_ ..:.~:. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. PoRTS3IGLITH, SEPT. S.—On Sunday last the transport Baltic Merchant, bound to this port, from Rio Janeiro, put into Cork by contrary winds. She left Rio on the 29th of June, ten - days after the Eclair, which arrived here last week. No intelli gence had been received from .130enos Ayres, rela tive to the Preliminary Treaty of Peace agreed upon by M. Garcia. Every thing appeared to hinge upon that event, The return of the Heron was daily expected. The Menai, 26, Captain M. Sey mour, sailed for the Pacific on June 29. The Blanche, Captain Mends, was daily expected to arrive at Rio, from Valparaiso, having been relieved in the Pacific by the Doris. The Baltic Merchant brings home returned stores, and, as passengem:, - Lieut. Markham, of the Ganges, and Lieut. Caul:. field, of the Menai ; also Messrs. Robbe, Pakenhaw, and Dacres, Midshipmen of the Ganges, promoted to the rank of Lieutenant. Lieut. Anderson,' of the Cadmus, had been appointed to the Ganges; Mr. Milne (son of Admiral Sir David Milne, K.C.8.), was promoted to be Lieutenant of the Cadmus; and Mr. M'Donald, of the Ganges, to be Lieutenant of the Menai. The ship Crown, bound to Quebec, run foul of the Baltic Merchant, and carried away her bowsprit. The following extract from our Correspondent's letter contains some further information from that quarter : RIO JANEIRO, .JUNE 29.—0 n the 27th June, Rear-Admiral Sir Robert Otway gave a dejeune, on board the Ganges, at which were present, the Mar quess de Maccyo (the Brazilian Minister of Marine) the Marchioness and her sister,the British Minister, the French Minister, and the beautiful Marchioness de Gabriac, his lady, the Austrian and Prussian Ministers, the Minister from Hamburg'', and the suites of the respective Embassies, the Baroness do Rio da Pratra (wife of the Brazilian Admiral com manding in the River Plate), and family, with the families of several of the principal British residents, and the Captains of his Majesty's ships present, as well as Commodore Biddle, of the United States ship Macedonia. After the repast, on the health of his Majesty the Emperor of Brazil being proposed, a Royal salute was fired at the moment on board his Majesty's ship Ranger, Lord Henry Thynne, on ac-: count of the delicate state of the lovely Marchioness, which would not bear the shock of the guns on board the Ganges. Dancing was then commenced on the quarter-deck, and quadrilles, waltzes, and Spanish dances were kept up with spiiit for some hours, after which the company retired - , highly delighted with their entertainment, as well as with the view of the internal order and arrangement of that mag nificent ship. The Brazilian ladies were so much animated by the novelty d the scene, that they cheered on leaving the ship; on which the crew of the Ganges manned the rigging, and gave them three hearty cheers in return. It is evident that the Gallant Admiral knows how to preserve a good un:, derstanding with all parties, and that he is likely to succeed in that object, while he can thus keep the ladies on his side. " The tough old Brown has recommenced opera tions in the River Plate. On the sth of June he had a smart skirmish with the blockading squadron, which he drove before him down the River. It is . expected he will shortly, make an attack upon them in their own waters, off Monte Video. A frigate is' expected from Holland, it is said; and the Buenos Ayreans, thus reinforced, will probably astonish the Brazilians, ere long, if peace does not take place, which, hourever, is expected shortly. " Several British vessels have been detained, for has* on board arms and munitions of war, and other articles, the property of the Brazilian Govern. ment. Our merchants in London seem entirely to forget that they are sending to a belligerent port, goods which are liable to be seized and detained along with the unlawful commodities also shipped in the vessels coming here ; .and they ought to be more cautious in making their shipments than to send there in such bad company. A Dutch ship detained by a privateer, and sent for Bitenos Ayres, has been retaken from the prize crew, and the prize master killed, by the part of her crew remaining on board, who !Jaye carried her into Monte Video. It is said she had goods on board belonging to the Brazilian Govern:nent." On Thursday his Majaty's surveying-vessel the Kangaroo, Mr. Miles, acting C o mmander ' arrived from Jamaica, having left t hat island on July 10, with a mail, which, as the wind was against the ves sel coming up channel, was landed at Falmouth, yesterday se'nnight. The Valorous, 28, Captain t the