LONDON,
MONDAY, MANCH 31.

We have received Paris Papers to the and
Dutch to the 127th instant. They contain farther
particulars of the Treaty of Territorial Arrange-
ment concluded between Prussia and France. We-
sel and Prussian Cleves wele surrendered to the
French on the 13th. It is said that the city and
bailiwick of Mundrn, and the city of Darmstadt,
will be ceded to Haase, and that the city of Ha-
m:ll4 and the neighbouring bailiwicks, will form a
part of the Eleaorate of Westphalia. The king of
Pat.ssr A has addressed a Rescript to the inhabitants
of the city and principality of Neufchatel and Va-
/engin, in Switzzrland, informing them of the
cession which he has made of that country to His
14.I.rjety the Emperor Narotrou. This Procla-
mation, dated Berlin, the 2Sth of February, was
published on the 11th of March, at Neufchatel.

It affcas to lament the change, and represents it
as the result of extreme necessity. The Mewl I, oir of
the 21st, contains the Memorial of the 22d of De-
cembtr,uf CountHa apex Immo to Lord HARROWLY.
and has annexed to it a note, which we have copied,
charging the English Government with having
published the Memorial hiall the Minister;al Prints,
in contempt of Prussia, and disregard for the charac-
ter of Count HtRDrNIERO, whom it describes
in the most odious and degrading terms. In ji!s-
tice to the English Government, and as a ci mp rte
answer to the false charges of the Mow tear, we as-
sert, that the Memorial was exclonorly published in
Tug 11111/Iffi Pals' of the I2th instant ; and that
it did not come from Government, but was copied
from a Germai Paper, tr, tut; vely in our possession,

We congratulate the public upon the very able
manor-r in which the CSAICCILLLOR of the Et-
cnriaran has condufted the contrail fat the Loan
of this year. With the amount and terms, as also
a full account rf the Budget, the public are already
acquainted ; bat there are some particulars attend-
ing it, wlrch are inyerfedly known, or have been
inaccnreely stated.
The Lists amounted to four, viz. :

1 a arid k G
2 s.r Francis 11.r.ne, Messrs. J. J. Angerstcin, Jchrt
Aston, T. F. Film, ai.tl Juhu Ratty*.

R.caniu.

Of these, the three rat coalesceJ, and were cla
clared purcliastrs. 9•hey coalesced last year, with
the •ame success, and divided the •Laan among
them. The fourth and last list, that of Messrs.
Jonsi B•RNES. Cusat.rs and J•xas Steles, and
D. Riese:so, is one entirely new, and started upon
independent principles, to enable the opulent men
of the Stock Exchange, as well as the respedable

nopoly in the monied world. By this coaittiOn IA
the three first lists, the real candidates for the Loan

should awee to offer the pre.ise same terms, wit!.

unanimity so wonderful, that must m tl e
est credulity. Indeed, this is not pretend. :u be
the case, the coalition is avowed. Is it net thee a
fallacy, a wilful deception, praCtised upon outsehres,
to talk of this coalition as three distiu lists, and to

Upon the return of the new parties to the Stark
Eechaege, a general sentiment of approval w
evinced towards them, even by persons e
counter-interest had placed them under some
a-
gree of controul from the other p trties. It vas
emphatically called, " a fair bidding, a ma, ly
bidding, and, at the same time, a prudent bi-
ding; " and we confidently believe, from our km,
ledge of the charaCter of the parties, that a ground-
work has been finally laid, enough the energy f
this spirited association, to secure, in (mute, the
fair interest of Loan Suhs:ribers, and to promote,
through a medium of equitable competition, the
benefit of the country at large.

It appear' from our report of the proceedings in
the House of Commons, on Saturday, that the part
of Lord Ilse' ev Per rr's statement, in opening the
Budget, on Frida!, in which he asserted that there
was a deficiency cf 5,930.000:. in the Ways and
Means of last year, has given °Clew to Mr. rlTr's
friends, who contend that the 'torment is cot
founded in fart, and that there STralsets of that
year to make good the apparent deficiency. It ap-
pears, also, that the new taxes will meet opposition.

Saturday, v three o'clock, a Cabinet Council scis
held at Mr. Fox's Office, which was attended iv:
Lord GRINVILLL, LorJ Siosiovris, and sevtr.i
others. The Council sae till near five.
