It is now that the intervention of the three P•iwers which have guaranteed the existence of Greece should take place, or the most deplorable confusion may overwhelm this country.

Henry Colburn and Richard Bentley, New Burlington. street. LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING. NOVEMBER 1. 1831. The disturbances at Bristol arc, we regret to perceive, far from being yet ended. The mob, according to the latest accounts received from ,hat quarter, still parade the streets by hundreds, the majority in a state of the most brutal and abandoned intoxication ; trade is at a perfect stand-still ; all the ordinary restraints of law have lost their influence ;—in a word, the city seems wholly in the hands of a set of ferocious, ungovernable ruffians. One consolation, how ever, remains : the military are pouring in from all quarters, so that we have reason to hope and believe that by to-morrow's post we shall hear that this frightful state of anarchy is effec tually put an end to. This effected, it will be necessary immediately to inquire into the causes of its origin ; which, we have a strong suspicion, will be found to have been brought about by the worse than injudicious, the positively criminal officiousness of the Magistracy, and, more par ticularly, of their satellites the special constables. But the man of all others whose conduct deserves the severest reprehension is decidedly Sir CHARLES WETHERELL. At a period of such popular excitement, knowing, too, that his ap pearance in Bristol would have been the signal of much commotion, what right had he to hazard the peace of the community, and place the lives and property of hundreds of respectable tradesmen in jeopardy by his undesired presence ? True, he was Re corder of the city, and as such had official duties to perform, but could he not, ought he not, under all the pressing exigencies of the occasion, to have performed those duties by deputy ? What was there he could do, in his capacity of Recorder, that his deputy could not have done equally well ? Had he been in disposed, a substitute would have been at once provided, and is not the question of the peace of a vast commercial district, with which his appearance in Bristol was intimately con nected, sufficient excuse for his absence ? Sir C. WETHERELL has really much to answer fig. We charge him not with any premeditated desire to excite disturbance—could such an ac cusation be brought home to him, he would not be fit to continue a Judge another hour—but we do say that he has acted with indiscretion, amounting almost to criminality, in thus rashly presuming to brave public opinion. We should hope that his reply to the Alagistrates—(as al luded to by our Bristol Correspondent)—who requested him not to make his appearance in Bristol, that he would come "if even the can non barricaded the passage," is not correct. We cannot bring ourselves to believe that he would have dared to hazard such an observation. Our latest accounts state that the city is now placed under martial law, that the Political Union have organized themselves, and that the respectable merchants and tradesmen are stirring in every direction. These decisive measures will, of course, produce the desired effect ; though it is a thousand pities they were not sooner acted on. It is gratifying to know that the riots did not in any way originate with, or were pro moted by the Reformers. The mob who excited them were the lowest of the low, the basest of the base ; wretches wholly uncon nected with Bristol ; drunken bargemen, an d knavish colliers, whose hands were uplifted against all parties, and all classes; who knew no distinction of persons ; who had no other ends in view than simply to gratify their own natural thirst for plunder, violence, and bloodshed. W e firmly believe that when the case is—as it must and will be—thoroughly investigated, it will b e found that the ultra Anti-Reformers have had no slight share in occasioning the riots. Since writing the above, we understand that Sir CHARLES WETHERELL arrived safe i n London last night, at half-past seven o'clock. We have received this morning Frankfort Papers to the 24th ult. and Lisbon Gazettes to the 22d inclusive, from which the following are extracts : LISBON, OCT. 3 0 .