RUSSIAN ACGUESSION. portance than the whole empire she had in Europe before that time. These are facts which rest on no doubtful evi dence, yet they are such as may welt startle every thinking man who has not previously reflected upon them ; and such as no one who desires to reason on the present state of Europe or Asia ought to disregard." Every portion of these vast acquisitions, except perhaps that in Tartary, has been obtained in opposition to the views, the wishes, and the interests of England. The dis memberment of Sweden, the partition of Poland, the con quest of the Turkish provinces, and of those dissevered from Persia, have all been injurious to British interests ; and though some of them have found favour for a time, and for a price given at Vienna and Berlin, even the kingdoms that have shared her spoliations can now regard them with no other feeling than alarm." " The power and resources of Russia lie in the countries to the west of the Volga, not in the wilds of Siberia ; and her empire in Europe has been nearly doubled in little more than half a century. In 64 years she has advanced her frontier 850 miles towards Vienna, Berlin, Dresden, Mu nich, and Paris ; she has approached 450 miles nearer to Constantinople ; she has possessed herself of the capital of Poland, and has advanced within a few miles of the capi tal of Sweden, from which, when Peter I. mounted the throne, her frontier was distant 300 miles. Since that time she has stretched herself forward about 1,000 miles towards India, and the same distance towards the capital of Persia. The regiment that is now stationed at her furthest frontiers on the: western shore of the Caspian has as great a distance to march back to Moscow as onward to attack on the Indus, and is actually further from St. Peters burgh than from Lahore, the capital of the Seiks. The bat talions of the Russian Imperial Guard that invaded Persia found at the termination of the war they were as near to Herat as to the banks of the Don ; that they had already accom plished half the distance from their capital to Delhi ; and that therefore, from their camp in Persia, they had as great a dis tance to march back to St. Petersburgh as onward to the capi tal of Hindostan. Meanwhile, the Moscow Gazette threatens to dictate at Calcutta the next peace with Eng land, and Russia never ceases to urge the Persian Govern ment to accept from it, free of all cost, officers to discipline its troops, and arms and artillery for its soldiers, at the same time that her own battalions are ready to march into Persia whenever the Schah, to whom their services are freely offered, can be induced to require their assistance. " Greece is taught to believe that its tranquillity can he assured only when it shall be a Russian province ; Prussia purchases forbearance by acquiescence in the views, and even the caprices, of the Emperor ; hostile restrictions are directed against the commerce of England, and her empire in the East is only threatened with attack. In the wilds of Tartary, on the East, and on the West of the Caspian, on the North, and on the South of the Black Sea, in the centre of Europe, on the Baltic—everywhere we find her a successful and persevering aggressor. With a larger extent of territory than ever before was subject to one Crown, she thirsts insatiably for more, and studiously directs all her energies, not to the means of improvement, but to further acquisitien. " if we find that a Government has for more than a cen tury steadily pursued an important object through many successive reigns, and has sacrificed about a million of its subjects, and an enormous amount of money in efforts to attain that object—if year after year we find it renewing these efforts and accumulating means to effect its purpose —if we find it steadily advancing towards 'the same end, and resorting to the same means, it is impossible to doubt that it continues to entertain the same views ; and if it dis avows them, it should show by acts, and not by words only, that its policy is changed. Such is the position of Russia in relation to all her neighbours—such are her views and her objects." I know not who the author of this work may be, perhaps the same individuals who published in 1834 a similar pro duction entitled England, France, Russia, and Turkey, and which attracted at the time great and deserved atten tion ; but, be that as it may, he brings before us a plain, unvarnished statement of facts ; the deduction from which is plain to the dullest comprehension, and not a little startling to every thinking Englishman interested (and who amongst us is not ?) for the honour and prosperity of this glorious country. Such men as Mr. Joseph Hume, indeed may consider the loss of our richest colonies, or even the national hoaour itself, a matter of minor consideration, when compared with the saving of a few pounds. But these are not Englishmen.—l am, Sir, J. C. W. (From the Times.) As the onward march of Russia to a military supre macy over both Europe and Asia has at each of its successive stages called forth from all surrounding countries expressions of displeasure and surprise, it may be wondered at why such frequent symptoms of anger should have confined themselves to mere words, and why so many powerful Governments and warlike nations as form the great commonwealth of Europe should never have resorted to more effectual means of administering some check to the encroachments of a public offender. The cause may be in part the skill and dissimula tion of Russia in preparing the success of her schemes before she attempts their execution ; partly her having inspired into the military States most contiguous to her own frontier the delusive sense of something like a common interest with herself in the perpetuity of that gigantic wrong which she