Vistula, and is encamped near the village of Poroneek, half a league from the city. It is affirmed, that the change in the command of the army was ()Wing to the opinion expressed by Prince Radzewill and 'General Wier rumba, the head of tile Moderate party, that enough had been done even for the military honour of the Poles, and that, considering the impossibility of longer resisting the Russian powers, the wisest course would be to enter into negociationa. Tire present Commander-in Chief was of a different npinion, and the Poles, considering the intrepidity with which he had fought at Dotre, proclaimed him Gene ralisahne. Prince Radeewill, General Wiessenhnf, and three other Generals laid down their commands, and were suspended from their functions. The Polish Government has given orders to form magazines on the road to Silesia, which indicates that the army will retreat in that direc tion ; the weather is very bad. The Vistula has risen to an extraordinary height, and the roads are impassable, ex cept the causeways. Hence it is probable that the military operations of both parties will experience delay for some time to come. BERLIN, MARCH 11.—The .States Gazette gives the following news of the 4th and ?th March :—" The Polish army has hastily gone by way of Sochazew and Goldlrin towards Gostynise. Provisions are becoming dear at War saw ; a bushel of wheat already costs sight dollars. The provisions and forage are taken by force frost the farmers. The Cracovites infest the country along the frontiers of Lithuania. The Russian General, Tricktri, has taken measures to surround and snake Them prisoners. Polish functionaries, in the environs of Mariambel have gone to that town, to renew their oath of allegiance to tte m peror Nicholas. From P;.,m e Polish ropo'rfs, it should seem that a Polish corp.; still rernaltra 'on the right bank of the Vistula, betweeis Grochow and Praga. It was af firmed at Warsaw that the Russians had left Lublin." BRUSSELS, MARCH is reported that it is in tended to call an extraordinary meeting of the Congress. W' hear also of diplomatic communication; tb the Regent. M. Bresson set out this morning for Paris. General Nypels also left Brussels this morning for Louvain. A fine battery of six twelve-pounders arrived here yes terday from Tournsy ; it to intended for the frontiers to wards Maestricht. On the 15th, seine heavy cannon and several powder waggons left the trees port, at Ghent, for the frontiers of Dutch Flanders. A letter of the Chevalier de Wanties, commanding the troops on that line of Zealand, dated Heydinge, 14th March, announces, for the satisfacticn of the proprietors of Polders, near the sluices of Capetulen Dam and La Ma delaine, that he bad made an arrangement with the Com mander of the Dutch troops to keep the waters continually at a proper height. An ad - dress, signed by nearly 200 officers, of General Daine's corps, was presented yesterday to the Regent ) as a testimony of their attachment to the General, and their confidence in his skill., A new battalion of troops of the line arrived here yes terday. BRUSSELS, MARCH decree of the Regent, con sidering the financial difficulties of the country, reduces the salaries of persons holding civil offices. Count d'Aerschot, who is appointed Minister Plenipo tentiary from the Regent of Belgium at the Court of London, set out yesterday evening for his destination, ac companied by M. Jules Van Praet, as Secretary of Legation. It is said that the Congress will be convoked for the 4th of April. Gen. Daine arrived at Brussels yesterday. A petition in favour of General Mellinet was circulated yesterday in the city. The Communes of Tramieres, Jemappe, and some others, have been condemned by the Tribune of Mons to pay 125,000 florins damage to M. Degorge, This sentence, passed by virtue of the law of the IQth Vendemiare, year four, may he enforced by military execution. The news of this sentence has excite l frrsh agitation in those communes. " We sari affirm (says L'Emancipation) that the most serious preparations are making against a speedy renewal of hostilities."--Brussels Papers, Match 19. `WARSAW, MARCH '7.