It is vexatious, said Mr. Woollet, a he arose from breakfast, that I cannot stay here, as I have no ready money to procure a lodging. No answer was made Can't I have a room on your second floor Mr. Saveall ? Really, sir, they are all occupied. I do not know what to do ; I must beg you to lend me half a guinea till next week. I cannot upon my word, sir. Mr. Woollet summoned up a look of expressive contempt, and fixed his eye on his false friend, cried he who can refuse half a guinea to my necessities, shall never share in my property. Know, selfish man, I have gained my case, and am at this moment master of two thousand pounds per annum. Then turning from them hastily left the house. I stood for a moment to view their confusion; they spoke not a. word, but giving each other the keenest looks of reproach, separated in sullen silence. Foreign Articles.
"FROM NILE'S WEEKLY REGISTER" Great Britain The "Scotch Greys" had been called out to suppress certain disorderly proceedings that occured in Monmouthshire in the attacks made upon persons who were thought to work in the mines at prices which were considered too low; and such is the state of agriculturalists in this country that many farmers have clandestinely deserted their farms. ms. The motion made by Mr. Canning for the admission of Catholic peers into the house of lords, has prevailed in the house of commons by a majority of fie votes, the extraordinary number of 498 members being present, it is a stub to a whale" it being perfectly understood that the other house will reject the measure. It appears from a paper lately laid before parliament, that the amount of the taxes repealed since the termination of the war, after, deducting the amount of those imposed, is little short of seventeen millions per annum" Yet the taxes are so heavy that the farmers cannot live without a home monopoly of the supply of bread stuffs and meats!! A very fine Turkish frigate of 40 guns, has lately been fitted out at 'his majesty's dock at Detpford.' Is this "war n disguise?" IRELAND If the accounts received from this country arc not much exaggerated, we have rarely heard of so great a famine as appears to prevail. Deaths for want of food are frequently reported in the newspapers, and three fourths of the population of certain counties are issued to be in actual suffering for the meanest articles of subsistence! In consequence, some warm-hearted person has proposed in one of our city papers, to raise funds to put chase provisions in the United States, to relieve the wants of the people of Ireland. he motive must be esteemed hut the writer should recollect that foreign wheat is cheaper in England than it is in the United States that it has been brought from Liverpool to New York and there sold at a profit. All that w could do (and surely I myself would do double my own part, if I thought it would result in any practical good) would be as a drop in the bucket but would England allow foreign grain to be eaten by the people of Ireland, to keep them from starving, if given in charitv? I apprehend that she would not Her agriculturist are tenanting the jails, on account o' the low prices of provis i-ns though British wheat sells at 25 or 3Jp rcent. more than foreign wheat of ns good quiltty, may be imported at r.ii.l nejuh 76 0")0 quarters of the latter, or v 5 fv) :,)) bushels were on hand; not one giain of which could be sold for ho ae consumption, even though. offered fo- the relief of the poor at a penny per bushel' Such arc the British laws, that a gtn'lem.vi in the U. S cannot make n iv scot to a fri.-nd in England of a bar. rcl of superior flour, unless it is smuggled ! The conduct of England as to Ire?an 1 is according to the plan once projecwd in the former, to prevent tlie people oUhc latter born catching herrings i2 their crjr: havs. because it injured the Hi itish t rade in ha at'ice! I do not know how the law stands hut the proaVnt'.v 's, that a cargo oi nVu- sent from the United States, to he iriven without pi tee so the people of L land, wouhl not be admitted to an entv but have to be !j.n h? d for ''exportation ' Such would be the casein England, at this time.

