ST. PETERSBUBCH, OCTOBER 21.

Mr. Sparrow, American Vice-Consul at Cron-
stailt, has hero removed from his office of Vice-
Cosisul at the leilu!•st of our Government, for having
berm concerned in favouring and concealing the
coutrubssul !fade carried on by the merchant Ul-
rich'. Thirty-four millions of roubles have been
received towarik the new loan, chiefly from abroad.
As the loan remains open till 31st December, this
sum will probably receive harqe additions. The
great iniportution of silver ►till continues. The
importation of gold is not so great, but yet very
con►iderable.

LADEN. NOV. I.

The alarms which we have been exposed to begin
to vanish : from all quarters we receive good news,
arid the berg of all from Aix-la-Chapelle, where the
voice of Truth and Jingler, as might have been ex-
pected, was favourably heard, and the affairs of
Baden are decided in a favourable manner.

The march of the Bavarian troops through the
(;rand Duchy meets with no obstacle. After the
agreeable accounts from Aix-la-Chapelle, Baden
can hare no reason to fear ant• thing from it. The
!mange of the Austrian and Wirtembrrg troops will
be lei.% burdensome, a• they cross the country in its
narrowest dimensions. Our soldiers who have been
Called iu are still with the regiments, and are con-
stain ly exercised.

lieb:dr% the intimate understanding with Wirtem-
berg, a closer connexion with Hesse will he the re-
sult of the late clouds in o►tr political horizon. Ac-
cording to our Constitution, the choice of the De-
punt.' must soon take plies. : the particular Ordi-
nance on the subject is daily expected. A gor►d
►pint is actiie among us, but the help of the States
is absolutely tiecriisaiy to support it. In our Ad-
ministration there is a great deal to be amended►
and much to be wholly reformed.

reside at Marlburongli-house, which is now prepar-
ing for his Royal Highness's reception. Indepen-
dently of the removal of the screen of column., in
flout of die Palace, domestic offices will be errcted,
and some changes take place in the disposition of
the ornaments and furniture iii the State apartments,
which have undergone no change for nearly seven
yews.
The report is again revived, that St. James's Pa-
lace will shortly be removed, to make way for a new
edifice of brick and stone; the order to be Grecian,
and the grand entrance opposite St. James's-street.
Every person now residing therein has received an
official intimation to quit possession; and, as the
order was issued sic months ago, they way be called
to quit at a week's notice.
The arrangements relative to Godolphin-house,
the sesidence of the Commander-in-Chief, are not
yet determined upon; but it is conjectured that
eamethiay therein will he speedily done.
Something will soon be dour to relieve the Quern's

That the Election of 31embcrs of Parliament ought In be
conducted according to the tine principles of old English

That the Electors of this Borough having pledged them-

ther Electors, and every independent Englishman, will, by
their Subscription, enable them to return Sir Robert Wilson

The Committee have now nn doubt of their exertions be-
ing crowned with success—and they appeal, therefore, with
the mere confidence to their Fellow-Countrymen, to assist
them in the assertion of their Independence, and of return-
ing to Parliament the enlightened advocate of freedom and

CUTLERY BILL

On the motion fur the third reading of the Cut-
lery Bill,
Mr. %WHARTON rose, and lamented that these
were exceptioiss in the Bill, with respect to one
branch or department of the cutlery trade, which
necessarily effected in the most injurious way the
interests of a great part of the manufacturers a
articles of cutlery. It was necessary fur the Illowe
to know there were two descriptions of steel from
which articles of cutlery were manufactured. The
one description produced from truss, wrought by
extreme labour into a solidity and consistency ca-
pable of sustaining any polish—the other, pro-
duced by fusion only, and possessing neatly the
same properties. Upon the latter, the manufac-
turer was not entitled to affix that mask or stamp
which by law entitled it to certain advantages, in
the same incliner as the hall mark upon plate.
The articles therefore manufactured with nearly
equal labour, out of the latter description of
steel. were thus deprived of the protection given
to the former, the effect of winch prefeieuce
could not fail to be materially felt by the maim-
facturers of cast steel. It was wills a view to equal-
lise both branches of the manufacture, as far us re-
spected that species of protection to *lnch lie, for
vise, considered they were both equally entitled.
that he had oddrewsed the House in this late stage
of the Hill. Ile Ives aware he could not propose ally
alteration in the Bill stow, and should reserve his
amendments until the Bill had beets read the third
time.

Thi Corrier of yesterday evening, in its Com-
ments tipon the Treasury Accounts of the lust
qtrarter, does not seem quite satitfied with the
actual results, favourable as they really are to
the Government; but in its attempts to magnify
their importance, expresses itself iu a manner
calculated to deceive the public. It ' Deers
that the receipts of the revenue for the quarter
amount to 10,449,e201. " The charges," says
The Coterie", " are 8,830,000/. the surplus is,
cousequeutly, 1,419,4101." This mode of stating
the matter * we conceive, very disingenuous, and
must muse malty person. to imagioe that there re-
mains a surplus of nearly a million and a half of
revenue, after defsaying all the expenses of the State
for the quarter, to be directed towards the liquidu-
firm of the public debt ; but the reality of the case
is, that the expenses of the quarter exceed the in-
come by the sum of 2:1583,936/. Ss. 3d. to be pro-
vided by Exchequer Bills. The sum of 10,249.9.20/.
is the total amount received at the Treasury daring
the last quarter, from the permanent and mutual
Taxes; while the charge of 8,830,0001. as we stated
yesterday, refers solely to the Consolidated Fond.
Instead, therefore, of there being a balance of
1.419,940!. over and above all the expenses of the
quarter, there is only • surplus to that amount,
after pitying the charges on the Consolidated Fund,
disposable in aid of other means to be hereafter
devised for meeting the estertnous etPendrlate of
our establistlnneots fur the present year.

DR(TR-LINE tllEirltif.

The lively cnitteity, The 84 Rely, was fife•
formed here last night. The only novelty in the
cast of characters was the personation of Patch,

woman Could 1161 lit'llVe found a more faithful repre-
sentative. In thus Peelle in which she loses the
letter, and also in that where she recovers it, she
was peculiarly happy. Her acting throughout was
full of life, spirit, and animation-4ot, true to
notate, it was in no instance over•chaNed. Mrs.
A,.801''3 reception was that of a distinguished fa.
vourite—e place to which her talents have justly
raised her in public estimation. The other cha-
racters were adequately sustained. The play, in-
deed, could not have been better performed.

THEATRICAL CONDEMNATION.

In every other species of commodity hut that of
the drama, if the goods be nut timid marketable,
the owner or inanafacturer is alloWed to discover it
himself, by soch articles not being vendible, and
they are left upon his hands as a punishment, but
no farther loss of property is incurred by him.; he
is never abused for his folly, or treated as it he had
committed a criminal action. It is to he lamented
that a theatrical audience will not consider dramatic
property in the same Manner, and reflect that it is
no trifling matter to the interest of a mattiger to
lose two thousand pounds perhaps. in the getting
up of a uew piece, without treating bun as a male-
factor for his endeavours to entertain. With a po-
lished indience. like that of Landon, these:Como-
derctions should have their due weight.
