ITynnA, SEPT:t i I ) 1823.-r-The prennt letter I t will confirm to you t ;news which I transmitted by my two last letters of Au :22'and 20, which I announced to you as coming by way of 'ghorriibut which I had no time to send to Sires or Napoli de Romatii, wherethe vessels are, on account of the embargo whichahe Weal government of this place has laid on all vessels, because the Greek fleet is preparing to sail All three, therefore, will reach you together, they leaving till,* place to-day, by a vessel pound to Trieste. Yo i will learn by them what has passed up to that time : and I now inclose you copies of two letters which I have received relat.ve to the battle at Carpinissi, which was fought by the immortal Marcus Bot zaris, in which you will perceive the heroism with which he fought against the strongest body of the enemy, on which the Porte had thus founded itagreatest hopes. After the defeat of this corps, the Turkish fleet made sail from Missolongo, went to Milos, and having experienced some resistance, did not die. embark, but continued its course coasting the islands of Faros, Sires, Tino, Miconos, &c. without stopping at any island ex cept at Sires, where it left two frigates. It is not yet known whether or not it will go to Mitylene, to Scio, or if it will re turn to Constantinople, to pass the winter there. The Greek fleet sailed from hence yesterday, and remained duringlhe night oft' the island, without being able to make any prOgressein consequence of a gale of wind blowing against it. It waits for nothing, therefore, now but fine weather, to proceed and attack the enemy. The vessels of the Hydriots are twenty in number, including four sfire-ships ; those of the Spezziots amount to eighteen, including alio two fire-ships; those of the Ipsariots are fifteen, includiniaalso.two fire-ships. The Spec ziots have not yet come out, but they have written that they are to sail in three days. The liefariots and the Hydriots have re solved, however, to fight without the others, if they do not join them in time. We all hope, that if the Greek fleet meets the Turkish fleet, the former will conquer; as the Greeks have con quered on shore, because the, Greek Admiral Miauli is at sea, while Marcus otzaris was on land. The Turks ' to the•ainount of six thousand, who had invaded the island of Negropont, have gone into Attica, near Athens, and our troops have tiken up their old positions at Negropont. At present attention is directed. towards attacking the corps which has penetrated into Aiticia: I send you the copy of a letter from the • Captain of the Salarnandre, a French ship of war, in which you will see the intrigues that are made use of to sow divisions among the Greek Islands. It seems to me to merit publication in sonic of your newspapers, that the ill conduct -of this Captain may reach the ears of the French Government. HY DUA, Au0.,22, 1023.—1 t is now more than a month since I arrived here to take with me M , one of the most distinguished . patriots of Hydra, and come to you to make a loan. But in consequence of the situation of Greece, menaced both by sea and land, we resolved to wait some time longer, to ascertain better the condition of our country. The Greek fleet, for want of money, finds some difficulties in pre- paring for sea. Lord Byron is expected here with o p en arms ; he is at present at Cephalonia, and from him pecuniary succour to enable the fleet to put to sea is expected. Missolongo has been blockaded for three months by the Turkish fleet, and menaced' by the troops of Omar Pacha and Jussel Pacha, and by those of Scodra Pacha, lately arrived with 14,000 men, who have penetrated as far as Agrapha. Missolongo was in a critical situation, and its fate was a sub ject of alarm. lien. Marcus Botzaris, who was at Missolongo, and saw the melancholy situation of the country, which is a bulwark of Western Greece and of the Peloponnesus, resolved to go and attack the enemy at Agrapha. He arrived there, united his troops with those of the other Chiefs of that neigh bourhood, and fought a battle which was one of the most splendid and most glorious to be found either in ancient or modern history. I inclose you a copy of the Bulletin, which arrived here this mourning. This battle has decided the fhte of Greece fir this year, because all the hopes of the Turks were placed on Scodra Pacha, and by his being beaten, and his troops dispersed, all the other corps and chiefs are pa ralysed. Ilere, then, the Greeks are victorious fir another year. I expect we shall soon set out for your country. Greece, abandoned by the rest of Europe, hopes to find in your country all those succours which are necessary for its rege neration. Marcus Botzarls has left a wife and children, who are un fortunately at Ancona, and have need of assistance to enable them to live. I recommend them to your attention, and I bey of you to recommend them to your philanthropic Cow -1 matte. flys - saw, Avo. 23, 1823..