Earl of Huntingdon, was to leave Port Royal shortly for England. The Barham, GO, Sir Thomas Louis, Bart., had sailed far St. Domingo ; on her return she was to proceed to Halifax and Quebec, with money. The Arachne, Captain Penman ' had go ne to the Windward st ation ; the Scylla, toßer muda, with despatches; the Espeigle and Ferret were lying at Port Royal. All the crews of the ships on the station were healthy ; nor was there any prevalent disease existing among the Islands, except at Cuba, where (at the Havannah) fever was very destructive of human life, both among the troops and the inhabitants. The following passen gers, came home in the Kangaroo : 7 — Captain Cole brook, R.A.; Lieute nants Bond, Pylades; , promoted from the Arachne ; and Fprrester, of the Barham; Messrs. Stanmer, Dative'', White, Mid. invalided ; and Mr. Rae, merchant. On Tuesday the Briton frigate, Capt. lion. Win. Gordon, sailed for Newfoundland, with a detach ment of seventy-nine men of the Newfoundland Ve teran Companies, and for Quebec, to land Commis. eioner Ba:Tie. On Thursday the Cracker, Lieut Hough, sailed to protect the Fisheries on-the Cons' of Jersey. The Isis, 50, Cottemodore Sir Thomas Staines, K.C.8., has left Chatham for this p ort, on her way to the Mediteraanean. The Undaunted frigate, Captaia Augustus Clifford, C. 8., is expected to sail from this port about the middle of next month, with Lord William Bentinek, Governor-General of India. Sir Thos. Hardy has returned from his visit to the Admiralty. His squadron of experimental ships will be ready for sea again in about ten days. The Tweed, 28, Capt. Lord 11. J. S. Churchill, went out of harbour this morning, fitted for the Cape of Good Hope station. Yesterday the Kan garoo sailed for the River.

Don Pedro has understood his interest, that of his character, that of his most intimate ally ; we may ' add, that of Europe. By a single act, he has con verted a complex situation into a simple situation. He has cemented the repose of the Peninsula and of Europe; he has returned to England more than he had received from it. We founded the preservation of peace on the accession of Don Miguel to the Re= gency, by virtue of the tight which the charter anA his birth give him. Don Pedro has resolved to render this double foundation more solid by strengthening it by his express consent. Thanks to him, there will be now no pretext for resistance. Friends and adversaries of the charter, and those who thought with us that it could not, without de grading it, be converted into an instrument of hatred, and those absolutist liberals who, through enthusiasm for • the Constitutional Government, attributed to the Emperor the right of conferring and of taking away the Regency without other law than his good pleasure, are united by one act in the same opinion ; under pain of giving to themselves the most formal contradiction, they must receive with joy the Con stitutional Envoy of the Charter, who is at the same time the s pecial Envoy of Don Pedro. Ancient traditions, modern institutions, legitimacy, liberty, all these forces which might combat each other, mutually support each other. Our re;c.ers will perhaps thank us for not having attempted, at the commencement of this discussion, to fathom all the difficulties of Don Pedro's situa- It was one of those new and delicate questions, which it is impossible to touch without endangering many interests, and, what is still more to be dread ed, without producing openly titles which require to be covered with a veil. Don Pedro succeeded to the Prince whose circumspect and periodical policy had condemned the union of the two crowns on the same head. He himself had reigned in Brasil during his father's life-time. He had sanctioned the act of independence solely by virtue of the principle of incompatibility. Nay more, he had solemnly recog nised this principle in his own charter, which has been opposed to us as a proof of the contrary. Will it be denied that the abdication is a consequence of the treaty ? It was confusedly known that a solemn act for ever separated Portugal from Brazil ; but few persons know, or wish to investigate, the natural ef fects of this act. There was, as it were, on this point a tacit convention to abstain from it. But there result- ed from this very convention an obscurity which was unfavourable to those acts of the Emperor which con cerned Portugal. All these serious difficulties are reduced to idle subtilties, by the direct nomination of Don Miguel. A palpable fact is substituted for problems; every one may, as he pleases, consider this fact as a homage to legitimacy, or to political necessity, as the accomplishment