EXPRESS FROM PARTS.

(From the Times.)
We have just received by express all the Paris journals
of Saturday, with a large packet of communications from
various parts of the Continent to the latest date, through
that capital.
The French Ministers had acquired another triumph on
Friday evening in the Chamber of Deputies, the- latter
having passed to the order of the day upon M. I..au-
rence's motion, to impeach the internal policy of the
Government, the movement party not venturing upon
a division which would have showed their weakness.._
Paris was entirely tranquil; but a good deal of popu-
lar regret appears to have been both fantastically and
vehemently expressed when the news of the fall of
Warsaw had reached the provinces. The States Ga-
zette of Prussia, of the 17th, contains no news from
Poland. According to a letter from Tilsit of the 9th
inst. the Polish troops of the corps of Gielgud, amount-
ing to about 4,000 men, which have been encamped
near Packamohnen, are now marching to Satneland, situ.
ated behind Konigsberg, where they are to be quartered
in the villages until further orders. Their quarters will
be surrounded by a military cordon. The officers, whose
number amounts to about 4.00, are allowed to fix their re-
residence in twenty small towns, appointed for that pur-
pose, in Eastern Prussia, but they have been ob!iged to
give their word of honour not to leave the district of their
residence. About sixty subaltern officers, who refused to
make this promise, have been sent to the fortresses of Pillau
and Grandentz. .

The Austrian Observer, in announcing the surrender
of Warsaw, says,—" The capitulation guarantees the safety
of persons and property, and allows the Polish troops to
retreat upon Praga. It is thought that the negotiations
for the entire pacification of the country are continued."
The Augsburg Gazette of the 19th instant has the fol.
lowing :—" The news of the taking of Warsaw has made
a great impression at Vienna. General Count Claris was
immediately sent to Berlin. Russia has declared that she
will now occupy herself with the accommodation of
land under the mediation of Austria and Prussia.
Letters from Frankfort mention a report of the death of
Marshal Paskewitsch, in consequence of the contusion he
received in the chest. It was stated in the Russian bul-
letins that be was obliged to surrender the command on
the second day of the attack to General Toll, and that he
was not able to make his entrance into Warsaw on horse-
back, but this was not generally believed.

Extract of a private letter from Vienna, dated Sept.
1G :—" It was in the night of the 13th instant, after a
storm and much cold rain, that the cholera broke out,
which had been long checked in its progress by strict
sanitory measures. The disease has the same character as
elsewhere ; but what is rather singular, is, that during the
first two days after its appearance it attacked proportionally
more persons of the higher classes than in other towns.
Today there are fewer cases than on the two first days."

We have alio private letters which state that Prince
Czartoriski, and the chief members of the Polish Govern-
ment, had retired into Gallicia, under the protection of
Austria.

The accounts from Greece, received through Trieste on
the 11th of September, show that it is scarcely possible,
after the late events in Poros, that Capo d'lstria con
maintain his ground at the head of the Greek Govern-
ment ; and a private letter we have received from Paris
mentions that General Sebastiani had some intrigue in
view for setting up in the Presidency of Greece a Greek
Prince named Sutzo, one of the Fanariats of Pera.

In some of the Swiss Cantons all was according to our
accounts by this express, civil war.

PA EIS, SATURDAY EVENING.

Tranquillity has for the last two days been re-esta-
blished in this capital. This tranquillity will last just as
long as faction permits the authorities to perform t heir
ex,cutive functions. Without seizing a convenient oppor--
tunity of mobbing them, this opportunity has occurred
every six or seven weeks ; but the approach of winter
will bring rainy weather, and a shower of rain here dis-
sipates a street crowd quicker even than the sabres of a
troop of dragoons.
The fall of Warsaw was the pretext of the last tumults
—their real cause I believe to have been the restless spirit
of knots of small factions, who make Paris the centre of
their movements, and who, acting upon the immense
crowds of the unemployed population, can seldom find
difficulty in getting up rows: the firmness of the Go-
vernment, both in the streets, and in the Chamber, have,
however, on this occasion defeated these violent projects,
and it is to be presumed that the strong support which
the Ministers have received from the Legislative bodies,
will strengthen their system, and give the authorities a
moral ascendancy in the State. Without the latter, change
must follow change, and the country be undone.
The unseemly contest of individuals during two of the
days of debate in the Chamber of Deputies,—the frequent
personal contradictions upon matters of fact between the
chief partisans at each side upon conversations which must
have been entirely within the scope of their memory, have
very much reduced the estimate of character of public men
here : the fact is, there is an incessant struggle for place in
every department of the State. The people are greedy for
a little power and money, and there is no place, however
subordinate, in which a cry is not raised against some in-
dividual, not for any inefficiency in the discharge of his
civic functions, but for some supposed political tenets at
variance with those of the State. From high to low, the
country is overrun with a rabid race of place-hunters, and
a war of competition of this kind is carried on in every
village of the provinces. Hence arise so many adverse
interests, that nobody can tell when or how these petty
contests will cease, which engender every element of in-
subordination. Y.

