VIENNA, OCTOBER 9.

The Greek Chronicle of Missolonghi continues to
give the journal of the siege: these accounts come
down to the 18th of Augu•t. Nothing of any decisive,
importance is recorded. Redschid Pacha was pri,se-
cuting the siege with considerable activity, and a bridc
fire was maintained on both sides. The Turks were
' actively employed in raising a kind of dam, to unite
diffeient parts of their works. The Greeks have given
to this the name of the Union dam, and keep up a con•
tinued fire to prevent the execution of this project, on
which they say ltedschid Pacha appears to place his
hopes. The Greeks, on their part, were raising new
wet ks within the town, and express great confidence in
the final result of the contest.

The French Papers of Tuesday have reached us.
They contain the Greek news which we have elsewhere
quoted from the Germao Papers. The Alemoeial Bot.'
deltas, contains an article from Madrid of the 6th inst.
which states, that everything is tranquil in the capital
—that the Ministers are very active, and that the ru-
mour < lan amnesty is revived.
A letter from Madrid of the 20th ult. states, that the
F,rench and English Ambassadors press the Cabinet of
Spa'n to acknowledge the independence of the South
Ame:ican States; the mediation of England being
offerei to effect this object; bnethe Spanish Minister
replied, that the KING would never recognize his ancient
colonies, but as colonies.

The Gazette of Hanau contradicts the statement in
a Paris letter, in the Angsbargh Gazette, that a m's-
understanding had taken place between Mr. ROTH&
BUILD and M. DE VI LI.ELE, and states, what we always
believed to be the f.tct, ti,at this eminent family pos-
sesses the fug confidence of every Government v, ith
hick it ttan,,acts busitte,s.

These Paieis announce the de ith of his Majesty
:MAXIMILIAN JOSEPH, king of Bavaiii, on the 13th

sixty-ninth ) ear, having been born on the 27th n•
May,1756, and is succeeded by his son, Louts CH A b Les,
the Pi ince It-yal, ho WAS born in 1786, and nun

burghausen.

By the arrival of the packet ship from New York,
which place she left on the 24th ult. Papers have

been received up to that date at, the North and Soith
American Coffee House. Acuitints from the state of
Ml ne, represent the'fire in tt:e %voids as haling been
checked by heavy rain:; immense havoc had, how-
ever, keen made in some parts, to an event of thirty
miles. One of these Papers contains an account from
Sierra Morro; of the 25th June, stating that a sanguinary
war betsseen two ttibes in Africa, had supplied the
Slave market with a large nurnl.er of new vict:ms
in
the horrible traffic. Three vessels with American flags
1)1(1 been cruising on the slave coast.

It will be seen by our stock letter tl:at 6e Funds
have suffered a slight depressien, owing to certain
rumours on 'Change. One is, that the Bank of England
is about to call in a million 2nd a half of morey it has
out on loan; we believe, h.)wever, that the Built has
not more than a tenth of t'•at sum so employed. An
o:her rumour is, that the Equitable Society is
II About to divide a large portion of its accumulated
funds; this measu•e, we understand, has not yet been
decided on, nor can it, except by a resolution of the
opt ieters, which is no: likely to be done precipitately.

In the next rage t. e have nisi nee a very able speech
by Mr. Wit.mor-Fit turox, in the Town Hall of Net"-
ca,tle-iu -Lyme, on the occation cf a Vote of Thal ks
being given to that Gentleman for his public and Par-
liamentary services, at the Elrctson of the MAYOR, and
other Corpo ate Officers of that Borough The many
hol.esty,and trueEngli,h feeling it displays in advocating
the right of freedom of opinion, ate only equaled by the
compre er.sive and libel al view it takes of a gnt•stion
of great delicacy and importance, and one on which
tie best and wisest of &tact-men arc found to differ.
