BRUSSELS AND GERMAN PAPERS. I BRUSSELS, * APRIL G.— G eneral Daine's head quai.- ters were transferred to Alost yesterday. Gen. Goethals, commanding the second division, will arrive to-morrow at Antwerp, where he will fix his head quarters. It is said that Col. Prusse and Gen. Vandenbroek, will be under his command. Gen. Niellon is to be employed in active service. The militiamen of the classes of 1827, 1828, and 1829, are repairing with the greatest readiness to their colours. Every day detachments of them pass through Brussels on their way to join their respective corps. NAMUR, APRIL 4.—The 3d battalion of the 11th Regiment, coming from the Grand Duchy of Luxem burg, has arrived here. A detachment of the Ist Regiment of the Line has also arrived here, and will set out to-morrow for Arlon. BRUSSELS, APRIL s.—The Lynx continues to print lists of subscriptions for purchasing the horses belong ing to the Prince of Orange's stud at Terveuren, as a present to his Royal Highness. The Lynx promises further lists. Since it is a party business it could not be otherwise, and it will be the same ev;,,rywhere as at Brussels ; that is to say, all the and well known Orangists will not let slip thj, s bpportunity to manifest their opinions. The Will be the same as in the case of the subscrip tbn for the Dutch garrison of the citadel of Antwerp ; the money will be given, the lists published, spread, and boasted of by all the journals of the party, and then the whole will be forgotten. We regret to have to speak of a menacing appeal to the people against the persons who have signed the lists published by the Lynx. This appeal, which is printed, has been scat tered about the streets of Brussels this morning, and we have found two copies of it in our editor's box. In the name of order and of the interests of the country, we must severely blame those who employ such means to inflame the people. The Orange party would be the first to triumph at the excesses which seem to be the object of this ap peal. Foreign powers, on which alone that party can depend, would find in them an argument which, under existing circumstances, the Belgian nation should take great care not to give them. IS not the weak ness of the Orange party obvious to every body for these four years past, and do men conscious of their strength revenge the insults offered to them by pigmies, who usually are exasperated by the sense of their weak ness ? We hope that the government is on the watch. Let the country be able at least to rely on it for the maintenance of domestic order. Some days ago we announced that General Goblet, Who had left Brussels to proceed to Berlin as minister plenipotentiary, was detained at Gother by circum stances over which he had no control. The ministerial If s itirnals have taken care not to contradict this news. Ve are now able to give our readers various particu lars respecting the affairs of Luxemburg, for the ac turacy of which we do not hesitate to answer, for we receive them from a source quite as authentic and worthy of credit as that from which we obtained the particulars of the forced delay of General Goblet. The cabinets of Berlin and Vienna have instructed their diplomatic agents at Brussels to present to our government two notes, in which they declare 1. That the legal radiiis of the fortress of Luxem burg is fixed at four leagues, by a treaty concluded between King William and the German Confederation. g. That the occupation of that part of Luxemburg in which the Belgian troops are now stationed would, if not soon put an end to, produce the worst effect on the minds of the powers represented in the Diet at Frankfort. 3. That the Confederation is not bound towards Belgium, either by the treaty of the 21st May, or by the treaty of the 15th November ; but that, however, Belgium has no need to proceed to the military occu pation of that part of the province of Luxemburg which is assigned to it by the latter treaty, seeing that the Confederation, though it has not recognised our rights to that part of the Grand Duchy, has no hostile intentions against Belgium, and does not mean at pre sent to disturb it in the state of territorial possession arising out of the events of 1830. 4. That if the military occupation of that territory were to be the only prelude to the entrance of the Bel gian troops into the German part of the Grand Duchy, or into the graet radius of the fortress, the confedera tion was fully resolved to use force to make its rights respected, and, if necessary, to cause the whole of the German portion to be occupied by its troops. 5. That with respect to a formal disavowal of the conduct of General Dumoulin, or of his removal from his post, which measures the plenipotentiaries of France and England have solicited of the Diet, the latter would never consent to punish one of its officers for having executed its orders, and asserted the rights of the German Confederation. 