the very antipodes of Sir James. " Chit-chat " is, an agreeable, sketchy, gossiping paper. " Truer stories of Necromancy-in Egypt and Turkey" is characteristic and anecdotal. We subjoin - the' following pleasant bit of diablerie, by way of rebuke to the spirit of these days of little faith. ; Covent-Garden may possibly make a melo-drama of it. " —, a Perote, one who knew ' the difference between allum and barley-sugar,' if ever man did, a good Catholic, a conscientious person, a dragoman, and `as such necessarily attached to truth, and never telling a lit, save in the way of business, was himself the hero, or the witness rather of the story he narrated. He was sent one morning from the European palace of —, at Pera, on business in Constantinople. He was in a great hurry. but as be reached the Meytiskellesi, or wharf of the dead, and was about stepping into his caik to be rowed across the harbour of the Golden Horn, either a nail in one of the rough planks of the wooden quay caught his slipper, or a poet on it his robe, I forget which, but the dragoman turned round, and saw standing close by him a tall and very notorious African magician, who had long been prac tising at the capital, and was known to every body as one sof the lions of the place. To do a civil thing, and perhaps to keep well in this world with one who had intercourse with the spirits of the next, the dragoman naturally sup posing he was waiting there on the water's edge only to cross over from the suburb to the city, very politely in vited him to take a passage in his csik. The tall African made no verbal reply, but smiled, and waved his hand to decline the high honour. The dragoman then conclud ing, that instead of waiting to cross over himself, lie was expecting the arrival of some one from the opposite side of the Golden Horn, stepped into his caik, which instantly glided from the quay, and shot across the port. The boats at Constantinople are all very light and sharp, and go with astonishing speed, even when propelled with one pair of oars; but people of high consideration, like dragomans, generally have two pair to their caiks, and at this time M. being in a very great hurry, told his two rowers to pull as fast as they could. When exult half way on his short aquatic journey, M. turned his head and looked back, and then he saw at the end of the quay, just where he had left him, the tall African standing starch and motionless, like a granite statue before an Egyptian temple. The drago snares boat continued to cleave the waves; it neared the opposite shore—no caik had passed him on his way ; when, lo ! as his own came in concussion with the wooden piles of the Divan-kapi. iskellesi, and he rose from his seat to step on shore, he saw the identical African wizard standing there before him, and gazing calmly over to the opposite quay where he had just left him, and whence it was impossible he could have proceeded by mortal agency." MONTHLY MAGAZINE. This is the major of the minors, the best of the second-rates. All its articles are readable, though few will be remembered beyond the day. Its leading defect is,that itaffects too much point and sarcasm. The best paper is the " Death o' the Boroughmonger ;" which, however, is far from superlative. " The Triumph of Agitation" is a cleverish political diatribe, whose great merit is that it is brief and to the point. " Notes on America" are light and readable enough, and the " Spanish Headsman" a well-told story. " Rhyming Ru minations on London-bridge" is a sprightly Imitation of Hood's favourite manner. A " Dirge for Teresa" is sweetly and tenderly written • en voici. She's gone!—she's gone!—now from the field of rest Turn softly back its sward : where lime trees weep Their flowers, beloved of bees; and graves are drest With daisies, like a flock of fairy sheep ; Lay the fair girl to sleep. The sun will love to linger where she lies, The dew to keep her covering ever green ; For her, the winds shall sing soft obsequies Of low-toned music, gentle and serene, — For such her life hath been. What dread had Death for her ? he came not near Her couch with hasty step and angry eye; Not with the anguish keen—the pang severe, The fear of heart, which some must bear, to die; — She went without a sigh. Without one shade of pain to cross her brow, One short convulsive breath—one feeble moan— We heard her last farewell ; her voice was low, But nought of sorrow trembled in its tone ; A smile—and she was gone I No early care had worn the tender ties That bound her here,—no grief her heart had bowed ; Only, too pure for earth, she seemed to rise To her own heaven—as doth some silver cloud Before the winds grow loud. She dwelt amongst us, an unconscious saint ; Where'er she passed, a holy peace she shed ; Her eye was such as limners love to paint, Smiling above some sinless infant's bed : Sweet music was her tread. She's gone I—she's gone !