IR.—same as Friday. The French Papers of Thursday and Friday have reached us. The intelligence from Verona is to the 2Gth ult. up to which time it does not appear. that much business had been done by the Congress.— Various reports were in circulation—such as that the Emperor of RUSSIA would return to his empire much sooner than was expected, and that the Congress would be transferred to Vienna. Several remarkable arrests are said to have taken place at Verona, Padua, and Venice. The first meeting of the Congress took place on the 22d ult. It was chiefly devoted to the interchange of powers and civilities.. As it is now no longer doubted that the interposi- tion of the British Government has caused the Mem bers of the Holy Alliance to abandon their designs on Spain and Portugal, the busUiess of the Congress be comes very much narrowed. The most important point on which they will therefore be called to deli berate is the affairs of the Greeks : and here the inte rests and feelings of the parties may be expected to clash. European Turkey is the prize for which Rus sia is contending ; Austria has also an eye to an in crease cf territory on her Hungarian frontier ; and the two miglit perhaps agree to some division of the spoil, could the other Powers of Europe be induced to per mit it; but it is decidedly the interest of Great Britain, France, and Prussia, particularly of the latter, to re sist all aggrandizement of Russia and Austria. Here then is one difficulty, but it is not the only one.— What is to become of the Greeks? Are they not in a situation to make terms for themselves? Certainly they are: for notwithstanding the desolation of Scio and Cyprus, and the wanton massacres committed by the Turks in the Morea, the Greeks are still un subdued—still sufficiently formidable to prevent their being transferred from one slavery to another by a decree of the Holy Alliance at Verona. To support them in their independence becomes a matter of policy as much as it is one of duty, justice, and humanity. Greece, erected into an independent nation, would, tend more to preserve the balance of power in Europe, and to prevent Russia and Austria from encroaching upon their neighbours, than any treaty of offensive or defensive alliance that the other Powers of Europe could enter into. The accounts from Madrid in the French Papers l are to the 2Gth ultimo. General MORI LLO is said to have been arrested on the 18th, in the village of Zurza, three leagues from the frontiers of Portugal. It is said he was recognized by an inhabitant of the place, who had served under him in the war of in dependence. The Alcalde of the village arrested him on account of his having no passport. lie was con veyed to Placentia, and it is reported that the Go vernment has sent him passports to enable him to travel freely to Madrid. Wednesday, M. BENJA MIN CONSTA NT and the Edi tors of the four Liberal Journals, viz. Courier Fran.' pais, Consiitutionnel, Pilote, and the Journal da Cow., tnerce, appeared before the Tribunal of Lorrectional Police—the former charged with having composed, and the others with having published, a letter re specting the deposition of M. LE CARRERE, Sub-Pre fect at Saumur, before the Assize Court of Poitiers. The said letter is denounced as containing insults against a public functionary, for having duly dis charged his dety ; and against a witness, in conse quence of the tenour of his testimony. M. B. CON STANT occupied a seat reserved for him between the Tribunal and the Advocates' bench. On being called upon to declare his name, profession, &c. he replied, 4‘ I declare that I do not admit the competence of .this Tribunal to try me, because I have appealed against the Decree of the Chamber of Council, by virtue of which I am thus cited before the Correc tional Police. But, in order to evince my respect for .the laws, and for Authority, although incompetent, I' am ready to answer you." Some objections to the competency of the Court were also made by the Counsel for the Editors of the Journals. After a short deliberation the Court deferred the suit to a future day, in order tc take into consideration these several pleas. M. B. CONSTANT has received another sum mons to appear this week, to answer to an indict tOnt founded upon his letter to M. MANGIN, Pro- 727.71 T 1 1KW cureur-General, attached to the Royal Court of Poi tiers. The folibwing **acts : - • PAltThp NOVICIII.BII, 1. An extraordinary, courier has brought news from Madrid up to the 25th. The Duke of Castro Torre nos, Captain of the Hallibordiers on the 7th of July, and who had been sent to quarters at Valencia, has been conducted to Madrid, and put in the same pri son with the other accused .persons. The Duchess followed him to Madrid. Brigadier Peron, who at the same epoch commanded the Ist Regiment of Guards, has also been sent to Madrid. General Mo rillo, who had escaped from bis country house at the moment that persons came to arrest him, was seized on - the 18th, at Larza, three leagues from the fron tiers of Portugal. It is said that he was recognized by an inhabitant of the village, who had served under him in the war of independence. The Alcade ar rested him because he had no passport. It is said Government has sent him a passport to come to Ma drid. 