posed amount of relief will prove altogether inade-
quate to the emergency. A considerable lapse
of time must precede the relief proposed to be
extended to the Country—an interval which
may yet prove fatal to very many Houses.
En the Metropolis, relief may be more prompt—
necessity, indeed, imperatively demands that
it should be immediate;—how else can the
mass of paper falling due at the begin-
ning of the present month be pre-
served from dishonour ? we have already
expressed our opinion, that a very large pro-
portion of the Bank notes that may be
advanced to the commercial interests will im-
mediately revert to the Bank, in payment of
acceptances discounted by that body,—and such,
w e learn, is now the prevalent opinion on the Royal
Exchange. The Bank may thus become possessed
of the solid security of Goods, in place of Paper;
but assuming a considerable proportion of the
three millions to be so applied, the anticipation
of general relief from this measure, will, as we
greatly fear, terminate in disappointment.

The German Papers received this morning
contain nothing of any particular interest. The
same pressure which exists in England seems to be
spreading itself abroad, a consequence natural
enough, when it is considered how intimately con-
nected British merchants are with, the trade and
commerce of foreign nations. We subjoin a few

After the close of the market yesterday, Con-

to make advances, not exceeding three millions,

the quotation was 76a—sellers. The cause
ascribed for this decline is, an inference from the
observations of Mr. ROBINNON last night that Mi•
nlsters will inevitably be driven to the necessity
of funding Exchequer Bills—a question that
will be decided on Monday next, when the
CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER brings forward
his Financial Statement. Many are, however, of

FRENCH PAPERS.

[Received Last Night.].

" PARIS, Fun. 26.—An important piece of news has jai
been received at Vienna from iVorrutw. William Kuchel.
Decker, one of the conspirators of St. Petersburgh, has jail
been arrested.

" After having long evaded the search roads for him, he
had arrived at Warsaw, in the disguise of a mendicant. A sen-
tinel, who had seen the description of his person, thought he
recognized him under this disguise, and arrested him. A false
passport for A foreign country was found upon him. It should
seem that, on his examination, this young man has confessed
that he was one of the chiefs of the conspiracy. It is said he
has also declared that a printer, who disappeared from St.
Petersburgh four or five years ago, and who had printed pro-
clamations which were to have been published at that time, had
been assassinated by the conspirators for fear of a discovery,
this printer having► just procured a passport to travel abroad.
This, at least, is what is affirmed.

" Letters front Prussia say, that it is very remarkable, that
just when the speech from the Throne announced in France the
project of law on primogeniture, a similar plan wan preparing
at Berlin to be laid before the Council of State. It is a matter
of general complaint in that country, that the estates were so
divided, that in the end the portions would be next to nothing,
and such a law is wished for by the small Land-owners them-
selves, as they would find in it a guarantee for the existence of
their descendants."

DULLS OF WELLINOTON:"EX(ract of a private
letter from Berlin, dated Feb. 20:—" At eleven o'clock, a. in.
on the 17th, the Duke of WELLEsinTow and his suite arrived
at the Black Eagle, where the first object that met his Grace's
view was a small statue in bronze of nix which the
Kinn had sent the same morning. At mei,' all the Generals
and Staff Officers Gneisenatt, and Duke Charles of Meeklen-
Intrgh at their head, walked in full dress to the hotel, to con.
gratulate him upon his arrival. The Duke dined with Lord
(ilanwilliam, and afterwards paid his respects to the King,
Crown Prince, the various members of the Royal Family in
Berlin, and the widow of his old companion in arms, Prince
Blucher. On the 111th, there was in the Linden walk a parade
of the whole garrison ; the troops defiled before the King, on
whose right hand die Duke appeared in the full costume of
a Prussian General, with the decoration of the First Class of
the Order of the Black Eagle. Ilis Grace dined with the King,
in company with the principal Officers of his Majesty's Staff,
after which he proceeded to the Opera, where }testa In the royal
box, between the Crown Princess and the Princess William.
The audience received the hero with unbounded enthusiasm.—
After the spectacle there was a splendid ball at the residence of
Princess Augustus. On the Nth, at ten o'clock A. at. the Duke
and his suite, accompanied by Lord Clanwilliam, Lieut.-Gen.
Von Muffling, ci-devant Military Governor of Paris, &c. pro,
ceeded to the atoll° of Professor Rauch, on which occasion the
colossal statue of Blucher, designed to be erected in this city,
was, for the first time, exhibited. His Grace looks rather better
than he did when he set out on his journey. I assure you that
the reception of' old Blucher in London in 1814, was not a whit
more enthusiastic than his Grace experiences in this capital._..
The street opposite to our hotel is crowded from moping to
evening with well-dressed people, anxious to catch a glimpse of
the Hero of Waterloo."

The report in the Irish Papers of its being Mr. Maim ies
intention to offer himself tar the town instead of the CPUllty of
Cialway at the next Election is without foundation.
A statement has been exhibited of the affairs
of Messrs. Crewdson and Co. of Manchester, from which it
appears tiro the amount owing by them on account of lodg.
tents and balances is about 50,0001. ; and that they have a
surplus, above 20s. in the pound, of about 32,0001.
NOBLE EXTRACTION.—^t,
