eilS pank or WaTSaW IS more circulated here even than the paper, of the Bank of England Is Tn London, as there are notes for the value 2s, and this paper is taken in the smallest vile lages throughout the kingdom with the same willingness as in the capital, and no one thinks ot applying for value for it at the bank, though all the notes arc payable to the bearer. You may judge from this that the people do not thlnk they are much threatened with danger. 1 will not dwell on the crueltes committed by the Russians. Your countrymen in the highest degree of civilization, would not be- lieve in the possibility of the atrocities of which those barbarians are every day guilty. Murder, pillage, rape, are some of the con comitant evils of war; but at the present time it belongs to the Russians to add to the cat alogue by nflicting horrors on harmless and defenceless people, which could not in any way be justified or excused.

 The conduct of the cabinets in Europe in regard to this country is inexplicable, espe-. cially that of France. How does it happen that the French Ministry remain indifferent to the efforts making here on behalf of France, in arresting the progress of an enemy who was marching to her frontiers? The conduct of Prussia and Austria IS conceivable enough; but that of France in prostrating herself be- fore the Russian autocrat, even to a greater extent than Prussla, is hardly credible. In Prussia the French agents and Frenchmen generally, who are travelling with French passports, are stopped merely because they arc suspected of being on their way to'Po- land.

 In Austria the same rigour towards us is cb | served. General Excelmans, who lately ar rived here for the purpose of taking the com mand ot the cavalry, was stopped in Austria, but he escaped and crossed the Vistula by swimming. Neither letters nor papers reach us. Hands have been laid at Rreslau, Thorn, and other towns in Prussia, on money belong ing to private individuals as well to banking houses of this place. The most extraordina- " system of injustice and oppression has, in fact, been adopted towards us on all sides.

 wish could draw you picture sufficiently ex- presslve of the interest which the debates of Mon day night and Tuesday morning have excited; but you may form some idea of it, when 1 assure you that they kept me charmed to the spot from 10 at night till in the morning. Leaving the minor de- bators recommend to your particular attention the speeches of Earl Grey and the Duke of Yelling ton The former surpassed my most sanguine expec- tatons; his speech being far better than any have yet readi indeed the reporters gave but a garbed, and often meagre, specimen of the oratory display ed on such occasions, emitting, not unlrequenily, whole periods Earl Grey is d mort powerful, and most agreeable speaker, with clear, sonorous voice. well modulated pronunciation and most winning action The cheering he received was loud and en- thuslastic much so, that frequently half thought myself in Drury lane theatre. His opponent, the Duke of Wellington seemed not over pleased with tl attention to this latter distinguished parsonage. He IS living marble statute. There seems to be no blood in his body; all is bone and snew. When speaking of the revolutionary tendency of the Reform Bill, his features assumed btter irOnical expres- sion, and the People were never mentioned without sarcastic smile. To hear this man once is sulli- cient to give clear insight into his sentiments on popular rights; and am now convinced that he Is the very first cause of the present mania for re- form. lf during his administration, only Birmng- ham, Manchester, and the unrepresented parts of London, had obtained representatives the people off England would have been satisfied. Whher the existing glamour for reform will lead, is hard to tell

There is rumor to-day on Change, that Prince Leopold is again on the tapis, as King of Belgium. This has no foundation whatever the contrary the Prince of Orange has u positive assurance of support from England, where he has made himself great favore, much more so than Prince Leopold whose nclinatons towards his adopted country, are to the mildest term, at least doubtful. 9l.'-

 As to France l am sorry to say my worst fears are sadly corroborated There is no doubt that French liberty is in bad hands. When say bad hands, do not allude to the Ministry, no, they are the mere instruments of superior parsonage, who has seized as it were, the bull by the horns and thrown net over him. l have it as positive and from most respectable source, that Lafayette, and all the liberals, sorry and lament bitterly that they have allowed themselves to be deceived by this willy scion of Royalty, that they all anxious to get rid of him and his band of poisoners of national liberty and independence There is not the least doubt that he is terms of intimacy with the Holy Alliance nay, that he has entered into terms of com promise with Meternch himself cannot explain myself further, but you may rely on the truth of what say.
