Similar pre cautions have been takes in Corsica, as well as in the Balearic Islands; whilst the French, in the prosecution of their hostilities against the barbarians, have as yet , confined them to the strict blockade of their prin cipal port. .--,.....—_. - - We received this morning several sets of German Pap-rs, including the AlgemeineZeitung,NurembergGr respondoW, and Frankfort Journals, all three to the 11th ibet. The Algemeine Zeitung has an article from Munich, dated the 9th, announcing the arrival in that capital of the son of the brave MICHAEL Boma's, who fell during the:siege of Missolooghi.This interesting boy,who is about 11 years of age, is of a very prepossessing appearance: and,amongst the offersonade to his mother byseveral Mo natchs to take charge of his education, she has preferred that of the King of BAVARIA, under whose generous pro tection he is now placed. The Suliot, who accompanied young Boszaats, was the bearer of several letters from the Bavarian Officers who have joined the Greeks, from which it appears, that none of them were in the discs• trous action near Athens, having been detained at Egina by other duties. From their accounts, it appears that the defeat of the Greeks was the effect of an excess of confidence, and that their loss amounted to about 1000, who fell in the field, and to 600, who were made prisoners, and who were afterwards beheaded by the orders of the Turkish Seraskier. Amongst the latter were several European Officers, who shared the common fate ; and yet some of our contemporaries have the unparalled impudence to espouse the interests of their butchers. A Cotsican, who was one of the vic tims, and celebrated for his valour, spit iii the face of the Turk, who came to cut off his head, having no other means, in consequeace of his hands being tied behind his back, of taking revenge. It appears that the Bavarian Officers are going to quit the service of the Greeks, but their determination has no connection with these disasters, having been previously adopted from a conviction, that as individuals, they could not assist the cause. Colonel H Ennaasa, at the date of these accounts, was in the island of Milo, where, we learn for the first time, that the King of BAVARIA has possessed an estate for the last twelve years ; in which are the fine ruins of the Old Theatre, near which was found the celebrated statue of Venus, now in the Museum at Paris. Colonel Hennas's meant to employ some workings to search for antiquities, and then return to his Co.'.' panions at Poros. The following intelligence from the Nuremberg Gr. respondent, is the mere echo of a loose rumour. which we gave a few days since from a private channel FROM THE FRONTIERS OP POLAND. Jusn 26. The visit of Field Martha' the Count of Osten Sac ken to St. Petersburgh, was believed in that city to be di tectly connected with the measures which will be adopted, in case the Porte should persist in declining the intervention of the Allied Courts. We learn from the Gazette de France of Sunday last, that the Freach naval force in the Mediterranean is to ; Se immediately reinforced by the arrival of several ships of the line and frigates from Brest and Rochefott. It is also stated that the British squadron in that sea receives every week a new accession of strength ; and that a con siderable Dutch force is also to make its appearance there. The Russian Beet, whose departure for the same destination we noticed yesterday, is, we are told, to be joined by a Swedish squadron; and probably the whole force, which will be employed for the purpose of carrying into effect the stipulations of the late Treaty between England, France, and Russia, will exceed thirty ships of the line, besides the usual propertion of frigates and smaller vessels. This formidable arma ment cannot fail to attain its object promptly, and , at the * same Writ without bloodshed, as the r cite ".4.` no force to me befote, 1 had its origin in wise apd humane motives, as by pre paring the Porte beforehand, it will prevent the effects of a hasty and intemperate decision, When formally called upon to wi.hdraw its forces from GI tem; It would even appear by an article, extracted from the Gazette of Florence, that the SULTAN is by no means disposed to provoke a quarrel with the Al.ied Powers, having recently ordered two persons to be put to death at Constantinople fir having merely spoken disrespectfully of them in their mediatory character. In the mean time, the notion that the peace of Europe is in danger of being disturbed by the present Treaty, is preeminently absurd, and has is source either in sheer ignorance or factions misre presentation. The Allies themselves have already 'hews to the satisfaction of all impartial men, that their views are directed to the preservation, and not to the inter ruption of general tranquillity; whilst it may be truly and confidently said, that of all Powers, they are the lest likely to coalesce for purposes of criminal ambi tion. The nest to this in absurdity is the supposition that Austria has any design, secret or avowed, of thwarting the objects of the alliance, for, her manifest impotence is a sufficient guarantee on that point. It is probable enough that she dislikes an arrangement favourable to the interests of a people, whose efforts she has always attempted to decry, and whose struggle she has uniformly represented as a criminal revolt ; but it is highly improbable that she will indulge so far in that dislike as to compromise her own security. She knows her position too well, to think seriously of placing her self in direct opposition to three Powers, any one of whom is an overmatch for her, and whose conjoint strength, backed too by the good wishes of every civi lized nation on the wide sarface of the globe, would suffice to crush her. rMIRAL. r A L 111011111.11$ Went foe the purpose M of Rtiyal Mariats.— Sir W.Hoste, Sir received at the Admiral's Hard by Adjutant Graham, and a Guard of Honour of Royal Marines.

DeSTRUCTIVE FIRS AT GORDON CASTLE —Wed needay last the inhabitants of Focisabers, and its neighbourhood, wise thrown into a state of the utmost confusing' and consternation, ,by a report of Gordon Castle being on fire. A party of preventive men, under the superintendence of Mr. Glover, proceeded to the Castle, as did also another party stationed at Buckle, under the supermtendance of Mr. Trench. The fire engine helonging to the Castle was plied with increasing constancy, and all the resources which an immense crowd of spectators could command, were put in requisition. Still, however, the Barnes raged with increased violence. In the course of a few hours,the whole eastern wing was enveloped in one general blaze. The whole of the eastern wing of this beautiful and magnificient superstructure is now a scene of entire devasta tion. There is something extremely striking and melancholy in he contrast which this part of Gordon Castle presents to the rest of this imposing edifice, and to the Indescribable beoccauty ed of the surrounding scenery. The destruction of property asion by this melancholy occurrence is immense. It is not, however, yet ascertained in all its extent. In one room there were nine valuable paintings entirely destroyed; and among other articles of furniture were the camp bedsteads of the late lamented Sir JOllll Maims We are happy, however, to be able to state, that none of his late Grace's papers were lost; they were fortunately in the Western part of the Castle. A circumstance which increases this calamity, is the peculiar moment at which it has happened.— The remains of the deceased Duke are now between Edinburgh and Aberdeen, en their way to Gordon Castle, where it is in tended they shall lie for some time in state; end his present Grace L and the Duchess arc posting front Geneva to the Castle, with all "possible haste.
