Consols opened this morning at 958, and re main steady at that price, with little business do ing and no fluctuation. Greek has improved con 4iderably since Saturday afternoon ; but most of the little business done in both Stock Markets has been in Mexican, at 11 4 prem., which is lower than on Saturday. We have received the Paris Papers of Friday and the Moils of Saturday. They a re still chiefly distinguished by the parts they have re spectively taken relatively to the dismissal of M. de CHATEAUBRIAND. This event has brought the divisions which have long existed in the Royalist party to an open rupture ; and M. de VILLELE will perhaps have some difficulty in keeping his seat amid the storm of hostility with which he is and will continue to be assailed. But indeed there are some who think that the mice remonious ejectment of M. de CPIATEAUDRIAND from the Cabinet is nothing- more than a Minis terial juggle, played off, just before the proroga tion of the English Parliament, for the purpose of inducing a belief in this country that a more frank and liberal policy is about to be adopted by France than that which has hitherto distinguished her Councils. Theie is some ingenuity in this Conjecture, as the crea tion of such an impression in this country might tend to retard a decision on the South American question by his BRITANNIC MA- JusTy's Ministers. We cannot, however, not withstanding our habitual suspicions of French finesse, bring ourselves to think that the dismissal of CUATEAUBRIAND ii otherwise than real; nor do we think it very probable that the policy of the French Government will be materially changed by his removal. The French Papers give us no information respecting his successor ; but our Morning Post, we know not on what authority, states that it is definitively arranged that M. de VILLECE is to retain the porteleuille of Foreign Affairs and the Presidency of the Council,—that the Count LA. FoßosTs, one of Da Caz as's Peers, is to be Minister of Fi nance ; and that M. MOST EADER, late Mi nister in Switzerland, goes to the Foreign Affairs, as Directeur-General',. The Moniteur of the 10th contains the liisca's ratification of the Septennial Act, passed. by the Cham bers; and that of the 11th, the official pro mulgation of the new law relative to the Army. The Etoile of Saturday announces, on the au thority of the Austrian Observelr, that the Porte has dispatched several couriers to Bucharest and Jassy to regulate the final evacuation of Walla chia and Moldavia ; and tha t the CAPTAIN P.ACIIA had sailed from the Dardanelles into the Archipelago on the Ist of Maur, without any thing positive being known relative to his final destination. In a Supplement to the Quotidienne of the 12th inst. the high displeasure of the Duke of MODENA is announced against all Secret Socie ties, and Freemasons in particular, frith whom the enlightened Ruler considers to have ori ginated all those who have in view the total sub version of religious and civil authority. A Turkey Mail has brought letters from Con stantinople, dated o❑ the 10th ultimo. The fleet had proceeded into the Archipelago, but unless to relieve some of the besieged garrisons, it has no power, even for a season, to uphold the tot tering Otfoman empire in Europe. From Greece, of course, no intelligence has been received by this conveyance nearly so late as that already communicated in letters from Zante, dated on the 20th May, when General COLOCOTELONI was pressing the siege of Patras. The following letter from an Officer of the squadron blockading Algiers decisively disproves the statement lately made by the foreign papers, that the Naiad had captured an Algeriue frigate, off Gerventi, on the Ist of May ; that ship, it appears, then formed one of the blockading ships off Algiers : " Our force'off Algiers, at this moment, under the command of Sir HARRY NEALE, consists of the Revenge, 78; Glasgow, 50 ; Cambrian, 48 ; Active, 46 ; Naiad, 46 ; Ranger, 28 ; Weazle, 10 ; and schooner Express. The Sybille is daily ex pected. News having arrived here to-day, by the Weasle, from Marseilles, that the Bombs cannot be expected here for six weeks, we purpose distributing our provisions and water amongst the ships to be left here, and proceeding ourselves to Malta to refit, and thence, after displaying our flag on the coast of Italy, return to the blockading squadron, to await their arrival. The Cambrian accompanies us to Malta, and it is expected will shortly sail for England. A Dutch