Our Athens correspondence of the 31st ult.
confirms our previous announcement of the re-
signation of the Mavrocordato Ministry, \which
was ascribed to the intrigues of the two French
Envoys, Messrs. Pi!.:catory and Lagrence. A
French frigate had landed 140 Caudiot insurgents
at Egina.

PutTatc OPINION.
The Chronicl2, in reference to the meeting of Parlia-
ment, thus alludes to the position of Ministers and the
state of the country :—" The proceedings will at once
assume an important complexion. Sufficient time has
been allowed to the new Ministry to complete their ar-
rangements, and to enter on the real business of the
country. The state of the manufacturing districts re-
quires immediate attention, and if Ministers do not
themselves feel the necessity of proposing some mea-
sures to meet the demands of the crisis, the Represen-
tatives of the great towns will remind them of their
duty. The landowners will not willingly relinquish
the grand experiment on which they have entered to
determine the point of starvation of the industrious
classes, at which rent attains its maximum. With-
out starvation the system will not work. Whenever
the people have abundance, the landowners deafen the
country with the cry of agricultural distress. In 1833,
1834, and 1835, when the people had enough to eat, the
landowners could only stave off the demands of their
farmers for reductions of rents by amusing them with
agricultural Committees. One of them gravely proposed
in a pamphlet, that, to raise prices to an amount that
would enable the farmer to pay high rents, a certain
proportion of the crop of each farmer should be de-
stroyed. The hearts of the landowners are set on a
state approaching to famine, when, thrOugh the sliding
scale, the urgent necessities of the people are par-
tially relieved, without interfering with the famine
prices. There is no use in " breathing our murmurs
low." The landowners are at no, pains to disguise their
opinions, that, for the sake of rents, they are prepared
to plunge the existing generation in misery, and to de-
stroy the sources of the national prosperity. There is
not one man of the least name in political economy who
does not pronounce their system as deeply injurious to
the best interests of the country. They pervert legisla-
tion to the gratification of low, selfish interests. Let
'them take warning in time from the lesson read to them
by the able author of the Report of the Hand-loom Com-
missioners, that the Government of this country, being
in the hands of a small minority. cannot afford to incur
the reputation of exercising their power for their own
separate interests, at the expanse of the well-being of the
community.
The Morning Post is quite pathetic on the late political
events, and evidently weeps with joy at the changed state
of affairs :—" No one with any bowels of compassion can
fail to pity the unhappy state of exasperation into which
Whig Radical journalists are thrown by the present state
of public affairs. We attribute this to a keen sense of
self.reproach. The party is utterly ruined. It played a
double part so long, that it must now be content to make
compensation by playing no part at all. Very justly did
