The aItITISR Pacis commenced publishing yesterday morning at firs o'clock. LONDON, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 3, In 4. Saturday's Par:, Papers pcssess no intelligence of inte rest. We give below the leading contents of the Moniteur and Etoile. The latter anticipates throughout the depart ments in France an increase of Royalist Dtputies. No possible exertions of influence, corruption, and menace are spared to oust the infertile*, and procu-e the return of the partisans of pure monarchy. The Austrian Warner, a paper all through most hostile to the Greeks, has been at length obliged to acknowledge unlimitedly the disasters of the Turks in the last campaign. It gives the Firman, or Matti Sehertj of the Sultan, issued on the 13th of Decem ber, at Constantinople, appointing Ghalcb Pacha Grand %Wee, in place of his unfortunate predecessor, Ali Pacha ; and the Austrian Parser then states the fall of the citadel of Corinth to the Greeks. " A fact more offli.ling, (this journal adds) is, that the Christians have made a second landing in Eubcea, and got armed pussessicn o`, Karisto. Their attack on Mitylene (it states) was equally I successful." It then is obliged to admit the retreat of the Turks from before Miesolengbi, and the revolt of the Al hasieuerftilft et ashowsseeeded at Lutakri, and led to the tine surprise by the hero, Marco Bczzaris, at Karpenessi. The. failure befbre Missolongbi, the Viunua paper adds, has bad and will have fatal consequences for the Porte ; one decisive effect has been to raise all the Albanians in favour of the Greeks. Already Colocotroni was marching on Putras, with near eight thousand men, and would turn the blockade of that important place into a siege. When the Austrian Journal makes these admissions, the successes of the gallant Christians must indeed have been marked and decisive. There is no heart of any feeling that must not beat high in joyful anticipation of the ultimate and glorious result of their unparalleled exertions for liberty,—there is no mind of any sensibility that must not anxiously anticipate a .successful clese to that struggle, which may extinguish the barbarous tyranny that for ages has trampled under its feet this delightful portion of Eastern Europe, and which will give to Greece again a free existence and an imperishable name.

'• The King.—Amiest the caret which, at the epoch of my re establishment in the plentitude of the rights of my Sovereignty, ineptly claim my paternal solicitude, I have considered as one of the MOM important things the organivition of the police of my kingdom, which should make me acquainted with the opinion and the wants of my people, and point out to me the means of repressing the spirit of at dition, extirpating the elements of discord, and of making every thing concur to the prosperity of the kingdom. The police, hitherto confined within too narrow a circle, and de pending oo the immovable tidiity of the Spaniards, limited itstlf to precautions proportioned to the peaceable situation of the mo narchy ; but these precautions would now be barren end uselcra. It is therefore indispensably necessary to give them the unity, ev il:lll4N and force which are required by the changes of times and assue♦ts, and the want of repose, which is the first benefit of nit i litation, and the first security of the public welfare and happiness. In consequence-Asking into consideration what has been represented to me by the Superintendant-Oeneral of the public surveillance, and in conformity with the opinion of a junta of Al Misters of toy Su preme Councils, at which the Governor of my Royal Connell pre sided, and by the advice of my Council of Ministers, I have resolved to decree as follows :" (Hcre is subjoined the Decee, the substance of which has already been published.) . PARIS, JAT(.3O. The obsequies of V. lousgßs (the celebrated orientalist) took place to-day. Alter the 1.21igi04111 ceremony in the church of Notre Dame des Victoires, the mortal remains of the deceased were de posited in the burying ground of Pere la Chaise, to which they were attended by a numeral's deputation of the Institute, tie Con serateurs of the Royal Library, and a great number of distin guished ornaments of the sciences, literature, and the arm, both French and Foreigners. [From the Etoik.l PARIS, JAK. 31. The news we receive from the departmenta coplanar; to be nal ler.t. The elections are prepared for in a manna =fore. ble to the wi►hes of the friends of monarchy. Popo Leo XII. ha• named Cardinal Gonsalvi, Prefect of the Congrgation .k prop:246inch' VIENNA, JAN. 21. The ,t ',stria); ONert•e, publishes the following, under date of Constantinople, Dec. 24, after noticing the char ges in the Turkish Ministry : " The news from the theatre of war occupy and alarm the go vernment. The citadel of Corinth has certainly surrendered to the Greeks. A fact sti❑ more athicting is, that the insurgents hare