The intelligence from Turkey, in the French Papers which arrived last night, is of considerable importance. The discontent of the Porte, it is said, increases towards this country, and conferences have taken place between the Rats F•FFENDI and Mr. Tuateen, the British Charge d'Affaires, which have been conducted in a very angry aa , cl even menacing tone on the part of the former. In consequence of the spirited manner in which Mr. TURN L R vindicated his country's honour, a note was subsequently ti.ansmitted in more moderate terms, but insisting on the recal of Sir FREDRICK ADAM, Admiral NEALF, and Com tr odore Hamivrox, all of whom the Turkish Minister considers as open and active enemies to the SULTAN. The period has returned for the election of the members of the Greek Government and Legislature. It was understood that YPSILANTI would be appointed President of the ienate, and that CoLocorao xi would be placed at the head of the Executive Department. The Etoik notices tie report that Austria intended to establish a cordon conitaire in Dalmatia and Friuli, against the plague which prevails in some parts of the Mores. A German Paper nixerves, that if the fact be true, Russia also will be thliged in self defence to adopt a similar course, and edvance her troops towards Bessarabia sad IVallachia. The Echo du Midi contains the following:—" IVe are as cured that there is ahout to be formed in France a zornpany vf Body Guards for his CATHOLIC MAJESTY, composed , :f 300 men, all foreigners, but principally French. It is :bought that this company will be organised, mounted, armed, and equipped in a city of the south, probe b!), at Carcassone. This measure will not be an innova von. Spain bad, in the days of her prosperity, Walloon Guards, composed of Frenchmen, as we know." [from the Eioik, dated AVedneeday.l NIJIMAIUUIIO, SEPT.n. . While the Turkish Government at present places all its cond. (lance in the Austrian Intemuncio, and endeavours to meet all its wishes, it shows a distrust of the French Ambassador, because he 1711 not given satisfactory answers respecting the great number of peewit officers in the service of the Greeks, and the assistance sent ;•.! the latter; but the Porte shows itself much more incensed : , nrinst the English Charge d'Affaires, Mr. Turner, who is at pre - •-•I in a very disagreeable situation. He was lately invited to a conference with the Reis Effendi, who has the reputation of a moderate and pretty obliging man, but this time he represented to Mr. Turner, by his Dragoman, in harsh terms, the hostile conduct of England, with which he bitterly re. nroached him. It is said that he informed the English Minister of Or personal discontent of the Sultan with his conduct, and with Lit having constantly answered that the English Government could rot hinder private individuals from going to Greece, from entering i , to the service; or from sending assistance to the Greeks, but that • n itself and its agents, it übsericd the strictest impartiality. _ The Reis Effendi, it is said, declared to Mr. Turner that all o•nse assertions were incorrect ; that the Sultan had proofs that the ( -I ',RnOt of the lonian I,lcr, the English Admiral in the Mediter rl.lolllt), and Commodore Hamilton, commanding the English qua. Aron in the Archipelago, favoured the insurgents in every possible , vanner, to the greet prejudice of the Turks ; that such conduct was a vildstion of all the principles of neutrality, and rendered the I.'ablnet of London an accomplice in the insurrection of the Greeks; ;':at if these grievances were not redressed, the Porte would be .bliged to use reprisals against England )lr. Turner. it is said, answered the Reis Effendi, chiefly on the ' , Atter point, with great energy, and declared to his that the Porte cs been more than once indebted for the preservation of its exist. zr to the Crown slf England, and that the latter was rot to be in. enidated by threats. It is af f irmed thut a rote was afterward, drawn up in a style of tneduation, and presented to Jr. Turner, in Ibich, however, the Porte insists on the fecal of the Governor of tfic lonian Islands, of Admiral Neale, and Commodore Hamilton. 1, PARIS.

It is noticed as an historical fact. that no Queen has honoured Norway with a visit since 1733.

