DUTCH PAPERS.

ROTTERDAM, OCT. 10.—In the Batavia Journal
of the 16th June, we find several reports of actions
that took place with the insurgents at the latter end
of April, and in the month of May, all of which ter-
minated to the advantage of our troops.
On the 27th of April, Colonel Lebron de Vexela
marched to Poeleenatte, in the district of Padjang,
and drove away the enemy, after a very WA= action.

LONDON,
TUESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 16, 1827.

We received last night the Paris Papers
of Saturday, and the Gazette de France dated
Sunday morning. They contain from Corfu the
report which was in circulation in London yes-
terday afternoon, that the first act of hostility
between the British squadron off' Navarino, and
a vessel belonging to the Egyptian fleet, had
taken place. It appears by these accounts that
Sir EDWARD CODRINGTON had summoned
IBRAHIM not to undertake at present any opera-
tions with the reinforcements received from
Egypt ; and it was probably with a view of as-
certaining whether the British Admiral would
actually proceed to hostilities, that a Tunisian
frigate was ordered to violate the blockade which
he was keeping of the Port. We have no doubt
that she paid dearly for her temerity. The die,
however, may now be considered as cast, and,
unless the Porte, at the very last moment, aban-
doned its determination, the next advices from
the Archipelago will probably contain accounts
of active measures of hostility being in full

operation.
The intelligence from Spain in these Papers
is, as usual, contradictory and uncertain. The
KING has issued
a decree, ordering the
Rebels to lay down their arms in twenty-
four hours, which some accounts state
to be the intention of the Insurgents, while
other accounts describe them as still resisting the
Royal authority even to the extent of penetrating
to the glacis of Barcelona, and rendering it neces-
sary on the part of the Authorities to call for the
aid of French troops, who subsequently remained
encamped outside the walls for the protection of
the City. A large body of Insurgents, near
Tarragona, had been cut to pieces by the King's
troops. The Quotidienne describes FERDINA ND
as a Hero ! His MAJESTY is said to have
placed hirnself at the head of a battalion at the

famous pass Col de Balaguer, which was occu-
pied by the Rebels, and charging them. with
vigour dispersed them in all directions. This is
a new character for his MAJESTY to appear in,
and we hope he may at last have found a proper
field for the display of his genius. We have
given copious extracts from these papers in another
column.

Hamburgh Papers of the 10th inst. also
reached us last night. They mention the return
to that city of Mr. JACOB, from his journey
into Denmark, Mecklenburgh, &c. for the pur-
pose of collecting additional information upon
the subject of the growth and exportation of corn.
He visits Hanover before he returns to this
country. These papers contain no other news.

The St. Petersburgh Journal of the 29th
Sept. likewise came to hand, together with Dutch
Papers to the 14th inst. The latter contain in-
telligence from Batavia to the 16th June, by
which it appears, that notwithstanding the con-
tinued successes which the Dutch troops are
said to gain over the rebels, the contest with
them still subsists in every direction. Extracts
of these papers are given in another column.

The Austrian Observer of the 4th inst., and
the Allgemeine Zeitung of the 9th, have also
reached us. The former contains a complete con-
firmation of the lauding of the whole Egyptian
expedition, consisting of 5,000 infantry and 500
horses, at Navarino and Modon, and of our Ad-
miral, Sir E. CODRINGTON, having assembled
a very considerable Naval force off Navarino.
The same paper mentions the report alluded to
in the French. Papers from Zante, that Sir E.
CODRINGTON had forbidden the .Commander
of.the Egyptian and Constantinopolitan fleet to
undertake any expedition till the, result of the
communication with Constantinople was known.
The accounts from Constantinople, in these
papers, are no later than the 15th Sept., and
therefore contain nothing fresh. The following
are extracts :

