We received by EXPRESS from Paris, at a late hour this day, the Etoile dated yesterday. The ly political intelligence it contains relates to the grief and alarm prevailing at Constanti 11°111e, occasioned by the late disasters of the Turks in their contest with the Greeks, and the recent earthquakes that have desolated Syria. On Thursday the Itentes left off at Paris ttt 1 01 r. 30c., but after the close of the Market they rose to 101 f. 60c. Peom the. Paris Papers of Wednesday we have glveit extracts in another column— • They relate c hießy . 'to the affairs of Spain, which country con tiaueS to be the theatre of the worst anarchy and misery.' 1 3r the Flanders Mail which arrived this morn mg, we have received Frankfort Papers to the 28 th ultimo, and Brussels Papers to the Ist instant. We subjoin the . mosr interesting part of their contents which relate to the affairs ° f She Greeks, whose successes have spread Universal. joy among the inhabitants of Servia', Bulgaria, and Thessaly, professing the Greek religion, and occasioned considerable alarm in the Turkish Authorities of those pro. ',Nees. It would seem also that these apprehensions are shared in an equal degree by the Ottoman Authorities in Crete, for, notwithstanding the Oriental Spectator (the Turkish Journal pub. fished at Smyrna) boasts of the strength of the Turks in that Island and the general submis sion of the Greek inhabitants, and labours to show that the threatened expedition of the Greeks against Crete need not occasion the least uneasi bess, yet it is evident that the Ottoman Authori ties there are under great alarm on that account. ( From the Oriental Spectator, Nov: 16.) CANEA, SEPT. 3.—We enjoy perfect tran quillity here, which I hope will not be disturbed for a long time, notwithstanding the report which the Greeks circulate iu the Morea of a reinforce ulent of 10,000 men to be sent by the Greek Government to this island. This report has t wo - objects; first, it favours the opinion that the Oovernment is strong enough in the Peninsula to be able. to turn its attention to affairs at a distance, and secondly, to hinder the victorious army in, Crete from going to the Morea. It fears this I .l.rtny, knowing that a mere detachment of it was sufficient to reduce the isle of Casso, from *Lich 700 good 'sailors have been taken and distributed on board the Egyptian fleet. • e The landing of. 10,000'M oreo ts, w hi c h, h owt ve rt . it a mere dream,. would be a c a l am ity frit. the Greeks in the island, as they have long since r stle i th e i r s u b m i ss i on , an d d e li vere d t h e i r , arms to n theTurka.

These latter are ..the o ' Persons who fear a landing, but they may tittke themselves easy. 01 1 'w° principal causes had, unfortunately far c er n, made the m p erseve r e in th e i r revo lt ; th e oit is, that a reinforcement of 10,000 men was ntihually announced to them ; the second, that .their Chiefs, who feared for their own lives, had Persuaded them that the Turks would give no t t l i tl . er ter• They w ere at length undecei ve d by t v O i Austriatt , Consul, who, induced by a noble th el ing of humanity, repaired with a promise in deg. hand- wr i t i ng o f Ossan Bey, Commun . - rh 'lu.Chief of the Ottoman forc e s, through v e HY dangers, . to the Greek camp, which as .twelve 'leagues distant from that of the He Was there able to triumph over the „, ie Lri,guea and snares of the chiefs, and to j udge Of eft depair of the people, who listened to'reasou, t; (I L O nSetited to su b m it w ith th e more eagerness trio. utnint d their pardon, and-had-been abte juo., y Pt the superi orit of e te had .to -comb at. tu tact, the y Turks, thenemy to re•es h ta y bllth their communications between Retimo and Canes, forced with equal rapidity and bravery the 'pass called A pocorpna, which was reputed inaccessible, and was defended by 5,000 Greeks, who thought themselves invincible in that positiou.—(Frank fort Papers.) . A UGIBURG, Nov. 21.—Letters from Belgiade speak of the great sensation which the successes of the Greeks have caused in Servia, Bulgaria, and Thessaly. The Turkish Authorities in these Provinces are iu the greatest anxiety, because the military force at their disponi is utterly in sufficient to put down any insurrection that may break out among the inhabitants of the Greek religion. The Divan is said to he extremely dissatisfied with the Viceroy of Egypt. At Constantinople it is repotted that an agent is to be sent to Cairo with very strict orders from the Sultan. But it is thought that nobody will venture to go on such a mission to the Pachn who is absolute in his Province.—( Brussels Papers.) CONSTANCE, Nov. 14.