This was a holyday at the Bank ; but still considerable business was done in Consols at rather declining prices, and the cause for the depression was attributed to the heavy settling day that is anticipated in the Foreign Market to morrow. Consols opened at 8811, and closed at 871 buyirs. This circumstance operated also unfavourably on the Foreign Market, as it was natural that it would do ; but the attention of jobbers was chiefly drawn to the settle ment of their balances. Spanish Securities. drooped more than any other stock, the Old being done at 161 r Greek Scrip fluctuated between 22 and 234 discount ; Brazilian ditto, 81 91 discount ; Mexicali ditto, 10/ 11 discouut ; and Guateinata ditto, 4 discount. The Share Market, from the same cause that affected the Foreign Market, was languid all day. Very little business was done in Mincing-lane this morning. The'Bridgei. Leslie, has arrived from Bombay at Liver pool. She sailed on the 16th April, and from S:. Helena on the Sid August. The Hero has also arrived at the same port from Bombay. She left the Mauritius on the 23d June and St. Helena 13th August. The Corsair has an chored off Falmouth from Singapore, from whence she sailed on the 25th April. She came from Batavia on the 15th May and St. Helena 29th July. A letter by the Corsair states, that the Amelia and Ann, Aquila, and Harriette were loading at Singapore, and would sail im mediately. A letter from Bombay, dated the 14th May, says, that General Ouchterlony had resigned, and that the Sinde were entering Cutch with 20,000 men, and in that case more troops would be wanted. The same letter also speaks of the great want of troops in India. We have seen another letter from Zante, dated the 2(1 September, which states, that the affairs of the Greeks have been greatly improving for the last month, which was to be attributed to the bravery of the Greek squadron. A letter from Madrid of the 15th September has the following passage :—" Every thing is very quiet here, and we experience but little of what is said to be passing else where. Thcre is to be sure a want of confidence, a scarcity of money, and diminution of consumption." In the sanguinary re-actions which bare desolated Spain 'since the restoration two men have signalised themselves by a ferocity of Which even the Spanish character furnishes few examples. The first is Chaperon, who always pre sided at the executions. and even sometimes assisted the ex ecutioner ; the other is Rutfino Gonzales, grand purveyor to the military commission and public executioner. These two sanguinary men have been implicated in Bessieres' plot and recently banished from Madrid. Chaperon has been sent into the south of Spain and Gonzales to Pampeluna. The latter has arrived at his destination, and if may rely on the Echo du Midi the following is an account of his re ception :—" Ruffino Gonzales is at large ; on the road he was escorted by two police guards ; he is now lodged at the Carros Hotel. The authorities of Pampeluna and people of all classes have eagerly visited him. The Spanish Royalists will not forget the scrcices rendered to legiti macy by M. Gonzales. It is only the Revolutionists of Spain who can be against that estimable man." One may judge, both by the proceedings of the authorities, and the welcome given by the fanatics to a man bailed with public execration, and under the displeasure of Government, of the spirit which reigns in the provinces of the Peninsula ; and of the little effect produced by the execution of Bes sieres on the Carlist party.—Courier Francais. The monument raised to the memory of the late Empress Josephine, by the care of her children, Prince Eugene, and his sister Hortense de Beauhsrnais, Duchess of St. Lcu, has just been finished, ant Wednesday the 29th of this month (last Wednesday) is fixed for the celebration, in the parochial church of Ruel, of the funeral ceremony of the exhumation of her mortal remains, which for ten years have lain its a provisional vault of the church.—f ottrrier Francais. We learn from Madrid that M. Gordon, secretary of the Council of Castile, has been set at liberty, and M. Cabo niarde retains his portfolio in spite of M. Zea's efforts. M. Caloniarde is supported by the Princesses of Portugal, who have great influence over the mind of King Ferdi nand.--Galiqncalis Messenger. A letter from Liana, dated June sth, states, that some dissatisfaction had manifected itself among the officers of the garrison of Callao, and that a Colonel and a Captain have been shot in consequence, and many others placed in close confinement. A letter dated Buenos Ayres, August 3, states that the Brazilian squadron, anchored in the outer Roads, consists of a ship of 36 guns, one of 22, Iwo brigs of 18 guns, one of 14, two schooners, and three gun-boats. They have not committed any act of hostility, but board vessels that arrive or sail. HAYTI.