TILE LONDON JOURNALS. DAILY Extracts from Me Morning Papers, Oct. I. [IIIORNiNCi cultorticLE.] Information was received yesterday by the steam-ship from Holland, which leaves little doubt that the Greek fleet has obtained a great victory over that of the Capitan Pacha, in the vi cinity of she Island of Samos. On Wednesday morning last The Chronicle announced the receipt of the intelligence from Navarino, dated on the 31st of August, of the defeat of the Ottoman fleet, and of the capture of three frigates and about thirty other vessels of an inferior descrip tion. By the Dutch Mail this victory is repre sented to have been much more decisive than the letters from Navarino represented it, for it com municates the receipt of letters from Corfu, dated ou the 31st of August, and on the 3d of Septem ber, which, in addition to the number of Turkish ships, mentioned to have been captured, in the advises from Navarino, state, that the line-of battle ship, which carries the flag of the Captain Pacha, had been blown up during the action, and that his Highness and the whole of the crew had perished in the conflagration. The Greek Ad miral Cattails, un Ipsariot, who, after the late sacking of his native island, had vowed revenge on the authors of that great calamity, is repre sented by the Dutch accounts to have nobly re deemed his pledge, for he commanded in person the fire-ship which was directed against the Turkish Admiral's ship, and fell, with the whole of his gallant comrades, in performing a signal service to his country and to human nature. The devotion which, on all occasions, the Greeks shew in the cause of the independence of their formerly illustrious country, and the desperate nature of the conflict in which they are engaged, induce a confidence in the final issue of their splendid labours in the cause of liberty. It is only extraordinary, that the admiration, which their patriotism and bravery must raise in every mind at all conversant in the history of the hu man race, has not as yet created that sympathy for their sufferings amongst Christian Princes, which would at once restore their country to in dependence, and add to the society of European nations the Empire' of the descendants of the an cient Greeks, to whom civilization is under the deepest obligations. [MORNING HERALD.] Tuesday's Paris Papers arrived last niht.— The entry of Charles X. into the capital is de scribed with the utmost pomp and circumstance. lie was attended by a grand cortege and vast concourse from the barrier, where he had the keys of the city presented to bim, witl► an ad dress from the Municipality—to the cathedral of Notre Dame, where he was addressed with a profusion of pious incense, by the Archbishop of Paris and his Clergy—and thence to the Tuileries. Charles X. does not rival his predecessor in Lora snots. The only one recorded of him, is that after his return to the Tuileries, he declared himself " satisfied and not tired." This may have been very true—but it is also very point less. The fulsome declamations► in some of the Journals, on this occasion, are rare specimens of fustian and effrontery. Facts the most no torious are bounded over, or rather trampled down, with an intrepidity that is amusing.— For instance, Charles X. is called the van-guard of the Bourlions, who entered France un known after an absence of thirty-six years, and in twenty-four hours raised an army of a million of men, and effected the restoration ! But by what means did he effect this ?—simply by his cockade and his face (sa cocarde et son visage). The person who has had the face to make this assertion must have extraordinary powers of face indeed. if the armies of confederated Europe had not already passed the Rhine and time Py renees, the escort of the Count d'Artois would have been very different indeed. It is surpris ing that the writer did not ascribe to him the credit of the battle of Waterloo. At the same One, In the midst of this vapid stuff, there ap pears to be a favourable fettling towards the new Monarch—and his public measures, as far as they have gone, which, however, are, as yet, very inconsiderable and indecisive, afford rather an auspicious promise. [THE TIMES.] :The French Papers of Tuesday, which arrived last night, are chiefly filled with accounts of the entry 'of Charles X. into Paris, and, of the splen did prOeession through that city to' Notre. Dame and his Palace. We have given in another co lumn as much of these statements and descrip tion as can be expected 'to excite any interest in the English reader. The Uonslitutionnel, in a litter dated from Missolonghi, gives a. biogra phical sketch of Prince Mavrocorelatos, whose name has become so celebrated in the annals of Greek independence. Ile is stated to - be a descendant of the Minister Mavrocordatos, Who attended the Congress of Carlowitz, and who received his title of Prince from the Christian Powers with whom he treated in that assembly. Aleitander Muvrocordatos, who now supports the cause of Greek freedom, is now only about 34 years of age, and is: described as a man of rare talents and great ,acquirements. When a youth he accompanied his uncle, Prince Caratza, to the province of Walachia, and was there em ployed in several posts of trust and danger.