// ‘3'°7--ex,izoe_,, London, June 28, 1837. TO THE INDEPENDENT ELECTORS OF THE BOROUGH OF KINSALE. GENTLEM EN , ,-, AS an ear l y . Dissolution may now be regarded as certain, I may venture, without incurring the charge of -' pre sumpt i on, or indelicacy towards ycur present Member, to solicit your suffrages for the high h onour of representing you in the Im perial Parliament. The Address of 11Ir. Pierce Mahone has been for some time be ore you. It speaks for itself at great length; but I trust you will not deem me the less sincere, or the less anxious to serve your Bo rough, and to advance every measure calculated to benefit the People, if I refrain from trespassing upon you to the same extent, • nd reserve a detailed expression of opinion for the hustings in the presence of my opponents. ".. I shall not seek your favour by aspersing the Duke cf Welling ton, because, as a Roman Catholic, I feel that to him I am in debted for the removal of Civil Disabilities in 1829, and that too !., ill a full and generous manner, far surpassing any measure of relief : Propounded by the Parliamentary advocates of emancipation. It is true the illustrious Duke was urged on by public opinion and the F-, Pressing represent a ti ons o f t h e M ost N o bl e t h e M arqu i s o f An ,.!, glesea ; but with his characteristic decision he seized the happy moment, and placed us on an equality with our Protestant fellow ,E* objects. a', I would deem it inconsistent, even for election purposes, to seek and tarnish the fame of Wellington, recollecting that Mr. Mahony, th oug h a Protestant, was so penetrated with th healing effects of 2 the measure of 1829, that he published a Subscription List to raise a statue, or testimonial, which might bear to the remotest posterity the greatness of that Statesman, who accomplished a task which 4 ' the most enlightened had attempted in vain—which enfranchised a People, and saved the empire from a convulsion. i. At the time Mr. Mahony placed my humble name upon his . duster Roll for ten guineas —others of his acquaintance were used .., by him with a like distinction—and had he followed up the patriotic undertaking with a pertinacity equal to that with which he pursues a Bill in Parliament, I have no doubt the statue would have been raised, and Mr. Mahony's name might now be found in brass upon the pedestal. I shall not seek your suffrages by pledging myself against any me • ditieation of the legislative union, because I regard that as a qucs tion of good government, and if necessary for the welfare of Ireland 11l disinterested representatives should vote even for its repeal. 11r. Mahony, sbove all others, should in the year 1837 go this , length, recollecting that in the year 1832 (only five years ago) he thus a dd resse d t h e electors of Limerick :—" If the promised ad- vantages from the Legislative Union be not now realized, I shall -.ot hesitate as an Irishman to advocate as the only alternative Imother measure—its repeal." Fellow -countrymen, even to obtain the proud distinction of re presenting you in Parliament, I will not tell you " that if all we require be not non, realized I shall become a Repealer ;" because it would loOk like clap-trap and artifice in one who ought to know the slow progress of legislation, and that reforms, however useful and necessary, are to be carried by reason and deliberation, and not by apouring or delusion. If honoured by your choice, I shall vote for Municipal Reform. I shall advocate Church Reform, in which I expect every sincere Protestant will join me, as a more equal distribution of the tempo ralities of the Church amongst the ministers of religion must tend to the ad vancement o f Ch r i st i an i ty, b y prevent i ng i nor di nate wealth in the one or abject poverty in the other. It is quite evi dent that isithout a satisfactory adjustment of the Tithe question there can be no peace in Ireland ; therefore it must be settled, and that too with all practicable expedition. To conclude, Gentlemen, I shall vote for a comprehensive sys tem of Poor Laws and Emigration, and for every measure tending to benefit your town and community, or to advance the interests of the empire. 17 I am precluded from remarking particularly upon the exact pre tensions of your present Representative, not having seen any address from him; but taking it for granted that he adheres to his princi ples, I may venture to rest my pretensions upon the fact that at the present day the benefit of the People is to be found between the two extremes. Gentlemen, the great duty of a Representative is to advocate 'every Measure for the Welfare of the Majority of the People Such are my principles—and I have the honor to be, Your most obedient Servant, JAMES DWYER, Barrister-at-Law. 1141-RITISH INSTITUTION PALL-MALL .

