THANKSGIVING.—This is the day recommended by the
Governor of the State as one to be observed for thanksgiv-
ing and prayer. Intending to join in the observance of the

the Gazette.

We have received by express the Gazette de

Papers of Sunday:—

(From the Jeurnal des Debats.)
BERLIN, DEC. 24.—1 t is spoken of here with some
degree of certainty, that an interview has taken place at
Thorn, between two Monarchs united by blood.
We have received here a proclamation of the E►nperor
Nicholas, which announces the most energetic measures
for putting down the insurrection of the Poles.
The Jewish population of Poland have already named a
deputation to demand of the Diet that they be placed on
an equal footing as regards civil rights. The Minister of
Science, of Instruction, and of Public Health, has di-
rected four physicians to proceed to Moscow to study the
cholera morbus in all its stage*. Dr. Daune has already
set out for St. Petersburgh; he will be followed by
Doctors Quineke and Barchemtsch. The Chief of the
Physicians, Ahert de Gumbennen, will put himself at the
head of this deputation.
WARSAW, Dec. 21.—The Chambers have resolved
upon the following important decree :
Viewing the extraordinary situation in which we found
the country, in consequence of the glorious revolution of
2Pth November last—

Seeing the pressing necessity of giving to the supreme
authority all tke necessary power during a state of war—
Considering, lastly, that the character and the conduct
of the Dictator, Chlopieki, afford. a sufficient guarantee
to the national cause, we decree and do decree as follow.:
" 1. General Joseph Chlopieki is invested with the
most extended supreme authority, in the exercise of which
he sha'.l not be restrained by any responsibility ; lie is
lamed Dictator.
, 2. The authority of the Dictator shall cease when he
',lnset( shall resign it, or when a Deputation of the Diet
-Noose in his place, in the manner indicated in the
followiLt article, another Commander-in-Chief, who shall
iinniediattly take the command of the army. From this
moment the Dictator will find himself free from his en-
gagements.

3. The deputation mentioned in the preceding article
shall be composed of the actual President of the Senate, of
five Senators chosen by the Senate, of the Marshal of the
Chamber of Representatives, and of eight members of that
Chamber, one from each Palatinate of the kingdom. In
ease of the death or the absence of one of the Senators or
Representatives, the President of the Senate and the Mar-
shal of the Chamber of Representatives have the power to
replace them.
" 4. In case of the death of the Dictator, or the cessa-
eation of his authority, the Diet shall pursue its labours
When one-half of the Members shall be present.
" 5. The Dictator shall chose at his pleasure the Mem-
bers of Government.
"6. After the publication of the present Decree the

Diet shall be suspended, and shall net have power to meet
during the existence of the Dictatorship, except on the con-
vocation of the Dictator.
" 7. All existing authorities, commanders of the armed
forces, and all good Poles, are charged with the execution
of the present decreee.

MAnnin, DEC. 23.—General Morillo, restored to his
rank and honours, has returned to Spain. He has re-
ceived a secret order to repair to St. Sebastian, to take
the command of the army which will be successively
formed on the frontiers of France, destined, in appearance,
to repel the incursions of the Spanish refugees, but in
reality to uphold the efforts of the Holy Alliance, and to
support the pretensions of the fallen dynasty.
The intelligence of the revolution in Poland has created
the greatest alarm among our apostolical party. The
Gazette of yesterday devotes an article to the event.

The Deputies from the Provisional Govern-
ment of Belgium had an interview with Lord
PALMERSTON, this morning, at the Foreign
Office.

Lord MELBOURNE left town, this morning,
on a visit to the KING, at Brighton.

The Lisbon Gazettes, from the 20th to the
24th December, both inclusive, contain no Por-
tuguese news.

