FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

PARIS, OCT. 30.—Next Saturday, (this day)
there will be a meeting of the Deputies in the
Hall of Conferences, to appoint a grand Deputa-
tion for the day of the Royal Sitting to open the
Sessions.

The Prince de Croy, Bishop of Strasburg, has
been appointed Grand Almoner of France, in
place of the late Archbishop of Paris.
We have pleasure in stating-, that M. Mazet,
one of the French physicians at Barcelona, who
was reported to have fallen a victim to the yellow
fever, is now oat of danger. M. Bailly, another
of these gentlemen, is also much better.

Our accounts from Barcelona are dated the
20th; they represent that desolation and the
most frightful misery reign in that town. The
state of health between Barcelona and the fron-
tiers is m3re satisfactory.
At Tortosa, notwithstanding, the sums ()tiered
by the Government, -no person can be found to
bury the dead. There is a talk of- razing the
town. Other reports say, that they are going to
try the experiment of purifying the atmosphere
by bombarding Tortosa. Many physicians pre-
tend, and their opinion has been confirmed by
experience, that the seat of the disorder is in the
air; :t is therefote hoped some benefit may be
derived from this violent measure, which is,
however, rendered necessary by the progress of
the disorder. As the whole of the inhabitants
have quitted Tortosa, the experiment may safely
be tried.

VIENNA, OCT. 19.—Our latest accounts from
Zante: of the 21st September, contain the follow-
ing statements :

" On the I.4th, the Turkish fleet, joined with
the squadron of the Pacha. of Egypt, came to an
anchor in our roads, having, on its cruize, pro-
visioned several fortresses-in the Morea, among
_which are Coral and Motan. Padrona Bey, the
Admiral, assured the Governor of this island, to
whom he paid a long visit soon after his arrival,
that, from his leaving the Dardanelles till his ar-
rival here, he had only once descried eight or
ten Greek ships, but at a great distance ; and
that, during the whole time, he -had not had even
the most trilling action _with any part of the
Greek fleet. On the 15th, the Admiral detached
part of the fleet northwards, towards Corfu, to
join the squadron of the Captain Bey lying there.
On the 18th, he himself, with the remainder of
the fleet, sailed for the Gulf of Patras.-Chorschid
.Pacha has received certain intelligence that con-
siderable reinforcements are on the way from the
Capital through Macedonia and Thessaly to join
Tim. Eight thousand men had already arrived
at his head quarters, at Joannina, on which
.he immediately detached a division by the
road of Arta and Messalongi, to Lepanto,
to clear those parts from the Insurgents.—
Two Deputies from Hydra and Spezia lately
appeared in the Greek camp before Tripoliza,
and required from the Chiefs of the Morea two
millions of piastres, without which they could
atot continue to take an efficient share in the
contest, and offered them in the present crisis all
possible support. But where shall the unfor-
tunate Moreans get two millions of piastres, as
the most powerful and' opulent among them have
sent all their property out of the country for
safety ?—The inhabitants of the Islands of
.hydra, Spezia, and Ipsara, it is true, are also in
the most deplorable situation. Their islands are
alaked rocks, which produce nothing, and their
whole prosperity depends immediately on the
.briskness of their trade with foreign nations,
-which has been wholly interrupted since the
commencement of the Revolution. To this must
be added, that these Islanders are in the utmost
.dissention among themselves, and that in their
marines, as among the insurgents on shore, none
are disposed to obey, but every one wishes to
.command."

