sire TO avoid every expenditure beyond what the
necessary demands of the public service may re-
qure
His Majesty has the satisfaction ofinforming you,
that the produce of the Revenue, in the last year.
has fully ustiedthe expectations entertained at the
commencement OF II.
NY Lords and Gentlemen:
His Majesty deeply laments the injurious eff
fecs which the late pecuniary crisis must have en-
tailed upon many branches OF the Commerce and
Manufactures OF the United Kingdom.
But his Majesty confidently believes that the
temporary check which Commerce and Manufac-
lures may at this moment experience, will, under
the blessing OF Divine Providence, neither impair
the great sources of our wealth, impede the
growth of national prosperity.

81. Petersburgh, Jan. IL" The private SOL
ders were seduccd and misled at the occurrences
OF Dec. 26. The only guilty persons are the off,
GERS, who urged them 10 resistance and open revolt.
These have been discovered and arrested, and the
! most guilty are imprisoned in fortress. They are
| to be tried by Special Commission. II is really
to be regretted that in the list found names oil
persons who belonged to the most illus'rous fami-
lies of the State, and whose ancestors distinguished
themselves in the annals Of the country by patriotic
, actions Among these individuals also we per-
| ce,ve some men o! the highest talent and whom

/ Polcad. (U-drsa,c) Jan. "a. Our city en-
joys an outward tranquility but the silence of the
authorities, and letters from Russia, make well
informed people uneasy. II is said that the son
OF Prince I4apuchin, President of the Coun :
ell OF State, is one of the persons arrested at Pc
tersburg, and that Prince Oboenski has avowed
himself the author of the death of the brave
| Miloraiowitch No Pole is implicated, in the
! least, In this plot, where so many great Russian
names figure. The army of the south does not

that several corps have refused 10 take the oath to
/ the new Emperor. There is a report that a CO.
lionel, who was haranguing his regiment to induce
| them TO take he oath, killed with a sword,
| by major Of the same regiment, a member I'M
doubleday OF the grand conspiracy. This major
! has thrown himsefin the city of Kew, where he
IS blocsaded. This news is perhaps the aame
as that of the rebellion of Moura vief. Tho chief
wished perhaps to take possession of Kew which
has some ancient Notifications; but it is known
already that his projects did not succeed 1-TNote

! We do not yet know how to explain the en-
barrassrnent OF the Pacha OF the Egyptians Some
days since, il was said that Coocotvoni had made
two fruitless attacks upon Trpoiiza, ard that this
! place had since been closely blockaded. The par
tisans OF the Turks in Zan;e, who could not DENY
these facts, consoled themselves, by saying, that
the Egyptian garrison of Tripoliiza, which was
$500 men strong, well disciplined and provi-
stoned. and had Austrian and French artille-
rists, who were enrolled by General Bower and
Liyzon, might hold out sl winter & that in the
spring II would be rel ieved by fresh troops from
/ Egypt. They were living in this hope, when let
| tiers from the continent brought us the information
of the taking of Tripoli'za, which happened on
the night of the 27th-2Sth of December. Colo
cotroni' reinforced Ivy four companies of 1acti-
| tiGas, taken from Col. Fabvier's regiment, hay
! ing blown up one OF the gates ofTripolitza, threw

The combat obstinate: The Egyptians and
. the negroes from Darfour, thrown into the castle
situated on height. were burnt alive there by Or
| der OF ColocotroDi, in retaliation for the churches
! they have burnt, the monks and pre-ts they have
! rnar'yred; and the women and children they have
dragged into slavery. Thrty-six foreign officers,
who escaped the flames, have been spared for a
| time, 10 be marched and shown from village 10 viii
laae, as Infamous apostates, who, forgetting their
title OF Christians, have enlisted in the service of
the Turks, and shared in all their crimes We
| presume that those among these miserable beings
| who survive this species OF expation will be
! thrown into the first ship which will take the
charge OF Transporting them back to Christendom.

three times endeavored TO advance from Pa,ras
I"'o 'hee uueIen' parts OF tfe feloponnests, was
beaten on all sides, and obliged to returned into
that city. The loss he has suffered in different en-
sagements with the Greeks was considerable, and
especially near the village of Acraia, where we are
assured that ne lost two thousand men. Seeing the
mpossibiiiiy OF succeeding in his projects he des-
patched TO Calona body OF troops in order TO take
