This morning's mail brought to hand Dutch and German Papers from which the following are extracts JAMS', JAN. 13. (From the Moldavia* Bee.) The peace which has just been gloriously concluded forms the fourth period of the Moldavian history. The first of the year 1350 was rendered memorable by the descent of Prince Diagoch into the plains of this country, and by the re-establishment of the ancient national system of government, which, after the decline of the Roman Empire and the irruptions of the barbarians, had been preserved in the Carpathian mountains. The exploits which distinguished Moldavia at that time, by securing its independence, raised it, especially under the rays of Stephen the Great, to the highest degree of military glory. The second epoch is that of the capitulation of Mol davia, when it placed itself under the dominion of the Ottoman Porte, retaining all its privileges. The emigra tion of Prince Demetrius Canternir into Russia in 1711 is the third epoch, commencing in the reign of the Fans riots. An oppressive system, detrimental both to public and private rights, was followed. The country has been since subjected to all kinds of disasters and the invasions of the Tartars; and they were put an end to by a ruinous and arbitrary system of internal administration. The separate act of the Treaty of Adrianople forms the fourth epoch, and its beneficent influence will, doubtless, be felt by remote posterity. DRONTHEIII, JAN. 29. • We have hardly had for these ten years such an agree able winter month as that which is now expiring. The weather has been constantly fine, without any fall of snow, the roads good and solid, nu thaw having intervened. In the forests, and mountains too, the roads over the hard frozen snow have been good, and the communication easy. COPENHAGEN, FEB: 9. The bulletins of the health of the Crown Princess continue to state that her Royal Highness is getting better, hut that she still suffers much pain. The,Members of the Seventh Storthing assembled for the first time at Christiania on the Ist inst., and chose Count Wedel Jarlsberg for their President ad interim. By the last accounts we learn, that at Christiania and the neighbouring /Norwegian ports the coast was clear from ice, and the navigation quite open. LUBECK, JAN. 14. We learn, front authority that may be depended upon, that in the spring we shall have a speedy communication between Stockholm and our city by a steam-boat, built at the, former place, but that other arrangements will be made to improve and facilitate the conveyance of travellers and goods coming from the western parts of Europe from Lubeck, to the most important ports of the Mediterranean.

Ject to Olivet 0 °(fits- bers, at the head of which M. Labbey de Pompieres will afterwards be placed by seniority, will then be drawn by lot. The object of this Deputation is to attend his Majesty on the day of the Royal Sitting. " The Duke de Nemours, the second son of his Royal Highness the Duke of Orleans, having attained his fifteenth year on the 25th of October last, will assume his place among the Peers of France on the 2d of March, as a Prince of the Blood. and will take the oath before his Majesty prescribed by the charter. " M. Ravez, who was named a Peer of France by ordonnance of the 10th of August will also take the oaths at the Royal Sitting, if then returned to Paris. " The late batch of Peers, the Duke de Cereste, the Marquis de Tourzel, the Marquis de Puive►t, the Count de la Bourdonnaye, the Baron de Vi trolles, Count Beugnot, and Lieutenant-General Vall6e, cannot take their seats until after the ►n scription of their letters patent on the records of the Chamber. " Immediately after the Speech from the Throne, the Chancellor of France will probably announce the commencement of the Legislative labours of the Session for the following day, being Wednesday, the 3d of March. It is the custom of the Chamber of Peers to organize its bureaux on the first business day, and also to name the committee on the Ad dress. In the Chamber of Deputies the operations are always more complicated. They will begin by dividing themselves by lot into nine bureaux, or committees, to judge of the returns of the nine new members who have been elected since the close of the last session. Among the elections which are thus to be verified is that of M. Bertrand, chosen in the month of July by the electoral College of the arrondissement of Puy, in the Upper Loire, this verification not having been completed before the close of the session. The great college of the Loire Inferieure being convoked for the 27th of the pre sent month, the process verbal of the election will arrive a few days after the opening of the Session, and will be transmitted to the first bureau. " Before this process of verification is completed the Chamber of Deputies will proceed to those pre liminary duties connected with its organization, which are always of great importance, and were never more so, perhaps, than during the present year. They will arrange, by way of open scrutiny, the list of five candidates, from