The Allgenzeine Zeitung contains. the following letter in the French language : Sir,—Allow me to request you to insert in your Journal the following article. I have the honour to be, &c. A GREEK. Prince Alexander Ypsilanti, after a confinement of two years at Mungatsh, in Hungary, and of four years and a-half at Theresienstadt, in Bohemia, has just died at Vienna. In the month of August, 1827, Russia had demanded his release, which, how ever did not take place till the end of November, and upon the condition required by Austria that he should not leave its dominions. It was on his pas sage through Vienna upon his.way to.Verona,-which had been fixed upon as his place of abode, that he was attacked with increased violence by a disorder with which he had been long afflicted, which only a southern region could have checked, and which had been-rendered worse by a journey undertaken when he had a fever upon him, and in very severe weather. He died on the 31st January, 1828, after two months of acute suffering of a dilatation of the heart, follow ed by water on the chest; he was in the 6th year of his age ; he died like a Christian ; an honest man, and a true patriot, a victim to the persecution which had fallen upon him. At a moment when the eyes of the civilized world were turned towards the East ; when the hearts of all true philanthropists tremble for the still uncertain fate of an unfortunate nation, the news of, the death of Alexander Ypsi lanti, who, by his ardent patriotism first revived the energy of Greece, will awake in all Europe the remembrance of arnan whom calumny has endea voured to blacken at a time when he could not publish his justification, being deprived of his liberty. The voice of none of his friends was then heard in his favour. Perhaps they were withheld by the fear of increasing the rigour of his confine ment, and of increasing the weight of the oppression under which he suffered. The hope of one day acquainting his country by his words and his actions what had been his inten tions and what was his real character, supported him during nearly seven years of a cruel confinement, during which he was a prey to the grief which has undermined his existence. This hope has been de ceived. It is for those who knew him as he, was, have read in his truly great soul the generosity, the patriotism, and the virtues which animated it, who have been witnesses of his bravery, his disinterested ness, and his entire devotion to the cause of the Greeks and his long sufferings, to fulfil the sacred duty of performingthistask. It will be performed, but the time is not yet come when it will be permitted to de clare the whole truth, victoriously to refute all the fables that malice and ignorance' have spread respect ing him, and in a word, to withdraw the veil which still covers his unjust and cruel fate. But in expecta tion of that happy day, let me be permitted publicly to render to his memory the homage of respect and admiration which is due to it, and to claim for it the gratitude of his country, and the esteem of all honest men. LITERARY NOVELTY. —Mr. BANINT has in preparation a new Irish novel, ealleil the Croppy, or Orange and Green.—Literary Gazette. R. M. THOMAS, Esq. his Majesty's late Agent and Consul-General to the Regency of Algiers, has arrived in town, and brings intelligence of every thing being perfectly quiet at that place when he left, a month ago. LIFE OF LORD BYRON.—Some incorrect statements having appeared respecting the late agreement between Mr. MoottE and Mr. MURRAY on this subject, we think it right to give the circumstances of the transac tion accurately. It is not true that the Messrs. LONGMAN entered into any terms with Mr. MOORE for the purchase of this work. The sum which they so liberally advanced to him (2,000 guineas), at the, time when he consented to the "destruction of Lord Bvitost's Memoranda, was merely in the nature of a private loan, to be repaid out of the profits of the works they might publish for him ; and a Life of Lord BYRON, founded upon the valuable ma terials in the possession of Mr. Moon; has for some time been in preparation. Within the last few weeks, however, Mr. MURRAY, having been induced by the late shameful misrepresentations of Lord BYRON'S character, to bring forward those letters and papers of the noble poet which he had originally intended to reserve to some future period, submitted a proposition to Mr. Mootte, offering not only to place these materials at his disposal, but to give him 4,000 guineas for the work. Acknowledging the liberality of this proposal, Mr. Mooez merely stipulated that the sum in which he stood indebted to the Messrs. LONGMAN should be immediately repaid, to which Mr. MURRAY assented, and, with the full consent and ap probation of the Messrs. LONGMAN, this agreemerit, so interesting to all lovers of genius, was on Friday last for mally ratified by the parties. EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM ALMORAN IN THE HILL, PROVINCE OF KUMAON, DATED SEPT. 5, 1827.