The Market has looked rather heavy for two or i
three days back, although some forced attempts have
been made to brighten the prospect by the Bulls. We
have frequently heard of Black Monday, but from
the great demand for Cash on Friday se'nnight and
also last Friday, and next Friday being Settling Day,
we anticipate that the application will be transferred
to Black Friday. There has been a fluctuation of
Three per Cent. during the present Account, and as
Friday approaches the Bulls appear electrified and
the Bears terrified at the terrific Black Board dis-
played in the Stock Exchange, with the names of
those who z...addlc. It is a well-known fist, that
numbers of persons have carried over their accounts
from Friday to Friday, paying a great difference for
the continuation ; but the final settlement must take

place on Friday next, and from the connections some
of the great failures of late have with the House,
some Masco:4es to a large amount are expected to be
declared.. The Consols this morning began at 761,
went to and appeared at twelve o'clock to be sta-
tionary at that price.

A Dutch Mail arrived last night, also' Harnburgh
Papers; and this morning 111.iils arrived from Flan-
ders, Lisbrin, and the Brazils, but their contents, ge-
nerally speaking, are of little importance.

According to the account published by the Russian'
Synod, which includes only these who profess the
Greek Religion, there were born hi the Russian Em-
pire, in 1816, 763,063 males, and 592,513 females--
together, 1,457,606 children. The number of deaths
was 418,0124 male. and 402,359 females--together,
520,383 deaths. The greatest mortality was among
children under ten years of age, and next among per-
sons from sixty to sixty-five years of age. In the
Exantat of Penco, one man attained the age of be-
tween 135 and 140. The number of marriages was
329,683.

The Persian Ambassador, now on his way to Eng-
land, made his public entrance into Vienna with all
the splendour of oriental pomp and ceremony. How
will his Excellency IIERT A. ABDUL lIA siIAN CIIA RO
be astonished at the little ceremony he gill find in
the West!

The birth-day of the Emperor of Russt A the 54th
December, was observed at Mittau with a ceremony
of an uncommon kind. The Constitution confirmed
by the Emperor, which gives freedom to the peasants
of Courland and determines their future situation,
was read Itranslated into the Livonian language) in
all the churches.

The State Gazette of Prussia announces, in contra-
diction to a paragraph in some foreign Journal, which
had stated the expense of the Military Establishment
at 33 millions of dollars, that the real charge is only
e 2 millions.

The Paris Papers of Thursday arrived yesterday,
but their contents are unimportant. The health of.
the KING is stated to be daily improving. Her Royal
Highness the Duchess of 13ktHY has not gone abroad!
for eight days, owing, it is understood, to " an event
at which every Frenchman ought to be overwhelmed
with joy, and which will soon be officially notified.
The Chamber of Peers were to have a public meet-
ing on Thursday, for the purpose of receiving
communication from Ministers.

A private letter from Paris mentions, that the Mi-
nistry have resolved to keep no further measures
with the Ultra Royalists ; and that the majority,
small as it was, which enabled Government to pass
the law on the financial year, was the consequence of
a declaration to the above effect, announced by the
Keeper of the Seals, in his speech; the left side, or
party of the Liberec:, immediately uniting them-
selves to Ministers. M. LAINa was reckoned amongst
the minority on that question.

PRIVATE LETTER.
" PARIS, FEBRUARY tit.

" The recal of Count ST. JEAN D'ANGELY is a'
proof that the Government is getting weary of the
system of exile and proscriptions which present a
frightful anomaly in what is wished to be considered
a.Representative Government, the elements of which
are but very imperfectly un2erstood, and still less
practised, in France. How, in fact, can we assimi-1
late Despotism and a Representative Government?
We know of no points of re-union, of nothing homo-
genial in their composition. In the former, the will
of the Monarch binds the law—in the latter, the law
binds the will of the Monarch. A King of England
is the First Magistrate of the Land, rendered power.
ful by the law, which extends its influence equally
over the cottage and the throne. To do so, to main-
tain justice, to assert the rights of the people and up,
,hold the dignity of the nation, a King of England is

