liimi"" - . .' THE EVENING SI'A :~. LONDON. SATURDAY, OCTOBER 9, 1824. ____Avourable. Half a company of work ea of the artillery left Bayonne on the 26th, for Cadiz. Two companies of the 7th regiment of artillery in garrison at Rennes, have left that city, and are expected here on the 4th of October. Each company consists of seventy men, including the subaltern officers. The most profound tranquillity prevails in all the • Provinces of the North of Spain. THE GREEKS AND THE TUR K S. An Officer of the Danish Navy, who consmands a divi sion of the Greek fleet, lately wrote to his family a very detaileJ letter, from which a public journal gives the fol lowing extract : " A person who is in such a situation as I am, to ) ex amine the -state of things in the very theatre of events, cannot but be profoundly afflicted, when he sees how little it would cost the Christian Powers to stop the effusion of Christian blood in the,e unhappy countries. --I am sure that two ships of the line and four fri gates, manned with European seamen, would destroy in a single battle, all the fleets of the Sultan. The Greeks with such means would triumph with equal ease, there is no doubt, over their barbarous enemies; but they have none but vessels that are too slight to bear the fire of the heavy artillery, however ill it may be directed. " The Turks are in all respes.ts the most detestable seamen in the universe. The ignorance of their Cap tains of vessels is such, that they are often seen to make their pilots responsible for the changes of the weather. These unfortunatemen, most of them Greeks, compelled to serve, are liableto be bastinadoed if a sudden change-of the wind forces the vessel to deviate ever so little from its course. The confusion which prevails in a day of battle is beyond description. These stupid Alussulmen, to whom some Journals of Germany, and even of Prance, generously attribute chivalrous qualities, derive ' all their courage in the sight of the enemy from an im moderate use of opium. " From the Captain to the meanest sailor, or artil leryman, they are all drunk, or rather infuriated. Pro vided they hear the cannon make a great noise, and see a thick smoke, they are persuaded that all goes on well. It is pretty touch the same by land. In truth, we may observe that out of twenty actions in a campaign, the Greeks will be conquerors in nineteen, though with in• ferior forces. It is only necessary to fight in very close order, and fire as nearly as possible. The bar barians will never make any impression on a well-exercised batta lion ; they will come to be slaughtered like brute beasts ; • that is their whole merit. Their cavalry, which is so highly spoken of, has never ventured to make a single serious charge. " It is beyond all doubt that negotiations have been several times entered into to obtain a squadron from the United States, in exchange for some Island in the Ar chicelago that might suit them. " The inexplicable manner in which the European Powers abandon these unfortunate Christians may lead to the conclusion of a treaty with an ambitious Re- • public in the new world, and the Cabinets will lament their fault when it is too late ; yet history holds out to them great and salutary lessuns.r—Freirch Paper.

Although the accounts of the Quarter's Ilevenue will not be made up until a late hour this evening, yet we are enabled, in some measure, to anticipate the returns, and feel much pleasure in announcing to the Public that they are highly favourable ; and strikingly exhibit the growing prosperity of this great country. In the Excise there is an increase of about 200,0001. on the Quarter. In the Customs, the returns are equally grati fying. The amount for the Quarter ending the 10th of October, 18'23, was 3,318,000/. and that of the Qunter ending this evening 3,21.3,000/. leaving a deficiency in the latter of 105,000/. The amount of Customs for the three Quarters ending the 10th of October, 1823, was 7,563,0001. and that for the Quarter ending to-day is 7,431,000/. leaving a defi ciency on the three Quarters of 129,0001. From these statements it will be seen that the defi ciency on the three Quarters oldie present year is about 130,0001.; but then it is to be recollected that upwards of 450,000/. out of the collection of the Year's Revenue has been repaid to merchants in remitted duties on the stock of raw and manufactured silk on hand; nor is this the only circumstance which causes a nominal de ficiency in the returns for the present Quarter, for duties have been repealed since July last to the amount of 20,000/. per week. If these sums are taken into account, the return; will stand thus— Account of Customs for Quatter ending 9th of October, 1824 - - - - £3,243,000 One-fourth of the Remitted Duties on Silk - 112,500 Duties repealed since July, at the Rate of £20,000 per Week, for Three Months - 260,000 Estimated Returns of the present Quarter, bad the Duties not been repealed .€3,615,500 Amount of the Quarter ending 10th Oet. 1823. 