FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. FRENCH PAPERS. (Frera the Gazette de France dated Wednesday, Dec. 12.) FROM THE BANKS OF THE DANUBE , Nov. 29. It is said here that the Porte having declared that the late events at Navarin released it from the con ditions wilich it had accepted in the treaty of Aker mann, Baron Ottenfels immediately signified to the Divan, that the Court of Austria could not approve such a resolution. It is even added, that the Inter nuncio intimated that the mediation of Austria de pended on the vigorous observance of the treaty of Ackermann. VIENNA, Dec. 2.—( From the Augsburgh Gazette.) —Persons who are well-informed assert, that how ever alarming the news from Constantinople may be, there still remains some hope of preserving peace. ;he question of intervention, rejected by the Divan, is said to have been comprehended by implication, in a proposal of an armistice lately presented by Baron Ottenfels; and it is not impossible but this last proposal may be acceded to, because the Porte would thereby gain time for its armaments, and might reckon on more favourable occurrences during the winter. The Russians, on their side, if it should be necessary to go to war, would not be sorry to wait for the spring. CONSTANTINOPLE, NOV. 11.-A park of artillery of 200 pieces of cannon is gone to Silistria, and about 600 waggons with ammunition have taken the road to Rudschuk. The Sultan's Grand Chamber lain is gone to Adrianople to prepare a residence for the Sultan, who will repair to the army as soon as the Ambassadors have left Constantinople. The Frank merchants are placing all their property in safety, and can find no more secure depot than the hotels of the Austrian and Prussian Ambassadors, and those of the Legations of the second order; because all ships, without distinction, are detained in the port by the general embargo. Two Russian vessels, attempting to escape in the night, were stopped, and placed under rigorous surveillance. The Russian Minister sent his Dragoman to the Reis Effendi to complain of this ; but the latter an swered, that he was sorry he could not change a resolution taken by the Divan, and that these Inca cures were but trifling reprisals for the insult offered to the Ottoman flag. It is said that M. de Ribeau pierre was so dissatisfied, that he 'would have de parted immediately, had he not been detained by the representations of his colleagues. All communica tions with Europe were interrupted for five days, and have been re-established only on the interces sion of the Austrian Internuncio. (From the Constitutiont4el of Tuesday.) MADRID, Nov. 30.—(Private Letter.)—The cause of arresting the Reverend Father Almaraz, whom M. Perez Navarro conducted from Rome to the castle of Peniscola, is no longer a mystery. He was formerly confessor to the Prince of Peace (Go doy), and subsequently of Charles IV. and Maria Louisa.—While at Rome, by the assistance of Godoy, he undertook to write the private life of Ferdinand, while Prince of Asturias, and since his accession to the throne. His Holiness, alarmed at such an enterprise, informed Ferdinand of the fact. M . N avarro was sent to seize him and his papers. When he understood that he was to be conducted to Spain, he exclaimed, " I am lost !" When he ar rived at Tarragona, his' Majesty inquired very anxiously after the papers which had been taken in the prisoner's possession. The Council of State and the Council of Mini sters are assembled, for the purpose of considering the remonstrances which ought to be made by our Government to Brazil, in virtue of the Treaty exist ing between that Power and the Cisplatine Re public, when the Portuguese troops attacked Monte Video. Nothing . has yet been definitively deter mined on the subject. It is said the Count d'Espagne is to be appointed Minister _of. War. The King answered some Prelates who sought the pardon of the Monk Tugnal, that there was no pardon foc.high treason. PARIS, Dac. IL—THE MINISTRY AND THE CON GREGATION:R appears that M. de Villele intends definitively to remainTrime Minister, and to present himself to the Chambers, escorted by M. de Pey ,ionnet. The debate, will then openly commence be tween France and the Congregation. This great .question will then be determined, and we shall be freed from the bitter anguish which now torments 's. It unfortunately happens, that it will be two months before that discussion will take place: and TWO months