In her delightful society we have feasted with Pachas and conversed with Patriarchs, gossipped with deep-eyed Circasssian beauties, and bowed beneath the spell of Georgian loveliness; we have loitered away the sunny hours of summer in the Valley of Sweet Waters,' and galloped over the plain of Broussa.

PREPARATIONS FOR THE GENE- RAL ELECTION. BERWICK-UPON-TWEED (2).—Sir Rufane Donkin will stand again ; Mr. Hodgson, brother of Mr. Hodgson (since) Hinde, the 'Tory Member for Newcastle, is not on the Tory interest. BEVERLEY (2).—Mr. Burton, the Liberal Member for thii borongh, has published an address, stating his intention not to offer himself again as a candidate on the approachiag dissolution of Parliament.—Hull Observer. BOSTON (2).—At Boston there will be a strong opposi tion ; but the attachment of the people to the Queen and her Government will be strong enough to return Mr. Wilks and Major Handley. BRADFORD (2).—Mr. E. C. Lister has addressed the electors, requesting a renewal of the trust reposed in him ; and, in compliance with a requisition signed by 602 electors, Mr. William Busfield, of Upwood, has declared himself a candidate, avowing himself a friend to the general policy of the present Government. As Mr. Hardy only polled 611 votes at the last election, we presume that he may bid adieu to Bradford. W. Busfield, of Milner Hall, a young Tory of more zeal than prudence, has also issued an ad dress offering himself. BURY ST. EDMUND'S (2.)—There are two Tories in the field—Lord Jermyn, one of the present Members, and the Hon. Mr. Calthorpe. Lord Charles Fitzroy is the Re form candidate. CAMBRIDGESHIRE (3).—The Marquis of Granby has left to tiinvass the electors on the Tory interest. - CAI&ERIBYRY (2).—The Right Hon. J. R. Lushing ton retires, and Messrs. Bradshaw and Gipps offer them selves as the candidates on the Conservative interest, whilst the Reformers support their old Member, Lord A. Conyng ham, and also Mr. Villiers. CrumEmma (2).—Mr. John Abel Smith, the present Liberal Member, will a:ain offer himself ; he is not going out of England, nor does he intend to resign.—llampshire Telejraph. CRICKLADE (2).—Mr. R. Gordon retires on account of ill health, after twenty years' service, and two gentlemen have started to supply his place—Ambrose Goddard, Esq., of Swindon, in the Conservative interest, and the Honour able Henry Howard, the son of the Earl of Suffolk, as a supporter of Ministers. John Neeld, Esq., the sitting Member also starts. DEVIZES (2). —Captain J. W. Deans Dundas, the pre sent Member, will not be opposed at the forthcoming election. NORTH DEVON (2).—Sir T. D. Acland is the Tory candidate to oppose the Hon. Newton Fellowes. DURHAM, CITY (2).—Mr. Harland the Reform Mem ber, again offers himself ; and Mr. Granger opposes the re turn of the Tory, Hon. A. Trevor. SOUTH ESSEX (2). —The two Tories here, Bramston and Palmer, will not be allowed to walk over the course ; Mr. Branfil is to be brought forward again by the Re formers, we hope with success. EXETER (2). —Lord Courtenay does not seem inclined to allow himself to be nominated ; and if he does not, Mr. Divett will, it seems, be returned without opposition. FLINTSHIRE ( I ).—An opposition is threatened to the return of E. M. H. Mostyn, Esq., the Liberal represen tative of this county, unless he will support the Conserva tive candidate in the boroughs. Sir R. Glynne wrote to Mr. Mostyn to this effect, and received a characteristic and manly answer, declining to interfere with the free exer cise of the borough franchise. GATESHEAD (l). —Mr. Surtees, who calls himself a Constitutional Reformer, has informed the electors that he shall proceed to the poll whenever the election takes place. Mr. Cuthbert Rippon in his address calls upon the people " to rally round their youthful Sovereign, and encourage her by their support." GLAMORGANSHIRE (2).—Lord Adare is expected to offer himself. HALIFAX (2) will return, we hope, without difficulty, Mr. Charles Wood and Mr.Protheroe. : —Leeds Mercury. NORTH II A NTS (2).—Mr. J. W. Scott, the present member, has published an address to the electors, stating that he feels that though he has hitherto supported Reform measures he should be no longer justified in offering himself as their representative, as he is opposed to the ballot, ex tension of the elective franchise, any organic change in the constitution of the Upper House, the introduction of the voluntary principle, and several other important measures which are approved of by many of his supporters. Sir William Ileatheote is a candidate. _ _ _ HASTINGS (2).