'Penal rule has passed by. Germany and Italy are fated to be free. There is a rumour that MAI. Fitsjamcs, Chateaubri and, and Hyde de Neuville, are to be tried next week. I do not believe it. The charge against them is this Berryer, in an interview with the Duchess of Berri the other day in La Vendee, advised her to escape instantly. She refused. She said that his advice, founded on the belief that nothing could now be done, had the concur rence of all her friends capable of judging. She answered that, if convinced of that fact, she would withdraw from Prance. M. Berryer wrote accordingly to Paris, and had, by return of post, a letter from the individuals above re ferred to, fully coinciding in the advice and argument of of M. Berryer. That letterr (on which the Duchess of Berri is said to have since acted) was found on M. Ber ryer, and it is for having written it that Al. Chateaubriand and his friends are said to have been arrested. A draft for 200,000 francs, paid by a Parisian hanker," some days since, to an order of the Duchess of Berri, has revived suspicion against that house, and another search has been made there, when some important docu ments are said to have been found. This is, however, a matter of no consequence. Carlistn is defunct. Two o'clock. There is not a word of news on the Change. The Funds are recovering; but still an air of gloom pervades the Bourse.

The Committee of Country Bankers had an interview yesterday with Lord Althorp, at which they stated to his Lordship their appointment as representatives of the general interests of the body to which they be longed, and expressed their desire, in conformity with the instruction' they had received, to give evidence before the Parliamentary Committee now sitting, on the state of banking generally in the districts to which they be longed. They tendered to Lord Althorp the names of seven gentlemen of most extensive connexions in the commercial, manufacturing, mining, and agricultural districts, severally, from whom the Parliamentary Com mittee would be able to elicit all the information that might be necessary. Lord Althorp appeared to think that the evidence of so many gentlemen would extend the in qu i ry i nto too w id e a range , b ut was willing to receive the names tendered, reserving to himself, how ever, the option of selecting from the number such of them as he might deem proper. One of the Committee having remarked to Lord Althorp, that he had heard a disposition existed on the part of Ministers to hurry through the present inquiry, his Lordship distinctly stated that no grounds existed for such a supposition ; that be and his colleagues were determined to pursue the matter, and to give it a full and fair investigation. The deputation left Lord Althorp highly gratified with the very polite reception they experienced, and at his promise to render the inquiry into the affairs of banking as complete as pos sible. It has been stated in some quarters, that a portion of the country bankers were inclined to enter into a com promise with th e B an k o f England, and issue its paper, Withdrawing their own from circulation, on some such principle as that laid down by the Governor of the Bank 10 his celebrated circular of 18:27. This is, however, denied, and it is stated that the only foundation for it is, that the bankers of one district, through their deputation to the general assembly of Bankers of England and Wales, held lately in London, suggested a plan of the kind, as likely to be advantageous to their interests ; but it was Ceupled with a condition that the Bank should withdraw its branches from the district, or merely retain them as a means of supplying a local circulation to the bankers.— The terms proposed have not, however, been acceded to by the Bank...-.