VIENNA, OCT. 4.—The .Observer of Trieste, of the
28th September, contains news brought by an Austrian
ship, of the arrival of the Egyptian fleet at Navarino, which
is confirmed by letters from Corfu of the 16th, which state
that that fleet had landed 5,000 infantry and 500 horses at
Navarino and Modon. Another letter from Corfu,. of the
20th, says—The Racer English maw', which arrived on
the 14th at Zante, brought word that Admiral Codrington
had assembled almost all the vessels under his command
near Navarino, viz. the Asia, Albion, su►il Genoa, of the
line; the Cambrian, Seringapatam, Naiad, Glasgow,
and Talbot frigates; and several small vessels. It was re-
ported at Zante that Admiral Codrington had intimated to
the Commander of the Egyptian fleet at Navarino to re-
main quite inactive with his ships, and not to, undertake
any expedition till the result of the communication. A
similar intimation has been made, to the Commander of the
Constantinopolitan squadron, so that at present the Egyp-
tian fleet is in a manner blockaded by the English squadron
at Navarino. Admiral Codrington was in hourly expecta-
tion of four French ships of war from Milo.
Lord Cochrane is said to be near the English squadron
with the Hellas. The inhabitants of Spezzia having
thought of flying on the approach of the Egyptian expedi-
tion, he had promised them to remain on their island. The
Chanticleer brig, which was at Zante, sailed, immediately
on the arrival of the Racer, to join Sir E. Codrington..—
The Ariadne, Captain Fitzelarence, sails to-day for Corfu,
to join Sir E. Codrington. The Greek Committee of Go-
verninent, which, since the late troubles at Napoli, resided
in the port Burtzi, is said to have returned to Egana.
CONSTANTINOPLE, SEPT. 15.—0 n the 9th, the Drago-
mans of the three Ambassadors waited again On the Reis
Effendi, to obtain a change in the resolution of the Porte,
but it persists in its refusal, and declares that it will con-
sider the first hostile measure as a violation of the peace.
In Pere, however, many persons doubt•whether it is consci-
ous of its weaknesi, and think it will suffer matters to come
to the last extremity with the three Powers. . A modifica-
tion of the measures resolved upon is.hourly to be expected,
as the Russian declaration, that, in case of necessity it
would effect the pacification of Greece alone, is too well
remembered, and will, snore probably, induce England and
France seriously to enforce the Convention of -6th July.
For this reason, the Porte is very likely to deceive itself, if
it reckons on any differences between the three Powers in
carrying the measures into effect. , •

The following private letter which has been
received from Corfu throws some additional light
on the reports in the Foreign Papers of - the in-
terference of Sir EDWARD CODRINGTON with
respect to the further operations of the Egyptian
expedition. It is stated that its ultimate object,
after collecting some ofthe scattered forces, was
to get possession of Hydra, which, in the present
posture of affairs, could not be permitted :

Coere, SEPT. 24, 1827.—We learn from .passengers
arrived from Zante, that the Egyptian fleet (arrived at
Navarino) had on board more than four thousand troops.
It intended to embark others from Navarino, from the
army of Ibrahim Pacha; thence to pass to the Gulph of
Lepanto, to receive a considerable body of Albanese col-
lected for the purpose by the Chiutacha Pacha of Rumelia,
and, thus strengthened, to make a landing en Hydra, to get
possession of that important island. The English Vice-
Admiral, however,lleclared to the commander that it would
not be permitted to make any attempt against any part of
Greece ; and that, in case of resistance on the part of any
part of the Egyptian fleet, he should be constrained to treat
it as a transgression of the regulations be had to enforce.
He added, that if the fleet were willing, to sail,, either for
Egypt or Constantinople, he should be happy to accompany
it with his squadron, and protect it from any attack of the
Greeks ; otherwise, that it was absolutely necessary that it
should remain within the port of Navarino till further in-
structions. . .

-.•The English ships from all quarters are sailing to join
Sir E. Codrington off Navarino. Two frigates and two
brigs have already gone from this port. A part of the
French fleet has also been directed to join him. Some say
the French Vice-Admiral is in the waters of Smyrna ;
others, that he has gone to Candia, in consequence of news
that a part of the Egyptian force had been sent towards
that Island.

