FOREIGN INTkLaGENCE.

MADRID, OCT. 16.—The Herculena-'frigate,
from the Havrinnali has brought news Of the ar-
rival of General O'Donoju at Vera Cruz, where
he took the oath, and entered On his fUnctions on
t.he.23d of July ; on which day he published an
energetic Proclamation to• the Inhabitants of
New Spain, shelving the evils to which they ex-
posed themselves; if they pe:sisted in separating
from the mother country. . Iletissued also a Pro-
clamation to the troops, praising their good con-
duct. He set out fora
Mexico
with few sol- '
diet's, but- was forced to return, pursued by the
Insurgents to the very streets of Vera. Cruz,
wherei after an obstinate combat, they were de-
feated with the loss of 150 men.: The insurrec-
tion, however, gains ground, the Insurgents being
masters of all New Spain, except Mexico, Vera
Cruz, and PUebla; and we since find that
have taken the latter. If they send more troops
against Vera Cruz, it must:fall ; and Apodaca, it
is feareil, will scion be obliged to capitulate at.
Mexico. We have since learnt the deposition of
11 podaca. .

The Cortes continue the debate on the Divi-
sion of the Territory. • The following Proyinces
have been approved,' their Capitals bearing the
same name, except where otherwise expressed:--
Itioja, Capital Logrona; Salamanca, Santan-
der ; Segovia, Seville.; Soria,. Toleila,;
&Aid, Teruel ; Tolosa, Bilhcta ; and one--or two
others. The Capital of' the-Canaries is not yet
"determined. .

.Namc Date.—Excepting in a place the. name
of which we do,.not .care_ to
.recollect,
parochial elections-made in the Provinces skew
the same spirit of order, moderation, and love of
the Constitittion, of. which Madrid has given
such a distinguished example.- The elections
have generally fallen on persims, worthy of the
public confidence, and whopromise not to frus-
trate the hopes of the friends of •the Constitu-
tional System when the time for the.district elec-
tions shall, arrive. This" uniformity of .opinions
is a fresh proof that -the public spirit becomes
every day more and more consolidated.

PUERTA DE-. SANTA MARIA, OCT. 6.--Fren,
the Ist' to the 6th
_inclusive, there have died in
this place and hospital,- 39 persons ; 52 have
been cured, and the number of the sick is at
present 814. '

LEBRIJA, OCT. 6.—This town begins to be at-
tacked by the fever. In eight days 33 persons
have been seized with it ; eight have died, and
two recovered, and the cases of the others are in
general dangerous. Almost the whole popula-
tion have gone into the country. The Alcalde
and Municipality facilitate this only means of
salvation, by distributing among the people wood
and reeds to build barracks.

GRANADA, OCT. 10.—The fears of the epi-
demic disorder diminish daily ; but we do not
neglect to take the necessary precautions.
OCT. have received a dispatch from
Malaga, and the accounts of the epidemy are
very afflicting. The Junta and the Munic?-pality
have met, as it seems,_ to double the measures of
precaution.

SARAGOSSA, Oci. 10.—The superior Board of
Health has been informed by it Commissioner,
Don Augustin Quinto, that the sickness at Me,
quinenza is drawing to a close for want of food,
hardly twenty inhabitants, having remained in
the town ; the great• number haying gone into
the country : that even should any of these latter
be attacked, no great alarm need be excited, as
the families are fully kept asunder, and the duty
of the Cordon was strictly performed.

FRANKFORT, OCT. 9.4.—Vienna letters, from a
good seurce,state that the Cabinets of .Vienna,Lon-
don, and Petersburgh, are not yet agreed on the
affairs .of Turkey, but that much harmony and
intimacy is remarked between the two first Courts.
This state of things sufficiently explains the pre-
sent diplomatic myStery ; but if a treaty of sub-
sidies has been.spoken of, the report appears to
us at least premature." It is however certain that
Prince Metternich has gone to Hanover to pay
his court to the King of England. "Is air alliiince
for the maintenance of the balance of Europe in
view ? Be this as it may, it is not likely that the
visit of the Prime.,Minister 'of Austria w,ill be,