—ln silence make her grave, But not in tears—ye would not from its home Recall her happy soul—perchance to brave • A weary lot—too gentle far to roam Through years of grief to come. Draw back—your work is done—and now the bier Comes on—her sorrowing kindred weep around ; Raise ye the solemn hymn of hope, while here They lay the lovely in this hallowed ground, With spring's sweet garlands crowned 1 H. F. C, NEW MONTHLY MAGAZINE. " Conversations of Byron" have disappointed us. They are neither sufficiently minute, nor sufficiently characteristic to justify the pompous way—through the medium of repeated advertise ments—in which they have been ushered into existence ; the best part about them is the sketch of Byron's person : " GENOA, APRIL 1, 1832.—Saw Lord Byron for the fret time. The impression of the first few minutes dis appointed me, as I had, both from the portraits and de scriptions given, conceived a different idea of him. I had fancied him taller, with a more dignified and commanding air ; and I looked in vain for the hero-looking sort of per son with whom I had so long identified him in imaAna tion. His appearance is, however, highly prepossessing ; his head is finely shaped, and the forehead open, high, and noble; his eyes are grey and full of expression, but one is visibly larger than the other ; the nose is large and well shaped, but from being,a little too thick, it looks better in profile than in front face ; his mouth is the must remark able feature in his face, the upper lip of Grecian shortness, and the corners descending ; the lips full, and finely cut. In speaking, he shows his teeth very much, and they are white and even ; but I observed that even in his smile— and be smiles frequently—there is something of a scornful expression in his mouth that is evidently natural, and not, as many suppose, affected. This particularly struck me. His chin is large and well shaptd, and finishes well the oval of his face. He is tx , reniely thin, indeed so much so that his figure has almost a boyish air; his face is pecu liarly pale, but not the paleness of ill-health, as its charac ter is that of fairness, the fairness of a dark haired person --arid his hair (which is getting rapidly grey) is of a very dark brown, and curls naturally : he uses a good deal of oil in it, which makes it look still darker. His counte nznee is full of expression, and changaa with the subject of conversation ; it gains on the beholder the more it is seen, and leaves an agreeable impression I should say that melancholy was its prevailing character, as I observed that when any observation elicited a smile—and they were many, as the conversation was gay and p'ayful—it ap peared to linger but for a moment on his lip, which in stantly resumed its former expression of seriousness. His Whole appearance is remarkably gentlemanlike, and he owes nothing of this to his toilette, as his coat appears to have been many years made, is much too large—and all his garments convey the idea of having been purchased ready made, so ill do they fit him. There is a gaucherie in his movements, which evidently proceeds from the per petual consciousness of his lameness, that appears to haunt him; for he tries to conceal his foot when seated, and when walking, has a nervous rapidity in his mann: r. He it very slightly lame, and the deformity of his foot is so little remarkable that I am not now aware which foot it His voice and accent are peculiarly agreeable, but eff eminate —clear, harmonious, and so distinct, that though his general tone in speaking is rather law than high, not a word is lost. His manners are as unlike my preconceived notions of them as his appearance. I had expected to find him a dignified, cold, reserved, and haughty person, re• ambling those mysterious personages he so loves to paint in his works, and with whom he has been so oft- n iden tified by the good-uatured world ; hut nothing can he more different ; for were Ito point out the prominent de fect of Lord Byron, I should say it was flipparcy, and a total want of that natural self-possestion and dignity which ought to characterize a man of birth and education." " Asmodeous at Large" contains passages 0. power and eloquence. The criticism on COll rarini Flaming is marked by much acuteness. " Character of the Last Unreformed House of Commons" draws a spirited portrait of O'Con nell, to whose extraordinary versatility an ample meed of justice