his present absence from his beloved subjects will be seen in
this point of view only, as he has just given the greatest per-
sonal proofs of a moderation seldom met with in history.
Offended at'a neighbouring Power, which seemed to have laid
*lt down as a rule, to depart froM those principles, which, with
all other deviations from ordinary forms; could alone place it
in the rank of an European Power, the great heart of the Em-
peror preferred counting the drops of blood which the pur-
suance of his just claims to satisfaction
_must have caused to
flow. Elevated above the sensations innate in the nature of
man and of Sovereigns, the Ruler of the greatest empire on
earth resolved to follOw only his own feelings for the peace and
happiness of nations, and to illustrate his name by the greatest
example of moderation, that so mighty a Monarch could leave
to posterity. Even the prospect of a great increase of power
could not induce his Majesty to sacrifice his pure principles to
ordinary policy.. The Emperor needed it not to make Russia
more'llappy, and that was sufficient for him not to expose the
welfare of this quarter of the globe to new dangers.
There needs but a short review of the history of our times to
prove to the world how the Emperor himself is ready to open
his heart to any new views of national prosperity. The Con-
stitution given to the Polish nation must convince all Europe
of this, for the Emperor gave it freely from the impulse of his
own paternal heart. But he did not let his work rest here.
He proved in Warsaw that he was magnanimous enough to
remain unchanged even when the result of his generous resolu-
tion did ndt perfectly answer his expectation. It was hnpos-
sible more clearly to manifest the implicit will, to gain the love
of his people. . •

With all these feelings for the happiness of the world, the
Emperor cannot approve when individuals, or.perhapi associa-
tions of individuals, throw obstacles in the way of such high
purposes, through an unhappy love of disorders, or perhaps
from a wish to promote their private interest, and thereby per-
haps to endanger the tranquillity and peace of nations. Ever
since there have been Governments and people, there have
existed forms, the sacred inviolability of which insured the
peaceful existence of both. To destroy. them with inconsi-
derate hands is a crime committed against nations. What
Monarch, what reasonable man, what reflecting people, could
approve of it? The Cosmopolite must dread its existence.
But who can deny that such a crime does exist ; and what
citizen, regardful of his domestic happiness, will not be alarmed
at it ?

If the Emperor of Russia held out his august hands,, in
conjunction with his most illustrious Allies, to conjure every
storm that threatened danger to the happy citizen, he acquires
a claim, to his gratitude, and that of his posterity. Present
and future ages must pay him this tribute—history will im-
mortalize his memory like that of a Titus.
The object of the Meeting of the august Monarchs and their
Representatives at Wienna and Verona, after what has now
been said, cannot be a secret to the world, because the Emperor
Alexander has taken the resolution to attend it in person.—
Though the details of-the negociations may be reserved for a
future period—though the means to attain the noble object
may be subject to manifold discussion, the main point itself is
indubitable ; since Europe has seen • that the Founder of that
Holy Alliance, which originated on the Banks of the Seine,
has exerted himself practically to confirm the principles laid
down in it,. and' still farther to confirm them by his present
journey.

The Russian nation blesses, therefore, the resolution of its
generous Sovereign, even though it must be for a time de-
prived of the benefits which it daily receives from the hands
of its Monarch. With high and well founded pride, it will
strew the way by which its beloved Sovereign returns with
the flowers of its boundless gratitude.— (Bremen Gazette,.

LUNBERG, B.—Of 2,000 houses which had been
spared by the preceding fires at Jassy, only 80 are now stand-
ing, besides a principal wing of the Palace.of the Prince. This
misfortune was not caused by accident or negligence (for every
third house was in flames at once), but by cold-blooded calcu-
lation ; it was wished to remove the Prince's residence from
Jassy to the town of Roman, about 16 leagues to the west; 75
Turks perished in the flames, victims to their own rapacity ;
how many Christians cannot be determined. For some weeks
past, many Greeks have come through here ; "their route marked
in their paSsports is to Vienna and Ancona.' Three thousand
more are said to be coming from Odessa, all fugitives and
sailors from all the provieces and islands of ancient Greece.
They are equally poor and moderate; a handful of fruits and
apiece: of dry bread satisfy their wants. All those who can
give any satisfactory account of the object of their journey (they
all want to pass for merchants) receive their pdssperts without
any difficulty. But a few really suspicious individuals are
refused.

PIEDMONT ESE PAPERS.

Piedmontese Papers to the 19th ult. have been
received, from which we make the following ex-
tracts :

" Preparations are actively making at Verona, for the recep-
tion of the Allied Sovereigns and their Ministers. • Their arrival
has been delayed, in consequence of -the laMented death of the
Marquis of Londonderry, whirls riecesSarilyprotractCd the pe-
nod of the preliminary ;conferences at Vicuna..
" NAPLES SEPT. 7.—Wc have before us a letter of Very
recent date, August 27, from Corfu, respecting, the affairs of
Gr‘ece. We extract the following paragraph from it :L.-.
• ":‘ The affairsof the Greeks go on badly. lire do not know
where their squadron is. Swop. .personS relieve that it is dis-
persed through the Archipelago, for the purpose of taking on
board and savor; their unfortunate fainilies.'
" We haVe not for some -time past received any news from
Missolunghi; and tiler( fire refrain from • giving an account of
what has passed in the Vorea ; vie shall say only, that that
town is blockaded by a division of the Turkish squadron, ,the
remainder of which is partly at Patras, and partly cruising in
- the Archipelago.
" The TiceConsuls of Foreign Powers, fearing the disasters
reserved for Missolunghi, have withdrawn from it; the inhabi.:
tents are flying in all directions, seeking a refuge in the neigh-
bouring Mountains.
"VEncirTA, SEPT. 11.---We are now certain that we shall
have the Congress here, and it will be in a slant time. Baron
Maier is already arrived, to prepare a residence for their. En-
perial Majesties the Emperor and Empress of Austria; The
Palace is not determined upon. Some are for that of Legation,
• with the addition of the Hotel della Torre ; some for the Palace
Emilj, with the addition of the Palace Pellecrrini, arid some for
the Casa Marioni, .with part of the Casa 'AIM. The latter
seems to be preferred, on account of its situation, though it is
not large. The Count Goez states, that the Casa Canosa is not
thought of. Our Bishop has offered his Palace gratis to the
Legation of his Holiness.
