Our ancestors were imperfectly grounded in some economical principles, yet in matters of general policy they had a correct ieu tf the objects to be attained. In the preamble of a prin eipal act regarding the plantations, it is expressed that—they being peopled b 7 subjects of this kingdom—the intention pro posed is to maintain a greater correspondence and kindness be tween them, to keep them in a firmer dependence, to render them more beneficial and advantageous, to make the navigation to and from the same more safe and cheap, and, that which com prehends all the rest; it being the usage, of other nations to keep their plantations' trade themselves,' ' to make this king dom a staple, not only of the commodities of those plantations, but also of the commodities of other countries and places for the supplying of them.' The colonial possessions of this country, scattered over the whole world, are not to be considered only as resources of inexhaustible wealth and 'power ; but as affording the oppor tunity, and imposing the duty, of meliorating the condition of humanity. having abolished the slave-trade, and standing as yet single in the discontinuance of it, Great Britain has made regions, which heyetolore served as an arena where European nations carried on their contests, the scene for the civilization of a long despised but interesting portion of mankind. It yet remains to be seen how far a steady perseverance in this system of benevo lence may shame other nations into following our example; and w e may be assured that the ruin, or even the decay of our West India Colonies would (in addition to the other incalcula ble evils which it would bring upon the mother-country) be hailed by those nations who have obstinately refused to come iiito the policy of the abolition, as the undoubted consequences or a *ash experiment, and would be a signal and encouragement for the indefinite extension of the slave-trade." FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. PARIS, APRIL 12.—1 t is said that the King of England will arrive at Paris on the 18th of June. Some of the Journals stated that all the En glish Naval Officers had received orders from their Government to set out immediately for England. The fact is, that only one has received orders to hold himself in readiness to depart. Three commercial couriers arrived on Wed nesday at Paris, at the house of Mr. Rothschild, hanker, one from London, and the other two from Vienna. 'Fite current report yesterday at the Exchange was, that one of the two couriers brought intelligence that the negociations, had been re-opened between the Porte and Russia, through the intervention of the mediating powers. We hear from Ulm that the march of the Austrian troops, who were ordered from Lom bardy to Naples, has been countermanded. Several German Journals speak of a treaty of alliance, offensive and defensive, between Russia and Persia, a secret article of which guarantees the possession of Armenia to the Schah, after the expulsion of the Turks. The Austrian Observer of the Ist is still silent respecting the great question of war, and gives som e trifling accounts of the Turkish and Greek fleets. The Gazette of Augsburg of the llth states that the Porte has given a decisive answer to the ultimatum, and rejects all the propositions of the Russian Cabinet. It is reported that a great banking-house has received expresses from Germany and England, bringing confirmation of the rupture of the nego ciations between Russia and the Porte. It is said that that the Count de Golowkin, the Russian Ambassador at Vienna, has formally de manded of the Austrian Government that Prince Alexander Ypsilanti, who is detained in the for tress of Mongatz, in Hungary, shall be set at liberty. Our correspondence from Madrid of the Ist April informs us that Admiral Valdes, uncle of General Meg°, was chosen Presi dent of the Cortes for the ensuing month.— The last letters received from Madrid are dated Ist April, at midnight. They agree that the capital was perfectly tranquil, and make no men tion of the absurd statements of the assassination of General Itiego, &c. said to have been received by a letter, dated Ist April, 11 P. M. It is now certain that General Berton ar rived at Saint Sebastian on the 2cl instant in a chasy, marZe ; it appears that he embarked at Nantes. FRENCH FUNDS. April 10, Five per Cents. April 11, Five per Cents. April 12, Five per Cents. Opened at Rose to Closed at B6 f. 75 c. FRANKFORT, APRIL 12.—The Augsburgh Ga t the of the 11th April has news from Constanti nople of the 11th March, of which the following is an extract : " The Turkish Government continues its preparations for war with the greatest activity. Terror seems to have seized the Franks who inhabit Pera. An abyss is opened before their eyes. The Porte exerts itself to maintain the tranquillity of the capital in this critical moment; but at the commencement of hostilities a great catastrophe threatens all Christians. Ex cesses took place even at the beginning of this month, but inder has happily been restored. " Every body takes arms, and the Government no longer re spects the rights of nations ; for, at the beginning of this month, it caused many vessels to he seized under different flags, among otkers, several Austrian vessels. The remonstrances of the Ambassadors of Austria and England have not