made a second landing in Negropont (Eubma), and got possession of Karisto. Their attack on 3litylene has not been less successful. The events which hare taken place in the wcstern pat of the theatre of war are still more serious. " The Paeba of Scutari writes, that he has been obliged to aim die siege of 3lissolungld, and evacuate Anatoliko. For two months this has been foreseen by military men. The plan Of elm- / paign this year hai not been Bad, but the means of execution have all failed. The defection, and even revolt of the corps of 8,800 Albanians at Lunaki, was so much the more calamitous to the Turks, as the Greek general. Mark Borrari, took advantage of it, with rare talents, to effect his fine surpriae of Karpenissi. To coon plete the reverses, the Capitan Paeha—it is not known why—aban- t 'toned the station of Patras. Mustepha Pacha, however, ventured to attack the Greeks at Kilidonia, and obtained some advantage over them. This was the last affair of the campaign. " The fatal issue of the siege of Missolunghi has had, and win have, fatal consequences for the Porte. Its first eflict has been to raise all the Albanians in favour of the Greeks. The latter an nounce already that they will convert the blockade of Patras into u regular siege. Colocotroni marchcs on the place with six or tight thousand men. At Constantineple it is said that the fleet of the Capitan Pacha is to he sent back thither to attempt a diversion, but it is more probable that the scasm will compel a suspension of arms.

Both Houses of Parliament meet to-day. It is to be re gretted that his Majesty's health will not permit him to open the Session in person. The leading features of the Speech to be delivered by the Royal Commissioners are already known. It does not make any distinct recognition of South American independence, though it alludes to Con suls having been sent to that interesting part of the New World to watch over the commercial interests of our mer chants ; nor does it make any alltzsflis to the affairs of Greece, or the struggle now pending between the barbarous Turk and his revolted subjects in that classic portion of Eastern Europe. The Speech will open by stating the assurances received by his Majesty of the continued friendly disposition of all foreign Powers towards this country. It will then allude to the differences which still prevail be tween Russia and the Porte, the amicable arrangement of which, it will add, are contidiastly contemplated from tie strenuous exertions of our Plenipot...ntiary, Lord Strangford. On this melancholy state of Spain little will be said; and that merely in allusion to the war Ir tween France and that country, which has closed in everything but its c msequences: on that subject the Speech will contain the assurance, that every day's experience has confirmed the wisdom of that course of neutrality which Ministers adopted, and which the last Parliament so cordially approved. His Majesty will next inform Loth Houses, that Consuls have been sent out to South America, to pro tect the trade of this country in that important quarter of the New World, and to watch over our commercial into rests ; but that with respect to any ulterior measures it may be expedient to adopt, this country will take its own time for the arrangement of them. The course pursued by his Majesty's Government will be stated to have been steady and consistent, observing throughout a strict neu trality between Spain and her emancipated colonies. On the agitating subject of the West Indies, the Speech will state the endeavours of Government to carry into' effect the measures recommended in the Address voted by the Lower House for the religious instruction and general amelioration of the condition of the Negroes; and his Majesty will press upon Parliament the necessity of the greatest moderation and prudence in the present discussion of so delicate and important a subject as the ex isting condition of our West India Colonies. After this detail, of what may le called our Foreign Relations, the Speech, in noticing the domestic condition of the country, will state the great satisfaction his Majesty feels at_ the, flourishing state of the revenue ; the increasing activity in almost every branch of our manufactures; the prosperity of our trade; and the general improvement of agriculture, which will be mentioned as now promising speedily to re sume its permanent station among the great interests of the country. The Speech, in adverting to Ireland, will dwell on Lord Wellesley's Government, and the pro mising, appearance of improvement in the internal condi tion of that country, which has so long been the object of his Majesty's particular, and personal anxiety. Parliament and the Country will be complimented generally on the do mestic repose and quiet of this country, and the confidence now beginning to be felt by all classes of the community in the stability of our affairs. The