LONDON. MONDAY, AUGUST 26.
Three o'clock, p.ss.
The Ptak .Won, received yesterday, are barren
of intelligamta: Tim columns of the Journal des
Delon!: are almost exclusively occupied with the
report of the trial of the persons charged with the
conspiracy ut Rochelle, betbre the Court of Anise
at Paris. It is not yet concluded, and is likely to
extend to an extraordinary length. It is now consi-
dered certain that Congress will meet at Vienna,
where the Emperor of Russia and the King of
Prussia were daily expected, and also the Foreign
Ministers, who are to assist in the deliberatione.—
The popular party in Spain are much pleased with
the new Ministers, who, there is reason to believe,
w.ll act with becoming energy and vigour.
The French Five per Cents. are 931. 93e.—Bank

THE LUTINZ.—The recent discovery of the Bri-
tiah frigate Lutiar, buried is the sands on the coast
of Holland, after having been lost so long ago as
17y9, has create much solicitude among the I Tn-
dervvriters, and has raised some curious and subtile
questions upon a point of national law. This ship
conveyed specie to the amount of about 200,0001.
sent by the British Government as a subsidy to
Prussia. The crew all perished, and neither ship
nor cargo were heard of until the present hour,
when sonic Dutchmen have discovered the remains
of thcm, as stated above. The British Government
having made insurance, claimed fur a total loss, and
was duly paid by the Underwriters. These or their
representitives have applied to the Belgic Ministers,
fur leave or assistance to fish up the specie from the
wreck, and have had a private (not an official)
answer, stating that " as the Lestisie was wrecked
during a war with Holland, the ship send cargo be-
came Dutch, and of course was not liable to resto-
ration ; but that had the disaster occurred while
peace existed, the Dutch oJrerantent would have
afforded the facilities called for, towards the recovery
of the specie." If the official answer is conceived
in thesr terms, we shall be curious to learn on what
plea the present Kiug of the Netherlands authorizes
his Minister for Foreign Affairs to treat this ship
and cargo as hostile property. In 1799, England
was nut at war with the House of Orange, but for
the House of Orange,for the purpose of putting down
the rebel faction among the Dutch, and restoring the
present King of the Netherlands to his rank and
rights us Stadthoider of the States General.

LORD LoatioNnestay......His Mrjesty's mind was
in a great degree prepared for some catastrophe from
the ex.raordinary demeanour of Lord Londonderry,
when he saw him on Friday before lie left town :
and the ownient Mr. Peel went on board the royal
yacht, before she anchored in Leith roads, on the
day of the King's arrival off Edinburgh, and an•
flounced to his Majesty that he had " very bad news
.to communicate," " What!" said the King, " is it
of Londonderry 1 " " Yes, Sire," said Mr. Peel,
" Lis services are fur ever lost to your Majesty and
Lis country." His Majesty replied " I feared this;
I observed the sad forebodings the last time I saw
him."
The two French vessels Vigilasite and Eriesu'e, which
were captured by the bmits of his Majesty's ships Iphigenia,
Sic Robert sleisur, and Myrmidon, Capt. Leeke, after each •
severe contest, in the riser Bounty, have been released, band
sailed yesterday for Cherbourg. The one which put into Ply-
mouth (Lu Petite Betsey) is also ordered to be sent to the came
pal. It appears to us unaccountable that these vessels should
