reign Market, therefore the Brokers and Jobbers are assensbled
on the Royal Exthange. Consols which left off yesterday at 113 ii
for February Account, ana 851 d for April Account, way, be
quoted at the same price, and all the other prices are nominal.

The Explanations of Monday &gbt in the House of
Commons led to further explanations last night in the House of
Lords, in which Lord Cionsaien took on opportunity or contradict-
ing, in direct terms, that part of Mr. Minuses statement, made the
preceding evening in the House of Commons, which related to the
existence of a plan in any quarter for breaking up the late Gomm].
Administration. TheN obis Lor d denied be had any such intention :
be knew of none such existing on the part of any other individual;
and for any one to assume that such an intention did exist, he con.
sidered as the most gratuitous assumption that ever was conceived-
In the House of Commons, an announcement by Mr.
Secretary Pam, that on Thursday next he would move for a Select
Committee to inquire into the State of the Police of the Metro-
polis, was received with high satisfaction and general and reiterated
clitering.—Mr. R. Gonson, after a very impressive speech, which
was followed by some humane and forcible observations upon the
subject by Mr. Pact, obtained leave to bring in a BM to consoli-
date the Lays relating to Lunatics, and facilitate the erection of
Lunatic Asylums.

The only article of any interest in the Pa► is Papers,
received last night,, is a report of the Speech of the
Frepch Minister for Foreign Affairs. His speech on
the opening of the debate on the Address to the Kum
occupies five column: of the Mooiteur. We have given,
under the usual head, some of the passages of the speech,
relative to the affairs of Greece, in which the question of
the independence of that country is mentioned in a man-
ner highly satisfactory to the friends of Grecian freedom.

An article in the Getman Papers, received this fore-
noon, under rise head of Vienna, confirms what has
lately appeared in former Journals relative to the
departure of the subjects of the three Allied Powers
residing at Constantinople. It appears the orders of the
Porte have been imperative on this occasion: th se
persons who had not the means of finding transpose
for themselves, had been provided with such by the
Turkish Government. In consequence of this measure,
the greatesecon,ternation was naturally the consequence
among the Franks, who, from the previous disposition
of the Porte, were little prepared for this extremiti.—
The other extracts from these papers, which we sub
join, do cot possess much interest :
BUCHAREST, Jlll. U.

In order to obtain some information on the other side
of the Danube respecting the extraordinary delay of
the mail of the 10th from Constantinople, one of the
Tartars belonging to the Austrian embassy was dis-
patched the day before yesterday to Giurgewo, with
orders to obtain, by the assistance of the Governor of
that fortress, Kutschuk Ahmed Aga, 2e•hentic infor-
mation on this subject from Rudschuk. Yesterday
evening the Tartar returned with a letter from the Di-
rector of the Customs at Rudschuk, which states that
the mail, accompanied by two Tarts, with a courier
and two merchants, arrived at Rudschuk on the-23.1 in
the morning, but could not pass the Danube, which at
present is imperfectly frozen in many parts in the mid-'
dle, so that the messengers of Kutschuk Ahmed Aga
had not been able to pass without great danger: two
days before the river was entirely frozen over.
(11n the 17th of this month an extraordinary plieno-
mepon was °burred here, the mercury in all the barn.
mum rose to an unusual height, passed all the degrees
marked upon the scale, and remained at this surprising
elevation to the 20th. when it suddenly fell very consi-
derably. The weather during those three days was
cold and dry, the wind south-east, and Reaumur's ther-
mometer at 16 degrees below Zero. On the same days
the barometer here at Vienna was also at the extra-
ordinary height of 29 inches 3 or 4 lines, the tempe-
r atur e being 12 or 13 degrees ltraumur below Zero.—

This morning at seven o'clock, the courier with the
letters from Constantinople has at length arrived. This
mooning .also, the French Papers brought the King's
Speech on opening the English Parliament; we found
in it etc I thing that we wished, and though it speaks
of the maintenance of the Tteaty of 6;h July, this is done

in a rummer which greatly diminishes the :apprehensions
for the peace of Europe. Yesterday a courier was dis
patched from this city to St. Petersburgh.

The accounts direct from Constantinople confirm the
previous statements, that all the subjects of the three
mediating Powers, without exception, must leave the
Turkish capital: the poorer individuals were aheady
put on board ships, and, as well as the lonians, weie to
be conveyed to the Archipelago. No intercession of
the neutral Ambastadoss had been of any avail. This
lIICASUIC had spread terror among all the Christians.
WARSAW, JAN. 2V.
A-divisinn of the army of General Rosen has arrived

Grand Dake Con,tantine is gone to Lublin, to which
place his Mein s,'s head-quarters were ordered a few
days axo. The Brand Doke himself is still here, and
