[7.IOEZNING cnaoxlcLE.]
The Speech of the King of France on opening
the Chambers, which arrived yesterday by ex-
press, and which our Readers will find in another
coiumn, describes in strong language the internal
prosperity of France. " if we take a view of
our domestic state," he says, " what motives
have we not 'to bless Providence ! The sensible
progress of industry, agriculture, and the arts,
attests that of commerce ; and very soon new
channels, by multiplying the means of communi-
cation and of traffic, will extend the general good
to all parts of the kingjorn." Stress is also laid
on Theorosperity of the finances. We rejoice
at this prosperity of our neighbours, which affords
another proof of the vivifying effects of freedom,
and th - best refutation of those 'who condemn
the Revolution, the parent of the institutions
which have called forth. this activity and pros-
perity. Though the amount of liberty enjoyed
by the French falls far short of what
..was in
the contemplation of the great and good men
of the Constituent As.sernhly, still it has been
of incalculable benefit to them. .The ex-
ample, we trust, will not always be thrown
away on unhappy Italy. As was expected, an
allusion has been made to Turkey. What is said,
however, is
,exceedingly vague. " Great cala-
mities'aillict the Elst. Let us hope that they
approach their termination, and that the pru-
dence and cordiality of all the Powers will find
the means of satisfying what religion, policy, and
humanity may justly demand.", This may mean
any thing, and in the'present ticklish state of
'affairs, it would not have done to be mere ek-
Flieit. The negociatiOns at Hanover, the Berlin
Gtr:ette Declaration, the reports from St. Peters-
burgh, all point to the difficulties which the,
Allies have with respect to this subject. We
have our doubts with respect to the cordiality.
The Greeks, in the mean time, seem to be gain-
ing additional advantages ovei• the Turks. Tri-
poliza, the capital of the Morea, is reported to
hayelallen into their hands.

EITRITISH PRESS.I-
- Thp reference wade by the King of France to
the affairs of .the• East of Europe are of general
importance, more especially as they are accom-
Futile& by an expression of his•conficlence that
,his relations :with Foreign Powers: will expe-
rience no interruption of the -friendly terms on
which they are now maintained. Els Majesty
sees reason to hope that the difficulties now sub-,
sisting between Russia and the Porte -will bead- 1
jUsted. • The terms used by his Majesty would,
however, imply that no final accommodation has
as yet been effected between the rival Powers.—
:Nothing can tend more to conciliate the affection
of the people of France towards their King than'
'the anxiety he evinces to lighten their burdens, as
quickly as may be consistent with public conve- '
"nience. It is but a short time since a large pro-
portion of the land-tax of France was remitted, at
the suggestion of the King himself, and now his
'Majesty again directs the attention of the Depu-
ties to the probability. that may arise of still.furi
ther diminishing the weight of taxation. A King
so benignantly alive to the iiterests and desires
of his people merits their warmest.gratitude ; and
1.7 a find from the tenor of the Speech, as it pro-
ceeds, an assurance that the beneficial results
.of his Majesty's Government are beginning to
be appreciated by his subjects in general, for
." every where- passions are .subsiding and sus-
picions wearing away." The King has effected
a triumph in the breast of many of his enemies
over prejudices and passions the worst and
strongest •that could be entertained ; but this
triumph as yet belongs to the King personally :
by the influence, however, of his Majesty's cha-
racter, it is possible that even theßourbons may,
as a family, once more become popular in France.

[NEW TIMES.]
Letters from Smyrna.to the Ist October, and
from Odessa to the 9th, were received yesterday.
At the former place, but little business was doing,
in consequence of information that the Greek fleet
was still at sea ; for it was rationally enough appre-
hended that these cruisers would not be scrupulous
as to the property they might seize. At Odessa,
on the contrary, trade wasagain become very briSk.
Orders to a large amount had been received from
England; but the letters were very silent on politics.
Some persons augured war from the :favourable
reception given to Baron Strogonoff by the Empe-
ror Alexander,who is said to have bestowed on that
Diplomatist the Order of St. Wladimir ; but we
own that this circumstance (if true) would, in
our opinion, bear a different construction. We
should suppose that the Emperor felt himself
obliged to adopt a more amicable policy than that
acted upon by Baron Strogonoff, but that consi-
dering the Baron not to be personally to blame,
he had adopted this mode of relieving him from
any odium on the subject. It will not fail to be
observed, that the language of the King of
France to the Legislative Chambers is strongly
in favour of the expectation of peace. His Most
Christian Majesty expresses a hope " that the
prudence and cordiality of all the Powers will
find the means of satisfying what Religion, Po-
and Humanity may justly demand." •

-~-

Our Neapolitan letters mention a most im-
portant fact, which we hope soon to see officially
announced.'. ft is' that Count Frimonf, the Aus-
trian General in that kingdov-, feels himself so
secure of the tranquillity of the kingdom as to
. .
propose that the Artily of Occupation shall be
reduced to 30,000 men. This is a triumphant
answer.to all,the bold assertions of the universal
prevalence .of a revolutionary spirit in that.king-
dom. A few rebels called themselves " the
Nation ;" and their imposture obtained implicit
credit from The Times and The Morning Chro-
nick ; bn.t the real nation has cheered with plea-
sure the return of legitimate order.—(kid.)

