LA VERITE. Sur Les Cent Jours ; compiled principally from a Report upon the projected Regeneration of the .Roman Empire. By a Citizen of Corsica. We resume our notice of this work. The ex tracts we made from the advertisement which pre cedes it were large, because we were anxious that our readers sould judge for themselves how far the statements it contained were entitled to credit,—a circumstance, the-more necesssary when it is considered, that the single fact here detailed is one of no moment, and only curious and inte testing in so far as it may be strictly true. The regeneration of the Roman Empire was indeed a work worthy of the •hands to which it was entrusted and there can belittle doubt hut, had that Great Personage been. faithful to the contrivers of this plot, the regeneration of Italy had by this time .been effected. The result of the war which consigned the Em peror NAPOLEON to the Island of Elba, was re garded as a circnmstance favourable to the fore .going conspiracy, because it was plain that no thing could be done in it,unless supported by a pow• • erful army, and that areiy was Assured by a power• ful name. Such were the feelings which animated the members of the Council who designed this enterprise, and which we are told consisted of • two Corsicans, two Genoese, two Piedmontese, two Italians, and four others of the States of Rome and the Two Sicilies. This, " Small number remained to guard the sacred fire. Their in tendons were pure, their character undoubted, their intelligence incontestible. But there was none among them who could head the enterprise. None of them had a name sufficiently imposing to bind together the nation and the army, to speak to the imagination of the one, and guarantee victory to the other ; and to restrain party spirit. Salicete was dead, and this Salicete, after Napoleon, possessed a head and a character as strong and as powerful as any in Europe." This SALICETI was Minister of Police at Na ples, and was poisoned in December 1809, by one MAGIIELLA, a Prefect of Police, and his enemy. The qualities thus essential to the sun cess of their plans, and which the whole of the members of the Council wanted united in NA POLEON, and thus it happened that he was se lected as the leading instrument through whom • the restoration of the Roman -.Empire was to be effected. Accordingly, upon consideration, a messenger, (one of their own number,) was dis patched to Elba, -charged . with a letter to the Emperor, relating their wishes, and to it was joined the Constitution, which .he was required to give to the Italian Empire, and another docu ment, detailing the means by which the object was to be obtained, but which /as/ was submitted for NAPOLEON'S consideration, and to be altered as be might see proper. This letter and the Constitution appears to us • the most interesting documents the work con• tains. The purest spirit of, patriotism is dis played throughout the former, and the latter -was in every way calculated to ensure the hap piness and prosperity of the; Mo narchy, tv holm - affairs should be adminlitered.aecording to its principles. If we have any fault to find with the letter, it is that it is somewhat bombastical, and contains allusions not altogether agreeable to the good sense and proper feelings of the Eng lish people, as the following little extract will • shew " A great lever is necessary : your arm is alone powerful enough to seize h. Modern Archimedes, rested upon the rock of your exile, enlightened by your reverses, animated by the recollections of your triuttrlts; you will raise the Capitol ; bit there, Sire, you must stop. The sternal reposed when he had treated the Universe." What affinity there could be between the crea . 'tics' of the world and the regeneration of Italy, none but Italians could see ; and, doubtless, had it suited the EMPEROR. 111 after periods, he would have had as much difficulty in understanding it then as we have now. The Constitution was the representative system, and limited the extent of the empire to the continent of Italy. BUONA PARTE was to be the first Emperor, and after him his descendants. In default of his issue then the Crown was to go to the Prince EUGENE BEAU HAtt.Nats. The Senate was to be nominated by the Crown, and was to consist of two hun dred members, each of the age of 30, 00 d enjoying a fortune of 30,000 francs annually in land. The Chamber of Representatives was to be corn posed of 3 Members for every 100,000 souls in the empire, and who were also to enjoy a certain -income. These were the leading features of the Con stitution. According to the other document, • the means of effecting the object of this enter prise were such as almost to ensure success, and nothing, it appears, but the defection of the chief , personage defeated its accomplishment. The Emesnou accepted the , office it was desired to impose upon him, he also accepted the consti tution which was otTered to him, and it seems, therefore, strange, that he should abandon his party so entirely, and that so speedily after his disembarkation on the Italian shores. Whe ther the restraints the Constitution would have placed upon him as a Roman 'Emperor operated so as to take away the least desire to -wear an Imperi;:l diadem upon such con. sditions, or whether the more absolute power of a French Emperor and the delights of Paris, and the glory of a military King, had more charms for him, it is impossible to say ; certain it k, however, the warm reception he met with front the French troops seduced him from his al legiance to his party, and caused him to turn his steps towards Paris rather than the seat of the,Popish power, imperial Rome. Thus the very circumstance upon which the conspirators Lad calculated to ensure success and fulfil their hopes of enfranchisement, served as the -cause of their dcfeat, and the total overthrow o f -their otherwise t,ell-devked and patriotic plans, —so short-sighted are mortal men.