which the King will make choice of the President of the Chamber. They will then proceed in like manner, by way of scrutiny, to the nomination of four Vice-Presidents and four Secretaries. " It is only after these operations are completed that the Chamber is definitively constituted. In timation is then made to the King through the medium of a committee, and to the Chamber of Peers by a message. The committee on the address is then appointed, and of this committee it is necessary, by the existing law, that the President should be a member. Its report, or rather the ad dress proposed by it, is always discussed with closed doors. According to all present appearance this deliberation will not take place before the Bth or 10th of March. " It is stated in the Conslitulionnel of this morn ing, and I have reason from other sources to believe in the accuracy of the statement, thut General Bourmont has been definitively appointed Com mander-in-Chief of the expedition against Algiers. It is remarked as extraordinary among the military men that several officers who have formerly com manded in chief are on this occasion to serve under General Bourmont, who has never before enjoyed a supreme command. It is also observed, that of all the General Officers appointed to act under him, two only, Generals Clauzel and Hurel, have ever before been engaged in any trans-marine service. The Chief of the Staff is to be Lieut.- General Desprcz. The Commanders of divisions, Lieut.-Generals Clauzel, Berthezene, Pellepunt, and the Duke d'Escars; Commanders of brigades, Major-Generals Ciouet, Montlivault, Berthier, De Lauvigny, lligonet, Rapatel, Colon d'Arcine, d'Hautpoul, and Hurel. The command of the En gineers is entrusted to Major-General Valaze, and that of the Artillery to Major-General Lal►itte. " The army will be composed of forty battalions of infantry, eight of which will be taken from the Royal Guard, and of six squadrons of cavalry. It will be provided with a battering train of 100 guns, 40 field-pieces, and two mouths' provisions.— M. Deniee, Military Intendant-in-Chief, will be placed at the head of the commissariat department. Great activity is displayed in the military prepara tions, but it is understood that many serious ob stacles remain to be encountered at the sea-ports." " PARIS, era. 17. " The accounts this morning from all the principal sea ports announce the greatest activity in the preparation of the armament destined to act against Algiers. The centre of the operations is to be at Toulon, which is also to be the point of departure. At that port the most urgent orders have arrived for instantly arming La Provence, Le Breslau), Le Sipion, and La Ville de Marsal ships of the line, and five sixty-gun frigates, L'lphigenie, L'Aniphitrite, La Didon, La Pallas, and La Tliemis. As the frigates are to be armed en flute, they are probably to be used only in the conveyance of tamps. Brest, also, is to furnish four ships of the line and six frigates, and L'Orient and Rochefort an equal proportion. In the different arsenals the workmen are incessantly occupied in the construction of Congreve rockets, the orders for Which have been given to the end of April. The owners of the merchant vessels are also every where actively en gaged in preparing for the expected orders fur the addi tional transports which will be necessary. M. De!care, Capitaine de Frigate, has already been sent in La Fled,* gnn-brig, to take up transports of large tonnage in the ports of Italy. The brig Le Dillyent,commanded by M. Caribou, Capitaine de Frigate, has also /seen despatched toAlexandria. The nature of his commission is not accurately known, but it is understood to have reference to the arrangements which formerly, at least, iucluded the Pacha as an auxili ary. Some accounts say that the mission of M. Garibon is to hasten the Paella's preparations, while by ethers it is believed that he is charged to break off the Egptian ne gociation, in a belief that a resolution has recently been formed that the expedition should be exclusively French. " Private letters from St. Petersbnrgh, of the 30th of J inuary, announce that the Emperor of Russia had been at Cronstadt un the .25th, to visit the ports, inspect the vessels which are wintering there, the magazines, the fire establishment, the naval hospital, and the companies of workmen who are in barracks in the town. " accounts from Bucharest of the 23d of January, it is stated that in spite of the severity of the winter, they continue to labour in the organization of their military force. They speak of it as no easy task to create a body of troops i❑ a country which they describe as destitute of all resources; and say that the obstacles opposed to them would have been ilisurmountable but for the assistance of the Emperor, their august protector, and the zealous co operation of their Governor, General Kisseletr. The Ern_ peror had presented them with a considerable part of the materiel and munitions of war which his troops had taken in the places conquered from the Turks. The whole is to be divided between