6. That the Diet would not refuse to authorize General Dumoulin to conclude with General Talor a military convention, for the purpose of explaining and interpreting, in their true meaning, the declarations exchanged, on the 20th May, 1831, between the Prince of Hesse homburg and General Goethals, which convention, however, should not prejudge any point relative to the recognition of the rights of Bel gium to any part of the Grand Duchy, and which must also be founded, on the fixing of the radius of the fort ress at four leagues, and on the renunciation of the Belgian authorities of all military operations, all levies of men or ballotting for the militia within the radius. These communications seem to have produced in our government the effect that was expected by the cabinets of Berlin and Vienna, since we see from the journals of Arlon that the_ ministry not only does not think of occupying the great radius, but that it has also caused the whole fort of Luxemburg to be evacuated, which is left to us by the 24 articles. We shall see how the Lebeaux ministry will answer the questions which will doubtless be shortly put to them in the Chamber of Representatives respecting this evacuation of Luxem burg, and the reparation demanded for the arrest of M. Hanno ; and, lastly, respecting the very prompt mea sures promised by General Evain to put a stop to what our minister of war calls the military promenades of General Dibbets. If, however, we still wish to learn the issue of this affair, it is merely from curiosity, for so long as the Chamber does not resolve to do justice to the present ministry, we must expect from the Government nothing but weakness and despotism. —Courrier Belge,sApril 6. BERLIN, MARCH 29.—The summer reviews this year will be the most splendid that we have had for a long time. The 2d, 3d, and 4th corps of the army will form the corps of the Guards, and form all toge ther a body of 60,000 men. A great number of dis tinguished visiters is expected; some think the Duke of Orleans will be one. It is certain he has expressed a wish to that effect. —Frankfort Paper, April 1. VIENNA, MARCH 27.—The second full meeting of the Conference was held yesterday. The subject of discussion was said to have been the press. It is thought that there will be for the future three General Assemblies of Conference every week. It is now quite certain that the Trannsylvania Diet will be convoked for the 26th of May, and that it will be opened at Clau senburg by his Imperial Highness the Archduke Fer dinand, as Royal Commissioner. This puts an end to all the idle reports of the removal of the Diet to Hermanstodt, which some foreign journals have repre sented as a most important event—Allgemeine Zeitung, April 2. We are happy to announce that Sir John Herschel arrived safe at the Cape of Good Hope on the 16th of January last, and that he has succeeded in landing all his instruments in good order. His first object was to seek out for a convenient place where he might erect an observatory, and he has happily suc ceeded in finding one, which combines all the advan tages required for such an establishment, with all the beauties of the most picturesque country ; and he is in hopes that, before their summer months are over, he shall have commenced his astronomical observations. His voyage out was extremely favourable ; not one day of adverse wind, nor anything like boisterous weather. We trust that his exertions in the cause of science will be crowned with success. Sir J. Herschel left England on the 13th of November last, in the Catherine Stew art Forbes, along with Sir B. D' Urban, the new Go vernor-General of the Cape of Good Hope, and left Portsmouth only about ten days before the commence ment of that series of destructive gales whose effects were so much felt in every part of Europe. We have, therefore, peculiar pleasure in communicating to the public this earliest announcement of his safe arrival, and cannot too warmly congratulate the friends of science that instruments, whose magnitude and space penetrating power have been so long duly appreciated in our own country, should be about to be directed to the splendid celestial canopy of a southern hemisphere by the illustrious philosopher himself, who has been so long accustomed to their use, and whose devotion to astronomical science, and self-expatriation in its cause, cannot, we think, receive from his countrymen too much of their admiration and applause.—Athe- I M*, 4 LONDON, TUESDAY - EVENING, APRIL 8, 1834. Our readers will be glad to learn that the KING is in the enjoyment of perfect health ; that his confidence in his Ministers is un bounded, and that no one can be more ready than his MAJESTY is to approve those proper measures of retrenchment which it is the bounden duty of Parliament to assist the Government in carrying into effect. It might be well, perhaps, for France if its Citizen KING, were as willing as our peaceable and reforming MONARCH is, to govern the country through responsible Minis ters, and to confide in their integrity and judg ment so long as they preserve the peace and honour, maintain the institutions, and secure the property, lives, and liberties, of their coun trymen. We are glad to find that the appointment of Admiral de RIGNY to be Minister of Foreign Affairs in France is an indication, as we pre sumed, that the foreign policy of the Duc de BROGLIE is to be maintained. The defeat of that Minister, and the question of the conven tion of the United States, arose in part from the intrigues of some of his colleagues, and in part from insinuations industriously circulated, that some of the members of the Government had a pecuniary interest in the adjustment that had been made. That such insinuations had any truth, as far as regards the Duc de BROGLIE, has not been pretended, even by his That they might be true with re spect to