WEDNESDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 1, 1826.

Letters from Portsmouth announce the arrival
there of his Majesty's ship Tartar, Captain
BROWN, from Lima. Two millions of dollars are I
said to have been shipped on board this vessel,
equal to 450,0001. sterling. The Tartar was insured
at LLOYD'S for 150,0001. The Tartar brings
letters from Rio of the 26th of November. Two
thousand troops had sailed for Monte Video, but
it was thought that the operations of the 13raz1.
liana would he. defensive. A magnificent ban-
quet had been given by the English merchants
to Sir CIIARLIN STrwAnT, and the officers of the
Wellesley, 74, and Tartar and Diamond frigates,

The Elate of yesterday, arrived this morning
by express. On Mondny the latest price of the

ST. P TEUSfIUROHM JAW. 9.

This morning being the fortieth day from the decease of the
late Emperor Alexander, a funeral. service was performed
in the Chapel of the Ca,tle. . Their Majesties the Emperor
and Empress Alexandrine were present, together with the
Grand Duchess Helena, and the whole Court. Seniavine,
Vice-Admirel of the Baltic fleet, has been appointed Aide-de.
Catup-General to his Imperial Majesty.

OVEJUIA, JAN. 0.

Since the news of Alexander's death reached Constantinople
the Divan has held. several extraordinary meetings. On the
22d there was a grand Carnival, at which all the Ministers
were present. On the breaking up of the Aisembly several
Messengere were dispatched icklifferent quarters of the Iler!la'
And to the Viceroy of Egypt.
Orders have been given to several Greek Priests to follow
Ilusseim Bey and Itedschid Effendi, with a view that they
might assist in persuading the Greeks to accept the proposals
of the Commissioners. Intelligence faVourable to the Greeks
was currently circulated in Constantinople.

THE ELTCTIONs.
.eirrondlisement de Lisieux (Atvsknos.)

The Marquis tie Neuville has been elected by a majority of
123, above NO voters. In the first section the Marquis de Neu•
villa had 200 votes ; M. Dupin, 88. In the second section, the
Marquis ds Neuvillu obtained 107 votes ; M. Dupin, 08. M.
De Lalot had 3 votes.

The first scrutiny at Vervins has produced no results. The
number of voters was 201. General Sebastiani obtained lib
votes ; M. le Due de Drams enema (Ministerial Candidate),
76; M. Lafitte, .37. Yesterday they proceeded to a second
scrutiny.

The Etoik contains a copy of the Manifesto of
the ,Eursatott, which we recently noticed, remit-
ting corporal punishment to those under sentence
of exile, and ftl4o of debts due to the Crown, not
exceeding 2,000 rubles. We had hoped, that the
discontinuance of the Knout might have been
prospectively extended to nil future cases, but the
remission of corporal puttbdunent, appears to be
granted only to those at present under condemna-
tion. All the different corps of the grand Russian
army of the South, comprising the troops in Bes-

qn the subject of a failure there, it rnight-be

think it proper to notice this fact, in order to
counteract the impression that might other-

The Collector of the port of Halifax, the Honourable T. N.
Jeffery, has signified, officially, to the Halifax Chamber of
Commerce, that he cannot admit American vessels to enter
under the provisions of the new Colonial Trade Act, which
goes into operation on the sth January next.

A file of Gazettes from Lima, to the 26th of

They contain little of interest, and that princi-

A Letter from New Orleans, dated Dec. 21,
gives the following particulars of the state of
the Cotton Market, and commerce, in general,!at,
that place :
Out Markets still continues in an unsettled state, owing
chiefly to the want of purchasers for the English Market; Cot-
ton, however, arrives more freely from the Mississippi, and the
adjacent rivers have of late considerably risen. Prime Orleans
are still in demand for the Havre trade, and command a good
Pricliely 18 cents per lb. For three different crops that price
has been paid within these few days. Ordinary grades, how-
ever, are much lower in proportion. Some good fair Cottons
CM now be had for 12i to 131 cents. But the want of cash
keept many out of the market; and those individuals who were
(110 Principal buyers last season remain quite inactive. Two
Wines have taken 'place since I last advised you, viz.—
ero►nelin, Davis, and Co., and Sabatier and Grima ; the latter
4CCOMPhriied with an atrocious forgery to the amount of
100,000 dollars. Grime, the defaulter, has fled, and has not
since been heard of. He (it is believed for the period of two

Years) has heen using the names of several of our most wealthy

citizens, by giving ;rites indorsed by one or other of them for
• goods and discount. Mr. Sabatier was in lobo ignorant of this

fact, and no man etands higher in the public estimation. He
it an aged man, and can neither write or read. Grime is the
sole depredator, and no one ever expected or dreamt that such
an act would be committed by him. The small-pox rages
here with considerable violence. At Natches all vessels coming
from New Orleans are quarantined.

We make the following Extracts from the
German Papers, received this morning :

SMYRNA, DEC, 16.
• (From the Oriental Spectator.)
We have received five Numbers of the Hydra Journal, from
a 63 to 169. In No. 156, after having said that the Greeks, in
general, desire a third national assembly, which may remedy
the present evils. The Friend of the La:es judiciously oh-
;term, that thil third Assembly would be as useless as ridicu-
lous, when Ibrahim Puha is in the heart of the Peloponnesini.
" What figure (it says), could he made in this Assemby
.9y the representative of a house which no longer exists, which
IsKiven up to pillage and the flames? Let us first run to arms
50ff exterminate the enemy, for the destruction of the enemy
'mast lead to the National Assembly, and not the National As-
llernbly to the destruction of the enemy.'
In No. 159, the Friend of the Laces asks what kind of Go-
vernment would suit Greece—a question which all the loge-
nutty of Modern Greece would find, we believe, very difficult to
obswer. It then speaks of several letters received et Hydra,
which point Out the had conduct of some Eparchs, and declares
that it will publish their names, if they do not behave better.
Lastly, in No. 158, the Friend t;f the Laws confesses " that
Vef is in every heart, and printed in the countenances of all
retriots; and adds that, " like Diogenes, it looks for a
Greek.”

Console—Yesterday closed - 79471

After the Close

This morning opened

The Market opened this morning at 79ii.
Business very heavy, and bat few transactions. The
quantity of momey stock thrown upon the
Market is considerable, and apparently recover-
ing. At one o'clock, the price of Consols bad
advanced to 80i.}.

This improvement was to be attributed to the
Market being lint in better spirits by the expec-
tation of some measure for relieving the ge-
neral embarrassment, which presses so severely
on every branch of commerce, trade, and manu-
facture. This expectation, appears to be excited,
by the Special Meeting of the Bank Proprietors
to be held on Friday next. A meeting of this
nature has not been held for a great length of time,
and opinions are naturally various and discordant
as to its real object. The rumours most prevalent
are—that the Bank now contemplates the establish-
ment of provincial branches—that the issue of Bank
paper will be proportionately increased—tha t only
five millions of Exchequer bills will be funded—
and that the limitation of the number of part-
ners in a Banking House to six, will be
repealed. Such are the rumours in general
circulation—whether well or ill founded, we
have no data on which to form an opi-
nion. The frequent recurrence of distress and
losses—notoriously arising from the issue of
small notes by Country Bankers—certainly re-
quire Legislative interference to correct the
evil. If Banks, and small notes, we met
have, it can admit no possible doubt, that
the hazard incurred by the Public will be
materially dimini4hed by the establishment of
Banking Companies, in which the properties of
many proprietors being invested, the public
would have a security from which no defalcation
might be dreaded.
