Various reports still continue to be circulated respecting the re-
lations of Norway and Sweden, which, whatever may be the object
of their authors, ere without any sort of foundation. It is trite
that the Court of Stockholm has manifested much dissatisfaction
at the late proceedings of the Norwegian Siorthing, notwithstanding
the assurances given to King Charles John, by the Members who
compose it, that it is by no means front a systematic opposition,
that certain Royal propositions, for instance thst of the absolute
veto, have been rejected. Nevertheless, his Swedish Majesty per-
sists in the opinion, that by maintaining the relatta 'to, as it
now is, there will always be an infringe;rent of the monarchical
principle, since in certain cases the Monarch is excluded from all
participation in the legislature. It is however affirmed at Stock-
holm, that one of the most influential 31inisters of the Cabinet had
taken upon him the office of entering into a negotiation on the
absolute veto with the principal Deputies of the Norwegian Diet.

By the Flanders mail which arrived yesterday, we have
received the Brussels papers of Friday last. They contain
the liberal decree of the King of the Netherlands, for the
admission of British vessels on the same terms as those
under the national flag, until the conclusion of the com-
mercial treaty negociating between the two countries. We
have already given the substance of this decree.--By the
news from Vienna it appears, that the military occupation
of Naples by the Austrians is to be terminated the begin-
I ning of next year, " unless unforeseen events should ren-
der it necessary for the troops to remain longer." Inde-
Pendently of all the other considerations which lead us to
condemn and regret the prolonged subjection of Naples as
an Austrian province, we find that the Austrians avail
themselves of their power over that country, to mani-
fest their hatred of the Greeks, by cuttirg cif all coin-1
munication between them and the Neapolitan people.
No Government has shewn a spirit of more deadly I
hostility against the Greeks than the Austrians. Its
agents in Greece have been employed in creating and
fomenting internal discord. The insubordination of the
Capitani was mainly owing to the intrigues of Austrian'
emissaries. In no country, not even in England, has the
Greek• insurrection more enthusiastic or numerous friends
than in Italy. The sovereign Pontiff and the Roman clergy
have offered up their prayers for its success. The reli-
gious zeal of the Italians induces them to regard the con-
test with the Mahometans as a holy war ; and, forgetting
their ancient jealousy of the Greek Church, they have, since
the commencement of the struggle, shewn the utmost anxi-

ety for the triumph of the Cross o;er its barbarian enemies.
This feeling has doubtless teen considerably repressed by
the presence of the Austrians in Naples, but it cannot be
extinguished. If they were withdrawn we should soon
witness a cheering display of the sentiments of the Ita-
lians; and the knowledge of those sentiments will pro-
bably, when the period arrives, constitute another reason for
' not withdrawing the "protection" of the Austrians from
that country. The following are the most interesting ex-
tracts from these papers :

Baszn, AUGUST 8.
For come time mist the Jesuits have been busily exerting them-
selves to extend their influence in Switzerland, and they employ all
kinds of means for that purpose. They have but too well suc-
ceeded in some of the Catholic Cantons ; but in other, they have
been opposed with much firmness. The struggle, however, is
only suspended f r the moment, and there is evcry appearance that
it will be resumed on the first ootionuniy,. Meantime the Jesuits
tows been long. convinced of the necessity of fixing their principal
establishment in the interior of Switzerland. Hitherto it has bun
at the extremity of our country (on the frontiers of Italy), in the
little town of lirieg, In the Upper Vanish. They have attempted to
transfer it to another place. but very great difficulties have opposed
this removal : these difficulties hare now been surmounted, and we
learn, in fat, that the head-guartmt of the Jesuits. in Switzerland,
are to be established in the city or Friburg. where they have flurrl.
clout partisans, but many adversaries. It is probable ❑
that this
change will give occasion to very serious disclaim's.
It is confirmed that some of the projects of the Austrian Ca-
binet. relaiive to the affairs of Germany, hare wet with very un-
ezrected opposition.
rIENVIL, AVO. 7.
Many letters from Italy say that the Austrian troops will con-
tinue to occupy the kingdum of the Two Sicilies till the beginning
of next year only, unless unforeseen events should render it neces-
sary fir them to remain longer in that country. Their Majesties,'
the Emperor of Austria and the King of Naples, will have an
interview, it is said, next whiter, and Prince 3letternich and doe
Chevalier de Medici will agree in their emfererces, whether the
evanistion shell take place at the above-mein ioned time or not. It
is affirmed that General Frimont is going to be appointed to an im-
portaat military post in Austria. No successor in his command of
the army of occupation is spoken of: it is at present confided to
Prince Philip of Hesse Homburg. The Austrians, as we hear,
cccupy at present all the Ng:twill:an ports, and exercise the strictest
vigilance with respect to all vessels that arrive or depart, for the
11111t.,105e. as it seems, of preventing as much as possible all coo.
muninaion with the Greeks, and with the provinces formerly be-
longing to the Turks, where they are now masters. A thing that
cannot be doubted is, that Austria is, of all nations, that which 'Lost
zealously opposes all intercourse with Greece, and that it nets ac-
cordingly, not only in its own possessions, but in all those countries
where it exercises any influence.