those who intrigued against him, is not improbable. But whatever motives de cided the Chambers, nothing remained for the Duc de BROGLIE but resignation, after the rejection of the treaty he had ratified. The intriguers then began their operations. M. de TIIIERS recommended M. MOLE as his successor. A suspicion, well or ill founded, that MOLE ls under the influence of Pozzo DI BORG°, occasioned his rejection. A plan was then arranged to make M. DUPIN Garde des Sceaux, which he refused, unless it was accom-. panied with the place of President of the Council. This offer had no other effect than that of offending M. de BARTHE, and causing his resignation. The intriguers being thus foiled, M. de RIGNY was appointed Minister of Foreign Affairs, and M. DUCHATEL Mi nister of Commerce, at the recommendation of the Duc de BROGLIE and M. GUIZOT. The other changes arose out of the resignation of M. de BARTHE. enemies. The German Papers mention that the second full meeting of the Conference was held on the 26th ult. The subject of discussion was said to have been the press. Why do not these worthies follow the example of the blessed FERDINAND, who made a petticoat for the Virgin Mary, and set themselves to the task of weaving a curtain to hide the light of the sun ? People will think, talk, and write, in spite of them. By attempting to hinder the progress of knowledge they may for a time, it is true, hinder the prosperity of their own states, but can do nothing more. An evening paper, which has some how or other got the credit of sometimes speaking the sense of Government on public measures, has last night published some unintelligible stuff about a connection between the resignation of the Due de BROGLIE and the arrival of Lord DURHAM and Mr. EDWARD ELLICE at Paris. Now without pretending to penetrate into Cabinet mysteries, or to know the secret of the negotiations for which some of our contem poraries will have it these gentlemen are gone to Paris, we will venture to assert, that neither , Lord _DURHAM nor Mr. ELLICE have had aught to do—in the vote of the Chamber of Deputies--in the resignation of the Due de BROGLIE—in the disappointments of M. DU PIN and M. THIERS, nor in the nomination of Admiral de RIGNY. Strange as it may seem, and incredible to our well-informed con temporary, we say so without fear of contra diction. _ The Paris papers of Sunday, and some dated yesterday, are principally filled with dis cussions respecting the late changes. The Moniteur contains a Royal Ordonnance, appointing General SEBASTIANI Ambassador to the Court of Naples. The " Hono rary" Governorship of the Bank of France is be stowed by another Ordonnance on the Duc de GAETE, whose summary dismissal, to make way for the late Minister of the Interior, is severely censured in the journals. The Due de FRIAS, the new Spanish Am bassador, was to present his credentials on Sunday last to the King of the FRENCH. Ge neral QUIROGA had received permission and passports to return to Spain. The inhabitants of Lyons have protested against the erection of military works, now proceeding in the neigh bourhood of their city. The report of the Committees of Peers on the Associations Law was presented to the Chamber of Peers on Sa turday. It approved and recommended the adoption of the law without alteration. Letters from Madrid of the 27th ult. hint at some difference between the Ministry and the Council of Regency, leading to a further post ponement of the Cortes. It would be unlucky. In Spain, as elsewhere, " a stitch in time saves nine," and if Sancho Panza has a proverb to that purpose, the Dons would do well to attend to it, for a rent left unmended, soon exposes the person to all the inclemency of the season. The aspect of military and financial affairs is not satisfactory in the interior, and the priests, availing themselves of Easter, are inculcating scruples of conscience for the purpose of fomentiugrebellion in all directions. On the frontiers of Portugal, however, there is some little vigour and activity. The report that 7,000 men, under RoDIL and MORILLO, are ready to pass the frontier, gains credit. Don CARLOS seems to think there is something in the rumour. He has decamped suddenly from Villa Real, and is making the best of his way to Coimbra. He is no adven turous pretender like our CHARLES EDWARD, but more logically concludes that whatever Di vine right confers can require no human courage or spirit to attain. At Lamego, however, he thought the earthly muck called gold might fur nish means for bringing his schemes to maturity. He made a dead set at the public chest, but was resisted and repelled by the Portuguese authorities, who kept the treasure for a Royal marauder of their own. The subject to which we briefly adverted yester day, viz., the Stamp Duties on Newspapers, is we which deeply interests the proprietors of all the papers in the country, even more than it does those in town. Lord ALTHORP is an upright man, and having given a pledge to reduce the duties, he will doubtless redeem it as soon as he is apprised that such is the wish of the proprietors of newspapers in general. The course we re commend then is, that the proprietor, editor, and printer of every newspaper should imme dietely prepare a memorial, and forward •it to the Treasury, reminding their Lordships of the promise made by the CHANCE;,LOR of the' EXCHEQUER, and pointing out the benefits