BUCHAREST, Ocr. .—This morning the ringing of all the bells announced the entry of Prince Gbeka, who heard mass in the church of St. Speridion, and then entered the city in great state, amidst an im mense concourse of people. After all the corpora tions, guilds , &c. had passed, came twelve Arabian stallions, richly adorned with gold and silver, and then followed the Prince, riding on a fine Arabian stallion, surrounded by all the great men of the country, wearing the hat and the sable pelisse pre sented him by the Sultan. It was a magnificent sight; joy animated every countenance, and the people saluted the Prince with enthusiasm. The two Primes, his sons, accompanied him. The Prince then ascended the throne, wearing the Kuga on his head, and the firman of the Sultan was read by the Divan Effendi, first in the Turkish, then in the Wallachian language, but on account of the great distance, we could not understand a word of it; only as the name of the Pacha of Silistria was men, dotted several times in thetnrman, we conclude that he is to have some share in the affairs of the Go- about two hours after sunrise, a torrent of lava about a mile broad was perceived, and extending 1111 fur as a mile and a half between the Casa de la Favorite and Resins. The terror of the peasants. and of the people who at this season occupy their country houses, was so great, that the road from Portici to Naples was filled with carriages convey ing families and valuables from the scene of danger. According to the latest accounts, the mountain was • undergoing great convulsions, and though the wee ther was serene, a thick cloud of ashes and sto:.es ' darkened all the left side of the crater, cud exhi bited a spectacle at once picturesque and awful. Owe. 2s.—The eruption of S esuvius is terrible. —.The torrents of lava which flow towards ltesina have already covered 100 acres of ground. The showers ()flushes darken the sky, and hill even in the streets of the capital. The stones which have fallen at Buscotre Casa have accumulated to the height of five palms ; and the evuptions of stones are fre quent, and the sounds which issue from the moun tain are frightful. All the people who lived near the volcano have fled. About 800 persons from the neighbouring villages have beeu received by order of the police and Prefecture. OCT. 24.—While we are writing the sky is ex tremely obscure, and the /shower ofashescontinues. P.S.—We learn, on official authority, that the itsiontain no longer throws out either bitumen, fire, or ashes; that Portici, Regina, and Torre del Greco are delivered. On the side of Somme only, the obscurity is still considerable, and the ashes fail in great abundance. DEFE4I OF QUES4DA. •••—•••• FRANISTOOT, Nov. sww know by authen tic accounts from Marseilles of 'the 27th October, that the Volunteers or Philliellenes have met with no hindrance whatever in embarking for Greece. The cchole story from Freiburgll has no other finind anion in truth than that some who lately were on their way were refused admittance to the French territory, on the supposition that the embarkation for Greece would not take place. The news from Greece is still contradictory. Earlier accounts from Thessaly stated that Jussuf Aga arrived at Larissa with the Turkish garrison of the citadel of Corinth, and added that the Turks and Chottrschid Pacha himself were greatly surprised at the scrupulous fidelity with which the Greeks bad observed the terms of the capitulation ; but there are now accounts from Larissa, of the 13th October, which make no mention whatever of the arrival of Jussuf Aga and the garrison of Corinth ; and it is therefore apprehended that the news of the surren. der of that fortress, which would be so important to the Greeks, was premature. 14 however, it be true, as reported from Belgrade, that Chourschid hull left Larissa and retired to Bitoglia, the Turks, who may still be in the citadel of Corinth, can hardly hope to be relieved: Faisarriaus OW ITALY, OCT. H.—By the post of to-day, we receive the latest accounts from Greece by private communications from the coast of the Adriatic Sea. They confirm the preceding informa tion that we had obtained, and add some new parti culars:— The combined-Greek squadrons, they sat have really taken many Turkish ships of war by an able nianceuvre, cutting them off from the rest of the fleet, which could not,prevent it. Seven Turkish ships were taken on the 27th of September, and the Turks in their subsequent retreat to the Dardanelles burnt several themselves, which could not keep the sea, to preseut them from fulling into the hands of the Greeks. There is no news of the arrival of the Turkish fleet in the Dardanelles; nor is there any truth whatever in the report which has been indus triously spread of their having landed troops at Na poli di Rumania, the garrison of which has derived 310 advantage from the fleet, except a supply of pro visions, part of which, however, tell into the hands of the Greeks. The friends of the Turks themselves are now convinced that the place must surrender. That the Greeks are again in possession of Corinth end strictly blockade nitres, we knew betiire; a later account uflirms that the Turkish corps, which was assembled near Corinth, and which is estimated at 5,000 good troops, bad succeeded in pawing the isthmus, and had taken up un advantageous position in the south of Livadia, in expectation of reinforce ntents from Thessaly and Negropont. At Negrupont the Turks were numerous, and eager to fight. A lloresta corps was advancing