GREECE AND 2'URKEY. FROM TILE MONITEUR OF FRIDAY, OCT. 22. NUREMBURG, OCT. 18. We have letters from Vienna which say, the accounts that are received from the frontier of Turkey are of such a nature as to make it probable that Constantino ple will soon be the theatre of important events. It seems that the party of the Janissaries, which is at the head of affairs since the deposition of the Grand Vizier Ghalib Pacha, has farther projects. Besides the Reis Effendi, whom the Sultan has been forced to send into exile, it was expected that several other persons, even among the chief Officers of the Seraglio, would be dismissed, several of them having personal enemies among the , chiefs of the Janissaries. Our Court expects with impatience the next regular courier from Pera, who will bring dispatches from Baron Ottenfels, the Imperial Internuncio, which will come down to the 24th or 25th of September. The last courier from Bucharest has brought to the . foreign office, letters which state that no change had yet taken place in the position of the Ottoman troops en the left bank of the Danube. Foreign emissaries have endeavoured to propagate a report at Jassy that the Russian troops in Bessarabia! would shortly make an irruption into Moldavia. The Hospodar has taken care to contradict this report. CORFU, SEPTEMBER '2 2 . The Lord High Commissioner, General Adam, who on the Rth of this month went to Napoli di Romania, on board the Sybille frigate, returned the day before yesterday. The object of his voyage was, according to the proclamation issued on the 6th, (see Austrian Ob. server of the 28th of September,) to obtain the revoca tion of the Gieek decree of the 27th of May, against the metshant ships of the European Powers. Admiral O'Neil commanded the British squadron which had entered the Archipelago on this occasion. The Go vernment at Napoli di Romania, on the first menacing representations of the Government of the lonian Islands, had published, on the 27th of August, a resolution which declared the decree of the 27th of May revoked, with regard to all neutral ships that had not Turkish troops on board. Admiral O'Neil, not satisfied with this resolution, demanded, on his aria al before Napoli, the unconditional and complete revocation of theoriginal decree. Hereupon, within a few hours, on the 341 (15th) of September, an.,ther resolution was taken, which, as there is at pi esent no printing-office at Napoli, was published and posted up in manuscript, and which, in short but precise and positive terms, revokes the de cree of the 27th of Mar.— Austrian Observer.

The purpo: t of this Note is said to be, that CHARLES X. demands of Spain " that a full and complete amniray be proclaimed, containing only a few nominal exceptions, applying to some of the rebels of the Isle of Leon : that the Spanish Government adopt; as of absolute necessity, forms capable of insuring the stability of the State and guaranteeing the happiness of the Spanish people :—that the Leans contracted by the Cortes be recognised : that the capi tulations concluded between French General; and those of the Constitutional At my be observed, and that in case it should be thought necessary to protract the military occupation of the country beyond the appointed period, (January Ist, 1825) the French troops be supported at the expense of Spain, and that the difference between the war pay and that of peace be also. liquidated by that country." If Coatusa X. has really sent such Note to FERDI- , NAND of Spain, he has displayed more political sagacity than marked the French councils when the joasion of the Peninsula was decided upon ; and if lit tacit: it by a threat of withdrawing his Army, we do not see whit the Spanish Government can cbi but comply with the terms, and thus become honest by compulsion. The following are extracts : FROM THE ETOILZ OF SUNHAT: PARIS, OCTOBER 23. The King heard Mass in the Chapel of the Castle. The 'Change will be shut on Monday next, being the day appointed for the inhumation of the late King. he Gazette of Augsburg, of the 18th, gives a letter from Trieste of the 6th, to the following effect : " Captain Andre Dramandopoulo, arrived here from Zante, in sixteen days, states that at the day of his de parture he spoke to Captain Cazzaro, who left Syra on the 17th, who saw an Egyptian corvette enter, which was taken by the Greeks in the battle of the 6th Sept. near Stanchio. The Egyptian flat, with all its transports, were at anchor in the toads ; when they saw the Greeks approaching the Egyptians formed their line; the ac tion was very obstinate, but it finished in the burning of five or six of the Egyptian men of war, and eighteen of their transports. The Greeks also took about thirty other transports. The fleet of the Captain Pacha was at anchor, doting the combat, in the Bay cf Boudroun, and remained quite inactive.

