GREEK COMMITTEE. The following translation will, without any comment, suffice to refute the reports malevo lently circulated of the re-appearance of anarchy amidst the infant institutions of Greece. The Government of that interesting country is in fact not weakened, but strengthened by the recent changes. The disinterested patriotism which prompts the illustrious writer, Mavrocordato, to bestow a deserved eulogy on a political change which transfers him to a subordinate station, bar mouizes with his conduct and character, to which the writer of the Precis Historique prefixed to " The Constitution of Greece," has done merely justice. " The Constitution of Greece" itself, and the various State Papers which are subjoin&l, breathing as they do in politics the new spirit of liberality, and in religion - more than mere tolera tion, alFird sufficient refutation of the unsupported charges of bigotry and jacobinism, which have been so liberally urged against the Greek nation and cause. CIRCULAR NOTIFICATION TO THE GERMAN' AND SWISS PIIII.IIELIENIC COMMIT TEES PROM TILE PRESIDENT OP THE EXECUTIVE POWER OF THE GREEK GOVERNMENT. It is an agreeable duty to me to have to communicate to the Philhellenic Committees, that the National Assembly of Li berated Greece, which since the beginning of the present month has been assembled at Astros, on the Gulf of Napoli, and which is composed of the Deputies and Representatives of the Peloponnesus, of Eastern and Western Greece ' of the Islands of Crete and of Negropont, and o f t h e other freed islands in the Archipelago, has commenced its 'sittings, and that two days ago the Representatives for the present year transferred them selves to Trippolitza, the provisional' seat of the New Govern ment, after having elected as President of the Executive Go vernment Petro Mavromichali, late Prince of Alaina, a ve, nerable and aged Chieftain, beloved for his disposition, well known for his patriotism, and strong alike from his wealth, and front the general esteem of all Gre ece . I n lik e manner, John Orlando, a Hydriot, well-known for his probity and en lightened patriotism, has by general consent been elected Pre. sident of the Legislative Body. As the Representatives are at present engaged in appointing the Executive Power, I ant unable to name the Members which compose it, or the persons to whom the direction of the (lit. ferent branches of administration will be entrusted. The active interest in the destiny of Greece evinced on so many occasions, the noble eagerness to prove it which has been so often shown, and the redoubled efforts to procure succours, which have often reached us, persuade me that I shall create in the generous Members of these committees, and in every other Mend to our just and holy cause, a lively joy, which, with the gratitude of ail Greece, 1 consider as but a slight recompense for all that they have done and are doing for the happiness of my country, by telling them that the present state of affairs justifies the most flattering hopes of the deliverance Of Greece, which, by the protection of the Supreme Being, by assistance from our well wisher., and by the firm and unshakable courage of its defenders, will continue to support itself as heretofore against the utmost efforts of its natural, implacable, and cruel enemies. It', without considering the existing state of affairs, it may be permitted to human reason to calculate for the future on the Means which have produced the happy results of the last year, we may henceforward expect the most welcome events. Greece was, as is now generally known, throughout the last year, in so dangerous a crisis; that her fall appeared inevitable ; but battling all calculation's, she has overcome the greatest dif:. ficulties, and has escaped that abyss into which the efforts of the enemy her own intestine dissensions and the exhaustion of her finances threatened to plunge her, and she has escaped to become covered with glory. In _this catastrophe the Greeks spewed more than ever their firm resolution to free themselves, or to die; and the spirit which animated them in the most dis astrous position, has proved to a certainty that Greece never can be subdued. The New Government will assume, under the happiest auspices, the direction of the affairs of Greece, and assuredly will not have to contend against the difficulties and dangers which during the last year were combined to crush her. The National Assembly hits arranged a budget, and has pro mulgated fresh laws for the administration of the by Protects, and the national interests in general have been dis cussed. By adhering to the principles which have directed the labours of the Assembly, party spirit can never rule ; and, ex cepting the discontent of a few selfish individuals, whose per sonal interests are irreconcileable with the establishment of peace and order, perfect union exists throughout all the parts of our country. Experience has made the whole nation feel the want of a strong and efficient Government, and' the mass of the people is better prepared to receive it than it was last year. What can the intrigues of a few ambitious and malevo lent men effect against this unanimous wish of the people ? Thus an universal prayer' has been breathed for an attack on those Grecian provinces, which -still groan under the cruel yoke of our tyrants, and for the deliverance of our brethren, as the only method of preventing the enemy from att.scking us. Vie sok obstacle which at present opposes the speedy execution of this project, arises from a