The awn ing is in a good state, and I have no doubt will yet last seve ral voyages. During the whole time at the liavannali it was furled thrice for a few hours only. Part of the time, near four months, a lower studsail of Co ker canvas, new on leaving England, was used as a main deck awning, when it was found one mass of mildew, and so rotten as to be totally unfit for service. I forward a piece of each, with my seal annexed, for your inspection, and beg you will make what use you think proper of it. I lik ew i se forward a piece of one of .your prepared bolts, which by some accident gut wet through seven or eight . folds, and was not discovered. till -quite dry, when I made a lower studsail of it, which has been used the passage home, and is perfectly good. Any other canvas, I think, would have been, under similar circumstances, totally useless. Wishing you every success which your discovery merits, I au), Gentlemen, your obedient servant, (Signed) EDDIS. To Mesirs. Browell & Co., 23, Alderman4ury. PLANTATION APPEALS. At a MEETING of His Majesty's Most Honourable Privy Council, Council Office, Whitehall, Thursday, April 18, Between Messrs. EDGAR, LYON, and FLENr- IN a, of the Island of Trinidad,. Merchants • MeSSTS.WALROND, EDMoNSToNE, anderi. of the same place, Merchants; ALEXANDER DUNCANSON, and Messrs. GLARES and Appellants. Co. of the same place, Merchants. And HENRY FULLER, Esq. His Majesty's Respondent. Attorney-General for the said Island. Ma. HAnarsox,--My Lords, this is an appeal from the Island of Trinidad, by Messrs. Edgar and others, against Mr. Fuller, the Attorney-General of that Island. The appellants are merchants in the Island of Trinidad, and as such, in the year 1314, imported in British vessels certain articles of British produce and manufacture, consisting, I understand, of linens. Upon the articles arriving, a demand was made of a duty of three and a half per cent. ad valorem ; • thwpaThints refused: to make thispa; ment, but finding tlatthe goods could not be landed with.; out, promissory mhos were at length given for the amount. A sort of judgment was entered for the amount of those notes, sub ject to a revision afterwards; and the parties having appealed against the payment of this duty, an investigation took place in the Island as to whether there was any ground for their being levied or not. I have most carefully read the case, and it will depend on two points whether any such duty existed. First, whether it was imposed by theKingof Spain ? and if it was not,whether any such duty has been imposed on the Island since it was ceded to the crown of this country? I admit that if by any of the Cedulas in the Island of Trinidad it should be found that any such duty had been imposed, and the duties were continued by his Majesty, that would have justified the taking of the duty. I have carefully examined the Cedulas, and I find no such duties; there are duties on the landing of certain articles, and there is a duty on articles of internal produce and consumption. It is not pretended that these are of that description ; there are duties on the exportation of articles exported for the payment on slaves, and duties on exportation for the payment of articles furnished in the nature of provisions ; and there is one duty of a limited description, imposed a considerable number of years back upon the merchants, for the purpose of building a wooden wharf at their expence ; but it is not insinuated that the duty was in this instance levied upon that ground, but it appears to have been taken on the supposition that there existed under a Cedula a duty of three per cent., and that two quarters per cent. added since made it three and a half; or that by some law, made subsequent to the conquest of the Island, some such duties had been imposed. On the capitulation of the Island, it was stipulated that the old laws should remain, and afterwards it was agreed that all the civil officers should remain, and continue their functions ; and I have no doubt under that under that treaty the old duties have been continued and ought to be collected It is singular that these goods, having been imported in 1814, there was, in 1815, an Order of Council repealing and annulling the duty of three and a half per cent., so far as it might affect British linens, the very ar ticle imported in this case. Your Lordships will see that the feeling of the Government of the Island was, that it was impolitic that these duties should continue to be collected. The repeal, of course, must have been founded upon the supposition entirely that such duties did exist in the Island ; and if that had not been the supposition, these parties would not have been called upon to give the promissory notes. There was a Proclamation in 1813, imposhig duties on slaves, both imported into the Island and in the Island, and also on inhabited houses, and on spirits ; but there is no pretence, as it appears to me, for this duty. I have nothing further to state to-your Lordships, but that on a most careful examination, which my Learned Friend, Mr. De hany, who is with me, has gone through as well as myself, there is no ground whatever for the imposition of these duties. I can find no authority for any such duty, or any thing which bears the slightest resemblance to it. MASTER OF THE ROLLS.