It seems certain that the visit to the Escurial Of all the Diplomatic Body, and several persons of in• fluence in the Capital, had another object than attending the King's levee, they still remain there, and arc occupied, it is said, in conversing upon the early as. sembly of a Council consisting of our Ministers, and the Charge d'Affaires of the principal Cabinets of Europe , for the discussion of Notes recently addressed to the Spanish Cabinet by that of the Tuileries. FROM TUE JOURNAL DES DEBATS. MADRID, OCTOBER n. (Private Correspondence.)—" There is a rumour here of an approaching Council, which is to be composed of our Ministers and the Charge d'Affaires of the p:incipal l Cabinets of Europe, in order to discuss the notes lately' addressed to our Cabinet by the Tuileries. - The follow ing is believed to be the contents of these notes, Spain. will be required to publi . Sh a full and entire amnesty, which is to contain but a few nominative exceptions, applicable to some bf the rebels of the Isle of Leon: she will also be called upon to adopt what is absolutely necessary, a form of Government capable of at once insuring the stability of the State, and guaranteeing the happiness of the people. She must recognise the loans contracted by the Cot tes, ratify and cause to be observed the capitidations concluded between the Generals of the French army and those of the Constitutional army, and, in case the occupation should be considered necessary beyond the term already fixed, the French troops are to be supported at the expense of Spain. They talk at the Escurial of creating an Aulic Coun cil, of which the Duke del Infantado is to be the Presi- dent. This Council is to be charged with the examina tion of the measures of the different Ministers, before being submitted to the K. " There is a rumour to-day of a new landing by the Constitutionalists on the coast of Marbella, but this news wants conti i m4tion." Dutch Papers to the 23.1, and Hamburgh Papers to the 19th, reached us this forenoon : TRIESTE, OCTOBER 9. A ship his arrived here to-d.iy, in nine days from Chesme. It brings a confirmation of the news of the destruction of the Egyptian fleet by the Greeks, and likewise that they have continued to pursue the remain ing part of the Turkish fleet; aiid on the 22J Septem. ber, buint off Patmos, several large ships, among which, as the Captain affirms, was the Capitan's ship. FRANKFORT, OCTOBER 17. The plan which has been long in agitation, to esta blish a bank in this city, seems now likely to be accom plished. It is affirmed that six of the principal bankers have agreed on some of the regulations. Our Government shews great strictness in promoting good morals. The public have severely criticised the prohibition of the women to appear at Church without black hoods, and veils of the same colour : but all good citizens have applauded the prohibition to celebrate masses after midnight in the Church of the Apostles, which were used to give occasion to many irregularities. BRUSSELS, OCTOBER 19. The English Minister, Lord Granville, who returned to this city from Paris, on Sunday last, went yesterday evening to the Hague, but is expected back this week, Two British Cabinet Messengers set out yesterday for London, with dispatches. COPENHAGEN, OCTOBER 12. Letters from Malaga, of September 11th, say, that the chief consignments of wine from that place are now made to Buenos Ayres, from which place many Danish ships are freighted. BERLdi, OCTOBER Hi. Yesterday being the birth-day of the Clown the whole of the Royal family met at the Palace of Parez. The King had the happiness to see, on this occasion, aN his children together, four Princes and three Princesses, his daughter-in-law, the Crown Prin cess, and his two sons-in-law, the Grand Duke Nicholas and the hereditary Grand Duke of Mecklenburg. We hate received Den — "Ta77 - ; Papers to the 30th August, from which we make the following extracts : FROM Tiill GUIANA CHRONICLL OF AUGUST 23. The Magas Logie of Plantation Success, East Coast, was totally consumed by fire on Saturday night last, to gether with the whole df its contents. A matter came on in the Criminal Court of Trinidad on the 27th ult. or peculiar interest, it being the first trial that bad taken place under the Order in Council of the 24th of June, the King plaiatift, and the Manager of La Puerta Estate, defendant, the Protector of Slaves Advocate for the Crown, and Mr. JACKSON for the de fendant. The crime alleged was for wounding a slave of the abovementioned estate, named Sebastian, btu Io contradictory was the negro evidence brouen forward in support of the charge, that not only was the defen dant acquitted, but the proceedings were ordered to be returned to his Honour the Judge of Criminal Inquiry, and the negro committed to be arraigned for perjury. THE KIAG. Wit:DIOR, OCTOBER 24This morning the KING, with his suite and the principal part of the Royal Household, attended Divine Service at Cumberland Lodge Chapel ; after which his MAJESTY took an airing► in the Gieat nuk. During the greater part of Ft iday his MAJESTY was ccupied with public business at the Royal Lodge, and did not take his usual drive on that day. Yesterday his MAJESTY left the Royal Lodge at half past two o'clock in his pony