At the late meeting of tbe Birmingham Political Union, the following letter from the Prince of Moskowa, son of Marshal Ney, to the chairman, was read : " SlA t —lt was with feelings of the strongest emotion that my family read the Solemn Declaration of the Bir mingham Political Union. I feel strongly the necessity which compels me to record my sentiments on the subject. In holding up to the deepest abhorrence the public conduct of one who contributed so cruelly to our misfortunes, you, gentlemen, bind us to the strongest gratitude. " The man who, to gratify a bloodthirsty vengeance (against him who always fought according to the noblest laws of warfare), could refuse to save my father, when it lay in his power, from his murderers, must be unworthy of the confidence of every generous people. " Honour be to the sentiments of the independent men of Birmingham, who have secured to themselves the sympathy and admiration of all nations. Their efforts, crowned with success in this solemn victory of England over the enemies of her liberties, are a certain gage of future triumphs. The noblest cause could not perish if confided to such defenders. " I request the Hon. Secretary of the Political Union to record from this the expression of my sincerest senti. meats of cordiality and regard, to make them known to the subscribers of the Solemn Declaration of the freemen of Birmingham. " Le Prince De La NIOSKOWA. " Paris, 2d June, 1832." It was moved that the letter should be entered upon the record s of the Union, and that a silver medal, with the instription, " Presented by the Birmingham Political Union to the son of Ney," be presented to the writer; also that he be elected a member of the Birmingham Poli tical Union. The following document has been issued by the Go vernment of Brazil : (Translation.) • "Most illustrious and excellent Sir,—The frequent rob. beries and murders committed by certain foreigners, chiefly in the cities and towns (seaports), where a great number of vagabonds, beggars, and drunkards, are found, thereby greatly inconveniencing and disturbing society, and more over burdening the treasury with the necessary expenses, such as feeding, clothing, and curing them in the prisons and hospitals, have shown the necessity of putting an end to those evils, for which reason your Excellency will or der our Consuls not to allow persons to come to Brazil Without trade or occupation, who, by the depravity of their habits, may augment the already no small number of those disturbers of our society; and you will inform the Charges des Affaires of Foreign Courts, that from the Ist of January, 1833, no foreigners shall disembark in our ports, unless they present a certificate from our Consuls, declaring them to be of honest conduct, of what trade or species of industry, what capacity, and what may be their intentions respecting their destiny : you will likewise re commend to the Consuls the utmost care with respect to this, under the highest responsibility. "God preserve your Excellency. (Signed) " DIEGO ANTONIO FEIJO. " Rio, April 12. " To Seuhor F. C. de Campos, &c. &c." The following declaration, in consequence of the late atrocious attack on the Duke of WELLINGTON, has been drawn up, and placed for signature in several place s of most public resort in the city. A great number of individuals of the highest respectability have attached their names to it : " TO Mt: GRACE TUE DUKE OF WELLINGTON. "We, the undersigned merchants, bankers, trader., and others, of the city of London, having been informed that your Grace was grossly insulted by a brutal and misguided mob, in passing through the city this day, beg leave most respectfully to lay before your Grace the assurance of our deep concern, that the metropolis of this kingdom should ha v e been di•gr ace d by a Proceeding of such a character. selves Whatever mad to y be our political opinions, we feel our mpelle declare our abhorrence of such an atrocious outrage, disgraceful at any time, or under any circumstances ; but the more so, because it was perpetrated on the anniversary of a day, to the recollectio n of which all good Englishmen ought to look with mixed feelings of national pride, and of gratitude to your Grace." LIVERPOOL, JUNE 19. —At our Corn x.. cha nge this morning there was a very thin attendance of the trade. The weather being now most seasonable for the and flcoming crop s , an d t h e s h ow o f samples of wheat, oats, our, fresh arrived, being very large, caused the tr a d e to be excessively dull, and the transactions in wheat were in consequence in the merest retail way to the needy dealers, at barely last Tuesday's prices for the finest, and at a reduction of Id. to 2d, on all other descriptions. For oats the inquiry. was als o very languid ; indeed, few sales occurred, though the finest Irish were offered at 4d. to Id. decline on the currency of this day week.

