)i I ,: ~ ~,-~ 'o' E C ssucti.e tilIT (From the Mimittur of Tuesday, Av. St) , Avosanao, 23,—Letters from Trieste. state that Mavrocordato has performed an trn. portant service to his countrymen, by suspending, for this campaign at least, the warlike prepare- . lions of the partisans of the Turks in the western Fart of Greece. A convention of neutrality has been concluded with Omer Vrione, who is there-1 1 13 r placed in a situation which must filially em broil him with the Divan, and therefore lie can no longer reckon on the favour of the Sul tan. Advantageous arrangements with the Chiefs of some Albanian Tribes compel the Paella of Scutari to observe also a kind of neutrality,, and it is even said that he has commenCod a secret negociation with Mavrocordato. The Seraskier, Dervisch Pacha, whose head-quarters are a Larissa, has received successive accounts - of the re-taking of Ipsara, and of the disasters experienced by -the Captain Paella's fleet. These news have caused a great sensation in the Ottoman army. The Seraskier immediately sent a mes senger to Constantinople to demand speedy rein forcements, without which he must evacuate Thessaly. I.Prom the Conttitutionral of roesday.l BUCHAREST, Auta. 7.—The post from Constan tinople not only announces that I psara has f►een re-taken by the Greeks, but also that the Cap• tain Pacha is blockaded in Mitylene. Two ex traordinary couriers coming from Constaistitople and going to Vienna passed through here yester day. At this moment the report has got into circulation that the Captain Paella has left Mity- Jene, but was attacked by the Greeks, and lost a largo part of his fleet. • VIENNA, AUG. ,20.--(Ea►trflct .of Private Lettcr).—Letters have arrived from Pera by the courier of the Austrian Jnternuncio, who left on the 27th July. They explain the reports which have been circulated hero on the advantages said to have been.gained , by the -Greeks. .They are much greater than was at first supposed. A let!. ter written by an Austrian merchant contains the, following details :--- "The Captain Paella's plan of operation has entirely failed. hie cannot continue to act against the Greeks, .and he has lost all the fruits of treason, and several of his vessels are destroyed. His transports have been taken by the Greeks, who are •again masters of Ipsara, now occupied by a numerous corPs Of Greeks..

It would be very astonish inf.; that an event of this importance should not have been known on the 17th at Smyrna, which is distant only one day's sail from Ipsara. After the conquest of the island, the Greeks, in order to diminish the effect it must necessarily produce, have endeavoured to circulate all kinds of reports."--IThe Journal then quotes the subsequent statements, in letters inserted in the Allgerneine Zcitung,l—(FryznhArt Paper, Aug. 26.) (From the Morning Chronicle.) The following extract of a letter from an English gentleman of education at Smyrna must be auflicient, one should think, to excite a feeling of the deepest interest in the success of the' Christian inhabitants of Greece, in their struggle against hordes of savage barbarians, who triumph in human suffering, and whose existence in Europe is a disgrace to civilised society.— The heroic defence of Ipiara, and the victims of its fall, create mingled sentiments of admiration and disgust ; for the explo. sin of the Fort of St. NicolO, and the landing at. Smyrna of the victims of the tragedy, must for ever fix in the minds of En. glishmen admiration for the bravery of the descendants of the former civilizes of mankind, and disgust at the degradation to which the petty jealousy of European Legitimate Monarchs now retluces them. An English lady has only for &moment to fancy herself in the situation of the unfortunate Greek lady, whom the gentleman who wrote the annexed letter saw landed at Smyrna, and she will be able to form some idea of the ex. trcme of human suffering. On the future fate of the infant blitiC* it is disgusting even for one moment to reflect. This system cannot, however, last, for the indignation of civilised Europe must soon prevent the exercise of farther barbarity. • EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM SMYRNA, DATED JULY 1 After describing the Cspture of Ipsara by the Turks, of which the details have already appeared in this Journal, and there fore it is unnecessary to report them, the writer says— . • " Whilst I am writing, numbers of vessels and boats are ar riving from 'pure, loaded with troops and their plunder, for every man has a right to all he secure*. I have seen landed some little children, who are made slaves, and a few women, one