tat GltrEK COMMITTEE,

Thc following is an cy.itttet of an article in the Weil-
winter Review, puh:,ished this day : it is written, we
apprehend, from -internal evidence, by one of the corn-

" Of Coe enormous sums raised in this country in the
shape raf loans for the assistance of the Greeks, it may he
instructive to give some account. We are not of opinion
Chat agreater portion of fraud and mismanagement attaches
to thedisposal of the Greek loans than to many others,
which have been less the object of public attention and
farther removed from public scrutiny; but a we believe
arid know that a feeling of sympathy for the Greeks, and a
desire to assist their cause, did in many instances supersede
the grosser and more common motive of pLvtiniary interest,
vo we think that a valuable lesson tnay be learned for the
future out of the disclosures of the past which lave taken
place. We shall give, in gross numbers, the patticulars of
these loans, as far as we have been able to collect them;
and we think that the conviction will be forced on every
man's bosom, that the ill-appropriation of the first (if ill-
applied) must attach to the arrangements made for its ex-
penditure in Greece, to which so large a portion of it was
directly remitted. The mismanagement of the second
belongs to England, and we apprehend the details of its
expenditure will give no satisfaction to any one.

The first loan for 800,000/. produced to the Greeks the
net Xlllll of 451,7001.

" Out of this loan they paid 80,0001. for interest, anit
1f1,0001.-ttiwards the sinking fund. The amount remitted
to -Grotq:e-in specie was 208,700/.; in stores and ammu-
nition, 9,900/. ; payments made in Greece for the relief
Missolonghi, 2,4001.; 5,00(W. for the expenees of the
deputation for twelve months ; paid to one of the deputies
(Orlando) on his private account., 5,900/.;, repayment of
It loan made by Lord Byron to the Greeks, 4,000/. ;, sun-
dry expenees, 6,3004 ; and a sum of 27,5004 pAiti Dm' to
the account of the new loan as the helmet of the old.

" The second loan, for 2,000,00., was contracted with-
' out rtl. s slightest reference, to the Greek ,Committee, to
whom, we have reason to believe, the whole afThir was
secret. And this was rather extraordinary, because what-
ever opinion might have been formed of the committee,
they could not but possess a great number of important
facts, of which a contractor would have done well to pos-
sess himself, a1;.4 for his own security and the security of
thoic who reliett on his judgment. We think that con-
tractors its general hold- far too cheap the responsibility on
which they stand to the public, and that, when monies
are lent to young
,and feeble GoVernments, like that of
'Greece, some guarantees should be obtained for their pro-
per application., Had the large sums raised for. Greece
been well and wisely applied, there can he no doubt that
the soil of Greece would at that this•moment be untrodf
den by an invader. As it is, the money has corrupted her
chieftains, fomented her factions, lowered her character,
and alienated many of her friends ; while those who ad-
vanced it have only to anticipate final and total loss; for,
notwithstanding every recommendation that urgency itself
• could impress upon the Greek Government, no Measures
whatever have been taken for the payment of the stipulated
interest, or for the fulfilment of her part of the contract
with the English lenders.
" The nett produce of the aecond loan for 2)000,000/.
. was 1,04.6,0001.; and to which the sum of 39,8004 was
. received from the former loans km interest of bonds, and
1,2001. of the Calcutta subscription. The amount reserv-
ed for interestwas tOO,OOO/. and for the sinking fiord
20,000/. The WM remitted to Greece in bullion appears
to have been, in round numbers, 182,400 t ; and 08,2001.
Was employed in the purchase of military stores. A sum
of 2,20x)1. 2,20 a has been spent in buying up bonds.. To the
steam-vessel expedition 160,0001. has been appropriated;
and the sum of 158,0001. has been spent at New York,
being part of the .cost of two frigates. The Greek Go-
vernment have drawn for 3!l,7001.; 3,300/. was remitted
to the relief of Missolonghil i6,lool.bas been appropriat.
ed to the formation of a body of regular troops'. The depu-
ties' expenses are :.6,0001.; and 12,4100/. seems to have
been employed to discharge . minor claims.. It is nearly
impossible to verily these statements in detail, but they
present a melancholy outline, which will be filled up ac-
cording to the temper or the knowledge. of the inquirer.
" Among the largest items by which the expenditure of
the received loan is accounted for, is the sum of 15.5,0001.
employed in America for the building of frigates. Nothing
but infatuation, gross ignorance, or dishonesty, will serve
trr account for this strange misappropriation of the Greek

