LONDON,
SiITUIZDAY EVENING, DEC. 4, 1824.

We received by EXPRESS from Paris, at a late
hour this day, the Etoile dated yesterday. The
ly political intelligence it contains relates to
the grief and alarm prevailing at Constanti-
11°111e, occasioned by the late disasters of the
Turks in their contest with the Greeks, and
the recent earthquakes that have desolated
Syria. On Thursday the Itentes left off at Paris
ttt 101 r. 30c., but after the close of the Market
they rose to 101 f. 60c.

Peom the. Paris Papers of Wednesday we have
glveit extracts in another column— • They relate
chießy. 'to the affairs of Spain, which country con-
tiaueS to be the theatre of the worst anarchy and
misery.'

13r the Flanders Mail which arrived this morn-
mg, we have received Frankfort Papers to the
28th ultimo, and Brussels Papers to the Ist
instant. We subjoin the
.mosr interesting part
of their contents which relate to the affairs
°f She Greeks, whose successes have spread
Universal. joy among the inhabitants of
Servia', Bulgaria, and Thessaly, professing the
Greek religion, and occasioned considerable
alarm in the Turkish Authorities of those pro.
',Nees. It would seem also that these apprehensions
are shared in an equal degree by the Ottoman
Authorities in Crete, for, notwithstanding the
Oriental Spectator (the Turkish Journal pub.
fished at Smyrna) boasts of the strength of the
Turks in that Island and the general submis-
sion of the Greek inhabitants, and labours to
show that the threatened expedition of the Greeks
against Crete need not occasion the least uneasi-
bess, yet it is evident that the Ottoman Authori-
ties there are under great alarm on that account.

( From the Oriental Spectator, Nov: 16.)
CANEA, SEPT. 3.—We enjoy perfect tran-
quillity here, which I hope will not be disturbed
for a long time, notwithstanding the report which
the Greeks circulate iu the Morea of a reinforce-
ulent of 10,000 men to be sent by the Greek
Government to this island. This report has
two-objects; first, it favours the opinion that the
Oovernment is strong enough in the Peninsula to
be able. to turn its attention to affairs at a distance,
and secondly, to hinder the victorious army in,
Crete from going to the Morea. It fears this
I.l.rtny, knowing that a mere detachment of it
was sufficient to reduce the isle of Casso, from

their communications between Retimo and Canes,
forced with equal rapidity and bravery the 'pass
called A pocorpna, which was reputed inaccessible,
and was defended by 5,000 Greeks, who thought
themselves invincible in that positiou.—(Frank-
fort Papers.).
A UGIBURG, Nov. 21.—Letters from Belgiade
speak of the great sensation which the successes
of the Greeks have caused in Servia, Bulgaria,
and Thessaly. The Turkish Authorities in these

Provinces are iu the greatest anxiety, because
the military force at their disponi is utterly in-
sufficient to put down any insurrection that may
break out among the inhabitants of the Greek
religion.

The Divan is said to he extremely dissatisfied
with the Viceroy of Egypt. At Constantinople
it is repotted that an agent is to be sent to Cairo
with very strict orders from the Sultan. But it
is thought that nobody will venture to go on such
a mission to the Pachn who is absolute in his
Province.—( Brussels Papers.)

CONSTANCE, Nov. 14.—This city and its
noble Minster hAvg been in the most imminent
danger from a rdreadful fire, which broke out on
the 11th, at. two in the morning, in the great
buildingimlonging to the Grand DUke. at Stanf,
and which,is,-snpposed to have been caused by de.'
sign. This great edifice, in which there was a
great (plinth, of corn and 180 tuns of wine,
and the residence of the Canon of Enzberg,
were burnt to the ground. The Cathedral was
saved by great exertions, but not without the de-
struction of two chapels, and damage to the
amount of 20,000 florins. Twenty.two Swiss and
12 Buda fire-engines were on the spot.

COMMERCIAL SOCIETY OF THE NETHERLANDS.
—Letters from Rotterdam state that this Com-
pany of Merchants has confined itself for this
autumn to freighting three vessels to Batavia, one
at Rotterdam, one at' Antwerp, and one at Am-
sterdam, all on account of the Government. The
Society has given another proof that it is not
inactive ; it has just made a speculation in tea,
and has began another in wheat. _

ORLEANS, Nov. 28.—The Royal College of
Orleans Resented, between the 24th and 25th
instant, a scene of disorder which could never
have been expected from the general good con.
duct of the establishment. Between eleven
and twelve o'clock in the evening, the pupils
of the first class, amounting to nearly fifty,
assembled tumultuously, and in such a maim.
ner as had evidently been concerted. One of
the masters who was awakened by the noise,
opened his window, and, seeing his light, the
scholars rushed to his door, which they endea-
voured to force open, while another attack Was
made from the cloister. The master, in order to
escape from this frightful assault let himself down
from the window by the assistance of a sheet which
served to break his fall, but which, neverthe-
less, was sufficiently deep to occasion several
wounds, especially on one of his feet. The
Head of the College, convinced that the disorder
could not be put down without utter destruc-
tion, and that it was not possible otherwise to
prevent so scandalous a result, called in the
aid of the military. lie informed the Command.
of the gendarmerie of his situation, who soon
after arrived with a detachment. Order was
then restored.

DEATH BY DRUNIEENNESS.--011 Saturday an
Inques4 was held over the body of Mary Ilasel.
dine, in a court in Disley-street, Gloucester-
street, Liverpool ; and in consequence of the
suspicion of violence on the part of her husband,
it was adjourned until yesterday. It appeared
that the man and his wife had been in a state of
intoxication during several weeks, and that on
Thursday they had both drank, in company with
each other, to great excess. She had found her
way up stairs, but not being able to unloose her
clothes, and no sober person being there to assist
her, she was found by a casual visitor, dead, Bp.
parently by strangulation, her husband being
insensible down stairs, Verdict—" Died. by
excessive drinking."
