The gloom which bas prevailed over the Money
Market during the whole of the week has but a slight
degree been dissipated: still distress seems to prevail,
and it is thought that a further decline must take place
shortly. This opinion is founded on the fact of a de-
creasingßevenue.arising from the stagnation of all busi-
ness, and on the expectation that the CaAlleaLLOa of the
EXCHasnalt cannot avoid funding a certain pint of the
Unfunded Debt, for the double purpose of getting rid
of so inconvenient and dangerous an incumbrance, and
enabling him, in the event of a further decline in the
Revenue at the close of the year, or the necessity of an
increased Expenditure before Parliament re-assembles,
to have recourse again to the expedient of issuing Ex-
chequer Bills to supply the deficiency.
But we trust that bis Majesty's Ministers will set
seriously to work to devise and carry Rao effect some
decided plan of Finance, which will not be a mere
system of shifts and expedients. The difficulty must
be met boldly, and the sooner it is done the less danger
there will be in attempting it, and the mere chance of
triumphing over difficulties. Taxation must be re-
duced, to enable as to compete with other nations; and
that kaanot be done without some means being hit upon
by which the National Debt may be considerably re-
diced. This, we apprehend, can only be effected by'
a general sacrifice being made of a certain proportion
of all property; and however a Property Tax might to
certain extent effect the object, we believe that nothing
really effectual towards the salvation of the country
and every interest in it, but a sacrifice of a part of the
principal, can be adopted.

It will be observed that the CHANCELLOR of the Ex-
citations gave notice last night of a motion for refer-
ring to a Committee of the whole Horne, on Friday
next, the consideration of all thl laws relating to the
Sinking Fund. We presume he will then make his ge-
neral expose of the financial circumstance, of the noun-
tiy, and give a rough outline of the intentions of Go-
, vernment on this important branch of public affairs.
If the Sinking Fund is re.,lly to be limited to the
amount of the actual boss fide surplus Revenue, we ap-
prehend, as we before stated, that it will expire by a
natural death, and not occasion the convulsion which
the abolition of a Sinking Fund would at any other time
have occasioned. The minds of all men seem to be
reconciled to great changes, and to view them with an
extraordinary degree of apathy and indeffertnace.

The Paris Papers of Wednesday, and the Gazette de
France dated Thursday last, reached •s last night.—
Hostilities between the Russians and Turks have ahead,
commenced, and most important events may be imme-
diately expected.

The dissolution of the Chambers, and probably of the
French Ministry, is mach spoken of in these Papers.—
A proposition, which was made by a Deputy in a Se-
cret Committee, that half the arrears due to the Mem-
bers of the Legion of Honour, prior t 0.1820, was Nega-
tived by a very small majority, though vehemently
opposed by the Minister of Finance.

The Algenuthie Zeitteag of the 25th April. has reached
us this morning, from which we make the following
extract:

The Cmirrier de Sasyrne of the lith of March gives the following
news front a letter dated frosts Canes, in the island of
February 26, which nicotine actions tier bad taken place in the
course of that mont► between the Greeks and the Turks. After
one of them, which occurred near Malaxs. the Turks sent into the
town two pair of colours, SOO Greek women and children, whom
they made slaves, 4,000 bead of esule,a Greek Captain, and rime
prisoners.
" It is believed." adds the Journal. 6' that Mestapbs.Packa will
soon assemble all his troops and Undertake a regular expedition against
the revoked provinces. Thus, then, the civil war Is renewed in that
Unhappy Masa. the Turks and Greeks gala murdering sach other

of a population which, to avoid panishlog with famine, has Sad from
the mountains which are covered wit► snow into the plain, sod all
this to realise the tireamof tht,Presideot of Greece, who in his
'asshidss Formes the illusive image of as exteaskve.and powerful
Suite. Was it fee this that a Treaty of Meanies was signed a

ca pat an end to the shedding of blood ; yet blood does not cease
to flow under the eyes and through the eoensunds cor Um Mk°
was appointed to carry into Wets the boorlicesit intentions of
the Powers. Is not the philantbropy.of &sop* cruelly deceived,
since from the battle of Nevins to the seems of bidedabed
in Caodia we ate only mute at which humanity must weep?—
We must not blame the Cabinets for this, who sincerely will►
to relieve the misery of the nnfortuoste people, bat rather what
is called public opinion ; because It is met with in some Journals,
which declaim wit► vehemence, and has ventured to require that
the Greels'should be allowed to commit the excesses from which
it was intended to protect them—an opinion the madness of which
Is Dow to be found only In those Journals, but the influence of,
whicisis still felt. Per these two years past the Powers have
been gaming themselves in comma to restore peace in the Levant.