'the opening of the Society Landabnvienne, so lamed from a Lieutenant of the Guards, who pe rished in the beginning of July, under the Presidency of the Deputy, Romero Alpuentes, took place on the 25th, in the evening. Salveberez and Garces, two factious Chiefs, had been tried at Pampeluna, and sentenced to death.— They were executed there on the 22d. It is asserted that Alexander O'Donnell, Colonel of the Imperial Alexander regiment, is to take the com mand of the sth distrkt in place of Espinosa, so that if Charles O'Donnell commands the Royalists in the same province, as is said, the two brothers will be obliged to fight one against the other. The Journals of Madrid of the 25th say, that M. Arajuco, cabinet courier, arrived there on the 24th from Vienna, bringing, says the Spedateur (a Minis terial Journal), favourable news. General Espagna, who presented himself at the Court of Vienna as the Emissary of the Regency of Urgel, was not very well received ; a person who has just arrived at Vienna, and one of those who have most influence in theton gress, gave the most flattering hopes with regard to Spain, and displayed a great deal of interest in it.— It appears that General Espagna is not gone to Verona. A letter from Bayonne of the 23d, which is just arrived, mentions that this Officer is at Tarves, in the department of des Hautes Pyrenees. The same letter confirms the news of Quesada's return to Na varre, with 1,500 men. He traversed Upper Arragon without Zarco del Valle being able to stop him, though the Constitutional General arrived at Huesca by forced marches. The elevation oT the Journalist San Miguel, to the' post of a Minister, has roused the ambition of the Editors of the Zurriago and of the Tercerola. Dis pleased, however, with their former coadjutor, they do not spare him in their writings. The Editor of the Tercerola has been denounced to the Alcada, at the requisition of San Miguel, and the affair has been sent for trial. We have not yet received the details, as was ex pected, of the destitution of the Municipality of PAM. peluna. The gates of the town are shut, to secure some emissaries who had entered with bad intentions. It is confirmed that Estella has been surprised by the insurgents, who, after offering a capitulation to about 100 soldiers, afterwards massacred them. Colonel Asura, recently arrived at Tolosa, says that Gurrea, a Constitutional Chief, has advanced on Lerida with 5,000 men; and that Zarco del Voile had left 3,000 men on the frontiers of Catalonia, to prevent the return of the factious into Navarre. From Tolosa, a column composed of 100 men of the regiment Espagna, and of national militia, was' sent to Villafranca to make head against 810 incur. gents arrived on the 18th at Ataun. It is believed these are the band that attacked. Estella. EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM•BAYONNE, OCT. 26. s 4 The Constitutionalists have frequently trumpeted forth pretended victories. Here is one of which we will not doubt, and which excites great joy among the friends of liberty and the Constitution. Colonel Gazes and the Commandant Salaberry, who were lately taken prisoners, have been condemned and executed at Pampeluna amidst the acclamations of a ferocious troop. They had hardly suffered when groupes repaired to the hall of the Court-Martial which had condemned them, and demanded the trial and condemnation of several other Officers of the Army of the Faith who arc in prison. These canni bals only retired when they were assured by the Mem: bers of the Court, that the trials shoulA go on and judgment be immediately given."—Quotidienne. General Eguia displays the greatest activity. Ge neral Don Carlos Espagna is expected, who is to take a command by the orders of the Regency. A ✓unto has been organised, a General Ste, and a general Intendancy for the l3iscayan Provinces. All the or ders or acts given by it will bear the device, Conquer or die for our Religion and oar King. A Portuguese General, who was coming to take re fuge in France, has been arrested at Vittoria, and as.' sassinaced by the Constitutionalists.