THE LATE STORMS.
-0.--

The weather during the past week has been very
tempestuous. The wind throughout the greater part
of Thursday night and Friday morning blew a com-
plete hurricane; the parapets of three houses in Ocoee-
street fell with a tremendous crash ; the wall erected
in front of the new church, Junes-street, was blown
down ; also a stack of chimnies at the back of Mil-
sem-street. On Saturday evening the rain descended
in torrents, accompanied with thunder and lightning,
and it did not cease until daybreak on Suede), morn-
ing; the immense fall of rain caused the river to
overflow its banks, and by Sunday afternoon the
ground, called Dolemead and•Ozmead, between Caro-
line-buildings and the River, a great portion of whirl)
has recently been covered with small tenement•, pre-
seated one wide expanse of water, and the inhabitants
of the cottages were obliged to seek shelter in the
upper apartments and upon the house-tops, whence
many were rescued by boats. The flood Las since con-
siderably abated, although the low grounds in the ri-
cinity are still inundated. Considerable damage 114%
been sustained, particularly by that class who can ill
support the loss. The flood at Fronts, on Sunday
morning, occasioned by the tremendous storm of the
preceding night, was higher than any that has been
known in that town for nearly sixty years. The de-
mage sustained amounts to several thousand pounds.
Fourteen sheep and three cows were lost ma Monday.
at Road, in consequence of the flood. There was to-
day a heavy fall Of snow on Mendip. The cellars of
great part of the houses in Wells were inundated en
Saturday, from the great fall of rain. During the
►iolent gale of Thursday night, the malt-bopse of Mr.
Beam, on Steeple-Asbtoa Common, was blown down,
and the roof carried oft. In the same gale a wall at
Melkshass Spa was blown down ; mush other damage
was done in the neighbourhood. as windows blown in,
trees torn up. &c.—(BatA C►ironicle.)
Almost every evening during last week, storms of
thunder and lightning. *With perfect hurricanes of
wind and rein, have visited this city, and have been
equally prevalent in every part of dm kingdom. In
this vicinity the Wye and the Legs having overflowed
their banks, the floods rendered the reads impassable
i 6 many parts of the country. and delayed the mails
and coaches beyond their anal period of arrival.—
We have beard of several outhouses, rick', being
injured by the wind. which ales levelled many el she
stately ornaments of the forests and orchards lo.dif
ferent situations.—(Gleacesfer Jounce)

Minister of Finance, who was. h is said, to be re-
tained. The last debates of the Cortes have produced
a very good effect on the public opinion ; the most vio-
lent talk only now of obedience. With- regard eves to i
the obedience of the Chiefs at cats wod Seville. then
can hardly exist a doubt ; fot at this mot ent. whatrer+

