The great point of interest now centres in the Address of the Chamber of • Deputies, which is to be discussed to-day, and which we shall probably have by Wednesday morning. The following is from our Paris Cor respondent, and the various Papers : Pante,_ MARC,( 13.—1 f we trust to announcements apparently official from the regular organs of the Ministry, they tire resolved to brave the impending storm, anti nei ther to retire from office, dissolve the Chambers, nor even prorogue the Session of the Legislature. It is quite cer tain that the tone of dignified neutrality assumed in the address of the Upper Chamber, was a blow entirely unex - peeled by the Ministry and their friends ; but the Gazette now gravely asset ts that it would indeed be hostile to the , Cabinet had the Ministers entertained the idea of resorting to (pups d'etat, or to the exercise of a power beyond the laW..and the Charter ; but that never having dreamt of such follies, the Address of the Peers is evidently favourable to their stability. To favour this view of the matter a curb has been suddenly put on the exu berant - royalism of the _Drapeau Blanc, by the removal of the Editors, and the appointment of others who now advecate the more moderate policy recommended by the Universel and the Quotidienne. This measure is ascribed to the praise bestowed by the Ultra Paper on a memorial .prepared by the most violent of that party, and addressed to the King, in which his Majesty is entreated to assume the exercise of powers inconsistent with the constitutional liberties of the people, but which, although dedicated to Prince Polignac, is now prudently disclaimed by him whom it watt intended to serve. "Nothing has yet transpired as to the terms of the address to be presented by the Chamber of Deputies in answer to the Speech from the Throne. The committee appointed to prepare it is known to be engaged in delibera tion at the moment that I now write ; but from the small . ness of the number of which it is composed, no account which can be at all relied on is likely to be communicated before their report is made to the Chamber on Monday next. It is pretended by the Gazette that three drafts of a report have already been submitted to the Committee; one b y A i. Etienne, the editor of the Constitutionnel, a nother by M. Keratry, the e , liter of the .Courier, and the thi r d b y M. Sebsstiani, which is said to he the pro duction of M. Bert, the editor of the Journal des Debate, anti it is added, with a sneer, that if we - wish to know in what spirit the forthcoming document will It expretsed, we have only to refer to the three papers in question for the last six months after deciding which of the three drafts is likely to he preferred. It is known that a promise of inviolable secres:: has been given to each other by the Members of the Committee; but it is now, I believe, no secret that M. Gauthier has been ap pointed Reporter, and m that office involves - the duty of preparing the draft of the Report, the sneer of the Gazette is so far short of its mark. If the smiles of Royalty, how ever, were likely to have any influence on the individuals composing the Committee, it appears that even that last hupe is not to be abandoned, as the whole of them, . Liberal and Ultra-Liberal, as they are, have been invited to the King's card party for Sunday evening.

The Aurora frigate was expcctert there, as well es several other ves , els which were to sail from that port for the roast of Guinea in order to check the shve trade, which is still carried on in spite of the rigorous laws by which it is prohibited.

