WRECK OF THE SHIP GEORGE CANNING. PORT LOUIS, MAURITIUS, Kuwait 11. The ship George Canning, Captain J. Clarke, sailed from Calcutta on the 20th of January-last, with a cargo consisting of 600 bags of rice.. and some bales of India calicoks, arrived at the Mauritius on the 6th of March, and for the want of a clean bill of health, was pat into quarantine at .the Pavilion. At six in the morning the weather was perhaps alarming to the inhabitants of the Colony, whom long experience had taught the signs which denote the approach' of a hurricane—the exces sive heat, which we had experienced the preceding days .the setting of the sun—the proximity of the last quatter af the moon—were for us sufficient notices to be on:our guard ; though the morning was far advanced before the ships in the road had commenced taking any precautions. It is doubtful whether on board the George Canning they had perceived the movements in the harbour, and it ought to be supposed, from the circumstance which we are going to relate, that Captain Clarke had no apprehension of the storm until it had burst. At three o'clock the George Canning began to drive. It was then impossible to set sail, on account of the. disorder and incensbrances on-the deck. The Captain ordered every preparation to be made, and the ship was ready to move at four o'clock precisely. Captain Clarke then directed the chain cable to be prepared for slipping, and the ship remained without driving until five o'clock. It then recommenced to drive, always to leeward, and the variations of the sound ings announced the near approach to land. At seven, .orders were given to slip the chain cable, and to hoist the mainsail; the wind, which bad changed suddenly, struck this sail with great violence on the side opposite to that of the direction in which it bad been set. It was, necessary to lower it for seven or eight minutes. During this time the ship was dragging rapidly towards the shore. The lead was hove, which gave no more than five fathoms, at the same time the ship touched forward, and received a violent shock; in one mintrte afterwards she struck a second time ; which unshipped her rudder.— , Orders were immediately given to cat away the masts, and the mizen-mast was cut away. Endeavours were then made to cut away the rigging of the main mast, but in doing this the batches broke, and it was impossible to go -on. The long boat was lowered,' and in doing thisit struck violently against a gua.whick made a hole in it, notwithstanding which the following persons embarked—the Captain, the second Officer, the master, the sail maker, the caipenter, four apprentices, and Mr. Wadd. The vessel then struck with so much violence that those who remained on board believed she would go to pieces. The darkness was so profound, and the ship in such a position, that. no one could quit his place without imminent danger. It was only at midnight that the Lieutenant, the tole Officer-remain ing, could join the cooper, and at one o'clock the first Other, who told him that the Captain had been obliged to return with his people astern of the vessel, At day break it -was observed that the poop of the vessel had entirely disappeared, and that only seventeen persons remained astern. The Lieutenant ordered a raft to Nyasa% upon which he got-ashore at eight o'clock in the morning, with all his people, with the exception of Lewis and Smith, seamen, who would not wait until the raft was completed, and who were already ashore when the Lieutenant arrived there. The persons saved are—Henry Lind, Lieutenant; William George. first officer; William Paul, carpenter; William SCAtlie. apprentice; John G. Baringwhite, Augustine Gonsaluus, John Vincent, Joachim Lewis,tominique, Manuel Marks, Mariano Gla nds, Peter Johnson, William Brown, William Smith, and William Gibbons, seamen; in all seventeen persons. Thom who have disappeared. in number 16, are—J. Clarke, -Captain ; W. Glow, second Met; the Surgeon (si hose name is net known); John Taylor, steward; William Hyper, carpenter; William Greendei, Grain's savant ; Samuel Na sh, seaman; Philip Cork, cook ; Pedro, Portuguese ; John Rodrigue, Portu guese Thomas Carter ,- seaman; Mr. Wadd, pannier ; Mr. lierth ; nd, passenger; Constance and his child, pastengen; and Shaikh, Lamar. servant to Mr. Wadd. There have been found up to the present time only five bodies, which'are those of Samuel Nash, Shaddi, Pedro, Cork, and the body of a young man, so much disfigured that it could not be recognised with cer. tainty. It is supposed to be that of Greendel or T. Carter.—Sydney Gazette. • IdEMORANDUM. OF THR LOSS OF THE MO CAItLTON, OF ST.

The St. Petersburgh Journal gives, in an Estraorii• nary Supplement. a Bulletin of the Rassian Amy in Asia. General Paskewitsch, reports to his Majesty as follows: ' 6 Being informed that a great number of inhabitants of the province of Kars, whom the Turks were taking away to Ardaghan, wished to return home, Colonel Prince Brkowicz Czerkasky was sent to deliver them. He had two battalions of Chasteurs, 200 Cossacks, 70 Armenian horsemen of Kais, and tour pieces of light aitille►y. Ac the distance of 15 wersts from Ardaghan 'he • learnt that the PACII4 of Mouschk, at the head of 4011 men. was driving towards Eizereum the inhahi , tentltio whose assistance our troops came, and he re sel*ed to attack the enemy. The Turks at first fell but by his skilful manoeuvres he compelled them to fight, and they were soon completely put to the route, leaving their killed and wounded on the field. Among the former was the son of the Pacha of Mouschk and sixteen superior officers. In general the eilemy'l loss was ♦err considerable. We had 92 men killed or missing, and 29 wounded. 64 The fortress of Ardaghasi surrendered voluntarily on the 9d of September to Major General Bergmann, who had gone from•Kars with a small detachment to take possession of that town, and to disperse the parties at the enemy that were flying from Achatizik toward; Er zereum." The same papers contain an order of the day, sd. dressed by General Paskewitsch to his troops, alter the storming of the tortreis of Achalzik, in which he b. stows the highest commendations on their valour. both in taking the fortress and is storming the enemy's camp. He says, “ that in 22 years service he has seen many brave armies, but none more brave or more patient under fatigues and privations." Various commercial advantages and privileg es have been granted by the Emperor to the fortress o Anapa, lately taken from the Turks. It may, perhaps, be in ferred from this, that Russia does not intend to restore that important fortress to the Turks.

