Ittrosmorr EVENT .--Letters have been received from Corfu, stating that an insurrection had broken out in the Greek Islands of a most formidable kind, amp for which secret preparations had been making for a long time. It is understood that the Insur gents have been supplied from Odessa with warlike stores of every description, that numbers of officers have received Russian passports to pass over to the Islands, and that considerable treasure has been amassed to forward the attempt. There is no doubt but that the Greeks uct in concert with Russia, and that what was foreseen by every able statesman will speedily be realised. The Emperor Alexander will make the emancipation or the Greeks the pretext fitr an attack upon Cunstantiliople ; and it is most pro. Tilt NATIONAL lI.F.GISTEIt - - - - liable that this was to be his equivalent for acqui escing in the subjugation of Italy by Austria. -Here then, if this news, which is communicated to us by letters of high authority, we have the commence ment of a wad• in which we cannot fail to be involved, unless we arc willing to submit to the unbridled ambition of these Despots, and quietly see the Turkish dominions, the lonian Islands, Malta, Italy, and Sicily, delivered over to them. TILE Catholic Bill (the two having been incorpo rated into one) has passed the Mouse of Commons, and been introduced to the Lords by Sir John Newport, who (in the regretted absence of Mr. Plunkett, by whom it was brought iii) has gained credit withall parties by the efficient and gentlemanly manner in which he has conducted its progress.— As we anticipated last week, the Lord Chancellor and Lord Liverpool each discharged his artillery of opposition to this Biil, and we have no doubt will redeem the promise they gave of opposing it in every stage, and however it may be modified —but is the House of Lords—the inherent branch of our legislature—to be ruled by the dictum of intolerance, pronounced by two men, in opposition to justice, honour, hoaes:v, and gratitude. We do not mean to impugn the motives of these lords—we doubt not they act from the most conscientious feel ing, but we do know that the view they take of the measure is founded in bigotry and narrowness, and we trust,fervently trust we shall see them defeated— we arc not yet without hope of seeing that time, when a man may be allowed to serve his country, without any stipulations whatever on the score of his religious creed—whoth , :r he address his hymn of gratitude to the east or to the west, and we would impress upon our readers, and the country at large the applicability on this subject of the divine interrogatory—" Who has made thee a judge between him and toe ?" Lord Castlereagh appears determin ed not to be too popular—his honest endeavours on the Catholic Bills gave rise, perhaps, to a fear that he might be esteemed by the country (a fear we sincerely believe to be entirely unfounded), and he therefore mustered all his forces to oppose the repeal of the New Malt Tax, tin the abolition of which a majority of the IL use had declared a necessity, and for the continuance of which not one honest reason can be assigned. Nevertheless, and we. speak it with deference to the House of Commons, that honourable House, acting, cu Girouclic, threw out the Bill on its second reading, which they had declared desirable, necessary, and just, on a prior evening—how long the House may remain as it is we know not, but while its votes are opposed to the ardent wishes of the People, it certainly appears to us an anomaly to call its Members the " IRepresentatives of the Commons of England."— To allude to any wic speech in support of the Bill may seem partial, but its excellence demands that we call our readers attention to the second speech of Mr. COKE upon the subject. The Game Laws have given rise to an animated debate in the House of Commons—the aristocratical part of the community laud these di.