FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. PARIS, OCT. 15.—We remark to-day with pleasure, that a Journal, the doctrines of which, on corporations and social supremacy, we are often obliged to combat, begins to see that it will not be so easy to impose on Spain a system of government which is not agreeable to it. The .Joarnal des Difbats, far from being petulant, like the Drapeau Blanc and the Quotidienne, which are angry that war is not yet declared against the Cortes, complains " of that ignorant fanaticism which demands dangerous, and even impossible, measures." It desires that the Congress should not listen to the demands of fanaticism, which .neither calculates nor foresees. _ It is certain, as the Journal des Debuts very wisely observes, that the Congress of Verona will be very much embarrassed. The Spaniards are not quite so docile as the Neapolitans. Since they have busied themselves with their own affairs, they have learnt that there is neither honour nor security for a people deprived of in dependence, and they have found, in their gene ..rous hearts, that brilliant courage, that invincible firmness, which executed such great things in .the eleventh century, and were the admiration of Europe.. There would be much less embarrassment in diplomacy, if they would have recourse to the plain notions of common sense. It is with nations us with families they are never more tranquil nor happier than when strangers do not meddle with their affairs.—( Le Constitutionnel.) To day at four o'clock, afternoon, a Commis saire of Police, accompanied by a peace officer, on the requisition of the Procureur du Roi, pro ceeded to the office of the Constitutionnel to take possession of the paper of yesterday. This seizure is founded, as they say, on the article intitled " Mon Congres," which is contained in yesterday's number, and which is signed " De Pradt."—(Constitutionnel.) Two monuments are about to be erected ; one _at Savenay, and the other at Leger. The first is to be consecrated to the Vendeans who died at the battle of Savenay ; the other to the glorious memory of General Charette. It is quite na tural that such homage should be paid to fidelity -under a faithful Ministry. And let it not be doubted that we shall in a short time see a con secration of the place on which the blood of the Royal Martyr has been shed. Withi❑ the last five or six years a law has been proposed for the erection of an expiatory monument. The present Ministry will cause it to be carried into execution. —(Journal de Nantes.) ( Extract of a Letter from Poitiers of October 11.) " Since the execution of Berton, the report has been spread that the Knights of Liberty had carried away his body. The Magistracy has been easily able to ascertain the fact, and to give proofs of the contrary. From Thouars we have received ~ soma details concerning the last moments Of Jaglin and Sauge. " They had hardly arrived when the son of baug6, who had .tonne froniDoo, had an interview with his father. Both af fected a cold indifference for the terrible moment which was to separate them for ever. They caused old wine and brandy to .he brought them, and Saugd drank the health of the Ecclesias tics, and of the officers of the escort which had accompanied him. The two Ecclesiastics tried again to make Sauge re concile himself with-heaven ; he obstinately refused, but with vitt hardihood. " Sauge desired to bestow a little of his stoicism on Jaglin; but the latter, in whom early education had implanted better principles, again required to confess. After he had fulfilled this act of piety, Salle recommended him not to weep, and to .remember that an old soldier should go to death as gaily as to a marriage feast. Jaglin replied, lam as firm as you.' In fact, he never uttered a murmur. He asked pardon of God and the King, embraced the executioner, and cried Vive le Rol !' Vive la France !' before receiving the fatal stroke. " The last words of Salle to his son were another testimony ,of his disregard for life I leave you 4,000 francs rente,' said he ; lam not, therefore, a ruined man, as they pre tended.' " Arrived on the scaffold, Sauge said aloud, F Inhabitants of Thouars t I die for Liberty ; Vive la Republique !' his last word was ill understood, but he repeated it with effort before his death. " The fate of Jaglin has excited much interest. Sauge had taken care to shut all hearts against any pity for him."—( La QuoNdienne. _ - AUGSBURGH, OCT. 9.—We have received the -following letter : " Vienna, Oct. 4. " The Duke of Wellington will depart after to-Morrow for Verona. To-morrow he will assist at the exhibition of a grand manoeuvre of our garrison. It has been stated that he expected the arrival of a courier from London, before his departure for Verona ; at present it is said that the expected courier has ar rived ; and that after having consulted the English Ambassa dor at the Court of Austria, the Noble Duke has found himself authorised to comply with the pressing solicitations of the So vereigns, who required his presence at Verona. If a courier from London has arrived, he has not been able to bring an .answer to the dispatch which the Duke of Wellington sent from Munich on the 27th September, and which could be scarcely expected to reach London before the 4th of October." BounG-MADAME, OCT. 4.—The Cordon has just broken up. Scarcely had this news been made known, when the in habitants of the neighbouring Communes crowded in bodies to Yuycerda. Several of our military have also assembled there; they were received with fetes and rejoicing by the troops who • were quartered in that town. The Barracks have disappeared, as it were by enchantment, so great was the anxiety to remove all traces of the line of debarkation. LA TOUR DE CAROL, OCT. s.—Catalonia is literally peopled with robbers. In a short time it will be no longer pos sible to travel in that. unfortunate.country. A band of 16 men have even appeared above La boso, a mountain situated be tween Landorro and the Valley of Carol. The communications being at present open, it is to be desired that precautions should be taken on both sides for the safe!), of travellers. The residences for the Sovereigns and Ministers are now F.Ked, except thit for his Majesty the Emperor of Austria. They are— For the Emperor Alexander, the Casa Canossa ; the King of Prussia, the Casa Sarego ; the King of the Two Sicilies, the -Casa Emily; the Xing of Sardina, the.