which would be likely to arise from the reduc tion of the duty to two-pence on each paper. The London press will, we should think, adopt the same course, and the whole body of com positors, pressmen, and newsvenders, who would be greatly benefitted by the increased demand which the reduction of the price of newspapers would, occasion, should not delay a moment to present their memorial. It is just that kind of measure which requires only a little promptitud e and energy, to get effected almost immediately, but which can only be achieved as the result of combined effort. Surely the press has a right to expect assistance from a liberal Government, which it has cordially and effectively supported ; and Lord ALTHORP cannot refuse to act up to his own voluntary engagement. His Lordship would, without doubt, have long ago redeemed his pledge, had he been aware that it was the general wish of the persons interested; that is, in point of fact, not only the press, but every pro prietor of a coffee-house, tavern, and public library, and, indeed, every man in the country who desires that information which newspapers supply. The stationers and paper-makers throughout the country should be asked to join in the memorial, since nothing could tend more to increase the demand for paper. We feel confident that the revenue would ultimately be increased by the reduction proposed. What are the Commissioners on education and charity about? The Poor Law Commis sioners have had a great deal more to do--Yet they have completed their labours and published their first report. The education of the poor should have preceded an alteration of the poor laws. Poverty is, in a great measure, the effect of ignorance, and the want of a proper training of the young. The Commissioners might have rendered any violent and dangerous change in the poor laws unnecessary, had they been as prompt and industr,ious as they might have been. The country does not understand the cause of the delay. They imagine that there are great abuses of charities, and that large funds are worse than thrown away, which might go very far towards the expense of general education, if they were honestly and wisely applied. If the Commissioners were as active and as fear less as the LORD CHANCELLOR iS (to whom they owe their appointment), they would long ago have given him the means of proposing a measure to parliament, which would have re dounded more to his honour than all his other propositions. A great reform in the law is indeed very much wanted. The Lon]) CHAN CELLOR'S labours in this field have been inde fatigable, and they will, we doubt not, prove most beneficial to the country ; but to make England the schoolmaster of the world would be a far greater benefit, and the accomplish ment of which would render his memory more dear to mankind than any other which it is in his power to undertake. The mistake he com mitted some years ago, with regard to parochial education, was one which may now be rectified. The Commissioners should bring their labours to a close, and thus furnish him with the means of making a new attempt. Perhaps they would do so more promptly if, like the Poor Law Com missioners, they worked gratuitously. The Courrier Belge furnishes the substance of two notes which the Cabinets of Berlin and Vienna are said to have instructed their diplo matic agents at Brussels to present to the Go vernment. 'We give it elsewhere. Admiral Sir THOMAS HARDY is to suc ceed Sir RICHARD KEATES as Governor o Greenwich Hospital. PRICES Or STOCKS THIS DAY AT ONE O'CLOCK.

The statue of the late Duke of York, which is to be placed upon the top of the column in Carlton Gardens, was conveyed to the ground at the foot of the column, at five o'clock this morning, preparatory to the operation of raising it to the acroter. The process of hoisting this ponderous figure, weighing seven tons, eight hundred pounds, was commenced by the workmen exactly at half-past 11 o'clock to-day; and having continued from that time, was still advancing, by slow degrees, at two o'clock, when we left, at which time it had attained a height of about 90 feet, out of about 143, which it has to go above the level of the ground, before it can be drawn into a position perpen dicularly over the acroter on which it is to stand. It is expected that the statue will reach the summit on which it is to be fixed by six o'clock this evening. ' We defer our further remarks on this column—in our minds a very fine specimen of architectural and masonic skill—as well as on the preparations for rais ing the bronze statue (which work is undertaken by Mr. Nowell, the mason, and with which Mr. Wyatt, the archi tect, has, we understand, nothing whatever to do), till we shall be able to announce that the statue is actually in its place, when we shall have some few further details to state, which cannot fail to be interesting to all who are judges of merit in works of art upon so grand a scale. COURT OF CHANCERY.