TRIESTE ' OCT. 2.—Since the dreadful massacres which took place in the Island of Cyprus, the summer, before last, the want of news from that Island made es imagine that tranquillity had succeeded these first ex- eesses. We indulgeri•in this pleasing idea with the more confidence, as there has never been the smallest symptom or indication of insurrection in the Island of Cyprus. A letter written by the English Consul to one of his rela. Uons who has resided in our city since the troubles of the PAst, bas dispelled the illusion. This letter, which certainly cannot be suspected, is to the following effect : Cysuas, Aug. 13. " Cy -two towns and villages of this unhappy Island have totally disappeared; only their ruins remain to at test the barbarity of their destroyers, and yet the rage of these blood-stained monsters is not yet appeased. A band of wretches very lately repaired to Morphon, where they destroyed every thing with fire and word: the women and children were, for the most part, taken and confined for several days in private houses without food : those who were not destroyed by hunger were burnt, together with the houses. Every hour is marked by murders in all parts of the island.— The Christians are hunted like wild beasts. It is chief) , upon the churches and the Ministers of the Christian Religion that these stupid 'Forks continue to exercise their fury. At Saint Niels'', after kllliag or taking pri toners the inhabitants in the midst of , peace, they burnt images of the church and transformed the edifice into a stable. At Chryso Rojatissa the church of Aspro Pa ntie is was changed into a mosque. Very lately the Zs hit (Sub•linvernor) of Cyrinia, at the Is;mil of a hand of furious wretches,entered the convent of Patiteleimon,and after having saddled and bridled the Monks. like beasts of burden, they mounted on their hacks, and so rode about the country. The tiov rrrrr of the island, a mats equally ferocious and stnpid, lately sent his Cans (t h e performer of his orders) to the Monastery of Riecon, where some Caloyers (or Anchorites) still remained.— This officer, no less cruel than his master, made several or three poor solitaires expire in tortures, among others, Father Sylvester, who was known throughout the island; the rest dispersed, leaving the Monastery deserted. The Turks then set fire to the environs; the eon . Ilagration continued 23 dap, gradually extending to .the rieighbouring districts. Several fine forests of fruit ire's, vineyards, Sze. have fallen a prey to the flames. The damage done by this fire is incalculable; a tract of tountry33 leagues in extent, formerly so remarkable for i's high cultivation and fertility. Is now nothing more thin a heap of ashes. •• That part of the Island which is occupied by the troops of NI CHUM) Au. Padre of Barre, alone enjoys tranquillity. SELIM flay, who commands for the Nana, • makes his troops observe the, strictest discipline. • If Emma') Au should withdraw hitt towapeoss *ere is reason is fear, there would no longer be any security Pl'. n for the Franks."—(lt Is the English Consul who speaks.) (EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM SMYRNA. SEPT. I.) " The desolation of Solo, which owes part of its leis fartuues to the imprudent zeal of Mr. Digeon, who drew the Greeks into the snares of the Turks by pub. lishinz a deceitful amnesty, in which we suppose he bell.-ved, cannot be compared with the ravages exercised io Cyprus by ele alabrourtans. We long refused to ere di! the new crimes which have deluged with blood the . tto ri tory of Paphos, Alnathoust, and Famegouste. lint tic veil is torn, and the enemy of the Christian world no longer conceals his monstrous deeds. Since the snowla of July, 25,000 Christians of all ages, and both seta., lacy, f dien under the hands of the executioners, +hat is, the Turkish soldiery, for the stake and the gib ' het would not r.ulrice for the impatient craelty of the circumcised tigers. Seventy four villages, containing a population of 16,01i0 Christians, are no more. The old ta.en and the married women have perished; the rest Illve been sold, to be conveyed into the interior of Asia Minor, except the children under four yarn of age, ho have been killed or thrown into the sea. The churches, the monasteries, in a district of 40 square leagues, mace disappeared; the Priests and Monks, ithont exception, have received the crown of martyr , a r.al perished in dreadful torments. Yet there has b,-1 on insurrection in Cyprus; but the will of the Sultan has sworn the extirpation of Christianity; hr sla and the Egeao Ser and the Islands are dyed Mood. " fie nut surprised if the miserable Journal here does r. tt r!iaclose such crimes. They would hinder the GAUSS it has embraced ; and the WWI of the Franks, of whom It- is tha echo, is to see the Greeks annibiluted. I will point out another time the nacn wlie are base enough to Lave speculated on the misfortunes of the Christians— the fortunes acquired by the sale of an asylum and pro , faction to the wretched—aril the monopoly of blood exercised in those days of carnage and mourning. It is Lot yet time to speak. Above all, I must not omit to tiention that the part of Cypress occupied by one of the Comm:milers of Mehemet Ala, Paella of Egypt, is Iran . ; the Christians are protected there. Accordingly It hiplblielv sail at Contisntinople and here, that the • Viceroy of l'4lYPt is a renegade, a traitor, and that as same es it can be done he will have merited the fate of All ?oche, of Joanina.

