Last night we received the Paris Morning and Evening Papers of Saturday; those of Friday also came to hand in the course of yesterday. The Opposition Journals are overwhelming M. ne.Cusiressesatasn with praises for W.s last pamphlet against the ministry. The Constitatioxsei declares that it is a mortal blow given to them : " all the sophisms urged in their favour are there destroyed by un ayswerable arguments." It must be allowed that the iitSle essayist has written, on this occasion, with greater, v:gnur than usual, and more address. Alluding to the reasons assigned in the memorable decree for imposing the ee:•sorship, he observes, " Let us no! forget that the feel ing of our tribunals, wounded in respect of their inde residence, concurs with the general opinion, and that finally the Chamber of Peers puts, as it were, the seal to the just and loyal opposition of the magistracy and the nation." .I , noital des Del ats relates another of those instances ut beneficence which have gained Curates X. the popn larity he enjoys, in spite of the general dislike felt towards Lis ministry. When the KING was returning from his I vo,it to the Hotel Dieu, in wiling through the I'lace du March 6 Neuf, an aged and distressed female, the widow, al two Chevaliers de St. Louis, was thrown down by the' is:assure of the multitude, nearly under his Maiestv's carriage. The KING, hearing bee cries, instantly or dered it to be stopped, and having ascertained that she had only received some slight bruises, granted her on tie spot a pension of 400 francs. We may easily ima gine the acclamations that would burst forth from a people as enthusiastic Lithe French, on this fresh manifestation of talc royal bounty. Our private correspondence from Paris is quoted in all the Opposition Journals, but as often from our contemporaries, who take it piratically, as from our own r• cuhunna. .In the Finite, dated Sunday, there are letters from Con.. stantinople, confirmatory of all the naval victories of the Oweeks. Their barbarian foes are plunged into the deepest despondency. The heroic CAN Atli, who is entitled to the largest share of the glory of having destroyed the Turk ish fleets, had vowed, if the wind continued favourable, to sail into the Derdanelks, and burn the CArITAN PA C U A . ll virAlti under the eyes of the GRAND St:LT A N . Meanwhile, .I:ssensions are growing up daily amongst the Mahometaus. In Candia the Turks and Egyptians have had a battle. Tile time has most probably arrived when the View), will openly throw off his subjection to the SC.LTAN, and iva example will be followed by tvery Paella who can rea sousbly hope to maitittie his indepene.enee. The Etoire positively contradicts the assertions that the evacuation of Spain is a measure undertaken in an unfriendly seirit Unser& the Court of Madrid. On the contrary, says the Moils, " all is concerted between Femme and Spain, for the stay of the troops that reurtiu." There is some haltering in this statement. We do not doubt that i'rance het acted in concert with Spain in suitaing smile troops to remain in the latter etuntty. 'Etc question is, whether aline was any agreement between the two Powers as to the 'withdrawing of any psrtion of the troops ? This shallow attiEce will not deceive Europe.

The the contrary. in attempting to form, fell into dread which was increased when the I ;reeke advanced to with an Intrepidity which was admired by the Euro- WM* were present at the action. it was of short darstion. The Barbarians shamefully took flight to seek refuge anew io the port of Mitylene. But the brave defenders of the Cross arrived there as soon as they, and in a few minutes fire or six Turkish or Egyptian frigates became a prey to the flames. The heroic CaIfAXIS, after invoking . the name of our Saviour, threw himself into s bast, to direct, to persim, the terrible opera tions of the tire-ships. He, himself, set fire to three of the ships of the Barbarism. 111 C CAPITAN PAcHa has arrived as a fugitive in the Darda nelles, having under his ownmand one dismasted ship of the line and one frigate. Some say that he is sick, others that he is dead. At all events, be is an undone man : the anger of Heaven has fallen on the eseentiotwe of !para. It seems that the Su tr sit ascribes the disastas of his Acct to the relaxed devotion of the klusselmans. lle has Just published a Finnan, ordering the women to dress less indecently, an cast less wanton looks upon the men.