'lowing persons were shearing on a small farm in the parish of Govan :—Marion Easton, aged 91 ; Betty Campbell, 86; Ann Brown, 82 ; William Gardner, 87—united ages, 346 ; average, 86h.

The Captain Pacha has not yet quitted his sta tion near Cape Papas. The Greek fleet, which was lately reported to have arrived at Cape Tor nesi, has, however, returned into the Gulf of Ar cadia, and cruises along the western toast of the south ,part of the Morea. It was lately seen at Cape Konello. It. was expected that this fleet would raise the blockade of Missolooghi ; and it seems inconceivable why it does not do this, if it is sufficiently strong. But it is probable that it is not numerous enough, for it is known- that Miaulis is gone in pursuit of Husseiri Bey, with the greater part of his forces, for the purpose of hindering him from bringing fresh troops from Alexandria and Candiv, to the Morea. It is affirmed that six thousand Egyptians who were to be embarked were at Alexandria, though the plague still prevails there. The troops which the Capitan Pacha embarked at Patras have marched with Jussuf Pacha, and 2,000 men of the garrison, to march along the coast of the Gulf of Lepanto. We learn that Jussuf has arrived at Ilylo Castron, at a short distance from Corinth, and that his intention is to secure a communication through the isthmus with the united army of Thessaly and Negro pont, and bring into the Peloponnesus ; but Goura has succeeded in repulsing that army, and will advance against Jussuf, who is said to have lately resolved to march by way of Argos to Tripolizza to join Ibrahim Pacha.— This Pacha is reported to have lately had several conferences with Colocotroni, with the addition that they were on the point of concluding a convention, but it was not known what was the tenor or the conditions. According to some accounts, Colodotroni is willing to submit to the Pacha of Egypt ; according to others, Ibrahim has proposed to evacuate the Morea,and return to Candia, engaging not to move any more against the Greeks. The number of English ships of war in the port of Napoli has lately been increased. Captain Hamilton, who is said to have lately received new instructions from England, appears to be on very good terms with the Greek Government. Since writing the above, we have seen a letter from Ragusa, which states that Jussuf Pacha had entered Corinth, and had summoned the Citadel to surrender, but the latter having refused all his proposals, the Turks, who were informed of the approach of a Greek corps, set fire to the town, and fell back towards Vostizza ; they had not been able to reach Argos. FRONTIERS OF ITALY, Alla. 20. We are still without any news from the Morea that can be depended upon ; the latest came to us by way of Zante and Corfu, but at the be ginning of August nothing positive was known even there of the movements of Ibrahim and Co locotroni, and from Napoli di Romania there were no accounts. It is true there was no want of reports, and that of Ibrahim having been wounded was so general that it obtains some credit. It appears also, that there have been several sanguinary combats between the two armies or corps, in which the Egyptian and Asiatic troops, whose communications are really cut off, have constantly been the aggressors, but have been repulsed with loss. The Arnauts last landed at Navarino are stated to have suffered very severely on their way to Tripolizza,,having been at one time completely surrounded, and obliged to cut their way through the Greek corps that opposed them, in which they succeeded, it is trite, but with very great loss, and at the ex pence of ail their artillery, baggage, Sze. These are the accounts current in Corfu and Zante, but still they want further confirmation. As for the Egyptian fleet that has returned to Alexandria, it is uncertain whether Mimilis has been able to come up with it ; but there nre some reports of an engagement in favour of the Greeks. Misso loughi has been hard pressed lately, but defended itself vigorously, and had repulsed all the attacks made on it. But it cannot hold out, unless the blockade by sea is raised. Redschid Pacha has received reinforcements, but will not undertake any thing against the Peloponnesus till he has taken Missolonghi. llis detached- -corps are in Livadia, and make excursions beyond Sa lona. Goura is obliged to confine himself to 38- curing all the approaches to the isthmus of Co rinth. The state of things there is not very fa vourable to the Greeks, though the Tessalian corps had lately received a check. EXECUTION OF THE EMPECINADO.