GREECE.

A communication from Athens of the 14th has
the following :
His Excellency the Honourable P. C. Scarlett arrived
here some some days back, and has already presented his
credentials to the King. M. Dragoumis who has been for
some time past en disponibilile, a partisan of M. Marrows,
dato, the well known philo•Aeglo, has been named Minister
for Foreign Affairs. I am, however, sorry to say that the
ministry in general continues to iospire no confidence ; in
proof of which I may mention that dming the late sitting,
M. Memnon', deputy of ..Egium, having violently attacked
the Coloontroci ministry, saying that it was in every respect
the worthy follower of the fallen Mianlis cabinet, • noisy
discussion ensued, in consequence of the confusion arising
from the members of the present ministry retaliating on
their adversaries; so that M. Colocotrooi and
his colleagues thought it prudent to cut short
the uproar by leaving the Assembly in a
body. Circumstances are looked for, but when can
scarcely be foreseen, which will oblige the government to
change its present policy. The court, persisting in its
dangerous system, refuses to grant the general amnesty
which is clamorously called for by the people. It is gene-
rally supposed that the government is not acting with
sufficient vigour against the brigandage which desolates
Thessaly, and in order to create a diversion in public opi-
nion, which is hostile to the present dynasty, makes indi-
rect overtures to the opposition party ; but this latter re-
ceives them with indifference, and thus, although the late
events in Servile have made so impression upon the Hellen-
ists, the opposition party maintain a strict reserve. It is
thought that the organising of the National Guard will
only take place on paper. The treasury is reduced to the
greatest penory, and the Minister ot Finance, M. Levides,
being unable to face growing ernbarrsasments, has resigned
his poet. M. Barbogli has been appointed as his anommor ;
he is said to have more capacity ; but with empty coffers
it will be of little service.

rentree et Mlle. Parep and the drat appointees here at
lisdease Lan Heater.

Mille. Par pa's Dismal' may stand comparison, iii ewn

This accomplished great was is admirable Toro Lat night,
and rug with that relined mid haired samara) whi h
Ileyerbeer's music imperatively demander The shadow
given with the utmost fluency of vocalization and brillimr.
Illlseatice, was vehemently erred.

31dine. Laura Baxter made a most sumessful

The orchestra, under the able conduct of Mr. Adios,
