on the Ist of March, by the post to Bails. A
severe reprimand which he received from the Porte,
on account of the bad discipline of the troops under
his command, sad of the disorders and pillage in
the province proceeding from this cause, had such
• bad effect on his constitution, which was already-
weak, that he became seriously ill and died. After
his death the command was assumed by his Kiaja
Bey. Two Tartars from Constantinople brought
to Salish Pacha, a short time before his death, the
confirmation of the capture and beheading of Ali
Pachs.
Direct accounts from Corfu likewise confirm this
news, and mention the 9th of February as the day
on which the head of the rebel was sent to Consists.

case by the next letters from Constantinople. It

different quarters, Chourachid Pacha had taken
measures immediately after the capture of Ali for
the departure of the army under his command,
which had lately been considerably reinforced by
Albanese troops.—(Anorian Observer, March 15.)

The recalling of the young Russian. who are
studying medicine in the German Universities
spin leads the public to believe that all apprehen-
sions of war have not vanished. Well-informed
persons affirm that the expenses which Russia has
been put to by collecting such numerous corps in
the frontier provinces are so great, that it can
hardly be supposed it will go back without an in.
demnity for such great sacrifices, an indemnity
which the Porte is not likely to give.
The politicians are convinced, indeed, that the
Emperor never intended to give • single man to
support the Greek insurrection, which agrees with
his declaration at Laybach ; but the Russian
Court cannot be indifferent to the events in
Turkey, as no human foresight can tell what
turn they may take. Some are therefore of opinion
that even if the good understanding between Rus-
sia and the Porte should be restored by medi-
ation of the other Power., the Russian troops will
still remain in their positions; but others think that
the events in the east of Europe are less calculated
to give the Cabinets real uneasiness than that in the
west of the Continent, and that the numerous army
assembled in the Russian frontier provinces, ready
to take the field. is in fact intended for very differ-
ent purposes from what blind friends of the Greeks
pretend. The future alone can tell us whet we
have to think of the reports in circulation, that all
the necessary arrangements are agreed upon for the
possible cur, that future events should, contrary
to the wishes of the Powers, render an active inter-
ference in the internal affairs of the Turkish em-
pire absolutely necessary.—(Allgenteine &thing,

es the 30th of April move for leave to bring is a
Bill to repeal so much of the Act of the 30th of
CHABLIS 11. as imposes penalties upon Mimeo
Catholic Peers fur sitting tad voting in the Hume
of Lords. We cannot doubt the success of this
measure. There is not, we believe, a man ia the
empire who could conscientiously say that the
slightest or moat distant danger could be appre-
hended from permitting such men as she Doke of
NohroLe, the Earl of SIIRMSBURY, the Kul of
num, end the other Catholic Peers of the
Voiteri Kingdom to sit in the Noose of Lord,.
This point, iudeeds seemed at all times, cod in
every discussion upon the claims of the Roman
Catholics, to have been conceded even by the moat
energetic of their opponents; and when we consi-
der the ease with which a few years since Mr.
Caoesa's Bill fur throwing open the army and
easy to the Catholics, without any limitation or
condition, was passed through both Houses cad
received the Royal sanction, we feel the more con-
fident in anticipating a favourable result to Mr.
CANNING'S present project.
This proposal for restoring to the Howanes,
the Teuton. and the CLIFFORD! of oar day, the
honours that belonged to their ascestors, comes
before the public with many circumstances to re-
commend it. The measure certainly does not pro-
ceed directly from the Cabinet ; the Ministers,
therefore, are not bound collectively to lend it the
direct support of their influence. But Mr. Caw,
Nina has hardly ceased to be a Minister, and every
one must feel that he still enjoys, in as high a de-
gree as ever, the entire confidence of his MAJESTY'S
Cabinet. This, if it required proof, is evinced by
hie recent appointment to the Government of India.
We may hence conclude that the proposition is not
submitted to Parliament by the Right Hon. Geo-
deems preprio mote, but that it is ushered iota
existence with the knowledge, if not with the full
concurrence of the Kure's Minister*. Mr. Cae-
sium professes that the measure is distinct from
the rem question of Catholic emancipation. To
our minds it offers but a distinction in terms, or
rather it seems to form • great and important
branch of the more general question which ha. for
more than half a century agitated the empire.—
But call it as we may, the measure is fraught with
conciliation; it brings health upon its wings. end
is the harbinger of that good cod kindly feeling
which ought to subsist between all classes of the
same people. Neither experience nor prejudiee
can specify the slightest evil that has arisen from
extending to Roman Catholics in Ireland the
elective franchise : with equal confidence we alike
