Cir Wm. A'Court the British ambassador.
Letters from Frankfort Of l4th April, state
that great hustle and perplexity prevailed on
;,s exchange; the Austrian "Aletalhques" had
ELLEN one per cent and the other public funds

G,nds was attributed TO various causes. One
MINOR was that Basanicf's army had crossed
the pru,h. while others attributed the decline TO

PAYERS from ST. Petersburg TO the 3lst March,
contain nothing Of public interest. The Rus
sian army is looked on with alarm by the Gar.
An ,rticie in the Journal de ST. Petersburg, OF

TOO idle, and in state OF peace gives his ear too
readily to the insinuations OF Ill disposed ana
innoyatipp reformers. lsadds, that the Govern
ment itself seems now inclined to attend 10 the
subject, and plan is SAID TO be IN cohlernpia-.

London, .RpriI 22-The continental journal
;s,, who have the talent Of making much out
Of norhinp, draw important conclusions from
the fac, tha, the Duke Of Wellington is about
IN leave Sc Petersburgh. We hardly know
how this fearful fact could have been ave"ted,
excepr by his staying there, which was never
the intention Of his Grace, or OF those who sent
him. The Duke of Wellington was sent there
on a special mission, avowedly TO compliment
the Enperor on his accession; and IT on the
same occasion any propositions were TO be
made, there is nothing surprising IL they have
been already considered and settled.
MANY circumstances make il highly lmpro-
bable that Russia will engage in hosullties with
Turkey, except under some explanation as 10
the causes, and such guarantees as 10 the flnai
purpose of il, a. will satisfy the other powers
of Europe. The general tendency OF the pre-
sent measures Of the Russian government Is
to lessen the power Of the military force. he
empire is now, and it generally has been, very
feeble in its financial resources. and lncapaoif
of extensive wars Of offence; the Emperor, oe
sides inher,ing the policy OF Alexander is
closely united with the Prussian Monarch -
There does no, appear the least probability 'hat
under such circumstances he woult provoke all
the powers of Europe, who, on the point OF IL
hitting Russia within its present bounds, nave
the most perfect union Of feeling and interests
We sincerely hope, that with the general con
sent of all, some in,erposition IN favor OF the
perisning Greeks will take place; beyond that,
war is as improbable, as it would be pernlclous
Globe.
