In order to mark the working of the Colonial. office more closely, and the way in which it oaks to codify inquiry, and even defeat the plainest ream mendatioas, let as examine Mr. Hawse's conduct. It will be in the reenllection of oar readers that the committee of last session wee a pp ointed to inquire into the affairs of Guiana es well ast3s7lon. Mr. ADDIRLEY complained on Wednesday that the ncommendations of the committee with regard to Guiana, and in per ticular its suggestion that the salary of the governor was excessive, had been disregarded. Mr. Hewes denied that this was the case. The words is the committee's report are " Year committee is of opinion that it is a subject of inquiry, not merely whether the special grounds ea which the increase in question took place still exist, but whether, all circumstances being °medusa, a sahtry of less &menet than 6,00 W. per annum wo u ld not suffice to induce a person perfectly qualified in every inspect to undertake the duties of the MU*, ad to bear the requisite expenditure." Mr. HAWES, atter reading this passage, declared—amid indignant cries • " Oh, oh "—that it was not a recommendation to reduce the . salary. Whoa the committee calls for witnesses in express terms, Lord GREY and Mr. liAwss say that this is dictation, to which •the colonial government cannot submit; when the committee points out the exorbitant amount of a salary, Lord GREY and Mr. Hawn main tain that it ought expressly to have re com seeded its reduction. But Mr. HAWES went terther; he broadly asserted that the colony approved o g the high salary. "New elections," he said, " had taken place in Guiana on a more extended constituency and the Court of Policy had not again raised the quetion." This statement is contrary to fact. The ivgistrations under Governor Iltaxee', franchise ordinance gave a constituency, less by 200, than the Isenstituency under the old system. Mr. HAWES knows that the question of the governor's salary has been dropped by a court elected under a system that enalies the Governor to pack the Court of Policy with manageable members. Ile knows that in most of the districts the electors refused to compromise themselves by taking part in the farce of the elections. Mr. Hewn hes by a shuffle postponed the arrival of witnesses from Ceylon in this country, and urges on tbo resumption or inquiry in their absence ; he has justified the neglect of the committee's recommenda tions with regard to Guiana by assertions that are at variance with facts; and to bring his disingenuity to a climax he has thrown out groundless imputatiots as to the motives of those who have promoted inquiry into the affairs of Ceylon. He called the charge against Lord TORRINGTON " a most malicious case; '' he represented Mr. BAILLIE'S con duct as " marked by his usual want of candour." While extenuating the mr.duct of the government of which he forms a part, in a tissue of quibbles and evuions worthy of the Old Bailey, Mr. HAWEs showers down all sorts of unworthy imputations upon his opponents. It is clear from this first debate of the session on a menial topic that colonial reformers have to expect a vigorous and pretty unscrupulous resistance on the part of ministers. They have also, it is equally chyl ous, to be prepared for obstruction and misleading from parties who will volunteer their assistance in order to make them subservient to their own siriiiiier ends. We have heard that Mr. DisiteEnti when pressed to join the Colonial Reform Association, declined on the ground of his peculiar position in parliament, bat professed approbation of their ob jects, and great readiness to promote them to the utmost of his power. He showed on Wednesday how he intends to redeems this pledge. lie made the dispute between the Colonial-office and the Ceylon Committee the pretest for moving a formal vote of censure on ministers • he thereby enabled Lord JOHN RtSULL to shift the question from the conduct of ministers with regard to Ceylon to a general question of confidence in them. Lord JOHN thus obfained a vote, which, in point of fact, went no farther than a declaration that the House of Commons think him less unworthy of confidence than Mr. Die meet ; but which Mr. HAWES may represent, when it suits his purpose, as exonerating his extraordinary con duct towards the Ceylon Committee. The colonies are, for Mr. DISRAELI and mary of his party, a mere stalk ing horse, from behind which they seek to shoot their arrows at ministers. If the celestial reformers are not on their guard Mr. DISRAELI'S faction will perplex and hamper all their movements throughout the see size) as they did that of Wednesday. And yet the result of Wednesday's discussion is most encouraging to those who have the cause of colonial reform sincerely at heart. Before Mr. BRIGHT could place the question really at issue in a clear point of view Lord Jons Rosseee had successfully conjured up the bewildering mists of party passion ; and yet even with their aid he only parried Me Batour's motion by a majority of 109 over 100. ' There is, therefore, good reason to hope that if the