any resistance; and what satisfies me particularly po•
this point is the opinion I heard expresed this intarnind.
by one of the leaders of the opposition, who coiseZl.
all resistance impossible from the moment the
• •
had explained. This manner of thinking is also ge-
neral ; and the moral force of the Cortes, which is im-
tnet.se, is a great source of confidence to all the friends,
of order. A report has been spread that 'Velem). the
• Commandant -at Seville, had taken the field at theheatl.
of some battalions. It was first put in circulation yes-,
terday, sled not being confirmed to-day, appears,con-
' telnently to he unfounded. Madrid is perfectry,
teats-
quil. otwithstanding the important discussion.,
that have lately talon place, the city has never beep!
more quiet : there Las not been the smallest symptogs.
of agitatios.
PARIS, Dec. 24.—Nothing yet appears fixed or.
decided it, the position or movements yf the French
Ministry. On Saturday there was a sitting of the
Chamber of Deputies, but no question was mooted onl
which a trial of ministerial strength, or of party po-
li!ics,
could take place. The right side mustered in-
great force—the Liberals were at their post. and the
centre war newt)! deserted. Three of the Ministers,
who ire members of the Chamber, (Messrs. de Coe-
Villele, and Peyronnet,) attended in their
places, but were not culled upon to speak. The three
twelfths of the taxes were granted them as a matter of
costae. It would indeed have been unreasonable, by
- - the refusal, to have announced a prospective distrust
t
-of men against whom experience had as yet establish-
.,
ad no act of impoiicy, and on whom positive declara-
tion bad fixed no fatal pledge. Their promised law on
the press, and their first despatch from the Foreign-
office, will constitute at once the test of their poll-
deal system and the trial of their othcial strength.—
If we could lend faith to reports current in the bast
informed political circles. their decision in the latter
case must be prompt and unhesitating, as Russia is
said at last to bare declared openly her hostile intro-
Coos with, enrol to Turkey. All the letters, com-
mercial as well as political. from the cities of the
north of •Ettropc, such as Berlin, Petersburg. Riga,
* and Leipsk, speak of war between Alexander and the
Porte as no longer doubtful. The funds of Russia,
anti the rate of exchange on that empire have, in con-
sequence, been affected at Frankfort and Paris.
You will have received by the ordinary post, hla-
drid papers and letters to the 13th inst.; and the
French Government journals of this morning will sup-
ply you with the usual assortment of anarchical dis-
turbaoces and revolutionary movements. It is need-
less to mention, that the former are as silent on those'
disturbances and movements as the accounts of the
latter are exaggerated and alarming. The Cortes
bare displayed much firmness, wisdom, and trumpet, in
their deliberations and decision on the state of Anda-
lusia. 1 have seen letters from Madrid of the 15th,
two days later than those of the ordinary courier.
Every thing was then quiet. A change of Ministry.
though highly probable, was not then finally decided on.

(EXTRACT OF A LETTER FRON NEC TORE, DEC. 1.1
A brisk correspondence is going on between the
Secretary of State and the new Spanish Minister An-
degas. It is supposed to relate to Florida affairs,
and the protest, of Messrs. P. Callova and Coppinger.
The affairs and claims under the Florida treaty,
it
am not much mistaken, will present a scene such as
has not been often represented. There is a mystery that
remains to be unravelled. It appears that Don Oais
was willing to claim a larger stun than five millions
• in the treaty, but that the American negotiators would
not consent to insert more than five millions ; the claim
altogether amounting perhaps to forty millions,
though probably not more than twenty are good.

Accounts bare bees, received from Odessa, by way
of Paris, dated theld inst:, stating tliat fresh Massa-
errs have taken place at Constantinopte. *o mention
is made in them of the report current some days ago,
that the Sultan bad been murdered, and, that.the head
of the Janissaries exercised the powers of Government.
La tters from Spain, us stated in another part of our
paper, as well as the public journals, are of a favour-
able character; The sealed report of the Commission
on the King's Message was opened and read in a sit-
ing of the 11th inst. This report is of a length which
preclatles its insertion in our columns to-tisy.
—lt sums up the errors of Ministers, strongly urges
their dismissal, and recommends that the Cortes should
second any efforts of his Majesty to that end. The
following are the words with'which it closes :—" The
conclusion is, that it is necessary to address a message
to his Majesty, in which the Cortes shall set forth—
" 1. Tbat in ostler to appease the apprekensiun and
distrust of the nation; and give to Llovertinsent Ate
re quisite influence, it is expedient that his fasieety
should deign to make that reform in his admisistwa-
lion which circumstances render absolutely necessaft.
" 2. That if his Majesty should think any NON"
tive measures requisite for the 'remedy of the evils
and abases complained of, the Cortes would he ready
to take into consideration any projet of law which
his Majesty, in his wisdom, should deem fit to

of 281, against 13.

propose."
This second part of the report was attacked with
warmth by several deputies, who maintained that if
Ministers were guilty, they should be summoned to
the bar ; on the contrary. their conduct and their re-
putation could not be attacked in any way whatsoever.
The Minister of the Interior made some observations in
justificntios.
M. Calstrava;a member of the Committee, observed
to the Minister, that having lost all confidence in
public opinion, he saw no other remedy than a change
of Ministers.
M. Lopez Nlarcial was of opinion that Ministers
ought to be called to the bar to justify themselves.
After this short discussion the sitting broke up, to
be resumed and continued next day.

