The King of SPAIN has also issued a pr' 'nation to the Catalonians, which will be fund
amongst our extracts. It is a more spirited pro-

and appears well calculated to dissipate the illu-
sions under which the rebels are said to be for the
re-establishment of order. His MAJESTY re-
quires, however, one condition, namely, that all the

'Amongst the reports in circulation at Frank-

t. are two which probably rest on no founda-
ton
though Diplomatic authority is attributed
°lle of them--that which relates to Mr.

STRATFORD CANNING. The first rumour
states that the Egyptian troops are preparing to
evacuate the Peloponnesus • and the second, that
the Porte, attributing to the British Ambassador
the instigation of the Treaty of Intervention, had
realized its menaces by arresting and confining
him in the Seven Towers, without resorting to
the same measure with the Ambassadors of the
other Powers.

We received this morning the Journal of St.
Pdersburgh to the 26th ult., which contains
more news from the army izl Georgia. It ap-
pears that a desperate battle took place be-

tween a division of the Russian army, which
advanced to the relief of the convent of
Etchmiadzine which was besieged by the Persian
army of 25,000 men, commanded by AnnAs
MIRZA. The Russians claim the victory, say-
ing that the enemy lost 3,000 men, while their
own loss was very severe. But we can hardly
credit the Russian account :
NEWS FROM GEORGIA.
ST. PETERSBURGH, SEPT. 24.

General Sipiaguine having joined the battering train on
the Bth (20th) August, at Djelal Oglou, sent parties of Cos-
sacks towards Gliouinri, Amamli, and Karaklissi, to cover
the passage of their artillery by the Bezobdal. On the
12th (24th) the park was beyond that chain of mountains.
On approaching Soudaghent, General Sipiagnine was
informed that the enemy, to the number of four or
five thousand men, including both cavalry and infantry,
occupied the road, and advanced in consequence with his
cavalry, after placing his infantry in an advantageous po-
sition. Their numerous troops of horse attacked the in-
fantry, but the fire of our artillery soon dispersed them, and
though they several times returned to the charge, they had
no more success. General Sipiaguine afterwards reached
without obstacle the camp of Lieutenant-General Kras-
sovsky.
On retreating from Soudaghent, the enemy in consider-
able force (4,000 men) having stopped between Mount
Alaghez and the camp of Djanghili, Lieutenant-General
Krassovsky passed the Abarane with two battalions of in-
fantry, SOO Cossacks, and two pieces of cannon, and went
to attack them in the advantageous position which they
occupied near the mountains. The enemy stood firm
against the Cossacks till they perceived the infantry, but
as soon as the latter appeared they took flight, and were
pursued by the Cossacks and the Tartar cavalry of Bast-
chali, which General Sipiaguine had brought with him.
The detachment returned to the camp in the evening.
Lieutenant-General Krassovsky was informed that the
enemy were besieging the convent of EtchmiadZine, and
that the place began to be much incommoded by the bat-
teries that had been erected against it. This news was con-
firmed by a brisk cannonade, which was heard in the morn-
ing of the 16th (28th). In the evening of the same day
the General left his camp at Djanghili, with four battalions
of infantry, 500 Cossacks, and 12 pieces of cannon, and on
the 17th (29th) arriving on the eminences between Asch-
tarak and Outurane, he discovered the Persian army, con-
sisting of above 10,000 infantry, and 15,000 cavalry, un-
der the soramand of Abbas Mirza, which occupied both
banks of the Abarane.

Their principal battery commanded the road to Etch-
miadzine, which is lined at this part with blocks of stone
and steep rocks. Their infantry formed in three lines, had
its left supported by the Abarane, and cut the road itself
with its right wing. Their cavalry, in large masses, occu-
pied the neighbouring heights.
Though Lieut.-General Krassovsky was fully sensible of
the difficulty of forming a passage by this road with 3,000
men only, yet fearing to lose Etchmiadzine, he nevertheless
resolved to advance. The rapid movement of our columns,
supported by the artillery, broke the enemy, who aban-
doned the road with considerable lose. Notwithstanding
the well supported fire of his batteries, our troops and their
train of equipages, protected by our artillery, happily
reached the position which the Persians had just quitted ;
but the rapid declivities of a road strewed with rocks, and
the accidents that occurred among the waggons of the con-
voy, impeded their march.
At this moment the enemy attacked us on all sides, and
their 22 cannon battery did much dentate to the
equipages : considerable bodies of infantry and cavalry
charged us with impetuosity, but were always repulsed at
the point of the bayonet, and our artillery, ably directed,
did them considerable injury.
This very sanguinary battle continued Irons seven in the
morning till four in the afternoon.
At two wersts before Etchmiadzine the Persians were
again repulsed at all points, by the unshaken valour of the
officers and men, though exhausted and fatigued by the ex..
cessive heat, and the total want of water from the camp to
the Monastery, and an incessant combat with an enemy
ten times more numerous.

