way to relieve .those sutlerings is not to attribute
them to 'a wrong cause, arid to endeavour' ii.rsi to

ttess, and then .to convert it to the service of some
political 'of P.4ity parpose. The extraordinary and

cial Embarrassments both in Great Britain and ,
Ire-
land, without recurring to the Union, a measure
with which 'they.'„ca n , by nu` possibility, have any
connexion. It might as ,well have.been asserted by
!those persons in Scoftind, who ,were partakers in
the general distress in 1720, that their ntisfortune
was occasioned. by .the Union between England and
Scotland, ' which happened twelve years before. Or
it !night as truly now be said, that the failures in
the City of London, in 1810, were to be attributed
to the Union between Great Britain. and Ireland in
1800. We trust, however, that thesood tense of the.
~
People of Ireland will see through the attemp.s that
are made to deceive them, and that the unremillidg
exertions of the Irish Government will be succes,ful
in effectually relieving this temporary embarrass-
ment.

• - Last night we received Paris Papers to the 7th
inst. from which we have extra(ted the
.todowill
article

" PARIS, Atio. 6.—M. Daru, Intendant-General
of bis Majesty's Household has set out for Hol-
land."

"AMSTERDAM, JULY 3 .—A guard of honour is
enrolling this moment in .Amsterdatn, where we
hOpe soon to see his Majesty the. Emperor. Are-.
sister for this purpose bas been opened at head-
quarters, and a nurnberlof young men have alreidy
incribed their names. A meeting is to take place on
Thuriday • for choosing the officers, and fixing the
uniform that rs to be worn."..

" ST. PETERSBURGH, JULY 10.—.--Govrument
has received, within these few days, numerous tro-
phies taken from the Turks, such as stands. of .co-
lours, horses' tail, &c., ;Nothing, however,.official
has been published since the taking of Silistria.—
General Kamensky is- said to be advancing, and
hopes are entertained that he will obtain a complete
victory over the Grand Vizier..

"-We are assured that a commercial house in thiS
city has advanced two millions towards the luau that
is just opened.
" The Grand-Duchess, Catharine Pawlowna, and
her most serene hasband, are'daily expeded."
" Tormaz, JULY 17.—HerMajesty the Empress
is rather. indisposed since her return. Their Royal
Highnesses the Princesa Antoine, of Saxony, and
Princess Theresa, who accompanied .her to this
place, have re►urued to Dresden."

" VIENNA, JULY 25.—Ilieir Majesties the Em=
peror 'of Austria and the Emperor of Russia have
concluded .a treaty for the rest orat ioti' of deserters on
each side. The relations of friendship,' says the
Emperor of Austria, which fortunately subsist be-
tween us and his Majesty the Emperor of all the
RUssias, and the disposition that exists on both sides
to cultivate sentiments advantageous for both em-
pires,y have induced us, as well as his Majesty the
Emperor of Russia,. to enter into a convention for
delivering up descriers.'
" The .Court Gazette still observes a 'profound si-
lence respecting the Russian • and Turkish armies,
and the reports in circulation are not sufficiently au-
thentic to attach any credit to them. It is therefore
advisable to wait for further information, to avoid
the risk of being contradided.

" Mr. Adair•has announced inz letter to Sir Francis
Berry, the British Consul at Smyrna, that he is
about to leave Constantinople. . Notwithstanding
the care he takes to conceal it, the embirrassment of
this Minister is evident. We ask out-Selves why he
leaves Constantinople, at a moment when their
faithfol ally, the Grand Turk, finds himself hard
pushed by a Power that threatens to uveiturn the
Ottoman empire ?"
" BERNE, JULY 2.B.—We daily .expea the Royal
Family of Sweden, as well as the GI and.lluchess
Constantine of Russia, who is at present at the baths
of '..chinztiacht."

" Sr. SEBASTIAN, JULY 27.—The French brig,
the Adventure, arrived this day at Port Passage from
New-York. She brings the following news
" Canada, continues in a Vale of effervescenee,
which gives great unea,iness to the English.
" The Havannah has declared itself independent.
The French that were forced to quit it are recalled,
and their property restored.

_ .
The Province of the Caraccas has also declared
itstdt independent.

" The Mulatto, Rigaud, had arrived at Port au
Prince, where he took the conatuand of the Blacks."

