AIX-LA-CHAPELLE, OCTOBE1? 2.

To-day the Emperor of Russia and King of Prus-
sia, together with all the corps diplomatique, dined
with the Emperor of Austria. The august party
separated at the early hour of four o'clock. The
Emperor Alexander is preparing to go to his country-
house, near Louisberg, where itis said he will be
visited by his brother-in-law the Prince of Orange,
now at Spa. Lord Castlereagh had last night a long
conference with Prince Metternich, at the hotel of
the latter Minister. A Courier every day leaves
Aix-la-Chapelle for Path. To-day M. G. Caraman,
the Secretary of the French Embassy at London, set
off for Paris, en courier, with dispatches. This even-1
ing there is a splendid circle diplomatifne at the Duke
ofN ellington's. Madame Vitrolles, who expressed
a desire to wait upon the Duke of Richelieu, as Am-
bassatrix of the Ultras, has received positive notice
that her visits will not be received.

The Ministers of the high Allied Powers are using
the utmost dispatch in the execution of the important
business which they are assembled to deliberate upon
and conclude. No formalities, no ceremonies, no
diplomatic etiquette, are allowed to interrupt their
progress or disturb their harmony. Already tour or
five conferences have taken place, and on the points
as yet brought forward the utmost unanimity pre-
vails. The Ministers meet at Prince Flardenberg's,
without any state or chew ; like individuals to whose
private arbitration a great question of policy is refer.
red, rather than like judges invested with the pomp
of office as well as the possession of power, or like
diplomatic agents entrenched behind a mass f forms
and encumbered in their progress by an unceasing at-
tention to useless rules. Frankness and sincerity are
said to be the only guide of their deliberations, and
a speedy decision one of the great objects at which
they aim, if nothing occurs to interrupt their pre-
sent harmony of views, it is thought that they will be
enabled to come to a decision on the affairs of France
by the 18th or 20th instant.—The convention can thus
be ready to be laid before the French Legislature im-
mediately on the convocation of the Chambers, and
before the British Parliament on the first week after it
is assembled for the dispatch of business. Persons in
the suite of the Duke of Richelieu say, that the time
of the opening of the Chambers has been regulated
with a view to this anticipated arrangement ; and,
we have heard from good authority that Lord Castle-
reagh has declared, that his motive for wishing dis-
pdtch is that he may bt enabled to return to the
rlionte of Commons in the beginning or towards the
middle of November with the Treaty in his pocket.
The Speedy dissolution of Congress; of which now so
much is said, will depend upon this circumstance—
that the affairs of Prance will constitute the only
subject of its deliberations; But on this point there
is said to be as yet no general agreement. What seems'
to favour the supposition that no other business of
importance will be immediately undertaken is, that
none of the Powers of the second order have been as
yet authorised to send their Ministers to this Assem-
bly, and that the question of the evacuation of France
is the only one which is certainly known to be under
deliberation.

TILE AMERICAN SEA SERPENTBOSTON, SEP-
TEMBER s.—We lament, in common with the public,
the disappointment of the hopes that had been raised
by the report of the capture of this remarkable ani-
mal. Captain Richard Rich and his party on Thurs-
day last terminated a cruize of nearly three weeks,
in pursuit of the serpent, by taking a fish not very
common in our waters, which, from its singular ap-
pearar.ce in the water, they had been led to believe.
'was the sea serpent so often described. The fish taken
by Captain Rich, and which he brought to town and
exhibited yesterday, is of the mackerel tribe, and is
the thunny or horse-xnackarel. The inquiry naturally
arises, can this fish, or any number of them, be the
monster so often described as a sea serpents We an-
swer decidedly, no. The existence of some remarka-
ble animal in our wate:s last summer, particularly,
near Cape Ann, was proved by the most satisfactory
testimony, and the appearances which he presented
are not in any degree to be accounted for by sup.
posing any number of the fish now taken. The de-
scriptions which we had this season of the serpent,
have been less consistent and satisfactory, and un-
doubtedly often exaggerated. But neither these er
aggerated descriptions, nor the error of persons who
by mistake have been pursuing what had nothing of
the remarkable and charactetistic appearances of the I
sea serpent, ought to lead us to suspect all former
I testimony.

