We give the following from Paris, under date of the 7th of September, as we receive it :—" In my letter, dated August 26, I informed you that the dispatches re ceived by the French Government, under the date of the atii of August, were of such n nature as exact great anx iety for the arrival of further intelligence,which it was con :•idered would be decisive of the Greek question, and p2rhaps even of the Russian question. I have now to infintm you that a courier reached the French Govern i:•:•nt last night, having left Constantinople on the 17th Aug. bringing the very important intelligence of the ccusent or the SULTAN to treat with the Russians ; of the departure of the Turkish Commissioners for the Rus- sian hoad-quarters, for the purpose of negociating for peace ; and of the consent of the Porte to the execution of the Treaty of Akerman—the only condition that the Russians had formally required. I understand, however, that the Porte in consenting to the execution of this Treaty insists upon some modifica tions, to which it is thought the Russians will ultimately consent; at any rate the SULTAN will make peace. As to the Greek question, the SULTAN accepts the Treaty of Gth July, as explained by the Protocol of the 22d March, with a reserve against the extension of the fron tiers to a line drawn from Arta to Volo. This is the only exception made, and I understand that the extension of the territory will not be pressed upon his Highness. The courier who brought this important intelligence, has also brought letters from Adrianople to the 20th of August. The Russian cavalry had appeared in sight of the town on the 19th of August—the terms of the capitulation were arranged in the evening, and on the 20th at noon the Russians took possession of the town. The greatest tranquility prevailed up to the closing of the dispatches, and the inhabitants seemed rather pleased than other wise at the arrival of the Russians, which I suppose is attributed to the excesses committed by the Asiatic troops, which were spoken of in the dispatches of the Bth, having rendered the approach of the Russians de sirable. In fine, the tenor of the dispatches is most pacific, and the French Ministers express their conviction that war is at length terminated." It is not necessary to say many words on the subject of the above letter, which speaks so eloquently for itself. We stated yesterday—though the intelligence was not then official—that no doubt could be enter tained of the fall of Adrianople, and we repeat to-day, what we said also yesterday, that there is no doubt of the complete subjugation of the Ottoman Empire altogether. There are, nevertheleass, in this letter, as well as in another communication on the same subject from the Gazette de France, which will be found in the next column, ominous glimpses of the perfidious and intriguing intelligence between our own Government and that of the Prince DE POLIG- N n c—indications of the direction in which the diplomatic cat is jumping—which hardly an ideot can misappre hend. It is said by this correspondent, that the Sultan accepts the Treaty of July 1827 together with the Protocol of March, as the basis of Grecian emancipation : but that he reserves one objection, namely—against the territorial extension from the Gulf of Arta to the Gulf of Volo. This extension of territory, adds our informant, will not be pressed upon his High ness. Indeed ! And this is a pretty fellow, to stickle and stipulate for the contraction of liberties already conquered, while he himself is at the feet of a triumphant conqueror. But what is most calcu• laced in this statement to rouse the indignation of all right-feeling persons, is the cold-blooded deli beracy—transparent through it—with which the Noble Duke and the Noble Earl are prepared to sacrifice the dearest principles of constitutional liberty to the demon of despotic ascendencies. Unless these insinuations shall turn out to be vile calumnies, and the assertions in the Morning Journal of to-day to be gratuitous false hoods, we trust the impeachment of this Ministry is not far remote. We cannot conclude without congratu lating the Morning Chronicle on the sagacity of his opening leader about Athianodt_ A powerful popular writer, in reference to the unani mity which is said to prevail on the subject of Parlia mentary Reform, has declared the satisfaction which he experiences, at witnessing this coalition of its ancient enemies. We ere inclined to be satisfied too ; but not by any means to repose indiscriminate confidence in all the professions which we hear, and conversions which we witness. On the contrary, we know that a very considerable accession to the ranks of the reformers has been the result of a particular disappointment, and that the political course of the parties thus gained as auxiliaries, does in no degree correspond with the purity of their newly adopted advoca cies. With such parties, nevertheless, it is neither our policy, nor our plan to split ; far from it, we wil keep side by side with them as far as they think proper to advance with us, in cordial co-operation : but the mo ment they deviate from the right line of road, we will hold on alone. To be sure it will appear odd, to see the Morning Journal—the organ of the Assecists in England—ranged in the same