FRENCH PAPERS. (Fiona the Mailr, dated Sunday, June 12.) PARIS, JUNE 11. 'Extm:f from the Process Verbal of the Ceremonies of the ;oronation of his Majesty Charles X: On Monday May 30, at ten o'clock in the morning, the Fo rfigri Ambassadors and Ministers paid their respects to the Xing and the Royal Family. His Excellency the Apostolic it Nuncio complimented the Zing in the name of the Diplomatic Bodyin these terms :- --" StitE—Ale Diplomatic Body, deeply affected by the au 'ust ceremony which they have just witnessed, and by all the -recollections that it calls forth, hasten to offer to your Majesty the tribute of-their felicitations. After tong reverses, followed by events so marvellous that ire should in vain endeavoufto explain them by purely human causes, one of the Kings (your predecessors) received in this an cent city theiloly unction which had flowed on the forehead of " Tried, Sire, by greater misfortunes, but which never shook your Royal soul, Providence has conducted you, in a manner no less marvellous; to the foot of the same altar where Charles 1, - 11. again touk possession of this glorious Crown, the splen dour of which is still heightened by your virtues. " In seeing religion, which alone consolidates thrones, con serrate the hegining of your reign, Europe participates in the hopes which France has conceived of it, at the same time as it joins with it in forming the most ardent wishes for the happi neNs of your Majesty, which is:inseparble front the public fe licity. Sire, the surest pledge in your wisdom, your goodness, and your noble-character." The King answered = " Sir, On an occasion so interesting to religion- and the monarchy, am happy to see myself sur rounded by the representatives of all the Sovereigns of Europe. •. I am very.sen-sible to all that you .have just said to me in the mane of. the Diplomatic Body ; I have the firm confidence that his august ceremony will promote the happiness of my people; and I shall use all my efforts to maintain the peace and har mony which at present subsist between all the Powers. I hope that God will bless my efforts. We can do nothing without hint. Gentlemen, I beg you to make known to your masters the sentiments by which I am animated, and my gratitude for the part they Wave taken in my coronation." At the breaking up of the diplomatic meeting, M. de ',alive del:vered, in the King's name, the coronation medal to the Fo reign Ambassadors and Ministers. (From the Journal des Debate of Saturday.) PARIS, JUNE 10. 'The following letter, written yesterday from Havre, has been communicated to us : " T hasten to communicate to you a piece of news highly interesting to the,Tiench merchants, and which we received to 'day by way of Jacqmel ' " lttiglish goods imported into Hayti are to pay henceforth a duty of 12 per _cent. ; that is, the same as all other nations.- -Coffee exported from the ports of the Republic is to pay only gourdes and 40 cents. instead of 37, which it paid before, the territorial duty included. The Ilaytians aj length see their error: they have lonq _believed that they were protected by the English ; but the last application thus made to that nation to recognize taeir inde pendence having been unsuccessful, they have resolved not to favour it more than others. May this last act, which is entirely in favour of the k'rench merchants, at length open the eyes of our 31 Misters." FRENCH Fulips.—PAnis, JUNE 11.

The Government thinks it necessary to infOrm you of the true state of affairs at present in Greece. It is very probable that report will have augmented the number of troops :ianded by Ibrahim Paella at Itlotion and Coron ; learn then that the forces disembarked by him at those placesdo not ex ceed 8000. it v:lx a reg-elar corps, consisting of Arab soldiers, and commanded by about forty European adventures ; six thousand only, of them were fighting.mer.,.the rest were ser ..eants, such as grooms, 'exc. They were accompanied by' shout three hundred and fifty horsemen, organized in , the manner of the •Mamelukes. This corps was able to advance to within eight hours' distance of Alodon and Coron ; but they were not able to do any injury—but on the contrary. in a skirmish which took place with 1,000 Greeks: tmder our General, Passos I'davromuniottis, they were ‘forced to retire. As, however, our troops were not in readiness to oppose them, they advanced shortly after towards Navarino, ,hoping to besiege and take that fortress ; but it is too well de fended, and too strong. to be taken even by four times that number of enemies. Thus, up to this day, there have only -been skirmishes, in which the enemy have lost 1,300 men.