— Quotidienne. La Ruche d' Aquitaine announces, that Lieutenant- General Count Donselot, Governor of Martinique, has established a Cour Prevotal in that Island, by an Ordonnance, dated August 12th, in order to put a i stop to poisonings, which have been committed in several places. I The Tribunal of Correctional Police at Marseilles has decided de the right of carrying arms belongs 4- • • - , - to every Frinchman who it not e*pressly deprived .01.• it by the law ; that the right to hunt stud Afoot is in herent in property, and thar*every laud-goner may hunt, or allow hunting in his fields, both open and inclosed, during the seasons when it is not prohibited; finally; that carrying arms without permissionis not a crime, unless shooting or hunting actually takes place. This law agrees with that of the Cour Royak of Aix. Strange reports are in circulation concerning the Congress. The Emperor of Russia, it has been for some days said, is to return to his dominions before the time settled for that purpose. The Quotidienne contains more details of the at tempt to assassinate Sub-Lieutenant Wolfel, and they rather differ Flom those it gave yesterday. For ex ample, instead of a great coat this Officer had a mantle, as stated by the Gazette. The weapon, which it also said had only penetrated a few lines, having been stopped by die thickness of the clothing, is now said to have entered an inch and a half into the flesh, although the buckle of the belt, the cloak, and the coat had contributed to stop the blow. The judicial inquiries will soon put the Public in a condition to know what is correct in the account given by the Quotidienne, and by the other Journals.—,--Le Cou rier Francais. This forenoon we received a Flanders Mail, with Brussels Pape••s to the :st instant.

Soares de Alvedo read a plan for the establish ment of a free port at Lisbon, which is proposed by the Committee of Commerce to be read a second time In another sitting. The Cortes have been engaged, in several Sittings, with the organization of the Proiincial Tribunals. A Mitch Mail, bringing Papers to the 2‘i instant, reached us this forenoon. Private information from Manilla, of the 25th of April last states, that a few days before a conspiracy among the troops bad been discovered, the object of which was, to del.:o,e the Governor and to proclaim independence. Tile Go , vernor had taken proper precautions in time, and had caused the mutinons to be in part disarmed and in part sent to Cavita, three leagues from Manilla. Great agitation still prevailed in the city. The same account says that the cholera morbus ha,l entirely ceased at Manilla. Letters from Macao say that the Portuguese there took the oath to the new Constitution on the 16th of February, on which occasion they illuminated the town three evenings successively. Accounts from St. Peter' sburgh, of the 16th or filctober, say that the Emperor is still expected to re turn to that city by the end of December or the be ginning of January. _ _ His MAJESTY has been occupied during the whole of the last week in examiniag the progress that had been made in the Pavilion at Brighton, and the build ings connected with it, during his absence. The din ner parties at the Palace have been exceedingly select. They have hitherto been confined to the accomplished Marchioness and her lovely daughter. and the Ogi cers of the Household, with occasionally an addi tional guest or two. His MAJESTY is very abstemious in his diet, eating simple fare, and thinking only a few glasses of wine. He retires early froth table, and is very soon followed into an adjoining room, where coffee is immediately served. Alters% axis the company adjourn into the tea-room. This delightful beverage is prepared by the hand of the Marchioness, or her beautiful daughter. His MAJESTY then es corts his fair visitors into the Music-room, followed by the whole circle. Here are in waiting the KING'S noble band, who, under the immediate command of Royalty, play. whatever may happen to be congenial to his MAJESTY'S taste. The concerts end about twelve o'clock, when the KING retires to rest.

Lord LIVERPOOL and his new bride, Lord A NDI.EiEI and his daughters, Lord LAUDERDALE, Lord BA THURST, and several of the Ministers with their fami lies, are mentioned. Mr. CANutuo left town on Saturday morning, ac companied by Lord GEORGE BENTtNCK, and Lord HOWARD DE WALDEN, on a visit to the Earl of Li- VERPOOL, at Walmer Castle. The Duke of NoaroLe has left his seat, Fornham, Suffolk, on a visit to Mr. and Lady Aar: COKE, at their seat in Nortolk.