Moldavia and Wallachia, in propor tion to their respective wants. Provisional arsenals have already been formed at Bucharest and at Jassy, fur the re- ception of 20,000 stand of arms, which will be removad to their destination as soon as the mails are practicable. "It appears that an extensive establishment had been set on foot at Kiachta, on the Chinese frontier, in for the tanning of Russian leather, which it is said in letters from that place of the I2th of December last, is now pro ceeding prosperously, an excellent outlet having been found for its produce in the interior of China. " The Duke de Levis died yesterday in Paris suddenly, at the age of 62. He bad been long as much distinguished by his talents and acquirements in the world of letters as by his birth in the French Peerage. His Travels in Eng hnd, his Itfaximes et Pens&s, and his published Ro mances, are well known on both sides of the channel. It is understood that he has left a collection of valuable papers in readiness for publication. He is succeeded in the Peerage by his son, the Duke de Ventadour, Aide-de- Camp to the Dauphin. " I have just seen a letter from Havre, which states that all the seamen of that port, and at Fecamp, and Dieppe, who could be laid hold of, bare been forcibly en rolled in the royal service, and that the merchant vessels have been left without halide. The French ship owners begin to be apprehensive that the Americans will be able to underbid them in contracting for the transport of the troops. " A report is current at the Bourse, of a serious insur rection among the negroes of Guadaloupe, instigated, it is said, by emissaries from Hayti." A spirited Debate took place, last night, in the House of Commons, on the motion of the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER (in a Com mittee of Supply), "that the sum of 3,015,0331. be granted to his MAJESTY for the maintenance of the land service for the year commencing the 25th December, 1829, to the 25th December, 1830." Sir H. PARNELL, in reply to an ob servation of the CHANCELLOR of the Ex- CHEQUER that the whole retrenchable expen diture of the country amounted to less than 12,000,0001., stated that there was 25,000,0001. which was subject to diminution. Mr. HUME followed up this statement, and in a speech characterized by unusual earnestness, dwelt on the universal distress of the country, on the re luctance of the House to award even the com monest measure of justice to the people, and concluded by expressing his belief that the time was not far distant when the spirit of the nation would be roused to obtain redress, and the Ministry would be brought to a sense oftheir duty. Mr. PEEL replied to these and similar remarks of the Hon. Member at some length, and with considerable energy. For our own parts we should prefer to see fewer " sayings" and more " doings" in the House. The season is one of peculiar and aggravated difficulty, and demands not a promise of retrenchment, but the actual retrenchment itself. That Ministers are de sirous to take every feasible opportunity of lightening the burdens of the country, we most sincerely believe ; still we think they have not yet gone far enough in the good work. A considerable reduction in those taxes which press the heaviest on the agricultural, commercial, and manufacturing population, may be made with infinite advantage to the community, and no de triment to the power or patronage of Govern. ment ; for what power, however bolstered up by artificial means, can match for security, cha racter, or duration, that which is derived from the sympathy, gratitude, and admiration of the people at large ? TIIE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. This morning is less productive of arrivals and infor mation than for several days past.

The Reach snail which has come to hand has already been anticipated. Report says that the Chambers will not last longer than about three months, and the French Budget will, soon after the opening, be brought forward, and hUrried through both Howes ; also, that great oppo sition is expected against the present Ministry.

HARVEY, BART., M.P.—We regret to state that this gallant officer expired between one and two o'clock on Saturday last, at his seat, Rolls-park, Rear Chigwell, Essex. The gallant Admiral's second daughter, EMMA, was married only the Tuesday previous, so that the bridal apparel had not lost its freshness when it was exchanged fur sable mourning. Three candidates have already been mentioned as likely to contest the honour of representing the county,—viz. Cul. BRAMSON, Of Skreens; Ronmar W ESTLEY HALL DARE, Esq., of CranbroJk, near Ilford ; and Mr. CoNvmts,ithe gentleman who played so prominent a character at the late county meeting. At present we do not think fit to hazard on opinion on the relative claims of these gentlemen: many well-informed persons assert that Mr. DARit's suc cess admits of no doubt, if he choose to start. Ilowever, it is probable that we may be able to speak with more con fidence on the subject in our next nundeer.—Kent ara Essex Mercury.