phaeton. The KING was fol lowed by two other phaetons, containing his MAJESTY'S suite, with attendants, in undress liveries. His MAJESTY drove through the plantations to Virginia Water, and teturned by Bishopsgate to the Royal Lodge, at five. Sir BENJAMIN BLOOMFIELD, our Ambassador at the Court of Sweden, has rettuned to Stockholm from Got tenburg, whither be had accompanied his son, who, being on his way to St. I'etersburgh by Way of:Stock holm, received orders from his Government to repair to Lisbon, to the English Legation in Poi toga]. His Excellency M. BOREEL and suite have arrived at Miyatt's Hostel, on dirk route to Lisbon, where his Excellency is appointed Ambassador from the Court of Holland. The Marquis of HERTFORD gave a grand dinner on Friday, to the Secretary of State for the Home Department, Mr. V. Fructuaco, Air. Secretary CAOKER, Mr. GRANT, Col. COOKE', Colonel A asisritoxo,&c._ _ _ The Honourable RICHARD LE POER TRENCH, son of the Earl of CLANCARTY ' and the Honourable llottaisa Powys, son of Lord Lirroßo, have been admitted of St. Jolin'sColl.Canibridge. Sir N. Courimust, Bart. M.P. has arrived in Colic. Arrived at Dublin, from Paiis, the Honourable AR THUR CAPE!, and Airs. RALPH S3IVTIIE, of Gaybrook, county of Westmeath. Two of the youths brought from Greece by Mr. BLAWITILRE are to be at Covent-Garden tc night, and Mr. JEREMY Homiest is to accompany them. ELLISTON has been for some time busily em ployed in collecting a company calculated to meet the critical taste of the Metropolis. Among the new engagements is a Gentleman of the name of Ilenronn, from the Dublin Theatre, who is to per form the character of Caspar, in the Opera of Der Freischutz, and sing all the original music attached to the part. Mrs. WEST has been induced to accede to the terms offered her, and resumes her station at Drury-lane Theatre. On the 27th Sia:ernber theta were great festivities at Christiania, to celebrate the two hundredth anniver sary of the foundation of that City. This morning, just before two o'clock, a dreadful fire broke out in the ssarehouse of Messrs. Tite and Smith. Rdssia mat and bag merchants, situated in Feuchurch•street. It raged with the greatest fury, and caught the livery-stables of Mr. Putney, 'in Northumberland-yard ; the premises, which are very extensive, are all destroyed, but the carriages and horses were saved. The fire was now at its height., and although a great number of engines arrived, they could not act, for want of water; it was, indeed, a full hour before they got any. As soon as it was obtained, the engines played with great effect, and arrested the progress of the flames, which had now communicated to the front of the house of Tire and Co. which, with two houses in Northumberland-yard, the livery-stables of Mr. Putney, and the backs of the houses of Messrs. Broxup, Bamfield, and Howard, were burnt and damaged before the flames were extinguished, which was not until nearly six o'clock. Three houses and the stables were burnt, and three or four more damaged. LITERARv PIRACY.—The injunction which we a few days ago noticed that it was the intention of Mt. GODWIN to apply for against FISHER, the bookseller, who has pi rated Caleb Williams, has been granted by the Master of the Rolls, and served upon Mr. FISHER. The Copyright Act, as it formerly stood, restored the property of a work to its author for his Hie (should he have sold it to a bookseller) after the lapse of 14 years. This Act was lately altered, and the term of years extended from 14 to 28. We believe the pre,etit injunction is the first one that has been claimed by and granted to an author, under this new Act. The novel of Caleb Williams was first published in 1794. The funeral service, which was to have been performed at Paris for the actor Phillipe, on the 20th of October, did not take place. It is a curious fact that, some time since, an Officer died in the same palish to which Phil lipe belonged, who expressed a wish, at his dying mo ment, that his body might not be brought to the Church of St. Laurent. His executor proposed, accordingly, to have the body brought to the church-yard ; but the ' , Clergy of the Church sent for the body of the deceased ; and, notwithstanding the resistance of his friends and, family, and notwithstanding even the circumstance of the deceased not requiring or receiving the last sacra ment, yet they persevered so far as to cause the body to be brought to the Church. When Louis XVIII. resided at Hartwell, the seat of the Duke of Buckingham, his Majesty frequently visited Berkhamstead, and dined at an inn there. The landlord's daughter, Miss Page, was particularly no ticed by the King for her amiable conduct, and on the King's return to France he invited Miss Page to visit Paris. A few months since she accepted the invitation, and was most graciously received by the Monarch. A suite of apartments were set apart for her in the Tuile ries, and the Chamberlain was directed to shew her what was worthy of attention in Paris. She frequently dined at the King's table, and was received and caressed by most of the Royal Family of France. On quitting the capital, the King presented her with 2001. which his Majesty begged shf would accept, as a token of his friendship, to pay her expenses.