—The Warsaw Gazette contains a letter front Radow of the 27th of Februroy, which says that the scythe-bearers, commanded by Roman Soltyk, had entered that town, and that during the last ten day. sometimes Russian, sometimes Polish patrols, had ap peared in the environs. The National Government, in order to remain in con stant communication with the Commander-in-Chief, and to secure the regular distribution of provisions to the troop', has appointed Count Buinski its Commissioner at t head-quarters. On the 2d the Government issued a proclamation to the Polish army, thanking it for its bravery in the sanguinary battles of the 19th and 25th, and encouraging it to perse vere in the new exertions that await, and not to give way to any doubts or fears, as the Government chosen by the representatives of the people will never separate from the army, but share all the fortunes of war. In a proclama tion addressed to the nation by the Diet, signed by Prince Michael Radzewill and Julius Niemceiviez, as President and Secretary of the Senate, and by Waldeslaus Ostrowski and Xavier Csarnocki, as Marshal and Secretary of the Chamber of Deputies, the national representatives declare that they are firmly resolved not to prorogue the Diet, not to separate from the Government and the army, and even if an unforeseen event should oblige the Diet to leave the capital for a time, to continue to watch over the fate of their country. Maiteir B.—.A Decree of the National Government of the sth, orders that during the pi esent war not only public edifices but private houses shall, in case of need, be used as military hospitals. The State Gazette of IVarawn says, that General Kreuz, with his corps, bad passed through Lublin, that General Dwernicki had entered that town and proceeJed in pursuit of the retreating enemy. The IVaraato Gazette announces that General Ry binski will go to the army to take the place of General Krukowicki, who is appointed Governor of Warsaw. An Order of the Day of the Commander-in-Chief announces that Lieut.-Colonel Zwolinski, of the 9th regiment of in fantry of the line, has deserted to the Russian army. CRAcow, MARCH s.—Letters from Lasagow, near Z irnosc, say that letters and newspapers from Warsaw had been again received there, which proves that the commu nication with Lublin is again quite free. The Russians have left all that part of the country, so that the fortress of Zamosc is no longer invested ; seven thousand of the general levy, supported by a division of regular troops from Zamoac, have passed the Bug, under the command of Lu bowizeki and Reomerski. POLISH FRONTIERS, MARCH 9.—According to the latest accounts a considerable Russian corps has entered Plock, but has not been able to pass the Vistula, because the ice is too weak. ST. PETFASBURGII, MARCH 2.—On the 26th ult. Prince Lubooinski, Senator of the Kingdom of Poland, arrived here from Vilna. The Privy Councillor Ery, lis appointed President of the Provisional Government of the kingdom of Poland. —Prussian State Gazette, March 13. We received last night per John Jay, from the North and South American Coffee-house, American Papers to the 2d March. In consequence of disputes be tween the President and Vice-President of the United States, the latter (Mr. CALitouN) has published a volu minous correspondence on the subject of the course of Mr. CALHOUN, in the deliberations of the Cabinet of Mr. Momr.oE, on the occurrences in the Seminole war. The New York Commercial Advertiser says, that " all so cial intercourse has been cut off between the two first officers of the nation."--Morning Chronicle. Among the Members who voted against Mi nisters on Friday, was Sir JAMES SCARLETT. Whether the Learned Gentleman's continuing to sit for Mahlon arises from as absence of delicacy on his side, or of firm ness on the part of the patron of the borough (Earl FITZ WILLIAM) on the other, we know not; hut the public have a difficulty in understanding how Sir JAMES SCAR- Litrr continues to exercise his franchise against the opi nions of the Nobleman to whom he owes it. It is absurd to impute insincerity to Lord FITZWILLIAM; we rather fear the unhappy lawyer may be in fault.—Morn. Chron. REPRESENTATION OF WAKEFIELD.—In consequence of the omission of the name of the town of Wakefield in the Parliamentary Reform Bill, we have thought it our duty to inquire into the cause of the discre my _between the printed Bill and the speech of Lord RUSSELL on opening the measure to Parliament, and we h ave now the pleasure to state, on the highest an ti o c r , i , t p y yg , thatwtih which h will n omission he e rectified in the Committee, and, arisen from a clerical error consequently, that NValcefizd this Bill l i d . o, t t •ill be one of the represented towns of Yorkshire, id, Bill pass into a law, of which there can now be very 0 li tt le r io u ht.—Lee dsiblercury.

