This day closes the year 1830—a year which dates a new era in the march of time and pro gress of humanity to that goal of civilization— Liberty—and happiness, which is the great aim of our being. The year 1830 stands forth to posterity as the birth-time of a Revolution in the moral as well as the political destiny of man ! and it will hereafter be termed the year of Revolution, Reform, and Renovation !—a year pregnant with blessings to generations yet unborn. And to what miracle is this Ausiciouit—eilingg-04/04.1.0 assuredly to the march of mind, and the "con sequent triumph of public opinion. It is the glorious working of this principle that has achieved public liberty in France—that has con quered freedom in Belgium—that now asserts independence in Poland, and is at this moment bursting forth in Switzerland---Prussia—Ger many —ltaly—till the torch of liberty relume the nations from the Alps to the Pyrennees—and the voice of joy and gratulatiou be heard from one extremity of Europe to the other. In England how remarkable has been the change as contrasted with other years—though distress pervades the land, yet that distress is only the consequence of that expiring policy which had accumulated so much misery by a concatenation of bad laws—worse administered —by unwarrantable, because unconstitutional, privileges, for the benefit of one class at the expense of all the rest—by monopoly on the one hand and deprivation on the other—till, driven to desperation by the force of circumstances alone, the whole nation, as if by one accord, anti with unanimous voice, de mand that Reform which had been so often promised to their car but broken to their hope ! A new reign has commenced, and a new 11/linistry promises to make that reign propi tious I Public opinion asserts its undoubted right, and the march of the Schoolmaster dif fuses gratitude because it convinces reason. The might of the people is felt, b u t so too is their moderation acknowledged to be greater than their power ! The days of patronage arc gone by, and the people of this country rely with confidence in the justice of the KING and the wisdom of his Ministers. They hope for gradual but certain improvement in the institutions of the country, which can only be respected so long as they are beneficial. They look to the asser tion of general, not particular liberty— the independence of the many—not the tyranny of the few ;—the advancement of true religion —not the canting hypocrisy of odious, worldly, and unchristian pluralism; in short, to the liberty of conscience and right opinion in all matters appertaining to the civil as well as to the religious duties of man. Let us hope that the year 1830 has seen the downfall of tyranny and superstition, and the day star of peace arise to gladden the nations ; and that it bequeaths to its successor the happy con summation of that freedom, for the attainment of which so much blood has been shed, and so much treasure been sacrificed. By the Prussian State Gazette of the 24th instant, we have news from Warsaw to the 20th, from which it appears that although a deputation had been sent to St. Petersburgh, yet unremit• ting preparations were making to put the capital in the best state of defence. An express had arrived from St. Petersburgh, stating that the EMPEROR was resolved on immediate measures for suppressing the << rebellion." But notwith standing this, the communication between Russia and Poland was thrown open by order of the Russian Authorities. The Warsaw Gazette states, that on the news being received of the EMPEROR having ordered the division of Gene ral POSEN to advance, the DICTATOR sent word to that General, that if he crossed the Polish frontiers, the Polish army would immediately advance to meet him. If this be so, we may shortly expect to hear of a bloody battle. The PO ish Diet was opened on the 18th, when the Marshal or President on his election immediately set a generous example to his countrymen by offering a contribution of 30,000 florins towards the wants of the State. All the Deputies instantly followed, each subscribing ac cording to his ability. The Chamber of Senators also followed this patriotic example. Nay, more, as if this were not enough to excite the national enthusiasm, the Chamber of Deputies resolved to go on the following day in civil uniform, and personally assist in throwing up the entrench ments at Praga for the defence of the suburbs. While the Poles exhibit such marks of devotion to the cause of liberty, and are true to themselves, there need be little fear for the independence of their country. The recognition of Belgium is a great point gained to their cause. That the Emperor of RUSSIA places little confidence in the army of Lithuania may be inferred from the fact that they are ordered into the interior ! WARSAW, Dxc. 20.