succeeded in obtaining the release of these vessels; in short, what was fore teen by those who know the spirit of the Turkish Government and the feelings of the nation has come to pass. War and the extermination of the Greeks are the order of the day with all the Mussulmen. Great misfortunes have been prepared for the Christians of this capital, by giving them hopes in which sen. bible people never placed any credit, but which have however influenced the greater number. Flight is become impossible. It will be necessary to wait till the Turkish Ministers adopt measures for the security of the European Ministers; then a certain number of other persons will be able to escape at the same time. _ Lord Strangford has received positive information frorri Odessa, that the fleet of Nikolajew was equipped, and that the Russian . Government would commence hostilities if it had not received a satisfactory answer by the end of March. [ It must be observed that when this was written the rejection of the ultimatum was not known at St. Petersburgh.l—(Editor of the Constitutioniwl.) " From this moment every body thinks of saving his fortune, Tor sooner or later this city will be the theatre of pillage and as sassination. Yesterday, in the Grand Mosque, the Ulemas Pronounced an Anathema against the Christians. " By a letter from Trieste, it should seem that the Pacha of Egypt is preparing to take possession of the island of Cyprus, of Which the Sultan has appointed him Governor." VIENNA', APRIL I.—Private accounts from Constantinople, or rather from Pera, to the 11th March, state that the Franks of Vera were in the greatest disquietude, believing themselves menaced with universal pillage in the event of a declaration of war on the part of Russia. It is said that Lora Strangford had received positive intelligence that the Russian fleet of Nicolaiew Was completely equipped, and that in the event of the rejection of the Ultimatum, this fleet was to put to sea and commence hostilities early in the present month. . • - • - It is believed that the Russians will attempt a debarkation near Constantinople, There is a strenuous contest between the Russian and English Diplomatists at the Court of Persia. It was reported at Pera, that the Ulemas, or Doctors of Law, had pronounced a solemn ana thema against all. Christianity in the Great Mosque, formerly the Cathedral of St. Sophia. The Spectateur Oriental has been forbidden to make political reflections. BERLIN, APRIL 6.—Our State Gazette con tains the following remarkable article : " Accounts have been circulated in the public papers, which have excited general apprehension respecting the possibility of preserving peace in the East. Though the negotiations at Con stantinople, as well as at Vienna, are a political secret, we are however authorized to declare, that nothing has happened which can he assigned as a ground for these apprehensions.— Not a word has yet been pronounced by any Court which can be considered as a declaration of war, or which must lead to such a declaration. With the undoubted wish of his Majesty the Emperor of Russia to avoid war, if it can be done in a man ner compatible with the honour of his Crown ; with the most po sitive assurances of the Divan of its willingness to remove every cause of offence to its powerful neighbour ; with the zealous efforts of the Austrian Ambassador, and of the Prus sian Charge d'Affaires at Constantinople, to induce the Porte to the performance of its treaties ; with the convictions of the Divan that these Ministers are actuated by the purest motives in advising it to preserve peace by concession, there is the best founded hope that the difficulties still existing will soon be re moved." BERLIN, APRIL 6.—Sotne persons have been disposed to consider the article in the State Ga zette, respecting the state of the negociations with Turkey, as official, which, however, is not the case, as it was inserted only in the unofficial • part o fthat paper.. STOCKHOLM, APRIL 2.-Our official 6-azetle contains the following article : " Letters from Constantinople of the 9th of March, which have been received here by express, say, that the head of Ali Paella has been exposed at the gate of the Seraglio, and that the Pacha was betrayed by his own people, the usual fall of traitors. His treasure was estimated at 40 millions rix.dollars Ham burgh Banco. The friends of peace fear that the Turks, in toxicated by this success, may break off' the negociations, and that the influence of the Janissaries over the Sultan may be ef fctital." COPENHAGEN, APRIL 6.—The King is so well, that no more bulletins will be issued. He looks well, but must not leave his room. Exchange on London, April 946. ST. PETEusuuzwu, 111Ancu .12.,—txchange on London, 9. 9-1 1.4 CI PSIC, Miacli the accounts which we have received for some days past from Vienna, Warsaw, St. Petersburgh, &c. are of a very war like tendency ; and people believe that the hos tilities between Russia and Turkey are at hand. The Greek Prince Cantacuzeno, who has just arrived here from Dresden, is said not yet to have received his passports to proceed to St. Pe tersburgh., NUREMBERG, APRIL 3.—(Extract from a pri vate Letter.)