RUSSIA. ODESSA, SEPTEMBER 12.' The son of the Civil Governor, M. Grugnhoff, ar rived here yesterday express, and brought the order of the Minister of Finance that the free port of Odessa shall remain unchanged till further notice, and on the same footing as hitherto, and that the merchants may unload their goods as usual. Accounts from Calamata, in the Morea, state that the Greeks had found 120 cannon, 10,000 muskets, a considerable quantity of gunpowder and military stores, in the fortress of Monarasia, which they took by capitulation. SarrEstaut 18.—We have received accounts from Constantinople to the 14th. Perfect tranquillity pre vailed 4 the Turkish State continued to buy up corn; about 200 ships had sailed from the Mediterranean. We do not doubt here of the continuation of peace. ST. PETERSBURGH, SEPTEMBER 20. Ills Majesty the Emperor set out yesterday from Zarskojeselo for Witepsk, to review the regiments of Guards stationed there. It is said that his Majesty will be here again in a fortnight. Their Imperial Highnesses the Archduke Nicholas and his Consort arrived here on the 22d. The new commercial port of Kunda, in Esthonia, was opened on the 13th inst. The importation of foreign merchandise and manu factures continues without intermission. The demand is inconsiderable; all the warehouses are full; it has even been found necessary to fence in a large piece of ground near the Exchange, where the goods are placed for want of magazines to secure them. RIGA, SEPTEMBER 17. It is now expected that the Guards have received orders to march towards Moscow, which deserves credit, and in fact gives us reason to suppose that they will not be ordered to proceed still further to wards the Turkish frontiers. Hitherto, however, the continual marches and counter. marches of those troops, as well as of the others cantoned in the Governments of Minsk and Witepsk, have had no immediate object but exercising and reviews. Meantime the Emperor h expected at Witepsk, and his horses have been there there this fortnight; 40,000 poodsof ammunition have been sent from the fortress of l3obroisk to the Ukraine, whence it is supposed that the army on the Truth is to be considerably reinforced, and the com mencement of hostilities is looked to as probable.

Conn. for Account 78 'A 'A 3 / 4 • We beg to direct the attention of our Readers to the Letter, which we have inserted in another part, from " A Patriotic Englishman and Philanthropist," on the pretended increase in the Revenue. Our Cor respondent starts a new view of the subject, which, if correct—and for ourselves we think it unanswer able—reduces to mere trifling all that has been said about the differences of a few hundred thousands be tween one Quarter and another. The principle on which this intelligent writer proceeds is of a simpli city intelligible to the plainest understanding. If a population of twelve millions consume taxed articles to such an amount as to yield a revenue—say of 36,000,00 0 of pounds, a population of fifteen mil lions, consuming at the same rate, while the ratio of taxation remains the same, ought to yield a revenue of £45,000,000. In a word, every additional con sumer ought, if all had been right, to have proved an additional contributor to the Revenue; and it re mains for those who talk so much about the amaz ingly prosperous circumstances of the country, to skew why this has not been the case. The Paris Papers of Tuesday arrived this morning. The KING, who had been slightly indisposed, is stated to be in perfect health. Monday was the fete of the Duchess D'Annou- LENIZ, on which occasion her Royal Highness received all the Officers of the National, Royal, and Swiss Guards, the Staff, and superior Officers of the garrison. The Duke of ORLEANS and his family presented their felicitations ; and in the evening the bands of -the dif ferent corps executed some symphonies under the windows of her Royal Highness's apartments. Tuesday, all the bells of Notre Dame announced the funeral ceremony of the unfortunate MARIE An- TOINETTE ; and on the following day all the Theatres would be closed. The Archbishop of PARIS is dangerously indisposed. An Article from Constantinople of the 14th of September, contains an Ordonnance of the VIZIER, addressed to the Catholics of Dames and Jerusalem, guaranteeing their protection. his Britannic MA.TESTY. it is said, will positively p a y a visit to the King of l'aussie, and pass six days at Potsdam. _ _ Intelligence is arrived from Madrid up to the Sth instant. The Colonel and another superior Officer of the Regiment of Saguutum have been arrested. The KING has ordered a subscription in favour of the suffering inhabitants of Barcelona. The. Extraordinary Cortes were occupied, in their Sitting of the Ist inst. in discussing the territorial divisiop of the Peninsula. In Lisbon, a subscription has been opened for cele brating, on the 18th of October, the funerals of twelve individual.; who were executed on that day, in 1817, for their political opinions. The sum 'pro duced (after defraying the expenses) is to be appro priated to the widows and orphans of the deceased. The prisons and the halls of the secret Inquisition at Lisbon have been thrown open for public inspec tion, by an order of the Cortes. Accounts from Lisbon state, that the English Charge d'Affaires in Portugal (Mr. WARD) has left the coun try without his passports. The Charge d'Affaires is represented to have taken alarm at the avowed de termination of the Cortes to reform the Tariff of the Portuguese Customs, in pursuance of the 25th Arti cle of the Treaty with England of 1810. French Funds, Oct. 15—Five per Cents. 89 f.. 45 c. Bank Stock, 1,587 f. 50 c. A Flanders and Dutch Mail also arrived this day, bringing the following intelligence: HAGUE, OCTOBER 15. His Majesty opened to-day the Session of the States-General with a speech, in which he gave a moat satisfactory account of the present state of the kingdom. His Majesty states, that he continues to receive the most unequivocal testimonies of friendship from other Powers; and that, notwithstanding the events in the Levant, there are still well founded hopes that peace will be maintained. The fears of an unfavourable harvest are vanished ; commerce and navigation have net been neglected, and there is reason to hope that they will become more animated. The manufactures have not pros pered as might have been wished, but some of the most important have considerably improved of late, and there is little reason to complain of want of work. His Majesty speaks with satisfaction on the diffu sion of knowledge among the people, and of the im provement also of the Fine Arts. The internal ad ministration of the kingdom is improving ; the com munications are facilitated by new roads ; important works have been executed to prevent the inundations of the Rhine, and others are in contemplation ; a great reform is intended in the prisons ; the state of the finances is promising, arid the new projects of laws on that subject are neatly ready. 66Nommil AUGSBURG, OCTOBER 6. The motions of the Russian troops have lately as sumed a more decisive character. It is confirmed that teinforcements have been sent to the army on the Pruth. It is observed that the Porte in its Erman to all the Paellas and Governors of Provinces, to enjoin them to protect the Greeks and other Christian sub jects of Turkey, has formally excepted from this kind of amnesty the islands of Samos, Ypsara, Hydra, and Spezzia, because they were the first that com menced the revolt, by organizing a great maritime force. It is affirmed that this exception has displeased the Russian Cabinet. WARSAW, OCTOBER 3. By an Ordinance of the 31st of July, Colonial goods and liquors ate in future to be imported into the kingdom of Poland by water only. VIENNA, OCTOBER 3. Earl Clanwilliam has left this city for Padua.— Their Majesties the Emperor and Empress are gone to Ilellitsh. Great damage has been caused inliun gar), by the inundation of the Danube. On the 2•lth of July a tire broke out in the fortress in which Ali Pacha of Joannina is shut up, which consumed all his Palaces, and many magazines filled with provisions. The report of his death, so often circulated, is renewed with greater confidence, but many suppose that this rei-ort, as well as the negotiations which he endeavoured to open, by means of his confident, Wall Aga, with the Turkish General of the besieging army, were mere stratagems to deceive his enemies. Extract of a letter from Philadelphia, dated 16th September :—" We are informed, from good autho rity, that the Secretary of the Navy, on hearing of the late piratical outrages, and particularly that com mitted on the Orleans, has with all promptitude given directions to Lieutenant Gregory, of the United States schooner Grampus, lying at New York, to proceed on a cruize along the coast of Florida and the Bahama Islands, in such direction as may be most likely to intercept the pirates. Similar orders have also been given to the public armed vessels on the Southern Coast; and it is also understood that the Navy De partment will order a convoy for the vessels about sailing for Cuba and New Orleans. Tuesday se'nnight, the Right Hon. Lord Srowera, visited Bothwell Castle, and afterwards proceeded to New Lanark, where he dined with Mr. and Mrs. Owaw. In the evening he visited the Institution, which the workpeople attend after their labour is over, and was much gratified to find the young per sons who had been at work during the day, so use fully and beneficially employed in the evening, in stead of being in the alehouses. Monday evening a splendid entertainment was given by the Corporation of Bath, at York-House, to Marquis CAMDEN ' the Recorder; to which a large party of Nobility , Clergy, and Gentry, were invited. The Clerks in the Bank, about to be dismissed un der the new regulations of the Directors of that Establishment, have received orders to prepare for that event the latter end of this month.

