A file of American papers, comprehending the eight last days of January, has reached us, and others, to the 8th ult., are expected daily. The interest of the foYmer is con- fined to a loing series of debates in Congress-1st, on a re- solution to provide suffi6ient funds for the maintenance of a political mission to the States of Greece; 2d, on an amendwent to that resolution, pledging the Americani Lce gislature no further thaii to d declarationi bf its sypatlly with the Greek patriots in their struggle. The inference to be drawn fronm a pretty attentive;perusal of these volumi- nous discussions, is, in our judgment, not unfa,vourable to the knowvledge, acuteness, or general ability of the dispu. tants. Those who were willing to confer upon the Greeks the proposed indications of national countenance and friend- ship, enfoned.-with much velwrBience the fit appeals to libety and humanity by Which public -47ntiment raight be excited; wyhile .some -of their opponents restel on tf^arwelleadsiceLof"Ws-IXGTO0r ; viz.-thaz " the Re- .fjiibflcdWji#?vgiire n : of 0o1erce vith all K" *cworla, butforna.szfe*,o}iticsl eninexions es - " sib1p b;-p' 1i wets.7,. ..; .. - * Tbiis texts wltu^ h on-he -w1wSe iss wise one, would Uln- ?qu.esfi6ab.ly e jus t ,oSy premature -entanglesneiit witLh Eu1ropeanrposics ; but-i'far less digni. *ficd ground was t1ke-t Pl 1 thrj 4 p:aI who seemed-to regard the danger arising -froat eij1reats of the Holy Alliancea sgupvt -eVty.':fif Amerteam as i uite,immi. nent enough, without ,enhancincg2ir W5a :fte6dle.A?ntrusioj of the feelings 'or publ-he f,t ies 1it States into contests in the heart. of the-lb11Var1t- earried or, by slaves against their: tyra,n.$,.

As Colonel Wyndham is a man of great lirm- ness of character, he will soon bring the pert d&ndies to their senses.

,cruraing t a letter trom. tome of the 8th instant, the Mar quLK of Hastings'vas upon the peint of his departurc for Mfalta. Extract of a private letter from Madrid, dated the 12th inst. The Marquis de Campo Sagrado has set out fbr Barcelona, by way of Vatencia. We are assured that the Governuienthas just address- ed to the Baron Eroles a severe repriiband, for the following rea- sons:-1st, That he has not yet disbanded the armv, notwithltand in repeated orders of the Government,-2d, That le has not caused allthe Civl Authorities to enter into Barcelona.-3d, That he did not set out for Mladrid as soon as he received orders to that effect. The two formner reasons appear plausible; as to the third, it is well knowu that the Baron prepared to depart immediately: it is true, however, that the packing up his effects lasted a fortnight. STOCK-E-MCHANTGE, Mlarch 23, five o'clock. The market has been verv active to-day but a rumour of the re. duction of the interest of the five per cents. occasioned a rapid fall in the price of stocks, and a report of a new loan upon advantageous terns afterwards gave a favourable impulse to the market, and the priceof stocks in some degree recovered. The following is from the Agsbirg Gazette :-" On the 4th inst. the French journal the Floile inserted an article upon the death of Prince Eugene, in whieh the basest calumnnies and grossest injuriesare heaped on the Prince.

LAW REPORT. MIr. HORNE said that the question in this case was, whether the power of advising the Company in the appointment of a school- master for the Tunbridge Free Grammar School, established by grant in the reign of Edward the Vlth, wns vested in AD Souls, or Lincoln College, Oxfrd. By the terms of the grant, the right was vested in the colege " Omnium seanctorum inniverifarte Oxonic." The master, to whom it had been referred to approve of a scheme for the establishment, reported that All Souls College was described as " Ornniu,n animarem ;" and Lincoln Colege zs "Beater Marie, omn'urn sanctoriim de Linzcolnict ;" neither, therefore, exactly answered to the description contained in the grant; the pre- sent petition was, consequently, filed. praying of the Court to de- clare that All Souls was the College intended. In support of the petition, Mr. Horne cited the opinion of Sir Wlrilliam Blackstone, in favour of All Souls; and read extracts from two old topogra- graphical works published in the 16th and 17th centuries, in which the right of that college to exercise the privilege in question was treated as a matter then well known and undisputed. It was proved, moreover, that the founder of the school was skin to the founder of All Souls: and that the brother of the forimer was at the time of the foundation of the school a member of All Souls, and his name marked in the registry admissi zi b *ok with an asterisk, signifying that he was related to the foundtr of the college. The learned gen- tleman, on these grounds, contended that the right in question was in All Souls. ilIr. PEMBERToT and Mr. GREOG appeared for All Souls and Lincoln colleges respectively. The VICE-CH[AN-CELLOR asked what the Attomey-General said to this petition ? ARr. HAT, for the Attorney-General, was ready to submit to whatever orJer his Honour was pleased to make, only obsenring, that as neither of these colleges had exercised this righi for the last two centuries, there did notseemtobeany need oftheir doingt%onow. The VICE-UHAN CELLOR observed, that the question then re- mained as to the repudiation of this right by the two colleges. 2Mr. IARmT said they' bad nut repudiated the right-they had merely not exercised it. HCedid not know of any objection to its being vested in All Souls. The VICE-CIIANTCELLOR would then decide, since it seemed to bc consen,ted to on all sides, that the right was inteutled by the grant to be vested in the College of All Souls; the costs, charges, and ex- penses of all parties to be paid out of the fund.

We understand that despatebes were yesterday received at the Admiralty from Vice-Admiral Sir HARRY NEALE, dated the 26th of February, off Algiers, where Sir iHfAY was maintaining a strict blockade of that port, in which it was supposed the whole Algerine force was collected. Although it is evident from the continuation of hostili- ties, that the DEY had not made the full concessions required of him, it is understood, that on the appearance of the British Admiral, hf.lJdirected some European captives, lately made, to be placed on the footing of prisoners of war, although they had up to that time been treated as slaves.
