By the ship Sally, Capt. Watsok, arri ved here yesterday in the short passage ot iS da\s from Liverpool, we have received London Papers tu the 27th, and Liverpool Papers to the 29tli January, both inclusive —nearly a month later than before received. Some extracts from them will be found in this morning’s Courier ; the most ma|er>»l of which relate to the 8 t»»c of the markets; there being not 1 " 1 '!? politically impor an . The London Papers contain the .Speech of the President of the United States at the opening of Congress, with some flattering re remarks upon its amicable temper, and the , flourishing state of this country. J '1 here is much speculation in the English prints, as to the views of the United states in taking possession of Amelia-Island.

President's Message We received this j morning a copy of the Messsge of the Presi- i dent of the United States upon opening the Congress. It is, of course, a most impor tant, and we are happy to add, a most satisfactory document, confirming, in every respect, the statement we have more than once published, of amicable disposition of the American Government. An American Paper says, and we coincide entirely with it, that it is the ablest and most satisfac tory Speech we have read for many year.” [ Courier . JANUARY 15. The Gazette of the Two Sicilies contains the Royal Decree, bestowing upon the Prince de Talleyrand the dignity of a Neapolitan 1 Duke, by the title of Duke de Dino. The 1 honor is to have a collateral descent. The report of M. Las Casas being con fined in a Bohemian fortress in unfounded. It is said he remains at Francfurt, under the surveillance of the Police. JANUARY 20. The ship Grace Davie, (with Officers, passengers, bound to South America,) w hich was seized at Cowes has been liberated, aid arrived at the Motherbank, preparatory to proceeding to St Thomas’, the first fair wind. Major Lockyer, and the other Officer* who had engaged their passage in the above sh p, and were subsequently con cerned in a duel, at Cowes, with Lieutenant Sutton Cochrane, it is ascertained sail ed for South America in a brig, a few days after the fatal event took place. We have received this morning the Paris Papers of Saturday last. The project of the law for recruiting the French army was still under discussion iu the Chamber of De puties. There was not much novelty of ar gument displayed on either side. Those who objected to the law, urged the same grounds of objections as preceding speakers, that it nearly resembled the old system of conscription: while they who supported it, maintained, that as compulsory service was only to be enforced, where voluntary enrol ment proved insufficient, the spirit of the Charter was not violated. If, indeed, the principle be admitted, that France requires an army, to place her upon a proper footing of equality w itli the uther Continental States, it sreuis unreasonable to condemn the only ineans by which that principle can be prac tically adopted. Voluntary service must al ways be precarious and limited. Men who have any regular occupation, are not likely to abandon it. for a military life, especially in time of peaee. That martial ardor which during war, may stimulate individuals, can form no excitement when war is at an end. We should not be sorry, however, if the amendment, for taking an annual vote upon the army should be adopted. Pnch a check ma . tend to secure a state of peace ; and we are glad, therefore, t.. find it so strenuously insisted upon by the Chamber. Jan. 19.—Yesterday, towards evening" he Duke of Wellington. Lord Hill, Colonel Freemantle of the Guilds,and some other Gentlemen, landed out of the Paul, Captain Staines from Calais,at the Albion Hotel, where they had dinner, and proceed ed about 10 o’elock ill his Lordship’s car riage to town. By a letter from a Gentleman sent on pur- ' pose to ascertain the slate of tke Indian, lost of Roscoff we are informed, that the bndiej i of 143 of the unfortunate sufferers have been i found and buried ; the crew and passengers j amounted to 193, and not to 240, as w as re j ported. The only survivors from this me . ! lancholy shipwreck are two pigs, that Came ' on shore in one of the boats w it hunt damage. The vessel is scarcely to be seen at low wat er. She had been sold for 2000 litres. January 26. There have been great fluctuations in the Funds—Consol, which early on Saturday were 80 1-2, have to-day been so low as 78 3-8 ; since then they have advanced, and at j one o’elock were lor mouey 78 7-8, and for account 79. It is reported that the Right Hon. F. Ro binson is to be the new treasurer nf the Na vy and President of the Board of Trade— and that the Right Hon. T. Wallace is to bo j Vice-President of (he Board of Trade, j We have received two Piandeis mails, one last night, and the other this inoruiug. An | article from Berlin mentions a singularly ri i gorous punishment inflicted upon a Prussian i Oflieer and his second, for fighting a duel. ! The former has been sentenced to nine years i imprisonment, and the latter to four, j The Ghent Journal contains auother epi | odium upon the commercial prosperity of England. It does not appear that the patri ' otic societies, with all their foolish rhudo montade about swearing to wear and use no | articles butofhume manufacture, havesue ; cceded in excluding our commodities. They j now call aloud for legislative interference; i hut we suspect the legislature will he too wise, in acting for the uation, to consult on ly the interests, or rather the prejudices, of a separate body. The same Journals contradict the account of the deaths of Messrs. Lalapie and Pouti coulant, in a very satisfactory manner. It says, “ these gentlemen have not been hung in the Brazils,” because they have never been there. It is impossible to gainsay this j conclusion. An article from Hanover, mentions that j the nuptials ol the Duke of Cambridge with a Princess of Hvsso Cassel, are expected to take place about the middle of March, aftor which, lifs Royal Highness, accompanied by his illustrious Consort, will visit England. His Royal Highness, it is added, has receiv ed official congratulations upon his proposed j alliance, und the Ladies of Honor who are j to be about the person of the Princess are I already appointed. January 27. ; Opening; nf the Session—Prince Regent's Speech. I'lte Session was opened this day i by Commission. As soon as the Lords Com missioners had taken their seats in the House of Peers, the attendance of the House of Commons was commanded; and the Speak er of the House of Commons, attended by a large number of members, having obeyed the summons, a Speech, of which the following is & correct copy, was read . I Speech of the Lords Coramissioilers, ! a. * \ TO BOTH HOUSES OE PAHLIAMENT, ON TUES day, January 27, 1818. My Lords and Gentlemen, WE are commanded by his Royal Highness the Prince Regent to inform you, that it is with great concern that he is obliged to announce to you the continuance of bis i Majesty’s lamented indisposition. The Prince Regent is persuaded that you will deeply participate in the affliction with which his Royal Highness has been visited, by the calamitous and untimely death of his beloved and only child the Priucess Charlotte. Under, this awfnl dis pensation of Providence it has been a sooth ing consolation to the Prince Regent’s heart, , to receive from all descriptions of his Ma jesty’s subjects, the most cordial assurances . both nf their just sense of the loss which they have sustained, and of their sympathy with his parental sorrow ; and amidst his i own sufferings, his Royal Highness has not ; been unmindful of the effect which the sad 1 event most have on the interests and future , j prospects of the kingdom. 1 We are commanded to acquaint you that the Priuee continues to receive from forei-a powers the strongest assurances of their friendly disposition towards this country, and of their desire to maintain the general tranquility. ■ His Royal Highness has the satisfaction of being able to assure you, that the confi de tree. which he has invariably felt in the stability of the great sources of our nation al prosperity, has not been disappointed. I The improvement which has taken place in the course of the last year, in almost j every branch of our domestic industry, and the present state of public credit, affording abundant proof that the difficulties under i which the country was laboring wpre chief j ly to be ascribed to temporary causes. I So imporinnt a change could not fail to , withdraw from the disaffected the principal meant of w hich they had availed themseL es jf t the purpose of fomenting a spirit of discontent, which unhappily led to acts of I insurrection and treason : and h's Royal ! Highness entertains the most confident ex- I peetation, that the state us peace aad Iran-