had originally seduced them to perpetrate against the Polish race—a wrong from which Russia has contrived to draw an hundred times the advantages that have accrued to either of her guilty colleagues ; partly the distance between the scenes of her political aggressions and the great foci of opinion in the west of Europe—viz., the French and British capitals ; but lastly and chiefly the artifice, at once audacious and insidious, which she has of late years played off against the credulity of the continen tal Governments, in persuading them, first, that their just and only object of alarm was the infectious prin ciple of revolutionary democracy throughout Europe ; second, that it was a principle to be efficaciously or prudently repressed by general combinations of all Ca binets against the popular movements of each separate country. The purpose of Russia in fixing almost ex clusively the attention of other Governments upon this phantom of her own upraising has been pointedly de nounced on more than one occasion by political writers both in France and in this country, but unaccountably, disregarded by those—to wit, the Governments—by whom it was of most importance that it should have been watched and frustrated. The result is, that Russia has hitherto accomplished every aggressive design which she undertook through the application of military power, and has, by a sys tematic and subtle diplomacy, so far advanced towards the completion of her remaining plans, as to leave but a small arid easy portion of them to be finished by a recourse to arms. Still, however, the question is not satisfactorily an swered, why no serious effort has yet been made to meet the adverse march of Russia by a vigorous develope ment in the west of Europe, either of national opinion or of physical power ? There is sometimes a fashion in these things. Phrases, vague though imposing, are employed by persons who exercise some influence npon other minds, and possess a sort of following in the minor political world or in society. These phrases, again, arc often paid. for —paid for by those who have a direct interest in their circulation, such as foreign Governments, who pension a certain class of writers to betray the security and honour of their native country ; and here let us affirm, in earnest.language, that we mean no insinuation disparaging or disrcspectful to the daily press of Eng land, where, we trust, it would be difficult, if not im possible, to find a puMic journal base enough to sell its country for Russian gold. But there are other ve hicles of fraud and falsehood beside newspapers. We have heard speeches made, we must not say where, only to be explained on grounds indicative of the most cor rupt subserviency in the speakers to views which were not English. It is at the same time certain that of or stupidity, or the temporary purpose ot an inefficient Minister, may set going a notion about a foreign State, which creeps into use and affects opinion, through the growth of mere laziness, and habitual repugna:lee to investigate the truth, because of the trouble which it costs us. The pet fallacy respecting Russia, whieh appears to have ripened into a maxim with many people, and to be encouraged by others for sinister ends, is, that ". she is intrinsically an unwieldy and feeble Power, and that she suggests no reasonable subject of alarm." The maxim is not of yesterday. It is not of Lord Palmerston's invention, although it may have some times helped him out of a scrape. Nor was it invented by the Whigs of Mr. Fox's time, when, with the per fidy of a recreant faction, they actually sent a secret negotiator to St. Petersburgh to counteract the patrio tic efforts of Mr. Pitt, who would have deterred th wicked Catherine from seizing Oczakow from Turkey. But still it is a common-place expression, which long use has countenanced—a course of apparent apathy with regard to Russia, assumed by Ministers who held her in real terror. The cry that there was " nothing to fear fi . om Russia," has been taken such advantage of by that dexterous Power, that under the shade of it she has moved from one point of aggrandizement to another, until at last there is every thing to fear from her. It is from this same pusillanimous assumption of indifference in other States that Russia has progres sively got on to be almost careless whether we dread or disregard her. We have been so long satisfied with crying " who's afraid ?" that she has at length taught the stoutest of us to tremble for the result of her forth coming enterprises. A series of publications, all exhibiting more or less of the artful plots and formidable means of Russia, have been submitted to the people of England within the last two or three years. They all deserve conside ration, and would have received a good deal more, had not the anxieties of all men in this coui;txv been so engaged by questions affecting the existence of our own institutions as to leave the Russian Aut(Zrat almost an open field for the unmolested prosecution of his most unwarrantable projects. A letter in this day's Times, signed "J. C. W.," refers to a pamphlet, entitled Progress of Russia in the East, to which we invite the serious notice of our readers ; and if he be not afraid to look a pressing danger in the face, the attention of Lord Palmerston is yet more peremptorily called to it. As for Lord Durham, we really fear that he is, as he has before been, too much overpowered by the hollow flatteries of the Czar to leave his natural good sense and love of country room to act with freedom. We shall soon return to this subject, of which we warn all sound Englishmen not to lose sight. TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES. Sir,—Allow me to draw the attention of your numerous readers to a pamphlet recently published by Murray, entitled " Progress and Present Position of Russia in the East," in which her career of aggression is historically traced, from the first establishment of a lino of posts from the Volga to the Don, by Peter the Great, down to the treaty of Hoon kiar 'Skelessy ; which has transferrtA to the most ambitious and unprincipled Power in Europe the right to shut the Dardanelles and Bosphorus against the ships of war of every other nation ; enabled her totally to exclude them from the commerce of the Black Sea ; and then, in the event of a war with any of the maritime Powers, reducing Turkey to the condition of a frontier fortress, for the protection of her fleet at Sevastopol. The great mass of people in England are accustomed to think but lightly of the acquisitions of Russia in the East, and fancy that she is merely engaged in reducirr , to a state of comparative civilization a few wandering hordes of plun dering Tartars ; and that, whatever ext ent of territory she may nominally acquire, it is but a trifling consideration com pared with th e b ene fit thereby conferred on the neighbour in.. nations. This is a fatal error. Let su ch read a nd ponder well' on the following extracts from the auilior's Concluding observations : " A reference to the map attached to the pan;phlet will show that Russia has advanced her frontier in every jiree tion ; and even the Caspian Sea, which appeared to pr.."' sent an impediment to her progress, she has turned to ad vantage by appropriating it to herself. It will be seen that the plains of Tartary have excited her cupidity, while the civilized States of Europe and Asia have been dismem bered to augment her dominions. Not content with this, she has crossed into America, and there disputes, in direct violation of her engagements to England, the right of our merchants to navigate the rivers that debouche on its western coast. It will be seen that the acquisitions sho has made from Sweden are greater than what remains of that .ancient kingdom ; that her acquisitions from Poland are as large as the whole Austrian empire ; that the territory she has wrested from Turkey in Europe is equal to the dominions of Prussia, exclusive of her Rhenish provinces ; and that her acquisitions from Turkey in Asia arc equal in extent to all the smaller states of Germany, the Rhenish provinces of Prussia, Belgium, and Holland, taken toge ther; that the country she has conquered from Persia is about ,the size of England ; and that her acquisitions in Tartary have an area equal to Turkey in Europe, Greece, Italy, a ad Spain ; and that the territory she has acquired within the last 64 years (since 1772) is greater in extent and im- The idea of " The Desultory Man " is original, and boldly worked out by Mr. James, who has ingeniously 1, oven into his main storF a series of episodes, embracing the lights and shades of existence, with talent worthy of Boc caccio, by the side of whose admirable stories those introduced in this novel would not be inaptly placed. CLOSE OF THE INDIGO SALES.—The Quarterly Sales of Indigo, which commenced on the sth inst., termi nated this day. 7,104 chests were brought forward, 994 of which had been up at former sales, and either bought in or withdrawn ; and the remainder, chiefly of the last year's crop. The qualities of the Bengal were chiefly g ood and good middling, with a fair proportion of fine, aid but little ordinary ; the Madras, chiefly middling and ordinary ; and the Kurpah and Bimlapatam, ordinary and very ordinary. The sales commenced heavily, and continued to the close without animation on the part of the buyers, who seemed unwilling to purchase, excepting at reduced rates ; on the other hand, the proprietors seemed unwilling to give way, and bought in a very large proportion at prices full as high as the July sales. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, OCT. 11.— There is but a moderate business doing in the Cotton Market to-day—the sales being about 1,200 bags. No change in prices. The Michaelmas Quarter Sessions throughout the kingdom commence on Monday next, and the annual revi sion of voters in the course of the same week. THE PRINCE OF CANINO'S MENIOIRS.—We are requested to state that the Memoirs of Prince Lucien Buonaparte, written by Himself, are now ready, editions in French and English, and may be had of the Publishers, Messrs. Saunders and Otley, Conduit-street, of their Agents in Dublin and Edinburgh, and of the Booksellers through out the kingdom. A forgery of the notes of the old Jersey Bank has lately been discovered ; and two Frenchmen charged with the offence have been committed for trial. Waterloo-bridge is the nightly resort of some of the most abandoned women of the vicinity, who insult pas sengers with every species of obscenity. It has long been impossible for any respectable female to pass over after c iok seithout insult. The pollee should exert themselves , to remove LPs nuisance. The Essex 'ounty balls are in futere to be under the control and maNigement of ladies, two beiwg appointed stewardesses for each. This plan has been adopted :n con sequence of the patronage of the " Lords of the Creation" not having proved as successful as necessary. We understand that there is a very considerable quantity of English oak timber waiting at this port to be forwarded to Sunderland, and that this is generally the case. The freight offered to take it there is 16s. per ton. Now this is a strong proof that in the most important article re quired in the construction of vessels we have a great advan tage over the first place in England for shipbuilding. We are not aware that Sunderland has any advantage over Hull to compensate for this disadvantage. Can our ship wrights point out any? The subject deserves enquiry, in volving as it does the interests of a large body of our indus trious townsmen.