LONDON:

SATURDAY, A UGUS T 15, 1818.
.........--

It would certainly be very unwise to place much
faith in the inferences drawn from the gambling
transactions of the Stock Exchange, though it is very
common in certain quarters when the Finds are ris-
ing to deduce from thence proofs of increasing pro.
verity and happy prospects ; but if the market of
Stock is any criterion of political events and circum-
stances, it would appear from the depression that
has taken place, and the rush that has been made
into the sale market within these two days past, that
some important changes are expected, and that
these occurrences are not conceived to be of
a nature to elevate the prices of the national
commodity, which is so symptomatic, and now so
mock regulates other affairs.—Large sales of
Muck were again effected yesterday, through chin.
eels sufficient to awaken suspicion that the political
hemisphere is darkening, and that the eye of appre-
hension is again turned towards America. Some of
our cotemporaries ascribe this motion in the Funds
to numerous orders from Country Bankers for the
sale of stock to enable them to supply the increasing
demands of their commercial customers ; but to our
knowledge several of these sales were made by
houses concerned in the West India trade, and but
little connected with Country Bankers. The same
effect was still more perceptible to-day, Consols
having been done at one o'clock so .low as 7b.
The potties selling, and the quantities sold, certainly
warrant a belief that a strong opinion prevails among
those likely to be best acquainted with the secret,
that discussions are on the Lapis between this coun-
try and America, not of a very pacific nature. We
have never been impressed with the permanency of
the peace with America. It appeared to be iiirddled up
for the purpose of covering. the egregious oversights
of the Ministry, and the disastrous consequences of
the war. The arrangements were, therefore, loose
and unspecified in the most material points, and the
results to be naturally expected, have already- be-
come apparent. The Treaty of Ghent will be found,
as we remarked on its first appearance, to contain
no espress guarantee for the rights of our Indian
Allies, who had been disturbed In the enjoyment of
their natural possessions in consequence of their en-
tering the war with us. The only stipulation in the
Treaty respecting the Indians whom we incited and
led to hostilitysagainst the Americans, allows the re-
storation of their lands and the peaceable enjoyment
of their possessions to depend upon the conception
formed of their good behaviour by their rivals,
though it is proved beyond all doubt, byincontestable
documents, that at a pacification the British Govern.
meet would provide a solemn guarantee for the
rights and safety of its injured Allies. Ministers
abstained, they tell at, in this 'Treaty, as well as in
the other Treaties which they had concluded in -En.

rope, from giving or esacting gairsatites, upon
principle, from implicating the (internment in fa:
lure in' the consequences of kgearantees. They
and their agents, boWevir, did not. 'abstain upon
'principle, from implicating the poor indiens in the
horrid war they were then carrying on, as will appear
from the estraordinary correspondence we publish
this day between Sir A. COCHRANE and the Indians,
bearing date in December, 1814, the very month
in which -the Peace with America teas signed:
end it remains to be seen whether their agents
have not been con►inuing the incitements to
hostility between the Indians and the Americans
which are assigned as the causes for the vengeance
that has fallen upon the victims on the Florida
frontier—whether Great Britain can espouse the
cause of these men, without becoming the patron and
apologist of such offences, for the law of nations
subjects persons found in arms among a foreign
prople, to be classed with them, and to be sharers
of their fate.

City, Holflotst One o'Clock.
The Fonds experienced a considerable depression
this morning, in consequenie of an apprehended
rapture hot vrotsn this country and America—Consois
opened at 764, and fell as low as 75. They after-
wards advanced to 75, which is about their.present
prier. , .

