ON THE POLICY OF RUSSIA. .- - FROM THE CONSTITUTIONNEL. CONSTANTINOPLE, NOMMIII 17. The Turks pretend that it is theintention of the Em rotAlexander to form a third capital at Taganrog. • This project was formerly conceived by Joseph 11. in 010t1T of Heraclius, Prince of Georgia and Mingrelia, 4. cf. „!.;Ch he wished to form a power between Russia, I.,,k c e, and Persia. Alexander, who has already netted in Po;and a suffragan kingd )m, was also to re ttore the kingdom of Pontuc, and, surrounded by his Mothers, he inOtt re-establish the kingdom of Armenia bet ," restoring the Byzantine Empite: But for this, , hr s h ou ld ,he Czar of the North have dip 'ssessed a Queen *of Itnirete? Why has he mastered Georgia and lingrelia, and retained them, contrary so the neaty tit 1812? He is already master of nearly three kin of the Paulus Meotides, and placing a capital ieyolid the key of Europe, he would before long ex tend himself in Asia Minor, so as to leave the Sultan t iCnostaatinople only the title of Captain of the Porte. - - his was written anterior to the death of Alexander.] —his is what is said in the Divan, and this is the pre -6lninant idea, which inspires dread and precaution for • t!.e future, notwithstanding the notion 4 what is de treed must come to pass. What is Mr. Stratford fanning ro do here? We have .to congratulate him on the ob,raclei laid in the way of the Greeks in buying ships at Lr'ndon. Ile is thanked also for the oppositi , n made by Itossia to the vessels leaving the port of Swe wgich had been sold to an occult Power. He is slot complimented on account of Corfu being declared a free port, at which the Greeks can obtain all they sci.l). This measure is injurious to Trieste, and the ilustiian merchant vessels, which have rendered such r,,ential service to the Porte, to the detriment of honour ;id religion. The name of flee port, applied to Corfu, las scandalised all the Europeans, who are in general pod and loyal subjects of the Sultan. What are to be Cie objects of Mr. Canning's negotiations ? Will he y, as Provost Marshal for the Holy Alliance, that the insurrection of the Greeks ought to end in their exter mination, for the sake of example? This was his nr,rxiin fit 18C6, when he visited one of the capitals of Eihope, where he was full of eulogiums on the Sultan and hip Government. Tue AmbaLsado; will not now haJ the same language. FROM THE COURIER FRANCAIS' PARIS, D4cosseit 2,5. Diplomacy always chuckles when it can conceal or disguise the truth; for the last two years pains have been taken to deny the illness of the Emperor of Russia, and it has consequently been denied to the last mo lama. Now that the catastrophe has arrived, an an touncement was indispensable, but even now only vague indications ate thrown out: something is kept back by every one, and the result is a tissue of contra dictory pat agraphs from Paris, Vienna, and Berlin. It the illness of the Emperor had been made known from the first, if the state of his health had been made public at the period of his departure ler Taganrog, there would have ben no pubic surprise at the news of his decease; and the version hazarded by an English journal would never have been published ; franks ess and publicity would have superseded all underhand rumours; but then what has diplomacy to do either with frankness or publicity ? There is much talk about a letter written by a Peer of Fiance on a conversation which he had Jag summer with Constantin-, when that Prince was on the banks ef the Rhine. The Grand Duke received him with great cordiality, and assured him of the pleasure he always felt in meeting any one who had "distinguished himself in the French army. He then turned the sub ' ject to the law of indemnity for emigrants, a law which appeared to him strange and impolitic, adding, that if it was proper to afford assistance to those who were in need of it, it was vtry extraordinary that the nation was forced to pay enormous slims to those who are at present in possession of all the honours and dignities: the Prince added, that he was acquainted with NI. de Villale; and it appeared, from what he said, that he had no great idea of the frankness of his character, nor t f the extension of his views in politics.' This ii not the only letter that has been written on the subject of the new Ilsissian Emperor. One from the Prince of Met ternich, to a house with which he i s allied, is quoted. In this letter, she Austrian Minister announces • that he has received from the Emperor Constan li ,e, a most satisfactory declaration as to the in tentions of that Pririce: that he appears desirous follow th e politteal system of his brutt er, to maintain peace in Europe, and to abandon to theirla.e theGreeks,whom he looks upon as revolutionists. Prince Metternich concludes his letter by giving permission to the person to whom it is addressed, to snake what use of it he pleases. This circumstance has caused some doubts as to the facts mentioned in the letter in question : it is natural enough, when the Austrian system loses one of its most efficient supports, the promoter of that system should endeavour to make the world believe nothing will be changed in that system; the Go vet nment Journals hays told us that Constantine, when he heard ot the death oh his brothel, shut himself up in his Palace, where he re snained several days, refusing the homage ot his new subjects. It would be strange if the nine, had for , Kwtten this profound affliction, for the mere purpose of sending a profession of faith to Pt ince Metternich.

