FRENCH PAPERS. (From the Courier Francais.) PARIS, OCT. 10.—The German Journals, which have arrived to-day, do not mention that hostilities have yet been commenced on the part of the English against the Greeks, agreeably to the Proclamation of the Lord High Commis missioner of the lonian Islands. By the last English Journals received, it appears that this hews bad not then arrived in England. Undoubt edly it will cause a lively indignation among all the who are worthy of the name, and who have already given to the Greeks so many proofs of the interest they take in their success. It may be conceived that an English Pro-Consul :nay have published the odious Decree we no ticed yesterday, but it seems impossible for the Government of Great Britain to take on itself, in the face of Europe, all the opprobrium with which it will be covered by making common cause with the pirates of Algiers and the robbers of Imre. Yesterday came, on for hearing, before the Tribunal of Correctional Police, the affair of the heirs of Fouche, Duke of Otranto, and the book seller M. Lerouge. The heirs of Fouche accuse the bookseller of having falsely attributed to their father the Memoirs recently published. The cause was postponed for a fortnight : we shall give the details when it again comes on. ( Front the Constitutiomie!. ) An old soldier of Fontenoy, 101 years of age, who claimed a cross twenty years ago, has lately received one in consequence of his grandson, an invalid, aged 61, having remarked that his grand father had been forgotten. The Brussel3 Oracle contains the following article:—The population of Madrid has varied in a singular manner ; with '2O years under Charles IV., it was estimated at 156,000 natives, 10,000 foreigners exercising all kinds of trade. During the short reign of Joseph, the munber of inhabit ants diminished a tenth part. Under the Cortes it was augmented. As things are now going on, and if the practice of banishing all the suspected is persisted in, this town will very soon be as silent as the grave. According to the latest news, there are not more than 100,000 people in Madrid ; but us the expulsion is going on with great activity, it is impossible to say where the evil n ill stop. While the population of Madrid is decreasing, that of Brussels is daily increasing. Such is the difference between a Constitutional Government and Absolute Power. SAXONY. 'DRESDEN SF:PT. project of law con. cerning the relation between the Protestants and the Catholics in the kingdom of Saxony-was presented to the Assembly of the States in their last Session, that it might make a declara tion on this subject. (Our Readers know that in Saxony the greater part of the inhabitants are Lutherans, and that but a small proportion professes the Catholic Religion, which is that of the Royal Family.) This declaration was given by the States at the end of the Session. The States, in a memorial of considerable length, and drawn up with equal moderation and frankness, detailed the reasons fur which this law is incompatible with the principles of a real equality between the two Confessions, as it really gives the advantage to the Catholic community.over the Protestant, and would endanger the well-founded liberty of the latter, and even the rightit or the Sovereign. The Assembly proposes in cense quence that the King may be pleased to have this project of law revised, paying attention to the observations which have been made upon it, and have it presented to the next Assembly, that it rimy give a new declaration. Relatively to the important question in which Religion the children born of mixed nuitriages shall be educated, the States hays expressed their conviction that, to prevent all inconve. nience ac.d all violation of rights on this subject, and even to make the minds of fathers and mothers easy, such of whom by a concession on this point would depart from what they owe to their Church, the solution of the question ought not to he left to an agreement between the parents, but should be decided by a law which would exclude all uncertainty. Among the dit. ferent measures adopted in other Stairs on this atthicet the host memo to be that, in mixed- marriages•the sons should follow .the Religion of their father, and the daughter% that of their mother. The States, after having adduced arguments 'in support of this proposal, request that, in case the King should approve of' it, his Majesty would he pleased to give it the form of a law as soo: as possible, even before the next Session of the State.— ( Oracle of Brussel', Oct. 104 PORTUGA L. ^ ....00P.- The following is an extract of a private letter from Lisbon " LISBON, OCT. 2.—Wo have reports here to-day •of an express having arrived, bringing- accounts from Madrid of sonic serious disturbances having taken place there.

