Consols for the next settlement opened this morning at 81i, but were exceedingly heavy, and a general gloom continued to liang over every description of money trans actions. There was something like a panic before the doge of the day, and Consols fell to 811, finding few buyers even at this decline. Still, nothing new was received from France ; and the best informed continue to believe that nothing has, or will occur, likely, in the slightesttlegree, to disturb the peace of Europe. In Foreign Securities scarcely any business is doing, but this can easily be accounted for, as there is a heavy account to be settled on the 30th current, and until it be arranged, a natural want of confidence must continue to exist, without any reference to the paternal actions of the Emperors, icings, Princes, and Ministers of State assembled at Verona.—South American Stock participates in the general dullness.

It is our painful duty to record the following detail of a dis tressing event which occurred off Dymchurch on Friday morn ing last :—About half-past three o'clock, the wind blowing a hurricane from the S.W. by W. as Sims, a fisherman, was going to his nets on that coast, he heard strange voices in the distance, IRA from the boisterous state of the weather could not ascertain from whence they proceeded, until day break, when he perceiVed a small sloop in distress lying on the flat sand off that place, at a very short -distance below low-water Mark, with three persons (two, men and a boy), apparently lashed to the vessel ; but from the tremendous sea that inces santly broke over them, he was totally unable to render them any assistance : they were then also seen by other persons from the Wall, who endeavoured to swim to them, but the waves were so heavy and followed each other in such rapid succession, that they were reluctantly compelled to relinquish their humane efforts. By this time the inhabitants of the village, with the offiters and men of the Coast Blockade service, had assembled on the beach, and Mr. John Sherrill', an • officer in the above service, immediately procured horses and dispatched them to the Martell° Tower, No. 23, to drag one of the blockade boats along the sand. In the interim, a small boat belonging to Sims having been procured, Mr. Sherrill, with two seamen of his party, launched her and made two attempts to reach the wreck, over whidh the sea was breaking with great fury, but at the moment when they had nearly gained their object, and the by standers succesively indulged the pleasing hope 'of the rescue of the distressed mariners, their boat was each time overwhelmed by , the surf, once by the thowls breaking, and the gallant adventurers narrowly escaped the sad fate which awaited those foi whom they had risked their own lives.--At this moment the blockade galley from the No. 23 Tower, a distance of three quarters of a mile, Was brought to the spot, and Mr. Sherriff, accompanied by Mr. Henry Jull, another officer of the same service, and four of their seamen, all of them being nearly naked, in order to be ready to swim, in case of need; launched her through a most- tre mendous surf, after being several times swamped. Hope was again cherished that Providence, would crown their gene rous efforts with success, bjet it was otherwise'decreed, for when they had approached well towards the objects of their anxious solicitude, a most awful surge struck the wreck—.it wns thrown over, and the devoted crew were summoned to eternity, al most at the moment when deliverance seemed to be within their reach. It is impossible to bestow too much praise on these intrepid and courageous young ,men, and their equally brave crew, for their manly and laudable exertion's ; nor are the in habitants of the village less deserving of commendation for the prompt assistance they gave on this distressing occasion. Every exertion was used by the blockade party to recover the bodies of the sufferers, but without effect. Tfie bodies of a man and a boy have; however, since been washed on shore near the Mortella Tower, No. 21, and placed in the blockade watch-house, until a jury can be summoned to hold an Inquest on them. From a small boat, which has been driven on shore opposite the Grand Redoubt at the East end of the Wall, as well as from an examination