FRANKFORT. NOVEMBER 17.

Oar Trilmnals have frequently rejected (as founded I
44 usury) complaints of the non-delivery of Public
S:eurity, sold at a certain exchange for a future date.
The ease with which, such bargains are made, as the
:.:eculaturs make no teal sale and purchase, bat
merely settle the differeoce on the day appointed, is
very tempting, and many (especially Christian) houses
have been ruined. It is therefore expected that a
Project of Law will be presented to our Legislative
Body, declaring all such sales of Public, Securities,
witlumt real funds, to be legally null and void: and
t'iclaring that nobody shall be bound to fulfil any
o2,a,gement of this nature.

This forenoon we received Tulin Papers to the
inst. The following are extracts:

It was not till the 25th ult. that the Bey was fully
"''stinted with the plot of which he had bad notice
'sonic months before, the object of which was to over-
,ll-n the present Government, by the death of all the
Princes of the reigning family. At the head of the
conspiracy was the High Trcasuasr of the Regency.
It was to have been carried into execution on the 31st
of October. The President was to be chosen _Pasha,

ALGIERS, OCTOBER ea;
There is no mention of the plague, and the Pro-
vinces of Bona and Oavano likewise enjcsy a good
state of, health.

According to tbe French Papers, the decisions of
Congress will be made known in the beginning of
December; but the declaration, if one be made in
common, will be drawn' p in terms so vague as to
present no solution. if The difficulty," slips the
Constitutionnel," appears to be, how-to give it a form
suitable to all the Powers. It may, indeed, be con-
ceived that the menacing language which our Ca-
binet would employ may not be equally adapted to
the political considerations ofanother: that France,for
example, may wish to go farther than England ; and
that Austria may not be disposed to go so far as Rus-
sia. It is therefore supposed that the matter will be
adjusted by each Power making a separate declaration
relative to Spain and the form of her Government."

An extraordinary COrrespondent of the Augsburg
Gazette pretends that M. Dg • CIIA TRAIIBRIAND has
somewhat astonished the Diplomatists at Verona,
by endeavouring to impose his opinions upon them,
especially as from his personal situation he had no
right to form a part of the Congress, he being no
Minister. His propositions, it is said, have been ge-
nerally, rejected. It seems, however, that the Noble
Peer of France had at• least succeeded in exciting
some doubts in the minds of the Sovereigns, and that
he has contributed to fortify the Emperor of RttsatA
and Prince NlirrattNicit in their previous disposi-
tion for a war against Spain. But the Duke of WEL-
um:Tow is said to have cooled these warlike ardours,
and to have surprised the Congress by talking to
11111- ein of Charters and Constitutions,

A letter from La Gain, dated the 4th of October,
states the Colombian squadron, arrived there from
Maracaibo, had captured a vessel &on Porto Rico to
Porto Cabello, with a cargo valued at 63,000 dollars,
and afterwards destroyed her.

The Duke and Duchess of MONTROSE and family
arrived on Wednesday at their house in Grosvenor-
spare, from their seat in Scotland.
Yesterday the infant son of the LORD MAYOR was
christen at the Mansion-House, when his Royal
Highness the Duke of YORK was one of the sponsors.
His-Royal Highness arrived about ten minutes before
six, and was preceded by the Bishop cf LONDON, who
performed the ceremony of baptism. Lord SI nbroung,
the Sheriffs, and a select circle of the LORD MAYOR'S
family and friends were present, and partook of an
elegant dinner, which was served up at seven o'clock.
The late Spanish Ambassador at the Court of
France, FERNANDEZ NuNrz, died at Paris on Tues•
day night. His Excellency had lately been employed-
as Envoy of the Duchess of LUCCA, the sister of King
FERDINAND.
Mr. Hut., Superintendant of the School for the
Indigent Blind, in St. George's Fields, was found