Both Houses of Parliament came last night to the resolution of voting addresses of congra tulation to his MAJESTY, on his fortunate es cape from the late atrocious assault on his sacred person at Ascot, as also of expressing the deep concern they felt at there having been found within his MAJESTY'S dominions, a person ca pable of so flagitious an attempt. Lord GREY moved the Address in the Upper, and Lord ALTHORP in the Lower, House. In the latter, the resolution was seconded by Sir R. PEEL, who, with his usual candour, took the opportunity of mixing up the maniacal assault on his MAJESTY with the excitement occasioned by the Reform Bill, with which it has as close a connexion as Mr. JOHN WILSON CROKER with supereminent bashfulness. We wonder a Statesman, so discreet and proverbially respect ful towards all his superiors, as Sir Joseph Sur face, could have been guilty of such bad taste as making his MAJESTY a peg on which to hang his political antipathies. Surely the solemn occasion was worthy of a more reverend considera tion ! One would have imagined that the joy which Sir ROBERT, in common with the rest of the community, must have felt at his MAJESTY'S escape from the assault of a maniac, would have banished every other consideration from his mind; instead of which he disposed of his felicity in a brief sentence or two, and then proceeded to string together a variety of commonplace, hacknied truisms—which, by the bye, smacked strongly of the conventicle— on the propriety of men in high stations incul cating amongst the people the principle of obedi ence to the laws. Now, if ever there was an occasion which demanded the expression of reverence and loyalty, and the absence of any thing like party-feeling, this was that one, and yet Sir ROBERT PEEL, in concert with his political jackal!, Mr. JOHN WILSON CROKER, degraded it to the vulgar level of a party question, as if abuse of his MAJESTY'S Ministers, and the Reformers in general, were the sole ends to be achieved. Mr. CROKER went, if possible, still further than Sir ROBERT, for, after a few expressions of loyalty, he lost sight of his MAJESTY altogether, and degenerated into topics more congenial to his taste, such as abuse of the Press--which he, above all other men, has most contributed to degrade by his dull, pot-house jokes in the John Bull—and a vehement denunciation of the " filthy rabble" who frequent the " filthy Coburg theatre." The Right Honourable Gen tleman, we believe, has never yet turned his astonishing abilities to the stage, or we might almost be tempted to imagine that he had written a melodrame for the Coburg, and been disappointed in his hopes of seeing it performed. 64 Filthy rabble !" What, in Heaven's name, does the Right Honourable JOHN WILSON CROKER mean by this wholesale abuse ? Is he himself so aristocratical in birth, so exalted in rank, so transcendent in intellect, so little of a po litical adventurer, and so much of a political So lomon, that he can afford thus safely to sneer at all who move in a lower walk of life than himself ? Filthy rabble, indeed ! Fie, fie, Mr. C ROKER, do not dishonour a class which has inflicted so many Right ,Honourables on the country. Do not fight shy of your own dung-hill. Remember, Sir, that there are those, who, gaudy butterflies, were once—and though now this not very long ago—mere grubs, and who would still have continued such, had not luck an d impudence carried the day against merit and modesty. Who are you, Sir, that you th us dare to talk of the miscellaneous frequenters of a theatre, as a " filthy rabble ?" You may forget the site of Russell-square, and in tones redolent of Tipperary, denounce the vulgarity of those who " malt" with their dinner ; but you must not, and shall not, spit your venom on a class of Englishmen every way as re spectable, and in most instances, far cleverer than yourself. Y ou may b e—as no doubt you think yourself —an aristocrat, but it is only by suffe rance ; you may also be a prodigious politician, but it is only by the prejudice of party. In a reformed Parliament, where merit will find its level, you will be nothing, or worse than no thing. As a scholar, your claims are already given up at the bar of public opinion ; as an arithmetician you are universally laughed at, even though you may be able to calculate the exact sum-total of your unreasonable salary ; as an historian you have committed blunders of which a fourth form-boy at Eton would be ashamed ; and as a critic on the Greek tongue, you have proved by your late edition of Boswell, that you actually do not know the difference between a verb and a substantive in the original language. And yet this is the man who has the assurance to come publicly forward and denounce the re spectable middle classes of society as a " filthy rabble!" Talk of the pride of an Aristocrat after such an ebullition of upstart effrontery as this ? There is no pride equal to that which a man of narrow mind and plebeian birth exhibits, when once, to the astonishment of himselfand the world, he is raised above his level. He struts a pigmy, and