MADRID, JAN. 11.—By a decree of the sth,:.
his Majesty appoints Don John Perez Villamil,
Counsellor of State, to be President of the Junta,
created for the purpose of favouring, by all
possible means, internal and foreign commerce,
the national manufactures, and in short every
branch of public prosperity.
Ills Majesty bein, informed by Count Boor-
Wont that the French Government will pay for
all the articles supplied to the army of occupa-
tion except meat, has ordered the Mayors of all
the communes where the allied troops are sta-
tioned, to take care that the Commissaries of
General Bourmont shall duly receive the provi-
sions of which they have need, and that all as-
sistance shall he given them in providing for the
French army. The Minister of War, in an-
nouncing his Majesty's -intentions, exhorts the
Alcades to take care that. no fraud is committed,
and informs them that the articleS furnished will
be paid for monthly by the paymasters of the
French army,•
• The Restaurador of the 7th contains an arti-
cle, dated Corunna, December 31, u hich says :-
- " We think we have at length a remedy for all our evils, in
• the new Captain-General whom his Majesty has been pleased
to send us. He made his entry the day before yesterday, and
was received with the military honoursdue to him. He arrived
in his carriage, r- ccompanied only by the French Geheral, who
-wept to meet him, followed by the carriages of the Municipa-
lity, &c. The French troops lined the way as he passed, and
their General gave a splendid dinner, at which the Captain-
General Contra.os, and the,other authorities, were present.
" Nothing has yet transpirei respecting the measures which
his Excellency will take; but we do not doubt that they will
be very energetic, and such as the state of the province impe-
riously requires. We are certain that he knows very well how
to separate the tares from the wheat."
• BARCELONA, JAN. 7.—The Municipality has
published a long Decree-for the preServation of
public tranquillity, in consequence of an attempt •
to create a disturbance (on the 4th), by insult-

MADrtm, JAY. 8—( Extract of a Privatg Let-
ler.)---It has been said that the Superintentlant
of Police, M. A rjona, had taken measures to pre-
vent the meetings at the Monastery of St. Francis,
but this, it seems, is not true, and the Apostolical
Committee continues its meetings. Father Cyril,
D. Victor Eguia, Mata Florida, and Calderon,
are among the most assiduous, and Ferdinand is
said to go there sometimes incognito. They have
busied themselves about the amnesty, and
have hitherto prevented its promulgation.—
The proposals for a guarantee for a loan
were heard with great coolness by the Committee
of Saint Francis; what was done in the war of
independence and since was referred to, and it
was stated that the revenues had diminished very
much within the last fifteen years. All hope is
not yet lost, and aarantees for a loan of fifty mil-
lions are still talkedr' of—but what can be done
with so small a sum when our wants are so pres-
sing ? Reports, however, are spread that every
thing is settled—that the amnesty and a plan of
general reform will be published—and that the
treasury is to be filled by the Clergy and the
Mines of Peru.

THE GREEKS
(From the Journal dei Debuts.)
PREVESA, DEC. `,23.—The destiny of Turkey
is fulfilling, and the campaign which was to an!!
nihilate
.the Greeks has ended to their advan-
tage. Moustai Pacha, obliged to raise the siege
of Missolongi, is in full retreat forJanina,.having
failed in every thing he was ordered by the Porte
to execute. This Government has long had the in-
tention to behead Omar Virone on account of the
failure of the campaign in Etolia last year, and the
defection of the Schypetars last May, which are
attributed to him. informed of this, he has hi-
therto escaped by keeping himself far from
Moustai Pacha in an attitude of defence. At
length, seeing himself followed into Acarnania,
at the moment of taking up winter-quarters, he
had no other means of safety but to treat with
the Greeks. After obtaining a safe conduct
from them, he repaired to Maurocordato, at
Missolongi, with his treasures, and baggage,
declaring that his ancestors having - been Chris-
tians, he wished to live and die in the midst
of the Greeks. Thus the last descendant of the
Paleologii, Omar Vrione, who has played so con-
spicuous a part in Egypt, Epirus, Thessaly, At-
tica, and Etolia, is now seated as a supplicant on
the hearths of the Greeks. On hearing- of
this all the Toxids in Epirus retreated pre-
cipitately into the mountains of Mussache, and
it is probable that the Albanians will, before
long, separate from the Ottoman Government.
Moustai Pacha may soon be called on to answer
with his head for the failure of this campaign,
which is attributed to him as unjustly as former
failures were attributed to his predecessors. The
Turks in Europe may still struggle, but they will
meet the same fate as the Eastern Empire of the
Romans.
