Our tituation is altogether transient ; it is not the effect of war—it Is that of threatened war, and of the uncertainties which attend thitt menace ; and that which is most greatly dreaded by the Preach is —incertitud e "! This declaration obviously admits of two biter : pretations ; and it may be that the incertitude of France is to be terminated by the abandonment of her pretensions, as well as by the passage of the Pyrenees ! Can it be possible that the French 'Government is desirous of withdrawing, at the lust hour, from the "Vficuky"in which it is involved The rumours of an autograph letter from the King of SPAIN, entreating his 'loyal Brother Lou r s XVIII. to desist from hostilities, would almost warrant the indulgence of a faint glimmer of hope that even yet the peace of Europe may be pre aerved;--but, it woUld be idle to speculate on what is so exceedingly improbable ; and nothing 'but a positive declaration of pacific views from France would now justify expectations which we were amongst the last to relinquish ! rttEmot ruxus.—MARCII 31.

LFROM A CORRESPONDENT.] STOCK EXCHANGE, Half-past Twelve o'Clock.— In consequence ,of certain reports which were circulated yesterday evening respecting France and Spain having heel) discredited in the City, the Funds were rather depressed this morning.— Consols opened at 7-1-1, and are now 744- with a heavy Market. Some eminent Brokers have been selling largely, owing, it is said, to the arrival of an express from Paris. I have not learned the price of the French Funds as brought by this conveyance. One report is, that the new levy of .50,000 men of the con scripts for 1823 has been actually ordered. — Spanish Bonds, which opened this morning at 3044, have fallen to 29. f. New York Papers arrived this morning to the 11 th March. from the New York Daily Advertizer of the 10th March, M EXICO.—In a file of Havannah Papers we find letters had been received from Tampico to the Gth February, in consequence of Echavarri and Santa Anna. having united their forces, Iturbide, who had gone down again to Jalapa, fled precipitately to Mexico, with an escort of only '2 U men. He then issued a Decree, com manding, under pain of death, that all those who held the property of subjects of the Span4h Go vernment should immediately deliver it up. G uad lupe Hetuia had gone into the interior with forces, and at Tampico, and the other places on the coast to the North, they had declared against lturbide. The families that bad fled to the Castle of St. Juan de Ullon, for fear of an invasion of Vera Cruz, had returned in full confidence. A. pro visional Regency had been established in Calapa, whose Government was recognised by the Re. publicans until the Congress should be re-esta blished in Mexico. ADMIRAL OWEN'S SQUADRON.—The Selena, from Dominica, briny►s accounts of the arrival at Barbadoes, on the sth February, from England ; the object of the arrival of this squadron was not known, but there had been considerable manwu vering with them, and no little reconnoitering by the Eden. Extract of a Letter front the Agent to Lloyd't.at .the Cape of Good Hope, dated January 10. 46 By the arrival of his Majesty's ship Andra. vtache, commodore Nourse, last from De Lagoa Bay, we learn that his Majesty's ship Bttrracutta, and seven surveying vessels, had suffered much from the effects of the climate in the East Coast of Africa, and that Captain Cutfield of the for mer, and Captain Litclunere of the latter, were both dead, besides several Officers, and about sixty men." THE KIN©. Ilmoirrox, APRIL `2. —lt is with much concern we state, that his MAJESTY experienced a fresh attack of gout in his foot last night, which, however, was as slight as sudden, and, we have the happiness to add, that his Majesty was pronounced much better this morning. At this time, half-past 9 o'clock, r. St. the physician's report is equally favourable. A Council would have been held at the Palace to-day, but for the above event: its delay is not eicpected to exceed a day or two. BRIGHTON, Thursday, March 3.—Three p. m.— The slight bUt sudden re-visitation of gout in his Majesty we mentioned yesterday. It is with extreme satisfaction we this day add, that the promising symptoms of yesterday were not fallacious. The gratifying report to enquirers at the Palace this morning has been.—" Ills Majesty has had a good night, and is much better to-day." The Duke of YORK was often in public yesterday. ills Royal highness, who is again looking remarkably well, has beep in several of the streets to-day, though the weather has been cool, and, at intervals, damp. GIBRALTAR, MARCII B.