-Ilis 111,1jesty has been pleased to order the intendant of the police to recommend to the subordinate magistrates to use the greatest vigilance and activity in preserving the public peace, and particularly to endeavour to discover and punish the authors of false and alarming reports, which they spread for their wicked pur poses, though the in h abitants ought to be undeceived, since they have witnessed the unshaken loyalty of the na tion to the King in times of danger, and as they iIdVC sufficient reason to know that the interference of a torcien nation, which they proclaim, is an event politically impos sible, as it would directly controvert the most chair and in dispensable principles of the law of nations, which are recognized by all Governments, and which may be said to have, maintained order and peace in Europe. The Ma gistrates are to understand, that the smallest remissness in their conduct will suffice for his Majesty to consider them unworthy of remaining in his Royal service. It is neces sary, that they should know that in this they are not re commended to act with unnecessary rigour, or in an arbi trary manner, which, besides that it is always contrary to justice, and instead of doing good does harm, as it dis pleases good men, who cannot approve of it, and reflects discredit on the Magistrates who practice it, his Majesty desires that his reign shall lie the rein of the law and of justice ; he will disapprove every proceeding of the autho rities of a contrary tendency, and will see with satisfaction only those that bear the stamp of justice and public good. LISBON, Our. I:l.—According to the latest accounts from Madeira, the whole island enjoyed the greatest tranquillity. The loyal inhabitants were animated with sentiments of unalteiable attachment to the sacred cause of our legitimate King, his Majesty Dan Miguel I. The necessary fortifications were erecting at all points of the island to oppose any attempts of the rebels. OCTOBER 21,—The Gazette contains a circular letter from his Majesty to all the Archbishops and Bishops of the kingdom, recommending to their attention a letter of which a espy is enclosed, written in October, 1789, by the Queen of Portugal to the Prelates, which contains various counsels highly advantageous to religion, and which his Majesty, zealous for the promotion of the religion which the nation professes, urgently impresses on the attention I of the Prelates. MUNICH, OCT. 20.—His Royal Highness our Crown Prince sets out on Friday On his tour to Italy, and will go first to Florence. We just learn that all the men belonging to the three regiments of the line in garrison here, who are absent on furlough, are ordered to return to their regiments, as a battalion of each is to go and strengthen and complete the cordon on the frhntier. This sudden recall of the absent soldiers gave rise at first to various reports, all of which are unfounded. - The Reform candidate is successful in Cam bridgeshire, and has beaten the protege of the two houses of YORKE and MANNERS clean out of the field. The great meeting, for the purpose of forming a Metropolitan Political Union, took place yes terday. The meeting W 33 numerously and re spectably attended, and time fitting resolutions entered into. Despatches were received at the Colonial office, this morning, from Lieut.-General Sir EDWARD BARNES, the Governor of Ceylon, dated June 12. Lord GODERICH transacted business this morning with Lord MELBOURNE, at the Home office. RIOTS AT BRISTOL. This morning two other txpresses arrived at the office of the Secretary of State, from Bristol, bringing despatches to Lord Melbourne, relative to the disturbances at Bristol. A❑ express also arrived at half-past twelve o'clock, front Bristol, with despatches for Lord Fitzroy Somerset, at the Horse Guards, and it is stated that when the mes senger left that city the tumult was terrific—fourteen of the 14th Hussars have, it is said, been slain. The Bishop of Bristol arrived in town this morning at his residence in Great George-street. Last night a considerable force of artillery was ordered to proceed from Woolwich to Bristol with the utmost de spatch. Post-horses were engaged from different co,ch proprietors to assist in conveying the cannon and ammuni tion. Mr. Wheatley, of Greenwich, furnished them with no less than thirty-two horses himself. They left Wool wich about eleven o'clock. The road through Kensington and Hammersmith, where they passed about one o'clock this tnorning, presented a warlike aspect. CLIFTON, MONDAY, FOUR O'CLOCK. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sin.,—Sir Charles Wetherell arrived in Bristol on Sa turday, by a public entry. It was known three weeks since be would be ill- received as Recorder of Bristol. He was, indeed, ill-received, and when at the Mansion house the mob endeavoured to get him out to murder him; he, however, luckily escaped by a pr ec ipit a t e retreat. . . Yesterday morning (Sunday), the mob assembled at th e Mansion house, thinking he was still there ; broke in, drink the wine, and destroyed the furniture. In the afternoon the rioters liberated all the prisoners from the three prisons, and burned them. They have burned the Bishop's Palace, with all its contents. They have likewise destroyed and burned the three toll-houses. and the Man,ion-house, with its contents, and forty houses besides. half of Queen's square is in ruins. Fifty families are ruined, and have no home. I have seen all these places in flames. All Sunday afternoon, and all night, no opposition was mule to the mob—they did as they pleased : but very few soldiers were here; great blame is due somewhere. All the shops are slur —business is at a stand—dread ful work is expected to-night. This morning some soldiers arrived—many have been shot—many wounded—and many driven into the float. Persons are removing their property from Bristol. The Custom-house, the lansion house, and the Etcise-office are reduced to ashes. All the neighbourhood is in tyre greatest alarm. lam just come from seeing Sir John Smyth, B art. of Ashton court, who expects a visit from the colliers. In great haste, I remain, Sir, Your humble servant, Clifton, near Bristol. B. A. This moment hundreds of con , tables are passing, armed with guns, &c., having just been sworn in. All this ruin is occasioned by S;t Charles Weth,rell's cowing to Bristol. The loss is 200,0001. at least. rer Share. 9.2% PORTSMOUTH, OCT. 31. An express arrived this morning at nine o'clock from Bristol, calling for immediate assistance from our garrison. Shortly afterwards a telegraphic despatch was received, di recting that the 5•2 d Regiincnt, which landed on Thursday from North America, should be conveyed by a Govern ment steamer to Soothton, and to proceed on with every possible despatch to Bristol. Sir C. Campbell, our Lieut. - Governor, was inspecting them at the time when the order al rived, and at four o'clock they were all on board and away from this garrison in the Conference steamer. COUNTY OF MONMOUTH REFORM MEET ING.—On Thursday last our High Sheriff, W. Hou.ts, Esq., presided at a public meeting of the gentlemen and freeholders of this county, held in the Town-hall, Usk, or the purpose of addressing his MAJESTY in consequence of the rejection of the Reform Bill. The words " nume rous and respectalle" are so hacknied that we shall not press them into the service on this occasion. Let it con tent us to say that the place of meeting was as full as it could hold, and that of the individuals composing it there were none upon whom even IlonAcE Twiss would have dared to cast a sneer. CAPE!, HANBUtt4 LEIGH, Esq., of Pontypool Park, the consistent advocate and practiser Of every thing that is just and knourable man, was as usual at his post. He was supported by Sir TutimAs ROBERT SALusautty, Rirt. and a whole host of the other gentlemen whose names we have recorded an having been present at former meetings. NOtitillg . Comm show in a stronger light the feeling that RetOrm has excited in this county than the fact that it has produced eloquence not unworthy of St. Stephen's in men hitherto unaccustomed to public speaking.—Monniuuthshire On Friday B. K. GENN, tailor, of Union street, Cambridge, Captain of YORKERS conductors, in duced five freeholders, who came to vote for TOWNLEY, to lay trifling bets with him o❑ the result of the election, Ind immediately went and laid an information against them before the Assessor, by which means they were de prived of the exercise of their franchise. As soon as the circumstance became known the people drubbed hint soundly, and, in all probability, would have killed hint, had he not been rescued by a body of constables, in a state of nudity. GENN laid ss. to 2s. 6d., and justified him self by saying, " I had a right to take every method in my power to win my wager." What think you of this for one of the Cambridge freemen ! !

The Master of the Rolls resumed his judicial labours to-day at the Rolls' Court, Chancery-lane. His Honour was occupied the whole morning with petitions, upwards of 50 of which he had disposed of previous to our reporter's leaving; none of them, however, possessed the least feature of public interest, their prin cipal object being either to get money out of Court, or for refe. rences to the Master, which were necessary to the future carrying on of the suit. - - VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT. Ilis Honour, the Vice-Chancellor, having terminated the SeQl yesterday, proceeded with bankrupt petitions to-day, but no case worth reporting came before the Court during the morning.