ranks with us, and for the attainment of the same objects. With us, however, the prosecution of these objects is natural; while with him, it has the air of a factious pretext, to enable him to embarrass a Government at which we are not less deeply offended than he is, but for causes widely differing. Those persons who make BLacxWOOD'S Magazine their mouthpiece, are also affecting to be numbered among the reformers ; and so long as they may promote the general cause—no matter by what motives actuated—we shall be very glad to avail ourselves of their collaborations. We have known angry people often blurt out truths, which afterwards they would gladly bite off their fingers to recal : Sed acnel emiuum volat itrevocabile verbum. " Never was there a more urgent occasion," we are quoting from Blackwood's llaiasine, " than at the present moment for a wise, patient, and thoroughly patriotic Legislature.—for a House of Commons comprising men of talent and integrity, possessing a sympathy with the people, and a devotion to the interests of their country, beyond all mean and short-sighted views of personal ad vantage. Do we possess such a House of Commons? Alas ! we fear not—the times are out of joint, and it is not without shame for our country that we look at an assembly of the representatives of the people. containing six hundred and fifty-eight Members, with so slender a display of that which constitutes greatness in a man. Where are the eloquence, the enthusiasm, the patriotic feeling? where the manly reasoning, and lofty comprehension, which have made the House of Commons illustrious? How wretched, cold, ' insipid, common-place, are their debates ! How much more like tea-table conversation, than the concussion of the intellects of the great men of England! Where are the men in the present House of Commons whose names will be familiar with unborn-genera tions? When those who figure there lie in their aanwieu and forgotten graves, who shall have beard of the speeches of Mr. Peel, or what student of his country's history shall perchance discover that a gentleman named Goulburn was a Minister of Great Britain in the year 1829 ? Nor is it the Treasury-bench alone that is conspicuous for duineu,—lf not for something worse ; of the six hundred and fifty-eight, there are not, besides the professional Members, twelve men who exhibit abilities such as would justify an observer in believing, that, in the pursuits of any liberal profes sion, they would have reached to even a moderate degree of eminence." This is a sentence, which—considered abstractedly, and without its context—would have been worthy to be published by R DG WA Y in the golden age of his political promulgations, when names like Fox and WHITBREAD, and SIIERIDAN and ROMILLY, gave an importance to each ephemeris of the hour, and stamped it as current coin with the people. But the cloven foot of our friend CH RISTOPH E R—netnpi impatiens qui tam dill delituerit —peeps out perceptibly, even at the very close of the period ; for, instead of finishing where we have finished for him, the sly intolerant brings his patriotsm to a climax thus : " And yet it is by such a House of Commons the in stitutions of our ancestors have been overset." By which the said CHRISTOPHER infers, that the penal statutes against the Roman Catholics, which were abolished in the last session, formed a part and parcel of our ancestral institutions But the writer in the Magazine does not require to be told by us, that institutions and enact ments are not synonymous ; the former of these terms implying permanency and stability, whereas the latter —without excluding these qualities—may be used, and often is, with equal propriety, to signify merely temporary provisions. No ; the removal of these disabilities, far from oversetting our ancestral institutions, will infuse into them a more pervading vigour, and consolidate them on a stabler foundation. These were not the ancient landmarks set up by abler men," which •it would be paricidal in their descendants to lop away; but they were the remnants of a political necessity gone into defeasance through the cessation of its cause, and of which the longer conservation consequently was become equally unwise and useless. But when our periodical talks, farther, of the " smirking audacity of shallow liberals," and trumpets forth the virtues of the " patron of the borough of New ark," the gist of his article in favour of Reform will not be misunderstood. The last news from Lisbon describes the old QUEEN to be dangerously ill. Her party is now completely direct ing the affairs of Portugal: LEITE, Conde de BA S TOS, is defying all his opponents, even including CA DA VAL.—The QUEEN'S partizans have proclaimed their superiority in Chaves, Elvas, Portalegre, Redondo, and other places, by giving vivas for the QUEEN RE GENT, and morras for Don MIGUEL, whom they style King of the Malhados.—Don MIGUEL had retired to Marra, as to a voluntary exile.—New arrests have taken place, and the Police is watching every one who dares mention any report respecting Terceira. The Wine Company at Oporto has been robbed to an immense amount : whether this will exercise any in fluence on its mercantile transactions time will show ; but a great anxiety prevails through all classes con nected with it.