deems himself a giant. He assumes the swaggerer, and imagines he is a model of genti lity. He forgets the past, and takes for granted others will forget it too. But, thanks to a Reform ing Ministry, this race of mushroom humbugs is now at an end. Schedule A has trod the vermin in the dust. The statement made by Lord ALTHORP last night, that " it was desirable that all Courts by which the subjects of the realm might lose their liberty should be open to the public," will be gladly hailed by every friend of justice and freedom. We begin to see now a glimmering of light spreading over many of those an cient institutions of the country which were originally good, but which had become debased, or rendered actually injurious by the ravages of time, or the inroads of arbitrary Go vernment. It is by light alone that their defects can be seen, and there need therefore be little surprise that those men who so loudly call out for the existing order of things, and who have so long profited by that system, should be so apprehensive of its renovating rays. In their eyes nothing is good that is new. " Our an cient institutions,"—" the established prac tice of the country,"--" the wisdom of our ancestors," are words constantly brought forward as arguments against all change. The same arguments were brought forward against the abolition of the Star Cham ber, and the Inquisition, and might in fact be advanced in favour of the grossest abuses of power ; yet in these Reforming days, men of sense like Mr. F. LEWIS, Mr. GouL BURN, and Mr. BARING, seem to stick to them with as much pertinacity as they possibly could have done at the period when all but a few admitted that Kings reigned by divine right. There are some men that hate justice from purely selfish motives—from a dread that if a change takes place they will lose their monopoly, and that feeling more than reason or common sense raises the outcry for the ancient—the venerable institutions of the country. It is curious enough, however,• that the parts of those institutions, most vene rable in the eyes of the existing order-of-things men, are those very parts which were not known in the original state of the Constitution. Rotten boroughs have grown out of abuse, and so has secrecy at Coroners' Inquests, yet these are clung to as if they formed the very soul and essence of the original institutions ; the very object of a Coroner's inquest is utterly opposed to even the semblance of secrecy. It was instituted to prevent the concealment of murder committed by one member of a family against another, and any one m a y see h ow the end may be defeated, when he reflects how easy it is for a coroner to keep back evidence if he is inclined, and how negligent a Jury may be, when they know that the eyes of the public are not upon them. There is no real se curity for justice but in publicity, and as the Jury have the power not only of defeating justice, but of depriving a man of his liberty and fixing a stigma on him for life, it ought to be the desire of every man of independent mind that such a power should not be exercised but in broad day and before the eyes of all. It has been urged that respect for wounded feelings necessarily forbids the entrance of the public into private houses, and that the Coroner ought to have the power of making exceptions in par ticular cases ; but what security is there that these exceptions may not defeat the ends of justice ? The power invested by law, in parish authorities, to visit within a certain period every house where a death has taken place, is often harassing to private feelings ; yet these are comparatively dis regarded when they stand in the way of justice and mercy, and still more ought they to be dis regarded when there is a case of strong suspicion. There is hardly an instance on record, however, where the public have been kept out to spare the feelings of the relations of the deceased—the cases of exclusion have been generally of a political nature—like the Manchester business—when a Coroner of strong party-feelings puts his autho rity into force for the purpose of screening the misrule of the Government. Such abuses ate now drawing to a close—a liberal and enligh tened House of Commons see the impropriety of leaving a question of such importance to the decision of 12 or 15 men, who often with the best feelings, and the most upright intentions, are too wedded to legal technicalities, and too little acquainted with the public feeling to come to a proper conclusion. The Legislature ought to leave as little as possible to the discretion of Judges or any class of Magistrates. They are like all other mortals, subject to party zeal, and as they are chiefly chosen from the party in power, whether Whig or Tory, the liberty of men opposed to them in politics ought never to be left at their mercy. The French Government has at length or dered the reduction of the tonnage duty on Bri tish shipping entering their ports to 1 franc, 50 cents per ton. This tardy act of justice W ill afford much relief to the private steam-boats) and will be the means of establishing