cause of colonial reform is skilfully and judiciously advocated, the temper of the House et Commons is such as to compel ministers to give way to it. IT is very hard certainly to persuade Englishmen to do two things at once, and loth in consequence we are to give such advice. But it is urgent that the prejudice should be unlearnt, for with the determina tion to hunt for the time but one species of political game, nothing is so easy as to put the country on a scent ands chase, which leads it away from its true interests and baulks it of its meet desired and most attainable objects. . . . . _ It is qlite - evident that we have lost a year by the late outburst of protectionism. The townsfolk, menaced with having their bread taken from them, or measured out to them, have flown to arms and de tested their enemies; but in ea doing they have lost sight of every other object, of every other kind of re form. We are to have nothing done with the franchise, nothing with education, or with the universities,' or the church, or the opening of professions, with con sidering or equalising taxation. Ministers say they have done enough by heading free trade resistance. and they demand a new lease of power, without fur ther outlay of intellect, or exertion or reform. We shall thus be driven to the very verge of new elec tions without the people having obtained a single step in advance. These elections will take place, with the people disgusted and supine, whilst the aristocratic interests are united and animated. It is possible that the mere tory section will greatly gain in these elections; if they do, three-fourths of the whigs will go over to them. And the consequence will be another CASTLEILEAGII regime in England and in Ire land, which will inevitably give life and vigour to a 1 new and yet unknown democratic and insurrectionary spirit. Snob a prospect is menacing to all peaceable and industrious men, be they wisely liberal or wisely con servative, and steps should be taken to prevent such obnoxious and dangerous results. Instead, therefore, of singing peens for the triumph of free trade, libel rale ought to try to secure free trade and free every thing else by an extension of political rights and political knowledge. Rights, indeed, we shall not extend this year ; but facilities of knowledge may be wrung from the legislature, if drily pressed, and if Mr. MILNER OIIIBON, who has undertaken the cause, be supported as he deserves. We are aware, indeed, how jealous are both aristo credo and official classes of the people acquiring further political information. Both well be well pleased to treat politics as an amuilltion for the initiated to monopolies. But even they most perceive how the stream of knowledge, now beginning to flow in abun dance to the people, overleaps fiscal and legal restric tions. Hosts of publications, discussing the more important part of politic, that is, its very principles and bases in social life, circulate through the land at penny prices and by hundreds of thou ' sands. The law allows tide popular press to discuss theories, but not to tall facts. Those organs may preach, or, at least, ntaT imply, that there is no Gots Heaven, no sanctity in womanhood, no security in property ; bat they durst set say that Lord JOHN Roseau had transacted business in Downing-street, or that Admiral PAIIILEZ had blockaded the Firms. Facts are contraband with as anti' they become facts of history. And yet we woadsr thatthe great mesa of readers feed en *stare% and pictures, toe, of the most demoralising kied. The novel, which depicts the glorious life sad success et the Imaginary horglar and robber, is free to simulate; but the pones report, which retards the exposure sad eirevon of the burglar of real ii&—thsta the labourer is forbidden to read, unless he pays for it one-third or one.half of his day's wages. If society, or the state which rules and represents it, have one duty more imperious than another, it in that of duly promulgating the law, making known its justice, its purposes, and results. Bat the pro- otediege is oar courts of justice are only published for the slob. The poor, whom they concern, are denied the tasting of su ch wholesale but forbidden fruit. We will be boned to my, that a penny publi cation devoted to criminal bias would sell far and wide through the breadth of the land, and if not only it, bat the judicial proceedings were conducted with a view to decorum m well as justice, no more valuable or pregnant lesson could be sent forth. But ro—the taxes on knowledge close and dry up, except for that wealthy class which neither read nor profit by it. this great soma of popular self-knowledge and morality. Are subjects which bear upon wealth, or industry, or the progress or relations of other nations, or the events which bring on war or ensure these lees neoemary for the popular minS e ril -are ur middle clam, to whom three things are addressed, are often indifferent to them. The coniequence is, the exist ence of no public opinion or adhesion on the most grave and vital points. And home government itself, which has