The Allgemeine ZeitUng gives some inte-
resting particulars, which however we receive not
without distrust, respecting the state of the
public. mind at St. Pctersburgh, when in-
telligence was received of the revolt at War-
saw. The people, it seems, sided with
the EMPEROR in his view of the case, and,
in concert with the soldiers, cried aloud for
vengeance on the traitors. Traitors indeed !
What business have the Poles to dare to think
for themselves, and make an effort to regain
their freedom? It is the heighth of treason even to
harbour such an idea. So thinks the EMPEROR,
so it would appear, think his subjects ; we hope,
however, that General CHLOPIEKI will do his
best to bring both parties to their senses.
The Allgemeine Zeitung states further that
so soon as the Russian army is completed to
one hundred and sixty thousand men, the Emperor
will put himself at their head, and if they do
not instantly submit, attack the " traitors"
with his whole force. Count DrEniTscH has
at present the chief command ; a portion of
whose army, cannot, it is reported, be far from
the Polish frontiers
PETERSBURGII, DEC. 10.-Every body here is con-
founded at the revolution in Warsaw, the first news of
which we received on the Bth. Every body fears that we
will have to lament the loss of some dear relation, and the
national spirit of the Russians manifests itself on this occa-
sion in a very honourable manner. At the review, which
to..k place the day before yesterday, the Emperor accom-
panied by his son rode through the ranks of all the regi-
ments, and related the terrible events in Warsaw to the
soldiers, who cried aloud for vengeance, and were con-
firmed by the spectators in their just indignation. 44 Your
wish shall be fulfilled," answered the Emperor; " I will
myself lead you against the rebel.."—A universal hurrah
arose from the ranks of the warriors, and " Down with
the Poles ! down with the traitors !" was the universal
cry. Since this remarkable scene, which immortalizes the
Emperor in the eyes of the Russians, all ranks vie with
each other is the manifestation of their patriotic senti-
ments. Young men of the first families enlist in the
army as common soldiers ; voluntary contributions to
lessen the expences of the war are continually offered, but
by the express command of the Emperor not accepted.
War is declared against the Poles, and if they do not hasten
to submit, they will probably be exposed to severe chas-
tisement, and bitterly repent having contemned the mag-
nanimous treatment which they have experienced from
Russia, and having rashly plunged their country into ruin.
Till the Emperor goes to the army, Count Diebitach
will have the chief command. A part of our army can-
not be far from the Polish frontiers, and as soon as a force
of 160,000 men is assembled the operations will begin.
The conduct of the Grand Duke Constantine at War-

saw is blamed by some persons here, perhaps for want of
accurate knowledge of the state of affairs. With resolu-
tion they say the Grand Duke might have awed the revo-
lutionists and stifled the rebellion in its birth, and they
refer to the conduct of the Emperor on his acces-
sion to the throne. It is said that the Poles will

send deputies to this city to justify themselves
and to negociate : they, however, will not be heard,
hut will be sent back to Warsaw to announce to
tkieir countrymen the displeasure of the Emperor, and to
summon them to unconditional submission. Ayroclama-

tion to the Poles is shortly to be issued, in which pardon
will be promised to those who repent and submit; but
those who persevere in the revolt will be threatened with