DRURY-LANE THEATRE. This elegant Theatre opened for the season on Satur day evening, with the Opera of the May a loge of Figaro. The Howe has not undergcne any alteration in its in• terior during the recess, nor indeed was any necessary, as in point of elegance of decoration and convenience, it was complete. After our national anthem had been twice executed, for it was encored, the curtain drew up for the Opera, and presented us s itli a new debutante in the person of Miss CRADDON, in the character of &sauna. This Lady; who is from the Dublin Theatre, where she was a great favourite, is in figure somewhat petite, with intelligent and expressive features. Her voice, though not very powerful, is sweet; her intonations correct, and she . displayed considerable taste and judgment. Her de poi tment was easy and genteel, and in the lighter parts ,of the Opera she displayed considerable vivacity.— Her style of singing has evidently been formed with great care, and her science is considerable. She was most favourably received—was encored in almost every song—and cannot fail of proving a great acquisition to the vocal strength of this Theatre. The Countess Ai m a viva was personated by Miss POVEY, who sung very sweetly, and was encored in the Letter duet with Miss GRADDOW. HA RLEY was amu..ing in Figaro, and Miss Coarry was a vivacious Cherubino. A new Ballet was performed by the pupils of M . . Hum.ll4. Great talent was displayed by the children of all ages, in the various styles of serious and grotesque dancing ; and one little creature, apparently about five or six years old, convulsed the House with laughter by her attempts in a grand pas seul, and in a pas de deux, with an iafant still younger than herself. The House was well attended. HAYMARKEr THEATRE. Mr. HAMBLIN, who played some years ago at Drury- Lane Theatre in a style which gained him considerable reputation, and who has since distinguished himself in all the leading characters on the Dublin Stage, made his first appearance last night on these boards as the re presentative of Hamlet. His conception of the difficult character in which he appeared upon this occasion was exceedingly correct, and his performance throughout eminently successful. In the two first acts he seemed to labour under some want of self-possession and confi dence in his own powers; but as the Play advanced, what had been comparatively feeble became animated and energetic. The scene with his mother was the most prominent of his whole performance. Nothing could be more effective than the manner in which he harrowed up the remorseless feelings of his guilty parent. The scene too in which the Players are introduced to the Court of Denmark, is worthy of every commendation: The other characters were adequately supported.—Mr. DowTois's Grave-digger is well known, and needs no comment. The Oplselia of the night was Miss KILLY. Her transcendent abilities imparted to the character she sustained upon this occasion, all the interest it is capa ble of receiving. Mrs. GLOVER played the Queen, and with good effect. The Play was very well received. By a private letter from Sincapere, we learn that the lion. Company's Resident, Mr. CRAWFORD, has made a strong representation to the Bengal Government, on the propriety of seizing upon two provinces at the neck of the Malay peninsula, at present in the possession of tlie Burmese: and that these provinces may afterwards be retained by the British Government, or delivered over to their old masters, the Siamese, upon condition that they permit a free transit to British goods into that part of the country. Should this arrangement be followed up, it will put our Government in possession of one of the very finest harbours in all India, within not more than 150 miles of the capital of Siam, towards which there is an easy means of conveyance for nearly two thirds of the way, by a fine navigable river, and by this means the trade of Great Britain will be greatly ex tended in a part of the world ft . = which hitherto kills been virtually excluded. • ~~w ._ • `-.~ ~~ ~~~ went Mi WIIIS 9 Th Bend see w sort Offer raise who tucks Offer He 0 bad c intim appel bad rabic!