a regular communication between Dover and Boulogne, as well as other ports. The ordinance is to take effect from Saturday last, the 16th inst. We refer to the French Papers, and private corre spondence, for other news. It will be seen that one of the prisoners has been convicted, but this is a triumph that will neither add to the safety nor honour of the Government. It would appear that the Holy Alliance are not only bent on suppressing liberal opinions in their own do minions, but determined to look to France. The following article from the Courrier Beige is important : ,We call the attention of the French and Belgian nations to the following intelligence, to which we have the most satisfactory reasons for giving credit. A treaty of al liance was on the 4th of June concluded between Prussia, Russia, Austria, and Holland. The diplomatic agents of the four Powers are now exerting all their efforts to pro cure the accession of the whole German Confederation, which, as is well known, includes the small States on the banks of the Rhine, as also the several Hans Towns, and Denmark for the Duchy of Holstein. The assembling of Russian Statesmen and Generals at Berlin, the long visit made to that capital by Prince Wrede on a mission from Bavaria, and the great activity which for some weeks dis tinguished the German diplomacy, are circumstances which had a connexion with the conclusion of this treaty. The date of the signature, the 4th of June, does not permit us to be rieve that the conclusion was hastened by the late events at Paris, which broke out on the sth. It is, indeed, very improbable that the results of those events should, in any respect, alter the views of the northern Powers with respect to France and the revolution, as these views ex isted before the combats of the sth and 6th of June. It is a new coalitition against principles which is now at last disclosed, becaucse the preparations for it are complete. If France be wise, she will not now wait to be attacked. The more points upon which she may merely make a be ginning the better, in order to avail herself of the good spirit which yet remains in Italy, before Anstria com pletely overruns the sentry with her troops, also to take advantage of the good disposition of the inhabitants of the Baden and Bavarian territories along the Rhine, before the agitation be suppressed by the presence of Prussian corps." The cholera seems at length determined to overrun Belgium,—it has reached Brussels, and will no doubt pay a visit to the Dutch, who have hitherto very singularly escaped its visita tion. Perhaps its near approach may mollify the stubborn character of his Dutch MAJESTY whose warlike propensities bode as little good to the Belgians as his auxiliary the cholera. Several French messengers have recently pro ceeded in great haste through Brussels to St. Petersburgh. The following are extracts : BRUSSELS, JUNE 19.—The Moniteur extracts from the Memorial Beige, without adding any reflection, an article, which states that there is a 64th Protocol, and even some others that try to give a favourable prospect of the termi nation of our affairs, and the Conference having summoned the King of Holland to declare himself before the 30th of June, or the entire evacuation of the Belgian territory by his troops by July 15, his silence to be considered as a refusal ; in this case there would be deducted from the por tion of the debt asssgned to Belgium, the arrears from Jan. 1, 1832, and the Powers would have recourse to force. It is said that France and England take upon them selves the execution, the one by sea, the other by land. There is no longer any possibility of doubting of the existence of the Asiatic cholera at Brussels. There were three cases yesterday in the rue aux Choux, near the place des Alartyres.—Moniteur Beige. CHAMBER OF REPRESENTATIVES, JUNE 19. The Chamber heard to-day the report on the project of law for a levy of 50,000 men. The central section re duces the reserve to 30,000 men ; it will be composed of the militia of the classes of 1826 to IS3I ; the number of men will be proportioned to the population of each pro vince, deducting those places the civic guards of the first van of which are with the army. GrrErrr.—Triz CHOLERA.—The cholera appears to be come rather less malignant here, or, perhaps, the persons attacked are mere prompt in seeking medical advice, and the physicians better acquainted with the disorder and the mode of treating it.

German Papers of the 14th instant mention the death of the celebrated writer F.VoN GENTS, in the 68th year of his age. It is insinuated in these papers, that a secret understanding subsists between France and the Pacha of EGYPT (a very reasonable supposition), and that France carries the matter so far as to delay accrediting an Ambassador to the Porte till the result of the present war determines the victor. Should the PACHA succeed, it is said France will recognize him, in which case the affairs of the East will assume a new and more important character than ever. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAY.)

