Accord* to the report of an Acre on the staff of Primes Demetrios Ypsilanti,. the Isthmus of Corinth is so well for:l4 that the independents bare no fear respecting As h . /dodos, Corea, Napoli de Romania, Corinth sad Plttrat, are blocks*. All the efforts of the Geetes are COMM trend agalost Corinth, which they are ansured is the depot of the Tut:lash treasures in the Mena. It ap pears, adds the OrietatelSpeetator, which communicates this intelligence, together with a detail of the ulterior plans of she Greeks, to be the!, 011eet to attempt the possession. off. , Candi,. To, AIN who know the position *hist bland, this project of the Greeks BP *pears very wisely formed, as Caodia is the only point in which they can organise a central gem:swot for the whole of the Archipelago. Letters from Leghorn, dated the 20th of December, annonon that Prince Cantaeoseno continues to reside there, and that there have been embarked in two ports of the Mediterra nean 15,000 muskets and ten pieces of cannon, which Fare been sent to the Greeks.

It Is stated from Nuremberg, under date of the 28th alt. that according to recent iatelligence from Smyrna, all the Europeans, merchaats, traders, or private tra vellers hid prepared themselves to quit that 014%- Ihe Consuls and accredited agents of commercq had hastily embarked their effects. Every day their lives i were threatened: The late events in Asiatic Turkey, the advantages gained by the Persians, and the issue rections which have spread in different parts of Syria, have raised the exasperation of the Turks to the high est pitch. Not only t►e Greeks and Armenians, but many Pranks have been assassinated in the open day' la the street!. of Smyrna. Al the remonstrances of the Cassels have been without effect. The Turkish authorities have lost the power of restoring order. The troops make common caste with the people, and take a part in the pillage and massacre. Accounts ha►e been received from Lisbon dated 19th December. The Committee of the Constitution, to which bad bees joined the Deputies from parts beyond the seas, to examine the correspondence of the Prince Royal with the King, his father, bad, In the Sit ting of the 18th presented its Report by U. Moore, its President. The Committee bestows the highest praises on the conduct of the Primes Royal ; sad as to the plans which he proposes for the tranquillity of the country, the Committee thinks that It ought to make known to the King that the Cortes have taken, and will continue to take, all the measures necessary fur the attainment of that desirable end. The opinion of the Committee was adopted with the liveliest de. meestrations of joy ; and the reading of the letters were demanded, which was immediately complied with by M. bloom In the preceding sitting the Corte had resumed the discussion of the articles of the Co.. stitotion relative to the organisation of the •Conseil of State.

Amidst the confusion of voices, the Keeper of the Seals with difficulty got through the last paragraph of article 3, which is as follows: • "The pleading shall be public, widens the Court should consider that publicity dangerous to order and morality.—(Violeot interruptions un the left.)

No foreigner can obtain a passport without a previous certificate from the agent of his Goverment. This applies more particularly to those countries which have agents here; and no vessel can be admitted to entry or to bear the flag of the United States within this province, but each as Lave a certificate from the agent that they are entitled to do so. Mr. Forbes lately detected a vesxel false papers and exposed her to this Government ; in conesquenee of which she was seised, and probably will be con demned. Availing himself of this circumstance, he applied for the last mentioned regulation, which was immediately granted. Few -of oar &gams leave been influenced by a stronger sense of duty than Mr. Forbes, and no one has been treated with more respect by this Government.
