We accidentally fell into a few trivial errors in the hurry of printing. and espe cially in swing that this account !cached to tile end of the war, in July, 1815; whereas the account termi nates in January, 1814, and this mistake, therefore, operates against England, as several captures were sub sequently made. We can afford, however, to give our continental friends the benefit of this error, as we be- Sere nothing in the history of the world can parallel the statement we thus exhibit of the achievements of our gallant Navy. We again beg to assure our Readers, that we place implicit reliance on the accuracy of this document, which we understand occupied the leisure time of our industrious Correspondent for many months.

Wboroof from I • 1 oi Do suoyed. 4 $ 44 3 '5 Zl, sad I by • Nothing, perhaps, has injured the Grekk cerise more' than the erroneous s t a t em ent s which la ave been from time to tune put forth respecting it. Even the •sUbir scription raised for its support has suffered by it ; for at one time the affairs of the Greeks were represented as so prosperous that they appeared not to need assist ance; and at another time we were told that they were threatened with such an overwhelming force, that any aid we could give seemed to be of little use. One good, however, will result from Loan COCHRANE going nut; and that is, we shall hear the truth. He will not tell of armies and armaments that never existed, of battles never fought, and of marches and counter-marches of troops that never quittted their encampment; but will Lord COCHRANE really go out, when, and with what force? are questions which naturally suggest themselves. Had he the Briesh Navy to select his Het frcm, these questions would be readily enough answered, for a few days would see him quitting our shores at the head of such a fleet as would sweep the Ottoman Navies from the ocean: but Lord COCHRANE has his force to create; the negociation for the purchase of some ships of the line from Sweden, has either failed, or, at least, seems doubtful ; and vessels not built for the purpose are not so readily converted into ships of war. Steam vessels are to compose a pan of the expedi. tion, and these are not built in a shoot time; besides, our steam-engine makers are so fully occupied, that they can scarcely execute the orders for which they have already contracted; and it is said, that few of the vessels offered for sale are fit for the purpose to which they are to be applied. However, we understand, that several vessels are in a state of preparation, and that Lord COCHRANE expects to commence his new crusade in the beginning of November, by which time, it is sup posed, his armament will reach its destination. No ex pedition, perhaps, ever united so may hearts and wishes in its favour, and all that consummate skill and intrepid daring can accomplish, will, we are sure, be sleeted. It is, however, to be feared, if the late reports from Greece are to be credited, that the Turks may gain the ascendancy in the Morea before Lord COCHRANE'S ex pedition reached its shorn. The French P.pers talk of new efforts on the part of The Porte, wh• is *unions to conclude the war this campaign. It is said that a new Beet will reinforce the Captain Pacha, and that the, Viceroy of EGYPT is preparing a new expedition ; in the meantime, the Greek Admirals, MIATILIS and SACH• ?OHRE. are forwarding with great activity, at Hydra and Spezzia, the reinforcements promised thew con. sisting of ships of war and fire-ships, and therefore seem determined to struggle to the last ; a resolution, which ihe knowledge of Lord COCHRANE being about to join them must strengthen: ihe contest, is an awful and an interesting one, and humanity calls loudly for its termination. The state of Spain becomes every day more critical, and it is impossible to say what turn affairs are likely to take. The French Journalists who gave an account of the anarchy that prevailed, now want to allay the alarm, and " start back e'en at the sounds themselves had made." It was stated that 300 Constitutionalists had been arrested at Seville, the number is now reduced to a daaen. It is not, however, the Constitutionalists that the Government has most to fear, but the Ultra Royalists, who have revived the old cry of the Kum being kept in captivity by his Ministers; there is really no pleasing these Gentry, when the Constitutional Government was in existence, then they caused an in surrection, for the avcwed purpose of rescuing him,- and now that he is surrounded by Ministers, chosen from among themselves, they still assert that he is held in captivity; and seduce the Strro's soldiers into a eon• spiracy to liberate him. The principal of this new in surrection is General Busman, wh3 secretly quitted Madrid on the 16th instant, to put himself at the head 'of some partisans. On the 17th, three companies of the Regiment of Santiago, stationed at Jetafe, took, with him, the direction of Brihuega, where he pre sented himself in the KING'S name, reviewed the volun teers, and probably not finding them sufficiently obe dient,took their arms and gave them to his own partisans. From thence he marched towards A rragnn, where he ex pected to meet with flit ads and to swell his numbers. The AtoPe says, that the three companies of regulars, whom he had deceived, and who fancied that they were marching in the King's service, under the orders of their Lieutenant-Colonel, had returned to their duty as soon as they were informed of the real state of the case. But this is mere than doubtful; or if they came back to their quarters, the partisan force under Bat mums must still be considerable ; otherwise two co lumns of 3000 men, infantry and cavalry, with four pieces of cannon, under the command of General Count D . F4PAGNE, would not have been sent it his pursuit. We have in the Journal des lisbals, a itveal Dvcre, fulminated against Beaman, front St. ildefonso, but a better means of quelling his sevoletibitare, attempts is said to be found in a force ti( three thoiread men sent against him.