A general gloom pervaded the Money Market this
morning ; the sales were immense, and the general
opinion is, that a further depression will take place
before Tuesday next. The Bankers are said to have
sent circulars to the Country Bankers, /doming
them that the arnouat of their discount must be,
limited, as the Bank of England had restricted the
London Bankers, consequently the same accommo-
dation could not be afforded as formerly. Conso'.s
were at 75t, this day, having revived a little since
yesterday, when they were done at IA ;.

The Paris Papers of Wednesday arrived this fore•

noon.—The Journal des Debats, which was the only
Paper that stated positively that Count CAnAmAN
had brought intelligence of the evacuation of France
having been agreed to by the Allied Powers, now
says that it was premature in this announcement—at
'least, that such is the conclusion which must be
drawn from the more cautiously worded passage in
the Moniteur which it quotes. The truth, notwith-

standing this partial retractation, is still, we are con-
vinced, very nearly as the Journal des Debats repre-
sented it. The evacuation, as we stated yesterday,
has been agreed to—not, however, by the Allied
Monarchs themselves in Congress assembled, but by
their respective Ministers entrusted with the prelimi-
nary discussion of the measures which it may be
proper for their Sovereign Masters to adopt when
formally met for the purpose. It may he considered,
therefore, as only not literally true ; but as an event
on which the most perfect confidence may be placed.
The following article is given under the head of
" MADRID, SEPTEMBER 24.

" The repair which his been made in the Ministe-
rial edifice has only changed its exterior form ; every
thing goes on as before—the same reserve on the
affairs of our Colonies—the same profound silence
on the state of our diplomatic relations with the
Powers assembled at Aix-la-Chapelle. Our Gazette
continues desperately barren ; the extracts from the
military reports of Mexico, which are daily publish-
ed, do not come down further than the beginning of '
March. The Viceroy of Lima has written nothing
since the month of April, and the news of General
Moriilo are not later than the moral of May.
" The private letters from Gallicia annotrice tkit

it haS been the scene of some popular movements.
The recal of Captain-General SAINT MARC is attri-
buted to this cause ; he was not liked in the country,
where many Offieers have been in prison since the
affair of PORLIER, without being brought to trial;

. •
" The departure of M. GARAY has only produced
a sort of stagnation in the commerciA negociationt ;
the rats roya:l2' aie not at any fixed rate of ex-
change. The first steps of his successors are looked
forward to with aniiety ; it it hoped that he will not
destroy the established system: This department of
the Ministry is the most difficult to fill, as may he
judged from the fact that it has changed hands seven
different times since the return of our Sovereign to
his Kingdom.
11 M. de Torres has achieved a real victory Over
M. de Pizarro. These two Ministers were in declared
opposition. We assured that their animosity was
even carried to sash a height. that when they met in
the saloons of the palace, they raised each other
without saluting.
" Much is hoped from M. Casa Trujo, if he is con-
tinued permanently in the Secretaryship of Foreign
Relations. None of his colleagues can.compete with
him in point of diplomatic intelligence ; and. besides,
he is not of a character to yield easily to impressions
from others, of which he gave very unequivocal
proofs during his Embassy at Washington.— M.
Marro had proposed, it seems, that he should be
sent as Envoy to Aix-la-Chapelle; neither of them
expected the turn which affairs have since taken.

" In a few days the mysteries of tLis little revolu-
tion will be developed, or at least it will be seen whe-
:her a new system is to be substituted for that, the
authors of which have been dismissed.

" Some letters from Cadiz say, that the prcpara-'
tions for the destined Expedition to America are not
pushed with so much activity as the arrival of Gene-
ral Count Abisbal led us to hope, and that the cause
of the delay is the scarcity of money. However, in
different parts of Spain the troops have received or-
ders to direct themselves on Andalusia; two regi-
ments are to be embarked at Barcelona for Cadiz ;
other regiments in the interior and along the coasts
are ready to march for the same destination ; and in
a short time the, whole •force will be assembled at
their place of embarkation."

occasioned, no doubt, by the favourtbk new. from

sue Readers, that on die 2d of July, so many