The eTorts of the speculaMrs in Mark-lane have been
st.ocssastul. 'fate quarterly average of the price of oats for
I •
the six wee!‘s preceding the 15th of August has been
found, according to the fraudulent returns of the factors,
I to exceed by a trifle the price fixed by law for opening
the parts to foreign importation. This result is known to
have been obtained by a deeply-laid scheme, carried into
eft by a long train of downright roguery. The sales
which have be,,n returned must, in the nature of things,
have been collusive. Thecorn-factors have been multiply-
ing their false bargains to an emtravagant extent, in order,
tl accomplish the-design they have had in view. In seve-
ral weeks during the qnarter, we are assured that the quan-
tity of oats returned as sold has been nearly treble the
actual amount of the hose fide dealings in the market. I
The ports will be opened, therefore, not because the scarcity
of supply has 'raised the price of oats beyond the pitch
when, in the judgment of the Legislature, the protection,
due to the agriculturist should cease, but because the
dis-
honest acts of the corn-dealers have, for their own purposes,
cot:tilled to give it a turperary and deceitful rise, which,
now that the design is effectuated, will sink with the
greatest rapidity, leaving the fair trader exposed to all the
evi's of excessive fluctuation, aggravated by an immense
importation from abroad. In contemplation of this event,
we arc informed that hundreds of thousands of quarters
of foreign oats have been purchased for immediate iutro-
-1 duction into this country. On the Continent, in some
markets, they may be bought at oae-third of the price at

which they are ilia by the return► to be saleable in Ens%
land. How is the home-grower to withstand a competi-
tion to which he may thus, by the tricks and stratagems of
the jobbers in Mark-lane, be exposed, when he is in reality
least prepared or able to meet it ? If the principle of
affording protection to the agricultural interest is to be
maintained, the system of averages must be discontinued.
Government have in vain endeavoured to prevent the
frauds practised in making the returns. Every expedient
of the Legislature has been defeated by the superior cun-
ning and thoroughpaced knavery of the factors. In the
face of the country the price of oats is declaxed on autho-
rity to be what every man knows it is net. The question
then becomes, what remedy can be devised for this great
and scandalous abuse:: We pass over the discussion of
the principle of the corn laws, because that is not now
under consideration. The necessity of protecting the
agriculturist has been recognized by Parliament. It
is the law of the land, that ►he British corn-grower
shall have a defence against a ruinous competition with the
corn-growers of other coun trii a less burdened with rates and
taxes. The law is now cheated. No i.ne will pretend
that therefore the corn-grower has lost the right acknow-
ledged by the Legislature to belong to him. The practices
of Mark-lane cannot divest him of his right, though they
may deprive him of its beneficial enjoyment. The single
question at present is, how can the corn-grower be pro-
tected against the frauds of the system of averages ? The
only remedy seems to be the impositions of a fixed duty,
founded on precisely the same calculations as governed
the regulation of the present averages. We would not
propose, in this legislative proceeding, either to lower or
raise the scale of protection ; let it remain as nearly as pea.;
sible the same as at present. The object will be, not is 11
alter the principle of the Corn Laws, but to amend tbit
mode of their practice; the operation of a fixed duty
will be clear and simple; no perjury can, under that sysH
tern►, affect the public interest, or bring sudden ruin cut
the farmer, and aggravated distress on his dependent
peasantry. We are aware how delicate, and even danger-
ous, is legislation on this subject ; none has excited more
popular irritation and tumult; but we do not apprehend
that the temperate discussion of the question would
now produce the consequences which followed it in ISIS.
The popul.ce were then in a state of strong excitement,
resulting from a great change—the transition from war to
react.. The red flag of universal suffrage, with the legend
" Rio Corn Laws," might then easily stimulate the dis-
tressed mechanic or starving seaman to acts of outrage; but
now the trade of the country flourishes, and our growing in-
dustry has absotbed the unemployed multitudes who were
then maddened by misery, ready to rush into any excesses
the demon of mischief suggested to them. We thereore
look forward without alarm to the discussion of this
subject during the next Session of Parliament; and as
we are sure that no characteristic of the present adminis-
tration has contributed more to its popularity than the bold,
manly, and straightforward conduct it has pursued with
regard to all the great questions of foreign and domestic
policy, we trust, with all deference to the opinion of a re-
spectable contemporary, that his Majesty's Government will
not shrink from the duty which certainly devolves upon
them, of proposing the alteration necessary tt.4 defeat the
fraud and perjury which the corn-'aws at present engender
and foster.