—In point of fact, the duty has been collected. Mr. HARRISOIsT.—VCS, my Lord.. MASTER or THE ROLLS.—For how long was it collected; in other instances, I mean. Mr. HARRISON.—I believe in no other instances; that it might not operate as a discouragement to 'British goods, in 181.5 a proclamation issued annulling the duty of three and a half per cent. which was supposed to exist, as far as it referred to British linens, the subject of the promissory-notes that were in dispute. Thane is no evidence that duties of a similar de. scription were collected in any similar instance, and this im portation having been in 1814, very shortly after the intelli gence cane to this country that these duties had been called for, the duties were annulled, certainly on the supposition that they existed ; but the annulling, with regard to certain articles, duties which have never been legally imposed, cannot, by im plication, sanction either the previous collection of such duties on those articles, or the collection of' it upon other articles. 'Lord STOWELL.—Has any notice been given to the Attor ney-General ? ' Mr- Hinitiso.w.—l understand so, my Lord ; to the Soli citor of the Treasury, and the Solicitor of the Customs. MASTER OF THE 'ROLLS.-If is a very important general question ; one does not know' how many cases there may be depending upon this. Mr. IlAnnisoN.-1 do not-apprehend that any other case does depend upon it; for the proclamation of 1315, which re pealed the duty as far as regarded British linens, has prevented any further cases. Lord STOWELL.—The very agitating the case may bring forward other appeals. MAsTEivor THE ROLLS.—It may apply tcf other commo dities, though not to British linens. Lord STOWELL—I think the, Attorney-General should be heard upon it. .Mr. HARRISON.—Notice has been given both to the So licitor for the Customs and the Solicitor for the Trea sury ; that is the usual course observed; where duties of Customs are concerned, the course is to give notice to the Soli citor of the Treasury and the Solicitbr of the Customs. Mr. Manic, I understand, says he recollects no notice ; , but your Lordship sees this is a case which has been going on ever since 1815, therefore I rather believe the notice was given to Mr. Maule's predecessor, Mr. Litchfield. . • Mr. R. S. ATCHESON.—Yes, it was so. Mr. HARRisoN.—Then, if your Lordships require it, we will' direct that a specific notice shall be given ; probably Mr. Maule will bring it under the specific notice'of the Attorney-General. MASTER OF THE R OLLS .— It will be much .more satisfac tory to the Court that the Crown should be heard upon it. . Mr. HARRISON.—I will direct that Mr. Atcheson shall send to Mr. Maule the printed papers and the proclamations, that he may take the Attorney-General's opinion, whether he thinks there is any ground for appearing. MASTER OF THE ROLLS.—Then it must stand over till the next day.

PAars, APRIL 16.—We are assured that M. de Serre, who has left Paris as Ambassador from France to Naples, is cliargcd to recommend to the King to listen to the wishes of his people, and give them a charter. This fact, which how ever we cannot guarantee, would be a very manifest proof of the progress of knowledge, and the triumph of constitutional ideas, in Europe. We are informed, in a manner which removes all doubt on the subject, that the Duke of Dal berg was recalled from Turin, and replaced by M. de la Tour du Pin, because he advised the King of Sardinia to govern according to the noble and wise principles which his own Sovereign had proclaimed in 1814, and not to maintain with a blind obstinacy the decree by which his Sardinian Majesty on his restoration announced that he would pay no 'regard to any thing that had been done for the preceding 20 years. M. de Dalberg, at the period of the revolution of Naples, also forsaw the danger which menaced the equilibrium of the political Powers of Europe if the Austrians advanced into that country with their armies. It doubtless was not expected that two years after it would be necessary to make concessions, with out which the maintenance of the European Mo narchies must become daily more problematical. It is now announced that the departure of General Donnadieu for the frontiers of Spain will not take place, and that he will receive another destination. It appears that this cha - nge is the consequence of explications between the Govern ments of France and Spain. APRIL 17.