Two or ettr cotemporaries are involved in hot disputes
on the amount of our National Debt. As very frequently
happens, they are both in the wrong. Thus, the writer
in the toning chronicle contends, that since 1819,
there has been an increase of the capital of the Funded
Debt to the extent of sixty-one millions and a half, and
of t::e charge or annual Interest of that Debt, to the
extent only of £31,396; but as this last is not so much
as the interest of one million, it follows that the other
sixty millions bear no interest at all, which is singularly
fortunate, and we may therefore bear the burthen of L.
with tolerable patience. The writer in the New Times
contends, on the contrary, that the capital of our Debt
has dimini,hed by £13,383,489, and the Interest thereof
by £22,612.174. This last saving, however, is the charge
on a capital of £87,072,800 in t'te Three per Cents. so
that, on his own :hewing, the diminution of the Debt
Must be far greater than our sanguine friend supposes.
Both the disputants omit the capital which is the va-
lue .of the terminable Annuities. Thus, the present
Long Annuity, expiring 1860, sells at 19 years pur-
chase. It consists of an annuity of £1,699,175 for 331
years to come, consequently the whole is worth, in ready
Money, £32,283,325, which would purchase Consols to
the extent of forty millions and a half. Then there is
the Annuity of £2,800,000 created for 44 years, in lieu
of a debt of equal value existing previously, in the shape
of Naval and Military Pensions or Life Annuities. This
must at least equal fifty millions more of Consols.—
Lastly, there are various Government Life Annuities,
to the extent of about one million a year, the capital of
which must be at any rate not less than fifteen millions
additional ; so that here are upwards of one hundred
'pillions of debt unfairly passed over by both our dis-
putants, partially included by one, and totally omitted
by the other.

Fiar.kfott and other German Papers to the 12th.
were• received this morning ; but their contents are of,
little interest. The remains of the late Queen of
SwaosN arrived at Carlsruhe on the 9th instant, and
were to be removed to the family vault at Pforzheim.
The following are extracts:

TRIESTE, Ocrosim 4.

We are still without any news of importance from
the Levant. The Captain of a ship which has arrived 1
in thirteen days from Zante, relates that he heard there
of the taking of Athens by the Turks, and that the
Captain Pacha's lipet was still lying at Mirylene to repair.
. torn Alexandria we have a confirmation of the
. sr/that a new expedition is fitting out there, to're-
inforce. Ibrahim Pacha. Accounts from Leghorn of
29th of August say. that an Engli.h yacht, coming
from Bantry Bay. in Ireland, had arrived there with
passengers, and had been placed under surveillance.
