BRAZIL.

By the Rob Roy, arrived at Liverpool from Pa-
raiba, which port she left on the Sth of September,
we have anise interesting intelligence from the
northern provinces of Brazil. The dates from
Pernambuco ettend to the latter end of August,
where it was ascertained that the squadron from
Rio de Janeiro, finding the Portuguese troops
had anticipated them in entering Baltic, had landed
the soldiers and arms at Alagoas, a port between
Bahia and Pernambuco, to which latter place the
squadron had afterwards proceeded. Accounts had
been received from Bahia of the 23d of August :
both there and at Pernambuco, the Manifests° and
Decree of the Prince Regent, issued on the Ist of
August at Rio de Janeiro, had been received. AtPer•
oanibuco they were immediately made public, and
were followed by a proclamation signed by Ferreire
the President. and the other members of the Provi-
sional Junta. declaring their perfect accord with the
sentiment, of the Prince Regent, and their dispo.
sition Waist! him their entire support. At Bahia no
notice was taken by the authorities of the arrival of
the documents from Rio. No mut of iniport-
ance had oceure.ci we Bahia, the Portuguese troops
remaining in possession of the town, towards which,
however, the coustitutioual forces had advaricrd
from the hitt/vier to within the distance of a league
and a half. They would receive • formidable
accession to their force by the troops lauded at
Alagoas, who, though few in number themselves,
yet having brought near 5,000 stand of arms, would
lout them into the hands of the inhabitauts. who
were said to be almost unanimous is their attach-
ment to the Independent party. 'lke Bank at
Bahia having refused to pay in silver to any one
in-
dividual beyond the amount of 30 mikes's, an im-
pression was produced among the merchants that
that estebli•hment was iti reality not solvent ; but a
statement was promptly made public by them,
from which it appeared that the step had only been
taken in consequence of the peculiarly critical state
of the place, but that they were fully able, a little
delay being vented. to meet all demands upon
them, showing clearly by • summary of the state of
their affairs. that the amount of their notes in cir-
culation did root exceed 285,000 mires., while they
held effects exceeding in value 800,000 milress ;
but which, owing to the general agitatioo, could
not be iinmedisrely realiz-d. All notes not exceed-
ing 30 mittens coniinued to be paid regularly.
The following is an extract of a letter from Bahia,
dated August it :

Alexander is inclined to put down the revolution by

CONSTANTINOPLR. SEPTEMBER 10.

Since the last post disagreeable news for the Porte
bus arrived from the Morris. The Greeks have de-
strot•ed there more thou 10,000 Turks in persist
battles and sruhriscades. The Turks possess nothing
there but Corinth, which is destitute of every thing
necessary for its detester ; it is therefore probable
that the garrison will soots be obliged to aiirreoder.
Colociptrotii is the Commander-tn-Chief of the
Greeks. All these particulars are rain to he trues
though the Porte studies to conceal them.
At Srio severe! Turks have been executed who
persisted in snassarreing the sick Chn►tians. Ort
the sth of Septem tier there were only 300 Chrivttatia
remaining out of 160,090.

The Purte Iwo,' to feel, in a ressikple winner,
the inconveniences of the Creek insurrection; there
are no more rich Greeks to wonder, which her iii-
doced the Treisarer of the Empire to take a des-
perate measure. A Firman has appeared, srliskti
orders every thing suede of gold or silver to he de-
posited in the Treii•ory for an indemnity, wh,eli
arbitrarily hied. Thus the Mimehues muot re-
nounce every species of !usury, sod wear the most
simple dresser.
It is easy to see the causes of this triesenre. No
more tsars are gathered la the Mores, in the talandr.,
or in a great pert of Thes•aly, of Albrois, and of
Macedunit. Thor the mireries of the times will
reach even the Masselnert is a short time if the

Perris also causes great expecte.
Great tranquillity prevail, at Coostroloinoplo,
and there us but few perverts troubled troth the

After the departure of the Turkish fleet for
Papas, the Porte prepared • second expedition,
which was to appear in the Archipelago at the time
when the Greek fleet, pursuine that of the Turks,
should be in the Inman sea. 'Chi, expeds.
tioti was composed of forty transport•, with three
frigates. and one three-decker. There were o•i
board 8,000 troops, which, finding the A►chiprlsg.i
free from the squadrons of Spri:i• ad Hydra,
were to lie landed on the coast of Napoli di Rotuma'.
in order that they might join the Tietknift army,
which had penetrated into the Mores. At the sense
time it was expected to supply Napoli di Romania,
Which was supposcil to be in the baud. of the
Turks, amply with provisions.
The Admiralty at Hydra, informed of all this.
instead of send ng their ships to Patna, sent them
against this err ((((( I expedition. The Creek fleet,
on quitting Hydro, torrerulert its tflOsessents be-
tween the emits of Attica and Negrupotit„ and
when the Turkish squadron advanced, received it at
the llocrmSilnta, heiwe►n Nrgropont •nd Audros.
