Vo6tartot• LONDON, MONDAY, OCTOBER 25. Three o'clock, p. mt. We have received the Paris papers to the 41st instant. The intelligence contained in them is of little moment. it is stated among the articles of foreign news, that the Emperor Alexander and the Grand Duke Nicholas arrived at Warsaw cn the 3d Inst.; and the Pt :es are sanguine in their belief that the consequences of this Imperial visit %%ill be highly beneficial to their country. A revolution has occurred in the Ministry of the Ottoman Porte; and it was executed in the sudden, showy, and meladramatic style, which so often dis tinguishes the movements of arbitrary -power. Ilia Highness announced a grand levee to be held; the Ministers repaired to it ; and before you could say 44 Jack Robinson" the Mufti {or Lord Chief Justice of Turkey) was turned out of (Ace. short time afterwards three other Ministers were deposed—the Grand Master of the Caremonica, Minister of the Interior, and Grand Marshal. The poor Grand Admiral was accused of •mations crimes, sentenced, stneigled, anA thrown into the sea. The bow-string is yeqr only "radical" at Constantinople; it re. terms (not the Parliament, it is true, but) the Mi nistry, beyond tilt relapsing, and now and then'• the sultan himself: A Dutch mail inthrms us, that the' Belgic•Legiit /attire was opened by commission on the 18th, at the Hague. The opening speech presents no striking isages, nor any unexpected topics. The spirit of peace which animates the several Governments of Europe is dwelt upon with becoming satisfaction ; the ti , w code of laws is described as about to be laid before the States General ; the economy of Govern ment is much boasted of; the impossibility of r.alueing the military establishment is lamented; the good harvest, extending manufactures, and im proving colonies, are selected us subjects of cor4;ra tulatiett; as d, notwithstanding the de‘:ree to which trade has suffered, the general condition of the Naliellands is affirmed to be such as leaves their inhabitants nothing to envy in that of other coun tries, and nothing to grieve at in their own. A private letter from Paris says—" The Princess of Wales, who was at Fountainbleau on Tuesday the 19th, has taken the road to Dieppe, as it is bail, without passing by Paris. It is stated that the I,strign Governor of Milan granted her a passport Without knowing her, thinking he was giving it to her maid of honour ; and it apwars, that in this manner her Highness travels, whose whale 1 fc is marked by episodes more or less romantic." Letters from Jamaica, dated Sept. 2, state, that the yellow fever has been severely felt in that isluod. The troops in particular have suffered much. A few days previous to the date of the letters, Colonel Hill, of the 50th regiment, the oldest person in the corps, and who had been 47 years in it, fell a sacrifice to his humanity. It is said that it arose from the men refusing to act as nurses to their comrades in the beapital, thr all those who had done so had invariably died. After tome pause, four private's of the grena diers offered their services, which were of course aceepted. Two of them in a short time becanae•vie tints to the dresulful.effects of the pestilence, when the other two - instantly withdrew their te4istance. This hopeless state of things did not long remain, for Cul. Hill exclaimed, " Then, my men, we must change our coats; shoe cannot find a man in my regiment to attend a sick soldier, I must do it my self." Many days did not elapse ere this noble sui nelednffieer was hiruseli attacked xith this dreadful malady, which terminated with his death. FL was universally respected, and Lis rouaina were fol lowed to the grave ell the officers snd men t f the regiment whose health permitted their doing so. MANCTIESTFII, OCT. 20.-1 am sorry to you, that the italkals intend to call another meeting here on the Ist of. Noveruber. They are 44fil'elY procuring signatures to a requisition.

PROGRESS OF THE BRITISH SYSTEM OF EDUCA TION IN SPAIN. In the ear!" part of the year 1817, Capt. Kearney. an officer from Spain arrived in chic country. and attended the central School of the British and Foreign Scho .1 S.icitiy. in the Borough-road. Impressed with the great moral benefits to be derived from the diffusion of this effective system of instruction. he determined to acquire a competent knowledge of the plan, with the view of introducitig it iniu the Spjsntih du ttt itt ins, where the education of the lower orders bad beeu hithei to •h neglected. On the return' oi C.iptain Kearney to Mad rid, he succeeded in establishing a school in that city, under the kind patronage, and at the sole expense of the Duke del Infante) and several other patrio ic noble men.

On the 30th of March last, the king and QUCCII honoured the eehool with their presence, and were so struck with the isatiothil adeau age that would risen folio the eticourLgeutent of simil4r institutions, that his was pleased to issue a royal decree, authorising the establishment of schools on the 1.411 C r4terian system. throlighout the kingdom.
