CORFU, FEBRUARY 15. We hare received from New Prevesa the news that Ali Pacha has been beheaded by his own people in his fortress, and his head sent to Chourschid Pacha. Private letter% relate the following particulars, which we of course cannot warrant :—The want of provi sions beginning to be felt, the Officers of his guard endeavoured to persuade Ali to accept free egress for binvelf and his people, which had been offered him by Chourschiti Pacha. Ali, who knew better what confidence could be placed in the promises of the Turks, firmly refused. His brother-in-law pressing him more urgently, Ali fired a pistol at him, which broke his arm. The Officers then seized this cruel trrant, cut off his head, and sent it to the Turkish camp. The accounts from the Morea are favourable to the r;iet , ks. At the reduction of the citadel of Corinth, the Greeks got possession of 24,000,000 of piastres,. v. hich the Turks had deposited there. The whole Greek army afterwards passed the isthmus of Co rinth. to Livadia and Thessaly. The seat of Govern nen! W;l3 immediately transferred to Megara ; and if it is true that the citadel of Athens surrendered on c r. c 31 ,Linuary, it will sr:on be established in that rencr.t!):e city. The Grct•k Government has decreed the pay of the r.tilors. The (Efferent branches of the Administra ti•m are mg izcd by degrees. After a sanguinary Errggle of ten months, all the Morea is delivered front the yoke of tke Turks, without foreign aid. II A •lIIURGI2, MARCH 12. Accounts fi om Russia state that a heavy rain fell at Beresoro on the 16th of December, a circumstance v Bich is unparalleled at that time of the year in such 1ti,.;1) latitude. ST. PETERSBURGH. FEBRUARY so. 0.1 the 16th, in the morning, a fire broke out In eic Academy of Arts, which consumed a part of that fil.e building. The fire is supposed to have been caused by the bursting of a pipe of one of the stoves. No work, of art have been lost on this occasion. We have the mildest suring weather. The ice mountains, the favourite amusement of the Russians ill Lent, could not be erected as usual on the Neva. because the ice was not strong enough to bear the ; they have, therefore, been erected on the Grand Parade. A Jamaica Mail ariived this morning, bringing rapers zo the 9th February. '11;e Jewerica Cottrcut, of the 21 February, contained a letter from Ilaranquilla, representing that the Spa- Liards had collec:ed 3 : 000 men, and were within 15 /cal - pies of Santa Fe, and adding that Bolivar was like a madman, having only 500 men to defend the place On the following, day the same Paper contradicted the report, and stated, on the authority of a letter from Santa Fe, of the 7th Jrnuary, that perfect tran ‘;uiliity pervaded there, and that Bolivar had an army of 8,000 men operating on Quito. Extract of a letter from an Aide-de-Camp of Boli var, dated 22d December, from Bogota.—" Colum bia will shortly be without an enemy ; in less than two months Quito will be free."

The French brig Peace, from Marseilles and Mar tinique, bound to St. Jago de Cuba, was spoken by his Majesty's brig Bustard (is arrived): she reports that ten sail of French men of war had arrived at Ma:tinique for the purpose of cr. izing in the Vest Indies arzain , t piratical vessels, five of whom were destined for the coast of Cuba. • 'T!e Irish Papers received this morning detail seve r.ii outrages inthe Counties of York, Limerick, Kerry, and Waterford. In Kerry, Captain Rock has ordered =lnlets to be held in two villages, not hitherto mar ket towns; and such is the terror his name inspires, that he has been obeyed. The ball usually held at Dublin Castle on St. Pa trick's Day, was not expected to be held this year on account of the disturbed state of the country. Saturday afternoon, at two o'clock, a Cabinet C(Aecil was held at the Foreign Office, in Downing. street, which sat till nearly half-past three. Yesterday the Duke of YORK attended Divine Ser vice, at the Chapel Royal, St. James's Palace. Yesterday Divine Service was perfne need to the King's Household, at his Palace, in Pall-mall, by the Rev. F. %V. BLOMBERG. The tarl and Countess of ALREMARGE,Lady MAny and the Hon. Mr. KEPPEL, left town yesterday on a visit to the Earl and Countess of DARNLEY, at their se:et, Cubham Hall, Kent. Yesterday, Mr. and llA►dy ANNIE CONIC attendee! Di vine S e rvice at Paddingtonehnrch,and this morning set oat from Dudleyitore, in that neighboulhood, where they have been spending their honeymoon, to . ;:1 their Mends at Lord DAWILEA in Lent. 13itiontoN, MAR it but beloved Sovereign took aiiitigs, in an open Carriage, on Tuesday and Wednesday. His Maseart looked extremely well. It has been finally determined, that his MAJESTY'S Statue shall he placed in the North inclosure on the Old Steyne, opposite the Pavilion, Brighton. It is to be pedestrian, of bronze, not liss than eight feet high, and to he fixed en a granite pedestal. The ce lebrated CHAvrray is to be the artist. The subscrip- 1 Lions are completed. Mr. ALLAN, to whose unremitted exertions we are indebted for the establishment of the steam-yachts, and the intended