Extract. of • letter. 4uted Nevis (about tweuty
leogoes from ilthia), September 27. 1822 :

" By our last respects you will have learnt that
the Rio de Janeiro squadron hod stewed here. Ls-
helot, the commander of this expedition, has been
to Pernambuco, and 11w Government there hove
riven him sat) men ; lais force now consists of 435.
This expedition, however, is completely lost by be-
i'.g put under the command of the said General
(who is a Frenchman): he has thought proper
to put the second in command, Lieutenairt.Co.
linnet Martino, 3lajor Touray, and • Captain
nodee arrest ; and on the sent the Com.
ininillsot of this ',hire to request the immediate at.
toodence of all the English at his quarters, which.
of course, we •Il refused. Upon which he sent a
strong seined force to die Consul's house, who shut
his doors, and refused to admit them. They broke
his doors open, end took him prisoner before the Ge-
neral, Ayr which they came to our house, and they
likewise broke open our doors, and took us prisoners
before the said General, the object of which was to
question us regarding the attempt one of his offi-
cers had made io go to Pernambuco; bat we toki
him we should *newer no such interrogation*, ex-
rept before a competent uuthority. finding us
thus determined, lie set us at liberty. Our Cu,,.
13111 is preparing his documents for Mr. Chamber.
lain, the Consul-General is Rio, and likewise for
the Marquis of Londonderry; and unless this un.
warrautirble and scaorlalous violation of our treaty
is severely noticed by our Government, the time of
ail Englishman will no larger be respected, and we
shell hr thrown open to the insults of every bed•
intentioned {wows. Our treaty with Portugal,
which up to this period has been held sacred, is by
this men grossly violated. Our news from Bahia is
to the 13th itistaiit. General Madeira continues
still in a strong defensive *tote ; his force consists
of about 3 000 men, sod, we are informed, excel-
lent soldier.; hut unless Portugal can continue to
'wird him forcer, he will soon hate to surrender : he
is surrounded by upwards of 8.000 Brazilians, but
thry are undisciplined tiro. The enmity betwteo

left this city a few days ago Far Urgel. His depar-
ture gives • formal contradiction to the reports
which have been circulated of a panic terror having
taken possession of the inhabitants of the Sett, and
also of the Government. There is not the least
doubt that the declaration which France has made
to the Congress of Verona will, when it is made
keown, produce a great impression on the aoldiers

their success, now that the Cortex are organizing
terror throughout the whole of Spain.—( L' Echo

with on itueneshate attack. The city of Erzerum,
principal fortress of Armenia, is closely blockaded.
'Bagdad is entirely invested, but as the Turkish

The news from Arta is favourable to the Greeks.
Letters dated October 18, announce that Prince
Msurocorristn, slier six weeks ncgocistions with the
Tribes of Albanians who inhabitant that country,
had at length determined them to dissolve again all
connexion with the Porte. The Packs of Aria, as
already staled, had been defeated by Mini.(icor-
dab°, and had shut himself up in the town of Arts.
The Albanians, who had obeyed him till this mo-
ment, rose against him immediately, and made
themselves masters of his Harem And of his whole
family, whom he hai sent before the battle to
Vrione. His nephew, whom he had appointed Paella
of Beret, is among the prisoners. The town of
Arta itself is now besieged by the revolted Alba-
Mans. The letters add, that the Paella has bent to
Matteocordato to treat for so armistice.

PRIVATE CORRItSPONDENCE.

[FROM AN [VENING PAPER]

Extract from a private letter from Raja, written
on Monday:—

" PARIS, NOVEMBER Is.

