BERLIN, JILT 22.

Our Journals now publish at full length the report of the Russian
conspiracy. The perusal of it, independent of its horrible contents,
makes a disagreeable impression; it shews, in the clearest light,
how low the conspirators are in the scale of intellectual knowledge.
'lite sight of simple ignorance is tolerable, but it appears in this
' instance mixed with shreds of heterogenous civilisation, patched
together as a dress to adorn the awkward barbarian.
Nothing can be more disjointed, more wicked, and more ridicu-
lous than these plans; nothing more shocking than these repeated
projects of assassination. But it seems quite out of the way to
connect, as some persons are "posed to do, this Russian conspiracy
with the revolutionary intrigues in Germany. If inexperienced
youths have formed childish projects in Germany, no man of any
weight has taken part in these plans, and nowhere can there be any
notion of actual danger,
But in Russia the conspiracy has been formed among the great
Nobility, and must be founded on something else than merely ac-
quired opinions. The activity of the Russsian Commission of en-
quiry deserves all praise, it has accomplished in six months what
would hardly have been done in Germany in six years.

By the Penelope, ariived in the Clyde, Trinidad
Papers and Letters have been received to the 13th
June. A general meeting of the inhabitants had been
called for the 24th, in order to take into consideration
the propriety of petitioning the Imperial Parliament on
the subject of the late laws enforced in that colony,
connected with the slave population.

We have received French Papers to the 3d instant,
and the Eloik of Thursday. The latter contains in-
telligence from St. Petersburgh, which states that sen-
tence was to be passed upon the convicted conspirators
on the Tld of July. The Russian Plenipotentiaries had
arrived at Ackerman as early as the 3d of July, but
those from Turkey had not yet made their appea•ance,
which confirms the statement of the Journal des Mats,
that they had been prevented by the Janissaries in arms
in the provinces from proceeding to their destination.

GLASGOW, Avous!

THE LINEN BOUNTY.
It baa often been justly remarked that our brethren on the North
of the Tweed are a little too auldfor us, and this has been pretty
evident elate in regard to the bounty on linens. . As the law now
stands, linens under the 'Value of sd. per yard get the bounty of a
halfpet•.ny per yard, from sd. to 6d. they get Id. from 6d. to Is. 6d.
the bounty is lid. all subject to a deduction of 20 per cent.
The depressed state of trade having brought the article of Osna-
burgh from 61. to 41 they are, by law, entitled only to the lowest
bounty; but Satoney turned them all into .No 10 annum, and shipped
every piece in Great Britain, prior to the sth ultimo, at a bounty
of 241. per ell, free of all deduction. It is a little strange that he did
not think of shipping Highland plaiding as No. 10, canvass, and
claiming the bounty on it: He did, however, ship a kind of pack-
sheet, called Hessians, as canvass, worth about 4ad. to 41d. per yard.
New Wistax.—Harvest proceeds rapidly in every quarter, and
from no part of the kingdom, some districts of Scotland excepted,
do we hear of any aerious fears of the general results of the crop.
On the contrary, iH England and in Ireland, every account speaks
about a fair crop of different kinds of grain, while the wheat crop
is every where represented as abundant in quantity and excellent
in quality. On Tuesday last, 144 bolls new wheat, mill free, were
delivered at the Incorporation of Bakers Mills, Partick. The
quality we have seen, and it is excellent. Last year, the first new
wheat delivered at the same mills did not make its appearance till
:he 25th August, so that the harvest in the present season is just so
many days earlier.
Several hundreds of shearers appeared at our Cross on Tuesday
and Wednesday mornings, n ..st of whom were hired. Wages ran
front 2s. to 2s. 4d.
