GERMAN PAPERS.

• VIENNA, APRIL 21.
Prince Metternich was to have a conference with
the Emperor at Treviso, after the ratification of the
Convention with Bavaria; and then, as they say, pro-
ceed to Florence and Naples.
s . PE FERSIBURGII, APRIL 12.
By the new Tarif which, though not yet formally
published, is known in its leading pints the different
views on the abject are reconciled. Both the Com-
mittee appointed to draw it up and the Council of
the Empire having terminated their labours on the
subject After mature deliberation, and the results as
well As the detail having been laid before his Mojesty
for his approbation. his M..jesty, with wise care for
the progress of our own manufactures, has been
pleased on the one hand to retain the prohibitive sy-.
tem, Intl on the other, in order to maintain the corn-
' aerce with foreign countries conformably to the pre-
lent wants of the nation, to allow several exceptions
Irom it.

Thus, for example, the importation of nearly 200 a r
mostly manufactures, is prohibited, but oche%
Well as cloth. plain silk, and white claim goods,
porter, French brandy, fayence (earthenware) of one
colour, sc. may be imported at a high duty; cloth
pays roubles in slyer per ar•liine, 41cc. It is true,
many of the friends of unlimited importation, par-
',ocularly in the Russian paper " The Spirit of -the
Journals," have announced that it was allowed by
the new Tarif ; but at has turned out now that this
was premature.
VERSAILLES, APRIL. Se.
The trial of Su Robert Wilson and his friends has
in general had no good influence Oil the public opi.
nion respecting the present state of things. In the
course of the trial it was necessary to touch upon
several tender points, weaknesses, and errors of the
present Government, which it would.have been bet-
ter to pass over in profound silence. The turn given
to the hilliness is also considered as a false measure;
but it is affirmed the Keeper of the Seals or Minister
of Justice would never have done so, had he not been
compelled by the predominant party in the Chamber
of the Deputies.
BRUSSELS, MAY 1.
His Highness Field-Marshal the Frinciof Water.
100 arrived at Valenciennes on Monday evening. He
passed the following day in examining that great
fortress. To-day the Field-Marshal will reach his
headquarters at Cambray. A general change of
the cantonments of the army is expected, but it is
uncertain whether it will extend to the whole line, or
only to the right wing.
Oa his arrival at Valenciennes, the Duke met a
Courier with important dispatches from Paris. The
Courier returned soon after. The same letters say
that great uneasiness prevails in the department of
the North, on account of the numerous fires which
are believed to be the effect of design. Strict mea-
sures are adopted to discover the perpetrators, and
several who are suspected of being concerned are
arrested.
Two permute implicated in the affair of the Nain-
nricolore, have escaped from France, and have passed
through this city, but without stopping. •
HANOVER, APRIL se.
' Ibe village of Rehstorifin Laneberg, which this
Easter two years was under water, was burnt down
this Easter Sunday, with the church And parsonage,
only four houses being saved. .

stable, and the east wind being high, spread so ra-
pidly, that in two hours five large brewhouses near

twenty fine huge houses, and nearly tarty smaller
were set on bre auni burin so the.ground by the flakes

Mr. TIMINICeII Motion for a Committee to inquire
into the state of the Civil List, with power to sera
for persons, papers, and records, came ender (Iscus.
sion last night. The Motion was rejs;eil, as might
have been anticipated, and was 'mar nmajo•i,yof 91.
'rhere*was a strong contest on the questi4i, fn. the
second reading of the Rams Tate Harbour The
principal ground of opposition rested on the circum•
stance of the harbour dues being much increased by
the increased trade, occasioned by .4 return to state
of peace ; and the probable' future increase which ren.
dered the necessity of an advance of dors by •vs means
evident. The increase of 3ast half year WAS At the rate
of £3OOO pet• annum on for,ign vessels alone, 41.0 the
probability is that the proceeds of the second h 4lf year
will be at even a higher average. The real gitestioe
was negatived by a majority of three.

Mails from HAmburgh and from Holland arrived
this morning. The German Papers state, that the
Russian Tarif, so anxiously expected by the Mercan-
tile world, has at length been settl •ct to the suisfac•
tiOn of all parties At St. Petersburgh.