— When the standard of Greek independence was raised in 1811, he was in Italy, whence he has ieried to the aid of his countrymen and their Cause. Disembarking at Missolonghi, he instantly perceived the advantage of that position for the defence of Western Greece. After defending that plice with great credit to himself in 1822, he pro- Ceeded Peloponnesus ; but' seeing that he Could do nothing there, he returned to Etoliai and afterwards repaired to Snub to gain over the; Soullots to his cause. In this he succeeded.— Ileturning to Etolia, he established . the:Local Government of Vitestern Greece, which led to the formation of a Central Congress representing the Greek nation, of which lie was elected Pre sident. This Assembly adjusted the Government which at present prevails in Greece, so far as that 'country can lie saki to enjoy a Government. After occupying successively the posts of Presi•• dent of Congress and President of the Executive Council, he returned to Etolia, and threw himself into 11lissolonghi, where he displayed great ta lents in defending the place against a Turkish force. After refusing to accept for a second time the Presidency of the Executive Council, and visiting nydra to press the sailing of a squadron to the aid of Missolonghi, he returned again to that fortress, whose security at present depends upon his efforts. [MORNING POST 4 We have much pleasure in being able at last to communicate favourable intelligence from the coast of Guinea, where even before the arrival of reinforcements, the triumphs of the Ashantees have been arrested, and their audacity chastened by a signal defeat. This intelligence is contained in dispatches from Cape Coast Castle, dated the 12th and 18th of July, and brought yesterday to the Colonial Office by Colonel Sutherland, who commanded in the action. Colonel Suther land, who is now re-placed in Africa by Colonel Grant, came home in the Thetis, Capt. Sir J. Phillimore. On account of the absence of Earl Bathurst from town the dispatches were not opened, but it appears from the statements of private letters, that One principal battle took place on the 11th of July, when the Ashantees, head ed by their King and in number about 15,000, approached to attack the Castle. For the first time our troops were enabled to bring field-pieces against the enemy, who suffered terribly from the grape and canister shot poured upon them. During the action, the left wing of the Allied and British force wheeled round and burned two of their camps. The loss on our side was estimated at 500 killed and wounded, but that of the Ashantees was much greater, and their main body was in full retreat. On the 12th and 13th, skirmishes took place with some de tachmeots which they had left to cover their rear, in which they also experienced considerable loss. At the time when the Thetis sailed, the 22d of July, nothing further had heen heard or seen of them, and it began to be thought that they were on their way back to their own country. [yams!' raEss.] Dispatches were yesterday received at the Co lonial Office from Cape Coast Castle, dated the IL2th and 18th of July, announcing the highly gratifying intelligence that the Ashantees were signally defeated in a general action on the llth of J nly. Presuming on their success over the late Sir Chas. M'Carthy, they came down to the coast in great force,with the King at their head, avow edly to take the Castle, and utterly destroy the British power. Fifteen thousand of these savages are calculated to have taken part in the battle.' They were allowed to advance within the range of our field-pieces, when the artillery opened upon them, and occasioned great havoc and consterna tion. The grape and canister shot produced terrific effects, and finally a gallant charge of the British troops routed the enemy, who fled in every di rection. Our loss did not exceed 500 killed and wounded, principally Fantees. The battle was fought within three-quarters of a mile from.the shore. On the 1 2th and 13th some skirmishes took place with detachments of the enemy, in which they were again defeated with loss. One of the first results of our success was, the release of Mr. Williams, who had so long been detained a prisoner by the Ashantees. Lieut.