—This city and its noble Minster hAvg been in the most imminent danger from a rdreadful fire, which broke out on the 11th, at. two in the morning, in the great buildingimlonging to the Grand DUke . at Stanf, and which,is,-snpposed to have been caused by de.' sign. This great edifice, in which there was a great (plinth, of corn and 180 tuns of wine, and the residence of the Canon of Enzberg, were burnt to the ground. The Cathedral was saved by great exertions, but not without the de struction of two chapels, and damage to the amount of 20,000 florins. Twenty.two Swiss and 12 Buda fire-engines were on the spot. COMMERCIAL SOCIETY OF THE NETHERLANDS. —Letters from Rotterdam state that this Com pany of Merchants has confined itself for this autumn to freighting three vessels to Batavia, one at Rotterdam, one at' Antwerp, and one at Am sterdam, all on account of the Government. The Society has given another proof that it is not inactive ; it has just made a speculation in tea, and has began another in wheat. _ Yesterday the Loan CHANCELLOR had a n au. dience of his MAJESTY. The Duotiks of GLOUCESTER was a great dea better yesterday. _ _ The Cabinet Ministers assembled yesterday afternoon at the Foreign Office, Downing-street, at two o'clock. Among those present were—the Lord Chancellor, the Duke of Wellington, the Earls of Liverpool, Westmoreland, and Bathurst, Mr. Secretary Peel, Mr. Secretary Canning, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Viscount Melville, &c,—The Ministers continued in deliberation till five o'clock. Soon after the breaking up of the Cabinet, the Chancellor of the Exchequer left town for Beckenham. Mr. Secretary PEEL transacted business yes. terday morning at the Home Office, I)owning ing-street, with the LOUD Ciiiae JUSTICE of the Court of King's Bench. The Allgemiene Zeitung says, the late British Ambassador at the Sublime Porte, Lord STRANG.. vont), received front the Grand Seignor, prior to his Lordship's departure, presents to the value of 40,000 piastres, (10,0001. sterling), and that his Chief Dragoman or Interpreter, the Chevalier DABUT, received presents to the value of 10,000 piastres, or about 2,5001. sterling. ORLEANS, Nov. 28.—The Royal College of Orleans Resented, between the 24th and 25th instant, a scene of disorder which could never have been expected from the general good con. duct of the establishment. Between eleven and twelve o'clock in the evening, the pupils of the first class, amounting to nearly fifty, assembled tumultuously, and in such a maim. ner as had evidently been concerted. One of the masters who was awakened by the noise, opened his window, and, seeing his light, the scholars rushed to his door, which they endea voured to force open, while another attack Was made from the cloister. The master, in order to escape from this frightful assault let himself down from the window by the assistance of a sheet which served to break his fall, but which, neverthe less, was sufficiently deep to occasion several wounds, especially on one of his feet. The Head of the College, convinced that the disorder could not be put down without utter destruc tion, and that it w a s not possible otherwise to prevent so scandalous a result, called in the aid of the military. lie informed the Command. of the gendarmerie of his situation, who soon after arrived with a detachment. Order was then restored. MT.,lcF.Azi,has now only 'a limited engagement at Drury-lane TWentre.

LINCOLN STANHOPE and Officers of the 17.11 i Lancers. DEATH BY DRUNIEENNESS.--011 Saturday an Inques4 was held over the body of Mary Ilasel. dine, in a court in Disley-street, Gloucester street, Liverpool ; and in consequence of the suspicion of violence on the part of her husband, it was adjourned until yesterday. It appeared that the man and his wife had been in a state of intoxication during several weeks, and that on Thursday they had both drank, in company with each other, to great excess. She had found her way up stairs, but not being able to unloose her clothes, and no sober person being there to assist her, she was found by a casual visitor, dead, Bp. parently by strangulation, her husband being insensible down stairs, Verdict—" Died. by excessive drinking." THE KING. WINDSOR, DEC. 3.—llis SIAJESTT'S return to theß oyal Lodge still remains uncertain. The reports are, that his Ma jesty will proceed from London to Brighton, where he intends passing the Christmas, and return to the Royal Lodge early in February. This is not wholly without foundation ; but we are led to expect, from the continuation of the greatest part of the Royal Household at the Lodge, that the King will previously return to Windsor for a short time. e •l p'9 ,-. . t, '".• , .. ~."