very handsomely dressed in Satin . , all in possession of the brutal soldiers, and will soon be offered to the highest bidder. This is a heart-rending scene, and one which makes an Eng lishman shudder. Some of the children are pretty little creatures of two and. three years old, And Are totally unconscious of their misfortunes. Sacks of clothes, and furniture, and jewels, and money, are also being unloaded. One man *hewed 500 dollars, and another produced .130 doubloons, to-day a Turk brought a large bag-full of ladies' silk and satin gowns belonging to the Ipsariots, and asked me to purchase them. Another man brought me two antique rings, which I might have bought for a trifling sum. There is one thing consoling, however, with 'regard to the captives -which the Turks take in their warfare. It is, that they are generally very kind to them, es. pecially to the children ; and it is very common to see a great attachment between the Turk and his little slave, who often is treated like his own child. However Subscrip tions Will most likely be raised' 'amongst the Franks here, and the greater part of . 'quihe taken at Ipsara will he pur6ased and set at • Pei:4r. Astonishing deeds of he:views ere related of tlie*ifiten of Ipsara in the late affair; many of them defended themselves sword in hand, and in some instances, after having slain two or three of the enemy, Auve deliberately stabbed themselves, exclaiming, We are not Mots patiently to give . .up our lives and liberty in other ' instances they sacrificed tbeir, children, and afterwards them selves ; on this account; it . 14 said,:that there are so few cap tives, compared with the number slain.

Ipsera and Mytelene three days before the late affair ; at the latter place, I saw the whole Turkish fleet, consisting of about two hundred sail of various sizes. It is difficult to ascertain the num. hers killed during the whole conffici. The Tiirkish troops are any thing but regular bodies, under the command of officers of dinrent grades of rank; they nigh into battle with astonishing impetuosity ; every mai l ; as it were:lights on his own account ; and whether he be slain or taken prisoner, or whatever may befal him, remains unregistered. Per haps ten thousand individuals may have been lost in all, of which not more perhaps than 3,000 were actually Turks ; how ever, I again repeat, the numbers cannot be ascertained, I was conversing the other day with a person who witnessed the explosion of the Castle of St. Nicolo in Ipsara ; he was at sea, about three miles from the spot ; he describes it as a most ter rific scone; and he says that it caused such a shock, that he thought his vessel had struck upon a rock. A great number of the Turkish troops are arriving from Ipsara, and a vast many others are leaving the city to join the Captain Pacha's fleet. I have lately returned from Constantinople, where I have been spending a few weeks, for I adhere to the English custom of spending a short tints in excursion every year. I vies amazingly ploaaed with the trip. I went over land, and returned by sea. No description can, I think, ado quatelyoletare the scenery of - Constantinople anti its environs; the liosiitforus is beyond any. thing you can well imagine. I staid sufficiently long in Constantinople to see all its wonders. I was at Belgrade, and at the very house from which Lady ;'.Montague dated many of her letters 100 years ago; her descriptions of Turkey are very entertaining, hut rather highly ,coloured. On my way back to Smyrna, I hired a Turkish boat, and four stout Greek rowers, from Constantinople to the partlaneiles.. This gave me the opportunity of visiting the European shores of the sea of Marrnora, and both shores of the Hellespont. I bathed betweeen Abydos and Sestos, and carulidlyeonfese I would not have undertaken Leantler's feat even for his prize. I visited the plains of Troy, and saw thoie• Which are suPposed to be the tombs of the heroes of that mentorabbiriliege ; they point out those of Ajax, Hector, Paris, Priani, and , 4thers. Standing on the tomb of Hector, you have a splendid view of nearly all the district of 'Truss, with the Island of Tenedos. Our air has lately been filled with hundreds of millions of locusts," &c. &c. The following is an extract of a letter from Trieste dated the lath August, received yesterday by an eminent mercantile , house in the city :—" We have advices here from Egypt, "rhat, on the 15th of July the squadron of'the Paella was to sail from Alexandria with 16,000 regular troops, disciplined in the European manner, in order to give the finishing stroke to the unfortunate Greeks. Since the taking of Ipsara nothing has been heard of the fleet of the C4itan Paella. The Greeks talk of having retaken Ipsara, but this is very far from being official ; and at any rate they can only have recovered a mass of ruins, because such was the state in which the Turks left that most unfortunate island.' SOUTH OF SPAIN. EXTIRACT or A LETTER FILOI4 CADIZ, DATED AUG. 16. 