INTERV/EW BETWEEN MR. O'CONNELL
An/ HLINT.-The following conversation is stated in
a private litter from London to have occurred between the
above gentlemen. When Mr. O'Connell had reached to
nearly the centre of the room in which the friends of the
Irish Charity School met on Wednesday last in London,
Mr. Hunt said, " I had the pleasure of being once intro-
duced to Mr. O'Connell, but recent events render a second
introduction necessary." By no means, said the Member
far Clare, stretching- nut his hand to Mr. Hunt. J accept
it cordially, was Hunt's reply. I take your's with equal
rordielity, echoed Mr. O'Connell. Thus it is the quarrels
of politicians are often like those of lovers, hastily engaged
in, but speedily settled. —Dublin Freeman's Journal.

VA LENCIENNES IN 1816.—We entered
Valenciennes by the Mons gate, and I was much amused
with the scene. The streets were crowded with English,
French, Orrrnans, Prussians, Russians, Flemings, and
Dutch, in every possible variety of costume. Some were
reading the journals on the Gramle Place, some canvassing
the affairs of Europe, and others listlessly watching the
passing scene. English equipages, English grooms lead-
ing English horses. English dogs, and English shops,
met the eyes at every tarn ; -indeed, the number
of English tradespeople was surprising ; almost every
ether shop exhibited an English name.—Yalenciennes in
18/I.—The following morning I left Valenciennes, and
five years elapsed before I again visited it. When I did,.,.
gond Heavens, what a change! It was like a body ft out
which the soul had departed. The buildings were the
same, Raul the beautiful spires still glittered in the sun, but
the vivifying principle was gone. Grass was growing in
the streets; half the shops were shut up, and mine host of
the Grand Canard, instead of asking three vaineas for a
bed, thanked me most humbly for three francs. Vivp in
Guerre!—United Service Journal.

When Mrs. Baddeley was once confined for
debt in Southampton-buildings, she sang so sweet, that
she sang herself out of her cage ; but her keeper soon felt
the fatal effects of the tyren's voice, and was immured
himself. Being asked by a fellow-prisoner in the King's
, Bench " what business he had there?"--" Faith," he re-
plied, " I have no business here, I ;awe here for pleasure."

LONDON,
_
THURSDAY EVENING, MARCH 5, 1829.

The great question as to whether seven millions
of Catholic subjects shall still continue to be ex-
cluded from the Legislature, comes on this night

in the House of Commons. That there will be an

angry factious opposition, got up to thwart it at
every stage of its diseussion, and that, as it draws
nearer to a consummation, this opposition will be
proportionately increased, we have no more doubt,

than that ideas are, still a desideratum with Lis
Grace of NEWCASTLE. Still, notwithstanding the
interested bigotry of the Orangemen, the question
will be triumphantly carded ; in the Lower House,
not even the magic eloquence of Colonel WiLsoN
will be able to arrest its progress ; and in the Lords
it will pass with a majority, quite sufficient to con-
vince Lord ELDON that the " sun of Great Britain
has set." But suppose for an instant that it should
be otherwise, what we would respectfully ask the
13tunswicliers, would become of the country with a
divided Government and an immense and rapidly in-
creasing discontented Catholic population ? Do they
conceive, the egrezious logicians ! that under
such a state of things, the power of England
would stiil continue dominant on the Continent—that
'hat Briareus, the Catholic Association, would not
uplift its hundred bands in indignant invocations for
rf,dreac—or that the rent f; OM Ainerica would

on the principle of exclusion, and unsupported by
PEEL or WELLINGTON. There is, therefore, no help
for it ; the Catholic Bill must pass, and Orange
Ascendancy find its fitting level.

By official accounts from Bucharest, we learn
that, on the 11th of February, the fortress of Tourno
capitulated ; ACHMET SELIM, the Governor, deliver-
ed the keys to Count LANGERON

BUCHAIUST, FRB. J.

(OFFICIAL BULLETIN.)