Speech will then close with the usual recommendation to the Lower House to provide for the necessary supplies of the year; the esti mates for which will be kid before them. We cannot avoid regretting the condonation of the hesitating policy, too long practised, with respect to South America, and which withholds a distinct and unequivocal recognition of that which absolutely exists—the complete independence of those provinces. We did hope, that when the prudent poiiey was adopted of sending Consuls to those countries, that it was only preliminary to such an acknowledgment. France, we are persuaded, has yet concealed and dangerous d.aigns on those colonies: she is notoriously snaking large naval preparations in her ports, and prohally pith a view to an expedition, in the name of Spain, to those shores. Our commerce, in that rising quarter of the New World, is of first-rate importance; it is indissolubly connected with the freedom of South America. The United States have al ready expressed their feeling unequivoca ly on the subject; and we feel deeply disappointed that our Government has not pursued the same course. On the agitating sohject of our West India Colonies, the paragraph of the Speech which alludes to them has our warm approbation, and will have, we trust, the fullest effect with Parliament. The safety and preservation of these important appendages of the British Crown, the lives and property of the colonists, now haulms the wisdom and prudence of the Legislature. If the career of the abolitionists be not restrained, destruc don to the sugar islands and the white inhabitants must be the certain consequences. The stake is too deep to be trifled with for a moment: our possessions there are of too much importance to be sacrificed to the ignorant and im patient zeal of a few fiery and fanatic zealots. The dis cussions during the last Session, pressed as they were by Mr. Buxton and his party, have already is en followed by the deepest alarm and the most appalling consequences. If the fevered feelings that now prevail, both among the colonists and slaves, ere not suffered to subside, before any new discussion is pressed forward, no man can calculate what the melancholy results may be. With respect to Ireland, in the happiness of which country his Majesty's paternal feelings have been so warmly embarked, we know that a gradual but most sensible amelioration has taken place throughout the country. The zealots of both parties declaim against the Government of the Marquis Wellesley, and it is the best and highest compliment that can be paid his administration. We shall probably have, in the coming Seraion, petitions from the half-dozen ob scure and intemperate individuals, styling themselves a Catholic Board, complaining of the administration of justice on their side; and Sir George Hill and the Orange men will vent their complaints as impartially on the opposite benches. But the King's Viceroy was not sent to Ireland to consult the prejudices of any party : the peace of the entire country, and impartial government, for the benefit of the whole Irish people, -without dis tinction of sect or principle, woe the gnat object `his Majesty's Tepresentative tiaa lent to' a and these important put-poets he has steadily and unchangeably pursued, and in a great degree attain 'ed. In the view taken by the Speech cf the si tuation of this- country generally, we must fully con - I t cur ; it is now every day rising in prosperity ard con , segment power ; its pact mighty efforts are no lenger felt in the depression that for a while followed on them. The commerce, the manufactures, and the revenue of Crest I Britain, are all rapidly increasing. Near ten years of peace have already passed a say, and the benefits attendant on such a state arc now more then ever felt and appreciated; we trust the characjer and honour of the country may long be consistent with its continuance, and that when Great Britain is again called on to arm, it will be only when her quarrel is just and unavoidable ; and, with the fulniss of power,. et.pability, and resources in a willing and gallant people, whenever that day arrives she will be , found prepared for the effort;—but her day of peace will yet, we trust, be long and prosperous.

Lady Nugent gave a masked and fancy ball and supper on Tuesday evening, the 20th ult. at Teignmouth. The company amounted to about 130, • considerable number of whom were in character. Her Ladyship, in the early part of the evening, was dressed in the costume of 17'20, tier hair powdered in a most unique manner, and covered whit diamonds; at supper her Ladyship was in p opriet rsontr ; and afterwards appeared as a French lady. Sir Jaunts Nugent was liabited in full Court dress of the same reriod. On this occasion, the Conversatory was floored, and the whole fancifully decorated with evergreens and flowers, amidst which was intempersisl a great number of ea. legated lamps.

