Governor bf that town, and to Count Hoorn, from which
it would appear, that that unfortunate victim of the Duke
of Alba took a much more active part in our revolution
than is usually supposed.

ALTONA, AUG. JO.

In consequence of an order of his Majesty the King of
Denmark, several Councillors, forming a commission of
inquiry, have arrived to investigate the cause of the late
disturbances. There are also arrived 260 men of the
Queen's Regiment of Foot, and 2,00 Dragoons of Holstein.

FRANKFORT, AUG. 13.
We hear that the manufacturers of the Netherlands have
already sent. large orders for the purchase of wool at our
next fair.

1 The w
ieim, a workmen employed in digging a canal near Born-
place belonging to Frankfort, discovered the
foundations of a Roman edifice, in which they found coins
and various interesting articles of antiquity, such as vases,
tables, utensils, &c.
The washing of the sand of the Rhine for grains of gold,
produced from July 1, 1826 to July 1, 1827, the value of
9437 florins of, that metal.

Mr. CANNING'S Will will be found in another
part of our paper—the effects are sworn under
twenty thousand pounds—a poor saving, indeed,
for the Prime Minister of England, after thirty
years' labour in the service of his country ! What
will the revilers of the Illustrious Statesman say
to this ample fortune which he was charged
to have amassed out of the public money ? It
is unfortunately the inheritance of genius to die
poor--and whether it be his fate to adorn
the Republic of letters, or to wield the Destinies
of an empire, the man of true genius, always re-
tataless of self in his enthusiasm for the public
good, generally finds his reward in the ingrati-
tude of his countrymen, till the hand of death
awakens them too late to their loss—

" The cypress binds his burning brow,
Till death the laurel crown bestow."
,But it was the happier fate of Mr. CANNING to
vviu the applause •of the greater portion of his
countrymen, and his fame in literature and
eloquence secured him the admiration of all,
while his, manly policy provoked the hostility
only of those who could find no echo in the
public voice to support their sinister views.—
It is indeed melancholy to think, that, after a
life devoted to the public service, such- a man as
Mr. CANNING should descend to the grave
comparatively poor,---but he is not singular in
this respect---PITT and Fox and SHERIDAN can
testify that riches are not always the concomi-
tants of greatness or the reward of public virtue.
Such minds look beyond the desire of ordinary
mortals,--and in their longings after immortality
are too apt to forget the present purpose that the
future may be accomplished.
It gives us great pleasure to observe by a meet-
ing which took place at Liverpool, that a public
mark of gratitude is to be paid to Mr. CA.}cnic's
memory by the erection of a column similar
to those erected at Edinburgh and elsewhere to
Lords NELSON and MELVILLE. Such tokens
of regard are alike honourable to the character
of the Statesman, and the good sense and dis-
cernment of his countrymen.

Tha Allgenutine Zeitung .of the 16th inst.
has also reached us this forenoon. The article
from:Bucharest, which we have given with other
extracts, confirms our expectation that a few days
only can elapse before we shall learn the recep-
tion which the Treaty in behalf of Greece has
met with from the Divan.

VIENNA, AUG. 9.
The Marquis of Hertford left this city on the 7th. His
Excellency is gone to Florence.

BUCHAREST, .
We expect with impatience the next post fromJuLY•29 Constan-
tinople, because we may probably learn from it what im-
pression has been made on the Divan by the sailing of the
Russian Beet from Cronstadt, and by the treaty between
England, Russia, and France, which is now known. So
far as we can infer from the latest accounts the Porte will
resist it, and it may even be feared that the national resent-
ment of the Alussulmen may manifest itself in some manner
or other.

THE FUNDS-(THIS DAY).

CITY, T►VSLTE o'Ctocr.

The English Funds had this morning the appear-
ance of being extremely depressed, and there were
not wanting persons who were ready to predict a
still further fall in Consols, which certainly had a
heavy look ; they opened at 871 1, declined to 871
; at this price the market took a turn, and some
considerable business was done at higher prices, the
fate having advanced to 871 for money and ac-
count, and 871 8 for October; the quantity of money
Stock has been less considerable than for some
days. Both India Bonds and. Exchequer_Bills are
lower, the former having gone back to 89 91, the
latter to 57 8 pm.

The only business which has been effected in the
Foreign. Funds has been in Mexican Bonds, in which
some transactions have taken place at 67 I ; Co-
lombian are 30}; there has been a small decline in
Brazilian and Danish Stock ; the latter are 63/, the
former 66/

The only variation in Shares is in Brazilian Mines,
which have gone down about one per cent. in the
premium. Every other speculation remains in its
former state, and nothing doing.

Three per Cent. Consols, 874 1 ; Ditto for October,

QUARTER TO Two 6' CLOCK.

• This moment a great panic in the Consols; 'they
have fallen nearly one per cent., caused by an Express
from Paris, to a Mr. Wood. The news not known
as yet.—Consols 86i i.

Two o' CLocr.

