vengeance. The army is eagerfir combat, animated
with holy anger; the people filled with indignation
more almost than in 1812. IL may be affirmed
without exaggeration, that our strength is increased
tentbld by this impulse. If war should break out,
anc army after another, nay the whole mass of the
nation, would fall upon those barbarians who have
hitherto owed their safety to policy alone. Con-
stantinople, attacked by sea or land on three sides at
least would fall, and the Greek empire be re-estab-
lished in a moment.
FROM THE RUSSIAN FRONTIER.

. ....
JULY 19.—This war, if it should break out, will
be a true religious war. Indignation against the
Turks has inflamed all hearts. The whole mass of
the population forms, as it were, a thousand im-
mense armies of reserve. At a sign from the Em-
peror one after another will advance. Th. fate of
the Turks will be absolutely decided this time. We
fear no diversion from Persia. That cautious power
has been taught wisdom; besides sufficient gua-
rantees have been given. The national hatred of
the Persians and the Turks, the opposition of ad-
verse parties in the interior, likewise have an in-
fluenc.:. Austria will join us as Prussia has done ;
at least it will not hinder us from assisting our bre-
thren, for it is interested in the cause. With respect
to the policy of other Powers we know nothing.—
As soon as the war breaks out, we advance, fight,
take Constantinople, and all is settled.
CONSTA DT, JULY 17 —The withdrawing of
Ypsilanti from Walachia, chiefly caused by the de-
sertion and treachery of far the greater part of the
Albanese and Walachians, who composed his army,
but in all probability not wholly unproduced by this
cause, is indeed a severe and almost destructive blow
to the eaterprize in Moldavia and Walachia; but it
would be a great mistake to believe that the affairs
on the. Danube are thereby entirely concluded. Of
Ypsilanti's old corpse, which consisted of 20,000
hantly 1,000 have been killed or severely wounded
in the several actions, who have destroyed in pro-
portion, an immense number of the enemy. Another
1,000 perhaps may have fled into the Austrian ter-
titory. The rest of the army still exists, scattered,
indeed, in different parts. A person who does not
know the nature M the events or the character of
of the contending parties in that country, may
imagine the nffitirs to be at an end. The Turks
have done nothing great or decisive, The insur-
rection still exists, though in a different form. In
Little Walachia the insurgents have almost all the
fortified convents in their hands. Prondan, a Ser-
vian, Captain Diamenteo, and other chief's, gave the
Turks a severe defeat sonic days ago. The Captains
Gorgales, Olympites, and Pharmakes have occupied,
with a very considerable flaw, the mountain posi-
tions near 13useo. Sawa, with nearly 1,200 fermi-
dable warriors, is in the mountains near this frontier.
He is a native of Ramos, well versed in the Turkish
mode of making war, a man of great understanding,
but deserving of malediction, because for trifling
petty reasons, he betrayed his country and his faith
in the most decisive moment. But as he is known
to be a man of great ability, he was always greatly
feared by the Turks. He knows very well that if
he fell into their hands, his award would be behead-
ing or impaling alive. He seems, therefinv, to feel
some remorse, and in the end will probably be
obliged to turn his arms against the cruel enemies of
Christianity. If he does, he will do the Turks much
injury and find them plenty of employment. From
all this it may be inferred, that the insurrection in
Moldavia and ‘Walachia exists nearly in its extent,
and will long continue so. But if the proposed
result of the transactions on the Danube should not
Is.: attained, yet the real object of occupying a large
hostile force will be fully accomplished. Alcantime
the situation of those two principalities is truly
deplorable.

