This being Settling Day at the Stock Exchange
for Consols, and a considerable depression having
taken place in the Funds since the last account, many
Brokers and Speculatcrs were expected to be declar-
ed defaulters ; hcwever, as far as we have been en-
abled to ascertain, only one Broker was proclaimed
on the occasion.

We have received Paris Papers of Sunday and
Monday, from which we subjoin copious extracts.
Frnm all that we can learn, Italy is still in an unsettled
state. The trllowing is given as a proof of the greater
confidence of the people of France in the present
Government than in that of BONAPARTE :—When

the French garrison of Corfu landed at Marseilles,
the Paymaster had not a sous with which to supply
their necessities, and he wanted 70,000 francs for pre.
sent p trposes. The inhabitants immediately sub-
scribed t,lie money, and presentedit as a voluAtary

ban to • the Paymaster. The French Journalist re-
marks. that no similar instance °centred under BONA-
PARTE'S usurpation.

Count RAPP, who figured ht the siege of Dantzic,
as Commander of the French Garrison, considering
his character attacked in a Publication, called " A

Narrative of the Siege of Dantz'c," has inserted a let,
ter in the Paris Newspapers, in which, like CAULIN-
CrTRT, I I OGENDORP, and VAN ZIAMNLE, he denies that
he was guilty of any of the cruelties charged against
him. This much-injured man promises a narrative
from his own elegant pen, which, he says, " will be
wnrhy of the grandeur of the subject !"—Monsieur
RAPP, we humbly think, would be better employed
in revisiting Dangle, and relieving the distresses of
the prior inhabitants with some of his honest gains.
