LONDON, MONDAY, MAY is.
Three o'clock, ion.
The Paris papers of Thursday state, that a courier
arrived at Sc. Petersburgh with dispatches from M.
Tatischef, at Vienna, which were considered of the
highest importance; but no particulars had trans-
pired. It is now said, in contradiction to ull the
atoekjobbing report► of last week, that strong ex-
pectations were entertained at Vienna, that a pacific
arrangement would take place among the neighbour-
. ing powers. The Greeks are making groat and,
we hope, successful efforts to subdue their enemies,
and the Provisional Government is evidently ac-
quiring energy, consistency, and strength. The
Greek peasantry are inspired with the spirit of Li-
berty, and have come forward, on beirg called upon,
with patriotic zeal is the north of Thessuly and
Upper Macedonia, to resist the repeated attempts of
the Paella of Suloniehi to deprive them of their
arms, and formed a body of 7000 men, including
the best sharp-shooter? in Greece, and under the
command of Captain Tassos, Diamentes, and Saphi-
rakes, proceeded, in the first instance, to occupy the
defiles of Mount Olympus, the valley of Tempe,
and the banks of Pellet's ; and thence, their num-

berg increasing on their march, traversed.the country
as far as Killiderven, on the sea coast. The Mace-
donian army then commenced the siege of Berrhue.
A body of Turks sent to its relief by the I'acha of
Salonichi, were defeated, and the place surrendered
tut the 24th of March. An entrenched camp, oc-
cupied by the Turkish troops, under the walls of
Patras, is said to have been forced by the Greeks,
who, after killing a cousiderable number of the
enemy, carried off 4.0 pieces of field artillery sent
from Constantinople, and a quantity of ammunition.
The President of the Greek congress has notified to
the Agents of the European Powers, that all the
ports of Crete are in a state of blockade. Napoli di
Romanis was on the point of capitulating at the
date of the latest advices from Zante (the 4th April.)
The new elections for Paris commenced on Thurs-
day, with the same spirit and anxiety that charac-
terise popular elections in this country.

The death of the Archbishop of Armagh was oc-
casioned by an unfortunate mistake—two phials had
been lett with the porter, the one containing a me-
dicine which had been ordered for the Archbishop,
the other containing two ounces of laudanum fur
the porter's own use--the latter was given, by the
man's error, to the butler, who was sent to him
to enquire alter the medicine, and having unhappily
been admivi,tered produced the fatal event.—A
coroner's inquest has sat upon the bo ly and returned
a verdict of " died in cousequetev of laudanum
having been administered by mistake."
German papers to the sth instant have reached
us. The Frankfort Journal contradicts, in very
pointed terms, an account published in the Allge-
tneinc Z2ilung, relative to Prince Michael Suzzu,
and the formation of a corps of Hetarists in Russia.
the Russian Government• it states, bad no right to
prescribe to the Prince where he should go to; and,
with respect to the latter, nothing was done or in-
trnded, farther than granting an asylum to these
unfortunate persons. The committee appointed by
the Austrian Government in 1816, for the purpose
of superintendhig the redemption of the paper cur-
rency, has been dissolved, its object having been ful-
filled. This measure will produce to the State a
saving of Bu,ooo florins, and it will increase the
dividend of the B.wk shares. A new loan is spoken
of in Vienna, but it is not known who will obtain it.
The Prince cud l'rincess of Deninatk are to have
apartments assigned to them in the King's cottage,
in Windsor Park, or in Cumberland Lodge, which
is contigeius to it, during the Ascot Heath races;
and in case the young Princess should accompany
her brother to Ergland, Mr. Nash will resign that
part of the lodge, occupied by him at present, fur
the accommodation of the Royal visitors.