Gazzola. GREECE. [From 'the Nuremburg Correspondent of Oct. ll.] FROM THE FRONTIER OF ITALY, SEPT. 30.—At length we have news from Greece and the neighbouring provinces as late as the fith of September, which is the latest date that any thing could have been received from those parts. Theyscon tain, it is true, only single statements, but these sufficiently prove the falsehood of the Turkish reports, which would have us believe that the Morea was again subject to the Ottoman Power. The following are the accounts we have received : From Venice, 22d September, it is stated that by accounts from Ragusa, the attempts of the Turks against Missolunghi, near which they had landed, thinking to take it by surprise, 'have wholly. failed ; they were forced to embark for P atras, where their chief strength is now concentrated. At the ap proach of the Greek ships, that part of the Turkish fleet which blockaded Missolunghi, by sea withdrew : the communication with that place, the importance of which the Turks so well 'knew, and to subdue which they had made such great prepara tions, is now quite open. The Greeks, however, confess that they were under great apprehension for that town, because the fortifications are inconsiderable, and the new works that have - been planned are still incomplete. Missolunghi, it must be observed, is the great military depot for the Greeks, where they have their magazines., arms, ammu /lition, and military stores.—Several Turkish corps had also ,penetrated to Arcanania and Etolia, having partly landed on the ,:coast, andiartly come from Arta ; but, by the united efforts of the Commanders, especially Prince Maurocordato, who has not l returned to the Morea, but remains in Western Greece, to orga nise plans of defence at Vrachori, in the central point of his operations, the Turks have been repulsed at all points, and suf fered great loss. This happy result induced the Suliots, who were really negociating with Omer Brione, to break off the ne gociations, and commence hostilities. They had never sub mitted to the Turks, as public papers have said. '1 he Turkish garrisons of Arta, Prevesa, and Parga, have however been much strengthened, and it will probably not he easy to take these fortresses. It is regretted that NI auroconlato has quarrelled with the brave German General Normana, and that the latter has withdrawn. Letters from Corfu of Sept. 8, say, " That the Greek fleet was off Cape Papas, and the Turkish fleet in the Gulf of Le panto, where it was blockaded by the Greeks. " The Greeks continue masters," says the same report, " of the Morea, with the exception of Patras, and are advancing anew through Livadia towards Thessaly. On the other hand, fresh Turkish troops are advancing from Macedonia, and strong troops from the Danube are to follow them. It is pro bable there will be some hard fighting in the south of Thessaly before the present campaign is ended, which will be in the middle of October at the latest, because the weather, the bad roads, and want of necessaries of all kinds make it impossible to prosecute military operations in that country. The Greeks, therefore, have but to make a few efforts 'more to be secure during the approaching winter." TRIESTE, SEPT. 30—The news of a naval victory gained by the Greeks in the straits of Bocca Silota is to day fully con firmed by letters from the lonian Islands, and by the arrival of several vessels, under different flags, from the Archipelago, which have entered the port of Trieste. The following are the further details of an affair, of which the consequences will be of the highest importance to the cause of the Hel lenians. The Porte had prepared a second naval expedition, which was to follow closely after the one destined for the Gulf of Patras, but which was not, however, to appear in the Archi pelago till the time when the Greek fleet should be in the lonian Sea. The Turks hoped by these means to place their enemies between two fires, and to revenge themselves at length for all the defeats they had suffered at sea. -Among the ves sels composing this second armament,was a ship of three decks, three frigates, and forty smaller armed vessels carrying eight thousand troops. The latter were to be put on shore on the coast of the Morea, and, to unite 'themselves with the army commanded by Chourschid Pacha, who was to pene trate by another route into the Peninsula. The squadron of reserve of the Greeks which had remained in the port of Hydra, informed of all the intentions of the Turks, far from going to the Gulf Patras, in pursuit of the first division of the enemy's ships only, got under weigh at the most favourable moment for attacking the second. Tho encounter took place in the Straits of Bocca-Silota, between 'lstegropont and Andros.