3,348,000 Increase on the present Quarter £267,500 Thus it will be seen, that had it not been for the repeal and remission of duties which came in the account last year, the increase in the Customs alone for the present Quarter, over the corresponding Quarter of last year, would have been upwards of 260,0001. or at the rate of a million a year increase in the Customs alone. On Monday we shall give the Official Returns at length, when we doubt not to find that the increase•of Revenue is principally on those ar tides the more exten sive use of which betokens the improving comforts of the people. Indeed, at no period of English history was the country more happy, more tranquil, of more flourishing, than it is at the present moment.— Abroad we are at peace with all the world, and our influence is often resorted to by Puxeri of the first order, in negociations of difficulty and importance, as in the case of Russia and Turkey. At home we find, that though our Commerce and Manufac tures are on the increase, there is such a super- abundance of capital that it is necessary to seek out new channels for its employment. Every Session , brings a repeal of tome taxes, and every day the National Debt becomes less, while the Revenue, as we have shewn, is constantly improving; if VC look around us, we then find that the spirit of im provement chews itself everywhere, and that Pub lic Works are establishing, calculated to employ the industrious, and raise the character of the country. —Such are a few of the blessings we enjoy under the mild sway of his MAJZBTY GEORGE THE FOURTH, and owe to the wisdom and policy of his Ministers. libm•i•iimmilAk THE DISCOVERY SHIPS. We feel much pleasure in stating that favourable in• telligence has been received of the Discovery Ships. They have passed through the middle ice with a good prospect of proceeding, as the weathgr, was fine, and the coast remarkably free from ice. This gratifying intel ligence is communicated in the following extract of a letter from the Agent to Lloyd . . at Huil, dated Oct, 7: The Mary Frances, Captain WILKINSON, has ar rived from Davis' Straits, and reports that she saw the Discovery Ships beset in the middle ice, on the 17th July, in latitude 70. 5. Captain WILKINSON entered the ice on the following day, in latitude 66. 20, and penetrated to the west land on the 26th, where he re mained until the 9th September, when he bore away for Enshild, having taken thirteen whales. Ile was nearly as high as Lancaster Sound, and states that the prospect for the Discovery Ships was very favourable, as the weather was fine, and the coast unusually free from ice. As he never met them after he got through the barrier of ice, there can be no doubt of their having had an equally favourable passage. The Mary Frances, and the William and Ann, were the only ships which got through the barrier in the month of July; the re mainder of the fishing vessels having attempted the passage in a higher latitude, did not succeed until August ; there had been no losses, but one of the ships (the Jane of this port), had sustained considerable damage." A few weeks ago we alluded to a notable project of the Ottoman Porte to put down the insurrection in Greece. It consists' in an interchange of the natives with the Arabs and Moors, who are to be brought to the Murea, while the Greeks are to be transplanted like cabbages to Egypt. We observed of the plan, that it was calculated to lose both countries to the GRAND Sctoxion, were not Greece lost to him already. A Sup plement to the Allgenteine billing cf the I st inst. con tains a curious article, which we subjoin, she xing that the plan is an old feature in Oriental policy. Neither the Allgemeiue Zeitung of Ist Oct. the nem fort German Journal ; the French Journal de Francfort, of 2d Oct. nor the Austrian Observer of 26th Sept.have any fresh intelligence from Greece. The following is- the article to which we have al luded : FROM TILE FRONTIEAS OF TURKEY, SEPT. 1. The plan of the Divan to people Greece with Arabs and Moors, and t. remove to Egypt all that remain of the Greek population, that is the women and children, (for the men would either not surrender or would be put to death) is entirely worthy of the ancient policy of despotism. Nobody had carried it to a higher degree of perfection than Darius, of whom Her odotus !elates half a dozen instances. Ile removed the inhabitants of Cyrenean 13acca to the egreme east of his empire, viz. to Bactria, (IV. 201.4 thu lonians to Pircenicia, and the Phoenicians to lonia (VI. 1), the Carians to Myletos (VI. 20), the Eretrians to Sousa (VI. 99). The ancient. Persians, therelorrs, transplanted nations like trees, and always to countries Vie most remote to their own Faithful to this principle of Asiatic human agriculture, the Turkish Emperor, Murad I. conqueror of Constan tinople and Greece, transplanted Asiatics to Europe, to Scopi, Philippopolis Zahara, &c. as may be read at length in Chalcocondylas ll.