Bahia, and from the general good feeling that
seemed to pervade all ranks there was no pro-
spect of any counter-revolution in the northern
provinces. The Provisional Government has
published the following document for the re-or-
ganization of the army :--
(OFFICIAL NOTICE.)

ccccBAHIA, MARCH 12.
It being considered a matter of much importance that the
troops should be re-organised, and that discipline should be
established among them, the Provisional Government of Bahia
thinks it right to institute a Military Commission from the pre-
!ient tune, which shall be occupied with the consideration of the
best measures which ought to be adopted for the preservation
4,),!' order and discipline of the several regiments, which measures,
akproved of by the Provisional Government, will be expedited
FY tile Secretary of War, in order that they may be earned into
I?lediate execution.
" The following•persons are to composa the Military Corn-
inission

" Field Marshal Luiz Paulino de Olivero Pinto da Franca,
President • Colonel Ignacio Luiz Nladerira de Mello, Captain
Tristiao Pio de Santos,- Colonel Banto da Franca Pinto da
Oliviera,Lieut. Colonel Manuel GOnsalvez, &c. &c."
[The Paper of the 10th-of March contains a long address
from Colonel Villas Boas, commanding the Regiments of Mili-
tia at Bahia and the neighbourhood, in which lie congratulates
the troops on the arrival of the long-wished for day of their re-
generation, but it is much too long for insertion.]

The most gratifying event of yesterday in the
Metropolis was the celebration of the Birth of
the illustrious WILLIAM PITT, and though we
have given a full and correct account of this
IVATIONAL FESTIVAL, as it may be styled, in our
preceding columns, we cannot deny ourselves a
brief expression of our own feelings on so pa-
triotic an occasion.--Mr. Goocx did ample jus-
tice to the Chair, by manly spirit and good hu-
mour. The LORD CHANCELLOR never appeared
to more advantage on any former occasion,
and More cannot be said in favour of so elo-
quent, so honourable, so learned, and so eminent
suPntporter of the glorious Constitution of the
Coury. The manner in which his admirable
sentiments were received, evinced that as they
Were the genuine dictates of his heart, they ex-
cited in the highest degree the sympathy as well
as the applause of the audience. If the feelings
and principles of the Meeting yesterday may be
deemed, as we earnestly hope that they may, the
test of the general opinions of the people at
large, what this venerable Head of the Law said
111 support of the PROTESTANT ASCENDANCY,
and of the whole of our Establishment in Church
and State, must remove all fear that they can
ever be shaken by the arts or violence of so-
Phistry and sedition.

The Russian Constilate yesterday made the fol-
io .•
vs' ing communication to the Master of I,LoYn's
"SIR—I be.g_to acquaint you, for the information of the
Committee at Lloyd's, that I have received official communica-
zpfrom my Government, stating,that the importation of
foreign liquors into the port of dessa is prohibited during
ne Present year."

By the Mail of yesterday we received accounts
from Constantinople to the 25th of April. The
„new VIZIER arrived there on the 21st, with
4°,000-troops, who were quartered on the Asiatic
side of the city. The very next day he ordered
The venerable Greek Patriarch, with four Bishops
4[4 three Priests, to be executed on the gallows.
The Patriarch and the. tishops were hanged be-
fore the door of the Greek Church, this form of
:Xecution being regarded in the most ignominious
Point of view.- Great apprehensions are enter-
tained that increased severitieswould follow, as,
athe Turkish populace were not restrained,
etteral massacre of the Greeks would follow%