-Mr. Holland stands in the room of Mr. Elphinstone, who goes to Liverpool. The present member, Mr. North, again offers himself ; and the Tories are anxious for the return of the Right Hon. Joseph Planta. Mr. Brisco is also a candidate. HORSHAM (I).—Mr. Hurst, the present Reform Mem ber, has issued an address to the electors, as has also Mr. Thomas Broadwood, the brother to the late Member for Bridgewater. HUDDERSFIELD (1) will again elect Mr. Ellice. Irswicx (2).—Mr. Morrison retires, but his place will be supplied by a sound Reformer. WEST KENT (2).—Sir R. P. Geary, the Conservative Member, has addressed the electors, soliciting a renewal of the confidence reposed in him. Sir Edmund Filmer, of East Sutton-place, has, in compliance with a numerously signed requisition, offered himself, on Conservative princi ples, to oppose the return of Mr. Law Hodges, the present Reform Member. KIDDERMINSTER (l).--Mr. Philips retires, and his for mer (Tory) opponent, Mr. Godson, is in the field. SOUTH LANCASHIRE (2).—Mr. Charles P. Grenfell having declined to offer himself for South Lancashire on account of the ill-state of his health, Mr. Edward Stanley, of Cross-hall, Lancashire, has been applied to, and will be brought forward on the Reform interest. There is ■o doubt of his success. LEOMINSTER (2).—Lord Hotham and Mr. John Ark wright, of Hampton-court, in that county, are canvassing the borough on the Conservative interest, in opposition to Mr. Bish and Mr. Wigram. LEWES (2).—Sir C. Blunt has signified his intention of again standing on the Reform interest, and there is every probability of his being joined by another Reformer every way worthy of him. The Tories are on the alert in sup port of the lion. Henry Fitzroy, and have sent a requisi tion to Captain Lyon, formerly M.P. for Seaford, to stand with Mr. Fitzroy. LINCOLN, CITY (2..) —Major Sir Edward Brackenbury is expected to offer himself as the second Reform candi date. Mr. Bulwer, whose Parliamentary duties have up to the present time prevented his arrival amongst us, is also expected awl will immediately enter upon his canvass, of the successful result of which, together with that of Major 13raekenbury, there is very little ground for doubt. Colonel Sibthorp and Mr. Henry Ellis have arrived in this city, and commenced an immediate canvass in the Tory interest. The latter gentleman originally introduced himself to the electors as a Reformer, promising we know not what if he had been in Parliament in time past, but carefully avoiding any explanation as to what he would do in time to come. If any doubts lingered as to the real intentions of Mr. Ellis, they are now removed, for he was accompanied in his Journey hither by Colonel Sibthorp, the violent opponent of all reforms, whose protege he appears to be.--Lincoln Gazette. NORTH LINCOLN (2.)—The Liberal cause will not be without its champions. Lord Worsley, it is certain, stands higher than ever in the estimation of the electors ; for he has not only strengthened the confidence of his supporters, but conciliated his opponents. We have not yet heard who is to be the second candidate as a Queen's man ; but we have no doubt one will be brought forward who will Command the respect and support of the constituency ; and we, therefore, beg to caution the electors against promising their votes. Mr. Christopher (Dundas) has been men tioned as likely to stand in the place of Mr. Corbett (who retires) ; but, besides being very little known in the county, of which he is .a.new resident, the Ipswich bribery affair hangs rather unpleasantly over his head, and will be sure to be dinned in his ears by the free and independent electors. —lbid. SOUTH LINCOLN (2.)—An important meeting was held at Boston on Wednesday last, at which resolutions, in sup port of Henry Handley, E3(l M P., at the ensuing elec tion, were voted. LYMINGTON (2). —The sittin; Members, J. Stewart, Esq., and W. A. Mackinnon, Esq., have issued addresses, stating their intention to offer themselves again to the con stituency. It is said that the Radicals are endeavouring to win over a brother of Capt. Frederick Marryat, R.N., t o espouse tl*.,•' no p c i e gs cause. MIDDLESEX (2). —Both the present Members, Mr. D, Yng and Mr, Hume, are candidates. Mr. Wood , of Lit tleton, the beaten Tory, 1 ,,- . 