AUSTRIAN NEUTRALITY.

MISSOLONGHI, SEPT. 4.—The Greek Journals
contain the following intercepted letters, which
will give some idea of the neutrality of the Aug.
trial) agents:—
" To my dear Friend K. S. S. Vice-Consul of his Majesty
the Emperor of Austria, at Zante.
"My dear Friend—T hasten to inform you that I have re-
ceived, by the hands of M. M. Trani, your letters from the
22d to the 30th June ; as also the numbers, from 3.1 to 43, of
the journal that is printed at Missolonghi. I have also since
received your letters, dated the 2(1 of July, with two numbers
of the same journal, in which I saw, with a smile, their vain
presumption. I am highly obliged to you for your sincere
friendship, and the the services you render no. I hope you will
still maintain the same friendship for us. Inform me of your
welfare, and send me all the news in your power, and also the
Greek newspapers, as soon as possible.
Health and fortune 'attend you,
" The VIZIER. REDISCHID-PACHA MEMEMET,
PACIIA or ItUMELIA, &C. &C.

Letter addressed to Ibrahim Nails :
" Most Serene Highness—l have teceived the letters ad-
dressed to your Highness by his Excellency A hum Effendi,
up to the 3d instant. I hasten to send them to you by a faith-
ful man, who will wait your orders.
" The fanatics of our island continually distort your High-
ness's brilliant exploits, which much afflicts us, and augments
our desire to have direct news from you.
" I hare a regular correspondence with the garrison of Mo.
don ; I regularly transmit to it the news of your victories.—
Were I not to do so, they would be in total ignorance of what
is passing in the Morea.
The Captain of the Austrian galleot Arethusa, upon his
arrival at Suda, gave into the hands of his Ezeellency Ahniet
Effendi, the letters which were addressed to your Highness.—
The same Captain has endeavoured, in person, to convey to
their destination, the letters he had for the Seraskier Pacha ;
but not having been able to succeed, he confided them to me
on his return. .

" I have sent a vessel to Alexandria to make your victories
known to the Viceroy of Egypt.
" I think it now needless to continue my political corres.
pondence with you on the affairs of the Peloponnesus, for your
victories must have enabled you to obtain a personal know-
ledge of the country.
" M. M. Trani, whom I have sent on business to the for-
tresses of the Mores, is directed to present himself your High.
ness, to receive your orders.
" I have the honour, &c.
" G. KOKINI8."

GENERAL LAFAY ET TE.
(From the Quotidienne.)
Much has been said of the triu►nphs and honours
voted to General Lafayette for his exploits in the
war of the United States. The following is a
letter from an old soldier of the French army in
America, which appears to us deserving of the
attention of our readers :

PARIS, OCT. 22.

Alessieurs—l have read with great interest the
description in the newspapers of the entertain-
ments which have been given both in America and
France to General Lafayette. In the congratu-
latory address made to him by the President of
the United States, and the replies which he made
to the same, I expected to find some recollec-
tions of his companions in arms ; but my ex-
pectation has been greatly disappointed. And
yet our General did not fight alone for the in-
dependence of the Americans. In the ce-
lebrated field of Brandywine, where he was
slightly wounded, I had the honour of hav-
ing one of my legs carried away by a cannon-
ball, and my face furrowed by two sabre wounds.
When they bestowed on my General a demesne
as extensive as a whole province, they might have
made me happy with a farm in its neighbourhood,
and I could safely say, " I had not stolen it."
But It is well known a French soldier is not very
interested. I regret not the recompence. It ap-
pears to me, however, that my conduct, and that
of my comrades, deserved a little honourable men-
tion. M. Lafayette has frequently spoken of the
" rights of men," which, no doubt, have his best
wishes; but might he not sometimes say a few
words in favour of France, whose fleets were
equipped for the cause of the United States—of
Louis XVI., who sent him to America ; and of
the soldiers who accompanied him there ? This
affected silence is unworthy of " A friend of the
people."

the American war.)

BURGLARY AND ROBBERY.-Testerdny infor-
mation was received at Hatton-garden Police-offiee, of a burglary
and robbery being committed on the previous night at the pre.
mises of Mr. Pick, tobacconist, No. 33, St. John-street, Clerk-
enwell. The thieves effected an entrance beneath the shop win-
dow, by removing the grating, which was fastened by a cross
bolt locked, which they picked, and descending into the cellar,
they got from thence by means of a trap-door up to the kitchen
at the area. The family slept in the upper appartments. They
encountered no obstruction in their plunder, having previously
picked the locks of every door that could possibly intercept their
flight in case of. pursuit ; they then packed up every moveable
article, consisting of plate, wearing apparel, house linen, a quan-
tity of tobacco,&c. to the value ofupwards of one hundred pounds,
with which they got clear off. A reward is offered for the ap-
prehension of the parties concerned, and the recovery of the
property, but no trace has as yet been obtained of either.

A Captain lately at Brighton leaped his horse
over the rails at the cliff's top, where there was
scarce room for him to stand, and afterwards told
a friend that he supposed there was not another
man in the kingdom would do the like. Yes,
said his friend, there-ire '2O in Bedlam !
