LONDON. FRIDAY, tEPTEMLIEB 16, 1845. ,
The French Papers vvrittTrTived last night contain
some curious and interesting details respecting the alleged
solicitation of the creeks for the protection of the English
diovernment. Some of the facts stated are so obviously
untrue, that we can give no credit to arty of them till they
are confirmed by snore authentic intelligence. la is 'aid, for
example, that the English " have dist:lama in all the
islands very argent prorlamitions. podtittely iftitiog Iles
Greeks to give themselves up to them ;" and again, that
" on due eith of August a Greek expedition sealed from
Napoli tX
sedittioli nfa for Crete,consisting of eight large m isti es,
•WI . schooner, with 8,000 troops on board, paid by
. C HAMILTON, doubtless with the list loan re-
i ceitrod from London." Every body must see that these
• •eterriagant assertions are wholly destitute of foundation.
Use Neutrality professed by the English Government has
. hitherto been, and no doubt will continue to be, strictly
and honourably observed. Yet here the English Govern-
ment, to what end no one can imagine, is represented to have
" thrown off' the mask," and taken a sudden, active, and
decided part in the war! It is, perhaps, true, that under
the momentary pressure of despair, the Greek Government
deemed It advisable, in case of the last extremity, to solicit
the intervention and protection of England; but all the
rest of the narrative of the Etoilr we must for the present
reject, as the offspring of the fertile invention of some of
those writers of Greek news, who have entertained us at
diferent times with so many wonderful achievements
which have never occurred.
Ws have nothing new from Spain. The Memorial
Bardelais says that the Trappist has been found dead in
his bed in the convent where he was confined by order of
the Government. It is remarked that FERDINAND is quite
fortunate is getting rid of his royalist enemies. The Baron
o'Eao Las died the other day of apoplexy, and the Trappist
is found dead in his bed ! It was hardly necessary to have
executed It r s size ES. 'He too would 'probably have died
suddenly if he had been committed to some safe place of
confinement, where nobody would have known how he was
treated.

The reports are still current that the French ft

wiil,hortly return into the Peninsula. The Indicuteur

de Btrdeoa.r contains a letter from Bayonne dated the 7;h
inst. in which there are accounts of the manceuvres of the
tries.* ineathrstitester the -walls et that.city. The ..41.1i%
niqer of War was expected there on the lea ec voth ;1
and it was generally understood that 25,000 or 39,000 men
would cross the Bidassoa at the close of the year.
The stateinent in the Jmrnal de Paris respecting the
suemsful conclusion of a negotiation for a new Spanish
loan, is wholly void of truth.
The French funds are agaiu declining, in sympathy, we
suppose, with our own. The Five per Cents, ex die. were,
at the close of the market on Tuesday, 119 f. SOc.; and the
Three per Cents 71f. 4.5 c. On the 24d of this month, the
registers of the conversions into the new stock of Four and
a Half per Cent will be closed. At present, the amount of
• these conversions does not exceed 600,000 francs, and they'
have not yet been quoted at any price. This is certainly al
striking failure ; but, indeed, what motive can the renders
have to 'reduce their annuities one half per cent., in order,
to ;nitre themselves for ten years against a re-payment
which is lass likely to take place every day?

Or the Sth of this month the first Insistence sent to the Oreekr
by the Philanthropic Committee at Paris sailed from Marseille..
This part' consists of old officers, subalterns, and workmen of the.

Prince of the Mainotes, acts again in concert with Coloeotroni,

Romania.
.according to accounts received direct from Mara, of the 3d, and
from Napoli of the 7th, the plague has manifested itself, not only
the Torte, but in the Isle of Candle, with a virulence which
excites serious alarm.
The Board of Health, at Corfu, exercises increased vigilance on
account of the plague at Motion ; but it is not known to have ex-
tended to any other place. It is even affirmed that Ibrahim Pacha

4 established a cordon to tut MT the communication between
Modon and the rest of the Mures, and that the measures he has
adopted are like those usual in Europe, but as he expects reinforce-
ments, and supplies of provisions and ammunition from Akaan-
dria, wherethe plague prevails, the precaution he has•taken affords

. .
little security for the future. •
,t Corti, the state of the public health is perfectly good, but an
English frigate which arrived Nom the Levant on the 10th of this
month, excited some uneasiness ; it lied six sick on board, one of
whom died the same day, and three others a few days afterwards.
The frigate has been placed under double quarantine, but it is cer-
- that the malady has nothing pestilential in it, and that it is

.sly a bilious fever caught at Athens, in consequence of fatigue.
Some persons pretend that it is the typhus, and this is not so for.
mally contradicted as the suspicions of the piague. The bodies of
four deceased officers have been landed to be buried, which in.
lases some fears for the future, in cue the disorder should be con-

JaLT 27.
It Is said there has lately been a General Assembly of the Go.
elarnors of Greece, in which the question was discussed to what
igropean nation they should have recourse in case of extremity.
/Mere were very warm debates. A pretty powerful party was for
ipploring the protection of France, but the contrary party, which
far England, prevailed. It was therefore decided that Greece,
n danger, should place itself under the protection of England.
Commodore Hamilton hastened to promise the Greeks, that in less
than fifty days they should receive the most effectual assistance
from the nation preferred: that perhaps troops and ships of war
might be sent them. In a word, he made them the most brilliant
promises.