One great advantage in representing the Unirer sky of Cambridge is, that when once a Candidate is returned, he seldom is disturbed in his seat. The LORD MAYOR of Dublin has issued a Procla mation, strictly prohibiting the decoration of the statue of William 111. in College Green, on the 4t4 and sth of November, as a custom occasioning divi sions and animosities, and leading to a breach of the public peace.

The Radical Reformers of Catbele and suburbs er, Tuesday evening last assembled (report says to the number of about 200) upon Coalfell-hill, a mile from this city, attended by a considerable nember of females, their wives and acquaintance, in order to evince tileic joy at the liberation of Mr. limn - Ilchestor Jail, after his long confinement. Drums and fifes with two flags accompanied the meeting, and at eleven o'clock a pyramid, composed of about half a dozen et tar bar rels, was set on Are, around which the company stood; and one of them in two or three words proposed that upon the occasion of Mr.HUNT's liberation they shouli eve a volley of cheers, which was done accordingly.— On returning to the town, they were met by the pt;. lice officers in Caldew-gate, some of whom rushing with pistols in hand upon the bearers of the compelled them to surrender ; the colon's were thea lodged in the guard house.

BRUSSELS, OCTOBER 31. By the Report made by the Minister of the In• terior, laid before the Second Chamber in its last Session (now published), it appears that the assistance given to the sufferers by the inundation in 1820 amounts to above 600,000 florins ; that given in 1821, to persons reduced to distress by fire and other' unforeseen accidents, to 150,000 florins ; besides 13,000 florins to persons who have suffered by other misfortunes. We hear from Antwerp, that ordeis have been re ceived at the Atheneum in that city, according to which the instructions are to be given in the language of the country from the commencement of 1823, and those who are not able to comply with this con dition shall be replaced by others. A similar order has been sent to the Atheneum at Bruges. Lisbon Papers to the 27th ultimo reached us this forenoon. In the Sitting of the Cortes on the 12th inst. the Secretary read a statement from the Minister of Justice, relative to the clandestine departure (as it is called) of seven of the Deputies from Brazil, who had gone on board the Marlborough packet, Captain BULL. Five of these Deputies hate since arrived in Falmouth, and signed a Protest in vindication of their conduct, previous to embarking for Rio Janeiro. In this Protest they declare that—" From the moment they took their seats in the Congress of Portugal, in which they had to struggle in the defence of the rights and interests of their country, and of the nation in general, they unfortunately found that all the efforts they made proved abortive, and that they were even represented as so many aggressions upon the nation. Contempt and insult always accompanied the rejection of their propositions; and after having with anguish of heart daily seen hostile plans against Brazil meditated and put in execution, in spite of their repeated and most earnest remonstrances, the Constitution of Portugal was presented to them in order that they might sign and swear to it—a Consti tution which contains articles of the most humiliat ing and injurious nature towards their country, and in which there perhaps is not one which even indirectly tends to its prosperity at a future though remote period. —The undersigned, therefore, could not, without exposing themselves to the well-merited execration of their fellow-citizens—without being tormented by the everlasting stings of their own conscience—without subjecting themselves to the maledictions of posterity, subscribe, much less swear, to a Constitution which seems evidently framed to exalt and aggrandize Por tugal at the expense of Brazil. On this ground their refusal was founded." The Protest then states, that the indignation against the Brazilian Deputies increased to such a degree, that they no longer considered themselves safe in Lisbon. Two of the Deputies still remain at Lisbon, passports having been denied to one, and the claim of the other, to return to his country, being rejected.— The following are extracts LISBON, OCTOBBB 14. The Commander of a Portuguese brigantine, from Santos in sixty-six days, states that the inhabitants of the Province of San Paulo were divided in their 1 political opinion ; the majority were attached to the Constitutional system, and to the general Cortes, and the King, but that they wished to obey the Prince Royal, as Regent, so far as could be done consistently with their principles ; they disliked the: Ministers at Rio, whom they suspected of promoting disimion,— The Provisional Government had sent emissaries to Rio, in consequence of which orders came to Santos, in June, to collect troops and march to San Paulo, to compel the Governor to execute the orders ars: decrees of his Royal Highness. Two hundred troops of the line immediately matched, but, being met by 800 militia and peasants from St. Paulo, they retired without any action. The want of Portugave troops F r,l •i