—Our Jonnalls from the 17th to the 20th contain the following news:— " On: Thursday, the 16th, Colonel Ilaulre, Aide-de- Camp to his 51,kjesty the Emperor of Russia, arrived here from St. Petersburgb with despatches, according to which his Majesty, immediately on receiving the news of the troubles here, issued his orders to the Council of Admi nistration, to act in every thing according to the directions ' of his Imperial Highness the Cesarowit,sch. Considering the subsequent course of events, and that the deputation which set out on the 10th from Warsaw is commissioned to represent to his Majesty the real state of things, in con sequence of which, as it is thought, other directions may, perhaps, he given by his Majesty, the Dictator and the Provisional Government have, in their answer to his Ma jesty, referred to the statement to be made by the depu tation, and wait for his further decisions. The depu tation is said to have arrived on the 15th, at midnight, on the Polish frontier town of Tarespol, where, by command of his Imperial Highness the Cesarewitsch, every facility for proceeding on the journey was afforded. "On the 16th, too, an express brought to the Bauk the news that the communication between the Russian frontier station of Kauen, and that of Alexda, on our side, which was interrupted on the Bth, by order of the Russian authorities, was opened again on the 12th ; so that letters, goods, and travellers provided with passports, are permitted to pass without hindrance, as well from Russia to Poland as from Poland to Russia. On the news, however, that his Majesty the Emperor had ordered the corps of General Posen to enter Poland, the Dictator (according to the Warsaw Gazette of today) sent his aid-de-camp to that General to declare to him, that as soon as the Russian army passed the frontier of Poland, he should immediately give orders to the Polish troops to advance. It is said here that the Lithuanian corps in Russia is ordered to withdraw from the Polish frontiers. Its place will be supplied by the corps of Generals Sacken and Pahlen. "On the leth the two Chambers of the Diet met in the usual place of their sitting, in the Royal Palace. After previous consultation with the Dictator and the Provi sional Government, it was resolved; in the preparatory sitting, that the formal opening of the Diet should take place on the 21st. They then. proceeded to choose a Marshal of the Diet, and their choice fell unanimously on Wladislaw Oitrowski, Deputy front the district of Po trikau. As soon as the Marshal's Staff was handed to him, he offered to the Chamber a contribution of 30,000 florin, towards the wants of the State. All the Depu ties immediately followed his example, each according to his ability. The Chamber of Senators followed his example, and then joined the other Chamber. The Mar shal acquainted the Chamber of Senator. with his election, esseiet phr eamest ens*, Of she , ,Chessobier, end oleo *bee isli first act had been the format recognition of the insurrec tion, and invited the Senate to follow this example, which it immediately did, by the (organ of the President. Lastly, it was agreed to adjourn till Tuesesy. The Chamber of Deputies also resolved, that all its Members should go on the following day, in civil uniform, to Pragn, and there assist in throwing up the entrenchments for the defence of the suburbs. According to his previous declarations, the Dictator, as soon us the Diet was opened, resigned his authority► to the representatives of the country, of which be informed the inhabitants of the capital by a prodamation. General Szembeck will take the command•in-chief of the vanguard ; General Woyerzywki will succeed him as Governor of the city. General Palkowski is said to be on his way hither. Five new batteries of field artillery will he organized in a few days. Increased exertions are made to strengthen the fortifications of the capital beyond the Vistula. The inhabitants of the district of Aliechow presented to the Provisional Government an address, dated the 13th, signed by 200 citizens, in which they offer their services as scythe-bearers. Divine service for forty hours, for the happy restoration of tranquillity, began here today. In the Jewish elementary schools instructions were given all la►t.creek as usual. On the 17th an important and interesting action was brought before the Criminal Court of Masuvia, against several persons formerly holding office in the Waiworlship of Cracow, who ate accused of peculation in their office; the defalcation amounts to 200,000 florins.

