The Foreign Market also has improved. Spanish Bonds opened at 36, and are now 361. It is reported that Sir ROBERT W SON is preparing to leave this country for the Peninsula. FOREIGN MARKET.—The most business is doing in Spanish Bonds and Colombia. One o'Clock—A report prevails of a revolution at Madrid and a change in the Ministry there. We had not time to trace the above to any official The ground assumed in the Speech of the King of FRANCE, as a justification of the intended attack upon Spain, has excited the astonishment and reprehension of all classes and parties in this country. Some persons, it is true, expect tha the Manifesto, or, Declaration of War, still to be issued by France, will enumerate some real or pretended injuries inflicted upon her by the Spaniards, as an apology for the outrage which '., she -is about to perpetrate upon a neighbour- IS ing nation. But nothing can now efface l' the impression which has been made upon 1 7' the public mind, that, if the war be undertaken, r... it wilt be one of the most unjust and indefen la p, sible that have arisen in modern times.

Frankfort Papers to the 19th ult. reached us this morning, but they contain no intelligence of importance. The Emperor of RUSSIA arrived at Warsaw on the 13th ult., on which occasion the city was illuminated. A Lisbon Mail arrived last night with Papers to the t 4th ult. The Notes of the Allied Powers on the affairs of Spain had been published, and excited some sensation, but not any serious appre hension of war. Details are given of recent events in Brazil, but which have previously reached this country by a less circuitous route. It is evident from the tone of the journals, that the hope of recovering Brazil is not abandoned. The new expedition for Bahia, consisting of between 2,000 and 3,000, was on board transports in the harbour ; and General Lutz no REGO, who by order of the Government was to go to Bahia, was on his way to the capital, where he was expected to arrive in time to sail with the expedition. In the Papers received by this packet, we do not notice any thing to confirm the statement brought by the Matilda, of disaffection existing among the troops on board the transports. PIRACY.—The following Billiwas reported to the house of Representatives by the Committee on Naval Af fairs, on Friday, read the same day, the first, second, and third time, and sent to the Senate for concurrence. An ACT authorising an additional naval force for the suppres sion of piracy. Sect. 1. Be it enacted by the senate and House of Represen tatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, ' That the President of the United States be, and he hereby is, authorised to purchase or construct a sufficient number of vessels, in addition to those now employed, of such burthen and construction' as he may deem necessary,- and to fit, equip, and man the same for immediate service, for the purpose of repressing piracy, and of affording effectual protection to the citizens and commerce of the United States in the Gulf of Mexico, and the seas and territories adjacent. Sec. 2.—And be it further enacted, That the sum of IEO,OOO dollars be appropriatea to meet the expenditure to be incurred as aforesaid, and paid out of any money in the Treasury, not otherwise nppropriated.—(ilmericari Paper.) ROYAL NAVY, &c. (From the Hampshire Telegraph.) PORTSMOUTII, FEB. I.—On Tuesday the Seringapatam. 46, Captain Samuel Warren, C. 13., and the Redwing, 10, Capt. Hon. George Trefusis, which sailed from this port (the Grecian cutter, Lieut. Cawley, in company), on the 26th or September last, arrived from the Havannah, whither, it ap pears, (as was then conjectured), their sealed orders, on being opened, directed them to proceed, for the purpose of exter minating the pirates harbouring in the island of Cuba. — Owing to the bad sailing of the Grecian, they did not ar , rive off Cape Antonio until the 21st of November, when they fell in with the Hyperion frigate, Capt. Lillicrap, proceeding to Jamaica with 82,000 dollars on board, and about thirty It is reported that the Duke MATHIEI: DE MONTMORENCY will have the Minisrry of the King of FRANCE'S Household, after the departure of the Marquis de LAtinisToN. A Letter from Augsburg states, that whatever may have been the secret resolutions adopted at Verona, the Sovereigns of Bavaria and of Wur temberg have resolved on the perfect maintenance of the constitutions by which the people in these countries are governed, as well as of the form of the Legislative Assemblies which are there established. The debates in the Chambers will still be public, and no restrictions whatever will be imposed on the liberty of the Press. The Grand Duchies of BADEN and HESSE DARMSTADT will preserve their Constitutions inviolate, after the example of Bavaria and Wurtemberg. His MAJESTY'S Speech having been settled at the Privy Council held at Brighton on Friday, it will this day be privately read to the Mem bers of the House of Peers by the Earl of LIVER root., and to those of the Commons by Mr. Se cretary CANNING. Yesterday, at two o'clock, a Cabinet Council was held at the Foreign Office, which was at tended by the LORD CHANCELLOR, Earl of liar. rowby, the Errl of Liverpool, the Earl of West morland, Mr. Peel, Mr. Canning, Earl Isitthurst, the Duke of Wellington, Viscount Melville, Mr. Wynn, Mr. Robinson, Lord Maryborough, and Viscount Sidmouth, who all remained in close deliberation till about half-past five o'clock. The Duke of Yoax is going on well towards recovery from his indisposition, which has been a violent inflammation on the chest, occasioned by a continued and increased cold. Yesterday Divine Service was performed to the KING'S Household at his Palace in Pall mall, b/ the Rev. Dr. &omen°. Mr. VANSITTART continues confined by inslis position, which was the cause of his not being present at the Cabinet Council yesterday. Frankfort Papers to the 25th ult. have been received, which mention the arrival of accounts from Athens of the 20th of November, stating that Unction' PACHA, with a considerable force had penetrated into Attica, and defeated the Greek troops under ODYSSEUS, near Dudhi, 12 leagues from Athens. The Greek Commander is said to have sustained great loss, and effected his own escape with a part of his corps with great difficulty. All the rest were either killed or taken prisoners. ODYSSEUS, in his flight, had the good fortune to capture the son of thouotin PAcIIA, who offered all the prisoners he had taken to procure his ransom, but this proposal was rejected by the Greeks. Provisions had been thrown into Corinth previously to this in cursion of the Turks into the Peloponnesus.