The Oriental Spectator, after having been succeeded by the Sotyrtseets, has now superseded it. Wltitever title his paper may assume, it is edited by the same individual, and in the same spirit, nansely--that of thematic disgusting partiality in favour of the Bar barians. At the moment when they are falling on all sides under the blows of the Greeks, the Spectator has the audacity to feign that they have pined victories. iThe Ma* gives news from Constantinople of different dates, which it states to be how its own private correspondence.] OCT. 9. The Bishop of Philipprilis, who was brought to Conaantinople on a charge of corresponding with the Savant., and exciting them to rebel against the Porte, was exiled yesterday. It is said that twenty-four ether Greek Bishops of Burnell' are going to be exiled. After giving some account of the losses of the Turks In the several actions, it is added " haunt)!

Oc v. IL The Mussel/rums in garrison, at Candies, have quarrelled and fought. The troops of the SULT•X beat thost of MENIZSIZT ALI Pactsa„ and drove them out of theeity ; they arc encamped on the plain. The Greeks, before their late victory, had resolved, as soon as the Turkish fleet wan Into port for the winter, to go to Crete, and assist the inhabitants to throw off the Mundman yoke. Nassau Pacna, who commanded in Candle, died lately. Oc e. 12. The report madeofficially, by the Turkish Ministry, contains what follows : " The Greeks have burned thirty transports, two frigates, and five schooners, corvettes and brigs. " They have not thought fit to say in this report how many yes. ash were taken ; it is only added, that the CAPITAN PACII• Was very fortunate to be able to save himself, and that be certainly would not have escaped. if the Greeks had not believed that he was in one of the two frigates that were burnt. It is also stated, that the thirty transports were all Turkish, and that the Curupean vessels wi ich were hired, were not present od this occasion. " P.S. It is said this evening, that • great Lacer of the seraglio has been beheaded, and the disgrace of the Grand Vizier is gene rally believed " The CoertitePontscl states to-day, that the troops which evacuate Spain are going to form an army of occupation at Bayonne. We. know not whence the correspondents of that Journal can have taken such a piece of news. The evacuation of a part of Spain is a ineasu•e taken in ermcert, executed with a good understanding, and not a measure of recrimination and hostility. The French troops quit that part of Spain which they eau leave without danger; Cadiz and Barcelona, which are the points where a force may seem the more necessary, remain occupied ; and 10,000 French at Cadiz answer to tke King of Spain for the tranquillity of that part of his kinjdom, which the Spanish troons, cantor yet occupy. Two Swim regiments at Madrid are more than sufficient to main tain order till the Royal Guard shall be organized. The fifteen months during which Spain has b-cn occupied by the French have not been lon for the establithenent of internal order. All was provided for with regard to the departure of the troops who with draw. AU is concerted between France and Spain for the stay of those that remain. Letters from Madrid inform us, says the Erho di Midi, and the friends of the King will not has it inthont lively regret, that in eensequesce of the mortitications experienced by Baron Digroles, that worthy General Officer is attacked by a mental dis order, which time, and the aid of art, will, it is hoped, relieve.

The Papers received yesterday from Buenos Apes only tend to plunge into worse confusion the perplexed and contradictory intelligence relative to the state of things in Peru. In one respect, at least, it is quite satisfactory. All the accounts agree in representing the cause of inde pendence as gaining successes almost daily, though of no considerable importance. The reports is the North Ame rican papers, as to the jealousy felt by the Republic of Buenos Ayres towards Bouvaa, are proved to be wholly groundless. The Government and Legislature of Buenos Ayres bad resolved to draw closer the relations with the State of Colombia, and to co-operate with it, in order to bring the war in Peru to a happy conclusion. If we knew nothing before regarding the disinterested career of the Colombian Liberator, this resolution alone would refute all the absurd and malignant rumours that have been cireu lated against this eminent and able man. The news of yesterday leaves us completely in doubt as to the conduct and positien of OI.AAETA. In the private letters in the Buenos Ayres papers, he is represented as being still faith-' ful to his duty to Spain, though a conjecture is hazarded that lie will not long continue so. Some of the letters rc ceived in town yesterday from Buenos Ares, mention a report that VALDEZ and OLANETA had fought; but as there appeared no foundation fur this report, beyond its mere currency, it was generally discredited. CARRATALA, who, it was stated some time ago, bad been made prisoner by Ouxs r A after an engagement, has, it is now alleged, ! been surprised by the Independents at Potosi, and carried away captive. iVhatever uncertainty there may be with respect to the particular events that have occurred in Peru, we may, from all the intelligence in our possession, come safely to this conclusion, viz.