" Lisbon, Sept. 23, 1824." By the Hercules, arrived at Holyhead, letters from Buenos Ayres to the 18th of July have been received. They report a rumour, which was mentioned in the preceding arrivals, of the death of VALDEZ, the Spanish Royalist General, and ene of the ablest supporters of that rause hi Peru. These letters bring intelligence from the army of BoLiv.tit, the date of which, however, is not Mentioned, stating that he had reviewed his army, which was in the best possible condition. The reinforcements from Colombia had not ar rived ; but transports had been dispatched to Guayaquil to,receive them, and they were there• lure d a ily gspected.—Ciforning Paper.) GREECE. The following is an extract of a letter received from Mr. BLAtaultitz by the Secretary of the Greek Committee : " We sailed . from Napoli di Romania on the 29th of August, touched at Zante on the 31st, and left it on the following day ; put into Malaga for water, and have been seventeen days on our passage thence. With respect to the state of !inks in the confederations when we left, I am justified in represent ing it as very prosperous. You have, of course, received the account and details of Admiral Scatuvi's gallant exploit in destroying a Turkish line-of-battle ship, a frigate, and a corvette, together with a number of transports, in the vicinity of Samos, on the 20th of August, and without any greater force than a squadron of eighteen Greek ships. The total failure of Mehemet Ali's formidable expedition must also be known to the friends of Greece in England. At Sa lona and its neighbourhood the successes have been most brilliant, the army of Dervish Pasha having been beaten and dispersed some days before my departure from Napoli di Ro mania. The Prince Maurocordato, from whom I found letters at Zante, had advanced into Acarnania, and established his head-quarters at Lidourike, where a large force was collected to attack the Pacha of Scutari's troops, but that Chief had been enabled to collect only 2,500 men, and there was con sequently no appearance of any attack on the side of Val tos and Xenoniavis. You must also have heard that the di vision, which had advanced towards Athens, hue been driven back to Negropont. I hope that the first letters you receive will bring an account of the destruction of Mehemet Ali's ar mament. The whole Greek fleet, to the number of 100 sail, was destined for this grand object, and was on its way to Rhodes for the purpose of attacking the enemy," &c. &c. ALGIERS. Notwithstanding the long period which has elapsed since the official notification of the favourable issue of the expedition against Algiers, the public have not yet been acquainted, through that or any other channel, with the terms of the convention which followed the submission of the DEY.— It will be recollected that the points in dispute were the insults offered to the English Consul by a violation of certain privi leges enjoyed by him at Algiers, as the representative of the British nation, and particularly an infraction of that article of the treaty made with Lord Exmotrrit, renouncing the prac tice of condemning Christian prisoners of war to slavery. We are not in possession of the official document, but we under staqd that the following is the subsiance of the DErs decla ration on these two subjects, signed by him and Mr. MAC. noNato,. in his capacity of British Consul-General to the Regemcy of Algiers:— "After the usual preamble, anti referring to the treaties ex isting between Great Britain and Algiers, which provided for the entire safety and freedom of the person and estate of his Majesty's Consul-General, the lley specifically declares that he is readily disposed to comply with the wishes of his Britannic Majesty, in proof of his sincere desire to establish more last ingly the peace and harmony so happily subsisting between Great Britain and his Regency; and he therefore heartily promises,— " hit, That for the future, and for ever, the British Agent and Consul-General residing in the city and kingdom of Algiers shall be treated at all times with the respect and civility due to his character. " 2d, That his person and his house, or