.1u the justice of such resistance. The grena-
diers of this regiment sallied out of their bar-
racks—drums beating—colours flying—and when
they saw a body of troops destined to attackthern,
the/ formed ahollow square, and actually became
the assailants. Succumbing to numbers,their resist-
:we has been crushed—whether the spirit by which
resistance was excited has been extinguished, time
alone can skew. As yet but one side only has been
heard—and that CONSTANTINE should, under the
decisive ascendancy of the party of the EMPRESS
mother* have the power of addressing the European
Pn bile, were beyond all present hope. A mili-
tary revolt, in which a popular and distinguished
General lost his life, and two Officers of equal
rank were wounded, cannot but he viewed as an
alarming indication of the feeling of the Russian
soldiers. It yet remains to be seen, with
what temper these events will be received by the
army on the Pruth. The presumption of the corn-
piler of the A linanack in announcing the Grand
Duke Ntcllowis as heir of the throne of Russia,
may perhaps, he overlooked without the threaten-
ed visitation—it will not now be suspected that
the insertion was made without authority.

A Hamburg!) Mail arrived this morning, by
which we have received advices from St. Peters-
burgh. The following are extracts :

HAMIItYROIL, JAN. 4.

An express that arrived at one o'clock this morning from
Berlin, was followed by many others to mercantile houses, and
some to foreign diplomatic agents, which bring the highly im-
portant news from St. Petersburgh, that after the uncertainty
respecting the acceptance of the Imperial dignity by his Ma-
jesty, the Emperor Constantine had kept every thing in sus-
pense for several days; at length on that day the final act of
renunciation in favour of the Grand Duke Nicholas had been
received, who was thereupon proclaimed Emperor, as successor
ts) his Majesty. The brotherly love and esteem of the two
brothers has b‘ien shewn in the highest light, anti it is only
alter the most positive declaration of the next heir to the
.throne, that his present Majesty was induced to accept the lin.
perial Crown.

ST. PETERSDUROII, DEC. 24.

The Gazate of the Senate, of this date, contains nothing re-
specting the death of the Emperor Alexander, or of the succes-

of nearly 25 years duration, the following acquisitions of terri-
tory were made by the Russian Empire, either by treaty or con-
quest :—I. The province liyalistock. 2. The Grand Duchy of
Finland. 3. Bessarabia. 4. The Persian provinces to the
ArAxis and the Kur. 5. The kingdom of Poland.

Accounts from the 11a.guc, of the ilth, affirm that the Prince

The JourtiA of Liege, contains the following important
article

" The Government is going to publish all the Papers relstive
to the negotiations with the. Pope I the exorbitant pretensions
of Ultremontanisni will be seen in them : the demand to place
in the hands of the priests all the registers of births, &c. is not
that which will the least astonish the r ceder. —(llrussell Palm- I,
Pecomber 1.)

The Allwemeine Zeitung of the 6th, contains
the following communication from Constanti-
nople, under the date of 10th December :
It is generally affirmed here that the Captain Pacha has
landed a part of the expedition from Alexandria, at Misr-
longhi, and !bat the bulwark of the Greeks will speedily sur.
render. The same is expected of Napoli de Romania. But,
notwithstanding the unfavourable turn. of the campaign for the
Greeks, the Porte has adopted a measure which causes a
peat sensation, and confirms the report which has been
in circulation for the last two months, that Ibrahim had
long ago been advised by the Porte to negociate with the
Greeks, in order to avoid a catastrophe fatal to the whole
Ottoman Empire. The notorious Husseim Bey, formerly
Director of the Arsenal, and Nedjeb Effendi, agent of
the Viceroy of Egypt, were unexpectedly summoned before the
Divan, and sent to the More,a on a mission, the object of which
is said to be to obtain the submission of the Greeks by nego-
tiation. •Opinions differ respecting the cause of this conduct of
.the Porte, but every body is convinced that it would not adopt
such a measure except in a case of extremity. Many persons
think that it is owin to more energetic language held by the
European
The insurrection in Condit), though not suppressed,
can hardly be the cause, as the Porte has hitherto paid little at.
tendon to such partial insurrection.—(.4llgenieine Zeitung,

A Jamaica Mail arrived in town this morning,
bringing Journals to the 28th November. The
GOVICINOII, opened the Seisions on the Ist, with
a Speech, of which the following is an abstract :

‘,` I. ant happy to meet you at the usual season of the year,
auil to offer you my sincere congratulations on the undisturbed
tranquillity which the Colony at present enjoys. The measures
which have been adopted in the Imperial Parliament, by which
the interests of the West India Colonies have been so liberally
consulted. The ports have been opened to foreign ships ;
their trade open to foreign countries duties lowered ; large fees
which have been levied in the Colonial ports are either modified
or altogether abolished. There is no Colony which will be
more essentially benefited by these arrangements than Jamaica,
Two years have now elapsed since 1 was instructed to submit
to you certain propositions for improving the condition of the
Slave population,, which in almost every instance had been sup-
Rested to his Majesty's Government at the- commencement of
the last Session. I renewed my representations to you on this
subject; no period can be more propitious fora calm considers-
. Lion of what may be practicable for the further protection of the
Persons ; the security of the interests which the laws have
• Pieced under your immediate controul than the present—the
Colony enjoying perfect repose."
