C3 7 tfc3 LATE FROM EUROPE. The packet ship Ajux, at New York, brings London dates to the 19th, and Liverpool lo the iJlst February. ENGLAND. On the 5th Fob. the King in person delivered his Speech. It possesses more explicitness th;in has before characteri zed these addresses. It strongly re commends to Parliament to consider what remedies may be applied for the correction of acknowledged abuses in the Church ttstahlishment rand asks lo be entrusted wiih such additional powers as may be found necessary for controlling and punishing the disturbers of the pub lic peace in Ireland. Cobbett denomina ted it "a brutal and a bloody speech." The King's Speech is silent about Emancipation, and the London Standard says: Ii is confidently asserted that his Majesty's Ministers have abandoned their plan for emancipating the slaves in three years. 1 his statement is given out on the authority of the friends of the Minis ters, and by tin; Societies formed to pro mote the immediate abolition of slavery. The Parliamentary debates are the chief affairs of interest, and especially those relating to Ireland. The insurrec tion bill, which invests the military au thorities with the whole control of Ire land, would undoubtedly pass. It was justified on the sole plea of necessity, and all but Mr. O'Connell, and a few of his friends, seemed to admit that the plea was good.- Wesley an Missions. The receipts of ; the Wcsleyan Missionary Society, for the year ending Dec. 31st, 1832, exceed ed 47,000 sterling, or 8211,000. IRELAND. The weekly report of the Cholera in Ireland, issued in Dublin for the week ending 2Gth Jan. is as follows: new ca ses, 558; deaths, 243; recoveries, 312. FRANCE. The naval preparations at Brest conti nued to be prosecuted with undiminished energy, and some of the ships of war were already in a condition to put to sea. Galignani's Messenger states that it is reported that the Minister of War con templates an immediate reduction of tin army, to the extent of nearly 200.000 men, equalling about one squadron of batt dion in every regiment. W take the following from the Jour nal du Commerce of Lyons, of the 27ili ult. "Two days ago a mercantile house was opening some hales of Cotton, when to the astonishment of those encased in the operation, there was found in one of them the body of a negro bent double and carefully packed in the middle of it." SPAIN. Accounts from Spain, received by the French journals, state that some partial disturbances in that kingdom had been effectually put down, and that Don Car los was under arrest in his own apart ments. PORTUGAL. Several skirmishes have recently ta ken place between the opposing parties in Portugal, in which each party claimed the advantage. It seems generally admitted, even by the English journalists who have been sanguine of the success of Don Pedro's expedition, that his case is now almost desperate. It is reported that the Cholera had broken out at Oporto. This is ihe first account of the appearance of the Chole ra, either in Portugal or Spain. turkey. Commercial letters from Smyrna, to the btn Jan. assert that a treaty had been concluded between Russia and the Por te, in which the Emperor Nicholas agrees to succor the Snltan with a fleet? and with an army of 60,000 men. A Pans date of the 17lh Feb. states that an armist.ee hud been concluded he. tween he lno and Ibr,llmm Pacha, with- I ConslanUiiople, Dec. 2G. The great- l.l . -I- I fPI. Q.illnn est gloom prevails uere. inu -umuu and his people appear to have fallen into state of apathy, indicative of a total dis solution. The former gives up his case as desperate, and does not venture to ex cite the people's minds by artificial means, lest he should not be able to calm them nfriiin and keen them within bounds. The unfortunate result of the late battle of Koniah, and the captivity of the Grand Vizier, leaves the capital without means of defence. There are still, perhaps, 30,000 Turkish troops dispersed in Asia iMinnr. nnd 10 000 recrtdars in reserve but their spirit does not correspond with the threatening danger, nor is there any able leader possessing sufficient self con fidptipn nnd whn is considered as able to restore good fortune to the standards of the Sultan. Redschid Pacha was the only man possessed of these qualifica tions. His former good fortune has de serted him, and gone over to his younger adversary. lie fought valiantly, and when his de- out on 'lent was decided, devoted nimseii 10 death, which however, he did not hnd. Superior to his adversary in the number of his troops, he unhappily did not act with prudence, which an able general should never lose sight of. He resolved on the 21st to fight a battle which should decide the late of the campaign at one blow. Wiih this view, he followed Ibra him into the defiles of Karaman to attack him (here. His measures were nearly as follows: The main body of the Sultan's troops, about 42,000 in number, chiefly Albanians, and 500 of the Grand Vizier's household troops, under his own com mand, were to make the principal attack on the centre of the Egyptians, while the Turkish cavalry divided into two corps of G,000 men each, was to engage the wings of Ibrahim's army, and attack when it should see an opportunity. Ibrahim, perhaps, guessed tins plan, and favored by tin; defiles, had sent strong columns against the Grand Vizier's wings; leaving ! in the centre only sufficient troops to cov er his movements. He had scarcely reached the extremity of the wings of the Grand Vizier, when he impetuously at tacked tin: Turkih cavalry and dispersed it, and then attacked the Grand Vizier himself on both fl uiks. Unprepared lor this attack, and enga- i LrCd Willi the IVvntljm renin whir l. Iind tj i '" already broken, he hastily collected some ot ins best troops to oppose the Egyp tians, but in vain. Nothing remained but to make the enemy pay as dear as possible for the victory, which was una voidable; this was done, and the Egyp tians did pun hase their triumph by a san guinary conflict of six hour' duration. The loss on each side was nearly equal. When the Albanians were dispersed, the Grand Vizier, with his faithful hous.enoId troops, defended himself to the utmost, till he was wounded and taken prisoner. The Egyptians are said to be now so weakened, that even now, if the Turkish troops in Asia Minor could be assembled quickly enough, they might be compel led to make u most dangerous retreat. But they need not fear this theres no genius or spirit in the councilsof the Sultan. Suppression bill. The Trades and the Volunteers had suspended their political operations to deliberate on their person al security. A great general meeting wa.- to take place the next day.

