M. Tessin, a French banker, seems to enjoy great favour at
Court. Our King was very intimate with him when he was at
Vallencay. Besides considerable contracts for the equipments of
our troops, he may place himself at the head of a loan, and ester
into a competiiion with the English and the Dutch, who sack
hither to offer large sums to our Government, with securities.

The expedition of Ibrahim Pacha against the Marta has set
been as lash as was at first supposed. The powerful Coloeotosa
influenced by foreign agents, only awaited the debarkation cf Re:
him Pacha, in order, in conjunction with him, to attack and ova,
throw the Government of Napoli di Romania; but he diaeuvarsi
his designs too soon, and his son was killed in a battle against W
Greek Government. At the same time Ibrahim Pacha met with
check upon the waters of Candle : his squadron was dispersed losa
storm, and he assembled it in the Gulf of Aland. Fie saiW a
second time npon the P.stli of November ; but it is said the Greek,

and 2,000 prisoners, towards Alexandria. The Greeks &Ohm Oat
the title of Ilospodat was promised to Colneritmni if the project hal
succeeded. But how did it happen that this Chief did not perceive
it was a snare laid for him, and that he must soon fall a victim io
the perfidy of the Divan ?
The Mores has escaped a great calamity, but the civil wu Lora
inflicted deep wounds upon the cause of the Greeks.
The Capitan Paths has, it is said. received orders to hold him.

The following is the substance of a letter from Lisb in, dated the
2d and 3d instant :
" The frigate Circe has passed off Lisbon, but made no stay thee.
A second frigate, the A "de, entered the Tagus the 21st of De-
cember, but rte Captain, instead of asking orders of the Ambassa-
dor respecting his departure, after receiving private instrucims,
declared he was going to sail for the purpose of taking in at Coruata
a convoy of discharges! soldiers.
" We can easily imagine that the. inertness of the French 31inirty
encourages and increases the boldness of the British An.bassacto.
We know fur a fort, that in the latter days of December, the lin-
gliab Ambassador, Sir William A'Court, signified to the Kitg,
what it is impossible to call any thing else but a command, that he
should dismiss within three days, the Count de Subserra, MiniseT
of War, the only Portuguese Minister who was attached to the
interest of France. It must be said, to the honour of the KIK,
that he resisted this audacious attempt ; but who can answcfor
firnineaa of resolution in an afflicted Prince, whose family is di-
tided, raid whoa: throne, separated from every protecting tau:a-
non, is thus abandoned defenceless to the attacks of faction, nal
the audacity of foreign influence. %Fill Brasil end by joinlng with
the mother country ? The men who affirm this with the greatest
confidence, are perhaps those who believe it least. They fitter
themselves much more that Portugal will be united to Brasil; this
is the opinion of the Brazilians, and what gives it weight is, that
it is also the opinion of a great portion of the wealthy merch mts
of Europe. When Brazil opens a loan the principal subsaitir
are to he found at Lisbon. It is the gold of Portugal that nour:sks
and increases the independence of Brazil."
The speedy arrival of Sir Charles Stuart, at Lisbon. is spoken of
in that capital He resided many years at Paris, as Amithasstado
the late King. He comes, it is said, for the purpose of dale log
that England bas recognised the Lidependence of Emil, an I of
inviting Portugal to do the same. It is added, that after ebtain'ng
from Portugal the recognition commanded by his Government, he
will repair to Brazil as Er.voy Extraordinary, and after a short st ty,
he will visit the different Stater of South America. That finely,
England renouncing those futile pretexts, which deceive ro penal,
will not hesitate to recognise and proclaim aloud the complete in.
dependence of the States of this vast continent.
