CHOLERA IN LONDON..—An Order in Council, dated the 14th inst., was received here on the 16th to put all z vessels arriving at any of the out-ports under a precau tionary quarantine, until examined by a medical rum for the purpose of ascertaining the state of the health of the passengers and crews, but to be released immediately from all restraints, provided the persons on board were iri good health, and free from any suspicion of cholera.

Several vessela have arrived from the river, and after an examination been liberated. On Thursday arrived the Danish schooner Sorblometen, A. Feick, master, from Nyborg, with grain for Jersey, and is under quarantine.

Luneau's proposition to reduce the charte." cn the al lowance to the Ministers of the Catholic religion was in the following manner :- 1 Archbishop of Paris 25,0011f. instead of 50,1)00f. 13 Archbishops at 15,' 00f 95,000f 325,000f. 66 Bishops at 10,000 f 660,00 , f 99 ,000 f SO making a total of S-O,OMf. instead of 1,365,000 f. forming a having of 48.5,000 f. The Hon. Deputy also proposed that all Bishoprics, the establishmevt of which ‘‘ as not authorised by the Concordat of 1801, should be suppressed as they became vacant. A discussion took place in a desultory manner on the points, after which the first part of M. Luneau's amendment, reducing the salaries of the Episcopal .ee by a sum of 485,0001., was put to the vote, and adopted by a considerable majority. CHAMBER OF PEERS, FEB. 16. The Count de Tascher brought up the report of the Committee charged with the examination of the bill for aln , lishing the compulsory cdebration of the anniversary of the deaih of Louis XVI. The report said that the total aboliiion of the law enacting the celehra'ion of the anniversary would be an insul! to the Kingly dignity, which was part of the constitu tional charter, and would be nothing less than a de claration that because Charles X. had been deposed in 1830, the death of Louis XVI.,-Wyears before was justifiable. It therefore proposed to substitute for the bill, as sent up by the Chamber of Deputies, the two following articles :—" I. On the ilst of January in every year the Courts and Tribunals shall continue to refrain from sitting. 2. All the other dispositions of the law of Januaryl9, 1816, are repealed." The report was ord ted to be printed, and taken into con sideration on Tuesday next. CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES, FEE. 16. The diseussioii of the budget was resumed at the 3d chapter of the budget of the department of public Instruction and public worship. A number of amendments, proposing various re ductions on this chapter, were successively rejected without any discussion of the slightest interest, and the chapter reduced to 27,290,300 fr. was adopted. Chapter 4.—" Endowments of the seminaries, 1,100,000 f." This was adopted after some opposition. Chapter .5.--" Diocesan expences, 2,630,0001." The Committee proposed a reduction of 500,0001. and M. ttivin one of 630,000 f. The latter was rejected, and the chapter, as reduced by the Corn mitt ee, adopted. Chapter 6. —" Relief fund, 1,082,3001." — Adopted, a reduction of 500,000 f. proposed by M. Glais riezoin in the allowance for repairing and re building churches baying been rejected. Chapter 7.—" Sundry expences, 240,0001." A reduction of 140,0001. was proposed by M. Eschasseriaux, to be made by abolishing the Royal Chapter of Sr. bur, after an uninteresting dis cussion, it was rejected by a very small majority. A reduction of 50,0001. proposed by the Com mittee was then adopted.—Adjourn e d FRENCH FIiNDS, PARIS FEB. 17.—Five per C en t s., 96f. 90c. 95c. 07f. 96f. 95c. 90c. 85C.; Four per Cents., AK ; "I hree per Cents., 664: 30c. 33c. 40c. 30c. 40c. 50c 40c. 20c. 23e. ; Rank Stock, 1,6100 1,6 , 7 f. 50c. 1,6051. ; Rente d e Naples, 771. 9 0 c. 70c. ; Royal Spanish Loan, 73% ; Rente Perpetuelle d'Espagne, 52%7 , ; Haytian Loan, 2101, Exchange on London, one month, paper, 25f. 45c.; money, 251 45c. ; three months. paper, 25125 e. ; money, 251 25c.—Cours Auf hentique., BRUSSELS PAPERS.

