se decree was
renewed three days afterwards, but unfortunately it
did not proauce a satisfactory result.
The carps of cannomeers that have come here is
rather undisciplined. They gut into the gardens
and fields, and ("et down indiscriminately the trees
they meet with, Which they carry to the city for
their owe use.
Os the 9th of January, the Paella walking ale g.
met twenty Turks armed with hatchets, whom, lie
tseased to be taken before him. Soon acterwards'be
met, twenty others carrying wood. The Turks,
totting punishment, fled, and the Pacha ordered
ad this wood to be lodged in the citadel; but the
nest morning all the troops, after having consulted
together and taken their arms,, joined in one body
and went to the castle, of which they took posses-
sion, firing their nieces in the air as a sign of dis-
content, and holdinginsolent language. The Go-
vernment thought it pendent to yield to aircum-
stances.; •it sent to the mutineers Elea Apt, the
.Mufti, and the Cadi, to arrange the aids, and.traus
quillity w.ts restored. •
On the 14th and 15th some Greek vessels, -em-
ploye:l to convey away the garrison of Napoli di
Bonamia, landed part of the garrison here. About
fifty of these soldiers going out into the town, their
presence and their accounts caused u considerable
fermentation, but no unpleasant consequences fol-
lowed.
On the 26;11, at eight in,the evening, the air re-
sounded on all sides with the discharge of fire-arms.
There was a general alarm in the town, and every
Ludy sought refuge in the residence of the Consuls.
To the continual discharge of pistols wail midst] u
frightful noise, occasioned by loudly and repeatedly
staiLing sonorous bodies. At length we learnt that
it was nothing but an eclipse of the moon, and that '
all this noise was made to frighten the &begun that •
ests ;,ping to devour that lummari.
O.t the 27th, a woman was walking in the street
with green shoes on. Two Turks asked her how she
dared to wear such shoes? " Bscause ldo not
Isar soul' she replied, and walked on ; upon which
cue ut the Turks barbarously fired a pistol at her.;
a surgeon extracted the ball, which fortunately did
not penetrate very deep. On the 29th, the Paella
issued a f,rnial ender that every Greek who should
he employed to work in the citadel, or elSewhere,
should be regularly r::1.1. He has convoked the
I,i-inlets's of the twenty-six mastic villages, and has
r.spiired of.irem, for his own justification, a decla-
rattan that tl*,did not pay this year the tribute of
mastic to Itherrovernment, which, in its paternal
solicitude, excused them fbr it. At the same time
infunned them, that next year they would have
to nay this:tribute tither au kind or mosey.

Governments to fill the Episcopal Sees in the Eccle-

the purpose of consulting them on this occasion,
Mr. Sclunits Grottcnberg, Counsellor of State and
Anibusiador to the Cott of Munich, said Mr. Jou-

Wirtemburg at the Ecclesiastical Committee which
lOU at Frankfort, fur the organization of the Catho-
lic Wurshis, and the sat:cation of the Papal Bulls
issued on the stlbject.
It is well known that the King of Wirtemburg
has frequently expressed a wish to :ice this affair
finally arranged, and the Court of Stutgard has
• taken great pains to accomplish this object. We ore
t:terelore curious to learn what our government will
resolve on this occasion, as the refusal of the Papal
Court to confine) k their dignity, the Bishops pro-
posed, the finalmonization of the Catholic Church
is u great part-utTrotestant Germany, is again ad-

LONDON, MONDAY, MAY 6.
After three nights of heavy debate in the House
of Commons upon Mr. Macdonald's motion for a
censure upon Ministers, for not going to war to
protect Spain—the motion was withdrawn, and Mr.
Stuart Wortley's amendment cart ied by an immense
majority, which would have amounted to nearly an
unanimity, if some Members had nut been shut in
the House by chance. This amendment is declar-a
tory of the censure o: the aggression of France, and
the agitation of the question has afforded an oppor-
tunity to all parties—to Whigs, Tories, mid Radi-
cals:to declare the unqualified and undivided con-
demnation of the villanous principles of The Holy
Alliance, as well as the disgust and execrations with
which the enormity of France is regarded.—We
still think we have to feei gratitude to our Govern-
ment, for adhering to its pacific resolution.

