Cobra, ALT So. —The want of money, which is much felt in Greece, has the advantage of strongly • attaching all classes to the soil, by the common in terest which is taken in the position of public affairs. Many other considemlions, more or less important, have induced the Greek Government to adopt a new mode of paying the troops. It is intended to sub stitute payment in land fir pay in money. The quantity of land which the Goverment will dispose of in this manner is muen,e; the domains of the sultan, and the tricoufr or church lands, embrace alone two-thirds of the whole territory. The following is the law constituting this new method of pay, the novelty of which renders it cu- rims •• The Lepislative Senate. taking intoromideratiln the urgent necessities of the coutitty. which call tor the acsistance of all citizcns disposed to bear arms to repulse the enemy and e.inso hdate the national inklepcndenee; considering also the just reconipence »Well is due to all citizens who devote themselves to the triumph of this sacred cause at the price of their blood; and that ooe of the principal objects of this national war is to win back the land ut our lathers. and to restore it to the hands of the eniacns whom foleigr. usurpatien has deprived of it. has de creed, and the Executive Council has sanctioned, the following law : •• 1.

The proceedings in Parliament have this week been without interest.—Mr. limue's motion on the Sinking Fund, was disposed of by the Chan cllor of the Exchequer's moving that the debate should be adjourned to that day thr,:e menths—this was what might have been expected, for at so late a period of the Session it would be impossible to go properly into it—the folly and wickedness how ever, of incurring the expense attending the Sink ing Fund, while the very opposite measure of the Half-pay List operates exactly against the principle of that fund, and creates additional patronage and expense, are too evident to need even assertion, excepting to those who fatten on the spoil. STOCK EXCHAMIE, SATUNDAT,Two A good deal of business has been doing this morning both in buying and selling, and the market looks steady at Bvii for the aceount, and for money 80ii. We understood the Chancellor of the Exchequer has issued, or borrowed upon Exchequer Bills, to the amount of near four millions since the dividends have been paid. The new awl old Fours ate 991, which is a rise of l per cent. to day. It is stated on the authority of a letter in a Paris Journal from Cadiz, that the yellow fever had mani fested itself in a vc,sel coming froin Spanish Ame rica, and that on its arrival in the Bay of Cadiz, it n as sent to the Lazaretto at Mahon, under the escort of another ship. On Wednesday evening, about 8 o'clock, Major Davison, side-decamp to the Duke of Cambridge, arrived at the King's Palace, in Pall-mall, with u letter from the Duke to his Majesty, announcing the intelligence of the Duchess being safely delivered of a daughter, and that both the Duchess and the Prin cess were doing well. Letters frum Nlathitl represent the jealousy be tween the King and the municipality, to be such, that notwithstanding the appearance of tranquillity, peace is &Kroll' Ling yet definitively accomplished, bctween the conflicting parties in the capital t on. AWalliU! The will of the late Most Noble Francis Ingram Seymour Conway, Marquis of Hertford, was proved in the Prerogative Court,. Dectore'Commons, on the 9th inst. by Isabella Ann Ingram, Merchioness of Ilertlieel, the relict, and Francis Charles Seymour Conwey, Marquis of Hertfind, the son, two of the executers, power being reserved to Lord Henry .S.y. moor, the brother, who has at present ussumed the trust. The testator, in the first place, devises his fieehold copyhold estates in the county of York to the Nlarchioness, for life ; and alter her death, di rects the same to be sold, and the purchase-money to be subject to the general directions as to his residuary price It.s lordship gave them, to the person who, at the time of such sale, shall be in the possession of the mansion of Temple Newsom, with 1501. to defray the charges of conveyance.) All other freeheid estates, either in England or Ireland, are devised to Lord Yarmouth for life, and subsequently to his son, Lord Beauchamp, and his heirs male; the reversion is then to attend the provisions created by certain deeds made some years since concerning the Bagley estates. All household furniture, horses, carriages, carts, implements of husbandry, provisions, stock, Sce. at Ra4ley and Sudborne. use bequeathed to Lord Yarmouth ; and the leasehold estates are given to property, (They are to be uttered for sale ut the trustees in the same manner, and for the benefit of the persons entitled to the said freeholds of inherit ance, escaping, however, Hertford-house and grounds in Manchester-square, and all property therein, with the carriages, horses, and every thing appertaining, and also the house adjoining, which are left to the Marchioness for life, and she is invested with the power of leaving the same by will to any person she thinks proper, fur the term only of such person's lifie when the said houses, Sic. are to be subject to the previous trusts. This power, however, is, by a codicil, revoked. All mollies in the funds, and in any public companies, are given absolutely to her ladyship, with an observation, that although the testator desires that she should have full benefit of the request, it' she is so desirous, yet diet he feels confident of her recoPecting the con versation that lately passed between them respecting it. Five thousand pounds are bequeathed to Lord Henry Seymour, the Marquis's brother, who is ap pointed an executor : a codicil revokes the bequest. To each of his other brothers, 1,0001. To his ne phews, Captain Seymour, of the navy, 10,0001. and to Horace Seymour, and Col. flu& Seymour, 5,0001. each. To the Middlesex Hospital, 1,0001. There are other considerable legacies to relatives and ftiends, and those to servants are numerous and large : several of them are specified for 5001. each, besides handsome annuities. The residue is to be applied to the purchase of freehold estates, which are to descend, hi the manner before stated, to the present Marquis and heirs. On Tuesday last, Cambridge-house, the town re• sidence of her lute Majesty. was sold at Garraway's, by order of her Majesty's Executors. It was stated by the auctioueer, that a few years since 12,0001. had been refused for the lease: the highest sum his utmost exertions were able to obtain on Tuesday was 5,850 guineas. The name of •the person on whose account the purchase was made did not tran spire in the room, but there appeared to be no doubt that a bona fide sale of the property was made. An exposure of monstrous depravity has taken place within these few days, all allusion to which we have hitherto suppressed. Mingled feelings of sor row, humiliation, and disgust, have been in part the causes of our silence ; and the respect we owe to public decency might still have induced us to persevere in our reserve, it' we could have thereby checked the horrible tale in its progress to notoriety amongst all ages and both sexes, which we fear it. has already attained to. The person accused of be ing the chief criminal—P. Jocelyn, Bishop?) Clogher —has, it is affirmed, forkited his bail, and quitted for ever the country which his presence had pol luted. Bail in such a case ! What sum could be named which the wretch wuuld not have sacrificed? We know not whether to rejoice or grieve that he has fled from justice. We know not whether the trial of such a criusinal for such a crime, might not have cost more in the way of corruption, than even his death by law, could have paid in the way of sa tisfaction to good morals. It is dreadful to remem ber, that a pour and perhaps innocent man was sen tenced to transportation from his country, on the oath of this mitred reprobate, for only threatening, to charge him with that of which he now stands (by his flight) confessedly convicted. It is Lein dreadful to think how the church of God has bee scandalized and disgraced. The miseries of Scio are not y et terminated; time Seringapstiam frigate, in passing the Wand on the 7th ut May, observed that it wax then in flames.
