repeals opened this morning at 794 sellers fur the Account ;loon
after, the market became very heavy, and Consols receded to 794
for the Account, with a good deal doing. The Hebrew party
continue selling. This sudden decline is wholly attributed to spe.
eulation.—The Foreign market also appears very heavy, Mexicans
which was at the opening of the market at 611, are at present 60%
to 4.

CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.

Consols, whkh were at the commencement of the market at 79i,
grashtally declined to T 9. for the Account; since which they have
been alternately buyers and sellers at 791, with a good deal doing,
and remain stationary at the above price. Consols for Money are
at 711§.—In the Foreign market there is little doing.

The cause of the decline in Consols is attributed to a new issue
wf Rachequer Bills; also, a report that some obstacles have taken
place in the negotiations between the Russians and Turks.

A Flanders and Dutch Mail has brought us tl e All-
gemeine Zeitung of the 14th, and other Papers to the
20th instants The Emperor and Empress of AUSTRIA
were expected in their capital on the 22d instarrt. An
article from Vienna states, that a child of the Archduke
' CHARLES is ill of the measles, which will occasion a
delay in some projected Royal movements. There is
some meagre news from Greece. The sickness prevail-
ing at Groningen, instead of diminishing, seems to be
rather on the increase. On the Bth, the number of sick
in the city and its suburbs amounted to 8,195, which,
out of a population not eiceeding 40,000 at the very
utmost, is an enormous proportion. In the surrounding
country also the number of sick was very great. A
Pr, clamation was issued on the 11th, ordering that the
dead should not be buried later than the third day under
a penalty of 50 florins. Yet the Autumn Fair was going
to be held, and the Academical Lectures to be given
as usual. The disease extended its ravages over the
whole of East Friesland, but seemed to be less fatal in
the districts near the Sea. In the single week between
the 7th and 14th inst. 142 individuals died at Gronin-
gen.—The following are extracts:
NAPOLI DI ROMANIA, AUGUST 20.

• Athens is closely blockaded by the Turks, but they
hare no artillery to act against the citadel. Shakim has
marched from Tripolizza towards the plain of Corinth.
A small party of Arab foragers has been surrounded
and made prisoners by the Greeks.
The Greeks fear lest he should open a communication
by the Isthmus of Corinth with the Turks in Attica
but this is an operation which it would be necessary to
support by sea, and it does not appeal that the Turks
are likely to take much trouble to carry it into effect.

It is affirmed, that according to the new plan for the

organization of the Courts of Justice, which will be laid
before the Members in the Session, which will be open ed
at Brussels on the I6th October, there will be seven pro-
vincial Courti of Justice for the whole kingdom, four
In the South, three in the North; viz. at Brussels,
Ghent (for the two Flanders), Mons, and Liege ; the
Hague, Groningen, and Nimeguen.

All the Journalists at Brussels have received notice,

that, conformably to a law of the year VI. of the French
. Republic, they are either to reduce their Paper to the
• dimensions prescribed by that law, or to pay a stamp
duty at the tate there fixed. We (the Journal de la
Belgique) have preferred thi former, not to increase the
price of cur Journal.
ISth.—N3w that it is certain that an Ambassador is
appointed to the See of Rome, we may be allowed to
hope that the differences with that Court will be at

length removed. Various reports are indeed spread,
and, what is singular is, this the most improbable are

the most readily credited by some persons. Thus, for
instance, some are so' sanguine as to say, that a con.
cordat will be concluded in a few weeks; others say, in
a few days. Without expecting a speedy conclusion, we

hope, with all good Catholics, fora happy result, espe-
cially as the Couit of Rome seems to be now better

informed with respect to the intentions and the acts of
our Sovereign.
MOSCOW, Amor 14 (26).

On the 4th (16th) of this month, her Imperial High-
ness the Grand Duchess Helen visited the University of
Alo:cow, and the cAbinets,-acc. belonging to it.