—that the Spanish Coin ! minders are reduced to act entirely on the defensive, and that they maintain their posts with difficulty, exposed to the continual harassir•.g% of the grerilla parties of their adversaries; and consequently, that if the Spaniards were united amongst themselves, the Royalist Generals in Upper Peru c...uld not afford to denien any force to the assistance Of CANTAEAC. From all we hare learned by the late arrival from India, rre arc induced to believe that the Burmese war is likely to become a much more serious affair than was at first con templated. A warlike population of nearly seventeen mil- lions, in an almost inaccessible country, with every ad vantag: that local knowledge, and constitutions accustomed to the climate, can give them, are, if not a dangerous enemy, at least one upon whom it wilt be very difficult to make any lasting impression, as they have it always in their option whether' they will fight or retire ; whereas we, unable to follow them into the jungles, must generally rest satisfied with repelling their attacks. Besides, we fear that the power of the entany has been underrated, and that troops have not been sent in sufficient numbers fully promptly to bring the Burmese to terms of submis sion, as there is a wide difference between the capture of two towns and the permanent conquest of an extensive district, inhabited by a bold and warlike people. With such an enemy in front, should it seem feasible to Re it our Sticc to raise a disturbance in the upper provinces of India, the war would peeve both long and serious. The fullonring is the. extract of a letter from a gentleman at Rangoon, to his faun! in Calcutta, dated the loth of May : ‘Ve were the !art %hip that left the pilot, which we did on the 19th April, and arrived at the Andaman' on the 30th ; the sixth transport in the port.

Majesty's frigate Liffey, the Larne, a 26-gun ship, the tilaney, Of the same no tal, and a brig of to r uns: with there we m ade a dashing figure across the Bay, keeping so close together that I am surprised that there were no morn accidents happened than actually occurred ; we accidentally ran down the strain boat the night after tie left the port, carritd away her marts and demolished her wheel, so that the was obliged to Le taken in tow by the frigate. We arrived in the river on the 11th, when the Blaney was sent with a few ships to take possession of the Island of Llietlubs, which I hear is now in our possession. The fri gate took the lead up the river, and we an followed close in her wake; the nativ es fired a few shots at us while going up, but they did not prevent us from anchoring off the town, which we did at noon the sane day. The ships wore brought abreast of a battery of IR grins, which immediately commedced a smart fire upon the Liffey, which she was not behind hand in returning, and with such effect, that she totally dismounted every gas in the battery, and demolished several houses round about it. " Then would not have been a shot fired on our part had they not begun first. It seems by all accounts that they were not in a condition to receive us. as they had no ides we should have been so soon upon them, although they were quite aware that war had been declared. We came just in time to save two or throe European settlers from death ; they were found in irons, and had that day been taken from the prison, and marched before a body of troops, they urging them all the way, by pricking them with their spears, towards the place of execution, where their heads were to bans been struck off: "Copt. SKOWBALI. and family small safe; I do not believe they offered any violence to his person. We landed the troops at six on the same evening without any oppositbn, and no wonder, as we found the town completely deserted. There was a grand plun dering immediately took place, in consequence of which a number of men are in close confinement for six months. Some Luscars have been publicly flogged, and several meddlers are to be hung or shoe for plunder and brutal assault, in • house belonging to a European settler, of the name of TURNIeII. Notwithstanding our peaceable landing, I am afraid we shall have warm work before they will submit ; they seem a desperate set of fellows, and courageous too : the other day, at a slight skirmish, in attempting to draw them out of their stockades, which are strong buildings, so constructed as perfectly to conceal them, they killed two officers and wounded seveml others; so that it appears nothing can be dons here on hind, as it is a vile jangly country, and no one is acquainted with the roads, and the few troops we have are but handful compared with the numbers they have to engage with. It is true, they dare not show their faces in the open plain, ncr can we follow them into the jungle; foe there their match-locks and spears, which are their only weapons, are more efficacious than the heaviest ordnance would be. We are now fitting boats to go up to Ava with the troops, as well as every vessel of a small draught of water; all we ships' long-boats are also put in requisition for this service. We burn all their boats that we can find, and have already destroyed some very finc craft. The rainy season has just set in, and very disagreeable it is too, never ceasing from morning to night. All our boats are employed in getting off the Hastings frigate, which has grounded some way down the river." Letters have been received from Rangoon, dated May 20, 1824, which state that the Burmese hare proved themselves a most determieed enemy; and that the Commander-in- Chief had ordered the transports to return for reinforce ments. This way be depended on, u the letters were from Captain Hornblow, who is agent for transports. Leuers from Pernambuco of the 26th September, state ' that every thing was perfectly tranquil, and that Lord 'Cochrane, who had arrived there in the Don Pedro, wesild I probably proceed to Maranham in a few days, so that be might arrive there by the middle of October. Fax Nen Moc•es.