—The Courier Francais of this day contains the Note of M. Zea, presented to the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and to the' foreign Ambassadors, requiring the recognition of the re public of Columbia. This document is extremely long. The following is an extract : "the intentions of this Government are as follow : " 1. That the .Government of Columbia recognizes all exist. ing governments, whatever may be their origin and their form. 2. That it will not communicate with Governments which do not on their side recognize the Government of Columbia. " 3. That all commerce, access, and abode in the ports and territory of Columbia are open and ensured, with full liberty, safety, tolerance, and reciprocity, to all nations whose Govern ments shall recognize that of Columbia. " 4. That • those same ports and territory are, and shall re main, closed against the subjects of those states which shall not recognize that of Columbia. " 5. That delays shall be established for admission to the ports and territory of Columbia; proportioned to the delay which the proposed recognition shall experience. " 6. That measures will be taken by the Government of Co luMbia to prohibit all merchandise coming -from countries the Governments of which refuse or delay to recognize it, &c. " Paris, April 8, 1822." The Spanish Americans have assumed an im posing attitude._; and what .particularly merits attention is, that they have formed, at least in Mexico, governments' infinitely less anarchical, infinitely less ponderous, than that of the Cortes of Cadiz. On the other hand, in the important propositions which were made in the Extraordi nary Cortes, and which are to be discussed in the present Cortes, M. Golfin, agreeing with the American Deputies, has put foremost the idea of an Hispano-American Confederation, an idea which has nothing bizarre in the eyes of whoever knows the national pride of the Spaniards of both worlds, their desire of being a great power, even the greatest of all (according to their ora tors)-; and lastly, their respectable attachment to their ancient manner's, their habits, and parti cularly to their religion. It is impossible there should not soon be a negociation between the mother Spain and her Transatlantic children. It is of great urgency to draw from this state of af fairs all the national advantages of which it is capable. These advantages may become im mense to Frances our manufactures, our man ners, our literature, are popular in Mexico and Peru. The English and the Anglo-Americans, notwithstanding their recent relations, are not liked, unless it is at Buenos Ayres. France can and may have the chief share in the commerce of these new nations. But—help thyself—Hea ven will assist thee. AFFAIRS OF THE EAST. Accounts from Odessa of 25th of March say, that they had news from Constantinople of the 21st of this month, and that up to that time every day had been signalized by fresh excesses against' the Christians. The city continued. to be in a state of extraordinary fermentation. Up to the 6th of March, on which day M. de Lutzow dis patched his courier to his Court, he had madese veral fruitleis* attempts to induce the Reis Ets fendi to retract the famous note communicated on the 4th of March to the Ministers of the me diating Poweri. The ill success of these at tempts has astonished nobody. There is not an instance in the -history of the Ottoman Empire of the Sublime Porte having retracted a resolution taken by a great Divan, unless constrained by force of arms. • That assembled for the re jection of the Russian Ultimatum proceeded, besides, in the most solemn manner. All the proposals of Russia were successively rejected, and that unanimously, by all the members present, who did not only consist' of Ministers and great men of the empire, but, as we have said before, had joined with them on this occasion, the Chiefs of the Janissaries and the principal Ulemas The Sultan', in a cabinet adjoining the Hall of the Divan, where he was concealed behind'a silk curtain, was present at the deliberations, -afid 'highly approved of the result. Now, con sidering the well-known firmness of the Sultan's character, it is difficult to hope any modification of the notes that have been delivered, and there fore the friends of peace no longer reckon on its preservation. They fear, on the contrary, that at the next interchange of notes, that 'of the ,Porte will be conceived in terms still more haughty and menacing than the last. Actording to an qrder of the day ; published in the Russian army on the 13th of March, not only the light cavalry, but also the cuirassiersondall the cavalry in general, are to be armed with Dances. The next accounts from St-. Petersburgh were ex pected with the greatest impatience at Odessa ; it is not thought, however, that hostilities can begin before the middle of April. NAPl.3,lll.titcit 29.—The Minister of the In terior has addressed to the Cardinal Arch bishop of Naples the following Decree, dated March 15 :- " The King, informed that a great number of public.and. private Masters haVe nOt 'taken care .to wat i that their scholars frequented:the congregations' , di 'afiiiito, established in the dif ferent communes of the kingdom;fOr 'the. _greater benefit.ofthe studious youth; informed also that a. great number of fathers of families, instead of obliging their children to proceed on ho lidays to the said congregations; are rather 'disposed tolceep them away from these religiouS ceremonies, orders as follow: ," 1.. All public and private masters ought to second the Btu shops,' in what concerns frequenting the congregation di spirito. Therefore the public masters must produce -every 'week 'ati at testation certified by the Bishops, that they have taken'care, that their 'scholars were present at the Said congregations. defaultlthey are not to receive their salaries. With regard to private masters negligent in this particular, the. Bishops' May shut up their schools. " 2. Fathers neglecting to send their own . children to thesaid congregations, his Majesty declares to be unworthy of obtain ing any public employment. This to be applicabie:to Tutors and Guardians. . . . 