ICtU ILER'S VEGETABLE TOOTH POWDER AV has so long been in general use, and an appendage to the fashionable Toilette. that it is almost unnecessary to offer any further recommendation of it. Composed of Vegetables, without the admixture of any mineral or pernicious ingredient whatever, it is free from the usual objection against the use of other Dentrifices. Its detersive power is just sufficient to annihilate those destructive particles which adhere to the Gums and the Interstices of the Teeth, healing injuries in the former, and promoting a new Enamel (where it has been injured or corroded) on the latter. It likewise Imparts a firmness and healthy redness to the Gums; and if regu. tarty used, will preserve the Teeth in a sound state to old age. Sold iu boxes at ito. 6d. by Messrs.

A Royal Decree of the 10th decides, ra that the city of Antwerp shall enjoy exemption from the duties on importation and re-exportation, by means of an entrepot, in the same manner as it was granted t'r the city of Amsterdam by the Royal Decree of the 9th of May last. 2.

AMERICA. New York Papers to the 20:h ult. have been received, bat there contents are unimportant. NEW YORK. Aug. 18. On the morning of the 15th the British bark Lady of the Lake, Captain Leitch. aimed at this port, under charge of the United State.' schooner Shark. From Capt. Leitch we learn that the Lady of the Lake sailed from Liverpool on the 15th June last, for Philadelphia. having on board 169 passengers, and her lower hold full of coal. and.crates of earthenware. The passengers hav ing imptuctently calculated on a short, or rather a fair average passat , laid in, as steerage pa.senger s generally ate found to supply themselves, a stock of provisions ac torlingly,which were exhausted about 20 days ago; and Capt. Leitch, in order to prevent stir vation, found it ne cessary to sea ye out the ship's stores among the pas. singers; the water, in addition, being very bad, was served out sparingly. Much discontent was, in conic. quenceof these things, manifested. particularly by the Irish pas tof the passengers, who threatened to take the Captain's life,- se that he deemed it prudent to carry arms for self preservation. On the day they Made Long ',land, a fine northerly wind carried them near Bar. negat, where they were becalmed. The passengers thea became more unruly than before, and at length took possession of tlie little water which remained, nor would they allow a drop, for- some time, for the use of the cabin, and demanded, moreover, that they should be landed immediately on the beach then in sight. Capt. Leitch ordered the anchor to be dropped, and attempted to semi his boat on shore for provisions and assistance, but it was found too leaky. The bark was soon after visited by some fishing smacks, who bargained to sup. ply tilt vessel with provisions and water, and also offered to convey the passengers to the shore. Captain Leitch having found it vain to endeavour to prevent their laud ing, threw no opposition in the way. While the fishing grassels were engaged in landing the passengers, the United S:ates' schooner Shark bore down and took pos session of the bark, and brought her into this port, not withstanding the destination of the vessel was Philadel phia, and the wind equally favourable for that port. We understand Captain Leitch has entered his protest against all the proceedings in the case, which has thus far prevented him from reaching his port of destination. • THE NEW AUSTRALIAN SETTLEMENT. -0.- We are this week enabled to present our Readers with some interesting particulars of the late exredition to Swan River. The early pan of the voyage from Hobart Town proved stormy and adverse, which obliged Captain Stirling to abandon the tender. The arrival of the ship on the western coast must, of course, have beet. *acceptable to all parties. affording a seasonaSle relief from mote than a month's continuance of boisterous winds. • The climate was there mild and serene. After some reseArch a good anchorage was found for the ship, when Capt. Stirling turned his attention to explore the in ter.or. He pen, tutted to the summit of the first chain of mountains, 50 miles from the sea. The country was found tO abound in natural attractions. Mr. Frazer, the botanist at Sydney, who accompanied the expedi lion, considered the soil remarkably rich. It was well watered with freali water streams and mineral wings. The natives, who appeared to differ in nothing born the other tribes of New