become a huge vessel, utterly immova ble without a popular breeze to fill its mods, does in truth but float sad drift from tide to tide, and from session to session, !saris( to invoke th ose i very breezes from which its only motion can be derived. Oar paper and stamp duties, which are the pre ventives in the way of public information, are dis graceful to the age. Fiscally they cannot be de fended. The Excise interfere with paper, not only as a bar to knowledge, but a bar to the perf e cti o n of its manufacture, el to our making it an article of export. Our stamp duty is a sham. It is a mere game certificate, compelling the bolder of a political pen to be responsible not to public opinion, but pri vate interest. And a• to the advertisement duty, that tax on the making known of people's wants, and especially o poor people's wants—its continuance by a legis lature,- which prides itself on cheapening corn and meat, and facilitating inch/try and earn ings, is an absurdity that only requires to be looked at steadily for a few minutes, in order to ensure an instant vote of abrogation. As to the revenue which it brings us, it is little more than the amount of the pension paid to her late ho...esty Queen ADELAIDE. So that for an annual sum so small that we did not begrudge it to • royal widow, we put a tax, amounting to prohibition, on one of the tint and most crying wants of the in dustrious and the needy. In private life we can got up thousands upon thousands of subscriptions for different branches of relief, all much needed no doubt and well applied. Cannot the same people in their public capacity abrogate a tax which acts as a bar to the efforts of that elan which is anxious to help itself? If the maintenance of the piper duties be an absurdity, and if the peaty stamp be • churlish and indefensible error, the persisting in the advertisement duty is an act in some measure of sloth, but in a greater degree one of meanness and infamy.

Na LONDON, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 8. Tut liberal party in this country is accused of holding the doctrine that colonies are not worth keep ing : we fear that it is not the liberals who have arrived at this conclusion, bat the officials ; for most certaisly to them, who have been taught, or been wont, to consider colonies in a government point of view, colonies are few of them worth keeping. What were colonies good for, in the eyes of such people ? They were good for taxation, good as a field of patronage, or as a monopoly of trade. The United States long since set the quettion of taxation at rest. No colony of English population will allow any revenue to be exported from it. Those who desire it, must at least come to earn and consume it on the spot in the shape of salary. And even this can only be done by keeping up an ascendancy party in the colony, gifted with the monopoly of political power, and willing to share it merely with a few sect out from Downing-street, in return for the real government and influence in the colony being entrusted to their hands. Bat America is the great colonial reformer; acd while the United States exploded the system of mother country taxa tion, Canada has exploded the system of governing by a league between official and colonial toryism. As to colonial free trade, that has carried itself. Cho very distance of our colonies rendered it inevi table that they should supply their necessities and make nee of markets in their own hemisphere. We were unable either to coerce them or to pay them, four being poli'ical and commercial enemies of their nearest neighbour,. All the good, therefore, that governments could descry in colonies has passed, or is fast passing away. And the great difficulty is, how are they to supply the absence of the old official links, or how replace them by some connexion more popular, more volun tary, more mutually beneficial, and more strong? That this cur be found, we believe; but let us first await Lord JOHN RVIIBILLL'S colonial programme. England, however, has other lands subject to her, not at all in the same category, and wrongly called colonies. These are countries of populous and con quered races, where the Englishman is only permitted to come as the master, the superintendent, the policeman, or the official. These are countries that know none of the rules or exemptions we have spoken of. They are corria6le d merei. Toey can be taxed for home purposes and for domestic caprice, their trade, nay, their very soil, monopolised. To talk of constitution or liberties connected with such a people is idle. We bold power on the principles of oriental despotism, which we wield as ruthlessly as NICUOLAS; whilst our governors, we are told, are very Havesue for flogging, confiscation, and murder. What control have we for the present, or shall we have for the future, to prevent such atrocities? None, save that wielded by parliament anl its committees. And the great effort of the Colonial-office, its secre taries, and its governors, is to cheat parliament, bam boozle its committees, screen the guilty, and put truth under an extinguisher. How