In the evening, when the KING drove through the City to view the illuminations, the Duchesses of CUMBERLAND and CAMBRIDGE and the Archduke FERDINAND, were in the carriage with his MAJESTY.' On the 11th. after the Archduke FERDINAND and the Marquis of LONDONDERRY had had an audience, the following presentations were made to his MAJESTY, in the Audience Chamber, by the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Count MUNSTER, Hereditary Field Marshal of the Kingdom, viz.

At eight in the evening the Ladies were received, who were presented singly to the KING, by the Countess of MUNSTER. The KING kissed each Lady on the forehead, and spoke in the most condescending manner. His MAJESTY, accompanied by the Duchesses Of CUMBERLAND and CAMBRIDGE, walked several times through the rooms while the music was playing, and conversed with several of the persons present, and retired to his apartments at half-past ten o'clock. The day before yesterday, the inhabitants of this capital had the happiness of seeing their beloved So- VEREIGN make his solemn entry. His MAJESTY mounted his horse at Herrenhausen, at half-past one o'clock. The Procession was arranged as regulated in the Programme previously published, and pro ceeded through the avenue of Herrenhausen, at the entrance of which his MAJESTY allowed the city guard, on hocseback, to escort him. In the avenue, the regiments of cavalry were drawn up on each side, all the way to the city. The side avenues were crowded with spectators, who followed the procession with incessant acclamations, and cries of " GOD save the King !" in which the troops joined. it the end of the avenue, where a triumphal arch was erected, his MAJESTY was welcomed by citizens of the suburbs, in state dresses, and young ladies, who strewed flowers before him. At the gate were the Civil Authorities and the Clergy, who compli mented his MAJESTY. A salute of 101 guns an ,nounced the entrance of his MAJESTY within the walls of his faithful German capital. His MAJESTY passed through a double file of ar tillery to the triumphal arch, where young Ladies presented a Poem, which his MAJESTY most gra ciously received, accompanied by the ringing of all the bells, by the thunder of the cannon, :and, which was certainly the most agreeable to his MAJESTY, the incessant rejoicings of the multitudes that thronged the streets. The Royal procession advanced very slowly, so that anybody could see his beloved Mo- NARCIi s who, with an affability that excited feelings of gratitude and delight in all, saluted on all sides as he rode along. After the detachment of the hussars of the guard that opened the procession, followed nine State car riages, each drawn by six horses. Immediately be fore the KING rode his Royal Highness the Duke of CUMBERLAND; on the Kum's right hand the Duke of CAMBRIDGE; and on his left the Archduke Faa- DINAND. His MAJESTY wore the uniform of a Ha noverian Field Marshal, with the insignia of the Order of the Guelphs.