-1- confirmed my last letter by a copy yesterday by the way of Celibaloula ; ,und I hope soon to have news of other facts equally brilliant to communicate to you. The successor of Marcus Botzaris is his younger bro. ther, about 32 years of age, Constantine Botzaris, who was pro. claimed General by his brother's victorious troops after his death, on the field of battle. This Chief is in pursuit of die retreating enemy. He also is a meritorious Suliot, and worthy 'to be the brother of Marcus. The Greek fleet is preparing to go to sea, to meet the enemy. The following is a copy of the letter front the French Captain alluded to above : " Naxia, on board the Salamandre, July 22, 11123. " Sir—l have had en interview with you. I have told you what the Commandant of the French naval force in the Le. vent desired me to tell you, viz. that the Latin and Greek Ca tholics, and any others, were under the protection of of France, and that. the naval force of his Majesty the king of France would oppose and would prevent by force, if you laid ob. statics in its way, any imposts whatever being, laid on the property of the French Consul, of the religious people, and of the Latin and Greek Catholics, which would piece them in opposition to that neutral conduct which they wish to observe. I have to desire you will remove the sequestra tion which you have laid on their property ; if you do not, !shall report it to time Commandant of the division at Nausea; and, in the mean time, I shall act according to the orders which he has given me. I send an officer with this, by whom I beg you will send me back the order to remove the sequestration which you have laid on the 'property of the Catholics ; a nd, p articularl y , I desire that you will not dispute about words and phrases, because it ap pears to me that I have said what it was necessary to say, and I e. 31 not change a single word of what I have said, and of what I have written to you : and if I do not obtain what I de sire tomorrow, or the day after to-morrow, the Commandant himielf, and two other vessels with him, will be here, and it is very probable that the same thing will happen to Naxia which took place at Sire. I warn you very seriously that lam not of a disposition to allow myself to be amu s e d wit h wo r ds , nor will I be put off, and I will immediately put an end to these proceedings ; and as soon as I receive your answer I shall act according to the orders I huve received. The officer whom I send to you has orders to bring me back your answer, yes or no, to what I demand of you.

" To Mr. Photius Caraparo, at Trimalia." ZANTP., Oor. 25.—Letteri from Tripolitzs announce that the Chiefs of the Peloponnesus, agitated by the intrigues of Theodore Negris, having opened their eyes to the danger to .which their discord may give rise, have abjured their resent ulnas, and resolved to devote themselves wholly to the interests ,of their country. Six Commissioners have been appointed to luperintead the national treasury, .in which the public revenue will be deposited, and to give a faithful account of the pro. erects. Two of these six Treasurers have been chosen from the t Pelepennesians, two from the Primates of Beinelia, and two fiOrn the Eparchs of time Cyclades, or Isles of the /Egean Sea. 1 In consequence of this regulation, Many patriotic donations ' hate been presented to. the Government. Colocotroni has given 0,000 piastres, and his example having been generally fellow ed, money his been sent to Hydra to pay 18 brigs of war, , whiCh are to blockade the fortress of Patras by sea, while Colo- Rotroid is to invest it by land. The same naval division is also destined to succour Miesolonghi in case of need. This last Place has no* in its batteries 66 pieces of c a nnon, a trench of ' 66 feet in breadth on the side of l‘yratisirinis, and a numerous garrison, which will be re-inforced until the surrender of the fortress of Patras. All penions have been withdrawn from the town whose presence wan not absolutely necessary for its de. fence. The Government, occupied with every measure which can contribute to the public safety, has sent orders to the Go vernors of Pyrgos and Gastonni to get ready as soon as possi. ble 20,000 bushels of wheat for the service of the Greek armies of Patras and Emile. FILA Nr Kl' 0 uT, Nov. 16.—T h e Oriental Spectator affirms 'that on the 26th of September, eix Algerine ships captured two Spanish vessels near Chesme, and landed the crews at Rhodes. This journal, which is always written in the interest of the 'lurks, says, that both the Mussubriane and the Greeks begin to wish that their contest was at an end. " Negropont, Tema, and Attica," it says, " do not furnish the Turkish treasury with more than li million of piasters, and it costs four mil lions annually to keep them in subjection. This sacrifice is the Irian severely felt, as the Piirte, during the war, does not re. fleiveithove a third of its ordinary revenues. The Greeks, on • the other hand, .so long as the war lasts, lead a life of danger, 'between desolation and slavery„, death and banishment. Itl:ven qf' they liiiiiild maintain 'their independenee, . the expense of thdir I;ovetnment , and military establishment would be double I illf,tollllo they jusid the Porte. T hus it is for the interest of ' both parties, anti partietilarly of the . G reeks, to coma , to a speedy arrangement of their diffetences.t ) - . FO►R THE SUN. SPANISH BONDS. Eni•roa--Whilst the public mind k kept in a state of uncertainty respecting the recog nition or annullment of the Spanish