(From the Independent of Saturday.) BRUSSELS, HALF- PAST 2 O'CLOCK.-We have just received from our correspondent at Berlin a letter, the importance of which requires that we should communicate its contents to our readers with as little delay as possible. (Private Corresponileuce of the Independent.) DISARMING OF PRUSSIA. BERLIN, FEB. 10.—I can give you intelligence which you may deem to be almost official; it comes from the most authentic source. Prussia disarms! The day before yesterday the Government took the resolution of disbanding the foot regiments until June next, with the exception of a sufficient portion to mount guard. Orders have been given for the execution of this decree, and an injuhction has been issued to reduce the service merely to the Guards; and these w.-re to be employed only on the most urgent occasions, in order that the portion of the troops remaining in the service may be limited to as small a number of men as possible. This measure, which will lie carried into effect throughout the army in 15 days at the farthest, will at once convince France and all Europe of the entire sincerity of the pacific intentions of Prussia; and thus Frederick 111. will have obtained the glory of having taken the first step in endirtz that state of doubt in which, up to this moment, both Princes and people have been involved, and which has nearly paralysed the general interests of the Continent. OUR LADY'S CHAPEL, SOUTHWARK.— Anoth,r meeting of per s o ns anx i ous to preserve t hi s in teresting relic of Gothic arc:iitecture was held at 't ILLIS'S rooms, St. James's-square, on Saturday ; Mr. ROBINSON, the ar c hit ec t, was ca ll e d to the, Chair. letter was read froth the Bishop of WINCHESTER, con gratulating the meeting on the triumph tin:) , had achieved. The report of the Committee was read. which stated that an application would be made to Parliament on Tuesday next for an addition to the new Bill for mlltiog approaches to the New London Bridge. The subscriptions already received were 1,6001 , and the estimated expense would be 2.5001. Mr. PAYNTER, Mr. S. TAYLOR, Mr. SAUNDERS, and Mr. BarrroN, severally addres•ed the meeting in support of their object of obtaining a larger vista to view the church th ,n would be allowed by the Act now before the House. The inciting agreed to a peti. tion to the II use of Commons and a memorial to the Lords of the Treasury. EXTRAORDINARY ROBBERY.—One night last week a lad was sant to the workhouse, to get the weekly allowance for his own fat , er and one or two others, and in returning through Queen-street was at- j tacked by a person who demanded his money. The boy railed out " murder !" and thieves!" and upon assistance coming up, they sucreerbd in taking the supposed high• wayrnan, who turned out to be the lad's own mother, ois guieed in male apparel. The affair has been hushed up.— Aehtish Ganik. Oa Saturday the Lord Mayor entertained at din ner several of his Majesty's Ministers and a dis tinguished party, which included many of the Nobility, and a large proportion of the more eminent citizens. Among the company present were the Duke of Sussex, Lord Grey and Lady Georgiana, Prince Talleyrand and la Duchesse de Dino; the Nlarquis and Marchioness of Lansdowne, and Lady Louisa Fitzmaurice ; the Duke and Duchess of Richmond, the Dike of Devonshire, the Marquis of Cleveland, Lord and Lady Albemarle, and Lady Caroline Keppell; Lord and Lady Sefton, and the Ltdies Molyneux; Lord Camperdown, Lord Pal- • merston, Lord Melbourne, Lord Goderich, Lord Al thorp, Lord Morpeth, Lord Auckland, and the lion. Miss Eden; Lord Hill, Lord Dover, Sir James and Lady Graham, Lord Nugent, the Dean of Hereford and Mr•. Grey, Mr. Charles Grant, Mr. Robert Grant, the Hon. Mr. Stanley, the Lord Advocate, the Attorney-General and Lady Denman, the Soli citor-General, Baron Rothschild, the Chairman and Deputy Chairman of the East India Company, Seijeant Bompas, Serjeant Wilde, 1160. Ml'. Pon sofiby, Mr. Vernon Smith, Mr. F. 133 ring, Hon. Mr. Lamb, Mr. Phillips, Mr. Spring Rice, Sir F. Burdett, Sir J. C. Hobhouse, Mr. Hume, Mr. Cal vert, Mr. Brougham, and several Members of the House of Commons. The arrangements in the Egyptian-hall were made on a scale to suit the number of the company invited, and nothing was omitted to render the scene of festivity worthy the d'stinguished parties as sembled on the occasion. The tables presented a rich display of massive plate, with tripods and other similar devices ; but the ornaments which fixed every eye, and