—A Spanish squadron, consisting of the A•iu, of 64 guns, Cosi/do frigate, Arethusu corvette, and Aguita brig of war, ure to cluise in the Mediterranean; under the com mend of Rear-Admiral VACARO. Mr. CAPPER, the Superintendent of the Con vict Establishment, has reported to the Secretary for the Home Department, " that a vast number of the convicts, of late received on board the hulks, have brought with them, from the respec tive jails, such reports of had character, that but slight hope of reformation can be looked for by their detention in any establishment in this country."—On the Ist of January, 1822, there were 2,807 prisoners on board all the convict ships? since which period there have been received from the respective jails 2,200 (being 550 less than the year 1821.) During the year, 1,470 have been transported to New South Wales,' (being 550 less than the preceding year) ; 85 have been removed to the penitentiary ; 367 dis charged by pardon or otherwise ; 5 have escaped, and 49 have died ;—leaving 3,031 prisoners in confinement in the several depots on the Ist inst. SECOND EDITION SUN-OFFICE, Two o'Clock. We stated in a Second Edition of THE SUN of Wednesday last, that the FaEricit DECLARATION of WAR had been received by our Government. Yesterday was the day appointed for its dis cussion, with our Foreign Minister and the French Ambassador; and we can state from au thority that his Excellency and Mr. CANNING were closeted for two hours at Gloucester Lodge yesterday, on this important subject. \lre can also state, that the French Govern ment are exceedingly alarmed lest privateering should he allowed by the British Government, and by the probability that our seamen will volun teer in great numbers into that part or the Spanish service. These measures, we are well assured, the French Government is most anxious to pre vent ; and urgent representations have been made on the subject to the British Cabinet. There is not one word of truth in the reports respecting the letter said to have been addressed by the King of SPAIN to the French Government, and countersigned by Sir WILLIAM A'CounT for we positively know that the British Cabinet has no such information. IRELAND. STATE OE TUE COUNTRY. Conx, Attncx 27.—The amount of tire Peti tions for burnings, and other destruction of property, delivered in to the Clerk of the Peace yesterday, was 10,536/. 4s. 10d. Of this the sum of 0,6131. 17s. J. falls on the County at large, Petitions to that amount being over 100/. each. A notice was posted at Ballinamona Church on Sunday last, threatening one of the Churchwardens to burn his house and himself in it, if he persisted in collecting the parish cess ; even the Clerk of the church did not escape their threatening wrath. This week notices were posted on the doors of three of the tenants of Nicholas Whiting, of Mount Rivers t Esq. who re. sides in the parish of Aghabologue ' ordering them in the n ame of General Ra c k t o g i ve up their lodgings—they having taken them contrary to the rules. Mancit 29.—A notice from Captain Rack was posted on Sunday last, on the chapel door of lnchygeela, which was hit. mediately torn off by the Rev. Mr. Holland, P.P., who, in the most impressive manner, exhorted his parishioners on the folly and illegality of attending to such threats. During the late disturbances in the neighbourhood of Inchygeela, ibis Reve rend Gentleman has been must conspicuous and successful in bringing the deluded peasantry of his parishes' to a thorough sense of the calamities which rue sure to follow every breach of the public peace, and his exertions on the present occasion, it is hoped, will be attended with similar good effects. On the night of Wednesday, the 26th ult. the house of Rich ard Fitzgerald, Esq., at Muckridge, VIM attacked by a large number of insurgents, all armed, with their Laces blackened. They attempted to force into the house, both at the front and rear, but as it was well secured, and spiritedly defended, they failed to accomplish their purpose. After firing some shots they went off threatening furiously to pay Mr. Fitzgerald another visit in a short time. Military assistance was sent for to Youghal, and a party of soldiers were accordingly dispatched, but did not arrive till after the villains were gone. The military on returning passed close to the house of Captain Cotter, near Muckridge, who challenged them, and after They had answered military assistance,' from some misapprehension they were fired on from the house, and two of the soldiers were unfortun ately wounded, one slightly, the other rather dangerously. THE NASSUCK DI AMON D.