The Meeting is now holding at the Rotunda. At at a quarter past 12 o'clock the Duke of Latuarzit took the Chair. The platform was thronged ; but at this hour not more than 350 persons, for the most part cif respectable appearance (principally Roman Catholics), were in the room, and red disappointment was in consequence manifested by the requisition its and their friends at the indifference thus manife,ted by the peoplel towards the champions of their rights. The Noble CHAIRMAN opened the business of the meeting in a few words . , and especially recommended brevity, as it was expeJient to limit the proceedings as much as possible. The Rev. E. G Roves read letters from several Noble men and "G•ntlemen. expressing their strong approval of the objects ft): ohiCh tie I:eeting b,cl been convened, and apologiziog for their absence, some on account of ill health, aid others on account of urgent business. The H n. R. KING moved the first Resolution, and expressed his ardent devotion "to the cause of his Catho lic countrymen, s hich it was the interest of every man who loved his county to advocate. He spoke at some length regarding the persecutions practised upon the Catholics for rnaliy ceirturii., to the disgrace and injury f the emp;re; and expressed his regret that when a prospect of a better state of things was about to appear, tbe impartial and upright Lord Anglesey sliDulJ be re c illedtiorn Admii.istration. -may be bad at the NORTH Lance of the Cousseux; at SIHIS .

He comes from an in terview with the three Plenipotentiaries at Palos, where they met to consider the best means of restoring.order to the devastating state of this province: All its build ings are in ruins—the misery of it defies the power of expression —it is really a luitny to have a barrack of planks, or a roof over your head, or any shelter what ever. MI the trees are burnt: in the Peloponnesus alone 600,000 olive trees, and 150,000 fig trees. All the, has been done by older of the Sultan, and this murderous order did ni4 merely extend to the trees which nourish the Mures, but to its entire population, with the exception of the male children under ten years o f age. who were to be circumcised. " 4 The object of the Turks in the Peloponnesus was evident: they wished to exile from that heroic soil the. descendants of the Spar tans,. and to substitute in their stead the hordes of Africa, who would never think of I shaking off the yoke of the Ottomans, and whose labours would fertilize it anew,-fur the benefit of the rulers of the Dospborus, " g The resolution of exterminating the Christian popu lation in Turkey, or to convert it to Mahomrtanism, is more credited than ever, and the Tusks will do their best to effect it Is those places where it is not reoderei impossible by their fear of the Cabinets of Europe, .or of Intel nal rev..lt. ;EN ES.

Du. 18. M. de Cani a, the Prussian Envoy Extraordinary, has joined with the Ministers of the neutral Powers to induce the Refs Effendi to have Turkish Commissioners sent to Poros to treat for the pacification of Greece. He had also induced another Ambassador to make the same ap plication. This attempt has been fruitless. The Reis Effendi hss referted to the answers which he had already made to Baton de Zuylen, the Ambassador of the Netherlands. It is observed, however, that the diplomatic body is treated with more regard in every respect than it ever was before; birt marks of favour and demonstrations of friendship are especially lavished on Mr. Offley, the N.irth American Consul, who is to conclude the treaty cif commerce • ith the Porte, from which it expects great advantages. It is thought in Pert that England may conceive some jealousy on this subject. We hear nothing fr •rn the theatre of war. The Sultan often holds a council in his camp at Ramis Tdrifl.k. The Porte maintains silence sespectiug the events in Vie Mores; but if the French should attempt to penetrate in'o Livadia, an irtimediate eeclar al ion of war will ensue. The Reis Effendi has pub:icly declared this. The conveyance ot provisions and coin to Constan tinople by lard is now pretty regularly organized. Letts ts trim Naples of the 23J of December say, that the Ambassadors of •the Three Allied Powers are no longer expected there. PAWS, JAN. 19.

Tills answers the report which has been circulated by the journals. (The Gazelle de Fraece, dated the 21st of January, contains no news whrever.) Paoli THR JOURNAL DU DEBARS. There was inserted some time ago in cm lain German journal, a story stating that the Sultan Mahmond, im placable its his resentments, had asked, " who would bring hilt' the ashes of the Peloponnesus?" A remark ablearticle on thus question ha appeared in the Augs burg Gazelle, horn which the following are extract, : •' Has the Sultan askisd for the athes of the Yelp ponnesus ? " We have been informed, that on sending Drama Ali at the head of a strong army inm Greece, the Grand Seignor ordered him to bring back the ashes of the Motea—that is, that he ordered him to esterminate with lire and sword, the country which was the birth place of the G r e e k revolution ; and that Drama Ali baying been cohquered, this barbaroui order was trans arit:ed to Mehemed Alt, Viceroy of Egypt, and to his son I , rahim. This injunction tingles in the hearts of the Greeks, as well as in the ears of the Turks, and the late in sssacrew in Crete are imputed to it. The Editor of the State Gaulle of Prussia observes, that the Sultan, who does not use metaphor, could not base used such an expression, and that the ashes of the Reloponnesus would by no means lib:Ll:miry him for 'lotion of the Karatschs (taxes).