Atto. 1.

Commodore Hamilton has sent an express to London, to sub-
to the Government the wishes of the Greeks, to whom he Ihas
promised that ha will perhaps give them a favourable answer in GO
days, as he said at first. It is affirmed, that he is particularly de-
sirous that the proposal should be favourably received by the Bri-
. Go►ernment, because hie representations have chiefly induced
various English companies to advance funds to the insurgents.
A COUST 2.

Commodore Hamilton has put into our port. Some persons on
board have confirmed the current reports. It is true that the Eng.
lish Commodore has transmitted to his Govenment the wishes of
the Government of Greece. It is added, that the Greeks of the
Peninsula were determined to have recourse to France, but the
islanders, who have long shown their preference of the English,
prevailed, and have induced the rest of Greece to desire the protec.
tion of Great Britain.

MILO, AITOWIT 1.

A merchant from Hydra announces, that the English have de-1
eidedly thrown off the mask ; that they have distributed in all the
islands very urgent Proclamations, positively inviting the Greeks to
give themselves up to them. They circulate for this purpose a
kind of address, to be signed by all the Anglo-Greeks. Boszari,
Vice-President-ofthe Government, and Captain Colocotroni, have
already signed ; but several of the Chiefs, among whom are Mauro-
, conlato and Condurlotti, have not only refused to sign, but protested,
as it is said, against the signatures of the others.

Three boats, with families, most of them Candiots, have arrived

pedition is to take poesesaion of the isle and fort of Gurri.

CITY, THURSDAY EVENING.
The British Stock Market presented a firm appearance
during the greater part of the morning, and Consols were
reported at 881 i till about two o'clock, when they declined
to $, without any particular reason being assigned for Ciis
movement in them. The business in Consuls, however,
to-day, was not at all extensive, and that might operate
rather unfavourably towards the close.

It was in the Foreign Market that jobbers to-day were
principally interested. A heavy settlement was anticipated,'
and anticipation has seldom been more fully verified. In- I
deed, how could it be otherwise, when it is considered
that during this account Mexican Scrip has varied above
seven percent., and Colombian Bonds to as great an extent?
On the 2d September, in the early part of the day, the
former was at 14i discount, and the latter were as low as
71. Since that period the Scrip has been nt 61, and the
Bonds 78. The one has since retrograded to 94 discount,
and the other to 761. This is a tolerably fair criterion by
which the public may judge of the amount of the balances,
that were to be arranged to-day ; and we wish that we
could say that they all had been arranged satisfactorily,
but unfortunately two defaulters were declared; and the
cause assigned for these failures is what too frequently
larkispasia to broken in time:bargain!, viz. the refusal of
their principals to make good their differences. One or'
the parties, we understand, has always been considered as
most cautious in doing business ; and if report says true,
he has been deserted by a person, who must, from his
situation in life, have stood above suspicion. The whole
of the attention of speculators was taken up in settling
their accounts, therefore the regular transactiena of the
day were almost wholly neglected ; but still there was
enough done to prove that a trifling improvement towards
the conclusion of the market had taken place. Colombian
Bonds, for instance, opened at 761, and closed at 771;
and Mexican Scrip commenced at 91 discount, and left off
at 8141. Greek Scrip continued at yesterday's price, 1711
Idiscount ; and Spanish Bonds were not moved by the re-'
Iport of the loan raised in Paris for the replenishment of
Ftnlinand's Treasury : nobody . believed it. Brazilian
Scrip left off at 91 9 discount, and the new Guatemala at 21
discount. The Danish was reported at OS 6 discount. 1
The Share markedly' little business done in it beyond
the settling. Anglo-Mexican Shares were lower; they
were 'quoted' to-day at 00, and those of the United Mexican
Company at 19. The Potosi Shares were down at 11.
The following new regulations, as to the delivery of
Stock on a day of settlement, arc posted up in the Foreign
Stock Exchange:—
" That at eleven o'clock on the settling day, three persons
be appointed to fix the prices of the different Foreign Securities,
for the arrangement of the account—the same to be af9xed in some
conspicuous place.in the room.

" That the taker of S:ock be obliged to pass a ticket to the