We have received New York Papers to the 10th
of March. The National InteWinger of the sth an.
nounces that .44 The B tnk Bill has finally passed the
Senate, having previously passed the House of Rti
presentatives, that there remains only the consent
of the House to the aa•endments of the Senate an'.
the approbation of.the PRESIDENT, to make the Bill a
law. The amendments adopted by the Senate are not .
such, it is believed, as affect the principle of the Bill.
The principal of thetas have already been stated in the
Journal of Proceedings of the Senate. There is one
of same moment of this district, which has not been
. noticed, the obj•ct of which is to allow the Govern-
ment to charter any ether Bank or BAnks wit'.in this
district, with capital; nct exceeding in the while six
of chliars. Tate icnprelon is, we
.tiaderstaad, th:tt t!)e amendments will be c incurred
in by the House of Iteprentatives.
" It is stated, on the au•hority of a Gertle.man
direct from Canada; th-tt the Colleelor o! C'ut,lins at
St. Jo!rn'z has given official nctce that after the first
day of April inst. the Ctatute of 28th Geo. 111. will
be in full force, probibi;ing ta an entry from the
United States, of 211 rick, v:.tres, merchandi.:e, or
proinee ,•:hatsoever, excepting grain, potatoes, and
lumber." •

There is, we understand, some kind of caiilate
going on at the Mint, both of Gold an f Silver. 'Elie
Gold pieces are of 23 shillings, and among the silver
some kind of Shilling ; but we apprelwn,f teat it is
not a Royal but a Bank Token issue that i. praNringi,
and this we think highly exceptionable. The .presert
state of our silver circulating medium is most shock.
ing, and G ivernment should instantly prepare an
issue of such magnituale as would allow of the Bir-
mingham coinage, and French livres, and half
lilacs, to be driven at once out of circulation.—
As to the fears erpti.:cs: i,y sumo, that coiners low
money will melt Bank tokens, while that money is
allowed to circulate, it is founded in a palpaiale error :
these money=makers will never melt tokens while they
can buy bullion at a lower price. One of the cam.
plaints agaoist the Bank is, that they also are issuers
of low-money—silver tokens of a weight. greatly eae.
lose the quantity of bullion which they nominally re.
resent.. In one worl, a three shilling token should
represent three shillings worth of bullion, and while
it is of a less weight than three shillings worth of
ver it will not be melted by the shilling and sixpence
makers. _ _

Thursday last Ameas M.Dosstx, Esq. Proprietor
of the Dublin Chronic*, was convicted of a libel in the
Court of Ding's Bench, Dublin, but the Jury strongly
recommended him to the lenity of the Court. The
libel complained of was inserted in the form of a let.
ter from Tipperary, in January last, while that county
was in a convulsed state, and contained s one aol.
madversions, by way of aaticipaGon, on what was
likely to be the line of procedure on the,pirt of the
Government in putting an end to the disiurbances.
The French papers still maintain an entire silence
on the prorogation of the Legislative Session; but we
learn that a great variety ot rumours are afloat a;
Paris, assigning various causes for that event. One
among these reports is not a little singidar. It is
that in a secret sitting of the Chamber ot Disiiti.o„ a
Member stated some proofs which had come to his
knowledge of a plot to change the reigning dynasty.
Among the persons inculpated by him were several
connected, more or less intimately, with the existing
Ministry. The statement is said to have made a
great impression on the Chamber, .vho, it was thought*
would have pursued the matter further; but their in.
tentions 'having transpired, the Government, either
not giving credit to the asserted plot, or wishing to
avoid any public scandal, thought it best to resort to
the measure of a prorogation. Whether this story
''be accurate or not, certain it is that the prorogatioa
was very suddenly determined on ; and that nobody
knew of it in Paris an hour before it happened.
A brew Edition, in French, -Of the inseresting
Mosoires de la Marquise de la Rochejaquelein, was this

with acclamations by the people on the outside of
the Church. They walked to and front the Church
through the church-yard, which is a considerable
distance from the road in Weybridge, where they
left, their carriage ; his Serene Highness without his
bat, and her Royal Highness curtseying, in return
for the marked attention and respect which they ex-
perienced from the inhabitants of Weybridge and its
neighbourhood. The Royal pair drove off amidst

to dinner., Soon after their arrival they received a
communication from the QUESS in London.