PYROTECHNICAL EXHIBITION IN HYDE PARK. Last night, between ten and eleven o'clock, the atmosphere was illuminated for a considerable distance by the exhibition of a vast number of newly-invented signal rockets, which were dis charged in Hyde Park by way of experiment, before Captain William Bowles, the Comptroller-General of the Coast Guards, and a number of other distinguished naval officers. The rockets are to be used in the Coast Blockade service as a series of signals, and from the extreme brilliancy and extension of the light they emit are admirably adapted to convey the most minute intelli gence. The experiment seemed to give the greatest satisfaction, and the rockets are for the future to be used in the revenue cut ters. Sonic few years back a similar experiment was tried by Chevalier Southby, the artist in tire-works, at Woolwich ; but at that time Government, for some cause or other, refused to adopt them. We were told that he is the artist employed in the ma nufacture of those exhibited last night. THE MARKETS -(THIS DAY.) HAY M A RKETS.—(At per Load of 3fl crimes.) CUMBERLAND (LATE ST. JAMES'S.)

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. Extract of a letter from Bristol to one of the first commercial houses in the city, 0ct.31 - " Our city is in a most dreadful state of riot. The mob, last night, burnt down bridewell, the gaol, the county gaol, mansion. house, and two wings of Queen-square, 17 houses, including the custom.house and excise-office. I am sorry to say it is chiefly owing to the injudicious conduct of the Mayor and Magistr a t es . The whole city is at present under military la w , an d th e s t reets are strewed with wounded and plunder. I have just seen on e m a n with his head cut oft: The troops, who behaved extremely well, avoided firing on the snob as much as possible, but have charges! and cut down all those who would not disperse.

The shops are all closed, and no business doing." Accounts from Brussels, state that the project of the law on the adoption of the twenty-four articles will certainly pass the Chamber of Representatives. We have received the Journal de la Hoye of the '29th of Oct. ; :t does not bri»g any news of importance. Three Lisbon mails have arrived this morning, the last sailed on the 23d of October. Consols, which left oil' yesterday at 82ai %, opened at 82 HALF-PAST TWELVE. A New York Paper has been received at the North and South American Coilee-house, three days later than the last, of the 11th October. It is void of intelligence, but we copy the following : The Secretary of the Treasury has given notice that the 4!4 cent. stock, of May :26, 1514, to the amount of .5,000,000 dollars. amid the f per cent. stock, to the amount of 999,999, will be paid on the Ist and :2adays of January next." THE FUNDS. The greatest interest and anxiety with the public at present is the dreadful events occurring at Bristol, which city is now under military law, and on the arrival of a reinforcement of troops, it is to be hoped that general order will be restored ; but Our letters this morning from the above city are of a melancholy nature, great Jest' action of buildings and property h as t a k en p l ace. Consols have been done at 8•2%, at present they are 82 We do not as yet hear any news by the Lisbon mails. HALF-PAST ONE. we have seen othor letters ilmn Bristol, stating that the pro. erty destroyed amounts to upwards of three hundred thousand and that tranquillity would be again restored on Tuesday, a ample torces had arrived. The shops were expected again to be opened on Tuesday. In the various encounters it is esti mated that two or three hundred were cut down by the military, and forty persons have been sent to the Infirmary. One letter says that a proclamation was issued, that all persons should remain a; home after a certain hour in the evening. The mil;tary have co mplete possession of the town. Fi v e pieces of artillery have left Woolwich for Bristol.