are an age, if we reflect on the preca rious situation of commerce, industry, and credit, which have so imperi4.ms a demand for confidence and stability. And on what. pledges, or what future can we depend, when all i 3 uncertain both at home and abroad : when we are engaged in a war, the re sults of which it is impossible to foresee: and when it is to be continued by a ;Ministry in complete dis cord with all the interests and all the feelings of the country. It appears that, some days since, the Miniiters were uncertain whether they should yield before the expression of public opinion; but the Congregation, of which they are the servile puppets, thought it better to preserVe Ministers, who can only exist or perish with.it. It is said that intima tions have been made to certain persons to come and support the tottering Ministry; but, as the continu ance of M. Trauchet and M. Delavau, in the Police, and the Marquis Vaulehier in the direction of the Ports, was made an indispensable condition, they were refused. The great wound under which the country la bours, is the secret influence of the Congregation —this second league, which labours underhand to ruin our Institutions ; but it must he condemned to the punishment of open day. It was particularly against the sinister and corrupting influence of this second league, that faithful and generous France has displayed her feeling in the Electoral Colleges;— that France, who demands, in exchange for so much readiness in its submission, a little candour in the men placed at the bead of its affairs. (From the Courier Francais,) • AUSTRIAN DIPLOMACY, PARIS, DEC. • 11.—We have received from Ger many the following important document : Copy of an Official Communication from Prince Metternich, to Baron OttenCels, dated Sept. 22 : " The complicated and embarrassing situation in -which you have just placed our Cabinet, M. le Baron, by the inexplicable conduct you have adopted in refusing your co-operation with the simultaneous measur e of the . -Ministers of the Three Allied 'Powers towards the Porte, has singularly affected hi s m a jesty the Emperor and King, who blames you, And disavows you entirely on'the present occasion. " It is not, in fact, possible to comprehend the reasons which have induced you to refuse the invita tion which these gentlemen sent you ; and if you had properly appreciated the spirit of the instructions which I transmitted you in December last, and Which have not since been revokAd, you would, most assuredly, not have committed such a mistake. "In order to repair it, which is the least can do, I must impose on you the penalty of going your self to make an excuse to your colleagues—that you have misunderstood the orders which 1 - 4,. , d been given you; declaring to them that you are ready, _henceforward, to support, by all the means in your pow e r, the proceedings. tending to make the Porte relay from its obstinacy, and not persist in its refusal to adopt the salutary measures lately proposed to it, the wishes of his Majesty being in entire conformity with those of his august Allies, for the preservation of generaipeace, and for the re-establishment of ord er a nd seugrity in the East. " nia'doeuMent explains how the Austrian Ca -met, which for xu , long a time had made common cause with the Divau, Ns shown itself for some time 0,, , p0,ed to support the proceedings of the Triple ,Alliance. It seems that Prince Metternich, seeing retolutiou of the Three Powers, w as terrified he had Pursued up to that time. He the poli c y felt - ahA t ' 2 , 11. " .t w(uldl ' t Ptoduced in Europe by h o c 4-yrrip aaily f or t he t T Powers at t i le moment w hen 'Ore:: 1-'(w,ers were arming to put t 1 , ,e an end to the disasters and murders of Greece.— He felt that if the intervention produced a war, her Cabinet might be in an embarrassing situation; and that if a dismemberment were at length decided on, her views on Bosnia and Servia might be opposed by his friendly relations with the Porte; and that it would be difficult to share the spoils of his Allies. M. de Ottenfels has paid for M. tie Metternich, for nobody will believe that the Ambassador has not understood his instructions. He has just received a title and honours. Fur six years the Austrian In ternuncio has acted in the same manner, without being either disavowed or blamed. M. de Metter nich could not avow that he had given instructions contrary to the views of the three Powers, and in consequence of recent circumstances, he repented of having given those instructions. The Ambassador was therefore obliged to make the apology, being remunerated by the favour of the Court. (From the Journal des Debuts.) PARIS, DEC. 11.