of the treaty of se paration, of the act of abdication, or of Art. 92 of the Charter, for in fact it is all those. The Prince, whom the treaty of separation appeared to render a stranger to the affairs of Portugal, sanctions that treaty by delivering the power to his brother—the Prince whom, in the circumstance of incompatibility, the Cortes of Lamego would probably have called to the throne, will ascend it at a later period, first passing through the regency. Nay more; he will ascend it without dispossessing Don Pedro, who has dispossessed himself, nor the posterity of Don Pedro, destined to share his power; and the rights of the two branches will be blended in the children of Don Miguel, as, 350 years ago, the Rights of the two Roses were confounded in the person of Henry VII. Let the political Saumaises exercise at their lei sure all their sagacity, the cabinets and nations can only bless the happy issue of a threatening complica tion of interests. We sincerely . congraudate - England on a result to which it is not impossible that its good advice may have contributed ; for it naturally leads to the eva cuation of Portugal, which its politicians had so much at heart. What, in fact, should the English troops do at Lisbon ? There is no need to protect the Government against the discontented in the country: it will be very able to protect itself, England, besides, has always protested, and still protests, against all pa tronage of this kind. Neither is there any occasion to protect it against the real or supposed discontent of Spain. The accession of Don Miguel dispels every cloud. Don Miguel is as a pledge, which the Emperor of Brazil sends to Spain of the sincerity of his intentions. It is true that it is through the Charter that the new Regent makes his entrance to power : but the author of the Charter himself ac knowledges that it is not infallible. He himself offers the remedy which we formerly pointed out on the Sth of August, to the imperfections of this law which is ne cessary, but susceptible of modification. Besides, it is too great a calumny on Spain to believe that the mere word Charter produces on it as it were a fit of hy drophobia. It has felt that under the regimen of a Charter the rights of Sovereigns may be defended and avenged. We also congratulate our own coun try on a result which will be no less profitable to it than to England—the perfect security of Spain, whence the inutility of the French occupation, whence the e vacuation and in consequence an addi tion to the army of 20,000 tried soldiers, a saving of ten millions to the Treasury, a greater scope opened to our commerce, and its relations with the' new world rendered more free. Lastly, every mo tive, every pretext for division between England and us removed, and this germ of dissension--very weak, it is true, but which the passions endeavoured to revive—wholly extirpated. It is an event by which every body gains, an d nobody loses : and this will certainly be the ease whenever the interests of legitimacy shall blend with the interests of the age dint which is in the nature of both. • (From the Gazetie de France, dated Sept, 8.) BUCHAREST, AUG. 18.—Though the accounts from Constantinople agree in affirming that the Porte persists in the principles of its declaration, and that the ultimatum of the three Powers will be rejected, ?ilany persons think that the Divan intends to wait till the moment of executing the measures resolved upon, and that it may then accept the pro posals of pacification. FRANKFORT ' SEPT. 3.—A. courier from Lisbon has arrived at the office of Foreign Affairs at Vienna, and a report has been immediately spread, that Don Miguel would remain but a very short time longer at Vienna, and would set out for Portugal as soon as he had paid a last visit to the Emperor. That Prince will not go by way of England, as has been said. It is said that the loan which Austria intended to contract for is finally determined, and that it will be for 30,000,000 to 40,000,000 of florins. BERLIN, Auc. 30.—A1l the private letters from Russia speak of great movements of troops in that country. It is even affirmed that a levy en nause of the Don Cossacks is contemplated. The second army (that of Count Wittgenstein cantoned in Besse- , rabia) is reported to have received orders to be in • y, readine.;,:s to march. Whatever there tray be in eac h of thes `report t4lcen it is certain, add se aratel the letters, that all those p mew.ures indicate warlik e dispositions, which some persons ascribe to the ill success of tile war with Persia. (F ro m the Constitationnet.) MADRID, AUG. 2 7. 