and soon after rose to 805, has, within this hour, receded to 801-8
to h for the Account; in the earlier part of the morning a good
deal of business was doing, since which the Market has slackened;
the fluctuation in Consuls this morning has been about 'pet Cent.

Accounts are in town from the Havannah, via
France, to the Bth of August. They state that General
LABORDE, who had returned from his first expedition,
was en the eve of departing on a second, to consist
of one sail of the line, five frigates, and several cor-
vettes; destination not known. Letters were also re-
ceived at the Havannah from Vera Cruz, stating that
a vessel had arrived there from Bordeaux, with Spanish
passengers, but they sere obliged to re-embark, by
order of the Mexican Government, and sail for the
United States.

Accounts from Lisbon state, that it was again re-
ported there, that Spain WAS going to establish a Cordon
Senitaire, composed of all the Royal Guards in Spain.
The Hamburgh mail has brought us accounts from
St. P, tersburgh to the 2,1 September inclusive, and ft om
Moscow to the 25th. An article from St. Petersburgh
states, that a hi rde of Persians had made an irruption
into the Russian territory, and treats it altogether as a
very serious affair. Preparations have commenced for
the corouation of the Emperor NICHOLAS, and a round
of eni

fetes, reviews, &c. are proceeding.

The following are extracts:

ST.PETERSBUGH, AUGUST 18.-(30.)

Despatches from General Yentatuff, who commands
in Georgia, have brought accounts of an it ruption made
by the Persians into several parts of the Russian terri-
tory. These first accounts, transmitted in haste, do not
enable us to understand the character of this aggression.
Is it an effect of the fanatical preachings, which have
for a long time past taken place in Persia, and which
seem to have caused a great fermentation in that country?
Have the tribes near our frontier yielded to that inclina-
tion to plunder and rapine,*which constantly animates
them ? Have their Chiefs favoured their proceedings ?
—Have they been unable to sustain them ? or, lastly,
are we to ascribe so unjust, so sudden an invasion, to
the Court of Persia itself ? Can that Court have vio-
lated, in such a degree, the peace and the treaties which
guarantee it? Can it have, al at once, taken a resolu-
tion to attack us sii.hout motive and without object?
Such are the questions %hick occur, but which the Go-
vernment is not yet able to answer.

The reciprocal advar.ttges secured to Sonia and to
Persia by the treaty of Gulistan—the friendly relations
between them since the conclusion of that treaty—the
absence of all erounds for a serious difterence—the
mission of Major Prince Merzikow to the Schah to
announce to him the accession of his Majesty tie Em-
peror to the throne, and to confirm and strengthen the
fliendship and good understanding between the two
Stattes--the tcception he net with (do his arrival in the

Persian territory—the attention paid to him—the
friendly assurances lavished on him by the pre-
sumptive heir to the Crown Prince, every thing
gave reason to presume the stabi icy and the dura-
tion of the peace. Tnat the Court of Teheran
should reply to this mission by a sudeen attack,
that it should imn:e.iately follow up those assurances
by war without explanation, and without any previous
declaration, even without any pretext ttlit might justify
it, is an event so strange, that the Imperial Government
cannot credit it, till it has received entire confirmation
and authentic proofs of it. Accordingly while General
Yermaloff has received orders to repel force by force,
and to clear our frontiers of the hordes that have dared
to pass them : on the other hand solemn satisfaction
has been demanded of the Schah of Persia. Russia has
demanded fr-.m that Sovereign the immediate deposi-
tion and exemplary punishment (within the term of five
days) of the chief who first violated our frontiers. If
contrary to all expectation this satisfaction should not
be given, General Yermaloff was immediately to ad-
vance and commence offensive operation ; the justice of,
our cause would ensure to our arms the Divine protec•
lion, and the chastisement would be as exemplary as the
attack has been presumptuous and perfidious.

The public will be regularly and accurately informed
of every thing relative to the state of affairs on the
Iroutiers of Persia.

Preparations are already beginning to be made in this capital for
the rejoicings at the Coronation of their Imperial Majesties. Stages
are erecting in all quarters for the illuminations, which promise to
be brilliant. ~

Scrr. 2.—A notion may be formed of the number of travellers
going to Moscow for the coronation from the fact, that to the 500
post-horses at each stage it has been necessary to add 500 more ;
507 were required for the numbers of the diplomatic body alone.
The drivers and peasants who supply the horses have gained more
in a month than they usually do in a year.

Dutch Papers to the 16th, and Hamburg!: Papers to
the 12th, have been received. The following are ex.
tracts:

STOCKHOLM, &mann 5.

His Majesty is going to take a little excursion to Upland to view
the Waddo Canal, but will return by the end of the week to Drot-
ningsholmi
ist.—The dog days are passed, and from the beginning of them
to this day we have not had on the whole two or three hours rain,
so that if the weather does not change, we may expect a complete
scarcity in 11127, as it will be impossible to prepare the ground for
the autumnal sowing.
COPENHAGEN, Sermons 9.

The prices of corn continue to rise, because purchases are made
on speculation, in expectation of exportation.

HAARLEM, SirrimsEß 15.