DECLARATION of the MERC H ANTS, I3ANXERS, &c. of LONDON, AGAINST the BILL for PARLIAMENTARY REFORM. We, the MERCHANTS, BANKERS, and others, IN HABITANTS of LONDON, whose names are hereunto subscribed, have perused with feelings of the deepest regret the details of a Bill which has been just submitted to the Legislature, under the sanction of his Majesty's Go vernment, for the avowed purpose of effecting an extensive REFORM and ALTERATION in the existing CON STITUTION of the COMMONS HOUSE of PAR LIAMENT. While we should have been far from opposing ourselves to the adoption of ally proposition so recommended, of a temporate character, gradual in its operation, consistent with justice, and the ancient usages of this realm, and having for its object the correction of acknowledged abuses, or any amelioration in the administration of public affairs which might seem to be called for by the changes or necessities of the times, we feel it impossible to regard in that light a measure which, by its unprecedented and un necessary infringement on the rights and privileges of large and wealthy bodies of people, would go far to shake the foundations of that Constitution under which our So vereign holds his title to his Throne, his Nobles to their estate., and ourselves and the rest of our fellow-subjects to the various possessions and immunities which we enjoy by law ; a measure which, while it professes to enlarge the representation of the kingdom on the broad basis of pro perty, would in its practical operation have the effect of closing the principal avenues through which the moneyed, the funded, the commercial, the shipping, and the colonial interests, together with all their connected and independent interests throughout the country, or dispersed throughoutour vast empire abroad, have hitherto been represented in the Legislature, and would thus in reality exclude the pos sessors of a very large proportion of the national wealth from all effectual voice and influence in the regulation of the national affairs. The silence which the opponents of this project have hitherto felt to be imposed on them by their respect for the authority from which it emanates, so long at le tst as it was not before them in a defined and tangible shape, having been misconstrued by the ill-informed into an tini versal acquiescence in its principles and provisions, we deem it a duty which we owe to ourselves, to our country, and to posterity, at the earliest practicable period after the printing of the Bill, to protest against it by this public declaration, and to invite our fellow citiz,ns of all classes, participating in our sentiments, to unite with us in every practicable and lawful effort of temperate but determined resistance to the further progress of a measure, which in our consciences we believe to be rash and inexpedient in its origin, and tending to consequences equally pernicious and irretrievable, menacing to the peace of the country, fraught with alarm and peril to public and private credit, and calculated eventually to undernsine and destroy all those venerable institutions and establishments, under whose influence and protection England has hitherto enjoyed a prosperity, and maintained a station, unexampled among the nations of the world. The above Declaration' having already been signed by many of the most influential and eminent Merchants, Bankers, and others, now lies for signature at the City of London Tavern, Bishopsgate-street, and the Thatched House Tavern, St. James's-street, with a Petition to the House of Commons, founded upon the same.

We mentioned some weeks since that many of the best friends "to Reform were to be found in the ranks of the Anti-Reformers themselves. Subse quent experience has proved the correctness of this remark. The recent arbitrary conduct of the Duke of NEWCASTLE, the Marquis of EXETER, and of Lord HUNTINGTOWER, toward those tenants whose •nly fault was their high sense of justice and inde pendence, has furnished the Reformers—who have accordingly availed themselves of it at every public meeting in which they have borne a part—with pre cisely that sort of argument which was most wanted to prove the justice of their case. The expression in particular of his Grace of NEWCASTLE, " May I net do what I will with my own," has passed into a proverb illustrative of the character of the borough mongers, and the necessity of their immediate extinc- " May I not do what I will with my own ?" What a world of meaning is here ! What a Crcesus like wealth of argument ! It is the Iliad in a nut shell ; the whole history and mystery of the borough mongering system comprised in one little sentence! As the affwring of an Anti-Reformer's intellect, it is the most suicidal sample of logic we ever read. Talk of HUNT and COBBETT ! Not all the argu ments of the two combined, aided by the more ex tensive influence of BURDETT, Humr, HOBIIOUSE, and the others of that patriotic school, ever yet pro duced half the effect of this one memorable apothegm. It has convinced the people that Reform can no longer be delayed with safety to themselves or the Constitution. In a word, it has become the Re former's Manual; the Vade Mecum to which HUNT loves to refer, and from which COBBETT draws his best materials. Equally advantageous to the interests of the great question has been the division on Friday night. Its motives have deceived no one. Its factious intem perance has disgusted every one. 