want of the necessary supplies of money, which we still trust may be removed by the assistance of those who wish well to liberty, and by the financial credit which Greece ought to derive from the great resources of the country, and from the heroism of its defenders. Among the friends who have hitherto assisted the. nation, the Committees of Germany and of .Switzerland have particu larly distinguished theMselves, by the great zeal with which they have struggled to procure us assistance ; and as head of the late Government I offer them the gratitude of my country, and my own personal thanks, for the active interest which they have hitherto shOwn us ; hut at the same time I request them, on the part of the new President (Who will personally COM. municate with them, as soon as the new Government shall have assumed the direction of affairs), to persevere in their generous effints to assist the cause of humanity. It is unhappily true, that hitherto the advantage resulting from these Committees has not been so great as the means em ployed might have rendered possible. The reason is, that from want of a regular and direct communication with the Govern ment of Greece, her friends were not enabled to ascertain the state of affairs, and 'were thus prevented from immediately send. big those succours, which were the most desirable, and would have been the most efficacious. The agonizing crisis of the last year, and my absence from the seat of Government, were the causes of this, and the activity of the Persians dispatched to the Committees has been paralysed, from reasons with which the Committees are doubtlessly acquainted. , Anxious to remove these hindrances, and desirous of profiting better in future than we have hitherto done, by the zeal of the friends of our nation, and aware that the means of correspondence are neither sullici. ently speedy nor safe, the new Government will shortly' send to the several Committees a confidential agent, invested with the necessary powers, and commissioned to treat with t h em on the interests of Greece, to encourage our friends, and to fur n i s h the necessary information, to enable the Committees to direct their labours in the manner most advantageous to Greece. At the same time our Envoy will endeavour to find means of es tablishing a regular correspondence between the Government and the Committees. In the mean time I send, in concert with the new President, the suggestions of the Government on the path to be now pur sued. The Committees are requested : Ist. To receive no Envoy coming from Gree ce w h o shall not . be furnished with proper vouchers, and with the necessary . an _ thorny from the Cep„ e l G overnm ent, and to un d ertake the exe. cation of no commission which shall not, have pr ocee d e d from the same source. Without these precautions, whatever assist_ ance may be sent, will be totally lost to the nation. 2dly, To collect pecuniary aid.

Tripolitza, April 22, 1823, the third year of Liberty. ,T (Signed) The p res i dent of the Exectitive,Powei, MA VROCORDATO. (A true M. 11I2ZEL Zurich, July 17, 1110., THE SPANISH'COMMITTEE. We have heard of complsitits having been urged against the Members of the Spanish Com mittee for inertness in that department Of their duty which related to occasional cad *militat ing appeals to the public in favour of the cause they are otherwise assiduously promoting; and struck with the apparent justice of such cusation, we thought it our duty to satisfy our selves respecting it from the best authority With in our reach, and it is with real pleasure we find that too much prudence, rather than any de ficiency of zeal, has hitherto occasioned their silence. The Spanish Committee, it appears, have long entertained an earnes‘ desire to make a further appeal to the public in favour, of the Spanish Cause ; but however unshaken and undiminished has uniformly been the confidence of the Mem hers composing it, in the character, courage, and constancy of Spaniards,' they could not but per,:. ceive the unfortunate impression made upon the public mind, arising more probably from a too great reliance on the Bulletins and degrading falsehoods exclusively published and conveyed through the heyer•ted medium of the French Press, than from a just view of . the 'actual state of things in the Peninsula, and a fair calculation of the inferences to be deduced from it. As long as such a prejudice existed, they considered any efforts on their part to remove it would be inef fectual, and therefore they determined to wait for that re-action which they confidently antici pated, and which should speak for itself. Acknowledging the justice of their sentiments, still we are of opinion .that the very anticipations of the Committee are already sufficiently realized to admit the expectation that hopelessness, des. pair, ,or even economical prudence, will no longer impede the natural dictates of just and generous hearts, and for:these reasons : It is notorious that the Ministry of San Mi guel placed such reliance on the result of British mediation as to have been completely deceived (until a late period in the negociation) re specting the probable occurrence of any war at all between France and Spain. However inex cusable may have been such an impression or delusion, the unfortunate result was want of , time, as well as means, for due preparation to meet the enemy on the -opening of the campaign. The few troops actually in arms were, therefore, placed as garrisons in the most important of the fortresses, upon the security of which evidently