is always hoitile`tO the Greeks, hakthe following re'
flections in its number of the 13th Dexember, on tb6
limits which the Greeks wish to have for their frow
tier :—" The first idea which should -prevail in,fiting
the frontiers of a state, is undoubtedly to secure it
from the hostile attacks of a neighbouring state.
The negotiators at Poros, at least two of them, or
pear to have viewed the question in another light, ao
they proposed to fix the continental frontiers of
Greece between the Gulfs of Arta and Volo.
" Such a frontier-would certainly not secure to the
Greeks that tranquillity which theniediating Powero
propose.

"The Morea, which, if well cultivated, could Sup'
port two millions of inhabitants, surd has tit present
.not a fourth of- that population, together with the
islands which surround it, :should. satisfy the ambi'
tion of the Greeks. Any farther. extent of territory
would produce endless quarrels, and a continual state
of war which would disturb the peace of Europe.
" The treaty of London proposes the tranquillity
arid the welfare of the Greelcs.:! its spirit must be
adhered to. The English Ambassadorhas declared
that his Government would not have Greece extend
beyond the Mena."

PARIS, FEB. is' affirmed that a loan 0'
25,000,000 has 'Just been coutraeted• by' the Porttr !
guese Government with 'a banking-house at Pixie'
This loan, it is said, will be repaid by ,Means of am
nuities, and will be secured upon one of the tuaochei
of the. public revenue of that kingdom. The pro'
duce of the tax allotted to this payment is to be
paid into the the hands of the Contractors or their
agent at Lisbon. It. is thought that the farm of. WI
Nero, or, that of the wine of Oporto, 'will be selected
for this purpose ; so that the Contractorwould be
paid in this manner, not by the Treasury, but by 01
farmer of the tax assigned for the purpose.
If we are well informed, this loan, to be repaid ie
25 annuities, has been contracted for at the rate 0'
80 per cent.

LONDON,
WEDNESDAY EVENING, PEBRIIARy 4, NW.

Public expectation looks forward with mud'
anxiety to his MAJESTY'S Speech to-morroo
The impression seems to be general that the
state of Ireland will, be a prominent feature in the
Speech, and that the question of Catholic
Emancipation will be definitively settled. We
sincerely trust it. That on'e act would make the
Government more popular than any Administra'
tion for the last 50 yeara.

The French Papers are not distinguished bi
any article of importance. The same alacrity
exists at Toulon and the southern ports of Franco
in repairing the :losses or in filling up the
casualties resultinoifrom the expedition to Greece.

It appears by..the arrival of a merchant vessel
which left Tetieeira on the 23d ult. that
of the Portuguese. Emigrants were preyented
from landing,* that Isbnd by his Majesty's Ail)
Pallas, ante 'two smaller vessels of war, which
left England .some time before with ~~ sealed
orders." As the information has not yet arrived
in an authentic shape, we abstain from making
remarks upon a proceeding which under any vie's'
of it is surrounded with many embarrassing cir-
cumstances. A Morning Paper observes, that
English ships are, refused as transports for the
Portuguese emigrants, because " there is t►p
chance through' such means. of landing their
upon the spot desired, and that expedients aro
seeking to overcome this difficulty by the
employment of American vessels. One vessel
of a large class, being six hundred tong
burden, has been already engaged at
freight double of that at which the English ship'
owners would have been willing to undertake'
the contract, but the Captain is of determine'
character, and engages to land the emigrants lo
carries to Terceira, in spite even of thO
squadron, He will dispute their search under
such circumstances, and maintain his right to
carry passengers to any port he pleases. Tor time
Portuguese ships of war the Captain professes t1)0
utmost contempt, and will not hesitate toeng3g°
one of their frigates if molested. It is also.
derstood that a French frigate will conyey 133
Terceira those emigrants who have landed 3$
Havre, and that orders have been given by the
French Government to accomplish it,. whatever
opposition may be offered. The Governor of
Terceira is in communication, by every channel
that presents itself, with the Portuguese Arn-
bassador in London."