-Colonel Sutherland, who commanded the British forces on the day of the victory, came home with the dispatches in the Thetis frigate. The charge had therefore devolved on Colonel Grant. The dispatches were instantly forwarded to Earl Ba thurst, who is at his seat in Gloucestershire. Our Private correspondent at Madrid gives us e some curious and important. explanations of the cause of the arrest of M. Cruz, the Minister of War. It appears that Cruz was secretly the abettor of the views of General Capape, who had attempted to effect an insurrection in Arragon. The plan was, to have excited the people to arms in that and the neighbouring provinces, and as soon as he had found himself at the head of a force sufficiently imposing, to have com pelled the King to make some modifications in his Government, the particular nature of which are not well known ; but, above all, that he should give orders for the evacuation of the Peninsula by the French troops. A great number of military, and several persons of dis tinction, were connected with this plot, of which Cruz was the principal agent. A quantity of im portant papers have been found upon his person, which it is feared will give rise to several arrests. Cruz is still kept an secret le plus rigoureux. The knowledge of this affair has produced a strong► sensation at the Tuileries. It is discouraging to the French Government to find that the Spanish Ministers themselves conspire to drive the French troops out of Spain. It is thought that the French Court will insist strenuously that Ferdi nand should cause this affair to he fully investi gated, and that those who may be found involved in it should meet with exemplary punishment.--- (Ibid.) p. , 1 ENV T M 11.1 Our readers will recollect that six men were executed in the county of Kilkenny, a few weeks since, for the murder of Mr. Marum, and that to the last moment five of them protested their in nocence. We have seen letters from that part of the county in which Mr. Marum resided, which speak of a frightful system of intimidation which prevails there. It will also be remembered that 'Mr. Mann), jun. was with his father when he was attacked by the murderous miscreants, and that he himself narrowly escaped with life, being severely wounded ; and that he gave evidence on the trials of.. the 'perions'convict ed of the slaughter of his father. He is in c on sequence daily threatened with a similar fate by a t ionytnnuttleoo4:: : ,and notices; and so we nipotent is aik or ii!ril?!' in his neighbour: hood, that the crops on his lanai are still stand ing, and of course running CO waste, as no' limn will venture to assist in saving them, the most dreadful denunciations having been published against any prson who shall assist in such a work. The evidence of the guilt of the six men exe cuted was clear and conclusive ; yet a firm belief of the innocence of five of them is said to exist amongst the whole of the peasantry of the country. THE SHERIFFS' DINNER. Yesterday the Sheriffs Elect, Aldermen KEY and BItOWNE, supported the usual routine of civic hospitality, by their inauguration dinner at the Albion Tavern. The com pany, which was numerous, and chiefly composed of members of the Corporation of London, assembled at six o'clock. The Loan Mayon presided, supported by the late and present Sheriffs, by Mr. Wilson, M.P., Mr. S. C. Whitbread, M.P., Mr. Butterworth, M.P., &c. &c. After the cloth was remov ed, the usual toasts of the King, and the other illustrious mem bers of the Royal Family, were given in succession with three times three. Messrs. Taylor, Leete, Pyne, Evans, and Master Smith, gave the vocal accompaniments throughout the evening with suitable effect. Mr. Sheriff BitowicE said that he had the Lord Mayor's permission to propose a toast. They had already paid a just and loyal compliment to the Royal Family, and the Army and Navy. He hoped lie might be permitted now to propose the health of their worthy Chief Magistrate, who had discharged his public duties with exemplary fidelity, and who had, as a man, certainly a claim for his (the Sheriffs') private re gard. They had often differed in public ' but the candour which accompanied the animadversion had stripped it of its appearance of asperity..--(Applause.)--Ilis worthy friend had never carried Isis political resentment beyond the threshold of the Court. Ile hoped the company would allow him to drink, with three times three, the health of the Lord Mayor. (Applause.) Ills Lordship's health was drank with three times three. The Loan MA oft, in returning thanks for the honour bad done him, said that he felt he had a task t w ii hd i c c h al t t he co company er y form in the discharge of his public duty. His constituents had known him before he was honoured with his present office, and if he had redeemed the confidence they had reposed in him, he was satisfied that he had performed his duty. It was not always, according to the poet, that a man could " command success," neither was it always sure that he could " deserve it." He, however, had, both yesterday at the Common Hall, and on this day, the satisfaction of knowing that there were those who thought he had done his duty. He was glad of the cordial support of his worthy friend who had proposed his health. They had before, and might again differ upon political subjects ; but he trusted there would be no loss of friendship between them. He had on one or two occasions spoken with something like asperity towards his worthy friend, but a few moments had elapsed before he felt it necessary to extend to him his hand, and wish to forget these public collisions. —.(Applause.)