rakNg.eottT, MAY 23.—The news with us is
ma very important. The Cabinets are labouring
to t►rocnre to the people a solid and la►ting peace.
Therc tie certainty sonic opposing Interests, but
there is little doubt of a final agreement.
Letters front the North of Germany speak of
Incendiaries, who cause the greatest destruction
in all parts since the 15th of April. In the duchy

rested, but little is yet known that can lead to a
discovery of the authors.
It is still thought the Emperors of Austria and
Russia, and the King of Prnssia, will hare an foe

interview, it is. said, is in consequence of the
'holy Alliance of the 26th September, 1815.
The Diet of Hanover has been adjourned by
the Government until the Ist of August.

They speak of "giv►ng a new organization to

journ this night nntil Thursday next. A►n ad.
jultrntnent for a like period i 3 expected in the
Lords

Lord GRENVILLP., fast night in the Howie of
Lords,- gave notice of a motion for tk next
tending to enforce a itcgktratiori of Slaves
in the West Indiei.

‘Ve rejoice to see, this important .and delicate
question postponed for another Session, awl we
trust that in the mean time, investiglitiou at home,
and proper measures by the local
_autliorities in
the West Indies, nu prevuut the risk of another
calonial Conflict on a point of immanity, which,
is, to say the best of it, que3tiotlahle if not un-
called for.

A Motion on the sohjeet of Extents Tit Aid,
brought forward by Mr, V. Smyrit, was List
night negatived iwthe !-louse of Commons by a
malt majoilty.

NEw COMAGE......The subject of the New Coin-
age was last night brought before Parliament.—
There is to be II Coinage of. Shillings and Six-
pences to the amount. of two and a half
of the same standard as to fineness as now ; but
there are to be 13 shillings coined out of a pound
Troy weight, whereas there were formerly bus
82. Two reasons were assigned for this ; to pie.
vent the new MAR being sent out of the country,
and to enable the 9overnment to pay the expellees
of the coinage. The old coin is to be called in,
and all of the Mint standard, even if the Impres-
sions are completely effaced, are to be taken in
tale (piece for piece) ; but the foreign and clipped
coin only to be taken by weight. Tile new coin-
age is expected to, be completed in six or seven
months.

i\l r. CANNING'S return to England, like his
leaving it, has- opened anew the wounds and
months of the Jacobins.
. All the gall and bitterness of the Party are coo-
eentrated upon this occasion. They endeavour to
pay some of their old, yet well-remembered
mortifications, and enter a et edit account f4n•
those which their dread of the Right Hon. Gentle-
man's talents teaches them to antidipate. We
are not at all surprized at the .animosity thus dis-
played; for in truth these gentry hare collectively
and indiridnall7 a long arrear of starting to re-
quite. But we grieve to see theta descend to
mere personal abuse, and low ribaldry. Cannot
the Faction tnnstet it and Intmo:.r enough trut
of their whole nip tlanx to carry on such a war as
this, without degrading themselves by
names Are none,of them fit for any thing but plots
abroad and illiberal revilings at home? Cannot they
manage more than one parody in a season,'and half
a dryzen of laboured inipromptus in a year"? No-
thing left the poor Talents but vinegar sourness,
and irreconcileable asperity ! The Crownirtiult-
ing epigram, and treason-border log reproach, are
they expatriated With tjte Farewell-writing Lord':

the immoral and lascivious verse, involving its
pretty sly obienity and political sting, is it dumb
with Tom LITTLE ? How are the Scribblers