-If the part to be taken by each of the Powers which have signed the Treaty of London, in the war which is preparing, be uncer tain, that of Austria gives rise to uneasiness. It is supposed she will accept the part of a Mediator. To negociate at Constantinople while battles are fight ing under its walls, is not to be sufficiently acquaint ed with events to•profit by them. At Vienna, more over, they understand the policy of waiting, which very often succeeds. The agents for Austria have already, it is said, purchased large quantities of corn, which they are sending to the Danube, and the ma gazines will now be followed by troops. Neutrality often begins by an Army of Observation, but by it is seldom finished. MARSEILLES, DEC. 3.—Letters from Vienna, Odessa, and Italy, announce that an embargo has been laid on the English, French and Russian ships, and that the Ambassadors had ceased their functions. This news, which is considered correct, has caused great -bustle. Our city will lose very much, what ever may be the consequences. The Ministers are accused of having allowed themselves to be surprised by this war as well as that of Algiers. The follow ing fact is, I believe, authentic : " France has made offers to the Dey of Algiers, who would not even listen to the first proposals. We have done all in our power to bring peace ; the Dey has rejected our offer with disdain, pretending that he had been unjustly attacked by the blockade —that he had been insulted by the Consul, for which he had obtained no satisfaction—and that he could carry on war against France, which he did not dread ; as for the disembarkation of troops, he should expect them, and that he had good friends, who would come to his assistance." This news has put an end to the hope of soon seeing the ridiculous war put an end to. Our in fluence at Alexandria i 3 at an end ; the Pacha has ordered three frigates to be built—one in Sweden, one in EnW.lnd, and the third at Leghorn. The Minister of Finance, the Armenian Bogosa, is fa vourable to the English, and particularly to the house of Briggs and Co., in which he is supposed to have an interest. This house receives all the cottons in the first instance, and shares them out to the markets of Italy and France, as a profit can he obtained for them. (From the ConstitutionneL) CORFU, Nov. 18.—Ibrahim Paella having, during his last expedition, burned every thing that was left like a house, in the west of the PelOponessus, cut down all the fruit trees, and murdered the women and children that fell into his hands, has returned to Modon. A part of the Arabs he had left in garrison at Patras, have succeeded in escaping,' and rejoined him on the 341 of this month. Since the destruc tion of the Turco-Egyptian fleet, Ibrahim Pacha has changed his character, which has become milder. We have just received letters from the Island of Egina, which informs us, that the blockade of the island of Eubxa is strictly kept up ; the troops that had been landed there occupied all the Northern part to the foot of Mount Delphi. Lately a battle was fought with the Turks that Omer Pacha had sent to im pede the march of the Greeks upon Negropont; the capital of the Island; the latter came off conquerors. The enemy has suffered much, and lost a great num ber of men. G. Caratasso, junior, who was going to Patradjek, to rejoin General Panourias, Taretza, a village almost in ruins, situated upon Mount Goura, when be was informed that about a hundred Delis (the choice cavalry of the Turks) •,vere descending the hill; the young Cara lasso, who was accompanied by his bravest Palicari, without losing time, placed them in ambush: the Turks, not expecting any thing of the kind, fell into the trap. These Delis guarded a large sum of money, which the Sultan had sent to Redscbid Pacha, Seraakier of Rumelia, to pay his Albanians. The Turks fought bravely, buNin the end they were all slain, and the money remained in the hands of the Greeks. After this affair Cara tasso abandoned his project of joining Panourias, and returned to Volos. He has sworn upon the Gospels to employ this money in nothing else but in the preparations of an expedition against Olympus, his native country, and to land with his