Thirteen days later from England
Charleston, April 15.
By the arrival at New-York of the Lon
dnn packet ship Crisis, anil the packet ship
Cortes, from Liverpool, regular files of Lon
don papers and Lloyd’s Lists have been re
ceived to the sth March. The Crisis sailed
f rom London on the Bth March, and the
Cortes,from Liverpool, on the 25th of Feb.
We have taken from the New-York papers
the following extracts:
Cotton still continues to advance in price.
—A letter from Liverpool mentions that one
prime lot of Georgia Uplands, had been sold
for sixteen pence.
The following extract of a letter trom
Liverpool to a house in London, is copied
from the British Traveller, of March 5.

with an inclination in some of the speculators
to sell under prime cost —yesterday’s prices I

Bv an extract given below from the Lon
don Courier, it will be seen that the Chan
cellor of the. Exchequer, had brought forward
his budget in the House of Commons, and
that from his statements the financial affairs
of Great Britain continued to improve. A
number of taxes were proposed tifbe tepeal
eil; but we regret to obi* rve that pi o' irioiis
were rapidly rising in price, which rendered
it necessary to increase the wages of the
Labourer and the Mechanic. Wlprt the
country will gain on the one hand, it must
pay on the other.
The Catholic question continued to occupy
public attention. A meeting of Catholic de
legates had been held in London, and peti
tions to Parliament agreed to, praying (or a
removal of the disqualifications which alfect
«d the vi hole of that body. The petition to
the House of Commons was presented by Sir
Francis Burdett, who concluded a long and
eloquent speech bv moving “ that the House
should resolve itself into a committee to con
sider the existing laws which affects his Ma
jesty’s Roman Catholic subjects, with a
view to iheir repeal.” A long debate fol
lowed on tliis motion, in which Mr Canning
.. i( J Vie. llemiahaiu bore a conspicuous part;
when, at 3 o’clock in the morning, the
House divided and the votes were found to
be—for the motion 248—against it 234
majority for the juplJoiOjL I|ie announce
ment or the numbers was received with
cheers ; and on the reporters re-entering the
gallery, they found (he House in a commit
tee, uiid Mr. Peel declaring that the opposers
of the bill which the Honorable member foi
West-minister iireuded to introduce, would
suffer it to be read a first time, pro forma,
and would make their stand against it oh the
second reading. After several resolutions
had been proposed and agreed to, the bouse
resumed ; the report of the committee was
brought up and agreed to, and leave was
given to bring in a bill founded on the lesolu
tions of tiie committee. Mr. Peel asked
when it was the intention ol the Honorable
Baronet to move the second reading of the
bill. Sir F. Burdelt was understood to i
answer, not till after Easter.
Tire official intelligence of the liberation
of Peru was received in London, on the 2*l

The King of England was sick at imf- i
Kir. Mr. Canning had an increased attack
of the gout, brought on, it was supposed by
the exertion which he made in the House of
Commons on the Catholic question. Ihe
Marquis of Wellesley, had been indisposed
for sometime, in consequence of which a
levee and drawing room announced to be
held at the castle of Dublin, lied been post
poned. The Duke of Wellington was also
sick with an abscess in his ear.
The British government is stated to have
made arrangements for immediately send

United States had declared war against
Spain, which had the eft’ect lor a moment ol
slightly lowering the funds.
Intelligence from Calcutta to the 24th
September, from Madras* to the 12lh Octo

respecting the disturbances in Ava. ihey
also slate that the Burmese had determined
on making another effort to drive out the
British; but from the discontent prevailing
among them, it was expected the contest
would not lie of long duration.
Cobbel had caused prosecutions to be com