depended almost every hope of a. protracted, and finally succesful struggle. This precaution ab sorbed nearly the whole of their regular effective force, .and left nothing in• the field capable of. contending with the armies of France, either in discipline or numbers. The result, as Might have been expected, has been (with the exception, indeed, of their fourth corps d'artnele), a military parade rather than a warlike movement on the part of the enemy froth the Pyrenees to the walls of Cadiz and Corunna. Neverthess, the Spat / ash army, although in two notorious instances the devoted victims of trea chery, has f a ithf u lly an d no bly discharged its duty whenever circumstances have permitted : it has steadily adhered to honour, its country, and its coustitution. Catalonia, Pampeluna, St. Se.. bastian, Santona, St. Andero, Logrono, Cadiz, and Corutma, bear witness to all Europe of its courage and patriotic devotion ! What, then, is wanting to its final triumph but time to levy and organize men, and means to clothe, arm, and equip them for operations in the field? The main tenance of their fortified towns insures the first, and British sympathy has the power (if gene rously exerted) of promoting the attainment of the last. If, as has been insidiously proclaimed, the ma jority of Spaniards are in favour of French aggression, why has it net appeared when the extension of the French army over the whole surface of the country has afforded ample scope for the developement of the national opinion, by removing every barrier to its manifestation? If, on the contrary (and as facts now indisputably announce), the authors of this unnatural and atrocious conflict shall appear to be a con temptible minority of unprincipled fanatics, urged on by the French Government to the parri cidal act forks own interests ; upheld by a French artny,and supported by French funds; those funds (with shame be it spoken !) partly derived horn British sources. If such be the real ruse, shall it be said that Britons, the friends of humanity, justice, and liberty—the advocates of the rights and of the law of nations, unfeelingly and pas sively contemplated this scene ,of iniquity, and refused, in the critical hour of unmerited dis tress, that succour which might now citable the oppressed portions of the Peninsula to vindicate their wrongs, and secure themselves, at least, from a direful persecution already commenced, from a malignant and cold-blooded despotism already officially announced as their future doom, and from a Holy Office (the Infernal Inquisition!) already re-establisbed,and preparing itsstakes for their further pu:ification by fire and faggot ? Will Englishmen, Scotsmen, or Irishmen, will the Ancient Britons in the west, after the undisputed proofs now given of firmness, fidelity, and self-de., votion to their country and its free institutions by; those already in arms (whose numbers are hourly increasing), yield any longer to an ungenetous and unmanly apprehension of the issue, and thus invoke, perhaps, a calamity they would affect to 'deplore, by withholding a relief which, in this hour of Spanish peril and depression, would go far to insure her deliverance from the degrading tiondage of French doininion. We may J!onti &nay assure ourselves that the Spanish Cum. mittee, under all and ever] variation , of fortune in the Peninsula, will continue zealously to dis.; charge the grateful duty entrusted. to its manage mentias long as public spirit here shall provide the meansi and unrelaxing perseverance in Spain shall warrant the application of them in its favour: Uappy are we to learn that the moral,effect already pro duced by England's bounty (though hitherto, lio limited) has been sensibly felt and•acknowledged by the Spaniards themselves. Let true British feeling but folloti up with energy and diapatch the impulse thus given to the national spirit of Spain, and every thing that can be.expected froan renovated hope, front increased -and daily in creasing confidence, and froth men resolved on death, rather than concession to atrocious inju. riesand insults, may, with confidence' be pre dicted.

He was take' into Mr. Miller's house until the arrival of Mr. Walton the constable ; and Mr. Miller coming home in the meantime; he began to tell, with a hardihood which it makes one shudder to think of, that it Wailds intention to have shot both Mr. lfor rocks and Mr. Miller; and that for this purpose he had tense time ago wished to purchase two pistols, but could not raise the money to pay for them. On being 'conveyed to the lock-up, he continued t o ev i nce the same diaboli ca l feeling, regretting more that lie had not sue; ceeded in his object,. than betraying any symptorni of an awakened conscience. He there stated, with the utmost cool-; ness and deliberation, that when lie left home in the morning, it was his purpose to have made the attack upon Mr. Miller. He had no expectation of meeting with Mr. Horrocks, for he had imagined thathe was confined to the house by sickness but knowing that Mr. Miller was very regular in his attendance at church with the Corporation, he made sure of an opportunity to effect his purpose against him. Fortunately, however, for Mr. Miller, he received a message, intimating that, owing to indisposition, the Mayor would not attend. church that morn.: ing; lie therefore went with his family to St. George's chap e l, and.thus escaped th e vengeanc e o f t h e assassin. This circum stance was of course uhknoWn to Ryding, who kept a strict 100k -out for, a full half hour before service was over. Instead of Mr. Miller, he at length saw Mr. Horrocks upon the church terrace, proceeding down the street, on which he followed him, at a few yard s ' di s t ance , unt il M r . ll orrocks had entered the gates, when he made a sudden run toperpetmte his wicked purpose. Witenquestioned upon hit moral sense of the crime, 'he at..' tempted to justify the deed, and said that lie had prayed to God from his heart. as he followed Mr. 