mousy. At a moment when instant assistance to Greece
is all-important—at a moment,•too, when it is within our
knowledge that many ships of war, cheap, and ready for
sea, were to be found in European ports, a cavalry officer
is engaged, at an enormous salary, and is dispatched to the
United States with vague instructions—instructions in-
consistent, too, with the orders of the Greek Government ;
and, after spending 155,0001. in the erection of two fri-
gates, it is discovered that •a very large sum, not leas than
50,000/. more, is wanting to complete them; and the re,
suit is, that both of them get confiscated as security for the
debt for which they are said to be responsible. The most
favourable result that can now be anticipated :a, that one
should be sacrificed to save the other; and the Greeks will
possess a frigate at a price for which all the annals of offi-
cial, jobbing present no parallel.
" There are ninny reasons why we cannot go through
the strange jumble of facts and fictions; of assumptions,
of declamations, vituperations and conceits which are con-
tained in Count Palma 's pamphlet. But we think the very
serious charges brought in it against Sir Francis Burdett,
,Mr.llobhouse, and !sir. Ellice require from them an early
disclaimer. Men who owe their reputation to public
,opinion must.pot treat that tribunal nightly ; and certainly
Mitch obloquy, undeserved in our opinion, attaches to them
in consequence of the part they are supposed to have taken
in the projected expedition of Lord Cochrane. But it is
our deliberate conviction, that, the delays and disappoint-
mots which have hitherto interfered with its completion,
are much more attributable to his Lordship himself than to
Any other party. The vessels were built, the machinery
constructed, under his own directions; the builders and
engineers were wholly of his own choosing; chosen, too,
against the opinion of others, who were, perhaps, better
able to judge than Lord Cochrane could be, of the means
they poisessed of fulfilling their engagements, But here,
as every where else in the management of Greek
affairs, responsibility has been se divided, so extended,
'that it hex afforded no species of security for the accom-
plishment Of any object proposed. Hence it is, that
the hallairie% respecting the mismanagement of these
'rams have tell -to a series of personalities, in which
evoaY lium who has been accused has found some ground
for attack upon his accuser; and attention has been diverted
from-the mow of Greece to the misunderstandings and the
Criminatione of those who lutve been in any way
associated
with her affairs. As the Col tint has beets in recce' and

that ell the miSfortmes have occurred in Greece because
the deputies had too little control over the Greek funds.
We,
on the contrary, think that almost every evil is clearly
arid distinctlyto be attributed to their
having too much.

rots of ignorance, indolence, ..
verriuteot of Greece might have eniaiwed from Eng-
.
land, and Greece have had the benefit of the ma
Lary, naval, political, and scientific knowledge of bar
advocates. The judicious application of one-fourth
part of the sums which have been raised for Greece
wonld, as we• firmly believe, have completely driven the
invaders from her soil. It cannot be doubted that the situa-
tion of Greece is now far less favourable than it was ere

Ale IA received any pecuniary assistance whatever. The
Count's charges against the Greek ComMittee, as far as
we can understand them, are, that it ' arrogated to itself
the right pj(tire venting certain monies beinw Sent to 11.*cee,
and OM:kilted itself the protector of the bond-holders.'
NoW the latter part of the t,harge is mainly true, inasmuch
as the Committee r.: Ways deeMed that the best poliey. for
Greece *at The faithful discharge of the pledges She had
gi'Ven to her creditors.; and the Committee Certainly in-
structed its agents in Greece tb endeavour to obtain an
immediate transfer into the hands of trustees, of such parts
of the national property as would ultimately provide fort e
reimyrnent of the loan, and in the mean time secure ale
remittal of the dividends; The 'COMMittee, not inori In
the interest of the bond-holders than in the interest of
Greece itself', did frequently and urgently call the attention
Of the Greek Government to the neeeiiiit,y ,6f pitividieg
for the regular paythent ',of the interest thi- the fiends. the
Committee entreated; that if not the whole, at least a part,
even 0. teo cargoes of produce, any thing, indeed, which
would -be evidence of their intention to fulfil their con-
tracts, should be despatched to England : and they used
not only the moral argument, but the purely stash aro.-
meat to the Greeks ; for they told that that ho hiore
money wattiti be found, unless early measures *ere WWII
to pay the interest on that which was already due ;
and that, if this were done, any sums of money which
might be required for the salvation of Greece would be
easily obtained: The committee failed in their object of
securing the property of the creditors of Greece ; it would
have been well had they succeeded—well for the English
lenders, and better for the Greek borrowers ; it would
have-been *ell, too, for the cause of freedom and of man.
The other charke - that Count Palma brings forward
against the commotee is something like a charge of em-
bezzlement. Ile asks what became of the '.8,0001. that
the Quakers and friends of Greece gave to the committee
or its agents, and which were not remitted to the Greek
,deputation in London, since they told me in Greece that
not even the half had reached them.' The money which
the Quakers raised, andwhich amounted to about 10,0001.
was distributed by themselves in works of benevolence—
in assistance rendered to fugitive and captive Greeks, and
in the education of 'a number of Grecian youths. The
Quakers are not—we will tell the Count this secret, as he
is a stranger and a foreigner—the Quakers are not accus-
tomed to employ their resources blindly or foolishly. Some
public subscriptions certainly were paid over to the Greek
deputation ; that of Calcutta, for instance, which amount-
ed to 2,2001.; and we discovered on inquiry, to our sur-
prise and sorrow, that only 1,20 W. had been passed to the
credit of the Greek Government, while a note was attach-
ed to the entry, ' Mr. Orlando will privately account for
the remaining 1,000/.'
"But we are enabled to give an outline of the manner
in which the funds of the Greek Committee have been
appropriated, and we are sure public opinion will hear
us out in the conviction that these funds -have been well
applied.
"We regret that publicity has not hitherto been. given
to the appropriation of the money committed to their
charge; but we think the time is arrived when the com- 1
mittee should no longer hesitate about circulating a tole- j
rably minute statement of manner in which they have I
discharged their trust; not so much because thsy have
been calumniated by those Who would not have been less
disposed to calumniate whatever measures the committee
might have taken, hut in order to show that they have not
only honestly, but prudently applied the pecuniary means
placed at their disposal.