— The Turkish fleet. entangled in a narrow channel, full of rocks and shoals, and attacked unawares, fought with disadvantage. Two frigates were grounded on the coasts of Chymi and of Cape Ore. The greater part of the transports were captured or sunk ; the rest of the squadron endeavoured, under all sail, to gain the waters of Tenedos, but were quickly pursued by the victors, and some more ships were lost which had escaped from the fight. Of all this armada, only the three-decked ship, one frigate, and nine or ten transports, re-entered the Dardanelles. The troops who boasted they would carry fire and sword into the Morea, . all perished except 2000, either the prey of fire, or drowned in , the waters of Bocca Silota. _ _ _ _ _ The plan of this expedition, well conceived, had been traced, it is said by the English, but the Hydriots did not enter into the snare that had been laid for them. The Turks believed themselves so sure of success, that several rich slave-merchants had embarked on board the transports. They expected to make an advantageous speculation by buying the prisoners and sending them into Asia. These merchants are themselves now prisoners at Hydra or Ipsara. The Turkish squadron of the first expe dition, which waited a month in the Gulf of Patras, has not been more fortunate in its operations—the plague has taken away a third of its crews, and the attacks it made on Misso longs were repulsed with loss.—(Le Courier Francais.) According to the news from Corfu of the 20th September, the city of Corinth has surrendered to the Greeks. On the other hand, a letter from Cephalonia, dated the Iflth of September, pretends that the fortress of Suli surrendered to the Turks on September 13. This proves at least that the news of this ca pitulation, which was announced by the Vienna Journals two months ago, was false. It is added, that 2,000 women and children of the Suliots have taken refuge in Cephalonia.— ( Journal des Debuts.) SPAIN. (Extract of a Private Letter from Madrid, Oct. 9.) " The assassination of Colonel Tabuenca, Colonel Velasco, and several other Officers of the Constitutionalists, has excited the most lively indignation in the hearts of all classes of Spa niards, and in all the Provinces. On this subject the Jour nal - of Saragossa has published, October 2, the following notice : " "The Colonel-Commandant D. Juan Antonio Tabuenca, Colonel D. Lucas Velasco, and several other Officers, who, after having contributed to the glory of their country, had fallen into the hands of the factious in the affair of Tolva, have been assassinated in the most atrocious and most barbarous manner. Since we are unable to remedy their misfortune, we ought at least to contribute to their eternal glory, by celebrat ing, in honour of these martyrs for their country, funeral celce monies, and by offering up the prayers of the Roman Catholic Church. For this purpose, I invite all my companions in arms, and other citizens of all classes, to make a subscription, the produce of which shall be devoted to this pious purpose. (Signed) " GREGORIO VALEN'rli.'" It would be difficult to express the profound sensation that this event has produced in all the cities of Spain, and particu larly in Madrid. In all the streets, and all the public places, groups of persons collect, whose intentions even give uneasiness to the Political Chief of the capital, who caused the following Proclamation to be published on October 6 : " THE CONSTITUTIONAL MUNICIPALITY OF MADRID TO THE HEROIC INHABITANTS. " Citizens—The Municipality has seen with grief, that as soon as the report was spread of the infamous enemies of liberty having assassinated, in a most atrocious manner, her valiant defenders, Colonels Tabuenca and Velasco, and the other courageous patriots who fell into their hands in the actions of Tolva and Benvarre, the public indignation was so much exasperated, that between eight and nine o'clock, different groups were collected near the Town Prison, in which the principal persons inculpated in the horrible conspiracy of the 7th July, against the benevolent Constitutional system which governs us, are detained. " The Constitutional Municipality cannot persuade itself that such