excited universal admiration, were some varii-gated glass vases, execdted by Mr. Guiiby, the same artist by whom the grand colossal design has been carried into effect. Nothing could be more beautiful than the infinite diversity of their colows, as reflected in the flood of vivid light that was poured upon them from above. Those who delight to exhibit their taste in decorating the costly board, can find no works of art more splendid and appropriate than the,e rare samples of British talent and ingenuity. The first toast was, of course, the " Health of the King," which was received with much enthu siasm. The LoRD MAYOR, in proposing it, dwelt upon the paternal character of the Monarch, and h is un ceasing anxiety to promote the welfare of his peop'e ,; This was followed by " The Health of the Queen, which was received with the warmest applause; and the Lord Maytir, in proposing the toast, eulogised the domestic virtues of her Majesty—her attention in advancing the interests of British manufactures — and the earnest ztal with which she promoted every charitable object. The LORD MAYOR then gave, " The Health of his Royal Highness the Dike of Sussex,"—an Mus t, ions personage, who had ever shewn the most cor nal sympathy with the feelings of the nation at large, and who had ever manifes ed the strongest interest in all that concerned the welfare of the city of London. Drunk with much applause. The Duke of SUSSEX, in returning thanks, said that he looked with much pleasure upon every occa sion which brought him into social intercourse with the citizens of London ; and that pleasure was at present much enhanced by the fact, that the gentle• man who now filled the office of Chief Magistrate was in every respect so welt fitted to preside the interests of a great metropolis ; and the inhabi tants of that city had proved how well qualified they were to appreciate the services of such a public funct onary, when they had elected him a second time to fill the office of their Chief Magistrate. lie need not say that it afforded him the greatest plea sure to see himself surrounded, as he was on that occasion, by so distinguished a company, including, a, it did, the Noble Earl at the head of his Ma jest)'s Government —a Nobleman who had, through out the whole course of a long political life , watered to those principles with which his career had corns menced. Hanes'y and sincerity h a d ever mar k ed his conduct ; ant h ey might confidently rely upon the future, from the knowledge they possessed of the past. His til jesty now had a Ministry every way worthy of his own high character; and with a King and a Ministry true to their cause, the people had nothing to fear. The LORD MAYOR (ben got up to propose " The health of Prince Talleyrand," the representati ve of a neighbouring Mon Arch, with whom, and with the count)) , over which he ruled, be rejoiced to think that this country had so lona cultivated a good un derstanding. He hoped that that good under standing would still continue to be promoted, and that the distinguished individual whom he had then the honour to include amongst his guests, would, as he had often done before, lend his good offices to watds the preservation of that peace which had so lone and so happily endured. Prince TALLEYRAND having acknowledged the compliment, The LORD MAYOR then rose to give" The health of Earl Grey, and the rest of his Majesty's Mi nisters."—(Great applause.) The reception which that toast experienced, convinced him that he need preface it with very few remarks. The admiration universally felt towards the distinguished Statesman at the head of his Majesty's Government proved the elevation of his character ; and the manner in which the mention of his name was that day re ceived, proved that the citizens of Loridon were not wanting in that gratitude which such di-tin guished services should ever command. The Noble Lord and his collea g ues in office had had great dif ficuitie, to contend against, and they had mastered those difficulties with a degree of skill and integrity which did them infinite honour ; and they might now look forward to the reward of those high qua lities in the complete success of that great measure which the public had been so long and so anxiously anticipating.