Air. Sergeant PELL, as Chairman of the Finance Coot •
mittee for the county of Middle-ex, begged to st,,te that
the report he was about to subuilt for the uiloption ,-f th,t

mation, but w.is founihd on a vigilant inquiry into tl:‘s
abuses it professed to reform. In the first plao,

FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

FRENCH PAPERS.
(From the Message,' des Chambres of Feb. 23.)
" A general subject of convers aloft is a new regiment
co. Hussar.; which is to b shortly formed, by the Name of
t colonrei Hussars ;' the formation of this regi-
ment to be by a natiottal subscription. It is a happy
idea, anti we cemtratulate tie patriots with whom it ori-
ginated. The plan has been proerred by its authors to
his Royal Highness the Duke of Orleans, who, after hav-
ing minutely examined it, was pleased to expre,s to those
gent!emcn the vieat interest be felt in their scheme. The
principal basis obta 11,1 tile approbation of his Royal
Highness ; awl the uniform, which is, perhaps, the hand-
somest in the whole at my, appeared to him to meth the
approbation of those who ate ule most difficult to be pleased
in such matters.

" His Royal Highness has sent the, ph in to the Aliai,-
ster of War, and we have this moment le trued that Ge—
neral Preval is ordered to repait upon it.
• " It is said al it the regim, nt or Tri-coloured Hussars is
to consist of 1,410 men, equipped and paid by a subscrii'—
i n, and to be presetrud to the whole nation. in the person
of its King.

" The formatLai of this regiment would be a good ON
porturity to ree.il to active service many officers of the
uld army, who have hitneito remained without employ..
ment, notwithst,ntling the good intentions of Marshal
Soult.

" BOLOGNA, FEB. U.—The Pro-legate has hen
escorted to the frontiers of Rome, his native place. Some
public functionaries, who were obnoxious, hive been re—
moved, aad their places filled by others who enjoy the
general etite"•nt.

" There is to be a couvwation for the election of 'a
constituent asseinb'y; it appe,rs that the republican form
will be adoi-ted, and that the country will be divided into
confederate states. The five legations will form one of
the,e state,, the Mar Ales, with the Duchy of Urbino,
another, the Duchy of Modena a
.third, .and so on in pro-
portion as they become flee.

" Ti,e Dul:c of Modena took with him thirty-seven
carriages, eontaning his treasure and all his valuables.
Ferrara is also free, though the fin-tress is held by an Aug.
trian garrison, which has remained a mere spectator of the
events that have passed, without taking any part in them.
It is inipos,ittle to fer► en idea of the enthusiasm thiit
prevails here; the streets and high roads are as safe at
night as in the day time. Since the revolution there has
been neither robin ry nor act of aagre•sion,
" Gifts of horses, money, arms, &c. are made to the
Government.

" Our National Guard is organizing, and the four le-
gions will be able in a few days to send 20,000 men to the
frontiers."

EXPRESS FROM PARIS:

(From the Times Correspondent.)

PA R. 13, WEDNESDAY EVENING.—The apparent move-
ments of the French Government are at this moment sin-
gular. Alter hesitating for nearly five weeks upon the
policy of dissolving the Chamber of Deputies, a street
row, got up, as the Ministers say, by a few partiz:ins of
a weak and hopeless party, renewed threats of some
noisy chhaters in the Senate, and vague rumours of ge-
neral discontent, at once change the pre-intended policy of
the.Governinent, and at a single sitting of the council it
was unanimously resolved to command the dissolution
without delay. The electoral law is now• hrfo,e the
Chamber, where, after plenty of intermediate wrangling
upon the Belgic and Polish questions, it will, no doubt,
be adopted. The necessay forms of diseus,ion, will,
however, occupy at least three weeks from the present
time,

An extraordinary courier arrived here last night from
the Duke de Montemart, at St. Petersburch Ile was
accompanied by Al. Valkersahm, the Secretary of tl
Russian Legation at Berlin, who was likewise the b.ar,r
of some explanations from the Prussian Court ; and I may
at once tell you, as the secret c_anibt be withheld long here,
that his mission is a failure. Be went on the part of the
King of the French, to avert, if possible, the appeal to
arms in Poland. The answer of the Emperor of Russia
is decisive; unqualified submission he has resolved to tie
an indispensable preliminary to the. redress of Polish
wrongs; and the Poles declare they will perish trek ethe y
accede to conditions which they deem so degrading. Ai-
cordingsro the news brought by this courier, whit tiro-
yelled with great speed, there had not, as he passed, been
any battle, nor were the armies in that juxta-po.ition
which would warrant a belief in the rumours of fighting.
We have heard for the last day or two the roads, or rather
the rugged paths, made by wattels rudely spread upon the
snow, were scarcely passable, and the advance of artillery
and forage must necessarily he a work of some time and
labour : that a battle is at hand, however, there is no
douht, and in every quarter the enthusiasm of the Poles
was at its height. If a good cause, and the devotion of a
long oppressed people, can repel the aggression of an able
General and a well disciplined army, the Poles will con-
quer, and bear with them in their triumph the applause
of every well-regulated mind,

• lam informed that, according to the news brought to
the French Government by the Russian extraordinary courier,
that Russia has not yet so entirely entered into the policy
of the Court al London as the document; issuing from the
Five Powere now in negociation would imply. For in-
stc.eoe, it is stated that the signatures of Lieven and Ma-
! tuscewitz to the London protocols, or, at least, to the
1 atest and strongest of them, were merely provisional, or, as
the diplomatic term is, ad referendem, and not as by any
means pre-engaging Russia to adopt or support the prin
cples thereby involved. If there be any truth in this state-
ment,some eciaireissement ought to be promptly vquired
I have read this day a number of letters which reached
Paris by the post of this morning from various parts of
Italy, and of the dates of the Nth, 13th, and 14th inst..
From a comparison of their contents, and an allowance for
the principle and temper of the writers, I should be in-
clined to think that the recounts of the wide diffusion of
the insurrectionary spirit in Italy have been very much
exaggerated, in some of the small towns the patriots
have certainly succeeded, and acted with moderation,—
rilu, Duke of Modena has certainly sprung this spirit of
resistance, by the oppressic,o, the folly, end imbecility of
his Government ; bill the terror of Austria still operates
to to deter the inho,;itants generally from engaging in the
subversion cilt the legitimate authorities, and a distivet
deeleretlon appears to have been notified in the Autism-.
Italian provinces, that any stir in them against the
Cabinet of Vienna will he instantly met by military
punish Melt, end all the Austrian posts have been
largely strengthenA Upon examining the dates of
the. facts alluded to in the Italian letter*, I find that,
although eight or nine days had elapsed since the insnr-
rection at Bologna, no corresponding movement had been
made up to the 13th at Anewia, and the extent of the
Bolognese resistance had 141-.4 gone beyond the small town,'
Of Pesaro and Urbitee,, and in them had only appeared on