frigate and brig joined us this morning . : having stated their only intention to be that of endeavouring to get their Consul off, they have permission to communicate. A Neapolitan fri gate and French schooner are (having obtained our per mission) at aa anchor at Algiers—the latter in the Mole. Our blockade has been excessively well conducted, nothing hav ing either arrived or sailed without submitting to our search. The war is known to be very unpopular amongst the Al Brines, and is only prolonged on their side by the st u bb orn w ill of the Dey. It is now four years since he has stirred out of the forti fications inclosing his Seraglio, and during that time there has been as many unsuccessful revolts ; they yearly menace and besiege him about the time of the Hairam, but this wary old Mahometan having, by some masterly stroke of Turkish po licy, made his interests, and those of his Janisary Guards, coincide, all attempts to depose him have as yet proved abor tive. Neither is the war very popular with us—no honour, no prize-money, and, what is also very bad, no Italy. Matter is much in statu quo, gaiety rather increased by the exertions of Lady Neale, but her endeavours have been much retarded, by the absence of the Revenge." BERLIN, JUNE s.—The Bulletin of the Laws contain the Laws for the formation an d const i tut i on o f t h e Pro vincial Assemblies in the Provinces on the Rhine, and in West phalia. These Assemblies are to consist of four Estates, viz. 1. The formerly immediate Estates of the Empire. 2. The Equestrian Order. 3. The Representatives of the Cities. 4. The other Landholders, the Members of the First Estate, appear in person, and when prevented by parti cu l ar circum stances from attending in person, may appoint a member of their own families, or some Member of the Second Estate, as their proxy. All the other Estates appear by Representatives elected by themselves. The Bulletin of the Hanoverian Laws contains a Royal Proclamation relative to the Papal Bull concerning the endowment and boundaries of the ancient Bishoprics of !lel derbeim and Osnaburg :—His Majesty having carefully ex amined this Bull, and convinced himself that it perfectly agrees with all the arrangements and ne ,, ociations with the See of Rome upon this subject gives his Royal Assent to the Bill (be ginning with the words, " Impensa Romanorum Pontificum Solicitudo,") declares it to be binding on the Catholic Church in the kingdom of Hanover, and orders a copy of it in the Latin and German languages to be annexed to the Proclama tion and printed in the Bulletin of the Lawa.—Given at Carlton House, May 20. t is expected that the business of the House of Commons will be gone through by Friday, on which day the House will adjourn for a few days, to give the Lords time to pass the Bills before them ; so that the prorogation may be expected to take place about the 24th inst. On Saturday afternoon, aihalf-past three o'clock, the KING left his Palace in Pall-mall, in his travelling carriage and four, escorted by a party of Light Horse, for Windsor. Windsor Castle, Cumberland Lodge, and even the Thatched Cottage in Windsor Great Park, will boast an unusual number of distinguished visitors during this week, at the express invita t►o❑ of his MAJESTY, for the purpose of witness ing the sports at Ascot, where the KING and the Royal suite intend to be present on the usual great race days. A very strange epidemic disorder prevails among the rein-deer in the North of Sweden. It was at first thought by some to resemble hydrophobia ; but on the con trary, the poor animals, as soon as they are attacked, run at full speed till they meet with a running stream, into which they plunge and perish, to the great loss of the unfortunate owners, whose herds constitute their whole property. It is estimated that above 3000 rein-deer have perished in this manner. tf5i , ......„ 4 „, _ ..,,,, ... 43 te - Viv}i ; •,`Z, , - , :: -. "-Vii c .,,i f ,---,,0 .

WINDSOIL, JUNE 13 . —Yesterday afternoon, about six o'clock, his MAJESTY arrived at the Royal Lodge in the Great Park, in his travelling carriage - and four, from Carlton Palace, accompanied by Sir W. Knighton. His Majesty's pony phaeton was in readiness at the Lodge, and shortly after his arrival he drove about the . 'grounds ; - after which his Ma jesty dined at the Royal Lodge and drove himself in hi s phaeton down the Long Walk, and through the Little Park to the Castle, where he arrived, shortly after nine o'clock.

