Wit private individual', and is remarkable only
as it is said to accord with t I a. notions generally ari-
tertained upon thin subject by the people of Ger-
many. The welt. known character' of the Allied
Soveseignsi as they hare been displayed by their
conduct in the former general Congress, and their
subsequent proceedings, necessarily teach us to es.
pact in the ensuing assembly a repetition of their
denunciations against the progress of freedom, and
the means of extending political science through..
out Europe. They will therefore now loudly con-
demn every attempt at correcting the abuses of Go.
vernments, and improving their character and ac-
tion, end they will talk and perhaps legislate against
their unrelenting enemy, the public press. They
will not, however, we think, venture upon a war,
directly or indirectly, against Spain and Portugal,
even though these countries have been deeply stain-
ed with the crime of destroying the charming sim-
plicity of a despotic inotisrchy, and of substituting
the complicated and less manageable machinery of
• representative system of government. We are
more apprehensive for Greece, for we think that if
the Emperors and Kings will indeed leave Greece
to her own resources, this 'hew of generosity is
affected, because they think that they may safely
commit the annihilation of the Greeks to the great
power of the Ottoman Empire.

it is observed in the C'o•uitwtio•uel that the death
of Lord LONDON DERRY is not likely to cause any
changes in the system which the Sovereigns mean
to pursue. Their Majesties, we are told, would
not desire to allow to the Noble Marquis so much
personal importance. The care with which this is
stated shews plainly how large • space the lute
Marquis oecup4ed in the public mind of the Con.
tinent. The schemes, indeed, of the Sovereigns
must be futi}e and contemptible if they were to
depend for their propriety, even in their own opi-
nions, upon the life of any individual.

There is little else of any interest io these Papers,
which are nearly filled with the proceedings in tl.e
State Trials at Paris and Poitiers. The defence
of the accused in the Rochelle plot was closed
on Tuesday last. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL was
expected to make his reply the nest day, and the
Jury would return their verdict on Thursday at
farthest. The trial of General BERTON, from the
number of witnesses to be examined, will probably
occepy a much longer time.

A Lisbon Mail has arrived with Papers to the
26th last. A letter from the Minister for Foreign
Affairs was read in the Cortes on the 17th. it coal-
munieated a note from the British Charge d'Affaires,
demanding the suspension of the additional duty of
15 per cent. on British woollens. The note was re-
fe►red to ►he Special Committee on that subject. At
the same sitting it was stated, that the accounts
brought by a Portuguese brig, in sixty-four days,
from the province "of Alagoas, in Brazil, skewed
that prOvince to be perfectly tranquil : the dispatch
from the Provisional Junta of Para, and those from
the Government of Alagoas, expressed the perfect
adherence of the inhabitants to the mother country,
and their firm resolution to preserve inviolate their
oath to the Constitution of t!re Cortes.

Private letters from Lisbon state, that the troops
Littly embarked for Bahia remained on board on
the 45th last, and had not sailed at that date.
Some persons inferred from the delay that the ex-
pedition was abandoned, but it is more probable
that it was waiting for au accession of fresh troop'.
The new Bank of Li4bon commenced its tut*.
actions on the 45th ultimo.

German Papers have arrived. They contain a
translation of the two Notes addressed by the
Porte on the 16th July to Count Irezow and
Lord STRANGFORD. They are now become mat-
ter more of curiosity than of interest. We give
the article as affording an idea of the arrogant
tone assumed by the Ottoman Porte, and of its
inveterate hostility to the GaAs.

The New York Papers to the 17th last, state.
that the disorder which has made its appearance
in that city is ascertained to be the yellow, or ma-
lignat fever ; but by early attention, and very judi-
cious precautions, it has been confined to the
quartet in which it first appeared—that of Rector-
street and its vicinity, The rest of the city, up to
the latest information from New York. continued
healthy. In the other ciiies of the United
States there existed no ground for a similar alarm.