assemblies had any intention of violating that abode of crimes, where the guilty are deposited under the safeguard of the law which in due time will execute on them its inexorable decrees. But its duty is to exhort all the true friends of the constitutional system to be on their guard against the counsels of perfidy, which seeks to take advantage of thejust exultation to which liberty gives birth in the hearts of patriots, to excite them to excesses which may disgrace our noble cause. The enemies of liberty are not asleep, they take a thousand disguises to attack her with impunity, and with more success than they have hitherto obtained. Let us avoid, therefore, every occasion for their Machiavelian intrigues. The law alone must punish the guilty, and those who attempt to usurp its rights over a criminal, with whatever motive they may cover ouch an usur pation, are unworthy of the name of Spanish citizens and of true Liberals. The law will pursue them as the enemies of society, whose rights they outrage, as the enemies of liberty, whose name they profane. " Inhabitants of Madrid, however guilty mAy be the enemies of the country, however atrocious the crimes they have com mitted against our brethren in opinion, let us remember that their crimes do not justify us in committing others—let us re member that policy, justice and interest prescribe to us at pre sent more than ever, to prove that our only aim is to respect the laws, while to violate them is the object of the factious. " Those who see with hatred and horror the liberty of nations, those who desire to perpetuate the slavery of Europe, those who detest knowledge and intelligence, are at present occupied with the means of reducing the human race to the state of degrada tion from which it has been drawn by the light of philosophy, and the heroic efforts of the men guided by it; the oppressors of the human race have no more convenient instruments than the factious who speculate on the march of political events, who change the direction of revolutions, and make them deviate from their aim, that they may not produce the salutary regener ation for which they are calculated. Mistrust such monsters, fellow citizens ;—leave them isolated and without support, and the Magistrates will pursue them with the laws. Thus public order will be preserved, which, in the present circumstances, is of the first necessity. " JUAN PALACRA, Political Chief, President of the Municipality. " FRANCISCO FERNANDEZ DE HARA, Sec." ( Le Constitntionnel.) PERPIGNAN, OCT. s.—The Spanish Courier of the day before yesterday has not yet arrived. Yesterday morning the garrison of Figueras was under arms and about to depart. The garrison of Gerona is to be put in march for the purpose of forming a junction with -the column of Milans at Orlot. There will be found united there a great number of Royalists. The troops of the Cordon Sanitaire are taking up their can- 1 tonments. This place, it. is expected, will contain three batta- lions. Yesterday a battalion of the 7th of the line, and a part of the 26th and 32d, arrived here. To-morrow the chasseurs of Vienna will replace the chas seurs of the Smite. The arrival of ammunition, &c. is not discontinued. The Army of the Faith have within a few days caused great quan tities of military caps, sabres, &c. to be purchased here.— ( Gazette (I' Urg el. ) SEO D'UnuEL, OCT. 3.—The Baron d'Eroles having re ceived information that the Adjutant.Generel Zarco del Valle, Military Commandant of Arragon, was marching on the Correa of Tremp with an army of from 4 to 5,000 men, infantry and cavalry, has quitted this fortress with his disposable troops, for the neighbourhood of Talaru, in order to oppose the march of that General, who no doubt will omit nothing to effect his passage.

Resolved—That should the Lower Long Sault, and Barn hart's Island be given up, it will in effect be surrendering all right to the free navigation of the St. Lawrence. Resolved—That a memorial be presented to the Governor- General, praying his immediate interference with his Majesty's Government, to prevent the ratification of the agreement en tered into by the Commissioners. QUEBEC, SEPT. 2.—As some doubts have been expressed of the accuracy of the statement relating to the population of Lower Canada published some time ago in the Gazette, we can state upon a second reference to the documents on that subject the number of 400,000 souls is somewhat greater than the actual population of the Province in 1821.

