had been implicated for political offences since
the commencement of the War of Independence,
except those who were concerned in the Con-
gress of Truxillo ; the discussion on this subject
continued on the 30th, and after having been
referred to the Executive, how far such measure
could, with safety to the Government, be granted,
was finally passed on the 6th July, by a vote of
59 for its adoption, and 26 against it. The
scarcity of Quicksilver was such, that it appears
to he thrice the value in Lima it is in England.

Arrived yesterday at Dover from Calais,
his Majesty's steam packet Salamander. A
gentleman of the name of NEW MAN came over
in her, charged with dispatches for the Foreign
Office, said to be from Greece ; he proceeded
immediately for London.

The following, from the Nuremburgh Cor-
respondent of the 28th ult. may be interesting
to our Agricultural and Commercial Readers :

MAYENCE, OCT. 23.

Though the harvest in the southern part of Germany
has been perfectly satisfactory, the prices are still high, and
the great landholders are in no haste to sell. This state of
things, so favourable to the farmers, is not owing so much
to the exportation by way of Holland, as to the scarcity in
the Eastern and Northern Departments of France, where
it is said they have hardly made half a crop, and conse-
quently need large supplies from Germany. The Wine
trade is becoming very brisk, and the prices are rising,
especially of the vintage of 1826, which is of such a qua-
lity as to supply the place of that of 1818 and 1819.
The steam-boats between' Coblentz and Alayence have
ceased to ply for this year. The thick fogs which prevail
in the autumn, in some parts of this division of the river,
render it, if not impossible, yet highly dangerous for steam
boats to navigate it during this season.

Gibraltar Chronicles and Commercial Lists,
to the 16th ult. have been received. The fol-
lowing is the only article worth extracting :
a Spanish corvette and brig of war are at Al-
gesiras, they arrived on the Bth inst., said for the
purpose of taking troops on board to transport
to Catalonia. A French brig, from the Medi-
terranean, beating about to the eastward, got
aground off the Rock, near Fort Barbara, but
floated again a few hours after. The French
convoy, lying wind-bound, at Algesiras, sailed
on the 12th, to the westward. Yesterday two
French brigs of war, from the westward, anchored
in that Port.

TRIESTS, OCT. 21.—Arrived the English
brig Barbadoes Packet, Captain LOWES, from London.
This vessel has been plundered of the most valuable part of
her cargo, consisting of Indigo, rhubarb, cassia, bale goods,
tin plates, Etc. &c., between Cape Spartavento and Zante,
by a Greek polacre brig, of about 280 tons, 14
guns, and seventy-fire men : she had possession of the
Barbadoes Packet for two days, and sent 88 men on board,
who were employed for sixteen hours in taking out all tide
handy and most valuable packages. There are reports to-
day of several Austrian vessels having been captured by
the Greeks, but we have not yet received particulars.

THU. FUNDS-(THIS DAY).

CITY, TIVELIR 0' CLOCK.

To-day, being the anniversary of the Gun-powder
Plot, is kept as a holiday at the Bank. Under the
impression of the arrival of important intelligence,
which is hourly expected from Constantinople, both
the Stock Exchanges are open for the transaction
of business, but for the paucity of the operations
hitherto they might as well have been shut, as there
has been nothing going forward but the Bulls and
Bears amusing themselves with firing squibs and
crackers at each other, and bringing back to their
memory their former exploits at a more youthful
period on this anniversary. Consols opened at 87
for money, and 87i 4 for account, since which, in
the absence of any news, the price has remained
stationary; India Bonds are 100 pm.; Exchequer
Bills, 58 60.

There is literally nothing doing in the Foreign
Funds to-day ; Mexican Bonds are 54i The
public begin to feel some anxiety at the non-arrival
of the expected dollars, and a doubt is entertained
by many that another disappointment may possibly
take place on this point, similar to that which took
place in Colombian St4ck. Greek are still 15i- 161;
the conduct of their cruisers has for some time only
had a tendency to disgust by their acts of piraCy, an in-
stance of which is given to-day, which shows friends
or foes are all the same to them. The increasing
system of plunder must now be met by vigorous
measures, for the English flag appears to be no
protection, and we may, in fact, be considered rather
in a state of war than peace with these desperadoes.

Consols have been 87i sellers, but are now buyers
again, with little or nothing doing. The most re-
spectable part of the brokers have been fairly driven
out of the house by noise, and suffocation from the
smoke of fireworks.

Mexican Bonds, 6 per Cent., are 54 after

ANNIVERSARY OF THE GUNPOWDER-
PLOT.—The firing of the guns in St. James's-park was
dispensed with this day, in consequence of the indisposi-
tion of Lady GODERICH, who is in her confinement.
Earl BATHURST and Lard MELVILLE have
been for some days past in the neighbourhood of Perth.—
Their Lordships came on a visit to the Earl of MAI,iSFI ELD
at Scone, but, on the receipt of the melancholy and unex-
pected intelligence of the death of Mr. MAMMA M, brother
to the Countess of MANSFIELD, theft distinguished visitors
departed for Kinfauns, where Lord GRAY is entertaining
Caledonian Mercury.
