Roue, MAitot 17.—The day before yesterday the Pope held a Secret Consistoty in the Vatican. His Holi tins nominated nineteen Bishops for all parts of the world. On the same day he raised to the dignity of Cardinal, Ist, Tho4uts Weld, born at London, 22d January, 1773, Bishop of Amyclea, its partibus ; 2d, M. Raphael Ma- Mei, a native of Rome ; 3d, M. de Simone, of Rene ventunc, His Holiness announced that he kept in petto the names of eight Cardinals who would soon be created. The agents of Den Miguel, supported by the Minister of Naples and the Cabinets of London and Paris, and Cardinal Albani, have in vain done their utmost to induce his Holiness to recognise the usurper. Pius the Eighth said to a Prince of the Church, who was a Member of the first Commission appointed to examine the titles and the validity of the demand of the usurper, "I have several times said to Cardinal Albani, that if all the Kings of the universe should acknowledge Don Miguel as the legitimate King of Portugal de facto et de jure, be never would be recognized by Pius VIII. before the Emperor of Brazil shall have voluntarily abdicated in favour of Don Miguel, in the name of Donna Maria da Gloria, his daughter, Whom Leo XII. acknowledged as legitimate Queen of Portugal. I will sooner annul all the canons of the Church than recognise Don Miguel." (From the Afoxiteur.) NAPLES, MARCH 14.--An extraordinary courier, who arrived from Madrid the day before yesterday, brought to I mercantile house of this city a decree, authorising it to purchase in Sicily and to export 20,000 salems of wheat Which are supposed to be intended for the French expedi tion against Algiers. The salem of Cie finest wheat costs about thirty francs, besides the export duties. It is sup posed that the corn will be conveyed in Neapolitan ships to its destination. The extraordinary sale of 20,000 salems of wheat, when trade of all kind is at a stand, is a piece of good fortune for Sicily. 'l3 Allut AfIACH 29,--The King and his Highness the Datepkitt left Paris, at a quarter past eight, on a shooting excursion in the forest of St. Germain. (From the Messager der Chambres.) 1" AItI S, Mantis 29.—The better to ensure the success of the expedition to Africa, it has just been decided, after a debate in the Supreme Council of War, at which the MU. Ain presided, that a corps of 8,000 or 10,000 men shal be assembled in the environs of Marseilles, Toulon, and Cette, to form the reserve of the army, to furnish it with r einforcements, in case of need, and to relieve the regi 'Meats which may have suffered the most. The chief coin Island of the corps de reserve is said to he destined for Lieut.-General Viscount de Montesquieu Fesenzac, who commanded a brigade of the grand army in the corps of Marshal Davoust, in the Russian campaign. An Emissary of the Dey of Algiers quitted Paris a few days ago. He Contented himself with requiring that three millions should he paid to his Master, being the balance of an account in his favour, which ;is actually d e po s it e d in the Cusses des , c;l! ll igruttione. On this condition an Envoy Extraordinary was to be sent to Paris by the Dey to make all the repa paration that should he required ; only half a million of francs were asked to defray the expence of his mission. These proposals were rejected. (From the Gazette de France.) Pasls,Uatten 29.—1 t is affirmed that his Highness the Dauphin will go to Toulon to ha present at the em barkation of the troops composing the expedition against - Algiers. (From the 2flessager des Chanthres of Wednesday.) PAlllS,:Afaticu 30.—A letter from Constantinople of the 2 6th of February, informs us that the Reis Effendi (who hue been allowed to retire on account of his bad health), haa been succeeded by Mehemed Hamid Bey, who has "vice before filled that office. Hamid Bey held the post of Kiaj a 8 57 and Reis in the camp of the Grand Vizier at Adrianople, where his place has been taken by Hadi Effendi, one of the P lenipotentiaries of the conferences at Akerman. One of these Papers gives the continuance of the pro ceedings in the trial of the Baron de St. Clair. Among the witnesses was the real Colonel St. Clair, of the British serv ice, who, in 1811, was IThjor of the sth regiment of Chasseurs, in the service of Portugal, who declared that he was the only officer of that name in the Portuguese army; and that he di!' not know the accused. Another witness was the secretary of the English General-in- Chief, who commanded in Portugal, who declared that he did not know of any officer of the name of St. Clair, in Portugal, besides the Major of the sth regiment of Chas seurs. He recognized the accused as having served in the Ist regiment by the name of Major Mackline, who, he says, was a troublesome person, writing letters to the General-in-Chief to ask promotion, and bad been punished for his importunity by being sent to serve in the 78th English Regiment. His letters were signed "Msckline."

