" An Address to the Holders of Greek Bonds, and the Friends a the Grork cause generally," has been issued, under the avowed sanction of a body of Gentlemen who have taken a peculiar interest in the prog►ess of the Greek arms and the support of Greek independence. It begins by expressing prprise-that Eng lishmen have cooled is their sympathy towards the sufferings and in their ardour for the success of t►e Greeks, while the sympathy and the enthusiasm of the Wench have suffered no abatement.— We am far from thinking the ardour of the English has abated but the fact is, that the resources they have provided have been tot adequately employed, and there are many fabrfbations by das Greeks u well as by tbeTurks, that it is difficult to ascertain the st of affairs.—Another chugs in this Address is brought forward, with a similar laudable object of stimulating oar liberality, bp comparing it with the greater generosity of our neighbours. It in true that in France the sum of about 50,0001. has been collected Ii subscriptions for the Greeks—an amount about double the den& realized for the family of General Fars but what bas *Owl in the mean time ? Has not her money flowed to Gress► copiously ha the shape of loans, and are we not entitled in unnider these loans as charity, till we discover some better prospect et their being ultimately repaid! Most of the recent disasters of Greece have arisen from the want of military organisation ; and any arrangement for remedying this evil might not only give a favourable turn to the war, but ensure the ultimate triumph of the righteous cause.

The Journal of Antwerp announces, that the body of M: Estan celin,an actor, who was accidentally drowned while bathing in the Schelde, was found on the 4th, in the morning, and buried in the evening at half past seven o'clock. It would have been interred immediately, and hopes were entertained that it might have re ceived Christian burial; but the Priest of the parish would not venture to take upon himself to grant the rights of religion to a person belonging to a profession condemned by the Church. This circumstance, which always gives gccasion to a seandal generally injurious to morality and religion, is the more deplorable, as there can be no doubt that the deceased, who was a Catholic and a worthy man, would have required the aid of religion if he had had it in his power. However, his funeral was performed with great decency, with the intervention of the Magistrates, and attended by a great number of respectable inhabitants of the City. THE TEA DUTY. --.40.....- FROM Till TIMIZ. The Times asserts that tea duties to the amount of 700,0001. have been paid into the Exchequer this quar ter, which were not paid into the Exchequer in the cor responding quarter, 1825. The sum received on account of tea duties in the quarter ending July 5, 1825, was 880.0001, out of which 500,0001. was not paid into the Eichequer, being retained in the hands of the Receiver General to repay the wine duties. The sum received for tea duties in the quarter ending the sth of July, 1826, and paid into the Exchequer, has been 780,0001. There has, therefore, been a falling off of the tea duty from the fall in the prices. • But, to make a fair comparison between the quarters, we must gije the quarter ending the sth of July, 1846, credit for the 500 COOL detained in the hands of the Receiver General for the purpose of repaying the wine duties ; but, on the other hand, to institute the corn parison between the'quarters, we must deduct a sum -received in the quarter ending the sth of July, 1825, being the residue of port duties (transferred to Customs) which were received in that quarter, and for which there is, of course, no corresponding receipt in the , cptatter ending the sth of July 1826.

GOLD BANKS.—Mr. HUNT has announced his inten tion to establish banks through the county of Somerset for paying off all the country bankers 11. notes in so vereigns. At Wincanton, during the election, he ad dressed the freeholders, informing them of his project. He stated that he was determined to put the good in tentions of Mr. CA-NNINO into effect as soon as possible. That Gentleman had resolved, that within tW o years all the 1/. notes should be 'paid of, and as another run might affect the country bankers if somebody did not begin to pay them off at once, be (Mr. HUNT) would, with the blessing of Gm), endeavour to prevent such a consequence. The peat majority of pour people who took the country notes were afraid to demand gold fix them, in the apprehension that the preference would subject them to some disagreeable chastisement. HP would guard against this by having two doors to each of his banks, and the moment he should receive a bun dle of notes, the amount in sovereigns would imme diately handed over without danger of detection.— He had already taken a house in lilas.onbury, and had painted over the do.a " Gold Bank." 1t was opposite to the paper +ilk, the owt,er or which had been civil •ever sink , ani their tail:R.:urn would WWI COM:IMM NAVAL IN rELLIGENCE.

THE WEATHER. On the Ist of this month a dreadful thunder storm ravaged Chatelineau, in the province of Haitianit and the environs. It was accompanied by a tempestuous wind, with hail-stones, or rather large pieces of ice of eztraordrnary size, and torrents of rain, which caused the Sambre to overflow its banks, and inundate the plain to a great distance, carrying every thing before it: trees of the largest size were rent by the storm. It is impossible to estimate the damage don It seems. that several parts of the district of Charleroi have been laid waste in the same manner.—P. S.

BRADFORD, JULY 7. - - The conflagrations upon the Meer: still continue,—and without abundant rain they are not likely to be speedily extinguished. Large tracts of sheep walks have been entirely destroyed, and the hopes of those sportsmen who proposed to make the West Riding Moors their field of bate are annihilated. The fires have not only spread over a wide extent of surface, but burn to a great depth, con suming not only the moss, but the peat underneath. In some places, where they reach a soft substratum, they run to a great length mid r grand, and break out at the surface at other spots. The flames at I smoke together, present a most formidable and imposing appearance from any of the high grounds from which a view of th m can he taken.

On Ilkley Moor five hundrrd acres are burnt. There is no hope of any part of Bingley Moor being saved. Burley Moor is on fire, and is partly consumed. Thornton Moor is entirely destroyed, and with it alt the young plan tations, which cost upwards of 2,0001. in planting. Oaksworth Moor is entirely burnt. Ovendon Moor, Hohne Moss. Burnsall Fell, liebden and Grassington Moors, are on fire, and unless, as we have already said, incessant and heavy rain should speedily fail, every one of these must be entirely consumed. We have no doubt that lightning is the cause of the conflagrations. The vessels belonging to the Royal Yacht Club begin to assemble very fast.

It is said she cost 3,0001. Thursday night, as Mr. Sharp, chemist, stopped io his chariot at has door in Bishopsgate-street, five villains observed a box on the coach, with which they got clear off.