omnipotent; and it is only when he would do wrong
and commit injustice that he is /Peak and powerless,
for the law is then to punish its infraction in the per-
son of its first Magistrate. So that, strictly speak-
ing, the Law is the real Sovereign of England, and
the King and the two Houses of Parliament its Mi-
nisters; of which the former is the Royal President,
with peculiar privileges attached to the office. It is
thus that, when these three 111itnisters are in unison,
they can command the lives and fortunes of the na-
tion; nay, such is the feeling in the delightful empire
of the laws, that the real strength of the nation is
willingly and spontaneously offered, whenever there
is a necessity of exerting it. Let us but quote one
example :—ln 1815, the Lords and Commons refused
to augment the income of the Duke of CUMBERLAND
on his marriage, on the pretext that the nation was
too heavily butthened already. The next day, the
Minister, who could not carry a vote of £6OOO per
annum for a private purpose, moved for the grant of
' a loan to carry on the war against NAPOLEON ; and
this nation, so poor, so distressed, and so feeble, that
it could not a few hours before grant £6OOO, readily
votes thirty-six millions sterling !—Such are the ge-
neral effects of a really Representative Government,
and such the power of the three grand Ministers of
the Law; or, in a word, such is the power Of a King
of England, reigning over fifteen millions of a free
people. Let us now look at a King of France.
" What is his real position?—His power is greater
than that of the law, which he can suspend or modify
at his pleasure by his Royal Ordinance. Id vain the
Chambers may make laws, his Majesty can break
them with impunity, and there is no counterbalance
of power that can prevent it. An ordinance is to a
law what a paralytic svroke is to the human body ; it
destroys the functions of the part it affects, and anni-
hilates all its vital powers. Under the reign of or-
dinances, the King's pleasure usurps the place of
laws, and every thing is obtained by favour and in-
trigue. Hence the proverb, les absens rout toujours
tort; for if a General were absent from Court, or had
not a mistress to plead for him, neither the known
talents of a CoNue nor a TVRPtiNE would avail
against the intrigues of those present. A King of
France may be compared to a capricious mistress, on
whose smile or frown depends the honour or disgrace
of her dependent lovers. A King of France is of-
fended, justly or unjustly, with a person—he orders,
not merely to withdraw from his pretence, hut to go
and remain at such a place in the country, until he
receives fresh orders and the man whom but now
the King's favour rendered so insolent, sneaks away
like a coward, hissed and laughed at by those who
trembled at his ncA, until another caprice restores his
honour, by restoring him to favour.

" What would, we will not say an English Noble-
man,. but an English Gentleman, nay, an English
T►adesman, or even an English Artizan, say, if the
King of England were to give him such an order?
He would probably laugh in his Majesty's face, and
snap his fingers at his royal mandate.
Thus, then, a King of France is greater than a
King of England; he can change the laws at plea-
sure—that is, he can render them null by his ordi-
:lance—he can disgrace any member of the body
politic and social, without any form of law or the
sentence of a tribunal. He can not only pardon cri-
minals condemned by the law, but he can prevent
their being brought to trial ; nay, if a Minister spends
unlawfully thirty or forty millions, a King of France
can screen him from prosecution. How powerful,
then, must be a King of France! But would he call
forth the sinews of the nation, its blood and treasure,
then he is weak. Does he want the public confidence,
it is not readily obtained, and at last but imperfectly.
No one will buy an estate, unless the title be clear and
indisputable; no one will part with his money, unless
the advantages be superior to the risk ; no man will
lend it at common interest, when the faith of the
borrower is not intact: hence, where the security is
not established on known, clear, and permanent bases,
lenders are few, and interest high; hence, in a word,
the solution of the problem of the low ebb of public
credit and the state of the French Funds. Let but
once the empire of the laws commence—let the Na-
tion be convinced of the good faith of the Govern-
ment, and the impossibility of its ever violating Owl
laws—let, in fact, arbitrary power disappear—let not
a shadovi of it remain—and France will rise from her
slumber like a giant refreshed."

Three of those inhuman robbers, whose prey is,
their cove species, were tried and found guilty at the
Old Bailey, on Saturday, for having carried of near
a hundred Africans from Mozambique, to be sold as
slaves in the Mauritius. Their sentence is three
years' imprisonment in the House of Correction, with
hard labour. We do not apply our observations to
this particular case, but we would ask whether such
a punishment, for such a complication of horrid
crimes, be not shamefully lenient? What is the of-
fence of the slave trader? He is a thief ;—a human
creature is the object of his unnatural rapacity, and
to this he superadds the crime of murder ! Is it strange,
that persons who resist the enactment of severe pu-
nishments against these inhuman depredators, should
yet cling to the power of lawfully strangling the fa-
mished or vicious wretch who defrauds the Bank of
England or the public, by yielding to the temptation
of imitating a clumsily-engraved and intrinsically
valueless piece of paper. We hang a was who steals

'property, or robs a house; and the wretch who
hundreds of human beings, to be by him
er enslaved, is condemned to only three \Tar;