—lf these differences were not tolerated—nay., justified—there would be an end to the freedom of public dis cussion in this country, the very essence of which was the liberty of thinking and expressing opinions in a fearless manner.— (Applause.)—He had already served the different gradations of civic office, and hoped as long as health permitted, that his fellow citizens would always find him ready to be their zealous and devottd servant. The judicial duties of the stations through which he had passed were arduous, not admitting of the absence of one day's attendance throughout the year. The conscien tiousness, however, of having acted to the best of his judgment, consoled bins for every other consideration which ill-health and the loss of time, in a personal sense, were calculated to excite. Ile concluded by cordially thanking the company for the honour which they had done Loud applause.) The Loan MAYOa then proposed the healths of the new Sheriffs, with some prefatory observations complimentary to those gentlemen. Mr. Sheriff linowNE, in returning thanks, took a review of the duties of his office, which lie promised to discharge with conscientious fidelity. lie adverted to the complicated nature of the duties of the shrievalty, and pledged himself to give to them his utmost attention. These duties were arduous from their judicial and executive nature, and he fondly hoped that they would find no exertion of his spared to give proper effect to their performance. He had the satisfaction of knowing his worthy colleague, and was assured of his valuable co-operation. —(Applause.) Mr. Sheriff KEY, in returning thanks, declared that he en otakaenndofmtohset d a u n t s i l e , s ic s i ) o f a tl s ie t i t r m s i tic n e t . a t ll e whichba th e t e hla'ad tirely coincided with his worthy colleague in th e v i e w which i v i o e ur b a at b entered into their arduous office, and hoped that at the eri that atee and r e re ceive d . con clusion of their official duty, th e y would have to look back with of tlesery w h i l i g ici a i continuan c etiiey h ad il own courtesy complaisance at their past cond uct, and to a just expectation of their fellow citizens (eed . ebegged to thank the company for their plause.) The Loup MaYott proposed " the health of the Lord Mayor elect," to whom he addressed a suitable Mr. Alderman GARRATT said, obedience that in b • o ence to the de sire of his fellow-citizens, he bad within a fe wyears the bosom of priv a t e life to un d erta k e the duties of a civic i sta tion. All lie could say was, that l ie felt the importan c e oftlt trust reposed in bins, and could conscientiously promise that no efforts of his would be wantin g to , deserve the continued ‘ con ddeoce of his fellow-citizens, i n the new and more to II honourable situation which they had now confides! 1 • e could only reiterate to them the assurance of his abated desire to perform the duties of time office I' h w they had so lately intrusted to him, in such a manner as was calculated to preserve the good opinion of hi s fr i ends and his fellow-citi zens ut large--(Applause.) The Loan MAYOR then proposed the health of the new " Cursitor Baron" (Henry Bankes, Esq., 311. p.) The CußsmTou Ilairox, in returning thanks, declared that he considered that to he one of th e h ig h est of hie official pri vileges, which gave him an annual opportunity of meeting the official personages of the Corporation of the City of Lon don.—(Applause.) The Lonn Mavort next proposed the health of the " Al dermen above the chair ;" and Mr. Alderman ANSLEY re turned thanks. His LORDSHIP next proposed the healths of the " Alder men below the chair." Mr. Alderman VENADLES returned thanks. The Loan Ala von proposed the health of the Common Serjeant, (Thomas Denman, Esq. ALP.), upon whose judicial conduct be pronounced a warm eulogy. The Co stmoN SERJEANT, in returning thanks, begged to disclaim the merits attributed to him by the cordiality of friendship with which he was honoured by the Lord Mayor. He was, however, deeply sensible of the flattering mark of re spect which echoed these sentiments of friendship from so large a portion of his fellow-citizens, for such he was entitled to dill them.—(Applause.)—fle still must be permitted to feel that he owed something of these cordial and gratifying testi. menials, not alone to the private friendship of the worthy Chief Magistrate, but to the larger and equally cordial coincidence of their political sentiments.—(Applause.)—lt was not, he hoped too much for men who had long embraced these sentiments, now to advert to them with something like self-approbation, when they found those who had been their political opponents claiming credit and popularity from pursuing the steps of reduction and economy which they had so long recommended.—( Applause.) With reference to the civic festivals—of which the present was so complete an example—he had only to express his cordial sa tisfaction at having the honour of being present at their annual occiurence. They affhrtled the people an opportunity of partici pating in the practical enjoyment of their privileg . es—of placing in the hands in which they lik e d th e local power of their Corpora tion. The splendour and munificence of the civic festival:; must always yield to the moral influence of their practical effect. They gave the people the opportunity of placing in a prominent situa tionfor the gene ral the objects of their choice; and while the city of London liberties of the people at large.