We have received a. private letter from Vienna,
dated one day later than the communications
-• from that capital contained in the Foreign Jour-
'
nals, which arrived this day. It holds out
hopes of the preservation of peace, founded
on the disposition • recently evinced by the
Porte to withdraw the Ottoman troops from
the Principalities, but the other points of diffe-
rence are in our opinion so difficult of adjust.
merit that we fear these hopes will not be realized,
unless indeed the Emperor Alexander should re-
nounce his demands against the Porte, which we
think very improbable. The following is an
Extract from the Letter of our highly respectable
and intelligent Correspondent :
u VIENNA, APRIL 26.—The 4 Estafettes' of the several Ca-
binets are particularly active; and the general opinion seems to
be that war is inevitable. Still, however, among the best in-
formed of the Diplomates, the case is considered as by no
means so desperate, and hopes are entertained that peace
may yet be preserved. They ground this opinion upon inform-
ation which appears to have reached them that the Porte has
actually evinced a disposition to withdraw the Turkish troops
from the principalities, in which case, the mediating powers
hope they may be able to adjust the rest. of the differ-'
ences. The chief obstacle seems to be the unbending
pride and arrogance of the 'Fulls, which will lead them to
grant, in the most ungracious manner, whatever concession
they may be prevailed upon to accede to ; and it remains
to be seen whether the Emperor Alexander, after his exten-
sive military preparations, will have both power and magna-
nimity enough to disregard les impertinences of the Divan.
Extracts will be found in a preceding column,
from the Paris Papers of Wednesday, which are
of a warlike character.

Ma. CANNING'S MOTION.---The Protestant
world must feel increased alarm at the progressof
this motion. The result of the first debate on
the subject, as our Readers too well know, was a
majority of five in its favour. That majority was
last night increased to the number of t welve.—
We are astonished .at, the perseverance of this
gentleman on a subject of the utmost impor-
tance to the very existence of the British
Constitution, but the nation will feel consola-
tion in the hope that a majority of the people,
at large will be incalculably more numerousagainst
this terrific motion, and that our unrivalled Esta-
blishment in CHURCH and STATE will stand its
ground, in spite of oratorical parade, and modern
innovation.

Two o'Clock.—We understand that several
hundred thousand pounds were added this morn-
ing to the Subscription by the South Sea Com-
pany, for the proposed PENsros LOAN.

Yesterday a Meeting of the Proprietors of
South Sea Stock was held at the Company's
House in Threadneedle-street. Mr. BOSANQUET,
the Chairman, stated to the Meeting the nature
of the Contract proposed by Government for the
conversion of the Half-pay Pensions, Szc. with
the particulars of which our Headers are ac-
quainted. lie said that the scheme in question,
as it would affect the South Sea Company, if the
Meeting should be of opinion that the Contract
was desirable, had been variously understood.
As originally explained, it contained an alterna-
tive respecting the subscriptions of their whole
capital ; according to the plan now proposed,"
however, those holders who should subscribe
their names in a book, or who should by
writing signify their consent, were alone
to be concerned in the undertaking,—the
rights and interests of all others remaining
unaffected and secure. An immediate deposit
was required by Government from the. Con-
tractors, of 5,000,0001., and if not made in

money or Exchequer Bills, Government would
be satisfied with the transfer of so much of the
Company's Stock at 32 percent. Whether the
whole of their present capital stock were sub-
scribed or not, an addition of new stock would
be necessary ; and this was proposed to bear
interest at 4. per cent., while the old stock
new bore an interest of 34- per cent. The
additional per cent. would arise out of a
sum 9f 21,0001. to be allowed by Government
for, management, &c.—The Chairman also ex-
plained some minor points; and after a conver-
sation which evinced a favourable disposition to
the scheme, it was agreed that Books should be
opened, and that a General Court of Proprietors
should be. held on Monday. Books were imme-
diately opened ; and we understand a few consi-
derable sums were subscribed.—The probability
of the undertaking being entered into by the
South Sea Company, is the general subject of
conversation in the City,--up to last night, we
are informed the subscriptions did not exceed
100,0001. If the measure be further sanctioned
on Monday, however, there is little doubt of the
contract being completed.

TO CORRESPONDENTS.
The Author of the Letter signed W. W. in our Paper thi
•• Day, says, in a private Note, that though he has reasons for
concealing his name, that " if any Member of the Govern-
ment, hostile to Catholic Emancipation, should deem it use-
ful to have a conversation with ine, I would attend bins in
private."