MADRID PAPERS.
Madrid papers to the 29th April have been re-
ceived. The following extracts go far to shew that
the French Government is exerting itself to foment
disturbances in tloo North of Spain :
Muneta, Arnim 22 —ln the night of the 20th, a
division of 100 men went in pursuit of the bandit
Jaime, who has appeared again at the head of a
body of 150 to 200 in number. It seems that the
above division, commanded by Capt. Chacon, will be '
joined by 100 men of the regiment of Malaga.—
Jaime, with S 6 men, foot and horse, entered J umilla,
and overthrew the Stone (of the Constitution) in the
sight of the numerous inhabitants, who patiently
suffered it. At Beniel, three leagues from this city,
the Stone was pulled down in the night by some of
the people themselves. At Abanilla and Fortuna,
they were expecting that Jaime would do the same,
though in these places preparations were making for
defence.—Friday's irost from Madrid a as intercepted
by Jaime, and yesterday afternoon the letters ar-
rived, all torn and disordered, which he sufficed to
pass. On the same day a report was spread that the
image of Jesus of Nazareth sweated blood. Our
prudent Bishop preached yesterday, to persuade the
people of the filly of believing such a story, which is
spread by people who never attended mass in their
lives.

BARCELONA, Alum 18 —By letters from Figue-
ras, we know that the band of Mises is increasing
daily. The political chief, Don Peral, who had ar-
rived at that town, was preparing to go in pursuit
of him, but the want of troops will probably delay
the extermination of the factious. Under such cir-
cumstances, it seems that one of the regiments in
garrison at Barcelona should be employed in this
service, but we see with grief that there is no ap-
pearance that a measure will be taken, which is so
urgently called for, to maintain public order and
tranquillity in this province.
According to the accounts which we receive, the
number of factions is considerable, who advance from
various parts towards Gerona, armed with English
muskets. Their uniform is a scarlet jacket, a cross
on the arm, with a crown of laurel, and short velvet
breeches. Those assembled about Bettoria are com-
manded by a priest and a friar. Some affirm that
they are recruiting in other parts of the Valles ; and
it is also affirmed that many French deserters join
them : from all we hear, we inft.r that the conspi-
racy is more serious than it has been.
APRIL 20. E-The letters which we receive by this
post from Figueras, Gerona, and Berge, do but con-
firm the importance of the conspiracy which has been
preparing fur some time. Captain Arango, who
marched from Figueras, fell in with a party, which
he attacked and dispersed, killing two, and taking
one prisoner. Misas was at Llarona with 150 men.
By accounts front Gerona of the 17th, small bodies
of peasants arrived from all quarters to reinforce the
Army of the Faith. The night before last 50 men
passed by Salrac, going towards Alisac, and last
night above 100, by San Gregorio.—The Prefect of
I Perpignan has sent word that he does not know that
there are any factious Spaniards in his department ;
but if there are, they shall be sent out of it.
From Berge we hear that the Chief Muntaner has
arrived at Paten, coming from Peipignan, with a
passport to leave France; he was the head of the
insurgents in those parts last September, and his re-
turn to Spain is doubtless arranged with his parti-
zans. We know that the authorities yesterday
received this news, and we du not doubt but that
they wiil be convinced of the importance of what is
passing, and that bayonets are the only means to
arrest the pmgress of a fitction which is much more
formidable than it was on the .25th of last
and will daily become inure so, and cause incalcula-
ble injury, unless troops are sent, and march with
the rapidity of lightning to attack them.
MAORI', APRIL 19.—S umero us letters have been
received front Alicant, Monousa-, Oricheula, and
Murcia, relating many excesses committed by Jaime
in the provinces of Murcia and Alkant. On the
22d, he appeared a quarter of a league from Ori-
heula, when 60 men of the first regiment of Cata-
lonia, and many of the militia went out to attack
the banditti, whom they put to flight in a few mi-
nutes, taking five prisoners, some horses and arms,
and u purple standard, with a green cross. 'the
most remarkable circumstance in this affair is the
change of character which Jaime has assumed, ap-
pearing as an enemy to the Constitution, atter hav-
ing been su long a robber on the highway. There
are innumerable conjectures on this subject.
