RUSSIAN LOAN.

The following Letter, which was circu'ar, un-
folds the terms and advantages of this suggested
financial arrangement. We do not vouch for its
-.uthenticity, but as there is a name subscribed, it
is perhaps a genuine document :

perusal, by permission, and under the sanction of
Andrew Duhatchetsky, Esq. his Imperial Majes-

observations to your attention
" This plan of Finance and Loan would seem
to bold' out great advantages tb the English. Ca-

per cent. is given,. and interest at the rate of 6
per cent. is allowed, on the Capital inscribed.—

DISTURBANCES in the ISLE OF MAN.

The new Code of Criminal Laws for the Isle of
Man, incluiling an Act for regulating the sale of
herrings, and an Act for abolishing all paper mo-
ney for the payment of sums tinder twenty shit-
' Hogs, both passed in the last Session of Parlia-
ment, were lately proclaimed, according to
ancient usage, before the inhabitants of the island,
in presence of the Constituted Authorities. Dur-
ing the recital of the latter Act, there appeared a
manifest disposition to tumult amongst a part of
the assembled crowd, which increased in such a
degree as to require the assistance of the civil
power. That power was found ircffectual. Se-
veral stones were thrown by the mob at the bill
neon which the legally Coostituted Authorities
were placed, hot fortunately without effect. At
this juncture the Lieutenant Governor directed the
military (a detachment of the 85th regiment, un-
der the command of Lieut. ASHTON) to give their
aid. The shew of resistance was continued for a
short time ; when the majority of the insurgents,
seeing a few of their leaders subdued and taken
into custody, fled with all the speed they could.
Most of the ringleaders are committed to the gaol
at Cast let own, and warrants are issued against
others. Only one of the mob was slightly wound-
ed in the arm by a sabre. It appears that this
tumult was occasioned by a false report,
triously propagated, that the new laws had for
their object the levying a heavy tribute upon her-
rings, to support the Bishop sod Clergy. The
Act respecting the Herring Fishery only prohibits
the use of tarred nets, and orders the sale to be
no longer by the tally, but measuremeit by the
crap—agreeably to the arrangement in the British
Fishery.

PARLIAMENTARY PA PERS.

EXTENTS IN AID.
An ACT to regulate the issuing of EXTENTS in AID.
[t lth July, 1817.1

Whereas Extents in Aid have in m any cases
been issued for the levying and recovering of
larger sums of money than were due to Isis Ma-
jesty by the debtors on whose behalf such Extent,
were issued, and it is expedient to prevent such
practice in future ; and in other cases Extents in
Aid have been issued at the instance and for the
benefit of persons indebted to his Majesty by
simple contract only : Be it therefore enacted by
he King's most Excellent Majesty, by and with
the advice and consent of the Lords Spiritual and
Temporal, and Commons, in this present Parlia-
ment assembled, and by the authority of the same,
That upon the issuing of every Extent in Ail, on
behalf of any delstorto nis Majesty, aff er the passing
of this Act, his Alajesty's Court of Exchequer at
Westminster, or the Chancellor of his Majesty's
Exchequer, or Lord Chief Baron or other 'isnoot
of the said Court, granting the Fiat for the issuing
of such Extent in Aid, shall cause the amount of
the debt or sum of money due or claimed to he due
to his Majesty to he stated and specified in the
said Fiat ; and that in all cases in which the debt
or debts found due to the debtor to his Majesty
shall be equal to or exceed the debt stated and
specified in the said Fie►t as aforesaid, the amount
of the debt so stated and specified in the said
Fiat shall be indorsed upon the writ, and
the writ so indorsed shall he deemed to be
and be the authority and direction to the
Sheriff or other Officer who shall execute such
rit, in making his levy and executing the same,
as to the amount to be levied and taken tinder the
said writ ; and that in all cases in which the debt '
or debts found due to the debtor to 'his Majesty
shall be of less amount than the debt stated and
specified in the said Fiat as aforesaid, the amount
of such debt or debts found due to such debtor to
his Majesty shall he indorsed upon the writ, and
the writ so indorsed shall be deemed to be and he
the authority and direction to the Sheriff or other
Officer who shall execute the said twit, in making
rues levy and executing the same, as to the amount
to be levied and taken under the said writ ; and
that the money levied, taken, recovered, or re-
ceiVed under or by virtue of every such Extent in
Aid so prosecuted and issued, shall he, by order
.4 the said Court, paid over to and for his Ma-
jesty's use, towards satisfaction of the debt so clue
to his Majesty as aforesaid.
H. Provided always, and be it further enacted, That in

