We find that the KIN G••• 110 far from being in the
state of health described by the Court circulars, and
Windsor articles—was bled several times last week, and
lost nearly fifty ounces of blood before the inflammation
could be subdued, which—we rejoice to add—it was,
completely. We are second to no man in loyalty, nor in
earnest wishes for the health of our SOV EREIGN : but

we never will make ourselves parties to mis-representation,
calculated to dupe—and therefore to wrong—the public.

Some extracts will be found in another page from an
unpublished pamphlet, which has just been put into our
hands, relative to the political condition of the Jews in
this country. It is a subject, in our eyes, neither desti-
tute of interest, nor of small importance : and we shall
from time to time, not only continue our selections from
the pamphlet, but offer such remarks of our own to
the consideration of our readers, as the peculiar position of
the resident Jews among us appears not merely to justify,
but to demand. We do not hesitate, in the meantime, to
announce our conviction that the hour is arrived, when
this unjustly stigmatised and excluded people ought to be
released from disliabilities which are a disgrace to the
Government which imposes them, and identify the most
enlightened country of the world wtih the darkest periods
and powers of barbarism. We shall certainly advocate
the emancipation of the Jews.

We see that our Contemporaries yesterday, admitted that
Letters from Madrid had announced the intention of the
•Spanish Government, to equip another expeditionary
force against Mexico. We stated this to be the fact se-
veral days before, and gave those details, on the authen-
ticity of which our readers may rely. We indeed always
take care that our information may be as remarkable for
its accuracy, as it is for its priority.

To-morrow we shall publish the Fourth Letter of
MEXICAN us, and we earnestly hope some friend to the
Fail of ABLILDEILN, and the interests and character of
the British Empire, will call to it his Lordship's most
serious attention. The whole case is so dearly put—the

arguments are so unanswerable, and the conclusions so
just—that we do not see how it is possible for the British
Government to evade any longer the adoption of one of
, the courses claimed by the writer. We feel confident,
at all events. that the British Parliament will not permit
the honour, and good faith of England, to be any longer
impeached, and so many of its most important interests

'Prejudiced by a denial of justice, and a partiality the
most unfair that ever subjected her name to reproach for
abuse of Power.

A letter will be found in another column, under the
signature of AMERICAN Us, in refutation of the slan-
derous communication pretending to come from La
Guayra, which was put forth in the columns of the
Times newspaper, and from which we copied it. Bo-
v R'S character, disposition, and fame, are ably vindi•
cated by the statements of our Correspondent, who ma-
nifestly writes with an authority, which few in this coun-
try will presume to question.

Our attention hasbeen called to some curious anomalies,
in the accidents and vicissitudes of Commerce, one or two
of which we tbiuk it will be interesting to mention.
During the first two years of the war, 1793-4, Hemp,
an article above all others likely to have been affected by
the increased demand for naval purposes, remained un-

affected thereby ; the price, exclusive of duty, having
varied from twenty-five to twenty-three, and up to twenty-
seven pounds per ton. It fluctuated greatly during the
war, and in 1808-9, it was quoted as high as one hun-
dred and eighteen pounds per ton : and again, in 1812, it
was sold at one hundred and seven pounds ten shillings
per ton. At the close of the war, Hemp commanded
about seventy-two pounds per ton, from which price it
gradually receded down to twenty-seven pounds per ton
in 1821; but, contrary to all rule and reason, and not-
withstanding that hemp is every year more and more su-
perseded by iron for ships cables, and various other pur-
poses, it has for the last three or four years commanded
from thirty-eight to forty-two pounds per ton, being
fifty to seventy shillings per cwt. above its price during
the two first years of the war, 1793-4. On the other
hand, Sugar, an article of the most universal consump-
tion, and, comparatively speaking, limited in supply, has
reached a point of depression beyond any precedent : the
Gazette of last week having been only twenty-two shil-
lings and eightpence per cwt. exclusive of duty of
twenty-seven shillings per cwt.

CITY, TwELvv. o'CLocK.

