FpREIGN INTELLIGENCE.. PAttiS, SEPT. 7.—We have already stated, that the four young military men condemned to death for the Rochelle conspiracy, had solicited the President of the Court, as a favour, to intercede for them that they might not be put in irons and separated fro►► one another. It appears that the intercession of this magistrate has produced the desired effect. The four are confined in one chamber, and plac e d under the eye only of,two . . , Gendarmes. They praise very much the huma nity of M. Bault greffierconcierge of the prison.— They at first refused to avail themselves of the right of appeal which the French law allows and iiiwas - with► great difficulty that M. Bervitte, one of their Connsel, prevailed on them to abandon that resolution. At midnight, on the ith, they were removed to the Bicetre.—(Constitutionnet) At half past four o'clock to-day, a Commissary of Police, charged with the, execution of an order :given by. one of the Juges &instruction, at . the clewand of the Procureur Royal, came to the office of the Constitutionnel to seize the number of this Journal, which appeared this morning. The order for seizure was given according to the 6th and 7th Articles of the Law of May 26, 3819, and according to Article sth of the Law of March 25, 1822.. In the evening the responsible Editor (which :this Journal has in Common with every other) was summoned to appear on the 12th of Sep tember, before the Court of Assizes. This summons was given in consequence of an order of .111. Menmerque, President of the last Assizes, and of the following request of the Procureur C eneral " To THE PRESIDENT .OF THE COURT OF ASSIZES. " The Procureur-General has the honour to point out, that from information which he has received, it results that the Con stit utionnel, the Courier, the Journal du Commerce, and the Pilate, have reported the proceedings of the Court of Assizes in the affair of La Rochelle, and particularly the proceedings on the sth of this month, not only incorrectly, but obviously with bad faith. "In consequence he requests that the President will be pleased to order the responsible Editors of the above-named ..tournals to be cited on the earliest day, that the 7th article of the law4pf the 22d March, 1822, may be applied to them, and in execution of the 15th and 16th articles of the same law, and this without prejudice to the more severe penaltiei, which may be inflicted on account of defamation, or of injury committed against the Tribunals, or on account of any other crime forbidden by the law."—(Constitutionnel.) A letter, from Perpignan, in the Journal de Toulouse, gives the following account of the forces united in the department of the Eastern Pyrenees : —7th of the line, 1746 men ; 18th do. 1899 ; '-26th do. 1763 ; 32d do. 1747 ; 39th do. 513 ; .6th light infantry, 1236 ; 2d of 'foot artillery, 571 ; sth squadron of the train (104 horses), 163; 4th company of artificers, 66 ; chasseurs de la Sarthe 067 horses), 110 in all,— 9949. We learn from Marseilles that M. Lepide- Compolis, at the head of twenty German officers and two Poles, embarked at that town to repair to Greece, his native country. The officers were All well armed and equipped by the societies of Stuttgard and Zurich, whose humanity every day makes new elibrts in favour of the Greeks: The Moniteur of Saturday contains the follow Lug Ordinance : _ _ '`• In pursuance of the report. made by the Director-General of the Customs, on the arrival at Havre of the American ship Mary, from the United States, with a cargo of leaf. tobacco, and on the necessity in which the said vessel was placed of putting., again to sea, if, in order to be admitted into the port of ,Havre, :she should be obliged to pay the duty of 90 francs per ton, which, according to the terms of the convention of the 24th of -June last, and of the ordinance of the 3d of September, do not cease to be demandable until the Ist of October next, his Ex cellency the Minister of Finance has on the 4th of September issued the following order : • Considering that if the interest of our commerce requires that Amercan ships shall not enjoy in France the full effect of the Convention of the 24th of June, until the epoch in which French ships ships shall enjoy the same in the United States, it would nevertheless be contrary to the sentiments of reciprocal benevolence which unite the two nations, if, by a rigo rous application of subsisting regulation, the vessels of a friendly Power should be placed under the alternative of submitting to extraordinary duties, the operation of which is about to expire, Or of exposing themselves by keeping out at sea, particularly at this season, to risks which an act of ligitimate condescendence might enable them to avoid—the American ship Mary shall therefore be permitted to enter and lie in the port and basins of Havre, there to await the epoch of the Ist of October, at which period the regulations of his Majesty's Ordinance of the 3d instant have effect ; for which purpose the said ship shall merely deposit her manifest at the custom-house, and shall, until the before-mentioned epoch, be relieved from the necessity of making declarations, and observing other forum lities, the performance of which is by the general laws pre scribed within determined periods. The present decision shall be applicable to all ships from the United States which may arrive at French ports before the Ist of October.' " The Secretary-General of the Customs has transmitted to all the out-ports orders conformable with the above decision." CONSTANTINOPLE, AUG. 10.