— is Excellency the President, Conduriottis, has been elected I:nief of the forces destined to besiege Patras, and it is several .days since. ho proceeded on that expedition ; but on account of the landing of the Arabs at 'rlodon, he proceeded thither, and from thence he will march to Patras. A. corp of 8 to - 1.0,000 men has entered into western Greece. They must really imagine that they can strike terror into the deserts, since, on advancing into western Greece, they will only meet stones and guns • and it' even they succeed in reaching • the interior, they will 'find that Anatolico and Alissolonglii are impregnable. In Eastern Greece there have only appeared 400 horsemen, accompanied by the renegade Odysseus, who not being able to .seduce the people to his traitorous opinions, threw off the mask, lieserted to the Turks, and took up arms against his country ; but the brave General Gouras, with a force of 5,000 chosen men, attacked him, and drove him, with his companions, to Tarentum ; he keeps them closely blocked up there, and we think that shortly Odysseus and his troops will experience the fate they merit. The enemy have begun the campaign this year much earlier than usual; and we do not doubt that in this fifth campaign they will employ all their efforts, but we also confidently hope aind believe, that those exertions will fail, and that the Greeks, by brilliant victories, will advance their independence. The Government is occupied in expediting three strong corps of troops--one will be stationed at Volo, one is destined for the besieging of Negroponte, and the other for Agrapha. A fourth carps -of less strength will be stationed at Patronziki. According to all appearances, the Sultan has placed all his - hopes on two forces—that of the Albanians, and that of Me brined Ali Pacha. Aso the Egyptians, we have spoken of them above ; and as to the Albanians, the experience of four years has taught, us what may be expected from them, ewe daily on compayiag.t.ur forces of this year with those of the pre ceding campaigns. , ()Ur, yessels also are cruising on the coasts of Albania. Tiapoli di Romania, April 4, 1325. (0.5.) SECOND D.' iSPATCH. (RECEIVED BY THE WAY OF MARSEILLES.) THE .EXECUTIVE BODY. TO MESSRS. JOHN ORLANDO AND AUDREAS LTIRIOTTIS. The enemy before Navarino, having experienced defeats at various times, is at present in distress, and is endeavouring to retire iota the.fortresses of Modon and Coron. We hope that none of them will escape us, and that their prevent position may serve - them as a salutary lesson. On the 31st irfarch (J2th April) a curious engagement took place. About one , hundred Cheeks, under General Macrojanis, sallied out of the fortress sword in hand, threw themselves on the centre of the enemy, and, after having killed more than five hundred, accord ing to the most authentic information we have received, they returned into the fortress, laden with booty, having lostonly one of their companions, and with only seven slightly wound ed. It is also proper to inform you of the heroic action of J.ohn Marro-Michaelis, son of Petros Mavro-Michaelis.. That youpg man, accompanied by his brother George, had hardly karncd that t.le enemy advanced towards N , o,7lrivo, went to throw himself into that fortress with a body of soldiers. Unwilling to remain in the fortress, he sallied forth and threw Himself on the enemy, and occasioned them a considerable jo3s. Death, however, deprived 11A of this young but worthy pgricit.; he received in that engagement a mortal wound. The Government, having remarked the sincere zeal of Petres Mavro-Michaelis, who himself persuaded his sons to perform that heroic feat, restored la►n to all those civil rights, of -which circumstances had obliged it to deprive him last. year. At pre sent he is united with the other patriot. who bravely vindicate the rights of their country. We give you the agreeable news of a victory obtained by our brave Gouriut over Odysseus and his Turkish companions.— We hare sent you the details of that affair by Mr. K. The Lively has arrived here with 60,0001. from London. We have received the Contract of the second English - Loan, anal have forwarded it to you with the ratification.

ZANTE, MAY 14, 182.5.—0 n the 12th instant, Miaulis re ceived a reinforcement of 15 vessels and 5 fire-ships under Ca naris. All the vessels arriving from Navarina, agree in say ing that Could no longer prevent the enemy's frigates from entering the port, as they had taken possession of a small desert spot at the mouth of it. Whilst our seamen were in this position, Miaulis received the above-mentioned as. sistance, and ordered Canaris immediately to proceed with two fire-ships to 31odon, where forty ships of war and trans ports of the enemy were at anchor. According to the intelli gence received from various European vessels arrived here, we learn that they were all destroyed. All those European vessels arrived here without their anchors, and one with its parapet burnt, having narrowly escaped the conflagration.— Since that time there has constantly blown a strong southerly wind, which is very favourable for sending fire-ships into the port of Navarino, and 'it is generally thought that there was a conflagration at that place about the ,same.time as the former at Modon, as great flames were seen there during the whole night, and that at .31odon did not take place till about six in the morning.