11, it is thought, come forward again 'with another Tory candidat• 4 . ,I o* EWCASTLE-UNDER-LINg Peel has publicly Mr. Ayshford announced his retirement ; and in his place . right Wise , who has considerable estates near the town, .... of his wife, comes forward. He is a Devonshire gentlernan of ancient family, and well known in the political circles of that county. NmeAsTLE-upot.r-TYNE (2),—Mr. Hodgson Hinde again comes forward, as will also probably Mr. Blackett, of SPAIN. GENERAL AMNESTY.—ROYAL DECREE. " Desiring to perpetuate the recollection of the proclama tion of the Constitution of the Monarchy, and mark by an act of clemency, which shall be worthy of so great an event, the happy day on which I have freely and spontaneousl) sworn to this Constitution, in the midst of the National Congress, in the name of my august daughter abella,—l, 'n my quality of Queen Regent, do hereby grant a general amnesty, as extensive as the laws and situation of the king dom will permit.

" 3. Publiainnationaries„ who have abused their tions, and committed serious faults in the execution of them, a e also exempted from this amnesty. " 4. Smugglers who have been guilty of offences against the export or import laws shall enjoy the benefit of this am nesty, and the penalties to which they have been condemned shall be excused them. " 5. Individuals condemned to the gallies, if not included in either of the cases of exception, awl those who have not yet arrived at their place of destination, shall also enjoy the benefit of this amnesty. " 6. In offences betwixt civil parties the amnesty will not be applicable, until the damages which the authorities have adjudged stall have been paid. 7. The amresty will not apply to offences committed after its promulgation. " 8.

We hear nothing of Mr. Ord. NORTIIALLERTON (l).—W. B. Wrightson, Esq., the present Member for this borough, arrived at Northaller ton, on Wednesday evening, and shortly afterwards com menced a canvass of - the electors of the town, which was continued in the morning of the following day ; and in the afternoon he proceeded to Brompton, to canvass the electors of that place. It does not appear that tiny opposition will be made to Mr. Wrightson being again returned for this borough.—Hull Observer. NORTHAMPTONSHIRE, NORTH (2).—Lord Bruienel!, in consequence of b e ing absent with his regiment in ndia, has retired from the representation of the Northern Di, i sioa ; anti Lord Maidstone, the son of the Earl of Winchil sea, comes forward with Mr. Maunsell, in the Conservative interest. NORTHUMBERLAND, SOUTH (2).-Mr. Bell will again contest the southern division of this county. PLYMOUTH (2).—The return of Messrs. Collier and Bowes is to be opposed by Sir James Cockburn and the Hon. Captain Price Blackwood, R.N., eldest son of Lord DufTL:rin, who are brought forward by the Conservative Association. PORTSMOUTH (2).—The present useful and hard-working Members, Mr. J. B. Carter and Mr. Baring, come forward again, and are opposed by the Tories in the person of Sir G. Cockburn. RYE (I).—Cuptain Mouypenny is canvassing in opposi tion to the sitting Member, Major Curteis. SHEFFIELD (2).—Mr. Parker an& Mr. Ward stand on Reform, and Mr. Thornley on the Tory interest. We regret to find a Mr. Crabtree also in the field on the Libe ral side. STAMFORD (2).—lt is stated that the Marquis of Exe ter's interest will be opposed by that of Sir Gerard Noel. Unfortunately both are Tories ; but out of evil much good may come. STAFFORD Tows (2).—Mr. IL Farrand, with Captain Chetwynd, stand on the Conservative, and Mr. Blount on the Liberal interest. STOKE-UPON-TRENT (2). —Mr. Davenport reti r es, and Mr. Alderman Copeland will, it is said, stand in his steak Mr. Matthew Bridges of Bristol, and Mr. Frank Sheridan, grandson of the late R. B. Sheridan, are the Reform can. didates. WEST SUFFOLK (2).—Coloncl Rushbrooke has canvassed himself here ; Mr. Logan has been obliged to leave Kent well-hall for London, on account of the indisposition of his lady ; but, as she is now perfectly recovered, his return may be early expected, when he will, no doubt, lose no time in addressing the electors of the western division of the county.—Bury Herald. EAST SUFFOLK (2) —Lord Henniker and Sir Charles Broke Vere have announced their intention of again pre senting themselves as candidates for the eastern division of this county. SUNDERLAND (2).