'knocks, for direction and assistance in what he was going to do. lle held the same lag.: guage every time he was brought up for examination, and seemed to regret only th at h e had ritit dose the act two years before: It appears, from his" repeated declaration, that he formed the horrid idea immediately after the last turn-out of the spinners, in Mach and April, 1821. He hat never been in the'employ of Messrs. Horrocks and Co. since he was six or seven years of age, when he worked as a piecer in one of their factories for a short time: it was not, therefore, from any per-. sonal quarrel that he fixed upon Messrs. Horrocks and Miller is but considering them, to use his own expressions, as the ring.' leaders of the other masters, he was determined to make them answer for all. Shortly after he was taken into ctiatisdy, he said he had written an anonymous letter to Mr. Horrocks„ four months ago, warning him of his fate, unless he put on the 10 per cent. which wait taken from the wages of the spinners at the time • referred to. This .letter, we believe, is still is existence. • - When brought out for examinatio n o n M on d ay morning, he passed through the streets with a smile, approaching a laugh,. upon his countenan ce ; and when he catne before the Magi.. :orates, he declared that he had pot been so easy and happy in his mind for two years as he then felt himself. Mr. Iforrockst s hut, shirt, and coati all hestnesTed. with hlood, being opened out by the constables, the prisoner regarded them wittututthe least .token of remorse ; on the contrary, he, took up the hat, and in the coolest manner examined the cut occasioned by his murderous blow. On being asked if he was sober and in ,his' senses the day before, he appeared indignant at both queiticins. Ile Said he had not taste d a l e or any other intoxicating liquor for a fortnight, and that lie was as much in his senses at any body. The prisoner said that since the turn-out, he had worked at Manchester, Bolton, anti last at Mr. Vote's, in this town. He, however, felt so unsettled and uneasy in hie mind, that he could never stick to any thing,. but spoiled and neglected his work, and .was always turned off on that account in a tew weeks: Ile was always, he said, against fighting, and was never accus tomed to bloody deeds or any thing of that kind, otherwise be' should have done the business more effectually. - • Mr. Horrocks not being well enough to attend the Magi, strates, the prisoner was taken to his house in the afternoon to be identified. So far from being affected at the sight of Mr. 'knocks, the prisoner told him he would rather have seen him a corpse than in the state he saw him. And when Mr. Ilorroas, with that benevolent and, forgivingtlisposition which forms ito prominent and so bright a trait in his character, gave the wretched eulpriti to understand, that, notwithstanding his foul attenmt, he entertained no feeling of animosity against him, it did not soften his nature in the least degree. On Tuesday 'morning the final examination of witnesses in this atrocious case took place in the Governor's . parlour at the House of Correction, on which occasion the prisoner beu hayed in the same manner as before,. anti .talketl with ap palling familiarity and unconcern of the fate which he knew. awaited him. During this examination an incident OCCUId red which shewed the determined spirit by which he wiurattttat ed, Mr. Miller was present on the occasion, and the prisoner being questioned as to the pistols he had before spoken, of, .he said that if he could have bought them, he would have taken the opportunity, as the corporation came &Om church, when Mr. "knocks and Mr. Miller were there, to *hoot them, both if " and," continued he, looking at Mr. Miller, "if I had the means I would kill you now." Mr. Miller seeing the prisoner's eye turned towards a weight with a long handle to it, used for keeping doors open, he desi r ed t h e G over n or. to remove it; upon which Ryding observed it was well for Mr. Miller that that they had taken it away, for he had been on the watch , to seize it for some time ; anti if it had been as near to his right hand as it was to the left he should, before then, have tried to knock out the brains of Mr. Miller with it. The , wretched man was of course fully committed, on the capital charge of cutting and maiming, with intent to kill ; and on Wednesday morning was conveyed in a chaise to Lancaster, to be tried at the ensuing assikes. , The instrument usid on this occasion was a common kitchen cletiver,.matle throughout of iron, but having, most fortunately, a very. blunt edge; the assassin, according to lais own account, ,having been amid to sharpen it, for fear otitis being suspeeted 'that he was going to use it for some evil purpose. '- It will give pleasure tUMr. Harrocks's personal filenda, and indeed, to every one,:tolearn that the wounds inflicted hove not proved of, a very serious nature. .The cut at the tmehof .the head was the only one from which 'any fears were ever enter tained, and all apprehensions on - account of this are, now re moved.