44 Spain, unhappy Spain, is again likply to be come the theatre of anarchy and civil war. The disturbances which first broke out at Algesiran and Tarifa, •and which were sneered at by the Franck, have now assumed a more formidable appearance, and NU widely and rapidly extending to the neighbouring towns and to the ioteriorof the country,— Throughout all Andalosiiathe greatest c"iiteinent itt produced, and almost all the horsed are. twitted 4, tlti ieW, pArty, and taken to the mountains terform light troops , to senor:the coun try, and to communicate with one 7413 1 TO= irig brought the news of Ayamontc having fallort - in.x).the.hands,Of the Spaniards, but it Is not yet cat - in - nett • laast mid indeed for several nights, pest, beats were_observed . to out of the bay, and proceed 'towards Gibraltar ; 'but it is tiS, eertained, beyond a doubt, that their real object was to make a landing in some convenient place on the shore, to co=operate with their brethren in arms. It is well known to the Autho rities that upwards of 800 men left Cadiz to join'tlieinsur gents since last Sunday; but last night, the sea being calM, and the moon shi n i ng c l ear l y , t h e y were discoverol by the French ships, and a heavy firing commenced, which obliged some of the boats to return, with several of the crew wound ed. In this city the police establishment is much increased, and the greatest vigilance is observed both by the French and Spanish Authorities. On Sunday the Ayuntamiento of Cadiz held a secret meeting, and it was there proposed, by one of the body, to arrest all those who were known to be notorious Con stitutionalists ; but as yet this bold measure has not been car ried into effect. " I should inform you, that the French very seriously charge the merchants of Gibraltar with having been the promoters of these disturbances, and that, too, with and through the connive ance of the local authorities-of that place, and, as they very publicly assert, fur the sole and entire purpose of preventing Spain from sending out an expedition to South America. The French are more desirous now (and for some time past they have manifested the same feelingTof cultivating the friendship of the late Constitutional party; but their hatred of the French is too great to be any longer cajoled by mere empty phrases. They accuse the French of having acted a double part since they entered Spain, and in place of mediating in favour of the compromised party, that they have secretly promoted their pro• scription, although they seemed to take a lively interest on the side of rational freedom. This, at least, is the language held by the Constitutionalists, and as they therefore suppose the French are favoured by neither party, the Spaniards who are at the head of the present disturbances have taken advantage of this circumstance, and in place of publishing the Constitution, they only issue proclamations, calling on their country to unite to drive the common enemy from their shores. This, of course, is done with a design to rouse the Royalists. Should this cir cumstance happen (which, by the bye, I do not think possible), the French have no other remedy but to quit Spain as soon as possible. - " Tito Trench have two objects in view: one, to allay th e present bernmotione a s soon as possible, and with the least pos. tibia loss on either sid e , treating the unfortunate and deluded people who may fall into their hands with kindness and c l e . mency : the other (should they find the liberal party burner oust and resolute to promote civil war with the greatest acti. vity), to engage the clergy on their side, to prevent a collision between the parties. You will see very clearly from thi s , t h at they have not a very solid footing on the shores of Old Spain. No matter how much Spaniard may oppose Spaniard, there is one thing they agree in, and that is an eternal hatred to all foreigners, to whatever country they belong. Were the - French to keep possession of Spain for 20 years, they would find the lime prejudices at the end of that period in the rising gmera. don. Until these disturbances terminate one w ay or the abet,. you may expect the most correct and carly inforniatiobby every conveyance."