Brussels Papers to the 31st illarch have come ;o hand : the following are their contents : BRUSSELS, MARCIII 28. We hive received Java Journals from the sth to the 21st of November, which fill up the blank in the series we had before. They contain three reports of General de Kock, of the ith, 10th, and 14th of November, dated from Magellan, in which his Excellency says that he lied just received positive information respecting the retreat of Diepo Negoro. This chief had very narrowly escaped oeing made prisoner by a detachment under Major Michiels, who having learned that that chief was in a mountain near Gaga, marched towards it, and as they were ascend ing they heard the trampling of horses and the sound of voices of persons coming down. All on a sudden they saw a troop of horsemen, preceded by a man on foot (the latter armed with a sabre, the others for the most part un armed) coming towards them. Lieutenant Bunhard killed the foot soldier, and our troops fired at the horsemen, several of whom fell, while others alighted and left their horses. The remainder leading their horses rapidly de scended the mountain through the bushes. Diepo Negoro himself, in the white garment of the priests, fell from his horse wounded by a musket ball, but rose im mediately, and also descended the mountain, which soon became so steep that the fugitives were obliged to abandon their horses and escape on foot into the desert, where our troops were too exhausted with fatigue to follow them. All - the horses belonging to Diepo Negoro and his suite, 35 in number, fell into our hands ; four were killed. We also found a pike ornamented with precious stones, which one of the prisoners says belonged to Diepo Negoro, and also his wardrobe which is not very considerable. The chief himself on foot, and probably abandoned by most of his attendants and without a guide, is wandering in a desert, and cannot go towards Loning, where his soldiers were, and who are still ignorant of what has become of him ; but even if he should escape with life, I have reason to believe, says Major Michiels, that discouraged by the perils to which he is exposed, and finding that he is no where safe, he will shortly make his submission. The Tommongong Tjondro-Genie, once a zealous par tisan of Diepo Negoro, had submitted to Major Michiels. His example, from which much advantage was expected, had been followed by several other chiefs of the rebels. BRUSSELS, MARCH 29. His Royal Highness the Prince of Orange left this city yesterday to return to the Hague. No traces hiving been yet discovered of the authors e( the robbery of the Princess of Orange's jewels, or of the property stolen, a reward of 50,000 florins is now offered for the recorery of the whole, and the discovery of the criminals, and a suitable reco►npense for the discovery of any property in proportion to the value received. VIENNA, MARCII 21. The Austrian Observer publishes the following news from Constantinople, dated Feb. 25 : " O❑ the 22d February, M. de Ribeaupierre had in the barracks at Ramis Tchiflik, a private audience of the Sultan, to whom he delivered his credentials. The Sultan expressed on this occasion his sincere desire to consolidate more and more the bonds of friendship with the Court of Russia, and testified his satisfaction at the return of M. de Ribeaupierre. " Various ordinances have been published at Constan tinople, one of which enjoins the Ministers and other great officers to reduce the number of their servants, to check the progr..ss of luxury, and to make those who are super. fluous enter the army. A great many individuals who could not give a satisfactory account of their business and occupation in the capital, have been either incorporated with the regular troops or sent to their homes. " Though the rigour of the winter has caused many of the necessaries of life to become dearer, perfect tranquil lity prevailed in the capital, so that, contrary to custom, noisy troops of masqueraders with music paraded the streets of Pera day and night during the Carniva', with out any interference from the Turkish guard. " The Turkish Ramadan began on the 24th February, precisely at the same time as the Christian Lent. The Turkish great men and officers of state have been enjoined by a special ordinance to refrain from the usual entertain ments during the Ramadan, and employ their superfluous wealth in the relief of the poor." The Hamburg Papers contain no news of moment. The following are extracts from them : HAMBURG, MARCH 26. BORSEN HALLS, HALF-PAST FOUR o'CLocf.---Con siderable supplies of wheat have been received during the week from the Upper Elbe, consisting principally, how ever, of parcels already contracted for.