A new edition has just been published of the general
Tariff of Customs, with all the modifications that haie
been made in it during the last five years. Accounts
from Kasan of the 27th July, say, that after a conti-
nuance of extremely hot weather for many weeks, ac-
companied with a thick fog, which made the sun look
like a ball of fire: a dreadful thunder storm burst aver
the city on the 10th of July, at six in the afternoon, by
which considerable damage was done. Two sentinels
were killed, and the lightning struck several buildings,

'among other% the Church.* our Lady of- Tifasel the
fellow in. the Church were drown down, but though
none were hurt, WNW women and old men have been.
ill limn the fright.
The water in the Wolga bas fallen considerably this year ; islets
have appeared in some placies, and the river is retiring from its left
bank, which confirms the conjecture of some persons, that the
Wolga formerly Rowed near the elevation in the town of Kasan
itself, then by the Village of Ometeva, the Monastery of the Re-
surrection, and soots in the same direction.

Intelligence from Moscow states, that the Imperial
Coronation took place on Sunday, the 5d instant. Some details
are given in a preceding column. The ceremony was considerably
curtailed, in consequence, it is said, of the delicate and precarious
state of health of the young Empress, as it commenced at ten o'clock
in the morning, and was finished at half-past twelve. Discharges
of Artillery announced the completion of the gorgeous proceed-
ings to the multitudes, who greeted the Eaireaoa and EMPRESS
as they proceeded to and from the Cathedral, with loud and enthu-
siastic acclamations. The ancient Cathedral, which is very small,
could not contain more than five hundred persons, and of those
scarcely one-fourth were accommodated with seats, which occa-
sioned great disappointment to numerous individuals, even of the
first class. That part of the Kremlin where the procession passed
was entirely closed, and an extensive scaffolding was erected, the
seats of which varied from twenty-five to seventy rubles. Great
part of the ceremony resembled the Coronation of our Sovereign at
Westminster. The City was illuminated three successive evenings,
and the venerable Towers of the Kremlin were one entire blaze of
variegated lamps. The Grand Duke CONSTANTINE walked in the
procession, thus giving the sanction of his presence to the solemn
act, which placed the Imperial Crown on the head of his brother;'
but be left Moscow two days after, and returned to Warsaw.

The Etoik of Tuesday, and the other Papers of the
day before, have reached us. Intelligence from Madrid to the
Bth inst. announces that whilst the Government dreams of revolu-
tionizing Portugal, the few regular troops which it possesses begin
to quit its service, and, without leave of absence, to emigrate to the
Portuguese territory.—The intelligence from Lisbon comes only to
the sth inst. It states that fresh arrests bad taken place of distin-
guished persons, who were found to have been implicated in the
last conspiracy.—The Etoile gives a letter from Mr. ET/lARD, which
repeats and confirms all the favourable accounts lately received from
Greece. It also extracts from the Gazette of Florence, a letter
dated Napoli di Romania, the Bth of August, in which the total
defeat of the CAPTAIN Nora, in his third attack on Samos, is con-
fidently re-stated; and the Greeks are not only said to have beaten
the Egyptians in several engagements in the passes of Leondari and
Cariteni, but to have pursued them as far as Tripolizza, where they
succeeded iu carrying off their magazines and provisions. It is
also said that the Seraskier had been obliged to retire from before
Athens beyond Thermopylae.

THE KING.

WINDSOR, Sirrremmt 20.

His Martin' left the Royal Lodge at three o'clock yesterday
afternoon, accompanied by the Loan &SIVA an, and drove himself
for an airing of three hours' duration in his pony phaeton. His
blssurry first visited Virginia Water, and remained there some
time giving personal directions to the workmen employed in making
the several improvements ; he then drove to the New Lodge in
the Forest, and returned to the Royal Lodge by Sandpit-gate, and
at seven o'clock dined with his suite.