The ravage which our artillery made in the ranks of
Abbas Mirza is enormous : in many places the ground was
covered with the enemy's dead, up to the mouths of our
cannon. Lieutenant-General Krassovsky was always so
close to the Persian masses, that towards the end of the
battle, he had not a single charge of grape shot to fire
at them.

The loss of tl: enemy amounts to three thousand men
killed and wounded ; but ours is also severe.
We have to regret the death of two most brave and dis-

tinguished superior officers : Lieutenant-Colonel Goinvixle,
of the Crimea regiment of infantry, and Major Beloser, of
the Sebastopol regiment of infantry ; of four inferior offi-
cers, and 0f679 subalterns and privates killed in the action.
Lieutenant-Colonel Schourosky, commanding the 40th re-
giment of Chasseurs, three superior officers, thirteen su—
balterns, and 318 privates were wounded ; lastly 134 men
are missing. Lieut.-General KTsovsky himself received a
severe contusion in the arm, which materially damaged the
bone.
The General highly commends the conduct of Colonel
Gullensmidt, who commanded the artillery on that day.--
On entering Etchmiadzine, Lieut.-General Krassovsky
learnt that the besergers had removed their batteries during
the night, and joined the main body of the Persian army,
and that the garrison of the place had repulsed with the
greatest courage all the attacks of the enemy, who had
suffered considerable loss.
The number of ships arrived at Cronstadt, to Sept. 23,
Ras 1085. Sailed 953. At Riga, to Sept. 15, arrived
1,211, sailed 1,128.

It will be observed by the notice issued by
M. Ito
-CAFUERTE, the Mexican Charge
d'Affaires in this country, that the Mexican Go-
vernment have
,000 dollars, in payment of the last
to ship for this
500
country taken measures'

otl their Bonds, and that this re-
mittance may be
British ship of War,
expected in a few weeks by a
for wl ich application has
been made to the
Commander-in-Chief of his
MAJESTY'S ships at Jamaica. We rejoice at
this intelligence, not more for the sake of those
who have invested their property in these Se-
curities, than for the credit and honour of the
Government of Mexico. We cannot, however,
but still think that that Government did not
evince the an.:iety for the due fulfilment of its
obligations, which it ought to have done both
from principle and policy, and that South
American credit will not speedily recover from
the effects of the shock it received by the recent
failure of the punctual payment of the Dividends
of that State, which enjoyed the greatest con-
fidence in the money markets of Europe. All
the new states would have best promoted their
interests by fulfilling their engagements for the
payment of the interest of the Loans they had
raised in this country by
anv sacrifice, however
great, in any other respects. Their very existence
as States was dependent on their credit, and

every thing else should have been hazarded to
establish that first of requisites.
Since writing the above, we are authorised to
state, in contradiction to letters from Mexico,
which appeared in most of the Papers of this
morning, that any proposals for a loan of money
to the Mexicali Government, in which the names
of Messrs. BARING, BROTHERS, & Co., may
have been made use of, were entirely unautho-
rized by that firm.

The Frankfort Journal, received this morn-
ing, contains the following article against the
Greeks : •

SMYRNA, ♦UG. 31.

