The Time: of Saturday, alluding to some expressions of the Deputy GALEANO and General Ritmo, at the Lamfauna= Patriotic Society, affords a remark able specimen of this fretful captious mood, which must have excited no little surprise in those who compared the harsh censure of that journal with the circumstance that provoked it. An unlucky propensity to bolt and run out of the course-4 fail ing, by the way, most commonly observable in steeds of the highest mettle—appears to be a distinguishing characteristic of our contemporary, The limes; and we are now induced to notice the thing, chiefly because the present is neither the first, nor the only instance in which we have observed it. The Deputy GALIANo, speskiog of the threat ened invasion of Spain by France, says : " If war be declared against Spain, it will prove the destruc tion of tyrants. The Spanish nation, forgetting the differences of opinion among themselves, end especially those which divide the Liberal., and, sup ported by their representatives (who, like the Ro man Senators, will never abandon their curule chairs), and, strengthened by the justice of their holy cause, cannot fail to be victorious ; and their triumph will be that of all Europe. Let us he united and we shall be invulnerable." The Ge neral, in the same strain, ob , "Our present army is very different front that of 1808. It was then commanded by Generals who were destitute of knowledge and talents, and whet committed the most glaring errors; but now we have a MINA, BALLAIITZRoS, an ABIANAL, and other General., who will lead oar soldiers to victory. Since the former period, young officers have bees educated who are filled with patriotic ideas. Citizens, fear not ! we shall overcome our enemies, and the signal of attack will be for us the signal of victory." . • Upon these expressions the 7iNses makes the fol lowing remarks We observe that whilst the war.psrty of Framer are es aggeratiug their power, and predicting the rertaiuty of their swami shook! 'bey invade the Peninsula, the most :Wein of the Liberal Party in Spain, on their side,are e.lgs loudly declaring their means of resistance, and showing bow easily they could repulse the enemy. It might be pohtie is Mm who expects to be attacked, to deter the aggressor ley, letting bins know that he will sweet with swarm Inception: bat to urge to the assault simply on the amens= of seperior Bumph, is at once taro/eat and unjust" •I _ _ Now we should he glad to know by whet mode of reasoning the expressions imputed to the Deputy and the General, can be made to imply • disposition on their parts, to urge to the assault ?" The comprebenaiwit PAW with which the declaration of the Dcpstxtiegins, at once qualities and explains the meaning Of the whole sentence ; and is, to our minds, entirely exculpatory of the charge of " urging. to the assault." He does net call upon his coutitty to begin the attack. He says only (and we trust he says truly) that " tr mar be declared against Spain, it will pruve the destruction of tyrants ! ;4t . The pith of to General Risoo's speeibiiin the words—" and the signal of attack will be for we tbg signal of victo►y." This expression may, perhaps, be more equivocal than that of the Deputy: and yet, we think, that when an insulated sentence admits equally of two meanings, it would be but fair to give the preponderance to that which ac cords most with the tenor of the speech of which it forms • part. It appears quite clear that both the Deputy and the Gamut, spoke not of teen:ire but defensive operations; and that, in so doing, they did no more than the Times, under the peculiar circumstance', thinks it might be "politic" to do, namely—" to deter the aggressor, by letting him know that he will meet with a warm reception." To pounce upon such expressions as these, abd to brand them with the epiiheis of "insolent and unjust," •hews nothing but • Mina asperity of temper which falls foal of the first ol!ji et it meets, and spits itself into a state of composure. Rising ■hove the temporary contentions which embroil cootiguous oatious, and excite fur ■ Muir the curiosity Hod interest of all political inquirers, let us extend our view and our cdreful attention to who* the far deeper and more important struggle is carried on throughout the world between ancient •abose and modern improvemeut. For the purpose of taking this wide and comprehensive view of the course of human society, we can take our station on loftier ground, arid in a parer atmosphere then belong to temporary or pa►ty questions, and we eap. class among the friends of improvement many wise on incidental questions are our opponents. Mr. F. ROBINSON, the President of the Board Trade, statet‘ in his place in Parliament, that the great contest which. now agitated the feelings and divided the opinions of men, was a contest between InTaLuottsci and POWNR, and that it was im po►sible to doubt that the former deserved and would obtain the ascendancy.

But Rus sia lies buried in imperturbable ignorance and se vitude, as remote from the influences of thought and genius as from the climate of England. The most appalling consideration in the present state of Europe to the liberal politician, is the brute strength of Russia, destitute as she is of every mean, of C vilizatiou. It is mortifying to those who delight in contemplating the dignity and the destiny of man. to thin% of millions in the frost-bitten regions of the Nurth, who.cberish with, superstitious obstinacy the same structure of hovels, the same halrits.of filth, the same unthinking devotion to seisOless rites and Imperial Ukases under which their fa thers lived, suffered, and died.

After en interruption of three weeks, we have at length received intelligence from Larissa, up to the 6th of this month. In the middle of October, Chourtchid_Pachu hawing obtained the long-ex. peeled reinforcements from Romelia and Macedo nia, commenced his march on the 20th towards Zelbury, with a view to advance again across Ther. mopyle. In some engagements which took place on the 22d and 24th of October, Cl►ourschid was completely defeated, ■nd sustained a loss of 7,000 men. The Greeks tiursued him to the eovirio•a of Larissa. The Seraskier, Chourschid, had scarcely arrived in that city, when he found • firmest of the Sultan, recalling him to Constantinople, pro• haldy to render an account of Alt's treasures, and his own unsuccessful operations. Abdallah, Pacha of Salonica, has been appointed bis successor ; he is already collecting fresh troops to recruit the Ottoman' armies, and to make, it is said, a winter campaign in the Mores. Much curiosity is excited as to the line of conduct which Chows. chid will pursoe ; whether he will voluntarily re sign his command, or find some pretence for avoid. ing the fate which to all appearauce awaits him at ! Constantinople. CONSTANTINOPL; OCTOBIIt 25. . The new Internuncio, Baroo d'Ottenfels, had his audience of the Grand Seignior on the 15th, the pay day of the Janissaries. As the Ministers of the Porte knew that Baron d'Ottenfels spoke the Turkish language with fluency, they retreated him to make use of it during the audience, with which the Internuncio complied without difficulty. The Austriam Observer publishes the most minute *tails relative to die ceremony, in which there was a little deviation from former usage. For instance, the laternuncio having been intruduced into the pre . ience•chausber. was expected to remain at a re ' spectful distance ; but, on this occasion, the Sultan desired him. to approach so near to the throne that herettld-lay his credentials upon it. The Inter. nuncio having. anode a speech is the Turkish . Ilingosge, the Salton replied, to the great astonish ment of all the spectators, and said to the Baron, 1 4 As relations of amity are firmly established be ! tween the two countries, my imperial desire, my unalterable pleasure is, that they should be more and more consolidated, io conformity with existing treaties." • • The Sultan afterwards looked at the Vizier, self he meant to soy it was time he should explain this imperial sentence; but whether the Vizier hid lost his recollection at the moment, or that he was struck with the singularity of the scene, he had no sooner Pronounced the Sultan's titles them be stopped. The Sultan seeing the eredentiah in the hands of the Internuncio, and that nobody stepped forward to demand them, so much were they all astonished at what had taken place, pointed to the part of the throne on which they ought to be laid. The oldest Copidschi-baschi then took them from the Barite, and gave them into the hands of the Grand Vizier, who placed them upon the throne, and the Grand Seignior birched them with his baud, as a token of favour.--f4tittrixig Observer.
