Aso, JUNE O.—Wasa Lan has obtained permis sion from the Emperor to import 6,000 barrels or -corn duty free; Uleabargs Lan hopes to obtain the same favour. The accounts of the scarcity that prevails in o,terbotten are extremely distressing; rye is at the enormous pike of 16 or 17 dollars. Srtroaaie, JULY I.—The Deputies of the South German States are expected to meet next week to Darmstadt, to determine the manner of carrying into efoct, by the whole union, the measures adopted by Baden, Bavaria, &c. respecting the manufiictures and produce of France. The canton of Schaffhausen has now acceded to the prohibitory measures adopted by some of the &,visa cantons. Zurich seems as little inclined as Basil to adopt these measures, though Berne has done so. A Zurich Journal says, that the Great Council, during its summer season, from the 17th to the 21st June, Aliscussed, among other matters, the commercial relations with foreign countries, which were discussed with perfect impartiality, and in con formity with the experience of centuries, and the peculiar situation of the Swiss cantons, and not with a view to parsing events or to measures, the imitation of which, though it would be called reprisal, would have injurious consequences, and make bad worse. BERLIN, JULY 6.—The committee for the anni hilation of the paper currency again burnt, on the 4th instant, to the amount of 892,499 dollars, in bonds, &c. The whole sum hitherto burnt is above 137,366,000 dollars. We are happy to say, that from the investigations set on foot in theliniversity of Marburg, the students are found to be wholly innocent of the charges lately brought against them. At Grissen the inquiry is not yet concluded.

DANIEL O'CONNELL. TILE NEW MARRIAGE ACT. The bill, as amended by the Lotds, entitled •• An Act to amend certain provisions of the anth George 11. for the better preventing clandestine marriages," has been printed. It recites the act of George IL, which enacted that all marriages by licence, where either of the pries (widows and widowers of course excepted, who are deemed by law capable of judging for themselves) was under age, and 'where the consent of the father, guardians, or mother, was not bad, should be void. These pro visions it repeals, and further enacts, that in all CARS of marriage solemnised by license before the passing of the new act, without the consent specified, and where the parties shall h ire continued to live together as husband and wife till the death of one of them, or till the passing of dint act; or small only have discontinued their cultabitations in coosequeuce of proceedings pending, touch• ing the validity of such marriage, in such cases the marriage, if nut others ise invalid, shall be deemed to be good and valid to all intents and putpuses whatsoever. Thi, clause, however, is not to extend to any marriage declared invalid before the passing of this act by any Court of competent jurisdiction, nor to any mar riage whine either of the patties shall have intermarried with any other person during the life of the other party; nor to any mar riage, the invalidity of which has been establishc-d upon trial, or the validity of which haii beet duly brought into question in any causes or suits in law or equity. This act is not to affect any property or title of honour which may have been enjoyed by any peison under colour of the invalidity of any marriage, by reason of its having been solemnised without the proper consent. although no sentence of judgment has been pronounced against the validity of such marriage. Nor is this net to affect or call in question any proceeding which has taken place under the autho rity of any Court, or in the administration of any personal estate or ethwts, or in the execution of any will or testament, or in the performance of E.y trust. The act then goes on to enact, that no license for any marriage shall, from and alms the ist day of neptember next, be granted until oath shall have been made by the parties applying for such license to the affect required by this act. Where both parties are of 21 years, each shall make oath that they are respectively, and that each believes the other tube 21 years or upwards. Where both parties ate under age, but alleged to be a widower and widow, the allegativa must be sworn to in the same manner. Where only one of the parties is under' age, and the minor is alleged to be a widow tit a widower, the ailegatiou must be sworn to in the same manner. Where both or either of the parties shall be under age, and neither a widow uor a widower, both shall mac oath w the tame manner as above specified—that is to say, each shall make oath as to hint• self and herself, and as to his or her belief witu respect to the other party. In the latter case both parties shall also make oath that the consent of the necoasary person or persons has been given. Where it is alleged that both, or tither at the parties, are, or is, of the age of Set, the license shall nut be granted uutii the register of the baptism of such parties or party is produceil. aid proved upon oath by souse other witness to be a correct extract. If the register be not in England, the fact must be proved on oath tu tine ss'isthetiou of me person authoria.d to grunt the license.

" TO HIS ['MEERUT MARQUESS WEI.LESSLEY, &O. &C. " Merrion Square, Jody 11, 1822. " MY Lora,—To-morrow you will finally decide the cha racter of your administration. The oppressed and neglected Catholics of Ireland had thudly hoped that they might have ob tamed from a friend placed to the exalted situation which your Racellency occupies, a recommendation in favour of then . Yon took an early opportunity to crush that hope for ewer. In your reply to the address of the Catholics ef the county ot Clare, you toll the Irish people, that you came here • to administer Cie laws, ant to alter Mean.' " My Lord, but s few weeks elapsed when you deemed it expedient to recommend We insurrection art, and We act to suspend the Habeas Corpus. That the latter was not wanliag, is now admitted by every body—and that any neeersity is a justification of We former, remains in my humble judgment to be proved. But lel these pass. " It still remain* for your Excellency to administer t,, lams. Hitherto the C./o°lles have felt IA advantages from your Ex eellency's administration.—The system by which we ate go ♦urned—the cold system of exclusion sod distrust is precisely tote same with that o. the most rigid of your predecessors. One principal actor, to he sure, has been withdrawn from the scene. and we may deem the alteration a compliment ; but I am yet to learn what benefit we are to derive from it--and I appeal to your Lordship whether the change to which I allude, has nut been amply compensated fur to the exclusiussists by the la moy by the removal of the oiliest, kindliest mid best public man Ireland has yet ever yet seen—Mr. Grant. Your Excellency came to administer tAs I•nass—my Lord, I moat respectfully, but at the same time moat firmly call upon you to administer them. The exhibition intended (it is said) for to-morrow, is plainly a violatiou of the law. It is an open and public excitement in ab, sack of die peace It is a d rest pro vuootion le ticoult. It obstrm ts toe public street by colectimi on the one side an insulting, and on the other an i, ritoted cuiiconrse of persons.

I could not afford to lose that public confidence • and yet I freely consent to forfeit it all, un -I.;ss I am able to deiumistrate to any judicial tribunal, that the mutual exhibitions of tlie I2th of July are illegal.
