FROM THE GERMAN PAPERS.
VIF.NNA, OCTOBER 6.
The last mail from Constantinople, of September 10,
brings the accounts, which we teceived before from
Trieste, of the attempt of the Greek fire-ships in the
port of Alexandria, but has nothing new from the
theatre cf war, especially in the Morea. The Hydra
journals, No. 137 to 139, which we have received by
the same channel, come down only to the 12 r of
August, N. S. and contain no accounts of engagen'tents
either by land or sea, except a short notice of two in-
considerable affairs on the 4th of August, with a snAll
corps of Egyptians and Albanians, that went to forag
.on the plain of Caritene. It is remarkable that in these,
three numbers of the Hydra ('azelle, not a syllable is
sa'd of the famous act of the Provisional Government
of Napoli di Romania, but oddly enough, No. 137, of
August 5, gives the protest of the French and American
Deputies from the Philhellenic Societies (Roche and
.Washington), with the following introduction :
lIVDRA, ACCOST 5.
" For some days past manuscript copies have been
circulated here, of a representation of the French Ge-
.neral Roche and the American Mr. Washington to the
Supreme Du ec tor y.
" Difficult as we find it to believe, that, according to
the custom of civilized nations, such an act could, with
propriety, be presented to a Government by men who,
though distinguished, and in all respects worthy of
genes al esteem, are otherwise destitute t f all political
And diplomatic character, and though we are not even
now officially informed of the authenticity of this papery
we think it our duty to insert it in our paper, that our
Readers may not complain that we keep them in total
ignorance of passing events in Greece."
" Here follows the protest of Messrs. Roche and
Washington of the 26th of July, and the Hydra Ga-
.zetie concludes with the following sentence: 1 If such a
M Thing has really been presented to the Directory, and
the Government thinks fit to answer it, we promise, as
soon as we receive the answer, to communicate it for
the satisfaction of our Readers.'
" Since this, General Roche and Mr. T. Washington
have addressed themselves to Ibrahim Pacha, to propose
an as mistice to him, we know not whether in the name
of the Great natl. n or a part of it. The Pacha has re-
jected the proposal.
" Later accounts from Constantinople of the 16th
(by express), state that news had been received there
from Napoli di Romania of the beginning of this month,
that Ibrahim Padre, with 2,000 men, had marched
. towattis the south of the Peninsula, it was s tid to
Motion, there io wait for the reinforcements expected
.tionl Alexandria, which are reported to amount to
. 8,000 men.

The official statement of the Revenue of France, for
the last nine months, as contrasted with its progress in
the corresponding period of 1824, has appeared in the
Moniteur, from which it is evident, and we observe it
without envy, that national prosperity, by the,assiduous
cultivation of the arts of Peace, advances in France,
perhaps more rapidly than even in England. Fur the
first nine months of 1824, the Revenue was 766,733,000
francs; and in the nine months just ended, it rose to
779,101,000 francs. That is to say, for the former
period the yearly revenue in sterling money was at the
rate of 40,892.426/. and for the latter at the rate of
41,552,053/. which is more than four fifths of the
British income, incumbered only with a charge less than
a fourth pan of the British National Debt, the total
yearly expense for the ur:redeemed debt of this coun-
try beivg in sound numbers about twenty-eight mil-
lions, while that t f France is only about 6,300,00 C/
It is stated in an eminent Morning Paper, but we think
rather querulously, that the Fr etch Minister has, from
this great and incre.u.;ng surplus (4 income, given no
relief to the people; but, on the contrary, saddled them
with a debt of It rty millions for the benefit of the
emigrants. This is, however, hardly fair. In the first
place, he has applied the whole of the savings created
by the reduction of the five per cents to the diminution
of direct taxation. This was not a great relief certainly,
but it was net much less than a fourth part of the whole
incumbrance that will be brought en by the intended
emigrant loan, when that transaction shall have been
perfected. In the next place,the expense entailed for relief
of the emigrants was not forty millions sterling, but only
an annuity of thirty millions of francs, or C. 1,200,000
sterling, the slight pressure of which, to the French
people, must be evident, when the surplus of this year's
revenue over the la.t is very nearly at the rate of an
annuity of sixteen millions and a half of francs. Lastly,
this charge, which is contemplated on account of the
emigrants, is not to be all at once incurrt'd, but gra-
dually, in five yearly portions, each only to tae extent of
£240,000 per annum, which can scarcely be felt at all
in a revenue of forty-one and a half millions sterling,
and that revenue evidently on the increase, to say nothing
of the subsidy from Hayti.
But it is objected that with such a flourishing Re-
venue, it is incumbent on the French Minister to give
relief to the people by a remission of taxes: In our
opinion he is acting far snore wisely, and providing for
their permanent relief more effectually, by proceeding
tepidly in till extinction of their National Debt, a