Misled by his fatal blame, a body of furious madmen ventured, at Teheran, to csarolt an unheard-of crime, of which the Russian Legation became the victims. This deplorable event threw a veil of mourning and pro found sanction over the Royal house and its faithful subjects. Fetb-All's just and noble heart shuddered at the thought that a baud of wretches had with impious hands torn the bonds of peace and union, which he had just renewed with the great Sovereign of Russia. He chose me among the Princes of his house and com manded me to hasten, without loss of time, to the capital of your Empire, convinced that my voice, faithful to truth, would be beard with kindneu by your Imperial Majesty, and that my words might serve to maintain unimpaired the friendship which unites the two greatest and most powerful Sovereigns of the earth. " These are the wishes of what my august Sovereign has com manded me to be the organ. " Deign, most magnanimous Emperor, to devote to oblivion an event which has affiieted Persia no less than Russia Itself. May the world learn how, in the midst of an unparalleled crisis, the wisdom of two Sove reigns, and their reciprocal confidence, suc ceeded in averting all dangers, in dispelling all suspicion and un certainty, and in giving to the affair a result agreeable to the wishes of all parties. " As for myself, chosen for this mission on so remarkable an oc casion, I consider myself at the summit of happiness, in appearing before your Imperial Majesty, and, according to tie orders of my sovereign, in exerting all my efforts to consolidate constant union between two great nations, which Providence itself destines to maintain a reciprocal and unalterable friendship." The Vice-Chancellor, in his Majesty's name, replied as follows : " His Majesty the Emperor, my august Sovereign, commissions me to assure your Royal Highness, that he receives with the great est satisfaction the expressions of sorrow which you announce in the name of your sovereign. His generous heart could not but beat with horror at a crime committed with the wretched intention of renewing the difficulties between two neighbouring nations, but just reconciled with each other. The mission which he has just given you is a fresh proof of this truth. It dispels all the clouds with which so lamentable a catastrophe might threaten the relations between Russia and Persia. Your Royal Highness will convey these assurances to his Majesty the Shah. Yon win convince him of the decided will of his Imperial Majesty to maintain peace, and confirm the relations of friendship and good neighbourhood so happily restored by the treaty of Gurkruwitschi: " The Emperor commands me to add, that the Shah could not have made a choice more agreeable to him; than by giving this mission to your Highness. I hope you will find the confirmation of this assurance in the feeling which I here express to you in the name of my august Majesty. Letters from Tills of 30th July say, that the body of the late Russian Ambassador Gribojudow bad been brought to that city, and interred with all the honour due to his rank.—Hessolisogh Papers, Sept. S. FRANKFORT, San. 5. Accounts from Berlin say—" We hear nothing of any journey to be made by the King to Paris or to Brussels." BRUSSELS, Sen. 5. Two British Cabinet Meuengersfront London, passed through yesterday--ooe going to Vienna, the other to Constantinople. Brussels Papers, Sept. 9. —......_ From Vienna, of date the 29th August, we have the continuation of the Speech of the President of Greece. We trust to be enabled to give the conclusion of this weight• affair to-morrow : " Our hopes were realised by the generous co-operation of Admiral Codrington. This noble friend of the Greek cause ob. tamed at Alexandria the evacuation of the Peloponnesus by the Egyptian troops ; while the French expedition, by landing in the Peninsula, completed the work of its deliverance. The Mussui men, in fact, quitted the fortresses of Memo's and Aehala ; and as many of the inhabitants of those countries as bad been able to survive their severe sufferings, returned to the ruins and deserts of their beloved country—for such were left by the enemy, instead of the towns, the villages, and fertile, well cultivated Gelds which he occupied in his invasion. " Thanks to the presence of the French troops, to their ezer dons, and combats • thanks to the assistance which this army afforded in abundance wherever it was encamped. These pro vinces begin to recover themselves : the fortresses of Como, Modod, Navarin, and Patras arise, as a miracle, from their ruins, and are already in a good state of defence. " In November, the plague, which had again broke out is the province of Calavrita, threatened the Peninsula with a second catastrophe; but the French warriors, et the first summons of their illustrious Commander, left their quarters, and, under the command of General Higonet, forming, in the midst of many pri vations