The basis of the future Constitution of the Principali ties, as we are assured, is definitively laid, and the result of the labours of the Commissioners has been sent for ap proval to St. Petersbutgh and Constantinople. Accord ing to what was said to have transpired, it should seem that the new Constitution, if it does not fulfil all the wishes that have been formed concerning it, will make very essen tial improvements in our civil situation. It is yet possible that very important changes in the future fate of tlse Prin cipalities may take place, in consequence of the negotiations now pending between Russia and the Porte we will not anticipate, for fear we should expose ourselves to the clanger of illusions. We S will therefore only add, that it is affirmed that there is an alteration, in which it might pos sibly appear that the bonds which have hitherto united us with the Porte may l;e wholly dis,olved. However; let what will happen to us, we Were lx.fure so miserable, that any change in our political condition most be for the better, and be considered by us a, a benefit for which we are in debted to the magnanimous Sovereign of Russia. V/KNNA, lIAP.CH The Paella of Belgrade will no longer allow the ringing of the bells, and has ordered that to be taken down which was in the Illyrian Church in the Raisin town. This has been done. The circumstance has been reported to Prince Milosh Ohrenovich. It is a remark of GALIANI, an Italian writer, :hat the corn laws of every country take their one from the spirit of the Government. Where ;he Aristocracy predominates in the Legislature, as with us, it is therefore natural that the corn laws should likewise be aristocratic in principle, or designed to enrich the landed interest at the expense of the community. It however by no means follows that the landed proprietors benefit in the long run front measures intended to pre vent their incomes from falling, which are in jurious to the general industry of the country, and in this light the corn laws are beginning to be viewed by the enlightened part of the Country Gentlemen. Lord KING and Sir FRANCIS BURDETT in particular, lately expressed them selves in a manner which shewed them to be not less alive to the real welfare of the landed inte rest, than conversant with the sound principles of public economy. There never was a greater delusion than to suppose it necessary for the security of a country from the risk of want, that it should grow its corn upon its own soil, any more than its wine, sugar, or tobacco. The Roman Empire at the height of its power was dependent upon foreign sup plies, and to enact that the principal article of subsistence shall only be produced in the country itself, is to provide in effect that the industry and wealth of the people shall at no time exceed a certain point. It is equally absurd in principle as to declare that the supply of corn shall only come from a single county, for both a particular county, and the whole country, are from their limits inadequate to afford corn at the cheapest possible rate. The position in which the Go vernment stands with regard to the Aristocracy, often makes it necessary for Ministers to resort to specious defences of abuses, which their means of knowledge must have satisfied them are untenable ; such as the allusions made by the Duke of 'WELLINGTON to the prohi bitory system of NAPOLEON, and the disposition of foreign Sovereigns to prohibit the exportation of corn at the present time. Surely his Grace must have forgotten Mr. JACOB'S Reports, which so clearly establish the fact of the very earnest wish of the Prussian and Danish Govern ments to have a regular market for their pro duce in Great Britain, and of the necessity they have been under to encourage manufactures, be cause their agricultural produce cannot now find a vent ! To suppose that:foreign nations can have any motive for refusing to sell us their produce, at the very time when a scarcity in Eng land would yield them a higher price for it, is contrary both to all experience and all reason. Lord ABERDEEN expressed on Tuesday night his determination to support the Recipro city system, and shewed the continuing increase of our mercantile shipping. Whether our tonnage had of late years increased or decreased, the necessity and usefulness of the Reciprocity system would have been exactly the same, for it was adopted because we were driven to it by the refusal of foreign powers to trade with us on unequal terms. It may be very well for such statesmen as Lord STANHOPE to indulge in idle declamations against speculative theories ; but the fact was, that the Prussian and Ameri can Governments had expressed their determina tion not to submit to the discriminating duties and regulations with which we were accustomed to tax their ships, and a change in our policy was imperatively required for the preservation of our commerce. We have derived much benefit from the free system of trade so far as it has gone ; but we should have received far more if free trade principles had been fully, instead of partially carried into effect. The greatest of all the obstructions to the working of those prin ciples is the Corn Law—which is equivalent to a tax of twenty millions a year upon the coun try—and is in its nature a thousand times more injurious than if impositions to that amount were directly levied, in addition to the rest of our burthens. Dr. ROBERT LEE, Physician to the British Lying-in-Hospital, was on the 25th March elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of London. TOTTENHAM-STREET THEATRE.—A new two-act melo-drame, called the :air Maid of Lyon►, was produced at this house het night. It is a translation (if we mistake not) from a French piece, played some few years ago, at the Theatre du Vaudeville, with complete success. Like most of the serious French dramas, its sen timentality is of an exceedingly mawkish character—nor is it all relieved by incident; however, as it is short, and remarkably well acted, it will serve as an occasional stop gap. VINING and Miss A. TREE were warmly applauded. The house was crowded at half-price. Madame VESTRIS and her shadow, Mr. P—, were in one of the private bores. A paragraph has found its way into the News papers, stating that 140 new Dormitories had been con structed at Christ Church Hospital, and that there would, in consequence, be 140 new presentations. It turns out that there are no new presentations, as the 140 new dor mitories are in place of 140 old ones pulled down.