• • [THE TIMES.]
We have spoken of-the—dependence of, Police.
3lagistrates as an unconstitutional and inconsis-

tent abuse, in a country where the -independence'
of Judges was recognized as a prmciple essential
to the public liberty. But there is another
ground on :which the complete independence of
the above Magistrates ought to be established
by Parliament—we mean the policy of increasing
,as much as possible the respect of the people for
those who administer the l'aws. The Magistrates
throughout England, who act without pay, enjoy,
in general, the respect and confidence of the
nation. They are not generally suspected of a
.corrupt bias in favour of the Crown, because
they owe to it no obligation. The Government
is, on the .other hand, the- obliged, party : the
talents, the time, the activity, and resolution, of
educated-men, being devoted gratuitously to the
maintenance of public order, and to the distribu-
tion of justice, the most universal and precious of
all social interests, it would be unreasonable in
most cases to suspect their motives, and a public
injury needlessly to impugn their acts. But this
is not the feeling entertained with regard to sti-
pendiary Magistrates. All men will incline to
canvass and depreciate.the judgments of those
whose personal interests may be affected by their
judicial conduct. Every man who is punished,
or reprehended, or accused, will think himself
aggrieved by a Magistrate under the slightest
taint or imputation of possible bias : the law then,
comes in for a share of the odium incurred, how-
ever underservedly, by its ministers, and Govern-
ment itself loses, by a necessary chain of Causes,
the most powerful and secure of all its means of
ascendancy over the popular mind.

[MORNING POST.]
A Pamphlet has just appeared under the title
of " War in Greece," which, independent of
the interest naturally associated with its sub-
ject, will be read with delight by the enthu-
siast in the Greek cause ; with gratification by
the more sober-minded philanthropist ; with
attention by the' calculating politician, and with
information by all. The author reasons with
no common stock of acquaintance with military
tactics, and particularly as applying to a war.
of defence, upon the means to be used by. the
Greeks in order to bring the mighty conflict for
their liberties to a successful termination: He
first treats rather superficially of the Greek .cha-
racter- in the earlier ages, and gives an energetic
description of the present state of that unhappy
people. An interesting comparison is then drawn
between the moral and physical powers possessed
by the Greeks and. those of their barbarous op-
pressors. •0 f the Greeks it is said•—:
lst. They are far more numerous than their enemies.
•
2cl. They possess equal coinage.
3d. They possess the greatest part of the country, and many
large tracts,. dnd some islands where the Turk, even in the day
of his strength, never mild penetrate; and these fOrm so many
impregnable fortresses from which to draw supplies:
4th. The Greeks have sailors; the Turk§ have none.
sth. The machine of Turkish GOVernment has, in ail its su-
bordinate parts, been worked by Greeks, and will go on badly
without them.

6th. The Greeks are better informed on all sabjeets than the
Turks.

7th. They fight, not for civil and religious freedom alone,
but for existence ; extirpation is certain it they are defeated :
whereas the Turks have Asia Minor to retreat into; and only
fight for a province belonging to their Sovereign.'
Bth. The best troops the?ultan hadin his army are amongst
those Greeks now in aims against him ; and •
9th. The. Turkish army may have courage 'and arms, bpt no-
thing else, and is not entitled to the name of •an'armr; it is
numerous banditti, so bad, that the last Emperor lost his life
by an attempt to restore discipline, and introduce the European
system among the Janissaries.
Against these nine advantages, may bp placed those on the
.
side of the TurkS: • _ _

Ist. They have an established government.
•
2d. They hold most of the fortresses.
11. The Sultan may hate great Command of n-loney if he
acts wisely.
4th. Ile has greater means of forging arms and making gun-
powder. A total ignorance of the art of :war, and a complete
want of discipline, is a disadvantage ctiihmbn to both Greek's
and Turks ; but the former have the advantage of being aware
of their ignorance, and eager to remedy the defect.- This feel-
ing is a host of strength on their side. 'Thus nine points are in:
favour of the Greeks, and four against.them : the matter then
resolves itself into this. The Greeks must labour with energy
to gain the ascendancy in the four points of their weakness, and
to maintain it in the nine of their strength : bow to do this is,
not, difficult to skew; it consists in the formation of a civil and
a military 'government : the first to draw forth and regulate the
resources of the country, the second to wield them.