-The Ma drid Gazette announces the tragical end of this patriot. The following account of his last mo ments is furnished by an inhabitant of Rueda, where the unfortunate General was hanged. In his will the Empecinado bequeathed four pieces of cloth, which belonged to him, and were in the possession of a friend, for the use of the Royalist volunteers of Rueda, from whom he had suffered such horrible treatment. When he came out of the prison to undergo his punishment, he became violent with rage on finding that it was intended to put him upon as ass. He refused, and went to the place of execution on foot with great firmness. When he had reached the foot of the‘gallows, he suddenly made so great an effort that he burst the cords by which his arms were confined. He then attempted to rush through the line of soldiers who surrounded him,and no doubt he would have escaped if he had been armed ; but as it was, he was attacked and beaten down with blows. A rope was then passed round his neck, and the hangman, who was upon the gallows, leaped upon him, and with the assistance of some bystanders put him to death. As this wretch was returning to Valladolid, after the execution, he was wel comed in several villages with the rin g in g of the l bells.—(Courier Francais.) A Mr. KING, at Richmond, in Surrey, went to church last Sunday, came home well, and while eating his dinner, fell down and expired ; he has ieft a wife and two children. What is most singular, his wife's first husband, a Mr. Mills, late one of the Bank clerks, choaked him self with a piece of beef at dinner, and died about three years ago. THE COSSACS. (From the Asiatic Journal.) The origin and early history of this remark able race of people, like that of most other na tions, are enveloped in total darkness. Ka ramsin (in his History of the Russian Empire) endeavours to throw some light on this subject ; and as this author's great - work is but little known in England, we shall extract the whole of his observations : cc We observe that the annals of the times of Wassily the Dark, in the year 1444, mention the Rjasan Cossacs, a peculiar kind of light troops, who have rendered themselves so famous in mo dern times. Thus we find that the Cossacs were not exclusively in the Ukraine, where their name occurs in history about the year 1507 ; but it is probable that their name is older in Russia than Batu's irruption (1241-2), and belonged to the Torks or Berendeji, who dwelt on the banks of the Dnieper, below Kiev. There we also find the habitations of the Cossacs of Little Russia. The 'Forks and Beredeji were called Cher kessi ; so were the Cossacs. If we call to mind the Cassogi, who, according to our annals, dwelt between the Caspian and Black Seas, if will naturally bring as to the Kas sachie, placed in that country by the Emperor Porphyrogenita. The Ossets Still call the Cher kessi, Kassachs : all which circumstances lead us to conclude, that the Torks and Berendeji, who called themselves Cherkessi, were also called Cossacs; that some of them lived, protected by their rocks, reeds, and marches, on the islands of the Dnieper, independent of the yoke of both Tartars and Lithuanians; that many Russians, flying from their oppressors, joined them there, and, together, formed the nation of the Cossacs, which the more readily became Russian, as their forefathers, who had lived in the territory of Kiev since the tenth century, had themselves nearly become Russians. Increasing in num bers, and nourishing a spirit of fraternity and love of independence, they formed a republic of Christian warriors in the southern parts of the Dnieper, where they built villages and towns in a country laid waste by the Tartars, and became the defenders of Lithuania against the Crimeans and Turks. For these services they obtained many privileges and immunities by Sigismund 1., who also granted them lands above the falls of the Dnieper, where . they gave their name to the town of Cherkassy. They divided themselves into hundreds and regiments, whose Chiefs, or Hetmans, obtained from the Polish King, Ste phen Bathory, as a mark of particular esteem, a royal standard, a horse's tail, a Commander's staff and seal. It was these warriors, burning for liberty and the Greek church, who, during the first half of the 17th century, freed little Russia from