The following are extracts from Hamburg, Dutch, and German Papers. It would appear that the Polish insurrection was conceived so far back us 1828, and only waited for a proper op portunity. The Hungarians are asking them selves, what have the Belgians done ?—and what are the Poles now doing ? The Hungarian levy refuses to march I—What next?— FRONTIERS or HUNGARY, Dsc. 14.—Reeitits the regiments already on their march to the Polish frontiers, the, regiments Saline, Albrecht, and D. Miguel, and se veral battalions of the Transylvania frontier regiments, are ordered to Ga 114,6, The Hungarians have not yet taken any steps towards the levy of recruits. The reason is the following t—The States, before they granted the levy, requested the Emperor, that in commanding the Hungarian troops tlie Hungarian language might be used instead of the German, which, in order to attain the ob ject aimed at, was partly promised them. As obstac!ett appear to have arisen to the fulfilmrnt of these promises, the States have resolved that the levy shall not commence till the *beta:des are removed. Besides this main con diion, the Diet will request the Emperor, who will shortly come to Prrsburg, to promise not to put any Ger man officers in the Hungarian regiments, and to let their regiments be eantoned in their own country. WARsAw, Dec este e N. 16. —The Warsaw courier, number 895, has a supplement and a narrative df Peter Wisoteki, Second Lieutenant in the Military . Schools in which he gives a detailed report of the origin of the present Polish Revolution. It appears that be formed a conspiracy so far back as December Is, 1828, which at first consisted of himself and five young Lieutenants : K. Parchkiewitch, K. Dubrowolooki, K. Karnitzki, A. Laski, and J. Gorowski. Their number gradually in. created, and they proceeded with great caution. The Polish Diet gave that an opportunity to extend their so ciety. The most distinguished persons belonged to it ; among them was General Niemtechewitsch, who was killed. The time for the breaking out of the conspiracy was several times fixed, but obstacles always arose. The present explosion was the work of short consultatienomd the power of the conspirators already so great, that the plan could herdly fail. BERLIN, DEC. 21.—1 t is confidently affirmed that two Monarchs closely allied will have an Interview at Thorn. A proclamation of the Emperor Nicholas is said to have bees received here, in which the most energetic measur es to suppress the insurrection in Poland are ennouuced. THE HAGUE, Dxc. 26.—Letters from Frankfort say, that the Diet has called on the King of Hanover to protect the Grand Duchy of Luxemburg with troop, and that a carps of the Hanoverian army may be shortly expected. Laudan is to be formally given up in the course of next month to the German Confederation, and gar. 'donned in its name.

It is stated that Sir HussEY VIVIAN is to succeed Sir JOHN BYNG, as Commander of the Forces in Ireland. On the presentation of the Trades' Address to Mr. O'CONNELL on Monday last, a singular circumstance occurred. At the very moment that the deputation • was approaching the statue of King WILLI AM, the Marquis of A NOE. ESE A , accompanied by a single servant, on horseback, suddenly made his appearance in the midst of the crowd, who, thus taken by surprise—the leaders of the procession having evidently for gotten to tutor them as to their conduct in the event of such an improbable occurrence—gave vent to the natural impulse of their feelings, and cheered the Noble Marquis with as much, if not more, enthusiasm, than they dis played towards Mr. O'Corm.m. on the occasion of his late entry into Dublin. This, which was a coup d'etat of the first order, was, of course, gall and wormwood to the " mighty agitator"---and, accordingly, notwith standing tits acknowledged tact and experience, •Ite.eoukl not, when, adverting to the circum stance, conceal his mortification. u I have now to thank you," he observed, addressing the de putation from his balcony, " for your conduct to Lord ANGLESEA, as he rode amongst you in your progress here.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. Accounts this morning, by the mail from Paris, state that the King of Prussia was going to publish a constitution on the ISth of January, and that the news which had ar rived from the North was favourable ; that the Russian troops were marching but slowly on Poland. The information frotn Cobstantinople of the 26th of November states that every thing was tranquil there, and the Sultan was occupied in the discipline of his troops, re pairing of the places which were damaged by the Rus sians, and that it was his intention to expend a large sum on the fortifications of 'Varna and Adrianople ; also to m.tke great and extensive intretichments at the foot of the Balkan mountains, under the direction of a French Colonel, who is at present at Constantinople. Montreal Papers have been received at the North and South American Coffee-house to the 26th Nov. All they contain is, that a meeting was held at York on the 231, to take into consideration the propriety of petitioning the Upper Canada Legislature for an inesprporation of the town, and for an extent of its limits. A Lisbon Mail has arrived, which sailed on the 17th December; also a Malta Mail, which sailed on the 4th December, and from Gibraltar the 17th December. TUX FUNDS. By the titillate from Paris this morning it is stated that the French Rentes come much higher than the last prices, 621. 30e., which has had an effect on our Funds.