is awarded. " Sir J. Mackin tosh" is a so-so Essay, and that on 4 4 Bentham far inferior to one that appeared on the same sub ject some weeks since in the Examiner. " Another Epic" is a notice of a splendid poem by the author of " Corn Law Rhymes," not yet, we believe, Some of the extracts are characterised by uncommon grandeur of thought. ROYAL LADY S MAGAZINE. This cannot compete with either of its rivals ; still it deserves a notice, if only from the pains taking evident in every page. " Hesitation," is an agreeable engraving, from a painting by Meyer. UNITED SERVICE JOURNAL. The continuation of an Englishman's con versations with the Polish hero Skryznecki, is, we regret to report, non est inventus in the present number. Many and various articles of interest, however, supply its place, particularly the " Recollections of a Sea Life," which abound in characteristic observation. LADY'S MAGAZINE. Very considerably improved, both as respects its engraving and its literary department. The last contains much grace and variety. COURT MAGAZINE AND LA BELLE ASSEMBLER. This periodical, which has changed its title to one more expressive of its character, thrives well under the auspices of Mrs. Norton. The embellishments, as usual, are beautiful, particu larly the portrait of Princess Esterhazy, which, however, singularly enough, has already appeared in this very work. The prose and poetical contributions of the fair Editor, form the best portions of the literary department. BRITISH MAGAZINE. A sort of variorum edition of the British Critic or the Eclectic Review. The articles are instructive, though too exclusively clerical. A little variety, a little infusion of a lay spirit, would be a great relief to the present number. The iNlegazine, we believe, is the organ of the High Church party. IMPERIAL MAGAZINE. A dull, formal affair, chiefly occupied with commonplaces. The engraved portrait of Tel ford, the engineer, is its sole redeeming feature. SPORTING MAGAZINE. By the wide and motley class of readers to whom this work appeals, the present number will be perused with much satisfaction, for it is more than usually copious in its sporting varieties, and is properly illustrated with engra vings of very considerable marit.

Nothing can exceed the grace and delicacy of three out of four of these Landscape embellish ments to Mr. Murray's splendid edition of Lord Byron's works. The castle of Chillon is as per fect a specimen of engraving as we have ever met with. Mr. BARROW, Secretary of the Admiralty, is about to retire. It is said that Mr. EDYE, late Secretary to Sir PULTENEY MALCOLM, will succeed him. THE DUKE OF WELLINGTON.—This fore noon, a little before one o'clock, the Duke of WELLINGTON was recognised proceeding through the Horse-Guards on horseback, when a number of lellows came round him and groaned several times as he passed. His Grace at the moment perceiving the Earl of RossLYN, good hutnouredly smiled, and having dismounted, walked arm-in-arm with the Noble Earl to the residence of the Duke of BUCCLEUCH, in Privy-gardens, followed by a number of persons. His Grece seemed to be in indifferent health, and appeared to walk lame. To such a wretched state of poverty have the Venetian Noblesse been reduced, that it has lately been found necessary to enact a law (by the Austrians) to pro hibit them from selling the lead which covers the roofs of their palaces. The population of this once Queen of the Adriatic now barely numbers 70,000 souls. NEW SRAND THEATRE.—Mr.JERROLD'S new comedy of the Golden Calf, which was produced here on Saturday night, proved decidedly successful, and is not unlikely, we think, when the necessary curtailments shall be made, to have an attractive and permanent career. The plot is simple and interesting, and the characters being all well-sustained, the piece went off with applause. The manager of one of the theatres at Vienna yielded to the solicitation and importunity of court friends, and permitted a young lady to make her debut as a singer, who had the mortification to be hissed off. Not a little annoyed, the manager rushed hastily before the curtain, and addressed the audience in a stentorian voice with this brief question—" Gentlemen and Ladies, don't you like her ?" "No !" was the reply from all parts of the house. " Neither do I," added the manager, and disappeared amidst roars of laughter. Yesterday afternoon a most distressing acci dent occurred in the Hampstead-road, opposite the Gr tnge mansion, the residence of - BECK ETT, E'q., which occasioned an unusual degree of sensation in the neigh bourhood. About five o'clock yesterday afternoon, as Cap • tain HERSAUT, a French