—( Great applause.) The toast was then drunk amidst loud cheering. Earl GREY had to return his in rdequate but most sincere thanks for the handsome mariner in which the toast had been proposed by the Lord Mayor, arid for the very flattering reception it had met from the company—a reception which at that moment almost overpowered him. He felt that he owed mr.ch to the too great partiality of the Lord nryor and of the illustrious Duke, who had both done him the honour to mention the labours of himself and Ina colleagues. They had given him credit for merit that perhaps he did not deserve ; but they had not given him too much credit for devotion to the inte rests of the country, or anxiety to promote the sound arid safe principles of public liberty, and those reforms of the State so much ❑eeded and so long desired by the inhabitants of this country. From the moment City had bet n called to the councils of the - King) the•r unceasing endeavour had been to reduce the expenditure of the country to the lowest possible point ; but it unfortunately happened, in too many n•stances, that wheie they hoped fur reduction they had to incur increased expenco, but they had never discontinued their effor 8 for promoting that eco nomy which the condition of this country so moon demanded. In attending to those highly important considerations, they laboured with equal zeal to maintain the mtoitu ions and to secure the peace of the cout , try. That they had dif ficubits to contend with all would be ready to admit; but none, excepting those who had shared those difficulties, Mid justly appreciate their amount. He hoped, however, that in time they would all be overcome; he entertained a sanguine, he might say a perfect hope, that the peace of Europe would be preserved. He fully agreed with those who thought that the time had passed away when they would be induced to think that any two nations could regard each other as natural enemies. He hoped that impolitic, unwise, unchristi a n max i m was giving way to that enlightened policy which would suggest to us notions that each was inte •rested in the prospetity of the other, and that the only rivalry which ought to subsist between them was an emulation in the arts, and an anxiety t surpass each other in the improvement of every social institution. From the hour he came into office to the present moment, everything that had occurred confirmed the hope that those anticipations would be realised.—(Loud cheers.) In originating the great que•tion of Reform, then under the consideration of the Legislature, he was aware that he had incurred a great responsibility, but he could no more doubt the propriety of so incurring that responsibility than he could doubt that that great measure would be eventually crowned with success. He was aware of the anxiefy felt on this subject by the public ; and he would not allow himself to doubt that their wishes would be real zed—for the great measure was advancing steadily to a certain and successful issue. —(Cheers.) They might rest assured that no effort, on the part of himself or his colleagues, would be spared to aid in perfecting that great work. If it had experienced som e delays, the fault was not with them. They had ever used their best endeavours to accelerate its progress ; . and he hoped the time was not far d stant when they would be enabled to congratulate each other on its completion.—(Applause.) The Duke of SUSSEX then gave" The health of the Lord Mayor," who, Aar returning thanks, gave " The Marquis of Lansdowne;" and the Noble Mar quis, in turn, gave " The Lady Mayoress," after• which the ladies retired. " The health of Lord Hill" and of " The Mar quis of Anglesea" were successively drunk. For the former the Noble Lord returned returned thanks himself; for the latter Mr. STANLEY expressed the necessary acknow ledgmento. The Wght Hon. Gentleman said the days had gone by when Ireland could be governed by division, and the object of the present Govern ment would be to govern them by even-handed jus tice, without looking to the right hand or to the left. — (Applause.) The healths of the Attorney and Solicitor-Gene r +I, the Lord Advocate, and a variety of toasts, were afterwards given, and the company did not rise front table till after eleven o'clock. THE TITHE PIG. The following hoax, lately played on a reve rend gentleman residing in a neighbouring county, better known for his love of the good things of this world than for his " longing after immortality," has excited considerable mirth, and is told as a fact, with great glee, by the lovers of fun. Mr. 8., a regular church-going farmer, anxious to secure the good-will of his reverend pastor, selected the best roaster his stye afforded, and sent it to him by a man well known in the neighbourhood by the significant