'We are far, therefore, from partaking in the regret which some few milk-sops (who style themselves Reformers) profess to feel at what they call, the victory of the Opposition over the Ministers; on the contrary, we almost rejoice at it, in the firm conviction that it was the one remaining proof requisite to con vince the country of the necessity of at once cutting up, root and branch, the monstrous, unconstitutional in fluence of the boroughmongers. We will even go further, and state boldly and unequivocally, that these last deserve the thanks of all true Reformers, for the great assistance they have rendered to the good cause. Their factious blundering has ruined themselves, and insured success to their enemies. It would be ungenerous, therefore,to forget, when once Reform is carried, that the boroughmongers them , selves have mainly contributed to the victory. For ourselves we will cheet fully second any proposal for a public dinner, in grateful commemoration of their services. By far the worst enemies to Reform are the men who style themselves moderate Reformers. These are the true wolves in sheep's clothing, who steal as spies into the enemy's camp, and profess to admire his tactics solely for the purpose of frustrating them. Moderate Reform ! A plausible word, but meaning nothing. Had the grievances of the people been moderate—had they never for ages been op pressed, trampled on, trodden under foot, and laughed at by the boroughmongers—had they never been hoaxed and swindled out of their rights—had they never been tax-ridden, church-ridden, or law-ridden:—then, indeed, they might have needed only a moderate Reform to set them right ; but now when they are united to a man by the strong, binding sense of common danger; now, when the flames of sixteen counties are but just quenched; now, when one class is dis contented, another impoverished, a third absolutely beggared—are the people now to be told, that a moderate Reform will satisfy all their claims—that they are fortunate if they can gain so much, and un reasonable if they exact more ? Out upon such sickening cant ! Let the Reform be proportioned to the grievance; let the country be recompensed to the extent that it has been injured ; in a word, let justice be done to the boroughmongers ; and Great Britain to a man will be satisfied. Till then, Never. Gelman and Italian Papers have been received. The following are extracts : TuniN, 111.kacn 10. The Gazette Piedmontese gives under the head of Milan, Bth March, the account of the passage of the Po on the sth by the Modenese and Austrian troops, under Baron Giepert, of the defeat of the insurgents, and their flight to Nori, which was taken by the Imperial troops. Then comes the account of the passing of the Po on the night of the sth by the troops under Prince Bensheina, and of their entrance into Ferrara without resistance, in consequence of which the chiefs of the Revolutionary Government had fled, and a new Provisional Government, consisting of the Chevalier Baratelli, and Counts Trotti and Crespi, to act in the name of his lloliness, till the arrival at Ferrara of the Governor Asquini, whom his Holiness has appointed Pro-legate. The Gazette gives also, under the head of Frontiers of Lombardy, 3d March, the proclamation of Baron Frimont to the Modenese, dated the 21st February. Tuanc, Mauch 10.—By an express from Milan, We learn that Modena sent a deputation on the Bth to his Royal Highness the Duke, and that the city was to be oc cupied by the Austrians on the 9th. _ . It is said also that the temporary Government at Bo logna has sent a deputation to General Bentheim, Go vernor of the Fortress of Ferrara. VIENNA, MARCH S.-Our accounts of the military events in Poland are still unconnected. The great drams seems to be near to its denouement. It cannot be doubted that Count Diebitsch has gained a decisive victory, which, in a more favourable season, he would have quickly turned to advantage ; but, as things stand, it will probably be some time before be will be able to effect the passage of the Vistula with his army. From the Polish army having taken a position on the mad to Kalisch, by which it seems it will, if needful, make its retreat, some per sons conjecture that General Skrzynecki intends, if driven to extremities, to fight his way through Lower Silesia and Saxony, to the French frontiers. (A letter from Berlin, dated March 8, in the Allgemeine Zeitung, mentions the same notion.) Several Members of the Diet are said to have applied to the Aus trian Conhul for passports, which of course will be given them. Everybody admires the heroic exertions of the Poles, though they may not approve of the occasion. The military armametus are proceeding here with great activity, 12,800 hotief3 are said to have been ptirckased last week, and young physicians and surgeons are engaged by the Government for camp service; hoWever, the pa cific assurances of the French Government, and the general **A prevailing in Europe for the preservation of peace, di not countenance the probability of a breach of the exist ing family relations between the Cabinets; and all the re ports of war circulated on 'Change meet with little credit. the rise of the Funds, which fell