of the wreck on Saturday, a boat having been able to go out to it, it is ascertained that the vessel was the smack Providence, of Deptford, Paine, 'Master, and it is thought may be got on shore, it being the opinion that her hull has not sustained any material injury. Another account says :—" A most distressing event occurred at Dyrnchurch, on Friday morning last. At day-break, three persons were seen clinging to a vessel which appeared to have sunk about a quarter of a mile from the shore ; the wind was blowing a hurricane, and the sea was breaking furiously over them. The officers and men of the Coast Blockade, with others in the neighbourhood, soon ran to the not, and although the surf was running in a manner almost to bid defiance to every effort, yet, with undaunted resolution, 'Messrs. Sheriff and Jull, Admiralty Midshipmen, immediately launched a small punt, the only boat that could be obtained at the moment, and Mr. Sheriff, with two men, most gallantly at tempted to get to the vessel; which they could not accomplish, being repeatedly beaten back by the fury, of the waves ; this seemed rather to increase than subdue their determina tion. A galley was by this time broughtto the place in which Mr. Sheriff, Mr. Jull, and four seamen renewed their exertions, and after a long struggle nearly succeeded in reaching the wreck, but unfortunately too late to save the lives of those they risqued their own to preierve, 'for the swell having greatly increased from the flowing of the tide, the poor sufferers were washed off„ and melancholy to relate, were seen no more : at this instant no language can describe the feelings of those on the shore, from the apprehensions lest these brave and generous fellows should perish in their laudable attempt; providentially they lar.ded in safety, amidst the warmest applause of the spectators. Stich merito rious acts cannot fail to meet with the respect and admiration of the public, and it is hoped will not be unnoticed by those who can and know how to appreciate them. We must not omit to mention, that the inhabitants of Dymchurch were most active on this occasion, and shewcel, by their exertions, how much they felt for the unfortunate people.—( Kentish Gazette.) FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. PARTS, Nov. 17.—Letters from Bayonne, dated Nov. 10, contain what follows :-" The Bandes of the Faith, defeated at all points, are obliged to divide themselves into small bodies, and all their exploits are confined to attacking and pillaging travellers. The Army of the Faith - in Navarre is in the greatest disorder. The remnant which was able to collect in Roncal still in complete anarchy, not very praper to fa cilitate its operations; only agreeing, however, not to accept of General O'Donnel as Corn.. mander. This latter, as well as the other Chiefs of the Faith, and even Quesada himself, have frequent conferences ,with the French. Generals here. Yesterday a Colonel of Cavalry of the Army of the Faith arrived fromWrgel;' it is said that lie is the bearer of disagreeable news to the Junta at Bayonne ; when he left it was stmngly debated whether or not the place should be evacuated, now seriously menaced by the army of Mina." From the Journal de Toulouse we learn that 'Count Gispert, Minister of the Regency of Urgel, who had been some days at Toulouse, had re turned to Seu. It is said that Ite has procul•ed tt considerable sum of money. The Ministerial Journal of this evening an nounces that Balaguer has fallen into the hands of Mina. % In consequence of this event, the Ite gency of Urgel took refuge, it is said, .at Puy cerda. Yesterday this same Jimrnal pretended that no military event had occasioned this retro grade movement. In truth, he pretends that the Governor of Balaguer has not done his duty, and even that he has gone over to the enemy. This news proves _the force of the counter-revolu tionary 'Arty in Spain, and the weakness of the Constitutional party. Balaguer, according to the same Journal, is a paltry town of no import ance, which the counter-revolutionists did not care to keep. Thus Castelfollit, a formidable position when it was occupied by the' Army of the Faith, became only a miserable post when the Baron d'Eroles was forced to evacuate it.— (Constitutionnel.)