Most of the Brokers and Jobbers repaired at an early hour this
morning to the Stock Exchange, in hopes of receiving the infor-
mation in regard to the French Loan ; but were disappointed in
their expectations, as up to the present time we do not hear of the
Express baying arrived, although a report prevails that Rothschild
has got the Loan at 102 k for the Four per Cents. This Is only
report at present.
Consols opened this morning at the same price they left off yes-
terday, 9si for the Account, with little or nothing doing as yet.—
The Foreign Market is void of interest : prices nominal.
Ltvearoot., Jan. 12.—The sales of cotton yesterday, owing to
the statement io a Manchester Paper, was very brisk, and full
4,000 bags were sold at an advance of iof a penny per pound. In
another descriptions, to-day, the sales amounted to 2,500 bags, at
full prices.
The Britannia packet ship, from New York, is supposed to be
off Holyhead. She was to leave New York on the 16th ultimo.
The packet ship Camillus arrived at Greenock on Saturday af-
ternoon, in twenty days. from New York. A considerable number
of tradesmen, who lately emigrated to America, have returned
passengers in her.
Accounts from Warsaw, of the 28th Decemtter, state that the
Emperor of Russia is recovering but slowly in his health.
It appears that the intense cold weather experienced in France
has caused some disturbances to take place in the Grove of Bou-
tant. More than six hundred persons repaired there and cut
down all the trees; in consequence of which the gendarmerie of
Bourdeaux were marched there to disperse the people.

Letters from Lisboa ..ate the Minister of War had the Chief

Engineer examined in regard to the state of the maritime fortifica-
tion*, and he declared that aU the batteries were in a state of ruin,
and for the re-establishment of which it would require two mil-

lions of crusades. The old Queen has confessed, and received the
Sacrament, which is a proof of her being In a most dangerous si-
tuation.

HALF-PAST ONE.

Great anxiety continued to be experienced in the City for the
arrival of the express from Paris, with the result of the French
Loan. The cause of this delay is attributed to the road. being
bad in France. The express being to this time eighteen hours
over due.

The Consol Market, which remained steady in the early part of
the morning, at 95j for the Account, has within this hour been
very heavy, and Consols receded to 951, at present may be quoted
at 951.

In the Foreign Market little doing, as they are chiefly occupied
in settling their accounts against to-morrow, which is the Account
day in the Foreign Funds.

It is said that India Stock has got up Five per Cent. this morn•
ins; we do not hear of any news from that quarter as the cause of
this rise; it must therefore be attributed to speculations.

From the French Papers received this morning :—The Com.
meree of Cuba :—The following is a circular addressed to th
Chamber of Commerce.—" Gentlemen—The recent information

received at the Bureau of Commerce, confirms that which I had
the honour to transmit on the 4th of this month, on the situation
of the Commerce of the Havannah at the end of Sept. 1829."

It appears that the merchandise arriving from Europe cannot be
disposed of ; and they are deposited in the entrepot. It is much
to be [cued that the retail dealers, to whom time has been granted
for their payments, will not be able to fulfil them.

At Madrid the frost is very severe; the thermometer there was
ohm degrees under O.

A Correspondent of the Morning Herald says, that
there were a great variety of rumours in circulation at
the West-end of the town last night, upon the subject
of a change in the Ministry ; and although no fact was
stated to indicate an alteration having taken place, be-
yond the alleged retirement of Mr. VESEY FITZGERALD,
from the ill state of his health, yet the reports were more
general, and the belief stronger than for some time past,
that a change was likely to take place. The visit of the
Earl of ABERDEEN to Windsor, on Tuesday, for the
purpose of having an especial audience of his MAJESTY,
at the very time the " Court Circular" states his Lordship
to be present at the Council held in Downing-street, has
been much commented on, as it is known the Duke
of WELLINGTON was waiting his Lordship's return to
town, and, on his arrival, they had a long private con-
ference together. Last night the Earl of ABERDEEN
entertained a party to dinner at Argyll House, which
was confined to the Cabinet Ministers. It was rumoured
that this Cabinet dinner was a farewell one under the
present Administration. The breaking-Up of the Gods-
rich Administration has been alluded to, as having taken
place a few days before the assembling of Parliament.
Bets were making last night at some of tho Club houses
that a similar event would take place before the 4th of
next month.