is truth to be got at? It is quite plain, from the conduct of Lord TOSIINOTON, that the first act of a governor who has been guilty of cruelty from folly or from cowardice, is to crush the local press, quash local efforts to get up petitions, and build a thick wall round the colony to prevent accusation from coming forth. Send a commission of inquiry, urges a com mittee of the House of Commons. Impossible, ex claims the minister, you would discredit the govern ment. Send, then, a sufficient number of witnesses home. Oh, yes. Yon shall have the secretary of the colony to examine and one of the police magistrates. But there are witnesses on the other side, whom it is so advisable to hear. Oh, they cannot be spared; they would cost too much to bring home; the colony could FRANCE. PARIS, THUS/DAT, 6 30 r.e. Yesterday the sitting in the Assembly was taken up with the deb a t e o f amen d ments to the first clause of the education bill. None of these were adopted, and the house adjourned early. Tce whole of to•day's proceedings were also taken up till poet hour with the oontinustion of debate on amendments. Some altercation occurred between M. Lupin and M. Richardet, d propos of the insult offered to the latter at the tribune yesterday. It was ultimately private'y decided that a duel should take place to-morrow. The Constetutionnel says : "We are assured that the government has received from London news of a nature to lead to a hope that the difference which has arisen between England and the Greek government may be settled in an amicable manner." The government, on the approach of the anniver sary of the 24th February, has addressed the most energetic instructions to all the public functionaries, calling on them to use every means in their p3wer to prevent any manifestations which may disturb public tranquillity. " M. Bissette, representative of the people, elected at Martinique," says the Ceurrier du Havre," has just arrived by England at Havre," Before the public sitting yesterday the representa tives met in their bureaux to appoint a committee to examine the demand made for permission to prosecute M. Marc Dufraisse, representative of the people. The members of the Mountain assembled in full number to oppose the application, on the ground that the matter to which the prosecution well to refer went back to a period more than a year distant; that the charges were greatly exaggerated ; and, finally, that the representative applied against had already been condemned to an imprisonment of some months by the Court of Assizes of the Dordogne. Three bu reaux only declared themselves against the prosecu tion, the rest being in its favour. ITALY. NAPLES, Jmt. 29. The state trials still continue in suspense, and when or whether they will at all take place will be deter mined by the course of events out of the kingdom. The position is certainly a happy one for the govern ment, it having in its power to push matters to any extreme, should the future render it safe to do so, or else to quash the proceedings, and make a merit of necessity in the event of constitutional principles gaining ground. Oar carnival this year is by no means brilliant : there are no street festivities; and, u on a late occa sion at San Carlo, where formerly on such seasons there reigned nothing bat joy and mirth, only some half dozen masks appeared, and the theatre was nearly deserted. The tailing thus of all attempt to awaken gaiety amongst the people was complete, and the doors were shortly closed. 5 per Cents., 93. ROMAN STATES.—The following is from our correspondent: ROME, lan. 29. General Baragnay d'Hilliers has been lately adopt ing rather more vigorous measures than we had been accustomed to witness towards the ecclesiastical authorities ; and, although his recent acts have pro duced an immense degree of irritation and indigna tion amongst the neri, they cannot but be considered to have had a beneficial tendency towards the final settlement of the question at issue. What love was unable to effect, fear will probably bring about. The account of the French general's windiness has made a considerable sensation at Porrici, and the ever-fluo tasting resolution of the Pope seems to be now really fixed upon a speedy return to Rome, in order that hie presence may put a stop to further mischief. He is fully pomaded that he will be able to remedy all things,and the oamarilla iteelfeither yields to the menacing attitude of General Barapay d'Hilliers, or finds it impossible any longer to bridle the impatience of his holiness. Such is the account which I derive from the letter of a prelate about to leave Portici for this city, to serve, as he expresses himself, as avant courier to Pro Nona. I learn by letter from Frosinone that great prepara tions are being made in that town for the passage of the papal cortege—triumphal arches, inscription', and decorations being the order of the day with the mu nicipality. The loan, which wee hitherto considered a ens. god woos of the Pope's return, cannot be effected; but another step has been token to raise money by the sale of the