— A dvices from Smyrna of the 13th of December say, that owing to a very strict system of police established by the PACIIA, the Greeks were living there in tolerable security. Advices were received on Friday announcing the acceptance by the Colombian Government of the stores and specie sent from this country by M. ZEA. The Sappho has, in consequence, been dispatched to Curaeaa, under convoy of a Co lombian vessel of war, to take her guns on board. It is added that the Government is perfectly sa tisfied with those supplies, which indeed have arrived most seasonably. An impulse of between two and three per cent. was, in consequence of this intelligence, communicated to the Colombian securities. The French fishermen and marketmen, who frequent this place, from the opposite shores of France, do not appear to be very sanguine parti zans in the threatened war between that country and Spain ; they prognosticate that it will lead to the setting-up of young BUONAPARTE in less than two years ; a sentiment, we are informed, very common among persons of this class of so. ciety in France,—(Portsmouth Paper.) prisoners, who had been taken out of a vessel suspected o acts of piracy. The ships anchored at Havannah on the 24th of November, and found the Pheailant, 13, Captain Clavering, which sailed on the 27th for England, via New York, after remaining there three weeks. On the 29th the Seringapatam, Redwing, and Grecian, sailed in company, to carry into effect the object of their orders. Anchoring between the Mora and Monillo Keys, on the fits day of December, they sent away their boats, which returned, unsuccessful, on the 11th. On arriving at the 'Havannah the next day, they found an Amen= schooner, which had ' just been plundered about sixty miles to leeward. On the 14th the Redwing and Grecian, and two boats from the Seringapatam, sailed in quest of the pirate, the mate of the American vessel acting as pilot. They returned without success. On the 29d his Majesty's ship Scout, 18, Captain Wigston, arrived, having on board eleven English and eight Frenchmen, taken out of pirate schooner, which she run on shore in the bay of Honduras. On the 24th of December, after having spent one month in unavailing efforts to discover and intercept these miserable but troubleiome marauders, the Seringapatam and Redwing sailed for England, and the Grecian, for Port Royal, she not being sufficiently seaworthy to hazard a return voyage ' across the Atlantic at this season of the year. The Scout was left to cruize on the coast of Cuba, previously to proceeding to Jamaica ; the Kangaroo, surveying vessel, had proceeded to Providence. On the 111th of January the Seringapa tam fell in with and supplied the Finley, of Liverpool, in great distress, her sails having been blown away, and her pro visions expended. On the 2bth the ships made Scilly, on the 27th passed the Eddystone, on the 28th anchored at Spithead, having been absent four months. It appears that much more has been made of the subject of piracy in the West Indies than the circumstances justified ; and that both Rear-Admiral Sir Charles Rowley, our Commander-in-Chief on the station, and the Spanish authorities in the island of Cuba, had done all that it was possible to effect to protect the trade and destroy the pi. rates. The Americans have suffered more in their trade than we have. The vessels, generally, in which these daring marau ders put to sea, and commit their depredations, are clipper boats, miserable schooners, and others, not larger than fishing vessels, which are not kept in an organized state fur this mode of warfare, but are made so by these daring fellows (of mixed nations), at the moment whenever a merchant vessel appears off their harbours and numerous creeks, 'of which it appears likely they can maize a prize. The boats of the Tyne, 28, Captain Godfrey, had been very actively employed in this ser vice : she had taken three pirates. Lieutenant Hobson had fel ' len into their hands in an unsuccessful attack, but they gave him up. Lieut. Allen, of the American navy, had been killed. We learn that his Grace the Duke of Manchester, Governor of Jamaica, arrived at Port Royal, from England, in the John Shand merchant ship, on the 4th of December ; and the Active frigate, Capt. A. King, with Commissioner Ross and family, on the Gth of December. The Active was to sail again in a few days, _for Vera Cruz, Havannah, and England. On Thursday morning an Admiralty messenger arrived here, with orders for the Senngapatam and Redwing to be refitted with all possible haste, to sail on their return (as is understood) to the Ilasminah, to join the squadron under Commodore Owen. They will be ready for sea on Tuesday next. It would appear that it was expected these ships would not leave the Havannah before the Commodore arrived out : he left Plymouth on the 24th Dec. The reason for reinforcing our squadron in the West Indies is, we are informed, to prevent, should it become necessary, the Isles of Cuba and Porto Rico from being taken possession of by any hostile force. It may not be uninterest mg to describe the force that is, or soon will be, collected in that quarter, consisting of one line-of-battle ship, five large frigates, 4 small frigates, and 9 sloops and brigs of war, viz.— Sybille, 46, Rear-Admiral Sir Chas. Rowley, K. C. B. Capt. Josh. R. Rowley ; Gloucester, 74, Cot, Sir Edward Owen ; Seringapatam, 46, Capt. Warren, C. B. Pyramus, 42, Capt. F.