—0ur General having tempdrarily established his head quarters here in the mountains of his district for the benefit of the climate, a few lines descriptive of the remote part of India may not be unacceptable. We completed our position here on the 13th April, after a hard march from Sooltanpeor of 33 days. We have been repaid however by the beneficial change, as we have thereby avoided the heat of the plains. Our present station is about 6000 feet above the level of the sea. We are perched on the ridge of a pre cipitous mountain, with deep picturesque glens on either side, and in every direction other mountains arise far above us. Being within 40 miles to the South of the gigantic range of the Hirualeh, with their snow crested summits, I can now from my window distinctly see the highest moun tain in the world, estimated I believe at about 26,000 feet above the sea; it is called by the natives Norrida Devi, or the Throne of the great Goddess Devi. The surrounding country, though inaccessible, except where we have cut our roads through the thick and impervious forest and jungle, which form the belt of these mountains, abounds in oak and pine, with many species of the European vegetable king dom, such as walnuts, apricots, raspberries, quinces, lac., yet none approaching to perfection. Our elevation and proximity to the snow render this climate cold as compared with the plains, for although we are not in a direct line distant more than 90 miles from Burrelly, where the ther mometer ranges at 95 deg. in the middle of the night, it was here only at 70, and at the higheit is seldom above 76. The lower regions of these mountains are so unhealthy as to be almost impassable for travellers, except during three or four months in the year. By our last advices from Sooltanpoor all remained quiet in that district. FATAL ACCIDENT.—Caution to Banksmen. —An inquest was held at Hales Owen, in this county, yes terday week, before GEORGE HrwcnureE, Esq., on the bodies of two colliers who met their deaths through the carelessness of a banksman. Two men, named SAMUEL TROWMAN and TRostas TomuszsoN, were employed in the coal-pits of M. ATTWOOD, Esq. near Hales Owen, which are 300 yards deep. A person named Thomas FOSTER, was employed as banksman, and as he had been several times very careless when men were ascending or de scending the pits, he was cautioned upon the subject, and desired not to move any thing on the bank when the workmen were co m i ng lip Or going down. About five o'clock in the afternoon of Wednesday the 13th instant, TaowstaN and TostuissoN rung the bell which is pl ace d at the top of the pit (a wire at the bottom be ing attached to it) as a signal that they were coming out of the pit. FosTee. immediately ordered the engineers to 'set the engine On, as the men were coming up. The men ac cordingly began to ascend, and when they had got half way u p, FOSTER placed an empty skip on the trolly waggon which was about ten yards from the pit, and notwithstand ing the caution he had received, he forced the trolly waggon and skip along the rail-road till- they reached the edge of the pit, and then being unable to hold them, they descended the pit shaft,. and literally knocked the poor fellows who were coming up all to pieces. The carelessness of FOSTER was so apparent, and his conduct 60 wantonly negligent, that the Jury immediately found him guilty of manslaughter, and the Coroner committed him to Shrewsbury gaol, to take his trial at the next Assi,zes.....:Shrewsbury Chronicle. (Frain the Hampshire T e i dsrapho PORTSMOUTH, FEB. 23.—0 n Monday the Lord Wellington transport, Lieut.. R. N. Williams, Agent, arrived, in sixty-eight days, from Rio Janeiro (hav ing sailed five-days after the Jasseur). When she left, the Ganges (flag) and Heron, were lying in the harbour, the former intending to sail in a f ew days for Monte Video ' • the Forte had goneto Bahi a and Pernambuco ; the Thetis and Cadmus were i n the River Plate; the Adventure and Beagle had proceeded to resume their important scientific ser vices in the Straits of Magellan. Political affairs at' Rio had no novelty. The mass of the trading inha bitants complain loudly of the unfavourable state of affairs—exchanges were low and money scarce—the bad system of paper money, which is carried on to the utmost extent, being universally condemned. All the copper money in circulation at Rio was buy ing up at 15 per cent. to ship off to merchants in the provinces. The Emperot is not thought to be so popular; there is no cheering him as formerly, when he appears in public ; but he- icx4ibits ses Much energy, activity, and confidence as ever, and keeps all the folks in good order by such meani. A great number of Irish emigrants had arrived there, and there was much disaffection among them, complain ing that they had not had the promises which were made to them fulfilled. They were, it appears, re cruited in Ireland by Colonel Cotter, not as settlers, but as soldiers, and were promised the same pay as British subjects, with the full understanding that they were to be embodied into one regiment or brigade. On their arrival at Rio, however, the Emperor gave them very little pay and small rations, and wished to embody a portion of them into each •f his regiments: This proposition was rejected by the " Emeralders," who were, consequently, in a state of starvation. From 1,200 to 1,500 had arrived out. The boats of the Forte frigate lately took a pirate, off Maldonado, which a few hours previously had captured an English brig ; the brig was re-taken, with fourteen of the Buenos Ayreans, and abota as many more were drowned. The Wellington brings home forty invalided seamen, and ten distressed British subjects, principally Cornish miners, who either could not get work at the mines, or had been turned off from want of employment. On Wednesday the Kains transport, Lieutenant Burwood, Agent, arrived in 49 days from Jamaica, with 200 invalid soldiers from the regiments in garrison. Captain Foggo, with Lieutenants Shep herd and Hinchcliffe, of the Royal Artillery, and Messrs. Clifford and Gregory, Surgeons of the Navy, are among the passengers.' She brings no news. The ships left at Port Royal were—Magnificent (flag), Barham, Druid, and Ferret. The Slaaey had "gone to the Leeward Island station ; the Arachne was expected up from those Islands. The troops were quartered as follows :-22d Regiment at Uppark Camp; 33d, Stoney Hill ; 77th, Spanish Town; 91st, Falmouth and Maroon Town; 84th, Fort Augusta ; Royal Artillery, at Port Royal.