—Et •is said that the French Ambassador, M. de ,Latour Mau bourg, has complained to the Reis-Effendi, that he had not received an official copy of the Notes of the Porte, of the 16th July, relative to the nomination of the Hos,podars. The Reis-Effendi replied, that'•this note was destined only for the . . Ministers of the Mediating Powers, and that it bad not been communicated even to Russia.— Lord Strangford proposed to the Porte to give a direct reply to Russia, but the Reis-Effendi refused. BUCIIIREST, AUG. 14.—There is nothing new here;' but the discovery of combustible matters placed under the houses, has spread a general panic. WARSAW, AUG. 21.—The Jews who carry on the trade of liquors are not to enjoy this privi lege lonaer than a year. In consequence they are forced at present to supply liquor on credit; the peasant who contracts debts with the Jews on this score will not be obliged to pay them. SEMLIN, AUG. 23.—Letters from Vitoglia of .the 9th August inform us that Chourschid Pacha .nuived at Larissa after his defeat, on the 20th of June, where he was joined by his reserve, and again marched to Zittoni with 30,000 men. — The facility with which the Turkish militia is assembled makes this fact appear probable. The same letters add that he was defeated a. -second time on the 26th July, but we must wait for more certain and circumstantial intel- ligence. Captains Tassis and Diamanthy, disembarking at Platamore, near Mount Olympus, on their return from Cassandra, summoned the moon .taineers to arms, and advanced at the head of 15,000 men to Servizia, between Larissa and Janina. The Pacha of Belgrade has received intelli -gence,of his .son, employed in the army opposed * NOTES OF THE FRENCH EDITOR.-01H readers are informed that the Spectateur Oriental is published at Smyrna, under the inspection of the magistracy, and is not a pure and authentic source of news from Greece. It is, however, less bitter against the unfortunate Greeks than a certain official Journal of Germany ; it sometimes gives us a glimpse of facts which make no doubt of the ultimate success of the oppres sors of the Greeks, and it gives circumstantial details which appear gathered on the spot. From this circumstance it is our duty to communicate these extracts from this Journal to our readers, though they are contrary to our wishes. To conceal the news which displeases us, to fabricate vic tories in favour of those persons whose cause we support, would perhaps be more easy for us than for many other Editors of Journals, but it would not find a single approval among those enlightened and well instructed men who read our Paper, and know our impartiality. t We must request our readers to observe this date. The state -of things has changed considerably since then. The capture of Napoli de Romani, confirmed by the Spectatcur, has given the Peloponnesians a military point of support very import ant, and which corresponds with the citadel of Corinth, natu rally very strong. Master of these two positions, an army might maintain itself for a long time in the Isthmus of Corinth. But a vigorous resistance on the part of the Greeks in the mountains of Thessaly, Etolia and Phocida, would even pre vent the Turks from approaching the entry to the Pelopon nesians. Neither the reported victories of Chourschid Pacha, nor of the Greeks being confirmed, seems to prove that they are still fighting in small detachments, and with balanced suc cess in these mountainous countries, so favourable to an army like that of the Greeks, composed of riflemen and partisans. In such a situation courage may dispense with discipline. We may hope, therefore, to see the Mahomedan army stopped be fore it reach Livadia. The warlike Albanians, however, keep the passes of the mountains in their hands; if more enlightened it would seize this moment to ensure their own independence, in taking part with the Greeks; but corrupted and greedy of gold, the Alba nians will probably endeavour ,o betray both the Turks and the Greeks to gain subsides and booty. If the Albanians continue die system which they have hitherto pursued the cam paign will be tedious and slowly brought to a conclusion. to the Persians, being taken prisoner near Bagdad. FRANKFORT, S Err. 3.