-graces to our statute-book, because they " draw a line of distinc tion between the upper and lower classes," as if a merchant, with an income of ten or twenty thousands per aIIIIUIII, had not as good a relish, and as good a claim to a hare, a partridge, or a pheasant, as a man possessed of land enough, not to keep, but to starve, his family upon. The motion for the repeal of the Agricultural Horse 'fax, it will be seen, has been withdrawn, on an understanding that the recom ,nendatioa of the Agricultural Committee, now sitting, if it go to that point, shall be acceded to. We received a I lamburgh mail on Saturday mon: ing, from which the linbiwing are extracts : CAsset., March Y4,—Wc know here no founda tion whatever for the report which we find in the Hamhures Currespndenten, of territorial acquisiti ons, likely to be made by the Kingdom of Hanover, in the County of Schaumburg, in consequence of thedeath of the late Elector of STOCKUDLM, March 20 —A rcasonaUe Pibposal having been made to alter the mode hitherto adopted, tir calculating the amount of the import duty on f4eign wool, his Majesty has decided that the duties shall hencefinward be estimated according to the value of the article. ---- -------- Bygger still refuses to confirm his statements by evidence. By the latest accounts from the town of Gcfle, the province of Geflulland, we learn that the wolves have devoured several children in the neigh. lwitirhood. A girl nineteen years of age has also been a victim to these ravenous creatures. The King has given 8,000 dollars from his privy purse, for the sufferers by the fire at %Vimmerby. It is positively affirmed that the application made by the Ex King of Sweden to the Norwegian diet, to obtain the rights of a citizen in Norway, is to be considered as having never existed. COPENHAGEN, %fell 27.—The shares of the Asiatic company 4,800 in number, arc for 400 dol. lars specie each In . the general meeting, on the 15th January, the directors were also authorised by the proprietors to take suitable steps lot. the recovery of 500,000 dollars, which sum was lost by the occupation of Serauspore by the English, in 1808. The recovery of this last sum is considered as in some measure uncertain, notwithstanding the solemn declaration of Lord Minto that all private property should be respected. Three persons lately deceased, have left in the whole a capital of about two millions, which, if the amount of Bank-notes in circulation is taken at twenty-five millions, makes one-twelfth of the whole circulating medium of the kingdom. By recent Jettters from France we learn, that a squadron is assembled at Toulon, composed of French, Neapolitan, Netherland, and Russian ves sels. Two Russian frigates have already arrived, . time Am: and Commerce de Paris; they are put under the orders of the French commander. The funds it seems mm to he pretty well ascer tained that it is a Bull account at time Stock Ex change, and the funds arc consequently heavy.— Consols for money having declined to 71i, and for the account to 72, The efforts of the Jews to rally have proved unsuccessful ; and the sanguine ex pectations that consols for account would reach 741, have not been realized as yet, nor is there any good reason to suppose they will remelt that quotation This month. At the present the consols are 71j for money and 72 for the account. Ships, Ike. building, a Chatham Dock-yard :••••• BUILDING. Guns. Prince Regent.

Mrs. Turner, of Isleworth, one of the passengers, was unhappily killed on the spot; her husband had his collar bone dislocated; two other passengers were severely wounded, and the coachman had bis jaw beaten in, and was otherwise much hurt. A Flanders mail brings a report, that the French Goveinment means to form an army of observation, of 30,000 or 40,0110 men men, in the South of France.—The revolution of Piedmont, and the simultaneous disturbances in Grenoble and Lyons, are assigned us the cause• Marshal Victor, Duke of Belluno, is to have the command, with very ex tensive powers. It is probable, however, that the change which has taken place in Piedmont, together with the success of the Austrians in Naples, will render the thrmation of-so large a force unnecessary. The mail brings no other news. The greatSletple Chace.—The sporting match between Captain Manton and Mr. Mulpas, for 'lob guineas, took place on. Thursday morning from Mount Sorrel "louse, Surrey, to Finley Cover, a dis tance of 11 miles of difficult country.. To make the nearest way there were many perilous leaps which the horses cleared with their riders in fine style, and left the greater part of a field of sportsmen who ac companied them. The competitors kept together to the Maley ('over, when they separated and skirted it at o f posite angles, and at the ridge of hills, three miles from Frintley, the race become interesting. It was neck or nothing down the hills, with leaps nearly six feet. But the most interesting part was the leap at a rivulet of 14 feet, which might have been avoided by taking a route of a quarter of a mile Both horses cleared it in gallant style, and the race came to the speed of the horses up the hil , to the Cover, and Capt.tiu Mantua wou it by 2uo yards in 8/ minutes. ~`_ -2•11.•••. ~.....