—In the last advice. from Port-au-Prince, it wee stated that the purchase of the independence of Hayti was a very unpopular proceeding in some parts of 'the island, and that the President, with the whole of his Staff; and a considerable force, had suddenly set off for Cape Hayden. it appears by the accounts received yesterday, and which were dated the 4th ult., that this movement was prompted by intelligence, secretly conveyed, of an alarm ing insurrection being about to break out in that place. The decisive step, however, taken by Boyer, effectually checked the spirit of revolt, and restored the place to tran quillity. He had returned to Port-au-Prince, bringing back with hint General Profete, the leader of the meditated revolt, in chains, together with two of his aides-de-camp, and several other officers. A Morning Paper, remarkable for its knowledge In most things, whether it be the history of ancient Greece, or the secret movements of mod e rn C a bi nets , h as b een for some days past exceedingly sagacious on the subject of Lord Strangford's repeated conferences with his Majesty's Mi nister* on the affairs of Greece. We happen to know, however, first, that Lord Strangford has never in his life assisted at a Cabinet Council ; secondly, that at the time when those Councils, at which lie was represented to have so assiduously attended, took place, his Lordship was not even in London, but passing some days at the seat of Sir George Warrander ; thirdly, that Lord Strangford had no official communications whatever with his Majesty's Mi nisters since the week previous to Mr. Canning s departure from London ; and fourthly, that since Mr. Canning's re turn, Lord Strangford has not yet ever seen or spoken to Mr. Canning !. An accurate estimate may thus be formed of the value of the information on Cabinet ruttier* with which the paper in question is sometimes in the practice of indulging its readers.—Courier. ~- - . THE BRITISH PRESS. GERMAN PAPERS. The Amstrian Observer of the 11th September contains the following letter from Corfu, dated August 23. We trust that whet is there stated of the situation of Redschid Pacha will not be confirmed ; indeed it is completely at variance with other accounts which have reached this country . COTIFIT. AUGUST 23. Whatever may have been the joy which the pretended raising of the siege of 11losiolonghi had caused the Greeks and their friends hire, it was easy to foresee that It would be of short duration. A Greek, who arrived here yesterday from ohe neighbonohood of Miasolonghi, reports that the Seraskier has concentrated his troops, which amount to 25,000 men ; that he is more than ever ocenmed In pressing the siege of that plan, and that if he has not already made a fresh assault lie will certainly make it very speedily. • The fleet of the Capitan Podia. consisting of twelve frigates, thirteen corvettes, and fifteen brigs and schooners, after having quitted, on the sth of August, the waters of 51issolonghi, directed us course towards the south, for the purpose, it is said, of escorting the fifth expedition of Egyptian troops from Cendia to the Mores. A division of fourteen sail, viz.—one corvette, four brigs, four schooners, and live transports, remains in the Gulf of Patras. On the 6th of August the Greek sqoadmil, order the orders of Sac. tour's. consisting of thirty.seven sail, including fifteen flre-ships, left the waters of Mistolonghi for the south, and on the 10th another division of eight sail, commanded by Maas, took the same course. DUTI'II PAPERS. STOCKHOLM, SEPT. 13. A emirler hes lately arrived from St. Potersburgli with despatches to the Russian Legation, which are said to relate to the sale cf the ships of war by our Government, and which some said were intended for Greece, and others for South America. Count Sechteleo, the Russian Ambassador, has set out this morning to join the King at Christiania. The Chancellor of Justice has just brought an action against the Argus for having published an article, taken from foreign journals. relative to the notes that have passed between our Cabinet and the Ambassadors of *pain and Russia, respecting the sale of the above-mentioned ships. FRANKFORT, SEPT. 21. News from Zante of the 4th September, confirms the statement that the Greeks are preparing at hydra an expedition of 3,000 men to make a landing in Crete, where the (:reek population has flan in many districts, and the garrisons left by Ibrahim are much weakened. There was a report at Napoli di Romania that the 3,000 Egyptians entrenched at A whoa& being cut off from all commu nication. have been annihilated by Colocotroni. This news, which Is very probable, has not been of communicated. VIENNA, SEPT. 17. It stems to be the firm