—ln the course of the late war h amongst the booty taken mere several valuable diampshis and Ow jewels, but the most distinguished of the diamonds is of an inimense slie : it is said to weigh about 360 grains, or 90 carets, and its - shape is triangular. It hag, we understand, been valued at above silty thousand pounds sterling, and is now either at the India House or at Messrs. RUNDELL and Bat AG ES. Sir GEORGE BEAUMONT, who is now on his travels in Italy, has acquired, by purchase, the beautiful group of AlicuAEL ANGELO, represent ingMlST, the VIRGIN, and ST. JoaN. It is considered as one of the finest productions of the chisel of that artist. Dr. BAcoNT, of Gloucester, at the reqtiest of the relatives and trustees of the IateDr.JENNEIi, has undertaken to write the, account of the life of that distinguished charactor, and to arrange his numerous manuscripts for publication. • • The works carrying on at Sheernefis, have not, latterly, been sufficient for the constant employ. ment of all the prisoners belonging to both ships stationed therc: but as an early embarkation of convicts for NeW South Woks will take place at that port, the remaining number will, in all pro. bability, be about adequate to the future demand for convicts' labour. Mr. C. KEMBLY returned to town on Wednes day last, he was not accompanied by the widow of his lamented brother. Mr. BRUNTON, late Manager of the West Lon don Theatre, now holds the same situation at Exeter. Mrs. BuNN, who theatrical talents were justly admired at both the Patent Theatres in London, forms part of his company, which of course will be supported by those of his daugh ter, one of the best actresses Of ttke.day. CAUTION.---A NOVEL SWINDLING TRICK.-- Amongst the number of advertising money-lenders, whose tempting proposals appear in the public prints, is one who offers to procure the acceptances (to bills for moderate amounts) of firms whose respectability will insure their being discounted by the bill-brokers, upon the party for whose accommodation such acceptances ate- procured; paying a reason a bl e douceur of 5 pe r cent., and lodging adequate security, to be approved of, in the hand s o f a b an k er name d. Th e party apply ing for th e accommo d at i on being sa ti sf i ed, upon an interview at th e pu bli c tavern, With the names of the proposed acceptors, i 3 then directed to draw the bill, with which the advertiser tie parts for a short time, and on his return delivers it ov er t o t h e d rawer , w ith t h e proposed acceptance, and ma d e paya bl e a t t h e banker's on receiving th e d ouceur agree d upon ; and en gages, as soon as t h e secur i t i es are lodged a nd approved of, t o meet t h e d rawer again, if re quired, and get the bill discounted by his own bill broker. The sole object of this trick is to defraud the drawer of the douceur, for on going to lodge the securities, the acceptance proves to be a forgery,and the deluded sufferer learns that there have been numerous applications there, under precisely similar circumstances.

All the world are sleeping, Save the broken-hearted weeping, And the power eternal keeping This universal frame. The silent stars are glowing O'er a world where tears are flowing, And the mourner only knowing How beauteous shines their flame. The world are slumbering lightly, And dreams are flitting brightly, While God above us nightly The universe unveils : But they, whose tears are streaming, View the pure starlight gleaming Through darkness clearly beaming, With light that never fails.

DREADFUL Flat IN flints Houtoaat.—About ten o'clock last night It serious and alarming tire broke out at the house of Mr. Reeling, No. 89, High Holborn, haberdasher, and which in less then half an hour completely destroyed his house and valuable stock in trade. The front of the house fell outwards into the street, while some of the watchmen, and others, near At hand, were standing ill the front but they very fortunately escaped, with the exception of a few receiving some contusions. Although we never saw the tire engines and their attendants, aided by a plentiful supply of water, more promptly at their posts, such was the rapidity of the flames, that ; in addition to Mr. Meleing's house being entirely consumed, the .devouring element extended to the house of 'Mr. Howard, the pastry-cook, No. 88, and to that of Mr. Walker, the stationer, • No. 90, both of which, however, were saved, though not without being materially damaged.— The property of Messrs. Walker and Howard was partly removed to adjoining houses. On Sunday night last,, a youth of the name of Stratton, aged 16, in the service of — .