Royal Highness will entertain a number of distinguished visitors during the Races. ARRIVAL of His Royal Highness the DUKE of CLA RENCH at DEPTFORD. Yesterday, at twelve o'clock at noon, the Ro . yal Sovereign yacht, with his Royal Highness on board, arrived at Deptford, and immediately the Union Jack was hoisted from the Dock Yard, the Greenwich H osp i ta l , an d a ll th e Govern ment Offices in the nei r ghbourbood ; the example was followed by all the shipping in the . River, who gaily hoisted their colours. A number of persons were collected, who, on hear ing of the arrival of his Royal Highness, flocked to the water side, and all the boats on the River were put in requisition. The River then presented a most animating spectacle, and it was extremely amusing to see the clusters of boats rowing round the Royal yacht. His Royal Highness stood upon the quarter-deck, and seemed highly delighted with the manifestations of respect shewn by the people, and re peatedly bowed to them: At one o'clock Admiral Sir Richard Keats, Governor of Greenwich Hospital, came alongside in his barge, and was received by his Royal Highness on the quarter deck, to whom the Gallant Admiral _paid his respects. His Royal Highness was attended by Sir Ilenry Blackwood, Sir A. i Halliday, Captain Adams, Commander of the yacht, and seve ral other persons of distinction, after having partaken of a cold collation in the state cabin. His Royal Highness, at two o'clock, accompanied by Sir H. Blackwood, was received at the Dock-yard by the Commissioners and principal Officers, who escorted him so his carriage, which was then in waiting, and which directly drove off for London. _As his Royal Highness receded from the yacht to the shore, the crew gave three cheers, which were heartily re-echoed by the . assembled spectators.

Extract (From ra°Zettirer,CdiaaredwCaCrtohuariegernaj, Jura 10.) 1824. " Finding a great- disposition among our friends in Glas gow to commence a direct trade with this country, we em. barked from London with a brig fully loaded with dry goods to our address, and such is the speculative disposition of our friends, that another brig is now on her passage from Liver pool, following us. These are all flattering prospects enough were there an opening for trade here ; but we are sorry to say, that from present appearances, there is little hope of our being able to dispose of these cargoes to advantage " The resources of this country have been over-rated at home, and although, taking it in its extent, it is naturally rich, yet these riches are still in embryo, and likely so to remain, while the people continue of the same debased and indolent habits they at present possess. " The only hopes of improvement appear to be by the intro duction of industrious foreigners; but the illiberal manner they are looked upon, and the obnoxious laws existing against them, will always he a bar to their settlement with advantage to them. selves or to the country. " What a moral people you are in Jamaica, when compared to the debaucheries of the Republic, particularly in gaming and intrigue. " It is hoped that our Commissioners at Bogota will be able to remove the shackles at present existing against her foreign commerce, or every prospect of establishing a direct trade, mu tually advantageous, must be relinquished for the present. " Carthagena itself is a fine city, rather cool than otherwise, considering the latitude, and has an excellent harbour. It is also strongly fortified, tolerably well garrisoned, and is consi dered healthy. Its advantages, however, are by no means favour able in a commercial point of view, being situated in a part of the country lying entirely waste to an inimensedistance, and hav ing a difficult communication with the river Magdalena, the great outlet for the interior, and consequently for the produce of the country. The only articles brought in from the neigh bourhood are hides and . 'fustic, of an interior quality. The latter is current at twelve, and the former at two dollars, and even these cannot be produced in any quantity. Flour and pro. visions, and lumber of all kinds, are in no demand, and the place is overstocked with dry goods." The Duke of Yo►tK and the Duchess of GLOUCESTER visited the KING on Saturday.—On Saturday evening Prince Leopold, the Duchess of Kent, and the Prince of Leimingen, honoured the Italian Opera-house with their presence.