—The news which we have received from Vienna by the courier of to-day are of the very highest importance. The Russian Senator, M. Tatischeff, continues to hold frequent con ferences with Prince Metternich, the Minister for Foreign Affairs. Although nothing transpires in public concerning the objects under discussion between these two statesmen, yet some who are not in general ignorant of what passes at Court appear to believe that the result of the negocia dons which have been carried on at Con stantinople will give rise to a total change in the line of policy pursued by the diffe rent Cabinets. We no longer hear of an offen sive and defensive alliance, so positively de clared to have been concluded, or at least to have been proposed, some months since be tween the Courts of Vienna and London.— On the contrary, we are now told of an intimate alliance between Austria and Russia, in which Prussia will also be called to join. No doubt is entertained but that the mission with which M. de Tatischeff is charged relates to this object ; and from the attentions which are paid by the Court of Austria to this negociator, we are led to presume that he will be success ful in this important project. Great activity prevails in the Chancery of the Aulic coun cil of war. Expresses are repeatedly dispatched to the Generals in command, as well in the l3ukowine as in the Bannat of Temeswar. Con siderable reinforcements have been marched into those provinces from Bohemia and Moravia.— Austria is putting herself in a situation to station a respectable army on the frontiers the instant hostilities have commenced between the Russians and the Turks. AIX-LA-CHAPELLE, APRIL 5.—A special mes senger sent by the Austrian Chancery of Foreign Affairs has brought important dispatches to the Russian Government. They are believed to re late to the Affairs of Turkey, in which the Cabi net of Berlin is disposed to take an active part. It is said that a distinguished diplomatist will without delay set out from Berlin for Vienna, to fulfil a mission, the object of which will be readily presumed. It is said that a corps of Prussian troops will he employed conjointly with a Russian corps d'armee, to ensure the execution of the measures of precaution determined upon by the Cabinet of St. Petersburgh, for the safety of the coasts of the Baltic. A MERICA.—A report prevailed in December last, that the United States ship Franklin had been blown up at sea.—The following positive contradiction is indeed GRATIFYING INTELLIGENCE. We have only time to inform our southern friends that we have just learned by the ship hope, from Montevideo, that the United States ship Franklin, Commodore STEWART, and schooner Dolphin, Captain CON NER, arrived at Rio Janeiro the latter end of November, all well.2(Arew York Gazette.) NORFOLK, MARcil 10.—Arrived, the brig Eliza, RILEY, 43 days from Rio Janeiro ; left, 23d Jan. brig Pleiades, from Philadelphia, discharging.

The United States' ship Franklin Captain STEWART, and the schooner Dolphin, CON NOR, %tiled from Rio Janeiro for Valparaiso, the 25th December. Extract of a letter from Edinburgh, dated April 10th : " Lord ROSSLY N has surrendered himself, and is just now be fore the Sheriff.. Mr. STuAnT is to return immediately from France for the same purpose, as he is apprehensive they do not mean to try him but keep it over his head. If they put him in gaol, he will force on his trial.—P.S. Lord Rosslyn, after some consideration, has been admitted to bail." On Saturday, William Murray Borthwick of the Glasgow Sentinel, present prisoner in the tolbooth of this city, was served with an indictment, for breaking into the office of that paper, and taking away papers out of lock-fast places, to stand trial before the Circuit Court of Justiciary at Glasgow, on Monday the 22d instant---( Edin. Courant, April 11.) An aged female residing in Stanhope-street, Clare-market, was accidentally burned to death yesterday. It appeared that the unfortunate individual's clothes caught fire, and no person being present to give assistance, the sufferer after a few hours excessive pain breathed her last. Paris. Papers of Thursday and Friday have arrived, and contain, a repetition of the intelli gence we communicated on Saturday of the Porte having consented to' re-open the negocia- Lions with Russia through the intervention of the mediating Powers. We are not at all surprised that Austria, particularly, should exert every effort to avert hostilities, for it is impossible she can regard, without serious alarm, the partition or the conquest of Turkey, which would bring the greatest portion of her frontiers in contact with Russia. Indeed, if the Wallachians, the Servians, and the Greeks of the peninsula, were subject to the dominion of Russia, the Austrian Monarchy would not only be open to that ambi tious Power, on one half of her frontiers, but also be exposed to danger from within, because many of her subjects, professing the same reli gious faith, and speaking the same language as the Russians, may naturally be expected to feel a predilection for Russia, and prove dangerous subjects in the event of any differences arising between those two Powers. In the case of a partition of Turkey, the Austrian Cabinet would be compelled to demand her share, and such a demand must be enforced at the head of one hundred thousand men ; but this measure is not to be effected except by withdrawing her troops in Sicily, Naples, and the Lombardo-Venetian Kingdoms, and thereby endangering her sway over the Italian