LONDON,
SATURDAY EVENING, MARCH 25, 1829.

The Catholic Relief Bill has passed the Com-
mittee, been approved by the House, and is to be
read a third time on Monday next. The Election
Bill is also to be read a third time on Monday.
Should the " factious opposition" wish to show any
resistance, however vain, we trust that the friends
of civil order and religious liberty will muster strong
on Monday evening, and send the Bill up to the
Lords with an overwhelming majority. Nothing
can so convince the wisdom of the Upper House
as the fact that they will be doing themselves a
service by giving their friendly aid to a Bill which
has already obtained the sanction of his MAJESTY,
and the cordial approbation of the people through
their Representatives in Parliament.

Sir CHARLES WETHERELL has been again ex-
posing himself, and diverting the House by one of
those rambling violent incoherent tirades in which
he shines with such peculiar brilliancy. The Hong
and Learned Member is well known for the very
exuberant action of his arms, one of which rendered
additionally weighty by the Catholic Relief Bill
which he flourished in his hand, fell last
night with prodigious emphasis on the unpro-
tected skull of Mr. BANKS; and rebounded thence
with a sound closely resembling that made by a
drumstick when it falls upon a hollow drum. The
House, we need scarcely add, was in extacies.

The French Papers conta;n two Orders of the
Day to the Russian Grand Army of the Danube—
one from Field-Melilla' Count WITTGENSTEIN, on
resigning the command on account of ill health and
advanced age, having served 40 years in the army,
and the other from Count DIEBITSCII, on assuming
the command. The address of the first is simple
and unaffected, dwelling upon the glory which the
" Second Army " has acquired, while that of his
successor is confident and inspiring, looking forward
to renewed exploits, which shall prove that, with
the brave warriors of the Russian army, nothing is
impassible when the army fights for its faith, for its
Emperor, and its country. General DIEBITSCII has
the reputation of being a man of quick discernment
and prompt activity in carrying his plans into exe-
cution. It is only by such qualifications that he
can hope to make a sudden and deep impression on
the Turks, who are dilatory, obstinate, and enduring.
By this time both parties are pretty well acquainted
with each other's capabilities, and the first month
of active operations will very probably give a lead-
ing character to the campaign.

German Papers of the 2lst inst. have been re-
ceived. An article dated Patras says that shocks
of an earthquake had been felt there for some weeks
previous to the Bth of February. Affairs in Greece
were proceeding much in the usual manner—suc-
cesses and reverses, with occasional brutality, and
consequent retaliation, when their evil genius of the
Greeks placed them at the mercy of the Turks.