—Hull Saturday Journal. A LADY'S STUD.—The present complement of the stud belonging to the Russian Countess Orloff Tshesmensky is thirteen hundred and twenty Arab, Eng lish, and other racers ; the grounds attached to it amount to a thousand and eighty acres, and the number of grooms and labourers employed in it are four thousand three hundred and thirty-nine. The sum realised by the sale of horses is of considerable annual amount, and they arc sold not only on the spot itself, but in the regular mar kets both at St. Petersburg and Moscow. It lies near Broboto, in the province of Walonese, on one of the Countess's estates, called Chricooro, and was set on foot by her father in 1778. We understand that a commission of inquiry will issue into the laws and customs of the Stannaries in the county of Cornwall, and that Davies Gilbert, Francis Francis Barlow, and John Basset, Esc's., are to be nomi nated commissioners. It will be recollected that the Bill brought in on this subject at the close of the last session occasioned some opposition. Lord Lyndhurst in particular described it in strong terms as an attack on the purity and independence of the Bench, whereas the immediate object it had in view was to prevent the office of Vice. W,,:_rden being made a political one, and raised to a sta tion u, a level with the Judges of the land. Last e ;teek, while Lady Willoughby de Eresby was proceedin g t;;ein Drummond Castle to Crieff, in her car riage, she reco t ;_ised three soldiers of the 92d regiment, apparently much fatied and proceeding a short distance before her towards . tbe town. On approaching them, her Ladyship caused th 3 carriage; to be stopped, and kindly in quired of the soldiers to what regiment they belonged, how far they had travelled that 'lay, wharp they were going, &e., and on receiving satisfactory ens:.' L' s t.e 4 4 )er ques tions, her Ladyship was pleased to order their; !f.' co , t 0 P 4 e principal inn in the town, and call for their supper a hearty bowl of toddy. The soldiers, after returning their grateful acknowledgments to her Ladyship for her kind ness, proceeded accordingly to Mr.. it inn, where they soon learned that her Ladyship had been before them, and that nothing more was requisite but to sit down to an excellent and substantial supper, coupled with a flowing bowl of whisky punch.—Edinburgh Paper.—[How easy it is for the rich to do good, and make themselves beloved.] THE SUN, LONDON.:VIIURSDAI OCTORER 13, 1536. one would be justified in hoping that this deplorable war will speedily be terminated. The elections for Deputies to the Cortes have termi nated for this province. The same respectable individuals have been returned as at the last election, viz., Senor Zu rnalacarreguy (brother to the late Carlist chief, but quite opposite to him in politics and principle) and Senor Fer rer ; the latter, it will be recollected, was offered the Mi nistry of Finance after the proclamation of the Constitu tion, but declined. He is expected here on his way from France to Madrid ; he is a man of talent and influence. BAYONNE, OCT. 7.—Senor Llanos, of the Spanish Com missariat, arrived here this morning from San Sebastian. The object of his visit was to get cash for the drafts drawn on account of the Legion on the Madrid house of O'Shea, in pursuance of the arrangement recently entered into with the Government by Colonel de Lancey. lam sorry to say he has completely failed. Let it not, however, from this be conceived that the credit of the house of Shea is doubted, or that the good faith of the engagement under which the bills have been drawn is questioned. The fact is simply this :—There are now lying in the hands of one of the first houses in this city dishonoured bills on the Spanish Govern ment. Until these are taken up, it is determined by the merchants here not to lend themselves to the Government in any way. Of this resolution Signor Mendizabal was fully apprised, and it is singular no arrangements had been made to obviate the difficulty. This is the sole reason, I can assure you, that the drafts have been refused, and, if once removed, there will be no lack of money to be experienced. My information is derived from the principal of one of the first houses here, who assured me that on the old accounts being settled, Bayonne will cash drafts to any amount, on whatever house in Madrid the Government may select as agents. FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. FRANCE. PARIS, OCT. 10.-(SPAIN.) -The political alias of the provinces have received orders from the Minister of the In terior, in a circular dated 30th September, by which they are enjoined to proceed immediately to the mobilisation of the National Militia. A letter from Burgos announces that 4,300 Carlists had arrived at Torrela-Viga, who, it was said, were to undertake a new incursion into Galicia. The Memorial Bordelais says that M. Durou is entrusted with a very important mis- . sion from his Government. " This agent, who enjoys the entire confidence of his Government," adds that journal, " is to represent the Minister of Finance of Spain at a meeting of bankers at Paris, who have already determined certain conditions for pretty considerable advances to be made to the Treasury of Madrid, previous to the approach ing meeting of the Cortes." Serrano takes in Catalonia the place of Mina, who has solicited to be relieved from the command. His health, which hitherto caused much uneasiness, is gradually im proving ; and it is probable that by retiring from business for a time he may be able in the sequel to execute the emi nent functions of Inspector-General of all the Militia of Spain, which the Government has conferred on him. A letter from Ancona, of September 29, says, that the cholera had increased again since the 23d.