I Another striking instance Ilia occurred of the meanness and suspichts at the French Government towards those who have rendered themselves politically obnoxious to it. Two of Sir Robert Wileos - s's children, daughters, who had been at school in France, were on their way to this country, and were to have sailed in the packet from Calais on Friday last. Sir Robert Wilson who is not allowed to enter Franc.s, had gone to Dover. to receive them. When the packet arrived on Friday, instead of the young ladies, a messenger arrived, with the intelligence, that at the moment of their going aboard the packet, an agent of the police had brought orders that they should be detained. Sir R. Wilson, who was naturally surprised and alarmed at this Feet:sling, wrote to Mr. Canning, informing him of the circumstance; hut the next arrival from Calais brought a letter to Sir Robert, stating, that after examin ing the bag,gaese, and detaining nothing, the agents of the' police had said the young ladles were at liberty to depart. , When eitestioned es to thi causes of and order for this strenge proceeding, and caps chilly as to its taking place at so inconvenient a moment (the ladies having I:een a day and a night in Calais previous to the search, and all their passports having been regularly delivered berore), the agents stated that the measure was taken by the special order of the Minister of Police, who had ordered that the search should be made " at the moment of their departure." Erereis,, ,, purr. Of the individuals who have been recently tried in Lem berg, twenty-five in number, and among them several I noblemen, 'nine have been acquitted, and sixteen con de-ginned to capital punishment. Ten of the latter, how ever, having made their escape, they have been contemned par MIiUMOCC only, and as long, therefore, as they keep themselves beyond the jurisdiction of the Austrian ponce, their lives will beset:. The others, too, have had their sentences commuted, some of them into that of imprison ment in a fortress for life ; others for twenty years, and others for three. Those who were not convicted, even, with the exception of one, have been fined, and deprived of all their rights as Austrian nobles.

Yesterday we received the Paris journals of Saturtlay, with the Etude or Sunday. [From the Jortrnal des Debats.l PARIS JAN. M. The Monikirr of to-day contains an extract of the proceedings instituted against the Revolutionists of Lombardy, whose condem- I nation we noticed yesterday, with the names of those who have been finally judged for contumacy The extract of this proceeding is very long. The exposi of the formation, organiastion, and pro jects of the double ants of the Carbonarists and Adellists consti tutes the greater pan of this extract. We see by it that there two sects, divided only in name, but united by the criminal end of their institution, exercised the most powerful influence over the political events of which the different states of Italy were the theatre, and had nearly been the victims, in 111211 and libll. Compte Waal°. nieri was the chief mover of this vast conspiracy. An article in the San, English paper, of the "!Bth inst. states that the speech of the King of England will declare the formal recognition of the independence of the Spanish Colonies ; it is ad ' del that France and Russia would immediately follow the example of Great Britain. %%'e are imiorart of the politics of there several Courts; but we shall be much surprised if the speech from the throne of England should contain any thing so precise and formal. It is a parliamentary maxim, that the speeches should only be ' I in general terms, and so give a liberty for this or that part I to be espoused, according to circumstances, and the course which the di-cuesions of the House may take. We can hardly believe' that the cabinet of St. James's will publicly declare itself on so important an affair, before being informed of the intentions of Spain (who, it seems to us, is not the last that deserve. to be heard on this question); and before having received the reports of the English Commissioners sent to the Spanish colonies. Hut the reports will not be able to reach Europe much before the end of April next. The San, a morning paper, gratulates itself as much at giving this good news to its readers, as it supposes an evening journal (the Con fir , . possibly) would at giving an entirely opposite account. We leave these two great authorities, the San and the Conrier,! to dispute with themselves, for the purpose of raising and sinking ; the funds at the Loudon Exchange. [From the Conrrier Francois] PARIS, JAN. se. The Electoral Sessions, in France as well es in England, will give rise to some anecdotes more or less piquant. The journalists on the other side of the water take care to collect those which beat characterise the manners and humours of their nation. We are going to place before the reader a case of this kind, where each, here at borne with us, plays equally well the part that suit% him. M. deVieux-Castel, Sub-prefect of the Arrondissement of rkeaux, where he had been for about a year, having been solicited by the Ministers to favour by his influence the earwig of M. Roy, a banker at Paris, although they had