policy which we most cordially Wish b ere imitatei°
nearer home. To annihilate a perpetual annuity o
only 6,300,000/. the French willingly support a Sink-
ing Fund of 3,200,0001. sterling per annum, operating,
At compound interest, at the rate of live per Cent.
while the people of this great Empire, posses,ing, per-
!ups, quadruple the means of France, most reuctantly
submit to a Sinking Fund of only Five Millions a year,
'to extinguish a perpetual annuity of 28 milli ins; and
even this small instalment, which would be all-suffi-
cient if held sacred for its purpose, is to be so modified
as only to redeem one-hundreth pat t of the capital of the
existing debt in each year; and therefore, when it has
grown for instance to eight millions, it is to be then
pared down again, which is next to no redemption at
all. We are far from imputing blame, nn this account,
to the enlightened statesmen who preside over our na-
tional policy. The fault is purely that of the people of
England, who shut their eyes to the consequences of a
mortgaged Revenue, which in case of war must continu-
ally increase, and with one voice refuse to listen to any
proposition for the reduction of the public incum-
brances. The fault, in a ten-fold degree, is to be la'd
at the door of the Disciples of the New School of Po-
lineal Economy, who laugh to scorn the idea of a
Sinking Fund, or any other means of redemption;
whose arguments will be found, when carefully ana-
lysed, to terminate in this conclusion, that in time of
war a Sinking Fund is illusory, and makes no real pro-
gress in reducing the debt; in time of peace it is in-
tolerable, as the people require such a remission of
taxes as shall reduce the revenue to the lowest amount
that will defray:the cunent expenditure. Ergo, we are
neither to get rid of the debt in war nor in peace.

But be it known to the school-men that whether the
debt be or be nut reduced in time of peace, it will cer-
tainly increase in time of war. No Minister in his
senses will pretend to lay on at once war taxes to such an
amount as will fit out an armament and put the country
in a state of defence. If he did, the taxes would not
come in time enough to prevent the conquest of the
conntry. Loans, therefore, must and will be resorted
;o, and we fancy that if there be a certainty of pro-
gressive borrowing, and no preparation for any repay-
ing, there is a point at which such a state of things
must terminate.

Al,hough it is scarcely possible that Captain PARRY
can have made any important discovery during his last
voyage, yet his surveys will add something towards the
hydrography of the Arctic regions, and the collections
that have been made must increase our treasures of
Natural History. The course taken by the Expedition
was through Davis' Strai:, Baffin's Bay, Lancaster
Sound, and Barrow's Strait, which leads into Prince
Regent's Inlet. Fort Bowen, where the ships wintered,
is, as we stated, in N. lat. 73 deg. and W. long. 89 deg.
being about 120 miles from the point where Captain
PARRY was stopped in his last voyage. It must not,
however, be considered that the Expedition did not
reach so far as the preceding one, as they prcceeded on
different routes. It appears that as soon as the last
summer commenced, they stood to the south-westward,
and reached 72 deg. 46 min. N. hit. and 91 deg. 50 rr►in,
W. long. where the Fury was lost, and they were com-
pelled to turn back. This point is about 420 geogra-
phical miles N.E. from Cape Turnagain, the boundary
of FRANKLIN'S discovery, to the eastward of the mouth
of Coppermine River; but it is not so far West by 300
miles as they made out on their first voyage of discovery.

Owing to the delay in the mails, and there being no
expresses in from Palk, the latest French Papers we
have received arc those of Monday, and they are ex-
tremely barren of intelligence, scarcely possessing a
single article of interest. It is true that they contain a
telegraphic dispatch from Lyons, announcing the safe
arrival—not of CHARLES X. but of a statue of his an-
cestor, Louts XIV. These Papers also deny an asser-
tion in one of the English Papers, that Mr. HU.SRISSON
has gone to Paris to conclude a Treaty of Commerce
with France; as, ‘, in the present state of legislation
respecting Custom-houses, any Treaty of Commerce is
a thing impossible."

There is a custom in Jersey, which occurs fortunately
but once in thirty years, but when it does come it is ab-
solute, and from it there is no appeal. Certain officers
who have the care of preserving the boundaries of land,
ride round the island, and wherever they observe an
encroachment, they touch it with a javelin, and down
the tree or building must come. But on the same day
there is a Scurnalia; servants and masters are on a
perfect equality, and every man, down to the very
chimney-so eeper, has.a right to salute any woman he
finds in the streets or toads. This year, which is the
thirtieth, the English ladies were so shocked at the c.rn-
templation of such freedom, that they all locked them-
selves closely barricadoed in their apartments; but
the natives went abroad as usual.

SUDBURY. UCTOBLIt 15.

