In a part of our impression yesterday, we stated that an Express had reached town, announcing the death Of the King of FRANCK; and, although the news appears to be somewhat premature, and his deceae had not been officially made known, yet such orders and decrees were issued, as :hewed that if not really dead, the event would soon occur. The Moniteur of Monday,contained orders from the Minister of the Interior that the Es change, the Theatres, and all places of amusement, should be closed till further orders; while the Medical Bulletin of the K twos health, of Sunday evening, stated that the fever had increased—the extremities become cold—the weakness increased, as well as the torpor—. and the pulse extremely feeble and irregular. We have this forenoon received the Etoile dated yes terday, but published on Monday evening. It does not state that the KIXO is dead; but as his MAJNATT had re. edited the Sacrament of the Eucharists and the eitreme, unction—rites of the Roman Catholic Church only ad-. ministered to persons on'the very , eve of depart's:errata' this world, thete is little doubt' but that he died in thi course of Monday: indeed, we understand private let ters of unquestionable authority state this to have been the ease. In another column we have given a biographical moir of Louts XVIII. Of his personal and political cha-, ratter it is not easy to judge, for he has often been pliced is situations of such extreme difficulty, that opi nion must be much divided as twills wisdom,of the po licy he has adopted. tin his iestoration, he had two parties, the most hostile to each other, if not to recon cile at least to appease—the new Military and the old . Noblesse—who were mutually jealous of each other. —The former, accustomed to scenes of warfare, could not all at once become quiet cititens ; besides, they were it: authority, and could not be expected to yield, without some reluctance, their situations to men they had been led to despise. The old Noblesse, on the other hand, had shared in the misfortunes of their Sovereir). and claimed, as a right, to participate. in his better for tune. ..To hold an equal balance between those partie s was no easy task; and it says much for Louts XVIII. that he has done to, and that, with the exception of the hunched days' marvellous enterprise of BONAPARTE, the reign of Louts XVIII. has been one of peace and prosperity to France. Levis XVIII. is succeeded by CnAntes PHILIPPE, Count d'Artois, who on the death of Louts XVII. took the title of Monsieur, he was born October 9, 1757, and married MARIA THERESA, sister of the King of SARDINIA, who died in 1805 ; his only surviving son is the Duke d'Awboucestt, who is now heir apparent to the French ThrOrat. The new King will bear the title of CHAaLes X.—he begins his reign at an auspicious period, and we trust it will be as tranquil as that of the last nine years of -his predecessor. - The following ate extracts from the Preach Papers : FROM THE ETOILE Or TRSTERDAT. PARIS. SEPTEMBER 13: . This 'morning the King received the Saint Viatique and the extreme unction ; he was perfectly sensible, and maintained 'his usual firmness of mind. About eight ciclork the Grand Almoner entered the chamber of the King, accompanied by the Bishop of: Hermopolig, first Almoner, and the Clergy of the Chapel. His, Royal Highness Monsieur, the Duke of Angou leme, Madame, and the Duchess of Berry, followed the Holy Sacrament, which the Clergy carried, with candles in their hands. After this ceremony Was ter minated, the Princes and Princesses of the Royal family went to hear Mass at the Chapel, after which they returned again to the King, and received, on their knees, his benediction. The King said to them, " Adieu my children, may GOD be with you." All the approaches to the Castle of the Turneries are filled with persons anxious for information of the King : the most profound anxiety is perceived in every one. To-day will commence, at the Chapel of the Palace, 'prayers to continue fOr 40 hours. FROM z eZTOILL. DATZD SUNDAY. The King did not giire an audience to-day. To-morrow, Monday, his Majesty will not give au• dience to either gentlemen or ladies. His Royal Highness Monsieur received the Ministe s and Grand Dignitaries - of the kingdom.