Lafitte's speech, received by the express . from Paris, is looked on in the City to be of importance. It expltins every thing that the French nation and Foreign Powers could expect. It says, that the non-intervention will inspire the Fiweigii Powers with confidence, and that the great (potion respecting Belgium, which was apprehend e d would lead to a war, is decided, as the live great Powers have s4ned its independence, and that during the negotiations the Powers had ttken up ar m s with a view to !WM ity rather than aggression. It also states that a plot was in agitation to.overthrow the present King, and establish a It , publican Government.

Among the many things of the day that occasion sur prise, few are more likely to excite that feeling than the sudden appearance of the new town of St. Leonard's, on the Sussex coast, little more than a mile west of Hastings, which, though not commenced above two years, already affords accommodatita far superior to many that have long held a prAninent station among our fashionable places of r,sort. St. Leonard's, built on a regular plan, already presents a splendid facade of holdings, exceeding half a mile in length, with an admirable parade fronting the sea, hotels with superior accommodation, that of "St. Leonard's' even of magnificent structure, shops, baths, libraries, ass sembly-rooms, with all the attendant conveniences ; and above all, a numerous and highly respectable society, where the charms of social intercourse are enjoyed in a degree equalled by few other places. The festivities of the present season have been kept up with more than usual spirit, and on Tuesday la 4 the bachelors gave a splendid ball to the ladies, which was attended by upwards of two hundred persons, including all the principal residents, many of the leading families from flamingo, and the neighbouring country, sad a numerous party of the Officers of the Guards, at present on duty at Brighton ; the supper Was served in the billiard rooms, by Bunsow, of St. Leonard's 'lute', in his best style ; quadrilles, waltzes, cotillons, and galloppades, were kept up till five in the morning, and previous to the departure of the company the gallantry of their entertainers provided a second supper, or dejeuni, for ladies. To those who only two years since recollect the site of St. Leonard's, a lone cliff on the coast, the present town on a first view seems to have arisen by some mugic in fluence. The tout ensemble reflects infinite credit on the judgment, taste, and enterprise of the founder, while the peculiar salubrity of the situation, combined with its other advantages, leave no doubt St. Leonard's will become, or rather continue, a favourite place of resort in the Winter as well as shy Summtr season. ACTIVITY...--Lord BROUGHAM sat in the Gina of Chancery on Thursday morning, at nine o'clock, he remained till four, when he went to the House of Lords, where he stopped until six o'clock, and at seven he was on his road to Westmoreland, Lord TENTERDEN has withdrawn his name from the Select Vestry of St. Giles in the Fields and St. George, Bloomsbury. Some interest is excited in the City as to the state of the Revenue, this Quarter now approaching to close. The general understanding among mercantile men is, that there will be a considerable deficiency, but not so large as some reports circulated within the list week have stated it to be. Judging from what we hear, in the Excise and Customs' Departments, we should think it probable that the de•faciein) does not exceed 800,00 W., and, if so, the official return will not operate prejudicially on the public securities..--Morning chronicle. A. very itnportant point which the moneyed interest are most I lesivms of ascertaining, and to which their attention is more especially directed, is, whether Ministers will or will not submit a measure to Parliament, after the recess, for the funding of Exchequer Bills. Mr. 'JEFFREY, the new Lord Advocate, has become a candidate for the Cupir district of burghs, and has already made sure of Perth and St. Andrew's. Dun dee would also support him were its vote good ; but this is rather a delicate question, and from all we can learn the main struggle will lie in Cupar.—Dumfries Courier. Among the more personal causes always mixed up with public ones, which led to the movement iu Poland, we may mention the cruelty of the Grand Duke to a poor woman who stood in the way of his troops at a review last year, whom he beat with his own hands, This brutality, one of many, sunk deep into the minds of the people of Warsaw. Ilia rudeness, and the Emperor's coldness to the Senate at the coronation, together with his insisting on crowning himself, disgusted the nobles.-.that is, the whole gentry.