— Yesterday afternoon, at three o'clock, the Duke of Clarence, attended by Sir Ilenry Blackwood, arrived at his residence in Stable-yard, St. James's, in his travelling carriage from Deptford, at which place his Royal Highness landed at twelve o'clock, having left Sheerness at six o'clock yesterday morning. Yesterday the Duchess of Kent, the Princess Augusta, and the Princess Feodore, attended Divine Service at the Chapel Royal, St. James's.—Prince Leopold at tended Divine Service yesterday, at St. Philip's Chapel, Regent-street.—Yesterday Divine Ser vice was performed to the King's Household, at his Palace in Pall-mall, by the Rev. Dr. Blom berg. FaitAct INTREPIDITY.-11 dashing young man was brought before Mr. DYER, the Sitting Magistrate at Marlborough-street, on Wednesday last, charged by Miss L. Denham, (laughter of Mr. Denham, Printer and stationer, 189, Regent-street, with stealing two valuable books. It ap peared in evidence, that the prisoner went into the shop, about half-past nine, on the 2Gth of May, and requested Miss D. to show him some Albums, as he wished to purchase one as a pre sent for a Lady; ho made choice of one, for which lie agreed to pay 21. 75., but seeming to recollect himself as he was taking out the money, said he wanted a purse, which was in the fur ther corner of the window, and while Miss Denham was in the act of reaching it, he ran off with two Albums, and although he was instantly pursued, he got clear off'. Search was imme diately made but he was not heard of till Tuesday evening, when Miss Denham was taking a walk with her two younger sisters, she met him in Cleveland-street, she immediately re cognized him, took bold of his arm, and accused him of the theft, and solicited several persons passing to assist in detain ing him ; but no one seemed willing to render her any assist ance ; she by the greatest exertion got him into a butcher's shop, the master of which ordered her out on pain of being sent to the watch-house, the young man immediately made an effort to make his escape, but Miss D. again seized him and detained him without any assistance for some time, when Scofield, the Police Officer, came up and conveyed him to the watch-house; lie was remanded till Saturday, when the following cases were brought against him. Mr. and Mrs. Dolby, of Wardour-street, swore to his having been at their shop on the let of May, and ordered 15 numbers of plays to be looked out against the even ing. When he called, he requested to have another number,. and while Mrs. Dolby was in the act of getting it, be ran o f f'. with the books. Mrs. Clifton, of Wardour-street, also swore . to the prisoner being the person who robbed her of a pairof handsome razors, three weeks since, in a similar manner. The prisoner is about 18 or 19, very fashionably dressed, and ap peared quite indifferent to his situation : he was • remanded till Wednesday for another examination. Mr. ROBERT GOURLAY, who made the assault on Mr. BROUGHAM, in the lobby of the House of Commons,remains confined in the prison -room of the House, in the custody of two messengers. lie was visited on Saturday by Doctors MUNROE and THURTELL, and they, after the meeting of the House on Saturday, had an audi e nce' of the Speaker in the Speaker's retiring chamber. Mr. G. had, on Saturday, prepared a petition to be presented to th e H ouse b ut i t was d ee med advis able to postpon e th e business till the meeting of the House this day. The conversation of Mr. G. ever since his confinement leave little doubt as to the st a t e o f hi s m i n d ; but it might be preju dicial to him to relate them now. MERCANTILE SHIPPING.

CORN EXCHANGE, Jr:rn 14. Thero were but moderate arrivals of all sorts of Grain last week, . This morning the quantities of Corn fresh up arp by no means considerable. Our millers are alarmed at the operation of the Grinding Bill, lest a considerable quantity of bonded Wheat should come in to the market for sale. The present accounts of the Wheat crops being very favourable, there has on that account been very little trade for Wheat to-clay, and the prices of the best samples are Is. 6d. to 2s. per quarter lower, and other qualities are nearly unsaleable, even at a greater reduction. Barley continues to sell heavily, on muds the same terms as this day se'nnight. Beans are full as dear as last quoted. Boiling and Grey Peas maintain last quotations. The quantity of Oats at market is not consi derable, yet the sale is so limited, that although the prices of last week are considered to be fully supported, the trade is not reported brisk. In the Flour trade there is scarcely any thing doing. Wheat, red, aid, 60s. 70s. ; new, 40s. 465. ; fine, 48s. 555. ; superfine, 60s. 635. Wheat, white, new, 465. 50s. ; fine, 52e.