possessed of the notion that some regulations for the protection of the industry of his own people, might not be improper seeing that other nations practice the policy and have caused it to act against the prosperity of his empire. The probable design of Alexander to possess himself of Turkey and by that possession to acquire the means of crea ting a naval power, second only (if it should not be ultimately superior), to that of Great Britain, has brought down upon him the indignation of many of the loyal and leg'uimate editors for which, no doubt, he is sorry very sorry, indeed! When he takes Turkey, at he will surely do) if not now, before Ions, unless he is assassinated ICTas his father was whose death was predicted in London,) or other viie speedily disappears from the stage when he raises up a naval power that will at least command the Mediterranean as he very easily can do when he looks to Egypt and casts his eye over the British possessions in India, which he regards as Napoleon Bonaparte regarded them then will the fiiends ol legitimacy in the United States and in Europe, be icady to agree with what I have said many times that Aafioleon ilexendr and the government of George were influenced by the same principle of domination and lust of authority. They will also be ready to say, that, as the un just opposition of Great Britain to the revolution in France raised up Bonaparte, so the necessity to allay or cast out one dvil that had crossed their own unhallowed path, has created another that may devour them. When the contest takes place, we shall regard it with perfect indifference, except with a wish that these fioivrrs, like the Kilkenny cats, may destroy each other to their very "tails." The paUr system. The Boston Galaxy, after noticing the establishment of a new bank at a village in Massachusetts and the great amount of its paper throw n into circulation, thus proceeds . u The Franklin bank is located at Greenfield, a small neat village near the confluence of Dcerfteld and Connecticut rivers, and considerably celebrated for conference meetings, intellectual ladies, and hen pecked husbands W'c have not been so fn lunate as to get a view of one of these bills; but the following device is respectfully offered to the directors to be engiaved for a new emission, if they have not already adopted a similar one, viz: Let there be a representation of the inside of the bank, the president at " his desk engaged in prayer, the directors playing at all-fours, the discount clerk keeping the game, the cashier, (being also a member of the Temperate Society) mixing a pitcher of brandy toddy, and the teller counting out religious tracts. Over the whole gioup let there be a domestic hen. flipping her wings, and holding in her beak a cock half stripped of his feathers his spurs broken off and his majestic comb dropping blood Iftherebea vacancy in the back ground, it maybe filled with a thin, weazle-faced, pindle shanked broker, a rusty jack knife in one hand, to denote his profession, Hopkins' Body of Divinity in the other, as emblematic of his religion, and the noose of a bell-rope round his neck, to designate how he made his money, and to what destination his love of money will bring him at last. With this emblematic engraving, the whole tribe of counterfeiters, pat, present, and to come, may be set at defiance." NF- Vv'-YORK. MAT 31 . VERV L'VTE FROM EUROPE. Latt evening the packet ship Amity, captain Maxwell, air ved from Lherpool whence she sailed on the first of May. Tlve editors of the Commercial Advertiser have received from their correspondents copies of file s of London papers to the evening of Ap.il 29. It had been hoped that the next ship would bring some consolary news in regard to the melancholy fate of the Albion and her crew ; at least we all wivh- ! cd to believe that the first account had been exagei atcd. ccordingly when the , Amity was at.nourced yeterday as be ing below, the utmost anxiety was manifested to learn some further news, and great impatience that she did not instantly arrive at the dock in dispite of winds or waves When we landed from the shin with our papers, the croud waiting was so numerous that it was some time before wc could leave the dock W e regret however, to state that the first accounts were tiuc, in all their distressing particulars.

II NAVAL ACTION A Letter from Ancona, dated March 22, says kt There is now no doubt whatever of the total defeat of the Turkish fleet, which is confirmed to us by the arrival of two vessels, one from Santa Mau ra, in 9 days, and one from omu, in ll days. The Greeks took 26 vessels, 17 of which were shins of war. and 4 of them fi igates; the others were transports. Of the whole of the Tuikish fleet, only six have taken refuge in the Gulf of Lcpanto. The Captain, Bey Ismael Gibraltar, and the Algcrine Admiral, were taken prisoneis. The passengers who aie here affirm that the most extraordinary sight in thi battle, was, to see a Greek schooner take a ftigajc by boarding,and very smab Greek vessels conduct in triumph so many Tuikish ships into the port Hydra.