Wrrit ERMA, stated that he had been retained in this ease by Mr. Sze :d since it was last before the Court, ,tud was ready to proceed now, but that as he understood hie Lordship wished to proceed in bearing the lunatic pc- . titions, he lull to request that it might stand over until after lie returned from Bristol, whither lie was going to-morrow morning on public business. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL complained that advantage had been taken to bring in fresh Counsel of the personal indulgence he had shown on a former day, to allow the ar guments to stand over in consequence of the illness of Mr. Ching. - The LORD CHANCELLOR having been informed that Sir Charles Wetherell would return to town on Wednesday night, ordered the case to stand peremptorily for Thursday morning. IN ItE BIGNELL, A LUNATIC. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL was not quite sure that the order his Lordship had been pleased to make in this matter yesterday had been clearly understood. The case was of this nature :—The committee (Mr. Stonehouse) of the lunatic brought forward charges of misconduct against Dr. Routh, of York, in whose custody the lunatic is, towards the lunatic, such as he thought ought to induce his Lord ship to order Dr. Routh to deliver over the lunatic into the hands of some other person. The LOAD CHANCELLOR said, his order was that the petition should stand dismissed with costs, that the costs of Dr. Routh should be paid personally by the Committee, that the Committee should have his own costs out of the estate of the lunatic, provided he could without encroach ing on the annual allowance for maintenance ; and that the matter should be referred to the %faster, to inquire in whose custody it would be proper for the lunatic to be, Dr. Routh being at liberty to propose himself. IN MC HUMPLEItir, ♦ LUNATIC. The question here was whether the Committee of the lunatic was entitled to his costs for defending an action of ejectment, in which he had failed, without having had the order of the Court to adopt such proceedings. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL was for the Committee, and Mr. Russ Em. for the heir-at-law. The LORD CHANCKLLOR considered that there was no imputation whatever on the conduct of the Committee. He had endeavoured to obtain the sanction of the Court for the proceedings he had been advised to take ; there had been a reference to the Master, to ascertain whether it would be proper to make the defence; the Master had reported that it would, and a petition was presented pray ing the Court to confirm that report, but before it could be heard the trial took place. Under these circumstances his Lordship f•lt hound to order that the Committee should have the costs of his proceedings out of the estate. THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, T irEL 7B O' CL CK. The only arrival, this morning, of consequence is a Malta mail, by the Duke of York, sailed on the 15th of February, from Gibraltar 14th of March, and from Cadiz 16th of March. We have no arrivals of ship letters. The two battalions of the2Bth Regiment of the line have left Paris for the expedition to Algiers, amounting to 1,700 men. Accounts from Lisbon state that Don Miguel will con form, according to the wishes of the Courts of London and Paris, in granting an armistice. The celebrated Marquis de Chaves died on the 7th of March. On the 20th of March arrived at Toulon two ships laden with fifteen thousand cannon balls, for the expedi tion ; and since:Jan. 1, arrived there sixty millions of francs for the use of the expedition. It appears that some of the French ships blockading Algiers approached too near the coast, and were fired at by the new constructed batteries. THE FU) DS. The sudden change of the weather seems to have damped the operations in the Consol Market, as the speculators continue very inactive; Consols, which left off yesterday at 92-al for the account, opened at the same price this morning, with scarce a bargain doing. The Express from Paris is also void of interest. The Russian and French squadrons are now returning home ; we may expect that part of the English fleet will also re turn to the British ports. In the Foreign Market nothing doing as yet, and the prices are nominal as per yesterday.