—Le Spectateur Oriental gives the following intelligence concerning Greece . When the Ottoman fleet put to sea, it was accompanied by forty transports, and had nearly 40,000 men on board of the whole one hundred and forty vessels of which it consisted. ft is probable that it is destined for the Peloponnesus. Towards the end of June, the following was the Mate Of the Peloponnesust There were in the country between 30 and 40,000 men under arms, but they were in a very undisciplined state, of which we "will give an example. At Argos,,there were 10,000 troops.— The Supreme Senate resolved to send an expedition to Epirus; and all the Greeks refused unanimously to march. All the shops and coffee-houses, except that called Foreigners, were ordered to be shut. At the end of a fortnight Prince i%lauro cordato succeeded in persuading the Greeks to obey. Ilesent them to Patras, and irons that neighbourhood they were trans ported by sea to Miss°longo, the head-quarters. They marched from there to succour the Suliots, who had revolted, and against whom Chourschid Pacha was advancing. About 6,000 Suliots joined Prince .slaurocordato. . _ 'l'lie first engagement was animated, but not at all decisive. The Greeks were not, it is true, forced to repass into the Pe ninsula, because they found a great deal of determination among the Suliots, whose women rivalled the men in valour; but on the other hand, independent of the experienced troops commanded by Chourschid, the Turks are masters of Suli, a very strong place, which Ali Pacha could not take till after a siege of four years. It is not above a month since the Senate resolved in its wisdom to send a Greek Captain, who had served in the Italian armies, to Odysseus, to whom the Senate had confided the passage of Thermopylae, that he might aid the Chief with his Counsel.— Arrived at 'Thermopylae, he presented himself to Odysseus, and explained the object of his mission. Odysseus gave him no other answer than to blow his brains out with a pistol. Motion, a strong place, and well provided, is defended by 400 Turks, 50 of whom are are cavalry. There are 500 Greeks, commanded by General Augustora, before this place. They have never prevented the Turks from making sorties and return ing with booty, because when they make a sortie the Greeks never wait for them, but take to the fields. 'We give the following as authentic :—Two months and a half ago, the 50 cavalry having made a sortie, went rather too far, and entered the inclosures round a house to repose themselves. In this situation they found themselves intercepted by a strong party of Greeks whom they had not perceived, and who had been hid by a plantation of olive trees. Eleven foreigners, whom their unlucky stars had conducted amongst the Greeks, encouraged them to profit by this occasion to carry off the 50 cavalry ; but as soon as these latter disappeared, the Greeks took to flight, and the 11 foreigners abandoned and left to themselves, were also obliged to fly. Patras, a strong place, is defended by 3,000. Turks. About 5,000 Greeks, 'commanded by Gen. Colocotroni, are near this city, of which the harbour is blockaded by eight vessels. The citadel is gong and well-provisioned. Coron is defended by two or three hundred Turks, and is also well provided. The number of Greeks before this place varies from day to day; but, when the Turks make a sortie, the Greeks retreat. At Tripolizza there are about 800 Mussulman slaves, men and women. Among them are some rich individuals, to whom the Senate allows a piastre a day, in the hope of being reim bursed at some future time. The Greeks employ the other slaves to burn the dead bodies, of which some are yet left.— Will it be believed ? After the dreadful fate which over took this city on being taken, it now contains more than 30,000 Greeks. Navarin is in the power of the Greeks, who amount there to about 10,000. There are some bastions towards the harbour and a citadel which commands it, the work of the Venetians.— There are about 50 pieces of cannon, 18, 24 and 36 pounders, but the greatest part of them are in a bad condition. A Turk ish fleet of 63 vessels appeared before Navarin about three months ago, and appeared as if it would enter the harbour.— The Greeks terrified were immediately ready to run away.— Some foreign officers placed themselves at the gates with swords and pistols in their hands to prevent the Greeks fiom leaving the place. This fleet remained two days before the town, and their going away allowed the terror of the Greeks to subside. _ . _ In the middle of the harbour of Navarin, which is large, there is a small island about 60 paces long, and 30 wide. There the bones of 700 Mahoinedans remain ever since this town sur rendered last year by capitulation—an eternal monument of horror and infamy. At five or six leagues from Tripolizza there is a manufactory of powder, but it is said that the powder is not of a good qua lity, In the same town also they cast cannon, which carry balls of two to three pounds. It is intended at present to form a guard of 100 to la horse, for the Senate. The horsemen received eighty piastres per month, but •must equip themselves ; but in the Morea, the horses are too small to be employed in war. The coun try is, however, well provided with cattle, such as oxen and goats, There is, in fact, no discipline but in the Phili-hellenian corps, composed at present of about 200 men, and in the regi ment of 400 men, commanded by the Greek Tarela, who has served in Italy. If the Turks seriously attack the Peloponnesus, if they send an army of from 20,000 to 25,000 chosen men, if a corps of Musselmen, after forcing the passage of Thermopylae, travers ing Livadia, attacks Corinth, and compels the Greeks to send a part of their forces to that point ; and if the disposable troops at Epirus move to - Patras, and act on the offensive, and the squadron effects at Modon the disembarkation of 20,000 men, we repeat what we have be6ire said, that we believe the Peninsula could not hold out one month.