The 5 per cents. had experienced a considerable rise since the last dates from that city, and were at that time as high as S6f. 50c.; Bank Actions, 540 f.; Exchange at one month, 25f. 25c. ; and at three months, 25f. 10c. Neapolitan 5 per cents. 67i. The improvement in the French Funds had an immediate effect on our pwn Money Market, and although a holiday at the Bank, the Consols. rose at one time in the day nearly one half per cent. above the price at which they opened. Advices had been received on Tuesday in Paris from Trieste to the 13th instant, which stated that the Russian Ultimatum had not yet been acceded to by the Turkish Govern ment. The reports which have been in cir culation upon the subject within these few days, must therefore have been fabricated, as this account from Trieste brings later ad vices from the Turkish capital than could have been pre viously received.

The families contribute to a common fund for providing the necessaries of life, at wholesale prices and at the best mar kets, in proportion to the number of individuals in each family respectively, according to the following scale:— A man, his wife, and five children £1 2 6 per week. Ditto, ditto, four ditto . 1 0 3 Ditto, ditto, three ditto . 018 bi Ditto, ditto, two ditto . 017 1 Ditto, .ditto, one ditto . 016 3i Ditto, ditto, no children . 014 5 Single man . . • . . 0145 • 2 2d. The families breakfast, dine, &c. together, at the general tables; and in the evenings amuse themselves with conversa tion, reading, lectures, music, &c. in the public robin. The4in dividuals, however; are at perfect liberty, at all times, to take their meals, and to spend their leisure nours, in their private apartments. • 3d. The domestic duties of the females are performed under a system of combination, which greatly reduces the labour, and enables the females either to be profitably employed, or to com mand a considerable portion of leisure for rational pursuits and innocent recreations. . Thus, the cooking for the whole of the families being performed at once, and at one fire; occupies com paratively but a small portion of time,, and is done in a.much superiOr manner to -what is possible for small individual fami lies; and a proportionate advantage is gained in all the other departments of housewifery, such as cleaning, washing; getting up linen, &c..&c. This economy of time also enables a proper number of the females to be spared from their usual avocations, and to take under their constant superintendance, without a moment's intermission, in and out of doors, the whole of the ri children,—secung for them the best possible attention to their health, comfort, and morals. 4th. Such of the females as are not required for the discharge of the duties of housewifery, and for the care of the children, are employed, during a moderate portion of the day, in such profit able work as can be obtained, for the benefit of the Society at large. The elder children are also employed during 6 hours daily • for the common benefit, and will be carefully instructed in the principles of christianity, and in one or more branches of useful industry. The remainder of their time is occupied with their edu cation, and such sports, under the care of their superintendants, as are suitable to their age. When a child is employed six hours daily, the parents of that child are reduced on the scale of ex pences for living, in the proportion of one child less than the actual number of their family. sth. The fund to be accumulated from theprofitable employ ment of the females and children, from the surplus accruing from the scale of expences for living, and from tht•dealings of the Society, will be employed in providing profitable workfor the Members on their own anti the Society's account—in trade—and, as soon as possible, a sufficient sum will be invested in build ings, for the residence of the Members. The whole of the con gregated Society, by means of the capital acquired from the va rious sources of accumulation, will be gradually employed on its own account; in the proceeds of which every Member will have an equal interest; and by means of which the Society will be enabled to insure its Members against the consequences of loss of employment from sickness or any other cause, and their families from the usual distress and wretchedness consequent upon the death of the parents. The orphans of the Society will be in all respects treated in the same manner as the children of the surviving Members. 6th.—The Society already employs its own shoemakers and tailors, and will speedily be enabled to perform all its.own work within itself.—The Society can now promptly execute, for the public, in the best and cheapest manner, orders in carving and gilding, and for transparent landscape window blinds ; boot and shoemaking, and dressmaking and millinery. The foregoing is a brief sketch of the advantages proposed by the Society, and of the means by which they feel confident of obtaining them.—So far as they . have yet proceeded, their suc cess has exceeded their expectations.—The expences for living, in great comfort, on the best provisions, have not amounted to the rates specified in the scale; and the good agreement and the mutual good-will of all the parties, have given rise to the most friendly and satisfactory feelings and anticipations.—For a full developement of the Society's principles and arrange ments, see " The Economist," published at the Society's Com mittee-room, I,Guilford-street:East, Bagnigge Wells'-road, and by Wright, 46, Fleet-street, London, were the work may be had from No. 1, price 3d each.