houses, shall be inviolable; and if any person irjur.l or insult him, by words or deeds, such person shall be severely punished. " 3d, That he shall have liberty to choose his own interpret. ers and servants, either Mussulmen or others, who are not to pay any tax or contribution whatever. " 4th, That he shall have the liberty at all times of hoisting his Majesty's flag at the top of his house either in town or country, and in his boat when he passes on the water. " ath, That he shall not pay duty for furniture, clothes, baggage, or any other necessaries which he imports into the city or territories of Algiers, for the use of himself or of his family; and that if the nature of his Britannic Majesty's ser vice, or any other motive, require his absence from the king dom, neither himself, his servants, baggage, nor efrects, shall be stopped or detained upon .any pretence whatever, but that he shall have free leave to go and return as often as he may think it necessary ; and finally, that all honours or privileges that are now, or may hereafter be granted to the Agent, Consul, or Vice-Consul of any other Power, shall likewise be granted to his Britannic Majesty's Agent, and ConsulAieneral, and to his Vice-Constd. On the other point the Day distinctly declares, that he is willing to abide in the strictest manner by a former declaration, concluded by his Highness's predecessor Omar liashaw, with Lord Exmouth, in 1816, engaging, that in the event of any future war with any European Power, not any of the prisoners should be consigned to slavery, but treated with all humanity as prisoners of war, according to European practice, and by which declaration the practice of condemning Christian pri sorters of war to slavery was formally renounced." The clause in the above declaration, wherein it is stipulated that the British Consul shall have the liberty " of hoisting his 111,kiesty's flag at the top of hilt house, either in town or country, or in his boat when he passes on the water," is, we understand, perfectly novel, no consular flag ever having been hoisted by the British, or by any other nation. It is, therefore, at the re quest of the Dey, privately stipulated, that the hoisting of the British Consular flag over the house in the town of Algiers is not to be enforced, the Dey declaring, in the most explicit terms, under his hand and seal, that the absence of the British flag over the town house shall not deprive it of any of the pri vileges to which the hoisting of the flag would entitle it. The prisoners of war detained at Malta in consequence of the hostilities with th e D e y o f Al g i ers, were embarked on the 111th of August on board of his Majesty's ships Phaeton and Cyrene, which sailed the next day for the purpose of restoring them to their country and their fainilies. The Phaeton carried 151 to Algiers, and the Cyrene 59 to Bona. They had been in con finement since April, when the greeter part of them were in a diseased state, from the hardships they underwent on they pil grimage, for they were detained on their return from Mecca. They had been subsequently completely restored to health, and in departing expressed their gratitude ter the treatment they had received during their detention in Fort Nt. &Isadore. THE ARMY.

'CAUTION TO THOSE PURCHASING MUSIIIIOOIII9 --Last week the family of Mr. SeLATT, of Bridgewater, was thrown into the greatest state of alarm from the following circumstances : Raving purchased a quantity of mush-rooms, they partook of them for supper, but had not long re. tired to rest, before they were all seized with a violent degree of sickness, and a swelling of the body. Medical assistance was immediately pro cured, and we are happy to state., that the prompt administration of necessary drugs ultimately re lieved them, and they are consequently now out. of danger. Too much caution cannot be used in the purchase of this description of plant for do mestic purposes, as so little difference sometimes exists -between it and what is vulgularly termed a toad-stool, the latter of which is well known to possess poisonous qualities, and must if taken, evcn in a moderate degree, prove fatal.

