His Majesty the King of the Two Sicilies arrived bete yesterday, at two o'clock, and ut the Icsudence prepared for him at the royal r alace.

His -e:: • tary, M Itacktnami, has not yet set out, as ha.,.,-en e; r stated. li,,nutt, JAN. ; . WO Ir . a, John Nugent livine and Hullan . who were arrested l ere in November, have sold, since Cie begin ling of )819, a vast number of bills of exchango, f.wged by themselves, on numer.ma journeys which they made, chiefly under false names, (rim Paris, through Franev, Switzerland, Italy, Germany, Poland, Russia, Finland, Sweden, Denlark, Holland, Spain, Old other countries ; a great part of these hills has already been sent by the persons deceived by them to the criminal court in this city, which is charged with the investigation of the affair. A third Irish inm in particular, who et•companied the prisoners for several years, is said to have cheated, by title: bills of exchange, many houses in France, Gem.va, Rome, Lucerne, Zurich, St. Gallen, Belzano, Aix la-Chapelle, Brussels, Valencia, Vittoria, St. Peters burgh, Stockholm, Leghorn, Milan, awl Laybach. Some of these cases are specified in the 1 ' lie make issued by the criminal court.) The two prisoners bud with them, when arrested, 6,000 dollars, which is to be divided timing their creditors. J AN. .—The Spectaterr Oriental, of November 30th, gives an account of the plun dering of the Sardinian brigantine, the Spirit° Santo, Captain Cornesigo, by a Cassini. brig, which first sent u boat to seize the captain, and when he was on beard the Greek pirate his vessel was pier tiered of every thing. The captain thinks the Creeks would have murdered him and his crew, had nut a large vessel appeared in sight. The Greeks then put the Sardinian captain on board his vessel, and sailed in a different direction. The captain has come to Smyrna. A shocking affair has happened off Missolonglii, the details of which are not, however, known. We have merely learnt that the Creeks of Nlissolonghi have seized an Austrian sloop, and cruelly murdered the captain, Count Ivanovich, and three of his crew. Letters from Syra of the Bth mention, that great ! agitation prevailed there, in consequence of the dis covery of a conspiracy to plunder the island, and to carry olf every thing in the warehouses, and on board the vessels of the European nations, of which there arc generally about fitly in the port. Some hundred Greeks were suddenly to appear, who were in concert with about 40 persons in the island; the latter were to give notice to the former when the French and Austrian ships of war should be away. The plot, which was to be accompanied by setting fire to the town, and the massacre of the Catholics, were flamed by a number of Greeks of the various islands, and it is said even of Ithaca, one of the lonian Islands. The infamous plot happily came to the knowledge of some persons who privately warned the Primates of Syra, who in their turn hastened to communicate till the particulars they had collected to the Euro peas agents on the island. The latter immediately intiirmed the consuls at Smyrna, that they might take measures to preserve Sera from the danger which threatened it. Sy ra is guilty of two great crimes in the eyes of the Greeks; it has remained faithful to its Sovereign, and has by this fidelity gained con siderable wealth This was more than sufficient to excite both hatred and cupidity. However, it is happy for the inhabitants that they have discovered their danger, and doubtless they will do every thing to secure themselves against it. The Speetateur Oriental contains long reflections en the Greek insurrection, in which it vehemently reproaches the Greeks fur their proceedings:— " Your Sovereign, it is true, was the Sultan, and you are Greeks, but Providence hall given him to you for many centuries, and you ought to have respected him. It was not in his power to change his Government and his religion to please you; but he left you at all times the free exercise of your religion, and every year his benefits made you ad- ValiCc gradually towards your emancipation. Your credit daily increased in the capita.--your com merce absolved every thing—your privileges were on a footing with those of the Europeans—your in creasing wealth enabled you to found every where rich establishments—your armed merchantmen co vered all the seas—your public schools multiplied in Turkey—the th.wat of the revival of letters already tinged the horizon with its brilliant colours—the tree el litb in Greece began to take root, and to put fort It tender foliage : but, alas! it has been suddenly blighted by the infectious breath of pernicious sects, enemies to the repose of the world; it has groaned beneath the repeated strokes of the ri_volutionary use, and already bowed to the earth, it is an object et mourning, when but lately it seemed to encourage the most delightful ht•pes. Thus from the very lie ginning the revolt of the Gretkit appeared t•• be inconsidentto, itnj•:rt, a•t.l criminal. The cox! of their liberty appeared in an unfavourable light. In the midst .•f painful rec•llections, :ma well gmontle4 leers, the vl.•latpnl c r . ! pinsei l les 1.1 legitittuky was lamented, which is the sacred foundation ot• th e isteial edifice, and the surest guarantee .if the happi ness *.f nations. The means employed by the Greeks to oli.aits atl illtiCet o which Wad considered to be a eltiment, have likewise tended tu *pigment the •in easineaet that was ti•lt, and alttigeiltet may explai.i the desire of the Franks fi.r the tiiiiinplt of the Cres txmt, WA the safety of the Empire, the integrity of which they think nceess.ay to the politictl I.;' biome."

