" D. JEWETT,
" Colonel of the Marine of the United Provinces of Sow]
Aillerica, Commander of the frigate Heroine."

The Paris Journals of Monday arrived this
morning, and contain several important articles
of intelligence.—Private advices from Vienna, of
the lOth of last month, mention, that an Express
had arrived from Petersburg with intelligence
that the Emperor ALEXANDER had sent a cate-
gorical answer to the complaints of the Ottoman
Porte against Baron de STROGONOFF, and had
demanded full satisfaction within eight days for
the insults offered to his Ambassador, to whom
orders were transmitted, desiring him to quit
Constantinople if this demand was not complied
with, and to state, at the same time, that the
Russian troops assembled on the Ruth would in
that ca'se immediately enter Moldavia. It is
doubtful whether the Grand Seignior possesses
sufficient influence over the fanatic people and
Jauissaries to be enabled to give this satisfac-
tion, and war therefore seems inevitable.

From Moldavia we learn that the Chief of the
Insurgents, FORDA EJ, has collected together about
5900 of the dispersed G reeks, and surprised a
party of Turks, many of whom were killed. A
detailed account is give►. of the defeat and death
of the Sacred Legion, which deserves a place in
the annals of History. When the Turks ad-
van►ced in groat force against this Legion, a ne-
phew of the Patriarch ORLGO3Y stepped for-

ward out of the ranks, and exhorted his compa-
nions to prove that they were not Neapo-

litans, that they fought in a holy cause,
and that they would maintain the honour of
Greece, and the glory of their ancestors. His
comrades replied with shouts of enthussm,,
rushed -upon the enemy, and, with very' few ex-
ceptions, perished nobly, in the glorious cause of
Grecian independence. It is stated in a German
Journal that Prince YPSILANTI is a prisoner in
the Austrian fortress of Carlsburg. Hence the
cause of the long silence respecting this Insurgent
Chieftain.

A private letter from Tunis, of the 24th
of June, says, that the Dey is fltting, out,
with great dispatch, several ships of war,. ha
order to co-operate with the Turks against the
Greeks in the Archipelago. The number of
Greeks at Tunis does not exceed four hundred,,
and it was hoped the sanguinary cruelties prac-
tised in Turkey would not extend to this town;
but, in consequence of the late events in the
Archiplago, the. local Government has shown a
hostile disposition towards the unfortunate
Greeks, and the populace of this country, al-
ways inclined to commit the greatest excesses
for the sake of booty, give us reason to appre"
bend a repetition of the dreadful scenes at Con-
stantinople and other Turkish towns. Several
Creeks have already been ill-treated and im-
prisoned by order of the Deg ; some of -
whom being under the protection of the
English and French Consuls, have been
demanded by them. These agents have
also interceded in behalf of other victims ;
but hitherto their efforts have not been attended
with much success, Their conduct on this ec'
casion is dictated not only by humanity but
likewise by the hope of preventing a catastrophe
which would be equally fatal, among these lia"
barians, to all descriptions of Christians; Oa
we expect much from their- prudent and firal
conduct.

An article from Hamburg!' states that the
British Ambassador at Constantinople has or 4
dered all the British Consuls in the Levant 10
to permit any Turkish subject to embark °l3
board an English ship without a regular passPerte
It gives us concern to relate that the Greek
refugees at Odessa have been guilty of the s°l9e
cruelties towards the Jews, in that town, °s
were practised by the Turks against their own
countrymen at Constantinople. Though the
Jews in the Turkish capital are reported, with
too much truth we apprehend, to have acted the'
parts of spies and informers to the Ottoman G°4
vernment against the unfortunate Greeks, yet it
by no means justifies the Greek refugees id
wreaking their vengeance upon the Jews at:
Odessa, who could not have influenced, or
ought not to have suffered for, the base conduct of
individuals belonging- to their nation at Ctin4
stantinople. Four of the Israelites at Odessa
have died from the effects of their cruel tre'LL-
meat, and several others are grievously wounded
The police succeeded with difficulty in rest°'°l
order, and several Greeks have been arrested asst
imprisoned, and we trust will meet their Just
punishment.
The demagogues of the Club held at the f°7l-
"
land d'Oro, in Madrid, have carried their dec-
trines to such an extreme, that the P°lltic
al
Chief of that capital has issued a notice threaten'
tug them with the severest punishntent of the
law ; and in order to curb their licentiousness,
and enforce his thr.eats, he has ordered ajnealber
of the 'Municipality to be present at all their d,;
bates.