beta dementia, consisting of property and estates is the legation ceded to the papal government by the treaty of 1816, of which part was mold soon after that period, and the remainder is now to be put up to mustiest, and mold to the highest bidder. A few millions of dollars may pos sibly be realised in this m an n er , an d if public confidence were not so mach shaken, a portion of the church property might be mortgaged, and its value put into circulation in the shape of paper, bearing a low rate of interest, seas to avoid the necessity of recurring to foreign capitalists under such disadvantageous conditions ; but those who are aware of the bitter degree of rancour long existing, and of late much increased, between the Preach and papal authorities, cannot but hesitate in believing that all difficulties are to be smoothed down so sud denly, and attribute the desperate resource of selling to the fear entertained by the cardinals of a serious rupture, and to the consequent necessity of their having cash in hand to defray the expenses of a se cond flight and exile. Whether this be an exagge rated view of the case or not I will not pretend decide, bat I can inform you as a certain fact, that their eminences are prepared to leave Rome at a moment's warning, should a popular outbreak here or • revolution in France endanger their personal wady. GERMANY. Yesterday ranked Prussia 'lnseam the BERLIN constitutiooal states of Europe. An event of such immense importance dwarfs all retrospective criticism. Let there be only good faith for the future, the tins of the past will be forgotten. After all, the birth has been realised; let us hope that it will live. The great act is already oomph te : the swearing is a mere ceremony. The oath has been already taken through theroyal pledge to take it. No formula can add to the solemnity of such a pledge. There will indeed be a crowd on Wednesday, in the Knight's-hall of the ' Schloss. The members of both Chambers and the royal princes will be there, all dressed in their finest clothes. But the only meaning of the show is, that it is the recognition of the cons.itution, a visible act of the monarch, withessed by hundreds of persons, and not a mere make-believe of the ministers. In order to give you some idea of the enthusiasm which this event excites, even among those who ex claimed most against the " propositions," I send you an article out of the Constitutennnelle Zeitiitig, which streams over with figurative expressions of joy : The royal message of the 31st January is an event the Importance of which is well understood by all true friends of constitutional freedom. It declares the revision of the constitution to be completed, accords the royal consent to the alteration effected by the Chambers, sad fixes the 6th of February for the solemn act of taking the 011ta which is to put the lett seal of confirmation unon the new compact between the crown and the people of Prussia. It is a joyful promise, destroying with its sunny raja the last clouds of car*, and which will bej responded to by a unanimous echo of joy from the Rhine to the Niemen, from the Riesen mountains to the Baltic. Viebahn's amendment to propositinn 7, concerning the finances, bas been adopted into the promulgated constitution. This amendment proposed that the First Chamber should accept the budget, or refuse it en bloc. The constitution having been at last settler!, the Er ' fort elections constitute the topic next iu interest. As I am anxious, at least in this one letter, to abstain from opposition to the ministry under which the strongest guarante,s have been given for the constitutional existence of Prussia ' I will forbear to dwell upon the tactics which h ave been used through out this kingdom in order to secure a strong govern mental majority at Erfurt. I only hope these tactics may not have contributed fuel to the revolution. 'Nearly everywhere the so-called c ,catitntional or Gngern party has been thrown out. I have not heard of its most illustrious members being elected for any borough. Gagers in Berlin had one vote. [By Electric Telegraph) BERLIN, FEB. 5. The Second Chamber has to-day adopted the first and second paragraphs of the law on impoi.te, substi tuting an income tax instead of the class taxes. Ten of the Polish deputies bare resigned, not wishing to take the oath to a constitution which they consider dangerous to their nationality. w FEB. 6, AT Noox. The solemn ceremony of taking the oath is just over. Before taking the oath the King read a discourse, in which, with great emotion, he alludrd to the events of recent oc_orrence. In speakicg of the constitution, he said that it had been much ameliorated by the co operation of the two chambers, and he tendered to those bodies his most cordial thanks for their good services. He also declared that he entertained for his present ministry feelings of gratitude which would only cease with his life. The ceremony commenced at half•past eleven ; the Upper Chamber has already taken the oath, and the members of the Second Chamber are now being sworn--Cukigne Gazette. BiILIN.

