THE GREEKS. FROM THE QUARTERLY REVIEW, NO. 51. It is evident that the first two books of the Iliad are addressed to a feeling which has predominated among the Greeks from the earliest per iods down to the present moment. In the first lines almost of that poem, which, though private taste may sometimes give the preference to other compositions, the general judgment must pro nounce to be the most wonderful effort of human intel lect, the Greeks appear to us more in the character of sailors than of soldiers. It is along the sea-shore that the Grecian army is drawn up; and it is by the sea side, and in the solemn act of purification by its t%aters, that the first movements of that army take place. It is by the side of the far•sounding sea that Chryses walks in the sadness of his heart, and addresses to Apollo that prayer which bt ings down the vengeance of Heaven. —lt is along the unfruitful sea that the Royal Heralds proceed to execute that message which occasions. the reader so much anxiety and suspense ; and it is from the bosom of the ocean's indefinite space, that Thetis rises like a mist, to soothe or dispel those sorrows which the sufferer's own position suggests were not to be re moved by the feebler abstractions of mete land. To Grecian ears, the catalogue of ships which crowds the second book of the Iliad would have been agreeable bad it been tv. ice its length. What the sea was to the old Greeks generally, it became to Athens in after times mote particularly ; and she had some of the same sea sons for her predilection. She was the freebooter of the olden time, though carrying on her piracy in a more civiliz?d manner. It was the element, beside., which just suited her character Calm or convulsed, in sun shine or in storm, it was the mirror in which she saw her variable character exhibited, and where she tasted those fierce extremes in which she so much delighted. On the sea she felt her own buoyancy cf spirit ; on the sea she nursed her spirit of commercial enterprise; on the sea she combatted, with most success, her noblest foe of ancient days; an.d the sea may yet find her an hour of vengeance, over that more ignoble Inc of modern days, who, after five, centuries of insult and oppression, remains still to her victim as the conquert,r of yesterday.

" FRANCIS CATUItLA, Colonel Commandant. " Murcia, Oct. 14, 1824." FROM TUE MONITIWR OF NOV. :D. . . . . CADIZ, OCTOBER 29. The declaration of war by the Regency of Algiers does much injury to the coMmerceof this city, from the prudential measures ordered by the Board ef Health. Vessels coming from the Antilles, instead of entering Cadiz were obliged to go and perform quarantine at Port Mahon, in Minorca. Now, that this qn,nantine is finished, we have three frigates, a brig, and a •cilooner, which cannot go out of it skithout tear of being cap tured by the Barba** corsairs: Some •tinve ago the merchants applied to Government fora sufficient force to protect them when they sailed, and to convey them hither, but it seem% that important matters have hot allowed it to attend to this; in consequence, the owners, underwtiters, and other per:,,ns interested in the catgoes of these ships, are going to meet, in order to take measures to obtain a convoy of some kind or other, which may relieve these vessels from the situation in which they now are placed. • PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE. " MADRID, NOVVIBER 8. 1 82 4. " The preparations for tire- departure of the Ft elicit Army continue•to be carried on with activity; it is tl e 21st of the present month that the head-quarters are to be removed from the capital. In the order of the (lay of yesterday, it was signified to the troops compositrg, the garrisons, that on the 15th instant they should re ceive a certain portion of their pay in advance. Not withstanding those signs of departure, there ate maky who still refuse to believe in the reality of the intention, and they add that a counter-resolution has already been adopted. Their reason for believing this is the bullan departure of the Commandeer-in•Chicf (who for the last fe•.x• days had been indisposed) for the Escurial, after receiving an extraordinary courier from Paris.. 'the preparatory measures for the trial of the Ex Nliniirtir Cruz have been confided, by a Royal oriier, to the Supreme Council of War, and the prisoner has been transferred to another and less. incommodious prison. —Orders have been sent to the provinces to ar cst all the Freemasons and Communeros, whose names have been found in the authentic registers, which the gotta appointed to that effect have got, or pretend to have got possession of. The Bishop of Cuerea has, in con sequence of an order and accompanying list sent to him, deprived of their benefices forty-four curates, and shut them up in a convent. At Avila thirty two per sons have been arrested for having belonged to sestet societies, and a similar system of incarceration is car lying on with activity all over the Peninsula. - At the village of Brea (Arragon), a search was made at the paternal mansion of General Ballasteros, and his brother strictly examined as to his posse sion of concealed arms. —lt is reported here, at present, that the 3000 men as sembled at Cot mina, and destined to compose the expe dition to the Island of Cuba, have desetted in great numbers. 1 have seen letters from that city confirma tory of this intelligence ; they state that, in con elience of a drunken dispute between two companies of be;diel s, some of the most turbulent were sent to prison ; upon which a great number of their comrades took to flight, and to prevent the remainder from following their ex- ample, the Captain-General of the province had or. dered them to be shut up in their barracks until fur. ther orders. There . is a report also of a popular tumult which has broken out at Badajos, but which the autho rities had succeeded in quelling. To-day, an unfortu nate sectarian belonging to a. neigboui ing village, was shot, having been condemned by the Military Executive Commission, as an accOmplice in the affair of Tar arcon." Letters from MAI id of the Bth instant state, that in consequence of the report received from the Royalist army in Peru, 'the Government has sent nut dispatches, re-appointing LA SERNA to the Vice Royalty, and es e,sing approbation of all the measures adopted by CANTSRAC and VALDEZ. LA SERNA has had conferred on him the title of " Duque tie Ins Andes." A letter from Cape Coast Castle, dated Sept. 6, says —" Our last engagement has completely broken the spirit of the Ashantees. It was a bloody affair, and the first time both parties had fairly joined battle since the fatal day of Asiamacan. Affatoo is the Waterloo of this part of the world. It has led to the retreat of the enemy, completely humbled and ashamed. As far as we can judge. there is no chance of their returning In a hostile manner." •~. , . fl ~~. (t!