—(Aforning Paper.) SOCIETY of FRIENDS of FOREIGNERS IN DISTRESS. . . • • Toterday a General Court of the Directors of ,this excelkn; Institution was held at the City of London Tasfeit, and rartediltstely• aft Mit WS a meeting of the Directors toiiislalace, for this purpose of :"conflrrritni?lthe Minutes of the laSt,(leneral tirt, and adopting additional measures for the benefit of the IdstitutiOtl . —SAMUEL WEBB, Esq. in the Chair. A desultory conversation took place upon a suggestion thrown out by one of the Governors that it would be ad visable to appoint ten or twelve i Directors to visit the abodes, of applicants for relief, as a means of more cor rectly ascertaining the degree 6/ assistance which it would be necessary to afford, . and it was agreed to submit the proposition to the next General Meeting. It was also pro posed to appoint some capable person to make inquiries with respect to , those claimants for relief, who might have pa rochial claim's in this country. It was Mentioned by one of the Directors that this latter duty would not readily be undertakers by one of their body, as it would doubtless .be at. tended with considerable sacrifice of time and trouble ; and a parish officer, who was probably the.most competent to act en such an occasion, would perhaps make such a demand for his trouble as the institution could not afford. It was resolved that this point also should be submitted to the general meeting. The Report of the Board of Directors to the annual General Court was then confirmed. It stated that in addition to the list of Royal subscribers, his Majesty the King of the Netherlands had lately appeared, having transmitted a donation of 2001. and become one of the protectors of the establishment. By means of the seasonable supply bestowed on the Institution in the past Tear, the Directors had been enabled to carry on their proceed ings with somewhat less embarrassment than was previously experienced, and to alleviate a great mass of the most compli cated human misery. The stun expended in the last year in relieving the objects of the Charity amounted to 1,111/. The benefit of weekly. pen sions had been continued to 60 aged and helpless persons; as sistance had been given casually in 1639 instances of other des titute foreigners and their fatuities, and 71 of them have beep helped to return to their native countries. The Directors have by their extiniination at their meetings, anti other inquires, en deavoured to form a true estimate of the merits and wants of the applicants and though they have from 30 to 40 petitions at each of their weekly meetings, with very few exceptions all those who received assistance were reduced to want by misfor tune alone. The funds were however so limited, that in many cases of great distress but very slight relief could be given. Mr. Murray, the Secretary, in enumerating the various cases which' had been relieved, mentioned that of a German, 68 years of age, whom the Directors had found quite hepless, and unable to support himself, being deprived of the use of his linibs by paralysis, and his intellect being considerably impair ed. The papers of this unfortunate foreigner proved him to have been possessed of great abilities and uncommon acquirements. At college he was held in the highest estimation, as appeared from several testimonials. At a late period he was employed in diplomatic affairs, and held the rank of Privy Councillor under some of the German Governments, and his name had been men timed honourably in the public Journals of that time. In 1806 he came to reside with 4 relation in London, where his property gradually dinillaished, and his health declined. After the death of this relation, in 1314, he went . to France; but not succeed ing, he returned to England five or six years ago to realise the property which had been left to hint by his deceased relation. Ile then discovered that there was not enough to satisfy the creditors. Body and mind suffered from repeated paralytic strokes ; but unconscious of his forlorn condition, he was re commended to the notice of the Directors, front whom he re ' ceived us liberal an allowance as their means permitted ; and the case becoming known to the Patrons, the relief added by them now enabled the object of their charity to enjoy during the remainder of his days all the comforts that his infirmities allow. • — lt was to be hoped that a Society which professed and accom plished sonoblean objectas that to which its name bore testimony, would speedily improve so much in its pecuniary condition, as to enable the Directors to enlarge their sphere of action. In deed, as was justly observed the other day by the Lord Mayor, in the case of a man from Lubec, who