persuasion here, that the step taken by the Greeks in applying to the Cabinet of St. James's, will have no other result than that of drawing still closer the ties which have for ue time subsisted between the Greeks and the English ; that it Is no part of the policy of the latter to interfere with the in dependence of Greece, though a report has already been spread that it was intended to give to that country a Government on the model of that of the lonian Islands. All these circumstances. how. ever, strongly excite the attention of our Government, and de• snatches are said to have been sent to London from the Foreign Office, which are; chiefly relative to the insults which the Greek Marine constantly puts on vessels under the Austrian flag, which navigate the Archipelago. No secret is now made of the changes that have taken place. The affairs of Greece since the resistance of Missolonghi, and the Bight of the Capitan Pacha—the defeat of Redschid Pacha, and that of the Egyptian corps before Napoli di Romania, have de stroyed the hopes of the Port, which will be obliged to cont inence a new campaign in the spring.—Bestssels Paper: to Sep. tember THE HAYTIAN DEPUTIES IN FRANCE. The following is an extract of a letter dated Breit, Sep tember 18 : " The Envoys from Hayti made a stay of only fifteen hours here. Having yesterday completed the quarantine of twenty dam to which they had been subjected, they entered the city In the morning, accompanied by Baron de hlackau, by whom they were presented to Vice-Admiral Gourdon, the hlaritime Prefect, and immediately after they alighted at the Hotel de Provence, occupied by 111. hlalet, Consul• General for St Domingo. A toast was pro at the desert by one of the travellers. I was placed near N. Elloemec, and the Senator being resealed, replied, ' Gentlemen, when language, religion, and habits, tend to approximate two na tions, reconciliation cannot long be waited for.' He then recounted a circumstance in his life which showed his attachment to France. "" I came to Europe,' said he, ' during the Consular Govern ment, and then traversed Germany, as far as Hamburgh, where I embarked. I was forced to put into a port in England, where I re mained about six months. The opposite character and manners of the two nations (Franca and England) soon apprised me to which I belonged, by my inclination and my habits.' " In the next moment he said to us, ' Brest Is a Gibraltar !' " Apropos of his taste for France, I recollect the following striking remark : " Christophe having abandoned the education of his subjects to foreigners (our neighbours), threw farther off every day an event which we all desired. In a few years more St. Domingo would have exhibited nothing French ; but we have preserved the u. cred fire.' " Rouannex, as you know, is now in France. He Is above forty. It was the first time I had seen a man of colour. lie, ne. vertheless, appeared to be an able negotiator. The Senator Don mec is about fifty. Ile is the son of a mulatto and a black. His features, on being well examined, have some feeble resemblance to those of an European. His physiognomy expresses kindness ; his conversation is agreeable, and his experience is never at fault. Co. lonel Fremont has the military air of the old troops cf France. He is a pure negro, as well as his three sons. Ile is covered with wounds, which render his appearance a little rough. These gentle. men reckon on returning in November, so as to be at home in time for the Anniversary of Haytian Independence, which fells on the lit ofJanuary."—Ziotle. FALL OF CONSTANTINOPLE IN 1453. The following is a literal translation of a letter, the ori ginal of which is deposited, it it said, at Bruges, among the archives of that city. It was addressed to all Christian Princes by Isabella, Infanta of Portugal. wifeof Philip the Good, Duke of Burgundy and Earl of Flanders, upon the taking of Constantinople by the Turks in 1453. It is dated from Bruges, and the Belgian journal from which we take it truly remarks, that one might believe it to have been written at the present time, so much do the circumstances there related bear a comparison with those which are pass ing in our own time. " Prince, ornament of Christendom, and Catholic ruler, by the Grace of God: " The voice of a Princess brought up with the delicacy natural to her sex, has not the nervous eloquence able to point out to the Christian Princes the necessity of performing a service, on the which their honour and the dignity of their august character depends. The cause I propose to plead is that of God, and speaks for itself to the hearts of true Christiana ; it is the defence of the Cross ; the protection of religion is the first and only pledge of our salvation. The barbarians of Asia, disciples of the Koran, have taken the ca pital of the