ed to visit his Majesty, an to report their opinion on
his ability to undertake the journey without inconve-
oience and without danger.
" In France the Government seems eager for immedi-
ate hostilities, hot their preparations are not in propor-
tion to their zeal. • A report on the stars of the army is
said to have been transinit.ed by a General Officer to the
Duke d'Angouleme, and by him laid before the Council
of Ministers, which, if it has not damped the ardour of
the crusaders, has at least occasioned them some misgiv-
ings. This report states, that the army is not prepared
for immediate operations either by its numbers, materiel,
or its spirit. The Prcsident of the Council is c.iid to have
observed, that the fault of inadequate preparation did not
lie with him; that be, ail Miniver of Finance, allowed the
necessarsr fonds, and that the Minister of War alone-was
responsible for their use, or for not demanding more. In
consequence of this dissatisfaction with Belluno, it was
stated that the porteftuille of war was offered to Mar.
mont, who declined it unless 200,000 men and 400 mil-
lions of francs were placed at his disposal for carrying on
the war. The Ministry are certainly dissatisfied with
Belluno, but whether he will be immediately dismissed
is not so certain. The utmost number of troops as yet
assembled on the frontier does not exceed 35,000 men.—
The first division cannot be io line at the beginning of
April. No wonder that the Duke &Amp:oakum should
still be opposed to the war. A bon met is current con-
cerning his Royal HigLness, vriiich supposes his reluet-
&lnce, and states its reason Le Duc d'Angoulense est

STOCK gECIUNGE, SIEINPAST
Consols opened this morning at t3lll, at which Priee they
remained steady during the morning. It is stated that
tbstEspressfrans Paris has brought the French rands
7740, but this price has not been offisially,mmomicedop
to the present hone. Spanish at Paris wits 28k; a fall in
two days of 41 per Cent. The debates in the Cortes,
and the departure of the Duke D'Angouleme, has had
some effect is the foreign market this morning, owing to
the open confession of its members that the French
army would reach Madrid without opposition. The
steadiness of our Consols is attributed to this country
remaining neutral, and no warlike preparations being
made on the pa►t of our Government. Some business
was doing in the market in the earlier part of the morn-
ing, but not of magnitude.
FOREIGN MARKET.-oWilig to the information from
Spain and France this morning, Spanish opened at 29,
went down to 27i, 26i, with a beery Market, and scarcely

On Saturday, a Cabinet Conncil Wai assembled at

A few day since the Hon. Mr. Sussex Lenox left town
with despatches for the lonian Islards.
The attack of gent, from which Mr. Canning is slowly
recovering, was so severe, that he could not fur several
days be removed from the Foreign Office, where the pa-
rcxysm seized him.
gxtraot of a letter from the Agent to Lloyd's at for
deaux, dated March 7:-" The fear of a war with Eng-
land has compelled many houses to suspend their ship-
"meats both fur the East and West Indies. There
has been very heavy weather in the bay for several days."
" According to accounts received by the Arabella packet,'
which ssiled from Lisbon on the 2nd instant, and arrived
.at Falmouth on Tuesday last, the attempt to effect s
change in the Portuguese Ministry had produced a very
.stroog sensation at Lisbon. When the packet sailed, a
considerable degree of confusion prevailed. There ran
be 11 tle douht that the project has been frustrated. The
Portuguese Cortes continued firm in their determhiation
to rnake.common canoe with Spain, in misting the threat-
ened attack of the French Government.—({Vert Briton.)
The number of passengers from Dover to Calais, and
from Calais to Dover, was i n ordinary times pretty equal.
Fur some time past it has been observed, that Otose rout-
ing to France was considerably less. Between the 341
and the 9th inst. five packet-boats arrived at Calais, with
191 passengers; .and seven sailed for England, with 3911
passengers.—(Constitetionnel.)
PLYMOUTH, MARCH 13.—Yesterday the four guard-
ships lying here received orders to fit agreeahly to the
orders irsued to them in January 1817, and to enter
men, to the number they were then; the Britannia to
have an increase of 217, the others 165 men each.
PORTYMOUTH, MARCH 15.—0 n Tuesday orders were
received here to fit the three goardships at this port, viz.
the Queen Charlotte,Ramillies, and Albion, and put them
into a state of full peace establishment, the same as they
were in the year 1817. The number of men in the
Queen Charlotte will thereby be increased from 150 to
360, with three additional Lteutenants ; and of the two
other ships, from 135 to 300. with two additional Lieute-
nants to each. This order is regsrded as having one of
two objects in view,--either the exercise of the guard-
ships during the ensuing summer on a cruise, or as pre-
paratory to their more efficient equipment as a squadron
of observation, should the present menaced invasion of
Spain by France terminate in a war between time coun-
tries. No orders of a correspondent import, or having a
more warlike arpect (if these can be so denuminated),
have been yet received by any of the other official depart-
ments here. The s•true orders have been issued to the

guard ships at the other pone, which constitute, together,
a force of ten sail of the line. The following are their
names and stations : —A t Portsmouth—Queen Charlotte,
108, Admiral Sir James Hawkins Whitahed, K.C.8.,
Captain Baker Hay ; Ramillies, 74, Captain Edward
Brace, C.B. ; Albion, 74, Sir Wm. Hoste, Ran., K.C.B.

Many admonitions have our rulers had to urge and
guide them at the present crisis. The wisest men on
earth have counsellettthein ; and what is mdre, they are
warned by the powers above. In the Loyal Alm:snack
by FRANCIS Moons, the Vox Stellaruoa, for the latter
end of this month, says—
' 1, The conjunction of Sol and the Goi of War has
pore meaning than I dare tell; though it does, not augur

of Parliament, now assembled, do not antler thu ;ucky

man not even when In full Parliament met: and if they
let the celestial influences elude their grasp, they may sit
for years, nay ages, before the stars shall show an-
other so favourable an aspect. Ah! hapless Hibernia!
bow cheerfully will thy ruddy sons cultivate thy green
fiedr this golden opportunity be duly seised."