(From the Journal des Debuts of Saturday. ) PA RD, MARCH 12.—Acrording to all appearance, the Chamber of Deputies will not proceed before next Monday to discuss, in Secret Committee, the project of Address proposed by its Committee, the Members of which assemble every day. They will not make any Report, properly speak jug, but at the next Sitting of the Chamber M. Royer Collard, as President of the Committee, will read the pro ject which it has agreed upon. It will not be till after the discussion with closed floors, which will occupy perhaps two or three days, and when the Address shall have been presented to his Majesty by a great Deputation, that the Chamber will be able to receive the communication from the Government.. The first Re port of the Committee of Petitions will be made on Satur day, the 20th, at the soonest, because, according to the regulations, the Committee must distribute, three days before-hand, a piper, containing the summaries of the pe titions which it has examined. (From the Moniteur of Siturday.) Peals, MARCH 12.-The Deputation of Bordeaux had the honour in-day to present to his Majesty its con gratulations on the anniversary of the 12th of March. Among the members of the Deputation were Messrs. Count Lynch, Honorary Mayor of Bordeaux, Laine, Ike, Count Lyncliaddressed the King in the following terms : " Sire,—When your Majesty skewed to the happy in habitants of the Seine one Frenchman more, another Frenchman, well worthy of that name, saw the standard of fidelity wave on the towers of Bordeaux. It may sometimes, Sire, he agitated by the storm, but its basis is immovable as the Sentiment of which it is the emblem." The King answered—" The conduct of the Bordelais in 1814, Gentlemen, will remain eternally engraved on my heart. Their example gave the impulse to the whole nation, which will always feel the happiness that the great events of that period have procured for it. Congratulate yourselves, therefore, Gentlemen, on being Berdelais, such great recollections are connected with your city and its memorable devotedness. For my part I shall never forget them, but t.ke pleasure in calling them to mind every day, both as a King and a father." His Majesty afterwards conversed with much kindness with Count Peyronnet, Viscount Laine. and other Mem bers of the Deputation, which afterwards paid its respects to the other Members of the Royal Family. The Drapeau Blanc contains the following note:— " The Memorial to the King, which is rela-ed with praise in our yesterday's paper, could not have been thus men tioned but by an editor who is no longer attached to the Drapeau Blanc. " Ve have no reason to repeat that we shall always de fer(' the monarchy ; but the monarchy under the constitu tional forms estaUshed by the Royal Charter of 1814, and which his Majesty Charles X. has sworn to maintain. " The Director of the Journal, LAMBERT." The Gazette de France says--" The Memorial to the King, of which the Journals speak, is dedicated to Prince Polignac. We are able t, assure our readers that the Pre sident of the Council did not authorise this dedication, of which he was not informed otherwise than by the Journals." The illoniteur of Saturday contains, in the nonofficial part, a long despatch from Captain Gourbeyre, command ing die.expedition against Afadaga.scar, detailing the opera tions subsequently to the 16th of October. The result of attacks made on various parts of the coast, in which the , Ovas showed great courage, but were every where defeated, was the following "On the 20th November two Envoys from the Go vernment of Emirine sent to Captain Gourbeyre for a safe conduct to wait upon him, for the purpose of delivering to him two letters from Queen Ranavola-Manjaka, and to treat of peace. The following day the division returned, to receive them, to the anchorage of Pointe-a-Larr6e. " A Convention, in which the rights of France arc formally recognised, was agreed upon between the Com mander of the expedition and the Envoys of the Ovas. The latter then set out to Emirne, to lay it before the Queen for her approbation. In expectation of the ratifi cation, which was to take place before the 31st December, hostilities ceased at ail points, and the French vessels are admitted as formerly into the several ports occupied by the Ovas."

Yesterday and to-day the principal Officers of State pre sented the compliments usual on such occasions. The negotiations with Count Orloff, which were inter rupted during the illness of the Reis Effendi, have been resumed since his recovery and the arrival of a courier from St. Petereburgh. Count Orloff had a conference to day with several Ministers of the Porte, the object of which was, the regulation of several points of the Treaty of Adrianople, and the separate Convention respecting the payments to be made by the Porte, and the evacuation of the Ottoman territory, in consequence, by the Russian troops.

Brussels Papers, of the 14th instant, contain some account of the proceedings of the States- General, who were occupied for three days in discussing the petitions, the number of which amounted to 964—a pretty convincing proof that the public feeling in that quarter, is much agitated. The proposed measures against the Liberty of the Press are particularly odious. The importers of bullion have been unusually active within the last month, Mr. RoTuscHILD and other capitalists having introduced coin in bars into the country of a value said to exceed a million sterling, and the import, we hear, is likely to continue. The effect produced on the currency, from time to time, by the transac tions of the monied interest, is well worthy of observation ; but as the revenue takes no cogni zance of importations of bullion, there is much mystery about these proceedings, and both the Government and the public are quite in the dark respecting them. The unanimous opinion in the city that the bullion trade, both inwards and outwards, should be perfectly free, is one in which we perfectly concur ; but there is an inconsistency in the practice of entering at the Custom-house bullion exported, and passing it without entry or examination when imported, which the Government may find it necessary to correct by taking an account of imports of this kind as well as of all others. There. is so much misrepresentation and delusion prevailing on the subject of currency that it is highly inconvenient the Government shonld not he I)o3!4essed ,Cf fly Bets which are neccss'Ary for theTight - undcrst affi t ing oldie question.