make h general destruction. Coron was on the
point of surrendering, but got supplies as the
fleet came out of the Levant. The Greek
Island fleet, consisting of more than 150 sail of
merchantmen, was Immediately to follow the
Turks, whom they only wanted, according to their
own account, to surprise atanchor. They have not,
however, shewn themselves, nor do I expect, they
will. They are known to be excellent seamen,
and no doubt might effect much annoyance
to their ill-provided enemy ; but it is said
that the islanders (I speak of the Hydriotes,
Spezziotes, &c.) seeing new no hopes of the suc-
cess of a general revolution, cannot expect the
formation of a public treasury, out of which it
might be expected to receive indemnification for
individual losses ; and as their fleet is composed
of private property, and as they enjoyed conside-
rable freedom before the war, each of them wi!l
probably make the best terms for themselves: Tri-
polliza, the capital of the Morea, is again said to
be taken, hut the same report has already
,been
circulated 50 times. Ali Mistrial vessel arrived
here yesterday from the island of Cyprus, where it
seems the Turks are putting to the sword all the
Greeks that fall into their hands."

UPPF;R AND LOWER CANADA.

[From the " Qiiebee Glizettei,!' from Sept 6 to Sept 20.]
MONTREAL,. SEPT. 8.--We are informed that the ;upper
part of the La Chine Canal-is to be dug:through a bed of rock,
which it is not practicable to mine ; but.through which the ex-
cavation is fo be made by Picking., a tedious process : the rock,
is of a bluish east. Wrare told,' that about twenty Irishmen
came down from La Chine CanA,"On" Which they are labourers,
and challenged near the windmills, any Canadian to come .for-
mud, and fight:With their'ehampion, or champions. The Ca--
radians accepted the-challenge, and procnied periona to_ enter
the ring ; but individual combat Was.socin entirely relinquished,.
as the spectators of each party soon joined.- battle in defence
of their friends,' and National honour.; the fighting was in-
discriminate; but here,. the Irish portion conquered, bring
more ,numerous, and combating With clubs : they, followed
the Canadians towards the town.. where in some instances they
attacked inoffensive ,mon.---At. the loiyer corner of ilcLiill,
! street, the rout for a time subsided.—About four o'clock we saw
collected at the above-mentioned point, about 200 Canadians ;
for some time we did not perceive. any Irishmen ; . but at about'
hilf-past four, the whole body of Canadians made an attack
on, (we should suppose) eight or ten Irishmen ; and so eager
were they to revenge their defeated countrymen, that they be-
hayed in a most brutal-manner in one partiular instance, we
perceived an old man attacked by five or six Canadians; who
having throWn him stunned upon the-groUnd, 'bestowed kicks '
and blows upon him in a perfectly lifeless condition ; a great
crowd of spectators were collected from all parts of the town,
and the expressions of disgust at this.shameful sight were
'general. •

MONTREAL, ST.PT. 11, 1821.—THE `VtATrtER•—On
Sunday we had a heavy shower of rain with thunder and light-
ning; yesterdays return .of temperate and pleasant weather was
experieneed.---It has -been predicted by those who. pretend to
wisdom in these affairs, that we are to be visited with'a dry
autumn. A letter from l'Assomption mentions that, 'at about
three o'clock in the afternoon- of- last Sunday, there was ex-
perienced in that place a Hurricane, by which three houses and
13 barns and out-housei were dismantled ; but no lives lost,.
although the families were within when the .roofsof the dwellings
were torn off. On Sunday last about two o'clock in the afterL
'noon, the Steam-boat Caledonia, then in the Lake St. Peter,
going before the,wind at
,the rate of nine knots, On her Way
from Quebec to this city, was suddenly taken aback and her
sails split into tatters.—ln a;second gust, the mate, Joseph Pet-
titcicir, endeavouring .to bend a new sail,-(the wind having
again shifted aft,) was blown on the deck and thence overboard,
narroirly excaping the wheel. The boat going with great ve-
locity,he was in an instant left far astern,. tossing in high sea,
amidst heavy rain,': thunder and lightning ; but an oar having
been thrown to him, and every means of safety promptly resort-
ed to, he was taken up'by the jolly-boat, after having been'a
quarter of an hour in the water. . • -

Independent Goveinment for that Province.—
They were opposed by the inhabitants, who were