Au institution of this nature we are inclined to think not only desirable at the present crisis, but calculated to answer very important purpose!. --hull At the meeting yesterday, it was announced a new national sung would shortly be produced, entitled he " English Hymn, hy the author of " Non Ali Ricordo." MAGAZINE DAY. BLACKWOOD'S MAGAZINE. A less fortunate number than usual, contain ing little variety, and less amusement. " Citi• zen Kings" is outrageous, as usual, in the temper of its politics, and full of repetitions. The same argument is repeated, with but little varia tion, three times in as many pages. " Dia logue between the Marquis of Anglesea and the Ghost of his Leg," will, though it possesses considerable merit, disappoint expectation. The reader would naturally expect, not a grave, po litical dialogue, but a quaint, spirited, eccentric colloquy in the old inimitable style of Christo pher North. " The Colonial Empire of Great Britain" is as heavy as the National Debt ; " Parliamentary Reform and the French Revo lution" replete with vigour of style and thought ; The Owl," an admirable, original poem ; and the " Noctes" neither better nor worse than usual. NE TV MONTHLY MAGAZINE. The chief feature in the various literary con tributions to the present number is elegance, but it is elegance without its usual accompani ment, insipidity. The articles too have an other sterling recommendation, they are inte resting and well timed. Mr. Bulwer sets out on his editorial career in a truly promising spirit, as was indeed to be expected from the author of that tale, whose wit is only to be equalled by its sound sense, " Pelham." " Of the Address to the Public" we say nothing, it is like all ad dresses we ever yet read, full of promises, which in this instance we hope are not made only to he broken. " The Room in which Canning Died" is pleasingly and feelingly written. " Conversations with an Ambitious Student in 11l Health" are chiefly remarkable for the ex quisite grace and polish of their style, and the air of plaintive melancholy that pervades them. Of their metaphysical capabilities we cannot say much ; though they are put forth in a style bordering on the ostentatious, yet they scarcely penetrate beyond the surface of things. The " Invalid Student" is very minute in his detail of proofs, and deductions therefrom, that the world was the creation of superior intelligence ; as if the question had not been already settled in one of Dr. Valpy's masterly theological treatises, to which the author seems to have helped himself most plenteously. " The World as It Is" is lively, but possesses little novelty either in design or execution. It is modelled on the style of Voltaire's tales, the wit and sar casm however being diligently omitted. "'Temper of the House of Commons" is an amusing, we will even add, a valuable paper. It is the ' result of observation, unalloyed by prejudice or faction. The writer reasons like a cosmo polite " qui mores hominum multorum vidit et urbes," not as a partisan. " Aristocracy in Religion" is pithy and piquant. We quote it. It is worth remembering, especially at the present crisis : " ARISTOCRACY IN RELIGION. " What bath all this pomp and pride—these Bishop rics and Archbishoprics to do with the religion of Christ—with any religion whatsoever ? What man of ordinary sense or ordinary meekness will not confess that in him who affects to approach God the nearest, (and in established churches the higher the grade on earth, the nearer the supposed approach to Heaven—. The Saint in crape is twice a Saint in lawn') the first requisite virtue is humility. So sensible is even the hlussulman of thin truth that he never ventures to approach his Gud in sum tuous apparel. The pomps and vanities of the world are scarcely to be assumed to its Creator. Nor in there ally haughtiness so revolting as that haughtiness and priesteraft which dares to play the aristocrat to the omnipotent ! 66 BILACHYS." THE illE TR OP OLITAN. This magazine, we hear, increases rapidly in circulation ; we are glad of it, it deserves to suc ceed. The number before us is alternately grave and gay, entertaining and edifying. With the " Simpkin Papers" we have been specially di verted ; it a rich morceau, daintily conceived and executed. " A Preface to Let" reads like one of Mr. Horace Smith's sprightly essays. If so, it is not unworthy of the talents of one of the most successful periodical writers of the day. " Prussia and her Military Resources" is, just now, a very seasonable disquisition. It bears evident traces of authenticity, and cannot but be read with advantage. " A Captivity among the Rockites in the Mountains of Munster, by an Officer" is quite dramatic in interest, and we take for granted is based on truth. The re maining articles are neither above nor below par, but just attain the Salisbury-plain level of mediocrity. We regret that we have no space for extracts. FRASER' S MA GAZINE. The great defect in this infant periodical is its flippancy. Like a forward child of promise, it is all pertness and assumption, and mimics the egotism, without the redeeming sense and strength of Blackwood. Yet there is good stuff occa sionally to be met with in its pagc,s ; discriminat ing criticism, shrewd romalks on men and things;; occasionally forcible satire, and now and then a dash of genuine humour. 