Bonds, it may not be improper to call the, attention of the Bond-holders, to the fact, that in tire Convention entered into between the British Government and the Constitutional Government of Spain, respect- ing the indemnity claimed by the British Mer chants for the piracies committed in the West Indies, it was an arrangement specifically agreed to, and accepted by our Government, that the claimants, on making good their claims, should receive in lieu of payment thereof, Spanish Bonds, at the rate they might be selling at in the London market. This convention has been ratified by Spain since Ferdinand issued his famous Decree of the Ist of October, and it remains to be seen whether the British Government will not compel him to recognise his Bonds, the more especially as the very acceptance of these Bonds, by the Government, as a good and valid payment to the British claimants, was a strong inducement for many pedple to speculate in them. A CONSTANT READER. LINCOLN COUNTY ELECTION. LINCOLN, Nov. 24.—An unusual degree of activity now prevails in this city in the preparations for the approaching contest ; for it seems now certain, that Sir Win. Ingilby's claim to the vacant seat in the representation of the county will not be admitted without a struggle on the part of a considerable body of the freeholders. The circumstances in which this opposition originated, and under which it is likely to be carried on, are somewhat novel ; and as the election itself will probably attract no small share of public attention, a brief outline of them may not be deemed unimportant.--,Soon after the death of the late Lord Yarborough, and the consequent accession of his eldest son to the House of Peers, a considerable body of the freeholders of Lincoln looked to Sir R. Heron as his probable successor. The Honourable Baronet offered himself to the county, and from the general knowledge of his character and principles, it was thought his canvass would be successful. Finding, however, that he had a competitor for the honour in the person of Sir William Amcots Ingilby, who it was soon discovered was supported by a considerable number of those upon whose assistance he (Sir Robert) had previously calculated, the Honourable Baronet withdrew his pretensions for the present. However, before he took that step, a letter was addressed to him by a freeholder (Mr. Wells, who opposed Mr. Scarlett at Peterborough), in which he called upon him to state whether, in case he should be returned, he would support Radical Reform in Parliament, " an equitable adjustment of contracts" (as it is called), and a reduction of the interest of the national debt? In case his answer should be in the affirmative on these points, he (Mr. Wells) pledged himself to use his utmost exertions to support him. To these questions the Hon. Baronet answered (through one of the county papers), professing his advocacy of reform and retrenchnient,but declining the contest for the county at present, for the reasons which have been above alluded to. A similar letter was then sent by the same party to Sir W. Ingilby, but the lion. Baronet paid it no attention. It was then resolv ed by Colonel Johnson, 11.1 1 . for Boston, and several other freeholders, that Sir John Hayford Thorold, Bart., of Syston (near Grantham ),ehould be applied to offer himself for the repre sentation of the county. To this application it appears the Hon. notfrable Baronet gave a very unwilling ear, and at length posi tively declined. The parties who made the application were not discouraged tw the seeming unwillingness of the lion. Baronet, and'atifi gave - 'Utit confidently that it was intended to put him hi nomination ; anti one or" them (Colonel Johnson) went so far as to pledge its honour to the county, that if no other person should come forward for that purpose, he himself would put Sir John Thorold in nomination ; and if it was wished, demand a poll in his behalf. In the mean while his friends were not idle ; and on the 21st a placard, of which the following is a copy, was stuck up and distributed in seve r a l parts of - Lincoln and its vicinity : " I.lNcotig Cot's TY ELECTlON.—Freeholders, — The in dependance of the county is threatened ! and a great Vhig Lord, forgetting that the election of representatives belongs to the people, is resolved to force an unknown stranger upon us. " Let us not, however, disgracefully submit to such an in suit ! Let us, one and all, unite to repel this insolent aggression, and convince these usurpers of our rights, that we are not, and will not be, the slaves of any man. " Let us hasten to Lincoln, and give our free and unhought votes for Sir John Thorold, who Is well known to us, and who will most certainly be proposed on Tuesday next by Colonel Johnson and other independent gentlemen of the county. " Freeholders! you have an important duty to discharge. Arise, then I hurry to the poll Reject Lord Yarborough's no minee, Sir W. Ingilby; anti vote for Sir John Thorold, the freedom of election, and the independence of the county. " Nov. 21, 11123." On the next day, Sir Win. Ingilby's committee issued ano ther placard, to the following effect : " LINCOLNSHIRE. ELECTION.—IMPORTANT TO TILE ELECToas.