THE FUNDS.

This is a 114414 (the Purification of the Vracur
MARY), but more business has been done than has,
been known for some time. Consols, which left off
last night at 721/2, this morning were done at 73,
but afterwards fell to 72%. The Market looks ex-
ceedingli well, and a farther advance is still expected.

A most important document was yesterday even-
ing laid upon the table of the House of Lords by
Lord LIVERPOOL ; namely, a copy of a dispatch
transmitted by our Government to its Envoys at the
different European Courts, by way of answer to the
Circular of Austria, Russia, and Prussia, respecting
the Neapolitan Revolution.
We have not, for a long time, seen any Public
Document from our Government entitled to such
unqualified approbation as the one to which we
allude. In the Cioultr of the Allied Monarchs,
they had expressed confidence in the concurrence of
the Courts of Paris and London in the measures
meditated against the Neapolitans. To this the pre-
sent instructions give a direct negative, so far as
concerns our Government, and at the same time re-
fuse to recognize any such principle of interference
as proper to be admitted into any system of interna-
tional law; but without questioning the right of in-
dividual States to adopt measures for their •wn im-
mediate safety, when that is threatened by events
passing in the territories of a neighbouring State..
So far this Paper is unexceptionable ; but we are
not prepared to say, that in the measures which any
State may adopt, on the ground (real or pretended)
of protecting itself against possible contingent evils
which may result from revolutionary movements in
another, nothing can ever occur which should make
other States interfere in defence of the one whose in-
ternal concerns may thus be assailed by a neighbour-
ing Power. It may, in many possible cases, hap-
pen, that it would not only be proper to refuse con-
curring with the views of those who wish to interfere
with the internal affairs of other States— as.our Go-
vernment has now done respecting the meditated at-
tack on Naples—but that the case may be such as to
call for opposite conduct, and to render it fitting that
they should say—" You have no tight to interfere
any more than we have. Your pretext may have
something farther in view ; and, if you be permitted
to proceed, may lead to a change of territorial sove-
reignty calculated to destroy the present balance of
power in Europe: and if you persist, we may feel
ourselves imperatively called upon to interfere, to
prevent this derangement."—lt is undeniable, that
this is an evil more to be dreaded, as concerning the
maintenance of the general peace of Europe, than
any internal changes that can take place in any
State, if the others would only let them alone : or,
in other words, that it must always be more dan-
gerous to venture on a war, on pretext of settling the
internal affairs of another State, than to let that
State arrange its own affairs in whatever way it may
think -fit.

We are willing to give our Ministers full credit for
the best intentions in what they have done on the
present occasion ; bat we are not sure, nor are we
qualified to decide, whether their influence, so far as
it may be available, should not be more directly ap-
plied to avert from the Neapolitans the invasion with
which they are now threatened. The document itself
we have given.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER stated dis-
tinctly last night in the House of Commonsl that no
new Taxes, nor any Loan will be required for the ser-

_ •

_.•.,

vices of cue year ; nor will any addition be made to
the Funded Debt of the Nation.

The QUDEN'S business still furnishes matter for
controversy in the House of Commons. On Wedi.
Resday night Mr. HoLssE Summit, in moving that
£30,000 should be substituted for the. £50,000 p--o-
-, posed to be granted to her,Masesrv, took upon him
to state in his place, that—" he had heard from an
authority on which he was disposed to rely, thaa the
QUEE% had not paid one private bill since her arrival."
He was challenged by Mr. Alderman WOOD to pro-
' duce one instance in support of his assertion, and he
(Mr. Worm) would pay the demand. The Honour-
able Member for Surrey was again called upon, last
night, to the same effect; and the fact now appears
to be, that he cannot produce a single instance of a
private bill being unpaid. When we find the Member
for a great County, in the face of the Nation, not
scrupling to bring forward a charge of this kind
against her MAJESTY—a charge, the truth or false-
hood of which it would have been so easy for him to
ascertain, the tradesmen of her MaJesTi being nu-
merous, well known, and within a few miles of his
own residence, can we wonder at the number of
scandalous stories circulated against the QUEEN, all
on high, the very highest authority, when the false-
hood was secure from detection, and when the in-
ventors a n cic irc ul ators were secure from responsibility?
Another attempt was made last night to impute
blame to her MAJESTY for the stile in which, it is al-
leged, her late Vice-Chamberlain lives in Paris!—as
if, forsooth, any one was,to he made answerable-for
the conduct a another, because that other person
had once been in their service!
All these siJe u ind attacks we consider as mere
attempts to evade the Only question that now agitates
the couotry—Whetiwt the prayer of so many persons
to have her MAJESTY'S name restored to the Liturgy
shall be evaded ? Do those Members who give t'. eir
support to Ministers from, perhaps, a conviction that
thereby they shall best accelerate the tranquillity of,
the country, really believe that that feeling, which
prompted the people of this country to petition the
Legislaturts to have her MAJESTY'S name restored to
the Liturgy, can be conjured out of them by the dis-
respect with which their Petitions are treated? If so,
they must be acting under a most singular delusion.