The Dublin journals received to-day, give the ac-
count we hare inserted in another part of our paper,
of the awful proceedings which have taken place under
the Special Comtuissics at Limerick. The impressioti
made by them upon the popular mind appears to be ef-
fectual. The papers of to-day are silent as twthe com
mission of any further outrage.

Our readers will have observed that, however otter
journals may be liable to the charge of witbholdinp
" any thing to give the lamer", the tradesmen or
any class, such information as was calculated to
check the ruin which now spreads over the country,"
the Statesman is completely esempt. For a lons time
past we have unremittedly occupied a large portion of
our columns with discussions on the subject which is
so deeply interesting to the public, the depression of
the markets and the effects of that depression on the
owners mad occupiers of land. This we have don.
not only because we thought it of the highest im-
portance in itself, but because we saw it likely to
prove one of the principal moving causes ofT thin
retrenchment and reform. which in spite of
the reluctance of the advocates of corruption meet. ha
some degree. at least, take place. without delay. We
have pursued this plan for other reasons besides
—to convince the Agriculturalists, both landlords and
tenants, that all the attempts they may be encouraged
to make to obtain high prices by restriction. air
equally absurd, impracticable, and anklet ; sad. ow
warn the public early against such schemes of this
kind as weak or designing men sleight setos foot. 1 n our
paper of yesterday were various articles, of so promi-
nent a nature as did sot require to be,pointed out,
which tended to shew, in a convinciag miliallef. the in-
etie,aay of every expedient to Wiese the agricultural
diatresses, short of a large abatement of taxatiou ;
and, today, we bare inserted, with a similar view,

stressed, without previously endeavoering to lessen
hike injustice of their system towards either the public
or private debtor. One of the objects of the Eat, of
ITANBOort, in his letter and proposed' petition, is to
rectify this injustice, by obtaining a reduction in the
amount of lanes and other payments, in the same pro-
portion as the value of the currency has been
enereased.,:, This appears to his Lordship fair,
and likely to be satisfactory to the freehold-
ers of gent; yet, his Lordship's father, by
-bringing his Bill into the House of Lords to give
a more poWerful operation to the B.tnk of England
notes, sanctioned the tenant in paying their land-
lords for rent, contracted for in gold, a paper currency
that was depreciated to two-thirds of its nominal value.
For this act his late Lordship, for once in his life,
was popular among his rustic neighbours ; but, let
the consequence be mtrked, the Landlords were, in
justice to themselves, obliged, of course, to raise their
rents, and the high rents, which were the natural con-
sequence of the me4sure they applauded, now form one
of the grievances of which they complain.

highest importance.
It was yesterday currently reported in the higher

It is with pleasure we have to state, that the ex-
ports of British manufactures to the United States,
from this port, are at present more considerable than
has been known for some time past ; and not on the
manufacturers account, but in consequence of orders
from America, and, we believe, in many instances.
the goods are paid for before they have this country.

intact POPLINS AND TABINSTS.-The prohibition
which heretofore existed upon the importation of
Irish poplins and cabinets into Great Britain has besot
dons away, and the same may now be imported upon
payment of the proper duties, whether imported foe
sale or private use. All such articles are required,
epos the importation. to be sent to the Custom House
for the purpose of being charged with the duties ; and
if any shall be imported without the payment of the
duties, they will be liable to seizure, and the parties
concerned in the unshipping to a prosecution for
treble the value.
The following is from The Charleston Courier :
" By Thomas Ogier, on Monday. the 3d of December,