—Andrew White, Esq., the Mayor, has been called on to stand, with every prospect of suc cess, at the coming election. He is brought forward by the shipping and commercial interests of the borough. WEST SURREY (2).—Mr. W. J. Denison again solicits the suffrages of the electors. The Hon. Captain Perce val, eldest son of Lord Arden, the Lord• Lieutenant of the county, starts. EAST SUSSEX (2). —Mr. Charles Compton Cavendish again offers himself on the Reform interest. TAMWORTH (2). —Sir Robert Peel has issued a plausi ble address to the electors. TOTNEs (2). --Sir George Adam is actively opposing :he return of that excellent Reformer Mr. Parrott. WALLINGFORD (1). —We are glad to fiud that the Re• formers in this town have a candidate to oppose to the pre sent Tory Member ; Mr. Eyston, a gentleman of property in the neighbourhood, has come forward ; he contested the representation in 1832, when the numbers were—Black stone, 202 ; Eyston, 165. Last time there was no contest. WARWICKSHIRE (4). —We hear of no opposition in the northern division to the return of Mr. Diigdale and Sir E. Wilmot. Sir John Mortlaunt and Mr. Shirley again offer themselves for the southern division. WESTMINSTER (2).—i - 1w Reformers support General Evans and Mr. Leader. Sir George Murray has addressed the electors on the Conservative side. We hear nothing of the late tool of the Tories, Sir F. Burdett. YORKSHIRE (WEST- RthiNG.)—Lord Morpeth and Sir George Strickland will effer a renewal of their services. MANCHESTER.—WC have not heard of any movement on the part of the Tories, in the way of contesting the re presentation of this borough, though it is understood that they are eagerly looking out for an eligible candidate. Some of the more ardent members of the party talk of Mr. G. R. Dawson, the brother-in-law of Sir Robert Peel ; but he does not seem to take with the majority, and his appearance here is not very probable. In the meantime the Committees of Mr. Phillips and Mr. Thomson have been re-organized. SALFORD.—No Tory candidate is yet forthcoming for this borough. We have heard that Mr. Garnet.t's final answer to the requisition which has been got up on his be half will he given this day ; and that there is little or no doubt of his appearance in the field. SOUTH LANCASHIRE.—A meeting of delegates from the various Reform Committees of this division will be held at Newton this day. Of course we are unable at present to say what mode of procedure will be resolved on, further than that certainly the present Tory Members will be most strongly opposed ; and one at least of them, we confidently expect, put to the rout. Edward Stanley, Esq., of Cross Hall —we believe the nephew and heir of the late Col. Stanley, so long the popular Whig Member for this county, and the head of the nearest collateral branch of the house of Derby —we understand, will be one of the Reform candidates ; and, from his sound Liberal principles, his talents, and his connexions, we have every reason to hope that he will be come higi!y popular with the electors. NORTH LAN c SHIRE.—We do not hear of any candi date on the Reform in:prest for this district. Some ex- pectations have, indeed, been Otertained that Mr. Charles Towneley, the son of P. E. Towne;cy, E , q , of Towneley Park, would offer himself for North Lancashire, instead of one of the divisions of Durham, for which he WO recently announced, but from which he afterwards withdrew. He has not, however, as yet made any movement. BURY.—We understand that the Radicals talk of put- ting Mr. Oastler in nomination against Mr. Walker, the sitting Member, who has again offered himself ; but. the probability is that Mr. 11 7 aIker will be returned without opposition. STOCKPORT.-4e understand that the only chance which the present Tory Member for Stockport has of being again returned rests on the division of the Reformers, in consequence of the presence of three candidaiC.s in the field on that interest. OLDltam.—The Radicals will start Mr. Fielden and General Johnson for this borough. It is exceedingly doubtful whether Mr. Lees, the present Tory Member, will again offer himself ; but it is said that Joseph Jones, Esq., of Oldham, will come for and as a candidate on the Conservative interest ; in which case the contest will pro bably be exceedingly severe. BOLTON.