" The effect of this event is already produced : there is an assemblage about the Palace, and sonic movements of troops have been observed: meantime everything is perfectly calm. " Some persons pretend that the King is even now , dead, but this is conjecture, and cannot be announced as a truth." In another column we have given - some intelligence relating to Greece. The Moeitewr of Monday, which has reached us by Express, contains an article from; Constantinople, dated August 10, which states, that the fleet of the Captain Pacha is not destroyed, as the Greeks in. that capital represented, but that it was cruis ing between Mytilene and Samos, and preparing to strike a decisive blow against the latter island. Report stated; that the attack would be made between the 7th and 10th of August. All the forces, both by sea and land, were to be directed to this object, and the Porte appeared to calculate On complete success. It is again said, that the Egyptian fleet had arrived near Rhodes, The fleet, which is said to consist of 120 sail and 20,000 men, contains, as we are informed in this article, workmen of all sorts on board, as the Porte, in tends to transfer Egyptians into the Morea, and Greets into Egypt.; which, in emir opinion, will be a good way to lose both. The Porte, however, thinks otherwise, and predicts that at the end of the year the Peloponnesns will be wholly reduced. Lord STRANGTORD, whose de parture had been much talked of, bad an audience of the Rats EFFENDI/ 4 in the early part of August. ' We have received New York Papers to the 22d ult. being four days later than the last packet to Liverpool, They_ contain no additional news ft om Peru, but merely republish the circular from Trendllo, announcing the defection of OLasurrit from the Royal cause, which had been received at Guayaquil, as well as at Panama.

" Narou 111 Rexam, JULY " Lord Charles Murray and myself have just re turned from the Church of St. Giorgio, where we ac companied the Membe, s of the Executive, the whole of the Legislative - Body,,and an immense concourse of mi litary, citizens, &c. to hear Te Deum sung for the deli verance of !pure floes the Turks. This event was 1111.• nounced in a dispatch of the brave Miaotdis dated on ',lard his own ship, off Ipsara, on the 4th (16th), on the morning of which day he had attached and toured the whole of the Tut kith vessels left behind fotrthe purpose of carrying the plunder and prisoners. Ajaty of Greeks having landed, the. Turks took refuge in several houses of the town, where they acre closely invested, and not likely to holdout more than a few hours. With respect to the -Captain Pacha's squadron, it has sepa. rated, one half having gone to Smyrna, and the other to Mytilene. This arose fiom a (head of being mere easily overtaken by the Greek fleet, which continues to .itd:ze between Ipsara and Scio. In the attack which was made on the morning of the 16th, several transports and armed vessels were either taken or destroyed.-- Aliaouti describes the ardour and bravery of his men to have been above ail praise —indeed, all classes of the islanders only seem to be animated by one sentiment, that of revenge for the recent cruelties of the enemy. Now that the itifidell are driven . from the above important point, it is intended that the Ipsariots shall reoccupy the island, and erect a species of citadel which shall be capable of resisting every future attack. The very best consequences are expected to result from die successes of the fleet. Other ships are prepaiing, so that it is expected an additional trinliweement of fifty will sail in a few days. The whole will then be formed into two divisions, of which one is destined to watch the Captain Pacha, while the other proceeds off Ale:- endue, there to await the expedition projected by Ma hornet Ali. In all the latest accounts received here, it is reported, that although the Pacha of Egypt has col lected about 15,000 men and some transports, it is doubtful whether he intends carrying his threat into execution or hot. Upon the whole, Ido cot think that there is anything whatever to be apprehended from that quarter. You will receive a most spirited proclamation of the Provisional Government on the subject of foreigners allowing their vessels to be taken up as transports by the Infidel Chief. This has been received by the Consuls at Alexandria, and produced the desired effect. Although - the money has not yet arrived from Zama, we are sn hopes of seeing it very soon,. as all the necessary steps have been taken. " From the church I proceeded to the Legislative Body, also accompanied by Lord Charles, whets Tri coupe read a long paper of mine, stating the objects of my visit to Greece, and calling on them to take imme diate steps for raising the interest of the loan, dec. I was received in the most flattering manner, and pro- mised that immediate attention should be paid to all my propositions. A law will be passed forthwith, ernpovr ering.the Executive to send home produce for the pay ment of the interest; and I shall most probably sail in about ten days in a national vessel for the Thames. I hope to be the • bearer of highly important documents, which shall satisfy the creditors and all others interested in the march of the Greek cause. It is also intended that a part of the youths intended for education in England shall accompany me. I ant to present a let, ter to the Executive this _evening, containing divers proposals, to all of which I anticipate a moit favourable reply, having already sounded the parties ; but as I ask fir nothing but that .which is of easy execution, and for their own good. there is no reason to expect that diffi e aides will be thrown in the way.. " It was when 1 gave up all hope of hearing from you that your letter of the 15th June reached me, about four - days after my arrival here. I need not tell you hos; concerned we all were tc hear of the dreadful fall in the Loan ; the More so as we are at a loss to conceive to what_ it is to be attributed. Besides the arrangements with the Government, 1 ant comerting with the Can. diotes as to the best Imams of forwardins the needful there.

