the treatment which had previously been followed.
As' soon us the Minister of War was made ac-

Excellency sent thither the Baron Desgenettep,

the most scrupulous attention.
It results from the reports made to the Minister
a War, that the malady which prevails in the Mili-
tary School iv an inflammatory fever, combined in
some individuals with an ataxic character. It is in
no respect contagious.
Professional men have recognized that this epi-
dcmy has been occasioned by the humid and warm
tasusterature of the atmosphere, the continuance of
aouth-west winds, and the extraordinary and almost.
',ohmid of deptession of the barometer during
arsenal days.
Thi• aliments, the beverages, the regimen, sad
the whole management of the house, were found te•
be conformable to the strictest rules of health.
It is to be presumed that the epidemic will cease
as soots as the weather becomes cold and dry. The
Fescue season gives season to hope that the intr.".
site of the malady will progressively dimioish.--:

LONDON,
WEDNESDAY. JANUA&T 9, IN g.

The Conner of lest night, upon the authority of
letters from Smyrna of the 28th of November, in.
forms its readers that the city of Smyrna was the
scene of some violent excesses on the 41st end e3d
of the month, in which some lives were lost ; bet
it is quite incorrect in stating that " these facts had
not before been made public." If the Courier
had taken the trouble to look to this Paper of
Monday last, it would have found all these cir.
cumstances mentioned in un article of intelligence
from Smyrna, dated the 29th of November, ex-
tracted from the Oriental Spectator. The tumults
from which Smyrna suffered so touch had their
origin, on the 17th of November, in the murder of
• Sclavonian, ■ subject of Austria. by a Muscat.
man. The murderer, inflamed by religious enthu-
siasm, or the confidence of impunity, did not
seek to escape. The Austrian Consul immediately
demanded satisfaction upon the assassin from the
Podia, but this demand having been unsuccessful,
the Scluvonians in Smyrna, assisted by many other
Europeans, undertook the task of punishment,
and the result was a general battle between the
Turks and the other party. The Mussulrnans, as
usual, considered every Chrisliun an enemy, and it
is said in the Oriental Spectator that three hundred
persons, and in the letters alluded to by the Cou-
rier, that five hundred persons lost their lives in
the general confusion. The house of the French
Consul was threatened with an attack, but his fi►m-
uess preserved him from outrage. It would seem
that no t ffort was made by the Turkish Au►horities
to reef-ore tranquillity until the 27th, when the Eu-
ropean Consuls joined in addressing a spirited re-
asomorance to the Fuchs ; and in consequence of
this, it is said, that a Sarder W:l4 appointed to
patrol the street., and at the time of the depar-
ture of the latest advice• the town once more en-
joyed the appearance of tranquillity.

am the head of Frankfort. states, that a courier had I
arrived at Vienna on the night of the 25th lam.
with an account that the Porte hid accepted
the Russian siltioNefam on the 19th December.
A ',We in the Nada at Vienna is noticed as evi—
dence of the credit attached to this litter intelb.
gmtee ; but that may have been the efftct of the
refutation of the report of • revolution in Con-
stantinople.

We this day present to our readers two addi.
tional financial statements, which cannot fail to be
studied with much interest. The first of them we
indeetl in a great measure anticipated yesterday, by
the abstract which we gave of the net produce of
the Reverse► in the years ending respectively the sth
of January 189/, and the Sth of January 1822 ;
bat the sccosat now published distinguishes the
quarter and the produce of the Corlidated Fund,
as separated from the annual (tuner and such other
heads of the Revenue as are applicable to the ordi-
miry service of the year. The second account
•hews the produce of the Excise during the years
and the quarters ending respectively as before men-
tioned, distinguishing the amount of the receipts in
the several articles which are charged with the
Excise duties.
In the first account it will be observed, that
in the portion of the general Revenue which
is known as the Consolidated Fund, there has
been a deficiency in the last year to au amount ex-
ceeding one million ; but in the annual duties
there is an increase nearly to the like amount, and
unon a much smaller total, and in the war taxes of
Excise-mid Customs there is also a considerable
increase. The result of the whole account shews
an increase in the year amounting to 597,2251. as
compared with the total produce of the year pre-
ceding. The net receipts of the Revenue for the
year just terminated, including the arrears r,f the
Property Tax, ■nd the unappropriated war duties,
amount to the prodigious sum of 50,965,939 L—a
sum which we think it would be scarcely advisable,
under any circumstances of the country, during the
continuance of peace to increase. Of this im-
mense sum, however, nearly forty-four millions are
locked up io the Consolidated Fund; end even this
appropriation, however large, is found to be insuf-
ficient to meet the charges upon it. There are
therefore but little more than six millions properly
applicable to the ordinary expenses of the years so
that it has been found necessary to empower the
Commissioners for liquidating the national debt.,
to open the magic barriers of the Cane.
Whited Fund, and to pour out, under the de.
nomination of a loam to the Goversonent, the sum
of twelve millions annually for defraying the cur-
rent expenses of the country. This mode of pro*
ceeding is sufficiently ridiculous, and has been
con.inued long enough for the admiration of the
world. It is mereichild's play, and ought to be ter-
minated, sad the ensuing Session of Parliament
will, we trust, offer a fair opportneity for relieving
the financial system flow so much unnecessary and
expensive complexity.

Yesterday afternoon the Duke of YORK held a
Levee at his Of in the Horse Guards, which
was numerously attended.

Ambairredor to Londoa, vacant by the resignation

Letters have been received from the Island of Do-
miuica, dated the 9th of No►emnher. They contain
the melancholy tidings of r dreadful fever, that in a
few days cut oft' three officers, one serjeant, two
corporals, 56 privates, and four women, of his Ma-
jesty's sth regiment of foot, out of 137 who landed
there the month previous. Only Colonel ENE!,
Captain Kysu, Ensign WYATT, and eleven pri-
vates, we►e fret from the attack, all the rest being
either dead or in the hospital. The names of the
officers who died are, Major BISHOP, Lieutenant
ARMSTRONG, and Lieuteuant EQUINu. The coin-
patties at the station are, Majors BISHOP, SIM-
COMES, end KTSH. Colonel Sir C. PRATT. and
the detachments of the sth at Antigua and Saint
Lucie, were in good health on the 11th of Noveas-
her. It was repotted in the West Indies, that the
4th, sth, and 9th, are to be replaced by the 7th,
23d, and 43J regiments.
By advice. received from Ancor+. ■ port in the
Pacific Ocean, it appears that op to the 15th of'
August the fortresses at Cullom had not surrendered
to the force under Lord COCHRANE and General
SAN MARTIN. As the object was as much as pos-
sible to spare the lives of the besieged, no attack
had been made. Means had been found, however.
to cut off the supply of water at Callao, from which
it was inferred that the garrisou could not hold out
much longer.
A report has reached us that Lord Gitetevitre
and Mr. THOMAS GRENTITEE are again eaveeted
to come forward in public life. To this rumour we
lag to give the must unqualified contiallietion,
having heard from unquestionable authority, that
neither of these distinguished individuals took the
slightest part in, or contributed in the remotest
degree by their influence or advice to tbe success of
the negoeiiition which led to the recent arrangemeot
with the Buckingham party.—/Backs Chronicle:/