The civil war and the financial affairs of the country are two subjects which ought exclusively to occupy the atten tion of the Government. They form, indeed (and will never fail to impress this truth on the public mind) the two pivots on which all our social mechanism turns. Any other consideration, however interesting it might be at another period, would only serve to distract the attention from those questions which at the present moment ought entirely to absorb it. The rebels are every day extending the circle of the civil war, and it is necessary to deliberate exclusively on the means of defeating and destroying them in all points where they show themselves. The official Gazette pub lishes day after day excellent decrees undoubtedly, but we would rather have more action and less legislation, more of results and less of projects. The great purpose for which the Cortes have been convoked appears to us of secondary importance in comparison to the civil war, which is proceed ing under our very eyes. Let us first insure our existence; we can afterwards regulate it in the mode and the manner most advantageous for the public good.—Espanol. It is certain that Villareal has retraced his steps, and that Sanz is the chief who has gone towards the Asturias with three battalions. He is pursued by General Peon with a force twice the amount of his own. General Peon will not be able to effect his object without exhibiting the greatest activity. He must march rapidly and directly against the enemy, traversing the port of S.jos. It is only by such a course that he can get to Colombres before him, and have it in his power to dispute the passage of the Deva, and the road to the Asturias.—Eco. It is generally stated, that the remains of the band of Gomez content themselves with the occupation of different villages of Jaen, not daring to attack the capital, which is well defended by National Guards and troops of the line, previously cantoned at Carolina, and in the neighbouring parts. The movement of Gomez in the direction of An dalusia at first created great alarm in that part of the country. As soon as the first feeling of alarm had passed away, the whole of the population, imitating the example of the authorities, prepared for the engagement. Not only the National Guard, but a vast number of armed volunteers also, rallied under the banners of liberty. All the militia of Baza was assembled, forming a column of upwards of 2,000 infantry, and 1,500 cavalry. Granada is in a posi tion to sustain an attack, and after the measures which have been adopted, Gomez will be lost if he attempts aught in Andalusia.—Espanol. It does not appear to be any longer doubtful that the two . _. Portuguese battalions are approaching the Ebro, or at least taking up such a situation as will enable them to check any attempt which the rebel bands in the North might contem plate to make in Castile. It seems that the brigade of Leon is destined to come immediately to the Asturias. It is important that it should be at Oviedo before the arrival of the expeditionary band, which would then be forced to attack this division in front, whilst it would be closely pressed by our troops belonging to the reserve, or by those under the orders of the Commandant-general of the pro vince of Santander. The moveable National Guard, in the province of Madrid, is already clothed and armed, and will be reviewed to-morrow. So much activity is worthy of the _ . highest praise.—Eco. (Extract from a private letter, dated Madrid, October 3.) Never did the elections excite less interest than at the present moment. The Legislature of the 24th of October will be but coldly hailed by the public, if we may judge from the indifference which prevails while the selection of its members is being made. Madrid will choose its old re presentatives, with the exception of Mendizabal, who, it seems, will cease to be a candidate. His name on the list of the Deputies for the metropolis will be replaced by that of M. Gabriel Garcia, formerly Intendant of Corunna, and who occupies at present a very important place in the Finance Department. The late financial measures adopted by the Government have had as yet very little effect ; and it is to be appre hended that the Ministry, if M. Olozaga should be invited to form part of it, will adopt measures - still more rigorous. This candidate for the Ministry has just been named the Fiscal of the Tribunal of War. This is an offering given to his ambition ; but he will not be contented, it is believed, with a secondary position. He has an eye to a port efeuille, and every thing leads to the belief that he will obtain the object of his wishes. In this case, the tax-payers may expect some rude treatment. The preys, which is eminently progressive, will soon re ceive a new ally. The new paper, which will appear in four or five days, will bear the this of the Tribune. Its principles will be those of democracy, but the very small esteem in which its editors are held in Madrid does not hold out any brilliant prospect for it. M. Villiers's health has very much improved within the last two or three days. Wei: just been informed that M.M. Zayas and De Curtoys, the Spanish Charges de Affaires at Copenhagen and Berlin, have refused to swear to the Constitution, and have resigned their situations. SAN SEBASTIAN, OCT. 6.—1 have seen the extract of a letter from the Carlist chief Guibelalde, who commanded in the engagement of the Ist, to a friend of his in Bayonne, in which he says, " We have lost the flower of Guipuzcoa ; our loss does not amount to less than 1,200. Iturriza and Ibero have driven me into this diabolical situation by their precipitate language." This is an important confession, not only inasmuch as, from the admission of the Carlist General himself, the loss of 1,200 men is fully substantiated, but, also, it proves there is disunion among the Pretender's Generals. You may rely on the authenticity of the extract from Guibelalde's letter. - The victory gained by General Evans on the Ist of October, coming so promptly after the capture of so con siderable a portion of Gomez's troops at Villarobledo, must have a most discouraging effect on the factious. It would appear that since the latter affair the National Guards of the neighbourhood have taken about 700 more of the fugitives ; and that General Alaix has, at the request of the deputation of Cuenca, and of other authorities, dis tributed 500 or 600 of the muskets taken from Gomez among the inhabitants : -so that the arms intended to be used against the people are now placed in their hands for their defence.

