TO CORRESPONDENTS.
Steer. The third Letter of our distinguished Correspondent

The political agent of CAPO DISTILIAS at Ancona,

continues to communicate his opinions through the Paris
Papers. We yesterday copied an article from the
Cinutitutionxel, in which the writer asserts, that the

nomination of Prince LEOPOLD to the Sovereignty
of Greece, has " greatly afflicted the unfortunate Hel-
lenes." The probability of there being a syllable Of
truth in this assertion may be judged by the simple
fact, that the Greek people can scarcely yet be in-
formed that there was any such intention on the part of
Sovereigns. It is of course insinuated, that the project of
the English Government is to render the people of Greece
tributary. The most important portion of this article relates
to a petition said to have been got up at Napoli di Ro-
mania, and addressed to the Emperor of Russ' A, " sup-
plicating his Imperial Majesty to protect the poor
Greeks against England." If such a step has not been
actually taken, we have no doubt it will be adopted by

some ; and we as little doubt where it originates, or
who are the actors. Those who feel maims. to

said before, itremains to be seen, whether, if once on a
throne, the Prince possesses sufficient talent and energy
to support the new dignity.

We have just received the following important coon-
unication from our Paris Correspondent. The facts it
,mmunicates, will command the attention of our readers:

PARIS, Jas. 4.

Peace is now made, and union established, amongst
the Opposition party ; and it is possible, that it may be-
come a national one. The Ministry, after a hundred at-
tempts to obtain only a majority of three votes, have at last
acknowledged that the Chamber of Deputies was an ob-
stacle either to be avoided or to be destroyed ; but the
Ministry is not unanimous either for the former or the
latter of these plans : and as M. DE CHABEOE and M.
DE COURVOISIER are the only persons who oppose it,
you will hear very soon of their retreat ; and it is not till
after this change, that the adjournment of the Chambers
will be decided on, as a preparatory measure fertile disso-
lution of the Chamber of Deputies.
Since the Ministers have lost every expectation of
mastering the Deputies, and of obtaining from the Elec-
toral Colleges, such as they are now constituted, others
more comiant, looked round to the Chamber of Peers
where they met men, not only disposed to forward their
I views, but even to extend them.

Thukit is, that in order to effect a counter-party to these
Deputies who are pledged to vote against the continuance
in office of the Ministry, a Committe of Peers, under the
direction of the mytorious DE B---o, is trying to per-
suade his colleagues of the Upper Chamber to sign
a petition to the KING, calling on him to use the
powers reserved to him by the Charter, for the
establishment of an electoral law mom conformable to the
monarchical system.

The following are extracts from this Address :—" The
Charter says, that to be an Elector, it is necessary to
pay 300 francs of territorial or direct taxes; but it does
not state that all those who pay 300 francs of contribution
must be electors. It is therefore in the power of the
King, without violation of the Charter, to reduce the

number of the Electors, who only have exercised their
rights in virtue of an absurd and illegal extension given
by the Chambers to an article of the Charter.
" The Charter speaks about territorial contribution.

It is evident that the import of licenses (patentcs) is not
a territorial contribution. It was therefore unjust of the
Chambers to have included, in the several electoral laws,
that impost under the head of direct taxes, which has
crowded the Electoral Colleges with manufacturers and
shopkeepers, enemies to order, and the King can, without
violating the Charter—(nay, it is his duty to preserve it)
—decree that the licenses, nos being a territorial con-
tribution, must cease to be reckoned amongst those which
constitute the electoral right.
" Even the age required by the Charter to be a
Deputy, is not in relation to the exigencies of the
present moment. Men 40 or 55 years old to-day,
are the men of the Revolution or the empire—the men
of the Monarchy of fidelity and religion, are extinguish-
ing daily ; and henceit is, that evil principles triumph in.
the Chamber of Deputies. In fixing that the age of thirty
years be required to become a Deputy, the doors of the
Chamber would be open to men, strangers to the revolu-
tion and the empire, and whose political education has
been formed under the influence of the restoration and
religion. If it is said that this is to violate the char-
ter, we reply that the author of the charter him-
self had effected this change on the second restoration
to the great joy of the Liberals" In a few days the peti-
tion received upwards of two hundred signatures, all
thereof Peers. It will be presented to the Kivu forth-
with, and it is not doubted that he will be thereby induced

to adopt violent measures. It is asserted that the whole
of this operation will only cost five millions of francs to
the Ministry. lam sure it will cost a great deal more to
the KING. Already, notwithstanding the secrecy which
these men of the monarchy observe, the project is brought
to light. In a few days it will be generally known, and
every one is preparing to act according to circumstances.

