CONSTANTINOrLE, :AN. 15.-7-The Baron de
Strogotroff had, on the Ist inst., a conference', in
which, with reference to the Bth Article of the
last Treaty of Pence, he strongly pronounced in
favour of the'Servian Nation. Ile bad, how-
ever, the mortification to learn, that the Grand
Seiguor would consider as an infraction of his
rights of Sovereignty all ulterior pretensions re-
specting this object.
" MADRID, FEB, 10.—Iutelligence..wcirtby of

credit from Gibraltar states, that the Emperor of

" VIENNA, FEB. 13.-:,—There has been for some
days past a report here that there had been an
insnrrection at Naples, id consequence of which
the Royal Family had been compelled to embark

unfounded.

" FNANKFORT, Fan. 19.—1 t results from the
declarations of the different Ministers at the Diet,
that the great Germanic Powers, particularly
Austria ail Prussia, insist that, in conformity

be Provincial States, or Representative Assent-
Wies, in all the States of Germany, where they
do not already exist.
" BERLIN, FEn. 1 I.—The Loan- Which has been
so much criticized, and which notwithstanding
appears to us very necessary, will not be concluded
according to the conditions proposed by Messrs.
Rothschild and Co. Although these conditions are
not so heavy as was thought, the Loan will cost
us 11 per cent. . It is•certain that Messrs. Roths-
child and Barandon, bankers, had been.charged
by Government with the negociation of a Loan
of three millions sterling but no conditions- were
agreed upon. These Gentlemen then have pub-
lished their prospectus without the authority of
the Prussian Government, which has not approved
their plan, bur will conclude another treaty, of
which the conditions are less exorbitant.

VIENNA, FEB. 14.—We are assured that our
Government has determined to borrow a consi-
terable sum of money, and that negociations have
been set on foot to that effect with the English
Bankers, particularly with Messrs. Rothschild,
Parish, and Co; who are to supply our Court
with sixty million florins in money. We hope
that the principal houses of the Bank of Vienna
will partake of this Loan, which will be employ-
ed entirely for the amelioration of our finances,
and the discharge of a great quantity of paper-
money. The bases proposed for this Loan are.
not yet mentioned"

THE FUNDS.—CiIy, One o'Clock —Yesterday
was settling day at the Stock Exchange for the
immense speculative Consul Account, and from
the situation of the Market; it was hoped that
every thing would go off without a failure ; two
defaulters were, however, declared this morning,
on the opening of the Market—one a respectible
Jobber in the Market, of long standing, the other
a Broker, or rather a' larger Speculator, of not
more than twelve months standing, who, in or-
der to get rid of an immense Bill Account, sup-
plied the Commissioners of the Sinking Fund
with the entire of their Stock, and afterwards
sold about 160,0001. in the Market. The Ac-
count settled at about 79 to 79i. This morning
the Market is somewhat better, being 791 for
Morey, and 794 for the April AccoUnt.

The Duchess of NORTHUMBERLAND was last
night delivered of a Still-born male Child,
at her house in Saint James's Square. We are
;nappy to add, that her Grace is as well as can
be expected, under such a disappointment to the
hopes of her noble family.

The length of the Debates in both Houses, last
night, precludes us from the opportunity of making
any remarks On the topics of rdiscussion into to hick
they respectively entered. THE JNIDEMNITY BILL
(inserted in our Paper yesterday), since., for the
sake of form, we must so stile a Lt.gisjative mea.
sure that ought to be expressive of national grati-
tude rather than be a provision: for 'Ministerial
exemption and security, was read a second time in
the House of Lords, and, maugte all the attempts
of Opposition, the division was 100 to 33 in favour
of Ministers, a majority so honourably victorious
on their part as to require no comment front its.
The LORD CIJAcELLoR, the Duke of .lAloNrxosx,
and the Earl of Livenroot., effectually combated
and defeated their opponents, and Viscount SID..
MOUTH, with a modest firmness peculiar to his
character, and resudting from the inens conscir.
recli, fay refitted all the allegations against hint. In
the House of Commons, the Report of the Secret
Committee of that House was presented, and must
have given entire, satisfaction to all its loyal, ra-
tional, and well-disposed Members. As to others,
nothing can satisfy them but a restoration to
power ; and then, if occasion should require, they
would doubtleis be found as warmly to defend
the same measures as they are now strenuous in
opposing and acrimonious in reviling them. In
tact, the'Report of the Commons fully confirms
that of the Lords, completely vindicates Govern-
ment, and represents time simulation of the country
to be such as must excite satisfaction in the peo-
ple, and gratitude towards those to whose wisdom,
vigour, • and decision, we are indebted for so
tramiquit-and stir fiourishirg a state of affairs.
