that Otifflreeks were attacked at Haloes, as they allege

mopeds which carried them over, bad retsraed to Na-
ples; sash brought beck several regiments of Neapolitan
togs. The Austrians by these accounts may seen find
sow employment for a very formidable conspiracy
was d the point of exploding at Palermo when it
was detected and suppressed. The Neapolitan Jo rids
received at Paris, contain the provisions of a Royal
Decree against hooks. The venders, rearling.room
keepers, and readers of ohnexions books, are liable to
be imprisone,l ten years, as the maximum of punishment,
and the books themselves pabliely burnt. There is an
mating reservation by which the King of Naples allows
favoured persons to read these forbidden books, for the
purpose of refitting them, but taking care that the public
eke not hove o glimpse of what the refitted hooks ma-
tch/. The Lemmata from Spain are sot important.—
They relate merely to the skirmishing which has lately
taken place between Merino's Insurgent band and the
firers opposed to it, without enabling us to add any
thing material to our former advice". Petitions are ad.
dressed from various parts of the kingdom to his Ma.
jetty, in favour of a convocation of the extraordinary
Cortes, and great complaints are made by the flovern-
cent of the prevalence of smuggling, which tends to
promote sedition as well as to defraud the reimpose. The
Cartes have been priatipally engaged in motioning the
discussion of the plan of lissom and that of the system
of public instruction."
By arrivals from Paris this day, it appears that the
French Funds have had a further rises they are

Cotters front Leipele by the last Haenhee* usil bring
accounts, that during the fair, five Jews arrived in that
town, each of them enteriag at different gates, with'
elegant coaches and four, and took up their abode at
different first-rate insole the city. It appears that
the above five gentlemen were in league together, sad
issued Dutch forged paper to the amount of 100,400/.
for which they obtained a part in merchandise and the
remainder is gold, with which they all decamped.
Soon after their departure the paper was discovered
to be forged, and immeJiately the Polk. went in
search of them, and bad the good fortune to seeare them
all. They are now confined in different dungeons at
Lelpsic.

The Select Committee from which the Report on
the state of our Agricultural interests has emanated,
ea. appointed, as will be remembered, on the motion
of Mr. Hooce, at the instance of those Agrieultarists
who bad been depnted from different districts et Rag-
land to apply to Parliament for relief, and who bold
their meetings is Old Palace Yard. The Committee
consisted of Members taken from both sides of the
noose, and who from their pursuits and property „ere
considered most competent to discuss the points at
issue, and who represented the Monied, the Com-
menial; and the Funded interns as well as that of Land.
The object of the Landholders appears to have been to
obtain g protection for the British market plait
The importation of foreige produce, or, in other words,
for raising the money value of corn, by legislative
means, to what they called a remunerating price.
Against this object the mercantile and meaufactimliag
interests, combined with that of Ministers, as
sisteat with the nattlil order ef things, and as L6'lol-
- t*.ppress, beyond endurance, the lower classes
of society, who bad been sufferers in common from the
changes that have taken place, and by imposing addi-
tional charges on domestic labour, to shut the poets of
foreign nations against the prods ctio is of sue mans-
factnres. To prove that the causes stated by the
agriculturists were not the real causes of the
distress of which they complained, and that the
remedies they sought were either impracti-
cable or improper, they brought forward counter evi-
dence and statements, acid on the most material points,
when the question came to a division, they prevailed.
At first when the repeal *f the Horse Tax war pro-
posed in the Committee, it was understood to have been
carried, bot before is could be proposed in the House,
the Committee was found to have changed their minds.
The fact is that the mercantile and ministerial interests
when united, became decidedly predominant, and it was
doubtful, it is said, whether any Iteport would have
been made this Session, had net two of the Agricultural
Members consented to withdraw their °preside° for
the sake of bringiu • the evidence and its results be-
low the House. The Report is understood to
be the work of Mr. liusussox, and from the
'attach which we bare this day presented to our