—Tlic French Government receives annually the enormous sum of forty millions of' francs, as • tax levied on the privileged gambling houses in Paris and the chief provincial towns in France. Supposing that there are .500,000 persons which is one-sixtieth part of the whole population, addicted to the destructive habit of gambling, it may be computed that they not only furnish out of their losses, the forty millions imposed on the proprietors of the gaming tables licensed by the legislature, but also pay the immense expenses incurred in keeping up these, in 'many instances, splendid establishments, and provide the large fortunes made by the principals. It is further to be observed, that it is not alone at the gaming table that these infatuated persons lose their propert , for the benefit of the Government. The Munts-de-Pidk the Government pawn- shops) are filled with their articles o dress, furniture, plate, jewellery, &c. which are usually sold at a very low price, as the owners seldom have the means of redeeming them, or I paying the rate of 12j per cent. interest, which the piety of the Government receives for its loans ' • or they are forced to sell their duplicates to usurers, wh o purchase them for about a quarter of the intrinsic value of the object in pledge. The houses of ill-fame, anti the unfortunate females who are permitted to infest he streets of Paris and other large towns, arc also laid under contribution. Thus, while in England gaining houses, and other places of bad repute, are exposed to the severity of the law, in France the legislature find in the vices of the people the most fruitful resources for the royal treasury. Thi3 disgraceful fact is alone suffi cient to account fur the surprising balance of moral cha racter in favour of the English. It is rumoured that a Notary of Paris has absconded with property of his numerous clients to the amount of more than a million of francs. His iellow-notaries, it is added, intend to pay all his debts. in order to wipe off the stain which his misconduct would attach to the body. —Galignani's Messenger. Yesterday being the settling day on the Foreign Ex- change, a good deal of bustle took place in the early part of the day, and everything went oft' smoothly enough. Consols continued steadily at their present depressed state, but there wire great fluctuations in the South American Securities. Mexican Bonds began at nearly the same as they left ofF on Saturday, and afterwards fell, in conse quence, as it was alleged, of news by the American packet John. Wells. Th..) , finally rallied a little towards the close, and rose from el, to 64'. In any question about the rate of Exchange. it ought to be borne in mind, that gold is now the standanl for English money. The par of Exchange between Great Britain and France is nearly 251 francs for the sovereign. Hence the franc is worth aid. The worth of the Ame dean dollar is about 4s. 2d., not 4s. 6d., as it is absurdly valued in accounts, which, to be righted, require a dis count of about eight per cent., and this discount is ridi culously ascribed to the state of the Exchange. A gentle man, who lately took some Sims rupees to New York, found that their intrinsic value as bullion was forty-six cents, or Is. 11d. sterling, which of course is the par of Exchange. The great increase of the environs of London has of late years produced very rest inconvenience, delay, and ex pense, in the delivery of letters by post, in the parts called " oft' the sto.ies," where there is a continuation of neigh bourhood. It has therefore been deemed necessary to ap ply for a removal of the above grievance, Witt many re spectable inhabitants of the parishes in the vicinity re . Lender* have signed a petition to Pediment, and another to the Pestmeeter-General, praying for an extension of the limits of the General and Two-penny Posts. The justice and reasonableness of the application, and the great num ber of signatures attached to the petition, give reason to hope that every attention will be paid to its prayer. It is confidently expected that the alteration will produce an augmentation of the revenue, in consequence of a greater 'I number of letters being circulated daily through the me dium of the post. and by a free delivery of newspapers to the inhabitants of the environs. A letter from Colonel Ilarahall gives a very ratifying account of the settlement of Lanark, Upper Canada. The district has now a population of 11,000 souls, and sends two members to the Provincial Parl'ament, one for the county of Lanark, and one tor that of Carleton. The crcps are abundant—our settlers happy and contented.

