Many pessons think, because Bisit soli! in
Shares both the' Two last Twenty Thousand Pound Prizes,
drawn the last day of the last Lottery, that he will sell buth the
Two Prizes of Twenty Thousand Pounds in the next. We see
no reason why he should, but we certainly see no reason why
he should not ; however, a short time will determine, as all the
£20,000 Prizes, and all the other Capitals, .must be drawn on
Tuesday, 4th June.—Tickets and Shares, we observe, are
selling at Bisu's Offices, 4, Combat, and 9, Charing-cross,

she was eloping, when the prisonertook a gun, and on pursuing
then, found his wife arm in arm with his rival, when he fired
at his wife and shot; her dead on the spot: Her paramour re-
ceived part of the shot, but no material injury. Chapman did
not attempt to elude justice, but said he was contented to die
for her.

LONDON,
MONDAY, MAY 27, 1822.

We give in our subsequent columns a Trans-
lation of the Provisional ,Constitution of
the Greeks, promulgated by the Deputies of
the National Congress who assembled at Ar-
gos, and chiefly directed their labours to the
formation of the social compact by which
their Country is to be governed. This import-
ant Document was made public on the 13th.
of January last. The Congress, to whom the
Nation had confided its interests, has laid down
in this organic laW the- bases of the Constitution
of the Greeks, and -bas left to the Government
which it established only the care of framing
some laws of secondary interest, the precise
objects and principal provisions. of which. it has
traced out.—Webave been informed that this Con-'
stitution has given.general satisfaction throughout
Greece, that the new Government possesses, in an
eminent degree, the confidence of the Nation,
and that its conduct has been marked by consi-
derable energy. Since the promulgation of this
act the seat of Government haS been transferred
to Athens. Let us hope that, notwithstanding
the great difficulties against which the Greeks

have to contend, they may be able to establish
their independence on a firm basis :—the triumph
of this fine people, dear to us from so many in-
teresting recollections, must be hailed with joy
by every scholar and friend of humanity.

We have reason to believe, upon what we con-
ceive to be competent authority, that there is to
be a. Meeting of the Allied Sovereigns at Flo-
rence early in August, for the purpose of adjust-
ing the affairs of Piedmont and Naples, and
those relating to Turkey and Russia.—We
learn, besides, that a Minister Nom Turkey is to
attend the Meeting, and also a Deputation from

he Greeks. Our Minister at the Court o

Vienna is of course to be present at this impor-
tant Meeting, in order to watch over the relations
of the British Empire.—lt may seem strange
that the Turk is to send a representative to this
Congress, and that the Greeks, after all that has
passed on both sides, will also have a Minister
present. The Meeting between these two will
be somewhat awkward ; but the present state of
affairs in Europe is singular and critical, and
may naturally be, expected to give birth to very
extraordinary measures.

We have received the Paris Papers of Thurs
day and Friday, Spanish Journals from the 10t1

to the 13th instant, and Hamhurgh Papers to the
22d instant. The accounts from :Petersburgh
confirm the arrival of M. de TATISCHEFF in that
capital, and mention that a Cabinet Council
was instantly summoned, to deliberate on the
despatches brought by him ; but the result was
not known. It was the general belief at Peters-
burgh that the other European Powers would
act in, concert with Russia -on the subject of
the affairs of Turkey. The Ambassadors of
England and Russia were observed to be
remarkably active, and held frequent
.conferences
with Counts de NESSELRODE and CAPO d'ISTRIAS;
and report Stated, that the Emperor ALEXANDER
had been invited by the. Emperor FRANCIS to a
new Congress, and that the Court of Vienna had
proposed that England should act as a mediator
between Russia and the Porte. Nevertheless
the preparations for the departure of the Em-
peror ALEXANDER were actively carried on dur-
ing the whole of these conferences ; and private
letters from the North assert that he actually
set out for the head-quarters of his army at Minsk
on' the 4th of May. The intelligence from all
parts of Germany, except Vienna, is 'of a war-
like character; but unless war were deemed in-

evitable, Austria we think, in the present state
of her finances, would scarcely contract for a
new loan of 35 millions of florins, which report
says has just been concluded with the hOuse of
:ROTHSCHILD.