It Ohl s, Arai 4.—ln my hist rI told you'of the
hunt for lodgings, which. we had -to make, after
a most fatiguing journey-hither-. Those we got
into are far from good, and, we had a pretty long
search made for others, on the day after our ar-
rival, but in vain; anti what we have since seen not
only renders us ctintented, but.slit:ws that we are
to be envied. Strangers, nine out of ten of them
English, have continued to arrive, till it is difficult
to procure even a bed-room ; t wo of my friends, who
came yesterday, slept in their carriage ; others I
have heard of who, for four nights, have slept
upon sophas. In whatever part of Italy foreigners
passed the winter—Naples, Sienna, or Florence—
nit meet here now. But the Para is PI at pre-
sent, and unable to gratify curiosity by appear-
ing at the ceremonies at
_St. Peter's Church ;
when he recovers so us to hold a Court, we are
to be presented, and I will then endeavour to
give you some idea of those who attend it.
In the number of the congregation at Church are
C11A111415 W. of Spain, the Queen of ETRURIA
and her son, (who • is still called the Kivg)
and the• Duke of GENOA, brother to the King of
SattneNta. Prince HENRY of Ptiossta. is some-
times it spectator. The three liuotrarauras are
here, Madame Mere--Lucien and-Louis. AmOngst
the English residents arc the Marquis of IJANS'••
ryowN, the Marquis Dowtmas, the Earl of Data-
mon, Lord DoNSTANYILLE, Lord BELMORB, Sir
THOMAS FREEMANTLE and family, Sir C. HUNTER,
and a host of others. Lonnie Lyrotta has jost returned
from Naples, and although there are piequets placed
all along the road, at a distance of a mile from
each other, and he had an escort of guards, a ban-
ditti attacked him, and he was not -rescued till
utter an actual engagement. This you may de-
pend upon, though 1 can tell you
.no further par-
ticulars of it. I learn also, that two Gentlemen
(whose !motes I will not repeat npon hearsay}
coining from Florence, were stopped and robbed,
loween the• picquets, near ,Viterbo, anti one
of them shot. Several of the Italian Govern-
ments are so sensible of the disadvantage which
this interruption to the access of foreigners roust
bring upon their subjects, that they concor with
each other most cordially in measures for protect.'
ipg the roads, with considerable expence doubtless
to themselves, but hitherto, as vim see, without
success, either on the southward, or the northward
of Rome.

Notwithstan►lin dm crowded state of this place
pro% isions are no►t denr.

P.S.--We are very political here, and, of
entirse, have tviany reports. The of her day war be-
tween England and Austria was talked of; andi,t be
English were to 'be ordered to quit Home in
twenty days ! Yesterday nothing was said 04
the matter. I have just heard of another robbery
on the roal from Naples, in consequence of which
we shall abandon our scheme of travelling by
night, it we go at all. Perhaps we shalt be able
to other voyageurs, and form a soft of ca.
raVan.

