From the correspondence of sever beaker.' houses in our city, it would appear that Russia persists ire her demand that the civil and religious rights of the Greeks should be guaranteed for the future, in which she is supported 14 the other Powers. It remains to he known the Porte shall be persuaded to listen to it. There is again some talk of an armed mediation. The Porte must concede mach more to the Greeks if it wishes to 'come to a definitive arrangement 'with Russia. The work of M. Goerres, entitled " £wrope and Revolution," has just been prohibited in the Prussian dominions, as it had previously been in Austria.

A great part of the Asiatic troops, it is said , is advancing upon The.s•dy and Epirus. The Grand Seignor is extremely dissatisfied with the Janis varies, who oppose the introduction of the Euro ken exerhise; he has coined o great slumber of them to he beheaded, and appears determined to compel them to submit to the new military ►e gulations. It is a bold eutterprize under existing circumstances, but the Sultan Mahmoud is of an inflexible character. 'fete only point at which the affairs of the In surgents present a fueourahle aspect is Epirus and Albania, as several Albanisn Bey+ have joined the party of Ali Pitch*. The Greeks have taken three Turkish vessels in the Gulf of Cat:Hindu. ; they were laden with arms and stores for the ()mimeo army. It is affirmed that 65 Eogli•h officers, dressed like Turks, and the Jews who purchased the arms at Corfu, nese found oil board. The Fsielisli have been sent to Hydra, in order •.a be gisrti sip to the Government at Cerro ; the Jews weir drowned'. 01111 1) equipage. In the statement's of individual outrages *lnch we have seen in the Irish Papers, , there were incidents occasionally mentioned well calculated to cast an air id' mystery over the state of the south of Ireland which is some minds must have been ineffibly delightful ; and it was tin doubt to heighten the effect-of the picture, and to add increased te►rore to the awe which tho►e.accounts were supposed to inspire, that a learned writer in a Morning Ministerial Paper united in the close bonds of Jacobin fraternity the banditti of Limerick with the Carbonari of Nipleo. We were-assured that the face of the country was to all military pur poses covered with troops ; that co-operating cordons intersected the disturbed districts in the counties of Litnetick, Cork, and Clare; and that a coo. stunt intercourse was maintained between the se veral posts by strong picquets patrolling the roads. Notwithstanding - these precautions, we were how ever assured that even within these military lines bodies of between two and three hundred armed men could assemble, and without any interruption roam about the country Juristic not only the nights, but sometimes even during the day time, and at tack houses in their search fur arms. These fellows too, we were informed, were wholly unlike any other robbers that they so far checked their almost habitual passion for ardent liquors as to refuse them when offered, and that their chief contented himself with water; that they re funded money alien the sum offered was greater than they thought necessary ; that they spoke vaguely of some great project which they had in hand and must pursue; and that one of their chiefs becoming almost seaitimental, lamented " with a sigh," while in the act of robbing • gentlernau's house, that they had ever undertaken their present nightly enterprise. Now if all those representations be credited they must, if put to gether, produce ■n impression to this effect :—that the number of persons implicated in the existing disturbances is very considerable; that they are pur suing some political object of great and alarming magnitude ; that there is established among them • Council, or Junta, which exacts and obtains the obedience of the rest ; that this Council has orga nised a system of hostility to the Government, the means of pursuing which are so nicely calculated, that even the amount of contribution which should be paid by every individual has been already ascer tained; and finally, that the principle of obedience is so strictly enforced that it has among a lawless rabble of the county of Limerick superseded the love of money and of drink. The mysteries in the case are—the objects of the insurgents, the naineJ of their Commanders, the seat of their Cou n cil, and by what power of magic their numerous parties of armed men have contrite(' to escape the übserva tion of the military and civil power of the country. The acknowledgment now made in some of the Dish Papers, that they have been deceived in the com munications made to them, and that many circum stances were greatly exaggerated, affects, we are l►eraoaded, all the mysterious parts of the previous accounts. A score of desperate ruffians might at any time disturb and alarm an extensive tract of country, and we can easily imagine how the self-in terest of some, the absurd love of the marvellous in others, aided by the fears of the timid and credu lous, may concur in magnifying the powers and distorting the purposes of the distutbera. The Pari% Papers of Saturday last have arrived. The Chamber of Deputies proceeded on Friday to the election of • fifth caudidate for the office of Piesident, when M. tie VAUBLANC was elected.