We have at this moment lying before us one of the most singular productions we ever saw. It profess( to be a col lection of odes, in 3' different languages and dialects, in celebration of he birth-day of Frederick the Great. Whe ther they all proceeded from the pen of one poet or many, does not appear from the work. We suspect that but few hands were engaged in the compositions, for, as e .r readers will see presently, the writers were not particularly soli citous to know much of the. languages in which they un dertook to magnify the glories of their hero. The English ode, which ranks fifth in the collection, seems to have been one on which the poet prided himself. It is rather longer than the rest, and is not accompanied with a Latin transla tion, which, sensibly enough, has been added to most of them, to enable the reader to glass at the author's mean ing. Perhaps some of our readers may regret that they had not also the benefit of a veraio, for it must be con fessed the poet is occasionally somewhat obscure. The composition is exactly such as we might suppose one of the Babylonish labourers to have spoken immediately after being afflicted with the confusion of tongues. Certainly the notions of sense, metre, and rhyme we meet with in this piece, surpass everything that has before falkta under our observation : THOU Greatest KING in all the age, In all the Land and World adord !

The character 0 . 21fachelft, like all the other productions of Shakspt•are i ; ; a mixed and complicated Drum. Up to the pill xl of 11, t ' assassination, whilst he is torn by conflicting pas,, o „ , whilst lie vibrates between a sense of duty and his thirst of dominion, he is an object perhaps of our solicitude—l ie L, some claim to our sympathy ; but when he yields to rt. impulse of high-vaulting ambition, and to thesti7gsstie4; or more properly speaking (in this instance at least), t the menaces of his wife, and becomes the murderer eft s sovereign and his guest, he ceases to be viewed isith miseration, and excites in the minds of the spectators id t , of detestation and of hatrs..l. Thenceforward the des. ter becomes one, we think, of peculiar difficulty; lug nothing to hope for in the way of sympathy, having 14 claim to benevolence or esteem, it must depend entirrit for success upon the impression which is made something like the Satanic dignity with which it is cloth,{ by the performer; this, in our opinion, was the infiio r part of Mr. Macready's performance. He was, a:L.4 upon all occasions, active and energetic; but in dot ms.. jestic personification which is necessary to snake a sills:a I rkepectable, and constitute him, if not an object of sneers, a source of tenor, we think lie was ratite deticirtit. It may perhaps be also objected to him in the early acierid the play, that his acting was rather harsh, that he did act appear sufficiently like the man who would forbear from creme through the compunctious visitings of his conicioh l , that his was not a personification which would lead ussi suppose with Lady Macbeth, that his " Nature Was too full of the milk of human kindness To catch the nearest way." These are, however, blemishes not to be put in competitia with the general excellencies of his acting, and he mat s,, t fairly considered as well-deserving of the applause rid which his rudicncc rewarded his efforts. As the plu east at present, we would perhaps feel more tor ifacir:l, if the means useti by Mrs. Bunn, as the Ludy, for his X: , version, savoured more of entreaty and seduction. Thu actress threw, in our opinion, tow tuu,:h violence into the character throughout: the poet has not made hi r entire'y devoid of feeling; he makes her say, speaking of Datinit's murder— ":fad he not resemtled My father as he slept, 1 had doce't." This expression would thew, that the Lady's ferocity may be mitigated, and tempered with something like feminine softness, which would serve as a relief to the character, and account the snore readily for the easy seduction of Mac beth, and the fatal induence which she was able to exercise over him. The other characters were respectably supported. Mr. li'allack, as lifacditg, was much and deservedly ap plauded. The Falls of Clyde followed. The house (par. ticularly the pit) was well atten( d.
