The only objection to theme worki, that Lam aware of, is their expense and their extent; with regard to the first, it must be remem bered, that the Isthmus is a frontlet, that a frontier must be fortified, and that fortifieations cannot be constructed without Resist cost; het when we con sider the importance of the plebe, that. squared stones are on the spot, that fiat qUarrierve un tte . spot, that labour is cheap in Gresee, Metals twit/ would be employed, which would+. labour with the enthhsiastn of men who struggle nr freedom, and mho feel they are working for their lives ; and that fine forests are at hand to furnish timber, which . would cost nothing but the l a b or of Idling it when these matter. are considered. 1 maintain tip* the cost will be comparatively-mein& 404 lively very trifling, end the posittee expense is, is the present state of Ohms, the important considera tion ; in fact, there is nothing to pay for hut labour, and those who labour would be content to do so far food, of which a Greek is satisfied with very little. It is justice to the unhappy Greeki to say, that is such a cause, man, worn in, and child, would la bour without any reward: they have fixed their longing eyes upon freedom, and if they were put to the work the fortifications %could rice like magic, by the force of their enthusiastic patriotism. Never were works raised with less money, or in less time, than those would be. They who have never bees slaves do Dot at first form a correct idea of what slaves can do who labour for liberty. We calm• late by the steady progress of a persevering Eng lishman, who would do the work of ten Greeks in the general course of labour ; but rocks and earth would fly like chaff under the strokes of the Greeks, when labouring against the Turks, and seeing a pe riod to their slavery in the completion of theic work. The next objection is to the extent of fortifica tions, which demand so large • garrison. 1 think a fair view of the subject will remove this. The first line would consist of fortified positions li in Mount Geranion, and the extent trifling; this them we pass over. The second is the shortest line across the Isar.'" mus, sod would not require a garrison *bile the fortified position of Mount Ger•oion was main. Mined ; but if that was abandoned, the same troops would easily furnish u garrison to defend • line of rampart only three and a I►alf miles in length. Lastly. if driven from this, to the third line, still the army would not have the whole length to line with troops, se nearly the whole length of the rocky ridge, and great part of the Acrocorinthus bring scarped, would require nothing but a chain of sen tinels, being too steep and high for escalade. Thus the defence would be reduced t• a remit of about the same length as that of the second line, and the garrison may be estimated at 15,000 men. This shows, that in case of emergency, a small force could secure the post; but I by no means allow that it can ever be placed upon the footing of com►uon garrisons; I assert, that a whole people will defend it, and therefore that the extent of its works will signify nothing. The Isthmus. of midi is a frontier, and a frontier of less than four miles ought to present ►:o point of weakness, and defy all approch, but by regular siege. The garrison of Corinth ought to be the army of Greece, and every defensive position between the Danube and Mount Geraniun ought to be considered as an out-work ; for I think, in rase of reverses, the best line of retreat for the Greek army, at all times, and whether from the attack of Austria, Russia, or Turkey, will be on tl►e Isthmus of Corinth. If Greece be master of Asia Minor, Corinth end the capital would both become bases on which to retreat, because the strength of the army would enable it safely to be divided, each division carrying on the war as a distinct nation, but under one general-in-chief. The enemy would find it • vast undertaking to carry on two such sieges at once; the force of Asia Minor pouring into the defence of Constantinople, and the king. dour of the Moren feeding that of the Isthmus; yet if he did not besiege both at once, is greet army would sally forth from the one, and produce a diversion in favour of the other. I may add a third place of great importance, called the Dards rielles of Lepanto, which should be fortified; these twrecapes. commanding the entrance of the Gulf of Corinth, are not so essential on this account. as that they would enable the army retreating to the Isthmus to detach a force into Albania to defend the poises of that country, secure the left flank of the retreating army. sod hang on the right of the enemy : now if this corps had not a secure place of embarkation at Lepanto, it would either tisk being cut off, or be unable to act with effect against the enemy, who would have a shorter line of march to the Isthmus. It is to be observed, that as the communication ' between Constantinople, the Isthmus, and the Dardanelles of Lepanto, would remain open by sea, the limos of the army could he collected on any one of those points, provided that the fleet of the Greeks was superior, which it would probably be, to that of either Austria, or Russia; and in all future ware, supposing succers to attend the pre sent striggle,Greece would probably have Etiglaad or France so alliance with her; for whether Russia attempts to extend her territory in Asia or Europe, she would be opposed by England or Frstioe; and Greece would be close on her flank, supported by one or both of these empires. Russia and Greece will never be allies, because the former will not willingly allow her fleets to be locked up in the Black Sea, and certainly endeavour to make her self a naval p.