Commerce, of the 28th of February, states,
on the authority of accounts from Augsberg
and Nuremberg, that the insurrection of
Colocotroni had been completely suppressed
and the Greeks are vigorously following up
the blockade of Patras.
It will be seen bv an article in a subse
quent column, that the attempt made by the
Servians to throw off the Turkish yoke has
been partially checked. Accounts from
Alexandria via Zante, mention that prepara
tions for the next campaign are making,
which arc superintended by General Boyer,
and other French officers, who had arrived
in Egypt in December. The avowed object
of these preparations was the invasion of the
Morea; but the Pacha was strongly suspect

He is to remain at Paris till May, and is
then going to Milan, where it is supposed
there will be an interview between the Em

London, March 3.
t A letter from Zante, of the 24th January
• states, that the attempt of the Servians to
f throw off the Turkish yoke, had been put
i down for the moment by the energy of Prince
Milosh, the Governor, who, being more than
» suspected of an inclination tojoin the Greek
i cause, had felt that he had no other way ot
■ preserving his life, than by exerting him
‘ self strenuously in suppressing a rising
1 which was too premature lor his own views.
• A sanguinary contest is said to have taken
place between Ids troops and the rebbels,
i the leader of whom was killed, and his bro
ther made prisoner. On the other hand
i however, it, is said, that the brave inhabit
, ants of the Montencgros, in Albania, have
; offered to co-operate with the Greeks, and
have raised a large body for that purpose ;
1 and that the Bulgarians of Mount Hetnus
i have sent deputies to Napoli de Romania,
to offer their assistance.
ConstantinopA, Jan. 25.
'l’he hope that had been entertained of tfce
speedy execution of an enterpiixe against
the Greeks by Ibrahim Pacha, and which
was kept up by divers reports, is rapidly dy
ing away. Every thing indicates, that be
fore the spring nothing serious will be un
dertaken against the insurgents. The ar
maments are meantime going on without
interruption ; extreme measures have been
resorted to, in order to meet the urgent ex
penses, and anew paper currency has been
.issued. The Sultan himself has assigned
two millions of piastres for the pur pose, and
issued firmans to ullMhe Pachas, to exhort
' them to fidelity and zeal in the public ser
vice. It seems that the army intended to
1 act against the insurgents, will be laised to
■ the number of 50,000. t

1 Ibrahim Pacha is gone with the greater
part of his fleet to fetch from the Rhodes
1 the troops he left there.
Two Greek Pachas have arrived here,
deputed by Coloctroni to invite Ibrahim to
the Morea. '1 he chiefs who have revolted
against the government, impatiently expec
ted the Turks.
We have accounts from Napoli de Ro
mania to 3d Jan ; and I have been talking
with a Frank who has just arrived from that;
place. The greatest wretchedness prevails!
there , of the great number of cannon, notj
above 20 or 30 are fit for service. Thej
Turks have purposely spoiled the others
before the capitulation. There is not mo*!
ney to purchase fond, ho that sickness is
very prevalent. Hardly sor tiOOU persons
remain in it, and not above 250 ot 300 sol
diers to delefnd them. An Austrian ship
has conveyed many families to Zea, and
the remainder would gladly leave a place
where thev do not think themselves sale.
The few Fhilhellenes, who arrived full of
enthusiasm, have immediately gone away
full of disgust. The houses are in a pitia
ble slate ; even in that occupied by Condu
notte the day light came through the roof,
and the windows are every where destitute
of glass. There were at Napoli only 25
Turkish prisoners, all of whom have died
successively of cold and hunger. There
are from time to time cases of plague at
Canea.
Marseilles, Feb. 10.—Mercantile letters
have been received from Aleppo, containing
some, information respecting the present re
lations between Persia and the Porte, which
do not agree with the reports that have
been for some time in circulation, ’’’bese
reports affirmed that hostilities hail ately
taken place between the Turks and the Pe,
si,ms, and that a new war was at hand. 01
this they know nothing at Aleppo, where
they must have better information respec
ting the state of things. Our letters state,
on the contrary, that the negociations res
pecting the disputed points on the frontiers,
which by the last treaty, were to be termin
ated as soon as possible by an amicable
convention, had taken a favorable turn since
the arrival of the Turkish Ambassador at
Teheran, and that it was expected that the
intended demarkation of the frontier line
would soon be completed, by which future
differences will be prevented. The Porte
had already urged the Pacha of Belgrade to
pay in a short time the indemnification he
had promised. This last is however a pri
vate atVa’r, wholly unconnected with the
political relations between the two powers,
and for the existence of which it was falsely
1 inferred, that there were great differences
1 between them. But the strongest proof
t how little the Porte apprehends from that
i quarter, is the fact, that Turkish trooj s are
ordered from the remotest parts of Asiatic
i Turkey,even from the pechalic of Bagdad,
i to march to Asia Minor, to await the far
ther orders of the Porte. According to all
- appearance, these troops are destined for
1 the next campaign against the Greeks;
- and they would hardly have been employed
in this manner, if there were any thing to
-be feared from Persia. The European uu
t riiime commerce wilt the coast of Syria
had been for some time past greatly endan
gered by the numerous armed Greek ves