7 -All our Mi n i s t er s, w ho had set out for La Graiija on the night of Friday and Saturday last, and who ought to have returned here yesterday, did not arrive till to-day. There was held on Saturday, tit eleven o'clock, a Cabinet Council, at which the King presided, and at which the Duke de San Carlos was present. That Council continued its sittings till nearly two o'clock, which is the most extraordinary, as his Majesty, who never puts off his dinner hour, regularly dines at half-past one, The result of this extraordinary consultation, is the despatch of three couriers extraordinary, which took place this morning at ten o'clock—one for Lisbon, another for Paris and London, and a third for Barcelona. A fourth will start to-morrow morn ing, or on Wednesday night, for Dresden and Vi enna. M. Gonsalez Salmon, Minister of State par interim. was accompanied to the palace by the Baron de Castiel, the chief clerk in his office; and these two diplomatists have written with their own hands, at La Granja, all the despatches which were sent off to-day, after having had successively an interview with Mr. Lamb, the English Minister, and M. de Beaurapaire, the French Charge d'Affaires. The Apostolical Junta, availing itself of the fa vourable opportunity presented by the insurrection in Catalonia, has presented to .his Majesty a new petition for the re-establishment of the Inquisition. It appears that a sagacious adviser has presented to the King, that to concede to its prayer would pro duce no other result than to render the whole of Eu rope, and two-thirds of the population of Spain, in disposed to the interests of his Majesty, and to re store to the Inquisition its immense revenues, which are at present in possession of the Government. The King resolved on Friday to meet this petition with a refusal. From this refusal all the ridiculous and criminal reports have arisen of his Majesty's inten tion to abdicate, to retire to Saxony, &c., to say no thing of the other absurdities which the party, whom this refusal has disappointed and irritated, has had the audacity to propagate to avenge itself with a too credulous public. The Lieut.-General Marquis de Campo Sangrado, who was infssrmed only 12 days ago by the Minister at War ant: he would have on 26th inst. 10,000 men at his disposal, has just been dismissed from his office of Captain-General of Ca talonia, where he was adored,. His command has been given to Lieut.-General Caro, brother of the late Marquis de la Romana, who passes from the Captain-Generalship at Madrid to the same com mand at Barcelona. The command which Gene ral Caro had in the capital and in New Castile has been given to Lieut.-General Carvajal, whose office of Inspecting-General of the Royalist Volunteers of the kingdom has been given to M. de Villamill, who, from Colonel of the Royal Volunteers of Madrid, has been promoted to the command of all the Royal volunteers in Spain. The Constitutionnel also contains a circular from M. Calomarde to the Archbishops and Bishops of Spain, and also to. the Prelates of the monastic orders, requiring them, each in their respective places, to recall to their accustomed duties those of their flock who may have been deceived into insur rection in Catalonia, for fear that foreign journalists take occasion, from the existing disturbances, to calumniate the Catholic clergy, and to bring into disrepute the institutions which govern Spain with so much happiness. The circular also calls upon the members of the priesthood to present themselves in the ranks of the insurgents, in order to snake them sensible that the cause which they are defending is the cause of the enemies of God and of, the King, or, which amounts to the same thing, the cause of the Constitutionalists.' It concludes by calling on the priests to meet the rebels wherever they may be, to preach to them the duty of submitting to the legitimate authorities. After giving at length the text of this circular, of which we only state the substance, the Constitution nel proceeds :—As the reverend persons to whom this circular is addressed are the very persons vrho originally excited and still foment this insurrection, they will answer this circular as shall seem best to them in their ghostly wisdom, and God knows best in what style that will be. Many of them have al ready sent in their answers : some of them are drawn up vaguely—some present excuses founded on the infirm health of their writers, and others are written in the genuine spirit of monastic impudence, declar ing to the Government that it is indispensably ne cessary to yield to the requests of the insurgents for the re-establishment of the Inquisition, for the mas sacres of the