East by assault ; their ravages shame our religion, and their standards float over the walls of ancient Byzantium, steeped in the blood of victims to the Christian faith. This conquest of the great Constantine over idolatry is now the prey of the children of stahomet, who, scimitar in hand, threaten the remainder of the Greek empire. The beautiful country of the arts and scien ces i s about to sink under the rage of the Turks and the effects of the Koran, by a general destruction of morals and religion. The dwelling of letters, Athena and Thebes, will remain a spectacle of sorrow for ever; and the country of Miltiades, Aristides, and The , mistocles, is about to be invaded by a horde of barbarians and In fidels. It is not the cause of the Greeks alone; it is that of all Christendom I humanity demands our help, and God, who came into the world for our redemption, will aid our valour and con stancy against the enemies of his Gospel. " Had 1 the eloquence of St. Paul, the constancy of St. Cathe rine in suffering. and the power of the Christian Kings for ven geance and punishment, I should be the first to make the Saracen Crescent give way before the holy Cross of Christ ; but my sex, to whose weakness it is only permitted to act by piety and mildness, bounds me to forming the desire of seeing Christian heroism struggle against the ferocity of the children of the Koran, and unit ing in a muss to form an impenetrable barrier round the country of letters and arts against the doctrine of fflahomet. " If among so many Kings and honourable Knights there should be one who would not wish to be the first to attack the enemy, I, in order to give him emulation, am ready, although a woman, to show them the path to glory, for the service of God and religion, hoping that my example will raise a blush on the cheeks of those who hate not the courage to Imitate her who has the honour to salute your 11 ighness. " ISABELLA, INFANTA OF PORTUGAL, Duchess of Burgundy, and Countess of Flanders." We understand that, in answer to an application made yesterday at the Custom-house, it was stated that no order had been yet received to stop the shipment of arms for exportation. It is worthy of remark, that the Hero, Captain Steele, which arrived at Liverpool on Tuesday from Bombay, had not been heard of from the day of her sailing hence until her arrival from the east. She has completed he: voyage out and home in little more than nine months. ..... _ We stated a fortnight ago, that a Liverpool vessel had remained some months under seizure, at Rio tie Janeiro, for a slight infraction of the rigid regulations enforced at that port. Th• last accounts from Rio state, that she had been liberated, and that an action had lign brought to recover compensation for the loss occasioned by her de tention.—Liverpoot Cue' GREECE. The following letter from Hydra, although not of recent date, possesses considerable interest, particularly as we can rely upon its corrertness, a quality which is very rarely found in Greek news, whether it proceeds from the friends or enemies of the cause. The writer is an Englishman of sound judgment and undoubted veracity : My last communication ended with the intelligence of the disaen stone which had broken oat at Navarino between the Romehotels anti the Dloreotes, and a the arrival at Argos of the Chieftains °novella, Constantine Boned, Karaskake, &r. They had with these' about 3,000 men, who, according to existing regulations, were not allowed to enter the town of Napoli. The Chieftains, however, with a small retinue, made their public entry on the 2d lust, and after remaining a few days, set out for Rumelia. These unfortu nate dissensions have been of great disservice to the cause, as we shall see immediately. Meantime, let me mention that the Legis leave Body on Sunday. the ash of May. decreed a levy of 15.000 men in the different provinces, who are to be regularly disciplined and formed into regiments. The execution of this decree in its full extent, will, I fear, be very difficult, if not impracticable. At Navarino, the Greeks have received a severe lesson on the importance of discipline in war. On Sunday, the Ist of May, the Egyptian fleet, amounting, transports included, to 95 or 70 sail, came out of the port of Sonde, in Candle, where it had been for some days closely watched by &Greek squadron of 29 sail, under Miaulis. The latter immediately endeavoured to oppose their progress, but the light airs were unpropitious to his purpose. There was a distant cannonade kept up for sonic time with little or no effect, and two fire ships were sent off by the Greeks with equal bad success. A third was more fortunate. The rigging of a large frigate was seriously injured, and a large proportion of her crew, who leaped overboard in their terror, were either taken