—lf, to the dis grace of humanity, the Greeks of the Peloponnesus are to be massacred like those of Chios, France would have a noble part to play by offering to the remnant of the Greek nation an asy lum in Corsica, in Languedoc, in Provence, where in former times so many flourishing Greek colonies were established. France would thereby gain an important accession of maritime and commercial population ; she would gain the Greek navy, which, at all events, will be able to save itself from the hands of the Turlq. This measure does not depend upon any foreign consent ; and requires for its execution no more than to consult the honour of this great Christian kingdom, the sentiments of a generous nation, and the heart of the Bourbons. But perhaps Providence may yet preserve Greece.—( Journal des Debuts. ) COURT OF ASSIZES, POITIERS. SITTING OF SEPT. 6. Two witnesses who deposed in favour of the accused Caff e were arrested for perjury. M. DRAULT, who had been appointed by the Court to de fend General Berton, but whom the General would not autho rise, _on being called on by the Court to defend the General, de clined. Ile was pressed by the President, the Procureur- General, and time given him by the Court to form a different opinion. His brother advocates undertook to persuade him, but M. Drault honestly and intrepidly persevered in his refusal to injure General Bengal, by pretending to speak for him ; he had not had the confidence of the General, and was, there fore, unfit for the office." This conduct of M. Drault seems ' to expose him to some penalties, but what they are was not stated. What is curious; however, is, that the Procureur- General stated, " that the whole proceedings would be an nulled if it were established that General Berton was not de fended by a Counsel." We know not how this will end, it General Berton read an animated paper in his own defence, without any Counsel speaking in his behalf. We cannot give even an extract, but 'he denied that La Fayette, Sebastiani, and. other Deputies were Members of the,directing committee, and forcibly exposed the wickedness of the insinuation that M. Lailitte had supplied the conspirators with money. _lle com plained of the vexations to which lie had been subjected in prison ; and compared the treatment he had suffered to the mode in which Santerre had treated Louis XVI on the way to the scaffold. Ile compared the act of accusation to the proscription list of the Dictator Sylla ; and hoped that the Jury would not act like Sylla's Lictors : but whatever might be the result, his motto would be Duke et decorum est pro patria mori. M. BOURIENNE defended Mix and Cafe, and M. BRU NET, Perail. FRANKFORT, SEPT. 2.—An account from the frontiers of Moldavia, of the 18th of August, says, " The ordinary post from Jassy, of the 14th, has brought letters which confirm the statements brought on the 12th by express. Above a quarter of that unfortunate city is reduced to ashes. The letters leave no doubt of the return of the Janis sarirs to Jassy ; but while many openly act:use them as the authors of the fire, others say it was occasioned by an accident." Scio contained about 120,000 souls. By the census lately made by the Pacha, there remain in the whole island only about 900 persons, and the contagion threatened to carry them all orr.— On the 23d of July there remained 150 persons in the Consulate of France, but 20 of them died daily. The dead were no longer buried in the city, but thrown pell-mell into a ruined Greek Church, near the French Consulate. Almost the whole population of the Mastic villages has emi grated ; in some there remain only a few old women. A finnan of the Sultan has been received at Scio, which formally declares, that all the Greeks who are at Scio, and those who shall return thither, are not only free, but are fully authorised to take immediate possession of their lands and property. Alas ! Scio will soon be only a sepulchre, and in this field of death the Imperial bounty 'will hardly find a few wretches to whom it can give a supporting hand. The epedemic seems to become daily more malignant. Ten piastres must be paid for removing a dead body ; for the man who consents to perform this office is generally seized with the disorder the following day. The Pacha himself is at present