with the Prince of Conoutwi. The scene commences
with a view of the sea coast in the back ground, and
a'doible line of female characters in trout. Various
emblematical allusions to the high Saxon origin of
the Prince were exhibited, and in the progress of the
Masque an abundance of magnificent scenery and
appropriate decoration was displayed. Mrs. ReMAnD
was the majestic representatiie of Brieassia, Miss S.

A serious OMIT took place between a party, about
20, of the 51st infinity stationed here, and a body
of the bell fidsfunten, at the Old Ship Tap, between
seven and nine o'clock on Friday evening, in Which
'three of the latter received' several severe bayonet
wounds. They are at present confined; but happily
their lives are not considered in danger. One man
was dreadfully cut about the head, the artery on the
oraigods being divided, and the hementege very

made to their Officers occasioned esveral tithe infii-1
tart' to be brought to the halberds yesterday and p?-
;tithed, and an order was issued that no private in
the corps, when off duty, should be allowed to wear
side arms. The prise-money which the military have
received of late for their brilliant services abroad, and
the dissipation it has led to, have, doubtlessly, been
the cause of the intemperate behaviour mentioned;
nor has it been the only instance of a simibw nature.
Towards the conclusion of the sitting last night,
the Headboroughs brought in a soldier of the Slit,
whe had entered the house of a person of the name
of Collins, in Russell•street, not an hour previously.

of the guard was sent for by Mr. Sericani:Ranning-

brought forward, but he *es too intericated for exa-

night at the request of the Magistrate, and the tons

examined before Mr. Blasts, when it appeared that
AO bad been in the employ of Mr. Pollen, and last
winter was left in the charge of his house, in Berner-
street,
during the time he was in the country. Oa
the 19th day .of last January, a fire broke out at the
house, which did Considerable damage to the house
and the property in it, but did not destroy either
wholly, in consequence' of the timely arrival of as.
gins, firemen, &c. Information was seat to Mr.
Polka in the constry, and he, in consequence, cams
to London. The prisoner was for a long time ow
suspected, till Mr. Pollen, by an unexpected occOr-
mice, discovered part of his property pledged at
pawnbroker's to a very large amount, which he con-
cluded had been burnt in the fire, and after he bad
questioned the prisoner on the subject, she absconded,
which led to a suspicion that she had designedly set
the premises on fire for the purpose of plundering
them.—The prisoner was committed for further exa-
mination, when the Agents to die Westminster Fire-

other tradesmen, lately deserted their work, in corm-
queue of the masters reducing the wages. The pro-
secutor was a young roan lately kola the country ;
and the prisoners after trying every effort to entice
him from his employment, and induce him to arils,
at length threatened his life, and he acceded to their
wishes. Information however, being obtained of
their rendezvous, dicers were dispatched to the

The Nsaanus, Captain Hon. G. A. CROTTON,
arrived at Portsmouth. on Thursday from Halifax
and Bermuda. The Mors, Captain JACKSON, had
arrived at Halifax, having landed the Hon. Mr.
BARU?, Ambassador to America, at Annapolis. Mr.
B. had ao reason to feel flattered with the recep-
tion be experienced s it appeared to the Officers of
the Masa. that the Americans were appreheisive,
should they even stifles their natural curiosity to be
gratified at the moment, it might give a degree of
eclat to the arrival of the English Ambassador ; they,
therefore, shut themselves op in their houses. They
could not fire a salute, as their guns upon the fort
were ont of ardor. Eight of the NIGER'S -nen de.
sated from the boat, and no authoritative aid could
be obtained to discover their retreat. The NIGER, so
soon as she bad landed all the Ambassador's suite,
proceeded to Halifax, and was there preparing to re-
ceive on board General Sir JOHN SHERBROOKE, for
Quebec, he having been appointed Governor of Up-
ailada. The NARCISSUS was eighteen days from