Letters have this morning been received from Frankfort, dated so late as on the 12th current, the contents of which are very satisfactory. The Austrian Metallic Fives had advanced thereto 86, in consequence of advices having been re ceived, that at the first meeting of the Holy Alliance, after the arrival of the Duke of Wellington, every thought of interfering with the internal policy of Spain had been abandoned. The Sovereigns will consequently have very little to do at Verona, —ltaly and Greece being the only quarters wherein at present their views of aggrandizement have any chance of success. The former is, however, already under the military occupation of Austria, and the Greeks having expelled the Turks from a con siderable portion of their territory, the subject remaining for dis cussion appears to be, whether that finest portion of Europe is to be governed in future by its Christian inhabitants, or whether it, like Poland, is to he divided among its more powerful neighbours. —The Frankfort letters state, that the views of the IfolY Allied Sovereigns are in every respect pacific, and hence has arisen the idea, that liberty and prosperity will be the natural conse quence to mankind, of the total failure of the attempt to main tain legitimacy at the expence of general improvement. The Turks, by their late edict against the use of every description of the superior qualities of British manufactures, will soon lose the friendship of those few British merchants, to whose interference they are indebted for the very small portion of public good opinion which they at present enjoy; and it will soon be universally admitted, that an empire of freemen in the Levant will add a strong and beneficent link to the chain of European society. A civilized nation of Chris tians in that beautiful portion of the earth, must become the natural allies of Englihmen, and the advantage of an ex change of commodities, necessary to the comfort and luxury of each, will soon be felt. The native land of science and of the arts may again take its just station amongst the nations of the earth, and to England future historian may perhaps attribute the restoration of Grecian grandeur. There is not one friend to the happiness of mankind, who will not hail the approach of a period which is to exchange barbarism for civilization, rob bery for the security of property, and true religion for Turkish pride and fatalism. The British Funds continue to improve in value, and their general appearance indicates a farther advance. Consols for the November account opened at 821 5, and a good deal of business was done, the price varying betwixt that and 825 4, at which the market closed. One defaulter was declared, but the loss is not very great, though hii operations have latterly been rather ex tensive. In Foreign Securities; the same bustle continues to exist, and, notwithstanding the great fluctuations which have latterly taken place in them, no lame duck has yet been publicly proclaimed. In the Spanish, as usual, the operations are the most numerous, although the prices both of the New and Old Bonds are rather lower. There is a heavy account to settle at the end of the month, which causes great caution amongst the speculators. The new Russian and Prussian Loans likewise find numerous purchasers ; and some transactions have been done in the Peruvian Loan, of which the Scrip was this day issued.

We have received the Paris Papers of Tuesday, and Frankfort Papers to the 11th, the chief con tents of which will be found in our preceding columns. The Constitutionnel, in giving an account of the arrest of Mr. BOWRING, furnishes no new parti cular, if we except its whimsical remark, that " the detention of Mr. BOWRING is so much the more rigorous, as it is said he suffers very vio lently from the tooth-ache !" Intelligence from Trieste to the 30th Septem ber, confirms the previous account of the brilliant naval victory obtained by the Greeks between Negropon and Andros. On land, the miser able wreck of the Turkish army which pene trated into the Morea had surrendered at Co. rinth. The Greeks, therefore, having so ra pidly freed the Morea from the presence of an enemy, would be able to march all their forces into Thessaly, and to recommence of fensive operations with great advantage. In another part of our Paper, we have inserted an eloquent appeal to the people of England, on behalf of Greece, by a young Grecian, to which we beg leave to refer our Readers ; and we heartily unite with 6C JUNEX" in his call upon the British Public, for its beneficent aid to the glorious struggles of a brave nation for their independence. No engagement of importance has as yet been fought in Spain ; but from the recent military operations, the news of a decisive action may be expected in a few days. FIZENCII FUNDS.—OCT. 15.

In our front page we have inserted the Report made to the Spanish Extraordinary Cortes by the Secretary at War.—This is an important and interesting document, and gives a condensed view of the state of Spain,as respects the dangers with which she has to contend, and her means of re sisting and recovering them. Great efforts and great sacrifices are avowedly required from the nation ; but the necessity which demands them is frankly admitted and circumstantially explained. Amongst the military measures recommended, is the increase of the army from 52 thousand to a hundred thousand men. We shall not attempt to give an abstract of the Report; but recom mend it to the attentive examination of our Readers. We yesterday had the pleasure of announcing I the arrival at Yarmouth on the l 6th inst. of Cap , tain FRANKLIN, Dr. RICHARDSON, and Lieut. BACK, gentlemen employed on the Land Expe dition' into the Arctic Regions, and we are favoured with the following particulars from an authentic source : " Captain FRANKLIN has succeeded in sur veying the northern coast of North America, from the mouth of Copper-mine River, for more than 500 miles to the eastward. He found the mouth of that river in lat. 67 deg. 48 min., which is 4 degrees less than what HEARNE made it; and no point of the coast to the east ward exceeded 68 deg. 20 one place it came down to 66 deg. 30 min. to the Arctic Circle. The sea was studded with innumerable islands, between which and the mainland was an open channel of water 4 or 5 miles wide, and from 10 to 40 fathoms deep,—no ice whatever but some small masses here and there adhering to some rock or promontory ; all of which is highly favourable to the success of Capt. PARRY, who, however, could not have arrived on the part of the coast to whi c h C a ptain FaAN OII4 Cr°. ceeded, until the latter had left it on h is retarill: which was on the 95th of August, a nd at "' hi % early period the winter set in, and contiattell with great severity, though, as every body remember, we had no winter at all in &V ia " urn cc on the sth of S e pt em b e r, on their ret land, a snow-storm occurred, which covered t he earth with two feet deep of snow, --this wa fthe forerunner of all the misfortunes that bete' f, party.