We have this moment received the news of the surrender
of the fortress of Tournoul (or Tour*, which capitulated
the day before 3 elterday. Achmet Selim, the Governor,
has delivered the keys to Count Langeron. This General
has in less than three weeks caused one fortress (Kale) to
be taken by storm, compelled another (Tournoul) to capi-
tulate, taken ninety-eight cannon and eight pair of colours,
and killed or taken 3,500 Turks.

Though the ground is covered with anew a foot deep,
and the toil has been constantly at five, ten, and twelve
degrees. the Russian troops which lay in the bivouac with
their officers have triumphed by their zealous perseverance
over the inclemency of the season, as thcie bayonets have
uyercorne the Turkish sabres.

VIENNA, FEB. 22

The Presitb-nt of Greece returned from Pow* to Egina
on the 20th Dece.rnb.ar, after the departure of the three
Ambassadors. The Greek Bee, of the 20th and 23d De-
cember, says that the Turks bad left Karpenizzi on the sth
December, and returned towards Mess/ly, and had been
follows/1 part of the way by the: Chiliarchs, Strato Rango
and Teavelie, and General Densel. According to the
Greek Bee, the tireeLs had occupied the Thermopylx.

By advices from Constantinople to the 26th of
January; we learn, that the Greeks under YPSILANTI
are making rapid advances towards Thermopylae,
where they intend to fix themselves, in order that,
when the quest;on of fiontier comes to be decided,
it may be possible for the Fren4 Ministry to induce
the Allies to give them a greater extent •

CONSTANTINOPLE, JAN. 26.

The accounts from Greece are of a nature to excite seri-
ous attention. The Greeks under Ypsilanti are making
considerable przgress; they are advancing along the coast,
by way of Talauda towards the Thermopylae, where they
went to intend to fix themselves. This enterprise is said
to have been undertaken by the advice of French agents,
in order that when the question of the frontiers of Greece
comes to be decided, it may he possible for the French
11$ inistry to induct the Allio to give thew a greater extent.

We learn from the Courier de Slityrne of the Mb
of January, that Count GUILLEMINOT, the French
Ambassador, has solicited, and obtained, of the Pre-
sident of Greece, the liberty of ull the Mussulman
prisoners, who will be restored, without any excep-
tion, to their country and their families:—

FRANKFORT, FEB. 27.

The Courier de Smayrne of 18th January says, that
the French Arnbassatha, Count Guilleminot, after having
terminated his business in Greece, solicited and obtained
of the President of Greece the liberty of all the Mussultnan
prisoners. All will be restored to their country and their fa-
milies without any exception, and will have the more reason to
bless the hand that has delivered them, as they were treated
not like prisoners, but like slaves, in the strictest sense of
the word. Greece will long retain the momory of this
generous philanthropy towards unfortunate individuals who
were forgotten.

The Armida French frigate, Captain Hugon, has con-
veyed to Smyrna the Turkish slaves, about 150 in num •
her. Admiral de Rigny has had them given up to Hussein
Pasha.

(The Brussels Papers of the Ist, 2d, 3d, and 4th of
March, with extensive Supplements, are nearly filled with
the debates in the Second Chamber, on the report of the
Committee of Petition, on the 27th and 28th, and 241 and
3d of March. The debate was not concluded.)

The French Journals aro barren of any news of
moment. The only point worth a line is the start-
ling statement in the Gazette de France, that at
Lisbon, the head-quarters of that promising young
sprig of royalty, Don MIGUEL, whose mules have
been much to blame in not having more effectually
done him justice—that at this well-ordered capital
the greatest tranquillity preva;led.

with the Chancellor of the Exchequer yesterday, at the
Treasury.
Private letters from Frankfort of the 23d
February say, that the political horizon begins to darken,
and the preparations of Russia for a second campaign are
too far advanced to leave any doubt that it will open the
moment the season permits. It appears that the appre-
her:anal; of a rupture between the Cabinets of St. Peters-
burgh and that of St. Jaines'a, were not entirely without
some foundation. Private letters from the riorth speak
vaguely of some altercations between the English Ambas-
sador and M. riesselrode. They state from Bucharest
of the Sd February, that letters from Jassy bring accounts
of the death of :general Sacken, of the typhus.