FRANKFORT, OCT. 27.—A circular, addressed
by a great German Court (Austria) to all the
Governments of the Germanic Confederation, is
.the subject of universal conversation. This note
states in substance, that in the existing negocia-
tions the Greek insurrection has never been con-
sidered as lawful, nor have the sovereign rights of
the Ottoman Government been disputed ; that,
if the Great Powers think proper to interfere in
the affairs of Turkey, this interference, founded
on treaties and the law of nations, is not de-
signed to effect any_of the chimerical projects
imagined by some foreign political dreamers ;
that all the Powers regard the culpable efforts
of some individuals, in raising men to tight in
favour of the Greeks, as a manoeuvre of the ene-
mies of the peace of Europe, and not undertaken
for the benefit of the Greeks, but to bring them
to certain ruin ; that the Sovereigns are no less
astonished at the licence of some writers, &c. &c.
Though •we do not know precisely the con-
tents of this communication, it is certain that all
persons suspected of recruiting for the. Greeks
are arrested and sent beyond the boundaries- of
our town. Those who attempt to 'go to the Mo-
rea thro' the Austrian states are also arrested, and
many .of them have been sent to Mantua. Most
of the Journals are kept under a strict Censorship.
It is reported that the King of England is ;ruing
.to Berlin, but not with any political object.
AIX-LA-CHAPELLE, •OCT. 2.3.—(Extract of a
.Private Letter.)The conferences which are
About to take place at Hanover will no doubt
.be attended with the most important results. It
is intended, according to all accounts, to propose
measures which, in concert with Russia, shall be
taken to put an end to the troubles which agi-
tate the East of Europe, and to settle de-
finitively the fate of Greece. It seems that,
besides the Prince de Metternich and Count
Bertistoff, the Prussian Minister,- the chief Minis-
ters of several other Powers have -also been in-
sited to repair to Hanover with Out delay. This
assembly of diplomatists may therefore be con-
sidered as a Congress• appointed to decide the
great question of peace or war between the Ot-
torrian Porte and Russia.

'We li-arn from good authority that immediately
after the departure of the Prince de Metternich
for Hanover, the Aulic, Council of War at Vienna

gave orders to get ready for active service several
regiments in Bohemia, Moravia and Hungary.
Nevertheless these orders are deemed mere
measures of precarition.

The Greeks established at Vienna do all in
their power to make it believed that war be-
tween the Russians and Turks is inevitable. On
the other hand the Austrian Government causes
the Official Journals to contradict, from time to
time, the reports which are daily circulated
against the maintenance of peace.
AUGSBURG, OCT. 20.—There is a young man
of letters here who has just returned from a very
interesting journey. Impelled by ardent enthu-
siasm for the cause of the Greeks, he embarked
towards the end of June, from Sicily for Zante,
hastened to the Morea, and as the British Go-
vernment does not allow- any vessels to go to
Calamata, he ventured with three companions to
go on foot through the Western Peloponnesus,
was plundered, wounded, and nearly killed by
the Moreotes, on the way near Paulisso, the aa-
cient Phigalia ; but contrived, however, to reach
Calamata, at that time the head-quarters of the
Moreote Greeks. What Le there saw and ob-
served in a short time destroyed all his hopes,
all his ideas; and though he had come with the
resolution to die, if necessary, for the deliver-
ance and regeneration of Greece, though he was
at that time destitute of every resource, he chose
quickly to leave the Greeks rather than remain
among them. Ile accordingly left Calamata at
the end of July, and returned by way of the
lonian Islands to Venice, and thence to Ger-
many. He wishes that all those who, with their
overflowing hearts and valiant arms, think of
going to the Morea, may defer the execution of
their purpose for a time. Perhaps the true pic-
ture of the present state of the Peninsula, as well
as what he was there obliged to see and to en-
dure, may change, the views of many persons,
and save them from repenting when it will be
too late.