The London Quarterly Review, in its notice of Mrs. Taom.orE's book, laments the woful condition of a country that has neither a national debt, an esta blished church, nor laws of primogenitur e ; and as an evidence of the effects of the latter deficiency, the writer says of the United States—" The money which may generous happen to be am asse d i n th e h an d s o f i n d us t r y, th r if t, and bargain-driving, i mparts to i ts possessors none o f t h e gene rous chara c t er o f an ar i stocracy ."

COMMON COUNCIL.-(THIS DAY.) ADDRESS TQ THE KING. A Court of Common Council was convened this day. for the purpose of considering the propriety of addressing his Majesty on his escape from the murderous attack made upon his life at the present Ascot races. Several resolutions were read by Mr. Taylor, declaratory of the indignation of the citiwns of London at the gross attempt that had been made upon the life of his Majesty, and of their gratification of his providential escape from the at tack, and that an address to that effect he presented to the King, and that a committee be appointed to prepare the same. After a few words from Alderman FAREIIROTHER, who seconded the resolutions, Sir P. Lauata, and Mr. Alderman WINCTIE9TER, the resolutions were carried unanimously, and the address agreed to. VICE•CHANCERY COURT.-(THIS DAY.) SIIEAN V. BEVAN, VANHOLISE, AND OTHERS. This was a motion for a reference to the Master, for the appointment of a manager and consignee of an estate in the West Indies, called the Unity Valley Estate. The plaintiff, who was the widow of a Mr. Sheen, was en. titled to one moiety of the estate, and Messrs. Van house and Co. were trustees of the other moiety, and also consignee. The plaintiff by her bill stated se veral acts of mismanagersent on the part of the ma nlger in the West Indies and the consignee, among which was the non-sending of ferrets and rat-traps,— (Great laughter,)—for the purpose of destroying the rats which infested the estate, and which had increased to such a degree that upwards of one-third of its produce had been destroyed, although between the month of August 1831, and April 1832, no less than 8,000 had been exterminated. In consequence of such mismanagement, Mrs. Shean, who became entitled to her moiety in 1828, bad not received the least benefit from it, Mrs. Shean, in consequence of receiving no produce from the estate, becoming much in want of money, applied to Messrs. Vanhouse for small sums of money, which they did not advance, alleging that they were large creditors of the estate. Mrs. Shean consider ing that the estate proving unproductive, was the result of mismanagement, filed the present bill for the purposes we have already stated. Mr. ANDXRSON appeared for the plaintiff. Mr. Peeve, for Messrs. Vanhouse, stated that they were extremely anxious that their accounts should be in vestigated. As was notorious, West India property had of late became a dead letter. They were very large creditors of the property, and it was only in consequence of not being able to obtain these items which the plain tiff wanted, that the present proceedings were instituted by her. As to the charge of mismanagement, in not sending out ferrets, and rat traps for the purpose of destroying the vervain on the estate, all that he could say was, that rat-traps were sent by the consignees from this country, and his clients were not to be blamed, because the managers in the West Indies could not get the rats to go into them.—(Loud laughter.) The ferrets also had been sent; but the Learned Counsel supposed, as it did not appear they had ever reached the West Indies, they were taken seasick on the voyage, and had given up the ghost.—(Great laughter.) The case had not concluded when our reporter left. KING'S BENCII.-(TIIIS DAY,) ROBSON V. BELL. This was an action to recover 325/. upon two promis sory notes accepted by the defendant and indorsed to the plaintiff. The case occupied the Court all the morning, and was not concluded when our reporter left. EXCHEQUER COURT.-(THIS DAY.) WORTHINGTON V. SCOTT. This was an action brought to recover the cum of 1501., due to the plaintiff for the carriage of goods.—After hearing evidence, the Jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff. Damages--150/. BANKRUPTCY CO►JRT.