THE II EAT It munT-LANE.—The Siege of Belgrade last night again introduced Mr. SApio to the public, in the character of The Seraskier. He acquitted himself with more ease in acting, ant gave more scope, and more embellishment, to the exertion of his musical Powers, altogether proving himself a valuable. acquisition to this theatre.—A good House.r. COY ENT.G Alt D Ex.—A, n ew Tragedy, entitled gavenno, or Milian Love, was brought forward Inst 'night, and the Characte rs were usk.fellow : Marquis de Itnyentt, Mr. EoEnTqx ; Count Ccsurio, Mr. YOUNG; Count Gautlentia, Mr. 1, :ATEB ; Bartuccio, Mr.' COOPER. Soramt, Mr. I.3inTi.E: PrilicesS Camilla, Miss LacY ; Giana, M bliss F. 11. KELLY ; Beatrice, Mrs. Da- NPORT. As this Tragedy is avowedly a free translation of a play w r itt en by SCHILLER, the great Ger man Dramatist, and has rec e i ve d two E ngl i s h versions, one by Mr. Cor.omaixe, a I:entleman formerly of Norwich, and by t h e late Mr. Lc.wis, author of The Monk, Castle Spectre, Ste:, it is not necessary for us to enter into a detail of the plot. Scdt LIAR was a powerful writer of the terrific School, and the plot of this play has long been known to the Public, by the two former translations under the title of Cabal and Love, we are relieved from the necessity of a formal recital of the story. It may however he said, that it is highly improbable, and that the chief interest depends on the excellence of the acting. We may notice a few of its im probabilities. A father wants his son to marry the mistrers of his Sovereign, though he already possesses sufficient authority as the first Minister. The mistress is not in love with her Ducal keeper, >tit with the son of the Minister. The son is in love with the daughter of a plebeian. This laughter, though deeply attached to the son of he Minister, consents to sacrifice her fame at . the instigation of a . man whom she knows to be a villain ; and, though exhOked by her distracted lover to explain the . li.tai Whiefinvolves the suspicion of her infa . my, ihe . ieftties, and con sents, to die rather Oiling Justify her inno cence. She does so, hOwitVeri before' her death, having been poisOmid by: 'her COM, who..par, takes of the mortal" &Might. - Poetical jus. tice is not satisfied, 'f4" the bad characters escape only with the punishment' of self reproach, ex c e pt one, who falls the 'victiin of his .villahly. The piece, however, is by no means devoid of interest, but that essentially arises from the act- ing. Mr. YOUNG, though apparently too old for so lover, played ad m i ra bl y ;. , so did Miss who always acts on t h e b as i s o f iis y s outt A tf c u E l y a , good sense and feeling. Miss F. H.: KELLY displayed great feeling and a full c oneep . Lion of the character w hich she sustained.-- EGERTON was firm and impressive in a very forbidding character. .The Tragedy was heard with attention, and a ; very faint opposition took place when announced for this evening, while the general sense was obviously in its favour. The house was very well attended. I • The destruction caused on the coast by the overflow of the sett near Portland is trementiOus the whole of the Esplanade has been swept away; and on e e ntire village has shared the` same fate, ,Th e l oss in property is estimated at between 30,0001. and 4 0,0001; and ,by the latest accounts it was uncertain us to the precise number of tires . that haves that have."."166,41. POETRY. PROLOGUE, To the Tragedy of Ravenna,. Or Italian Lbre ; Spoken by - . Mr. CootEn, From distant reahps and long4orgotten years 'We draw to night a tale of love and tears. Of wild and stormy' passions, wlyse dark Power • Blights the young hoPe within life's vernal bower . .And o'er a clouded world, , that else were fair, Spreads grief and pain, and darkness and despair. Yet not unknown our theme, to tragic lore: Erst, heard by silver Arno's peaceful shore, And where broad Danaw, in imperial pride, Rolls his dark flood to Ocean's stormy tide. To the lone murmurs of the midnight gale The Bard bath potted the melancholy tale; And realms, half-barbarous, o'er his wild harp hung, And wept and wondered as their Poet sung. But here, alas! the Muse resigns her throne, And leaves the scenes beloved, so Ipng her own— Sees her fair realm o'er-run by barbarous hosts Of witches—water dogs—hobgoblinsghosts— A while her power withstands their tierce attackol, 'Till reinforced by desPerate troops of hacks— They charge !