LONDON,
FRIDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 14, 1827.

The Paris Papers of Tuesday, and the Gazette
de France of Wednesday, have been received.
The charge which had been made some time ago
by the Greek chiefs against Colonel FABVIER,
of. his having been, instrumental in causing the
surrender of the Acropolis, is again repeated, by
the indignant men who had so long and so
heroically defended the fortress, and who now
appeal to the Greek Government that both
FABVIER and theMselves may be put on their
trial touching the matter. If FABVIER be
nocent, he must anxiously desire an opportunity
of clearing his character from so disgraceful an
imputation. But we suspect very much that not
only he, but the Austrians, and Admiral de
HIGNY, have all been participators in the con-
spiracy
which delivered the Acropolis into the
hands of the Turks. From the whole policy of
Austria, during the progress of the war, it is
manifest how much she feels interested in the
success of the Turks ; and should the three
great powers find it necessary to use forcible
means in carrying the convention respecting the
) effect, it will soon IfiTitar
what side Austria favours.

The news from Spain is only varied by the
.excess of insolence exercised by the Rebels, con-
trasted with the imbecility of the Government.
The Gazette de France, in remarking upon the
. difficulties which prevented the settlement of the
affairs of the East, observes that difficulties of
equal magnitude interposed in the aflitirs of Por-
tugal, but that now, in spite of all the sinister
predictions to the contrary, the Regency (21
Don ithouEr, is a settled point. If this be so,
there has been A great deal of money and some
blood spent on both sides to no purpose, when
the affair might have been quietly settled at first
by allowing Don MIGUEL the full scope of his
free will, which cannot have been much improved
by the imperial curb set on his bull-baiting pro-
pensities
at Vienna. The tiger may be caged,
but his natural ferocity is not thereby tamed—it
only derives a keener impulse when he next riots

at liberty.
The blockade of Algiers by the French squa-
dron is a mere mockery. The Corsairs come
out in divisions, as if there were no vessels to
watch them, and they commit the same depreda-
tions on French commerce as before the blockade
was talked of. If this be allowed to continue,
the next time the French boast of blockading
Algiers, they will be met not only by insult from
the DEY, but ridicule from other nations. They
should either not boast' at all, if they do not
intend to carry their threats into execution, or
quietly put up with the insolence of his Illus-
trious Highness.
Extracts will be found in another column.

The Allgemeine Zeitung of the 7th inst. says,
that Lord COCHRANE has.gained some new ad-
vantages over the Turks, but adds that the ac-
counts want confirmation. We have no doubt
that if the Greek sailors would cheerfully serve
his Lordship, they would soon find their obedi-
ence amply repaid by the capture of the enemy's
vessels. Lord COCHRANE has not yet had a
naval force to work with, and people
do not
know how much his daring enterprise has been
cramped by the lukewarmness or jealousy of pro-
fessed friends, but secret enemies
Taiasm, Auc. 20.—Accounts brought by ships from
Zante mention new advantages gained by Lord Cochrane
over the Turks ; but they seem to stand much in need of
confirmation. Piracy in the Greek and lonian seas in-
creases in such a frightful manner, that many merchants'
letters express the doubtless ill-founded suspicion that there
is some connivance on the part of many captains of ships
of a great maritime power.
AUGSBUitO, Sarr. 6.—The Austrian Observer con-
tains the following from Constantinople, of Aug. 10 :
The new barracks at Dand Pacha were opened on the
2d, 6,000 of the new troops, under Chosrew Pacha, were
drawn up in the great plain before them. All the Minis-
ters and great men were present. About noon the Grand
Vizir came, and soon after the Sultan himself, in a Ca-
lloners uniform. After viewing the troops, the Sultan
role to the chief entrance to the barracks, where the usual

ceremony of consecration was performed by the "(mans.
The Sultan then gave the keys to the Bombaschi (colonel)
in command, after which the troops were exercised in
firing, and the whole ended with an entertainment. 1,500
men are now quartered in the barracks, which will hold
6,000. The building of the other barracks, and the re-
pair of the batteries on the Bosphorus, is pushed with great
activity. The change in the corps of the Tepschis, by as-
similating them to the other troops, has been carried into
effect. They formerly exercised different professions, and
many of them were boatmen : this is now forbidden, and
all the Topschis must either submit to the discipline of the
barracks or leave the corps. New uniforms are ordered
for them. Accounts from Adrianople say, that in the
latter half of July a considerable part of that city, and
especially the bazaar, was burnt down.

By the arrival of the Slanmer packet we have
received Lisbon Gazettes to the Sd instant, but
they contain nothing of interest. The Princess
REGENT had returned to the Palace of Ajuda,
and busied herself by issuing decrees in vindica-
tion of her power, which she thought the people
had treated with disrespect. The lady seems,
like most others, to be very jealous of her pre-
rogatives, and rather than be supposed to slumber
in the due exercise of her privilege, tries to con-
vince people of the contrary in rendering herse
ridiculous by overstepping decorum and justice
at the same time. The recent acts of the REGENT
go far to confirm the opinion of those who, from the
first, considered Her Royal Highness unfit to
fill the high office to which she had been
called. The affairs of Portugal were far too mo-
mentous to be entrusted to the hands of a weak
woman. They required the commanding in-
fluence and firm superintendence of a controuling
mind—and such they are not likely to receive
until Don PEDRO interposes his conclusive
authority. The mental disposition of both Spain
and Portugal seems to be divided between
priestcraft on the one hand, and indolence on the
other. It wants energy to be great—and a
mighty impulse to set it in motion.
