LAmongst the Merchants and the "ankers there is an apparent congeniality of feel ing - -the Bank of England might then discount ad libitum as in 1797 ! We have great satisfaction in announcing that the failure of Messrs. SELBY and OLIPHANT, men tioned in our Paper of last night, has its origin "°-4Y In temporary causes, produced by the pre sent uuparalelled demand for money, and can "ever i n any degree taint the credit of this respectable firm. We have been informed, upon ter Y good authority, that this untoward event w°4l -d• not have happened if their securities, (se curities entitled to the very first credit) could have been made available to their imme diate demands, or even if their outstanding debts could have been collected. Under these circumstances, every prospect is held out, that in winding up the accounts, not only every c laim will be satisfied to the full, but a very l arge surplus remain. This is some consolation, under a circumstance which, however afflicting, "n never cast the smallest reflexion on the credit and. respectability of these Gentlemen. The French Papers of Tuesday were received this day, and bring us the subjoined intelligence. It has not, however, any particular interest.

On the 3d of this month Ibrahim Paella left Mistra for Tri- Polizza, when he fell in with 2,000 Greeks, under the corn "nd of Nieetas, who were guarding the defiles. The attack the Greeks was firm and impetuous. The Egyptians had men killed, with a great number of wounded ; most !"`, to enemy' s p r o v i s i o n s fell into the hands of the Greeks.— , Ivo hundred women and children were delivered from the lands of Ibrahim I'acha, who was going to send them into 1, et On the 220 ult. arrived here Generals Colocotroni and teetas.

During the night of the 28th November a sanguinary scene took place in this town, which would have been nothing extra ordinary, if the public spirit had not been lately excited by the executions of some Carbonari, and with which this event was connected. The Chevalier Sampieri, President of the District of the Bridge of St. Ange, hearing the cries of two women who r'tre insulted in the street, went out to protect them. In his ef cra'an their behalf, he received several wounds with a knife, 'which are not serious ; and, by the reports of the Police, it now appears they were directed by party spirit. VIENNA, DEC. 2. The A rc hd u k e P a l a ti n , of Hungary, has passed two days in this capital. He has had several long interviews with the Em peror, and returned to Presburg on the 2 8 th November , on which day there was an extraordinary sitting of the Diet. The Archduke was present and rendered an account of his mission, and the answer which he brought from the Emperor has given entire satisfaction. We are assured his Majesty has modified his first determiaation in some particulars. STOCKHOLM, Nov. 25. The fire which broke out at the Little Theatre was extended the Theatre Dramatique, situated below the bridge in front of the palace. This building has been reduced to ashes, and although it was full at the_ time the fire broke out only three persons were killed. CONSTANTINOPLr, Nov. 11.