The accounts from Spain, both in the French
and Spanish Papers, are of an alarming character,
but there is no foundation in them for the re-
ports from Bayonne, which announce that an
express had passed , through that, city on
the 18th, on his way to Paris, with the
news of a counter-revolution in Spain, and
that Madrid was "in full insurrection." It is
to be remarked, that the express from Madrid,
which passed through Bayonne on the 18th,
, ought to have arrived at Paris on the 21st at

latest, and it is not very likely that not a word
should be known at Paris of the •important
news brought by him, or even of his arrival,
until the evening of the 23d. Besides, the
bankers and merchants of Paris are in the
habit of receiving expresses constantly from
Madrid, with intelligence likely to affect com-
mercial operations, yet they are said to be com-
pletely ignorant of so important an event, nor has
the Spanish Ambassador received any advices on
the subject.

( Extract of a Letter from Frankfort, dated May 18.)
" The conflagrations begin to increase in Germany to a de-
gree really frightful. In Prussia the little town of Camurio;
situated in the district of Marienwerder, became almost entire-
ly a prek-to the flames in the night of the Ist of this month.—
Out of 231 houses, only 28 were preserved. In the night of
the 12th May a tire broke out in the town of Blensheim : sia
barrels of gunpowder, each of 50 lbs. weight, which were in 3
granary, blew up with a dreadful report, and covered the neigh-
bouring houses with the blazing ruins of that in which tbef
were contained.—Fifteen dwelling-houses `were in a short time.
bitnit to the ground : 80 lives were lost, and 60 were wounded
more or less severely. On the 17th May another fire reduced
to cinders a chateau, a church, a convent, and 220 houses in 3
town of the Tyrol. This disaster has spread terror through tle
province."

[Extract of a Letter from Art 7 York, May 1.1
" It appears from the statement of the National Intelligencer,
that the rumour of the Empeior of Russia having decided the
question in our favour, respecting the restoration of slaves taken
by the British during the last war, is incorrect. Our last ac—
counts from St. Petersburgh on that subject merely-stated thal
the discussions had terminated, and that the proceedings ha'
been laid before ALEXANDER fOr his final decision. Tara
resolutions have been submitted to the .11ouse of Representc--
tives, instituting an inquiry as to the propriety of providing for
the punishment of public defaulters, and also to establish same
more effectual means to collect monies, which had not beer'
properly accounted for by public agents, and to secure the
Government from the dishonesty of their agents.—The Unit
States Bank remitted two millions of dollars in the stock
that institution to England for sale, upon the strength of which
they are drawing Bills of Exchange at a premium of 12A Pe ,
cent."

M iftQUESS of HASTINGS.—The chief reason,
it is said, which induces this Nobleman to' return
from India, is a general decay of his constitution,
and the affliction of an aneurism in the thigh..

IRELAND.—We have the pleasure to find that
the benevolence of the Irish Nobility, Clergi?
Gentlemen, &c. keeps pace with that of tb
country, t4or the relief of the distressed peasaotr/
in that unfortunate country. On Wednesdaf
last a Meeting was held at Cork for this land-
able purpose. The High Sheriff took the Chair'
and made an impressive speech on the occasion'
Mr. BOYLE and Lord DONERAILE 10110 Wed •
Mr. DAN. LEAHY said, he felt it his duty to state
that Lord CORK had done every thing in 115
power to lessen the sufferings of the PouP'ei
His Lordship had sent 501. to the county °f
Kerry, 501. to the neighbourhood of Charlevillf/
and 100/. towards the General Fund. ,
LEAHY'S name was added to the Committee'"`
and the best measures are likely to foll°l‘a
their exertions.--A .similar Meeting was hen()
at YOughall, convened by the MAYOR, "5.
the 18th instant. A Subscription was opeoed
on the spot, amounting to near two bun the
guineas, the Corporation subscrihhig 501.,
Duke of DEVONSHIRE 50 guineas,. Dr. Jiith'ir,
MAN and Mr. PARKER 10 cuineas each, and
GEORGE ROCHE, and other benevolent
duals, 5 guineas each, &c. &c. Another I\lee.
ing took place at Rathcormac, when 100/.
subscribed towards the relief of the poor o
town. On this occasion the Staff of the Soutt'a
Cork Light Infantry subscribed a day's ad
the fund. To the honour of the neighbour °
not a single outrage was committed. t

Papers from Calcutta tO the 16th of Decetnhet'
were received on Saturday, containing advticotf
from the settlement of Sincapore to the 4i'die-
November, which are interesting as denoting `,i
state of the trade in that quarter.' Mr.Mogci
