The Sales, made by the Jew party have tended to produce a
heavy Market ; and little business is doing. Consols are steady,
and have not fluctuated since the opening of she blarket.—Fo.

Securities in which anything is doing.

We yesterday, on the authority of intelligence
brought by the REPULSI, stated the great probability
of the dispute with the Chinese being amicably set-
tled, and we have now the gratification of an-
nouncing that such has been the case. The KENT,
which left Canton on the 27th of February, twenty
days later than the RtPUL3II, brings the gratifying
intelligence, that all the differences between the Chi-
nese Government and the British Interests there
have been fully and satisfactorily arranged. The
British merchants who had repaired on board the
ships, were preparing to return to the Factory, in
order to renew the trade, which had been so unhap-
pily interrupted.

The French Papers of Monday have been received.
One of them states, on the authority of a letter from
Vienna, that advices had been received from Con-
stantinople of a pacific character, and that the Reis
Effendi had transmitted to each of the Ministers of
the Allied Powers a copy of the Order sent by the
Divan to recal the troops from Wallachia and Mol-
davia. Another account, however, says, that the ne-
gociations continue, but will not be terminated while
the Porte is continually making objections that alter
the nature of the conditions that had been promised.
After the murder of the Greek hostages, whose safety
the British Ambassador had guaranteed, we may
judge how much faith is to be put in the assurances
of the Turks; indeed, after such an act of ferocious
barbarity, we do not know what business Lord
STRANGFORD could longer have at a Court where
he and the Government he represented had received
such an insult.
The accounts from Spain in the French Papers
contradict the exaggerated statements with which
they had some days ago been filled. The insurgents
in the north of Spaia appear to be reduced to a
handful of fanatics, who still, however, continue to
commit those sanguinary excesses inseparable from
civil contests, and more peculiarly appropriate to the
desperate fortunes of the defeated faction. The friends
of the Constitution, on their part, evince an activity
and zeal proportioned to the dangers with which

Private letters have been received this morning
from Barcelona to the 15th June, which state that
the disturbances still continue in that quarter, which
prevents all communication with the interior. There
are also letters stating that 10,000 French muskets
have been seized going into Spain.

This forenoon we received a Spanish Mail. The
intelligence it brings is not of a later date than that
contained in the French Papers, but the Spanish Jour-
nals give some additional earticulars of the state of the
counts y, from which we make the following extracts:

MADRID, JUNE IE.
We have received numerous communications from
Catalonia, which relate to various events that have
taken place in some parts of that unhappy province.
They detail numerous circumstances, which give an
accurate idea of this' rebellion of some individuals
seduced by men who are unworthy of the name of
Spaniards. The audacity of these men is without
bounds, and only the arm of justice can check their
temerity. Those whom they have misled will return
to their-right. path as soon as the ohsticles
their seducers throw in their way shall be removed.
" Aboer2oo persons," says D. Ramon Gazan, Go-
yet nor of Cordova, "have accepted the amnesty, and
more than 100 stand of arms have been delivered
up to sne."
These hopes are confirmed by what is said by D.
CarreUo de Albonoz, in a letter from Berge, s-hich
relates his entrance into that town, which the rebels
had evacuated. He says, not only many of the per-
sons who had been deluded are returning to their
homes, but during the march of his troops through
the country that had been in a state of insurrection,
not a single peasant fired, nor did any town sound
the tocsin a second time, though they had been
threatened with death by the rebel banditti if they
did not do so, when the troops marched through.
Captain D. Manuel Sese, in a letter of the 2d June,
gives an account of an expedition which he made
with a battalion of Barcelona towards Poblet and
Tonnes. Notwithstanding the almost inaccessible
nature of the mountains, the troops scaled the height
with the greatest ardcur, entirely dispersing the
rebels, who had 70 killed. The trcops had only two
killed and some wounded.

A letter from Barcelona of the 6th, says that the
villages in the several districts ale forming a-socia•
tions to raise bodies of volunteers of two or three
hundred men, at their own expense, for their protec-
tion ; a most important measure, which cannot fail to
be eminently advantageous.

The Duke of GLoucerrita left town yesterday, on
a visit to Mr. Gluts, at his seat in Hertfordshire.
His Grace the Duke-of WELLINGTON gave a grand
dinner at Apsley House, on Tuesday evening, when
the military band was stationed on the lawn, in full
costume. The banquet was given in the new dining.
room. At half-past seven the Portuguese service of
plate was displayed on the table and four sideboards.
The number of covers was twenty-eight. At ten
o'clock the drawing zooms were illuminated.
The following extract from the Ceylon Garth. of February 2,
1822, is contained in a letter which reached town yesterday :
" We have the pleasure to announce the safe arrival last even-
ing in our roads of his Majesty's frigate GLASGOW, commanded
by Captain BENTINCR C. Doris. having o I board his Exceb
lency the Honourable Sir EDWARD PAGET, 6. C.B. Gover-

Term ended yesterday. It has neither been inte-
resting to the Public, nor, we believe, very fruitful
to the lawyers, and certainly most unprofitable to a
large majority of their clients.
The carriage and harness of an Illusttious Pep.
sonage, which were detained at the last Court day,
were yesterday sold : the carriage for 4;95, and the
harness for £4. The horses, it is said, were redeemed.

taken for her within the Rules.