The taking of Varna has caused the greatest oy bete, and confirmed the opinion of all those who knew the valour and perseverance of the Russian armies, that nothing can shake their firmness. Varna was never before taken, or a Turkish. High Admiral made fai -1 boner ; this first instance will not fail to have a moral influence on the Turks, which must be heightened by the generosity of the Emperor, who, according to letters from Odessa of the 15th, gave the Capitan Paths his liberty ; who, with SOO men, took the way to Idos.

PRIVATR CORIRSPONDENCI —The Russian have got possession of Varna by the treachery of Jassoff, the second in command in the fortress, who, with his troops. laid down his arms, after having conducted the Russians into the town in the night of the 10th of October. His stratagem; and proceedings discouraged his soldier; and the Capitan Pacha then found himself unable to' prolong tht-contest. At least this is the manner in Which the surrender of Varna is related here ; and the. more confidence is placed in it, as the Observer itself speaks of it in a very equivocal manner .t The Austrian Observer of the 26. h gives the Russian bulletin of the 11th of October. FLORENCR, Oct. 16. The disputes between Naples and Tripoli have as sumed a very serious character, and the Governmentof • Naples will have some difficulty in getting out of them with honour.

We de not undo stand the little success of the Russian arms, or what advantage the Emperor Nicholas thinks to derive from the blockade of the Dardanelles. This measure would be a serious injury to the inhabitants of Leghorn, and of all the ports of Italy. It is said that several com mercial houses desire to fit out privateers in the southern ports of Italy. and that they have applied (Willer pur pose to the Russian Minister at Naples. MROII THE JOURNAL DU COMMERCE, NOVA , * PARIS, Nov. 5. The evacuation of the Motes by the Turkish and Egyptian troops found in the fortresses is pt.( bably effected by this time. A vessel which has lately arrived at Marseilles brings word, that having put into Corms on the 10th of October, it saw five ships with Ottoman troops on board leave that port. It is affirmed ;bat a corps of Greek troops is being organised in the Morea, to consirt of 4,000 regular in fantry, two squadrons of cavalry, and six companies of artillery. The Duke de Mortemart, who left the Russian head quarters immediately after the taking of Varna, will shortly arrive at Paris. Count Neipperg, Grand Master of the Household to the Archduchess Maria Louisa, who was brought •to Turin in a very alarming state, was at the last extremity at the departure of the last post. Letters from Malts announced - that the Tripolitan Corsairs have taken seven Neapolitan prizes ; they have been put under seal by the English Consul, awl fin' the present confided to his care. The crews of four of the prises have been brought to Malta; on board a Mitch ship.

When the German Journals exaggerated the reverses of the Russian army, some persons, supposing—incor rectly, however—that there was a close connection be tween our expedition to the Morea and the Russian in: vasi , n, regretted those reverses, as if they exposed este danger. The capture of Varna must have dissipated these fears; but it is not useless to show that our expe dition, being independent of Russian invasion, we have' nothing to dd with the rever.es anti victories of the Russians. We have not landed in the blorea to assist the Russians, but to execute the Treaty of London, and the successes or reverses on the Danube will not alter our intervention in favour of Greece. Is it expected that Turkey will send her victorious Spahis into Greece? This is vain. The Spahis will remain where the wan is. and the Turks will cot leave the Balkan to recapture Patrss or Coron. After depreciating their forces% too Imuch, six months ago, we are how magnifying theist 'beyond measure. They will find enough to do to con• tend against the Russians, and they know they fight for their exit•tence. In the Minea they only contend to reduce a few revolted slaves to obedience. According toour EurOpean idea', we suppose that a revolted pro. ,vince must be immediately subdued. !tut in Turkey the revolt of a province gives no uneasiness. For a hundred years no Sultan has, perhaps, passed through a whole year in which full and entire obedie . pce has bees paid to his power. Some Pada, either in the East oe the West, bat always been in rebellion ; but the empire - has still existed. The insurrection in Greece has, ac. cordingly, never troubled the repose of the Seraglio.—. If the Sultan had wished to destroy Greece, it must now" be evident he could have done it. Reserving. his forces for the wars of empires with empires, he left to his Pachas this war against revolted slaves. He only roused himself to act against Itussia. She is the old enemy of the Musselmans—there is the danger. Russia seems to point to ancient superstitions which announce the downfall of the forkish power. We may cease to be Uneasy; the Grand Vizier is not disposed to leave Thrace for the Peloponessns. The Russian Emperor requires victories to give him the rights of seniority. The Russians are superstitious; the Counsellors of the Emperor fear what they may say, and to prevent unpleasant commentaries, victories are necessary. To restore the glory of Russia in the eyes of Europe, war is necessary. Should peace be talked of this winter, it will most assuredly not be concluded. except by the mediation of the European Power.. It will be a peace asadeat a Congress, and that would decide the fate of Greece. Peace or war, therefore, our expedition has nothing to tear; and the deliverance 'of Greece. provided for by the Treaty of London, is completed by the occupation of the Pelopoaessus by our soldiers, and is henceforward secured. If war contioses, ' France has time to conclude without obstacles the de liverance of Greece—if peace is made, she wilFstipolate in Treaties that deliverance she has solemnly-promised. She will fulfil the engagements.shebas entered info in. the face of the world. Again, we carry on a, war pf liberation. At this time, it i Teso.