" There has been a great bustle iii the stock
market this morning, and vast quantities of various
securities have been bought and sold, but especially
French and Spanish, both at considerably advanced
prices. The partially renewed panic of Saturday,
mentioned in my last, has been entirely got over,
and people talk no more of an immediate, or even
an approaching, war. It is understood that the
French Minister, Villele, has made a fresh commu-
nication regarding the policy of France towards
Spain, which has given slew confidence ; and the
article in the Monireue has generally received an
interpretation favourable to the continuance of
peace. The Reuses, accordingly, have been done
as high as 89.45.; but at the time I am writing
they have declined a little, not from ally as.ignable
cause, hut merely from a reaction, ut consequence
of persons endeavouring to realize upon the advance,
They are now at 89. 35. The conjecture I
huzsrded regarding the threat held out by France
to Spain, for the protection of the Royal Family,
has received some countenance from the contents of
the Drapean Blanc. f should add, that Spins!)
Bonds, of 1821, have been sold as high as GO. in one
or two instances, but not generally higher than
59i It seems expected that they will maintain
the latter quotation, unless some unlooked-for news
arrives to depress them.
With regard to affairs in the south-east of
Spain, it turns out to be correct, as I mentioned,
that the Regency of Urgel did not abandon th■t
place without compulsion. It was very true that
Urgel itself was mot threatened by Mina, but Bala-
quer was taken by and there was nothing to
prevent his advance to Urgel, where he probably is
by this time. Reports to that effect are current ;
it is even said that the Regency has deserted Puy-
cerds, to seek shelter within the French frontiers;
but both these accounts, I apprehend, are at least
premature.
1 have heard of no official authority for
them, and if they had been true we could nut have
been without it.

" P.S.—Since writing the above I find that fa-
vourable intelligence hes been received from
Verona, of the Sill instant. The discussions were
continued every morning, and nothing of a warlike
character was even whispered ; nevertheless the ut-
most secresy was observed. It was reported that
the affairs of Spain had been postponed for a time,
and that Congress was engaged on the question of
the occupation of Naples. This was supposed
from the activity swung the Ministers from the
States of Italy."

Accounts from Larissa of the 16th of October
say, that at the beginning of the month Chourschid
Pacha had posted 8,000 Albanians near Zt7ctuiii, to
cover Larissa ; but the Greeks secretly negnciated
with Czelenden Bey, the chief of the Albanians,
who joined them, and even gave up to them his
colleague, Abdo, the B•y of Prevesa, who was for
remaining faithful to the Turks. Thus Chours.
chid was placed in a critical position, and is said to
have already commenced his retreat to Bitoglia.
On the other hand, Prince Maurocordato, after
six weeks negociation, has induced the Albanians
to declare again against the Pacha of Arta, whom
ti attroccodato had previously beaten. The Pacha
is blockaded in Arts by the Albanians, and the
letters say he has uttered an armistice to 11aurocor-
ditto.

The Moyenee Gazette of to-day contains only
advertisements, and a notice to its readers, that it
will not he priblislud in future, in consequence of
en order of the Grand Ducal Government of the
9th instant.—(Frankfort Papers, November 15.)

The Paris Papers up to Tuesday have arrived.
The heat possible comment on the official articles
relatively to the policy of France towards Spain,
which have lately appeared in some of their
columns, is the confirmation given by those jour-
nals to the statement that QUESADA, one or the
leaders of the Army of the Faith, had entered the
French territory, and proceeded to Paris. Is it to
be supposed that if he did not feel assured of the
protection 01 the ruling powers in that country,
that he would take refuge in the very seat of
Government ?

The accounts from Spain of the progress of MINA
and the Constitutionalists are very satisfactory.
The Cure MERINO, who has distinguished himself
more by the courageous pertinacity with which he
has baffled his pursuers than the greatness of his
exploits, has at length been taken prisoner. From
the frequent notice taken of the Duke of W IL•
LINGTON'S constant attendance at the conferences
of the Foreign Ministers at Verona, it may be in-
ferred that England exercises a considerable influ-
ence over their deliberations.

A slight decline took place in the French funds
on Monday ; but private letters mention they left
off at the pricey quoted in our last.

