A German Mail, with Frankfort Papers to the 2d
instant, and other Journals to a late date, reached us
this forenoon. The Austrian Observer of the 26th of
January contradicts the statement in some of the Ger-
man Papers, of the Emperor of AUSTRIA having or-
dered the fugitives from Moldavia and Wallachia 'to
quit the Austrian dominions within eight days. The
order, it states, was, that they should" either return
to their homes within a certain time, or to fix their
abode in some other place in the interior of the Mo-
narchy, to be chosen by themselves."

It is further asserted, what no person will believe,
that these fugitives might return how without having
, a hair of their heads touched.

This Journalist talks of exaggerated accounts from
Constantinople, but says it is resolved 4. to renounce.
for the future the ungrateful task of correcting and
contradicting such reports, unless they affect the ilk-
terest. or the dignity of the Austrian Monarchy:!—
We wish this Journalist .would also renounce the
triumphs, of.the Turks and the defeats of the Greeks,
which be is: ciMittintly fabricating: but it is absurd
to expect.ihe truth from the enslaved Press of Austria.
The AiestrievObsever, of the 26t1t, contains a
translation, Trims the- Moniteur of the 16th, of the
original Austrian Note, dated Verona, and promises
those of Russia and- Prtissia. That Journal has no
farther news 'from Constantinople or Greece.
It is affirmed that the Duchy of Navarre has with.
drawn from the association of Darmstadt, and it is
supposed the Electorate of Hesse will do the same.
The French Consul-General, on his arrival at Bu-
dlarest, was received with great respect by the Prince.
According to reports which continue to circulate
at Belgrade, the execution of the powerful *Pacha
of Adrianople seems to be confirmed. He is raid to
Iliave stood on his defence, and fell after three days
combat in -his Palace at Adrianople. On the other
band, DACHRLAL PACHA, the successor of CHOTJRS-
, CHM, is said to have ended his life by poison, and
i to be succeeded by ABDALLAH, Pacha of Salonicbi.
!cis affirmed, that the former was removed from his
kPachalic for the express purpose of getting rid Cairn.

The French Papers of Wednesday contain the Ad-
dress of the Chamber of Peers to the Speech which
the poor misguided Monarch was compelled by the
Ultras to make on the opening of the Parliament.--
This Address is a mere echo of-the Speech; it thanks
his MaJerry for acting in concert with the POPE to-
increase the French Priesthood, and for calling to
arms a hundred thousand Frenchmen, for the purpose
of murdering the unoffending Spaniards! But the
Addressers are quite delighted to find that this army
is to.be,commanded by Prince a Prince,"
says the Address, " of your family, of that august
.4Mily always prodigal of its blood, when the cause
i; its glory and our's. Such an army was worthy of
111'64 C: a Chief a-Prince of tried valour !"

This Addiess to the KING. was, .as we stated yester-
day, carried by a majority of 90 to 53—a strong'
proof that the war is by no means so popular as the.
BOURBONS represent it. The Amendment WhiCh'ivita
proposed by Baron BARES TE was in the following
terms:

" We seize with ardour the last hope that your Majesty seems
yet to entertain of the preservation of peace. We are assured
that Ova warmest desire of your psteinal heart would be to save
your People from the calantities of a war which might endanger
the dearest interests of the country, and compromise the sacred
principle of national independence, on which repose the honour
and security of the Throne."
TALLEYRAND, the Dukes of BROGLIE and DAL-
BERG, and the Count MOLE, Peers of France, had
inscribed their names to speak against the Address in
answer to the Speech from the Crown, but almost
immediate termination of the discussion hindered
these Peers from delivering their speeches.
An article from Madrid states, that the Prussian
Consul at Seville has resigned his office; in a letter,
in which he reproaches his Sovereign as a King,
" who so far from fulfilling his promises to give the
nation a Constitution agreeable to the knowledge of
the age, scandalously forgets his words, and the he-
roical sacrifices made by his subjects to restore to his
Crown the lustre which was tarnished by the war,
and who aspires, by means foreign to the rights. of
nations, to diminish the glory of the Spaniards, whci
confide in the word of their King, solemnly and spon-1
taneously given."
We wish every Prussian would reecho this senti-
ment: that it should be the very first lesson they teach
their children, and that the very starlings and parrots
of Berlin should be taught to remind the King of
PRUSSIA of his violated promises to his subjects.
It appears from an article in the Hamburgh Papers
that the Holy Alliance, true to the principles - on.
which it is founded, has been endeavouriag to per-
ivade the Kings of WIRY/SUMO and BAVARIA to
put down the Press in their States, and to put an end-
dto the publicity of the debates in their respective L-
egislatures. This proposal is said to have been rejected.

Private letters from Paris. of Thursday have been
received this forenoon, by !ripen. They state the
chagrin of the Ultras, on receiving the Kt get Speech
and the proceedings in our Parliament, 'which were
so different from what was expected. The Funds
fell immediately to 801. 65c. and afterwards experi-
enced another decline of one per cent. Same of the
Ultras had become quite furious, but the greatest por-
tion of them could not conceal their disappointment
at finding that the unprincipled conduct of France
was so strongly reprobated in this country.

From the proceedings last night in Parliament, it
will be seen that the New Marriage Act, that super-
lative model of legislative wisdom, is to be altered ;
but now that its retrospective object, for which it
was passed, has been obtained, why not repeal it
altogether? This would be much better than, by re-
moving one evil creating a dozen, and such was
the case with the Marriage Act. A Petition was
presented to the House of Lords, from the Dean and
Chapter of LITCHFIELD, praying for the repeal of the
Act, and grounding their prayer on this pithy state-
ment, viz.—that since the passing of the Act, xo
marriage, escept by license, had taken place in any
of the seventy-two parishes contained within the dio-
cese of Litchfield!

The frequent interviews between . Mr. CANNING
and the Spanish Ambassador, has given rise to a re-
port that they are modifying the -Spanish Constitu-
tion, and that when they have made such alterations
as they agree upon, it will be presented to the French
Government ; and that, if they do not recognise it,
England will act in concert with the Spaniards. In
answer to this report, which prevails in the City, it is
only necessary to observe, that whatever errors there
may be in the Spanish Constitution.(and it is not free
from them), we have no more right to alter it than
the French. To the Spaniards alone it belongs to
decide how they will be governed.

Yesterday the Spatasn Mitnrrait transacted bitsi-

Thursday the Lords of the Council assembled at
the Council Chamber, Whitehall. The Meeting was
attended by Mr. Secretary PEEL, Lord Srowatt.,
Sir JOHN Mown., Lord G. Basizstonn, &c. The
subject under discussion wits an appeal from the Island
of Jersey, as to the right of voting for the Council,
which has been a considerable time in dispute, and
has been several times in discussion before their Lord- .
ships. The Lon PnEstantrr 'dr the'Cottwott. was'