Holland, were frequently met with, and though furnished with spears mete peaceable and friendly. They were surprised to see persons with white skins, and could scarcely believe that the colour was real. After a tour of ten days, the party returned to the vessel, and Captain Stirling resumed his stirley of the coast. An excellent and commodious harbour was dn. covered About six miles from the mouth of the river. In one part of the shore they found a romantic limestone (Id 700 feet high, the face of which presented spacious. and magnificent caverns, hung with stalactites, of the' purest and most beauti ful kind. From some of them flowed chalybeate and saline springs, nothing inferior in virtue to the most celebrated spas in England. The coast throughout was rich in mineral resources; among them were found ores of iron, lead, copper, zinc, silver, alabaster, and lime, specimens of which, we believe, have been brought to Sydney and analysed. Granite and other primitive roeics, affording excellent building stone, wete plentiful. For ourselves, we feel much gratified that England should thus explore and appropriate to itself the va rious resources of this wonderful country. Doubtless a spot like Swan River, affording au excellent harbour and plenty of fresh water, possessing a fertile soil, and enjoying, in the midst of enchanting scenery, a de. lightful climate, will speedily be occupied and co lonised. The Success landed on a small island a cow in call, two ewes, and a lamb and some goats. Several gardens in good situations were formed, and well stocked with seeds and plants. An English settlement may therefore be said to be already formed, and its at tractions being thl3 happily developed, we doubt not but it will speedily draw numbers to enjoy them.—Cape Colonist. GERMAN PAPERS. TRIESTE, Sam a. We hear from Corfu that Ibrahim Paella is asserts bling his troops in the Morea, and intends to take up a position in a fortified camp between Coron and Modon. That this assembling of tie Egyptian troops is for the purpose of coming to an under.tanding for the evacua tion of the Morea, on the approach of the French expe dition, seems rather a doubtful supposition, which our letters from Corfu call in question. They say, " Ibra him does not think of leaving the Morea; but is pre pared to make a vigorous resistance to any attempt to compel hint to it. The French will find him ready for battle, and their countrymen in toe Egyptian service will probably do their utmost to serve their own country." Ibtahitis i, said to have obtained, partly by force and partly by money, a considerable qua, tity of provisions, so as to have magazines in Coron sufficient to support the troops for six months, or who knows what may hap pen in six months? How easily may the French army itself be in difficulties about its subsistence in the bad season, which renders the communication by sea pie carious? In short it was believed at Corfu that Ibrahim would not leave the Morea unless compelled. Admiral Codrington was said to have gone to Aiesandria—no. body could guess the object en his voyage. English, Bench, and Rossini couriers are now at Ancona, ready to convey the dispatches from Corfu from their Goverment,: to this island.-31g. Zeit. Sept. 14. MONDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 22, 1828. mity with the Constitutional Charter, which was offered and granted by me to you, and accepted by himself and by you, and freely and solemnly sworn to. A disorganising faction laboured constantly In the midst of unhappy Portugal, under pretence of defending the throne and the altar, in disregard of all religious. civil, and political considerations ; it disputed the indu bitable and imprescriptible rights by which your Queen legally ascended the throne of her ancestors; it domi neered and lorded it over the Regent ; it ruled the kingdom ; it dissolved a Chamber of worthy Deputies, distinguished by their deserts and merits ; it did not immediately summon another, according to the sth Title. Ist chapter, 74th Atticle. and 4th paragraph of the Constitutional Charter, thereby manifestly usurping the Legislative Power; it appointed a Junta to issue fresh instructions (precepts or writs) for the election of Deputies, whom it called legal. 