take place between the gnstrian Citancery aid the
Russian Embassy, and that in general great activity
has been observed to prevail amongst diplomatic per.
sons for some days past. The news from Spain is of
the most favourable kind, ae to the political state, of
the kingdtsm: but the fever is, unfortunatelv,•my
little abated, in spite of every precaution. The for,

Wilton President of the Sanatory Junta at Barceloaa,
'being informed that the notaries refused to take the
declaration of the last will of sick. persons, has iss,ied
an ordinance, which enacts that every rotary or public
officer refusing to attend any sick person whatcverin
his official capacity, shall for the first offence be fired
25 francs, and for the second, be removed from his
employment." All cummunication with Spain on the
side of Bayonne, appears to be cut off. An order has
been expedited by the Spanish government to their
Envoy at Lisbon, in the quality of Ambassador Extra.
ordinary, to return to Malritl. This, liolvveit,
appears to proceed not from any idea of inter-
ruptieg the intercourse or good understanding
that prevails, but from mere economical arrange-
ments. The immediate return of the Duke de Cazes,
is asserted in one of the French papers to be expezted,
in order that he may proceed from thence in a few
dave to resume his post as Ambassador at Laotian.
From a report of the attendants of the public health
at Marseilles, to his Britannic Majesty's Consul at
that port, is would appear that the few cases MIL!,
Lai appeared in that place and its vicinity have ter-
minated, if not in every instance fortunately, yet
without becoming in any the source of contagion.

By private accounts from Hanover, we learn that
the pleasure which his MAJESTY has derived from his
visit to his continental dominions, is nut without
alloy. Besides an attack of the gout, which pre-
vented him enjoying some of the grand totertaintneots
prepared for him, his MAJESTY, it seems, has *IA
with some affairs of a political nature, which are
neither quite expected our agreeable. Instead .of
receiving Ambassadors with compliments of conos-
tulation, the Erste, has to meet Ministers •of State
from Foreign Courts, to enter into negoeiatiuus of
the most serious importance.—Cuuut Lieven his ;.r-
-rived, and Prince Metternich was momentarily ex-
pected, to discuss the affairs of Turkey with the Mar-
quess of Londonderry. In The Courier of last night
some obscure . intimation was given of what appears
to be coming to pass. It is there stated in a letter
from Vienna, that while advices from Turkey would
lead us to suppose that every thing is arranged, (tea
other quarters we are led to entertain doubts owtas
subject. In addition to this, it is asierted that by letter*
from Russia it appears that Baron Strogonisrettlilfir
an interview with the Emperor Alexander, at Witepsk,
when the affairs of Turkey will come again under taw
sideration; and it is said that the question will .be
then determined whether the whole of the Russian
army will be withdrawn from the Turkish frontiers,
or otherwise.—The rumour is that the Cabinet ,of
Austria has received dispatches of the greatest juggle-
ance (rota the Austrian Minister at Petersburg ; and
that in consequence eur Ministers are now begiankog
to perceive that the Russian Cabinet is too fir iVortis
for them.

When such creatures as the Alderinen of Skinners
Alley and the Slop gang are allowed to vegetate untler
the shade of Government, the discontents of Englad,
and the insubordinate spirit of Ireland are easily st•
counted for ; and though such enormities are attended
with a train of evils, the same intolerant system is still
persevered in. Can the people of England or 'relate'
hope for any thing like liberality from a junta that
has allowed these Orange wreckers to exist as an organ
lied body for 25 years; setting the law at defiance--
torturing and murdering their abused and Walled
countrymen, withont an attempt to put them dews
until the KING'S arrival ? What can be hoped free
dealers in seats in -- ? Or from those who ar
proved of the Kiss's name being attached to the
Manchester ---? Or from the importers of
Italian witnesses, who would have destroyed the hobo
of the QUEEN ? Or from those who would hsrs
sanctioned the murder of a KING'S subject, at the feer
cal of his Wife ? Ot from those whe dismissed a vs.
triable and honorable Magistrate, blessed with the feel-
ings of an Englishman?' Or from those who ad-
vised the dismissal of a General Officer, who had ob•
tabled the honors and approbation of ev-ry coaell
head in Europe, as well as of his late 11l.siesTv, and
of the Prince REGEAT, our present ? Wh3t "5
be expected from such men ? nothing that is goo t
great, liberal or interesting, who never look fart!! a
than their own interest. Such like men would will•
ingly render the Royal prerogative an instru:nenx
is
forward their Own designs, and subjugate the people
to military coercion.
These are considerations which should oreepy 'be
attention of every Briton; they are dreadful to

Trade is a mere mockery. A retaliating