Yesterday the Constituent Congress was to have met, according to the Treaty 44 Piquisa, as demanded by the Peruviamonstead of the Cemaitutional one that had been called together by the Government. It was the fault of a Deputy that this metting was prevented ; but it will be opened ti -morrow. Last night the Grand Marshal of Ayacucho arrived to present his Message, which the public expected with so much anxiety ; . 10.4t he sets out to-day for the sea port, and leases behind him a sealed dispatch to the President of Congrelr, containing the Message, and the terms of his resignation of the Presidency. General, Santa Cruz is the principal candidate for the Vice Pre.idency. The new Council of Ministers con s i.ts 01 General Velasco, as Secretary at War, to preside' thereat; of Doctor M2iiano Henrique Cairo, Secretary for the Home and Foreign Departments; and Manuel Molina, Minister of Fioance. • The Treaties offiquisa are published in the Nacional. a new Journal published by Paredes, a Spaniard, who' served as an Office; in the Petnvian army, and who had beets sent here asprivate secretary to Urdininea.— This. Paredes had been exiled from Colombia formerly, and probably wishes to revenge :himself by his writings. Tne same. Paper contaioi a note from Gen. Gamma to the Grand Marshal of Ayacucho, wherein he abuses his power and'situation to insult him. Gamarra is enraged that General Sucre has not only refused to receive any favour from him, but treats him like a Tartar, and manife.ts great contempt towards him. —He is guilty of a great falsehoJd in this note, by alleging the emigration of upwards of a hundred per -4 sons from the city on tLe approach of General Lopez, whilst we all know that there were but five or six,who, at, the time, carried off all the money the treasury urrntained. The National speak% of the entry rf the Provisional President as baying been attended with great rejuicings, whilst he was received with silence; and what is most singular, it says that the ti Arernment was in ti•e ha•.ds of a B %NIA it was so ever since the 18th of April, and that too in the bands of one who, by his must wretched management ut the campaign,subniittied to all the outrages that were committed against the Republic. the fifth Bulletin of the Palatial) army contains many I.es. A C lombiaii offict r said some time ago, with much propriety, that tie Peruvians are the Persians of America. Btimbasts, crosses, medals, and uniloims r are every thing with them. Thtry !rase not obtained a single victory in the war of independence, and criuld etfcct nothing; they %could be slaves to this day with. nut the efforts of the ether States to comp.l them to incoiporaie themse:ves ssith the American Repub:ics. They labour hard at the project I f re-u•)iiing BO livia to Peru; but the inhabitants resist it openly, .and vitt-at that they would rather be Argentine,. This opinion is becoming pretty general. General Save s wounds remain open. At part• ' ing he left, with a friend of his, copies of the notes he received from Ganiarra and Blanco, which, in' tact, contain much perfidy; as well as copies of the answers he sent by an Aide.de Camp. In one of them, where they had been insisting upon his recog nising their author ity, he says that, it he had, he shculd have recognised a gang of banditti. These notes are rurious ; and, if they were allowed to be published here, they would afford much satisfaction to the friends of General Sucre, who are men that enjoy some consi deration in Bolivia, and have a character to lose. Gamma has arrived, and to-morrow his troops make their entry; whilst the Bnlivians that were here were sent away yesterday, io order that the Congress ns.ty enjoy more liberty. Towards the end of November, a Sicilian sailor at Marseilles was followed by three women, who hooted him, and called him the hollow Mane. This appellation was sufficient to set the whole of the populace in an uproar, as a belief exists at Marseilles among the cre dulous, that an unknown individual, who is designated the honor( bianc. is a sworn enemy to female chastity. The poor Sicilian was soon surrounded by a mob, who handled him very roughly, and probably would have murdered hid. but for the interference of a police-officer, who, in rescuing him, received an ample share of kicks and blows. A few days since the three women were tried as the authors of the assault, and condemned to fifteen days imprisonment, with costs. The police officer, in giving his testimony. deposed to having re ceived axe fwd. dttealasirophes.—Paris Paper. The Resolution was seconded and tangled unanimously. Mr. JOHN DAVID LATk.OOllg rose amidst the most rapturous applause Isom all parts • f the assembly. He said that as a Iluguence—a humble descendant of the persecuted Hogue, is of France, who had been hos. pliably received by the Catholics of behind, he' came to that Meeting to advocate the extension of the rights of conscience to that persecuted, degraded, but loyal and warm-hearted portion of his fellow countrymen. It had been the maxim of the gieat King Witham, whes? principles • mete so grossly libelled by the in terested faction in this country, that conscience aas I Goo's province, and should not be impo ed upon by man—(Cheers). This was a principle which lie (Mr. Latnuci:e) should ever be attached to; and he would use every effort within his capability—every energy with *inch Heaven had gifted him—to rescue his Ca tholic countrymen from the ignominy in tallith unjust laws had placed them, and the British empire from the disgrace of being the single exception to the priNgress of intelligence and liberality in the civilized world— (Loud cheering). Mr. Lat swim conclat'ed by saying that the objects of t' , e friends of civil and reli g ious liberty new congregated,a err not to weaken the empite, or to raise an ascendancy for Any pa, ty, but to.establish religious peace, and to glee to all the people the rights which GOD and Nature Intended they should possess. Less than this they should not be satisfied wit's—and never would they cease until those right. were conceded. The Reverend Mr. M•Citsta rose to speak against the Reiolutionos hen there wre loud cries tf • Hear, bear," and " Doan, down." In the midst of the confusion, The !Me of LIIINSTER rose and said, that ibis was a Mc-ting of Viose Noblemen and Gentlemen alio had signed the Protestant Declaration, in reader to adopt Re solutions in the spit it of Oat D•claration. The Itevesend Mr. Nl•Cre:a again attempted to ob tain a.braring, when he %%as assailed by cries of "Turn him out." Sir T.