NAPOLI DI ROMANIA, AVG. 20.

On the 9th instant, jallsl the Commandants of the
French and English fleets were negociating near the Pre-
sident, for the cessation of the horrors which the Russians,
together with the Government, were committing at Poros,
Capo d'lstria, although strongly protesting his regret at
what had happened, wrote secretly to Poros, and gave
precise orders to the Russian Admiral (at the moment
when the town of Poros was blockaded on the land side
by the Greek troops, and on the sea by the Russian fleet)
to use all his efforts, and spare no means for destroying the
Hydriotes and Poriotes. These orders having reached
their destination, the Russian Admiral apprised the brave
Miaulis, that if he did not surrender all his vessels he must
sink them. Admiral Miaulis, who did net wish to yield
to fear, replied, that if he saw the least movement made
against these ships, he would instantly blow into the air
the vessels in question. In fact, while the Russians were
preparing their plan of attack, Mullis, after taking to the
boats with his crew, blew up the fine frigate the Hellas, the
Hydra corvette, and a brig. Then the troops of Capo
d'lstria, seeing that Poros was no longer protected by its
fleet, took courage and entered the town, not like Chris-
tians, but as barbarians, and committed all imaginable
horrors against the unfortunate inhabitants who had not
time for flight. The town of Poros, thanks to the phi-
lanthropy of the President and Russians, remains only as a
heap of ruins. Miaulis and his crew have retired to Hydra,
where Capo d'lstria seeks all means of fomenting discord.

The following letter is from the frontiers of Swit-
zerland, &ter' September 17:—" Complete an .rchy pre-
vails in the Canton of Basle. The peasantry fight at
each side ; the Diet appears uncertain in the measures
which it ought to take to give peace to the Canton. This
day between ten and eleven o'clock, the generale was
beaten to expel all strangers from Basle. The report was
spread that the Balois wished to go to the succour of the
communes which adhere to them, and which are attacked
by those of the Liestal party. Every day affairs become
more complicated. In fact, at two o'clock in the day,
1,000 troops, with some artillery, were going we know
not where. Four battalions of Zurich troops have en-
tered Liestal."

FRUITS OF THE SEASON.—NOW that the
stores of Autumn are arrived at maturity, and we are be-
ginning to enjoy their delicacies, it will be acknowledged
that no reading can be more attractive, than that which
gives us the history of Fruits cultivated in this country.
The greater number of the tribe of Pomona, though now
existing among us in perfection, are foreigners; and their
introduction to England has been, in most cases, identified
with great names in our history, and has frequently been
attended by circumstances partaking even of romance.
Mr. PHILLIPS, in his " Companion for the Orchard," or
Historical and Botanical Account of Fruits, a new and
cheap edition of which is just published, has accumulated
a body of horticultural information, enlivened with a mass
of the mast interesting anecdotes. His account in parti-
cular of the Apple, the Apricot, the Fig, the Filbert, the
Grape, the Plum, the Love-apple, the Melon, the Mul-
berry, the Nectarine, the Peach, the Pear, the Pine-apple,
and the Walnut, will be perused, not only with the most
lively amusernfint, but with considerable profit.

LONDON,
MONDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 26, 1831.

We invite the attention of our readers to the
important proceedings at the dinner given by the
Reform Members of the House of Commons to
their distinguished leaders Lords ALTHORP and
Jo r-t N RUSSELL on Saturday—proceedings
which will be read with interest by a grateful
country—affording as they do an unambiguous
anal convincing proof of the inflexible determi-
nation that marked the conduct of those two
distinguished individuals during the progress of
that great measure so essential to the stability of
the Constitution, and the permanence of our
liberties. Who, now, will raise the preposterous
cry that the people are indifferent to the subject
of Reform ? Let that individual, if one there be
found to utter it, look at the proceedings at this
meeting, and the meetings which are being
held from one end of the kingdom to the other
flomanly declaration of Lord ALTIIORP, at the
(i for r replyon Saturday, who in reference to the
; let him look to the honest and
means by which this great measure has been
carried through the House of Commons, says,
it has been attained by your assistance and by
the support of the people of England ; and I
should be wanting in justice if I did not say
that such a result could not have been attained
except by the most extraordinary and unparalleled
exertion on your part ; by the steady attendance
of the gentlemen whom I have now the honour
of addressing during a long and tedious sitting,
throughout the whole of which, however, we
were enabled to present to our enemies such a
front as proved to them that though they might