brave country men on the shore of Platamene. The Albanians, getting no pay, have left , the camp of Redschid Pacha, who at present is at Thebes, in Bceo, and as all the ports of Western Greece are occupied by the Greeks, they have taken the road to Thessaly, in order to cross the Pindus and return home. With respect to the Seraskier, to repair the loss of money he has sustained, he has just ordered that all who inhabit the territory under his dominion (without specifying the Christians, and yet there is not a Turk in Greece Proper), should bring him willingly the gold and silver they may possess, tin der ptun of losing their heads; but the Greeks have sent what money they had to Calomos and Syra, to purchase gunpowder and lead. BRUSSELS PAPERS. HAGUE, DEC. 6. AND 7.—The Second Chamber of the States-General had before it the discussion of two projects of law, the one fixing the repartition of the total cf the land•lax among the provinces of the kingdom, the other creating a fund for the relief of the provinces which are rated too high. The first having been adopted by a majority of 69 votes to 15, the Chamber proceeded to deliberate on the se cond, and the debate being extended to a great length could not be concluded on the 6th. On the 7th several members having spoken for and against, the Minister of Finance rose to defend the project, after which the question was put, when there ap peared to be4s in favour, and 46 against, so that it was lost by a majority of one vote. The President then said, " The Second Chamber of States-Gene ral will express to the King its gratitude for the zeal with which he attends to the interest of the kingdom, and will respectfully request to take the proposal into further consideration. " BRUSSELS, DEC. 10.—Two Russian couriers passed through Berlin on the 3d, on their way from Petersburgh to Paris. _ A British Cabinet Messenger passed through this city yesterday from London, with despatches for Vienna; and this morning an Austrian Cabinet Messenger arrived from Vienna, with despatches for London. DECEMBER 11.—The Hague Journal of the 10th s a ys, " The ship Potomac has brought accounts frora Java to the 22d of August, which announce that the rebel chief Dipo Negoro has entered into nego ciations, that hostilities had already been provi sionally suspended, and that great hopes were en tertained that this war would be soon terminated. The negotiations were commenced by M. Stayers, ,t planter settled in the country of the Princes, and the Commissioner -General intended to go thither himself, in order to accelerate the conclusion of a favourable convention._ CORFU, Nov. H.—lbrahim Pacha is on the march to Patras with all his forces,leaving only weak garri sons i n the castles of Modon, Coron, and Navarin. It is thought he will join Redschtd - Pacha in Li vadia. A. French ship of the line and a frigate have sai)ed for Alexandria. The French brig the Zebra and the HIGH WATER AT LONDON BRIDGE TO-3tORROW. Morning...s7 minutes after 10. Evening ....32 minutes after 11. N..1/1 1 1 LONDON. FRIDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 14, 1827. At the Council held yesterday his MAJESTY was pleased to sign the Proclamation for _assem bling Parliament on the 22d of January. We before stated that Parliament would meet on that day ; but it is not expected that much of the important business which is to occupy its attention will be brought forward until those of its MAJESTY'S Ministers who have vacated heir seats by the acceptance of new offices are re-elected. The Paris Papers of Tuesday, and the Gazette de France dated Wednesday morning, reached us last night. They contain intelligence from Constantinople, copied from the Augsburgh Gazette, but of no later date than that which had before arrived. The substance of all the accounts is the same, namely, that up to the 11th no symptom of submission had appeared, and that various preparations were making, which indicated a determination on the part of the SULTAN to go to war. A park of artillery of 200 cannon had been sent to Silistria, and above 600 waggons of ammunition had taken the road to Rudshuck. The Grand Chamberlain' to the SULTAN had gone to Adrianople to prepare a residence for the SULTAN, who was to repair to the Army as soon as the Ambassadors had left Constantinople. The embargo was strictly en forced, and two Russian vessels which attempted to escape were stopped, and placed under rigorous surveillance. On