erection of the chain pier at Brighton has returned from the North, after making arrange ments for bringing up the Tourist, and contracting for another large and beautiful steam-vessel, similar to the Tourist, for that station. In deference to the vote of the House of Commons, I it will be seen by our extracts from the Gazette of Sa• ', ttwday, that his MAJESTY has newly constituted the Board of Admiralty, so as to reduce the number of Junior Lords from six to four. The Board, therefore, now consists only of the Chief Commissioner Lard MErAnta.z, Sir W. J. HOPE. Sir J. OSBORN. Sir G. CocKauna, and Sir G. CLERK ; making two Com missioners less. Sir H. HOTHAM and Mr. KEITM DOUGLAS are the Gentlemen whose services are thus dispensed with at this Beard, for the present. Letters were received this morning from Constan tinople, dated the 12th Feb' nary. They state that the suggestion of the European Powers, respecting changing the military force of Tut key, is at length attended to. The Janissaries were to be dismissed,' and a new army organized. Peace with Persia had been proclaimed. Madrid Papers to the 4th instant state, that the greatest order prevailed in the districts lately dis curbed, and that some partial movements of the fana tics of antiquated institutions had been easily and in stantly suppressed. Much interest is at present excited in the City on the subject of the trade in Tallow, and other articles of Russian produce. The tendency of the new Tariff is understood to be so decidedly inimical to English commerce, that an attempt is making to impress on the Board of Trade the propriety of recommending to Parliament the imposition of a heavy duty on ar tides imported from Russia, particularly tallow, and the abolition of the excise on soap and candles. Three houses in the iron trade, in Staffordshire, have stopped payment ; one of them has turned adrift 700 workmen. Tuesday night, about eight o'clock, a very large haulm and wheat straw stack was set on fire, in a field belonging to a farm in the occupation of Mr. Ed ward Plant, of Earl Soham, which occasioned an awful blaze, the stack was entirely consumed. The Ipswich Journal states, that the account of the Meeting of the labourers at Hon Green, which ap i.eared in the London Papers, has been by far too highly coloured ; that the numbers assembled never amounted to an hundred, and that on a subsequent day, when the 'greater part 01 those who composed the Meeting were met by two Magistrates, they agreed to abandon their intention of using any kind of force, and to ask, and thankfully to accept, as a favour from the farmers, the promise of discontinuing the use of the threshing machines on this side-of harvest. Friday evening the Duchess of KENT honoured Covent-Garden Theatre with her presence. There is a report of an approaching marriage be tween the Duke of Botrasota and her Royal Highness the Princes CHEISTINR of Naples, sister to the Duchess of BERRY. The Princess was born in 1806. The remains of Mrs. DONA TTY, so barbarously murdered, were removed this forenoon, at eleven o'clock, from Robert•street, in a hearse and pair, ac companied by one mourning coach, and interred in a vault under the Church of St. Andrew's, Holborn.— An immense number of persons were assembled. Sir W. CURTIS was once present at a public din ner, where the Dukes of YORK and CLARINCE formed part of the company. The President gave as a toast, " The Adelphi," (the Greek word for " The Brothers"). When it came to the worthy Baronet's turn to give a toast, he said, Mr. President, as you seem in clined to give public buildings, I beg leave to propose Somerset-House I" A general laugh of course ensued. LUDICROUS CIRCUMSTANCIA Gentleman en tering a Stationer's shop a few days since to procure the play of the Cnre for the Heart Ache, the young apprentice began rumaging in a large drawer—the master making his appearance, and inquiring what he was searching for ? was answered, " The Cure for the Heart Ache,"—" Anil pray where did you expect to find it ?" "In the Patent Medicine Drawer, Sir !!!" SNIUGGLI No.—General A NSTRUTHER, having made himself unpopular, had been obliged, on his return into Scotland, to pass in disguise to his own estate : and crossing a firth, he said to the waterman, " This is a pretty boat ; I fancy you sometimes smuggle with it ?" The fellow replied, " I never smuggled a Bri gadier before !" 1 KING'S THEATRE.—The performances on Satur day were the Opera of Barone di Do:skeins, the Di vertisement Villageors, and the Ballet of Les Pages du Duc de Vendome; the whale went off with great applause. In the brilliant circle were— The Prince Esterhazy, the Princess Fodor, daughter to the Duchess of Kent, attended by General Wetherall and her Go verness; Duke of Argyll; Duchess of Argyll ; Marquisses-- Anglesea, Lothian, Aylesbury. Waterford; Marchionesses—Sa lisbury, Aylesbury, Londonderry, Lansdown, and Waterford; Lords—Grey, Sefton, Bulkeley, Whitworth, Verulam, Mel bourne, Lake, Cavendish, Graves, Granville, Cawdor, Osninon, Morley, Westmorland, Cranbourne, Chichester, Yarmouth, Binning, Alvanley, Fitzroy, W.