THE HAGUE, OCT. 10.—We have received the Java Journals of the 25th and 28th May, which contain the following articles : " NOTIFICATION. " The Governor-General of Netherlands India, in Council, to all those to whom those presents shall come, greeting— " Notice is hereby given, that this day in the Council of the Indies, on a review of the existing regulations, it has been thought fit to order and enact, on and after the Ist day of June next coming, there shall be imposed on all woollen and cotton goods manufactured in the Netherlands, provided with certificates of origin, and imported in Ne therlands ships into Netherlands India, an import duty of 12i per cent., and on all foreign woollen and cotton goods from countries to the west of the Cape of Good Hope, under whatever flags, provided that they do not come from countries with which the Kingdom of the Netherlands is not on terms of friendship, an import duty of 25 per cent., the use of the erttrepot for both sorts of goods remaining free, as hitherto. " We hereby command all superior and inferior officers, justices, and officers, to see to the strict execution of these presents, without respect of persons. And that no person may be able to allege ignorance, these presents shall be posted up, and published in the usual manner, in the native and Chinese languages.

The Journals contain many particulars of the earthquake at Amboyna, at the end of last year, of which we have al ready given some account. The shocks, both at Amboyna, and the neighbouring islands, were almost all in the direc tion from north to north-west. The ridge of mountains on the coast of Hetoc, towards the pass of Baguala, had suf fered much, and it could be seen that large masses had been detached. The south and south-west sides of the island have not suffered much ; the shocks were generally preceded by a loud subterraneous noise, which continued for some seconds, and frequently gave the inhabitants time to fly into the open air. It seemed as if the place was threatened with total destruction ; the noise was like a heavy cannonade, the shocks, with short intervals, continued nearly two months. The heat had been for the last three months of the year very oppressive ; the mean height of the mercury in the thermometer being at noon, 82 degrees, 21 seconds, 84 minutes ; and by night, 75 degrees, 18 seconds, 45 minutes. It was imagined that there was an eruption of the volcano of the Benglu, but this was a mistake ; there was only a slight shock there on the Ist November, which did no da mage. Some damage was done to the churches and dwell ings in the islands Sapanoca and Harocko. DUTCH FUNDS—Asimapare, Our. 10. Money. Bills. Actual Debt, 9% per Cent 52% 5314 Ditto, ditto 5 per cent.

The greater number of the Grand Councils of Switzer land are already convoked for the purpose of electing the deputies who are to form part of the Extraordinary Diet, and of furnishing them with sufficient instructions and powers, as indicated in the circular of the Directory. If the correspondence contained in the journal L'Helvetie is to be credited, the following is the substance of the instruc tions which the State Council of the canton of Berne pro poses to give to its deputies :—" Ist. To maintain the resolutions adopted by the Diet on the 9th of September (relative to the affair of Conseil). 2. To explain to the French Government the motives which led to that reso lution on the part of the Supreme Federal authority. 3. In case this explanation should not attain the desired object, to endeavour to cause all dissension to subside by means of the mediation of a friendly Power. 4. To agree to all motions, conformable with the above instructions, which may be calculated to obtain a majority. 5. To take a part in all discussions and motions, the object of which shall be to defend the inde- pendence and security of Switzerland." On the other hand, the Helvetie states, " that it appears that the Executive Council of the republic of Berne will propose to the Grand Council to give to the Bernese deputation vague and unrestricted instructions, conveyed in pretty nearly the following terms :—The state of Berne will participate in any measure compatible with honour, having for its object the amicable termination of the difficulty with France." In reference to these instructions, the Helvetic accuses the Executive Council of betraying the national honour, and calls upon the Grand Council to choose men of energy as colleagues fer M. Tscharner, who is, in con sequence of his capacity of Avoyer and President of the Directory, one of the deputies for Berne in the Diet.— Journal des Debats. OPINIONS OF THE SWISS JOURNALS. The Nouvelle Gazette de Zurich considers M. de Mon. tebello's recent note to the Directory as equivalent, or very nearly so, to a declaration of war. The Ami de la Constitution, a Berne newspaper, ex presses a similar opinion. It recommends Switzerland to have recourse to reprisals, and adds, that in spite of the arguments of some sophists, there is not a single Swiss worthy of that name, and feeling the justice of his cause, who would not spurn the idea of humbling himself before a proud neighbour like that of the Government of France. The Eidginosse, the Republican, and Constitutional Suisse exhort their fellow-countrymen to resist the impe rious demands of France, and to place their hope in the goodness of their cause, and in the support they will doubt less receive from Providence. Our private correspondence from Switzerland represents the people, lately so peaceable, as exasperated in the ex treme, and ready to adopt measures of reprisal against French trade. The merchants of Geneva, St. Gall, Zurich, &c., immediately contermanded the extensive orders they had given for the end of the year. Lyons, and the country along the whole frontier, begin to feel the effect of the ir ritation created in Switzerland by the stupid measures no tified to the Federal Government. Even the Genevese, whose moderate opinions are well known, have joined the Radicals in condemning the pretensions of the Cabinet of the Tuileries. The Council of Geneva was unanimous in, that respect, and the C an t ons are d e t erm i ne d on ma ki ng every sacrifice to defend their independence. The Helvetie still persists in its opinion that the Diet will not consent to give France the required satisfaction. " The Federal Representative Assembly,' it says, " now on the point of meeting, will not degrade itself to such a degree, and thus betray the hopes rested in it by the na tion. The people expect a firm and dignified reply to the note of the 27th ult., and a declaration energetically ex pressive of the sense of our outraged dignity, and of a con viction that our rights have been shamefully violated. " We have bej menaced with an hermetical blockade, the executiar of which has even already commenced. Well, they create carry your threats of a blo c k a de i n to e ff ec t ; little alarm in the country. We shall not be the first to get tired of it." _ M.

