THE ARMY.

Thursday a company of the 66th Regiment
marched into Stirling Castle, to relieve Capt. Baird's company
of the 77th, who have been ordered to join the Regiment at
Edinburgh.
During thelast week the 7th Dragoon Guards passed through
Carlisle, on their route from Manchester to Glasgow, where
they are to replace the Scots Greys, ordered to attend his Ma-
jesty at Edinburgh.

cITY, TuEsDAy EVENING.

A respectable merchant has received a letter, dated on the
24th July, from Vienna, which contains news in every re-
spect favourable to the cause of the Greeks, and which con-
sequently is highly satisfactory to all who take an interest
in that deeply injured nation. In addition to a confirmation
of the capture of the Castle of Athens, these advices likewise
communicate the important information that the Christians-
had carried Arta by storm, but that many of their ablest ofli,
cers had'fallen in the assault. Only three fortresses now of
any importance, in the Morea, remain in the possession-of
the Turks, viz.—Modon, Coron, and Patras. The whole of
them had been treating for a surrender, on the same terms
as had been granted to the garrison-of Napoli di Romania ;
but the Greeks having received an account of the destruction of
the Capitan Pacha, and conceiving themselveS thereby made
masters of the sea, the Senate had refused to grant to these
' cities the same lenient terms which might have ;been nbtained
before their naval victory was made public. This event had
filled all the inhabitants of Ancient Greece with the greatest
joy, and had added confidence to them of finally succeeding in
their splendid efforts to effect the liberation of their country.
The Admiral of the Fleet of the Pacha of Egypt, who had
effected' a landing in Candia, has not long had cause to rejoice
in his good fortune,_ for his fleet consisting of 53 vessels having
been defeated by the Greeks, he has been forced to retire, with
the loss of 600 men, leaving behind him many horses and
tary stores of every description. These are the effects which
naturally result from the butchery of Scio. Every Greek arm
is now raised against the barbarians, and the certainty that
either success or death awaits them has increased their deter-
mination, and added to their courage in executing all' their un-
dertakings.
There are letters from St. Petersburgh, dated on the 16th.
July. They announce the arrival of the Imperial Guards in
that capital., After their splendid services -lately in the cause
of Russia, the CZAR must review them with pride and satis-
faction: Their conduct during the last twelve months has ex-
'cited the surprise of civilized Europe, and their disinterested •
behaviour in permitting the, Greeks to rear all the glory of
clearing. Europe of the Ottoman Power, will fill a prominent
page in history. Trade *as extremely dull, and the Exchange
was 9-15-16. being a little lower. A few more sales of Tallow
had been made at 101 R.—No European or civilized nation
feels the want of a free and unrestricted trade at present more
severely than the Russian Empire. '
From Hamburgh the,advices are of the 30th July. The Ex-
change on London was 364 1 and on St. Petersburgh, 9 1-32.
The New Prussian Loan was 854, and the Old 864-. Discount
Was 3per cent.- Both Coffee and Cotton maintained their
value,'but Sugar and Rice were uncommonly dull. The weather
was fine after some heavy rains. Rape-seed was advancing, but
nothing was doing in Grain or in Clover-seed. .
•On ,the Royal Exchange very little mercantile business has
latterly been done. The-Exchange on Paris varied from 25. 671
to 25. 70. ;on Hamburgh, 37. S. to 37. 6. Amsterdam, 12f:
5. to 12f. and on Rotterdani, 12f. 51 to 12f. 6. 'Antwerp,
12f. 3. to 12f. 3i, and rather looking up in All places, except-
ing Amsterdam. Coffee is steady. There were two small pub-
lic sales of this article. Sugar is decidedly ls. to 2s.' cheaper.
The sales consist only of from 500 to 600 hhds. There is no
alteration in the value of rums.' The inactivity in legitimate
commerce is fully supplied by the large transactions which
daily take place in the Foreign Securities. Money is very abun-
dant. Confidence increases in these loans, and the profit from
them is much greater than can be obtained by lending money
either on good Bills of Exchange, or by investing it in the
British Funds. The French Rentes have advanced to 92.50;
Prussia old Bonds are 89, and M. Rothschild's new Prussian
Loan u6a ,Columbian new Bonds arc inquired after at 86-t,
and the Chili have risen to 81i. 'Very few Spanish 'old Bonds
are in the market, and they fully maintain the price of yester-
day, 63i. The new are 621 • Danish 871 ; Neapolitan 73 ;
Russian Metallic Fives have aidvanced to $O, and Mr. Roths-
child's new Russian Loan is very current at 83}; Austrian
Metallic Fives are 79.
The prices of British Stock continue very steady, but the
transactions in them are not extensive. Bank Stock is 252 ; 3
per Cent. Reduced 81R ; and Consols 80i A ; per Cents.
92$ ; the Old Fours 991 a ; and the New Fours 99i ;
India Stook 250, and Bonds 64; consols for the Settlement on
the 28th current opened at 801 ; but on his Majesty's Speech
being made known they fell to 80R It does not appear quite
certain that all the disputes betwixt the Emperor Alexander and
his good brother the Sublime Porte are finally adjusted ; in-
deed the general idea in the City is, that his, Imperial Majesty
is not perfectly satisfied with the part which his connection with
the Holy Alliance has latterly induced ltim to perform in
Europe.—( Morning Chronicle.)
