Castel, who was a merchant in Hamburgh, while it was in the hands of the French. This man says, that he was employed by the General commanding there to get English Bank-notes to the value of 50002. discounted, which turned out to be forged; and he was consequently obliged to fly from Hamburgh. He now says that Savary (Duke of Rovigo) and Desnouettes (head of Buonaparte's Police) were the fabricators of these notes; that they employed persons to spread them in England, one of whom was seized by the London Police, and hanged.

On the 16th inst. in the discussion of the Budget, in the Chamber of Deputies, the sum of 22,600,000 fr. was granted for the established Clergy of the Church of Rome; and that of 600,000 fr. for the Protestant Clergy, with the addition of 60,000fr. for the repair of Protestant Churches. "The Protestant religion," said the Minister of the Interior," is organised in fifty departments of France; it is celebrated in 200 churches or places of worship, the greater part of which are in want of repair. There are many places where, for want of churches, the service of religion is celebrated in the open air." Some disturbances have occurred at Brest, of a character similar to those which agitated the capital; but at Brest, as at Paris, the active zeal and energy of the troops quickly dispersed the rioters, and restored tranquillity. The towns of Caen and Rennes were also disturbed for some short time with the cries of Vive l'Empereur! A bas Louis! Some persons have been arrested. On the 18th Louis XVIII. was waited upon by a deputation from the Municipality of Paris, with an Address expressive of their loyalty and attachment, which concluded with these words: "Sire, clemency is in your heart, prudence in your counsels; but it is by justice and firmness that States are maintained."-To this his Majesty made the following reply: "I am sensibly affected with the sentiments which you have expressed to me in the name of my good City of Paris, on an occasion at once so afflicting and auspicious. Agitators, unworthy of being Frenchmen, have dared, in order to excite commotions, to abuse the name of that Charter which is dearer to me than to them.

SPAIN. - Don Raphael Riego has published a letter, in which he states, that when the King appointed him to the rank of Major General, he declined the preferment in the following manner: — -"I resolved to. relieve your Majesty, and other nations, from the chains which ignorance and egotism have forged; the result having been what I aimed at — -the establishment of civil liberty my ambition is satiated. The rank of Lieutenant-Colonel suffices me, and that which your Majesty would confer might create jealousy. My King is happy-my country is free; be this my sole reward." His Majesty would not accept the refusal; and Riego s'ates, that he repeatedly urged it to the Minister of the War Department, from whom he received the following dispatch, dated Madrid, the 12th instant: "I have laid before the King the fourth refusal that your very laudable moderation (which is so well allied to your merit) has induced you to make; and his Majesty orders me to inform you, that the country requiring your services in the post of Major-General of the national armies, to which his Royal goodness has raised you, he does not think proper to accept your refusal of it; which I communicate to you by his Majesty's command, for your information and satisfaction."