AIADRIDDEC. 2. It is certain that the Corps Diplornatique continue their notes to our Minister. The English Ambassador holds the helm of affairs, and draws all other Powers in his wake : he endeavours to obtain the recognition of the Independence of the Americas, but Ferdinand .will not hear. of it. The Frankfinl Papers to the gth December, and the All,remeine Zeitung, to the Bth De cember, received this day, have brought -us accounts from G reece, and further intelli gence of the Turco-Egyptian fleet.—The.ac counts given from tho Allgelpeine Ze . itung and the Trieste Observer inform us of its arrival at the port of Navarino, the landing of a portion of the troops, and the sinking of oue of the steam vessels which . accompanied the fleet from Alexandria. These forces were expected to act against Mis solonghi or Patras, a-fortresi on the shores of the Gulf of Lepanto, and nearly opposite to iNiis solonghi. • Both in these Papers and in our extracts from the French Journals will be found a short account, of the effect produced by the English declara tion of Neutrality, and the favourable im pressico made on the minds of the Mem bers or the Turkish Administration by this art of justice and wisdom on the part of the British Government. Thus far the cause of the Greeks seems in a desperate condition, and entirely lost, un l ess th e seasonable arrival of another portion of .the Loan from England can be supposed to stimulate their exertions, and urge them to the grand and simultaneous effort to overthrow the victor, who came to oppress and enslave them. For our part, we cannot but entertain great fears, since laitAllim's army has been so greatly reinforced by the arrival of the long expected succours, and the triumphant course he I has hitherto pursued. The following areex tracts : (From the Frankfbrt Papers, Dec. 9.) ALEXANDRIA, OCT. 18. Yesterday morning the Capitan Pacha weighed anchor, and all the transports sailed to-day. As tar as we can learn the fleet consists of 14 frigates, 14 corvettes, 42 brigs, 10 tire-ships, 20 armed Turkish transports. 28 European brigs, and the Lon don Engineer steam-boat. Another built here sprang a leak, as it was leaving the . port. The troops are MOO infantry, disciplined in the European manner, and 1,000 cavalry. The total expence of the expedition is estimated at 50 millions of piastres, or the value of 100,000 bales of cotton. In this sum arc included the •arrears of the pay of the Turkish fleet, The provisions and repairs, the supplies for the Mores, the subsidies in money, the presents, &c. The Capitan Paella receives 100,000 piastres. SMYRNA., Nov. 3.—(From the Oriental Spirtator.) The Sirens and Galathee frigates, with several other French vessels, have just arrived at Smyrna. Rear-Admiral Rielly has been about three months cruising in the Archipelago. Various goods, of which French vesseli had been plundered, have been restored through his exertions, and he has also exacted an in demnity for other acts of piracy committed on the coasts of Syria and Egypt. The naval officers all agree that piracy has become so general anti so absolutely necessary among the Greeks, that it is impossible to put a stop to it by ordinary means. In fact, it is not easy to imagine the depredations that may be committed by thousands of sailors who will not take any part in the present struggle, except to pillage, when they are dispersed in an Archipelago with every corner of whioh they are acquainted. Measures of repression may be exercised, upon one or two of them; but what will be the result ? Revenge will impel these banditti beyond all bounds, and they will massacre the unfortunate crews after they have plundered them. (From the Allgcmcine Zeitiong, Der. 8.) COXSTANTINOPIA, gov. 7 (By WAY OF BUCIIAREST.) On the 3d of this month news was received here of the re newed declaration of neutrality published in London by the Bri tish Government, And of the consequent stopping of the much talked of expedition of Lord Cochrane, which had excited such extraordinary fears here. The news ran like wildfire through the quarter of the Franks, and gave the greatest pleasure to the Turkish Ministers. Mr. Stratford Canning, whom we expect as British Ambassador, will open an easy way to his negocia tions with the Porte, by the communication of so decisive a declaration, in consequence of which the cause of, the Greeks is here considered as desperate. CON STAN Timort.E, Nov. 18...( By Express.) Since news has been received here that the Ottoman fleet from Alexandria has reached the coast of the Iliorea without any opposition from the Greeks, and landed its troops at Na varin on the sth November, it is generally believed here that Ibrahim Paella will make a new and serious attack on Napoli di Romania. It is said that part of eie expedition will be em. ployed against Illissolonghi. We expect Sir. Canning very shortly, as he was to embark at Corfu on board the Cambrian frigate. TRIESTE, Nov. 29. At length we have news direct from the Archipelago to Nov. 7. On the 3d November - the united Greek fleet, consisting of 74 ships of war and 35 fire-ships, sailed from the vicinity of Hydra to seek the Turkish and Lgyptian fleet, which has landed th e troops at Navarin, and, if circumstances permit, to attack it. (From the Trieste Observer.) A Captain arrived yesterday from Alexandria, in Egypt, and who landed at Navarind on the 15th of this month, reports, that the Turco-Egyptian fleet, of 132 sail, entered that port on the same day, preceded by a steam-boat, built in England. That constructed at Alexandria had sunk.— Th.! fleet carries 8,000 infantry and 1.500 cavalry, which last had been disembarked. It was reported that these troops were intended to operate upon Panass. We can positively contradict a paragraph which has appeared in the New Times of this morning, announcing the suspension of pay ment of the Bank of Messrs. DEANE and LITTLE HALES of Winchester. The notes of this Bank are, since the stoppage of Sir PETER POLE and Co. paid at Mr. JOHN BENT.tL (Broker), Angel-court, ThrOgillOrtoll•slreet. MADRID, DEC. 2.—lt is reported here that the Spanish Ministers have received accounts that the expedition which lately sailed from Co runna has fallen into the hands of the Colom bians, and when the first Minister heard of the event he attempted to blow out his brains.

