reduction of the fifth of his income. How dif ferent was the treatment of different classes of French citizens. The emigrants had their pro- Perty confiscated by revolutionary violence ; but the emigrants were now indemnified at the ex- Pence of the nation. The public annuitants suffered from an act of similar violence, in losing tyro-thirds of funds which they had lent to Go vernment, and which Government had pledged itself to repay ; but, instead of meeting with in demnity, like the emigrants, they were now cum- Pelted to endure a second robbery. The accounts from Snain are silent as to the state of the KING'S health ; but the sufferings of lang continued illness do not tend to mitigate hi?* MAJESTY'S persecution of the Constitu tionalists, whch is still carried on with unabated rigou r . The secret society of Royalists, known by the denomination of the " Exterminating Angel," had, under the influence of the Monks, resolved ❑pon a general massacre of the subdued Party in Catalonia ; but the execution of this atrocious design was prevented by the arrest of the priestly incendiaries who had planned it. In t>tremadura, the Prior of Magazela had ordered the arrest of thirty'-four inhabitants of a small town, containing only about three hundred in the ' w hole. The populace are worked up to a state of frenzy by the Ecclesiastics, who ascribe all the misery of the land to the displeasure of Di- Ihie Providence because the Ncgros are suffered to live. Advices from Greece confirm the total defeat of the rebels and the restoration of public tran- LONDO and ZATurs are taken, and have been conducted to Anatolico ; CoLoco l'itoxt's party are dispersed, and the Greek Go 'verornent has now only to attend to its prepara tions for the fifth campaign. A . letter from Turin expresses an opinion that a milder system is about to he adopted towards t hose persecuted men whose generous impru (4uce drove them to attempt the amelioration of the Piedmontese Government in 1821. The l ate Xing of SARDINIA, who chose rather to ab dicate the throne than to occupy it on conditions o f Which his conscience disapproved, had shown t owards them at his death a forgiving kindness, ' wh ich accorded well with the intrepid honesty of his life; and as lie could not grant them an 4 , 41 "tY for their rebellion against his person, t h i 13 '''' 1 3T recommended them to the clemency of 3 811Ct eSSor. This recommendation is stated to b e seconded by Prince CARIGNAN, who at first lost all influence by placing himself at the head of the insurrection, but who has now recovered the consequence due to the heir apparent by be coming the hero of legitimacy in Spain.

The following is the substance of a long De cree in the Moniteur for the regulation of horse ra ces. The amount of the prizes, and even the rate of the horses' speed, are fixed by authority. "A Decree, i n 29 art i c l es , i ssue d b y t h e Mi n ister of the In terior, contains the regulation for the horse-races in the different Parts of the kingdom. The races are to be in eight districts, ll arnely—Paris, Le Pin (Orne), St. Brieux, Strasburg, Li moges, Aurillac, Bordeaux, and Tarbes. Pour priz es t o h e ,o.iven to each race. There are also to be three Royal prizes. The ordinary prizes 1,200 to 2,000 francs ; the three Royal prizes, 3,500, 5,000, 6,000 francs. The first these to be run for at Aurillac, th other two at Paris. The ( rses must run at the rate of 550, 6OO, and 650 metres per according to their age.