ADDRESS from the COUNCIL and ASSEMBLY to lIIS

MAJESTY, dated 12th May, 1821; presented at the Levee

on the 25th July, 1821.
To iii 3 Most Excellent Majesty GEOUGE the FOURTH, by
the Grace of GOD of the United Kingdom of Great Britain
and Ireland King, Defender of the Faith, &c. &c. &c.
May it please your Majesty,

We, the Members of the Council and Assembly of your Ma-
jesty's Island of Dominic% humbly beg leave to approach your
Majesty's Throne with assurances of our most unfeigned
loyalty to your Majesty's Person, and of our ardent attach-
ment to the Constitution of Great Britain, our beloved and ve-
nerated Mother Country,
At any other moment we should, perhaps, have been content-
ed to suffer our opinions to be judged by our actions ; satisfied
of its bang apparent to every impartial observer, that amidst
the vicissitudes of prosperous and adverse fortune, which no
portion of your Majesty's widely extended domains has more
experienced than this unfortunate Colony, our warmest senti-
ments of loyalty and fidelity to our,King, and of affection to
our parent State, have ever remained inviolable and inflexible.
"But. when we perceive attempts to create disaffection to your
Majesty's wise and equitable Government, and to overturn that
inimitable fabric which has long been the just pride and boast
of our own Country, and the admiration of surrounding Nations,
w should deem ourselves unworthy of the name of Britons if
we did not uneqqivocally declare our abhorrence of such pro,
ceedings, and proclaim to the world our firm determination to
support and defend to our latest breath our King and Consti-
tution. That it 'may pleaq-e the Almighty Disposer of all
Events to bless your Majesty with a long and prosperous reign,
and to shower down on your Majesty every good winch can
render your life happy, is the sincere prayer of your Majesty's
loyal, faithful, and dutiful Subjects, the Council and Assembly
of the Island of Dominica.

OXFQ4D ELECTION.—Tha following notice has
been issued by Mr. HEBER'S Committee :

" An anonymous printed Paper having been circulated
among the non-resident Members of the University, insinuating
that Mr, lIEBER is favourable to Catholic Emancipation ; it

Yesterday the Duke and Duchess of CLA-
RENCE, 4ccornpanined by the reigning Duke of
SAXE MEININGEN, attended by his suite, went
to Kew, and in the evening returned to town.
A letter from Rio de Janeiro, of the 25th of
May, which is four (lays later than the packet,
was received yesterday, which states that advices
had arrived there from Chili, with information
that about 30 officers from the army of Gen. SAN
MARTIN had been brought to Valparaiso under
arrest, as it was supposed, for having formed a
conspiracy in Peru against the Commander-in-
Chief. This event, however, which would be a
fatal symptom to the prospects of the Chilien
army, requires confirmation.

Private letters from Constantinople give the
following details respecting the death of Prince
Moans', first dragoman to the PORTE:---The

baghi came to fetch Aloanst, pretending that a
person wished to speak. with him, The Prince
immediately quitted the room, and the Inter-
nuncio remained. Tired•of waiting for the dra-
goman,the Internuncio went out, and beheld the
body of Moltust lying on the ground near the
door, with the head severed from the body,
Lord SuFyiELD, we are concerned to state, de-

the Hon. E. ILt4unan.
