however, questionable. that this be really the inten-
tion of the Spanish Cilveritment, as it has before
found this plan impracticable, owing partly to the
unhealthiness of the isthmus, and partly to the want
of shipping at Panainn. It would reptire a nav,:l

101IDAT, APIJ& 11, 1819.

We suppose it is &Lunt 12 months since the Bank
of England published a notice in the Gazette,
signed according to the Act of Restriction, by the
:speaker of the House of Commons, announcing that
t4ey would pay in cash all their notes dated prior to
the year 1817. The Chancellor of the Exchequer
vaunted a great deal upon the subject, quoted it as a
proof of our increasing prosperity, and deduced from
it that file deep, croaking, unpatriotic doubts of the
solvency of the Bank were totally confuted. On
Tuesday a Bill for restricting the Bank of England
from paying their notes, issued before 1817, in cash,
received the Royal Assent, and became a law.
heave to bring in the Bill was given in the House
of Commons only the night before, the standing
orders were suspended in both Houses to facilitate
its laming, and within 24 hours it became effective.
If Ministers believe the Bank to be insolvent, we
think they have acted wisely—if net, they have done
32 incalculable
,injury to the country, by making
every one else of an opinion which they do not hold
important a question. Bank notes, in conse-
qaence of the partial resumption of cash payments,
weresecovering from the great doubt with which they
ads lung be.g.veeeived on the Continent; we have
o.::::elves repeatedly purchased them for 8 guilders
and a half, though a guinea was at the same time
a th 1 2 giiilders and a half; they were,however, like
tke bills of a house which guying stopped payment,
i.vbuso bankruptcy has been expected, but which re-
commences in a proportion its payments, •so were
the Bank of England notes restored in sonic degree
to foreign confidence. IVe sv it to learn from our
rlllerent foreign correspondents what will be the
effect of the present measure, but if it be not de-
structive of all reliance of common prudence in our
National Bank, we shall he a-tonished. The rapidity
of passing the Bill proves either the most imminent
immtliate danger, or that the credit of the

TILT: NATIONAL AEG/STEIL

country Las been wantonly and .needionaly trifled
with by Ministers.

The London Gazette of Tuesday contains extracts
of despatches from Mr Rose, British Ambassador at
the Court of Berlin, announcing the safe delivery of
the Duchess of Cambridge, who gave birth to u Prince
at Cambridge house, in the city of Hanover, at 10
minute, past 2, in ►he morning of Friday the 2Gth
ult. Iler Royal highness and the child, we arc
happy to learn, were doing as well as possible when
the accounts came away. The Duke of Clarence,
Earl Mayo, and Mr. Rose attended her Royal High-
ness's accouchenaent, and signed a formal declaration
of the above auspicious circumstance. The day fol-
lowing, viz. Saturday, March x 7, produced another,
though transient addition, to the members of the
House of Brunswick. The Duchess of Clarence
was brought to bed of a daughter, at a few minutes
past 7 o'clock in the morning ; but after being bap-
tised by the names of Charlotte-Augusta-Louisa,
according to the rites of the Church of England, the
infant expired at one in the afternoon ; all which
events were duly testified by his Royal Highness
the Duke of Clarence, Lord Mayo, and Mr. Rose,
as in the former instance. We have inserted further
particulars of these events in another part,

The King of France, according to the
,Paris jour.
nals, is to transfer his residence to St. Cloud, about
the beginning of next month. It is supposed that
his Majesty will remain at that beautiful spot until
the month of August. l.as Cases is reported to live
in retirement at Offenbach,and to have declined the
good offices of his friends, who had us.-cl .some
exertions to procure for him the liberty of returning
to France. We have no doubt that M. Las Cases is
well instructed as to those obstacles which the vigi-
lance of the French police might oppose to the exe-
cution or advancement of his St. Helena projects.
Any neighbouring county would, in that point of
view, afford this querulous and politic gentleman
more elbow-room for his secret machinations, and
he has pitched his tent accordingly. The debate on
the monopoly of tobacco was adjourned in the Cham-
ber of Deputies from the sth• to the 6th instant.
After which, the attention of the Chamber was
somewhat curiously occupied by the report on a pe-
tition from a man who claimed the eontinumice of a
pension, originally granted to him for saving the life
of Buonaparte. The Frankfort paragraphs go on
with the subject of M. Kotzebue's murder ; but
noth:ng worth•notice has been added to our former
communication.

The Brussels intelligence, by the Dutch mail, re-
lates to circumstances connected with the approach-
ing trial of the persons who were accused in last
November of a conspiracy for carrying off the Em-
peror Alexander. One man, of the name of Buchoz,
a Frenchman, now in business at Brussels, has ad-
dressed a memorial exculpatory of himself, to the
members of the High Court of Justice of South Bra-
bant. By this dicument he hopes to prove that he
had no share in the above conspiracy, and details
some particulars 11,1 previously published, as to the
manner in which it came within his knowledge.
Coder the head of Cglcutta papers we insert an
abstract of sundry small but gallant operations car-
ried on by subordinate officers in India, against the
remnant of the beaten followers of the fugitive Nag-
poor Rajah. It was chiefly the Goan& and Arall
who formed for the British detachments this petty
warfare. The dunioions of the late Peishwa, it
would appear, are not yet. entirely tranquillized.