-(THIS DAY. The LORD CHANCELLOR ' sat to-day, at ten o'clock, for the first time after the recess. SHIRLEY V. EARL FERRERS. Mr. WAKEFIELD mentioned this case, in which an njunction had been ordered to issue before the vaca- tion, to restrain the defendant from cutting down tim ber, according to the terms of the undertaking, with a view to ascertain what the true construction of those terms was. The SOLICTTOR-GENERAL said he should oppose any discussion on that at present, and in the present form. The LORD CHANCELLOR was of opinion that he ought to say nothing whatever as to the construction of the terms, because from the spirit that had pervaded both parties throughout this litigation, he was quite sure that if he stated it was not to extend to under wood, the most gigantic and ornamental trees that could be met with would be cut down, which would subsequently be agreed to have been under wood, and if, on the contrary, he expressed an opinion that the restriction did go to underwood, it would be said that a thistle was not to be cut. MELBURN V. LYSTER. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL moved that the report made might be referred bask to him to be reviewed. Mr. Alexander Milburn instructed his counsel to move before his Honour the Vice-Chancellor, as against Messrs Jennings and Bolton ( Solicitors) and also as against their clients, Messrs. Codd. The Court be low dismissed the . motion, and ordered the plain tiff to pay the costs. The plaintiff appealed against that order. In the interim Messrs. Jen nings and Bolton went before Lord Henley, and obtained a taxation of their costs at 241. and a fraction for attendance on their own account, pending the motion. The Master taxed the costs ex parte, and without having had an affidavit of the facts of the attendances. The plaintiff went to the Master and obtained a warrant for a review of the taxa tion. Upon that review the Master reduced the sum to the extent of upwards of 41., but charged the plaintiff with the costs of that review. It was sworn that they had charged and been allowed for attendances for thirteen days at 13s. 4d. per day before the motion was made ; on all of which days the motion had been postponed for the accommodation of them selves, or of their own counsel. The motion came on now on these grounds, that by the course the matt er had taken, he had allowed two sets of costs (the clerk of Messrs. Jennings and Bolton having been in attendance,instructing counsel both for his employers and their clients) ; that the Master had improperly charged the plaintiff with the costs of reviewing his taxation, which by the deduction that had been made had been acknowledged to have been improperly taxed ex parte; and next that the Master had charged the plaintiff with the attendances which had been occasioned for the defendant's own accommodation. Mr. KEENE followed on the same side. If such a mode of charge as this was to be allowed there never could be any accommodation again afforded by a plaintiff's counsel at the bar to a defendant's. Mr. LOVATT opposed the motion. The plaintiff had made two sets of defendants, and they were enti tled to distinct sets of costs, by the rules of the Court. The appeal was only against the order, as far as it affected Messrs. Codd, and not Messrs. Jennings and Bolton. The Master had already reviewed his taxa tion, and the plaintiff had had all the benefit to which he could be entitled. The LORD CHANCELLOR did not think so. The Master's first taxation was to be regarded as amount ing to nothing, because he had proceeded without an affidavit. The proceeding having been ex parte before him, it was the more essential he should have had an affidavit before him, and been, as it were, Counsel for the absent party. But what affected his mind the most was, the fact of it's being sworn, and not denied, that a great many charges had been made and allowed for attendances which had been occasioned for the accom modation of the defendants themselves. Referred back to the Master to review his report, and the costs of the present action reserved. CHOLERA MORBUS.—DR. KELLY. A person presented himself before the bar, and stated in the broadest Irish accent that he was Dr. Kelly. The LORD CHANCELLOR—WeII, Sir, what is it you want ? The Doctor—l wish, my Lord, to hand to you a letter from his Most Gracious Majesty George the Fourth. The LORD CHANCELLOR—Very well, I will receive it with great respect. (The letter was handed to his Lordship.) The Doctor—The next is one from your. Lordship's 'most worthy colleague, ,Lord Althorp. The LORD CHANCELLOR—Very well, hand it to me, and now let the business of the court go on. (This letter was handed also to the court.) The Doctor—They are relative, my Lord, to the cholera morbus. The LORD CHANCELLOR—NeVer mind that just now. The Doctor—One thousand and forty-five cases of which I attended, and for 15 weeks I never was in bed for more than two hours at a time. I was attended by two most worthy clergymen, and we were actuated solely by a love for the poor. The LORD CHANCELLOR ---But we cannot hear all that just now. Tile DOCTOR—The word cholera is derived from the Greek. _ The LORD CHANCELLOR—I am quite aware of that, and you had better recollect that there is another word pretty closely related to cholera, viz., choleric— (Laughter),—and that when a person interrupts the business going on here, the Court becomes choleric.— ( Renewed laughter.) The Doctor—l am quite aware of that, and I only now send your Lordship the prescription which will be of most essential service to the poor. The LORD CHANCELLOR—Very well, that will do. The Doctor (retiring and bowing)—Long may your Lordship continue to sit in Tom Moore's saite— persevere, my Lord, and you will prosper.—( Much laughter, and the Doctor left the Court. ) VICE-CHANCERY COURT.-(THIS DAY.)