would compel the So., tidy to contribute-to his relief, the Institution exceeded the limas which the regulations prescribed. It appeared from his Lordship's observations on the subject, that he certainly had a favourable disposition towards the Society. Ilia Lordship dis approved of the narrow contraction which, he contended, was placed upon the rules of the majority of Charities, and took some objection to that which required that a foreigner should be in this country six month: before he could be recognised as a claimant; but when he considered the facilities in time of peace,. particularly which tbreigners had of coming to this country, and the great varieties of deceptions capable of being practised by them, he candidly admitted the necessity of the rule for the prevention of that degree of importation which w w a o s u would completelybe kelyrteol overwhelm us. spokecas e s of forcasualty axed. themselves with the Society, but with respect to candidates who were not suffer ers from shipwrecks or other misfortunes, and destitute in con sequence, it was necessary to make them abide by certain re gulations. The Lord Mayor had observed upon the fact, that there was no parochial provision for English subjects born ,in our Colonies. Ile (11r. M.).regretted that there was not ; but he did not mean to throw any imputation upon the Legislature. Ile, merely stated, that if there was any fault with respect to this regulation about British Colonial subjects, it was that such persons had nu claim upon any fund for &fraying their ex penses One of the Directors said, that if the regulation alluded to in the' first instance were not adhered to • except in eases of neces sity and considerable distress, the funds would be very soon an- Dutchman told him the other day, that his coun. trlthen assured him that a man might almost pick up gold in the streets of London.—(A laugh)—and the general feeling on the Continen t was that a n adventurer if Its failed in speculations here need rot care about that, as there was a Society that would acid them home. Now isths belief must be put an end to, and the above regulation was neesSary for that purpose. The CHA IR MAN said, that the regulation counteracted what said against the Society formerly, that it would en tilmbegcejhreigners to come over, and depend upon our benevo lence. Ile had waited upon the Lord• Mayor, of whose bene volent views and of- the clearness of whose understanding lie had the highestopinion, and pointed out to him that very rule as an unfeeling rebutment of the report. The minutes were then agreed to, and thanks having been voted iti t ! n a l Chairman, st iie euipeculiar t t o h e t h A is l e i e n t s i n ti g t broke lllu t ititpt when any case of great distress appears, the patrons dip their hands into their own pockets, as If there was no claim upon their funds.

On Monday last a numerous assemblage of the Freemen and others, determined to support Mr. Clive as can• didate for the representation of Hereford, at the next election, met that Gentleman at a dinner to which they had invited bite, at the Green Dragon inn, Hereford. . Sir G. CORNEWALL, the chairman, addressed the elect ing in terms of the highest respect and most cordial esteem to wards Mr. Clive. He assured them that in his opinion Mr. Clive was in every respect qualified to represent them in Par. Bement. They had known him as a neighbour said a friend nearly 30 years, and he felt that his birth and conne xions, his rank and fortune, his integrity and talent, his high sense, of honour, his public independence, and his private worth, were such as could not fail to make leien..a proper object of Oleic choice. For himself, he had no doubt of the fa vourable result of the present contest, and he should give his vote and interest to Mr. Clive, " with all his heart and all his soul." He theti proposed, " Health anti success to Mr. Clive ;" which was ceived with universal acclamation. Mr. CLIVE thanked Sir G. Cornewall for the many marks of kind friendship he had shown him. lie observed, diet at many political meetings in this city he bad declare d his public sentiments--sentirnents which he assured the present meeting remained unaltered ; for the more he considered them, the mg was he confirmed in their propriety : but, fortunately, `MITAor' circumstances has arisen since the termination of the war rill France, which, added perhaps, to his more advanced age, inlfht render him less ardent In his political pursuits than at an order • period. Some changei, also, (in his mind much for the better), had taken place in his 3lajesty's Councils. The present Seem tary for Foreign