Negroes, and of their protectors the English and French. It is impossible to discover the thread of this ravelled skein. Beyond all do ofe,7,:arid:3l:dittwrittaz; t e money, and tile resources, which excite the insurgents, come from that quarter. There was another battle on the 2.lst of this month near Barcelona. The insurgents were com pletely beaten, and lost 35 men. Many of them were taken prisoners. A worse fate than that which befel their brethren, who died hi the field of battle, is reserved for them. A Royalist volunteer has murdered another this evening in the street, by 14 stabs of a dagger. They quarrelled respecting the treatment which the King ought to display towards the Negroes. The Duke of San Carlos has, it is said, succeeded in deferring for some days the violent measures which were in agitation, in representing to the King that his journey from Paris to Madrid had a semi official character. He requested his Maesty to pay some regard to the desire expressed by all the Fo reign Ministers to see a system of government esta blished in Spain congenial to the spirit and intelli gence of the age. The last dispatches received from the Marquis Campo Sangrado state, that the chief of the in surgents is the Brigadier-General Ortufa, who was a member of the lirgel Regency in 1823. it has been proposed to give the command of the troops in Catalonia to General Manso, who is very popular among the inhabitants. He is to proclaim an amnesty to such of the rebels as are inclined to submit. A new band of Carlists has just appeared at Daroce; in Arragon, and another in the mountains of Ronda : this latter troop is said to amount to 300 men. LETTER FRO}[ M. EYNARD TO THE GREEK COMAIrisTEES OF FRANCE AND SWITZERLAND. PARIS, SEPT. 6.—Gentlemen,--I take the earliest opportunity of forwarding to you the following infor mation:— Count Viario Capo, d'lstria writes me from Corfu, on the Bth of August, The Greeks, on hearing of the signature of the convention of the 6th of July, have recovered their hopes, —the people are mad with joy : the spirits, however, of the Turks of Albania are proportionally depressed. The steam-vessel which left Zante on the 3d of of August, has brought us t h e o ffi c i a l desp atc h es of Lord Cochrane's capture of a corvette of 24 guns and a galliot.' Count Capo d'lstria adds— ' I have received the happy intelligence of the cessation of all disturbances at Napoli. I hope that punishment will be inflicted on the promoters of them.

All this information is 15 days more recent than that which was brought by Capt. Maillet. The French fleet has been signalled off Corfu : it will there join the E ng li s h squadron; and, at the end of August, these two fleets will steer to the Archipelag o . The Russian fleet, which started from Portsmouth with a fair wind, will not be long before it makes its appearance in the Archipelago. The moment of the liberation of Greece is ap proaching : still we cannot conceal that, under her existing difficulties, delays are to be apprehended, which are very alarming. If benevolence can make some further efforts, the succours which it would afford to the Committee of Assistance would be of essential use in supporting the Greeks until their destiny should be definitively settled. I can affirm with the almost certainty, that the three great Powers will see with pleasure this last sacrifice made to humanity. I have the honour to be , &c.

We have devoted a considerable space of our paper to-day, to extracts of the French Papers of Friday, and the Gazette de France, dated Satur day morning. The long article in the Moniteux, on the nomination of Don MIGUEL to the Re gency of Portugal, by the Emperor Don PEDRO, leaves little doubt of a fact which we have hither to been unwilling to believe. The character of that Prince, and of the party by whom his cause has been supported, will not allow us to enter tain any strong expectation, that under any guarantees which can be required from him the liberal principles of the Constitution will be pre served. The name of the Charter may be con tinued, but its spirit will not long survive if Don MiGuEr. is actually to be Regent of Portugal. We shall abstain from further remarks until we are in possession of more facts relative to this important event. • - frfnn Berlin coaltrat all the I oirrief — liitailigence which had reached us of the extraordinary military preparations which Russia is making. Whether they are in tended to be directed against the Porte or Persia—or against both, is not mentioned, but they appear to be of a gigantic nature and ominous of extensive operations. Even a levy of Cossacks is spoken of as probable.