BRITISH PLANTATION SUGAR.—There is IlOt much doing this morning, but prices are steady ; the delive ries are increasing, and, in the last week, have amounted to full 3,ooohhds. The stocks are de creasing, but the crops in the West Indies are expected to turn out abundant. In foreign and East India Cof fees there is not much doing this morning. A public sale of 4,912 bags of Mauritius has gone off steadily. COFFEE.—There is a steady demand for British Plantation Coffees, but in foreign descriptions there is not much doing. Some public sales of British plantation and foreign descriptions, have been an nounced for this afternoon. TEAS.—The clearances are very considerable, hav ing exceeded 1,000,000 lbs. weight in the last week. Prices are very firm. WooLs.—The late sales, which comprised about 3,000 bales, on the whole went off heavily, and the Spanish sold at an average decline of about 3d. to 4d. per lb. The Colonial Wools of good quality main tained former prices. A few bales of Wool from the new settlement on the Swan River were sold at Is. 6d. per pound; they were of better quality than those first imported, and realized improved prices. The Tuscany Wools offered sold at nearly full prices. Other sorts were inferior, and sold at low and reduced rates. BALTIC PRODUCE.—The market for Russia Tallow continues very steady at 445. per cwt. The stock is reduced to 14,500 casks, and the delivery last week was 1,559 casks. In Hemp, Flax, and Bristles, there is no material change. SlLK.—There continues to be a very heavy market for Raw Silk, and but four purchases were made. TOBACCO ( KENTUCKY).—The principal business done in this has been in leaf, of good and fine quality, for Spain, at about sd. to 50., of which description our market is now left completely bare, and only those of ordinary and middling qualities remaining, of which our stock is by no means large. The few purchases made by the trade in Stemmed have been at 5d., 51d., to 5,Vd., of fair middling quality, although for good and fine, with a portion of light coloured tobacco, 6d. to 6, d. is asked, but of these the trade are pretty well supplied. In Marylands there is very little doing, the trade not consuming these at present. The manufac turers of Segars are purchasers of light, silky, speckled Havannah Leaf, but there is none in the market. The stock of Cuba Tobacco is very much reduced, and prices all firm in consequence. THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. We have no arrivals this morning with the exception of the French mail and the express from Paris. The latter brings the appointment of General Sebastiani as ambassador to Naples. By the late American Papers we have the following from Campeachy —" We learn from the New Orleans Bee that the brig Aurora, seven days from Campeachy, arrived at New Orleans, with intelligence that all ves sels from Tobaseo and Laguayra were quarantined at Campeachy on account of the cholera prevailing at those ports to a considerable extent. It is also stated that on the day she sailed a schooner had arrived off Campeachy from Tabeseo, with news that a revolution had taken place there."

We hear a report that Government has despatched a vessel to bring back the persons who were trans ported from the trades' union. Portuguese Stock was at 69, and has just receded to 67g. HALF-PAST ONE. We understand that an express has arrived from Madrid, which, we are informed, entirely relates to measures of Finance and the Loan. It is stated that the Spanish government have at length consented to take into consideration certain proposals respecting an arrangement for the Cortes Bonds. The above express does not bring any news from the Spanish armies. . . . . - The Spanish and Portuguese Stocks have been the favourite speculations of the morning, with a consi derable improvement upon the early part of the day. Spanish rent 32, Portuguese 69; since which they have receded to Spanish 311 i, Portuguese 67.1 68. Consols may be quoted 91 sellers for the account. Thursday being settling day in the above stocks, they are busy in adjusting their accounts. No arrivals as yet from Portugal. THREE O'CLOCK Consols for the Account, 91. Mr. Hutt is negotiating with the Post-office, with a view to make Hull the Post-office station for Hamburg, and with great hopes of success.—Hull Ad vertiser. The mackerel fishery has been very success ful this week. Great quantities have been brought to Truro and retailed at 14 and 16 for a shilling—a most seasonable relief for the poor, during the present high prices of market provisions.—Cornwall Gazette.