A few days ago, a Jury of resp-ctable tr idesmen of Lewes, were summoned to the White Hart, on a Writ of Inquiry. before Mr. Under Sheriff Palmer, for assessing damages in a cause in which Charlet, of Bognor, bu cher, was plaintiff, ani Turner, another butcher, residing very near him, was defendant. The words spoken, as stated in the recird, were, that the plaintiff "was off," and that" somebody was in his house," no doubt, meaning a bail ff, and by ati er words and insiutrations intimating that the plaintiff would be a bankrupt. To an action which had been brought, the defendant suffered judgment to go by de fault, and consequently admitted, that the words spoken, as recorded, were true. The Special Pleader had laid the damages at 10001. By the evidence, it appeared, that the transactions took place last Septem ber, and that the report having reached the ears of the Earl of Arran (then at Bognor), he came forward in the most noble manner, told the plaintiff he had heard the scandalous report that had been raised, and that he would, if necessary, assist him with from 51. to 5001. The plaintiff, .hoping such a step would not be neces sary, trusted to his own resources, until the week following, at Chichester ma: ket, he was told by the graz'ers, that un l ess there Was ready money there was no cattle to be had—it then became necessary to apply to the Noble Earl, who advanced sums of 501.701• and 1001. and a worthy man in the same line of busi ness with the plaintiff, also came forward, and offered most liberal assistance, to an extent of not less than 2001. or 3001. It ought also to be stated, that a farmer in the neighbourhood, inauenced by the report, sent for money for sheep that was not due, and a horse-dealer also demanded the sum of 401. which was raid by the neighbour before named. Indeed, by the evidence it was clear, that the plaintiff had a complete run against him. Mr. Adolphus was Counsel for the plaintiff, and addressed the Jury in 4 moderate speech. wit', on con. suiting together, retur tied a verdict of—Damages 3501. CORONER'S INQUEST. An Inquest was yesterJay held at the Peacock, Gray's Inn-lane, before T. STIRLING. Esq. Coroner, on the body of Morris Fitzgerald, who met his death by being stabbed in the body with a knife on Monday evening. It appeared from the witnesses, who very reluctantly tendered their evidence, and who consisted principally of the persons re•ident in the Court, viz. Bridget Ity, ley, Patrick Ayley, John Callaghan, Samuel Cab r, and several others, whose testimony did not bear materially on the fact, that on the above evening, the ,deceased had interfered between a man named Caen and his wife, when the latter stabbed him with a knife in the left breast, dividing the principal artery from the heart, which caused so great an internal hemorrhage as to cause his almost immediate dissolution. They had been h:ard to quarrel for some time, when Cahir, the watch man, attempted to get into the house, for the purpose of patting them, but was unable to effect his purpose, and on his return in about ten minutei, he found the unfortunate nun dead. Wain% right, the officer, produced the doilies of Caen, his wife, and daughter, and several knives, one of which was considereu the weapon with which the wood* had been ii.flicted. This, with a quantity of cow heel, off which the party was supposed to have supped, was thrown into the fi.e. the former alone being p►e served with a very small particle of bone. The stones in the alley had also been washed, and several removed, in consequence of having mwks of blood on them. The general feeling was much against the daughter of Caen, who seemed co give her evidence with great Caution. After some discussion, the Jury returned a verdict against Mrs. Caen and her daughter, for Wilful Murder. COIONER accordingly issued his warrant for detaining them at Hattun•gaaden Office. cnonterfeit sovereigns have appeared in alatming numbers, at Sheffield. We are sorry to say, that extreme distress continuej. to p:evail in Bradford and its neighbourhood, and which in fact continues to augment.

