News has just been received from Catalonia by
an exinsordinsry courier. The Chief of the Stuff of
the Army of the Vuisth, Military Governor of Urgel,
presented himself at our posts, and demanded
pardon and an asylum. He is the bearer of a so-
luinMout correspondence, which discovers the par-
ticipation of several persons residing In the coun-
try occupied by oar troop•. In consequence of
his defection, some of the principal persons who
were shout the soi diarist Regency, have i.e.-entered
France ; and General Mint hors given orders to
arrest some 110iika and priests of Barcelona,

GERMAN PAPERS.

♦UGSBUBO, OCTOBER 21.

Mier some fruitless conferences with the Reis
Effendi relative to the relations with Russia, Lo►d
St rangford received, before his departure hum Con-
stantinople, a note from the Reis Effendi, in reply
to his of the i7tit of July. The note of the Turkish
Minister passes lightly on the differences with Roa-
sts, but it highly flatters Lord Strangtord.
There is also a report of a note having been pre-
sented from the Reis Effendi to the Ambassadors
of Austria and France, and the Prussian Minister,
on the same subject. The accounts from Erzerum
further confirm the victories of the Persians who
continue to advance. Armenia is in insurrection.
The Wechabites have appeared again. Syria has
been desolated by an earthquake. In the Mores
the Greeks are victotious, and it is even reported
here (at Constantinople) that the Turkish fleet has
experienced another defeat. These alarming ac-
counts have doubtless induced the Porte to the
measures which it has lately adopted—such as the
order to deliver up gold and silver in exchange for
• kind of paper—the depreciation of the currency—
the prohibition to wear shawls, &e. Hot •ll this
has excited consteresation among the Mus►elmeu,
and threatens the capital itself with some awful
cat ophe. The number of the discontented in-
daily, and it sas about • week ago (18111
September) that they went io crowds to the Greek
suburb, where they set fire to several houses. so
that the greater part of that suburb was reduced to
ashes. Thousands of Greek artisan', wander about
without employment, stud most of them fly to the
Islands, or even to Asia.

THE BRITI Sil PI C-,

LONDON.
FRIDAY, Novmini 1, 1922.

A new feeling appears to prevail upon the Co-..
tineut with respect to the foreign policy of E„__
land. It probably has been excited by the acres.
Dion of Mr. CANAING to the head of the Foreign
Department. Fortunately for his fame, his prede-
cessor in office bad proved himself so hostile to the
cause of liberty all over the world, the change most
of necessity augur something better. We trust,
however, that enough of Mr. CANNime's views has
been already devoloped in his correspondence with
the Continent, to afford a more solid foundation for
these hopes of a more liberal policy than that
which has been hitherto pursued by England.
The mere chance of a more liberal Minister could
not have excited the sanguine hopes which now
animate the friends of liberty in Greece and Spain.
We have lately noticed • relaxation in the harsh
treatment expe►ienced by fugitive Greeks in the
lonian Islands; and we perceive in the following
extracts from German Papers received last nigh,,
that an endeavour has been made to induce several
Grerk districts to place themselves under the pro.
tection of England. This statement may not be
founded iu fact, but, whether false or trim., it shows
the new-born hopes conceived of England. The
following are extracts from the German Papers:—.
AVIIISBUIRO, OCTOBER "22.
The Allgerseine Zeiturg of this date contdiut
the following letters from correspondents:—

" Cossetantinople, September ?b.
4, Before Lord Strarigford's departure he bad het
with the Reis Effendi same warm debates reepect-
ing the capture of two English ships in the Archi-
pelago, whist:, however, terminated without any
decision, though the Lord High Commissioner of
the lonian Islands made claims upon the Porte on
this account, and demanded satisfectiow. The
measures that have been adopted to prohibit Eng-.
lisb and French goods, have oleo caused remon-
strances to be made to the Reis Effendi, but.
hitherto to no purpose. The people are ex-.
treacly discontented at the depreciation of the
currency, and the issuing of bons npon the first
receipt of the excise on liquors, end the poor Greeks
have again suffered fur it; $,400 houses of the
Greek and Armenian Christians have been burnt !
Though Ilasroki Aristarki, the deposed Greek
Dragoman, has been murdered, the Porte pretends
that it hes given no orders for du! murder ! The
Porte suppresses the reports from the Mores. Ac-
counts are spread abroad, saying, thot Chou .chid
Packs has caused provisions to be sent there
which were scarce, but the Greeks have nothing
but news of victories. The Persians have pene-
trated on the one side to Erzeruin, and on the
other to Sulimarrieh. Bagdad is bravely defended,
but at the end it must fall. The Turks have
here suffered a very great lose. From Arabia
the very afflicting intelligence has been received
that the Wechabites have attacked and plundered
the caravans to Mecca and Medina, and have killed
ten thousand Turks."

" 1113rseilleso October T.

" Commercial letters received (ruin the Levant
assert, that English agents have gone from the
lonian Islands to Greece, for the purpose of conti-
nuing the important negociations which have been
fur some time on foot. According to what these
letters assert. nothing less is in agitation titan an
endeavour to induce several Greek tlioviets to place
themselves under the protection of England, which►
would exercise the same rights there as in the lonian
Islands. Whatever truth there may be iu ihis state-
ment, it is at least certain that for some time past
there has heel. a vety Genre intercourse betters II
Corfu and Zonte on one side ; the Gretk At 01,0,1-
ties in southern Albania, Acartionia, and Etoliii, nu
the oilier ; and that ►everal interviews with import-
ant persons have taken place at Missolonghi. It is
said that a part of the (I,eek clergy are also con-
cerned. It is further t aimed, that for the sou••
purpose nogueialsona have buil, o meored mll
Morea, and that some or the Chichi in that etioiit•c
appear to be devoted to the English intetest.
titer the fact is that they have been gained over I.y
the English agents, or that they are actuated li
the alipiehension that Greece cannot at the long
run defend itself against the Turks, and that it I.
therefore more advantageous to deliver themselvr,
from the Turkish yoke by the assiatance of the
English, than to remain alone and perish, it 'seems
to be beyond r doubt that the matter itself is well
founded, but how far it extends, mid what influence
this English party may have on the whole, cannot
now be stated. The event of the present campaign
Rill very prObly lead to a decision on this point;

I

~

if, as there is every reason to hope, the twks
Souk! not be able to subdue Livadia and the Mo-
tes before the winter seta in, the Greeks will have
all time in the intervening months to take a &et-

.ire step."
Another letter affirms that the heads of that
ame ti which is for calling on the protection of
12;tigliod, are some a the rhernbers of the Senate,
rho hues been expelled by the Military Chiefs, who
,o not feel confident of effecting the independence
Greece, or ate perhaps too much afraid of the
\binary Chiefs to expose themselves to them with.
.at foreign protection. Time must spew how for
he English agents set hi three negociations of their
on accord, or are Authorised by their Government.
'et it should seem that the latter can hardly take
o important a step without the assent of the Con-
lets.

We have received New York Papers to the gth
ostant. They confirm our late statement of the
-Jetline of the yellow fever in that city. The latest
reports from the Board of Health represent the

the subject with the clergy, as • day " of public

suite mercy to restore health to the city."
The accounts from Pensacola represent that

that fifteen persons were buried in one morning who
had died of the yellow fever. The Governor and