'The4 are not warranted; but. on the contrary, it destroyed the Constitutional Charter by a single blow, by calling together the ancient Cones, an institution already abolished by the oath to this very same Constitution; it praised and approved crimes committed against thus citizens who were faitlifol to their oaths. It consented to, and even authorised the troops, who ought to have watched over the public safety. to commit atrocities in the very capital itself, under pretence of defending the throne and the altar. How tar can misfortune carry in iutious and weak men ! Nor did it stop here—it lauded Poettiguese soldiers, when committing acts of insubor dination against their chiefs—against commanders faith ful to their oaths, resting on the two principal anchors, the throne and the altar What throne could consent to the committing of such crimes? What religion could enjoin the execution of such proceedings against de cency, and the decorum due to respectable and distin guished families? Oh, Portuguese I to what a pass is your unfortunate , country come, under the dominion of fanaticism, hypo crisy, and despotism I If it were possible, your ances tors would rise from their graves, and suddenly drop diem dead at seeing the cradle of their victories trans ferred into such horrors. You are worthy of a better rite: your happiness is in your own hands, as well 'es your ruin. Follow stsy ad vice, Portuguese; it is given to you by a philanthropic and truly constitutional heart. _ It is time that you should open your eyes, and all unite and stand by the oaths you have taken to the Constitutional Charter, and to the r ights of your Queen. By doing this you will not only save your couucty, but likewise my brother, by defending the true Throne and the free Roman Catholic and Apostolic Religion. Give, not the victory, oh Portuguese! to the enemies of Con• stitutional Monarchical Governments, who *kb to see perjurers placed upon thrones, in order to strengthen their argument. against such f Alb of Government;, tar be it from me to call my brother a perjurer or a traitor—he acts, no doubt, under compulsion ; and I consider, and shall consider him in that light, as long as the heads of the disorganising faction do not leave Por tugal. Portugue,e, stand by the Constitutional Char ter; it is not of foreign growth—it was granted in you by a Constitutional King ; and what evils has it breoght upon you? Liberty, i f which you had only a promise before. Yes, Portuguese, bedew the Tree of Liberty with your blood, and you will see how it will flourish amongst you, and bear fruits, in despite of all intrigues and machinations. Do not suffer your country to be assailed by the blows of perfidy and treason; that cour try which is already co-pressed by the yoke of the most ferocious description. You are a free people—yon form an independent nation; what more can you hope fir? The Governments of Europe support the legiti macy of your Queen. Fight for her, and for the Con. stitutional Charter, and fear nought in the shape of ob stacles. Consider that the cause you ate going to defend is the cause of justice, and that you are bound to it by an oath. Toe truth does not penetrate as far as into the presence of your Regent. Fanatics, hypocrites, demo. talked and despotic men, have blinded him. The immi nent danger in which his life is placed makes him submit to this faction, the like of which has never been seen amongst thePoituguese penple,which was ever free from the commencement of the monarchy, as the pages of its _ . history prove. Follow the example of those ancient Portuguese; approach your Regent ; speak to him very plainly and respectfully, as those spoke to the King Don Alfonso IV. and tell him, " By the road youl Highness suffers y'.urself to be led in, you will inevitably plunge )ourself into the deepest abyss; govern us conformably to the Constitutional Charter, which both your High ness and ourselves have sworn to, and know that this is the only legitimate course we choose to see adopted." If you do this, you will see, that he, finding the Portu gorse disposed to support him as Constitulional Regent, sill withdraw himself hom the shameful tutorage by which he is now ruled, and which would lead him to l the precipice, from whence he can never recede with honour; and that he will throw himself into your arm., and. by governing you according to law, make you happy. Come to his assistance, Portuguese! otherwise be and you will become the victims of anarchy. My cfinscience is free from rancour. I explained the truth to you; if you choose to follow it, you will be happy: if not, you will find the mist refined despotism raising um neck amongst you, which you will never be able to mush again.

