[Morning Post.]

Notwithstanding rite silence of. the Paris Papers
upon the subject of the reported change of Mi-
nistry, the fact continues to be stated in private
letters. Whether these statements be correct or
not, we cannot at present pretend to decide ; but
admitting them for a moment to have some foun-
dation, it is evident that the Ministers, if they
have really tendered their resignation, must still
retain a great share of influence at least to be
able to silence the press. We shall reserve every
othei observation until we hear further upon the
subject.—lt was yesterday confidently stated in
the City, that two Gentlemen had arrived from
Paris, which place they left on Sunday morning.
They were said to have brought advice, that the
greatest agitation prevailed in the public mind,
and that several English families, who had ar-
ranged to remain in France during the winter
season, hall determined upon quitting, and were
disposing of their property, at a great loss, for
that purpose ; many that had no incumbrance
had already taken their departure, and every
thing wore the most gloomy appearance. Not-
withstanding this unsettled state of politics,
every nerve had been strained to secure public
confidence, .and in some measure with success, for
an express was received in town yesterday, which
left Paris on AlOnday, with intelligence that the
Five per Cents, had on that day risen two per
Cent., several bargains having been done at 65
francs.

Advices from Cadiz to the 10th inst. and from
Madrid. to the 17th inst. have been recei►ved.—
The latter confirm our former accounts of the
perfect tranquillity of the capital. By the tormer
we learn that the exertions to promote the sail-
ing of the expedition are greater than ever ; and
that the Spanish Government has actually en-
gaged persons to victual the ships. The indivi-
duals who have obtained the contract are two
members connected very intimately with the Ca-
binet of Madrid. They have sent out agents to
the United States for the purpose of purchasing
flour and other provisions.—(lbid.)

THE QUEEN'S WILL—The will still remains in
the hands of Sir JOHN NICHOLL. The personal
property exceeds expectation. The moveables in
Windsor Castle, at Frogmore, and the Queen's
Palace, will be collected together in the course
of the present week, when tire schedule will be
corn plet ed.—(lbid.)

Puonasm.—Yestertlay the amateurs of the fistic
art were highly gratified by a set-to for 10 guineas
aside between Bob Brady, of milling celebrity,
and a man of the name of William Blewey. The
combatants met at one o'clock in the field behind
the Jew's Harp, Mary-le-bone. where an immense
Concourse of people were assembled, amongst
whom were several amateurs ofdistinction. Blewey
at the commencement was the favourite ; but the
science of Brady prevailed, after a good stand-up
fight of 50 minutes, during which 22 desperate
rounds were fought. A determination was ex-
pressed to back the victor for 100 guineas against
any one iqt England of his weight.