The bad wea- ther, however, did not allow him to pro .n..tto u nrlvnnfnTes. The panic ter- ror that has seized the Turks renders them, it is said, unable to make any re-! stance. Diplomacy will now step in. Young Ladies for Sale.h one of the Calcutta newspapers, the following advertisement appeared: "Be it known that six fair pretty young Ladies, with two sweet and engaging young children, lately imported from Europe, having the roses of health blooming on their cheeks, and joy sparkling in their eyes, possess ing amiable manners, and highly accom plished, are to be raffled for next door to the British Gallery. Scheme, twelve tickets at twelve rupees each. llow shamefully they treat young ladies in Calcutta.' " Airful Catastrophe. The Redncator of Saturday contains an article from the Constitutional del Cauca, stating that in the month of July last, while Mass was being celebrated in the church of Sig chos, near Tacunga, in the Republic of Equador, South America, on the day of the solemn festival del Corpus, fire was communicated to the building by means of a rocket, and that in the rush of the audience to the door, it became shut, and the whole congregation perished in the Jlumes, except the Curate, who escaped through a window! 1 he number ot lives lost was esiimated at more than 500, be sides children. out the intervention of th e great powers.

The packet ship Ib,coe has arrived at New York, bringing Liverpool dates lo the 23il, and London to the 24 1 h February. The Cotton mar ket at Liverpool had been very dull for Ihe pre ceding three or lour weeks, and prices had some what declined. The fol lowing is a brief summa ry of the political intelligence by this arrival. The most important news relates to the distracted slate of Ireland, and the means which are proposed to be taken by P ail in men t to restore order. The Suppression bill had passed the House of Lords. The Prime Minister himself admitted that the bill violated the Con stitution, but the public safety was a pa ramount consideration. Courts m.artial are lobe established in the disturbed dis tricts their proceedings and punish ments are summary and without appeal the habeas corpus act suspended, and all persons required to remain in their hou ses between sunset and sunrise, on pain of being sentenced to transportation. Great agitation was manifested at Dublin on the 20th, in consequence of the SATURDAY, APRIL G, 1833. (pOn Monday last, Joseph R. Llovd, Esq was re elected Magi-trat of Police, and Spencer U. Lotten, James YY. Clark, Lly Porter. Dan- lord Richards, and hphraim Dicken, Commis sioners of the town of Tarborougli, for the en suing year. (Or We learn from the Raleigh papers that the Supi erne Court of this State adjourned on Tups- -day week last it had been in session nearly three months. (QFrom the last Halifax Advocate we learn that Gov. Branch, the lale representative of thai district in Congress, will not be a candidate for re-election and .that. Col. Andrew Joymr has consented to become a candidate for that ohice. Post Office Department. We have received from the General Post Office a pamphlet copy of certain new regulations, which have been adopted by Mr. Barry, and announced on the 4th ult. They dis tribute the duties of .the Assistant Post Masters General, Chief Clerk and Subor dinates, into three divisions as follows: "I ne nrst, the fcoutliern Division, un der the superintendence of C. K. Gard ner, the Senior Assistant, will comprise the States of Virginia, (with the District of Columbia,) North Carolina, South Ca rolina, Georgia, Florida Territory, Ala bama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas Territory, Tennessee, Kentucky, India na, Illinois and Missouri.

The third Division, will be that of finance, under the superintendence of the Chief Clerk, O. B.. Brown, who shall be the Treasurer of the Department. There shall be under his control the "Book Keepers," the "Solicitor's Office," the "Pay Office," the "Examiner's Of fice," the "Register's Office," and the "Dead Letter Office," to the last of which shall be attached the business of the general letter file. "9th. No money shall be paid into the Department, directly lo the Treasurer, nor paid out of it, directly by him." Then follow other regulations for the better securing, remitting, and disbursing of the Post Office Funds accompanied by the two following, which we extract verbatim, for the benefit of the parties concerned: "19th. When payments are made for transportation, either to meet drafts made by Contractors, or to be forwarded to them, the principal Pay Clerk shall fur nish the Treasurer with a list of the checks required, having his certificate an nexed that it is correct. The Treasu rer, if he approve the list, shall add tho word "Approved," with his signature. The checks shall then be drawn, entered and signed, by the Treasurer, who shall send them, with the certified list, to the Assistant Postmaster General in whose division the payment is to be made, (or in his absence lo the other Assistant) for his signature.

Claims on Denmark. We learn from the Petersburg Chronicle, that the Com missioners appointed for carrying into effect the Convention with Denmark, and to distribute the. fund provided to indem nify the claims of American merchants for spoliations upon their commerce, have closed the commission and midp their final report to the State Department. The time limited bv thw trpntv the ad Of Congress, for llir n.i;..clmnnr nf these claims, and distribution of the fund will expire on the 4th of April, after which time the plniminfa nriii k ttJ , ""tiMUUiO 1111 UZi l C I " to receive their respective proportions of the fund, at the Treasury Department, of which due notice will be given.