The official documents relative to the Greek ques tion have been published in Paris. They are marked A, B, C, &c. Letters A and B are merely demand ing and appointing interviews between the English minister and the Greek minister of foreign affairs. C is from the Greek minister to Mr. Wyse, dated ATHENS, 6th (17) Jan. The minister of foreign affairs of his Majesty the King of Greece regards it se a duty to protect to the British minister the grief and astonishment which his Majesty and his go vernment telt on learning the motive of tee continuance of the English squadron at Salamis. M. L9iHios has faithfully reported to his Majesty the interview which Mr. Wyse and Admiral Parker had had with him, and it is by the orders of his Majesty, deliberated on in council, that be makes the 'allowing observations and declarations :—The claims made by the British legation to the minister of foreign affairs are sin in number, one of which, that of M. Finlay, has been already arranged between him and the government. It would be easy for the minister to discuss the five others, and to show that his predecessors have made known the views of the king's government eoneernieg them; and it more over results from the conversatio. s which have taken plane on the subject between M. Glarakis, the last minister of foreign attain, and Mr. Wyse, that no d i sinclination was shown to the just settlement of these claims. lie will add, that the government of the king, having justsubmittell them to the oplaion of the law courts, they have given their opinion, that t►e law and right is on the side of the Greek government. But after the declaration, which has been made to the minister of his Hellenic Majesty, by the British minister, in presence of Admiral Parker, that there is no longer any question of discussing the justice or injustice of the claims, but to give a full and entire satisfaction of them ' in the eeort space of 24 hours, without the present cabinet, scarcely entered into office, having time to make themselves acquainted with the details, ne thought it his duty to atop. lie, in consequence, confines himself to saying that the king's government calls on the arbitration of the two other powers who signed the treaty of May 7, 1832, to terminate this pain ful discussion in an amicable manner, conformably to the justice and to the sentiments which have never oeased to inspire the relations of the government of the king with that of the Queen of Great Britain. M. Londos, in conclusion, thinks it his duty to inform Mr. Wyse. that a copy of the present note will be handed to the ministers of France and Russia, as the representatives of the two other protecting powers of Greece. D is a note of the Geeek minister to the French and Russian ministers, enclosing the above, and mak ing known to them the details of his interview with Mr. Wyse and Admiral Parker, and requesting their good °fame as arbitrators. Eis the note of Mr. Wyse to the Greek minister for foreign affairs.__ The undersigned minister of her Britannic Majesty to the King of Greece having employed every possible means to substantiate and procure the settlement of the wrongs and in juries inflicted in Greece on English and lonian subjects, there remains to him no other mammas than to make a formal demand, in the name of the government other Britannic Ma jesty, that reparation be made for thoae wrongs and injuries within the Ira of 24 hours, and that in that of time the different claims set forth in the note addressed to the Greek government on Dec. 6, 1848, and moos renewed by the un urs4ned in an urgent bat ineffectual manner, then be fally and entirely satisfied with interest, according to the usu a l rate of Gram, of 12 per mat, from the date of each And the undersigned would ill.consult the interests of the government of his Hellenic Milaty, it he abstained from adding that, if the formal demand whisk he now makes is not satisfied ia 24 hoar,, from the time this note is delivered into the hands of K. Conch, tho commander-in-chief of the English naval forces in the Mediterranean will have no other atonally' (however painfal this necessity may be to him) the. toast immediately on the orders of her Majesty's government. Tansies Wish. Athens, Jan. 17. F contains a formal protest addressed to Mr. Wyss by M. Londoe, and is merely a repetition of C, an nouncing that the Greek government had demanded the mediation of France and Russia. G is a letter addressed by M. London to the French and Russian ministers, announcing to them the sending of the pre. ceding note. His a note from the French minister to M. Loados, enclosing a copy of the following letter from him to the English minister, marked I, dated, FILEXCH LZOATION, ATHENS, Jan. 19. The undersigned, Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary of the French Republic, having bad commu nicated to him the note oddressed yesterday by Mr. Wyse, the British minister, to M. London, Greek minister of foreign affairs, and in which it is interdicted to Greek vessel, of war he pet to ses before the English flag, takes with et gret a step whisk heemaidereas pointed out by his du ice of represen- Meng of a power party to the treaty which constituted the kiegdom of Greece. The undersigned cannot conceal that in hi opinion, formed after due reflection, the interdiction made by the British minister, and supported by Admiral Parker, to the government of his Hellenic Majesty, to dis pose freely of his ships of war, must he considered as a first attack on the Independence of Greece. It cannot enter into the mind of the undersigned to contest in any way the right of the British minister to follow up the settlement of his claims against the government of his Hellenic Majesty, if that government refuses to give lawful satisfaction. But the present affair does not present itself in that point of view. The government of his Hellenic Majesty, called on to answer within 24 hours, and without discussion, demands which it considers doubtful, appeals to an arbitration which reserves all the rights, and is in conformity with the tenor and spirit of the above named treaty of 1824. That, in the opinion of the undersigned, is not a peremptory refusal, and should not therefore draw down on the government of his Hellecie Majesty the consequences which an aialutei denial to satisfy the :claims might have justified. The undersigned con sequently 'guiders it an imperative duty on him to beg the minister of her Britannic Majesty to well consider the re course which, under these urgent circumstances, has been had to the arbitration of the government of the French Republic, as authorising him to suspend, until he he has an answer from his government on this proposition, ail coercive measures which his note of the 1811 inspires a fear may be adopted by him in concert with Admiral Parker. M. Thou venal, feeling the strongest desire to efeeseionsly interpose his good offices for the settlement of an affair pending be tween two governments, triendsand allies ot the government of the French Republic, hopes that Mr. Wyse, appreciating the motives and the character of this communication, will give It his full attention. THOUVENEL. The document J is a letter from the Itussian mi nister to M.