--One half of the profits which may be derived from this publication has been assigned to the Society by the Editor. CONSTITUTION. Ist. There are two el,sses of ,Members, resident and non-re sident. The resident Members are those who can conveniently congregate in one neighbourhood, so as to come under and de rive the advantages of the Society's economical arrangements. The non-resident Members are persons who arc desirous of promoting the success of the Society, though they cannot con gregate with it. This class of Members has the privilege of purchasing at the Society's store, on certain conditions, and are allowed five per cent. interest on any sums which they may deposit in the fund. The store will shortly be opened to the public. 2d. Each Member pays five shillings at entrance. 3d. The Society allows allows five per cent. per annum for money advanced to it on loan. 4th. All the Members are on a footing of perfect equality. The affairs of the Society are regulated by its Committee and General Meetings. sth. The Committees are formed monthly in rotation from the roll of the members. 6th. Two Actuaries, one taken from the roll monthly ; the other elected monthly, superintend the Society's affairs, under the direction of the Committees. The office of the Actuaries is however purely administrative. 7th. This Society being wholly practical, its rules are the daily or weekly arrangements made by the votes of the mem bers, as the ever-varying circumstances of life may require,— and its principles are those of social obligation and Christian morality. Persons desirous of becoming members of the Co-operative and Economical Society, are requested to make application to the Committee, at'the Society's Committee Itcom, No. I,Guil ford-street East, Bagnig7e Wells'-road, Spafields, London. The Society will ghully give all the assistance in its power, for the formation of similar associations in other parts of the Metropolis, or in the country,—being persuaded, on evi dence furnished•by e:..perience and dononstration, that the ef fects will be, to increase the reward of Lebour. end consequently to promote the cornfort of mankind,—to stlnnce the interests of r morality arid virtuc.—r. d to facilitlte the diffusion of , know ledge.

EDITOR—I am in general a decided ad vocate on the side of the measures pursued ,by Government ; but when I see the lamentable results arising from the recent determination of yielding to a clamour of retrenchment in our ex penditure, by a reduction in the Salaries, and dismissal of the lower and junior Clerks, in the various offices, I cannot but pause and reflect, if .the measures pursued are those which a wise and well-regulated Goverment ought to adopt. lam sure that if the gentlemen high in office could but feel a tenth part of the pang ti►ey inflict upon, perhaps, the father of an infant family depend ent upon his salary for support, when the dreadful notice is given him, to undergo his examination previous to his discharge, and that without any offence or fault on his part, I am confident they would not proceed in such rash measures. The daily Papers present us with too many appalling accounts how' these matters end ; and I am fearful that the public will be more and more shocked by the frequency of these distressing details, should not more merciful counsels be adopted. The Clerks in the Public Offices are most of them men of family and education ; they certainly require and are entitled to some attention to their feel ings, and not to be dismissed with less ceremony than a livery servant. A Government of en lightened men, as is that of England, ought to be liberal to those who are the efficient labourers ; and the country do not feel that the. Officers in ' the lower. departments are to be the only sufferers. I, Sir, am now suffering under the present difficulties. of the times, antl I am sure I speak the sentiments of thousands as well as m►y own, when I say that we had rather suffer double what we now do than that we should be relieved by the blood of our fellow men. The expression may be harsh ; but if you take away a man's sole dependence, you may as well say, go and destroy yourself. Your columns too frequently shew that such is the re sult.--I do, Sir, meat sincerely hope that the measures of reduction will he again reviewed, and that the country may not any longer be dis gusted by such a harsh mode of reducing the public expenditure ; a thousand ways of effect ing this object will suggest themselves to every reflecting man without inflicting wounds upon the feelings of the honest mind ; and I hope, for the honour of a country that I love, and a Mi nistry I wish to support, that our hearts may may not he shocked by any more dreadful acts committed in a moment of despair by those who have been the country's devoted servants ; I am sure if they love their Monarch they will not longer pursue such measures as must plunge his sensible and feeling heart into the greatest af fliction. Your liberal ideas, Sir, will justly ap preciate the above sentiments, which, though they may appear severe, are those of A WELL-WISDER TO HIS KING AND COUNTRY. German Papers to the 14th inst. arrived yes terday. They contain little possessing either in terest or importance. The intelligence from Russia and Turkey is of the same warlike cha racter as that previously received through the medium of the French Journals. But the same contradictory' statements prevail respecting the voluntary evacuation of Moldavia and Wallachia by the Turks, and their approaching occupation by the Russian army. Some accounts (dated January 14), express an opinion, that it would be known " within a week that the Russians had passed the Pruth."—(lbid.) [MORNING CHRONICLE.] City, Friday Evening, Jan. 25, 1822.