The excellent letter-of THE OLD Low Tut, which will
be found in another column, contains an allusion to the
Marquis of BLANDFORD, on which we are disposed to
hang a few observations. Our correspondent says, that
he took up "the great subject of Reform when
it was lying in the dust, and abandoned by many
of its tbrmer pretended friends." This, while
it is only the strict truth, is at the same time too into
resting a fact, not greatly to enhance the debt of grad:
tude which the country owes to the Noble MA EQUIlig
.When his alacrity in so popular a cause is put in
with its indefensible desertion by those,wbo had arrogited
to themselves the exclusive4ollt. ;• and—as it were—

like Lord lityrox, who mast

eloquent appeal of the Noble MARQUIS to the spirit
and independence of the Housew—a/as! for these va-
nished attributes—and walked away when the di-

vision was called, disdaining to support the very advo-
cacies on which he has so often affected to pride himself,
when it suited his narrow purposes to do so ? We could
individualise others, but we are willing at present that
tbe Noble VISCOUNT should be their scape-goat ; the
more especially, since we have reason to know that other
and better feelings have already begun to predominate in
tour of the Noble MARQUIS, and party animosities to
lose themselves in considerations for the public cause. The
motion of Lord BLANDFORD—which will be brought on
very early in the ensuing Session—we confidently
predict, will experience a far different reception
to that, which he made on the second of June.
The minds of many individuals who opposed, or
deserted their own principles then, will have recovered
their sound and healthy action ; their intellectual vision
will be purged ; and instead of seeing in the patriotic
attitude of this virgin reformer only the workings of
anti-catholic virulence, they will hear—and second with
admiring conviction—his manly and sincere denuncia-
tions of a vicious and corrupt oligarchy, his intrepid and
exemplary call for political regeneration.
And whence—we will ask of those men, whose sullen
apathy last year has rendered them fairly obnoxious to
the preceding comments—whence can regeneration come
to us with a more charming attraction, from what quarter
can a great people's redemption dawn more appropriately,
than from the family of one of its most distinguished
heroes? Than from the eyrie of that illustrious Eagle ,which
soared in glory over the plains of Blenheim ? It was precisely
such a champion, as Reform now finds in the Noble
MARQUIS—the desired leader, too long unsupplied in
its emergence—for whom the Country panted : it was to
II ix that we made allusion, when in an essay
which we may perhaps more extensively circulate, we
took occasion to say, speaking of the qualifications
requisite for such a task :—" A high rank in the
country, and a rigorous mind, ought undoubtedly to be
his: and if, in addition to his other positive fit-
nesses, he inherit one of the many names which
are enshrined in the people's recollection, from
what a vantage-point might such a regenerator
work his lever, and grind to powder the very foundations
of Corruption !" Exoriare sallied:, was our concluding
aspiration—but we felt that he was already risen.

We call the attention of our readers to a letter addressed
to the Duke of WELLINGTON, on a subject of universal
interest. We have only time to express a hope that the
Noble Duke will at least read the facts and arguments of
Mr. PowELL—and moreover that they may be rendered
practically useful in the course of those reforms in our
judicial and legislative systems, which all agree, can no
longer be deferred.

In passing through the lower part of Regent-street this
morning, our eyes were cheered by a very unusual sight—
namely—a number o f poor persons sweeping the pavement,
and rendering it passable, superintended by a Sergeant of
Police, who had, we understood, just knocked at each
door, and informed the Gentlemen Servants that
all future infractions of the rules relative to clean-
sing the pavement, would be visited by the se-
verest penalties of the Law. Being anxious to as-
certain the motive which led to so praiseworthy an
action the part of the Sergeant, we ventured to interro-
gate him on the subject ; upon which be said, that having
heard that the neglect of his companions had been
noticed in an Evening Paper, he determined to
render himself no longer liable to the charge,
and therefore an object of censure. Having, as we
firmly believe, been almost the only journal of
the metropolis, to notice the inattention both of the
Police and servants on this subject, we take some credit
to ourselves for the symptoms of reformation which have
commenced in Regent-street. The contagion is so
salutary, that we hope it will extend to every other
street in London. In the meanwhile, we hereby promise
never to find faith with Mr. P &EL'S Bill, so long as its
scions are employed in saving the necks and limbs of his
Majesty's liege subjects !