[Frcm tin Journal des Debats.l As we have promised to inform our readers of all the facts relative to Spain, and as an article in the Official Journal is a fact, we consider it our duty to publish the following article from the illoniteur, though it be not in all points con formable to the doctrines constantly professed by the Journal des .IMbats. [From the Constitutionnel.l For this fortnight past public opinion has ear nestly looked for an explanation born the Mi nistry on the great question which agitates all minds, 'and alarms all interests. The Moniteur has at last spoken this morning. Before we ex amine the assertions and the principles which enter into the composition of this article, we shall insert it literally, leaving to our readers the task of divining whether it is for peace or for war. As for ourselves, we humbly confess that we have not sufficient sagacity to resolve.,this problem. [From the Courier Fraugais.] The Moniteur, which has long confined itself to echoing the articles published in the Quoti dienne and the _Doge, begins at last to speak for itself on the question of war against Spain. Those who may have expected to find in this first maul. festo of the official journal, either novel reflec tions or- conclusive assertions, will be strangely disappointed. • The Moniteur has maintained all the formal intricacy of that diplomatic nullity of which it has long possessed the means of present ing the model. That journal is of opinion that " the whole question resolves into that right of peace and of war which is admitted to belong to every regular Government ; and since (it is con tinued) the right of France to maintain an army of observation on the frontiers of Spain, for the purpose of guarding against the injuries to which her dignity or her interests might be exposed by such a vicinage, has never been disputed, it can not but appear strange, that the right of putting an end to a state of things acknowledged to be sufficiently dangerous to warrant such expensive precautions, should be contested. This is the point of discussion on which the opposition journals have refrained to touch." The opposition journals have not avoided this point of discussion any more than the others. They have not disputed the existence of the right of peace or war in the Government, but they have inquired whether the Government ought to - be willing to engage in war which would give a mortal blow to trade and industry, and which consequently' would prove ruinous to France. If these considerations are to be 'got over, and if it be wished to make the mere right of going to war its justification, that doubtless may be done ; but then we must no longer con demn those wars without end, and without neces sity, in which the ambition of an individual re cently involved France. We should be com pelled to acknowledge,.that without possessing the chances of success which his military genius and the colossal force of his armies gave him, it' was proposed to sacrifice the interests of France to monarchical abstractions, as he sacrificed it to the thirst of conquest. In placing the present question on the right of peace or war, the Moniteur justifies' the faults and the misfortunes with which Napoleon is fairly reproached, for Napoleon also possessed the right of - making peace or war. It appears to•us. that the question does not depend on the right of peace or war, but on 'the manner in which that right is reconcilable with the interests, the tran quillity, and the prosperity of the nation. This is the state of the question as it ought to be viewed "by a Government which makes force subordinate to justice, and its own private.wishes to the general interests. In putting forth the contrary principle, the Moniteur seems still to feel the influence of the spirit by which it was guided — at the epoch when, in constantly an nouncing some new war to France, it sought at least to console her by the splendour' which sur rounded her externally. According to the Moniteur, the formation of an army ofobservation would carry with it a plausible motive for war against Spain ; but when the sanatory cordon was ordered, was it not over and over again protested that the intentions of the French Government were pacific ? How, then, can this corps, which was assembled in the spirit of peace, become the pretext for a declaration of war ? It is said that, aggressions directed against " dignity" or " interests" are apprehended! But there was no such fear until Spain was involved in a civil war—until those who lacer - ate that country had their directing committee in France, and came there daily to seek fresh fuel for the flame - which they had lighted up, &c. Now that we have the declaration of the Mo niteur, it is asked what ought we to conclude from it; and whether there be ground to believe that we shall have war with Spain ? Many per sons incline to the affirmative, improbable as may be such a determination : but when the mere ap prehension of war is so 'injurious to trade and public credit, if thene be no intention to go to war, why is that not frankly and distinctly stated in order to put an end to the anxiety which am biguous declarations only serve to prolong? [Prom the sante Paper.] Within these two or three days the Public Funds, thanks to the less hostile news from Spain, have experienced some rise ; but the artiehr In the' 11loniteur..