The Wanderer transport, with stores and provi sions for the new settlement of Fernando Po, on the coast of Africa, put in here last evening, for orders. She will sail for her destination in a day or two. The Freak, Taylor, from New York for Hull, in twenty-six days, was driven into Spithead this even ing, by contrary winds. No news by her. On Tuesday the Albion, 74, Captain J. A. Om manney, C.B. was paid off, on which occasion her gallant crew voluntarily subscribed the sum of 26/. 7s. for the Seamen's Hospital Ship, the Gram pus, in the River Thames. We mention this cir cumstance with pleasure, and hope it will prove an incentive to the crews of other ships to subscribe towards so laudable a charity.

DREADFUL CASE 0 - F STARVATION On Friday afternoon, a Coronet's Inquest was Esq., on the b o d y of John Cooke, aged , -' ,whose death vat -te nse d b y want of food. h 4 4„,in St. Giles's workh ouse, beforP THOMAs 4 T SBT he lyßea J L u lrNs ry ,on being sworn, viewed the body of the unfortunate man, which presented a most deplo rable appearance, the bones nearly protruding through the skin. Thomas O'Brien, of Bainbridge•street, St. Giles's, stated, that he keeps a cook-shop and lets out beds to hire by the night. On Sunday night last the de ceased came to lodge in his house ; he appeared in h shocking state of emaciation ; about nine o'clock the next morning the deceased rose from his bed, paid fourpence 'for his lodging, which he said was all the money he had, and left the house . ; witness did not see him again till the following Tuesday night, about nine o'clock, when hearing the noise of a crowd in Church -street, he went to the spot, and saw the de ceased lying in the street. Two or three watchmen were present. Witness mentioned that the poor man had lodged at his house the Sunday night before, and appeared in a starving condition. The watchmen took him to the watch-house, and wirne , ,s saw no more of him till he heard of his death. A watchman of St. Giles's, on Thursday; night, as he was calling the hour of nine o'clock, discovered the deceased lying on the pavement. Witness and three other watchmen carried him to the watch , house. He 'had never seen the deceased before, but thought he was reduced to the dreadful state•he~~a n by want of food. At►uther watchman corroborated this evidence, Mr. Felix Lyons, surgeon to the workhouse, ex amined the deceased on his. admission to the work house; he was in a state of great emaciation, 311 d. evidently dying; witness had him put to bed, and administered stimulating medicines, and ordered the nurse to give him arrow-root and wine at different periods of the night; witness inquired for him early the net morning, and f o u n d hi m dead. He opened the body, and found th e stomac h empty, w i th the exception of a little arro w - root , which had b een g i ven him in the night. The heart and brain were dis eased to an extent sufficient, to cause death. CORONER—In your opinion was the diseased state of the heart and brain brought on by want of pro per food to support life ?—lt might ; but other causes would have produced it. The Jury, after consulting about a quarter of an hour, returned a verdict, that " the deceased died by the visitation of God, for the want of proper food.' CLERKENWELL SESSIONS, FEB, umuccEssrut ATTEMTT TO AFFILIATE A CHILD. At the December Sessions an application of an unusual nature was made to the Court by the officers of Clerkenweii parish, for an order of affiliation against a gentleman named Gowers, which had been refused by the Magistrates of Hatton-garden, upon three several applications made to them, and a full consideration of the evidence produced to rebut the charge. The case then.stood over and came . on again to-day. Mr. BODKIN . called the mother of the child and examined her as to the time of her pregnancy. She stated that the intimacy took place in London during the months of Janu ary and February, 1826, and that she was delivered of the child in November of that yea r . Mr. ALLEY expatiated on the enormity of a false charge of this nature, which he should prove it to Ise ; and after adverting to the hardship under which individuals suffered against whom such charges were brought, proceeded to call his witnesses. The first called proved, that during the whams period in which...the intimacy was alleged to have ta'a - en, place, and for three months subsequently, Mr. Gowers, who is a respectable attorney, resided in Lincolnshire. The COURT refused to make the order, observing, that the proceeding was a shameful and disgraceful one ; anii that it might deserve consideration whether the mother ought not to be prosecuted for perjury. The petitioners against the Malt Act have ascertained and stated to the House the following facts, that since its passing 104 convictions have taken place, mostly in cases where no intentional wrong was committed ; and that upwards of 13,000/. have been levied for penalties under its vexatious enactments. In addition to the Deanery of Worcester, a valuable stall at Canterbury, , has become vacant by the death of Dr. MARLOW, the late President of St. John's College, Oxford. - , Considerable delay is said t o have occurred in the appointment of Lord STOWELL'S successor, Sir Onus- Tortqa ROBINSON, owing to the inability of the persons in whose department it lay, to, go through with the neem. sary form.
