By the extract of a letter from Odessa, dated August 24th, it will be perceived that the courier who arrived in that city on the preceding day, bearing the keys of Adrianople, brought with him also intelligence that the General intended to set forward on his march to the capital, two days after his entrance into the former city. Allowing, therefore, a fortnight for this march, which is a liberal allowance—the dis tance between the two places exceeding by very little that between London and Bristol—the Russian troops would arrive under the walls of Constantinople in the first days of September, and we know that there is no intervening impediment. But a few days more—perhaps even to-morrow's mail—will put a termination to these uncertainties. The Times talks of the " ominous popularity of Ge neral LAFAYETTE :" certainly, it is ominous for the friends of the Times on the other side—the allies and in struments of METTERNICH and POLIGNAC—the con spirators against constitutions. There is not at this . moment one print in Europe so useful to the cause which all good men deprecate, as this self-styled " leading journal," in whose columns excuses and palliation are found every day for the encroachments and perfidy of " powers that be." The corrupt application of his great talents and enormous resources, to lull the friends of li berty into a false security under existing systems, and pa ralyse the efforts which so many kingdoms are making to free themselves from a state of political thraldom, become incompatible with advanced intelligences, has obtained for him—in place of his once inappreciable popularities —the palms of Machiavelian pre-eminence. We wish him joy of his honours. But when the Times says— " it is undeniable that the Ministers possess, in every vise, the right of seizing Journals containing articles which they intend to prosecute as libels"—we trust that he alludes only to the seizures which have been already made by the French Ministry ; and that he does not at all mean to import, even by inuendo, into this country, the detestable doctrine which he is vindicating with such bald effrontery for his patron the Prince Da POLIGNAC. There is just now such a queer and sus picious resemblance between the state of the public press in the two kingdoms, that an allusion made to the one, may—unfortunately—by no very strained inference, 1* brought to bear upon the other: for though the jotirnals in this country have not yet been seized, it is said to have beer► a matter of deliberation in high places, whether the placards announcing the Ministerial prose catioas, on which we have already commented, should not be forcibly torn down by the police? The Times not yet opened his mouth on the subject of these drn:onstrations of the Noble Duke : he is, we believe, the only Journal—except one, from whose lips political purity is never expected—who has abetted the portentous proceeding. • Letters of the 221 ultimo from St. Michael's, unani mously concur in reporting the miserable state of Don MIG UEL'S armament, after the victory gained by Count VILLA FLOR, and his brave companions. The loss is stated to exceed 2,000 men. One of the frigates was towed to Fayal, completely disabled, and the 74, Don John the Sixth, arrived at St. Michael's greatly damaged in her hull and rigging. The bitterest accusa tions and recriminations have taken place between the two naval commanders, PREOO and ROSA, and Colonel LENIOS, who commanded the land forces. Two guerrilla chiefs, Moxiz BARRET() and Lutz DE MEIRELLES, Mho had left Terceira, and had passed to St. Michael's, are accused by the Officers of having given un true information concerning the state of the inha bitants in the former island. A report was preva lent in St. Michael's that Colonel LEMoS, and Lutz DE MEIRELLES were in arrest 011 board the Admiral's ship, to be conveyed to Lisbon ; and that they were accused by the naval commander as the cause of the misdirection given to the operations of the expedition. Symptoms of disaffection on the part of the remaining troops have already been discovered, and that an insurrec tion, if it take place, will be as general in the laud forces, as in the fleet, is the fear of Admiral PanGo, whose au thority has not been able to silence the rumours and re marks which his Officers have permitted themselves on aecount of their unfortunate expedition. ROSA had promised so many wonders to Don 51 to um., besides having threatened the Volunteers to take them by their ears to the murderers of Oporto, that he finds himself with no other resource, than that of accusing Admiral PREGO and Colonel LEMos. The general opi nion of the officers was, that nothing ought to have been undertaken against Terceira without a force of twelve thousand strong ; acknowledging that Conde DE VILLA FLOM'S Government had gained the confi dence of the inhabitants, who, instead of rising against the garrison of Terceira, have furnished recruits and horses for mounting the troops of cavalry, which the Commander of the expedition would not believe were ready to fight them. Eight French Jesuits, lately arrived in Lisbon, have taken possession of the direction of the College of Nobles, by order of Don MIGUEL. We have not this day received the confirmation of the rumour of yesterday, that the Russians were in posses sion of Constantinople, although there can be little doubt of the fact. Nor have the arrivals of the day brought us any particulars regarding the concessions which the hu miliated GRAND TURK is now offering on his knees.— , Our only fresh information from abroad is contained is the following brief selections from the Hamburgh Papevs : COPENHAGEN, Sim & Os the 3d inst. two Rustlan ship. of the line, and a trlgate,ar rived here from the North Sea . : they probably come front Arch- MA.