The tleriestest Pistdot of the 12th instant mentions thennival s t that port of • schooner, in Ave days, from Matanzas, the. Captain of vdtich stated, that the Spanish armed brig Matioero, with • crew I V so Iwo, from Calls for Havannah, fell In with the Colombian swiped sebooner General Padilla, on the Ist instant, off Salt 'Key Bulk, and both vessels espied for half an boor, when the Padilla hauled off, and lintnediately after the Spanish brig blew up. Th e Padilla's boats sectended in saving 31 of the Spanish brig's crew, which the sat into Matanzas on the gd instant, in a droger. By different conveyances we have received a mass of Colonial intelligence.--The two Houses of Legislature of Antigua met 'on the 15th of July, when numerous Resolutions were adopted by the A ssembly—" on the de pressed state of Agriculture--the apprehension of the injury from t'.e meisure in agitation of admitting into the British market'the sugars of the Mauritius on the same footing with those of his Majesty's Colonies in the West Indies, should it be carried into effect ; and that; under the pressure of such accumulated difficulties, the House feels itself called upon to announce its determi. nation, as one step towards the alleviation of the pub. lic burthea, , not to grant a larger salary than 0,000 currency to 'arty future CaptainiGeneral. It was also resolved, that the SPIAIIIR do, by the first °ppm tunity, transmit a copy of the said Resolution to the Colonial Agent, for the information of his Majesty's Government." • , The Borbadoes Globe, of the '26th of July, contains an 3tcount of the proceedings in the House of Assembly, relative to admitting a second Moravian Establishmen t in that Colony, on the petition , of the Rev. Mr. lisitc:. The Assembly was favourable to the petition, and a bill was introduced to carry the object prayed for. -It appears by the last accounts from St.-Vincent's, which . are to the 20th of July, that numerous cow.- plaints had been made of the unfriendly conduct of Admiral JACOB, Governor of Guadaloope, in causing British vessels to be detained, merely for passing within a certain limited distance from that island. Captain DIJKSCOMBi who commanded a small vessel from .lier muds, bound to Antigua, was taken by a French cutter, on the pretence that he was too near the land, though six miles off shots,. and claimed as a lawful prize; ot h er weals Were in the same situation. There is no doubt; however, but that when the Circumstances are made known to our !Admiral on that station, -Governor JAcoa will be taught to respect the mat itime rights of nations, The following letter, which ippears to have arisen from one of tho,e vexatious acts Of detente* appears in the St. Lucia Gazelle : u Sea—On account of the bad conduct of Mr. Leveque (Knsigt4 4 Vabsean), Captain of the King's schooner the Rose, stationed at Basseterre, GuadAoupe, we addressed to him the following letter : will you be pleased to insert it in your Journal, so that k may be come public.—.Wc have the honour, Ike.