-I'be French were sent to the Mona, *here their numbers were
reduced by sickness; an immense sum of mosey was lavished.—

ankwaly the Cabinets affirm is public documents that they desire
poste, kite President make Mar and spreads it as tar as is in his
power. The two Powers separate (rum Russia as mouse the latter

dm seises the moment to connect himself mute intimately with
Russia ,ca uses his sr inters to aid the Russian fieet,to detain and search
all neutral vesicle, and subjects them to a simmered tribunal, till the
Commander of a squadron resolves to overthrow, uses for all, that
system of organised piracy ; and,in executing this noble sada-taking,
gains the approbation of the merchants, and of all those who know
that the assertioa of principles is escudo,* to the maintenance of
society. Thus England and France,' in return for all that they
do for Greece, have not eves the satisfactiwo of seeing that the
President has adopted, or even regarded, any one of these resolo
dons. Far from following them. be hopes to oblige them to follow
his. His intention is, to augment Greece with all the coma
tries in which there may be a revolted Greek, and to cause k
to be repeated by his usual ermine, that • there mho the
petard people languish in slavery and long for deliveraoce. • Bet
wises shall these disorders cease t •Whes shall the Greek twee
lodes cod Such are the questions asked by numerous families
of ChrillallS in the Levant, sad will doubtless be asked la
Europe by those who clearly see that this state of things is incest.
Foible with their tranquillity. The Mores and the Cyclades offer
a secure asylum to every Greek who desire to withdraw from the
Ottoman Government, and live under the-laws of a Government
professing their own Religion. The uscultivated soil of the Patio
solo requires industrieue bands; whoever goes thither with the
intention of leading an industrious life will hod a livellksed.
Is it we mare just end natural to say to the dieceoffinied
Greeks le the domialoos of the Sultan. s The Horn will receive
you,' than to revolutionise and depopulate every place where the
most insignificant calls oat for Überty, of which he bears the name
without understanding the meaning ? That such is the design of
the President, is proved sot only by all the public acts of his

vernment relative to foreign 'countries, but by Wilda papers of
Baron Von Beyneek, which were (oast on board the Greek cor-
vette captured at Saltines. His intentions are clear—be dodger war
lin the Bast at the risk of engaging all Europe in k, dll the empire
of the East Is re-established for him, 'busies its restaratiuo might
contribute very little to the happiness and prosperity 'of the
Greeks, as ii would lay a burden sin 'best which they could not
bear. but which seems to be much desired by their( bid, whoa,
sleep has been fur sums time disturbed by she sovereign power
assumed by Bobvar."

The writer then proceeds to argue, shit the President bore to
prosecute his plans unobserved, while genrral attention is drawn to
tin occurrence.s on the Dauube ; that be will accept what France
and England may give, without regarding the coodi-iuns or caring
about restoring peace between the Greeks and Turks, and that is
clearly proved by the endeavours be is making to revi.e the insur-
rection in Candia.—AlgemeMe Seining, Apr* 25.

executed at Falmouth Trelawny upon the same case, namely, the
complain: made by a person of the name of Basaasctu, against the
Magistrates, for allegedipartiality and violation of the Sire Law.
The Report of the Commissioners was, it Is understood, carried tell
England by the Colonial Chief Juatlce,W. A. ficem.srr. being also
on the Commission. It appears that the Colonial °dice was not
satisfied with the Report. and instituted another Comoti.dem,
directed to the Attorney General (until his Illareaves pleasure be
known). Hato June attempted to mane it at Falmouth Tee..

than ambush to the re-iterated hawk of having their chanctera im-