—The two sitting Members, Mr. Belling and Mr. Ainsworth, stand again. The Tories have talked of a second candidate, in the person of Thomas Bright Crosse, Esq., of Shaw Hill, near Chorley ; but no public demon stration has yet been made by or on behalf of that gen tleman. BRIGHTON.—We hear of only one person who is so un grateful as to overlook the efficient services rendered by Captain I'echell to every class of his constituents. That one person is Sir David Scott. It is even doubted in some quarters whether, under the altered aspect of affairs, Sir Adolphus will venture upon offering himself to the consti tuency. We incline to believe that he will not.—B,ighton Guardian. LEWES.—Yesterday a deputation waited upon T. Brand, Esq., son of the Hon. General Trevor, with a requisition from the leading men of the liberal party in this borough, soliciting the Hon. Gentleman to stand for the borough at the ensuing election. HADDINGTON BURGHS.—Sir T. B. Hepburn, a Tory, has entered the lists against Mr. Robert Steuart. ARGYLESIIIRE.--Tile Edinburgh Advertiser, a hot Tory paper, affects to believe that Mr. Campbell, of Islay, %sill not be returned again for the county. LANARKSHIRE.-Mr. A. Macdonald Lockhart, oF . Carn w•ath, has addressed the electors on the Conservative interest. One of the largest tortoises ever seen was found a short time since near New London, in the United States ; it weighed 8901b5., was eight feet in length, reckoning from the mouth to the extremity of the tail, and measured, from the ex tremities of both feet, seven feet six inches in breadth. On Tuesday, in Covent-garden-market, prices were considerably lower than on Saturday ; green pease sold at from Bd. to 10d. per peck ; new potatoes 4d. and 6d. per pound ; strawberries from 6d. to Is. per pottle ; filberts Is. 6d. per pound. In the flower garden the display of roses was most extraordinary. There were few cherries in the market.

GREECE. FACILITY OF ESTABLISHING A N..4TIONAL BANK IN GREECE. Ccch . crane's " Wanderings in Gre ece " just!-'- published.) " My friend Bell, Luriottis, Maniachis, and myself, go. eri round the fire at one end of the room ; the two latter ex-r 1 patiating with their usual enthusiasm on the excellence ofl England, and our Constitution, manners, &c. We wen soon afterwards joined by Mr. Noel and Mr. Miller, who immediately originated a conversation relative to a topic o which which we were all, as well-wishers of Greece, deeply inte-h rested—namely, the project of the establishment of a naig tional bank in that country, at the suggestions of Mr. Wright an d ot h er E ng li s h ca pit a li s t s , chiefly, as I under- . stood, consi s ti ng o f t h ose i n di v id ua ls w h o h a d s o success f u ll y . formed the provincial bank of Ireland, and the bank of Aus tralasia. It appeared that the gentleman to whom Mr. , ':', Wright had communicated his ideas on this subject, hat' sailed that day for England; and I learned, from one of'' the Greek gentlemen of our party, that the project had been entertained in the most eager manner by the Govern ent and by his Majesty, an d th at t h ey were d e li g ht e d'‘ m with the prospect it present e d o f f urt h er i ng t h e b es t i n t e -' rests of Greece, at the same time that it secured a fair pro fit to the projectors. •„ . t i " .From the success which has attended the institutionsg, above alluded to, and the benefits they have bestowed in - their respective seats of operation, we inferred that nothing could have been suggested more desirable for Greece, and at the same time more promising and profitable for those allied with her as friends, and commercial connexions., ~ There are, it appears, about thirty-six millions of stremati4 of land in Greece, or eighteen millions of English acres. , About two thirds of these belong to the Government, and ; 'l , the remainder to private individuals ; and of the latterk i about one-tenth only is cultivated—for the revenue taisint,iq from the land-tax does not amount to more than four mil- - - lions and a half of drachmas. The land is extremely fer tile, but the large landed proprietors have no pecuniary means of bringing it fairly into cultivation ; nor can any . l) possibility he obtained, except that all effective one, of the advent of capital into the country. " There are few persons in Greece who possess large sums of money ; that is, amounting-4o 50,000/.