(From the Calcutta Julia 1101.1 PROTESTANT EPISCOPAL VISITATION and OR DINATION at the CATHEDRAL, CALCUTTA, on ASCENSION-DAY, THURSDAY, MAT 27. After the morning service for the day, which was read by the Rev. T. Thomasomtunior, Chaplain at the Preeidency,the Visi whin Sermon was preached by' the Rev. Dr. Parish, the Garri son Chaplain of Fort William, from Ezek. xxxiv. 23.—" And I will set on one shepherd ; and he shall feed them ; he shall feed them, and he shall be their shepherd." After explaining the words spoken as referring to God, and the shepherd sent its his son, he enlarged on the duties of spiritual shepherds, and ad dressed the Clergy present; then adverted to the Missionaries who were sent by the Society for Promoting Christian Know ledge, and the Society for Propagating the Gospel—to the zeal necessary to bring such Missionaries here, and the ardour and Importance of the duties in which they had engaged ; conclud ing an appropriate and impressive sermon with a suitable ap plication to the new candidate for ordination this day. After the sermon, the Lord Bishop of Calcutta took his seat at the altar, and the Clergy, being assembled near the altar, were then addres se d by th e L or d - Bishop, seated in his chair, and we trust our readers will feel interested in the following brief and imperfect abstract of his Lordship's discourse. His Lordship commenced his charge by congratulating the Clergy on the probable increase of their number from 211 to 31; parental anti and care expressed which promptedsincere t o gratitude beneficialfor a the n e m m u u n r i e fi t ce n n munificent statement so furentoitetexte therittt nlzealo wantsf ourof India, n b d r i e a t , h T e s n Lordship thom e u n s c conceived, would to show the reason t t i n i sdaep of p o ourint and e r r e s der while i n i t t he w l o te n ti d ew s d e e r n y t e and Christian solici we have to be grateful for the measures they have already adopted. enteredtip India, tinto order some to detail po ecclesias ticales s i t a 4 b i li i s al ; e flierip rt i n de ficiency was principally observable, and the causes from which it had proceeded. int o o u f t where the t i the Those (continued his Lordship, while speaking of the back wardness of the English Clergy to enter into the service in ques tion), those, indeed, would be much mistaken, who should an ticipate in the fortunes of an Indian Chaplain a life of indo lence, of opulence, of luxury. An Indian Chaplain must come prepared for Mira labour, in a climate where labour is often death ; he must conic prepared for rigid self-denial in situations where all around him incites to sensual indulgence ; he must be content with an income, liberal indeed in itself, but altoge ther disproportioned to the charities, the hospitalities, the un avoidable expences to which his situation renders him liable.— lie must be content to bear his life in his hand, and to leave, very often, those dearer than life itself to his care alone, who feeds the ravens and who never or most rarely suffere the seed of the righteous to beg their bread. Nor are the qualifications which he will need, nor the duties which will be imposed on him, less arduous th a n t h e per il s of his situation.

But to the well-tempered, the well-educated, the diligent, and pious clergyman—who can endear himself to the poor without vulgarity, and to the rich without involving himself in their vices; who can reprove sin without harshness, and com fort penitence without undue indulgence ; who delights in his master's work even when divested of many of those outward cir cumstances, which, in our own country, contribute to render that work picturesque and interesting; who feels a pleasure in bringing men to God, proportioned in the extent of their previ ous wanderings;—to such a man as Murtyn was—l can romiee iso common usefulness and e nj o y ment i n t h e situation of' an In. diar. chaplain. I can promise, in any station to which he may be assigned, an educated society and an alinomt unbounded range of usefulness. I can promise him the favour of his su pesters, the friendship of his equals, and affection, strong as death, front those whose wanderings he corrects, whose dis tresses he consoles, and by whose sick and dying bed he stands as a ministering angel. Are further inducements needful ?- 1 can promise to such a man the esteem; the regard, the veneration of the surrounding Gentiles, die consolation at least of having removed from their minds by his blameless life and winning mummers, some of the most inveterate anti injurious prejudices which oppose themselves to the Gospel,—and the honour, it may be, of which examples are not wanting among you, of planting dieseross of Christ in the wilderness of a heathen heart, and extending the frontiers of the visible Church amid the hills of darkness, and the strong holds of error and idolatry. His Lordship then adverted to the great assistance afforded to the Ministers of the Gospel in India by the parental care . of Government, the b ounty o f in di v id ua l s, an d th e labours of the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge; in the establish ment of Schools, the distribution of religious tracts , and the management offending libraries, which Lordship wished to become univer sa l. The Missionaries who attended the visitation were then ad. dressed by the Bishop, who alluded to the intent and importance of their labours ; and this led his Lordship to the consideration of the great question of the conversion of the heathen, and to some remarks on the late publication of the Abbe du Bois. The unchristian spirit in which that work is written was severely aid deservedly reproved ; and his gross mis-statements were confuted by an appeal to the Protestant converts of Agra, of ne nares, of Meerut. and of Chuna. " Bear witness," said his Lordship, " those numerous believers of our own immediate neighbourhood, with whom though we differ on many, anti doUlniess on very important points, I should hate myself if I could regard them as any other than my brethren anti fellow. servants in the Lord. Leletie populous Christian districts of Malabar bear witness, where believers are not reckoned by so. litary individuals, but by hundreds and by thousands. Bear witness Ceylon, where the cross has lost its reproach, and the chief s o f t h e land are gradually assum i ng, w i t h out scruple, the attire, th e l anguage, and time religion of Englishmen. And let hint finally bear witness, whom we have now received into the number of the commissioned servants of the church, and whom we trust, at no distant day, to send forth, in the full ness o f his Chri countrymenstian authorit fr oy, m whose to make err nown rs he the has h way imse of truth to those lf been gra ciously delivered."