Madras to the 12th of October, and from

iare now, almost, looked for as a matter of, i
course.—Long may this continue ! \
We have seldom, however, perused &
financial statement with more unmixed
satisfaction, than we derived from that
made by Mr. Robinson last night, in the
House of Commons.—Last year the Right
Hon. Gentleman anticipated that there
would be a surplus at the commencent of
the present one, to the amount of 1,050,000
pounds The re-payments on account of the
silk duties, amounting to 460,000 pounds,
were expected to reduce the surplus to that
extent; but, notwithstanding the conces
sions made to the public in 1824, the actual
surplus greatly exceeds that on which the
Right Hon. Gentleman calculated, and
amounts to no less than 1,437,744 pounds.
We pass over the clieering view which the
Chancellor of the Exceequer took of the in
proved state of the country, as demonstrated
by the increasing consumption of, those
articles, which mainly consribute To the ,
comfort of the middling and lower classes,
and shall advert to the disposition he pur
poses to make of the above me ntioned sur
plus. Belore doing this, we may
mention, en passant, that the drawback of
3s, per cw»4.-.aU«twud- over and p |vivp t]ie
duty paid, on the exportation of sugarTTs tc
cease from inly next year. This, perhaps,
will not be considered favorable to the West-
Lnuia interest, but they will be more than
consoled by what follows, in which it will
be seen that it has been the object of Govern
ment, to relieve, as equally as possible, all
classes of the community.
The first,duty proposed to be repealed is
that on the importation of foreign iron,
which is to be reduced from 31. per ton to H,
10s.—Nothing could he better timed than
this measure. It is not expected to hurt
the iron trade here ; bqt if it should abate in
some measure the enormous advance which
has lately taken place, we do not think it
will be a matter of universal regret. The
d uty on hemp, now Id. per pound, is to be
reduced fifty per cent. A reduction to the
same amount is proposed on West-Im|ia
Coffee. Most important relief will thus be
afforded to that interest—which has long
been considerably deprssed. The duties on
Wine are to be materially lowered. On
French Wines the duty is at pr esent 11*,.
s£d. per gallon- It is to be reduced to 6s.—
The duties on Portuguese, Spanish and
Rhenish Wines fall from 7s. 7d. to 4§,
Various arrangements were announced for
the better regulations nl the trade in Spirits
on which an important reduction of duty will
take place.—lnstead oi 16s. 6d. now paid
per gallon, ss. will hereafter be charged on
that distilled from Malt, and 6s on that
produced from raw grain. On Colonial
Rum, a duty of Bs, per gallon will be sub
stituted for one of !os. 6d. now paid The
duty on Cyder, now 30s. per hogshead, is
to be brought down to 10s. Besides these,
relief is to be afforded to the poorer classes
by lowering in their favour, the assessed
taxes.—The duty is to be taken off four
wheeled carriages, drawn by ponies; oc