It appears from Quebec Papers to the 3011 e last,
that illy proposal for uniting the two Conadas is
strongly opposed. On the wit • meeting of the
citizens of Quebec Md 4 he•ld at the Union Hotel ru
that city, at which the Hon. Louis DI SALABZIRY
presided, when it was resolved to appoint a Com-
mittee of thirty persons to prepare a Petition to his
MAJESTY and the two Muses of Parliament against
the Union.

The following copy of a letter from Verona,
gives strong assurances that peace will be pre-
served ; that the Congress will not sit beyond the
end of the present mouth ; •ud that • declaration
may he expected to be published by all the Powers
the beginning of neat mouth :

" ♦ERONA. NOVEMBER 10.

" The Congress proceeds with all possible dis-
patch on the discussion and arrangement of the dif-
fetent objects submitted to it. It ban been re-
marked that the conferences have been within these
few days more frequent still longer, on purpose, as
it is conjectured, to bring the deliberations to a
speedier conclusion, iii order to put an end to the
mantruvres of those who seek to alarm and agitate
the public mind in different countries.
" The utmost cordiality subsists, and it is un-
derstood that the find arrangement will be favour-
able to the maintenance of peace. The settlement
of the points that related to Turkey is believed to
he on the point of taking place. if it has not already
taken place, and Spain will nu longer present
any serious obstacles. Whatever cause of complaint
France might have, it is affirmed that she has yield-
ed to the general necessity and desire fur peace,
which has been urged by the united representations
of Austria, Russia, Prussia, and Great Britain.
" It is expected that the Congress well not sit
longer than the end of November or the beginning
of December ; and that, early in December. a de-
claration will be published by all the Allied
Powers, calculated to settle and satisfy the different
nations of Europe with respect to all their views and
objects."
Such is the letter from Verona. It has been al-
ready stated in this Paper, that upon the represen.
twions of the French Government, the Cortes had

•greed to abandon the intention attributed to them
of bringing the brothers of the King to trial.
We expect some further decisive intelligence
daily.

The money market was rather heavy yesterday
at the opening, and business was very slack. The
Consols opened at 81t, hut the rumour of the ar-
rival of an express from Paris, with an account that
the h'eutes had fallen to 99 f. 5 c. produced a
depression. Other reports were in circulation, all
calculated for a fall. It war said that the King of
FRANCE is seriously ill, and that the Duke of
WELLINGTON has had some misunderstanding
with Count METTERNIcH, the Austrian Minister,
at Verona. Count MsrrEnsteu appears to be
most unfortunate in his relations with the Diplo-
matic Representatives of The affair be-
tween him and Lord STEwART, new Marquis of
LONDONDRNRT, made a great noise at the time,
The business in the foreign market was rather
slack in the morning of yesterday. Swinish opened

had fallen, the above bonds went (luau to 60 to

The following is a further account
dread-
ful malsdy, from a Philadelphia Paper :

" PHILADELPHIA, OCTOBER 23.

" By the ship Washington, New Orleans Paper,
to the 4'h inst. have been received. On account
of the sickness at that place, no business had been
transacted, and every thing was at a stand. The
New Orleans Board of Health, under date of the
30111 ult. reports 23 death, of yellow fever during
the preceding 24 hours."
The statement, which lately appeared in the Jour-
nals, that the Archduchess MARIA LOUISA, late
Empress of FRANCE, had made her appearance at
Verona, has no doubt been noticed by most of our
reoders. We have heard that she appears there to
claim from the Allies the execution of the Tests-
mentary Dispositions of NAPOLEON in favour of her
Son, mid that this claim has occasioned very great
embarrassment to the French Minister there.—
( Evening Paper.)
The turn which the late elections have taken in
France is evidently favourable to the war putty;
though there perhaps may be sortie among the new
Members who might be inclined to moderate coun-
sels. We hear also of a singular organization that
has a warlike aspect. It is said that fifty men out of

made the attempt ; and in about two boors suc-
ceeded in walking, or rather crawling, to his home,