TATTERSALI The 11.1Asryx of the Rom.s gave judgment in this case, which was a hill ti'ed by an assignee under the Insolvent Debtors' Apt. His Honour hail looked through the several acts upon the subject. all of which agreed in declaring that th! assets of the insolvent debtor, if more than sufficient to sati,.fy all his debt, at his death, should be applied in discharge of those debts from which the insolvent had been relieved by the operation of the Insolvent Act. The law, however, prescribed a particular mode in which that remedy was to be had, which particular mode had not been adopted in the present casr, ani the question was, whether the general declaration that the overplus assets at the death of the insolvent were liable to 'his previous debts, would give a title which would authorise a Court of Equity to administer those assets ac cording to its own mode of proceeding ; the Court felt bound to say that it would do so just the same as in an ordinary case. The insolvent had taken the benefit of the Act no less than twice ; and as to the mode in which his creditors should be paid, the Court thought the proper course to pursue would be to pay those creditors hat who claimed under the first act. JI:DCIMENT.-COLLINS V. ARCHER. His HoNowt also gave judgment in this case, in which a Mr. Goddard, the Rector of the parish of Castle Eaton, in the year 1811, charged the rectory for a valuable consideration with an annuity of 5501., and he also de mised the rectory for the better security of this annuity for the term of 99 years. In the year 1814, he also made a demise to the defendant Archer, of the glebe lands belong ing to the rectory, and also the tithes of certain lands which were the property of Archer, and in his occupation. The present bill was filed for the satis faction of the arrears of the annuity out of those tithes, which were, as the plaintiff contended, due from the de fendant in respect of his lands. The defendant, in his answer, insisted that he was a purchaser for valuable con sideration, without notice of the prior charge created by Mr. Goddard. His Honour was clearly of opinion that such a plea from a person standing in the situation in which Archer did, was of no avail, and the Court was fully borne out in that opinion by the case of Wilson and Lamb. That being the opinion of the Court the only question was, from what precise period the account should be taken of the tithes due from Archer to the plaintiff. In a case of this nature a Court of Equity and a Court of Law had concurrent jurisdiction, and in asmuch as in a Court of Law the plaintiff would certainly recover the arrears of those tithes for the period of six years back, so his Honour thought iu Equity he was en titled to recover them from the same period, and ordered the a:count to be taken from that period. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT. nrJuNCTION.—ILLIOTT V. TME GOVERNOR AND COMPANY OF TYE BANE OF I' LAND. Mr. Wlnnam applied for a special injunction to re strain the defendants, the widow, and two of the legitimate children of Colonel Murray, together with the Bank of England, from disposing of 21,000/. Three per Cents. Colonel Murray, by his will, made in the year 1511, di rected the residue of his estates to be equally divided among his legitimate and illegitimate children, and in pur suance of that direction a sum of 21,000/. was invested in the 3 per Cents. as the residue of his estate. In the year 1827 Colonel Murray's widow became desirous that the whole of this 21,000/. should be placed under her controul, to which the executors ultimately agreed, pro vided Colo❑el Murray's two natural children should be connected with her in that trust, which was complied with, and the fund was transferred into their names where it remained standing. At the latter end of the last year notice was given to the executors that it was the intention of the widow and the two legitimate children of Colonel Murray to sell out the fund, and make other use of it. In consequence of this a distringas was laid upon it. On the 16th of the present month the whole of the plaintiffs received notice that it was the intention of the defendants not to allow the distringas, to prevent them fro►n transferring the fund, which they should immedi ately proceed to do, unless prevented by the injunction o, the Court. In consequence of this, the plaintiff's illegiti mate children filed their bill, asking the Court for its in junction. All the facts the learned Counsel had stated were supported by affidavits. His lioNouit thought the clients of Mr. Wigram enti tled to the injunction, upon the facts he had stated, and accordingly granted it. COURT OF KING'S BENCH. OWEN V. MILDMAY. The plaintiff in this case is a silk-mercer, in London, and the defendant a clergyman, holding a living in the Isle of Wight. The action was brought to recover the suns of 9/., the balance of an account for goods sold in the year 1820. The defendant pleaded the Statute of Limitations. In support