appella tion of " Foolish Jack." Jack, highly deFghted with his task, put the young pig into a bag, and set out with his burthen with a glad heart, in an ticipation of the welcome he should have at the rectory. He was no churl, and could not confine within his own breast the pleasure he felt,but hastily communicated the purport of his mission to every friend he met. Passing by the house of a be nefactor, Mr. G. who was standing at the door, Jack could not resist the gratification of telling him that he had a tithe-pig in his bag for the parson. Mr. G. had no sooner heard Jack's tale, than the wicked thought of hoaxing the Rev. Gentleman entered his head, and he accord- inglv invited Jack into his house to take a cup of beer. Jack accepted the invitation, and plac ing his bag containing the pig in the porch, went into the house, While Jack was regaling himself in the kitchen, Mr. G. speedily accom plished his waggish purpose by taking the roaster out of Jack's bag, and putting into its place a young dog. Jack soon returned to his charge, and hastily shouldering his load, made the best of his way to the rectory, where he soon arrived ; aid knocking at the jolly priest's door, gained admittance. The nature of Jack's mission was no sooner made known than the worthy Rector stood before him, anxious to behold the prize. Jack, equally anxious to gra tify his desire, quickly untied his bag and tum bled out—to the chagrin of the Parson and the terror and confusion of poor Jack—a young dog. Jack was breathless with amazement ; and the Rector raged, and threatened the immediate pu nishment of poor Jack, and vowed vengeance to wards the farmer. In vain Jack declared it was implacable, and to avoid chastis e m en t J ac k h a d a pig when he put it into the b ag; th e R ec t or was to depart from the rectory in h as t e . T h e trans formation was too much for p oor J ac k. H e was nearly overcome, and could scarcely sustain his load when he returned to Mr. G.'s, to whom he told his astounding tale with a woeful counte nance, who again invited him to cool his parched lips with some beer. Placing his bag, as be fore, m the porch, Jack entered the house, and revived his drooping spirits with a cup of ale. Meanwhile Mr. G. took his young dog out of the bag and replaced the pig therein. A little refreshed, Jack then shouldered his bag and re turned to the farmer's quite chopfallen, and en tered the house almost lifeless. He told his hor rible tale of the pig being turned into a dog when he reached the parson's, and, to confirm, as he supposed, the truth of his narrative, he again emptied the contents of the bag, when, lo to the still greater horror of poor Jack, the pig came out. The farmer was more enraged than the Rector —Jack's protestations of its being a dog at the Parson's were in vain. The firmer vowed h e s h ou l d i nstantly take it back, and he would flog him besides ; and was about to put his threat into execution, when the Rector's man arrived with a note from his master, de- , mandi ng t h e immediate attendance of the farmer at t h e rectory, to make an apology for the in su l t g i ven to him, in sending him a dog instead o f a p i g. The farmer and his family were now more confounded and terrified than poor Jack. T hey were all amazed, and looked upon th e transformation as a miracle. The story Was b uzzed about, and pronounced by the credulo us as a judgment upon the Rector for his inordinate loveof tithe- pigs.—Liverpool Chronicle. Letters from Manchester state that the trade of that tow❑ has materially improved within the last few works,--Slireeld Courant. HIS MAJESTY'S MOST HONOURABLE PRIVY COUNCIL: SIR,-In the consideration of the measures necessary for the security of the general health of the metropolis, ii appears to this Board that few things can be more opposed to that desirable end than the existence in the interior of its most populous parishes of burial grounds, where the accumulation of the remains of the dead is such as to Preclude the possibility of corpses recently interred be ing sufficiently covered with earth, or, where leaden coffins are used, secured by other means to prevent noxious exhalation proceeding from them, an evil of serious con sideration in itself, but more especially so when the ap proach of an infectious disease like the spasmodic cholera is to be apprehended. In anticipation of such a possible calamity, the Board lately instructed the Medical Officers acting under their controul, while pursuing inquiries they had directed