Majesty the Emperor has issued a proclamation, con t4i n ig the estates of the kingdom of Poland to assemble for the closerd general Diet, which is to year on the 13th of May, and to , on the 13th of June, this . The proclamation con nes in the following terms i— bei!,senators and Deputies,—Two Diets have already been 4 . 1 , 11 That of 1818, guided by a spirit of concord and har oy, promoted by wise laws the welfare of the kingdom. That iti2o which spent its valuable time in useless disputes, has . _ thha_rdlY left atrace of its labours. This will teach you to avoid tii con sequences of discord, and the delusion of mistaken self i4,,e; Faithful t o your vocation, you will discuss with temper ' lm portant subjects to be l a id before you, and, warned by 4 Deli trence, make ; use the third time o f the dearest rights it ed to you, with that love f or th e genera l goo d, which , D , o 7otless an i mated you all, and will entitle you to the thanks of ttr country men . t h e Protection yo H ou of our Royal favour, we recommend you to eaven `'ALEXANDER, Emperor and King." Another Proclamation is as follows : at : t ; Vi r e, Alexander &c., Faithful to the patern a l sentiments o titentions which induced us of our own free will t o g i ve a oriztufion to our subjects of the kingdom of Poland, in t o o ,_. to give to all classes of people what is so necessary i n ,ut,lr welfare, peace, union, and concord,--desirous of remov all;Ze dangerous abuse which one article in the Charter has licity.caused, and may cause again —considering that the pub ot the debates in both Chambers has induced the speakers to );;":vtchf:ither of an ep h emeral popularity than of the public good, clamed the deb ates d egenerated-into empty declamations, cal to destroy the expected unanimity, and to banish the tranquillity and' decorum which should prevail in every im portant deliberation—desiring to cure the evil in its source, to prevent the necessity of all influence in elections and opinions, and to cause our subjects of the kingdom of Poland to enjoy all the benefits which the Charter accords to them, we hive resolved to fortify our work, by altering, by means of an additional article, one point of the regulations which experience has Proved to us to be highly detrimental. We have therefore decreed as follows : " The sittings at the opening and close of the Diet, and those in which the Royal sanction of projects of law is declared, shall be public as hitherto. " In the elections of Committees, and in every discussion and debate in the two Chambers, they always form themselves into a Special Committee. " This article forms an inseparable part of the Charter. " Czarskojeselo, Feb. 13. " ALEXANDER." The Jour►►al of St. Petersburgh denies the statement iu the French Papers, that a treaty has been concluded between Russia and Spain, by which the latter power was to receive military aid from the former in exchange for the cession of the Balearic Islands. The Russian journalist assures his readers, that " since 1814 the Russian Cabinet has concluded no treaties but those which have contributed to the restoration of general peace which all Europe desired ; and its policy is confined to the maintenance of those principles which, in concert with the Allied Courts, it has so often and so formally sanctioned by its declarations and its measures." The Nurcmburg Correspondent of the 17th instant, arrived this morning, from which we make the following extracts : CASSEI„ MARCH 16. On the 14th in the afternoon his Highness the Duke of Saxe Meiningen, who is betrothed to the Princess Maria of Hesse, arrived in this city and was received with great ceremony. MUNICH, MARCH 14. The first sitting of the Chamber of Deputies took place to day. The Minister of Finance, Baron Von Leichenfeld, gave a very detailed statement of the public revenues and expendi ture for three years; after which the question of the printing the journals of the proceedings in the Chamber was eoui dered. Mr. llacker, the Secretary, having barely alluded to the necessity of - publishing the proceedings which had been already acknowledged, proposed to make a contract with a bookseller who should engage to have them printed on the second day, at a certain price per sheet, and to furnish 300 copies for the Deputies, Public Officers, &c. at half the price. A Member asked how the Journals should be com piled, whether the speeches are to be inserted at length, or only an analysis of their contents. The first had been done in 1319 and 1822, but the printed Journals had been thus made very dear. However, as he thought it advisable that the proceed ings should be sufficiently letailed, he proposed that Govern ment should bear half the expence. Another Member ob served, that the question was not the advantage of the pub licity of the proceedings, which any body who understood the nature of Representative Constitutions considered as an essential part of them ; nor was it the form in which the journals should be drawn up, which the Chamber would itself determine, who would know how to preserve dignity in its pro ceedings, and avoid diffusiveness in its journals. This last point would be attained by Members refraining from making useless speeches. This Speaker approved the proposal of Mr. Hacker, only he would wish the Members of the Chamber which ought to set the example of economy, should pay for their copies out of their allowances ; because if they would not buy their own commodity, other persons would be still less disposed to pur chase.