of the plaintiff's claim, evidence was adduced to prove that repeated application had be4n made to Mr. Mildinay for pa►ment, and also that lie had paid part of the account within six years of the action being- brought. Lord TENTERDEN held, that if part of a debt was paid within six years, it was an acknowledgement sufficient to deprive the party of pleading the Statute of Limitation. A verdict was consequently returned for the plaintiff— Damages 9/. NUTTING U. NICHOLSON., This was also an aefon to recover a balance of accounts. The plaintiff is a button manufacturer, and at defendant's request supplied a quantity of buttons to a regiment of Local Militia, of which Mr. Nicholson was captai❑ and adjutant. The defendant pleaded the general i,sue, and also the Statute of Limitations. It was proved, however, that the plaintiff had within six years paid 10/. on account, and, therefore, according to the decision in the preceding cause, could not take advantage of his plea.—Verdict for the plaintiff. number of other causes were disposed of during the morning; those that were not undefended did not possess the least public interest. MONDAY. lIORDLR V. NORCOTT. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said this was an action brought by his client, who was a professor of music, and who also taught dancing, against Dlr. Norcott, an attor ney, for having seduced his client's wife. The Jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff—Da. wages, 500/. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. DOUNSFIELD AND CO. C. WIGHTMAN. This was an action on a bill of exchrtnge for 50/., dated the 23d of April, 1828, and drawn at three months. Serjeant WILDS stated the ease, which was after wards detailed in evidence ; he said the only question the Jury were to try was, whalier the defendant had given authority to have his name put on the bill, which the de foolant then denied. The evidence adduced on the trial proved that authority was given to a Mr. Syki s to use his name on the bill, which afterwards got into the plaintiffs' hands. There being no witness, s fur the defence, the Jury im mediately returned a veidict for the plaintiffs—Daulag e . 1 ls. HIGH COURT OF ADMIRALTY. THE ZEPHERINA. Dr. DODSON stated that he appeared on the part of the commatukr and crew of his Majesty's ship Sybißr, to claim a part of the proceeds of the Zepherina, a slave ship, captured on the coast of Africa. From the statement of the Learned Counsel it appeared that his Majesty's ship Primroxe, and a tender, the Black Joke, manned from the Primrose, were also in chase of the slave ship. The Primrose and Sybille came up after a hard chase with the Zepkerina, and the Primrose having fired at the slave vessel, site struck - . The Primrose claimed the pro ceeds, to which however the commander and crew of the Sybille laid claim. The Lords of the Admiralty had been memorialized on the part of the Syb►lle, but their Lordships referred the matter to the Court of Admiralty, there being a point at law to dveide upon on an Order in Council relative to captures. The King's Advocate contended, that if the claim were unsettled, a new principle would be introduced in the practise of the Court. A very lung discussion took place on the facts, but the Judge thought that as the case was an important one, it should be postponed till next Court-day to have the facts more propel ly stated in the libel. The Court then wljourned.

Neither of Sir Mark Wood's two were in any request—Cetus, indeed, fell back a couple of points, 14 to 1 being the last offers refused. Some out siders were backed, but the betting generally was limited in amount, and unproductive of any important results. Three fresh mares were barked for the Oaks. Mouche and Maria were also in force, the latter in particular. In the Riddlesworth 3 to 1 was offered on the field, and offers to take 4 to I—bar one; Mahmoud and Cressida are the favouritcs, but it is difficult to say which is first; ever on the field agst two, and plenty willing 5 to 4 ; 5 to 1 agst any, bar Mahmoud and Cressida.

MEETING AT TILE MANSION HOUSE.- After a long discussion on the state of the country, in which Messrs. WA ITII NI N, HUNT, and NICHOLSON, were the chief speakers, a petition praying Parliament to institute an enquiry into the causes of the present distress in the country, and to adopt such measures as may best tend to an effectual and speedy removal of the same, vas proposed and carried. Sumburgh-head, in Shetland, during the late gales, was visited with a kind of sand -flood, which for days drifted in clouds over Sumburgh-head ; and great heaps of sand have also been lodged at the Mansion-house of Sumbmgla (the Jarlshof of the Pirate), and although the site of the Light-house is SO feet above the level of the sea, yet the sprays were carried over the house in such quantities, as to detroy the water collected iu tanks from the roof, obliging the keepers to supply themselves by cartage from a distance.—Edinburgh Evening Courant.