The Duke of Kent packet has arrived with a mail from Lisbon, from whence she sailed on the 19th of August. The Lisbon Gazettes of the 16th, 17th and 18th, which have reached us by this opportunity, contain no news, but we find in them the four decrees which we had heard of through the French Papers, dismissingthe Bishop of ALGARVE from the office of Minister o f Ecclesiastical Affairs and of Justice ; and SENIOR NORONHA from that of Minister of Marine ; and confiding the duties of the first office to SENHOR CARVALHO, Minister of Finance, and those of the second to Viscount SANTAREM, Minister of the Interior. The following article from the Paper 0' Por tuguese, of the 18th of August, mentions that the master of a schooner, which had arrived in fifty two days from Sanctos, saw Rio de Janeiro Papers to the 15 th June, which contained the EMPEROR'S Message to the Chambers, inform ing them of the necessity of his proceeding to Portugal, and the consent of the Chambers to his MAJESTY'S absence for two years. LISBON, Auc. 17.—The Prndente Jose do F O Pte schooner anchored to-day in the port, in fifty-two day! from Sanctos, which port it left on the 23d of J"ne• It appears that the Captain, before he sailed, saw Journals of Rio de Janeiro to the 15th of June, and among them which mentions the Message of his Majesty to the Cham bers, informing them of the necessity of h is coming to t en -aa i is. Europe to regulate the affairs of Portugal. t se ms that at his Majesty's absence will he for two y e ars, and tha t the Chamber, the h m assentedo men-of--war, to r I and Prehpl they three months. E ver y thi ng i n duces as to b elieve that h is board Preparations wer e making on : in provisions for Majesty, sensible of the situation of Portugal, perceives the necessity of his presence to calm all parties and dispel all differences. Accounts f rom B ar celona to the 30th o f August state that the Marquis CAMPO SA GRAD() had i ssue d a P roc l a mation to the Cata lonians, in which the KING grants them an amnesty, while at the same time the Minister at War accompanies it with a decree to:the follow ing effect. First—that if, on the first intimation made by the General and Officers of the Troops,' the Rebels do not submit at discretion, they are to be shot. The second article says that—all those who join the Rebels shall also be punished with death : and this merciful proclamation is signed by ZAMBRANO. The whole thing appears so perfectly Irish, that we do not know what to make of it, and we are sure that those for whom its pacific provisions are intended, will be still more puzzled than ourselves. First grant an amnesty, and then, in the same breath, add that if you do not surrender at discretion you will be shot, is something like telling a man to jump overboard, and if he refuses, assure him that he will be drowned. We received, last night, Brussels Papers to the Bth instant, of which the following are ex tracts. By the article from the Austrian Ob server, it appears that serious tumults had taken place at Napoli di Romania, for the possession of the Forts, in consequence of the discovery of some plot to deliver up Napoli to IBRAHIM PACHA, which Gen. CHURCH had discovered. This is the first intimation which has reached us of the existence of such a plot, and we hope, for the honour of human nature, and the character of the Greek nation, that there may not be any foundation for the report : _ VIENNA, Auc. 29.---The Impartial Observer of Ist August announces, that serious tumults had broken out at Napoli di Romania, for the possession of the forts, espe cially of Fort Palamidi, after the plot to deliver up Napoli to Ibrahim Pacha had been discovered by Gen. Church.