The Shipping Interest has lately been thrown into a kind of ferment by the mode in which it has been attempted to levy the Property Tax. The owners of ships are charged with the profits made on each vessel; by which means no deduction is allowed for losses on those which prove unfortunate: no balance is struck between loss and gain. The interest of the shipping owners extends into most branches of the community even our nobles have concerns in ships, and occasionally advance great capitals in their adventures. The aflair is, therefore, likely to produce much sensation; and possibly, that very sensation may lead to consequences with which the public at large : Officers, Subalterns, and Soldiers-The cause of the Bourbons is lost for ever:-The legitimate dynasty which the French nation has adopted, re-ascends the throne: it is to the Emperor Napoleon, our Sovereign, that it alone belongs to rule over our fine country!

Marshal of the Empire, (Signed) Prince of MosKWA. Lons-le-Saulnier, March 15, 1815 This phenomenon in villany has given occasion to the following Jeu d'Esprit. A Frenchman's Oath, or Loyalty in Perfection : refined loaf, broken, 20s. per cwt.; on refined loaf sugar, complete and whole, 34s. per cwt. The demand for sugar in the refined market has been during the last week on the alert: exportation has been so extensive that the stores may be said to have been cleared: contracts are even entered into for many weeks forward. Raw Sugars, however, are not in equal demand: those which must be consumed at home, rather hang on hand; at least, the market for Before he left Paris Ney swore to the King, In Italy blood has certainly been shed, between Murat, who is advancing northward, and the Austrian troops. COFFEE also feels the benefit of very exThe stocks in the tensive exportation. Docks are in consequence getting low: they are less by about 10,000 casks, and 17,000 bags, than they were last year, at this time. The market, however, is rather unsettled; one day beginning heavily, and ending briskly; the next, perhaps, beginning briskly, and ending heavily.

The same is collected. demand for exportation continues unabated; and the most ordinary qualities find purchasers. Speculation is out of the question, under present circumstances; as every day may be expected to bring in a supply. NAVAL STORES are held back for higher prices. Rough Turpentine is expected in from America: but this is not certain.The same uncertainty prevails in other articles; and the price with the demand fluctuates according to private opinion; and not according to any fixed public feeling. RUM has been exceedingly heavy Brandy has experienced great fluctuation: Geneva, on the whole, a shade lower. AGRICULTURAL REPORT. ESSEX. The weather proving so fine through the principal part of this month, large quantities of manure have been laid on the ground for the spring crops, and the sowing is nearly completed. The tender Jands wrought well, while the strong soi's were in a cold state, and not so pleasant for the reception of the seed. Beans are considered to be full plants, peas not quite so good. The late frosts have prevented the wheats re-assuming the fine color they exhibited some time ago, and the looked for alteration cannot take place till some warm weather ensue. The early drilled oats make a great show, and the barleys in some places afford as good prospect. Clovers are getting forward, although the plants are somewhat defective. Tares promise a good supply, either for seed or sowing. The meat markets in the country, continue pretty steady. All lean stock is in a small degree advanced in price. Small pigs in much request.