FIRE THIS MORNINO.—This morning, between 5 and 6 n'elock, a fire broke out in the upper part of the house of Mr. Hedges, wholesale woollen-draper, No 49, Alder msobury. It is supposed to have originated in a cop per fine; the servants having, during the night, been employed in brewing. The prompt arrival of engines and a good supply of water, enabled the fireman speedily to extinguish the darnel, the interior of the house only having been deranged.

The wisdom of the City of London and its Corporation, espeCially, has so long been proverbial, that oti one co he surprised if the story should be actually tree, which we hive just seen in the last Monday's Observer, nans&' , ly, that it has been, if not yet is, in agitation to lake some step with regard to the picture of her lite Majesty. with a view, as it is preposterously said, of rendering a visit to the City Council Chamber not unpleosant to the feelings of Oar Great and Gracious Monarch. It is this that we resent ; an attempt on the part of any one to cause it to be believed that the great and mighty mind of his Mary coubl possibly be ruffki io the Amalie's degree by beholding the picture in question. Sten there ; have been,iadeed, to shake, as it were with an ague, at the sigbt and even of tbe though tofali sing wife ; bet to think that his AIAJZSTV would tremble at the sight of a petti coat in painting, is, indeed, to promulgate& libel on this Sovenetcsr ; a libel touch greater than ashy of those for which so many men have been punished of late years. and beyond all comparison greater than that, whith, ther slay, the famous ficaabarr failed to a jef a s make . r inoffanaire to a Jury.—tint, the worst part Of ihe story that we have read is this, that a thoughts has come into the beads of some of the 4 . wide men ar ts 44 (+ othatn", that they might seeder the picture of Or MAJESTT less obnoxious to the Royal eye, by , taking a brush and scrubbing out the LETTER which her Me.; JESTT is represented as bolding in her hand; Am letter; ' thatinamortaidocument,b) which we understsAber Ma; JESTT said she wished to be made known to EktstrrilYs l Now, hew should his MAJWITT knew .... 7 Arg4lollllo, that Letttr? That is to say,' how shojis( be kis* that . - her &Wears is drawn with the Letter to the Milo in bedlam, ? We would pledge our souls that he neveraew the-picture ; and who should dare to carry him the gee-, siping story ? lint we remember another person, who cer tainly had seen the picture: who had seen 'be representa tion of the letter in tlieliand ; and who had uttered in the House of Commons, trhatgood manners prevents ns from calling a very stupid philippic against that Letter: and the person we a'lnde to is no other than Mr. Alderman thiensve, LOUD Marron elect !—Surely the Letter is not going to be rubbed out of the Picture, in order to please, in order to gratify another person ; and that, too, under the pretence that it would gratify the feelings of the KING. We should not be much astonished, how ever, if the attempt were to be made; and we should not absolutely distrust our senses if tee were to hear that the thing were done. The persons however who seem to have no other desire at heart hut that of keeping the Letter out of siciit, may, we dare say, have the full bppprobation of all the Livery if they hill consent to keep the !Ater out of sight by hanging a thumping green bag op before it.—We have not the smallest doubt, that if Mr. Ileygate was to request it, there might be here aryl there a green bag upon a pole as descriptive of the thoughts of the people upon the festive occasion that is approaching. To get down the picture seems impossi ble; to blot. it over appears not to he very likety to succeed ; and we would advise those who have made the most fuss about the matter to shut up their mouths upon the subject as soon Al pO%Sillle. •. SIR 11(•:11:1t1' WILSON. it scold creel that Sir !torture litmus has been ex- Pelted Isom France. Melancholy tidings for the gas sippers at *oohs's. We should be very glid to know what business Sir ltonswr Wtt..som has to Le at all iss termedilling with the affairs of the French Uovernment. If, indeed, there was the smallest probability of his ren dering any service to the cause of liberty in France, there would he an apology for this everlasting turmoil shout him and the French police. We thick, on the contrary, that all his meddling is calculated to ylo great mischief to the cause of liberty in ?ranee, whicC roust be injured by the senseless babble that is now carried on between the gossippers of the two countries. If a Frenchman were to coins and interfere in our affairm run bustling and talking about in the manner that we read of with regard to these English gossippers in France ; there is not a man of us that would not say. let him he turned out of the country ; and especially If that Frenchman had notoriously been one of the most ac tive agents is forcing upon the people of England a sway of which he was now pretending to wis4 to rid them. Not only was Sir Itonsav Wttwo2e voluntarily serving against the people of France during the whole of the late war not only was as active as his ditty required of him 'luring the war; not only was he what other mi litary officers were in this respect: but was he nut, we beg. to know, a little something extra military, when in the Swiss cantons, prevailing' upon those wbo had power in that country, to* break the most solemn treaties with [AN. ....p•- , ......" ~~ tiaroutox, !Hid thereby °per, a pa,s.ga No the A ustrimi , to pour in sipil complete the subjugation of France i• bet es not be drlnded by frothy profrssion. of a lore of , libarty.
