" The absence of the .Emperor has exceeited
ten months. The navigation, is very brisk ; the
importation is very extensive ; the exportation
hi proportion limited; which causes the course of
exchange to fall."--(llanzburgh.Papers,,iune26.)

It is reported, on the authority of letters from
Zante, of the 2d ult. that the Greek cruisers have
manifested a very hostile disposition to the Bri-
tish ; and that one of their larger vessels had even
the audacity to lire into his Majesty's ship Re.-
' twhitionnaire, Ilon.captain PELLF.w, killing four,
and wounding several of her crew. After an un-
successful demand of reparation, Captain PEL-
LEW is said to have poured a broadside into the
Greek, which-Caused her immediate surrender.
We have strong doubts ()Nile truth of this story,
or rattle!' we are anxious to indulge. the hope
that it will turn out to be unfounded. It is
scarcely conceivable that the. Greeks, feeling the
advantages to be derived from their superiority
at sea, and aware of the Importance of conciliat-
ing rather than incensing the Christian Powers,
should be so insane as to provoke England to
make them feel the weight of her trident, and
effectually to crush their 'naval power in its in-
fancy.

It seems to be probable, notwithstanding the
preparations w hick have 'keen made, that the
Coronation will not take place.. On Saturday
an interesting conversation respecting the QUEEN'S
claim to participate in the royal honours of 'this
ceremony was elicited by a question put to the
Marquess of LONDONDER Y by Sir lIONALD
FEraiusoN.The Times, with its usual'candour
and fair dealing, has thought proper vsry grossly
to misrepresent what fell from the Noble Mar-
quess .on this occasion. Every gOod subject must
regret the frequent altercations respecting her.
MAJESTY which take place in public, -and must
unite in condemning those who seek to prolong
so unhappy a state of things by aggravating ob-
servations and mischievous misrepresentations on
either side of the distressing questions affecting
her Majesty with which the Country has been
so long agitated.. The Times has actively per-
, formed its part in feeding the malignant propen-
sities and passions of the enemies of his MAJESTY.
We do notakay but that some other Journals have
also betrayed au unmanly and rancorous feeling
toward the QUEEN. it would be well if all par-
ties would • view the unhappy separation and
situation of their MAJESTIES as a misfortune in
itself deeply to be deplored—as a misfortune, of
which much of the secret causes and history must
for ever remain unknown,—,and would exert
themselves to soothe and allay the irritable feel-
ings to which that misfortune has. given rise, ra-
ther than to widen a breach, already, we fear, too
wide to admit of ever being closed.—The Times,
indulging, as usual, 'its favourite disposition to
poison the minds and to excite the most furious
.passions of its Readers, has thought proper so to
misrepresent and perplex the plain, simple, in-
telligible, and just observations of the Marquess
of LONDONDERRY respecting the QUEEN'S claim,
as to hold his Lordship- up to the Country in a
light which would be disgraceful to the merest
pettifogger
.who makes quibbling his profession..
The statement of his Lordship amounted to
this :—that, in his opinion, the CoronatiOn of 4
Queen Consort is a matter, not of legal right,
the demand of which her MAJESTY could le-
gally enforce, but of grace and favour, .which
the Sovereign could either withhold or bestow,
according to his Royal will and pleasure ;—that
such being hisopinion; When he was required
to advise the Sovereign as to. -whether- the

honours of a Coronation Aould or should
not he granted to her MAJESTY as a mat-
ter of grace and favour, he had advised that

they should not be granted ;—but that, her MA-
J ESTY having lately. made a demand to partici-
pate in those honours, with her Royal Consort,
on the ground that she had a legal right to such
participation, he (the Marquess of LONDON
D ERRY) had not presmued to resist that demand.
so advanced, on the ground of its alleged legality;
but that the legal question 'had been referred to
the Law Officers of the Crown, and remained
under their legal investigation.—No expla-
nation, surely, could be more fair,
.more
,irank, more full and satisfactory than this.
—.L'iro man, surely, can expect, whatever may be
his set,,:ments respecting the Qur.r.N, that in the
present sittiation in which she stands with respect
to his MAJEs'i-Y—a situation little short of open
hostility—his JESTY should voluntarily choose
to join her with hklself in the solemnities of-the
Corouatien. No man, on the other hand, will
for a moment believe, jf the questiOn of legal
right be-- decided in her IMAJEsfy's favour, that
,his MAJESTY or hi! Advisers will hesitate for a
moment as to whether they .should or should not
resist her MAJESTY'S lawful claim. That his
MAJESTY, in such a case, may . decide against
havilig any Coronation at all, is vrnbable. That
there should be a decision against the admitted
right of the QUEEN, we will venture to say, is
impossible.