considerably on account of the war in Poland, is a proof of the general confidence aid continuance of peace. The views of the French Mi nistry with respect to the affairs of Italy and Belgium, are said to be wholly conformable to the wishes of the other Cabinets, and in favour of legitimate order. VIENNA, 4 per-Cent. Metalliques.l Bank Shares. March 7 (DX, 943 10 I • 69 % 945 The second reading of the Reform Bill comes on this evening in the House of Commons. French Papers contain accounts of the disturbed state of Spain, that insurrection is apreading,and FER-. DINAND in a state of special uneasiness—as yet, how ever, nothing positive is known. The private cor respondence of the Constitutionnel state•, in an article dated Milan, on the 18th, that the invasion of the Duchy of Modena by the Austrians, had caused, in that city, the most painful uneasiness. The Brussels Papers say— ," We have received the news that General DWERNICKI has passed the Vistula, and had a ren coritre on the 3d, at Kurow, beyond Pulawy, with the Russians, whom it is said he obliged to retreat with the loss of four cannon, which he captured : it is added that he then advanced towards Lub lin, and that on the 4th, a brisk cannonade was heard in the direction of Markutzow." Accounts from the Polish frontiers, of the 9th mention a report that a considerable Russian corps has entered Plock, but has not been able to pass the Vistula on account of the weakness of the ice. We have received the following letter from Dover this morning : " DOVER, MARCH 19. " The Count d'Aerschot,who is understood to have been sent by the Regent of Belgium as Minister Plenipotentiary to Great Britain, landed here to-day, from Calais. As the usual salute has not been given to hire, and the privi lege ordinarily conceded at the Custom-house to diplomatic characters has not been extended to the Count, his arrival was probably unexpected, or his reception in London may be doubtful. " The passengers from Paris state that regiments were moving in different diresations towards that city, to coun teract a movement that has been threatened for to-morrow by the Republican party. It is the anniversary of the re turn of Buonaparte from Elba, and it is proposed by the party to have a parade, and to place the statue of Buona parte in the Place Vendome. An arrangement, which it is said the Government are determined to prevent." We are happy to find that there is not the slightest truth in the report of Earl SPENCER'S death. The Noble Earl has been, we understand, for some days slightly indisposed, but was well enough to attend on Saturday evening at the LORD CHANCELLOR'S Levee. BUILDING NEW CHURCHES BILL. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sra,--In reference to the Bishop of London's Bill for building additional churches by the laity, which has passed the Upper House of Parliament, allow me to remark, that if exception ought to be made against it on no other grounds, it ought to be strenuously excepted against on the score of the exorbitant and unlimited authority with which it intends to invest his Majesty's Commissioners. That body (I speak not disrespectfully) was universally under stood to have been appointed for a specific purpose--to superintend the expenditure of the Parliamentary grants for building and enlarging churches—a purpose which is, or ought to have been already accomplished. With the accomplishments cf that object it was naturally expected the Board itself would be dissolved. But the Bishop of London's Bill seems designed to translate the Commission from a passing to a permanent existence—to raise it into a kind of perpetual ecclesiastical dictatorship, a power as unwarranted as it is unprecedented in the Church. It cannot, therefore, be impertinent to ask, are the Commis sioners to continue in power whilst the Act remains in force? If this duration is to be commensurate, when is it to terminate? Would not the dissolution of the Board be tantamount to a repeal of the Act ? How are the places of those stembers of the Commission who are not members no account of office, to be supplied when the present individuals are withdrawn by death ? And how, too, are the necessary and not very trifling expenses con nected with the existence of the Board to be defrayed ? Is there not something unseemly and unbefitting in the interference with episcopal jurisdiction, which the Act in question contemplates? Are not the Bishops best quali fied to judge of the spiritual exigencies, as well as the di versified localities of their respective dioceses? If they are incompetent, either in judgment or principle, to decide in the cases contemplated by the Bill, how much more in competent must they be for the far higher responsibilities which they sustain. These, Sir, are plain, but important inquiries--points on which the public wish to be satisfied, and respecting which they have a right to expect satisfaction. Most earnestly, therefore, would I conjure our Members of Par liament not to treat with disgraceful indifference a measure in which the interests, not to say the stability, or the very existence of the Church of England, are profoundly in volved. I am, Sir, your obedient servant, A TRUE FRIEND TO THE CHURCH. SMITHFIELD MARKET. This day's supply of Beasts and Sheep was good, of fat Calves and Porkers rather limited.