officer, of 36, Upper Gower street, Fitzroy-square, was proceeding in his cabriolet down Haverstock-hill, on the Hampstead. road, along with Hs friend Mr. SAUCER, a solicitor, of Essex-street, Temple, the latter gentleman got out of the cabriolet for the purpose of leading the horse down the hill, but, after he alighted, the horse, tieing a high-spirited animal, took fright on his attempting to lay hold of the reins, and be came ungovernable. Captain HERSAUT now lost all power over the animal, and she darted forward, anti drew the cabriolet down the hill to the distance of about twenty yards, when it was forced against the hank anti wall of Mr. BECKETT'S garden, where a poor Irish labourer, who was at the time iti the act of taking a stone out of his shoe, was jammed between the cabriolet and the wall, and crushed in such an awful manner that he instantly expired. Such was the dreadful concussion which took place, that the Captain was thrown against the garden-wall, and one of the iron spikes on the top pierced his arm, and com pletely divided the flesh from the bone. When the Cap tain was taken up, his thigh was so dreadfully lacerated, and the whole of his body so severely injured by the force of the shock, that he was obliged to be carried to the house of a gentleman in the neighbourhood, where every surgical assistance was procured for him that his melan choly situation required. He was afterwards conveyed to his own residence in Upper Gower-street, in a very dam ' gerous state. Such was the force of the concussion that the brickwork of the garden-wall was perforated with the shafts of the cabriolet, which was dashed to pieces, an d th e horse proceeded with full speed towards Tottenham. court-road, dragging one of the shafts along with him. The name of the unfortunate deceased is DANIEL APCA R. THY (a native of Ireland), of Spring-street, Shadwell, who was proceeding to Hampstead along with his brother rimorny in search of employment as haymakers. His orother was in a dreadful state of agitation when this melancholy catastrophe took place, and excited the most lively fee , ings of sympathy. The remains of the ill-fatet, !nun are now lying at the Load of Hay public-house, to await the result of a Coroner's inquest. LONDON, MONDAY EVENING. JULY 2, 1832. At length we have important and highly sa tisfactory news from Paris—the Court of Cas sation has annulled the sentence and yoceedings of the Military Tribunals—and, as a necessary consequence, Lows-PH !LIPPE has been com pelled to raise the siege of Paris ! On Friday evening the decision of the Court of Cassation was promulgated—all Paris was in extacy—and on Saturday morning the Moniteur ushered forth the Royal Ordinance, declaring the state of siege at an end. Thus has Louts•Piir- LIPPE been compelled to own his error, with the humiliating conviction that he has sacrificed three-fourths of his popularity, and endangered the remainder. The Chambers are to be immediately convoked, and it is expected that one of their very first acts will be—an im peachment of Ministers for their illegal proceed ings. Nothing had taken place as to the forma tion of a new Ministry up to Saturday evening, though little doubt was entertained that the KING would be constrained to take the liberal party, or at least a preponderating number of them, into his councils. Accounts from Stutgard state that the Bava rian circle, within which the great reform meet ing was lately held, is to be put under martial law, and other accounts repeat the statements already given, that Prussian troops are proceed ing by forced marches towards the Rhine. The three great despotic Sovereigns will, no doubt, make every exertion to crush the rising spirit of liberty in Germany, but whether their attempts will be crowned with success is another question. The people of Bavaria, who have had a foretaste of constitutional liberty, will not readily submit to the dictation of Austria and Prussia, who shared with Russia in the partition of Poland, and who, in the late struggle, were willing abet tors of the Russian Autocrat. All the Prussian provinces with the other smaller states on the Rhine, from their proximity to France, will be still more eager now than the Bavarians to ob tain some of those constitutional rights which they see bestowed on the people on the other bank of the river. The Hanoverians, living under a Sovereign whO has done more for Reform than any Sovereign since the time of ALFRED, can hardly be expected to rest satisfied with their present condition, much less to submit to the tyrannical edicts of the Continental Sovereigns ; and the wrongs of Poland and free spirit of the