" Five hundred pounds have been paid, or appropriated
towards the education and expenses of the Greek boys
who have been cent to England, and this amount will,
with a very small difference, balance the sum of subscrip-
tions collected in this country. That they have been
economically distributed, we know. There has been no
expensive machinery of secretaries and clerks ; no waste,
no jobbing in any shape whatever; and we believe, too,
that these subscr►ptions have been judicio►4y distributed.

" The object we have proposed to ourselves is only to
state the facts connected with the Greek cause in Eng-
land; and if we have gone somewhat at length into the
proceedings of the Greek Committee, it is because we
consider that body to have represented the sympathies of
English feeling in favour of Grecian independence. The
measures adopted by the Committee are sufficiently elo-
quent to speak for themselves. They appear to us to have
been altogether wise and salutary. Of the active spirit
which animated that Committee, of the desire they felt to
obtain the best information, and to turn it to the best ac-
count, we ourselves have seen abundant evidence. We
know that several thousand letters were received and re-
plied to by the Committee, referring to almost every sub-
ject the discussion of which could benefit Greece. For a
long time they sat daily ; for two years they sat weekly ;
and their relations extended far beyond the limits of
Europe. Among them will be found the names of many
of the most illustrious of our poets, of our statemen, of
our merchants; and certainly no men ever dedicated
themselves more cordially to the cause they had espoused.

We understand that the new Mayor of Newcastle-
upon-Tyne (Archibald Reed, Esq.) has already given
great satisfaction to the inhabitants of that populous
town, by the introduction of a new system of police.
It was the custom heretofore to have onl three Conn-
days weekly (viz. the Mondays, Wednesdays, and
Fridays), for the transaction of public business. His
Worship, however, humanely considering the impor-
tance
of quick dispatch of justice, (and many humble
individuals, it should be recollected, are imprisoned
now-a-days b the Dogherrys of the night for very
slight offences), has determined that the Court of the
Mayor's Chamber, at the Guildhall, shall be opened
every day to transact whatever business may judicially
conic before it. Thus, many a poor creature who; but
for such a praiseworthy arrangement, might have been
incarcerated. the greater part of forty-eight hours, may
now haply be liberated in the course of eight or ten.
JUNCTION OF THE ATLANTIC AND PACIFIC
°CIA Nc—One of the most extraordinary instances of
that change of general policy arising out of the new
position in which the South American provinces have
placed themselves, is a recent undertaking by the
Guaiimala Government, to connect the Atlantic and
Pacific Oceans by a canal, which shall pass through
the Lake of Nicaragua. The house which is said to
have contracted with the Guatimaia Govesnment for
the ondertaking is that of Painter and to. of the

STATE OF MELANt;

St It—ihe state of Ireland at, this moment presents
a fearful picture to the human mind, and, we have rea-
son to believe, excites considerable anxiety in the rul-_