* The parties were ready to COMO to blows when General Church arrived on the 9th, at the head of the adherents of the Provisional Government, and required Coletti and the brothers Griva to deliver up the fort Atrim. He demanded the arrears due to their troops, and the Government an swering it had no money, the Suliots declared that they would keep the forts till they were paid, and if they were attacked would repel force by force. General Church, after some further attempts, seeing the exasperation of the two parties to be so great, left the town. The Government declared the Suliots and the leaders both traitors, and returned to Biortzi, a small island at the entrance of the harbour, with a fortified tower, which is commanded by Palamdie. On the llth the forts began to fire, and continued till the 16th, spreading terror among the inhabitants of Napoli, who crowded to the gates to escape death, but were all scandalously plundered before they got out of the town. Colocotroni, the father, is said to have been compelled to pay a large sum. Those who attempted to escape by sea, were plundered by the troops of the Government at Bnrtze, which so enraged the English Admiral, Sir C. Codrington, that he sent the boats of the Asia to put a stop to these robberies, and declared he would level the fort with the ground, if the boats, with the fugitive wo men, were not allowed to pass unmolested. At length, the Chief of the Suliots, the members of the Government, and Lord Cochrane himself, had a meeting on board the Asia, when a suspension of arms was agreed to, and the Suliots are to retain their plunder as part of their arrears ; the Government is to endeavour to discharge the remaining claims as soon as possible; after which the forts are to be given up to the Government troops. The inhabitants of Napoli are encamped on the plains of Argos, where they suffer very great distress. General Church has returned to Egina, whence he meant to go to Corinth, which was threatened by Ibrahim Pacha. It is said he did sail for that place, on the 17th, with 5,000 ' Men. Fabvier .'ant, for a short time, to Napoli, to offer his mediation ; but returned, on the 16th, to Mithana, where he had 1,000 men, whom he exercises daily. Mithana, in consequence of tt►e good goveromeus of the_ Colonel. _ in well t cultivated,' nod ban a numerous population, not languishing in misery as in the other parts of Greece. The contribu tions which be orders are paid regularly. Alithana is now the only place in Greece where there is some order, disci pline, and prosperity. The Colonel appears resolved to establish himself in the Peninsula, as he is contently adding to the fortifications. He seems also to refrain from taking part in any thing ordered by General Church, who does not enjoy much confidence. Gun-boats are building at Poros on the plan on Lord Cochrane, and the entrance of the harbour is being fortified. Miaulis, in consequence of a dispute with Lord Cochrane, has left the Hellas, and re sumed the command of his own brig. --Austrian Observer. VirwriA, Ana. Highness Prince Trautman , . dorff died last night, at nine o'clock. He is universally respected, and there is but one opinion of the difficulty of tiuding a successor. BRUSSELS ) SECT. 7.--His Royal Highness the Prince of Orange, accompanied by his Aide-de-Camp, set out this mulling, at teu o'clock, for the camp at St. Omer. Baron Faze' also set out this morning early for the same place. We received this morning Dutch Papers to the 9th inst. Hamburgh to the sth, and the Austrian Observer to the 30th ult. It appears that the King of SWEDEN has at length relaxed in his taciturnity, and vouchsafed a gracious answer to the Deputation from the Storthing, congratulating his MAJESTY on the birth of another scion of the Royal stock ; but the KIND at the same time takes the opportunity of re• minding the Deputation that the Storthing have not behaved themselves so patriotically as his MAJESTY could wish, and as their own sense of duty ought to have taught. However, when they next meet he promises, with a civil threat, that they shall become better acquainted, by each party understanding the extent of its respective duties. The news from Greece, left Lord COCHRANE at Syra, levying contributions in the shape of a loan ; but before he could get one-half his de mand, his Lordship was suddenly induced to take his departure, in order to settle the disputes which had broken out at Napoli di Romania :-- HAMBURCH, SETT. 4 The Norwegian Diet sent a deputation to the King, to congratulate him on the birth of the Duke of Upland. " We look forward," said the address, " with confidence to the future, and hope that the young shoots of the noble r o y al stem, will become flourishing trees, thus bidding d efiance b sh s a s d in e gs th o e f inhabitants civilisation, liberty, the , liberty, t to Peninsulastorms, will n under enjoy whose leythe and virtue." His Majesty returned a gracious answer to the expres sions of loyalty anti