Hungarians, will in the East encourage the Ger man states in asserting their independent and con stitutional rights. If attempts are made to put down the spirit of freedom by brute force we anticipate a general commotion in Germany not much in ferior to that excited in 1813 and 1814 a gainst the tyranny of BUONAPARTE. Foreign troops by superiority of numbers may, for a time, check the spirit of liberty, as the French, in the reign of Louts XVIII, did in Spain, but there is hardly an instance i❑ which native troops can be induced to persevere in opposing the general wish of their countrymen. An attempt, however, will be made to shackle the press; to put down all meetings in favour of liberal prin ciples, and establish a despotic rule, unknown even in these countries. The scenes which such attempts may give rise to, are too gloomy for contemplation, though we are not without hope that the rulers of those States who are calling out for Constitutional right, will take warning in time from the example of other countries, and recollect that, by consenting to a moderate Re form, they may prevent a revolution. Mr. HUME'S motion on Mr. SAMUEL SMITH'S petition touching the case of A. So mEnviLLE, a private in the Scotch Greys, which was postponed from Tuesday last (the House not meeting in consequence of its being the anniversily of the KING'S accession) stands For to-morrow, when we trust it will be • brought forward. The case as detailed by the petition is briefly, that SOMERVILLE wrote a letter from Birming ham to the Editor of a newspaper on political subjects, an extract from which was published. His so doing, we presume, was neither an offence against the law of the land, or military law, since the man has not been tried for having, written the letter, by either. The letter, however,_ displeased his commanding officer, the man was picked out from the ranks, directed to perform,' with an unbroken horse, an exercise which even with the best trained horse is one of difficulty ; having failed to perform it, he was ordered to try again, which, considering the thing to be imprac tinable, he declined, for which act of disobedience he was immediately placed in confinement, pri vately subjected to a series of interrogatories by his commanding officer, on the subject of the letter, of which SOMERVILLE admitted he was the writer. The officer denounced the letter in no very measured terms, and dismissed him with these words, But, my lad, you are now where you will repent it." Five minutes after he was arraigned before a Court Martial, for disobedi ence of the orders before mentioned, found guilty, sentenced to receive 200 lashes on his bare back ; two hours after 100 were inflicted, and he then remained in confinement ! We are unwilling to believe the charge embo died in this petition, as, however, it has been openly and distinctly made, we trust for the character of the service it will be as distinctly rebutted. Discipline must be maintained in the army,—but not by trickery or contrivance. A soldier should not be punished ostensibly for one offence, (if any act a man is compelled to com mit by his superior, to entangle him in the meshes of military law, can be justly held to be an offence), but in reality for another. We say nothing of the letter that was written, it might be unwise, improper, or even criminal, but speak only of the mode resorted to for subjecting the man to punishment, as detailed in Mr. SMITH'S petition. What would be said of a judge or a justice, who having, we will assume, just cause of offence against another, either enveigled, or provoked,— much less by the force of authority compelled him to commit an act, that it might be construed into an offence, and form an excuse for subject ing him to punishment ? Does the Mutiny Act, do the Articles of War authorize such a course ?—or has such a practice crept into the army unsupported by law and in defiance of jus tice and authority ? It may be said, and truly, that the situation of the commanding officer was one of difficulty, and that the punishment of SOMERVILLE was awarded by a Court Martial. But the question is, " was the man tried for an act of disobedience he was driven to commit by his commanding officer, that he might be punished for another, on which no charge was brought against him ?" One of the greatest failings of human nature is the love of power and a proneness to abuse it, —but no abuse of power is so hateful as that which is masked, and surrounded with the forms of justice. A despot spares his victim such an insult ; when he inflicts torture, he does not stoop to disguse the motive. We sincerely trust that the allegation in SA MUEL SMITH'S