Shelly, H. Ha milton, W. W. Wilson, D. Garden, W. W. Wynn, C. Flint; Mr. Mrs. and Misses—B. Paget, H. Stanhope, Beaumont. DISTORIANCE AT THE OLYMlC.—.Saturday t vening, John Hard. . cull, Isaac Stewart, alias Stank and George Suett, alias Sweet, were brought to the Office, in Bow-street, and underwent an examina tion before G. R. MlNsuusi, charged with making a most outrageous disturbance; als o with violently assaulting several persons, breaking musical instruments ' &c. at the Olympic Theatre. They designated each other by the names of Tbm, Jerry, and Logic, exclaiming while they were committing the out rage—" Go it Too, go it .krry, go it Logic," Bcc. After much resistance they were at length secured. Isaac Stewart, who said he resided at Plymouth, and stewed much contrition for his conduct, Mr. Coveney, the Lessee, permitted to be held to bail on his own rvcognisance. The other two were hest to s watch-bouts. Nit • fi • • •• • • . .

Ilasrixos.—Thursday morning, much recreation was afforded to the admirers of the sports of the field, consisting of between forty and Lity equestrians, and upwards of two hundred pedes trians, with the hunting of two deers, conveyed the day previous from a park at Horsham to the estate of ---- Eveasricco, Esq. at Gensing, Grove, &c. near Hastings. The spectators having arranged themselves in an eligible situation from the north-west, facing towards the south, the doors of a barn at the bottom of an elevated field, commanding extensive views of a richly diver sified country of bills, dales, woods, and sea, were suddenly thrown open, when one of the deer w as immediately liberated, and started, a quarter of an hour's law being allowed fur its pro gress, it stepped out in a graceful and nen eintlence manner, ap parently without the least timidity, as if accustomed to the gaze of strangers, and, from being unacquainted with its future destiny, happily it should be su, as Pore illustrates: ' The lamb thy riot dooms to bleed to-day, Had he thy reason, would he skip and, play ? Pleas'd to the last, he crops the flow'ry food, And licks the hand just rais'd to shed his Hood !" Taking first of all an easterly and then a westerly direction, un fortunately one of the fore feet was rendered by accident lather stiff, but when pressed by the doss, a good pack, belonging to Messrs. DIIibNZY and Svannuto, exhibited for a considerable distance up a road a grand display of rapidity of motion, and in the space of three-quarters of an hour was caught in a valley, without having received much injury, and put into a place of safety belonging to Mr. Festoons, and every tenderness shewn she poor animal, probably for another day's amusement.

During the late tempestuous weather there was a series of the most melancholy and disastrous shipwrecks that ever occurred on the shores of Galloway. On Tuesday, the sth inst. the Dove was driven ashore near Parton, and dashed to pieces after losing one man and two boys. The Isabella, Mossor, and the Hope, Werra, were also driven ashore ; and the Mary, LANCASTER, was stranded near Bankend, with the loss of two men through cold and fatigue. The Defence, Braze, went ashore the same night at Allonby—all these vessels belonged to Whitehavt n. In consevence of the distance that many vessels had sailed before the gale reached its utmost fury, the Masters determined to stand for the Manxman's Lake, at the mouth of the !liver Dee, where the anchorage is generally quite safe, but this attempt proved fatal to several of them. 13:tween the hours of three and five, P.M. the blip Falcon, Ileartoecus; Mary Isabella, Or.7taway ; and the snow Joshua, Mows, from Whirehaven to Dublin; the 1)ido, WAUGH, and the schooner Wellington, Cait Lan, cleared the Little Ross, but were unable to.pass the bar. Ily half-past five o'clock in the evening, the Falcon and Mary Isabella had sunk, leaving only a small portion of their masts above water. The Joshua also struck on the bar, Led imme diately went to pieces. In the first instance the D.do and WLl lington also were entirely capsized. The crews of the Dido anl Wellington wt.re saved, but of the Falcon one mint lost ; of the Mary Isabella the Captain and six men perished; and of the Joshua not one survived to tell the motirnittl tale. In all four ' teen or fifteen persons have perished, several of whom have left large families. Saturday, an Inquest was held at St. Bartholomew's Hospital, on the body of Alt. J. Rhodes, a tradesman, who, while passing along the King's Road, was struck on the forehead by a man carelessly carrying a bedstead, and knocked into the road, when a waggon passed over his body and killed him. Verukt, Acci dental Death—Deodand Is. CURIOUS CLIC UIISTA NCR !—SOllle days ago the late Mr. PIRRT'S house at Merton, in Surrey, w as broken into, and a quantity of lead stolen from it. It so happened that an individual concerned in the theft had been impudent enough to do in the drawing room, what the profligate Duke of •Wharton is reported to have done in a pulpit. The constable, on examining the house after the robbery, picked up a piece of paper which had been used on the above occasion, took it home, cleani-t1 it, and immediately went and apprehended two men whom he suspected. In the hat of one of them was found a letter front which the piece of paper alluded to had been torn I EISCUTION.—The execution of lasses Turner,the racher, took place on Monday morning last at Winchester.