—(A maintained its libertiem, there was some security self truly, pplause.)—lie felt him fortunate in having been the object of their choice in the situation in which they had placed him ; and he hoped, that • it' since his possession of office in the Corporation he had ac. (tithed sonic additional c l a im to the support of his friends, he had also sho wn ' t h ose who h a d b een originally his opponents from the b est motives of partiality to others, that he had laid some claim for their confidence, from the manner in which he had discharged theduties intrusted to him.—(Applause.) The LORD MAYOR next proposed the healthy of the late Sheriffs. NViivrAxEn, in returning thanks, expressed the great satisfaction whi c h h e f e l t nt t hi s mar k o f the approbation. of his fel.low7citizens. Sir PETER LstrniE said, that in retiring with his worthy colleague who had just spoken from the shrievalty, he felt with Lint the gratitude which !wowed his fellow-citizens for the con tinuance of their cordial support. Having discharged his al dal duty, he hoped with propriety, and was flattered by now finding with thanks, he had now to say, that in a few days he would be many h undred leagues distance from them ; the re membrance of the kindness would still remain, and he could exclaim, in the lanpage of the poet— W he re'et I go, whatever realms to see, "M y heart untravelled fondly turns to thee. (Applause.) The usual civic toasts followed, and the company sat until a late hour in the enjoyment of a festival for which every thing was abundantly provided. THE NABIJOS. ( From the Missouri Intelligeneer. Between the Spanish settlements of New Mexico and the Pacific Ocean, reside a nation of Indians, called the Nabijos, whose ingenuity and improvements reflect honour upon the un civilized state. Their skill in manufacturing, and their excellence in some of the useful and ornamental arts, shew a decided superiority of genius over all the other tribes of the western Continent; even over those whose contiguity to civilization has afforded them the benefits of its example and instruction. That they are self taught there is no doubt ; and although our in formation is deficient relative to their origin, cus toms, manners, and municipal regulations, per haps it may enable us to state some facts con cerning them interesting to our readers, and which may lead to more satisfactory intelligence. It is believed by the Spaniards that they are a remanent of the ancient Mexican nation, under the Government of the Emperor Mon, tezuma, who fled from their happy vales, beau tiful lakes, and splendid towns, preferring to scent the fragrance of liberty, and taste the sweets of domestic repose, in a distant wilderness, rather than submit to the cruelties of Cortes. To noble minds, rendered indignant by multiplied and provoked wrongs, such a course would have been , perfectly natural, But circumstances induce us to believe that the supposition is incorrect. The barbarous disposition and destroying policy of a heartless invader, in a few years laid in ruins that powerful and well regulated empire, and swept from the face of the earth its numerous inhabitants, who were simple, happy, and polished in a state of nature. The miserable remains amalgamated with their conquerors ; and their national charac ter, peculiarly of customs, and pride of independ ence, sunk together into a common grave. It is a more reconcileable supposition that the Nabijos were originally a different nation, and one whose customs have never been altered, and whose arts and mode of living have never been adulterated by an intercourse with civilized society. Their power and bravery are proverbial among the Spa niards, who have experienced more molestation and injury from them than from all other Indiani; in their vicinity. They once sent to Santa Fe a large quantity of silver bullion to be moulded into dollars, which the Spaniards perfidiously con verted to their own use. The Spaniardsalso prohi bited the cultivation and manufacture of tobacco among them, with a view to necestitate them to purchase their own, for which they demanded an extravagant price. These, together with the other causes of dissatisfaction, have, for many years occasioned mutual hostilities, in which they usually triumphed over the pusillanimity of the Spaniards, and made a large proportion of their sheep and mules the spoils of war. A young gentle man, now in this town, during the last summer, accompanied a strong military expedition against them, which defeated them, and obliged them to sue for peace. They killed a Chief who wore shoes, fine woollen stockings, small clothes con nected at the sides by silver buttons instead of a seam, a hunting shirt, and a scarlet cloth cai), , then