—Mr. Hacker's proposal was adapted. Jamaica Papers to the 9th February arrived this morning. They do not contain any accounts from the South American States : and the only articles of interest are the following relative to the resignation and the embarrassed state of the affairs of Mr. MUIRIIEAD, the Receiver Ge neral of Jamaica : ST. JAGO DE LA VEGA, JAY. 29. It Is with extreme concern that we publish the notice concern ing the resignation and embarrassments of the Receiver-Ge neral, which we fear will occasion loss to many individuals. There is, however, reason to believe that the public credit will not be affected. This information, which we annex, only reached us about an hour before our Paper usually goes to press. TO THE HONOURABLE COMMISSIONERS OF THE PUBLIC ACCOUNTS. GENTLEMEN—We have this moment received a letter from R. B. Muirhead, Esq., Receiver-General, resigning that office, by reason of his private difficulties arising from improvident Loans, and undertaking Executorships. We represent the present Lessee, and have great satisfaction in believing, from Mr. Muirhead's statement, that his embarrassments will have no influence on public credit ; for we have no doubt that under any enquiry there will be found in the public chest every shil ling which can be claimed from the Patentee. We have the honour to be, &c. F. SMITrT, G. VEDAL, A ttornies to the Lessee. In the Jamaica Courant of the Bth February, there is a very long statement of the meeting of the check-holders of Mr. Muirhead, in which it appears that his deficiency is about 80,4521. Though the Committee has with great anxiety and earnestness endeavoured to obtain from Mr. Muirhead a clear idea of the extent and nature of his actual losses, and the real state of his affairs, the information received from him is alto gether vague and unsatisfactory; Mr. Muirhead having ex pressed himself to be unable, under six weeks or two months, to furnish any other statement than what he has now given, from his never having kept regular books of accounts, but merely me morandums, and those very imperfect, and his own and public accounts being completely blended and greatly in arrear.—The meeting was then declared by his Honour the Mayor to he dissolved. WESTMINSTER MEETING.—As we have to-day given in another part of our Paper a report of the Proceedings of this Meeting of yesterday, and as the topic chiefly brought forward is now employing the deliberative wisdom of the Legis. lature, we have no occasion to animadvert on the subject at present. That many of the respect able inhabitants of Westminster were present, we, have no doubt, particularly as the majority attended more to the temperate' speeches of Messrs. BURDETT and llonilousE, than to the inflammatory harangues of Mr. HUNT, and dis missed the latter with general marks of popular displeasure. The Duke of Yong transacted business yes terday with the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHE.. QuEn., in Downing -street. The Earl of BiLMORE, who has been seriously indisposed, we are happy to state, is getting better. The official documents, books, together with the furniture, &c. of the Council Office, White hall, adjoining the Treasury, were finally removed on Thursday to the temporary Council Office at t h e en d of Whitehall-place, on the right hand side, of which place the official business connected with the Council Office will be transacted till a new Council Office is built. -)..i."&f74„. , V4: 6 ---" , c•-' ( - 3-.3i , • -.!,,,-.., .4,, cw ; " (<Av:-..• 4, ; 4- -.4 g-7.: .—, V: --.

They were all attired in new clothing, and were admired by every on e f or t h e i r or d er an d regularity of liscipline, their clean and healthy appearance, and ruddy countenances. JEWS HOSPITAL. The Eightenth Anniversary of this Charitable Institution, the objects of which are to support the aged and to instruct the children of the poor of the Jewish persuasion was cele brated yesterday. Shortly before four o'clock the Duke of SUSSEX arrived at the Hospital, Mile-end, accompanied by the'. Hon. Washington Shirley. He was received by Joseph Cohen, Esq. Vice-President; M. A. Goldsmidt, Esq. and Benjamin Cohen, Esq. Vice-Presidents. After inspecting the annual accounts of the Institution, and going over the house, his Royal highness attended Divine Service in the Synagogue of the Establishment. The Royal Patron, President, Vice-President, and Officers of the Establishment, then proceeded to the City of London Tavern, where upwards of 200 of the Friends of the Institution sat down a little after six o'clock to a splendid dinner. After the cloth was removed the usual Hebrew Grace was given. The Duke of SUSSEX then proposed the first toast—" his Majesty, God bless him." Drank with three times three, and the most enthusiastic applause. Air, " God save the King," the whole company joining in chorus. The " Duke of York," and the rest of the Royal Family having then been drank, the children entered the room, the Stewards preceding the girls and the boys bearing specimens of the neatest workmanships, in boots, shoes, mahogany chairs, and cabinet-work. They were drawn up round the tables, and a sweet little girl of about eight years of age, delivered an Ode addressed to the Patrons of the lnstitutron with much simpli city and feeling. The Duke of Susszx then described the benefits which the Institution was likely to produce, and had produced. His Royal Highness addressed part of his speech to the children, with evidently great effeet. Several toasts were now drank, after -which the Royal Duke called for the Reports of the Treasurer. In the interval of their being produced, Mr. Braham sang the " Rose and the Lilly," accompanying himself on the piano in his usual exquisite style. The Reports were then read, there were four, and the aggregate amount of the subscriptions was not less than 1,2451.