(EXTRACT FROM A PRIVATE LITTER.)
Since the treaty of the Gth July has been known in the
East, the Greeks and Franks indulge in endless conjectures
respecting its result. Some already see Greece, in the
number of the independent States of Europe, they fancy
they see the empire of Constantine rising from its ashes ;
others dream of a republic, the dictator of which they de-
signate before hand. But need we be astonished that
here, in the East, the land of the most ingenious of fa-
bles, conjectures at least should be made on so marvellous
a phenomenon as the union of the flags of France, Eng-
land, and Russia, to conquer the liberty of Greece. It
must not be supposed, however, that this error, excusable
as it is, is general. All those persons who have any con-
nection with the European Consuls, or the Officers of the
several squadrons—all those who are able to appreciate
the diverse and very opposite interests of the powers
who have signed the treaty—those, lastly, who know
the real situation of the Greeks, and who are not
blind to the strength and resources of the Ottoman
power, do net participate in the illusions which the treaty
of the title July has excited in some minds. Where, besides,
are the land armies commissioned to conquer Turkey for
the benefit of the Greeks ? Supposing the possibility of
the union and co-operation of the naval forces of the three
Powers—supposing these united forces to attack, and re-
duce Constantinople, with what troops would that great
city be occupied? We have not heard that land forces
have been sent to M. de Rigny, or to Commodore lama-
ton. But let us see what are the means of defence against
so improbable au attack—let us examine, above all things,
the military force of the Greeks, for to them alone is left
the care of seconding by land the efforts of the combined
fleets, if indeed they should make any attempts.
While the journals of Edrope represented Turkey as
reduced to the last gasp, we were here witnesses of the
slow, indeed, but complete fall of Ispara, Candia, Na-
varino, of almost the whole of the Mores, of Misso-
longhi, and, lastly, of the Acropolis of Athens : during
this time military discipline was being introduced into
Egypt, and in the whole Ottoman empire, while the
Greeks, on the contrary, repelled all attempts that were
made to form them to European tactics, without which
no victory is now possible.

At the moment I am speakinc, to you, the Greeks have
not 2,000 regular troops, and they are entirely destitute of
cavalry and artillery.

The Greeks have suffered themselves to be intoxicated
by the brilliant successes which they obtained during the
first two years of their insurrection against the Porte: they
did not know how to profit by their victory,—perhaps
they abused it. But their greatest fault was their be•
lieving themselves to be impregnable in their Penin-
sula of the Peloponnesus,—not reflecting that this centre
of their insurrection then had before it as a fortified out-
post, the empire which the formidable Ali Pacha, of Ja-
nina, had raised. Bnt soon this bulwark was overthrown.
Ali Pacha was killed, and neither the cause nor the conse-
quences of his fall were perceived. The warlike Suliots
were soon afterwards driven from their rocks; the Greeks
had been guilty of the imprudence of placing at the head of
their troops one of the brothers of Ypsilanti; from that
moment England and Austria took the Ottoman Empire
under their protection, and Russia itself gave it pledges of
security ; a distinguished English character went to St.
Petersburgh, and the reconciliation of the two Empires
soon took place; the treaty of Akermann was signed, or
rather it sanctioned that of Bucharest.

While these accounts were being accomplished, at the
time when M. de Ribeaupierre was receiving so distin-
guished a welcome, when the Sultan was ridding himself
of his Jasissaries, at the moment, in short, when the
Greeks were torn by intestine dissentions, it was then, I
say, that your journals in Europe, and above all in France,
more loudly proclaimed the independence of Greece, Alas
of all their ancient institutions, these unhappy Greeks have
retained only the Ostracism, which all their Chiefs in their
turn have felt in all its rigour.

I confess, however, that credulous people may have been
latterly led astray by the promises which the treaty of the
6th of July seemed to contain; but they do not consider
that the Cabinet which has stopped the Russians on the
Pruth, and raised up a war against them en the Araxes,
is the same which now pretends to re-establish the peace in
the East, with the aid of a few men of sv:ir only.
In another letter I shall explain to you why Turkey does
not push the war with all the vigour of which it is capable,
and why it makes so obstinate a resistance to the Ambas-
sadors of the Powers who are parties to the treaty.
THE HAGUE, OCT. 9.—According to accounts from
Java, brought by his Majesty's ship the Zealander, two
distinguished Chiefs of the insurgents, the Pongerangs
Notto Prodjo and Serang, besides eight Tommougongs, had
submitted to the Netherlands Government, which it was
hoped would have a favourable effect on the minds of the
insurgents ; otherwise nothing of importance had occurred.

One of the Jamaica papers notices another
infringement of the Orders in Council by Ame-
rican vessels. A ship direct from New York
had arrived off Cornwall, bound to Montego
Bay for orders, where, it appears, she procured
a supply of water. From some misunderstand-
ing relative to a market she proceeded next day
to St. Thomas's. This communication of
American vessels with the ports of a British
island, in defiance of the Order in Council, is
rather more than would be permitted to British
vessels on the American coast ; for by their Act
concerning navigation, which came into force on
the Ist July, it is enacted that " every such ves-
sel so excluded from the ports of the United
States, that may enter, or attempt even to enter,
in violation of this Act, shall, with the tackle,
apparel, and furniture, together with the cargo
on board such vessel, be forfeited to the 'United
States." With these facts staring us in the
face, some remedy for the infringement of our
Orders in Council would be well worth the at-
tention of Mr. HusicissdN.