HERMANSTADT, OCT. 4.—Melancholy accounts
have been received of the unhappy fate of the
brave Captain Jordaki and his companions in
arms, which have caused great despondency in
the Greeks who are now here. The statement
that Jordaki had been saved by his own people,
appears to have been ill-founded. The remainder
of the sacred battalion which he had encouraged
to throw itself into the convent of Secka, has pe-
rished before his eyes. For some days they
made the rn6st heroic resistance, but the Turks
had received a reinforcement of three thou-
sand fresh troops, and at length stormed the
convent, where they put all to the sword.—
Jordaki was found ill, and covered with
wounds, in a cell, where his faithful companion,
Farmacki, was lying at his side. These two
friends, who would not separate, are threatened
with the most dreadful fate, unless death should
deliver them before they arrive at Constanti-
nople ; for it is easy to see the end which awaits
them there they cannot fail of suffering martyr-
dom together.—Captain Diamanty, who was pre-
viously delivered to the Turks by the treachery
of Caminar Sawa, is said to have been taken by
them from Silistria to the capital, for the same
purpose. history will eternize their names, and
Europe will justly deplore their fate. They
were the generous but deceived instruments of
Count C--, and have fallen as heroes. The
authors of this unhappy and premature insurrec-
tion, especially the above-mentioned Count
C--, are generally cursed by the Greeks, as
the support of Russia, which was promised by
them, never came. The veil which covers all
these events will probably not be put aside till
a later period.—For some weeks past the Turks
have received reinforcements in Moldavia,
whereas the troops have almost wholly left
Wallachia.—According to accounts from Bucha-
rest, of Sept. 2.9, only 1,500 men remained there.'
The destruction of the Iletarists, which may now
be considered as complete, will be followed by
the departure of the whole.
BANKS OF THE RHINE, OCT. 30.—The foun-
dation of Archbishopricks and Bishopricks, and
the liberal endowment of the Catholic religion,
have excited the highest joy and gratitude in the
Prussian Provinces of the Rhine, where the great
majority of the inhabitants profess that religion
Bausscr.s, Our. 26.—1 t is certain that his
Britannic Majesty, on his return from Hanover,
will stop one or two days in this capital. It is
even said that our King and the Royal Family
will come to Brussels to receive him. Lord
Clancarty, the English Ambassador at our Court,
has already arrived from the Hague to attend
upon his Sovereign, and the necessary prepara-
tions are making in his hotel with all diligence.
—Our accounts from the frontiers of France
state, that all the young men of the class of 1819,
who are summoned to complete the cavalry and
the chosen companies of infantry, have just re-
ceived throughout France orders to join the re-
giments in a very few days. A great number of
them are already on their march for their respec-
tive destinations. On the other hand, some re-
giments in garrison in the interior are sAt their
way to the Pyrenees, for the purpose of rein-.
forcing the immense cordon which is established
from the ocean to the Mediterranean. If these
measures are taken from apprehensions that the
yellow fever may penetrate into France, it must
be owned that they are excessive at this mo-
ment, since this contagious disorder generally
disappears at the approach of winter. It is
certain that in Spain some fears have been ex-
cited on the subject, which the Liberal Journals
even take pleasure in exaggerating.
ZANTE, SEPT. 25.—M. Fauvel, the French
Vice Consul at Athens, has written to M.
at Zante, a letter, of which the following is an
extract :

" ZcA, AuG. 28.—' Et nos patriain fugimus.'
—I have been obliged to quit the country of my
heart, and I recommend to you the unfortunate
French families who have been obliged to aban-
don Athens at the same time as myself. The
inhabitants of Attica are flying in all directions
from the Mahometans; they arrive at Zea, drag,
girg with them whatever they have teen able to
bring away. The island in which we are is not
very hospitable, and the owners of the boats take
advantage of the occasion to rob and pillage their
countrymen."

AIVIEFLICAS PAPERS.

NEW SPAIN.

DECLARATION OF TIIE INDEPENDENCE OF MEXICO

[From the Charleston Gazette of September 27.1

By the arrival yesterday of the brig Catherine,
Wellsman, in fire days from Havannah, we have
received some late accounts from Mexico, and
particularly from the seat of war.
A cessation of hostilities between the Patriots
and Royalists has taken place. On the 11th of
August, Colonel Santana had agreed to the pro-
position of the Viceroy, that the gates of La
Vera Cruz should be thrown open the next day,
that the prisoners on both sides should be liber-
ated, and that the country people be allowed to
come unarmed, and in no great numbers.
Plan of the government that is to be establish-
ed provisionally for the purpose of securing our
holy religion, and establishing the independence
of the Mexican empire, under. the title of the
Administrative Junta of North America, pro-
posed by Colonel Don Augustin de iturbide, to
his Excellency the Count de Venadito, Viceroy
of New Spain :

• 1. The religion of New Spain is and shall be the Catholic
Apostolic Roman religion, without toleration of any other.
2. New Spain is independent of Old Spain, and of every
other Power, even upon our own continent.