`oir the -affairs of the Peninsula, and the result of, the elections, which are conformable to the views of the partisans for war, have produced a new depression. CORFU, OCT. 13.—One year has elapsed since our neighbours the Acarnanians have been en gaged in an unassisted war with the Turks, and with i :the population of Albania, for the deli verance of their country. Their generous efforts, which we have contemplated with. an admiration not unmixed with fear, has increased, notwith standing the forebodings of certain Europeans. Lately five hundred of these brave men, after great fatigue and exertions, reached Calamos with their families, in search of even a momentary re pose. Five days after their arrival, the English Governor of Ithaca, in the name of his Britannic Majesty, called upon them to surrender their arms, conformably with the regulations of the English Authorities, on entering one of the lonian Islands. " Rather let us perish," said a voice, " by the sword. of,Mahomet, than thus exist by permis sion of these unworthy Christians." The rest followed this impulse, and they removed to Candia. On their return, they found that their countrymen weep engaged in preparing to make head against an armament which the Albanians had equipped to destroy their coasts; and, after a resolution agreed to, during a Council of War assembled at Makalas; they sallied' forth from the Castles of Tekes and Playa, upon the coasts, sending their women 'to Agrapha and Etolia, while all men capable of bearing arms congre gated at St. Eliaot here they individually took a solemn oath, before three Bishops, to de fend their country, to the very last man, and their holy eause, against the enemies of the Christian name. It was thus, therefore, that towards the latter end of September one , Pacha was defeated, and retreated with pre cipitation to Arta. Another corps of considerable strength which the Pacha had assembled at Vonitza have marched upon Loutraki, for the purpose of placing the Greeks between two fires. The latter, after vanquishing the General-in ; Chief, directed their entire, force against the second corps, which they pursued to the environs of Vonitza, whence the Albanians set out after wards for Prevesa. - After these advantages, the Suliote General (Marcos Bozaris) put himself at the head of a' numerous body of Sullotes and Acarnanians, and took the direction of Calarites. It is supposed that his object is to possess him. self of the defiles of Mount Pindus, in order to cut off the Albanians from all communication with Thessaly and Chourschid Pasha.—Omer Pasha, it is added, has proposed an armistice of five months to the Greeks.—(Le Constitutionned.) FRANKFORT, N o v. 12.—(Extract of a Private Letter.)—" There has been nothing but trouble and alarm on the Exchange to-day. M. Roths child received last evening a courier, who, it is supposed, came from Paris. Instantly the most alarming reports were spread. Some said that the French army had passed the Pyrenees, others that the most striking diversity of opinion pre vailed at the Congress of Verma. What is cer tain is, that the courier brought an account of the French Funds having fallen to S 7. It may be easily imagined, that in such a state of things M. Rothschild, the chief source of all the reports in circulation, was assailed by all the speculators, but he preserved the greatest calmness, and shewed so much reserve that even his most intimate friends could' not learn a word from him. The news- we receive from Congress are not _so tranquillizing as is wished by all the persons fatigued with political agitations. It appears as if a very close union did not prevail among the Cabinets. Among the Ministers some entertain extreme opinions, and some' are more moderate. The death of the Marquess of Londonderry, which' causes very lively regrets to some diplomatists, has -dis concerted many hopes and projects.—The invi tation received by the King of Bavaria to send a Plenipotentiary to the Congress, has excited con siderable attention. The report is already spread that it was intended to modify the Constitu tion adopted in that country ; but it seems more probable that the object is to treat of the indem nities which Bavaria claims in consequence of having ceded to Austria territory for which the Palatinate of the Rhine was promised in ex change. Bavaria receives a sum annually from. Austria, as an equivalent for the number of souls which it requires to complete its indemni ties; but Austria desires to get rid of a troublesome obligation which weighs on its finances, and it- is at Verona, it is said, where this affair is to be determined. M. de Berstett, Minister of Baden, has received from Prince Metternich assurances, it is also said, that the indemnity shall not be at the expellee of Baden. A deputation of the Greek temporary Government is to repair to the Congress. It has not disembarked, at Trieste, as was said, but is at present - at ncona, per forming quarantine. It is a matter of curiosity to conjecture whether or not it will receive,pass ports to go to Verona."