CAP %L LorTT, Esq. lie died on the 26th \lay, at Montrallier, near Turin. Mr. Loift was twice married. His first wife was a daughter of the late Mr. Emyln, of Windsor. The surviving children of that marriage are, a son in the military service of the India Company, and a daughter. His second wife was a daughter of the late Mr. Joseph Finch, merchant, of Cambridge. By this marriage, Mr. L. had offspring., two daughters, who, with his widow, are in Italy, and a son,• now at Eton College.— Mr. Lofft, though a lawyer, was most liberal and consistent in his politics ; and though an author, a poet, and a critic, most ge nerous in his structures, and benevolent in his conduct towards men of genius and letters. If his feelings erred, the failing was s a e l l w v ays on es for suchtli se o length t' charity. ty time Few have nso o) ttn y d v is a t r i i nui s various sb lie ra c h branches t he e s i n o f ter y a h ll is b t history. Mathematics, r ns occupied classics, hispen, aeary music, period our to t criticis m, h li e latest hour, as his separate works, as well as numerous contributions , to periodical publications, will amply testify.-- The great Painter's advice was strictly followed by him—no day without a line. As a lawyer he was indefatigable, till he, in a great measure, abandoned this rugged road, to devote hint, elf to the Muses' " primrose path," at his seat, Trostan Hall, in Suffolk. Here he had, in his second wife, a lady of con siderable literary talent, " a meet helpmate." Ile was. a, sound scholar; and to the office of critic, he brought grear judgment, excellent taste, and a mind stored with an amaz ing share and variety of human knowledge..As a Poet, pas ticularly in the Sonnet, as witness his Laura in several volumes, and various criticisms on that subject, he was an enthusiast, and perhaps too fastidious and refined, but certainly not without genius and powers of versification. Unwearied in his own literary pursuits, he was not less so in assisting and fostering those of others. The encourage ment he gave to Bloomfield, and the labour he bestowed on the Farmer's Boy, may serve as one instance of many which might be adduced to prove the amiable disposition of hit nature. When to this laudable trait, we add, that in pri vate life, he was the very soul of sympathy, and urbanity, while in his public, he was a steady undeviating Patriot on the soundest constitutional principles ; we need advance no more to spew how much his loss is to be lamented, or how ill such a character can be spared in these shifting, trimming, and degenerate times. Were it more abundant, we should not so often have to exclaim, " Cu.s.torlia firma sit, ne insidice i;itruit in Urban."—( Morning Chronicle. ) COLONEL STRUTT.—This Gentleman, wlisse alarming accident we stated in our Paper of Saturday, had a good night on Friday, and was better on the following morning; but we arc sorry to hear he was not quite so well yesterday. His medical attendants, however, are under no apprehension what ever respecting his state, as no fracture has taken place, and confidently pronounce that he will experience no other incon venience than that arising from confinement and the disfigure ment of his face. Among the anxious inquirers on Saturday and yesterday, was her Royal Highness the Princess Augusta, who displayed such gracious kindness towards him when the accident took place. The Colonel's escape was mos t providen tial, as the horse was v i o l ent l y ki c ki n g all the time his worthy b a Ge who master was on the groun d , an d h a d nea rly rolled over him. He was in the first i nstance lif te d up by his amiable and interesting daughters (wh o i n an i nstant a li g hted from their horses) aid e d p at the time ; after which im.. mey entlmandiately ensued the was hum a ne ng a nd laudable conduct of the Princess Augusta as stated in our last, and whi c h so justly en. deared her Roy a l Highness to every beholder of the alarming scene.

The unfortunate man was well known, and bore a most honest charac tr. He had, however, associated with a female for some years, which at length caused him at times to yield to intemperance. Two or three days since he was informed that he could no longer be suffered to sleep in his lodgings, and he actually was oblig e d t o wa lk t h e s t re ets.
