The p ra y er of etitio n .s altogether so reasonable, that it c ' al ung be re r ose a w i t h out i mp lyi n g in the French G r ernment a most culpable inattention . to the cial interests of France; and, if complied th, sanctions th e principles of revolution , a " brings Austria, Russia, and Prussia, m °lle concent r at e d power upon her. Which f the two alternatives will France take ? T o • - wise and efficient Government, with a real ;tad hearty desire to promote the welfare of the " In trY it governs, the alternative presents no dif fl'ultles ;but the case is far otherwise when a Go vernin?nt is en t ang l e d b y i ts re l a tions with foreign , tyres, and those relations bear ‘ll character that Prevents their exhibition to the public eyes and such, we think, is the case of France. The doctrines, the principles, the practical govern. Inen t Of Russia and Austria are hostile to liberal Politics, and so far are hostile to the real and hest.Policy of the French Cabinet; and when the lets of that Cabinet ever since the restoration of the Bourbons are considered, it will be seen how the real and best interests of the people have be en sacrificed where they at all clashed with the Previous disposition of the Sovereign, or the 10", of the persons to whom that Sovereign had Committed the care of the Empire. The ' hvasi an'of Spain irrecoverably fixed the prin.. ei Ples by which the French Cabinet would from that time forward be guided, and bautill France to t he Holy Alliance with the strongest bo nd. ti Eld er these circumstances we cannot very lon g '' doubt what will be the issue of the Petition, and th e remarks of the Etoile (a demi official paper) clearly shew the nice distinction (not to call it a Paltry subterfuge) that will be adopted in order to say,. -- appearances with the country, and to per sist in the conduct that has been hitherto put-- stie d. This distinction is, that the question is one Politics not of commerce. The Government of Tra nce affirms that the intervention of commerical agents is not reqUired ; that permission to trade to the South American ports has been already ob tained/ and squadrons are now in the South Sea and the Gulf of Mexico, for the protectiont 14 ertch Commerce. This may be true, but y 't aa means shows that resident commercial agent s are not wanting. The contrary has been the established pr:uciple ,for. ages, .Amd.have we 2.11 this t i me b een golng OU. wrong and inciiriing: useless eitpence ?' Surely riot"; Tor"tlie * r i n d war readily' sitggesCa tliOnSaiid 'occasions, in 'which the assistiit*e . of accredited resident conirnercia ragetrtsi is required. The prinission to trade was obtained from:Spain, from a country whose authority 1ia.41. been renounced, whose power has been annilit.E' lated ; so that the very trade 'of France is a serious: offence to the South American Governments, a. positive defiance thrown -in their teeth, and an utter disregard of ,their hiws and Constitutions. — If this is so, the distinction vanishes ; it never' had any real foundation, and plain common sense. revolts at the idea of treating a question of com merce alone and distinct from a questi.On of policy. They are intimately connected, and Cannot be, separated. England has takeh up the question as a question of policy and cornme'rce,and in con sequence her trade. with South America is per milled, the trade of France is - ba; - ely tolerated. The value of . the trade the - French. Government is thus trifling with may be imagined from- a disclosure hi the Petition, viz. that BoOdeaux and Havre alone sent- 50. ships to South America last year with French produce and manufacturei to the value of 33 millions—besides GO ships to the ' ports -of Cuba and ; whereas '2OO ships for Martinique, G uada loupe, Newfoundland; Cayenne, Senegal, and Pondicherry, have not exported, half the vaine. ft appenrs by the Paris Pai)ers of Monday that e departure of the Emperor of AusTitit for Italy was to take place on, the 7th instant ; and among our extracts is a letter from Milan, dis closing some information respecting the intended Congress o Sovereigns in that city. The Em peror of 'lttYssiA and the King of PausstA are expected there ; and the King of NAPLES will, at the earnest request of his Imperial relative, also be present at the Congress. It is believed that the visit of Prince de METTERNICH to Paris was undertaken to prepare the way for the confer ences that are to take place at Milan, which, it is said, will embrace, not only the affairs of Italy, but also the most complicated and impor tant interests which, now occupy the attention of Europe. The Toile gives a translation of the tnessage of the Vice-President SANTANDER to the.Colotn- bian Congress, and says, " after reading this messa o oe in which we remark wisdom ) modera. - tion, and dignity, what becomes of the virulent declamation against the French Ministry .for not having anticipated, or at least followed England, in recognizing the . independence of Colombia'" FRENCH FUNDS.—PARIS, APRIL 11.—Five pQr Cents. opened at ler2f. ; closed at lO2f. 10c. ;- Bank Stock, 2,963 r. ; Neapolitan Five Cents.

Frankfort Pnpers to the Bth ingtant arrived this morning, but their contents are not of any importance. A Notice has been issued by the Beard of Commerce at Embden, calling upon all Masters of East Friesland vessels, which, since the year ISI. 5, have made voyages to and from East Friesland and the ports of the Nether lands, to produce their receipts for the Bork= light-house money paid by them to the several Netherlands' offices, in order that the amount may be refunded to them by the Government of the Netherlands, this money having been levied by mistake on the ships of East Friesland. The Allgemeiae Zcitung of the 6th April, con tains no political news, or any thing worth notice except the foilou;ing article respecting the Seces sion of some Roman Catholics to the Protestant Church : UPTER AUSTRIA, 3.lAucn 20. The Leipsig Literary ' gazette, No. 010, Dec. 1824, says, that at Gallneukirchen, nearly 400 per Sons have gone over to the Protestant Church, and ate incorporated in the parish of the Rev. M. Kotschy at Efferding. We can contradict this statement With this assurance, that it has indeed happened at ,Galineukirchea and in the neighbourhood, that several - Missionaries,. called Boosnians, from their famous Clergyman Boos who led thern astray, were disposed to separate from the Roman Catholic Com munity, and that according to the laws crt toleration in force here, this secession was allowed them; but after the termination of. the'religious instructions which the law prescribes, only 14 of these visionaries declared their intention of going over to the Protestant Church, and not one of these persons is incm.P3- rated among the parishioners of M. Kotschy at .Efferding, or is likely to be so in future. The Nuremberg Correspondent of the 6th instant informs us that M. SCIILATTER, who was appointed by the Canton of Berne to examine th e experiments made at Eglisau, find sa l t b y b or i ng , bus theim, and Biel, to reported that little if any can be found there, and even supposing it could be procured in sufficient quantity, that it would be more advan t a geous for Switzerland to p urc h ase i ts supp li es of this ind is p ensable ar ticle from Wirtemberg than t an d Baden, as hereto fore, o establish salt-works within its own country at an enorrii ()us expence• "file decisio n o f the Swiss Can. tons is r 1,4 stated ; but we Live ru,son to Lo.- . iieve that Styitzeriand is .a convert to tl.e sound. principles of trade - promulgated by this coon try, which are making their •wav throughout a grvat part of _Ott: continent, ..11d that she will ad.opt. the judicious advice or -51.