protract the struggle, they never could hope
to gain the slightest advantage in the con-
test.—(Cheers.)" The House of Commons—
that is to say the majority of it, has nobly
done its duty. To the House of Lords, to
whom the task is now entrusted, we would say,
go and do likewise ;" indeed we cannot bring
ourselves to believe that a body of men, many of
whom stand recorded in a nation's heart for long
and valuable services—men who have fought their
country's battles in the Senate and in the field,
will now, when an opportunity is offered to them
to improve the condition of almost countless mil-
lions, by rendering them free, prosperous, and
happy,—we cannot, we repeat, so far stretch our
credulity as to think they will indiscreetly reject
the means of accomplishing so much good.

We have Barbadoes Papers to the 21st of
August. They furnish a most dreadful account
of damage, or rather ruin, caused to the inha-
bitants of the island by a most furious hurricane
on the 11th, unexampled in the history of the
West Indies. The loss of property comprises
dmost every thing in the island, and the loss of
life is dreadful. Every house in the island has
been either injured or destroyed; every mill has
been levelled to the ground, and every crop utterly
ruined. In the barracks alone forty of the mili-
tary perished, and when the accounts left, the
unhappy survivors of the colonists were dragging
from the ruins the mangled bodies of the suf-
ferers, so that no accurate account of the num-
ber of victims could be ascertained. The Go-
vernment house was unroofed, and the Governor
only saved by taking refuge in the cellar. The
Custom-house was blown down, every church
on the island was more or less damaged,
and . St. Paul's and St. Mary's were utterly
destroyed. Most melancholy was the situ-
ation of the living in the midst of wreck,
and surrounded by the dead, and the Governor
has despatched intelligence to the other islands,
praying for instant aid to save the living from
starvation, the provisions being entirely de-
stroyed, and the utmost destitution prevailing-
It appears that the effects of the hurricane were
felt at Dominica, St. Vincent's, and the other
islands, though in a less destructive degree, but
considerable damage was done. The town of
Rousseau was almost inundated by the breaking
in of the sea, and great damage was done to the
;hipping at Barbadoes. In the other islands no
lives have been lost.

We have received Papers and advices from
Hamburg. There are no news of any import-
Ince regarding the Poles ; but it is stated, on the
authority of letters from Warsaw, that there is
still a Polish army of 60,000 men in the neigh-
bourhood of the capital, and that a grand attack
against the Russians is again in contemplation.
The following are extracts from these Pipers :

ST. PETERSBURG'', SEPT. 7.—By an order of the day
dated Zarskojeselo, the 3d instant, his Majesty has been
pleased to make numerous changes, promotions, and no-
minations in the army and navy. Among them is the no-
mination of the Grand Duke Constantine (the Emperor's
second son) to the rank of High Admiral.
A report addressed to his Majesty by Field-Marshal
Paskewitsch, dated from Nadarzyn, Aug. 28., relates the
'unction of General Kreutz with the main army, the oc-
cupation of Kalisch by General Knorring, and details the
operations of General Rosen, who was attacked by a
Polish corps of more than 20,000 men, with 38 pieces of
cannon, under General Romarino, which after leaving
Praga at first marched towards Osiek, and seemed to in-
tend to pass the Vistula and act on the rear of the mein
Russian army, but afterwards turned against General
Rosen on the 28th. The Polish force being vastly superior
threatened to cut off Rosen's communications with Braesc-
Litewski. The General took measures to cover that im-
portant point, and had to sustain many attacks from
the Poles. After he had resisted them for two suc-
cessive days, seeing the object of the operations which had
been prescribed him had succeeded by drawing a conside-
rable corps of the rebels to a great distance frown Warsaw,
he proceeded in the night of the 29th to Brzesc, the com-
munication with which was already interrupted, and en-
tered the town with his whole corps, and all his artillery,
on the 31st, not having been molested on his march by
the enemy, whose farther plans were not known.
