LONDON,
TUESD.IY EVENING, JULY 5, 1825.

We yesterday published a few extracts .from
the French Papers of Saturday: • The residue
came -to hand this day, but they are unusually
ha-rren.• The Nuremburg Currcspondent, of the
'7th June, arrived by the German Mail this
morning. We have selected the following ex-
tract, leaving our Readers to judge of its authen-
ticity and correctness
FRONTIERS OF ITALY, JUNE 17.—The latest accounts
from Altrania.give recent intelligence front Etolia and'Livadia.
The following are the principal facts which they furnish :
liedschisi -Pacha 'has already inundated all Etolia: with his
troops,:as far as to the north side of the Gulf of Patras, whence
he has made himself master of the road from that place to Le.
panto (along the toast); and thus opened himself a communi-
' cation with that place. It is inconceivable why the Greek ships
which blockaded PatraS by sea till after the beginning of May
have left the coast and gone to Cape Papas, whence they cruise
partly on the coast of Etolia and partly on that of the Morea,
as far as to Cipe Tornese. It is affirmed that the reason of
this operation was the news of the speedy arrival of an
Algerine squadron in the Gulf of Lepanto to support
the operations of Redschid Pacha. The latest accounts how-
ever say, that no such squadron had appeared there. Mean-
time, Redschid Pacha communicated with Jussuf
Governor of Patras, whom he had urged to send for some
heavy artillery, with the necessary ammunition, to bombard
Missoionghi and Anatolico. Redschid had not taken any with
him on his expedition, and part of his field artillery, and a
large convoy with ammunition which followed him, has been
taken by the Greek marauding parties.
No great fears were entertained at Missolonghi, as the sea is
open, and the place cannot be taken unless blockaded on the
sea:side ; and the Turks besides are not very skilful, and they
have not the means of_ pressing the siege with vigour. As
they had approached slissolonghi in considerable numbers, .
Stournaris, the Governor, had' made a sally with a consider.
able forc.!, defeated the Turks, and driven them several
leagues from the fortress. Iski has collected a considerable force
in the mountains, and does the Turks much injury. While
one part of this army observes the motives of the Thessalian
army, the other has approached Lepanto, and is endeavouring
to penetrate towards the eastern frontiers of Etolia, and open a
communication` with Anatolica and Missoloughi. Ibrahim's
jsituation in the Morea has not improved. ffis efforts are prin..
cipally directed to maintaining hiAlself in his position till the'
Captain PaCha.shall bring his. aid. Navarin is' in his power,
but the fortifications of that place are destroyed.—(.2lTuremburg
Correspondeuf, June 27.) •

At a late hour this morning we received the
Dutch Mail, but have only jest time to make the
folloWing extracts :

ST. PET ERIBURGIL, JUNE s.—To. indemnify the Crimea
for the disasters which it has experienced, and to promote trade,
the duties on raw hides and potashes have been considerably
reduced for this year in the ports of the Euxine and the Sea of
Asoff, and in Bessarabia.

ST 0C K 110 t. 3i, Ju NE 17, —The Norwegian Commissioners
for regulating the frontiers between Norwegian and Russian
Lapland arrived on the 22d at Drontheitn, where they met with
a merchantman bound- to Vodso, on board of which they em-
barked for the fortress of Vardopus, whence they will go by
I.tncl Co Kota, the place fixed for their meeting with the Russian
Commissioners.

FRANKFORT; JUNE 23.—Some German Papers say that
the heads of the house of Rothschild will shortly meet together
either in Paris or London. As this house had had an important
part in the principal financial, operations during some years
past, it is no wonder that 'most persons ascribe this intended-
meeting, not to family, but to the necessity of arranging prepa-

ratoty measures for the purpose of being able, in case of need,
to carry into execution a plan of effecting the reduction of the
French Rentes (which has not yet been much advanced by the
voluntary conversion), by an eventual repayment of the
principal.

The Deccan Prize Money has become a sub..
ject of much public' interest since the discussions
to which it has given rise in the House of Com-
mons. Previous to these discussions, the Trus-
tees (viz. the Duke of WELLINGTON and Mr.
Minn Tumor) had fallen into a state of supineness
and apathy truly alarming .to. the Army of the
Deccan, who have been for these six or severs
years past looking out in vain for notifications of
the time of distribution, when their examplary
patience might be rewarded by the fullness of
fruition. From this state of supineness and
apathy they have been thus roused, and it is
ICI 'be 'hoped they will not relapse,• but set
About the 'discharge of their duties with a
thorough deterMination to complete them. The
heat exhibited in the'debate on this question last
Friday night is a pretty tolerable proof of the
degree of interest the Trustees have taken in; the
late discussions, and of the strong anxiety they
feel to set themselves right with the public. But
their friends'. should be informed that prudence
and caution are highly necessary ingredients in
any line of defence they may severally take ep,
and that recrimination, however just and correct,
is no justification. Warmth of temper on some,.
occasions of this nature is judicious, and never
fails to produce its effect, when the charges then

