A letter from Alexandria of the 27th ult., in the
Cologne Gazette, says :—" Good intelligence has
been re-established between the Ottoman Porte and
the Viceroy. Levies of troops were made, but there
was nothing extraordinary in them. SOLIMAN PACNA,
commander-in-Chief of the army, has dismissed
12,000 veterans, and is replacing them by new men;
nut the army is still far from reaching the 30,000 men
fixed by the Ottoman Porte."

MoVEMENT AGAINST TIIF GOVERN

THE. REMOVAL OF Smnin 1 j
of petitioninging of the rate-payers of St. Sepulchre's
very numerous mee,. - ELD-31ALLE/.—Last evening a
vestry-room, to consider the propriety
Parliament agairst the Government Bill for
the removal of Smithfield-market, the Rev. James Jackson,
vicar, ~ in the chair. The Chairman h • t the meet-
ing aving openei
in a short speech, IN
Ir. Butler, •
in proposing the first reso-
lution, said that the Government measure at present before the
Douse was most unconstitutional, and got up for the purpose
of. centralisation, and conferring a large amount of patronage
in the shape of commissioners and other officers on the exis-
ting Government. It behoved every nian in the kingdom to
protest against the Bill, for should the vested rights of the
city of London be swept away,who knows but that the Govern-
ment may claim the same privilege with the docks at Liver-
pool, or the gas works at M'arichester. The way in which the
corporation Bill was swamped w", to say the least of it,
disgraceful ; circulars were forwarded to the Members to
attend on Wednesday in their places to vote against the Bill,
and he (Mr. Butler) believed that this was the first occasion
that the services of a whipper-:n were required to quash a
private Bill, and he would ask,. who was to pay 600/. a
the parish should
year to the poor-rates of the tolls be taken
from the corporation. Resolutions protesting against the
Government Bill havirg been passed, and a petition adopted,
the Rev. Chairman left the chair, when a Tote of thanks
was passed, and the Wet bvnatid.