GOSPEL.—A few Sabbaths ago, an itinerant:preacher, in one of the chapels at Bridlington, gave the following humorous definition of the word Gospel. He said, " My dear friends, you all know the pain we experience when a spell' runs up the finger nail ; now let me tell you, the Gospel simply implies Go-spel ; and that is to pierce your very hearts !"—Hull Rockingham. Saturday morning a house at the head of Blythe's Close, Castlehill, Edinburgh, four stories in height, fell in with a dreadful crash, accompanied by the almost si multaneous fall of a large stack of chimneys. Fortu nately, however, no lives have been lost ; one man was extricated from the ruins very much bruised, and was im mediately sent to the infirmary ; he is not in a dangerous state. His wife is likewise very much hurt, but the other inmates luckily escaped uninjured. Mr. Macdo nald, pipe-maker, one stair up, has lost all his furniture, which is completely destroyed.

We understand that a measure is in contemplation which is calculated very much to raise the Wesleyan me thodist ministers in the estimation of the public. It is that in future the candidates for the ministry are to un dergo examination by the principal preachers, in the ology, the classics, and the mathemaiics ; and if, after a probation of two years, they are found deficient in these respects, they are to give up all ideas of officiating in the pulpit. TiEFRENCII REVOLUTION.—There were guillotined in France, between 21st September, 1792, and 25th October, 1795, 18,613 persons.

FOR THE STAR. First Impressions mike deep, end. very naturally, seise the mild, and somewhat arbitrarily ; they govern the judgment to a premature conviction upon the subject, to the extent of cue's comprehension; and we are apt hastily to conceive and deter. mine, at the same moment, spontaneously, and to consider the question at rest, until succeeding circumstances awake the mind and mite to second thoughu; then, nor till then, do we discover our error and correct our judgment. Mere words—two or three monosyllables. for example, will accomplish this defeat of superior intellectual facalties—by a coup de main, as it were—such as " The Poor Rates." Mark, here, how the powers of discernment are hoodwinked, and the judgment led astray to erroneous deter minadon, byferst itnpresifons-09 times in 100—and, unfortniately, nine times in ten, to the Wary of the object In view, and general interests.

In !it .--Dispatches were received from Captain Stuart, dated the Bth instant. He had succeeded in penetrating the marshes, and had reached some high lands, at a distance of about 150 miles, north-west of Mount Harris. He discovered a river of considerable magnitude, being four times larger than the Macquarie. The waters of the river are salt. Tbe natives were numerous and friendly. He traces the river upwards of 80 miles, but was unable to proceed further for want of fresh water ; he returned to Mount Harris to meet a supply of provisions, and started again to prosecute his discoveries. The price of wheat continues the same, from 7s. 6d. to Bs. per bushel. Water was so scarce at Sydney, on the beginning of this month, that the trade in water became almost as profitable as rum and coffee. MR.

The Boroughreeve and constables having refused to give the Right Honourable Gentleman an invitation in the name of the town, an active canvass has been going on during the present week to obtain signatures to an invitation from such of the inhabitants as felt disposed to join in the compliment; and we understand a deputation, consisting of JAMES WOOD, S.

Friday night we had some accounts from the Davis' Straits fishery, which are now of much greater im portance than formerly, as not above five or six vessels resort to the Greenland fisheries. The accounts were brought by a boy landed at Shetland from a Danish vessel. He is one of the crew of the Rockwood, of London, lost in the North-east Bay, Davis Straits, then having one fish. This early date cannot have much influence on our markets, although it is said that the ships generally were badly fished, and many clean. Three of the Newcastle ships had only one fish smart them.—Liverpool Album. - 1' a