appeared to take part with M. Comte de Chiteau-Girun, who was at first nominced President of this College, this forgetfulness was remarked by Al. Vieux-CasteL It was replied, that t h m pretensions of Count de Chiteau-tiiron would be deferred to another srssion, a time when the pro raises of friendship could be followed by the good offices that realize them. 11. de Vieux-Castel submitted. These new rceotionciAlations from authority being, however, the occasion of stone expensive entertainments, the Sub-Prefect begged to rematk, that as these feasts came out of his official al lowances, it was not natural that he should hear the charge of them; an observation without doubt very just, for this functionary the next day received a bag of twelve hundred franca; a circum stance fully justified by the result, as well as by the account fur. r.ished to the Minister. M. Roy was naiad Deputy for Paris. SOUTH AMERICA. The following, is a translation of an article under tha head of Peru, which appears in the Culonsbian Gazette of the 16th Novemixr:— " The Constituent Congress of Peru was reinstated on the 6th of August. . . . . " Communicatioos have been received from the President of Colombia, Bolivar, dated Lima, 25th of September. The Peruvian Congress has committed to him the liberation of that republic, with such unlimited powers as he may deem necessary for the fulfilment of so important a trust. " He presented himself in the Hall of Congress, and, amid reiterated acclamations of confidence and gratitude, pledged him self to do all in his power to fulfil the desires of Congress, which he fit to be so much in orison with his own. An income of 60,900 dollars was assigned to him, to be paid in preference to all other claims; but Bolivar, with disinterested modesty, refused the print, declaring his allowance from the State of Colombia to be perfectly adequate to all his wants. A splendid banquet was given to him by the tiovernmcnt. . _ MILtTAIY OPERATIOX/I.—A column of the army of the indipertdent G eneral Sucre, under the command of Genera .

The Stanish General marched from Poinata with the battalions of sharp-shooters and parlidarios, two squndro 'a of dragoons, the body guard of the Viceroy La Stma, mid four pieces of artillery. At three in the afternoon he fell in with and engaged the Petuvian army, when the Spaniards were c.mpletely put to the rout, and left on the field 14,V0 men, among kith d, wounded, and misusers. La Serena, the Viceroy, who was following Valdez, with the batta lions of the centre; Jaen" and Cantabria, and three squadrons of cavalry (part of the army which had occupied Limo, having heard of the defeat of the 25th, turned toratvls the plains of Mapamayo, where he was, on the 31st of August, completely at a stand for want of canoe;, the river which intercepted hia retreat not being fordable. The patriotic division of Colonel Lanza has made good its junction with that of the Independent General Gamin', and both were in pursuit of the Spanish ('hief ()lenetr, who was in precipi. tate retreat from Catamarca, having suffered a slight reverse there. The troops of this last were deserting in great numbers to General lismarra. '• When the courier which brings this news left Lima, it wu reported there that the Viceroy, La Seine, had been completely defeated by Genetal Santa Cruz, who must thus have followed up the advantages he obtained on the 25th. If this be true, Ilereral Camerae will have to imitate the conduct of General Morales." l'`We subjoin also an extract of a letter front Lima, dated August 21;th, IWIS, which, though anterior to the preceding intelligeree re ceved by way of Colombia, is of considerable interest, on account of the details which it gives respecting military morements, net noticed in the relembfqx Gazdte.

Avenalea and Urdinmes, had advanced as far as Tupiza, and as there was no force in any direction to impede his advance, our next advice' will be, no doubt, that he has occupied Potosi, and marching to form a junction nab Santa Cruz in La Paz. " General Miller was at a place called Polk, on the road front Chala to Cusco, and Sucre was folio wir.g on the mane path. r " There is no very positive inteiligvner of the movements of the Spanish Generals Camerae and Vakler. The latter, at any rate, is not Ihnown of; Camerae is supposed to be at Castro Viregr.a, Guanearelica. " As the movements of the Patriots have been more rapid and more decisive than the Spanish Generals had any reason to calculate on, when they left this, it is not improbable that Canterac will be obliged to act on the defensive for some time, and endeavour to secure himself in the province of Jauss. " General Santa ems has written to Torre-Tagle by the ems, and in terms that puts it quite beyond a doubt, that any dimensions that have arisen here between Riva .tguero and the Congress sill in no says resent a perfect understanding between the present Government here sad Ger.eral Santa Cruz. " Nothing of momer.t has occurred in other revrects here. It would he the line of policy of this army to make an immediate ad vance triwanis Jauxa, and it it not improbable thst something will be effected, whilst all parties in the State appear so well aware of the advantages of such a movement."