—possibly not more than six. The wealth of the Greeks generall consists in large tracts of land. Before the breaking out of the Greek revolution, the higher order of the Greeks were in easy circumstances. But during the war their estates were devastated, and the ready money which the 3 , corge had amassed was expended in supporting themselves durin the revolution, which broke out in 1821, and lasted for seven years ; for the Greeks were not in possessien of the Morea until the army of Ibrahim Pacha was forced to quit the latter place in 1828. And in Attica and Continenti.j Greece it was not till the year 1831 that the Turks were finally expelled. At Egina and Salamine, too, during the war, many of the above-named (once wealthy) families were living in hovels not worth sixty drachmas a year—fa milies which had formerly enjoyed every comfort and dis tinction that wealth could give them. " Under such a state of things it is evident that nothing but the access into the country of new capital can remedy the evil in question. But so soon as a national bank can be, instituted, lending moncyat a moderate rate of interest, thi situation of the Greek people, and the position of the Go vernment itself, will be greatly ameliorated, and the lands, will immediately be brought into cultivation, to the utmost • extent that the present diminished population will admit the Greeks being extremely industrious, and no less frugal in their habits of firing,. " Another great utility and advantage arising to the; country from the establishment of a bank would be this : in all States, after a revolution, and particularly after one so singularly disastrous as that brought about by the Greeks, • it is natural to suppose that every one will endeavour to; keep by him as much ready money as possible, fearful of the repetition of past scenes. And although the integrity of Greece is guaranteed to her by England and France.; and Russia, the peasantry cannot forget their late suffer- - ings, and consequently they have not - yet abandoned their former universal practice, of concealing their money in the earth. A Bavarian officer informed me, that during the recent civil broils in Greece, he was sent with a detach meta to a village in Arcadia, at which place information.. had been given that there were secreted arms. They went to a house where it was said the latter were deposited, and in the garden attached they observed some recently turned up earth. They instantly began to dig, when they found several muskets and sabres, and about a thousand pounds' worth of gold, in ail the various coins of Europe. This was at the house of an apparently poor man, and is by no means a solitary instance of the concealment of the preci ous metals, even at the present time. This arises solely from the peasantry being afraid of leaving themselres with out ready money. As soon, however, as a national bank .• can be established, issuing money at a moderate rate of in terest, this will at once giro confidence to the nation as to their actual condition and prospects ; and there is no douht that the peasantry will be induced to bring forward their money and employ it either in commerce or agriculture.' Moreover, when money gets more plentiful, the extravagant' rate of interest now paid for the loan of it will cease. " I may here mention a fact that came within my own knowledge, as to the market value of money in Greece A poor man came to my house, and offered me 40 per cent.,l with ample security ; and I have been informed, that the Jews and other wealthy capitalists never demand less than 30 per cent., the validity of the security being unexcep-' tionable. 11 " The charter of the contemplated bank, I have subse-._‘ % .* quently learned, was for thirty years, and the proposed.`. capital was to amount to 1,000,0001. sterling, in cash, and: the bank was empowered to issue notes to an equal amount.,':‘ The immense impetus that would be given to commerce by r :- - . the confidence excited by these notes being issued and re-k ' " ceived, would soon cause the establishment to rival similart ones in England and America, and perhaps to exceed them; for Greece is in an equally, and perhaps more favourable' . situation than either of the above-named countries, as to' t 4t. resources yet undevc!oped. " On enquiring why the affair had been so long in agita- ? . : 7; tion and concoction before its completion, I found that it e ' . , had met with the most strenuous opposition from two•7"=. powerful parties :—first, France and Russia, whom it