and dangers, a sanitary cordon, and giving to the unhappy sufferers provisions and clothing, they extirpated in a few days the seeds of the dreadful contagion. " The French army was in the Peloponnesus, the continental Greece expecting to see it pass the limits of the Morea, applied to us, and we hoped their expectation would be realised, because we were unacquainted with the Protocol of the 16th November,lB2B. which arranged the matter otherwise. " While this expedition was preparing to leave our country, which it had revived, we received fresh proofs of the liberality of Charles X. His Majesty grains us a permanent subsidy, the French army leaves garrisons in the fortresses of Idessenia, and gives us valuable materials for the organization and discipline of regular troops. '• But the . benefits of his Majesty the King of France did not end here : he gave his commands, and the unfortunate individuals, who had been carried as slaves to Egypt, received their liberty and their country. " A COMMISSICHI. consisting of Members of the French Insti tute, tad of artists, has been sent to explore the elastic land of Greece. Their researches will embrace the antiquities, geography, arts, and sciences, and our country will enjoy the fruits of their valuable exertions. " The representatives of the Allied Princes came in September to Poros and we were called upon to give them the necessary in formation on the questions which the Allied Powers were on the point of deciding, according to the Treaty of London. We ful filled this duty, constantly bearing in mind the instructions which the Assembly at Epidaurus bad given to its diplomatic Commis sion. and guiding ourselves by them as far as depended upon us. " His Majesty the Emperor of Russia. and afterwards his Ma jesty the King of Great Britain, likewise honoured Greece by sending their diplomatic agents to the seat of the G reek Government. " In autumn last year the conferences at London were renewed. The Protocol of 16th Nov. was signed, but was not officially com municated tolls. This however was not the case with the Protocol of 224 March this year. " AU the communications received by the Greek Government on these great and important interests will be laid before you, and I hope t►at you wiU approve the communications which we on our part have submitted to the justice of the Allied Sovereigns. You will see that we endeavoured to abide by the principles which guided the National Assembly at Epidaurus, without neglecting those which are a necessary consequence of the situation of Greece itself, and in relation to the Allied Powers sod the Ottoman Porte. The Convention of 6th July speaks positively Ind expressly of this situation, hence the object of the present negociations is finally to determine it. " We consider it unnecessary to speak to you of the causes which have rendered impossible the complete execution of the laws decreed by the National Assemblies of Epidaurus, Arco., and Tinzens. We think also that the same causes will con tinue till (Adel Conventions shall have determined the extent of Greece, and the relations of its Government to the Allied Powers and to the Ottoman Porte. Till this is done, we can, I think, regulate our internal affairs only provisionally secure, by just and rigorous measures, the rights winch the citizens have purchased with their blood. and carefully revise our fundamental laws, profiting by the lessons of experience. These considerations have dictated all the provisional regulations issued by the present Government. The Seminary of St.te will give them all to you if you desire it. " The judicial part of the administration has scarcely began vi be organised ; and, after surmounting numerous difficulties, we have Milled, as well as we were able, the wishes which the provinces have repeatedly expressed. They already chew their gratitude in a manner which does honour to the character of the Greeks. A great number of law suits have been decided to the entire sadder Hon of both parties, without the tribunals being obliged to inter fere. not among these cases there are some which require pant cola arrangements. We have issued a repletion respedbut old debts, sod there are others which you may this! volt seemeary. " The Church has suffered much by the len Amuse et the nations. It was our duty to obtain, first of all, an ammo soden of its present state. For this purpose the Emiselassied Cenembelon was esabffebed, whose reports use evert.

" The army and the navy have already done their duty, so that the nation owes the same proofs of gratitude to both for their exertions in favour of the provinces of the State which the Turks have again made themselves masters of, taking advantage of thr general embarrassment. '• These provinces are now under the shadow of the Cross. Drente Patmomsca and humanity of the Allied Princes will cer tainly not forsake them, so as to let them relapse into their long sufferings."