The New York Paprs of the 18th February state th a t the Mexican Minister, on being present:d to the President of the United States,_ made the following remark : " Buth nations are and nil be for ever linked i❑ friend ship by sympathies that have been founded by nature i•- self. Mexico will always remember, with a lively feeling of gratitude, that the United States of America was the first among civilized nations to acknowledge their rights." The Port-au-Prince Papers contain the account of tile arrival there of the Spanish frigate Casilda from the Havannah, having on board Fernandez Castro, Envoy Extraordinary from the King of Spain to the Republic of Hayti. The Demerara Papers are void of interest. Accounts from Constantinople, via Paris, state that Count Orh ff has notified to the Reis Effendi, that if the Porte was ready to pay the 400,000 ducats by the Ist of April, owing to the Russian . enminerce, the imperi-al army would immediately retire behind the Balkan ; the Ottoman Minister answered that the money was ready. It is re ported that the plague has again broken out at Adrianople. The accounts from Marseilles, of the 7th inst., say that the preparations for the expedition to Algiers is carryingain there and at Toulon with the greatest activity. A'ivices from Toulon state, that the troops had begun their march for that port; 22,000 men were to be embarked in the ships of war, and the land army is to consist of 32,000 men. Information from St. Peterskurgh announce that his Imperial Majesty would soon depart for Warsaw, and open the Diet in person, from whence he was to proceed to the Rhine, to take the waters near Cologne. According to accounts from Lisbon, the Count Santa rem hal notified to Mr. Mackenzie that his master, Don Miguel, will adhere to the wishes of the Duke of Welling ton, on condition that he is acknowledged in two :nontlis; for, should it be longer retarded, great fear is entertained of a new revolution in Portugal. Ltvaitroor., MARCH 12.—The import this week of cot ton is 15,800 bags, and the sales are 20,690 bags, includ ing 2,000 American, 500 Surats, and 500 Brazil, taken on speculation at. the highest prices of last week. In sugar 850 Mids. have been sold this week at former rates. THE FUNDS. A very lively sensation has been felt this morning in the Funds, owing to the report that some millions of the taxes would be taken off the announcement of the Budget this evening, by the Chancellor of the Exchequer. Con sols, which left off on Saturday at 9.2 i to opened at 92 /, and soon went up to 92i fur the Account. Since which a trifling reaction has taken place, and they have fallen to 92t /, and for Money 94. It is said that a West-end of the town broker has made some large pur chases, which was the cause of the for►ner rise. In the Foreign Market the chief business is in Greek Bonds, which are rather better; it is also settling day in the above market.

TWO O'CLOCK. The only topic of conversation this morning in the City is the Budget, and for the particulars of which great anxiety is expressed by the public. The prevailing report is, that a property-tax on real property of 21 per cent, is going to be laid, which will produce three millions, and the reduc tion of the 4 per Cents. one million, for which five millions of taxes are to be taken off. This report had a material effect in the early part of the morning on the Funds, which improved per cent., and at present Consols may be quoted 92i j for the account, and 922 for money, with a firm market. In the Foreign Market they are occupied in settling their accounts, Brazil, Greek, Portuguese, and Spanish Stocks are the heaviest to settle; up to this hour all appears to go off well.

Mr. BLacicsrolir, the surgeon, was sent for, in the Lope to restore anima tion, but without effect, as life was quite extinct. The cause assigned for the rash act is the death of his only girl, a child about seven years of age, A% hick eccuried a f e w months ago, and which has constantly preyed upon his spirits.

At Gib altar, how ever, it was stated a letter had been received faun Minorca, announcing that she had sunk in deep tvater after tia was hove Off the rocks ; the crews and stores were saved. The Russian squadron was at Poros ; the French at Milo. The Erebus bomb with a mail, and the Orestes transpott with provisions, left Malta fot the Archipelago on the 17th January. The Camelion left Gilvaltar on the 23d ult. The fleet and all our garrisons were in excellent health Commander G Daniell, late Lieutenant of the Mosquito, came passenger in the Camelion. She was towed into harbour to-day to he paid off. Since the sailing of the Camelion from Malta, we find, by the French Papers, the Russian fleet of eight sail of the line, eight frigates, and several brigs, with three Admirals' flags, had arrived at Malta, on their way to the Biltic, about the Ilth ult. ; the Spartiate and Ocean were ex pected to leave for England on the 23d, and would 130.111 be followed by all the bomb vessels. General Chalet is to command the French expedition against Algiers, which, it i s sa id i n the Mediterranean, will cost at the least three milions sterling. It will leave Toulon ut the end of April, and the affair, it is presumed, will be over in July. Common report states the French will establish a perma nent colony there, to which England has consented, in re turn, as it is said, for the consent of France to the appoint ment of Prince Leopold to the Sovereignty of Greece. We regret to record the death of Commander Thomas Bo'eler, of his Majesty's slip Hecla—another victim to those horrid regions, the Coast of Altica. This melan choly event took place two days after the Hecla sailed • from Fernando Po. On the arrival of the Ilecla at St. Helena, Commander Greville, of the Espoir, placed Lieut. F. Harding in command of the Hecla, and transferred to her Lieut. Kendall, from the Chanticleer. The crew of the Heela bad nearly recovered. She returned to her station on the 29th of January.

