The foreign market Is rather slack, with little doing.
A report prevailed that the Spanish Loan bad been
taken at Paris by the American bone of Williams ana
Co. but this account is not credited by intelligent
mercantile Spaniards. Private letters from Paris state
that Spanish Bonds had risen there to 691, bat the
next day fell again to 681.

We Lave received the following communication from
our 'Change correspondent, as the result of the Walk's
Quarterly meeting, this morning :

The Dank Directors have declared the interest on
Sank Stork, as before, 3 per Cent. the Ulf yearly di-
vidend. A gentleman enquired whether their fends
were equal to their discount, from 3 to 4 per cost., and
was answered in the affirmative.

Extract of a letter fruw the Agent to Lloyd's, dated
Zante, 7th August :

•' The combined Turkish Aeet, consisting of lies of
battle ships, frigates, sloops, and brigs, In all, about
Si sail, paused by this on the 2d inst. and are present
at Patras."

Extract of a letter from the Agent to Lloyd's, dated
Gijon 31st August:—

An insurgent privateer tinder Duane Ayres')
colours, fitted out at Bo►desos with 24 pounders, four
sot4ll guns, and part of bee crew frepclimen, have
been cruising off this port for I days. anti cap-
tured and plundered Nate Spanish vessels, and ran-
somed others at the entrance of Rivailes.

Private letters have bees received ale morning,
from Rouen, by which we learn, that .the Cathedral
of that city, which was exceeded by none In beauty
or magnificence, had, on Sunday last, beek totally I
destroyed by lightning. The lightning haring struck
the roof, which was covered with an immense extent of
lead, and the lead having run into a molting state, the
fire was communicated to the whole of the building.
The ravages of the times were not subdued till aloe•
day afternoon. Several houses in the neighbourhood
caught fire and were consumed, and a great number
of lives have been lost.

Paris papers, which have arrived to the 17th lost.,
bring some intelligence from Greece, but, coming
through the channel of the d net don Observer,ltis, of
coarse, of ao unfavourable character. Accordlag to
this authority, all the reported successes of the Turk.
are confirmed; the Turks have regained p ion of
the Mores, and the Oreek Senate is dissolved. In re.
f.rence to these statements, the Coiatiivtiodarl oh
serves, " We have nothing to add to the letters which
we have already published. All that we can say is,
that we have done all is oar power to discover the
truth ; we have carefully ex .mined the various probe
bilities and derided for that opinion which appeared
to us the most correct." The sews relative to Franee,referel
ehiegy to the proceedings before the A•sise Court of
Poitiers. On the 13th, the President stated, that the
Court was about to pronounce judgment of contumacy
agaisst the persons wbe had fled, and were charged
with participation in the conspiracy of Berton and hls
accomplices, but the post set off before judgment was
pronounced. The jodgmeat of the Court of Assist, le
Paris, on the four jouraals cendenseed, for the account
given of the proceedings on the Rochelle conspiracy.
has produced. it appears, a considerable amities. It
is stated that a memorial ea that decree is la the coarse
of preparation, and will be signed by the principal
lawyers of the Paris bar. The appeal i■ Caseation
was notified on Saturday last to the Clerk of the
Court. These papers bring but little intelligence
from Spain. aad that of no interest, being entirely
confined to the movements of Uuerrillas dignified with
the name of armies, but attended with no decisive re•
salt. An article from Warsaw states that the Emperor
Alexander passed the Polish army in review in the
vicinity of that capital, on the 29th ultimo. It eea-
sisted of 40,000 men.

The followiag are extracts from the Paris papas:—
A letter from Poitiers, dated the 13th. mentions that
Berton, Cairo, Slugs, Henri Predin, Sonoahault, aid
Jaglin, have suffered two of the three days allowed them
for making au Ansa to the Court of Caseation to pass
away, without observing that formality ; bat It was ex
pected they would appeal time neat day. Those sit con-
victs were tint confiaod in the %woe prima. with tit.
necessary precautions for preventing any of them from
commituog an art of desperation. The incessant la
meniations of Sesechault made it necessary to reelect
him to a separate apartment. Barton maintains his
tranquillity. Rieqae, Ledier, Alit, cad the Cheep