'Children or young persons mit proved to have been pre sent at the said congregations, cannot aspire to any place, charge, or other favour." The Gazette of the TWQ Sicilies contains a Decree, reducing the number of voters in tkie Special and Criminal Courts, in consequence of the difficulty of procuring a sufficient number of voters, and that criminal justice may not be de layed. F rtANKFORT, APRIL 12.—(Extract front the " Spectateur Oriental," of the 9th Feb.)—Prioce Ypsilanti, much discontented with the Moraites, and their continual dissention, has left the Morea with a corps of troops for Rornelia, whither he marches to aid Ulysses. After his abdication, the Chiefs of the Army were, Colocohoni, the Bey of Magna, three Pri mates of the Noma, four of Hydra, and two of Spezzia. This species of Senate has issued orders to Ilydra and Spezzia, to arm vessels and proceed to Missolongi.—The object of this expe dition is not known ; but it is supposed to be to resist the Turks, should they attempt to pass in that direction to the Morea. Three Pachas of Mace donia have orders to proceed with troops to Ro melia and then to the Morea, but the inhabitants of Elib have closed the only three passages by which they can defile. Invitations have arrived at Tina, for Hellenists to hasten to the field of battle, with a formal promise of pay. At Hydra the superior class have subscribed to form a garrison of 1,000 men ; they have also armed six vessels. The rich inhabitants of Hydra have sent their property to a place of safety. Four convents of Monte Santo, situated in the plain, have been plundered by the Turks. Those on the heights still resist. AUGSBURG, APRIL 7.—The Allgemeine lung contains a private letter from Frankfort to the following effect "It is to-day (the Ist April) a week since we received the positive news of the sudden turn which the negociations of the mediating Powers with the Porte had taken • it was brought from Vienna by an express to the house of Rothschild. Since that time the accounts that have reached us, partly by ex preases partly by the ordinary post from the Danube, have be come daily more warlike, and hardly any body now doubts that the breach is inevitable. On the whole thisimportant news has made an agreeable impression here ; for, excepting that class a persons who desire the continuance of peace for their oraii in terest, that is, the holders of great sums in Government paper, it would be hard to find any body who would disapprove of such a war as that which is on the eve of breaking out in the East of Europe. All persons not phinged in egotism have long re. garded with abhorrence the abominations in Turkey, and they have never given up the confident expectation that suffering humanity would find a suppOrter in the generous sentiments of the Emperor Alexander. Never was a war more popular than that which is now at hand—never was one which was approved in such a degree by public opinion throughout all Christian Europe. If the Powers of Christendom required an extraordinary contribution to make ,war on the Turks, • they would:find the purses of their subjects open, to promote the noblest object of expelling hordes, of incorrigible Barbarians from civilized Europe. " If it accorded with the views of the Cabinet to invite the as. sistance of corps of volunteers, thousands would be found -ready in all countries to follow the holiourable call and march to the East. These crusaders would not be excited by religious fanati cism; they wouldfight for the cause of the civilisation of Europe. That those who, relying on the assurances which were given with so much positiveness from Vienna, up to the last moment, are now in - great apprehension, is quite natural ; but another question that deserves to be weighed is,•whether these apprehen sions are well grounded? It :is true the Vienna Papeahas been eon. stantly declining for eight days, which must naturally have pro duced no small effect on our market, filled as it is with paper to excess ; but the fall of the Vienna Paper, notwithstanding tke almost certain prospect of a war, is by . no means so considerable as to excite any real apprehension in those who are able to keep back their.paper. It is otherwise, no doubt, with those lobo have been jobbing without sufficient capital. Reflecting capi talists are by no ineans_of opinion that a war in the East will have any considerable effect on the AinxtriEM State Paper cur rency, even if Austria,should -take an active, part in it, since in this case if could only gain and enlarge its power. Even if it should have need of a new loan s it would easily raise it without depreciating the paper whiCh it has already in circulation.'

One letter from Venice states that . the Turkish fleet had landed 10,000 men at Modene, and then sailed back to the bar danelles. 4`' VIENNA, APILIL K. PUBLIC FUNDS.