Cola°ls gave way and receded to 87/ ; again
recovered to 871 I for account,being nearer the latter
price, when in an instant they fell to 87 and have
been as low as 86 for for account, and 87 for Oct. ;
the prominent cause of the decline is said to arise
from an express from Paris, with a fall in the French
Funds of 2 per cent. Bad news from Turkey. Don
MIGUEL has passed through France on his route
to Spain. The whole may be without the least.
cause; but the market is rotten.

THREE 0' CL 0 CE.

The consternation on 'Change has been great,
but no cause for the fall can be given. Consols
have been under 86f, but are recovering, and are
86 for account.

HALF-PAST THREE.

An Express has just arrived with the French
Funds of Tuesday evening, which contradicts the
reported fall of 2 per cent. The price was Five
per Cent. 104 f. 20c.;
,Three per Cent. 73f. 35c.;
Exchange for money, 25f. 15c.

A Cabinet Council has assembled this after-
noon, and is now sitting.

The wheat harvest has commenced rather
generally in the neighbourhood of Clontnel, under the
moat encouraging auspices. --Irishman.

We understand a gentleman its this neighbour-
hood carried a large field of corn one day, had it thrashed
out the next, and sold it at our market on the following
day.—Brighton Gazette.

The only shearing we have heard of in this
vicinity has been Barley ; several fields of which have been
cut down in this neighbourhood. Barley harvest will be
general in ten days. Early Oats will be ready for the sickle
in a fortnight ; and Wheat about the same time. Pota-
toes on rich soils would be a large crop, were it not for
the curl with which almost every field is more or less in-
fected. On poor soils the crop will be indifferent.— Glas-
gow Chronicle.

CHICHESTER.-1 he harvest in this imme-
diate neighbourhood is drawing to a close; several farmers
have entirely finished, and the pleasing sight of the well-
thatched wheat ricks may be seen in all directions. Turnip
hoeing is going on busily, and ,a finer crop was never wit-
nessed in this part of the country. The meadow lands,
notwithstanding the fine rains we have lately had, do not
throw up aftermath, as might have been expected : they
have not recovered the check occasioned by the late con-
tinued hot weather.--Brighton Paper.

The showers since our last have materially re-
tarded the harvest, though we hope they have not pro-
duced much mischief, as they have certainly been partial ;
in the Weald we have beard of a few sprouted ears of
wheat, but we believe there are not many to be found.
The Barley is certainly not hurt in any situation
tion that we have heard of ; but the rain in some parts of
this county has been so heavy, that the farmers have been
obliged to take some wheat stacks to pieces again, that had
not been thatched.—Brighton Paper.

Harvest will be general by the end of the
week, and in a wide circuit around this town, both shearers
and binders are already busy in many a field. Though
we had no regular hiring market yesterday morning, it is.
more than' probable there will be one to-morrow, and
wages, we understand, are expected to be at least Is. 6d.
per day. In some places the wheat has suffered consider-
ably from mildew, and we have even heard that the oats
show symptoms of the same disease ; but the crops on the
other hand are every where so heavy that nothing but warm
dry weather is wanted to render the harvest most abun-
dant. From the great quantity of rain that fell last week
a good deal of grain was lodged ; but the fine breezes of
Friday and Saturday repaired the mischief to a great es-.
tent. What we have most to complain of is, the continued
deficiency of solar heat ; the thermometer in the shade
rarely .rises to 60 degrees, and unless September be warm
and dry, harvest labour will be liable to serious interrup-.
tions.--Dumfries Courier.

CONVERSIONS.--On Sunday last, two very
intelligent and rather respectable persons, abjured the Pro-
testant religion in the Chapel of Nocnicashel, county Kerry,
in the presence of a numerous congregation.—Dublin
Morning Register.

An engagement, and we believe an extensive
one, has lately been concluded between Mr. PiticE, and Mr.
Ilistior, the Musical Composer, by which the latter is en-
gaged to compose Operas, and to have the entire direction
of the Music for Drury-lane Theatre.
_ _ -

The following Performers are engaged by Mr.
Wemyss for the Philadelphia Theatre, and will sail from
Liverpool early in September :—Mr. and Mrs. Sloman, of
Covent-garden ; Mr. and Mrs. Rowbotham, of the Coburg ;
Mr. Southwell, and Mr. and Mrs. Mercer, of Drury-lane ;
Mr. S. Chapman, of the English Opera House ; Miss
Emery, of the Surrey; Mrs. Austin, of Drury-lane; and
Air. Hutchings, of tho York Theatre.
Last week a numerous meeting of the flax-
dressers in the town took place in the 'West Links, for the
purpose of snaking a strike (as is the phrase of the day), in
order to obtain, what they no doubt stand in need of, a
little advance of wages for their labour. Some have re-
sumed their employment at the former prices, being satis-
fied that the masters are not enabled to raise the wages ; 2
few others who have stood out, have received from " a
general fund" nearly 6s. per week, for preferring to go
idle rather than accept the wages offered. Flax-dressers
are by no means scarce, as flax comes regularly from the
mill-spinners in Dundee, is dressed in the town, and re-
turned..,Edinblergh Obierver.
