to. We wish we could add, that there was a prospect
of the, present duty of SO per cent. on foreign manu-
factured silk goods being raised, as we are satisfied that
a higher rate of protecting duty on such goods is called
for by every principle of justice and expediency.
The Forty-shilling Disfranchisement Bill went through
the Committee in the Lords last night, and the third
reading of the Bill is fixed for to-night.—lt is expected
that the debate on the third reading of the " atrocious"
Bill will not be prolonged over this evening; and that
the Royal assent will be given to it, with a large num-
ber of other public and private Bills, onWednesday neat.

CONSTANTINOPLE, 141.tecu 10.

As no doubt is now entertained of the speedy renewal of hosti-
lities, and reports have transpired of landings and attacks by the
Russians in Misimbria, Innada, and Sisebolith, armaments both
by sea and land are continued with inctelsed activity; nor has the
' commencement of the Ramadan caused any relaxation in the exer-
ltions. In fact, the number of troops that have passed through this
city within the last ten days, and have been sent partly by land to
join the army at Adrianople, and partly by sea to Roston°, as well',
as the quantity of cannon and ammunition, ii very great, and
much more considerable than at any preceding time. It is affirmed
that the Poeta means to have 300,000 men Lt the field in the next
campaign, partly from Asia, and partly from Europe. It is still
uncertain, however, 'lien the new Grand Visier will arrive at head-
quarters,
and the 'conjecture that notwithstanding the large
sums sent him by the Porte, he has not yet been able to sa-
tisfy the demands made by the Albanians of arrears of pay,
daily appears more probable. The naval armaments ate also
carried on with great activity, but the scarcity of good sailors renders
it very difficult to man the ships that are fitted out, and of *kids
tell are lying of the arsenal. Doubts are also entertained if the
present Capitan Pacha Pas•uJschi Ahmed, though he undoubtedly
possesses talents and experience, wall be aisle, from his want of
knowledge of naval affairs, to perform greater exploits than many of
his predecessors, who are suddenly removed from other offices and
placed at the bead of the Ottoman Navy. It seems to be certain that
t4c Sultan will soon go to the army, and the 13th of Ramadan is
mentioned as the day fixed for his departure, but it is supposed be
will brat go to Adrianople. The scarcity of bread begins gradually
to be felt, especially among the poorer classes. The blockade of
the Dardanelles continues, and it has been reported fur some days
past, that the Russians intend to declare the coast of Syria and
Caramania, and even Alexandria, in a state of blockade.

NURENBURG, Arm I.
We now learn that the return of his Majesty the King will take
place on the 11th May. While his Majesty was at Naples, the
Grand Duchess Helen, of Russia, gave a grand dinner, and Prince
Leopold of Saxe Coburg a ball, in hisdionaur, and the King of
Naples gave his Majesty the Grand Cross-of the Orders of St. Ja•
1/11/11111 and St. Ferdinsod.

During Ins stay at Naples, the King accidentally beard that
twelve Damian', who bad formerly enlisted in the Neapolitan srr.
vice, were languishing in prison, in consequence of their having at-
tempted to desert. His Majesty immediately interceded with the
King of Naples for his unfortunate subjects, and having obtained
their liberty, sent them home with a present iti money for their
expenses on ae road,—Numweurg Grtwjua►dewt, April Y.

A AlesicAn MAII has atruseJ this morning, left Ve.a
Crux the Bth, and the Havannab the 15th of March, by which
Vera Cris Papers have been received at the North and South
American Coffee-house to the 7th of March, which are very
barren of inte:libence ; but they still persist in the expulsion of the
Spaniard.. The Conducts left Mexico on the 15th February, wish
five hundred thousand dollars, for Vera Cruz. On the 17th of
February, twe corps of troops had a quarrel, and fought; but the
Government put au end to the dispute;
By the above conveyance, we have seen a letter from-Mexico of
the .2,d'of March, which state that aU was tranquil in that capital ;
but the Government were in great want of money, owing to con-
fidence being destroyed. The old Spaniards were hastening to the
coast to embark, as it was feared that if the Government could
nut procure money by legal means, they would have recourse to
torced loans. 1

Accounts from Constantinople state, as certain, that
a combat bad taken place between thousand Russians and eight
thoesand Turks, on the side of Baaardjilt-: it was very sanguinary,
and terminated without being decisive. A few hundred Russian
prisoners had been brought in there. Some ships, with coni, had
arrived in the capital.