PLYMOUTH, DECEMBER 29. There has been little variety in the marine department since our last. During the latter part of last week, S. and S.W. were the prevailing winds, from whence we h.d light breezes, accompanied with rain and fog. At the beginning of the present, the wind shifted round to N. and N.N.E. in consequence of which several sail or outward borsod vessels left the port, and have no doubt cleared the channel, amongst which was the Doncaster, CHURCH, for New Sloth Wales, for which Colony she. embarked several emigrants from this port. The itavnaan tender, Lieut. W. MORRIS, came in on Frid ty from a cruise, having experienced very severe weather at sea during the late gales. The JAVA, 60, at this port, is ordered to be fitted for commission. The Tat.sov, S'S, lion. Captain F. SPENCIR, sailed on Saturday, for Sheerness. Ihe Birraaw tender, Lieut.

IN /Hi SOuNn.•— Druid. HR. BLAQUIERE, on the PRESENT SITUATION AND PROSPECTS OF GREECE. It is univers illy agreed that want of union, which by the bye, has been found to prevail in every country which has attempted to throw off a yoke like that which weighed down Greece, is the sole cause of the disasters of the fifth campaign. Now, by the concurrent testi mony of several distinguished individuals in the Morea, and all the late letters from the I nian Islands, thete can be no doubt hut that this grand desideratum has ta ken place, and that the leaders and the people have solemnly pledged themselves to each other, rather to die with arms in their hands, than again submit to the enemies of their faith ; for the heroic resolution of ti.e Missolonghians may be applied to the v hole Greek people. Indeed, it is a will•authenticated fact that till now, not a single Greek has subnsitted or erred to treat with 'lbrahim Pacha, notwithstanding the occupation of Tripolitza and the freejom with which the Egyptian invader is said to have traversed the Peloponnesus. With the foregoing facts Is: fore us, let us inquire what are the relative positi ins of the contending par ties? To begin with the followers of Nlshomet. They are in possession of Patras, Navarino, Modon, Coron, and Tripolizza, and have, perhaps, twenty thousand men, Tu:ks and Egyptians, in the Morea. The whole of their supt.lies must come from without, and it is totally impossible for them to undertake any operations in the open country, before the end of March. It is scarcely necessary to add, that they are surrounded on every side by difficulties and dangers of the most ap palling description. To oppose the above force, even supposing it to don- Isle what is here stated, there is a Greek population of a million of persons, of whom seventy thousand are in arms, and fighting for Vieir existence as well as for their wives and children. Besides the occupation of their inaccessible mountains, whence no force that the Porte or Mahomet Ali could muster, can d slodge them, the Greeks are in possession of Athens, Corinth, Napoli di Romani I, Malvasia, and Missolonghi, any one of which places may be easily defended by a handful of men, against the whole forces of the enemy, if they could even be united against it. After all that has been said on the subject, and the experience of five years, it is needless to dwell on the advantages which the Greeks possess, not only for attacking their enemies, but avoiding them if too climely pursued. Their early successes, and the heroic fortitude with which fstigues and privations of every kind were sustained, affird ail ample guarantee of what they are capable of suffering, rac.er than risk the inevitable destruction which would attend their submission. While such ate the motives of resistance and means of drfence in Constitutional Greece, those which the islands present are not less worthy. of attention.— In the Greek papula inn in these gems of the ocean, there is but one sentiment—that of the same hatred to the Turks, and desire to be free, which prevails throughout the Co. tinent. The nurnbtr of seamen are estimated at thirty thou sand, and of armed ships two bundled. Their achieve tnents are already known. But the grand point of interest among the Greek Islands, is Caniia. This terrestii.l paradise, rich in all the productions of nat tune, must share in the triumph of the Morea, Attica and Western G.eece. And when it is known, thlt out of the two hundred and fifty thousand Greeks, who inhabit this Island, there are abave 30,000 with arms in their hands, some idea may be formed of their hopes of success, schenever another favourable occasion present; itself. It should be observed, that the fortress of Grabusa . is s:ill in the hands of the Candiots, and that the Tut kish gartisnns have .never auemp:ed to pet;eaate it to the interior. Prince LitoroLD left town yesterday morning, on a visit to the Marquisul Saussuar, at Hatfield. At the fire at Mess' b. Course and Co.'s, on Wednesday night, in St. John-street. Cletkenwell, Mr. Fowler, of Gray's Inn-lane, rendered an important service, by venturing into the ptem;ses at the hazard of his life, and bringing out the remainder of a quantity of gunpowder, after some had been removed, which otherwise would have inevaahly exploded, and occasioned much mischief to the neighbourhood. Early on the in rning of the 23d instant, Messrs. M.Donell and Ito•lo, officers of .