Wednesday the Presbytery of Glasgow proceeded to consi der the charges brought by several of_ the Elders, &c. of the Scotch or St. Andrew's Church, Liverpool, against the Rev. David Thom, their Minister, accusing him of industriously spreading . , by his discourses from the pulpit. unsound and he reti doctrines—errors very gross, and striking at the vitals of which were pertinaciously adhered to by him, not withstanding- ca,oest entreaties to the contrary. This case came on ti,;fore the last Presbytery ; but in order that 1%1 r. Thom might be r;:abled to bring proof to disprove t he assertions, and parties coneernet: appear at the bar, proceedings were delayed to this meeting. ;:ev : Mr. Thom defended himself at some length ; he contended tn,,t he had supported the interests of the Church of Scotland ; that - prosecution against him owed its origin to an individual he ibo worsted in an immaterial point in the Session. lie contender; that the charges were all either irrelevant, gross, or abomi nable falsehoods, or misrepresentations of doctrines actually preached. Thus, either his meaning had been misrepresented, or conclusion drawn from it which the premises would not bear. Some particular expressions used might strike a person's mind, and yet the absolute denial of it migltt escape his memory. Titus there was the danger of taking isolated. expressions - for making charges. He concluded by observing, that he was opposed by only a minority of the proprietors. Of a congregation of 80 proprietors, only 20 were against him, and 35 of the congregation—only a sixteenth part of it. So attached were the people to him that his opponents for 14 months dare not call a meeting of tile proprietors. He confidently left his case with them, implicitly relying that they would come to a decision consonant to the word of God, anti to the best interests of his Church,—(Applause.) Several of the Preshvt.?ry considered the explana tion q uite satisfactory, and wi s hed Mr. Thom to. be gently exhorted , and y sent home to his flock. It Vita then agreed, that' a Committee be appointed nex t d ay to make f ur th er inquiry into the case , and to examine witnesses in the man ner b es t c al c ul a ted to arrive at the truth ; and also, if necessar in En A g-onm , or in ScotJaoo, to take evidell.

SOLEM OUTS DICERE FALSUM AUDEAT ? I,ON DON, TUESDAY EVENEVG, JUNE 14, 1825. We have received the French Papers of Satur day,.and made the extracts which will be found in another part of .our Paper. As the Coronation, with all its attendant fates and grand entrZ.s, is now over, the good people of Paris must return to the usual routine of life. The splendours of the past week, nevertheless, will furnish food for conversation to enliven their soirees and compensate, in some degree for the loss of the excitement public fetes create. Amongst these. papers will be found an official ac count of what a Morning Paper calls the speech-making that took place between CHARLES the Tenth and the Diplomatic Corps. We must testify our astonishment that the Members of Protestant, reek, and Mahomedan Churches would permit the Pope's Nuncio to utter senti ments opp(Nsed to the fundamental principles of their own religion in their names. It certainly is a most edifying example of religious tole- ration. In another column will also be found the Ra tification of a Second Greek Loan in England, and some official account of the late progress of the Greek arms. The accounts from Zante would appear to want confirmation. 'rhe German Papers bring letters from Naples, complaining of the variability of the temperature of the atmosphere. There were two shocks of an earthquake on the ISt of this month at Modica, in the province of Syracuse, in Sicily : no damage was done by them. The following is the only article worth extracting : NAPLES, MAY 13.—We have received from Odessa, by an official channel, notice that the Government of his Majesty the Emperor of Russia, in order to abolish the abuses teat have subsisted in. that port, has adopted several regulatior.s, one of which proscribes that the bill of lading► shall contain an accu rate specification not only of the number of the bales, packages, &c., but also of the weight of such article ; and in case of fraud the penalty is to be the payment of triple the duty if the fraud amounts to above 5 per cent., and the confiscation of the goods if it exceeds 10 per cent. It is also ordered by the Im perial Governnent, that every captain of a merchantman shall be bound to produce at the Custom-house true bills of lading, and if one is wanting be is to pay a fine of two silver rubles. Having, in our Paper of yesterday, replied to the malignant charges which had been exhihited• against the Law and Prize Agents of the Army of the Deccan, we proceed to lay before the public a few more remarks on the article we complained of. Iu doing this, after the conduct that the friends of the Trustees have pursued to wards the Prize and Law Agents of the Captors, the Trustees cannot expect much courtesy at our hands ; but nevertheless we shall endeavour, as much as in us lays, to set the public right in several points insinuated, or asserted as facts, in The English Gentleman, with as. much modera- Gun as.is consistent with our notions of what is due to individuals who have bPPII untruly and most wickedly slandered. In the first place, ~~ then, in order to give a semblance. of truth to tha charge of a desire to go to law, a copy of a letter from the Trustees to Sir 'l'. Iluir.op is