petition will be openly met, and successfully refuted,—the character of the ser vice and the Government alike require it, since the shelter from inquiry too often afforded by former Governments never cleared the reputation of any man, however frequently it tarnished their own. In the foregoing remarks we have refrained from adverting to the practice of subjecting British soldiers to the torture of the lash, feel ing confident that a Reformed Parliament will very shortly relieve the army from that degrada tion, and the nation from such a disgrace. This forenoon, at twelve o'clock, Lord JOHN RUSSELL, the Right Hon. CHARLES GRANT, and several other Members of the House of Commons, had an interview with Lord AL THORP, at his official residence in Downing street, relative to the Scotch Reform Bill. We point attention to the address of the Polish refugees to the House of Commons. In point of argument it is unanswerable, and is besides one of the most affecting appeals we ever perused. We have no space to enter into any further comments at present. Dutch and German Papers have been received this morning.By our private information this morning from Amsterdam we learn that the Dutch Minister of Finance had arrived there, and that the KING was expected to arrive the following day. The object of their coming to the Dutch capital was not known. The private letters say that the Duchess DE BERRI had arrived there, but this requires confirmation. The Dutch Funds have improved, owing to large purchases. AMSTERDAM, JUNE 29.

The Meeting which took place last week at the Crown and Anchor, and at which Sir FRANCIS BURDETT was reported to have been present, seems to have been a mere job, got up by interested individuals for the purpose of seducing the people into an illumination of three nights. That such a mode of giving expression to public joy may be bene ficial to certain branches of trade we do not doubt for an instant ; but equally certain are we that it is one of the most puerile, idle, and utterly unmeaning exhibitions ever projected. The money requisite to get up even a decent illumi nation, might supply upwards of four thottsand poor, deierving familiei, with food and raimaift for weeks. Viewed even as a matter of taste, the exhibition in question is worth less ;—for there are no nights now-a-days —nothing beyond a grey glimmer, whict) does not steal on till about nine o'clock, 44 cannot fail to mar the effect of an illumination. VVere the nights long and dark the case would be a little improved ; as it is, nothing can by more preposterous than a project for roasting all the houses in the metropolis, till therP is literally no abiding in them. To con; vert Babylon into a baker's oven, seems to us a most extraordinary mode of testifying pub lic joy. It may accord with the tastes of Mon sieur CHABERT, or a salamander, but we are quite sure it will not find favour with the cam= munity at large. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAY.)

THOUPSON AND OTHERS. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL applied, exparte, in this case, for an injunction to restrain the defendants from selling the produce of plantations in the island of Antigua. The plaintiffs were tbe'Consigisees of the estate in gees_ can, and in that character had become creditors to the estate to 'the amount of 8,0001. The defendants, who were the trustees, without paying the plaintiffs the sum due, had thought proper to decline consignin, 2 any more produce to the. plaintiffs, -who, in justice to themselves, were obliged to come to the Court.

The plaintiffs solicitor, who was , erved with a copy of that decree, agreed that no further pro ceedings should take place at law. Inst. ad, however, of tcting up to that agreement, he had caused judgment to be signed by default, and had taken the plaintiff in esecuth n. - Mr. KNIGHT, on behalf of the plaintiff, applied this morning for an injunction to restrain the defendan from proceeding at law, and also for an order for the release of the plaintiff. Mr. K. PARKER, for the defendant, contended that no agreement bad been made between the partie., and that his clients were, therefore, entitled to the judgment they had obtained. The VICE-CHANCELLOR thought the proceeding on the part of the defendant most imprnper. No attention what ever had been paid to the decree at the Rolls, and' he should, therefore, grant the motion.

The Princess AUGUSTA attended divine service yester day morning, at the Chapel Royal, St. James's. The LORD CHANCELLOR, the Marquess of LAMS• DONNE, Viscount MELB3URNE, and Lord PLUNKET, were occupied nearly two hours yesterday with Earl GREY at the Treasury.

