Consols which left off yesterday at $2& in the House, and R2i
in the alley for the Account, opened• this morning at 821, whit a
sprightly market, and at present may be quoted at 82} j. This
improvement may be attributed to the accounts received this morn-
ing from Vienna, in regard to the Porte ; at the same time, an Im-
pression exists in the City, that on the march of the Russians to
cross the Pruth, the Ottomans will give way, and listen to the
interference of Austria and Prussia. It I. Aso the opinion of the
well informed in the City, that the CZAR, after taking possession
of the Principalities, will not proceed further, but issue another
Nlanifesto, offering peace again, in junction with France and Eng-
land.—ln the Foreign market, Russian Bonds have also improved
this morning.

The Duke of WELLINGTON, Earl BATIIURET, Lord
acinuoitoiscm, Lord Hits, Lord Seamusso, and most of the
leading Members of the House of Lords, were present last night...-.A
'Message on the subject of Russia and the Porte was expected,
but no proceeding of public importance occurred.
The Hoot of Ccmlions did not meet, in consequt nce
of only 119 Members being present at four o'clock, when a ballet
was to take place for the Dover blection Committee, which requires
I Oct Members. The motions on the journals yesterday were of
considerable importance, especially Mr. WILMOT.HORTON'S, on
Emigration ; which, from the press of other business, it will net be
easy to discuss at the length to which it is entitled to-night, as by
tar the most important question is the second reading of the Corpo-
ration and Test Acts.

It has been confidently stated that the dispatches
received by Prince Likvers express an intention, on the
part of the Russian Government, not only to answer
the Turkish Manifesto by immediate war, but to con-
sider that war as one of its own, to be carried on by
its individual means and armies, whatever might be the
decision of its pi event Allies, or the wishes of the other
European Powers.
The Russian Proclamation, in its tone most firm and determined
to carry its übject into ultimate execution, rests, we understand,
principally (prominently rather) upon the numerous violations of
the Treaty of Akermann.
To those grievances is added, the sueceseut attempt of Turkey
to provoke the late hostilities between Russia and Persia, and to
prevent pacification ; together with the avowed intention, on the
part of the Porte, that she never meant to observe the Treaty of
Akermann !

On those grounds the war takes place: therefore no guarantee
fur the future can be admitted. The expenses of the war, it is
threatened, must ultimately come from Turkey.
The Greek Treaty is not given up, but persevered in singly or
jointly, as the two other Powers choose. The war takes place wow
upon Russian grounds—Rossian grievances : she will lay dowil her
arms when, and only when, they are redressed.

Budget has been laid before the Chamber. of iteputies
by the Minister of Finance. ' The eicess cf:expetist+4
of the year 1827 over the revenue is sated at 35,200,000.
francs. This dt ficit is to be eoveied bi a Credit ontthel

francs ; the extraordinary expenses for 1828, which y r
•
be rendered necessary, according to the situatio of
affairs in the Bast, America, or Spain, are to belr of
vided tor by the ordinary revenues of the stare.
The reports in Paris, on the departure of the Ex-
press, were all of a warlike description, and it is said
that the French Government had received advices from
Sr. Petersburgh, stating the determination of ltussia to
commence immed;ate hostilities against Turkey.
The Austrian Observer contains some remarks on the
TurkishManifesto,which it considers as a rhapsody, and
not entitled to the character of a diplomatic note, affirm-
ing that it has never been printed in Turkey—as a
proof of which, the d fferent copies sent to the Ayans of
the provinces are none of them similar. The EEIS EF-
FENDI is stated to have declared numerous passages in
this document to be either disfigured or forged.

MARCH 11.—Great fears have been entertained for
the safety of twenty fishing vessels from Schevk flinger:-
which were at sea in the late storms unhappily these
fears were well founded ; one of the vessels is totally lost;
of the osiers, seven have remixed, six have been seen since
the storm, and nothing is known of the other six, bet
it is hoped they are safe, because no articles have beta
picked up at sea, but such as belonged to the one that

The increase of crime throughout the United King•

printed by the House of Commons, that the number of
commitments for trial in England and Wales were
in 1806, 4,346 ; in 1816, 9,091; and in 18'26, that t:gl
amounted to 16,147—a progression far exceeding tblt
of the population during the same period. The bean! -

grounds for hope that the picture is changing. At I
Winchester there were more than double the usual nue-
ber of prisoners ; and four Courts were actually sitting .-.'

equally long, and comprise many offences of an aggrr
