LONDON,
TUESDAY EVENING, APRIL 19, 1831.

Lord J. RussELL brought forward, last night, his
proposed alterations in the Reform Bill. These
are manifest improvements, enlarging without in the
slightest degree interfering with the spirit ;Ind prin
ciples of the measure. They are to the following
effect :—From schedule A. his Lordship pro-
poses to withdraw the boroughs of Ahlborough,
Buckingham, Malmesbury, Okehampton, and Rei-
gate, and place them in schedule 8., thereby giving
them one Member instead of being disfranchised. The
boroughs of Leominster, Morpeth, Northallerton,
Tamworth, Truro, Westbury, and Wycombe, are to
be withdrawn from their present position in schedule
8., and to retain their present number of Members.
The towns of Bury, Halifax, Oldham, Rochdale,
Stoke-upon-Trent, Salford, Wakefield, and Whitby,
are to be placed in schedule D., and to have one
Member ; and the counties of Belks, Bucks, Cam-
bridge, Doi set, Glamorgan, Hereford, Hertford, and
Oxon, are each to have an additional Member, undi-
vided. The Hon.and Gallant Member for Liverpool
proposed an amendment to these alterations, whose
evident object was to break in upon the principle' of
the Bill, to pervert its spirit ; in fact to defeat

it in lota. The Honourable Member for Ne►vark
seconded this factious amendment in a speech in
which he compared the representative system to
We: minster Abbey, and in which also he inferred
the agitated state of the country from the fact of its
being so exceedingly tranquil. At a late hour the
debate was adjourned over to this day. We must not
omit tm mention, that previous to tt►e discussion
the Honourable Member for Preston made himself
conspicuous as usual by some absurd trash which he
drivelled forth respecting, what he called, a con-
spiracy of the Papers in the cause of Reform. Lord
J.RussELL turned this remark to very happy account.
We cannot close our necessa►ily brief observations
without strenuously exhorting Ministers and their
friends to keep constantly at their posts, as we under-
stand that the Anti-Reformers, when they see the
Ministerial benches at all thin,are resolved on taking
that opportunity to divide.

We have received this morning the Allgen:eine
Zeitung of the 12th of April, from which we give
the following extracts :
Rests:, MARCH 31.—Every thing is now returning to
its for Mer state. The insurgerts, sensible of their weak-
ness, have sought a last resource through their prisoner
Cardinal Benvenuti, and in appearance found it. The
Cardinal's secretary arrived here the day before yesterday
from Ancona, and brought word that Benvenuti had agreed
to a convention, in 16 articles, with the chiefs of the revo-
lution, the first of whom is Armanda. The insurgents re-
sign their power to the Cardinal as the Pope's representa-
tive, and every thing is to be placed on the same footing as
on Ith February. Every one remains in his office, and
keeps his pension just as if nothing at all happened. These
conditions were not listened to here. The Pope, who con-
sulted the Foreign Ambassadors, had the satisfaction to find
that all of them, without exception, were of opinion that
these conditions were wholly inadmissible. Cardinal Ben-
venuti besides, being a pri>oner, could have no authority
to conclude any convention what,ver. Cardinal Oppi-
zario, Archbishop of Bologna, had been appointed Legate
a latere in his room. _

The whole transaction is in itself null and void. The
generous and truly noble sentiment. of the Pope will now
appear in their true light. Though he cannot leave rebels
in possession of their offices and pensions, a general am-
nesty will be proclaitneav excepting only the military chiefs
and those who deposed the Pope. It is not likely that
any means will be taken to keep the latter is the country.
But the exalted sentiments of Gregory XVI. are mani-
fested still more clearly in the assurances he has giren,
that it is his firm resolution thoroughly to improve the
situation of the countries subject to him. Notwithstand-
a strong opposition, it is said Deputies will be convoked
from the most considerable places, and concessions of the
highest importance will be made to them. This is the
true means to preserve the country from new revolutions.
VienstA, Aran. 4.—The Austrian Observer, at the
conclusion of an account of the operations of the corps in
the estates of the Church says—" The revolution in the
estates of the Church are thus ended. It was con-
fined to the individuals who considered it as a step
towards their attainment of the highest offices in
the State, but were unable to support by a single
energetic action the cause which they seemed
resolved to defend with pompous words Every where
execrated and pursued by those whom they had plunged
into misfortunes, the instigators of the rebellion were the
first to fly. Immediately after the re-establishment of tran-
quillity the Imperial troops will leave the Papal territory."
(From the Courier de Smyrne.)
CONSTANTINOPLE, Jase. 27.—This morning the Se-
raskier Paella delivered to the GreA Patriarch an Impe-
rial ukase order, by which the Sultan grants him a subsidy
of 500,000 piastres for the debts of the Greek coniniu-
nity and the Patriarchale. The Sultan sent besides
250,000 piastres to relieve the distress of the inhabitants
of Turkey, who have suffered much by the Greek revolu-
tion. The Sultan has also remembered the inhabitants
of the countries between the Balkan and the Danube, and
granted 1,000 polies to be distributed among them.—
Baron Rukmun, who has been Charge d'Affaires of Russia
since the departure of M. de Ribeaupierre, will leave us
as soon as M. Buttamoff arrives ; be is to go as resident

to Greece.
VIENNA, APRIL 7.—Four per Cent. Aletalliquee, '701;
Bank Shares, 953.

We have just received the last number of the
Edinburgh Review, which contains, among other
able articles, an admirable—and at the present crisis
an appropriate—one on the subject of Reform and
the Ministry, in which the LORD ADVOCATE'S
speech is referred to as its merits deserve.