The Km made a similar excursion this day.
Her Royal Highness the Princess AUGUSTA left Frozmore Lodge
yesterday morning in her travelling carriage for London. The
Princess returned in the evening to dinner.

The Duchess of KENT, accompanied by the Princesses
VICTORIA and kiwis:oar, arrived at her apartments at the King's
Palace, Kensington, about five o'clock yesterday afternoon, from
Tunbridge Wells.
Sir HERBERT TAYLOR transacted business yesterday
morning with the Duke of You, previous to holding a Levee at
his Office, in the Horse Guards, as Military Secretary to the Com-
mander in Chief. Sir WILLOUGHBY GORDON, Quartermaster Ge-
neral, also transacted business yesterday with his Royal Highness.
Sir Heasar 11Across') and Mr. M‘Gamou, Serjeatit Surgeon to the
Kum, visited his Royal Highness yesterday.
The Marquis de PALAIELLA, the Portuguese Minister,
transacted business yesterday afternoon at the Office of the Secre-
tary of State for Foreign Affairs, in Downing-street.
Lord SIDMOUTH, who is on a tour on the Continent
with Lady Simeouru, and the Misses ADDINGTON, is expected to
return at the end of this month.

Mr. CLEWS, the King's Messenger, arrived in town
yesterday, from Moscow, after a journey of almost unexamp!ed
rapidity, he having quitted the ancient capital of the Czars on the
Bth instant, and therefore performed his journey within the short
space of twelve days. The Coronation took place on the 3d instant.
Tms ARBlL—Detachments of recruits arrived in town
yesterday from Bristol, and received orders to embark this morning,
on board a steam vessel in the River, for Gravesend, on route to
join their respective Corps and Depots, at Chatham, Canterbury,
and Dover.

IMPERIAL DISTILLERY COMPANY.--A General Met-
ing of the Shareholders of this Company was summoned
to be held yesterday at their office, in Mark-lane; but
at the time appointed neither director, Solicitor, nor
Secretary appeared. Mr. PETER MOORE sent a letter,
stating that he did not think it necessary to attend ;
another Director was enjoying himself at Margate ; the
Solicitor was detained by Chokra Morbus ; and the
Secretary was absent from a motive of convenience.
In this dilemma, Mr. CLARK was voted to the Chair,
when, after some discussion, a string of Resolutions was
pa,sed, and a Committee was formed, consisting of
Messrs. CLARK, FORMAN, and TAYLOR, with power 10
take steps,sivil or ciimilial, to compel the Directors to
pay back the price of the shares.
ENGLISH °Nina. House.—After The Last Guerilla,
the Farce of the Actress of AU Work, was performed,
last night, to afford CLARA FISHER an opportunity of
once mole displaying her versatile powers upon the
London boards. She has been too long known to the
public, to excite wonder as a mere juvenile prodigy ;
but without the aid of the marvellous, she has real cle-
verness and humour, which cannot fail to attract ad-
miration, and afford entertainment. The entertain-
ments concluded with Presumption, or, The Fate of
Frankenstein, when Mr. T. P. COOKE, " from Paris,"
resumed his performances. Mr. COOKE needs no Pa-
risian fame to establish his character as a melodramatic
petforsner. He has successively figured with marked
success, at nearly all the Theatres in London. The
monster, in Frankenstein, has been the most successful
of his representations. It is sufficiently monstrous,
without appearing unnatural and strikingly terrific,
without being more extravagant than the-extravagance
of the story justifies. The only change in the piece was
in its termination. Frankenstein, and the being of his
creation, instead of being smothered under an avalanche,
as before, perish at sea. The new scene is ingeniously
designed and skilfully managed. The House was full.
BIBLE SOCIETY SCHISM.---A complete schism has
taken place in the Bible Societies on the subject of the
Apocrypha, which the parent Society in Landon insist
on ri taming. In consequence, almost all the Scotch
Societies have withdrawn from the parent Society, and
the latter, we understand, is now in a state of utter
.disunion.