ill. The crop of mastic, corn, and grapes was never more abundant. It' has been necessary to send 600 Greeks from Chesme to labour in these deserted fields, where nature has been as liberal and bountiful as man has been barbarous. The Egyptian and Barbary flotilla has captured eleven small Greek vessels, and brought them into the port of Scio. The captains only have been put to death—the crews are prisoners, and have been put in irons. [here follows' the ac count of what happened , at Athens at the time of the capitulation, and ‘, the conduct of the French.), A part of the Greeks of Athens has fled to Sa- !mills and lea, the others have shut themselves up in the citadel. On the 18th of July, it was said, that the Turks were only four leagues from Athens.—(Journal de Frankfort, Sept. 3.) VIENNA, AUG. 27.—Metalliques, Si 17-3 e : Bank Shares, 866 2-3.— (Austrian Observer, August 28.) SPAIN. SEPT. 2.—The affairs of Spain, as we have al ready intimated, are assuming an alarming appearance. The measures adopted by General Espinosa, in the sth military di vision, which comprehends the provinces of Navarre, Guipus coa, and Biscay, are far from being conciliatory, and will pro hably not have the result that is expected from them ; for how can parents, guardians, and masters, be made responsible, not only for the presence of the young men in the bands, in case they do 'not return to their homes, but even for the excesses which they may commit under the standard of rebellion ? This General has adopted several measures of the same nature, which may end in exasperating people's minds, and conse quently increase the bands of the discontented, though. the ardent Liberales expected the happiest effects from them. In the last war with the French, their tyranny, the enor mous contributions which they levied, and the assassinations, under the form of judicial proceedings, and trials by Court Martial, far from intimidating the inhabitants, ended in mak ing them resolve to quit their homes. The state of things in Spain is nearly the same. The poli tical chiefs, influenced by the liberal party, cannot avoid act ing arbitrarily ; the military commanders, destitute of pecu niary discretionary power, only seek pretexts for levying fines, contributions, St; on the inhabitants. We are well aware from history, that the Spanish character, naturally proud and re vengeful, and besides little accustomed to such harassing treat ment, will not endure it ; the Spaniard, poor and little attached to his abode, sets fire, if necessary, to his dwelling in such a case, and takes the field with his musket on his shoulder and his segai in his mouth. If we consider the arbitrary acts of which the zealous liberals begin to be guilty, in tearing, by violence and terror, a great number of individuals from the bo som of their families, as has been done at Bilboa and St. Ander, we must conclude that the moment of. the cruel revo lution, so desired .by the exalted Patriots, is at length ar rived. The consequences will be very fatal and disastrous. —The liberals believe this the time of their triumph, and that all will yield to terror. Their adversaries, on the other hand, have never conceived such flattering hopes as now, and the fact is that their cause does not retrograde, especially in Ca talonia, where they have 20,000 men under arms ; and if we may give credit to information, which we receive from good authority, their new efforts will hardly give their enemies time to put themselves in a condition to resist the attacks of every kind to which they are going to be exposed; while the Royal ists of Navarre are every day becoming stronger, and organiz ing their force. We learn that Baron D'Erolles Commander in-Chief of the Royalists in Catalonia, is seriously engaged in' forming and organizing an active army, which will be raised to the force of 16,000 men, and composed of the elite of the dif ferent bands which swarm in that province, still leaving a great number of Guerillas, which will suffice to employ the Constitutionalists. These latter will 'therefore be obliged, on their side, to form an army of adequate strength ; but it is cer tain that they are in want of resources of every kind, while the Royalists, protected and supported, doubtless, by foreign aid, have such abundance of money, that they ()Ter 1000 teals to every deserter who shall come with his horse, and 200 to the 'foot soldier. This is a great temptation to the Constitutional Soldiers, who begin to waver at the report of the existence of a Provisional Government at Seo d'Urgel, and at the sight of the superior force which they have to combat, not to speak of the difficulties of the ground, and the many privations with which they have to contend. The Trappist has in fact effected his junction with Quesada, not, however, with 500 men, as n s wesiasidtroir47wr has st been 900 foot and 100 fine Lancers. harassed and fatigued by the march it has just made and the obstacles it has had to overcome, will repose for some days in cantonments in Navarre. General Espinosa is collecting in the environs of Pampeluna all the disposable troops in the district which he commands; as well as the volunteers of the National Guards, who are willing to take a part in the struggle. They estimate at 3000 foot, 300 hors; and four pieces of cannon, the force with which he in tends to attack Quesada, without reckoning ' 400 militia • of whom 100 are from Bilbo a, we have lately joined him. Seve ral rich merchants and land owners of that city, are in the num ber. These are impartial facts which we think it our duty to a report has been c u rr e n t h ere , th a t if th e epidemic communicate.