the Russian Minister com plaining' of this proceeding, the REIS EFFENDI declared he could not alter a resolution taken by the Divan, and that these were but trifling reprisals for the insult offered to the Ottoman Flag. M. RIBEAUPIERRE was only restrained from taking his departure immediately by the re presentations of his colleagues. When affairs had reached this crisis, it is improbable that the PORTE would be induced to listen to reason — and it must be expected that unless the Ambassadors gave up some of the demands they were instructed to make, which of course is altogether unlikely, all communica , tions between them and the Turkish Go vernment would shortly cease. The report that , they actually quitted Constantinople on the 15th, probably that we to the expectation that, before negociation would he at an o t d s ay, its , a originll end. At present there is nothing to prove that hat expectation was not well founded ; while ihere is likewise nothing to prove positively that it had been realized. The Gazette de France publishes a very ex traordinary- document—being a despatch, said to have been addressed, on the 22d September last, by Prince METTERNICH, to Baron OTTEN FELS, the Austrian Internuncio at the PORTE, blaming him in strong terms for his conduct in refusing his co-operation with the Ministers of the Allied Powers, and directing him, in order to repair his mistake, to make a personal apology to those Ministers, and declare to them that, henceforward, he will use every means in his power to induce the PoRTE to submit to the general wishes of the European Powers. Baron OTTENFELS, however, when thus offi cially blamed for his conduct, would no doubt have received private explanations of the cause of the change in the policy of the Cabinet of Vienna, which had rendered it necessary to dis avow its former proceedings, by the flimsy pre text of its instructions having been misunder stood. That this was nothing but a pretext, is proved by the circumstance of his Majesty the Emperor of AUSTRIA having, on the 30th November, advanced Baron OTTENFELS to the dignity of Privy Councillor, and conferred the Order of St. Leopold upon M. VON HUZAR, the Interpreter at Constantinople. The Journal des Debats asserts that Austrian Agents have made large purchases of fodder and other articles, which are sent off towards the fortresses on the Danube, and that troops will soon follow. The French Papers still indulge in violent at tacks against the Ministry, but M. VILLELE shows no more disposition to submit to the wishes of the people than the SULTAN does to those of the Allied Powers. Extracts of these Papers are given in another column, and we subjoin the price of the Funds in Paris on Tuesday. FRENCH FUNDB.—Five per Cents. 101 f. 25c. ; Three per Cents. 67f. 40c.—Ezehange on London—One mon* 25f. 10c, ; three months, 2ff. 95c. We have inserted in a preceding column ex tracts from the Brussels Papers to the 12th inst. which arrived last night. An article from Corfu, dated Nov. I I, mentions that IBRAHIM PACHA was on the march to Patras with all his forces, leaving only weak garrisons in Modou, Coron, and Navarin. It was supposed that he would join REDSCHID PACHA In Livadia. The Allgerneine Zeitung of the '7th inst. has been received this morning. It contains no news from Constantinople, and' the following para graph is the only one worth copying ; TRIESTE, DEC. 1. A captain of a ahip who has arrived here to-day, in nine days from Zante, says that, during his stay there he did not see a single ship of war of any nation. The Greek steam-boat, with five or six other Greek vessels, is said to be still in the Gulf of Lepanto, and Ibrahim Pacha to be engaged at Navarin in repairing the wrecks of his fleet. Dutch Papers have also cotne to hand this morning, of which the following are extracts , VIENNA, Nov. 26. riltest w TArrrint. No where, probably, has the extraordinary catastrophe at Navarin made so deep an impression, and excited such interest, as here; the Court and the Ministry, as well as all classes of people, were equally affected by it. Those who are susceptible of grief and gratitude will not wonder at this feeling. In the most dangerous periods of the do minion of Beonaparte, every means of temptation was, in vain, employed to induce the Divan to act in a hostile man ner towards Austria. No State could snore punctually act as' a good neighbour towards another, than the Porte has done for above a