—Mahosnet IL conqueror of Constantinople, was a still greater master in this a'rt He brought tl:e nablest children of both sexes to Con stantinople, which was peopled with Caramanians, ll lyrians, &c. from no less than twelve conquered cities; but he was also no stranger to the grand idea of uniting Greek women with negroes, and vice versa; and this fact is so remarkable that we cannot withhold from our Readers the passage from Spandangino's valuable His tory of Me Mussulmen, which will throw some light on the policy of the Divan, and the historical learning of its European counsellors. He made with the Ceplialo. nians the following experiment to obtain a mixed race, at Constantinople: "Daps prop la maggior pate del terrazani (di Cefalonia) gli meno con le moglee, e Con figlioli a Constantinopoli. Quivi quinti ehe furono :klaoinetto, commando a quigli uomini the lasciando le priapic moglie pigliassero dome ((Ethiopia, parimente the le donne abandonnate mariti luro prendessero mori d'Ethiopia purl. Cio egli fete per aver di quella razza gli schiavi bigi cive di mosso colore et gli confine in hlarmora et quell'altre isole vicine." Thw, to have Mulatto slaves, the tyrant com pelled Greek women to unite with Negroes, and Greeks with Negresses; and for that purpose im prisoned them in Marmora and the other islands ly ing in sight of the capital. Perhaps some European agents, who visit in summer these beautiful islands, will acquaint the public, through the medium of the Jour nals, with the results of this new experiment. But as there is little doubt of the intentions of the Divan, we, only wish that the expedition of the Viceroy of Egypt may by some means or other be baffled in its object ! Frankfort Papers to the thi inst. have reached us. The following is an extract : !WEST, SEPTEMBER 29. The brigade of troops-of the Duchy of Nassau left us to-day, to return to the usual quarters. The military evolutions, which were favogred by the finest weather, attracted a vast concourse of spectators from the adja- cent country, especially from Frankfort. The fine ap pearance of the troops, and the admirable manner in %%hid) they performed their rrai.ce.rvres, afforded the highest gr atification to the spectators, and was honoured with the particular approbation of his Highness the Duke and his august BOW-STREET-(THIS DAY.) HOMILY ET A SCIAVAST...— Gene ETlWard Hatt was put to the liar,' charged with robbing his employer, Mr. J. Pitman, jeweller, of No. 577, Strand, of goods and money to a considerable amount. The prisoner was in the service of the prosecutor, and the greatest confi dence reposed in him until lately, when the prosecutor discovered the system the prisoner was carrying on. There were several dis tinct charges of fraud against him, hut Mr. Pitman confined himself to two, in support of which he adduced evidence sufficient to warrant the commitment of the prisoner. Three notorious characters, named Charles Jones, Alfred Gad win, and George Haines, were charged with picking the pocket of a Gen tleman, wko did nut appear, last night. near St. Clement's Church. Davis and •Iteed, the Officers, watched the prisoners for some time, until they made the attempt, but the Gentleman declined proteed •ing against them. Mr. HALLS said, be should take care that they should not have an opportunity of following their canine for sometime; and unless they could give a better account. than the one they now attempted, he should convict then), which was accordingly done.

The Rectory of St. Peter's, Cornhill, void by the death of the Rev. Mr. Roams, is in the gift of the Corporation of the City of London.

The Duke of SUSSEX left Holkham on Saturday, and proceeded to Colonel WILDMAN'S seat, Newstead Abbey,which was purchased a few years ago by the Colonel from Lord BYSON. The cause of his Royal Highness's so soon quitting the hospitable man sion of Holkham, was the melancholy decease of Lady SOPHIA MACDONALD which has thrown the whole of the families at Holt- 1 ham and Quidenham into the deepest distress. Lady SOPHIA was the eldest daughter of Lord ALBEMARLE, and bad not been mar ried above five years to Mr. MACDONALD, son to the late Lord Chief Baron, and M. I'. for Caine. Miss FOOTE, the lovely Actress, who a few days since was on the eve of being united to Mr. Ilkysies, a wealthy Com moner, residing in Wiltshire, is for the present disappointed of that happiness. The morning appointed for the happy event had ar rived—a sumptuous breakfast was provided by the father of the intended bride—the Clergyman was in wafting, and nothing but the presence of the Gentleman was wanting to consummate the cere mony. It appears that he bad come to town for the express pur pose, and had taken up his residence at Long's Hotel, in Bond street, to which place, after the appointed hour had elapsed, a mes senger was dispatched, when it was found that his friends, averse to the match, had locked him in his chamber. Under a similar confinement the messenger was immediately placed ; and a second messenger, who soon after arrived, ,hared the like fate. At length sonic of the Lady's friends went in quest of the lover, and reached Long's just at the moment he was stepping into his carriage, which conveyed him into the country. Thus has terminated the hopes of Mr. Foots and his beautiful daughter. The Great Musical Festival, at Newcastle, began on Tuesday last, sth instant, with eclat and splendour; the place was everywhere crowded.— Madame CATALAN' was in remarkably good voice, and she was encored in all the airs she sung ; Mrs. &mow, Miss Seernans, amid Mr. 1311411 AX sung uncommonly well, and were warmly applauded.