'What a pity such re • deeming qualities should be hopelessly buried beneath a waggon load of affectAion We can not sympathise with the ot ist ica I trash entitled, " Oliver Yorke's Levee." It is a vapid imita tion of Dr. Maginn's worst manner. But the Dr. has humour, which his shadow, his would be alter ego," has not had the good luck to dis cover and transfer to his own lucubrations. " Lays of the Tw a ddl e S c h oo l" are hi g hl y amusing, and satiric a l. " P ar li amentar y Elo quence" is passable. " A nc i en t C ommerce o f England," most toler a bl e , as h o nest D og b erry says, and not to be end ure d, as is always the case with the lucubrations of a noveli3t s who i n t h e decline of life turns, political economist. M r . J. Galt is the perpetrator of this very serious UNITED sER VICE J p U RNAL. We trace the pens of some able and practised writers in this number, which is more than usually amusing, from the miscellaneous duality o f its contents. The details relative to Sir Walter Scott's passage by an English frigate to the Mediterranean, reflect the highest credit on the judgment of the First Lord of the Admiralty, and the liberality of our gracious Sovereign, .ho, on Sir James Graham's application, at :nice directed Oat a free passage should be provided for Sir Walter Stott and his family in tl►e very first inan-of-war that was proceeding to the Mediterranean. ." The Bounty Again" contains some curious' and novel faoi relative to the mutiny of his crew aga.ip i st Cdptaiu Nigh, 'who is represented as havintlieen inhuman, in ,olent, and coarse its his conduct to the men under his com►nand. MONTHLY MA GAZINE. The present number of this popular Journal is less intemperate and impetuous than usual in its political diatribes, which we take to be no slight evidence of improvement. The literary articles are lively and well digested ; but the Notes of the Month are too long and tedious, containing not much wit, and less sarcasm. MONTHLY REVIEW If not a very brilliant, this is a very sound, healthy, and sensible body of a-hit:ism on the various works that arc just now most before the eyes of the public. LA TV MA GA ZINE. This publication has, we are informed, a very extensive circulation among a large, a very large, and still increasing, class of the community, viz, the lawyers. By these co►npetent judges of its merits and demerits it is held in ue slight esti mation, an unanswerable proof of the ability with which it is written and edited. ASIATIC JOURNAL. We hare a horror of the words " New Series," which generally mean nothing, or worse than nothing, something positively interior to the former. In this instance, however, the phrase is well applied; for the " Asiatic; Journal" is superior to what it used to be, more full of useful matter ; and less encumbered with keary sapless lumber. The present nuealsee is au excel lent one. Q UARTERL Y JO URXAL •R ditGIII CULT EIRE. A work of much research and erudition, and one that will be particularly acceptable to far mers and agriculturists. The article on the Capital required in Farming," contains much serviceable information of a sound practical character. DIVINES OF _THACHURCII OF ZNG- LAND.—No. IC TIIL We have already recorded our opinion of the character and utility of this publication ; to the effect that it is much coiled for at the present time, is conducted with eminent ability, pub lished in a commodious form, and at a very ac cessible price. The subject of the present number is " Hall's Contemplations," which are prefaced by a neat biographical sketch of the learned and exemplary author. LAt _BELLE ASSEMBLEE. The portrait prefixed to this number is o f Lady Agnes Buller, sister to the prevent Duke of Northumberland. It is engraved by Thomp son, from a painting by Holmes, in a truly de licate and graceful spirit. The literary contents form agreeable reading, including among other articles a review, accompanied by copious ex tracts, of all the leading Annuals of the year. WORLD OF FASMIOX. The embellishments to this work are numerous and exceedingly well executed. T he literary de partment too is better than usual, being more lively and miscellaneous than that of any of its predecessors. COURT CIRCULAR.
