agrees
believed that its plan for the Colonization of Greece,
,Veeduyon with the Paella of Egypt, and which three years
,Co we treated as visionary, was already beginning to be carried
Into execution. The Greeks, however, whose cause has been
often.on the brink of ruin, and who have been brought so
I"' chiefly by the bad character of many of their Chiefs,
and the intrigues of innumerable European agents, still
hope that their affairs will take a favourable turn. The
'fay of negociation is closed against them. The Divan, which
contrives to evade for years together the most urgent diplomatic
Proposals of the European Powers, will. not give the Greeks
y °PPortunity of saving themselves in this way. M. Von

gas (as is confirmed by accounts from the frontiers of Bes-
-I:rabia), after they had left the Principalities -of Molds-

ton',
of his remonstrances, in which he enumerates the most

that the French and Austrian Ambassadors have already pre.
'tilted to the Porte similar remonstrances. It is evident from

The advance in Consols yesterday afternoon, was
occasioned by a purchase of 85,000 for Account, in
lots of 10 and '2O, at which the Jobbers taking
fright, suddenly turned buyers. The market at

the present moment is in so fidgetty a state, that
any appearance of an operation sends the Market

all one way.

The attendance this morning was thin. Consols
opened at 8271,- :1,-, went up to 82f I, declined to

'P. have received, the Singapore Chronicle of
the 4th.of August. An expedition had been sent
by order of the Government at Singapore, for
the purpose of taking formal possession, as it was
understood, of several adjacent islands ceded to
the English by the late treaty with the Sultan of
Singapore. Although the circujnference of Singa-
pore is not great, yet the hotel' islands to be
landed upon are numerous and little known, and
the objects of the expedition would therefore
occupy a considerable time in accomplishing.
According to accounts from Penang, received at
Singapore, Captain 11. BunNEY had been ap-
pointeti as envoy of the Governor-General, to
proceed on a mission to Siam, should a fit oppor-
tunity offer for opening a negotiation with the
people of that-country, extremely jealous of any
intercourse with foreigners, and therefore difficult
of access.—(Times)
The King of SWEDEN has ordered the purchase
of steam-packets for the service of the Post-office.
The Mint is at work night and day coining
sovereigns; a new coinage of shillings is near issuing, the di
of which is peculiarly beautiful.
It is stated in a French paper, that the States
of Hungary are rising in their demands. They
desire, it is said, that His Imperial Majesty shall
reside for some mouths every year in a city of
Hungary—that their fortressesshall Irie garrisoned
with If uogarian troops—and that their nobles
shall not be allowed to reside in Austria, unless
engaged in the service of the Emperor.
NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE,DEC. 26.—this day
the highly respectable hatikiog firm of Sir MAT-
THEW WIIITE RIDLEY, Bart., anti Co. returned
a considerable- quantity of gold to London,
brought down in case of need. It is most grati-
fying, however, to state, that confidence has
never -for a moment been shaken in any- of the
Newcastle Banks, and business is transacting in
the usual way.
DOVER, DEC. 26.—Arrived from Calais, the
steam-packet the Fury; on hoard as passengers were the Prin-
cess Feodor, the interesting daughter of the Duchess of Kent ;
the Baroness de Spath, Capt. Conroy, Dr. Sigmond, &c. &c.
The packet left Calais the previous day, but in consequence of
the boisterous state of the weather, was compelled to return to
port. Shc was the bearer of a large quantity of sovereigns for
Mr. Rothschild.

VICE-REGAL CLEMENCY.—WP understand that
the Marquis -WELLEsr.Ey has been graciously pleased to
remit seven months of the period of imprisonment which indi-
viduals were adjudged to suffer in our county jail, for rioting on
the streets of Belfast on the 12th of July last. This boon in-
dicates his Excellency's confidence in the tranquil character of
our population, and we hope will be properly appreciated by the
individuals who were so Misguided as to disturb the peace of the
community.—(Northern Whig.)
NV e have read in several journals an account of
six dead bodies being brought into Dover on :_,tunday last, but
after diligent inquiry we can find not the smallest ground for
' the report. A number of dead bodies did arrive about that
time, but the number far exceeded six—they were turkeys, and
known to be from France, not even supposed to be from the
Ogle Castle.—Our Correspondent at Ostend informs us, that
a report was current there of a fishing-boat belonging to
Blanckenburg having picked up at sea a cask containing pa-
pers belonging to the ill-fated Ogle Castle.—(Cinque Ports
Herald.)
A letter from Northumberland says, " The
weather the week prior to Christms-day, was
of the mildest description : it is true the tops of
the Cheviot-hills are covered with snow, but
they present less appearance of winter than usual

To WAslr WOOLLEN GOODS.—This art •of
washing woollen things, so as to prevent them
from shrinking, is one of the many desiderata in
domestic economy worthy of being recorded—
and it is therefore with satisfaction we now ex-
plain this simple process to our readers. All
descriptions of woollen goods should be well
washed with soap in very hot water, and as soon
as the article has been cleansed, instantly immerse
it in cold water ; let it be wrung and hung up to
dry—probalum est.
DEATH BY FIGIITING.—TWO men in a state of
drunkenness went out to fight in Islington fields on Monday,
and one of them, Barnard Harrison, a sawyer, was killed after
a fight of twenty minutes. His antagonist, Bellamy, a drover,
immediately absconded.
A number of persons were attracted on Mon-
day morning,, between 10 and 11 o'clock, at the
end of Fleet Market and Bridge-street, to ob-
serve a hawk pursue a flock of pigeons. It
wheeled round beneath them while rising, and
diminishing each revolution, compelled them to
ascend within the circle it had formed, to an im-
mense height, when one was seen to drop, which
it pounced upon, and immediately flew across the
'Thames..