We are authorised to state, that the Charge
d'Affaires from.the United States of Mexico has received
official notice from his Government, under dale the 16th
August, that application had been made through the Mi-
nister of his Britannic Majesty, for a British vessel of war,
to receive on board 500,000 dollars, destined for the pay-
ment of the Interest due on the Loans negociated by Mexico
in this country.
A circumstance of a somewhat ludicrous na-
ture occurred in one of the churches of this city (Glasgow)
a few Sabbaths ago. A card, requesting the prayers of
the congregation for the unhappy individual now confined
in gaol under sentence of death, and addressed to the offi
put into the hands of the precentor,
the sagacious conductor of the praises

instead of troublin3- himself to look
intooarf teehdee°fonrg interiorrdeog iti:tgio°Bfno'; .the
card, bawled out in a tone of voice
indicative of his own personal conviction that all was right,
the address upon the back, preceding it with the usual re-
inembrancer. The ears of the audience were saluted with
" Remember in prayer the Rev. ,—," and it
was some time before they recovered from their astonish-
ment. The Reverend Gentleman was greatly nonplussed,
and did not seem at all to relish the idea of putting 111)
prayers so very publicly in his own behalf.— Glasgow

THE FUNDS-(THIS DAY).

CITY, TirELvE o'CLocr.

The British Stock Market remains in nearly a
calm, and no business can be reported of the least
importance. Consols opened at 87k, and have since
been alternately buyers and sellers; they are now
quoted at the former. There is no alteration in
Exchequer Bills, which continue at 61 2, and India
Bonds, 94 6 premium.
The only attention which has been paid to the
Foreign Funds has been again solely devoted to
Mexican Bonds, the fact of insurances having been
effected on specie yesterday caused them to rise to
.54, and this morning they opened at 541, and have
been in a constant state of agitation ever since;
from the above price they went up to 6, fell to
531, and have again gone up to 56 7. There are
still unbelievers that money will eventually arrive,
whilst the confidence of another party is unbounded ;
they say the remittance of half a million of dollars,
which is to arrive by the Aurora frigate, is the pro-
duce of the Custom-house duties at Vera Cruz, and
that no opportunity has existed since the sailing of
his Majesty's ship Britontart from thence to Tampico
to forward them; it is also added that the loan for
two millions of dollar's has actually been contracted
for since the disturbances at Vera Cruz have been
settled. It is fair, however, to state that the com-
munication made to the Bondholders of the expected
remittances of funds is vague, and bears no signature;
to this it is answered that M. Rocafuerte's indispo-
sition will account for this document not bearing his
signature. The heavy fluctuations in this stock has
occasioned fears of numerous failures, which has been
already verified by the announcement of one, but we
believe not of much importance.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAY.)

MANSION-HOUSE.

SHORT MEASURE OF COALS.—AIIen William Clifford
was brought before the LORD MAYOR by Mr. Bumsted, one
of the principal coal meters, under the following circum-
stances, of no small importance to the public at large:—
He stated that Clifford was stationed at Boy and Austin's
wharf, Wapping, on the sth of October instant, to measure
the coals that went from that. wharf ; that of six chaldrons
sold by Mr. Brown, of Mark-lane, to a house in the city,
meted by Clifford on the sth, and sent from Messrs. Boy
and Austin's wharf on the following morning, 13 sacks
were measured at the purchaser's house and found to be short
four bushels. The other part of the coals was shot into a
cellar, from which it was impossible to have it taken to
be re-measured. Clifford had been suspended by the prin-
cipal meters, and be was now brought before his Lordship
for his disposal of him.
Clifford said the fact was, that it was late in the night
on which the coals were loaded, and he having had some-
thing else to do, left them to be loaded without being mea-
sured at all.

The LORD MAYOR considered this no excuse whateveri;
it was impossible, in justice to the public, that a
Magistrate should pass over such a fraud. The public had
no protection, if such conduct on the part of a meter could be
allowed. Wherever a meter was found to connive in any
way whatever in such a fraud, he ought not to be suffered
to mete another bushel, and therefore his Lordship dismissed
him from his situation.