The accounts published respecting the QUERN re-
present her IVlAJEsve's health as continuing to im-
prove. She is said to base rode out in her garden
chair in the pleasure.g►ounds attached to the Palace
at Kew, on Thursday last, for upwards of an hour,
and to have appeared much refreshed and very cheer-
ful. We have heard very different reports of her
MAJESTY'S situation from these flattering represents.
tions, but the private rumours cannot be correct ; for
it is not in the nature of things that the PRINCE RE-
GENT should be indulging in festive celebrations at
Brighton, that any of the nearest relatives of the
illustrious Patient should betake themselves to fo-
reign climes, or to piping and dancing anywhere,
whilst their beloved and venerable parent was under•
going operations on which her life depended.

The French Ropers which hews reached no to the

12th inst., still afford no intelligence of any Interest.
Though the publication of the Secret Memorial of
the Royalists to the Foreign Powers, exposing the
pretests and objects of the late Conspiracy, has oc-
casioned much speculation in the Journals, and
turned public attention in a still stronger degree to•
wards the machinations of the plotting faction; there
is no mention of the legal proceedings. Ilgsinst the
imprisoned conspirators; and if it were trot that pri.
cite advice' keep slice the hope that the crimes of
these projectors will be lOU farther exposed and
punished, we should be led to 'oppose the prosecu•
lion had been allowed to sleep, with the intentfon of
being finally abandoned.

Tie King on Sunday had alievee of Ladle, and
among thereat gives privet' audience to the Duchess
of BRUNsWIEII Betrays, the relation of Mademoi-
selle DE ST. AULAIRE, the intended bride of the
Count Ds CAZEs, the Minister of Police. The
marriage of the Minister was to take place on Tues-
day morning, in the Chapel of the Palace of the
Chamber of Peers. The King also received, at a
private audience, on Monday, the Count nu CARA.
MAN, the French Amhaaaador to the Court of
Vienna, who had returned from thence on leave; end
the Count nu LAQARDE, the French Minister to the
Court of Munich.
The Prussian Council of State, which has closed
its deliberations, has formally declared. that the de-
finitive organization of the Grand Duchy of the
Rhine should he postponed till neat winter. The
principles established by the Decree of the High
Court of Appeal of Hesse•Ciessel, relative to the non.
payment of debts contracted by the Sovereign or the
State during the reign of .IBROME BONAPARTE, has
crested a lively sensation in Berlin. It is said that
the King of PRUSSIA had ordered the same principles
to be acted epos in all analogous matters throughout
' the Prussian Provinces which formerly made part of
the late kingdom of Westphalia. The Elector of
lizsse•Casstr. is said to be occupied with important
affairs. Interesting communications have recently
been made to his from the Prussian Goternment, re-
lative to Westphalia, perhaps on the subject above al-
luded to. It is said the result will he made known
in a few days by certain measures about to be adopted.
The French Five, per Cents. are 78f. 20c.

•We are glad to hear that the Meeting of the
Friends of Radice! Reform, adtertised to be held at
the Horns Tavern, Kennington, on Tuesday nest,
is likely to be very numerously attended, and many
of the first political characters are espected to be
present.
Yesterday the Portage's@ Ambassador had an se.
dience of the PRINCIL REGENT at Carlton-house ; as
had also Sir JoHN BORLASE WARREN.
The Archduchess HENRIETTA,CORSort of the Arch-
duke CHARLES of Arndt', was happily delivered of
an Archduke on the 29th ult. at ten at night.
It is reported, that on the Meeting of Parliament,
Sir JOHN Osnonts, Bart. will he called to the House
of Peers as Lord Hamra', by which a Represent.-
lion for the County of Bedford will become vacant.
Lord STRANOPOUD, the British Envoy in Sweden,
has succeeded in obtaining from that Court a
Decree, authorising the exportation of deals and
timber, in British shins, on the payment of she same
export duties as in Swedish vessels. Several thou-
sand tops of shipping will consequently be sent from
British ports during the present season, to receive
cargoes in those of Sweden. This permission is to
last until the end of this year; but it is almost cer-
tain that the advantages which Sweden will derive
from the increased exportation of her produce, will
induce his Swedish Majesty to prolong it.