THE FUNDS, SATUVRDAY% HALT-PAST Two o'Csocx. Several expresses Lave arrived this 'malting tit,m Paris, by which it appears the French funds con tinue to tall. They left oil' on l'hurslay at 70f. 4t ic. but in the course of the day they were done as low as 77f.—Spurish 40. This depression created great sensation and alarm in our markets--utore particularly A. the answers of the Seiv.ish Govern. ment tip the demai•ils of the ftireigli Ambassadors for their passports, it being thought the Allied Powers will never brook to the magnanimous reply of the Spanislt Minister. All foreign securities have ex. perienced a great fall—the ntarket appearing very heavy. Owing to the probability that a war will take place between France and Spain, the great f.reign stock holders in the city are trying all they can to keep them up, but the current of the tide bears down on them, anti all their eiforts are iu vino. Accounts from Sierra Leone are received to the 9th of November. The Ihiver, 18, Capt. I'. Wol ridge, has returned from her cruise: on the Gold Coast, having taken three slave vessels ; th. last was the Portuguese brig Counperciante. of four gulls, 249 tons, 30 men, for Bahia, with 17j slaves.-- When these poor creatures sastlerstood the cause of their release (they here principally females) they aPlimaclicd the 'deers of the ))river, and fell on their faces, making every dem o nstration of joy and satisfaction. The /)river examined 12 verse's ,luring the crnizc. The Portuguese Authorities at Elwin* (Gold Coast) vontintied to assist the Portuguese slave-vessels with canoes! The Cyreue, 18, Capt. Percy Grace, haul captured the Dutch schumer Aurora, off the Gallitias, of 144 tons, fo , ir guns, and 26 men, well armed, with 130 slaves, via. 43 men, 21 women, 24 boys, and 42 girls. She was captured by the bats of the tyrene, under Lieut. Courteisay. with the loss of one man killed, and twu severely wounded, by the batteries. Capt. Grace, in conse quence, burnt down several towns and slave factories belonging to Siacca, the notorious slave dealer. Late advices from Syria give a ileplorable account of the sitnation of the inhabitants, who survived the first shocks of the earthquake. In addition to the siifFerings pn ducal by hunger, disease, and exposure to the inclemency of the season, the stench arising from the number of dead hoilies hail obliged them to leave the camp they had firmed in the neighbour hood of the towns, abandoning ail hope of any reco very of their property, and reluctantly forsaking their habitations. The Lord Mayor, pursuant to a requisition pr: [ seined to aim, has called a Common Council for Wednesday next, to consider of the propriety of presenting a Petition to Parliament, for Reform in I the Representation. / 1 \ ;ask 4 " -.-4 " ols4olllPlw •,?1 0111.1181.: (IF Mil 1 1-tioterda..., 14 4,1 C.