„ ,

it were in readiness, to break out Into open rebellion

contrive to evade giftftlielon 1. a coontry in such a state,
I say, may well excite anxiety to those vilio are the

that, but to lay open some of the causes which have
helped to' niake her what • she is, and to endeavour to
plied before yoiir readers what might be beneficial to
her, ere the inotiVes Which have induced the writer of
this to trouble you at the present time, feeling that a
long residence in Ireland, and among the natives them-
selves, gives him an insight into many things which a
superficial visitant to this island could not possess, and
which the higher Irish themselves would disavow, and
hide, from the English, to whom, in ge-.
nerai f,ithP°eirs,sbdiisklike is great. The IoW rate of wages is
the and the true cause, of almost all
the evils we
etlsie rsgefi
artound us: The Irish labourer, spend-
ing the spring .of, his years and the strength of his
youth, carniot at any time earn sufficient to support
himself and the smallest family ; in times of health
and full employment. he can barely supply them with
potatoes and a little meal, leaving nothing whatever for
the little comforts in his cabin, or the decent clothing
of himself and family ; and when no work can be had,
what then can he do ? whither can he go ? no parish
to assist him—no friendly visitants to comfort and re-
lieve him—in sickness, of course, it is still. worse ; in
both cases his wife and children become beggars, and
he, having nothing to do, and his mind under the in-
fluence of disgnst at the inequality of stations in life, is
open to the suggestions of those whose interest it is to
excite confusion and dissatisfaction. Ido not mean
to deny that the landlords are very generous in giving
medicines, money, and at certain times clothing, to
their tenantry, but the poor man feels wounded
in receiving that. as charity to which he . knows
he has a right ; for though he may not be able
to reason the point deeply, he feels, and keenly
feels, that he who tills the soil has a right to live by the
soil ; absolutely needing this charity to preserve his
life, he implores for it by every moving appeal, and
often by any lie he thinks least likely,to be discovered.
Thus, to his landlord's face, he is the meanest of syco-
phants, but on the slightest provocation ready to in-
jure him in his property by any theft,, and looking for
the time when he flatters himself open rebellion will per-
mit him to seize that which he considers his due--
the gentry of the country never visit the miser-
able cabins, ,and their • tattered inhabitants, which
arises from the same cause, their poverty pre7•
vents decency of clothing, their single room is full of
all manner of filth, with nothing on 'which to sit down,
and' of course disease, commonly typhus fever, is, a
very usual inmate ; thus, persons are fearful of infec-
tion and vermin, and thus these poor creatures are left
in utter ignorance of every thing they ought to know,
and are taught by their priests to believe that it is all
arising front the -yrielltednesa of Government in refusing
Catholic Emancipation, which they think would act as a
charm in making them healthy, happy, and rich ;
thus all the evil • passions of untutored human nature
are fostered towards their Protestant neighbours, 'be-
tween whom and themselves mortal hatred is always
manifesting itself when able, in acta of malice and re-
venge. If, therefore, a dry season like the present oc-
curs, how is the poor man to. meet -the increased price
of potatoes and of oats ? he cannot do it, otherwise
than by imploring charity front his landlord or some
rich neighbour, of whom he has but few, and then too
how often is his landlord an absentee ? in this state
of misery we can hardly follow our poor brother, he
and his family' become wanderers, and thus a very
large part of the population of Ireland arc very
little removed in any respect from savages. When
the tenants are guilty of any acts of rebellion or cruelty,
the landholders make bitter complaints of • their in-
gratitude, little considering that they are living in
luxury on the produce of that soil which the poor man
has an.equal right to. share. To the poor4ates (which
must be introduced into Ireland) the rich have an in-
veterate objection, because in most cases they would
be obliged to pay as a tax what they now delight to
think they voluntarily give in charity, and they like
their poor to beg that as a boon rather
,than claim it
as a right ; but though Poor Rates, established by
Act of Parliament, would be the most beneficial Mea-
sure ever adopted towards this mis-governed country;
they would not be sufficient unless the rate of wages
was increased and settled also by Act of Parliament ;
provisions are not quite as dear as in England, but
they are not very materially lower, and the best waes
here given to a labouring man, do not exceed 4d.
English, per diem, and generally not -more than 7d.--
Can we then wonder at any thing. that may arise in
such a state of things, and shall we any longer be sur-
prised that conciliating meast res, as they have been
called, should fail, when in truth they are but cutting
off a branch, when, to. do any good, we must strike
at the root ? Schools are in themselves excellent; but
the more you enlighten the mind, the more clearly will
it become acquainted with its natural rights. Ho not
.enter on the question of Catholic Emancipation, be-
cause it is not the refusing or the granting it, that
would of itself do any good. Increase the wages, give
the poor man that which is
*just equal to provide • for
his relief in sickness and distress, and very soon we
ing, as respectable, and as happy, as our beloved Eng-
should have the happiness of seeing Ireland as flourish-
land. I am, -

FRENCH PAPERS. .