ELW?los.—The Chester Chreniele of Thursday
says, Mr. Patna* has resigned the contest for the County of
Salop, in favour of Mr. LLOYD, of Aston.
DeuRY-LAItainBATRE.—The performance of last
night produeedin overflow. There was the same
anxiety on the part of the Public as was manifested
-at the Tragedy of OMello, and the same exertion on
the part of the two Tragic Heroes to reward that
anxiety. OrwAY's masterpiece- .of Venice Preserved
was the Play ; Mr. Young was the. Pierre, and Mr.
Kai[ the leer. Pierre: .with ell 'his faults, is a
'posierfUl dramatic charatter ; with all his.
love, cuts but a sorry figure so far as his-laqiOns and
principles are concerned, but the sittiatiolain which
he is placed, and the poetical language 'in-which his
'sentiments are clothed, Afford a great actor an op-
portunity not only of saving him from conteriio,tut
even of raising him into importance. We need
scarcely say that this was effected by Mr. KRAN.
Mr. YOuNG'S Pierre always struck us as a bold and
manly performance. The repetition of last night was
well calculated to confirm this opinion, for it abounded
in spirit and energy. His first scenes with Jaffer wet e
well managed, and his taunting both of the Con-
spirators and the Senate were admirable. He was
also particularly impressive in the reproach of Jefler'.•
treachery. Mr. KEAN'S Jilffief was .a fine effort of
the art. He contrived to keep the baseness of the
character out of view by the force with which he de-
picted its agonies. Nothing could be more solemn
than the manner in which he delivered the oath ; but
it is unnecessary to particularise further respecting
efforts so well known. Mrs. WEST, in the character,
of Belvidera, exerted herself with considerable effect,
and wits deserv,edly applauded inall the seenes. The
whole went off with the spirit that. might be expected.
Covesx-GattozN.--The Tragedy of Rossee and
Juliet was performed at this Theatre, and we were
happy to observe that Miss F. H. KX.LLY continues,
her attractioE, notwithstanding the great exertions
and splendidvalents so actively employed at the other
House. To accOmplish this in supporting but one
character, after so many repetitions, can Only be the
work of genius. Many fnither repetitions are likely,
to take place, if We ma, judge from the success of the,
effort up to this moment ; so that there can realain,
'.lno doubt of her betorning a la.iciag favourite with
Ihe.lovers tlf the 'Dramas

same countrymen, who jocularly asked the soldiers
lo enlist them, and while in conversation the owner
of the farm desired them to be gone, or he would
shoot them. They, being on the public road, laughed
at him, on which he discharged a pistol, which carried
away the lower part of the abdomen, of the unfor-
tanate drummer, who immediately comrade
exclaimed--t You've shot the man!" The farmer
replied .1)-;.-n,you,..111 shoot you!" and instantly

PEDESTRIAN MATCH AGAINST TIME.

Wright, the celebrated Yorkshire Pedestriin, who.started oti
Wednesslay from the Crown and. Barley Mow, Gray's Inn-lanai
to perform a match to Baldock and back, being a distance el
seventy-five miles, for three successive days, had yesterday per-.
formed his undertaking precisely is follows :
First Day.—He started at twelve o'clock, and arrived it did
White Hart, Stevenage, being a distance of thirty-one miles rod
a half, at half.past seven o'clock, and proceeded on to the White
Lion, Baldock (the extent of his journey),being six miles more,
where he made by half-past nine, and immediately returned to
Stevenage, where he got a link before eleven. He soon after-
wards weut to bed, and slept until three o'clock; at balf-pat
three he started towards Town, where he arrived on Thursday
at forty minutes after ten o'clodk.
Second Day.—He started at a quarter past twelve o'clock, and
arrived at Stevenage exactly at a quarter past eight o'clock in the
evening, completely drenched with rain. He then immediately
stripped off his wet clothes, took refreshment, and went to bed,
and slept until one yesterday morning ; he then proceeded to
&block, old-arrived there at half-past two o'clock. The land-
lord having gone to bed, Wright called him up, refreshed him-
self, and instantly commenced hii return to town. lie arrived
at Stevenage at four o'clock ; here he stopped ten minutes, and.
got to Barnet five minutes before nine; he took breakfast, and
intended to stop there three quarters of an hour, but, on some
friends arriving from town, he found himself half an hour out in
his calculation of time, and, after stopping 20 minutes, he pro-
ceeded on his journey ; be was greeted by a numerous assem-
blage of spectators at the Barley-Mow yesterday, 25 minutes
before 12 o'clock. He started off, after taking a comfortable
dinner of beefsteaks, at 35 minutes past twelve o'clock, amidst
the same acclamations which greeted his arrival.
When Wright found by his friends, yesterday mornieg, that
he had missed his time, he began to hurry himself between Bar-
net and TOWN and thereby strained his right thigh, which made
him come limping in. Rot notwithstanding his backers and
friends seem certain of his success, as well as persons in generals
as the betting, which was 5 to 2 against him at starting, is now
become, leaving out his lameness and the badness of the weather,
from such great odds to even ; indeed, amongst the r,umeroul
assemblage of betting men yesterday at the Barley Mow, there
was not one who would stake a shilling, even betting, »gainst
him; nor were there but a few trifling bets made at ail, and
those in hie favotir.• He is a strong bony man, 58 years of