The following is an ex►raat of a letter from Bene-
carlo, :It which place, we understand, thivisit of the
French was so short that they had no time even to
levy contributions :

" The French are at Morilla, within about eight
leagues of this place ; but they are not in consider-
able force, it haying been found necessary for them
to send a great number of troops to the westward of
Castile, to increase their strength in, that diredion.
" Notwithstanding the shameful treachery at Le-
rida, and the noble but unsuccessful defence of Me-
quinenza, the Catalans are more adive than ever to
give eticaual resistanw to the enemy::

Some of recent accOunts- from Gibraltar stafe,;
that the late brave defender of Gerona,. who,,afrer
the capitulation of that place was taken prisoner to:
Figueras, had, since his imprisonment, been inhu-.
manly put tddeath by means of_slow poison, This
horrid deed is'attributed to the Frenclimari who had
him in keeping, and the preparing. of.hisr viauds.
Ever since the war with Russia, BUONAPARTE'S
finances, through the absolute misery of the pet;ple,
'have been daily impairing. Alartried.at the inci-eas-
ing.deficiency, he ordered that monthly acCo..lnts of
the Treasury should be presented to him, but with-
out being able to find any means of remed3in.g it.—
The first plunder of Spain, and that of Austria,
which last brought 350,000,000 of livrei, or about
fifteen millions sterling, into -his coffers, together
with the produce of the Arnerican seizures, have
afforded some- temporary resources, but tar from
adequate to the expense of the ruinous war in Spain,
to the maintenance of an enormous army,. and of e
Government altogether the most expensive that ever
oppressed a nation. From the total want of col - •
merce, the whole of the taxes ultimately: fills on
the landed property ; and we know as a certain fad,
that the produce -of Custom-houses does not even
pay the Officers, 'and that rrione3)..is sent from Paris"
for that purpose, even to sea-ports which formerly
rivalled the commerce of London andof Amsterdam.
But how can landed property- bear long that accu-
mulated weight without even a market to dispose of
the produce of agriculture ? The thing is in itself
impossible. People will go on for some time mort-
gaging their property to exist, ,pay their taxes, and•
cultivate their estates, as they have done in FranCe,
but the continued pressure, added to the weight of
accumulating interest, must soon deprive them .of
every means ; and such is actually the case in that
country. In many of the wine districts, vineyards,
which require so Much culture, are totally aban-
doned. to nature': lauded property in .t hose countries
has fallen four-fifths, or rather, it has no marketable
value. The corn estates are somewhat better cir-
cumstanced L--the fall in their value has not been-so -
great, at least in lands of superior quality ; yet in'
most provinces., stich as Britanny and Poitou, there
are three crops of corn on-the hands of the farmers, -
who are compelled to sell at any price to pay their
rents and taxes, without any probable hopes of be-
ing able to do it much longer. • Hence the facilities
which BUONAPARTB gave to the importation of corn
into this country. In such circumstances it behoves
Great Britain not to meet with too great eagerness
the propositions of the enemy, , nor to abandon
hastily the just measures of retaliation' she has
adopted, and by which. 'all the evil he intend to
bring on this country, has recoiled with double force
on himself.

It is said that General SARRAZIN has put into the
hands of Government very circumsontial observa-
tions on the whole of the frontiers, and the coast,
from the Scheldt to Trieste; the organization and
position of the armies; the state of the tortresses,
C. &c.

The war in the dramatic world seems to be carry-
ing on with great vigour. Bonztastes Fariosd ,at the
Haymarket, is strongly opposed by Jack the -Giant •
killer, at the Lyceum, and they have both a numer-
ous troop of followers.

It is somewhat whimsical that the last Bankrupt
list contains the naine of Lavender, a gardener.
.PoPE is engaged to perform a tew nights at ,outh-
arupton, where he was very well receive(l h.t. sea-
son. It is probable that he will exert his graphic as
well as his theadical pow.ers with ghat success dur-
ing the excursion.

The immense quantity of 3766 waggon-loads of
coal were shipped from the Earl of Lousdale'E pits .
at Whitehaven in one week.

Viscount DUDLEY and WARD has been seriously
indisposed, at his house in Park-lane. Dr. lintwa,
Messrs. CLINE, WILSON, and BRADLEY have attend-
ed his Lordship in consultation daily. Mr. BRADLEY
hag been in cons►ant attendance night and day; but
we are happy to add that his Lordship is completely
recovered, and on the eve of setting -off for his
Country seat by the sea side.