The French Papers of this morning state the taking of Adria nople, but they add some other particulars which have ne truth whatever. The official dispatches received from Contantinople, dated the 17th, do not fay one word of the 8,000 brigands who, according to the (Wrier Franfais and the Constitsitioand were pil laging the Turkish capital, and spreading in it terror and confusion. No fear is expressed for the life of the Sultan. It is not true that the Russians have taken Trebisond. The dispatches of the 17th state that the Russians had attacked that place, and had been repulsed. The Chnstitutioassel. in announcing the taking of Adrianople, says—" The whole population of the country submits. No one knew where She &Nan was. Constantinople was delivered up to 8,000 brigands, composed of deserters and ex-Janissaries, who gave themselves up to every excess. Treblsond, whatever the Quotidian's may say, has opened its gates to the Russians, who have found there an immense booty. The population of Adrianople has dis armed some of the Asiatic troops, who threatened to pillage the town. This news has thrown our Austro-English Ministry into mnsternation." There is not a single word of truth in this paragraph, except the disarming of some of the Asiatics at Adrianople. As to the asser tion that the news brought by the courier have thrown the Ministry into consternation, it is notoriously false. I informed you by my letter forwarded yesterday by an extraordinary express, the French Ministry consider the war in the East as terminated, not by the taking of Adrianople, but by the determination of the Sultan to make peace, and that is precisely what the French Government desires. CITY, Twn.vs o'CLocc. Although there can be no doubt at present of the taking of Adria nople by the Russians, received by the Express from Paris this morning, still it has bad not the least effect on the Coosol Market, which opened at the same price it left of yesterday, 89& to h for the Account ; and 881 89 for money. At present there is not a feature in the Market worth observation. The Foreign Market is in the same lute. CITY. HALF-PAST ONE O'CLOCK. Consols are not so rood as in the early part of the morning, when they were done at 89* for the Account, having since receded to 89 sans, and 881 # for money. Some sales of Consols have been made fur the Account. The Foreign Market continues without any operations to the present hour. At a late hour this afternoon, a Dutch Mail brought us the Prussian State Gazette of the sth inst., in which there is an article, confirming the fall of Adrianople, and foolishly speculating on the proba bilities of peace. Posted at the North and South American coffee-house. Extract of a letter from New Orleans, dated the 24th of July—" The Bingham, American ship, has put in here. The whole of the Spanish expedition has been dispersed, in consequence of a severe gale. The Bingham lost her main-mast She has 500 Spanish troops on board." Accounts from Constantinople state, that after the Reis Effendi had accepted the Treaty of the 6th of July, he asked the British Ambassador to obtain from the Russian General an immediate armistice ; but the Eng lish Minister did not think himself authorised to inter fere, consequently referred the Reis Effendi to the Rus sian General, MUFFLING. Accounts from Gibraltar, 20th August, state that scan dalous desertion prevails in the above fortress amongst the British soldiers, who desert to Spain, where they are received and enrolled, it is said, for a foreign Legion, which is to compose a part of the Royal Guard—one of these men had been condemned to death by a Council of War. Quebec Papers have also been received at the North and South American Coffee-house to the 7th August. His Excellency, Sir James Kemp, and suite, returned to the seat of. Government on Saturday evening. The Hurler frigate, with Admiral Sir Charles Ogle and lady on board, was to sail for Halifax on Sunday, for Quebec. In Upper Canada the wheat harvest has been com menced, and the crop is of an excellent quality; but on old land the crops are generally heavy. A Jamaica Mail has arrived, which sailed on the 4th August. Papers of the 3d August have been received at the North and South American Coffee-house ; they are of very little interest, and do not contain any infor mation in regard to the Spanish Expedition to Mexico. We extract the following passage from the paper of the 3d August :—" We congratulate the inhabitants of this city on the abundant supply of ground provisions.- -We learn, that in Trinidad a number of slaves, imported from Dominica, under the denomination of domestics, have been seized by order of Government, and that others, to the number of 1800, imported under similar circum stances, since the Ist Jan. 1825, will also be seized, and it is supposed the whole will be confiscated to Govern ment. In Barbadoea a Mr. Franklin, who was in the habit of taking slaves from thence to Trinidad, has been imprisoned." Extract of a letter from Saint Jago de Cuba, from the Jamaica Papers received this morning to a house in that island—" The next vessel that arrives from your port, I am afraid, will have to wait, unless very considerable supplies come in. Shortly the authorities here begin to talk of stopping the exportation of flour, as it was scarce at this port. Since the above was written a Bri tish vessel was seen coming in with 3,000 barrels of Spanish flour. This seasonable supply will enable the merchants of St. Jago de Cuba to tranship for consump tion here the first cargo of American flour. ST. JAGO DE CUBA, JULY 22.—We regret to state that there are no Bills .on the States ; and at present there is a demand for about 20,000 dollars, for which a premium would be given from 3 to 5 per cent. Extract of a letter from Alexandria, 7th July :—" The Viceroy has been here since the 15th June, and was oc cupied in inspecting the new works of the arsenal, as well as the ships bading ; after which he went on board on the 18th June one of his brigs of war, accompanied by two of his largest frigates, to try their sailing. They again returned after an abs ence of a few days. Ibrahim Pacha has arrived at Cairo. On the 4th inst. arrived here the frigate Semarang, from the Dardanelles, which came for the purpose of announcing officially to the Vice roy the return of the Ambassadors to Coostaadiapie. This English frigate was followed by an Andtha, fis Elbe, and a French brig, bringing dispatches frank few stantimple. The commerce here is in a state ofseagastion. lwr