The compulsion under which my brother the Infant Don Miguel, the Regan of the kingdom, labours, is. In every point of view, clear and atanifeit. To entertain a contrary opinion would be an offence against his honour, which I deem untainted ; it would amount to considering him a traitor to the assurances or prutesta• titles he made to me, whilst I was his King, and reputing him perjured in his oath, which he so freely and span taneously took at Vienna, in Austria, and ratified at Lisbon, before the nation legally represented in confer- FRENCH PAPERS. TROM Tlit GAZITTI Di FRANC; SEM 20. CONSTANTINOPLI4 Auauft U. The Grand Vizier has at length set out on the 20th from the camp at Daud Pacha for Adrianople, and it is stated that the Sultan himself will take the field as sr on as news is received that the enemy has passed the Balkan. If we may believe the Turkish bulletins, the , defence against the Russians has been as successful as can be desired. The Capi:an Pacha writes that on the 9th he completely defeated the Russians, wbo made an attack upon Varna. Ibrahim Pacha had surprised one of their convoys between Bazardjik and Jani Bazza, and captured it, after having massacred the escort; lastly, the corps of General Rudiger having attempted to advance fiom Eski Stamboul towards &humla to take Hussein Pacha in the rear, has been repulsed with considerable loss. The accounts from Silistria are equally favourable, and the Pacha of Widdin was pie paring an offensive operation against Little Wallachia. However exaggerated these reports may be, it seems at least certain that the Russians base sot succeeded in' [PRICE SRVIINIPENCS. obtaining the advantage over the Turks, since we learn that the Emperor his returned to OJessa, which seems strange. at a moment when we must expect decisive events. The Sultan, who ascribes all these successes to Hussein Pacha, has seat to hien one i f his WS:en to deliver to him a sabre of honour, and other valuable presents, accompanied by a very flattering autograph letter; at the same time he shows himself very mild, and recalls almost all those who have been banished.— He also recommends the atildest.treatmeat towards the prisooers. Many of the eziled Janissaries had returned soma days ago, and desired to take part in the campaign, but it was soon discovered that they had organ:zed a coo spiracy. The Sultan immediately gave orders to execute to. veral of them ; and this rigour baffled the plot. How. ever, great alarm was felt at the first moment, so that the departure of the Grand Vizier was delayed for some days. The Standard of the Prophet has hot yet been din. played. The affairs of Bosnia, which cannot bat be very dis agteeable to the Porte at this moment. bare iodated the Sultan to recall Abdouraman Pacha, and to appoint Elwin Vasid Pacha to succeed hith. JAASY.

A third expedition is said to be preparing at Toulon, which will probably sail bet veen tie 20th and 30th of this month.

It seems•that the appeatance, before Rio Jan;iro, of the Naval toice commanded by Rear-Admiral Poossen, excited a great sensation in that city. We are assured that this division made pieparatiotis for an attack, and M. de Mandeville was immediately landed for the par. pose of demanding a categorical answer on the subject of reparation for the injuries which French commerce has been suffering for a long time. It is said that the Council was immediately assembled, and that the Go. eel nment came to an instant determination of remora* . 411 the ves►els. together with their cargoes, captured in the La Plata. or indemnifying the pope ietors.

The Royal schooher La Mutine arrived this mousing from a cruise off Navarin, which she lett on the 27th .August, having touched at Corfu on her passage. Ba ron Taylor. who was returning from a j urney in Upper Egypt, comes passenger in this vessel. We havelearned positively that the two first divisions of the expedi , loa which sailed on the 17th and 20th of this month, ar rived in the Morea oa the 29t", and that the troops dis. embarked of Calamata. At that time Egypti4n vessels were expected at Nsvarin to carry home Ibr.him's troops, which were very soon to evacuate the Morea, The bomb vessel L'AdorEe is at this moment taking in provisions for the ships cruising before Tunis; she is to sail the beginning of neat week. The schooner La Torche left Toulon on the Bth, to go to Marseilles, for the purpose of conveying fifteen transports that have been recently taken up, and which would have been hese had it not been for the east winds that have pm wailed for several days. A great quantity of planks have been heaped up upon the quay to form the load. tug of several transports. The brig La Lampieie, which arrived this morning, brought a letter written on board the Echo corvette, cruising before Nevada, by a young sailor of Toulon, to his f.ther. The following is an extract : We had a mission as delicate as dangerous on our account at Nayarit'. The French and Russian Admirals had signed a capitols. tion guaranteeing a free passage to 3,000 Albanians in the service of Ibrahim Pacha, whom he had no longer means of feeding or paying, and who consequently wished to return home. The Admirals having al ranged their safe embarkation, decided that it should cake place at the bottom of the Golub of Lepanto, where Greek vessels should transport them from one side to the other, without going out of it, because one side was occupied by the Turks and the other by the Greeks. It was also de. cided that the Echo should watch over and protect this embarkation. The Admirals were net ignorant of the danger a a gulph, the very narrow entrance of which was guarded by two strong torts, and therefore the mission was kept a profound secret.