Yesterday, at eleven o'clock, John Walks, Esq. (who
Las declared himself a candidate to represent this Bo-
rough in Parliament, on independent principles) was
aleted into this tow is by the ringing of bells, preceded
by a band of music, flags, &c. a cavalcade of his
friends, and followed by a numerous patty of freemen.
After partly parading the town, this Gentleman ad.
tressed the Electors Item the Black Boy Inn, in a
;leech ot wlr'ch the following it: an outline :
" Gestteues—l am now at Sudbury, and it will take some
troLble to drive tee from hence. lam nut attached to any party,
nor will I be. I will fulfil all the promises I make you. I can
jump, or kap a gate, a four, or five-barred gate, aye, or any other
rate, even it it should be a liigh-gate.—(Alluding to the worthy
Alderman I leyeate.) (Cheers and disapprobation.) You have
t.lled we the Poor Ulan's Friend—( By the candidate)—Bravu!
I ! bravo ! lam the Poor Man's Friend. Why ? Because
I reject the rich man. Who represents the great mass of the
Fecplc ?--The Poor. Who have (ought our great battles ?—The
roar. Who have manned our Navy?—The Poor. I have now
coed to you my princi; les. I will take no man by surprise. (Cheers.)
(Here the candidate received a suggestion front a Gentleman on
hi. right). I now re-state, state, and re-state, that I am an enemy
is Catholic Emancipation. The Catholic Religion is the same now
itever has been; the seeds are the same, the fruit is the same.
You may r,,me down to my cowry seat, raze it to the ground,
burn my effigy to ashes, and me afterwards, if I retract this deter-
mination. lam friendly to free trade from principle. I ant a
member t.f the Church of England, and where I know an honest
Churchman, I know an honest Dissenter; from my cradle I have
nursed these principles. My stay among you will be very short.
I have nothing more to say than that I am determined to stand
cornea till the last, until there is nut another vote uupolled. I
oine here the Poor Man's Friend ; let its not feel any animo-
sks towards any man or men. ' lave and let Think
kt think'—let us be peaceable and orderly. I come down
rte aid independent i rinciples—let all men think as they like.
I ,•e again, Inas end Ind-7enfklice.'-1 am independent. I
!..se tow, Gentlemen, I believe, discharged my duty—l am not
what. that I have nor. I have actually left my country seat, :,nd
'e moor, to be among you. I hope to renew my visit, and
.nd when I visit you at Christmas, I hope to see blazing
tit sirloins of beef toasting by your kitchen fires, puddings
yoia pers. and the flagon of ale at your lips—(land cheers).
7-o .Ay. Guitlenien, that lam flattered by this day—l am ez-
.crdia.,ly flattered —I ant honoured, and particularly so when I
s e me sa many pretty faces, honest faces, and fathers of
1.:1213.7*. (knifemen, I thank you, I thank you sincerely for having
kii,dly and so h mils:mu:ly received me."—(Cheers).
Immediate)) alter an active canvass commenced,
and this evening completed die undertaking. The in-
rie[endent candidate again addressed the electors nearly
as yesterday, but from his extreme state of exhaustion
(having had but four hours' rest since his arrival), lie
tsar prevented Irons going into a detail of to-day's can-
'a,„ Two circumstances he mentioned which had cc-
ctincd to him on his canvass: A voter had asked him,
":rte you a friend to the Slave Trade?" "Certainly
not. Do you supFcr:e 1 like to see a traffic ot
human flesh—human creatures' flesh to be sold like
dogs':" The other, What are you ? are you a Tory
or a Whig?" " Neither." " What, neither ?" 4, No, nei-
ther." " Why, then, you must be a Radical ?"—" Yes, I
am a Itadcal for that which is radically good. I am
the constitutirnal John Wilks—the constitutional Bri-
ton."—(Lond cheers).—Report speaks favourably of the
result of this Gentleman's canvass.—Bury Post.

LONDON MARITIME INSTITUTION.—Yesterday the
subscribers and friends to this Institution held their
annual meeting, at the Marine Society's Rooms, over
the Royal Exchange, for the purpose of receiving the
report of the Committee for the past year, and the
election of officers for the year ensuing. The attend-
ance of Members was rather more thin than usual, but
this circumstance was amply compensated fur by the
very cheering prospect of the Society's affairs, displayed
in the report. After passing some routine resolutions,
and electing a Treasurer, Secretary, and Committee of
Nlanagement, the Meeting separated. In the evening
they again assembled with increased number, at the
London Tavern, where the annual dinner was held,
and a truly grateful feast it proved. Several appro-
Trinte speeches were delivered, and, between sentiment
and song, the company were lail under embargo until
an advanced hour of the morning.

number of cattle, which was on its passage from Dona-
1-11?adee to Portpatrick, went suddenly down, when
Itbin about a mile and a half of the la.trr place, and
carried to the bottom every creature within her. As she
Ih
ius vanished like the "baseless fabric of a vision,"
rhuut leaving a single " wreck behind," nothing as yet
been learnt of her name, or that of her owner, or
Low the accident occurred.—Dunefr;es Courier.