3. Its Government shall be a limited monarchy conformably
to the constitution that may be adopted by the kingdom.
4. Its Emperor shall be Don Ferdinand the Seventh ; hut in
case he shill not personally appear in Mexico within the time
that the Cortes shall specify, in order to take the oath, the most
Serene Infant Don Carlos, Don Francisco de Paula, the Arch-
duke Charles, or such other individual of the reigning family
as Congress may think proper, shall be called in his place.
5. Until the Cortes shall meet, there shall be a Junta for the
purpose of bringing about such meeting, and causing the plan
to be executed in its full extent.

6. Said Junta, which shall be denominated administrative, is
to be composed of the Members named in the letter of his tx-
ccllency the Viceroy, by which it shall be. convened.
7. Until Don Ferdinand the Seventh shall present himself in
Mexico and take the oath, the .Junta shall govern in his Ma-
jesty's name, in virtue of the oath of fidelity which the nation
has taken. Nevertheless the execution of all the orders that he
may give previously to his taking the oath shall be suspended
until then.

8. If Don Ferdinand the Seventh shall not condescend to
come to Mexico, the Junta or the Regency shall govern in the
name of the nation, until the Emperor who is to be crowned
shall be fixed upon.
9. This Government shall be maintained by the army of
the three guarantees hereinafter mentioned.
10. The Cortes shall dettrmine upon the Constitution-
of a Regency, until the
.arrival of a person who is to be
crowned.
11. The Cortes shall afterwards establish the Constitution of
the Mexican Empire.
12. All the inhabitalts of New Spain, without any distinc-
tion of Europeans, Africans, or Indians, are citizens of this Mo.
narchy, and eligible to every office, according to their merit
and virtue.,

13. The person and property of every citizen shall be re-
spected and protected by, the Government.
14. The secular and regular Clergy shall be preserved in all
their rights and pre-eminences.- •
15: The Junta shall take care that all the departments of tha,
State remain without any alteration, and that all Civil and Mi-
litary Officers continue in their present situations ; those only
shall be removed who may refuse to concur in the plan, sub-'
stituting in their place such persons as may be most distinguish.
ed for virtue and merit.

16. A protecting Army shall be formed, which shall be deno-
minated the Army of the Three Guarantees, inasmuch' as it
takes under its protection, in the first place; the preservation of
the Catholic Apostolic Romish religion, using all methods in
its power that there may be no mixture of any other sect, and
that the enemies that may threaten it be timely attacked ; se-
condly, independence under the system above mentioned ;
thirdly, the intimate union of Europeans and Americans ; and
guarantees these fundamental bases of the felicity of New
Spain, to the infraction of which, rather than consent, it shall
sacrifice itself, from the Commander-in-Chief to the last man.

17. The troops of the Army shall observe the most exact dis-
cipline, to the very letter of the articles of war ; and the chiefs
and officers shall continue upon the footing on which they now
are ; that is to say, in their respective stations, with eligibility
to the offices now vacant, and which may be vacated by such
persons as may be unwilling to serve, and with eligibility to
such new offices as may 'be considered necessary or convenient.
18. The troops of the said Army shall be considered as of
the line.

19. The same privilege shall be enjoyed by those who shall
enlist without delay, and by those who, •iiaving borne arms in
support of the former system of independence, shall imme-
diately join the said Army ; and pie peasants who may enlist
shall be considered as troops of the national Militia; and they
shall all be employed for the internal and external security of
the Kingdom, in such manner as the Cortes may direct.

20. The Commis ions shall be granted according to real
merit, as reported by the respective commanding oflic-ers, and'
in the nava?, of the nation, provisionally.'
21. Until the Cortes shall otherwise direct, proceedings in cri-
minA cases shall be agreeably to the Spanish constitution.
22. In case of conspiracy against the independence, the cul-
prit shall - be imprisoned until the Cortes shall determine upon
the punishment of that grcitest of all crimes, except those
against the Divine Majesty.
23. Such persons as may attempt to foment disunion shall
be watched, and reputed as consyirators against independence.

24. As the Cortes who are to be installed are to frame a con-.
stitution, it is necessary that the Deputies should receive powers
sufficient for that purpose ; and as it is also of much importance
that the electors should know they are to be represented in the
Congress of Mexico, and not in that of Madrid, the Junta shall
prescribe just rules for the election, and shall designate the time
of it, and the time of the opening of the Congress ; and as the
elections cannot now take place in March, the time shall be ex-
tended as much as possible.