The Moderator and Members of the Reverend
Presbytery of Langholm, in Scotland, have, through
the lenity of Sir JOHN NEWPORT, been spared the'
necessity of making what would doubtless have been
a very foolish appearance at the Bar of the House of
Commons. We trust they will profit by the indul-
gence shewn them ; and give up political prating in
future, for those sacred offices to which alone it be-
hoves them to devote their attention.

The Paris Papers of Tuesday arrived this fotenoon

On Monday there was an Extraordinary Convoca-
tion of thr Chamber of Deputies, when the KEEPER
of the SEALS made the following Communication
from his MAJESTY, respecting the Gunpowder Plot
of Saturday :
•' On Saturday, the 27th of the present month of
January, at a quarter from five o'clock in the after-
noon, a loud explosion was heard in the interior of
the Chateau of the Thuilleries. This explosion pro-
ceeded from a barrel of gunpowder, which has been
since ascertained to have been of the contents of about
six pounds. It had been placed between the wall and ;
a wooden chest on a landing place of the staircase,
commonly known by the name of the wooden staircase.
This staircase, designed for the use of the apartmeins
of Madame and those of the King, led also to the
upper story and to the leads of the Chateau ; it is
frequented by the persons who have business with
the different servants of his Majesty's Household
lodged in that part of the Thuilleries.

" The landing-place on which the barrel of gun-
powder was placed, is about ninety feet distant from
the cabinet which the King usually occupies. It is
separated from that cabinet by several partitions, and
is above the story in which is the apartment of
Madame. The explosion took effect on the side
where there was the least resistance, which was the
space occupied by the staircase. Many squares of
glass have been broken ; several doors and windows
have been torn from their places. The explosion
had no other consequence; and in the direction which
it took, it could not, happily, touch either the sacred
person of his Majesty, or the august person of
Madame. At the same time, an attempt committed
in the midst of the palace of our Kings, in the midst
of the faithful servants by whom his Majesty and
the Royal Family are constantly surrounded, shewF
an excess of perversity and audacity which threatens
everything that is dear and sacred to France, and
which would perpetuate inquietudes and alarms too
much justified by the frightful catastrophe which
the interval of a year has not yet separated frc--) .is.
" The King, convinced that whatever concerns
the safety of his person and of his family, as well as
the respect which ought to protect their dwelling,
must excite a lively interest in the Chambers and the
Nation, and desirous to calm the fears which this
event had naturally excited, has directed us to lay
the circumstances before you. The authors of this
attempt are sought after with as much care as acti-
vity, and as to that spirit of perturbation which
inspires such crimes, it will be crushed by the cer-
tainty of all its efforts proving unavailing against ,
the unalterable fidelity of the Nation and of the
'Chambers, and against the durable union baxweeen
them and the King."
The Keeper of the Soak descended from the tri-
bune amidst loud, platulits. M. Castel liajac moved,

that a suitable Address sl:ou1.1 be

occasion to his Majesty. The melon was
mously agreed to, and a Committee named zo
it into effect.

No discovery appears yet to have I,een made
to the authors of the plot.