attachment, and observed that their future happiness depended on the strict observance of the Constitution which he had given them, and which he did not repent of having given. He had on many occasions shown his regard for the public guarantees, and thought that gratitude would be the result. " I have, therefore," says his Majesty, " observed, not without surprise, some resolutions of the Storthing, which do not appear to be wonsistent with the fundamental law, voluntarily granted for the advantage of the nation. I shall non have an op portuny to convince myself of the sentiments of the Storthing ; those of the nation I already know, as well as the duties which they impose upon me." We learn from St. Petersi,urgh that the Emperor of Russia expressed himself extremely satisfied with the situa tion of the colonies of Novogorod ; that agriculture flou rishes without neglecting military discipline. News was received at Odessa on the 12th August, that a fleet of at least eighty merchantmen had sailed from the channel of Constantinople, bound for Odessa and Taganrog. Accounts from Berlin say that Baron Strogouoff, who was Russian Ambassador at Constantinople in 1821, has It does not appear what plot is meant; about a month ago a correspondence between Coletti andtheicitgo of Redschid Puha was mentioned in the papers. been ordered to repair to St. Petersburgh. He is nor at where he will remain some time. VIVNITA, AUG. 29. The Impartial Observer of Smyrna, of the let of August, has a letter from Syra of the 22d of July, which says, " Lord Cochrane left us a few days ago, after having given orders that a sum of 40,000 Spanish piast res should be ready for him, under the name of a loan, a term used as a cloak for the extraordinary, contribution imposed on the island. He had at length agreed to be content for the present with 20,000, which would have been pvid him, had he not sailed all on a• sudden, in consequence, of the arrival of a courier from Napoli, with news tha Griva and Coletti, who are in possession of fort Palatnides, would not ebey any authority, and that the city was iu great danger."--(Here follows an account of the transactions at Napoli, coinciding with that we gave before.) Dr. Bailly, who during his stay in Greece, bas so honourably distinguished himself by his generous care of the sick and unfortunate, is said to be on the point of re turning to his own country. Colonel Washington, Deputy of the North American Philtellenic Committee, is said to have died, in consequence of the severe wounds which he received during the late tumult at Napoli. Sir E. Codringten arrived in the Asia, on the 24th of July, at Smyrna, awl was saluted by the ships of war of the several European squadrons. It appears that the English division for Smyrna and the Archipelago, is to consist of the Asia of the line ; the frigates Cambrian, Seringapatam, Talbot, and Glasgow, and a number of corvettes and brigs.

MESSINA, AUG. 18.—An English brig of war has just taken to lilac& a Greek brig, with a quantity of British manufactures on board, which have been claimed by some of the merchants. M ONTRULL , AUG.

Several gentle men in carriages were in waiting to form part of the caval cade. Major Gregory, with his well-appointed corps of cavalry, met his Lordship, and forming en either side of his carriage, escorted him into town at a guard of honour, the carriages of the gentlemen who went to meet his Excellency, following. On reach ing the Masonic Hall Hotel, his Lordship was re ceived by a party of the 71st Highland Light Infantry, the soldiers presenting arms and the band playing God save the King. A great number of people who had assem bled together, greeted his Excellency with loud cheers.--. Captain Bethune's corps of Riflemen lined the hall of the Hotel, and presented arms as he passed through.— Never did he meet with a more cordial or :gratifying reception. A number of the citizens of Montreal were anxious to give his Lordship a public dinner, and waited upon him to know when to fix a day which will be convenient ; his Lordship was pleased to say he would be happy to receive the attentions of the citizens of Montreal, but he most decline for the present what would at a futur e period afford him much pleasure to receive. He felt much d on isp t l l a ie y obliged to the good citizens for their hospitable intentions .