annum, Attn. 21.—His Majesty yesterday held his first
levee at the Castle. The attendance was great beyond example.
At an early hour the line of carriages extended through all the ad.
joining streets, anti nearly 30300 persons were prevented. Tire
Mayors, Sovereigns, Burgesses, and Portreevees of the several
corporate towns, and the High Sheriffs of all the counties a lye.
land, with deputations from each, attended to present addresses
to his Majesty. The whole of the Irish nobility, with a very
considerable portion of its gentry, were present on this first levee
held by the King in his Irish Court. His Majesty arrived in
town from the Park soon after It o'clock; lie was richly dressed
in a field marshal's uniform, with a large black crape on his left
arm, not tied in the usual manner, but fastened with a large drape
rosette. The King wore, as usual, the riband and star of the
order of St. Patrick.• • I
Previous to the levee, his D'ajesty held an investure of the
most illtstriouri order of St. Patrick, which was attended by his
Grace the Lord Primate, and several officers belonging to the
onler. The following noblemen were introduced, when each
received the honour of knighthood, and were invested with the
insignia of that order:—Lund Greavcs. as proxy for his Royal
Highness the Duke of Cumberland. The Marquis of Donegal,
his Excellency Earl Talbot, the Earls of Onnonde, bleach,
Roden, Courtown, and Fingal.
His Majesty aftersards held an investure of the Most Honour-
able Order of the Bath, when Admiral the Honourable Thomas
Pakenham, K. C. 8., received the honour of knighthood, and was
invested with the riband and badge of that most honourable order:
and Sir John Elley, K.C.8., on his attaining the rank of Major-
General, received from his Majesty the star of that degree of the
most honourable order.
The Earls of Clanricanle, Bective, and Mount Charles, are to
have the honour of officiating as Esquires to the Sovereign at the ap-
proaching grand installation. Lords Inlet-vatic, Alexander, and
Thurles, are to act as pages on the same occasion.
Previous to the levee his Majesty sent for the Earl of Fingal,
(the premier Catholic Peer of Ireland), to his closet, and informed
hint, that as a special mark of his regard and esteem, he had
determined to invest his Lordship with the Order of St. Patrick;
and the King added, that he had every reason to feel the highest
satisfaction at tire loyalty and demeanour of the Roman Catholics,
His own sentiments, his Majesty added, were always those of
confidence in that great body of his subjects, and he had uni-
formly felt that the Government had every reason to be satisfied
with their good demeanour as members of the community. The
King further said, that having always entertained those opinions
of them, he could not refrain on the present occasion from sending
for Lord Fingal, to express in person to his Lordship, the high
gratification he felt at now finding all his anticipations respecting
that body fully realized. His Majesty could not, he said, better
express the high sense he entertained of the loyalty of the Catholic
body, than by taking this opportunity of declaring to his Lordship
that their loyalty and duty appeared to him to entitle them to his
Majesty's fullest confidence. The Earl of Fingal expressed his
gratitude to the King for this most gracious communication and
mark of respect, and assured his Majesty that there was no class
in the community upon whose loyalty he could better rely than
that of his Boman Catholic subjects.
Shortly after the noble Earl withdrew, the elders of the Dis-
senters and the Quakers were severally introduced to his Majesty,
who gave them a most gracious reception: the latter suffered
their hats to be taken off before entering the presence. The at-
tendance from the Society of Friends consisted of the most emi-
nent persons of that sect: their plain attire and formal peculiarity
of manner excited much observation among the brilliant cortege
of a crowded court. 'file address of the Quakers was presented
by Air. Simon Bewry, an eminent merchant of this city, attended
by a large body of frisndi—To which his Majesty was graciously
pleased to give the fallowing answer:—
" It is highly satisfactory to me to receive your congratulations
on my arrival in tins part of my kingdom, and your assurance's
of attachment to my person and government.
" The loyalty of your principles, and your regular and peace-
able conduct entitle you to my good opinion and esteem. You
may rely on my constant protection. and on the continuance of
those privileges which you now so justly possess.
Then the following Roman Catholic Prelates were introduced
into the clozet by the Earl of Donouglimore, with their address :wis
The Right Rev. Drs. Murray, Curtis, Troy, Kelly, Plunkett.
Archdeacon, Murphy, and Magowran.
They were not dressed in their full canonicals, as was supposed.
but wore small black silk cloaks, and their gold chains and
crosses. Dr. Murray read their address, which the King re-
ceived in the most gracious and condescending manner—they
all they had the honour of kissing his Majesty's hand. It is a
remarkable circumstance, that on the hack of his Majesty's
answer to the address of these prelate► was endorsed " His Ma-
jesty's most gracious Answer to the Address of the Roman Ca-
tholic lii.rh,pr. This closet reception, and written indursement
upon an official instrument, is deemed by the Catholics to be the
first public recognition of their Clergy " as Bishops" which has
yet occurred since the enactment of the penal restrictions affect-
mg their body.
Ills Majesty returned the following answer :
" I am highly gratified by your congratulations on my arri-
val in this country, and by the sentiments of cordial and dutiful
attac'iment which you have expressed to my person and throne.
" It was my earnest wish, in visiting this past of my mined
kingdom, that an equal degree of satisfaction might be diflUsed
amongst all descriptions of my faithful subjeste in Ireland. 'lliac
wish is happily and fully accomplished ; and I ant persuaded
that no endeavours will be wanting on yonr part to cherish and
preserve that spirit of loyal union which now pervades and aril-.
mates the whole community, and which is not less conducive to
individual and social happiness, than to the strength and pros•
perity of the State."
The following was die answer to the address of the Prcahyte-
rians :
" The sentiments which you have expressed on my arrival in
this part of my dominions, are highly gratifying to me, and are
entitled to my warmest thank,.
" I have the fullest confidence in your faithful and firm at-
tachment toiny person and throne; and you may be assured of
my constant protection of those civil and religious liberties which
are the birthright of my people."
Iminediattly after the addresses had been received, his Excel.
lens the Lord Lieutenant intrixluced the officers of the order i a
St. Patrick, and his Excellency's household to his Majesty, wino
severally die honour of kissing hands.
The above were the only closet addresses presented to his Ma
jesty• They occupied the King until two o'clock • at that hour
his Majesty entered the State rovnis, which was crowded to es.
cuss.
At half past four o'clock the levee closed, and his Majesty
left the Castle for the Park, escorted by two troops of I aincers.—
The King was loudly cheered as he passed through the streets .
his Ithuesty returned these masks of public respect in the most
condescending and affable manner. The drawing room this
night will be atteudel with greater state and splendour than ever
beige marked any such ceremony. All the public institutions
are prepataing for a royal visit.

Aji;sir qf llonotir.—On Thursday se'nnight n
meeting took place at Castleclough, near Killarney,
between Dr. Murphy and Dr. Brennan, of that
town. After an exchange of shots, without injury
to either party, the seconds interfered, and etlectel
a reconciliation.