prisoners. or psrished in the waters. The Greeks failed in their principal object, and the Egyptian fleet succeeded in reaching Modem, whcnce 46 ships proceeded to cruise off Neo-Castro, whither they were followed uy Aliaulis. In the harbour of Neo-Castro, at this moment, was only only one Greek vessel, the brig Mars, com manded by the brave i!vdriote, CaptairiTsammados. It was en gage:) in provisioning the fortress, and covering the landing of the water, which was brought to boats from the coast of the modern province of Arcadia. Mantis, shortly after his wriest, sent in seven vessels, of which Tsamms.tios was to take the command, and to proceed with them to reinforce the squadron of five ships off Pairs. Thus, on Sunday, the Bth of Nay, the state of affairs was as follows :—The squadron of Miaulis, now reduced by the detachment above mentioned to twenty-two r esets was at a con siderable distance towards %ante. The Egyptian ti.'et, in numbers forty-six, were off the islands of Sphacteria, which ptoticts, or rather forms, the harbour of Navarino. The eiolit v 4 sets already mentioned, were inside the harbour. The neck of land, formed by a swamp and the sea, which connects the Palais Castro o. Nava rino with the main land, as also the plain at its extremity, were oc cupied by Ibrahim Pacha in person with all his cavalry. A battery or five heavy guns had been erected by the besiegers against the town itself, but the breach which it had produced was in some degree repaired. The island was occupied by about 300 irregular soldiers, and 200 sailors, who had been sent on shore by the ships inside. A battery of two small guns, wrought by a party of sailors, defended the landing place towards the sea ; three others, also of small size, were placed higher up among the' rocks ; and a battery of three pieces of heavy artillery at the southern end of the island, defended the only practicable entrance into the harbour. These last guns were manned by twenty-eight men of the artillery company of Calcrdgi. At 10 o'clock in the morning (of Sunday, the Bth), the Turkish fleet was observed standing in towards the shore. At noon they were ranged along the whole length of the Wand, keeping up a tremendous fire to cover the landing of the boats, and at the same time commenced a general attack by the besiegers on the main land. In a very short time a number of troops, variously estimated at from two to three thousand in number, had succeeded in forcing their way into the island. They were disciplined ala Eurorccone, dressed in red uniforms and armed with muskets and bayonets. This overwhelming force soon made themselves way, in spite of all opposition. The sailors at the lower battery were surrounded and destroyed to a man, and in the space of about an hour, the enemy had swept the whole island victoriously from end to end. Of the 500 men who defended it, not quite 150 escaped. Among the slain was the brave Captain Tsammados, one of the most ar. dent anti enlightened lovers of his country. The slaughter would not have been so great but for the extraordinary conduct of sonic of the ships in the harbour. 'When the Turks began to assume the ascendancy on the island, their fleet also began to extend itself for the purpose of blockading the mouth of the bay. At this critical moment Captain Badouri, a Ilydriote, gave the first signal of flight. It was obviously the duty of these vessels to have assisted the retreat of the fugitives front the island, or at least to have left their boats on the shore to facilitate it. But instead of doing this, six of them followed the example of Badouri, and by a disgraceful flight saved themselves, and gave up their countrymen to destruction. Fifty or 100 musket shots were tired after them in their rage by the victims on the shore. The vessel which remained was the Mors, belonging to Captain Tsammados, who was killed. On board of this brig was an Ame rican naval officer, Mr. Allen, who arrived here some months ago to assist the Greeks, and has since served as a volunteer. During a number of days that he had been in the castle of Navarino, his skill in the management of the guns had been of great service, and on this occasion his gallantry was thrown into bright relief by the shameful deficiency of others. Having gone on shore with Capt. Tsammulos, he was separated from him by the accidents of the fight, and compelled to take refuge abroad. He immediately sent on shore the only two boats belonging to the vessel ; but no sooner had they reached the land than they were both swamped by the number of soldiers who crowded to them, as their only remaining chance of safety. Almost immediately afterwards poor Tsamma dos arrived at the edge of the cliff with a wound in his left thigh, and another in his left shoulder. He was accompanied by three sol diers, and