was , rumoured were both afraid that England would obtain an` - : undue influence in Greece ; secondly, from a few rich and',- ; :: influential Greek capitalists, foreigners, and Jews, who re side in Greece, and are at present enabled to lend out their" money at the rate of 25 and 30 per cent., but who, on the i t. ' establishment of an equitable system cf money transactiono; would no longer be enabled to reap such exorbitant profits.L There are also certain dealers in the pi °duce of the land, who purchase it of the indigent Greeks whilst still green • in the field, and make immense profits by it. Some a 150.:. „. build houses, by which they obtain at least 30 per cent. for , ' their capital. Other speculators, of a still lower grade, :. who possess small portions of land in the cit y , are induced,ti, . by the high rent given for houses ther e, to borrow money to ...' build, for which they pay the above exorbitant rate 0f..:. interest. V " These considerations are, I conceive, quite sufficient to remove all surprise at the fact, of much opposition, even from influential quarters, having been made to the establishs: meat of a bank at Athens. And to the disinterested :-, reader, I need not remark, that the very fact, therefore, of`` such opposition, on such grounds, is demonstrable proof of S.-. th e , eligibility of the undertaking—no less as regards the'`; projecto,-5 themselves than the country in favour of which"; they are Lou: to act : as it is obvious that the rate of in terest would fall in ;iroportion to the confidence with whicht. the notes of the Natiotsi l Bank were received, and to the extent of their circulation." t Salmon was seldom known so cheap and plentiful in th. 2 Limerick market as at ti,:s season, where that splendid fish ,.! may be had from 31. to 4d. per ti.;. [ 4 On Tuesday last, Thomas Post,,'?s and Joseph Dar it bishire (the former a married man), both icsiding at Knuts. N. ford, were brought up before Trafford Traffortl, Esq , High Legh, near Knutsford. It appeared from the stztement of the complainant (who is rather a good looking young woman,q of about 17, and whose name is Atkinson), that her parent'6 reside at Aston, by Budworth, in this county, but she . herselfiji, lives in service at Dunham Massey, a distance of about sever: miles miles from her parents' house, and that on S unda y last.. she had permission to go and visit her parents. On her re- f. turn back, about seven o'clock in the evening, she met with,: Postles and Darbishire in a bye lane leading to the park of G.':. C. Legh, Esq., of High Legh, across which park her nearest,. way to her situation at Dunham lay. Postles walked before her and Darbishire behind, until she had got over a stile lead-i ing out of the Knutsford and Warrington turnpike road, into the light hand side of the park which is close by a small plan- :',, tation. Darbishire then called out to Postles to stop corn-' . w plainant, which le did, and threw her down into a dry ditch, ,;• ald proceeded to effect his purpose, in which he succeeded„ Darbishire having in the meantime come up end prevented .: the complainant from alarming any one, by holding his 'nanci 4 * over her mouth. Pestles afterwards did the same, whilst Dar-1 bishire effected his purpose. They then let her go; and on , her beginning to scream, threatened to murder her. Corn-t: plainant stated that she then returned home as quick as .51. e could, and immediately informed her parents of the circum ' s tance, in which particular her father corroborated her. The complainant, however, on being asked by Postles what dress " 1 : he had on at the time, replied a brown coat and black hat. sl Postles then said that although be co.tainiy was at High Legh -- 1 'all that day, on a visit to hi s father - i 0 law , with Darbishire, yet they were both en ti re ly innocent of the charge, and, in proof of his ass ert i on , sa id he could p rove that all that da y he wore a white hat and a very lig ht-colour,d coat. Under thcse'. circumstances the case was remanded until the next day, when 'g Postles p r oved by several nitnesses that he had the dress on he stated. Under these circumstances Mr. Trafford sand 1:e . should discharge tl,em on finding bail in 401. each, to a: , ie ur to answer the. charge if called upon; wh'elt they inl:rediatt.lv :.4 and were discharged acccrdill .-. 4 , ...5•.!Mbimmi....a.0410911/RIMN•ww.• COBBETT'S POLITICAL REGISTER.