'CBE TEAR It will be perceiv;tl, that the actual receipts of the year l&3 agree substintiallv with the estimate presented in the last Arvind repeat. The Daly deficiency is in the proceeds of the pvtlic lands; and that is undendood to have been the consequence of in exrcetation, generally entertained, that the lands which were relic. quished, under the Act of 2d 3laach, Del, and which are supros to present the strongest inducements to purchasers, would at brought into market early in the ensuing year; with respect to customs, however, the anticipations which had been feirmetl, as to the circumstances which were calculated to have an innitall:t upon their productiveneas, and as to the results, have been cum. pletely realised, It is believed, therefore, that data founded apra the same principles as those which governed in forming the at.. mate foe the year 1833, ma) he satisfactorily presented as the 116 of an estimate for the year 11;21. With this view the Secretary fus the honour to state— Ist, That the gross amount of duties on imports and tornagr, which aterued from the Ist of January to the 30 b of September last inclusive, is estimated at 17,800.000 ; and that of tl:e whole year, at 21,000,000. llf dna sum, that portion which accrued in the first ballot' the year is about 1,000,000 less than that of the rime period in the preceding year; and that which &rented in the three first quarters of the year is animated at 1,700:006 lea than that of the corresponding quarters of the preceding year. 2d, That the debentures issued during the three first guartes of the year 1823. amounted to 3,412,010, which exceed the amount histitd during the corresponding period of the year 18fl. by 1,600,000 ; and the amount of the debentures outstanding on the 30th of Septnnber last, and eltrzgeable upon the revenue of 1824. w . 1,405,00 U, which is 4;00,000 more than was on the same day is 18'22 cha-grable upon the revenue of 1323. 3d, That the value (*domestic articles exported frem the United States, in the year ending on the 311t11 of September last, amounted to 47,153.711 ; being 2,7113.368 less than those exported in the year precedir.g ; and the value of foreign articles exported in the year ending on the 30th of September last was 27,330,409 ; beag 6.214,267 more than those exported in the preceding year. 4th, That the aggregate value of the impacts lotto the United States dump , the year ending on the 20th of September last, is esti mated at 71,486,332; which is less by 5,733,in than those im ported in the preceding year. 6th, 'l'hat the amount or custom-haute bonds in suit, which, re the Ellth of September, Int was 3.130,t00, *as on the same day. in the tear 1i122, 2,766.000, and in the year 1823, 2.817.144 00 whence it appears that, although a reduction a 313 OW hod take: place daring the whole period, yet the amount in suit on die Set; of September last, was greater by than on the same day a the year preceding. Upon a consideration of all these emithe conclusions dodo. Bible from them, the receipts front ins in the year 1824 may be CWllllll[l4 at 16,400,100. A eon.iderable portion f the lands relinquished under the Ad of the td of March, 1821, will be brought Imo market in the en suing year; but as it is yet uneertaio to what extent this mar be deemed advisable, and es the sale of these lands will probable absorb a great portion of the means of thaw who are pretwed to make investments in the public lands, it is comaidereel pred , r; trot to estimate the receipts from this source of revenue at •re than I,6oo,ooo—although it is believed that they will amyl 111111 Under these cirrumetances, the receipts of the year 1824 may be estimated as fil:own i—Cuatonis 16,W:ill); public lards, 1,1811,000; bank dividends, 380,01;0; inci.:entai receipts, includ ing arreareof internal duties and direct tax, eO,OOO ; repayments a advances made in the war department for services or supplies Fri , r to July 1, 1810, 30,600, making together 13,140,000 ; w wbieh to he added, the sum of 0,4644968 30 remainirg in the Treasure after satisfying all the appropriations chargeable upon the moo of 1823, which makes the entire means of the year 11014 amount ,o 25,018,909 The expenditures of the year 1824 are estimated as follows : Civil, diplomatic, and miscellaneous, 1.814,857 32; military wT• vices, includingtetifidtitns,ordnaree, Indian department, reTclu" tionaly and military pensions, arming the militia, and armors prior to the tat of January, 1817, 5,152 2118 15; naval service.