There has hien an arrival to-day from Santa Maura.
The passengers say, that the gun-boat ( Guarda-costa) of
Calamo had brought the news that Lord Cochrane having
bombarded for some hours Vassiladi, near Missolonghi, got
possession of it by assault; that he bad then sent a light
flotilla into tho waters of Missolonghi, and landed troops at
Anatolico, the garrison of which, being very weak, capitu-
lated en the lame day. He is said afterwards to have
summoned Missoloaghi, but without attacking it. There
appears some foundation for this story, by the news brought
yesterday by an Austrian Trabacolo, that Lord Cochrane
had blockaded Vassiladi.
General Church is preparing an expedition to Negro-
pont, and a body of Itowaeliot troops is collected in the
Isthmus. Chiutachi has directed tile Capitani who sub-
mitted in consequence of the capitulation of the Acropolis,

to give up their arms; but they have applied to the Greek
Government to know whether what they had heard con-
cerning the treaty of the Great Powers be true. The Go-
vernment printed copies of the treaty, which it sent them.
They have put off the Paella without a definitive answer;
and if any troops issue from the Isthmus, will, no doubt,
join them, and renew the revolution.

Brussels Papers to the 14th instant have
been received this morning. The C oncordot
seems to have given great satisfaction to the
people from the fact of so many numbers being
sold after it appeared in the public prints. The
following are extracts :

BRUSSELS, OCT. 10.

Notwithstanding the insertion of the Concordat in all
the Journals of the kingdom, a great number of copies
printed separately has been sold : in the city of Ghent
alone four printers have published the Convention and the
Bull of his Holiness ; one of them - sold 4,000 copies is
three days.

The Journal of Antwerp says that a house at Am-
sterdam, which enjoyed the higheat credit, Lad just sus-
pended its payments.

We learn from Gkent that the canal of Terneusen pro-
ceeds rapidly, notwithstanding the great difficulties that
were to be overcome at Axelegat and many other places ;
the works towards the Western Schelde, which were began
only in March 1825, are already extended to the ramparts
of Ghent.

The number of deaths at• Amsterdam continues to exceed
that of births: from the Ist to the 6th there were 159
deaths and 136 births : at •Rotterdam, during the same pe-
riod, there were 23 deaths and 57 births.

OCT. 11.—The person of whom we have already spoken
as having been arrested on an accusation of having, besides
other transgressions, under the name of Major Stanhope,
cheated M. Hennessey, banker at Brussels, of 250 pounds
sterling, has just been brought to the prison of this city.
This is the same person who is advertised in the Frankfort
and other Journals, as having fraudulently obtained mosey
under the assumed name of Greville or Grenville, by means
of forged Bills of Exchange.
The Nieuws and Advortentieblad states, in No. 10, that
his Majesty's ship the Zealander brings 114 passengers,
70 of whom are children, who are sent home to the mother
coentry in consequence of the system of economy observed
in our East India Colonies.

The 13atavian Papers we have just received, though of
older date than those previously, brought, afford several in-
teresting particulars.

According to general reports, Diepo Negoro had 'given
orders to burn all the deesas, and bad sent out special
agents to organize bands of brigands. If some are made
examples of, others will be deterred from executing such
orders.

Colonel Cleerens states, that about the middle of April
the rebels still held their old position at Caminicombo and

The Batavia Courant of the 81st of May, contains
letter in French, written in answer to another, inserted in
the Singapore Chronicle, dated Batavia, 12th of April, but
evidently of English manufacture, concerning the measures
of our Government, and giving the most deplorable picture
of the state of commerce. The writer of the reply says,
that all the statements in the Singapore Chronicle are
erroneous. A cursory glance, he says, is sufficient, to
convince us that it never was more numerous.

All our exports are at a moderate and reasonable price.
The Exchange with the mother country, has been (with
'some trifling fluctuations) at par during the whole of the
last year.