STAG BUNT. EnrolITON, MARCH 23.—Little John, to a numerous field, was again turned out, in the neighbourhood of the Devil's Dyke, on Monday, and afibrded pleasant diversion. The chase was briskly continued for about forty-five minutes, but without any thing very peculiar in the progress of it to challenge de scription. The panting animal having, by a species of serpen tine route, reached New Shoreham, bolted into a blacksmith's shop there, and entered into a frie n dly a lli ance w ith V u l can , who closed the mouth of his smoky cave, and effectually shel tered him from the further pursuit of his enemies. Shoreham was in an agreeable uproar on the occasion. Robin Hood is des tined again to take the field to-morrow. DRURY-LANE.—The tragedy of Brutus was last night represented for the first time this season. Mr. KEAN resumed the part of Brutus, a part written for him, and adapted to his pecu liar talents, and in which therefore he is more successful than in the general province of the tragic drama, or as " the representative of SHAYSPEARN'S heroes." W ALL 4CK, who is really the best tragic actor at this theatre, at present, gave unusual prominence to the part of Titus, and Mrs. BuNrr was powerfully impressive in that of Tullia. At the end of the play there was a general call for Mr. KEAN to announce the future performance, and that Actor, who was hissed off the stage a few weeks ago, was heard with attention,and dismissed with the warmest applause!! ! MR. SOANF.'S MUSEUM.--,-The pleasure which a view of this most interesting assemblage of va luable rarities afforded to so great a number of this gentleman's friends on 'Wednesday, and the anxiety which many otherS have expressed to en joy the same refined , gratification have induced him to open it again to-morrow evening. No thing could pass off more correctly than the for mer occasion, and i never was th ere a more cor dial concurrence n the feelings o f p l easure universally manifested by the numerous company present.

[From the Liverpool Courier, March 23.] We are indebted to Capt. ROLSTON, of the Hellespont,whic`i arrived yesterday, after a remarkably quick passage, from Smyrna, for the following account of a desperate rencounter be tween the boats of his Majesty's frigates Cambrian and Serirg apatam and a piratical vessel, in the Guiph of Vola : " I transmit a statement of the attack made by some Greek pirates on the boats of his Majesty's frigates Cambrian and Seringapatam, on the 30th Jan., in the Guiph of Vola, accord ing to a description given by an Officer of the Hellespont. " Having struck on a rock off the island of Skaltrope (in Negropont), we anchored in the Gulph of Vola. The next day we saw a Greek brig boarded by two Scamparuras at the dis tance of two or three miles. A boat was ordered away'to speak to the brig, and was informed by her crew that these boats had been pirates, who, as soon as they per ce i ve d our s hi ps at anchor, made off. The boat then returned, and orders were given to both ships to man the boats; eight in number, and go in search of them. After having rowed 15 or Hi miles up a gulph, the Seringapatam's cutter descried one (the largest of them) and gave c h ase ; came u p, an d were i n t h e act of laying in their oars, when the pirate fired into the boat, and killed two men on the spot, and wounded one officer and four men. She then dropped a -stern, waiting until the other boats came up. They then boarded her, and having put all to the sword, except one man, she was taken, so desperate were they before they would surrender. The Cambrian's boat then attacked the other boat, and carried her, -with the loss of two men killed and six wounded, one among the latter of which is an officer. Out of 70 men, which was the force of the pirates, only seven were made prisoners, they rather pre ferring to die than to surrender. Six of them were wounded, and the other, who had jumped overboard during the scuffle, was taken out of the water, having been swimming for ten minutes, and so desperate were these fellows, that this one even snapped his pistols at the marines, although surrounded by an armed force. It appears that this gang had followed this trade for some time, and made the haunt of a small island near Negropont.' " The Cambrian intended sailing on the lfith of February for Malta, to heave down, and takes the prisoners • with her. One of , the wounded seamen died at Smyrna, and two more were in a precarious state." THE MARKETS. CORN EXCHAN9E,.MARmx 25. The arrivals of all sorts of Grain this week are inconsiderable. The Wheat trade is dull to-day, as there is no disposition in our millers to make purchases, and prices may be considered rather lower than Monday. In Barley there is very little. doing. Beans and Pease are unaltered from Monday. Oats find sale with readiness at rather better terms than last quoted, as the quantity decreases.
