LONDON,
THURSDAY EVENING, JUNE 7, 1827.

We received last evening the Moniteur of
Monday, and the Etoile dated Tuesday morning,
but their contents are not of political importance.
None of the other morning papers appeared on
Monday, and the Moniteur seems to have been
published for the express purpose of announcing
the appointment of a long list of Knights Com-
manders of the Order of the Holy Ghost.
The Etoile classes under Lies of the Day the
statement made by the Journal des Debats,
that Russia is about to have recourse to arms
against the Turks, but makes no observation
upon that subject.

The POPE has nominated to several of the
vacant Bishopricks in the New States of South
America. The new Prelates appear principally
to be persons already possessing church dignities
in the respective dioceses.nver which they are to
be placed.
Extracts of these papers are given in another
column, and we subjoin the price of the Funds
on Monday.

It is with much regret that we observe the
tables of both Houses of Parliament crowded
with the petitions of Dissenters for the abolition
of the Test and Corporation Acts. Without
entering into the merits of their case, it is impos-
sible not to disapprove the stirring of that
question at present. By the breaking up of
the late Cabinet, the friends of rational liberty
have reason to expect, at no distant period, a
decided and visible improvement in the condi-
tion of society, the final relinquishment of those
narrow views, which regarded the whole as born
for the benefit of the few, and the substitution
of a new system equally removed from the equally
dangerous theories of the Ultra Tory and the
Radical Reformer. But if no time is given
to take advantage of that dispensation of a
merciful Providence ; if, whilst the friends of
abuse are still undaunted by their late overthrow,
the hands of the new Administration are to be
clogged by the asserters of civil liberty,—we can
see in such conduct nothing but a source
of triumph to the Orangemen, and of anxiety
to those who are desirous of sharing with their
fellow-citizens the inestimable privileges of the
British Constitution.

But, strange, altogether, is the conduct of some
of these Dissenters. Whilst fully alive to the
disabilities under which they themselves labour,
they have no sympathy with the Roman
Catholics, suffering under infinitely greater
wrongs ; and, instead of making common
cause with them in the assertion of civil rights,
they too often swell with their names the list of
petitions against Catholic Emancipation.

Our readers will observe with pleasure that
the Bill for annulling the marriage between Mr.
WAKEFIELD and Miss TURNER iS likely to
pass through the Rouse of Commons with ra-
pidity, the House having agreed to Mr. PEEL'S
suggestion to admit the evidence taken before

the House of Lords in this case, instead of as
amining all the witnesses at their own bar. The
indignation against the offender, and the cony
miseration for the sufferings which he has oc-
casioned the family of Miss TURNER, which
were so well expressed by Mr. PEEL, last night
in moving the first reading of the Bill, will fin&
their response in the breast of every man of pro'
per feeling throughout the country ; and they arc
few who will not lament that the punishment in'
flicted on the perpetrator of one of the lost
atrocious crimes which was ever committed 111
this country, should be so inadequate to is
moral turpitude.

We have received this forenoon, the Allge.
name Zeitung of the 31st ultimo, from which
the following paragraphs are extracted :
BRABANT, MAY 15.

which a Firman of the Sultan has been issued, ordering
the levy of a new tax. These letters contain no other noel'

GENEVA, MAY 25•
A few days since we had here a young man from the
Grand Duchy of Baden, who has served as Captain 01
ship under Miaulis, and went home last year to gee hie
family, but is now returning to the Greek fleet, wherfetii.-
is the only European. The accounts which he gave -
situation of Greece were very discouraging;
his whole heart is devoted to the people and their canoe, he
considers the ensuing campaign as the last, unless the
enemy's force, by sea and land, is completely disabled.
The principal dependence is to be placed on Lord Cochrane
and his success. Even the people themselves, who ate,
quite exhausted, and in want of almost every thing, (1,,°
not dissemble that their fate must be shortly decided, and
are prepared for the worst. It is impossible to speak WO
more truth and enthusiasm of the nation, of its character,
and its many good qualities, than he does; while, on the
other hand, he cannot find terms strong enough to exprege
his contempt of the chiefs of this unfortunate nation. $e W
has set out to-day for Genoa, where he will embark I
Greece. and thong

Frankfort papers to the 31st ult. have 816°
been received this morning. They contain 0'
thing important. Mention is made, in the fol'
lowing extract, of a forth-coming work, under
the title of " Memoires d'uk homme D'Etet
Prussien," which are given out as the Mernoir°
of the late Prussian Chancellor Prince ilAg'
DRNBURGH.

BERLIN, MAY gv.
M. Schoen has inserted in Hamburgh and other paPe,'"'
a declaration, in which he says, he has heard for certo
that a work is advertised under the title of Memoires d'lo
homme d'etat Prussian ; which are given out as the Mr
moires of the late Prussian Chancellor, Prince Hardenburt;
the French original is to be published at Paris, and a Germs
man translation by a respectable bookseller in Nortber°
Germany. To prevent the public from being deceive':
and to secure his owa name against any conjectures
O
this account, he declares that he knows nothing eitb;
`'
good or bad of the workadvertised, as he has seen no pa
L
of it; that some person may have written, or intend 1",,
write Memoires pour :emir n l'Histoire du Pri?tc`
Hardenburg is possible, though he knows no person
messed of sufficient materials; but Memoires du Przlii.„e.°,
Hardenburg could not be published without a hig/4
pable participation on his part, or by the co-operatiO
another person holding an office under the PrusgioivraZ
vernment, who is far above all suspicion. Memoirs GI"
late Chancellor, written by himself, are only for the Years
1801 1801 to July, 1807, written in the German language wlbt
extraordinary frankness : part of those are translated

them to be wholly different.

Letters from Paris, received this moaning'
mention that information had been received fr4s:
Madrid, that the Duke SAN CARLOS has bee-
appointed Ambassador to the Court of FrOcei
instead of being appointed Prime Minister °a
Spain. It is also stated, that, such is the stg
of public feeling in Barcelona, that there is ever
reason to believe that the province will short
be in a state of revolt.

['hese papers state, that, after a careful perusal of the

Toying, under the guidance of Colonel Arthur; arm' he

the aborigines of the Colony, issued a regulation for the
mnishrnent of such crimes as they committed, and points
ut how far the settlers may use force in repelling their ag-

lrought in the Colony, which had obliged the cattle to be
lent very far inland.

Letters from Brussels state, that a Russian
Cabinet 'courier had passed through that city,
for London, from St. Petersburgh, and that it
was immediately reported that the Emperor
NICHOLAS had decided to have recourse to
arms against the Turks, and that a considerable
armament was preparing at St. Petersburgh.