given. This letter sap— " We hope there will be no occasion to proceed in any man ner towards the Court of Directors of the East India Company, other than that ;Melt will be most conciliating and amicable, in order to-recover from the East India Company every de scription of ritii'perty belonging to the Crown as booty, in con sequence of the operations of his Majesty's and the East India Company's troops in the late war in the Deccan." Now, the natural inference to be deduced from this paragraph is, that Sir T. ilist.or had, in his letter to the Trustees, to which the above is the reply, urged the necessity of taking legal steps against the East Indi:s Company, in order to re cover the booty granted to the Army of the Deccan by the Crown. What, however, is the fact, viz. that nothing in the letter tended to any such proposition ; but we give a copy of the letter and the public n ill thence judge for themselves. " 'With reference to that part of my letter above-mentioned, which averted to papers recently received by Major Wood from Major-General Sir Lionel Smith on the subject of booty cap tured in the territories of the late Peishwah in 1817 and 1818, I have now the pleasure to subjoin copies thereof.. I have not failed, before transmitting them to your hands, to peruse them with attention, and now venture, after the fullest consideration on the suggestion set forth in the printed Supplementary State ment annexed, to express the conviction I feel that the interests of the Army under your protection will be essentially benefited. should your Grace and Mr. Arbuthnot deem it proper to give the requisite legal authority by Power of Attorney to the Major General, to prosecute, if necessary, the Rights of the Crown "to all the treasure and property belonging to the State of Poonch." Is there any thing in this that would warrant such an idea, or even if there was, the express 'words of Sir THoNt.ks Ills Lop denying that he ever intended any such thing, and explaining what he did mean, is entitled to some weight,• and should have been attended to. Sir TuomA4, in a letter to the Trustees, dated 22d January 1825, says— " As the letter which I had the honour to receive from your' Grace and Mr. Arbuthnot, of the 6th of November, alluded to hostile proceedings, I think it necessary to state, that nothing was further from my intention or that of the Legal Advisers of the Army in submitting to you the document of the 25th of October last, than to suggest hostile proceedings against the East India Company. On the contrary, the suggestion of giving authority to Sir Lionel Smith arose out of the nature of the suit which had been instituted by the East India Company at Bombay, as establishing a general principle most important' to the interests of the Army, and the expediency of giving authority to some officer in India to act in aid of the Company in that suit, to which (as an unauthorised person had been al lowed at Bombay to assist the Law Officers of the Company ill their proceedings) no objection could be anticipated upon their part, and to take up the suit not as against the Company, but for the Crown, against the native Atneerchund Badehund, in case a disposition should be shewn by the Law Officers o f t he Company in India to abandon it, when it was discovered that success in it would not benefit the Company." We have mentioned this circumstance, because the author of the article in The English Genlle man intended that statement to work by infer ence, and thus to save himself from being at' cused of making direct charges, for which there was no foundation. Independently of this, there is another fact, viz. that the Agents have alwayo deprecated law proceedings, and with good rea' son too, foe besides the fact, that they would not conduct any suit the Trustees might deem it proper to institute, us they employ their owo Solicitor, they could have no relish for legal pro ceedings when they are at this moment under large advances on the credit of the prize fund/ advances necessarily made to oppose the claims of the Company and Grand Army before the Privy Council, and in order to carry on the htl3l - of the Prize Agency. It is not to be fo;'" gotten that Sir T. IlistoP was more intereOet i than even the Trustees could be to prevent liti gation, because the amount of the costs he woad have to pay would be in exact proportion to his share of the Prize-money. The next point is, the assertion " that an order is already half way to India divesting the Ind s' Company of the retention of the prize mon"Y' and investing it for distribution, with all the ac" cumulating interest, to the order of the trustees2' We shall not quarrel with the language of tlii§ paragraph, because, as far as we can collect it s meaning, we have a full answer for it, althong h otherwise we might easily say we cannot under"" stand it, for it is very difficult to shew how 3 person would be divested of his retention. T l ` c fact meant to be alleged, however, is, we belietfel that an order is half way to India, commaudio6 the Deccan prize money to be placed to the orde r ' of the trustees for distribution. If this is fact , all we can say is, we rejoice that after all the delays and vexations the Army has endured iu t lll5 matter the day of distribution is near at hand But we must he allowed to doubt the Wit t ' of this assertion, for we have heard that t he trustees with singular, but unaccountable de licacy, expressed their desire to the East fill Company that th e y sh o uld retain possession ° the money.