States. We are, •however, of opinion that the exertions of the mediating Powers will not be crowned with success in in ducing the Porte to accept the Ultimatum, from the conditions of which it is well known the Emperor ALEXANDER is determined not to recede; and that it will eventually prove the SULTAN has yielded to the wishes of Austria and England to re-consider his last decision, for the sole purpose of gaining time to complete his preparations for war, which have long been and are actively pursuing in every part of the Otto man dominions. En a preceding column we have given copious extracts from the French and German Papers, which have arrived since our last. Spanish Papers to the Ist instant have arrived, which represent the capital as perfectly tranquil, and state that Senor VA LDES, the uncle of ItIEGO, was chosen President of the Cortes for the ensu ing month. Some of the provinces, however, are still in a state of agitation. [Extract of a Letter from the Agent at Constantinople, dated March 11.] cc This Government has renewed its purchases of corn, and though our wants are apparent, and our supplies chiefly depending on Russia, the answer of the Porte to the demands of that pow er is such as to render the issue of this great ques tion very doubtful. Captain FELL, of the Sultan, for Alexandria, reports that a native brig from Candia to the former place had been taken and carried into the port of Casso by a Greek armed vessel, and liberated by a British tender belong ing to the Cambrian frigate. The Ipscree squa dron had been out 23 days without being heard of, and it was supposed to have gone in search of the Turkish fleet, which however, it was re ported, had reached Patras." We have been assured that there are upwards of twelve thousand English Residents in Paris. There are certainly many others in various parts of France. The number of the former is pro bably exaggerated, but that there are a vast number of British Absentees in that country is certain. How reprehensible are these persons, who, in the present state of Agricultural Dis tress at home, squander on foreigners, the natu ral enemies of this country, as they have always been styled, that money, which, if employed at home, would be a national relief. They must be despised by the very people who profit by their total destitution of patri otic feeling and common humanity. The un fortunate case of Mr. IAOVEDA.Ir holds forth an awful warning to those Protestants who go abroad to give their children a foreign education. His just complaints are treated by the French Legis lators with indifference, if not contempt, and there seems no probability that he Avill obtain any redress or relief.—A tax on Absentees has often been proposed, and it can never be more properly carried into effect than at the present mo ment. That some are obliged to leave the country from the pressure of necessity, and to avoid their creditors, and' others from ill health, is probable, but some qualifications might be adopted ; and the general result of such an impost would indubit ably be a national benefit, and might have ob viated the measure of dismissing the inferior of of Public Establishments, and reducing them , to poverty and despair. We see a recent instance of a man who gommi4ed suicide, in consequence of his discharge without a due provision for the support of himself and family ; and if others do not resort to the same degperate expedient, there can be no doubt that a great number are reduced to the extreme of distress. This lamentable state of things constitutes a powerful appeal to the justice and humanity of Government. IRELAND.—We have this morning received a mass of Irish newspapers, which we are sorry to say contain the accounts of numerous outrages, none of them, however, distinguished by very remarkable atrocity. On the other hand, by the activity of the Magistrates, many of the disturbers continue to be apprehended, and lodged in gaol. Amongst these, several men have been secured in the County of Limerick,vi ho are affirmed to have been among the prime movers and principal leaders of the insurrection. One of them is named John Rock, and is called, in the account of his apprehension, the Captain of the persons with whom he was taken into cus tody, but it is not distinctly asserted that he is the notorious General Rock, whose name has be come so terrible in the South of Ireland. OW the person of a man named Denis Egan, apprehend ed near Roscrea on the night of the .sth instant, there was found a manuscript book, containing the oath of the Unitedmen,—the pass-words of the insurgents.—the genera! united toast, —and a catechism. IVe shall insert a copy of this do cument to-morrow. Amongst the obligations of the oath, is one " To fight three deep in orange blood,—the crying of children, the moaning of women, or the groaning of men, not to daunt me, for the restoration and continuation of the long promised liberty to the Catholic Church."—At the Cork Assizes, Charles Bate man, a private in the Clonakilty Yeomanry, was tried for the murder of 1 1 ,yrnicx BUCKLEY, and acquitted, it being proved that the shot which killed the unfortunate man was fired by another person, who absconded. The Judge, before the prisoner was discharged, said that " unquestion ably there had been a homicide committed ; but he had no doubt that the prisoner was perfectly innocent of it."