the severest punishment.
FRONTIERS OF POLAND, DEC. 3.—From the official
declarations it seems certain that as soon as the Russian
army is completed to 160,000 men, the Emperor will put
himself at its head, and will attack the Poles with
his whole force, if they do not voluntarily sub-
mit. The Emperor appears to have declared po-
sitively that he will never negotiate with rebels.--
It cannot remain long uncertain how this melancholy
drama will end—whether by a war of extermination, or
by the grant of the wishes and the fulfilment of the hopes
which, according to the notion of the Poles, are founded
on former promises, in which case only those would be
treated as rebels who were the authors of the first mur-
derous attack, and the insurrection in 'Warsaw.
CRACOW, DEC. 18.—We learn that the first news of
the events at Warsaw was received with great indignation
by the Emperor ; but we believe that when his 111ajesty
is better inrormed of the events in Warsaw, and their causes,
and conferred with the Grand Duke Constantine, his opinion
will be more favourable. It is not to be denied that the
Emperor's care bad done much for Poland, and was well
calculated to make it happy and prosperous. But there
were great defects in the Administration which were op-
pressive to the country, and which could hardly be ex-
pected to be remedied, notwithstanding the kind inclina-
tions of the Emperor, whose residence is so remote, and
whose care is divided among the whole of his vast empire.
These grievances, the knowledge of which was kept from
the Sovereign by some influential persons, the excessive
rigour with which every complaint was rejected, had
naturally a more dangerous effect on the people, and at
the slightest impulse led to an excitement of which there
are so many examples in these times of effervescence. The
events in Warsaw, much as they deserve to be blamed and
punished, may however be received more favourably when
they are net judged of by the painful feelings excited by
the recollections of the victims of blind popular rage. 'The
sending of deputies to Petersbu►gh was highly necessary,
as on the result of their mission depends the future fate of
the Poles, who still promise fidelity to their Sovereign.
A Russian staff officer is sent to Warsaw to inform him-
self on the spot of the state of things, and to announce the
will of the Emperor to the Provisional Government. We
sincerely hope that this mission may be the harbinger of
paternal clemency, and that no revolutionary measures be
taken till he returns to the Imperial Court.

MAXWELL.—The commercial tenants of the
city, and above all, the gentlemen of the Siock Exchange,
are on the qui vive since the appearance of this work,
with regard to the " special original" whom the author
has borrowed from their ranks. The personage alluded
to, whose alter ipse is thus anxiously sought, is the
Novelist's Mr. AzrEaToN, the Stuck Broker. The mys•
tery may perhaps shortly meet with its solution, for, when
the Portrait is undergoing so close a scrutiny, it becomes
almost impossible that the original, who has been the sitter
for it, should escape recognition. At all events, it is
reported that the civic gentlemen are already, after their
own peculiar fashion, betting hats as to the result !

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK
Quebec Papers to the Ist of December, and Montreal
to:the 3d of December, have been received at the North
and South American Coffee-house.
The Legislature of Upper Canada has been further
prorogued to the 17th of December. The Legislature of
New Brunswick has been summoned for the despatch of
business, on the 7th of February. The covering of snow
continues on the ground, but the weather is mild.
(From the Montreal Papers.)
It is rumoured that the Provincial Parliament will be
called together on the 24th of January.
The accounts from the American Papers from Mexico
are not of a favourable nature.
TAMPICO, Nov. 2.--The post front Mexico brought no
papers. Letters state that Guerrero is within 15 leagues
of Mexico, and the people are tired with the Administra-
tion of Vice-President Bustamente.
From Mexico they write that the Legislature of that
State has offered to the Government all its troops and re-
sources, and likewise that of Puebla and Vera Cruz, in
consequence of the defeat of the troops of General Arraign,
and that the Government are fitting out a new army to
replace them, at the head of which, it was reported,
General Teran would march to the south. The Ilegistro
Official, a Government Paper, is written in such firm-
ness of tone as to leave no apprehensions for the stability
of the present Government. It also contains intelligence
that ten thousand men, who were collected in Mischoran,
were dispersed by Colonel Vargas, and besides obtained a
brilliant victory over Cossolas.
THE FUNDS.
At length the speech of the President of America has
come to hand; its immense length and copious details
almost tire its readers : it coincides with the French and
English Governments in recommending non-intervention
it also passes great encomiums on the present French Go-
vernment, and boasts of the prosperity of America.
At present tve do not hear of any express from Paris. it
still being a holiday there.
Consols, which left off yesterday at S 2 for the Ac-
count, opened at 8243--at present they are l'2B to 1.

The speech of Mr. O'Connell, at the dinner at Drog-

have made some impression en the Funds. Consols, which
were ia the early part of the day at 82i- for the Account,

place, and Consols are at present 82i A good deal of
heavy Stock has come to market. It is also rumoured
that the Scotch hanks have been selling, which has de-
pressed the market.
The private letters from Paris still express hopes that
the present Government will fully maintain its power;
they also add, that the state of Paris is daily improving.

cember. We do not hear that it brings any political news
of consequence.
