platiou to call Parliament tog Their, for any
purpose whatever, until after Christmas !;
neither is there the most distant prospect
of dissolution. Nor is there an idea of
either touching the Sinking Fund, or of
taxing the Funds. We can also state from
authority, that the Revenue is daily impro-
wing, and that there are fewer Evchequer
Bills now in circulation, than there have
been for many years.

US in IN article purportng to come from
Bast' that the BirbariaHs have no idea
If subm ssion. The Dey of Algitrs has
disposed of every t'.ng for retreat, and