affairs seemed to adopt m o r e enlarged and libe• • sal line of policy than his predecessor, and appeared to abandon the principles of the " Holy Alliance." H e conceived thsta llisn ee to beniostimproperly if not blasphemously socalled , and he coil?ti view it in no other light than a conspiracy of cro wned heeds_ , against the liberties of mankind. The present Chswllor of the Exchequer was mueli superior, in every respect , to his decessor, and afforded hopes of gradual amelioration in ltis tie. pertinent. Having thus declared that the aband onment of t h e Holy Alliance was a leading feature of improvement in our . fe7 reign policy, lie would ow advert to what he thought advissun to be done at home. l o wa his fervent wish that Ireland shoul d he looked. upon, and placed in the situation of an integral P.sr!, of this great empire, and that the utmost religio us tolerstiood should prevail throughout it. Good men were to be fou A in all religious persuasions ; nor could any religion whate Y " - obtain credit in the world, unless it inculcated good moriels•—',e, For his part, he should no more deem it necessary i n these ti to ask a person what was his religious creed before he stas e cw ur ; ployed in the service of the State, titan, were he in a 511 3 " let to a storm, he should think it necessary to ask a ekilf P' ; • on board what were his religious opinions before he C ou sioned him to take the helm and save the vessel.llP:s. ject of further improvements, he professed his anxiun s w L e e for the freedom of the press ; full aware, however, that checks were necessary to guard a gainst g its licentiousness,_ adopting particularly such means as might prevent th the culation and prevalence of private slander. To ensure advantages he looked to the necessity of a House d Ord mans being so formed as to represent the real feelings aby sentiments of the people ;in his opinion, the House, n „ constituted, did not possess that most desirable eila" t r :, On this subject he had never been an advocate for ori e ly e it sal su ff rage, nor for annual parliaments. They who AT ! . I him, and they who had acted with him in different P d associations, were well aware that he had ever opposed t ee l.4 „l 4 a 'doctrines. In his opiniou, the representation of the should not be the property of any individual • lie wished t 3 t ; an occupation of theyearly value of 10/., which according e present law conferred paroehial settlement, should also Cr fer the privilege of a vote ; and he was induced to particulerli,l On the To this, in consequence of the assertions of the enemies of reforn,', that there was no settled plan in the Reformer's minds. is' At the present period, he was by no means afraid of abuses bY the Royal prerogative, He wished the Monarch to be able° exercise his constitutional powers, free and unfettered by an t y proprietors of boroughs. It was rare, he believed, that t", 4 King could confer any favour or situation without con sult ' ing tics Ministers, and they, must again consult on the is vices of the candidate's patron. But in a recent insumfey° church preferment ; he not only rejoiced that the Kihg erted his constitutional prerogative on the principles he, " L i• stated, but also on account of the excellent and esteemed n 1 : vidual (well known to most of the present company) who hate pounds u s t r il l fnaevvoeurrsoafw' andlr. hone, ,yhose been thus honourably and deservedly preferred.

Other persons in elevated ranks of society, whos.; indulged themselves (if it could be so termed) in the bad tow of parodying the Holy Scriptures, had not only escaped eel!: • sure, but had received the approbation and reward of itl int• themselves. But the case of Dir. Hone was that of a poeirl r T adopting these means and this bad taste, in order its • bread for his family. Instead of commendation, he met sir" er. secution and punishment ; and the only object of the sUb scr g * tion alluded to was to supply him with the means of o btahllni • a fair trial. He felt assured that the prosecution was not ihs e l; tuted for the honour of religion, because many orthodox divines had lamented that the creed of St. Athanaes!'e formed part of the book of our Common Prayer • but becan in parodying that creed, lie had ridiculed sonic otflik Maiesgb Ministers. Having thus generally stated the measures Seieecir he intended to support when he attained the eituation of T iite representative in Parliament—an honour which lie felt confident of attaining—it would be perfectly indifferent to P ep who looked to measures and not to men, under what egr ei li ef tions the promoters of such measures might be known.
