THE SPANISH LOAN.

This Morning, the Adjobtrnedgeneral meeting of the Spanish
bondholders was held at the City df London Tavern, for the
purpose of receiving from the Committee the intanttation pro-
mised in the communication read at the last meeting, from the
Spanish Charge d'Affaires, Senhor Jabot, relative to the re-
sources of Spain, and the desire of the Government of that
country to maintain faith with the British bondholders. The
meeting was fully attended. At ten o'clock Mr. Thomas
Weeding took the chair, and stated the retult of his interrew
with the Spanish Minister, who laid before the deputation the
Budget of Spain for 1835, by which it appeared that the diiiL
dends of 5 per cent on the Cortes Loan were reserved and
secured for 1835. Another document of great importance was
an official one he had received that morning. It was from the
Royal Commissions appointed by Spain to carry into effect
the plan of converting- the Cortes loans into active and pas-
sive stock. This communication stated that the new Bonds
would bb dated in November last—(Cheers)—that the money
to pay the interest was secured. This (observed Mr. Keeling)
is very satisfactory,—( Cheers)--and that the arrears of inte-
rest on the Cortes loans, created a passive stock, would be
taken into active stock by twelfth parts: to commence in 1838.

APPALLING TITHE SLAUGHTER.

(From the Tipperary Free Press.)
E:tract of a letter received in Tipperary yesterday :
" Rathcormac, Friday. Will the Tithe-monster ever be sati-
ated ? Must blood yet be peured to satisfy the cravings of the
beast? But I must restrain my feeling.i—and God knows how
the suffe-ers in this campaign can restrain theirls. I have to
tell you of an awful Tithe slaughter in the parish of Gurtroe,
within a mile •of this place, which occurred yesterday. Arch-
deacon Ryder and Capt. Collis went out, accompanied Ly the
police, dragoons and infantry, to distrain nominally for the
hated impost—now so deeply blood-stained—blood marks its
career. The first haggard they went to, they peremptorily
demanded admittance—there was a slight exhibition of re-
sistance—the riot act was read—shots were fired, and nine
men were shot dead—eight men are lying all in the most de-
plorable and desperate state wounded—some were brought into
the hospital most dangerously wounded. I was on the spot
shortly after the carnage took place, and such a sight I could
never have imagined. You will have some idea of the deadly
aim, when not one was wounded below the knee. Exclusive
of the wounded men here, there is another poor man so badly
wounded, that he could not be carried in—l fear he is dead be-
fore this. Is it thought that the people may be driven to
rebellion ? If it is, it is a vain thought--they won't rebel, and
in patience consists their triumph."

THE MARKETS--L-(THIS- DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE.

The large arrivals of all descriptions of Grain caused the trade
to be very dull during the past week. Of Flour also the quan-
tity was considerable. This morning the fresh supplies of Corn
are more moderate than of late. having little fine Wheat
for sale, such readily obtained last week's terms, but other
sorts continued dull. Barley being in great plenty, may be
repoited at one shilling per quarter lower than last Monday.
Beans are dull, and hardly maintain their former quotation.
Pease of both kinds are dull, at Is. per quarter lower.
Oats are now so plentiful, that there has been great diffi-
culty experienced in making sales to-day, and they may be re-
ported Is. per quarter lower than this day se'nnight. The Flour
trade rerea ns in its late dull condition at last week's prices.

LONDON AND GREENWICH RAILWAY.—It ap-
pears by an announcement by the Directors of this great
national work, that upwards of two miles, out of three and three-
quarters (the distance of the Railway between London and
Greenwich) are in nearly a finished state, and that the most satis-
factory progress has been made in every department ; but whether
from inadvertence, or a wish to withhold as premature, other
important facts, no mention is made of the grandest features
in the whole undertaking, that of two other Railway Compa-
nies having already entered into engagements to pay an im-
mense revenue, for leave to pass through their toll-gate and
along the viaduct from the heart of this great metropolis, viz.,
the Gravesend and Croydon, or Brighton Railways ; besides
the revenue that must result from the Pier, or landing place,
about to be constructed at Deptford, connecting the Railway
from its station in High-street with the River Thames, where
the passengers by steam vessels will in future embark and
disembark. The importance of a rapid and st ‘fe communica-
tion between London and the great public est ablishments at
Deptford, Woolwich, and Gravesend, must be c vident to every
enlightened mind ; at all events, the main chat ice seems to be
secured, viz. an abundant harvest to those who hVe. embarked
the capital in the Greenwich Company.