(From the Journal des Debate.)
The evasive arid dilatory answer which the Infant Don
Miguel has given to the defnand of the Princess Regent,
bears upon it the dissembling character 6f the Austrian
policy; for who can suppose that Don Miguel, at the in-
stant when he took measures to prolong the discussion;
was ignorant,of the sentiments of the Austrian Cabinet.—
It is this Cabinet itself, which, having need to reflect and
to gain time, has &fated this answer; which, at the same
time, we do not pretend; to find fault with. We do not
like those instantaneous and forced sulrinissions, by which
a despotic will would, desire to repress privateopinions;
ind we ,think that Don Miguel has a perfect right to Con-
sider whit Pe ought to do, and to stipulate.for those 'pre-
rogatives which may devolve upon him. His adhesion to
the acts of his brother andltg, will be so much the
more authentic, and so much the more solemn, as it will
corve after mature deliberation and voluntary cofittatt,
If, la writing to his brother and King, Don Miguel has
made use of iiiiiiabte terms, his letter will be a recognition
of Don Pedro's rights Of sovereignty; consequently of
his right to frame a Constitution.
If not, Don Pedro will, without doubt, send back the
' letter, whiCh will be as if it had never been received.
But Prince Metternich, the real author of the letter,
will fake care not to send a declaration which might hurt
Don Pedro: He only wishes to gain time, in order to
demand, ostensibly, some guarantees for the consequences
of the establishment of the Constitutional system ; and,
secretly, some modifications of the system itself.
This dilatory process can have few disagreeable. conse-
quences, as to nourishing the hopes of the discontented ;
but it cannot prevent the execution of the Charter, nor
the organization of the Constitutional Powers, By ob-
liging the Portuguese Chambers to observe a wise and
temperate conduct, by imposing on the Regency the duty
of an active superintendence, this timid' opposition will
only secure. the triumph of true liberty.
It is plain, from the circumstances, that Austria has not
given either a violent; a menacing, or an'hostile reply to
the notification Iron! Don Pedro. Such is not the man-
ner of that Cabinet. If there was a reply of that descrip-
tion, it would naturally have drawn. with it a protest, no
less violent, on the part of Don Miguel. This answer is
altogether a fable, at much as that which is attributed to
the Emperor Nicholas.

It is affirmed, that none of the Turkish Ministers, ,nor
Foreign Ambassadors, have dared to submit to the Grand
Seignior the Russian demands. To demand, conformably'
to treaties, that lawful and invariable order should be esta-
blished in 'Wallachia and Moldavia, is in the eyes of the
Turks, to take away those two provinces altogether. With
respect to the forts situate in Asia, at the foot of the Caticasus,
an arrangement may possibly take place, as Russia offers
in compensation some forts recently built in Gouria. The
article, however, which most alarms the avarice of the
Divan, is that. in which Russia, in addition to the sums
due to her plundered subjects, demands from the Porte a
round sum of 6,000,000 of silver rubles. Sultan Mith-
moud will never be prevailed on to,make so considerable a
sacrifice.

The motive of the journey to Paris of Mr. Gallatin,
Minister of the United States to the Court of London,
and who has been here these two days, appears to be of
some importance. They state from London, that this Mi-

molt, could not postpone more than four and twenty hours
his coming to have a conference with Mr. Canning.

rabia is coneeutrating, that it daily receives reinforce-
ments, and that the Austrian army is about to be consi-
derably augmented.
All those Papers have chosen their time badly, for en-
deavouring to disturb meal's minds respecting the negocia-
tions relative to the affairs of the East. It is on this very
day, the 7th of October, that the time, fixed by Russia for
a definitive answer from the Divan, expires. It can then
be of trifling importance, that the conferences at Akermann
are suspended, for want of sufficient instructions to the
Turkish Commissioners from their Government, since a
definitive answer must be given to the Russian Minister,
at Constantinople, on the only points which have raised
any difficulty at Akermann. With respect to the army
of Bessarabia, all the world knows that it has been con-
centrated for a considerable time. This pretended news
shows that the Journals which give it know nothing of
what they talk about, and what they say, respecting the
augmentation of the Austrian army, is a new proof of it.
The Queen of Wirtemberg has been safely delivered of
a daughter.

goldsmiths, last week,
bearing the fol-
lowing inscription :—" Presented by the inhabitants of

tent, and independent conduct, during the General

Arms, handsomely embossed, of Mr. B caurnOnt.—
The form and workmanship are very beautiful, and
the whole is surmounted by a finely modelled figure of