The debate in the House of Commons on the Army Estimates, last night, assumed a more inte resting character than it could derive from any of the calculations of political arithmetic, by rather art animated collision between Mr. Hume and the Right Hon. Secretary for the Home Department. The former gentleman, in allusion to the vote for the land forces, which amounted to 3,015,3:33/. for the present year, and to which he had proposed an amendment, observed, " When the House of Com mons acted in this way from within, force was to be expected from without, as the only mode of obtain ing redress." He also stated, the " from all he had already seen, his only hope was that the people would take matters into their own hands ;" with some other expressions equally forcible, which pro duced no slight sensation in the House. Mr. Peel severely animadverted upon this language, arid, em phatically addressing the Speaker, said, " Sir, the Hon. Gentleman has made an appeal to the physical force of the country, under circumstances under which I never heard an appeal of the kind made, and which, in my opinion, reflects the utmost discredit upon the man who can play upon such instruments, and who, while securing himself, can excite those whom he calls a distressed and starving population to acts of force arid violence, and says t I, who instigate you to rebellion' (for it is nothing less), C I am not only safe myself from the penalties of high treason, but I will take care to make this appeal in a place in which ever' his Ma jesty's Attorney-General cannot lay hold of what 1 say.'—Why, Sir, let me ask, what would be the re stilt of such an appeal ? Could the Government, in that case, have any ether alternative but that of meeting physical force with a decided, successful, and unqualified resistance ?" After some other ex pressions equally strong in reprobation of Mr. Home's language, the Right Honourable Secretary said, " Sir, I cannot venture to trust myself further on this subject—my feelings are really too much excited by language of the nature which I have heard, and I deprecate too strongly the success of such an appeal to be able to inter further into detail." This, it must be admitted, was a discussion calculated to break in upon the dullness of a finantrial debate, and disturb the repose of those Hon. Gentlemen who enjoy their slum bers while the expenditure of millions is d;scussed, and awaken to assist the public service vs ith their votes. It must be stated that Mr. Hume di , claimed some of the colouring which the Right Hon. Secre tary gave to his words, though he stated that he would not retract any thing which he had actually expressed. We hope no such crisis as that to which Mr. Hume was supposed to advert will ever arise in this country. We trust that there arc constitutional energies sufficient to redress the grievances of the country without any appeal to a means of renovation more apt to destroy than to re-construet—rnore to desolate than reform. We cannot think that Mr. Hume meant violence by popular redress, or that he had any intention of instigating the people to rebellion. If Mr. Hume was chargeable with intemperance of language, certainly Mr. Peel dis played any thing but that calculating coolness for which lie has been generally distinguished, which made Colonel Davies say that, if a total loss of temper showed which party had the worst of the argument, his Hon. Friend behind him (Mr. Hume) was not one who had to lament his defeat. We need scarcely add that Mr. Hume's amendment was lost. In a subsequent part of the debate Mr. Hume returned to the subject, and made a most determined arid energetic retort upon the Right Honourable Secretary. Ile denied the charge of having endeavoured to excite the physical force from without the House ; but "he would ask that Right Honourable Gentleman, who had de nounced him as a violent agitator and ex citer of the people, whether it was lie was the agi tator, or the Government and that Right Ho nourable Gentleman, who closed their ears to the complaints and sufferings of the people i Was not the Government, in such a case, prompted people to rebellion, if rebellion it could be deemed to refuse to submit to starvation ? That starving population, he believed, would not touch longer bear the enormous load of taxation imposed on them by Government and that House. As to the ques tion of physical force, as arrayed against excessive taxation, the Right Hon. Gentleman knew, as well us he, that had more than once been tried with very serious results." He then proceeded to defend him self from the charge of having " sheltered himself under the protection of the privileges of the House, like a coward, to assert that which he dare not say elsewhere without being implicasted in a charge of a treasonable nature."—Thus the storm which com menced the first night of the Session still blows with unabated vehemence, nor, in the present state of things without the House, is it likely that there will soon be a calm within.—Morning We really do not well know to-day to what par ticular article in our paper we ought to direct the attention of our readers—whether to the proceed iNgs in Parliament, to the Northumberland County Meetings, or to the Meeting at the Mansion Hone ; for all are deeply important, and we must, in conse quence, commend all to the careful consideration of our readers.—To begin with the last on eta' list, the Meeting at the Mansion-Howse, both as expressing' the thoughts and feelings of the whole trading body of the metropolis, and as expressing their thoughts and feelings in the most vigorous and energetic lan-- page, was truly important, and roust tend to tlititliV far and wide the general discontent at the present condition of the country. All who attended the Meeting were not only highly respectable in point of character, but w ealthy else, and intimately con elected with the trade of the country. Tire spirit, however, which p e rvad e d i t — a spirit which way with equal vigour and re-echoed last ni g ht in the g rca lues t, l qc e of ourae Co b 7llo lNr ns i t . Hume—is still more alarming then the speechre which were delivered at it. The discontent was I‘eetit ig eqtraell example. deserves the care- The Nor not only general but loud, and the w ant o f faith in the Legislature evinced in a mower of whi c h we °brecollecteii.anrd 1n o p r evious on of o ur rea d ers.

It is characterized throughout by greet mo deration and sound sense, and developes with clear ness and perspicuity the mischievous effects which have resulted from the Currency Bill of ISI9. Lastly, with regard to th eproceedings in the House of Commons, it will be seen that several divisions took place—all of course in favour of extravagance— and that there was a very warm rencontre between Mr. Peel and Mr. Hume, in which the former came off second best. We refrain from making ;my cam meets at present, but cannot conclude without ce treating the attention of our readers to that portiun of the debate. ..3./urninz Advertiser.