On Thursday last a very numerous and highly respectable meeting of the gentry, clergy, merchants, shop keepers, and other inhabitants of the town and neighbour hood of Huddersfield, convened by the constable in pur suance of a requisition, was held in the Court.bouse, " to consider the propriety of petitioning Parliament to inves tigate the cause of the general distress, and if possible to adopt such measures as may give permanent relief;" Mr. Josxrx BEAUMONT, Constable, in the Chair. The first resolution, moved by Mr SUTCLIFFE, and seconded by Mr. Henn WATT, Was to the effect that the distress in every part of the country demands the immediate con sideration of the Legislature, and loudly calls for relief. Other resolutions attributed the distress chiefly to expen sive wars which had entailed debt and taxation, aggravated by the change of the currency, which ought to hare been accompanied by a reduction of the rate paid on the inte rest of the national debt. A reduction of expenditure in the civil and military allowances and pensions, propor tionate to the change of the currency was also recommended. In one resolution the meeting disclaimed any intention by their application to Parliament to embarrass or unsettle the present administration. After several speeches front Dr. WALKER, Mr. W. STOCKS, Mr. KNIGHT, Mr. J. BArrm.zY, and others, the resolutions were adopted. The petitions founded on the resolutions are to be prevented to the House of Peers by Lord WHARNCLIFTI, and to the Commons by Lord MILTON. WINDSOR POLICE.—For some time Past the neighbourhood of Windirwr has been kept is constant alarm by the commission of burglaries, supposed to have been ac complished by London housebreakers. Three men, named T. HARBEan, J. SWAINE, and H. BAAS, alias Rivras, underwent a long examination on Thursday, on a charge of being concerned in the robbery of Mr. BEARD, at Datchet, and also with having robbed Miss SHARMAN's house, on the night of Friday last, or Saturday morning ; when, after hearing several witnesses, the magistrates com mitted the prisoners to Aylesbury gaol for trial. "SIGNS OF THE TIDIES."-On Monday last a party of itinerant showmen (from Lynn Mart, we should suppose) arrived at Holbeach, about one o'clock, and commenced their performances in the street, pro bong pub lic°. One of them threw a ball an immense height, and caught it in a sort of cup on his bead, another tumbled, and very clever they appeared in their line. At length, the master of the ceremonies announced to the assembled multitude, that what Itsd been seen was merely a shadow of what they could do provided they were properly encou raged : after which, two of the party tin,: did their hats round, and, from a concourse of at least 200 persons, they collected the sum of one penny / I—Drakords Stamford News. _ _ _ REVOLTING CASE.—An interesting girl, named MARY LomAx, appeared at the Bolton Petty Ses sions, on Monday, to affiliate two illegitimate children upon RICHARD WILSON, Of Ainsworth.

We met&oned the other - dny, in terms of no in considerable praise, a work published by Effingham Wilson, entitled " Common Sense" to the Duke of Wellington, in which the matter of tithes was handled in no very friendly terms towards the Church ; and we have now before us another, the great argument of which is to prove that the present distribution of Church property is unfa vourable both to the real interests of the Church and of the community, and that her only safety is in her consent to a plan of more equitable adjustment. The author of the work is Mr. Geo. COventry (also the author of an inquiry relative to . .Innins), and the following extracts will afford no unfavour able specimen of the spirit of his essay, and, we might alto add, of the spit it of the times " The purport of the foregoing queri.s is to excite a spirit of inquiry, that some remedies may he adopted foe general benefit, not only of the present generation but of posterity, who will judge somewhat unfavourably of their ancestors, should they bequeath them a system of religion fraught with so many innovations, and subjected to so much injustice. The sante queries equally apply to England, which, as a nation, gained no more by the Re formation than the sister country. " Centuries, as we have before observed, have rolled on, without lessening the evil ; on the contrary, it is rather increased : while the Church has, like the hardy oak of the forest, defied the passing gale and the winter's blast, spreading her branches far and wide for the shelter of the sinecurist and the sycophant, whilst the praiseworthy and the p rtoruteected heath.

The Corporation of Liverpool has passed a spirited vote for 1,000/., to be at the disposal of its sub committee, towards promoting the measures now in course of adoption by the friends to free trade with China and our Indian territories. Mr. ARNOLD, it is said, has nearly arranged with the shareholders connected with the late Engli•da Opera House, and to the mutual satisfsetion of all the parties. No other impediment will remain to the coin mencement of building a new theatre, when the Commi, sioners of Woods and Forests, in coujunstion with the Marquis of Exrras, the Duke of Bauman, and other pro-. prictors of the ground through which it is intended to carry the new street from Waterloo-bridge to the Great North-- road, shall have agreed upon a bargain and sale. The Lessee of Drury-lane Theatre and the Sub-Committee have amicably terminated their connection, cancelling the lease for the remainder of the term. We understand this mutual arrangement took place en Thurs-• day, previously to which Mr. Puts had paid the rent of the Theatre up to the preceding evening.