KINGSTON-(THIS DAY). THE DUEL AT BATTERSEA. In the course of the morning Mr. CHENNALL applied to Mr. Justice BAYLEY for the discharge of his client, Mr. Byrne, on an affidavit stating the fact that the Grand Jury had ignored the bill charging him with being a party to the murder of Mr. Clayton. Mr. CLARKSON, who is Counsel for Mr. Bigley, ob jected to this deviation from the ordinary course. Ile meant nothing unkind to Mr. Byrne, but was anxious to know where he conid find him, in order to subpoena him if he should find, on the day of the trial, that his evidence would be of importance to his client. Mr. Justice BAYLEY enquired of the Clerk of the Arraigns what was the usual course under such circum stances. The Clerk of the Arraigns said the regular period for the discharge of the prisoner would be on the conclusion of the Asize. Mr. Justice BATLEY (to Mr. Chennall)—Can you show me any provision in the Act of Parliament which would warrant me in deviating from the established practice? Mr. CITENNALL admitted he was not prepared to do so. Mr. Justice BATLEY-Then I cannot allow your request. Mr. CHENNALL—WiII your Lordship, if I should find such a provision, allow ma to mention the subject again ? Mr. Justice BAY LEY said certainly, and there the matter for the present rests. The trial, it is now understood, will come on the first thing to-morrow morning. Nothing else of importance occurred in the course of this morning. In the Nisi Prius Court a long but uninteresting trial respecting a Bankruptcy is going on before a Special Jury. From the observation of Mr. Clarkson, it is reasoroble to suppose that his client, Mr. I3igley, who is yet at large, intends to surrender and stand his trial with the other prisoners. Ott Friday Mr. GRIFFITH JONES., the soli citor, wjs in attendance on the 12th list of the Commis sioners of 13anl;rupts, when he suddenly missed a very va luable silver snuff-box, which he had used but one minute before in Court. stated his loss to Mr. Commissioner TILEBECK, who instantly ordered the doors to be cloied and police-officers to be sent for. When they arrived, one gentleman proposed that all present should submit them selves to be svarched. Ile him elf set the example, which was followed by the other persons in Court, but the snuff box was not found. The thief had probably disappeared with it before it was missed.

ST. PAUL'S COVENT-GARDEN. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Stit,—At a time when attorneys want jabs, and the parish of St. Paul Covent-Garden, co notorious in its late radical reform of Vestries, is ocespiesi in tie all-absorbing question of the Land-Tax, the domestic comfort of its in habitants is neglected, and not a little annoyed by the intolerable nuisance occasioned by the parsimony of the Parish Officers in their contract for watering the streets. It is a fact that for the paltry economy of a few pounds per annum, the parish of St. Paul is in volved in clouds of dust through the month of March to the 16th of April, at which data the watering of the streets commence, and it is then done in a very ineffectual manner only twice a-day. In a parish like that of St. Paul, where the two large Theatres are aiteeted, and the central Market of the Metropolis, the traffic end thorough fare cannot be inconsiderable, and every honseholder cauL not fail experiencing the nuisance he is subject to. The new elect should not forget to let cleanliness and decency chime in with economy. Let any one walk from out of the Strand, turn up Catherine-street, and onward to the principal entrance of Drury-lane Theatre, and he need not be told where Catherine-street ends and Brytigcs- street begins ; the former is in St. Mary-le•Strand and they have had plentiful ablutions tl.reo times a day for the last three weeks. It is an old vulgarism, that new brooms sweep clean. lam afraid its application would be as unsuitable as insulting in this rase, hut it is to he hoped the poverty of the parish is not so great that its respectable inmates are to be suhkreted to this filth another season. I am, Sir, your obedient Servant, AN INHABITANT OF BRYDGES-STREET, April 1, 1830. Parish of St. Paul, Covent-Gardt n. THE LATE STEEPLE CHASE. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. St a, —Having observed a shocking olio-statement of Mr. Thornhill's steeple shawl, as well as his delta, in the "John Bull" paper, you will oblige to• by osatratlieting so gross an error. I yesterday visited him &hind throe o'e:oak in the after noon, when he appeared to Ire perfectly free frees danger, and now only waiting the effort. of natare to produce an union of those injured parts depeadtat on his horse falling upon him, and remain, sir, Yours very ohediently, &e. WILLIAMS, M.D. Stratford-on-Avon, Warwickshire, March 31, 1830. _ _ . P. S.—l Lave reason to believe that he was about the fourth in at the steeple chase, and that he never had a fall during the chase. POLICE INTELLIGIJCX4 BOW-STNEBT. Ashdown, the proprietor dike star ttoffee-altibp, Doti street, was again fined 151. for keeping his hoese open' at improper hours of the night, contrary to the act by which c , ffee-shops are regulated. Miss Zouch, whose matrimonial affair with a gentlemen of property now in the East Indies was the occasion of so much talk some time ago, came before Mr. BALL; yester day, to know how she meld recover the sirs of 101., of which some person hail defrauded her. She stated that she bad lately published her history. and had employed a man to go out with - a placard, for the purross of advertis ing it. This man bad trusted another party with copies of her work to the amount of 10s , and she wished to know how she could recover the amount from ; the party in question, who had refused to give any account of it. Mr. HALLS said it would be necessary for the party to appear to whom she had intrusted the copies of her history, as he was the party who had been defrauded. Miss Zouch said she would bring that individual for ward ; and, handing the Magistrate a copy of her history, she curtsied low, and left the office. QUEEN.SQUARL THE lIITIE•PAU.K GANG.—Yesterday Mr. William Henry Cooper, the proprietor of Batt's Hotel, Dover street, Piccadilly, appeared before Mr. Manarcerv, the sitting Magistrate, to make an application to him under the following circumstances Mr. Cooper, addressing the Magistrate, said, that a statement appeared in some of the London Papers which he considered injurious to his establishment. A person, who gave his name Mr. William Browne, had stated that he resi.ed at Batt's Hotel ; he was charged with an offence of a certain description, whisk he weeld not allude to, and ordered to find bail to answer the charge at the sessions.— He had made inquiry, and could asaare the Magistrate that no person of that name had ever resided at any time at his hotel, or had any person answering the description of the said William Browne ever frequented his house. Mr. Maxerorr said, he was aware when the bail was offered that the name and address given by the primmer were totally false: his real name was then stated. Mr. Cooper said, that his only reason fer coming for ward was to contradict the fellow's statement. _ Mr. MAxiitorr declined giving any opinion on this point; and Mr. Cooper, after thanking the 34a:is:rate, left the office; William Browne, the*person itlhaded to, was ordered to rind bail, himself in 1001., and two atrotiet in £Ol. each. W e understand that Browne is not the narie of the culprit, who is the son of a Member of Parliament. We hear that Mr. GEORGE BANENE ie to be one of the Lords of tLe Treasury.—Merning Paper. The forthcoming work called Tales of the CoZonies, by Mr. Howlsosr, se well known in the literary world by his admirable " Sketches of Canada," is said to be of very commanding and original interest. It consists, we are informed, of four Stories, entitles! " The Island," " SAlegrove," " One False Step" and " The Colarnbolo" the scenes of which are laid in sense of the most important of the British Coloniee. They elucidate the mode of life that is open to the adventurous settler en arriving in a land where a thousand new objects awaken his attention —where new pursuits claim his energies —where he comes in contact with a race of beings widely difertnt from those he has left behind. The picture of his fresh career must excite, we think, no small degree of curikAity, at a time when our foreign possessions are making such rapid strides in civilization, and are daily growing into more and more importance. FROM A CORRESPONDENT.—The revolving change of the seasons fnrnishes a beautiful subject for con• temptation. The month of March, generally notorious for its bleak and piercing winds, has nearly at its termination assumed not ,only a mild and gentle, Lot a delightful pleasing appearance. The God of Day has appeared in unclouded splendour. The winter in over and gone, and the vernal beauties of spring ravish► the es of the specta tor.
