COPY OP A LETTER FROM LIVERPOOL TO
MADAME ,RIEGO.

The friends of freedom in the town of Liver-
pool beg leave to address you, Madam, with that profound
respect which is due to those who suffibr, calamity in the cause
of truth and justice. They are sensible that your grief for the
sad catastrophe of your late'gallant husband must necessarily
be overwhelming. They hope, however' that you may, even
now, derive consolation from the assurance that it is partici-
pated by the virtuous of all nations.
At this crisis, when the tyrants of the earth are combined in a
desperate effort to extinguish the flame of liberty in all countries,
all those who tire animated with a sense of the rights - of man,
must hold in veneration the memory of the first martyr to their
common prineiplesi Your own heart will tell you, Madam,
that it is crime, not the process of punishment, that constitutes
disgrace; : The violence of oppression must work its own ruin.
Our illustrious countrywoman, Lady Russell, witnessed the
expulsion from the throne of these kingdoms of the murderers
of her husband ; and they who have the honour now to address
you, confidently hope that you nay live to see the day when re-
generated Spain shall receive hack with due honour the widow
of Riego.
In the meantime, being aware that the malice of the persecu-
tors of that brave chieftain has cut off the resources of his
family, they beg your acceptance of the enclosed as their quota
of an aggregate which may disappoint the cruel wishes of ukra
royalists and inquisitors.
Signed, on behalf of the Meeting,
Liverpool,* Dec. B. GEORGE WILLIAMS.

We are informed by an intelligent Correspon.
dent, that the amount of the Superannuation
Fund, deducted from the salaries of the Clerks
in the respective Offices under Government, is
now lying in the hands of different thinkers,
arising from the fact of the Bank of England
having refused to rec..ive it for want of au-
thority. Applications have been made to the
Treasury on the subject, and no answers re.
turned. It is evident, from this circumstance,
that the Ministry regard the measure as an undue
taxation upon the salaries of the Clerks ; and we
should be glad ourselves to see the measure
abolished, for the services of individuals em-
ployed by Government should be rewarded by
the country itself, and not, as it would otherwise
appear, by a contribution among themselves.

Yesterday the Earl of LIVERPOOL arrived in
town from Dropmore, the seat of Lord GRIN.
VILLE, in Buckinghamshire, where his Lordship
has been on a visit, and, after transacting business
at the Foreign Office, returned in the evening to
his seat, Combe-Wood.
PUFF DIRECT.—The sons of the late Mr.
RENNIE, the Ingenious Engineer, are appointed
to superintend the building of the New London
Bridge. There is to be an open contract for
the main work, and a deposit of two hnndred
thousand pounds will be expected from the
Contractors. This sum is so great, that few
persons will be found who have the ability to
furnish the amount. We fancy the election will
fall upon Messrs. JoLtret: and BAxxxs.—

Extract of a letter dated Zante, Oct. 28,

$23:--'j It will not be without interest you will

learn that Corinth has just delivered itself up by
capitulation to the Greeks. The Turks have
endeavoured to Make themselves musters of the
fortress of Missolonghi, that was before so well
defended by the Prince Maurocordato; their at-
tempts will be without avail ; 6,000 men now
occupy this fortress, and if they were reduced to
1,500, they could defend it. Colocdtroni is to
march with a certain number to defend the siege,
and the Ilydriots have just sailed to repulse the
assailants,"
The will of Colonel TuoßNxoN was a few days
ago the subject of a proceeding before the tribu-
md of First Instance at Paris. After hearing the
advocates for the widow and the minor, and for
the legatees under the will last made by the
Colonel, the King's Advocate contended that
the property in France must be disposed of ac-
cording to the French laws, and prayed the
Court to decide accordingly. The judgment was
postponed.