This intention has not been mud upon until Monday last, when orders were received to fit up the magazines and other internal apartments of the foUowing ships, vi z . —Vi c t or y, 104; IVel lesley, 74 ; 74 ; and Trincomale frigates.

At Shithead—Seringapatam, Redwing. In the harbour— Queen Charlotte, Ramifies Albion, Briton, Ringdove, Pan dora, Trincula, Clinker, Pater. The Parthian, 10, at this port, is ordered to be prepared for somnussion. The Jupiter, of 80 guns, is fitting out at Ply mouth for the reception of Lord AMERST, who, together with his suite, will proceed in that vessel to the East Indies.— It is computed . that every arrangement will be completed in about a fortnight. The Jupiter has already taken in the greater part of her stores. The Reverend T. CALVERT, Nomiiian Pro fessor in the University of Cambridge, is appointed to the Wardership of Manchester. On Saturday last the Directors of the High land Society of London held their first Spring Meeting; WILLIAM M'GrtaavitAy, Esq. in the Chair.

Disappointment by interference of authorities prevented the battle between Moss, the Tinutan, and ISAAC }LEAD, taking place until Saturday. MOSS was matched by his patron Capt. Haskell, to tight any man 12 stone six pound, who bad never before fought publicly in a ring. Ilerd was a known good man from Hampshire. The battle took place at Eversley-green, flatus and it was one distinguished for out and out game. Tho men do' fed their castors into the ring at one o'clock, eager for combat. In the first round Moss missed a well aimed hit with the left hand at his adversary's nob, but he hit by and slipped. His adversary made a rush and floored him by a blow on the chest. 2. This round lasted eleven minutes. There was n• shift ' log, but each fought from the scratch and dealt out severe punishment. Moss had rather the best of fighting ; he floored his adversary by a flash bit behind the ear which melted the wax, and produced the claret in abundance. 6t04 on Moss. 3,4, and 5. These rounds were comparatively tame to the last.

Another game round of seven minutes duration, most de cidedly in favour of Moss who hit his adversary to a stand, and at last floored him for suilling. It was Newgate to a watch-box. Seven other rounds were fought ; in the Ilth, Herd made a firm and resolute stand, but his adversary was too quick .for hint • he dealt out punishment until he made a real blinker of - his adversary. The 12th round won Moss the fight, who hit out two of his adversary's teeth, and elosedthe sports. Both knapped severely, Mu.

ONEMoon Tying DESERvES ANOTIIER.—The English Government have lately sent over'certain Commissioners to pry into and report upon the frauds and abuses committed by the Distillers against the Revenue Laws of this country ; they have entered upon their labours, and have satis fied their employers that there was much to complain of in the management of distillation in this country ; how ever, as some little blame seemed to attach itself to the Irish Board of Excise and their officers, they requested, as a kind of set off, that three of 'their Surveyors should pro ceed with similar powers to England.. They accordingly selected three of great practical experience imd lynx-eyed observation, Messrs. Logan, Coffee, and Gill, who proceed ed to the neighbourhood of London, and in a short time have discovered such practices amongst the English distil lers, as leave the Irish distillers in a state of infancy as to that practical part of their trade, by which the duty to the King is - evaded, and their affectionate regard for the memory of the Queen is evinced.—( Ibid.)

The quantity of Corn which has accumulated during the frost is considerable, we have therefore a very full market this morning of all sorts of Orain.

" Is it not infamous to see that convict, John 11PDougal, of ship-sinking notoriety, walking about here like a gentleman , and advertising in the newspapers, for business as a general agent and accountant? When the ship arrived with him, he was brought ashore by the Governor's boat, separate from thr other prisoners, in plain clothes, instead of the convict dress (of yellow cloth) so as to save his feelings. Ire pretends that he has not a stiver in the world, and that he was preparing to send home documents to prove who were the guilty parties—a pust too late for himself however."--( Glasgow Courze,r.)