Madrid Papers of the 15th ult. have just arrived.
Count Abisbal is titling active measures to disperse
.and punish the rebels that infest that district. His
army consists of nearly 16,000 men, and probably
will soon come in contact with the force under
Quesada, should it approach the citadel. The
hitherto unresisted progress of the French arises
from the premeditated and judicious policy of the
commanders of the Spanish army. The further
the French advance, the more will be their embar-
rassment and the difficulty of obtaining resources.
Not the least hint is given of the movements or
of of Mina, but should Ballus►cros form a
junction with him, Marshal Moncey and his divi-
sion will soon find themselves in jeopardy. The
sudden dissolution of the impudent and self-elected
" Supreme Junta," which accompanied the Duke
of Angouleme, and which has been ordered by
him to cease its functions, has dismayed their ad-
herents, as their artogaat proclamations have dune

infinite mischief titistiVren el cause, which is do.,
-becoming mare and more unpopular in Spain..-. •
.
The vast expences of France in prosecuting thelis. •
sent odious war of aggression, are estimated ,t4liikt,.
•
thousand pounds sterling per diem. This is very
probable, as they can draw no resources from Spain,
and must depend totally on those drawn from their
own country. lhe best battle the Constitutionalists
can fight at present is to endeavour to intercept the
supplies in evesY.dixection for the -French army, as
this would be'a stiri Of warfare .perfectly agreeable
to the insurgent banditti, who are regardless whom
they rub and plunder, whether friends or enemies,
Notwithstanding all the pulling and boasting of the
trench Ultra .papers, the aflitirs of Spain present an
animating and Satisfactory appearance.
Letters dated 21st ult. were received on•
Thursday from Passages, a small village on the
coast of Spain, closely adjoining St. Sebastian's. No
official accounts appear to have been circulated there
of the celebrated sortie of the 9thj but the letters
state that the Spaniards behaved in the noblest
manner, and that the loss of the French on that
occasion to have been between 700 and 800 men.—
It is added, subsequently to the 9th three other
sorties had been made by the garrison, in which,
though compelled to retire within the fort, the
Spanish troops greatly distinguished Ow—

Of these, it should be observed, no notice has ap.
peared in the French papers. The number of the
garrison of St. Sebastian's amounted to 9,0013 men,
and they were stipplied with provisions for five
months. The French army, it is said, on their first
entering Spain, had rendered Themselves extremely
o'moxious to the inhabitants by cutting down the
apple tiees for fuel, with which the country near
the coast abounds ; but had afterwards cstabli,hed
better discipline, and paid liberally for every snide
for the consumption of the army.

Letters from Rio Janeiro of the 24th of February
represent a considerable degree of distrust to prevail
among the public generally, as to the designs of the
new Imperial Court, which is suspected of certain'
legitimate propensities, not over-favourable to the
interests or integrity of the Constitution. If any
attempt to restore, or rather to continue, despotic
power, be exhibited, great confusion, it is said, will
take place, there being a strong party for a republic,
and many of the provinces more than hail inclined
to break off the connexion with Rio Janeiro, and to
set each upon its own bottom. The installation of
the Cortes was looked for on the 26th of February,
and mtr:t evil anticipated io case of that event be-
ing any longer postponed. An embassy was to
proceed to N'ienna, to announce to the Emperor
Francis the birth of a grand-daughter, on the 17th
of February ; and, perhaps, besides that formal ob-
ject, to feel the pulse of the'Cabinet of _Vienna,
touching a recognition of the independence of Brazil
upon the mother country. Portugal being now in
bad odour with the Holy Allianee, the time has
probably not been ißchosen for such a diplomatic
esneriment.—We have received a copy of a Go-
verment proclamation, or rather address, to the
Brazilians, the tenour of which corroborates the in-
telligence transmitted by the private letters. In
other respects, it is only remarkable for its declama-
tion against those who Are supposed to be inimical
to the measures of " Pedro, the incomparable hero.
the perpetual defender, the demi-god of Brazil."
The parties in opposition to the Government arc
characterized as " Carbonari," and " partisans of
the disorganizing Cortes of Lisbon." It is asserted
that Deputies are'daity arriving from the provinces,
and that the Constituent Assembly will soon be in-
stalled, notwithstanding that the vile calumniators
continue to say that " the Emperor and Ids Minis•
ters are despots—that they w:dit no constitution,
and that if one be framed, it will be something to
suit themselves."
There is a certainty of his Majesty's visiting •
Portsmouth during the summer. He will embark
in the Royal George, the officers of the Apollo having
been appointed to her, the officers of the Royal
George having most of them other appointments.
The moorings ordered to be l.id down will be at
Spithead, Cowes, and Southampton water, it being
the King's intention to keep in smooth water,within
the Wight, at the recommendation of Sir W.
Knighton.
' The young gentleman who has accompanied Sir
Robert Wilson to Spain,
is not one of the suns, but
a grandson, of Lord Erskine.