This worthy citizen devoted his entire life to the welfare of humanity. It was at his suggestion that Pestalozzi took charge, at Stanz, of the education of the poor orphans, and having himself settled at Ban de la Roche with his family, in 1813, he be came the colleague of the venerable patriarch of that coon try, the late Pastor Oberlin.—L e National. TURKEY. CONSTANTINOPLE, SEPT. 21.—A note was last week delivered to the Porte from M. Boutenieff, the Russian Ambassador, in which explanation is demanded with respect to the present of a snuff-box lately made by the Sultan to Sefcr Bay, the Circassian Chief. Circassia, though in a state of rebellion against the Emperor, having been ceded to him by the treaty of Adrianople, the conduct of the Sul tan in so distinguishing an individual of that nation,: al though unauthorised and unaccredited by the Court of St. Petersburg, cannot, it is stated, be considered but as highly offensive and unsatisfactory. The Porte, in reply to the Russian Ambassador, has declared that the present in question not having come under its cognisance, it could give no further explanation with respect to it than that tha gultan having been, on more than one occasion, spectator of this individual's performances at the Okmeidan, it was most probably intended as a tribute to his skill in archery. This answer proves one thing at least, which is, that the Porte, under Russian auspices, is rapidly improving in diplomacy. M. Bouteniff seems to have forgotten that his own weapons may be wielded with very good effect against himself, and that while, under cover of the most friendly professions, he is undermining the Sultan by every means in his power, his Highness may, in his turn, with an equal show of courtesy, endeavour to countermine him in his own defence. The Russians completed the evacuation of Silistria on Sunday the 11th inst. The baggage and rearguard were seen in full retreat on the Wallachian bank of the Danube by the passengers of the Austrian steamboat who passed it on Monday. They have left behind a considerable number of guns ; but an English artillery officer who has visited the place since, has declared them to be of the worst de scription, and calculated to do more mischief to those who served them than to the enemy. The Emperor also caused a dilapidated mosque to be completely repaired. A French frigate, the Herminie, arrived here on Sunday, to convey Admiral Roussin to Marseilles. Mr. Ellis arrived here on Friday last from Taiteran, an sets out to London in a few days. BRAZIL. RIO DE JANEIRO.—(From the Correia Official, August 12.)—The Minister of Justice proposed to the Chamber of .Deputies, in the sitting of 9th August, some changes in the criminal law. The Minister adduced various instances of these horrible proceedings at Para, among which was the capture of the British ship Clio, the murder of the crew, and the plunder of the cargo. " The injured seek redress, which cannot be given them, because, if the guilty are tried in the ordi nary Court, they are certain of impunity. In the midst of so many difficulties, the Government, which has ma turely considered them all, desires to substitute for an ordi nary Court, swayed by such divers passions, another more equitable, just, and impartial, which may assert the rights of all, sends me to the National Representatives, to pre sent to you, as a matter of the most urgent necessity, the following proposal : Art. 1. Those who are implicated in the crimes of re bellion, sedition, and conspiracy, and in all others prac tised beforehand for the purpose of committing those crimes, and subsequently in consequence of them shall be proceeded against in. the following manner : The following Articles, 2 to 18, determine the manner of conducting the preliminary proceedings, the result of which (or the indictment) is to be communicated to the ac cused within 5 days, who are to be allowed the same term of 5 days to prepare for their defence. After this term is expired, the public trial is to take place, which shall com mence with the reading of the indictment, the interroga tory of the accused, the examination of the witnesses, the promotor or prosecutor shall speak in support of the accu sation, the accused shall defend themselves verbally, sen tence shall be passed by the majority of the Court accord ing to the laws, and in case the number of voters on each side be equal, the president shall have the casting vote. In another address the Minister proposes to alter the dispositions of the existing laws, which relate to the num ber of persons concerned in the commission of the crimes in question. Certainly it is the nature of the crime, and not the number of the criminals, that ought to be consi dered. According to the existing law, a number of 20,000 persons is required to constitute the crime of re bellion. In the case of most of these crimes, too, the present law punishes only the chiefs, as if all those who were actually concerned did not likewise merit punish ment. He therefore proposes to remedy these defects in the law, and to declare the crimes of conspiracy, rebellion, and sedition, shall be considered as having been committed in the cases already laid down by the law, whatever be the number of persons stated to commit them ; all of whom shall be liable to punishment. The chiefs, according to the existing laws, and others who, though not chiefs, have taken an active part, imprisonment and hard labour for different terms, from ten to two years ; and all the others to imprisonment for different terms, from two years down to six months. AUGUST 16.