—ln consequence of a notice to the High Sheriff of this County, which appeared in the last Lincoln Papers, signi fying that Sir John Hayford Thorold, Bart., would be pro posed and nominated on the day of Election as a Candidate to represent this County in Parliament, a deputation from Sir W. Anicotts ingilby'a Committee this day waited upon Sir John 'Thorold, to receive his sentiments respecting it, when Sir John Thorold was pleased to declare to the gentle men forming that deputation, that the notice alluded to met his decided disapprobation ; and that he had written to Mr. Wells, one of the gentlemen who had signed it, most strongly expressive of that disapprobation, and of his fixed resolution in no way to lend his sanction to the measure. Sir John Thorold further stated, that, at his request, Sir Robert Heron, Bart., would declare the same from the hustings on Tuesday, hav ing concluded that his own attendance at Lincoln on that day might seem to give countenance to proceedings so contrary to his wishes. " CHARLES ANDERSON, Chairman. " Committer room, Lincoln, Nov. 22, 1823." On the same date a Committee of Freeholders met at Gran. thatu, and published the following notice e— " Orentham, Nov. 22, 1823. " At a very numerous Meeting of the Freeholders of Gran tham and the neighbourhood, held this day— " Resolved, That Sir John Hayford Thorold is a proper person to.eepreeent the county of Linc Olin in Parliament on the present vacancy. " That the freeholders now assembled will endeavour to pro mote his return'to the best of their ability. " That as the best menus of doing so, they engage to attend at Lincoln on the day of nomination on Tuesday next. " That in the event of a poll being demanded, they will vote for Sir J. 11. Tltorold, and exert their influence to secure his return. "That this meeting be adjourned to this place at 10 o'clock on Thersday.next. "W. T. CAT LET T, Chairman. " N.B. The handbills issued by the Lincoln Committee on the 22d, were put out to prevent the friends of Sir John Hay ford Thorold from attending.—Nov. 24, 11123." Thus matters rest at present. The gentlemen who have un dertaken to act as Sir John Thorold's Committee are still de. termined to go on with his nomination,, and to demand a poll. At present, we believe, even they themselves are not very san. guine in their expectations of success ; hut we are assured that they intend to keep open the poll as long as the law allows. The High Sheriff, Sir Wm. Earle \Velby, has fixed to-morrow, the lath, for the nomination, and the day following fOr the election. It is sail, that Sir Charles Anderson , Ba rt., will p ro p ose, and Major Craycroft second, Sir W. A. Ingilby. Cot. Johnson, it is added, will nominate, and Mr. Wells, of Peterborough, se cond Sir John Thorold. It may , be necessary to add, that the parties of both the candidates (if Sir John can be called one) are in opposition to those of Ministers. The difference between them in this point is said to be, that Sir J. Thorold'e opinions are more inclined to radical reform than those of Sir William In gilby. The utmost activity prevails on both sides. Sir William's friend's have engeged the three princip al inns—the Rein Deer, the Saracen's Head, and White Hart. T he onl y h ous e as yet engaged for Sit.J. Thorold's Commit tee is the S p read Ea g le. The city is beginning to bc cr owded with freeholders, and it is thouir that if the contest proceeds, there will not be a spare bed to e-had.in Lincoln in a, few days. It will all, of course. dependent 'the turn which af f airs may take on the hustings t o , morrow. LITER,ART NOTICE. NARRATIVE of a JOURNEY through FRANCE, ITALY, SAVOY, SWITZERLAND, &c. by JAMES HOLMAN, R. N. and K. W. 1 vol. llvo. Since the Continent has been thrown open to the inquisitixe ‘ dleivition of our countrymen, we taste . beed suffeitea' with continental tours of every possible denomination. The traveller who has explored the mo,t interesting countries, has not been more ready to give us the result of his picturesque, literary, geological, or mineralogical researches, than the idler who merely crossed the channel to see whether they did indeed " ma nage these things better in France." That many of those numerous publications contain much in structive and amusing matter we readily allow ; but whilst there is no inconsiderable number that are sadly deficient in both of these requisites, even in the best, the same objects are so fre quently described, that it awakens in us when ever we meet them only feelings of ennui. If this is our opinion, we may well be asked, why we now call the attention of our readers to an other tour upon the Continent. Our answer is, that our curiosity was awakened by the novelty of a continental tour, performed by a person wholly deprived of the sense of vision. The rare desire of visiting distant parts when so situated, seems truly original ; ; ,and when we state that the gentleman actually travelled alone, and without any previous knowledge of foreign languages, the circumstance must appear still more deserv ing of notice. According to nor author, no sooner had he re covered from the shock his privation of sight na turally occasioned, than the improvement of his other senses,.especially of feeling, not only af forded him both pleasure and comfort ; but he