SERES, APRIL 2.—We have been for a week in
great disquietude ; the Gre'eks of the Morea are
advancing on all sides. Colocotrone has assumed
the Command-in-chief of that Peninsula, and hal
undertaken its defence ; Demetrius Ypsilanti
has advanced into Livadia, and had already take°
possession of Athens ; Ulysses, and the Car
tains Diamarty and Anastasius Nasaare march
ing at the same time on the side of Macedeirlai
and one of their corps has taken possession
11
the town of Veria, 15 leagues from hence. ft

these movements cause us disquietude, becalis
we fear that the Turks will make a genera

massacre.

The Greek vessels re-appear every Ter

and if we receive succours from the North a ge;

don it ; and that this impossibility or danger can
have no foundation, except in, the Poles them-
selves. His Majesty is far from thinking that
there are any Poles so perverse as studiously to
ruin the fairest hopes of their country ; but the
linister warns them that this danger may be
Created by a slavish imitation of the means
resorted to, though for very different purposes,
--by the disturbers of the public peace in other
countries, by the inconsiderate preaching of vain
theories, which are incompatible, in practice,:
with the preservation of social order. If, before
the events which plunged Europe into an abyss,
some real friends to their country were induced,
bY the sincere hope of attaining a better order of
hiugs,.it. is now impossible, after the dreadful
experience that we have had, to give way to
such fatal illusions, or to shew indulgence to-
wards those who spread them."
The Minister says, he is commissioned to add that at the
'.present moment this Lnger is doubled, and can only be averted
47 just confidence in the Government, by judicious moderation,
Tlit spirit of obedience to the authorities. His Majesty has
.41.1niled his first duty by pointing out the danger; his second
!win be to prevent, by the most efficacious means, every attempt
to dlsturb the public tranquillity.

CITY, WEDNESDAY EVENING.
all The Consols for the account opened this morning at 78i (I were extremely steady during the day. The business trans-
tted was on a small scale, and prices did not, in the least, vary
!fore the close of the market. The new fitrming • scheme of the

has had no effect on the money-market, because many
R.41111k that it will find no contractors. 'There is,_ however, a re-
ort that the South Sea Company will undertake it. It is said
14 they will issue bonds, bearing 4 per cent. interest, on the se-
tority of the contract, and that there is an understanding with
hank
ot England that they will receive these bonds at that
tzterest per annum. Perhaps before the 45 years expire, Eng-
. Zinnen will pay for another South Sea Bubble. It is a daring
titenipt to raise money at a time when the public estimates state