—Our Readers will recollect that this trial grew out of the seizure of an illicit still, and the apprehension of two men who were working it, near Clonakilty. The 'two men were tied together, and placed in front of the military party, when, an attempt having been made at rescue by a large mob, one of the yeomanry discharged his piece at BUCKLEY, and killed him on the spot.—At the same assizes, Mary S'lanley and William Leary, her servant, were indicted for the murder of DAVID STANLEY, the husband of the female prisoner. It appeared that a criminal intercourse had taken place be tween the prisoners ; and the wretched woman hrd long instigated her paramour to the murder of her husband, which diabolical act he at length effected. Though both prisoners had made con fession of their guilt, yet from a legal defect in the evidence affecting the woman she was acquitted. Leary was executed on Thursday last. In the French Chamber of Deputies, on Thurs day, a Report was made from the Committee of Petitions, on the Petition of Mr. LovcoAy, com plaining that his daughter had been seduced to become a Catholic. The facts of this case are already fully known to our Readers. The Re port, which was ordered to be printed, after stating that Miss LOVEDAY was free to chuse her religion, recommended the Chamber to pass to the Order of the Day, which was agreed to by a considerable majority, after a violent opposition. On Friday evening the Duke of Yonic after dinner left Newmarket for London, and arrived in town about seven o'clock on Saturday morning. The Duke and Duchess of GLOUCESTER ho noured Drury-lane Theatre with their presence on Friday evening. The Princess AUGUSTA ho noured Covent-garden Theatre with her presence on Friday evening. On Saturday evening the Princes AuGt7sT.k, the Duchess of KENT, and the Duke and Duchess of GLOUCESTER, honourvd the Italian Opera with their presence. KING'S TnEvra E.—We were much gratified by the repetition of the new Opera I Preten denti Delusi on Saturday, the effect of which is much increased by some judicious alterations and curtailments by BEGNIS. Our limits pre vent a detail of them, but we cannot refrain from noticing a spirited chorus in the second act, which takes the place of a tedious recitation, now omitted. CURIONI surprised us by omit ting a beautiful air at the commencement oc the second lict, to which his voice would have given considerable effect. The Duo bet Ween DE BEGNIS and his wife, " lo di Milo son contento," which we have heard several times at the. Ora torios, receives an additionakp effect from the scene, and the excellent acting which these per formers bestow on it. It was admirably given, and called for an unanimous encore. PAcci and DE BEGNIS also received great applause in a spirited duet. But we have no room to particularize, and therefore must omit noticing several other pieces equally deserving of notice. On the whole, it went off with increased effect, and is likely to stand its ground with the other novelties of the season. 'We should notice the acting of DE BEGNIS in his address to the Purse—it was ex cellent. No praise is too great for Madame DE BEGNIS. The House was crowded with fashion able visitors, and the Ballet, as well as the Opera, received the warmest applause. . . EDINBUnGiI THEATILE.-Mr. C. KEMBLE CONitinUeS to attract brilliant and crowded audiences to witness his excellent actingl. Since our last notice he has performed several of his best characters, such as Charles in the School for Scandal, Pe truchio, and Benedict, in the admirable comedy of Mach ado about Nothing; and in all of them he shewed that he possesses powers of a very superior order. He was most ably supported by Mrs. SIDDONS, in Lady Teazle!, in Catharine, and in Beatrice. In the latter character this lively and interesting actress displayed a spirit and a playfulness that rendered it a highly finished performance. Mr. TEllity's Dogberry was sin gularly effective.—( Edinburgh Courant ' April 11.)- The Winter Theatres are in future to close by the end of June, and not to open until the 15th of October. The LittleTheatre in the Haymarket is to open by the end of May, or beginning of June, and to cease performances by the 15th of October. All the restrictions upon performers at Drury-lane and Covent-garden, preventing them from playing at the Haymarket, are to be taken •off. All the Minor Theatres are to be brought strictly back to their original rules, and their licences confined to the exhibition of spec tacle, and to recitative in dialogue. THE MARKETS. CORN EXCHANGE, APRIL 15. NVe had but few fresh arrivals of Wheat this morning, and those from Essex and Kent, a very small proportion of which was of fine quality, which description sold rather freely, on full as good terms as on this day se'nnight ; but we continue without any demand for the interior samples. Ba:ley is is. per quarter lower than on last Monday, although the arrivals have been but moderate; but owing to the•dull state of the Malt trade, the maltsters are not disposed to in crease their stock of Barley, even at the present low prices.— Oats sold on as good terms as this day week, but the trade. was far from brisk.

The dancing was resumed after supper.. The music was conducted by F. Cramer, of Brighton. The ball-room and gothic entrance hall were most splendidly illuminated.