In alluding to the character and Episcopal labours of the late excellent Bishop Middleton, his Lordship observed, that had the mind of that great and good man been attracted to secular pur poses, he was possessed of every quality on which the world be stows its favour. But though his memory was stored with all profane and civil literature, the application of his learning anti talents was to Ecclesiastical purposes alone. lie was, per haps, the second critic of his age, yet be edited no Greek classics : he•was stored, said his Lordship, as I have been as sured, with an inexhaustible supply of lighter and more ele gant literature, yet he sought to be remembered. as a divine and iheologian alone. Nay more, when his life-long labours were at length approaching to their term, as if fearing the applause of men even in those branches of learning which were strictly appropriate and ministerial, he consigned as a last sacrifice, his laboured manuscripts to the flames, content to live only in the memory of those who loved and honoured him, and de siring no further praise than that which lie shill one day re. ceive of " Well done ! good and faithful servant !" This—continued his Lordship in conclusion—this is a copious subjeet, and one on which I should have been tempted to en large, if I were not aware of your exhausted condition, from the length which this morning's service hs already reached ; and if, to say the truth, my own feelings were sufficiently tran quil to indulge in the praises of one whom I had not the happi. ness to know, while I am yet smarting under the recent loss of a t 3 de talents, s t t s i , n g f u r ti m l e d w h a o t s i d e n e m x c i el a l h e l o n t t el f r o i e p n e d r f f r r o o whose i h n e r n e t . ligious principles, and his repeatedds , it l th y le - s e ne x tc p u; ressed intention of votingde mth(o) sttGito his , frartnoaimip) important ample nmhdoemae essential he received ai powerful mind to the service of the Indian church, and furthering th e triumphantrin t d h a e n i t ) i i c p( i rs p op a we t r e d ei st ys t 00 1 he most those gospels in which his hope and heart were laid up, and in which, while lie lived, his life was hidden. A few days only are gone, since, with animation on his be nevolent countenance, he expressed to me his gratitude to God for the many blessings he had received, and his desire to dedi cate to God, through Jesus Christ, a larger proportion of his time, his means, and his influences : a few hours only are past since those good resolutions are gone thither, where they are best known and appreciated by a gracious God, whom he had servedfrom his youth, and who, when his noon oflife had scarcely begun to decline, saw fit to call him to his recompence and his re. t p i o ie s c causeln ifm! here tnodthtehriotonggilloo-anteillieawn church—in him poor of every caste and country have lost a fearless, a kind , a boun. missions tiful, and unpretending friend; but he will not have died in vain if the consideration of his sudden mortality induces us to ponder the worth of this world in regions where the present moment is all which we can be said to hold of it ; and so teach us to number our days that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom. Finally, Brethren, farewell ; be . patient and watch unto prayer, and be dilient in the functions of your stewardship, for behold he comethi quickly, and blessed is that servant whom his Lord when he conical shall find so doing ! His Lordship concluded his admirable and truly Christian charge with a short hut appropriate prayer.