—A pri vate express has been received from Paris, which states, that on Wednesday last the French Funds had risen to 86. The Bank has been discount ing the Rentes, winch makes the money price higher than the price for the end of the mouth, and it has been so dUring the last fortnight. There was no public news in Paris when the ex press came away. At the Stock Exchange here very little business has been - done. The account published last afternoon in an Evening Paper, of the Russian army having been put in motion on the Turkish Frontiers," had the effect 'of re ducing the Consols for Account to 76, at which they opened this morning ; but they soon ad vanced to 76k, at which price they finally closed. Russian Gentlemen acquainted with the country in which the armies are assembled, think that the season of the year must prevent any imme diate movements.—There is very little business doin g at the Corn Exchange ; the demand for grain is dull, and there is not any alteration in prices. [NEW • TIMES.] The Constitutional Association has afforded another proof of the rectitude of its proceed ings. It will be recollected that it instituted a prosecution against one Ridgway, of Manchester, who was convicted on the clearest evidence, of selling one of Cartile's seditious publications. Notwithstanding this, Ridgway had the auda city to apply for a new trial, on the ground•that the principal witness against him had sworn falsely ; and a Rule to show cause why a new trial should not be ordered was accordingly granted. Mr. Sergeant Bullock showed cause against the Rule, and produced the affidavits of six or seven witnesses, flatly contradict ing the statements on which the applica tion for a new • trial had been made. The Learned Sergeant spoke at great length, and was replied to by Mr. Brougham,, who attempted to support the statements of Ridgway and his witnesses; but the whole Bench were distinctly of opinion that there was not the slightest ground for a new trial, nor the least doubt of the defendant Ridg- . way's guilt. Some insinuations thrown out against the Constitutional Association were re pelled with great indignation by the Court as utterly unsupported by the evidence, in the case. [BRITISH PRESS.) The Dublin Papers have ceased for some time to speak of any serious outrages committed in the south of Ireland by the banditti. We seldom read of nocturnal visits in search of arms, and in such few cases as still occasionally present them selves to our notice, we find these visits unaccom panied by violence or wanton injury either to property or persons. The attack upon the corps of yeomanry in the county of Kerry, which we mentioned yesterday, had no connection whatever with the systematic outrages that have disgraced the neighbouring county of Limerick; but with respect to this event, the very worst feature in the transaction was the conduct of the commanding officer, in deliberately shooting his unfortunate prisoner. We believe that this officer, whoever he was, conceived that he was justified by law in taking away the life of this poor man. Admitting for a moment that his opinion upon this point were incontestably correct, the tranquil indiffe rence with which he seems to haw reduced his legal impressions to practice offers nothing to be either envied or commended. But the legality of the proceeding is very questionable, and if the circumstance had happened in any other part of the empire, this yeomanry Captain might have found, to his cust that he had involved ithaserf [tedltNisa lIERALth] •• ~,e • •sk The south of Ireland is again disgraced . Vy the• same description of shocking outrages whicl pre vailed before the late sitting of the SPecial•Com mission, end w hich was momentarily checkeintr the execution of some of the wretched cultitits... These shocking examples of lawless barbaritsr and crime are as injurious to the British , lam and Government, in the eyes of Europe, it they, are afflicting to humanity. I3ut yet, in this•age of projectors, speculators, and theorists of every class and kind, no practical Or feasible remedy has been adopted —or, as far as we know, thought of, by the Administration, or any of its salaried. or volunteer advisers. Public examples of the se verest punishment of the law are necessary. They. are, on every view, absolutely • indispensable, where crimes so outrageous are committed—even though the lowett state of human wretchedness be the principal cause ; but whilst the dreadful reprisal of the law is operating to repress the progress of . crime, some attemlOt should• be' made to remove or alleviate the primary source of evil and suffering. Crimes of this kind, without some thing preventive, but multiply under the sword or Justice, like the heads of the hydra under the decapitating prowess of Hercules. the political doctors of the Government of Ireland appear to practise, and have practised, with an edifying con sistency, according to the system of the renowned Dr.Sangrado—keeping their patients in hot water, and bloodletting. The mortality in both cases is pretty much on a par. The doctor, however, had the misfortune to be sooner discredited. We have heard much of the auspicious promise . of Lord \Vellesley's Administration, and still wait with some curiosity to hear with what measure he in tends to make his administrative debut. If his political be the same as his rhetorical system, and he begins his Administration as he usually does his speech, it will be something studied, striking, and ambitious.—Hitherto he has done no more than bow to the spectators. From some of the recent occurrences in Ireland, it is evident that the local agents of the public authority de mand the attention of the Government, as well as the desperate and guilty plunderers who are leagued against society.