its foreign oppressors, and restored the province to its lawful sovereigns. The Cossacs called Saporoni (dwelling below the waterfalls) formed a part of those of Little Russia ; their ssjetsha (mud forts) were originally the rendezvous of unmarried Cossacs, who had no other trade but war and plunder ; but subsequently they settled in them. It was probably from the example of the Ukraine Cossacs, who were constantly armed and prepared to receive the enemy, that the northern cities caught the idea of forming a simi lar militia. The territory of Rjassan, which was most exposed to the attacks of the nomade rob. hers, wanted this kind of defenders more than any other ; and the immunities offered, and the prospect of booty induced many young men without property to enlist themselves as Cossacs. In the history of subsequent periods, we Lind horde-Cossacs s Assovian, and Nogaian Cossacs; the name at that time implied volunteers, par tisans, or adventurers, hut not robbers, as some pretend, referring us to the sense which the word beau's in the Turkish. language. It cannot be a term of insult—since warriors, who died for their liberty, country, and religion, called them selves thereby." By this short sketch, it appears evident that the Cossacs have not only originated in differen tribes, but that many of them are a mixture o different race, of which the real Russians form no small proportion ; a supposition rendered the more probable from their great conformity with that nation in features, language, religion, and habits. But still there is a difference in their capacities and feelings, which is perhaps snore owing to the peculiar mode of life they have been pursuing for several centuries past, than to a na tural difference of disposition. They are by far more active, intelligent, and enterprising than the other Russians in private life, as much as in war ; and although fierce towards an enemy, they are of a gentle and tractable disposition, and candid, upright, and hospitable to the stranger who so journs in their land. What distinguishes them above all from the rest of their countrymen, is their spirit of independence and love of liberty. They have proved of incalculable service to the Russian Government, not only in actual warfare, but also in guarding its extensive fron tiers, in the south and east, against the predatory tribes which hover around them—in 'protect lag mercantile caravans and political missions over Mount Caucasus, and through the. steppes of the Kirghisin conveying government orders, escorting prisoners, &c. ; their activity and strength, courage, vigilance, and fidelity being proof against the severest trials. Armed with • his pistols and lance, and seated on a pony as nimble and as indefatigable as himself, the Cos sac will travel for hundreds of miles with scanty food, and without any other rest than a few short snatches of sleep taken on the hard ground, and under the canopy of heaven, while his faithful animal is grazing near him ; and never be satisfied till his commission, whether it. be the simple con veyance of a letter, or the intercepting of a con voy, be fulfilled. There is still another circumsta nce in which they have been very useful to R ussia, and under which they are least known in th is country, viz. the monarchy itself (during the 17th century), as discoverers. The vast countries of Northern Asia, situated between the Ural mountains and the Eastern Ocean, the Arctic Sea and the river Amoor, now known by the general name of Si beria, were all discovere d and rendered tributary - to Russia by Cossacs; and that at a period ; when struggling against the imbecility of its rulers and ' the rude attacks of foreign invaders, was on the point of being dissolved. A few of these adven turers, encouraged by some Russian merchants, and followed b? some hundreds of vagabonds from all parts of the country, conquered the country as far as Tobolsk, before they received any aid from government. A few hundred of them even effected a settlement on the banks of the Amoor, bearding the power of thousands of Chinese and Tartars, and would perhaps have ex tended their conquests far into Mongolia, had they been properly assisted. In short, we may say—as Providence bestows on every country that which its climate and situation seem most to require, so it gave to Russia her Cossacs, with out whom she would have remained a prey to the Tartars, and could even now scarcely zubsist as an empire.
