GREECE.

MOM ♦ CORRTSPONDISIT.)
ATHENS, Nov. 8.
Without being much of an optimist, one can but
see and acknowledge that everything here goes on
for the best, and that Greece is now traversing one
of the most critical periods in her modern 'history
with more calmness and self-possession than could
ever be expected to follow a revolution in any
country, and least of all among this ardent and
mobile race.
The revolution is now quite accomplished, and
Otho is no more recognised as King in any of the
remote corners of his late kingdom. Perfect tran-
quillity prevails everywhere, both in the capital
and in the psovinees ; the students and the civilians
continue to perform the duties of a civic guard,
conjointly with the regular army; and it is asserted
that among the ranks of the latter discipline is now
fully restored.
The National Assembly has been convoked in
Athens for the I.2nd December ; and it has been de-
creed that all Greek subjects residing abroad shall
have the right to be represented. Where there are from
100 to 1,000 Greeks they will have the rightto send
one representative • where there are 10,000 they will
mod two, and three if above 10,000. This measure
has bpui received with great satisfaction ; it
will, In fact; introduce into the National
Assembly au important element, numerous,
independent, and representing not only the
Greek subjects resident abroad, but also the
public opinion of the respective countries
from which they will be sent. In 1843 bodies
of Thessalians, Macedonians, Cretans, and so forth,
established in G reece, had sent representatives to the
National Assembly ; but the government has wisely
abstained from adopting now a similar course, which,
under existing circumstances, might be taken as a
proof that Greece in Lot sincere in her assurancesl
that no violation of existing treaties is meditated.
I was referring in my last to the only danger which
might threaten the government. This has now
vanished, thanks to the opportune decease of General
Grivaa. The general, after many years of quiet
life, could not withstand with impunity the hard-
ships of the active life to which he of late exposed
himself. He died of inflammation of the lungs.
The government have ordered in his honour a public
mourning of five days.
General Grivas was a fine old soldier, who fought
bravely in the war of independence. Since the
establishment of the monarchy in Greece his career
has been a series of revolts, banishments, and
pardons. In 1854 he obtained a brilliant success
in Epirus against the Turks, but was ultimately
defeated. The last act of his life was the promi-
nent part he took in this revolution. It is, how-
ever, fortunate for Greece, and for his own fame,
that he should have died before he bad the time to
get the provisional government into difficulties.
The newspapers received by this post from
France and England have caus.d a great sensation
here.

- The admission of the principle of non-interven-
tion has caused general satisfaction ; and there
seems to be no fear that the Greeks will do any-
thing to give the Powers a pretence for interfering.
As to the election of a king, every one awaits the
convocation of the Assembly, who will decide this
important question. The election of Prince Alfred
would have been universally proclaimed, if
-England
would let him accept.
The following aedress has been sent to the Pro-
visional Government of Greece by the committee
appointed by the Greeks resident in London, at
their last meeting :
TO THZ PROVISIONAL 00VERIIIIINT OP TSB KINGDOM OP

The Greeks resident in London, ever yearning from the
bottom of their hearts to the mother country, have felt
their hopes revived at the news of the last political change.
And, first of all, they thanked God on learning that
without any convulsion or bloodshed, the whole nation
arose and established, with the greatest concord, a provi-
sional government composed of venerable men, who have
had • glorious share in our struggles for independence. To
these glorious survivors of our first revolution, and to all
our countrymen at home, the Greeks residing abroad owe a
deep debt of gratitude, because, having with p-udenoe, ab
negation, and patriotism undertaken • great and difficult
task, they have maintained the most complete public order
at home, and they have disposed everything for the good of
the country, reflecting honour on the Greek naLie, and re-
gaining once more to the Greek race the sympathies of
foreign nations.
By the establishment of • genuine constitutional mo-
nerchy, having uan aim the welfare and progress of the
country, by the improvement of the financial condition of
the state, recorder to revindieate its honour and to nine
the national reputation, the National Assembly which will
soon be convoked will, by the help of God, consolidate the
fortunes and fulfil the wishes of all Greeks. _ _

These wishes, and the readiness to compwate with their
other countrymen for the good of their country, the Qt eks
resident in London, assembled in a geoeral meeting, have
eupointed this committee to express ,to the provisional
government.

THE MONITEUR ON LORD RUSSELL'S
DESPATCH.

The Moniteur, in its bulletin of yesterday, makes
the following remarks :
toe English despatch fully appreciates the sentiments
which dictated the step taken by the Emperor'. govern-
meet. It testifies, on the part of the British goverument,
the most lively desire to act in concert with France. In
declining, for the present, the co-operation which has been
offer 1, it is influenced only by the more or lest favourable
chance which the proposition of the French governedert
might have at this precise moment in the United States.
It is not a refusal, it is only a postponement.
The /Luise despatch may be looked upon in the same
light. It does ample justice to the feeling of 'mediation
and humanity which influenced the Emperor ; and, when
the proper time comes, it promises its moral suppo-t to any
dap that may be taken at Washingtoo. In St. Fetenburg,
no leg than at London, it is the situation of afain in
the United Stats which has caused all scam, in
the scare of the French proposal, to be deferred.
The reception which our offer of friendly i uterfererce would
be likely to have in America mint undoubtedly be considered
as very important ; but if our information is correct, the
tat Mos of the cabinets of London and St. Petersburg
bas nearly reached the period assigned for their duration.
There is in the United States, both Northern and South-
ern, an opinion favourable to peace which become*
stronger every day. The elections which have just taken
place attest the program of that opinion ; its upholders
have obtained a decided advantage, and it is likely to be that
of the majority at the next meeting of Congress.