By private letters received from France this
morning, it appears 'that an engagement has
taken place between the French squadron block-
ading Algiers, under Rear-Admiral COLLET,
and a squadron of Algerine ships of war. The
account which we have received rests on the
authority of the following letter from Toulon,
and it does not appear from this account that
the French Navy have acquired many laurels by
this skirmish. Had a British Fleet brought
such a squadron of Algerines to action, they
would not have lost sight of them at night :

The brig Faune arrived at Falmouth on the 10th
inst., and brings the following account :—On the 4th at
day-break M. Collet, being seven miles distant at the
north of Algiers, with the Amphitrite, Galathee, Faune,
Cyasme, and Champenoise, perceived, coming out of the
port of Algiers, eleven ships of war, one of which was a
great frigate of 18 guns, four corvettes of 20 to 24 guns,
eighteen-pounders, and six brigs or golettes. All these
vessels made sail towards the east, keeping the coast.
—The wind blew fresh, notwithstanding which
M. Collet sailed down immediately in pursuit of
them, when they manoeuvred to fight under the batteries
on the coast. About half-past twelve at noon the engage-
ment commenced, and twice the enemy gave way. At half-
past two they retreated under the batteries of their forts ;
and at night they entered the port, when he (M. Collet)
lost sight of them. The Algerine frigate and two large
corvettes have suffered most. The flag of a person of dis-
tinction was flying on board of one of the ships.

By the following circular we are happy to per-
ceive that justice will be done to the Memory of
that lamented Statesman whose public loss had
caused such universal lamentation. At pre-
sent, we shall only say that the memory of
GEORGE CANNING deserves a NATIONAL
MONUMENT. His worth is already too deeply
embalmed in the recollection of his :country,
but his memory demands a monument that
shall perpetuate his fame to future generations
The Noblemen and Gentlemen whose names are
undersigned, desiring to testify their profound regret
for the loss of Mr. Canning, their admiration of his
talents, and their respect and regard for his memory,
and having reason to believe that the like sentiments
prevail generally throughout the United Kingdom,
have undertaken to superintend the opening of a
Subscription for erecting a Monument to his me-
mory. To this demonstration of national feeling
they invite the aid of all classes of his Majesty's
subjects.

They propose, at the commencement of the ensuing
Session of Parliament, to solicit a general meeting
of the Subscribers, for the purpose of adopting such
measures as shall be then thought most expedient,
and of appointing a Committee to carry into effect
the common object.

The. Morning Herald of to-day publishes 3
letter said to have been received from its corre'
spondent at Constantinople, bearing the date 01
the 21st Sept. It contains no intelligence beyond
the 17th, and it is evident that there must be
some inaccuracy respecting its date. The Herald
does not inform its readers by what conveyance
this letter reached London.

Singapore Papers to the 13th April have been
received, they contain a long Proclamation front the Go-
vernor of Prince of Wales's Island, on the occasion of the
annexation of Singapore to that Government. They like'
wise contain a rough estimate of the Revenue accruing te
the East India Company through the maintenance of the
settlement of Singapore, which is made to amount to
159,500 sicca rupees. By these papers we have also some
accounts from China, which state an Act of ,Parliament
had been received at the British Factory, which, among
other provisions, throws open the port of Singapore to the
Americans, so that they may now trade there as freely 0
at Penang. The quantity of opium consumed by the Chi'
nese from April 1825 to January 1827, was 17,043 chests.
At the date of these advices it was reported the CenorbliiP
had been re-established at Singapore.

SMYRNA, SEPT. 3.—The Comet, Ormatai
arrived from Trieste, was boarded the 16th ult., off Cape
Matapan, by a Greek piratical schooner, of about 61 tool►
with four carriage guns, and 33 men ; but she made off
upon an Ainerican frigate appearing in eight, after e:cr
mining the vesseri papers.. His Majesty's ship Jasper 10
taken a piratical boat, with 15 armed men, in the Arches
she had 15 bales of English mannfactures on board.