In proportion as public interest was excited by the determination of the Committee, in May last, ' respecting the right of voting in the Port of Rye, so was the surprise felt by most persons at the re versul of that determination on Saturday, the 18th instant, by the Committee of Appeal appointed to re-hear the question ; and nothing can more strongly prove the present defective state of the law for determining rights of election, than the mode in n hieh this case has been dealt with. It would naturally be supposed that, according to all usual practice, a Committee of Appeal, being from its very essence a superior tribunal, would be composed of indivi duals possessing greater talent, or more competent to form a judgment of the matter in dispute, than that whose decision they are called upon to *Arm or reverse, and more especially at their determination (according to the GRENVILLE Act) is to settle the right of election for ever. But how lamentably is the fact at variance with this natural supposition ! • Instead of any additional pains being bestowed in forming a Committee of Appeal, the members of it rt to are taken at random from the general body of the House; and, if many Committees have been pre viously balloted for,it may be composed of Memb ers , least accustomed to habits of business, and least com petent to determine upon the vital questions be bought before them. At the beat c .it 1Y en • appeal from CESAR to CESAR; but it inky be ittfis nitely worse—for the solemn decisions of expel kneed, highly.talented, and able individuals may be sub jected to the revision of others far less competent to form a correct judgment, and rights of election esta- . blished by County Members may be destroyed for ever, by the partial views of those alrilittfor the must notoriously rotten boroughs in the kiOltdoto. It is not for us to make any invidious comparisons between the Members which composed the Rye Election Committee in May last, and that which has just reverted its decision; but, in order to prove the serious anomaly we have been etideuvourini to point out, it will be sufficient, in the fitst place, to state, that the former comprised the names of Lord PALMERSTON, Sir TROAIAS ACLAND, Mr. Wit.surr HORTON, and Mr. BItAMSTONE, the late Member for Essex, and then to show the different reqilts which the two Committees came to upon the same species of evidence. The Committee which sat in May last determined the right of toting for the Port to be in the Mayor, Jtirats, and freemen, such freemen being duly ad- mitted and sworn as Barons and freemen of the town, according to ancient usage and to the privi leges granted to the town by Royal Charter. The Committee of Appeal has virtually, as we shell presently observe, determined the right to he only in members of the Corporation. The former declared that according to ancient usage all the inhabitants, being tax and rate payers, were entitled to be admitted and sworn as hhirons and freemen, and consequently to vote. The latter has declared that only the eldest sons of freemen, born after their fathers are made free, have such right. Upon what grounds the Committee formed their resolution it is difficult to imagine, for none of the entries read from the town records support the ex clusive right of eldest eons; and not a tittle of evi dence was given on either side in any way relating to the last custom which they found. The effect, however, of this final decision will be to perpetuate that odious monopoly which has for years past enabled a Clergyman of the Church ol" England to return the Members for Rye; and, if the other towns of the Cinque Ports, which have so long been deprived of their elective franchise, are to consider that their claims will meet with similar returns, the Government will iota: in vain for that slate of quiet and contentment which once dietin• guished the Kent and Sussex coast from most other parts of the kingdom.
