l• TER . 1 ; (11VD8, SATURDAY. • HALT-PAit Two oTtoca• Consols hive been done at 781—noW Tnai— tnarket looking up—and all the Bears buying in their accounts. It is to be observed, that although Consols have been done 78i for account, they have not been under 7SI ft.r money, at any time this day. The orders, both town and country, for purchases of money stock, continue to flow in. Spanish has been done at 34—hut the declara tion of two jobbers, not indeed of the 111fteaity breed, but still of magnitude suflicieat to affect the market, brought Spanish down to 35. The market has, however, rallied, and the present pricy, of Spanish Bonds is 35i-36—market excellent. The quantity of actual money purchases to-day, has been unprecedented., This is attributable, to the Unprecedented difficulty experienced by the Bears, in obtaining bonds at almost any price ) fob delivery to the Bulls—whose demands an no longer be evaded. Colombian stands in a situation similar—the money buyers insisting on delivery. Hence, these bonds have adviniced from 651 to 661—not withstanding which, the supply is inadequate to the demand for delivery. Extract of a private letter from Constantinqle, bated March 10. 1823.—" A curious paper it said to have been lately presztaed to the Sultan. This paper or document is nothing less than a writing which was Mund by a guardian of the tomb at Mecca, to whom Mahornet appeared at Midnight, whilst he was reusing the Koran near the tomb; after the Prophet had made him understand the ob ject of his appearance, by telling him how much the mitconduct of his people had troubled him, he observed that since the late commotlens /70,000 of his people had gone into the ether world, out cof which number only seven individuals had been found faithful ; that the remainder, by their neglect of prayers, giving themselves up to luxurious plea sures, moat of care of the poor, and indifference towards the Ullimabs, or Heads of the Faith had thus forfeited his regard and inteicession ! The 'gaper then continues deploring this fallen state of his flock, and predicting several events which are to occur, bueb as the disappearance of the sun, mis conduct of the women, loss of the Koran, and con cludes with a mandate, that this warning be copied and spread from city to city, and village to village, throughout the Ottoman Empire. This is likewise to have the double effect of giving flesh vigour to • their endeavours to put down their enemies, u more rigid perfOrmance m their religious duties, as well as to keep them from molesting the unotfending.-a- The guardian of the tonib was directed by Maltumet to Ibrw.iid the paper to the Sultan. The event to which I allude as giving weight to the tOrcgeing curious circumstance, was the awful and destructive fire on the Ist of March. LONDON FASHIONS FOR MA Y.

Tile company, as Well as a 'timber of elegantly dressed ladies in the gallery, were entertained by some admired aunts, catches, anti glees," by several professional gentlemen.--;• Brother Attwond presided at the Itarpinkhotil. His Royal Highness Was in excellent,health and spirits, and largely contributed to the conviviality and har mony of the meetings Opinions have recently been promulgated in Par liament, and circumstances have occurred, that show our political connection with the Holy Alliance is much greater than is generally imagined. This mint lead to embarrassment with raped to the courtesy shewn to Foreign Ministers, to the recep tion in such cases must differ as to the Ministers of Austria, Russia, and Prussia, and the attention shown to the Ambassador of spain. The etiquette ob served at Levees and Drawing-rooms must, of course, be affected, when there appears to be a great diversity of opinion on important subjects in the courtly and ministerial circles, and must prevent them, we imagine, from being held so lifted kilo they otherwise would. On Wednesday and Thursday a most interesting .ceremony was performed by various ladies of dis tinction at the Crown and Anchor Tavern, in pro motion of the London Society for promoting Christianity among the Jews. The room was fitted up in a neat style, and stalls were placed Mond the room, so as to give the place the appearance of a Bazaar, on which were placed fanciful articles of var;ous descriptions ; such as &ills bedsteads, pin cushions, fans, purses, scissors, reticules, baby linen, &r. the productions of the objects of the Society in the country. The ladies who attended are friends to the institution, and sat each day from 12 to five o'clock, during which period 700 to 1000 persims visited the room, consisting of ladies and gentlemen, who did not confine themselves to the mere value of the trifling article, but paid round sums, in order to contribute to the funds of the charity. The ladies were elegantly attired, and exerted every effort to gain customers to the shop, and the , . did not fail in their object. The society was established in the year 1809, and since that period has nict with considerable success. The scriptures have ben widely disseminated among this class of persons, the effect of which has been very great. The produce of the articles disposed of will atibrd extensive means to the funds of the institution. It was pleasing to witness so much beauty and splendour uniting their efforts in the promotion of so desirable and charitable en object.

Albw days ago the Royal College of PhysLians were presented with a human heart, which was found in sarcophagus dug out of the ruins of art Egyptian temple, and which still retains its full size and fleshy softness. The sarcophagus was im ported into Malta before being opened, where its contents Wert explored in the presence of several persons, and some of the medical men of the island. The most persevering force of the hammer and chisel was required before the lid of the sarcophagus could be removed. It *as found to be filled with a bitu. urinous mattter, and containing a ttuid of the colour and appearance of old port wine, and which fluid immediately enveloped this most unique relic of human mortality. The heatt is now preserved kit spirits in the usual Mariner of anntortlital prepara tions The fluid is kept in a phial separately, and according to the analysis of Sir•Humplary Davy. consists principally of vegetable extractive matter with a portion of resin. • In St. Petersburgh there were Ildt eating-bousiii, or restaurateurs, 1.52 of which have been closed by the police, since the tat of March'.