Persian? to Mr. Wyse, dated 10th January. I have learned with as much surprise as regret, by the note which you handed yesterday to M. Louden, that the commander-0w chief of her Majesty's naval forces in the Mediterranean has forbidden all veuels of the Greek govern ment from leaving port. Such • measure, besides carrying attaint to the independence of the Heller is government an in dependence, guaranteed by the three powers who signed the treaty of May 7, 1832, might, on the eve of the elections, compromise public tranquillity, the maintenance of which interest. England as well as my august court. It is only with calm that it can be hoped to introduce into the late' nil ad ministration of the country those principles of order and economy which the powers who are guarantees of the loan have a right to require from Greece, in order that she may fulfil the engagements which she has contracted with the courts which have acted so kiudly towards her. I con sequently consider it my duty to call your attention to the regrettable consequences which the coercive measures re sorted to by Admiral Parker may b- attended wilt, what ever may be the infinitude of the Briti s h g overnmen t f or I the interests of its subjects in this country. The cabinet of Athens, having more than once manifested the desire to see the imperial legation interpose its good otli;:es with you, I should fail, monsieur, in my duty, did I not renew the offer, for the purpose of settling in an amicable manner the difference which flu arisen between two ciurts friendly to Russia. In the letters marked L and M, the Greek minister thanks MM. Thouvenel and Perriany for the support which they are kind enough to afford King o,ho's government.

Monsieur,—l have already had the hcnour of informing you of all that relates to the Otho, and outer state steamers in the Piraeus, and the protest whicti I addressed to the Eng lish minister against the incredible abuse of force which for some days has been operessieg Greece. I have now to in form you that English vessels of the squadron, under the orders of Sir NV. Parker, having proceeded to Piero ' and there seized the vessels of the menu, hare not hesitated to violate the sanitary regulations universally respected in the interest of public health and order. I have also this moment been informed by competent authorities that the English have this morning commenced preventing the trading-vessels which happen to be in the Pismo's, from lauding their cargoes with. out permission, enjoining them not to unlade, when allowed to do so, except on the coast opposite the custom-house; finally, they have forbidden every vessel, even of commerce, to enter the Piraeus or go out. I leave to your perspicacity and your sentiments of justice the manner of qualifying such acts. The world will look on all these acts of violence in their real light; it is, however, the duty of the king's go vernment to continue to protest against this iniquitous exer cise of force. Toe king, his government, and the whole nation, have the strongest hope in the noble and efficient support of the emperor and of the French republic; but, meanwhile, great interests are directly menaced ; public) works, the safety of the state, the administration of the country, are exposed to injury, in consequence of the forced interruption of communications ; it is therefore to avoid such disastrous consequences that Ihave t s request you, monsieur, in the name of the king's government, to be pleased to order the vessels of the emperor, or of the French republic, which are in the latitudes of Greece, to afford, if necessary, their support and co-operation to the Greek authorities, either for what concerns the safety of the stare or for the satisfaction of the urgent necessities of the administration and of the public service in general.