generation towards us. Amidst all the changes of Government, under Selim Mustapha and Mali- mond, the Ottoman Ministry remained consistent, and acted on the same system. This experience, acquired in a time of trial, could not but have an influence on the heart of our august Monarch. In private life, as in the im portant concerns of the State, his great mind estimates integrity and truth above every thing; it is thefefore easy to conceive the feelings which the news of the battle of Navarin could not fail to excite. On the 6th inst., in the forenoon, the Prince Chancellor. received an express from Constantinople, with an autograph letter of the Grand Vizir, in which the intervention of Austria was requested. At noon accounts were received from Trieste, which an nounced the burning of the Turkish fleet at Navarin. The Prince Chancellor is said to have immediately caused it to be intimated to the Ambassadors of the three Courts at Vienna, that this event would probably frustrate all attempts at me diation at Constantinople. We are ignorant what farther resolutions havebeen tis en in consequence of the subsequent accounts from Constantinople, which scarcely leave a doubt of the intentions of the Porte ; only it is affirmed that our Ministry has sent a note to London, containing.a declara tion that, whatever may happen, Austria will remain neu tral. The majority of the inhabitants of Europe look on the affairs of Greece as a matter of philanthropy; we too are not destitute of philanthropy, but justice, enlightened policy, and sacred obligations, to a neighbouring. nation, whose fidelity we have experienced both in prosperity and adversity, mark the path which we have to follow. HAGUE, IM 9. Major-General Verveer Las returned from his diplomatic mission to the South American States. The news which we gave of the conclusion of an armis tice with Diepo Nogoro, is confirmed by reports brought to the Government by the Potomac, which left Jitva on the 25th August. Letters received at Amsterdam Say, that the armistice had been officially ratified by, the C.mnis sioner-General, and that there was every reason to hope that the war would be terminated in this manner. The accounts from Odissa, via Paris, this morning, say that they are not so sanguine -of Peace with the PORTE as the accounts from Vienna state. From the former City they w M. RIBEAUPIERRE ja daily expected at Ode ssa, where apartments are already provided;it or e, t h l i i m at . Orders have likewise been received at Seb asto pol 'to get ready fifteen ships of war, which ar e to act in concert with the Russian Army, and the plan of the campaign is already spoken or, which General WORONZOW has formed. This Gene ral, it is said, after having occupied the Princi palities and blockaded the for tr esses in the Danube, will march into the heart of the Otto man Empire with his principal corps; Hhile at the same time a detachment will proceed on the side of the Black Sea, covering his left w i n g, and obtain possession of the sea ports, to secure the provisioning of the army. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAY.) FROM LLOYD'S. DEAL, DEc. 13.—Wind W.N.W.—About ninety casks of brandy and four bags of flax-seed have been saved, and landed here from the wreck of the Tryphena on the Goodwin Sand. The mate of the vessel is saved at Deal, the rest of the crew drowned. Arrived from London and sailed, the S. Taylor, Christie, for Jamaica; Fair Arcadian, Whiles, for Demerara; Circassian, Brooks, for Tobago ; Hope well, Parent, for Jamaica. The rest of the outward bound have sailed. PORTSMOUTH, DEC. 13.--Wind W. to N.W.-- Arrived the Flower, Paley, from Gijon. Passed the Hope, Ferns, for Valparaiso. PLYMOUTH, DEC. 11.--Wind S.W.--Passed the Water Lily, Bruce, from Jamaica, in eight weeks, landed a passenger. FAL3IOUTH, DEC. 12.—Wind W.—Arrived the Sandwich Packet, from Lisbon. Sailed the Skylark, Aplin, for Halifax. The Osborne Packet, from Falmouth, was off Cape Frio on the 21st of October, bound to Buenos Ayres. Lionne corvette are gone to Constantinople, to be placed at the disposal of Count Guilleminot. Nov. 13.