FIRE in BUNHILL-ROW.—Messrs. STAN-
BRIDGE, MARSHALL, WILLIAMS, and Co., beg
to return their most grateful thanks for the strenuous exertions
they received from their Friends during the FIRE, which took
place at their Manufactory last night, which destroyed some part
of the machinery and buildings. They, however, beg to inform
the public that they must not diminish their orders for the Patent
Roofing, Sheathing for Ships, Patent Artificial Skins, and other
articles manufactured by them, as extensive machinery is in pro-
gress, and will be completed in three weeks, on a scale fully equal
to meet the great demand for their various articles.

HAMBURG, SEPT. 28, 1836.
OUR Friends, and all those who may have to write
to us, are requested to be particular in directing,
HEINE BROTHERS, in HAMBURGH,

and to observe, that a letter with one inclosure doubles the Postage
only, but several inclosures would by far increase the same. Thus
101., 201., or 301., for instance, if remitted in One Bank of Eng-
land Note would only cause double Postage, but 101. remitted in
two notes, would be liable to a much higher charge. It is there-
fore most advisable, for any Person having to remit Money to Ham-
burgh, to forward the amount in One Note; or having to receive
Money from Hamburgh, to receive the same in One Note, when-
ever possible. Of course remittances from Hamburgh to England,
surpassing the usual amount of One Bank of England Note, may
rather be made in Bills of Exchange, on London.
To save expenses that may as well be avoided, we request our
Correspondents not to overlook these particulars.
HEINE BROTHERS.

LONDON,
THURSDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 27, 1836,

The French Papers of Tuesday contain no news of
any political importance. The elevation of the Luxor
Obelisk was effected without any accident on Tuesday,
in the presence of the KING, and the principal members
of the Royal family. His MAJESTY was tolerable
well received by his loving subjects, whom, however,
he took care to keep at a respectful distance from his
sacred person. There was no regicidal pistol-practice
on this occasion.

The Moniteur contains two Royal Ordinances. The
one referring to a new arrangement in the judicial sys-
tcm established in the French colonies of Africa ; tl►e
other fixing the amount of salaries to be received by
the Prefects of the different departments throughout
France.

• We find in these Journals no intelligence of any
importance from Switzerland or Spain. The following

PARIS, OCT. 2.5.—Tw0 honourable merchants of the
capital, who have extensive commercial and banking tran-
sactions with Switzerland, after a conference at the Hotel
of the Minister for Foreign Affairs, have just received in-
structions to proceed to Berne. It is presumed, from the
mercantile character of these two persons, that more serious
difficulties than were anticipated have arisen in the con:-
mission, and that it is intended to make an appeal to na-
tional interests, in order to modify the question of national
honour and independence, which the patriotism of certain
members desires to make the most prominent.
The Charges d'Affaires of Holland and Switzerland have
had fresh conferences with M. Mole, and it was after these
visits that the two French merchants received their instruc-
tions and their passports. It seems that each Minister
thinks to have an agent in Switzerland. All transact busi-
ness separately : each desires to be sufficiently informed, to
follow up discussion with his Majesty.
The Papin steam-boat arrived on the 16th at Algiers
with Lieut.-General Davremont and M. de Rancti, Aid-
de-camp to Marshal Clausel.
Lieut.-General Davremont," says the Semaphore,
" had immediately a conference with Marshal Clausel, who
does not seem in the least disposed to leave the colony.
Thus all the reports respecting the mission of M. de Rance
fall to the ground. The importance of it seems to have
been exaggerated by everybody, and by the Ministerial
journals themselves. The preparations for the expedition
to Constantina are prosecuted with great vigour."
We feel pleasure in giving the news. We should have
regretted to see Marshal Clausel leave the post which he
fills to the great satisfaction of the real friends of Coloniza-
tion in Africa, whatever confidence may be placed on the
successor who was designated."—Journal du Commerce;

Madrid journals to the 18th inst. have been re-
ceived. They are barren of all interesting intelligence.
Not a word do they add to what has already appeared
in the London journals on the subject of the war, or
the exploits of the armies. The following article, from
the Espagnol of the 17th, on the Regency question,
is all that we find worth extracting from their co-

lumns :
" The Cortes are about to open. Convoked at so cri-
tical a moment, and composed of Deputies whose opinions