It is stated in the Madrid papers of the 13th of June, that about forty of the newly elected deputies assemble daily in Madrid, and have come to the resolution of proposing to the Cortes to proceed by criminal process against the sixtynine Deputies who, in 1814, demanded of the King that the Constitution should be abolished; but that should these sixtynine Deputies be condemned to death, they would then induce the Cortes to recommend to the King to commute the punishment. GERMANY. In the night of 21st March, a part of the mountain upon which the village of Strow in Bohemia was built, detached itself from the mass on twenty-three houses and two churches; sixteen were overthrown, and are in ruins. This accident appears to have been prepared by the wet seasons which preceded the present, and to have been principally caused in the last instance by the heavy snow of the winter. RUSSIA. An article, dated Hamburgh, the 13th inst. says, "His Majesty the Emperor of Russia has addressed a Declaration to all the European Courts, relative to the late political changes in Spain." Accounts from St. Petersburg inform us, that on the 24th of May last a fire broke out in the Imperial Palace on Zankajeselo (situate about 14 English miles from the capital), which consumed a great part of that splendid edifice, together with the academy founded by the present Emperor. His Majesty was present during this painful scene, and animated the exertions of the engineers and military in extinguishing the flames. ASIA. Advices, dated the 18th of February, have been received from Bombay. The expedition to the Persian Gulf, under the command of Sir William Keir, had completely succeeded in its object, the subjugation of the hordes of pirates on that coast. After placing a garrison in RasselKhyma, and expelling them from all the adjacent ports, the armament was on its return to Bombay. "Mudras, Feb. 5. The expedition fitted out from Batavia on a grand scale for the reduction of Palambaug, had arrived in the river, and made an attack on the batteries and defences of the Sultan on the 21st of October last; but had been beaten off with a loss of one thousand Europeans. The following is a list of the Dutch vessels employed on this occasion:-Wilhelmina, Arinus Marinus, Ajax, Betsey, Prince Blucher, Waterbrak, Hadrughot, corvettes; Irene, brig; Emma, schooner; two gun-boats, five prows a jonks with howitzers. The force which the Malays had to oppose to these consisted of three strong batteries on the banks of the river, and one on the island of Gombera ; one large floating battery; and one ship-battery; strong piles were driven across the main stream: several immense rafts of timber on fire were also floated down the smaller channel upon the shipping with great effect. Some disturbance having taken place on the island of Banca, the Dutch Resident who went out to quell them had been made prisoner by the insurgents, who afterwards cut off his head, and sent it in a basket as a present to the Sultan of Palambang. Resistance had also been made against the Dutch authority at Rhio; and when the Dauntless left Malacca, it was supposed that they would be obliged to quit Bintang altogether. A remarkable proof of the extravagancy of fanaticism, and of the misery which it will induce human nature to endure, was given last summer (1819) by a Bania in Gujerat, of the Vobra Caste. At their annual feast of Pujoosun, this man expressed his determination to abstain from food till he died. He had previously fasted from the 26th of July to the 25th of August; from which date he took a smalt quantity of food during four days, and then commenced his total abstinence. this resolution he persevered till the 3d of October, when he died; having thus fasted sixty-six days, deducting the four in August. A small portion of hot water daily was the only thing that passed his lips. At the end he was, as may be imagined, extremely emaciated; but his senses remained perfect to the last moment of his existence. He consequently became a Saint among the Janias. AMERICA, &c. In American papers have brought au account of the termination of the proceedings in Congress, which adjourned on the 15th ult. to the second Monday in November. A bill imposing a duty of 18 dollars the ton, on all French vessels entering the ports of the United States, was hurried through both Houses during the last two days of the sitting of Congress. This act is to be in full operation on the Ist of next month; and is explained to bave been enacted in consequence of the refusal of the French Government, after a long negociation, to enter into commercial arrangements, on reciprocal terms, with the Government of the United States. Provision is made for its immediate repeal as soon as France shall adopt different principles. Mr. Clay, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, though his term of service is not completed, has retired from public life. It appears from the American papers that all foreign vessels of war are prohi bited from entering the ports of the United States, except Portland, Boston, New London, New York, Philadelphia, Norfolk, Smithville Smithville in North Carolina, Charleston, and Mobile, unless from stress of weather, or when pursued by an enemy. By Quebec papers we learn, that a fire broke out at Montreal, on the 4th of May, which destroyed the theatre and twentytwo houses. The New York theatre was burnt to the ground on the 25th of May. TORTOLA, May 8.-We have, since our late unfortunate gale, had a great drought; our crops are already spoiled for this and the ensuing year. Last year this island made from 2500 to 3000 hogsheads of sugar; this year it will not make 250 hogsheads. The earth is completely parched; and nothing that is put in it survives. NEW SOUTH WALES. A French vessel, called L'Uranie, Cap. tain Freycinet, on a voyage of discovery, touched at Sydney early in December, and during its stay a mutual interchange of civilities took place between the officers and principal inhabitants. Some residents at Sydney having expressed their intention to quit the Colony in the Uranie, Captain Freycinet declined taking them, without the sanction of the Governor. A Russian frigate, also on a voyage of discovery, arrived at Sydney soon after the Uranie. At one of the balls given by the officers of the Uranie, some young female natives from Paramatta, educated at the schools established at Sydney, partook of the habits of civilized life, and were admired for the grace and ease of their movements. The reputation of these seminaries, and a desire which is gradually spreading among the rude people of the Southern Ocean to share the benefits of instruction, had attracted to Sydney a party of young persons from the Bay of Islands, among whom was the son of Shungee, their principal Chief, but the plan of the Schools limiting them to the natives of New South Wales, they could not be received, the managers fearing, in that case, to be overwhelmed with claimants for instruction. The annual assemblage of the native tribes took place at Paramatta on the 28th of December, but was less numerously attended than usual, the extreme heat of the weather preventing them from proceeding from the interior. About 250 persons of both sexes were present, and were regaled by the Governor with provisions and liquor. The examination of the native children of the institution then took place, and some very creditable specimens of their progress in writing and drawing were produced. The recognition of the chil dren by their parents and friends was described as extremely affecting. The facilities of internal communication had been increased, by putting the roads from Sydney to Paramatta and Nassau, before impassable in wet seasons, under complete repair. The improved cultivation of the hemp in New Zealand has before been mentioned; some trials were made in January, at Sydney, of its relative strength, when made into cordage, compared with that manufactured in England from the produce of the Baltic, and determined materially in favour of the hemp of New Zealand, which possessed a degree of strength superior by one fourth.-Mr. G. Johnston, son of the Lieutenant-Governor of the Colony, died on the 19th of February, in consequence of a fall from his horse. The colony, in general, was in a flourishing state; European goods were in demand. The Admiral Cockburn, which brought these advices, brings home an entire cargo of the produce of the Colony. The Regalia, freighted in a similar manner, was to sail in about a month. The Gazette of the 8th of January contains an advertisement from the noted Dr. O'Halloran, who has opened a school at Sydney. DOMESTIC OCCURRENCES. INTELLIGENCE FROM VARIOUS PARTS OF THE COUNTRY. Sir W. J. Hope, one of the Lords of the Admiralty, accompanied by Sir John Gore, the Port Admiral of Sheerness, is on a survey of the coasts of Kent and Sussex, in order to ascertain the expediency of continuing or relinquishing the establishment for the suppression of smuggling, denominated the coast blockade; the expense being found greatly to exceed the advantage derived from it, while the plan of preventive stations, be. sides being more efficacious in its object, more than pays the whole cost of its establishment. A tradesman of Bristol was summoned lately before the Mayor of that city, and fined for suffering a bale of goods to remain on the pavement to the obstruction of the passengers; this he paid, and immediately after walked to the warehouse of the Mayor, where he saw some soap boxes standing on the pavement, and laid an information at the Council House; and the consequence was, that the Mayor was also fined by his brother Magistrates. Mr. Joseph Hughes, of Hodnet, near the seat of Lord Hill, at Hawk-tone, Shropshire, has at this time an extraordi nary cow, which is fed on grass culy, that gives every day 24 quarts of milk, which as regularly produces 21 lbs. of butter every week!