find the Pacba of that country is very active in his preps-
ratioua against the Greeks ; he has a small squadron of ob-
servation cruising off the Isle of Candia, and three frigates,
with some small vessels, are fitting in Alexandria. A
number of troops were collected, and his only difficulty was
a want of transports. This he proposed to remedy, by com-
pelling all the English ships and others in his port to take
them at a low rate, but the English captains refused to
agree to his demand. We regret to learn, that our mer-
chant ships do every tkiag in favour of the Turks, because
.hey get better paid thin the Greeks can afford to do ; but
the French even do worse than this ; they have had two
men of war off Smyrna for some time, who allow the
Turks to do what mischief they can ; but the moment the
Greeks make a capture they compel them to give up their
prizes under some pretext or other."
The present harvest throughout England promises

LAST MOMENTS OF LORD BYRON.
inoa the Ex Neel

Dr. Bruno has sent us the following contradiction of
portions of the statement we copied last Sunday from the
irrelminstrr Review, respecting the medical treatment of
Lord Byron. We translate front the Doctor's French:—
ANSWER TO THE WESTIDESTEII REVD:A', RESPECTING
THE LAST MOMENTS OF LOUD BYRON•
M... Fletcher bas omitted to state, that on the second
slay of Lord Byron's illness, his physician, Dr. Bruno,
seeing the sudorific medicines bad no effect, proposed
blood-letting ; and that his Lordship refused to allow it,
and caused Mr. Millingen to be sent fur, in order to consult
with his physician, and see if the rheumatic fever could
not be cured without the hiss of blood.
Mr. Millingen approved of the medicines previously
prescribed by Dr. Bruno, and was not opposed to the opi-
nion that bleeding was necessary ; but lie said to his Lord-
ship it might be deferral till the nest day. He held this
language for three successive days; while the other phy-
sician (Dr. Bruno) every day threatened Lord Byron that
he would die by his obstinacy in not allowing himself to
be bled. His Lordship always answered—" You wish to
get the reputation of curing my disease ; that is why you
tell me it is so serious ;but I will not permit you to
bleed me."
After the first consultation with Mr. Millingen, the do-
mestic Fletcher asked Dr. Bruno bow his Lordship'a com-
plaint was going on. The physician replied, that if he
would allow the Wading, he would be cured in a few days.
But the surgeon, Mr. Millingen, assured Lord 8., from
day to day, that it could wait till " to-morrow ;" and thus
foam days slipped away, during which the disease, for want
of blood-letting, grew much worse. At length Mr. Mil-
lingen, seeing that the prognostications which Dr. Bruno
had made rt specting Lord Byron's malady, were more and
more confirmed, urged the necessity of breeding, and of no
longer delaying it a moment. This caused Lord Byron,
disgusted at finding that he could not lie cured without
kiss of blood, to say, that it seemed to him that the doctors
slid not understand his malady. He then had a man sent
to Zante, to fetch Dr. Thomas. Mr. Fletcher having
mentione:l this to Dr. Bruno, the latter observed, that if
his Lordship would consent to lose as touch blood as was
necessary, he would answer for his cure ; but that if he
delayed any longer, or did not entirely follow his advice,
Dr. Thomas would not arrive in time. In fact, when
Dr. Thomas was ready to sit out from Zaute, Lord Byrcii
was dead.

The pistols and stiletto were rcmovcd from his Lord-
ship's bed, not by Fletcher, but by the servant Titai who
was the only person that constantly waited on Lord Byron
in his illness, and who had lux ,n advised to take this pre-
caution by Dr. Bruno, the latter having ptrceired that my
Lord bad moments of delirium.
Two days before his death, a consultation was held with
three other doctors, who apixared to think that his Lord-
ship's disease was changing from inflammatory diathesis
to languid ; and they ordend " china," opium, and am-
monia.

Dr. Benno opposed this with the greatest warmth, and
pointed out to them that the symptoms were those, not of
an alteration in the disease, but of the lever eying to the
brain, which was violently attacked by it ; and that the
wine, the china, and the stimulants, would kill Lord
Byron more speedily than the complaint itself could :
while on the other hand, by copious bh edings and the me-
&eines that had been taken before, he might yet be saved.
The other physicians, however, were of a different opinion;
and it was then that Dr. Bruno declared to his colleagues,
that he would have no further responsibility for the loss
lof Lord Byron, which he pronounced inevitable, if the
china were given him. In effect, after my Lord had taken
the tincture, with some grains of carbonate of ammonia, he
was seized by convulsions. Soon afterwards they gave him
I
cup of very strong decoction of china, with some drops of.
laudanum ; and be instantly fell into a deep lethargic 'I
I sleep, from which he nevcr rose.
The opening of the body discovered the bra'n in a state'
of the highest inflammation ; and all the six physicians
who were present at that opening, were ccervinced that my
Lord would have been saved by the bleeding, which his phy-
sician Dr. Bruno had advised from the beginning with the
most pressing urgency and the greatest firmness.

• This is a French term, sometimes used for the smilax china,
but we have no doubt it means here the Jesuits' bark.