►wer by the conquest of Greece. In endeavouring to show how trifling would be the ex tent of the fortiticstions I propose, compared tee' the numbers who would be in arms for their de fence, I have insen s ibly been drawn into a digres sion, shearing their importance to Greece in this and my principle, .. point verging drawn to the north-aces/ern frontier, would bo. ° lll , lines of operations on which the different amps of the Corinthian tirsny would retire; sud Con stantinople would be another. focus, from which liner would part, in like manner, to the mirth. eastern frontier, and on which the corps of the !At, destined to defend Constantinople, would rehire ; there can therelose be no doubt, I think, of two thimp • lat. That GreecAnd Asia Minor would furpisk a larger force than could act in one mass, and lhal half such mass, if forced to retreat, would tarnish troops enough to garrison mach inner extensive works than I have proposed for Corinth, and have * lace disposalile force lwaides, l•• , 1•1_ . i t • • , I• 1• JI • • ', 4 • 6 1_ . ":t.- the army of the latter ought to retire to Ceriatb 3 and tnerrly throw a garrison into the capital. As the Greek has now neither Asia Minor nor Constuntinople, the Isthmus is of more import ance, and will render the Morro as asvlum for all who • fly from Turkish vengeance; iuJeed, if the Greeks would abandon the rest of Greece at once, and colonize w the Peninsula, even before any for tification but the simple wall should be thrown 1' arms the Whom', such an influx of persons welder gine the Morea a population capable of resisting' the Turks fur more effectually than in their pre..l sent dispersed state, and, as I have before observed, • they could iu a week construct a work across the: Isthmus, and defend it with pikes against the at-i tack of the whole Turkish army. A p.r p olatio• ' thus concentrated, nod rendered desperate by the conviction, that either extermination or victory is their alternative, would also produce certain sums . of money in taxes, which, however small, would be of great service. FOI?&IGN INTELLIGENCE. LISBON MAIL. • 1 LISBON, OCTOBER 21. CORTES, Or:Tonga 21. In this sitting a project of a Decree, proposed by the Committee of Public Instruction, was read, to enact that a copy of every book primed in the kingdom shall be deposited in the public library, periodicals are included, but they need only be delivered every three months. To be read a second time. M. Borges Carneiro made a proposition for abo lishing the Order of the Knights of Malta, which he prefaced by a long speech on the happiness of countries whose inhabitants consist of productive classes, that is, such as subsist by agriculture, commerce, or manufactures. contrasted to the misery of a nation where a great part of the people live by public employments or ecclesiastical bene fices, that is, at the expense of the productive classes. Such where they are numerous, do nothing, Or no thing useful, or what is only a vexation to their fellow-citizens : " I call them drones, legal va grants, swarms of troublesome flies. Aral what shall I say of those who live on commanderies, akaidarius, and other favours graciouvly conferred ? I call those things legal robberies and sanctified idleness." The orator quoted Switzerland and the United States of North America us u contrast : proposing that all such useless burdens should be diminished, and that the Cortes should begin with the Order of Malta and the Corutnanderies belonging to it. The orator fully recognised the utility of the Order when first established, for the purpose of attending to the hospital at Jerusalem, and the valour with which the Knights had sub sequently combated the Mussehnen. But all is changed ; there is no hospital at Jerusalem, nor pil grimages to the Iluly bind ; our do we now judge it conformable with the stirit of Christianity to coin ' bat the believers in the Koran with arms. We have a regular army and navy to defend ourselves against the attacks of other Powers, whatever be their faith, and from pirates. It is not necessary to mix up these things with religion, which consists in prayer, patience, and doctrine. Tlie Order of Malta was in fact abolished by the occupation of the island, first by the French, and afterwards by the English; and though the re-establishment of it was mention ed in the basis of the Treaty of Amiens. yet the Treaty of Parts decided to the contrary. He there fore moved— l. the Order of St. John of Jerusalem be abolished in Portugal, as in the rest of Europe. 2. That the Commauderies shall remain to the present holders fur their life, and then be applied to the payment of the national debt. To be read a second time in another sitting. In the same sitting the second reading was conti nued of the opinion of the Ecclepiastical Committee, respecting certain cases in which it would be requi site to apply to Rome. A very great debate arose on the first article, which was relative to the appli cation to the Pope for u bull to suppress certain convents. Many members were of opinion that no application was necessary, and that the Cortes were competent to proceed to such measures of reform without any bull. Other. thought that, even al lowing the civil power to hove the right, it w 44, Gambino woe read, statiag, that hewing et:lifted ito installation to the - districts (Comotcas), that- ,f Guises refused to recognize its authority ; that, consequence, troops hid berusent, with iustrucuoni nut to employ violence, but to make them retort' to their duty.