The Emperor of RUSSIA has issued a Rescript to put down begging in his dominions. The following is an extract: ST. PETERSBURGH, AUGUST 2. On every tour made by the Emperor into the pro vinces of the humor of his vast empire, we see some abuses or irregularities corrected and remedied, which the negligence of the Governors had tithe:to tolerated. An Imderial Rescript has just now been published, ex , pressing hisMajesty'sdispleasure at the frequency of beg ging in the high roads, which his Majesty, on his return from his late journey to Poland, had observed in some Governments, particularly that rf Pskow, and giving orders to suppress this practice. " His Imperial Ma jesty," says this order, " observed with extreme regret, that the landowners, who are bound to Frovide for the subsistence of their vassals, probably give them selves but little tronSle about it ; and that the local authorities do not pay proper attention to it. It is above all unpardonable ) that not only cripples, but men in perfect health, and able to work, and even chil dren, are allowed to haunt the roads as beggars, and to ask alms of travellers. The Emperor therefore strictly enjoins the civil Governor of Pskow, and other civil authorities, in whose districts such abuses exist, I punctually to execute the following commands: " 1. To find out all crippled beggars and to deliver those belonging to land-owners to the letter, to be taken care of, as they are alone bound to provide for their support. Those belonging to the Crown are to be sent' to the Crown villages in like manner, to be provided for. "2. The Police is to take care that no crippled beg gars, and least of all men in health, who pretend to be such, leave their villages without permission, or beg in the high roads or other places. " S. The not providing for crippled beggars, the al lowing them to leave their villages, the wandering, about of healthy persons, pretending to he cripples, will render the local authorities, and especially the offi ceri of the country Police, liable to the r gour of the law."

SECRLTARY CANNING: AMBLESIDE, AUGUST M. Storrs, the elegant mansion of Mr. Bolton, on the Banks of Windermere, continues to be the centre of a. traction toa numerous and highly distinguished cirri ; of visitors. Beneath this hospitable roof Mr. Secretary Canning "has been for the last fortnight enjoying rt, tirement from the fatigues of office, in the society d some of his most congenial friends ; and the health d the Right Hon. Secretary appears to have already rt. ceived great improvement, from the pure and invigo. rating air of Westmorland. Scarcely a day has passed in which he has not been explains some of the beau ties of our scenery, either on horseback or by water; nor can anything exceed the enthusiasm which the kind and affable demeanour of the great Statesman excites among all ranks of our population. ?&. Bolton's party is to receive a splendid addition to-day, in the person of Sir Walter Scott, who has been traversing Wales and the Lake country, on his return from Ireland. The ce lebrated Barony arrived two days ago at Elleray, the summer residence of Professor Wilson, and, to-day; he and his party, it is undersood, remove from thence to Storrs. The party at Storrs includes, besides the illustrious persons already mentioned— Mrs. Canning, Lord and Lady Frederick Bentinck, Mr. Charles Ellie, M.P. his son, Captain Ellis, Professor and Mrs. Wilson, Mr. Denison, M.P. Miss Scott, of Abbotsford, Miss Murray. Min Stainfortb, Mr. Wordsworth, the Hon. William Harvey, Secre tary to Mr. Canning, Mr. Lockhart, Mr. Dell, of the Chancery Bar, Sir James and Lady Graham, Mr. Scarlett, &c. all of wham are expected to be on the lake to-morrow. The weather is delightful, and every Inn in this neighbourhood E. crowded with tourist•. MONDAY, AUGUST 22.