—Joseph Gavagnin, Captain of the Gc culto, an Austrian merchantman, being pursued by a pirate in the Gulf of Corfu, took refuge here yes terday. Soon after his arrival, Leonhard Davanzo, also an officer of an Austrian merchantman, arrived in a boat from the port near Butrinto, and presented to the Austrian Consul-General a petition from five Austrian vessels at anchor at Butrinto, asking suc cour against the pirates, who watched them at the entrance of the channel to the north of Corfu, and had even penetrated, in the night of the I Ith, into the port of Butrinto, but afterwards retired. M. Hauenseheld, the Austrian Consul-General, immediately ordered the Captain of the Austrian schooner the Sophia, at anchor in our port, to take the necessary measures to protect the Austrian merchantmen. He was on the point of going in person to wait on General Adam, to request him to put an end to piracy on the coast of Corfu, when he was informed that two lonian vessels, the Lord Castlereagh, a Government schooner, and the Sir Frederick Adam, lonian steam-boat, having has tily taken on board sixty English soldiers, had sailed at noon in quest of the pirates. The steam-boat took the Lord Castlereagh in tow, and both pro ceeded to the south part of the island, whither the pirate that had chased Capt. Gavagnin had steered, accompanied by another vessel. In the evening the steam-boat returned with the two vessels which had been captured : they are two schooners; the one a Greek pirate, called the Calliope, is furnished with a patent from Lord Cochrane, and the other is said to be an lonian merchantman. As we have learnt here that another suspicions vessel was cruising at the entrance of the channel to the north of Corfu, the Consul-General has taken the command of the Sophia to escort the Aurora Austrian packet, which has sailed from Trieste, with a sum of 50,000 francs in money, and he will also take under his protection all the Austrian mer chantmen that are here and at Butrinto, bound to ports in the Adriatic.

CITY, TWALPR 0' CLOCK. The present uncertainty has caused many of the more calculating persons in the Monied Market to act with caution in the nature of their operations. Hitherto the want of some pro fitable employment in business for capital, has caused the British Funds to support a higher price. The period is also approaching when the pledge given of appointing a Finance Committee, for the purpose of putting the financial affairs of the country into a healthier state, will have to be considered, and may operate on the monied interest in a very important point of view, if it should prove true, as reported, that one of the first measures to be recommended, and which Ministers, it is positively stated, meditate to recommend, is a tax upon real property. This, if it takes place, would have the effect of collecting a large amount from those best able to support the binthen, and who have the greatest stake in the country, and be col lected at a small expence. Those well acquainted con sider that the sum would be so considerable as might enable Government not only to renovate the revenue, but also to relieve the public from a portion, if not nearly all, the Assessed Taxes, which are now operating so heavily on the middling classes of so ciety, a body which have been for some time declin ing, both in a moral and industrious point of view, which ought to be protected : a measure of this kind would also place Ministers in a state of popular feel ing with the country generally.

DISTRESSING - EFFECTS OF HABITUAL DRUNKENNESS—A few nights since, a man residing in New-Wynd, went to bed with his wife and child at a late hour, after a matrimonial wrangle between the two former, who were intoxicated—a thing of no unfrequent occur rence—had just terminated. It may be easily conceived that the infatuated woman, thus deprived of her senses, was a person the most unfit to act the mother's part to an infant only four months old, and this was shown in the sequel to be too truly the fact—for in the morning the unfortunate child was dead. From the appearance of the body, wkich was quite black, it was evident that the little innocent had been smothered during the night by one or other of its inebriated parents.— Glasgow Free Press. One of the most celebrated productions of art that has been introduced into this country, is a magni of the magni ficent bust of AGAMEMNON, placed in the entrance - h air of Earl BATHURST'S seat near Cirencester. It was e xecuted by a young artist, and brought from Italy to Lord APS LEY. It is a bust of gigantic dimensions, and sculp tured from a solid block of beautiful white marble - the workmanship is of so exquisite a character, that har dly the a li neament warrior's countenance appears to hav e been ne g lected .