them to make into the state of the metropolitan burial grounds, to direct their attention to suitable plans for the interment of the dead, as well under the view of relieving the existing parish burial grounds as to provide against any suddenly increased mortality. The report of the Medical Gentleman employed in this service, with its accompanying documents, the Board here with beg to transmit, which will sufficiently illustrate what is above stated. The Board have also learnt from other respectable sources that such is the general aversion on the part of landed proprietors to dispose of any part of their property for the purpose of a burial ground, that no land could be obtained for this use sufficiently near the metropolis, especially on its northern, eastern, and southern limits, except at most exorbitant pr;cee, which difficulty would of course be increased were it known to the proprie tor that the ground sought was for the interment of per sons dying of the cholera. One exception to the above alone occurs on the western side, in the establishment of the General Cemetery Company, who have lately purchased a tract of ground comprising about fifty acres, situated on the road to Harrow, about three miles from Cumberland gate, which it is proposed to appropriate for general inter ments, similar to that of the Pere la- Chaise at Paris, a measure which appears to merit the countenance of Go. vernment. This Company have proposed to the Central Board to let or sell to Government a lot of the above tract, comprising about seven acres, to be used for interments of the dead from cholera, an arrangement which appears highly desirable, as the remains of only the wealthier classes will find admission to the Cemetery Establishment, from the considerable fees which must be demanded to remune rate the proprietors. Viewing all the difficulties of the matter, both under the ordinary circumstances of the public health, as well as under the contingency of the cholera, the Board feel them selves called upon earnestly to recommend to the consi deration of his Majesty's Government the compulsory but equitable appropriation, under legislative authority, el open spaces of ground on the outskirts of the metropolis, for general interment in connection with the respective parishes. The remaining reports on the state of the burial grounds will be forwarded as soon as received ; but the Board con ceiving that the evidence of the fact of the highly dan gerous state of the burial grounds in the ne-tropolie, as af fecting health, to be amply established by these docu ments, and considering the case urgent, forward them, though incomplete, for the information of the Government. I have, therefore, to request, in the name of the Board, You will be pleased to lay the same before the Lords of his Majesty's Must Honourable Privy Council. (Signed) G. STEWART, Chairman. C. C. Greville, Esq., Jan. 23, 1832. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. ('From the Prirtsmouth Herald of Sunday.) PORTSMOUTH, FEB. 18.—Ilis Majesty's st;im -vessel Confiance, 2, Lieut. H. F.

I STATE OF TRADE.—The woollen cloth trade which generally begins to improve in February, is still very flat in Yorkshire, and many of the manufaeturer a are woe king short time, and diminishing the number of their work-people. The home trade is dull, and the foreign orders scanty. Well-informed people, however, AT of opinion, that the restoration of public cotifidene • which would certainly arise from the passing of the Rennin B 11, could not fail to secure the revival of trade, if the inann factoring districts rem on free from the cholera. The blanket trade was scarcely ever so dull as at present. This to , y be partly owing to the mildness of the wintcr Ere season having always a considerable influence upon ti:e demand for that article. In the stuff tr de there is not much cause fur complaint.; a great ti-al is doing, but the prices are scarcely remunerating. A failure of some c•inse. quence in Brad'ord in the course of the present w ek has ha I a depressing influence on that ma, ket. Flannels are vet) , little iu demand ; the American t;,r ff h,s rot up t ,e trade dreadful y, and the • ffect continue.. to be seri hs'y felt in Rochdale, and the whole of that inanufaciming Bookings (baize,) which used to keep a crest number of the operatives in employment, are n tiztie in demand, owing to the unsettled state of the , markets in South America, to which the manufacturers do iiot choose to venture their good s e x ce pt u p on order.