soon acquired an almost invincible inclination for travelling, and having indulged this laudable propensity in his native country, no sooner nits peace finally established upon the continent, than h• determined to extend his excursions abroad. It was not only the improvement in the sense of touch ; but still more the acquisition of an unde finable power, resembling instinct, and which gave him in a lively manner ideas of whatever is going forward, that strengthened his wishes of travelling. Regardless, therefore, of the fears of his friends, and relying, perhaps, upon his own helpless situation, for compassion and protection, he quitted England, and successively visited France, Italy, Switzerland, the banks of the Rhine, Holland, &c. We are happy to find that with only a few exceptions, his hopes of being kindly and even honestly treated, were not disappointed, and more especially amongst the females, he met a willingness to oblige and assist him, for which he expresses his gratitude. After an absence of about two years, he reached Eng land in safety, ; and highly gratified with his ex . cursion. The peculiar situation of the Author naturally gave rise to occasional singular occurrences, which he narrates with singular good humour. Indeed be appears to have set out with the laudable deter mination of being pleased, and he was pleased. Even though he travelled only upon known ground, and has , often made use of the descrip tions of others, his simple narrative will still be read with interest and pleasure. No less active, than inquisitive, he appears to have lost no op portunity of visiting all that was worthy of being seen; and of acquiring the most correct inform'. from the persons whom he chanced to meet, or from the friends to whom he was recommended. THE LATE HORRID MURDER. lIIRTFORD GAOL.—Every day some curious incident, although involved in an air of mystery, from the man ner in which the statements are insinuated, is hinted respecting the approaching trial. It is an undoubted fact,• although the near approach of the trial renders premature disclosures impro per, the statements have been made which will on the trial re. move all doubt respecting the particulars of the murder of 31r. Weare, and the identity of the perpetrators of that crime. A new feature in the evidence was discovered in an examina tion of a witness last Sunday at Watford, before Mr. Clutter buck and Mr. Mason. It will be re.;ollected, that at the supposed hour of the murder, near eight o'clock in the evening, a Mr. Smith, who was In an adjoining road to Gill's hill cottage, pro ceeding at that hour to meet his wife, heard the report of a gun or pistol, and at the same moment some indistinct groans ; and also that his wife, and nurse who was attending her, and who were approaching from the contrary direction, and much nearer the supposed spot of the murder, confirmed her husband's evi dence, but with a better opportunity of hearing the groans, which for two or three minutes followed the sound of the gun or pistol. On Sunday, we are informed, that on a closer era . mination of the nurse, (she was h n pony or donky chaise at the time with Mrs. Smith) she declares that when this groaning ceased, the audibly and distinctly heard from the same spot the voices of Iwo persons in earnest conversation ! Mr. Williams (of the firm of Williams and Goddard) is des solicitor who, 4 employed for and in communcation with Pro to a communication made yester daybo f e r t t b i e n l l n l a n e d r i t:f e r o has, r s d h , a r a i p ft c pyi a e r n d d d i to Mr. t o r s G , s o s r o g: i ate Nicholson, with tit A ebrother Jenkins, Ir. of Red Lion-square, in the conduct of the prosecution, to say that Probert has desired him to tender an important commu nication to the agent for the prosecution, provided his ( Probert's) case would be considered as affected by the Lona fide merit of what he should 'state. The rumoured reply of Mr. George Nicholson was, that he could enter into no arrangement whatever with Probert ; but that if he desired to make any communica tion to him, he should be ready to receive it, and give to it that consideration which its nature may require. It was also added, that l'robert's communication wo u ld upon t hi s understanding be made. On Sunday last Mr. Williams repaired to St. Alban's gaol to see Mrs. Probert, and to inform her of the situation of her husband. She was in bed at the time, and indisposed. Her answer is said to have been, that, under present circumstances, and until after the trial, the preferred holding no correspondence with her husband. Mr. Williams was recognized by her as a gentleman who had some time ago called to bargain for Gill's hill cottage. Hunt and Probert are extremely dejected. Thurtell continues unmoved, although more serious than when first commited. H e is very attentive to his person, wears a new blue coat with a high collar, a buff waistcoat with metal buttons, and black trousers, is shaved • regularly every morning, and has a constant change of linen. His manners are respectful, and frank almost to an excess in answering the questions which are put to him ; but the greatest caution is recommended and observed in touch ing upon the question of the guilt ascribed to him.
