tt all the estates of the Convents were

declared national property, and destined to pay the debt ; conic.
quently persons who paid a quit-rent to the religious Orders were
allowed to exonerate themselves by delivering to the Board of Public
Credit the value of the capital in vales or other paper currency of the
State. The Rettorator having replaced the religious Orders in
possession of their property, they have demanded that those
redemptions shall be annulled, as they had not consented to
them, and had not received the value. The Crdisk of the Pith
January, issued at the instance of the Council of testate, pro-
' nounces them null, and condemns those who owe the quit-rents to
pay what has become due since the redemption took place. A
Commission of the Supreme Council of War met on the 10th, to
try General Came, formerly a Royalist 4.ml rilicro, who has been
long imprisoned as author of an insurrection like that of Bessiere.
The prosecutor required that he should be sentenced to death, and
then in consideration of his former services, that the sentence should
be commuted to ten years' banishment to Ceuta.
The General's Counsel wart to make his defence on the 13th, and
sentence would have been pitied, but•just as the proceedings were
going to commence, in Order from the King enjoined the Court to
proceed no further.
In the night of the 16th the house of Mad. Ducasse, widow. at
Arbannals, near lionleaux, was robbed of money to the value of,
above 100,000 franca in gold and silver. Every anemia is taken to
discover the robbers.

We have received German papers to the 12th instant,
which contain various accounts from Greece. The troops
before Missolonghi are said to remain in the same situation
as at the date of the previous advises. The delay which
ItLusertin l'Aeria has experienced in taking the place is
attributed to the secession of the Albanians under I SM A E L
PAC II A to the number of "3 er 4,000. These papers add,
that the accounts given in the Missolonghi Greck Chronicle
prove that the details in the Journal des Drbals and the Con-
stitutionncl of the 20th January are barefaced falsehoods,
and that neither the unsuccessful attack on Missolonghi
by the Turks and Egyptians, nor the subsequent naval
victory of the Greeks, has the least foundation in fact.
Co imcoorno NI is said to have made two fruitless attempts
on Tripolizza, in the last of which his life was in danger.
lie was then waiting for reinforcements from Argos to make
another attack.

The Provincial Deputation that has been some days in
town, and has hail several interviews with Lotd Live a-
root., and other Members of the Cabinet more immedi-
ately connected with the financial and commercial relations
of the country, has yet received no definitive answer as to
the intention of the Bank Directors ; but Ministers arc
understood to be desirous of removing the objections en-
tertained by the Bank, on the subject of an advance of
money on the security of articles of merchandise ; but it
is believed that the Bank Directors, even if they should
eventually concede the point, will not do so until after the
debate expected to take place to-morrow on the motion of
Mr. THOMAS WILSON.

The Letter of "AN ENGLISH MERCHANT," in our
columns of to-day, will be read with deep interest. It
throws much new and valuable light upon the subject of
the Silk Trade, and will serve to guard the advocates of
free trade, so /hr as this manufacture is concerned, from
relying too confidently on their general results, when the
details which lead to them are thus obviously erroneous.
The writer discusses the points most dwelt upon in the
late debate, and the facts which he brings forward cannot
he too widely known. Notwithstanding the assurance of
success with which Ministers appear to look forward to the
system of opening our ports to foreign goods, the public
'mind seems full of apprehension as to this issue of the
experiment. How far it will contribute to regenerate our
commercial prosperity remains to be seen. If Great Bri-
tain can furnish silk to surrounding countries at a cheaper
rate than they can provide themselves with it elsewhere, iu
that case the fears of our manufacturers are groundless ;
if, on the other hand, the jorrign manufacturer can bring
silk into this country at a price far below that at which it
can be produced in this country, where the wages of
labour are so much higher, it is then equally certain that
the British manufacturer will be driven out of the Market,
and that the millions which went to the support of our own
population will be expended on foreign workmen. Ilow
the industry of our operative weavers, and the prosperity of
the silk trade of this country, are to be promoted by the
operation of this principle, seems to us inexplicable. In the
meantime the risk to which the public tranquillity is ex-
posed is so imminent, and not only the contingent danger
but the immediate evils are so great, that we cannot quiet
our alarms, even under all the inspiriting predictions of
the Economists : we would say most willingly de republica,
not desperandum ; but, after all, we cannot shut our eyes
to the approaching crisis, and at preheat we see no
prospect of its being averted.

CITY, SATURDAY EVENING.
The agitation in the Money Market was in no degree
diminished to-day. Indeed the triumphant majority by
which the Ministers bore down Mr. Ectices ptopo,ition
evidently showed that the free trade system would pro-
ceed ; and therefore speculators naturally looked, at least,
for further temporary financial distress, whatever ultimate
results may accrue from the measures of the President of
the Board of Trade. This morning Consols opened, in a
feverish state, at 783 i. it was, however, immediltely
whispered that the brokers connected with the Bank Di-
rectors were purchasing—that the great house in Thread-
needle-street would yield to the wishes of Government,
and advance money on goods: that persons applying to
the office in the South Sea House would get Exchequer