repelled are totally without foundation ; in the

present instance it was most misplaced, seein4
the bare recital of the -fact that the prize-mood'
is even yet undistributed, casts a strong suspicico
upon the Trustees. The best excuse that W°
offered for the conduct of the Duke and'
Mr. ARBUTHNOT arose out of the circuur
stance that the prize-lists were not delivered'
until the sth of June last, and that wit!"
out them it was impossible to draw up a scheme.
for distribution. This certainly appears, at first
sight, a full extenuation' of the charge of crelal
imputed to the Trustees, and throws the blan3o
entirely on the shoulders of the CostsrANDEa-Pi'
Cut EY and the Law and Prize Agents of the'creP'
tors. It is, however, to be remarked, that the
money even yet is not in, -band, and Sit'
,TiromAs Iftsr,op and his advisers very fairlf
concluded that the furnishing of such
could not be a matter of much moment
until they had learnt that the Trustees were le

ol
pears that although the prize-lists (perhapo (to
some great difficulty in making them out) 19vfe,
not furnished until the sth ult., yet that circu°4
stance could not be the cause *f any delay, at
cannot therefore be visited on the Law or v r
Agents as a fault. A month has alive
elapsed since they were delivered in, .and.
distribution has yet been made or even notiV
The absence of this list could not prevent tiro
Duke and Mr. ARBUTHNOT, from proceedilig
their inquiries into the amount and value of
spoil,and afterwards from taking possession of tsame in the right of the Croitn, until which till°
its possession of such a list could be of no vaillOr
i 4
utility to the Trustees. But it may be stake-,id "
not the conduct of the Trustees make it itoPer`v
.tively necessary for the advisers of the Faye
AgentS to proceed with caution ? They hadbeetrir,
refused every information as to the state 0., their
funds, and, most improperly kept in total le°
ranee upon that subject.. Their remotistrance4
were treated with contempt, and every ended
vour to learn what money had bee

and hat was still outstanding, undisputed' r

•
tire.. So long as the Trustees preserved
ct
diviffied silence, they had little right to otrue
the co-operation of the advisers of the Arinh
10°
would have been justified had they retained
the
lists until they were convinced that all
411°
booty taken was duly received. The el
• holding, of these lists gave 'them a check -1 „oat'
the Trustees, and prevented them' from distribute
4
ing until the whole was in hand, a proceedie
highly necessary and loudly called for, if ti
„1
extraordinary situation, in which. the silence
the Trustees had placed Sir TUQMAS „if, f'
and his advisers is considered. A partial g
tribution might _have been advised in the
i°
instance, and from the turn. this busiue—.g h
ie4
taken it is not improbable that the Tr°st,tie
would then have withdrawn themselves from
ver
affair altogether and left the captors to ree'ef
the residue of their booty in the best w 3.9 ftbtler
could. For it is not to he imagined that el
ea
the Duke.or Mr. ARBUTHNOT are much diq°s
the.'
to trouble themselves in a matter in ‘‘'hich

have no personal interest whatever. rt is
clear, then, no blame could attach to the cap-
tors' agents for withholding the prize lists, utterly
useless as they have been in hastening the final
distribution of the prize-money, and thus the
question remains untouched, and the Trustees
ought to make out a case that would answer the
charges made against them, or leave the Public
to draw its own inferences from the simple rela-
tion of the fact, which they most assuredly will.
What these inferences are we leave the Trustees
to determine.

The sentiments delivered by the Duke of
Irouti on the Catholic Question were so strictly
Consonant with the soundest principles of the
Oritish Constitution, and so honourable to the
judgment and patriotic feelings of his Royal

[ arriv-ed at Coils., a-nd remained there a
month, waiting for letters, but was amply and profitably etn-
Phled during the time, through a discovery of an antique
Greek temple which appertained to ancient Corfu, and had
been swallowed up by an earthquake between two and three
thousand years ago. I have made detached drawings from
actual measurement of all the ruins, and also restored drawings
9f what it originally was. It is of a beautiful Doric order, and
supposed to have been dedicated either to Neptune or
• .;_acellus. I have got casts of those parts moat worthy of atten-
"?n, which have been sent to my friend's bankers, in London,
Wttlx wl:arn lam travelling, to wait our return. For ages the
teP of one of the columns was above the earth, and served as a
ti'at for the shepherds. The Governor had occasion to order
;0e soldiers to dig on the spot, when the remains of this fine
Inple made their appearance. I have had the good fortune to the first architect who has made drawings from them. I 4441 proceed through the Morel to Athens, Corinth, &c. Con-