There were present the Lord Chancellor, the Earl of •Liverpool, the Chan- cellar of the Exchequer, Mr. Peel, Mr. Canning, Mr. Huskis son, Viscount Melville, Lord: Bexley, and Mr. Wynn.

MANsioN-IloUst EETING.—The Meeting of Merchants at the Mansion House, was held at the suggestion of Alderman Wool), who, in a conversation with some persons connected with Government, Minn the distresses in the city, stated that of two propositions which he had . to make for the abatement of the general terror, that of holding a meeting of merchants to declare their confidence in the bankers appeared to be most advisable. In this opinion the members of Govern ment we allude to agreed, declaring at the same time, that they were convinced there was no ground for alarm, although so much existed, and that the panic was removable by the simple declaration of the merchants and 'traders that there was no real foundation for the report in circulation that the several banking houses were unable to resist the ordinary calls upon them. The other propositiOn; which the Alderman, we understand, had an intention of making, but which was not made, was, that the state of the affairs of each banking concern should be laid be fore a Committee of Merchants, in order that it might be ascer tained whether there were any among s t them who were unde serving of support, and that such of them as were might be excluded from the support intended to be given to those who were not. At a little after two o'clock yesterday, upwards of 700 merchants and traders had signed tire declaration lying at the Mansion-house.—( Times.)

He next pointed out the manner in which the ab.lorninal muscles contribute to the action of respiration, and described the motion which the ribs undergo in deep breathing. In touching on the muscles of the upper arm, he enforced his former remarks with respect to the scapula, and strewed its adaptation for varied and quick motion in consequence of its junction at only one point with bone, and of its being, as it were, imbedded in muscles, which enable it to move with ease and rapidity. We have not follow ed Mr. Green through the details of this lecture, as it consisted of a mere technical description if the muscles of the abdomen and upper arm, and would, of course, have little interest for general readers. '!'he remains of the late Admiral BINGHAM were interred yesterday morning, at twelve o'clock, in Saint Paul's Cathedral. Five mourning coaches and four followed the corpse in a hearse drawn by six horses ; six private,car riages completed the cavalcade. A woman at Barcelona, a few months ago, was brought to bed of a dead child, of which the physicians reported she had been pregnant for nine years.

The chltacter of Octavian is regarded rather difficult for a debu tant,and his footing in the feeling of h's audience is therefore by much the more creditable : his person is well proportioned, his voice good, his intonations natural, and his gesticulation grace ful. If we are not deceived by this specimen, we pronounce his advancement certain : his faults are, a manner too hurried, and improper emphasis. Deliberate action, we think More favourable to tragedy ; end for this, we have JOHN KEMDLE with us, though MACREADY- acid KEAN are against us —(Bath Chron., Dec. l 5 ) AWFUL.

INGENIOUS ROBBERY. —This day. a bov, about 15 years of age. named Allen, was brought up to Onion hall Office by Glannon, charged with having entered the house of Mr. Park, the sign of the Bell, in the Mint, and having stolen from thence various articles of wearing apparel. &c. Mrs. Park stated, that on the 24th November last, her busbaud having shut up the house at 11 u'cieek, they were at supper, when hearing a noise, she proceeded up stairs, and found the boxes open, and the cc n ten ts gone out of a number of them. The robbery appears more strange, on account of a girl sleeping in the room at the time. Sarah Innes, niece to the laintlady, stated that she had been six weeks from the country ; being in bed on the night in question, she heard the window of the chamber open; saw two boys enter ; said she was so overpowered with fear that she could not call for help. One of the boys ran his hand over her face three times, while the other stood at the room door, who upon hearing a noise of somersrson coming up stairs, jumped out of the window, folloWed bY his compaoion ; witaess knew prisoner's face by the Ilitit'of the moon, he had been drinking in the tap-room .untirlrb'cloca ; she saw them put chests and &ache out. or AvirAofr--ReCog..