—About noon today our lake began to exhibit symptoms of gaiety much surpassing anything that has been witnessed here during the lapse of many years. About thirty boats, sailing and towing, mustered in the Bay of Bowness, and the command being taken by Professor Wilson, they proceeded in a line to Storrs, where Mrs. Bolton, and her distinguished party, were ready to join the fleet in her splendid barge. The Secretary for Foreign Affairs was hailed by a nni• versal burst cf cheering, nor was the reception of the Great Northern Genius less enthusiastic. As the flotilla entered Bowness Bay, the church bells rang a• joyful peal, and the firing of cannon from shore and on the lake awoke the mountain echoes. Mr. Canning and Sir W. Scott sat opposite to each other in the barge, and the variety of evolutions performed by the flotilla gave op portunity to many hundred eager eyes to catch a glimpse of the illustrious strangers. The spectacle altogether , tvas.stibst beautiful, and possessed an indescribable charm over the feelings and imagination. In the course of an hour almost every boat on the lake had joined this unexpected regatta, and, on Mrs. Bolton's barge taking final farewell of the festivities, nine cheers were given in good nautical style, by the whole fleet. Mr. Canning remains for a fortnight longer at Storrs. COURT-MARTIAL ON MR. THOMAS GOBLE T PURSER OF HIS WAVY'S SHIP THE ANDROAGICHS. FOURTH DAY, AND SENTENCE. The Court met, pursuant to their adjournment, on Saturday morning, at ten o'clock, and were in delibe ration with dosed doors, till a quarter past four in the afternoon, when the Officer of the Court was directed to summon the prisoner to hear the sentence of the Court-Martial. The prisoner immediately attended, ac companied by Mr. Minchin, his solicitor, and in the custody of the Provost Marshal. As soon as silence was obtained, the JUDG2•ADVOCATE read the Sentence of the Court in nearly the following words : " Mr. Thomas Goble—At a Court-Martial held oo you, es 'mud his Majesty's yacht Maya! Sovereign, at Deptford, on Wednesday, the 24th August, and by adjouinment, on the 22th, the 26111, and the 27th of August, when there were present John Chambers White, Esq. Captain of his Majesty's yacht the Royal Charlotte, President, and senior Officer of his Majesty's ships and vessels in the river Thames; John Munday, Esq. C.D. and M.P. Captain of his Majesty's yacht Regent; Sir William Haste, Bart. K.C.B. Captain of his Majesty's yacht the Royal Sovereign; Sir Parks Sullivan, Captain of his Majesty's ship Galatea ; and John Couch, Esq. Captain of his Majesty's ship Perseus, pursuant to the orders of the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty ; and after being duly sworn, they proceeded to the trial of Mr. Thomas Goble, on the following bye charges (the Judge-Advocate here read the charges, which we gave at length in our Thursday's Jowly* aid having heard the evidence in support of those charges, and Ilbeigke what the prisoner had to advance in his defence ; and having ta r deliberated thereon, have come to the conclusion, that the brat, second, third, and fourth charges are fully proved, ut the Court is of opinion that the fifth is proved only in part, inasmuch u he charged Lieutenant Tait with the receipt of at 7 ls. ad. falsely, aod not vexatiously : and the Court therefore adjudge you, Mr. Tho mas Goble, to be dismissed his Majesty's service, and you are hereby dismissed accordingly." The Pannonse—Provost Marshal, discharge your prisoner.— Officer, clear the Court.—The Court then dissolved, at bait-pal; four o'clock. The Prince of Hasse HOMBURG took his have of the King and Queen of Nana's, on the 3d instant. Monday, a dark, short, and shabby genteel looking man, about thirty years of age, made an application to be admitted into :he Mayor of Windsor's presence, which request being granted, he presented a letter, the contents of which were as follow: " Sic it is your prlvitage as well as your duty spegely to eons ' munycate to his magesty the king the grate dupe of webeting to asisting the greeckes in their grate stnrgal wrist obi grarraierait of all Christianity the tuck..--Your humble serval* To the moyor of Wiasor." N heat WAIRIN." The Magistrate interrogated him, in order to discover whether his mind was not suffering under some delu sion, and found this to be the case. He stated that be wrote the letter in question at Colnbrook, that alarming, and another of the same purport addressed to his Mk• JESTY, .whicb he had taken to the Casde i bat not 6ading the KING there, bad sent it. through the Posvotfiu.-- The Magistrate seeing that he •was labouring ander a slight aberration of intellt ct, thought it rautuivisable to give him a trifle, and let him go to his parish. ..,. -'I bon A 4 SAM •Drair Thir 4o ei De ! hi& ta t N g pre It i to tt 01 c c 1 1 a 3 1 1 2 S S .5...; a I.
