TURIN, APRIL 13.

The British gun-brig Calypso, from Algiers, has
brought the agreeable intelligence of Peace having
been concluded on the 3d instant, between the King
of Sardinia and the Dey of Algiers, and this treaty
has been concluded without money : it has been en-
tirely brought abaut by the generous friendship of the
British Government, and the influence of Lord Ex-
mouth. In virtue of this treaty the commerce of
Sardinia will be respected by the Dey as much as that
of England—fifty-one Sardinian prisoners were de-
livered up as a pledge of sincerity, and they have ar-
rived at Geneva.

Brussels Papers to the 21st reached us this morn-
ing. The French who were banished by the KING'S
Ordinance of 24th July. 1815, and who had taken
up their residence at Brussels, have all left that city
to proceed to such retreats as they may be able to
find elsewhere. There have been many fires of late
in the North of France.: their frequency has given
rise to an opinion that they are the result of party
feuds, seeking secret vengeance.
The accounts from the South of Europe present
little novelty. The best understanding is said to pre-
vail between the Courts of Naples and Vienna,

ft Omagh :he otobet of Aestrtas troops to da yid!,
nity of Naples amounts to 14,000." The prepara-
tions for the rc of the young Princess from
Naples for Paris are continued. A Professorship for
Moral Philosophy has been founded at Roe*. Bread
is excessively nigh in Rome—about 4d. per pound.
Our private letters inform us, that it is estimated
that in Brussels alone, there are more than 300 Eng-
lish Families. On a moderate computation each
family may be supposed to expend £3OO per annum ;
sn that not less than £lOO,OOO are annually expend.
ed by the English in that city. This amount is
drawn on England, and the bills are negociated by
Bankers, who, we are assured, by an English Geo-
demon that has resided many months in Belgium,
get a prof:t on these bills which exceeds by more
double the bounds of fair commercial heneEt. :Fur
example, when the Exchange (as was lately ti.e
case) exceeded 25 francs for the pound sttrling. a
private Gentleman would get no sore frnia h:s
Banker than 231 francs, if even so ma:7l, so tat
on 231 francs the Banker would get 11, or about
Seven per Cent. which on £90,000 is &Mo:.
We therefore recommend to our countrymen to
procure letters of credit from England for a given
number of francs, and to draw for the same in francs.
specifying in the bills the Exchange, which would
afford their Bankers in London the means of de•
tecting any imposition to which they might be sub.
sect. Tbe profit on such transactions. where no risk
is incurred, ought not to exceed 14, or at most 2 ptit
cent. ; and there are doubtless plenty, of respectable
English Houses who would transact such business
for such a profit. Some' of the English families are
of the higher class, nod it is probable instead of
4300, spend front three to £5OOO a-year. •