pursued by about 50 Turks. It was impossible to render i him any assistance, though he was plainly seen from his own ship, fighting desperately to the last. On this catastrophe Mr. Allen took fighting command of the ship. He had on board several soldiers, who had contrived to swim from the shore, and also Prince Alavrocordato, who had got him self conveyed aboard on the first symptom of fighting. The Turkish fleet had by this time nearly extended itself across the mouth of the harbour, and the battery commanding the passage was in the hands of the enemy. Too much praise cannot be given to the manner in which this vessel, a brig of eighteen guns, was extricated from so many dangers. An officer on board addressed the men from the quarter deck, promising them that they should not fall alive into the hands of the barbarians, for, that in case of necessity, he would Oct fire to the powder magazine, aid involve both in one common destruction. The men received this announce ment with loud cheers. The breeze being light, for three succes sive hours she remained almost in the middle of the Turkish fleet, during which time she exchanged broadsides with several frigates, besides many core cues and brigs, none of which was under her own force. Considerably damaged in bser hull and rigging, but with a loss of only two men killed, and eight or ten wounded, she at last got clear. On coming up with the fugitive ships she put Alavrocordato on board of Badouri's ship (who conveyed him to Calamata), and proceeded to Hydra, where she arrived on the ilth instant. The Greeks in the oli castle of Navarino, after a sally, in which they lost nearly 300 men, their provision of water being totally ex hausted, lai.t down their arms to the number of twelve hundred. Their Generals, Hadji Christo and the Bishop of Motion, also fill into the hands of the Turks. These latter still remain prisoners ; but the common soldiers, according to the terms of the capitulation, were discharged, after being deprived of their arms, and compelled to pray for the success of Ibrahim Pacha. The most alarming symptom here is, that the barbarians begin to carry on war in a ci vilized manner. and attempt, by kind treatment, to conciliate the affections of the conquered. In Crete, it is said, this insidious sys tem has been employed with considerable success. We have a number of vague rainours here of two Cefaloniote vessels, with re fugees from the island on board, having been burnt by the Turks, when they refused to give them up ; but I cannot trace theni to any authentic source. The account of the battle which has appeared in the journal here is full of inaccuracies and very deficient. There is of course a great deal of distress in the little community of Hydra; one hundred men is a serious loss in a population of twenty-five thousand. But I see no symptoms of despair. (in the contrary, every thing portends that this event will act like the cap. ,ure of Ipsara last year, in rousing them to icifuld exertions. B douri, who gave the first example of Hight, dare not appear in his native town. Ile would be torn in pieces by public indignation. Private letters from Napoli, to the 3d of August state, that the French Colonel Fabvier was busily organizing his troops, which amounted to 800 men. Colocotroni and Ypsilanti bad harassed Ibrahim'Paella very mucb,and sent in many prisoners. The two sous of Colocotroni were to leave Napoli in the beginning of August, to join their father, with about 2,500 men. The eldest son is about 24; he is the idol of the people, on account of his gene rosity and courage. The town of Napoli, which is only calculated for a popu lation of 6,000, in the latter end of July had 25,000 crowded into it, exclusive of those who had taken up their quarters on the sea shore and in the dry ditches of the for tifications of the town, sheltered from the intense heat of the sun only by a few scraps of carpeting or matting stretched upon poles. Thcre were bouaLs in the town in which there were not less than 300 inmates —seven, eight, ten, or even fifteen individuals, being crowded into one room. The Etoile gives a singular story of a SuHot boy, of twelve years of age, advancing to the tent of the Seraskier, during a sortie from Alissolonghi, with a gun and pistol, in order to shoot him. Ile was taken ; and when asked how a child of such a tender age could dare to expose him self to such danger, he replied that the love of his country inspire(' him, and that he would be happy to die for hor. It is said the Seraskier placed a guard, over him in his camp, but that be escaped and joined his compatriots.

It is also to be considered, that the exist ence of the Concert Room has rendered the preset festival more productive, to the amount of from 2,0001. tts S,Ooci. than it would otherwise have been.