The lion. WILLIAM BATHURST attended as Clerk of Privy Council. The Rajah RAMMOHUN ROY sat near their Lordships, as on the former occasion. Mr. DRINKWATZR resumed his address in support of the appeals. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL, in reply, was heard on the part of the East Ind►a Company, and contended that they possessed the power of making the order in question, and in proof that the power of the Company extended so far, cited the rendering the person of the Brahmins (sacred according to the Hindoo law) amenable to the criminal law. Mr. Sergeant SPANKIE followed on the same side. Their Lordships adjourned at Four o'clock.

(From the Windsor Express of Saturday.) The Court returned to the Castle on Thursday evening, after the most brilliant week in London that has been re membered for many years past. Yesterday forenoon the KING drove out in his pony phaeton and pair, with two outriders, but unaccompanied, and his MAJESTY drove through Windsor on his return to the Castle. The KING goes to town on Wednesday to hold his levee ; and, on the following day, their MAJESTIES will honour with their presence the magnificent thjeune to be given by the Duke of NORTHUMBERLAND at Sion-•house. Previowdy to the King's birth-day, a dinner will be given in St. George's-hall, but the day is not yet fixed. On Monday forenoon, as the KING was riding in his carriage at a slow pace down Castle-street, Windsor, a man, wearing the garb of a journeyman painter, advanced to the side of the carriage, and presented a paper to the KING, which his MAJESTY received, and, after glancing at the signature, inclined his head towards the applicant who withdrew. THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. The only arrivals of importance this morning are the Dutch mail and the Estafette from Paris. By the Dutch mail the funds have come higher, about per cent. By the Estafette from Paris, we have the intormatiori that the Court of Caseation to which the condemned Geoffrey ap pealed, has annulled the sentence, and quashed the pro ceedings of the court-martial, which caused great joy at Paris, and the consequence was, the siege of Paris has been abandoned. Nothing has as yet been settled with regard to the French Ministt y. The French Funds come lower 1 per cent., 67f. 35c. We have accounts from Bologna of the 20th June; an Estafette arrived there from Ferrara, with an account of some fresh troubles in that tows, in which several persons had been killed saki wounded. Letters from Trieste state that Austria continues the preparations for war ; everywhere they are working at the fortifications, and 80,000 men are on their march to the Tyrol. The army of Italy is to be reinforced. Accounts from Toulon, June 26, state that the Go vernment has given orders to arm immediately a division of ships to proceed to the Tagus, to be composed of the Marengo and the frigate Belone, the corvettes Creole and Eglee; they are to join the English squadron off that pot t. According to accounts from Perpignan of the 21st June, it appears that the son of General Bourmont has been arrested making his escape to Spain. Consols, which left off on Saturday at 85 for the Ac count, opened at 84k, at which price they are at present. Spanish Stock rather lower. As yet we do not hear of any accounts to be depended upon of Don Pedro's expedition. HALF-PAST ONE. By our private information from Paris by the Estafette this morning, we hear that it was generally reported there, that the expedition of Don Pedro had been dis persed, h:►ving met with severe weather. We have neither reports nor political news. _ _ The Funds hive been very languid during the whole of the morning, and not the least spirit in the Market. Consols are at present at the same price they opened, S4j to S 5 for the account. FOUR O'CLOCK CLOSING PRICES.

There were pretty good su plies of all kinds of Grain last week, and a good return of Flour for this time of the year. The weather being remarkably fine keeps the Wheat trade extremely dull, and except for the primest samplesis. to 2s. per quarter less has been taken. Barley is scarce and rather dearer. Beans and Pease are unaltered. Oats meet a dull sale, and any parcel; that are not sweet are Is. per quarter lower than this day se'nnight. In consequence of some of the country Flour having gone out of condition, the best parcels are in demand, and sell for rather more money. PRICES ON BOARD OF SHIP. Wheat, Red (old) —s. —s.
