Mr. Fs,Lea's motion fog an inquiry into the state of
the Silk Trade was lost last night by a very large
majority. The measures proposed by W. V. FITZ.
IGIZIALD for reducing the duties on thrown silk, tram,
&c. will of course be adopted, and they may in some
degree assist the manufacturers s but the persons en-
gaged in the other branches of this unfortunate trade
will, we fear, be utterly ruined by the contemplated re-
duction of protecting duties.
Thus the measures which are necessary under the
present system to assist one part of the trade are de-
structive to another ; and hence we infer, that the system
itself cannot be advantageous. ' It is useless to expect
that without protecting duties our own manufactures
can compete_with those of foreign countries, where
the rates of labour and tasation are so much less than
to this country.

The Paris Papers of Sunday do not contain any news
of importance. The Ministerial arrangements cone•
Tint upon the recent defeat of the Government have
not yet been announced; but very extensive and ins.
portant changes are confidently expected.
Intelligence from Vienna has been received of the
admission of the Archduke FERDINAND, Presumptive
Heir of the Throne of Austria, into a share of the adnri:
nistration of Government. His Imperial Highness has
bees raised to the dignity of ALTAR Leo, or Lieutenant
of the Empire.,

Viscount CHATZAOIIIIIAND was still at Rome on the
241 instant.

German Pipers of tbr Bririnstant.were received this
morning ; from which we have made the following
extracts:

CONSTANTINOPLE, MAICM 10.

The mere the patience of the European ascots is put to the proof
in endeavooring to obtain concessions from the Porte, the less floes
the latter seem inclined so any negociatioo. The mistrust of the
Divan towards the Christian Powers increaseg in proportion as it
sees their incessant efforts for the acceptance of the mediat;on. The
Turks, incapable of judging of any thing but direct interest, and
looking upon this as the sole object of the negotiations, cannot raise
their ideas to the point from which the policy of the Powers is to
be considered; aid, as they are unable to appreciate motives of
philanthropy, they make the result the subject of cold calculation.
A Tusk of distinction said Welts, " It is not for nothing that so
much honour is done us--.lt is not for nothing that so much value
is attached to our assent to the Emancipation of the Greeks—
though onr fleet was burnt at Navarin. and French troops sent to
the Mores, against our will—and there must be the must impor.
cant reasons for such a proceeding; but yoti will not succeed in
ootwittiog the Pone, and to induce it to take, blindfold, a step on
which its honour, and perhaps its existence, depends. The Ports
raise see clearly before it acts."

Mega wards from the mouth of a man who is intimately sal
quainted with the INICreJ of Turkish poiley.•prove that nobody
has yet succeeded to convincing the Divan of the real intentions'
of the Pewee's. and that the most active Degochtlons will lead
to nothing but to confirm the 'Turkish Ministry in the illusion
that, diginterestodnese and the general pod are used in tbe no-

godatiom as mere prstezta, but the objects ate la the
_ _ _

ground. It is diamak even ler an enlightened person to get rid
of evels praising% bet fur a Turk it is Impossible. In his opinion
the perfection of policy is divinity, and he cannot help judging
when by himself. Every Meg, however indifferent, is therefore.,
seen in II false light. The keg etay of M. Janbert, who expects
as answer from his Government to. the declaration of the Poets,
gives the .okoman Ministry ample scope for • conjectures, and
leads it to seek in grenade carefully concealed the key which it
has in its own bands. The Speeches of the Bing of England and
Franca to their Parliaments increases the confusion of ideas;
they conks' the suspicion that the language used in London and
Park isaliffereat treat that employed at Ccinstantinopk, and that
it is intended *lodges the Porta voluntarily to sign the sentence

al Its owat rata. •

A great Impression woe made- by those passages In the itoyal
, speeches which mention the friendly relations with other oadons,
1 and the Rats RONAL le said to have found It dl/tub to endentand
,there. He questioned the Dragoman of a friendly Coon on the
subject, and desired to Wow whether it was the usage of Pulls.
Dues wipe* in these terms, and whether these assurances were
-cootonstable to troth? He mined surprised at the answer he re-
' geieed, and espeessA himself In a manner by no means favourable.