TER .1;(11VD8, SATURDAY.
• HALT-PAit Two oTtoca•
Consols hive been done at 781—noW Tnai—
tnarket looking up—and all the Bears buying in
their accounts.
It is to be observed, that although Consols have
been done 78i for account, they have not been
under 7SI ft.r money, at any time this day.
The orders, both town and country, for purchases
of money stock, continue to flow in.
Spanish has been done at 34—hut the declara-
tion of two jobbers, not indeed of the 111fteaity
breed, but still of magnitude suflicieat to affect the
market, brought Spanish down to 35. The market
has, however, rallied, and the present pricy, of
Spanish Bonds is 35i-36—market excellent. The
quantity of actual money purchases to-day, has
been unprecedented., This is attributable, to the
Unprecedented difficulty experienced by the Bears,
in obtaining bonds at almost any price) fob delivery
to the Bulls—whose demands an no longer be
evaded.
Colombian stands in a situation similar—the
money buyers insisting on delivery. Hence,
these bonds have adviniced from 651 to 661—not-
withstanding which, the supply is inadequate to
the demand for delivery.

Extract of a private letter from Constantinqle,
bated March 10. 1823.—" A curious paper it said
to have been lately presztaed to the Sultan. This
paper or document is nothing less than a writing
which was Mund by a guardian of the tomb at
Mecca, to whom Mahornet appeared at Midnight,
whilst he was reusing the Koran near the tomb;
after the Prophet had made him understand the ob-
ject of his appearance, by telling him how much
the mitconduct of his people had troubled him, he
observed that since the late commotlens /70,000 of
his people had gone into the ether world, out cof
which number only seven individuals had been
found faithful ; that the remainder, by their neglect
of prayers, giving themselves up to luxurious plea-
sures, moat of care of the poor, and indifference
towards the Ullimabs, or Heads of the Faith had
thus forfeited his regard and inteicession ! The
'gaper then continues deploring this fallen state of
his flock, and predicting several events which are to
occur, bueb as the disappearance of the sun, mis-
conduct of the women, loss of the Koran, and con-
cludes with a mandate, that this warning be copied
and spread from city to city, and village to village,
throughout the Ottoman Empire. This is likewise
to have the double effect of giving flesh vigour to
• their endeavours to put down their enemies, u more
rigid perfOrmance m their religious duties, as well
as to keep them from molesting the unotfending.-a-
The guardian of the tonib was directed by Maltumet
to Ibrw.iid the paper to the Sultan. The event to
which I allude as giving weight to the tOrcgeing
curious circumstance, was the awful and destructive
fire on the Ist of March.

PARLIAMENTARY Ritmo si.—From a comparison
of the minorities on Lord John Russell's three mu-
liens for Parliament:iry Reform, it appears that of
the 121 members who supported that question in
1821, there am 10 where natnes do nut appear in
either ot the stAtsequent divisi .is; and that of the
164 in 1822, 27 (besides two paired off) were nut
in the division of 1823; so that no less than 208
militias of the resent House of Commons have,
within the last two years, voted for a reform in Par-
liament.

His Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex, Most
Worshipful Grind Master of England, has appoint-
-1%1 the Most Noble his Grace Charles Duke of Rich-
t tnond Provincial Grand Master fur Sussex, which

appointment has been accepted by his Grace.
The election of officers of the grand lodge of free-
mason% fhr the ensuing year, took place An Thurs-
day last at Freemasons -hall,where a greater number
of the brethren of the order assembled than has

been known for many years on a similar occasion.—
His Royal Highness the Duke of SuKsex was, for
the twenty-fifth time elected Grand Master.—
Nearly five-hundred masonic brothers, among whom
were the Dukes of Athol and Leinstet, seveial

noblemen and provincial grand masteri, sat down to
an excellent dinner. Tile company, as Well as a
'timber of elegantly dressed ladies in the gallery,
were entertained by some admired aunts, catches,
anti glees," by several professional gentlemen.--;•
Brother Attwond presided at the Itarpinkhotil. His
Royal Highness Was in excellent,health and spirits,
and largely contributed to the conviviality and har-
mony of the meetings
Opinions have recently been promulgated in Par-
liament, and circumstances have occurred, that show
our political connection with the Holy Alliance is
much greater than is generally imagined. This
mint lead to embarrassment with raped to the
courtesy shewn to Foreign Ministers, to the recep-
tion in such cases must differ as to the Ministers of
Austria, Russia, and Prussia, and the attention shown
to the Ambassador of spain. The etiquette ob-
served at Levees and Drawing-rooms must, of
course, be affected, when there appears to be a great
diversity of opinion on important subjects in the
courtly and ministerial circles, and must prevent
them, we imagine, from being held so lifted kilo they
otherwise would.
On Wednesday and Thursday a most interesting
.ceremony was performed by various ladies of dis-
tinction at the Crown and Anchor Tavern, in pro-
motion of the London Society for promoting
Christianity among the Jews. The room was fitted
up in a neat style, and stalls were placed Mond the
room, so as to give the place the appearance of a
Bazaar, on which were placed fanciful articles of
var;ous descriptions ; such as &ills bedsteads, pin-
cushions, fans, purses, scissors, reticules, baby linen,
&r. the productions of the objects of the Society in
the country. The ladies who attended are friends
to the institution, and sat each day from 12 to five
o'clock, during which period 700 to 1000 persims
visited the room, consisting of ladies and gentlemen,
who did not confine themselves to the mere value of
the trifling article, but paid round sums, in order
to contribute to the funds of the charity. The
ladies were elegantly attired, and exerted every
effort to gain customers to the shop, and the,. did
not fail in their object. The society was established
in the year 1809, and since that period has nict with
considerable success. The scriptures have ben
widely disseminated among this class of persons, the
effect of which has been very great. The produce of
the articles disposed of will atibrd extensive means
to the funds of the institution. It was pleasing to
witness so much beauty and splendour uniting their
efforts in the promotion of so desirable and charitable

en object.
An official account was exhibited on Friday at the
Foreign Stock Exchange, of the proceedings that
have taken place in Chili, relative to the loan con-
cluded in this country. The Supreme Director,

money which might have belonged to him as head
of the executive power, until a national bank shall
be established, the managers of which would be
charged with the management of all again, connected
with the loan, the payment of the interest, and its
redemption: An order was made for tke deposit of
the money, ad intrrim, in the Treasury of the Mint,
at the sole dispbsal of the house.

• A letter from Perpignan, dned April 23, says—
" The Priests and Monks who set out in great haste
to return to their homes, have stopped on the fron •
tier. Those at Oita have sent an express to their
friends who remain at Pe.rpignan, to tell there nut
to stir, as Llobera occiipies Olot With a considerable
corps, and Mina is assembling a strong army at
Vich."
Albw days ago the Royal College of PhysLians
were presented with a human heart, which was
found in sarcophagus dug out of the ruins of art
Egyptian temple, and which still retains its full
size and fleshy softness. The sarcophagus was im-
ported into Malta before being opened, where its
contents Wert explored in the presence of several
persons, and some of the medical men of the island.
The most persevering force of the hammer and chisel
was required before the lid of the sarcophagus could
be removed. It *as found to be filled with a bitu.
urinous mattter, and containing a ttuid of the colour
and appearance of old port wine, and which fluid
immediately enveloped this most unique relic of
human mortality. The heatt is now preserved kit
spirits in the usual Mariner of anntortlital prepara-
tions The fluid is kept in a phial separately, and
according to the analysis of Sir•Humplary Davy.
consists principally of vegetable extractive matter
with a portion of resin. •
In St. Petersburgh there were Ildt eating-bousiii,
or restaurateurs, 1.52 of which have been closed by
the police, since the tat of March'. This probably
arose from the Government apprehending that they
were places *here persons assembled that might de-
liver their opinions too freely on political subjects.