-(THIS DAY.) EXPARTE MARKS ♦ND OTHERS, IN RE MARKS. The petitioners in this case were the widow and son of the late Mr. John Mark., coach-maker, of Great Portland• street. James Marks, a son of the deceased, having be come a bankrupt, his assignees procured a summons from the Commissioners, calling upon the petitioners, who car ried on business as coach-makers, in Langham-place, to produce their accounts, on the ground that the bankrupt had an interest in the partnership under his father's will. The petitioners now prayed the Court to restrain the com mission from examining them upon matters relating to the business since the death of John Marks ; but it appearing that the bankrupt had an interest in his father's residuary property, and that it in part consisted of a share in the business, dismissed the petition with costs. The Court rose at half-past one o'elock. THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, TWELVE 0' CLOCK. A Jamaica mail has arrived, brought by the Pigeon, sailed on the 15th of May, and from Carthagena on the 3d of May. Jamaica papers have been received at the North and South American Coffee-house. The Jamaica Courant of the 11th of May says We have continued our extracts from the Windward Islands papers, in order to show the sad condition to which the imbecile Grey Ad ministration has reduced the once valuable appen dages of the British Crown as a sure proof of the mal-administration of the Whigs. We lay the following statement before our readers, which clearly points out the gradual diminution of the revenue, from the hour this cursed Administration was formed to the present.— The deficiency of the revenue, under the Wellington Ad ministration, for the year 1830, was 3,142,000/. ; under that of Earl Grey, for the year 1831, 9,846,000/. Owing to the Reform agitation, and the Reform agitation alone, ought such an Administration to be for one hour longer entitled to the coofidence of the nation ? Cer tainly not. By the packet ship we have received regular files of Windward Islands papers, and regret to find that from Demerara to Tortola nothing but distress prevails ; they are all groaning under the oppression of an imbecile and tyrannical Government. FROM ST. CHRISTONIER.-We are sorry to observe from a message from the Governor of St. Kitts to the Le gislature, that the cholera has appeared among the crew of his 'Majesty's ship Racehorse. We are happy to state that every thing was quiet at Carthagena when the Pigeon packet sailed from that port. Consols opened this morning at the same price they left off at yesterday-84i for the account, with little doing, owing to the various accounts received this morning by the estafet from France, and from Brussels, and Holland, all of them tending to a warlike description aimed against France. In the Foreign Market nothing doing as yet. HALF-PAST ONE. A vessel has arrived from Pernambuco, at Cowes—the letters are not yet come to band. Singapore Papers to the 3d of February, received at the North and South American Coffee-house. His Ex cellency, the Naval Commander-in-Chief, still remains ; but we believe he will depart in a few days for Penang. The sloop of war Cruizer, has proceeded to China with despatches, the purport of which are not known.; COMMERCIAL REMARKS.—OPIU3I.—The first Go vernment sale of the season, 1831 and 1832, was held on the 28th ult. Thy purchases were chiefly upon orders. 1801 chests. By the French mail this morning accounts from Brus. sels state, that the information from the Rhenish pro vinces are very hostile, the Prussians are concentrating, and two corps d'artni!e are on the war footing. It is also evident, that since the return of the King from Compeigne a change of politics has taken place in the Government. Pnats.—M. de Chateaubriand, 31. Hyde de Neuville, and the Duke de Fitzjames are not in close confinement; after they were examined Chateaubriand was conducted to the apartments of the Prefect of Police, Hyde de Neuville to that of M. Carlier, and the Duke de Fitzjames to the apartments which Ouvrard occupied in the Conciergerie. We have neither reports or any political news to the present,to communicate. Consols, whi c h were i n th e early part of the morning at 84k, are at present S 4 85, with little doing. The Foreign Market is also void of interest. Mexican Stock has receded near 2 per cent. Great fear is entertained that the dividend will not be forth.• coming, owing to Santa Anna's obstinate resistance at,Vera Cruz. We have no accounts, as yet, of Don Pedro's expedition.
