Gt'lzo'A‘, 'JULY 28.—There are still many people
!lett who live in hopes that-, under present .cir-
'tnmstantes, the decisions of the Congres of
Vienna may underge'sourechange,and that ii that
ase Genoa nay he again raised to The rank Of an
independent state ; for what most vexes the Gc-
.boue is by no means the loss Of the 'republic
't•onstitution restoration of which is
derstid as iMpracticable,- on account Of the example
that it .would hold out- to Venice) ; but the. in-

- : -
'corporation Of their state with the dominions of
•
`the Eing• of Sardinia. :••
This hatred to the Piedmontese is) however, a
•
'reason unworthy -of being attended to; and of
Which. /h.q, ought to be, the iitgre ao)atti. cit, since
the idea of the future union of all Italy under one
Sceptre, is t-mong the fashionable dreams of the
country, and this idea is rendered still more vale'
.
by the hostility of the several Italian:States to-
trara each other. But a truth which unhappily
'cannot bee contested is, the imposSibility for the
King of Sardinia to defend these his new subject's
'against the Barbary Powers and pirates, who-le
boldness increaes daily, add Who carry offpeople
'and property, even,close to the harbour Of the
- city. It excites indignation and horCor, when
one kn'o'ts that the Dey of Algiers alone has at
-sea eight ships like frigates, some carrying 44
guns-, and that Several of these vessels are Pei:rich
ships that have been captured and carried into
Malta, and there sold by the E'ngliali to the Bar--
bary States. If we add to this, that the English;
after their first landing at Genoa, sold or carried
'from the port and arsenals not, only tiie vessels
that Were nearly eqaipped, but like Wise all :the
materials for building new ones, tine must be so
Much' the more chagrined, that these Sovereigns
of the sea haVe not. obtainedlroin their African
-friends: the freedom of his -flag for the King Of
Sartilit;- without which' the commerce of Genoa
must sink' more and 'more, andahe longing for a
hew Government proportionably increase. The.
Genoese had requested at the Congress the Grand
Duke of Tuscany, the Duke of Modena, or the
You ig King of Etruria for their Sovereign: The
two first were proposed; in all probability, with
the hope that Austria, flattered by are offer,
would 'powerfully second it ; and the last, not
only because the Spanish marine *Goad really pro:.
test them, but because the trade,between Spain
and GeuOa was, and still is principally in silk,
which is the most important arable they -deal .in;
and, on the whole, there is flare afauity than
aversion hetweerr the two nations.
The Queen of Etruria, and the Infant tier son,
still live in Genoa, nor is there at preieut any
talk of their departure, a proof that: the Duchy
of Lucca, which the Congresi allotted tti her,
does not satisfy her pretensions.
Tilis; and the eiretwistanoe that dile English
still maintain a garrison here, command the forti-
fcations, and ettend add strengthen them at their
own expence, serve the people as a confirination
in'their opinion of a probable change. By letters
from Tunis, it seems that the Dey of, that plach
is likewise Making preparations to turd to advan-
tage the last moment of license in,the Metliterra=
bean t font frigates, 'and several :smaller tessels
are ready ter put to sea -eight. Danish ships have
lately been taken by the. pirates under various pre=
teats. An Eaglith Captain, Briggs,, saw 200
Italian slaves on board two Algerine 'corsairs.—
The ,privateert, bf the Island of Elba likewiie show
.themselve.s, and capture English and .Sardiaiaa
ships. it is, however;
,asserted; that the English
are resolved to adopt energetic meastires for the
'safety of the Mediterranean sea; and to propose
them tb the European States: Nothing, surely,
can be more mor:ifying to them than the loud and
general complaint, that they tolerate these enor-
inities to injure the trade of other nations.

On Tuesday night kit the body of Mss Att.EN-

at sea; and on the ensuing day a Coroner's Inquest
Was held on. it at Torquay :. it was afterwards

her veil remained tiver, her face. She is universally ,

of age. The body of the -other young Lady is
not yet found.
It being now the season Of the year when the
wall fruit becomet ripe, the garden robberies have
commenced, and in the vicinity of Tottenham •
many Gentlemen havebeen plundered of the Thole
of their wall fruit. A man was caught.in the,fact
a few days ago, robbing the garden ot Me. GRANT,
of Grove-place, Mile-end, and having,been :taken.
before, a Magistrate, Mr. G. was told that the
Laws of England awarded no other punishMent
to the crime than that of making the thief pay
the value of the fruit stolen. This 'the -Magis-
trate said was to be the more regrettedin the'pre-
sent instance, as the man who then stool before
him,
.had been already charged with 125 similar
robberies.
On Sunday Morning-, the 20th instant, about
tight o'clock, a large. black and white spotted
coach dog, furiously toad, ran through Park-lane,

Oxford-street, Welbeck-street, Portland-place,
and though closely pursued, escaped into time Re-
gent's Park, and we cannot learn that it was ulti-
mately killed : it is ascertained that twelve dogs
• were bit in its course, and Ito .ddtilit many more
before it attracted notice. - We trust this will
operate as a warning to people in general, to keep
up their dogs for some time to come. ..