Miss BLANII, late of the Haymarket theatre, appeared on these boards 1.4 night, in the part of Don Giovanni. The character, it appears, was undertaken at a very short notice, in consequence of the indiiposition of Madame Varrats. No apology, however, was necestairy for the performance, winch Wad as happy to all respects as could be wished. Miss BLAKE has so much animation and seeming jueissance of existence as firma well for the bitilestine of this Anglicised Itahau. Her singing too chimes in admirably with whatever there is of imagination or fancy in the charac ter and the music. In many of the sits site must have been mistaken by the uninitiated for Madame VIiSTILIS, from the resemblance that exists iu the torte of their several voice*. She was repeatedly encored, and sustained the pait throughout with a skill and address betosid her age and term of professiton4 experience. Mr.. BLAND was culled on to ripest the burlesque of " Yone Fanny has never been false she declares." which song she gave with such touching expression as wholly to stopeod, during its performance, the humour designed in it, and to make the audience . feel it in the reality of irlaiiiiire ',teethe's. The fire-works went off with great bnllisucy, and the. audience separated with entire satisfaction at the amusements. COYENT-GARDEN. This theatre was fully and respectably attended last night, the performances being Nam/el, and the Circe of The Citizen. In the tragedy, Mr. lona°, whose perfurmance of the yonthfiel and accomplish ed Done has long been looked upon es ills master piece, delighted the audience by again appearing in that character. To point out the several ex cellencies of his representation would be to enn literate every ►triking beauty with which SHAN *Fumes delineation of Hamlet abounds, and to swell this notice into an inordinately ela borate and lengthened critique. It must therefore suffice to say that it es long since this melancholy, thoughtful, hesitating, sentimental, and reflective Prince has met with so becoming, dignified, and efficient • representative; and that the prof:mod attention and dtseriminating applause which it exacted from the audience was a prond and grate ful tribute to its exalted merits. The character of " the fair Ophelia" was confided to Miss M. Tata, •rid never was the interesting delicacy, the essential purity of that exquisitely touching creitinre of SHAKSPEARE'S finest conception more sweetly and faithfully pourtrayed. The innate modesty of her manner in the conlesaion and recital to her father of her secret interviews with Hamlet, and his declara tions of affection fur her, was truly charming. The plaintive tone in which her answers to Hamlet's denial that he had ever loved her were given, the gracefully retiring action, and saddening ex pression of her drooping countenance and downcast eye which accompanied them, gave to this passage of her performance a character of disappointed ten derness and sweetly-mournful resignation, of the deepest interest and most finished excellence. Her speech and act' in the triad scenes were touched with the mw► melting pathos; her singing seemed to flow from that inspiration which springs out of the deepest recesses of the heart overwhelmed in the luxury of woe; and the high-wrought grace fulness and powerfully expressive effect of her last attitude and exit, with her right hand pressing her basket of flowers to her heavily-sobbing heart, and her left hand behind her neck supporting the head thrown buck, with the face up-turned in the fixed game of absorbed feeling, presented a beautiful study fur a sculptor •s a design for a stutue of melancholy tioashires. The whole of this fits• cinating fount' actress's performance filled the au dience with unmixed delight, and called down the most rapturous expressions of approbation. Mrs. FAuciT played the Queen with beconmig dignity mid energy. Mr. EMERY gave the eccentricities of the Grurr-digger in his own inimitable ►tyle of drone'' , cud broad humour; and Mr. ABBOTT played Luerles with gentlemanly ease.

LONDON, WEDNESDAY. NovsmaEL 21, 1821. It begins, we find, to be tardily confessed in soma of the Pipers of the south of Ireland, that the ac counts published of alleged acts of violence cm muted in that part of the kingdom have been in many instances exaggerated. The public credulity has been abused either by persons who had some sinister interests to pursue, or by others who, without being actuated by motives morally reprehensible, could not resist the infatuation of telling something whiff) mi ght excite • feeling of general anxiety. The narrators of great or singular events seem, fur the moment, to acquire amidst their circles an ion. portance, second wily to that which they assign to the heroes of their tales, and hence arises too fre quently that disposition to strain and exaggerate circumstances which the lenity of society familiarly reproves by the ludicrous designation of " drawing a long bow."
