DUTCH AND HAMDCIIGH MAILS.

BIRLIN. JAY. 22.—The important Ortionnanee re-
specting the public debt of the l'rtoaan Itlonarchy, pub-
lished to our newspapers this day., has produced an ex-
remely favourable eilect on the I..hatege, as well as on
:he public in general.
Mr. I►trtaaarat:n, JAN. 112.—At the same time with

he new 'Lard, a !sew regulation of the Customs has
also been pnblii.Leat. It is very long. All former Or-
lonnances on the saliva are revoked, so far as they are
tut confirined by the present decree. This imperial de-
Irce states, that from the time that the hintflout of Po-
said was united with the Russian empire, his Majesty's
are has been constewly direetral to fottnal the provenly
•I ti la States, as far as trade anal manufactures ate con-
ernsel, on the most complete reciprocity of advantages
ietueen the subjects of both; treaties had, therefore,
wen concluded with Austria anal Prussia, Ste. The ge-
'eral principles for the operation of this traffic iu the
tussian Custoul-houses, are the following:—
" let. The effects of this Tariff extend to all sea and
anal Custoui-houses mud carriers in It übsia and Poland,
xcept those along the Asiatic frontier, tor which there
,re sepacate
"2d. The Tariff heroines in force on the ls; January,
.v4O.

" 34. Foreign merchandise imported into Russia in
519, and for whirl' the doter! liar,. nut been paid by
he tat January. 1,20, are to pay them according to the
:ariff of 1316.

" 4th. It is detertn;neil in the first part of the Ordon-
motet on the Customs, what goods me al:nit eil to he
tiported by this T.iritf, and by what lustoupliouses and
arrierk

sth. For all articles of importation' and exportation
• olouhle doily is too be paid—lst. Upon the weight,
he measure, anti the bee of the goods;—and td.
to the value, according to the principles especially laid
town in the tariff. The duty is fixed io the Russian
•ilrer, het in the Custom-liaises in the Russian empire
- to be paid in notes of the bank of the empire, at the
sed rate of exchange, which will be published at the
sonelosion of every year for the calculation of the duties
• 'or the year followisig ; with the vsreption of linen,
roolien, and leather manufactures of Prussian origin,
or which, when they are proved to be such, the duty
nay be paid al the :awl frontiers of Russia in Itussian
•ilver coin. In the Itus.ian Custouidiouses, or the king-
Inno of Poland, the merchants have the option of pay-
ool the duty on all goods either in Ittassi•oi silver coin,
or in bank-notes, according to the rate of exchange
.chen published for each year, ur in Polish currency.
6th. Though by tiiistariff a double duty is imposed,
tamely, an import and a consoimption duty, they shall
both be paid at once on the clearance of goods.
" 7th. The deduction fixed on the tare is tilted by par-
inler tables of imports, for all liqniol goods; hut if dry
roods only, fur Prussian linen, woollen and leather
rives; far the other dry import articles no tare is fixed,
sat it will be estimated according to special tables drawn
ip for the Cost -houses. Every inerchaut who will
not agree to the •lecluction per cent. fur the tare by these
• ables, has a right to require that the goods be weighed
Iv themselves. For all exports front Cassia, without
xerption, a certain &daimon' fur tare is fixed."
STioceriot.st. Jest. la.—The expectations irf a mild
:inter have non horn e bare seld had a
amre severe and derahle rold, and never perhaps a
rester quantity of snow. In Nofillanol the roll was
•xtreme. Letter front Calix say, that on the 3lst of
)*member Iteatiaur's thermometer stood at 45 below the
reefing point.
On arrogant of the high rate of exchange, his Majesty
.as leaned an ordunnance respecting the necessity of
ronomy, and of limiting the eonsoimption of foreign
articles of luxury ; and retreats his subjects to row ribute,
or this means, to kursive the tourer of exchange, fur
hick purpose his Majesty has himself made great sacri-
ices. His Majesty signifies further, his intention of
nun issuiug an ordunnance against sninggling and
rands on the Custom., which has been deferred only he-
-.ruse his lajesty had hoped it would not he necessary.
COPEN•AGEN, JA,f.n.—The Roan is again open, a
osionsv hewing art in no Weetwendayt but is. rise night be-
wren Wednesday and Thnroulay, after a violent storm of
bander and lightning, the thaw ceased, and the cold,
which we have bad for ten weeks, returned. In the
;rest Belt we now see lofty icebergs. Souse persons
liink these icebergs have been rent asunder from the
ice at the Pole; others, that they have been formed by
an aecuisanlation of the ire in the felt it,self.
Riot, JAN. -On the 18th 're expect a very solemn
end interesting ceremony. The new CO:lPtitillion of the
peasants, confirmed hy his Majesty the Emperor, con-
:rising their tonosecipa:ion from vassalage, will be pro-
d:limed on that day.
HAusuiter, JAN. '29.—The mild weather continues,
but the Elbe is still covered with ice.

AUNT/ROAM, FRR.2.-Our papers are titiltappily lillrrl
se:th the most afflicting account• of the oliparrlleled
damage done M the staileti tweaking lip of the ice, sod
the or •rfloitinif of our riverg. The water, bus ever, be-
-gins to subside.