The indi g nation of the population hlta the immediate been,s wawas feared eairted tthat, seems,xtee execution oin okfe t in the event of a rupture with , the Porte, the precautions of the PACRA would cease to have effect, and the Franks were looking for protection to the vessels of war• lying in the roadstead. A long ascount of the battle of Navarin was printed by the proprietors of the Oriental Spectator (which is published at Smyrna), and wa s sent round as a circular to their correspondents, a perfect relation of the event not being given in their paper. The account of the battle does not in the slightest degree in validate the statement of Sir Enwanu CODRINGTON. The circular, however, gives the following relation of some cir cumstances preceding the destruction of the fleets :—" On the 16th of October; in the afternoon, the three Admirals sent to IBRAHIM PACIIA, to demand an explanation of his breach of faith, and of the sortie from the port of the Turkish division, under the orders of TAIIIR BEY, after the promise which lie had made, a few days previous, of waiting, before he came to a decision, for the return of the Tartars who bad been sent to Constantinople. They desired him at the same time to evacuate the port of Navarin without delay, to return to Alexandria with his squadron, whilst the Constantinople division was to return to the Dardanelles. He was allowed three slays for his answer. On the 19th the Dartnioutle frigate was sent to learn the decision of leannist. His interpreter, Mr. PETER Asap, replied, that his master was absent on a secret expedi tion.' On this reply the three Admirals held a council, and resolved to enter, upon the following day, the port of Navarin to obtain (by force, if necessary) the execution of the measure prescribed to ballast." A circumstance highly creditable to the character of Admiral DE RIGNY is mentioned in this circular. It is stated, that when a man on boar the Cyrene was killed by a shot from the Egyp tian frigate the Warrior, Al. DR RICNY, anxious to pre vent further bloodshed, cried out "Do not fire; we will not tire." But three other shots were instantly tired from the same frigate, one of which killed the interpreter of the division, and the fire th en became LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY•) COURT OF CHANCERY..

The whole morning was occupied in 110'11 S Counsel in this case of appeal from an order it' Lancelot Shadwell. The plaintiffs filed a b o il f l, fil l interpleading bill, and obtained an ex-parte inju ne ; Lion from Sir A. Hart, to restrain proceedings law; a general demurrer was subsequently P; in to the bill, which came on to be argued before Phis Honour, the present Vice-Chancellor, who alloehe, it, and thereby destroyed the injunetiou—howe. appeal by the plaintiff; Messrs. HEALD and KNIGHT were for the OP lant, and Messrs. SUGDEN and NORTON fo r the m: e spondents. The former gentlemen expressed ehend.. selves perfectly astounded that Sir Lancelot' it well should have allowed this demurrer, a's r ' o rt, the very clearest case ever presented to a ` — t hst demonstrating as clear as the sun at noon -dg t he no demurrer could hold here ; the latter, in e t whole course of their practice or lives had nefer,r, n t with, or heard of a case, where it was more evi " — the party was entitled to demur.

The executors °et brought an action, and the question was, wh atil by upon the facts stated in the bill, and adolittedthe the demurrer to be true, there was sufficieo t „ ° ;: d a bill to satisfy the Court that the party filing, ;acts right to file, and could sustain it ? Upon had. his Lordship's opinion was, that the plain"' ev of The facts substantially were these :--A 500/. was left to trustees ; there was a debt w• - ; ► or the obligee had a right to claim from the ° bbg t on the bond to the amount of 500/.; an arraneh e a li t was entered into by the trustees and the oblig °r „' t n . o' the debt due upon the bond should be B ri t r ies printed for the discharge of the legacy; all - Pt e o adopted this arrangement, and the interest had eon de, or, regularly paid for a great series of years in mity with the terms of that agreeinent ; an d such circumstanses, the Court thought it iinPAss" s to say, the trustees had not a ground to file an p, r e taro a bill against the obligor.