Mr. Graham has been I,ere for some days, in order to make an ascent in his balloon, but for some days all his exertions terminated in disappointment. On Tues day, the ascent was prevented by the unfavourable state of the weather. On Wednesday, the crier having an nounced that the balloon would ri:cend at three, a very large assemblage of persons soon collected on the adjoin ing bills and in the gardens, and carriages of every de scription were hurrying towards the grounds, and the windows of every contiguous house were crowded with Ladies. When we arrived at the platform, about three o'clock, we found every preparation rapidly proceeding. The weights that were previously attached to the netting were taken off, And men were pecmitting the balloon gradually to rise.. The balcony of the Saloon, the Sa loon itself, the Reading-room, and the ground inside the enclosure, were crowded with spectators. A band of music enlivened the scene, and cspectatiOn marked every countenance. At thirty-five minutes past three o'clock, the pilot balloon was sent up; it took a North westerly direction, and was hailed by the spectators as an earnest of the early ascension of Mr. Graham. The gay aspect of the scene was, however, soon changed ; it began to rain, and the wind freshened every minute: at ten minutes before four o'clock, Mr. Graham had nearly finiihed fastening the hoop of the car to the bal loon, and the car was placed on the platform. At this time the balloon was flapped violently with the wind, and many persons wished Mr. Graham to desist. Air. Graham, however, steadily pursued his employment, and appeared cool and collected, and to the last ex pressed his determination to ascend if it was the public wish. He , was standitg at the side of the platform, when some Gentlemeu asked him if he thought there was danger;? He replied, there certainly was, Then," said those around hiM, " 14 no means ventare—Gon forbid a man should risk his life for our amusement !" This was also the general wish of those assembled in the enclosure. Thus pressed, Mr. Graham consented to postpone his ascent to Thursday. It could have al= forded little gratification to the public if his ascent had taken place, the weather being hazy, and in every re spect unpleasant, so that the balloon would have been lost sight of in a few minutes. Ills morning, (Friday), the weather was still far from being fa vourable ; but printed circulars were distributed, announcing Mr. Graham's Intention positively to ascend at two o'clock. Notwith standing the previous'disappointments, the crowd collected outside " Ireland's Royal Gardens" was immense, though comparatively few persons paid for admission. Ai twenty - minutes after three, Mr. Graham and Mr. Ireland, of the Hanover Arms Inn, took their seats in the car; but the latter Gentleman beit.g found too heavy, be resigned his seat to Mr. Slee, jun. of the Globe Tavern, who is one of the light weights: At twenty-five minutes the balloon majestically ascended, amidst the acclamations of thousands of spectators, while the band of music played the National Anthem. The balloon ascended in a Northern direction for about five minutes; it then diverged to the South-east. At four o'clock it was out of sight. The aeronauts did nut proceed to any great distance, but descended about five miles from Brighton, at the Eastern extremity of the Earl of Chichester's Park. AR12413 ROBBERY.—About nine o'clock yesterday evening, P. Dare, Esq. of the Gas Company, was po sing through Goswell-street, when he was attacked by a gang of thieves, at the head of whom was a most no torious character, named John Vernon, who war con victed of a robbery some months since. Mr. Dare has occasion to pass this road on his way home, and the pre sent is no less than the third time he has been robbed. On the present occasion his watch, chain, seals, and key are gone. Merryman and Waddingtoo, the Offi cers, happened to be on the spot, and after a severe cha e succeeded in capturing Vernon, who was this day ela mined at Hatton-Garden Police Office, and committed.