It seems that the number of sick in the military hospital at Gro-
ningen, as stated by us, was too great, there having been more than
240 patients in it at one time. From the 31st August to 7th Sep-
tember, the number of deaths was the same as in the preceding
week, viz. 149; and on the Bth and 9th September, 48 persons
had died.

HAMBURGH, Szernesan 12.
Private letters from St. Petersburgh say that the Coronation is
bird for 3d September. The Minister of War, who bad been de-
tained at Petersburgh by very important business, bas received a
letter from Geueral Diebitsch, summoning him to repair with all
speed to Moscow.

Lisbon Gazettes to the 3d instant have been received.
The Istrarru was going to spend some days at Cintra for the re-
covery of her health, but previously to her departure she had caused
an address to be issued, calling upon the Portuguese youth to volun-
teer and fill the ranks of the araly, " in defence of their country,
their King, the Constitution, and the public liberties."

The French Morning and Evening Papers of Thurs-
day and Friiay have been received. Their contents are net very
striking. One of them says Lord Cocusaing is at Messina, waiting
for the Greek steam-boats: waiting, as &grey Mt iiticap would
word it, " for boats what volt swiss !"

The following Circular, addressed by Mr. Secretary
CANNING to the friends of Government, will shew that
no business of importance beyond passing the Indemnity
Bill, therein mentioned, which cannot encounter the
slightest opposition, will call for a full attendance of
Members before Christmas:
6' Downing-street, Sept. 7, 1826.
" Sta—Parliament being summoned to meet on the 14th of
INovember for the despatch of business, I take the liberty of ap-
prising yon that the objects which his Majesty's Government have
in •iew at this meeting, are to obtain the sanction of Parliament to
the measures which have been adopted for admitting certain kinds
of Foreign Grain for Home Consumption before they would have
been, by law, regularly admissible for that purpose, and to elect a
Speaker, and complete the other formal proceedings incident to
the opening of a new Parliament.
" I have the honour to be, Sir,
" Your faithful and obedient Servant,
" GEORGE CANNING."

WINDSOR, SEPT. 17.—This morning his MAJESTY
and suite attended Divine Service in the private Chapel in the
Royal Lodge,which was performed by the Rev. Dr. PIAIIION, Dean
of Salisbury. Her Royal Highness the Princess AUOISTA, attended
by her Lady in Waiting, and accompanied by the Duchess of New-
CASTLK, attended Divine Service in the Parish Church.

The Duke of Sussex paid a visit to his Royal Brother
the Duke of You', yesterday afternoon, at the residence of the
Duke of RUTLAND, in Arlington-street. The LoanCHANCILLOIL

and the Duke of WXLLINGTON also paid visits yesterday to his Royal
Highness, as did the Royal Duke's Medical Attendant% Sir REMY
HALIVID and Mr. Macoaraos. His Royal Highness was engaged
on Saturday transacting official business with his Military Secre-
tary, the Adjutant and Quarter Master Generals, &c.
The Duke of WELLINGTON arrived at his residence in

Preparations are making in the interior of the new
Palace building for the Kum, in St. James's Park, for the reception
of the superb marble chimney pieces, and a great portion of the
furniture, fixtures, &c. from the Palace In Pall Mall. They are to
remain in the Riding House, itc. till the new Palaces ready to re-
ceive them.

-----
13nrouxow, SEPT. 16.—1 t is confidently expected that
his Royal Highness the Duke of Yogic will arrive at the Palace in
a few days. His Grace the Duke of Nosvout left Arundel Cas-
tle on Sunday fur his seat, Farnham, Suffolk.—Saturday, Mr. Sinn-
SMITH, of Arlington, received the contents of a fridsd s gun, in his
knee and thigh, and is not expected to recover.
DUELS.—A meeting took place early on Saturday
morning, on Hounslow Heath, between Captain and Mr.
S. in consequence of a dispute at a coffee-house in Oxford-street.
The Captain was severely wounded in the side, and carried off the
ground in a dangerous state.—At an early hour on Saturday morn-
ing, another duel was fought on Fincbley Common, between Cap-
tain B. and W. G. D. Esq. which arose in consequence of the
latter Gentleman making use of some severe reflections on the cha-
racter of a celebrated actress (performing at the Haymarket The-
atre), at a club house in St. Jantes's-street. Both parties fired, and
the shots not taking effect, the seconds declared themselves satisfied,
and thus the affrir termin.ted.

- -
Letters from Dieppe mention a shooting party at the
seat of the Countess de CA iuorr, at Derchigny, in which the Duchess
of BERRY cut a conspicuous hgure. According to these letters, the
Princess killed game at the distance of sixty yards. Her Royal
Highness also killed a fox.
The Algemeinc Zeitung 'tares that a Bank is to be
established at Antwerp, by a Society there, for the encourage-
ment of national industry. Prince Mutton, Governor of Servia,
is said in these Papers to have caused the tongue and hands of a
respectable foreign subject at Belgrade to be cut off, because be had
copied some of the Greek addresses in favour of emancipation—and
the individual to be given up in that mutilated state to the Austrian
quarantine