A. French Mail, which arrived this morning, brings letters from Smyrna of the 2d, from Constantinople of the 11th, and from Vienna of the 28th ult. The letters from Smyrna state, that the Officer commanding the Austrian Naval Forces on that station, and no doubt he must be a very im portant personage, had communicated by letter to the , Officer commanding the British ships, the information of his having re ceived instructions from his Court, not to respect the blockade By the Greeks of such parts of their country as were in pos session of the legitimate Turks, and to protect and infore the en trance into any place of all Mercantile ships bearing the flag of his nation trading in the Arches. This notable instrument farther stated, that this was the consequence of an arrange ment with the Courts of France and England. The French and English Officers, however, have received no such in structions, and either the Austrian Officer or the Austrian Go vernment were assuming too much in issuing such orders, on the pliability of British Ministers, who had pledged themselves to their Parliament to observe very different conduct. In the mean time the brave and oppressed Greeks were acting with equal prudence and vigour. A Maltese ship, under the Bri tish colours, which had attempted to violate the blockade near Negroponte, was discharged of her cargo, consisting of wheat, by the Greeks, was paid freight and all charges, and was restor ed in ballast to the crew. The letters from Constantinople communicate no public news, and that capital was perfectly tranquil. This silence must be considered as sufficiently dis pioving all the false intelligence lately communicated by The Aastrian Observer of victories and triumphs gained by the Turks. The Zante news also will probably prove greatly sur charged, if not entirely false. From Vienna letters have been received by a very respectable merchant, dated 28th August. They repeat the news of the entire defeat of Chourschid Pacha in the Straits of Thermopylw, and assert, that all the accounts published in the Austrian official paper of a contrary nature are groundless and untrue. None, indeed, can suppose that the descendants of Leonidas and his illustrious band would re tire over this theatre of their renown without emulating their glory. The most important letter received, however, is from Arta, and it is dated so late as the Bth of August. By the assistance of foreign spies and native traitors, a body of Turks had suddenly possessed themselves of Corinth ; but the particulars of its capture are as yet unexplained. The Gre cian Senate had, however, acted with distinguished patriotism and vigour. A levy had been made of all men betwixt the years of 16 and 60, and when the latest accounts had been re ceived at Arta, an army of 30,000 Greeks had surrounded Corinth, and the Barbarians were closely locked up in that town. On the whole, the news from the Morea are favourable, and the next advices may be expected to communicate very favourable results of this invasion of a Christian country by ; these hordes of true believers. A great deal of business continues to be done in the British Securities, occasioned by the great abundance of unemployed capital. The accession of the redoubtable loquacity of the Right Honourable G. CANNING to the persuasive verbosity of the Right Honourable B. BAT HURST, and to the profound cal culations of the Great Finance Minister, promises such a fund of amusement and entertainment during the next meeting of Par liament, that the dealers in 'Change-alley feel their spirits ele vated in consequence of this new arrangement, in a degree not inferior to the advanced value of their property. Consols for the October settlement are 81i4, and for Cash 814 f The New Fours are 1001, and may probably be forced up so high as to permit a reduction in the rate of interest on the Old Fours, when the Parliament assembles. 'Bank Stock is at pre sent closed, but some time bargains have been done at about 245, being a decline of 8 per cent., occasioned by the expected reduction of its interest. Very large investments continue to be made in every description of Foreign Stock. Spanish Bonds have advanced this day about 14 per cent., and are daily improving in the public estimation. The speculative bargains are also verf numerous, and they entirely withdraW the pub lic attention from every description of legitimate commerce.