In the Montreal Papers there is a message from his Excellency the Governor in Chief to the Lower Ilouse in Canada, with the estimates of expences of the Civil Government for the ensuing year, and he takes the opportunity of drawing their early attention to the total amount of this estimate, which is considerably less than the estimate of last year.

To the surprise of many, an illustrious Duke, who for many years has been attached to, and often voted with, what is called the old Whig party, upon the ques tion of Reform, is said to have given his adhesion to the Ex• Ministers. The Duke of Sussax has openly declared himself the friend of Earl GREY'S measure.— Court Journal.—This is, we believe true. The illustrious per son had fancied that he was fit for a certain important office ; but that fitness was not so evident to others as to himself. THE NUMBER SEVEN.—The debate re lating to the Reform Bill lasted seven nights. There are many curious circumstances attached to the number seven, viz—the seven golden candlesticks, the seven wise men of the East, the seven colours, the seven sounds, the seven stars, the seven wonders of the world. Ancient Rome was built upon seven hills, &c. The gift of pr o ph ecy and the po wer of healing is attributed to the seventh son of a seventh son. When the several Members rose late, or rather early in the morning on the seventh night's de bate on the Reform Bill, the House caught the idea of MACBETH, and e xclaimed, " Another yet ! A seventh I I'll see no more !"—and the House of Russell dispersed the Houee of Commons I 1-2lfirror. THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY.) CORN—EXCHANGE. The arrivals of all kinds of Grain last week were small, owing to the boisterous state of the wind. This morning there is only a trifling fresh supply of all descriptions of Grain ; but our buyers appear to have lost their spirits, and every article has mat a very dull sale to-day. Wheat, unless superfine, is rather lower ; and Foreign, though the factors are urgent to sell, has met scarcely any demand to-day. Barley, of the finest malting description, remains unaltered; but other sorts are very dull, and may be purchased lower. Beans and Pease are heavy sale, at last quo tations. Oats find buyer 4 very slovrly, but they fully support the terms of last Monday, as there are so few at market. In the Flour trade dulness prevails, and there is no alteration in prices.

I have it ' tressed many elections for that place, and on e ver y nc r ' sion have I been disgusted with the bribery and corrupti ng that was carried on.

He continued, "I am very sorry for it, an d f not myself privy to th e f ac t s o f b r ib er y ; keeP t a P p from all parti e s." I was on the hustings on the firs da a of the poll, wh en a voter came u .aid, " Will you pledge yourself not to exercise any brib e W e during the election ?" The man was in a ragged dres :',„t was not allowed by the 'Magistrates to speak ; h hav'na. a 0 better coat on, repeated the question en, A - o l t candidates, but could not extract an answer. I d '" oieg exactly see the money paid, but the bribery that svai nom the hustings until the last day of the on was so notorious and disgusting that I kep t ° ln to Mr. Deni'° ° ' consequence of my name being called by the Mag ist 7se and candidates to vote, I addresed the Mayor, in B„ft'is of voice that might be heard all over the hurting ni t somewhat the following words :—" For God's sake n vote., press me. You know I cannot conscientiously am too disgusted with the proceedings in 'this de e r they are so scandalous and gross, that I will ;sot vote,.' On Mr. Yates's cross-examination by Mr. Se r A s ir, &Arm:, he said that he had the highest opinion 01 ' Ewan as a man.