from Corinth into Li vadia to attack the Turks. _ vernntent. The entrance of the Austrian Consul, who imme diately preceded the Prince, has spread universal joy. The Boyars are gradually returning ; the houSes are repairing, and the warehouses opened; every where new animation is evident, and the good character of the new Prince promises to this desolated country a return of prosperity, for which as shall be indebted to the wisdom of the Sovereigns. BAYONNE INTELLIGENCE. Letters dated the 6th, from Bayonne, contain the following particulars:— In the patriotic society of St. Thomas, at Madrid, the several letters from Boccelona were lately read, which mentioned the appearance of the French frigate. L'Aniadec before that port, and even added that other French men of war were expected on the coast of Catalonia, and the answer which the French Consul has given to the authorities of' Barcelona, that the mission of Captain Itiguer had no other object than to make himself acquainted with the si tuation of the subjects of his King in this province, and especially in this port, and to offer them in case of need, the protection of their Sovereign, has not produced a good effect in people's minds. The journals of the capital copy, on this occasion, an article from the Indicator Catalan, which contain some virulent remarks on the subject, and affirms that all good Frenchmen are sufficiently prottsted by our laws and our honour. "We have always proclaimed peace," says the Indicator; " the Spa niards seek no ground for quarrel with any body, but neither du they fear any one ; they arc at present more prepared than ever to give a new lesson of wisdom to those who should impudently dare to pass with hostile intentions the mountains of iron . Peace ! peace! with the French nation especially, who think as we do, who participate in our wishes, and so cordially interest themselves in our liberty and happinsss, us we do in theirs." It seems that the Aseadce sailed immediately towards the Straits, and its appearance on the coast of Valencia will pro duce the same sensation as on the coast of Catalonia. The news of the entrance of the Portuguese into Spain is premature, fur nothing seems yet to indicate such a movement ; and the Diario of this capital finds this measure impolitic, especially when the Government has in its hands so many means of sup pressing the rebellion. ••••••••• BAYONNE, Nov. 4.—We have received a bulle tin, published at I'ampeluna on the 29th, by t 2.0 Political Chief, Sancho Salvador, which gives the official account of the defitat of Quesada at Los Ar cos, on the 27th. The loss of the enemy is stated at 300 killed, and a great number wounded, besides a large quantity of arms and baggage, one cannon, and a standard. Redondo and I l officers are among the slain. The whole of Quesada's corps is said to be completely routed and dispersed. Espinosa's loss is stated at 50 soldiers and ,five officers killed. The enemy, being pursued by three columns, retreated precipitutely towards Lombiere. Though the account is perhaps exaggerated, there can be nu doubt that the Constitutional troops have gained a complete victory. Quesada's troops were exhausted with fatigue, and were destitute of shoes. 'f wo expresses, just received by teen. Eguia, confirms the retreat of the Army of the Faith towards Lom biere, in the Valley of Salaxan, near the French frontier. We have also just seen two wounded offi cers, whose families are at Bayonne, and who bitterly complain of Quesada ; this General bus asked fur assistance, but it seems that money begins to grow sarce, though they publicly boast tlixt they shall receive from Paris the necessary funds. The express, which passed through here yesterday evening, con firmed the disappearance of the ministers (late nisters!) from Madrid, and the terror whii.h the • Clubbists begin to inspire. We learn this moment that an Aide-de-Camp of General Quesada has arrived with despatches fur Gen. O'Donnell, inviting him to go and take the chief command of the Army of the Faith, which the Regency at Urge! has conferred on him. Quesada is resolved to retire, and pass sonic time in France. His defeat, and the disorder of his army, are fully confirmed. The following are the latest accounts from Epi. nut:--Arta is still in the possession of the Turks. Yrevcsa, Parga, and the other fortresses on the coast, have Lk, wise. Turkish garrisons; mid on the land side aro either not blockaded at all, or very ineffi ciently. The Paella of Scutari had endeavoured to reconcile himself with the Porte, by the mediation of Omer Brione; but not receiving any favourable as surances, he euntinut.ll his armaments, and acted in concert with the Montenegrins. It is not known whaince he draws the considerable funds which he has at his disposal. The diversion made by Mauro. cordate, from Acurnania, against Thessaly, is more serious than was at first supposed. All the Greek troops, which at first seemed destined against Arta, have marelitAl towards Pyrrha, and again threaten Tricala, while the well-known I)iamanty has taken up a position at Alissona, in Upper Thessuly. All these movements harass Clwurschid Pacha, who ad vanced lately from Larissa to Thowako, with the intention of again penetrating into Livadia. A Turkish body of reserve is on the Pencus. We have no particulars of further operations in those parts. i 110101111t0, Nov. 4.—His hovel flightless the Crown Prince of Sweden passed throui;ll this city yesterday, on his return for Italy. • ERUPTION OF MOUNT I'ESCYIUS. ..,.