fol d sbutton s. of which i also n secured t silver b adopt 'These peo ple wee do not the usual Indian manner of living in villages, but are a nation of comfortable and independent farmers. Their houses are built of stone, some one, and others two stories high. They have fine flocks of sheep, abundance of mules, and herds of cattle of a superior kind. They culti vate corn, tobacco, and cotton, which they ma nufatured into cloth. They have gardens, in which they raise several kinds of esculent vege tables, and have peach orchards, the fruit of which resembles our apricots. Several of their woollen manufactures equal the quality of ours. W e h ave seen a coverlet, made by them, the tex ture of which was excellent, the figures inge nious, and the colours permanent and brilliant. Our townsmen, Mr. Hood, has taken it to Phila delphia for the purpose of sending it to a friend in Europe. The Spaniards imitate the manufac ture of this article, but their imitations are far in ferior to the original. They make baskets and small dishes of osiers, so completely worked us to hold water without the least leekage. The twigs before being wrought, are variously colour ed, and so skilfully put together, that the finished vessel presents different figures. Their bridles are made of tanned leather, and often embellished with silver ornaments. Theydress,almost wholly, in their own fabrics. The men dress in small clothes sometimes of deer skins, tanned and handsomely coloured. The women wear a loose black robe, ornamented around the bottom with a red border, which is sometienes figured ; and, when not engaged, they use a large shawl of the same colour and material. Their different modes of putting up the hair, shew whether they are single, lately married, or matrons. The weapons of this interesting nation are the lance, and the bow and arrow, which they use with dexterity. These advantages and improvements among the uncivilized, if they may he so called, will no doubt astonish many ; but the character of those who have given us the information are so far above suspicion, that we should feel little reluctance in vouching for the truth of every fact. But there need but little surprise when we reflect upon the characters and condition of the natives of that country when the Europeans first visited them. They were well versed in the art of painting, sculpture, and architecture. Their gardens were large and well filled with medical and flower ing plants, and esculent roots. The city of Mexico was, at that time, more splendid and po pulous than any other in the world. Its popu lation was more than 400,000, its houses were built of rock, and many of them three stories high. Its streets were wide, strait and regularly laid off. They were furnished with water by canals, and the houses were also furnished by aqueducts. One of the Emperor's palaces could conveniently accomodate 500 persons. Its wall s were built of Jaspar, of various colours, and beautifully and its rooms were orna nand feathered tapes try, richly painted. "heir works of art were nu t ( fu nu merous, and executed with the m os t c o n summate ) 1 ; i col i t i o i s u he hangings,t' skill ; and their public edifices , and other works , for public accommodation, were grand and stu pendous monuments of human ingenuity. When these things are considered, it cannot be thought very strange that the Nabijos, inhabitants of the same country should have attained to the im• provements and degree of civilization we have described. CHILD-S PEALING. About three weeks ago, James Thorpe, a fine boy, nearly five years old, son to Mr. Thomas Thorpe, ship-carpenter, of Blackwell, suddenly disappeared from heme. As the boy had been in habit of following his father to the riverside; it was at first apprehended that he had fallen into the water and perished ; search was made, but no tidings could be had of the poor boy for two days, when the child's mother happening to men tion the circumstance at a neighbouring public. house, the bar-maid stated that she had seen young Thorpe on the evening of his 'sap' pearance, in company with a strang e woman, and an itinerant tinker, who we re subse quently traced to London, having taken a boat for the 'rower-stairs, at Bla The ckwell. and brought the boy back with them. poor father, by dint of inquiry, and the offer of a con' siderable reward, at length got some int elli g ence. of the route they had taken, which was towar ds Islington, and at a house much frequented IT those travelling gentry, he obtained f ur ther in d telligence of the man and woman as described bi him, but none of the boy. The woman was said to have quarrelled witer companin, who wa s thee. out, disposing of h i s h merchanize, o and the former had, in the interim, carried away the boy some where towards town. However, as the tin ke t had left a donky in the field, It he would return to take it away, ttod. Thorpe was advised to wait his arrival,es c lose most probable he might be compelled to disclose m ade to the woman's haunts, or at all events be assist in the recovery of the child.