—(Le Constitutionnel.) TRIESTE, Nov. 2.—According to the latest ac counts from Corfu, of October 26, the Paella of Arta has been completely beaten by Prince Maurocordato.—Letters from Ancona of the same date state, tmat a Deputation of the Central Government of Morea, at the head of which was the Count de Metaxa, bad arrived in that town. They intend to go to the Congress ,of Verona, to implore the protection of the Christian Mo narchs for the Greeks. It is not known whether they will receive the requisite permission to enter Verona, access. to which is very difficult at pre, sent. As their quarantine has been reduced from 40 to 18 days, some people augur favourably from this circumstance ; but it is generally thought here the Greeks will not be allowed to plead their cause, or to be represented at the Congress.—(Courier Francais.) • FROM THE SPANISH FRONTIERS. - we have .received, the following Letter fiOth Bourg-Madamc, (Eastern Pyrenees,), dated No vember 9 : "laver has fallen into the power of Mina. The Army of the Faith passed out at one gate at the moment the conque ror entered by the other. It is reported that the Governor of this town has not done his duty ; some persons even go so far as.to say that he has joined the enemy. The loss of Balaguer ought not to be considered an important event. It was antici pated. The town is without fortifications, and surrounded only by a single wall. It is remarkable only for its situation, which is on the declivity of a mountain. It is in consequence of this.event that the Regency has been removed to Puycerda.—(Journal du Soir. ) SEo D'URGEL, Nov. still keeps his eye upon us. His frequent changes Of position betray his hostile projects. Having left a garrison at Calaf, he marched on Gramont,where he has taken up a - position.

Yesterday a numerous Meeting of the Livery took place at Guildhall, in consequence of a precept issued by the Lord Mayor, for the Election of a Bridge-Master, in the room of Mr. Thodey, deceased. . The Hall being opened by the Town-crier. the Lord Mayor and Aldermen proceeded to the Court of Aldermen, and the Sheriffsyroceeded to the Election. Mr. I.AVELL proposed Mr. Norton, as a fit and proper per son to perform the duties of the situation. He knew him to be a respectable and honourable man- upwards of forty years, and there were, independently of the former prosperous, and the present adverse condition of his life, claim's, which would, no doubt, have weight with the Livery. He had been twice disappointed in his applications, one of which had nearly suc ceeded' when he yielded to the call for Mr. Thodey. Mr.BttOOKS seconded the - nomination, in doing which he stated, that he had known Mr. Norton upwards of thirty years, and had the highest respect for his character. Mr. CROWTHER stated, that he stood forward to put in no mination a person well known, and greatly esteemed by his Fellow Citizens, Mr. Lewis Lewis. That Honourable Indi vidual had once been in circumstances which seemed calcu lated to challenge the freaks of fortune, but the circumstances of the times, which had produced such general distress, visited him heavily. Mr. OLDHAM seconded the nomination of Mr. Lewis, who had as Strong claims as any man could have to the situation.— He had, in his early life,Nheen, in the most flattering circum stances, having been the proprietor of the New London Tavern, and, to his fostering hand, many who were now enjoying the sweets of prosperity owed the means of present enjoyment.— His hand and heart were always open to the distressed, and 15 years of hid life he had devoted to the service of that Corpora tion, to which_ he now looked for assistance in the day of calamity. The next two Candidates were Mr. Aubrey and Mr. Shotter, two very respectable men, whose characters were highly spoken of by the Gentlemen who put them in nomination. Mr. Mesnard, another Candidate, withdrew his name. The homes having been put up, there appeared a great majo rity for Mr. Lewis. Mr. Norton also had a great shew. The Sheriffs immediately declared, that the Election had fallen upon Mr. Lewis. A poll was then, demanded upon the part of the other Candidates, and commenced at half-past two' o'clock. • • Sunday evening, an old man, who has been many 'years sweeping the crossing facing the Mother Red Cap, at Camden Town, was run over by a post-chaise, which was driving furiously to town, the pole of which struck him in the head, and fractured his skull so dreadfully, that he expired shortly' after.
