sures to be adopted for the administration of the Principalities
of Gotha and Altenburgh, left us again on the 2d, haying already
completed their operations.

SWITZERLAND, MARCH 11.

The little Council of Zurich, in its Sitting of the Bth of this
month, decided on the important measure of the formation of a
new road to Lucerne, instead of that by the Albis, which is as
fatiguing asdangerous in winter. The plan for the new road, which
has been approved, presents hardly any aclivity, and is such that
the facilities afforded by the nature of the soil will amply com-
pensate the inconvenience of its being a little longer.
TRIESTE, Manx)" 5.

Trieste and the whole valley continue to enjoy the finest
weather ; the crops are in the finest condition, and promise for
the next harvest a great quantity, but not in value, for corn,
especially wheat, daily falls in price, and the stock is so great
that there is no demand except for daily consumption. Our city
has procured a supply of 64,000 stari from Italy, which is already
in the magazine. Wine is equally low in price, but the price of
silk has risen very much within these few weeks. It is unfortunate
that most of the cultivators were obliged, by the low prices of
their wines, to part with their silk at a time when it was ex-
tremely depreciated in value. The late rise, however, gives
them great hopes for the next season.

SWITZERLAND, MARCH 9.
Towards the end of February, the new-fallen snow lay three
feet deep in the streets of Coirl, and in the upper valleys of the
Grisons it was in immense quantities : houses were crushed
beneath the enormous weight of the masses that covered
them. It was with great difficulty that the principal
roads were kept open, but the Sittings of the Court of Appeal
were interrupted for fuur days. On the first and second Ava-
lanches began to fall. In Brittogau two men were buried, but
recovered. On the second fourteen men clearing a road near
the village of Vallendas, were surprised by an Avalanche; it
broke the thigh of one, and carried five others into the abyss
below, whence they were dug up dead the same day.—(Fratte,-
fora Papers, Marchl7.)

TURIN, MArtcx 12.
It has been ordered by a Sovereign resolution of his Majesty
the Emperor of Austria, that the loan made by the merchants
of Venice of 1805 shall be paid. The claims arising from this
loan shall be liquidated and paid, without any distinction between
Austrian subjects and foreigners.
An article from Naples of the 28th February corrects a state-
ment of the Minister, of 7th of the same month, which says,
" The Vesuvius, a new ship of the line, was launched at
Naples the 9th January, and the Government pays great atten-
tion to strenghen its marine, which the frequent depredations of
the Barbary pirates obliges it to do."
The Vesuvius, of 84 guns, was launched 2d December at
Castloamere, and there has not been the slightest difference
with the Barbary States since the conclusion of the Treaties in
1818, so that there is no reason to increase the Navy on their
account. His Majesty's Consuls reside at Tunis and Tripoli,
and are well respected.—( Ptedmontese Gazette, March 12.)

A Flanders Mail has also arrived. The fol
owing are its principal contents :

AUGSBURG, MARCH 17.

Letters from Trieste say, that by the latest accounts from the
Archipelago nothing remarkable has occurred there. The sea
is entirely open, for no armed vessels, Greek, Turkish, or Egyp-
tian, are to be seen. The principal squadron of the Greeks is at
Hydra, in which port great preparations arc making for the next
campaign. They are building new ships of war as well as fire-
ships. The considerable remittances of money, and the con-
signment of artillery and ammunition, which have been receiv-
ed from England and Malta, contribute to accelerate these pre-
cautions.
There is a report in circulation that the Porte, desiring to
keep the Egyptian troops in its armies, has promised the
Pacha of Egypt to acknowledge him as Sovereign of the Pelo-
ponnesus, as soon as that province shall have been conquered.
But it is much doubted whether the Pacha will ever determine
to leave the country which he now governs, the remoteness of
which renders him in a manner independent of the authority of

the Sultan.
Accounts from the frontiers of Servia say,that the representa-
tives of the Pacha of Belgrade against the finnan of the Sultan,
-relative to the augmentation of the tribute imposed upon the
Servians, have been very ill received at Constantinople. A
Tartar, who has arrived at Belgrade, has brought formal or-
ders to put the firman of the Sultan into immediate execution.
BRUSSELS, MARCH 2:2..

We learn that his Majesty has entirely recovered from the
indisposition which had given occasion to certain French Jour-
nals to spread alarming reports. It is believed that his Majesty
will very shortly give public audience.
Every day makes known fresh gifts for the sufferers by the
inundations. The Northern and Southern provinces have been
equally eager to shew their zeal and beneficence on this great
occasion.—lt is probable that according to the general wish the
official list of the public subscriptions and private donations will
be printed.
An observatory Is going to be erected here, and it will be
placed, as we hear, on the highest spot between the Namur
and Hal gates.

FRANKFORT, MARCH 16.
The late Director of the Police at Cassel, M. Manger, is still
in solitary confinement in the fortress of Spangenburg, as well
as M. Wiedemuth, Ex-Secretary-General to M. Urbain, an
Officer of Police, and SONIC other persons. The Com-
mittee appointed to examine into the charges proceeds
very slowly, because it has to collect information from
so many different quarters. These Commissioners lately passed
some weeks at Spangenburg, whence it has returned to Cassel.
Every thing relative to this strange affair is conducted with
profound secresy.—(Brussels Papers, March 23.)

The Vansittart Indiaman, DALRYMPLE, from
London to Bombay and China, was spoken with on the 3d of
February in lat. 2. N. long. 24. W., hating the staff of his
Majesty's 98th foot on board, proceeding to the Cape of Good
Hope, having left the Downs the Bth of January, and passes',`
Madena on the 21st; they had fine weather.

INDIA..-It appears by recent letters from
India, that Lord AMHEaST is in very bad health—
That Sir THOMAS MUNRO does not intend to
proceed to Europe, in consequence of the present
state of affairs, and that RUNJEET SINGH has
shewn a very hostile disposition towards the
Company.

WESTAIINSTER MEETING.-'-A Meeting of the
inhabitants of Westminster took place this day
in Covent Garden, for the purpose of proposing
a petition to Parliament for the repeal of the
Assessed Taxes ; but as the speakers were not
likely to be brief in their harangues, we were
obliged to go to press without any satisfactory
roport of the probable result of their proceedings.

Parliament will adjourn over the Easter lloli-
days, till the 12th of April.
On Monday evening, Mr. LATCHFIELD, the
King's Messenger, arrived in town with dis-
patches fiom our Ambassador at St. Petersburgh.

Mine, belonging to the Anglo-Mexican Mining
Company. A similar Saloon was discovered
about twelve years ago in the same mine.
There was an arrival of ship-letters yesterday
from Jamaica. They were brought from a port
