COLONIAL APPNALS.

Mr. HUME moved for a Return of all the Appeals
which had been received and entered by his Majesty's
Privy Council, from the year 1814, distinguishing those
which had been heard and those which bad been de;
cided. The Hon. Member passed severe strictures on
the Court of Appeal, which be described u having neitka Judge,
Officers, regulations, nor appointed periods for sitting.
Mr. Secretary PEEL had no objection whatever to,
the information wished for being afforded ; all that he
wanted was, that the Returns laid before the House
should give as ample information on the subject as pot. 1
sible. He would, therefore, suggest, that not only should
a Return be made of the Appeals noticed by the Hon.
Member, but also of aU Appeals received tree the Ides if
Guernsey and Jersey, and also of these respecting claims. Frame,
distinguished, of course, in the same way as had been proposed the
others should be by the Hon. Member for Aberdeen.

Private letters from Lisbon state, that the prevailing
opinion there was, that Marshal BERESPORD would be
appointed to the supreme command of the Portuguese
army: be has given orders for a large establishment. .

Accounts from Madrid state, that a Company of
Bankers, consisting of French, German, and English,
were for a long time negociating with the Spanish Go.
Imminent, for the monopoly of tobacco. The negocia.
tion was nearly concluded, but they could not agree
amongst themselves, in regard to the price, when it
was broke off.

A Flanders Mail has brought us Brussels Papers to
the 2d inst. The following are extracts :

BRUSSELS, Novutwa 29.

We have already mentioned that a Committee fbr the
aid of the Greeks has been formed at Dresden; the ob-
ject of which is to send for Greek orphans, and to en-
trust them to the care of some noble philanthropists of
Dresden and other cities in Germany. Twenty of these
unfortunate orphans are on the way, who have been
sent by the Committee at Marseilles, and have been
adopted beforehand for the most part by worthy Cler-
gymen. Twenty more are applied for. A notice of
20th September, states, that those persons who shall
receive and educate these children will not have to be
at any expense for them. A Committee has also been
formed at Leipsig, which takes upon itself to afford to
young Greek orphans means to study at the University
of Leipsig. The finances of this Committee are in a
very flourishing state.
Ibis Extellency Count de Liedekerke, Minister of the
Netherlands to the Swiss Confederation, set out yester-
day for Switserland.
The Magistrates of this city have giien notice, by or-
der of tbeGovern meat of the province, and in conformity
with his Majesty's Rescript of 21st October last, that
the Royal Decrees of 14th June, and 14th Augusts
1825, relative to the Philosophical College, will be irre-
vocably enforced; and that young men who shall have
studied out of the kingdom will not be appointed by /is
Majesty to any offices, or admitted to the exercise of
any ecclesiastical functions.
DECOMICA I.—By an official Report, of the 27th of
November, it appears that the disorder in the psovince
of Overyssel continues as before, the number of deaths
is greater than the week before: that of the sick had ie
general neither increased nor diminished. At Blockz}l,
however, there were more sick persons in a dangerous
state than before.

The Rector Magnificos, of the University of Groan)*
gen, has just resolved, that considering the great ding'
*talon in the number of sick, there seems to.be no longer

any reason to delay the opeefeg of the lectures. and
he hai fixed the sth of December for this purpose.
FRANKFORT, NOYAKIIIM 20. _ _ _

By an arrangement made at Carlsruhe, on the 14th
of November, 1826, Baden and Bavaria have agreed to
cat an the windings of the Rhine, between the Forest
bf HasseWorst, near Scbrackh, and the Canal of Fran-
kenthal. There will be nine of these cuts in the terri-
tory of Baden, and seven in that of Bavaria. Each
Government is to oarry into execution the works that
are undertaken in the territory of the other. The work
is already begun in the environs of Spire. This rectifi-
cation of the river will be completed in 1831. It will 11
shorten the course of the Rhine, seven or eight leagues,
Eight hundred feet is the breadth fixed upon for the
river. Where it is necessary the river will be reduced
ito the breadth by dikes, which the two Governments
have engaged to keep in good order. In consequence,
0 this operation the bed of the river will acquire more
depth, which according to the calculations that have
been made, will be at least ten or twelve feet. At pre.
sent the navigation of the Upper Rhine is very difficult,
as well for want of water in the channel, as of good
towing paths, which it is impossible to keep up, on as
count of the irregular course of the river: These incon-
veniences will cease by this rectification of its course, and
:ommerce will derive inestimable advantages from it.
The Government of Baden has also proposed to that
of France, to proceed to the rectification of the Rhine
from Schackh to Huningen.

We have received the Paris morning papers of Mon-
day, with the Eteile dated Tuesday. It is said in a paragraph in
the latter, that a courier had arrived at Paris on the 2d instant,
w►o left iNladrid on the 26th ult. with the intelligence that Spain
offers to afford every satisfaction on the late movement of the Por-
tuguese refugees, and promises to take measures against similar at-
tempts in future. It is stated in a paragraph from Lisbon. that the
Portuguese Minister of War has returned from his Tear in the
Algarves. His F.xcellency has had several conferences with Lord
Hainwroan, who is going to organize the Portuguese Army, as be
did about twelve years ago.

Nothing of material importance occurred in Parlia-1
meat yesterday. In the House of Lords the Cora Indemnity Bill
Was read a second time, and ordered to be committed this day.
The whole of the necessary business will have been gone through on
Monday, and the adjournment will soon after take place. la
answer to a question put in the House of Commons by Mr. asanis
Mr. Secretary Pam. said that Parliament would re-assemble foe
the dispatch of business early in February.—Petitions upon various
subjects were presented; but none of them were of a nature to
call for particular notice.