neral introductory ren►nrl:s

• " Your Committee am d,vcply sensible of the tidrettie dif-
fienlty of tweet taining the precise iiolt4 at which our Military
ilstablishments should-he fixed, on account-of *political con-
sideCations, and otilters of a still more delicate nature, whicii
nst•neceisarijyin\olre thentso vett itt the question.. In taking
into consideration the Peace Establishments of tlw country,
it must he remembered, that if on the one hand they are pro-
posed to be kept in a state of complete preparation,.with
slew of affording entire security to the notion both
at home and abroad, ,The continued expellee most bear
so heavily
.upon the resources of the • cOuntry, as to pre;
elude all hope of relief front the hut-delis of iaXation and
the load of debt incurred during a long Series of pro-
tracted lrastilities : on the other hand, if they should be
reduced too low, the temporary. glint in point of econoinY
might he more than counterbalanced by the hazardous situa-
tion iii•whieh this Kingdom, together with its numerous and
disont• uependencies, might eventually he placed upon the
breaking out of an unforeseen or sodden tear; for which such
a state of deficient military preparation might possibly offer
i; snMil temptation.
" It .is rather 'therefore for the Executive Government,
acting on their responsibility, to propose; and for the wis-
dom of the'Honse to judge, of a Matterpf this high import-
ance, than for'your Comaiiitee to offer an opinion; but they
observe in the mean time with satisfactten, that upon a com-
parison between the Estimates of the two.last years, and
those for the present year, .much will appear, to have been
effected in the way of reduction, both as, to numbers and as
to expence ; and they entertain a contidat 'tope that such
further reductions will continue to be made, as may be found
cpusistentrwith all the true interests of the country, neither
erring on the side of absolute confidence on the king dura-
tion of peace, ma giving way tounwartantable apprehensions
of ekatiger and aggression.

" And your Committee further submit, that as the duration
and magnitude of the astonishing exertions made by this 'dug-
dom during the late war, must mainly be attributed to the
pecuniary resources then brought into operation, which could
never he more justly deemed the sinews of war than doting
tine winds:course of that eventful contest ; so these can he re-
novated and strengthened in no other way than by retrench-
ment and economy during the opportunity afforded by a re-
turn of peace.

" At the same time, this Most important -consideration
must al was be Lept t'.l view, that if our Military F,stablish-
ments should once he suffered to fall below the standard of
efficiency and discipline, to which they are now raised by great
i..xertions founded on experience, ►t will not he possible to re-
store them again to the same height without great waste of
time, however urgently their hest Aervices may he required."

Nothing of public, importance occurred in this
Court to-day,' the whole of the forenoon being
devoted to the discussion of petitions respecting
toolebted bankruptcies, lit one case, in' which it
-appeared the party had kept a stud of horses and

.on the ground of buying horses and selling their

the Paymaster-General's Department, the business
has in some respects nebessajily increased by the cessation of
the war, which tiecasions,a verk coo,iderahle a tiementation of
the number of claimants for 1-I.rlf Pay, and inter retired Al-
lowances, and which tun for a conciderable time In a great
degree counterbalance the detrease of expease which would
otherwi'se be occasion,d by a t edociion :Of Establishment, or
a diminution of the magnitode of. the annual accounts.
The Deputy and Assistant-Deputy Paymasters-General
abrtsad, are totemic(' to be abolished during peace, and the
duties payitig the troops on Fareign StatiOns arc to de-
volve upon the Commissariat Department. The savings of
expense upon this head will be, fur the present year as com-
pared with the last, 5,47:3/., which is the difference between
the actual reduction of the expenee of this branch of the De-
partment, and the allowances granted according to a regu-
lation
of 12th July 1316, fixing the tate of such allowances.
These allowances amount to one-fourikof the pay of those
Deputies, who received 31. or 2!. per day, and to one-third to
all Deputies who received 1/. 10s. per day, and to Assistants
(in all cases) to one-fourth of their pay ; which allowances,
considering the great trust and responsibility imposed on
these officers, your Committee ,lo nut think unreasonable.
The whole amount of these ail JWances is nut likely to exceed
about 5,0001. per unbuta

" In every Office of. Account it is extremely material to sec
how far the interior Establishment has been sufficient, either
in point of strength, !iv. of diligence, to
.keep pace with the
Current service in entering and rendering their accounts ; and
it is with great satisfaction that your Committee observe,- in
I his 'department, that not only the current occulting of this
office, thade up under 48 Geo. 3, c. 49, hare been regularly
rendered to the Audit Othce, but that all the arrear.aceintintJ
prior to that period, viz' from 1782 to 1,207, have been deli-
vered to the same Board, and nearly the whole of them audited

has at leogtia completed her laborious task of
editing the Memoirs left by this celebrated Courtier.-
It is well known that in the time of Lotus XIV.
there were two Noblemen at the Court of this
Monarch employed in writing a daily journal of
every thing that passed under their observation ;
one of these was the Duke nil ST. SIMON, the
other was the MallitliS DE DANGEAU. 13y. exa-

just opinion of the events, and of their causes and
consequences, of this brilliant period o the )'reach