—The Correio contains the charter granted to the Company formed in London by Jaoa Diego Sturz, for the exclusive navigation by steam boats of Rio Doce. AUGUST 24.—The Correio contains a notice from the Minister of Finance, in which, after dwellin g on th e finan cial situation of Brazil, and the obligations which the Go vernment ought to fulfil, viz., 1. The payment of the ar rears of the loans in England ; 2. The payment to Portu gal to settle the current accounts ; and 3, the stability of the currency, and the supporting the rate of exchange— lie observes, that as the only means of procuring the neces sary money as a loan, he proposes a plan for contracting a national and foreign loan for two millions sterling at 5 per Cent. AUGUST 27 TO 31.—The Correio contains in 20 columns the beginning of a document of the Minister of Finance, relative to the currency. Despatches from the Governments of almost all the provinces represent them as tranquil.—Correio Official to 31st of August inclusive. AFRICA. (From the French papers.) A Toulon letter of the 6th instant - has the following : " The Jupiter has arrived from Oran with news to the 29th ult. Preparations were making f or an expe di t i on o f great importance. Th e arm y, includi ng the two battalions taken out by the Jupiter and the Arab auxiliaries, amounts to upwards of 15,000 men. The different corps of the expedi tion will pass the Cheliff, and, it is said, act in concert with the army under Marshal Clause', which is in the direction of Miliana. If, as every thing shows, the expedition against Constantine takes place at the same time, a tremendous blow will be given at once to Abd-el-Kader and Achmet Bey, the two principal leaders of the hostile Arabs. At the same time the news of the defeat of Abd-el-Kader by the tribes he has attempted to plunder is fully confirmed. A sin gular report is current at Oran. It is said that Abd-el-Kader who for some time has been compelling the tribes to con centrate themselves in the interior, has resolved to assemble them at three or four days' march beyond Mascara, and at the entrance of the Great Desert, where he will build a new town, having determined to withdraw and leave the country to France." We have received intelligence from Tangier which indi cates, on the part of the Government of Morocco, an in tention to keep its promises with France, and resist the in trigues of all kinds by which it is constantly harassed. A considerable contraband trade in warlike stores was lately carried on in the district of Calah-el-Oned, near the Beylick of Oran, by agents of Abd-el-Kader. The Government of Mequinez, on being informed of it, immediately took measures to put an end to the practice—the last resource of the Emir by which to procure the arms he still stood in need of, and to arrest his principal agents. Three corps of regular cavalry have, besides been stationed along the fron tiers, from Tezerga to Oudada, and along the adjoining coast, to guard the passages, and cut off all communication between the Arabs of those provinces and the Augad, which borders on the country of Tremecen. One of the first officers of the Emperor's household is specially °barged with this affair, and has orders to make a report on it to his Sovereign.—Courtier Francais. The ilioniteur Algerien, of the 80th ult., contains a decision, taken on the 26th, by Marshal Clausel, against a number of natives who had been arrested under charges of conspiracy against the French, and of keeping up a trea sonable correspondence with the enemies of France. Five of them are to be banished from Algiers, and three others were restored to liberty. According to the same journal, the arbitrary proceedings of Abd- e l-K a d er towar d s several tribes had created muc discontent among them, and the Flitahs, Oulecj Sidi-el- Aribis, and the Bordjias, had resisted his order to removo from the Minah to a distant place in the interior. A battle ensued between them and the forces of the Emir, in which the latter was defeated with considerable loss, and com pelled to retreat. --- Sir William Heathcote has invited the whole of his troop of Yeomanry Cavalry to dine with him next week, at Hurley Park.