[Concluded from our Paper of Saturday last.l if the Greek. like to try the experiment, there iv one to whom they might offer their crown with advantage: great would be the opposition to him, but urrat also would be his support. Austria's whole ►trength, the Greeks to a man; Louis XVIII. to get rid of a rival ; thousands of veterans from France stud Italy; the prayers of those two nation., who cherish a fond remembrance of their Emperor and King; thus seconded, who would be able to o►ertltrow the Young Napoleon° but as this would kindle a war with other Powers, he whose fears made him twice abandon his daughter, will hardly act with boldness in the cause of her son. As the Isthmus of Corinth is a place of so much importance to the Greeks at all times, and parti cularly at this moment, it may be well to give an opinion on its means of defence, though without entering into an engineer's detail of lines and an gles, which cannot he done without a good plan, and on the spot. IVitlt this memorial I have given ■ sketch of the Isthmus, •hewing its shape, and the great command which the Acrocorinthus, ■nd the ridge of heights running front that citadel to Keekri,inxiiitain over the ground forming the lath mus. Mount Geranion also is very high. The Isthmus is three and a half English miles in breadth, the surface is partly high and rocky, and partly low and slimly, but the hiaileest part has not hero calculated at more titan sixty yards 'above the level of the sea. and this is only in the middle of the Isthmus, which sinks gradually on each side ; mach of the ground is very little above the level of the sea; the whole of the Isthmus is covered with ruins, among which are found vast quantities of squared stones, cut from quarries nearer Corinth : from this circumstance all masonry would be easily executed, and the Greeks may, without difficulty, throw up a bastioned line with demi-lunes from sea to sen, the scarpe and counter-scarpe of which would be rivetted with huge 'square stones, so that by deviating from the principles of fortification, in consequence of the ignorance of the Turks as eaglets era and artillerists, the Greeks might give lees thickness to their ramparts and parapets, and greater height, trusting to the massive stones of the revetment for resisting the weight of the earth, and the guns of the enemy ; •n escalade from a Turkish arusy is inure to be feared than a breach. By those mean•, a fortification of such strength might be constructed in less than a week, as would defy the whole Turkish Empire. The Sovereign, whose arms were baffled by the tereglioofJosnnina, would not attempt the attack of a front like this, the lines of which would be perfectly scientific ; whereas the seraglio of Joatmina is a mere high wall and ditch, and not constructed in the principles of modern fortification. Having once secured them+elves by suds a work, the Greeks might, as they would have plenty of hands, set to work, and cut the I.thacits, an operation of no great labour compared to its magnitude and iml ortance. for the lock appeats in null 'duces composed of decayed stasis, and in every part of a scaly nature, and easily removed; added to this, • vast cut has been already attempted, and although not down to the level of the sea, it would prove of greet advantage, being so much of the work done. When the Greeks have run a strong line of bastions across the Isthmus, and before they attempt to cut the meal, it would be advisable to throw up field works in the defiles of Mount Ger:lotion, which are tremendous, and would form the first Ilse of defence; it would be short, and of great ►trength; the second use would be the wall of the Isthmus ; the third would be drawn from the cistern extremity of the ridge above Kenkri, to the Acrueortuthus (which last should be corn "sloe!! fortified as a place of the first order) ; and again, from that to the ancient harbour, which, if Amin' worthrof being restored, might be covered by a lin-tress that would limn an outwork to the Acrocorissilitue Tbe'rear of this line on the ridge, and in the plain between the Acrocritiothnistid the sea, might 'be secured by geld works at a future period; the point im'wesli•tely in question is to secure the Isthmus from being - forced from the eastern aide. The extent of this line, from Kenkri to the harbour of Corinth. isabout eight miles, but this rocky ridge may he rendered impassable nearly its whole length by scarping, and ■ para pet might run the whole way, with a pod road hrhiud it, to conceal and aid the rapid march of columns from one part to the other. The Acrocorinthus is itself a lock which has such precipitous sides, that being said to contain good water, I .should think it might be rendered im pregnable.