—She flies !--,Goths—Vands)artimonsters, thrive, And Tragedy becomes a fugitive. • But these are past, the glittering triumph's o'er, And lima, ruk,-and pageants charm no more. Her star is up— = the Muse returns again— Frieti4 of thi‘Stagel—say, shall she come In vain ? Ia this famed, land, where taste and geniutshine Say, shall your Stage":!—your Classic Stage !—,decline ? , Oh no ! the son of Thespis, dawning bright, • Scatters afar the eiwious clouds of night— • And though the hand be weak that wakes the strain, He comes,, the !Oiliest of a mighty train; ' Be then propitiouiLin this anxious hour— That proves his weakness, or attests his power. Be just—yet kind—take this his first essay But as the promise of a brighter day. EPILOGUE, by W. 11. STACK, Esq. Spoken by Mr. YATES. There ends at-last, thank Heaven, their tragic scene, Their wounds are staunched—their daggers are wiped clean— Heroes and heroines, these tools of fate, Are snugly sitting round the Green-room grate. The brave—the fair—the living, and the dead, Arc slily laughing at the tears you shed ; And for the hours they tried those tears to win, They send me forth to try to make you grin.

An officer stated on taking the prisoners'into custody, they said the property was in pledge, and that the wife had done it , by the request of her husband. A pawnbroker, with whom a sheet had been pledged, proved that the property was pawned by the female prisoner. Cullen, in his defence, did not deny the charge, and stated that his wife had pledged the articles by his desire ; it was distress at the time, and his intention was to have redeemed them before he left the lodgings. The COMMON SERGEANT summed up the evi deuce to the Jury, who pronounced a verdict of Guilty against John Cullen, and acquitted G race, his wife, OLD COURT, DEc. 3. OPINION OF THE TWELVE JUDGES., . • 'IN TUE MATTER OF NoIIZitT'RAI-Le Tins prisoner, it will be in the recollection of our rUtujOri,wes tried andlound guilty of the crime of arson at the tuit - Siissitniti, hOriving been proved to have set fire to R house described Les' rf el/inthnu se of Mr. Feast of the Strand; On that occasion gie Lennie Counsel who defended the prisoner tooltivi 'objec. tion, namely, that Mr. Fermi having taken the benefit of,the In. • solvent Debtors' Act, had assigned over his property.; 'amongst which was the lease of the house in quettion,..to.the provi. sional assignee of the Court, in whom the legal posp4t”ion wag vested, and consequently the;house ought to have beendekeribed as the property of the assignee and not' of Mr. Feain. This objection Mr. Justice (ucke had the case submitted to the Judges, who having maturely considered of the same, declared the objection to be insupportable, and it was aceordingly over. ruled. This being the case, the prisoner will receive sentence of death at the end of the SesslOO. • ATTEMPT AT. MURDER.—On the COMMON Sf.:II,IEANT taking his seat, the London prisoners were arraigned.. Saiend Devon was then put on his trial for attempting, on the 30th of O cto b er l ast , to kill and murder Mary his wife, by shooting at her with a pistol. The prisoner wore large dark bushy whiskers and mustachios, and was generally dressed in black. On the witnesses being called, the wife came into Court, and the prisoner immediately fixed his eyes on her with a peculiar fire, and tittered a most dreadful oath, accusing her of incon stancy and perjury. He was, however stopped by the officers, and The prosecutrix was then sworn, and deposed to the circum stances that occurred on the occasion in question, in the same way that appeared in our reports of the mquiriet on the dif ferent examinations. In addition, it appeared that the unfbr. tunate man had twice attempted his own life. • In fact, his be. haviour on coming into Court clearly chewed that the pooi fellow laboured under a strong aberration of intellect. The COMMON SEUJEANT here suggested to the. Jury whether it would be necessary to go on further, at the same time intimating to them, if they had the least doubt, the pro. priety of proceeding. The jury consulted for some moments, and then found the prisoner Not .Guilty on the ground of in sa nity. This verdict haying been recorded,the prisoner bowed and left the Court. Ile will of course be continued in custody Jinni dm pleasure of his Majesty is known. MERCANTILE SHIPPING. DEAL, DEC. 3.-5 v. M.
