CONSTANTINOPLE, SEPTEMBER 17.

Only a few days ago it was hoped that the Janissa-
ries would not immediately employ their increased in-
fluence against the Grand Vizier; and some persons al.
ready fancied he was secure in his post, when he was
suddenly deposed on the 14th. It is said, indeed, that
he has been graciously permitted to remain in•the capi-
tal, but the fate of his predecessors gives occasion to
apprehensions of all kinds.
This event will embarrass the European Diplomatists,
for Gilalib Pacha is acquainted with the affairs of Eu-
rope, and a liberal and enlightened Statesman. He is
,universally pitied by the Franks. His successor is the
Pacha of Silistria, who began his career on the 17th
Orta of the Janissaries. To-day, there is a report of
the arrival of an Austrian ship, which is said to bring
the news that the Captain Pacha, having been joined
by some Egyptian ships, had again appeared before
Samos. (An article from Odessa, dated 24tIrSept. c ,a-
tains in substance the same particulars.)

hfr. C. P. Priebe, merchant, in Crosby-square, was charged by
his brother 'Mr. A. L. Pasche, with appropriating to his own use

had' done everything to injure the camplaittafit, and fearing the con-
sequences of ihit intimacy, he had entered into new articles of part-.

of a dissolution was published in Theqa.,;eop: but on Monday, last
he discovered the prisoner, who had never before drawn, above .€lO
lat a time, had taken to himself £6O. Mr. P. was extremely anxious
to read what seemed a very lengthy narrative of their affairs, and,
some letters ; while the Alderman was desirous he should give the
points onty, and, those briefly—Mr. Smith, the Solicitor, on the
other hand, produeetrthe articles of partnership, by which the ac-

no restriction as to the amount which either might draw from the

still a partner, as between themselves, though not perhaps as between
them and the Public. lie also shewed, fluin'the cash-book, which
he had-required the complainant to produce, that his client' had

PORTUGAL AND BRAZIL.

FROM THE FRENCH PAPERS.
LISBON, NOVP.4I BER 25.

Our Cabinet has been flinch occupied with the
grand question of Brazil. It has advanced much
less than is reported, and the English Journals ss eie
misinformed when they stated that it was en the point
of being concluded to the satisfaction of the friend,
of Brazilian independence. The question of absolute
independence is settled, and it is probable it will not con-
sent to give up Brazil, by which the crown of Tortuga:
will lose its bi ightest jewel. Alter numerous meetings
of the Council to consider this important question,
a resolution was come to in October last, by virtoe rd
which a project of arrangement with Brazil has been
drawn up, the chief points of which ate-Ist. That
Brazil shall continue to be a dependence of the Crown
of Portugal. 2d. That nevertheless that country shall
retain the name of an Empire. 3d. That it shall be
constitutionally governed by the Prince Royal, under
the title of Emperor Regent, till the death of the King,
his father. 4th. That, when he shall be called to the
Throne of Portugal, Brazil, though always preserving
the name of Empire and Constitution, shall have only a
Viceroy, who, by preference, shall be chosen from the
Royal Family. 5. That he shall not raise any tax
without a Decree of the Legislative Assembly. 6. That
the Empire shall be governed by its own laws alone.
7. That no foreign troops shall be introduced, &c.
This scheme has been sent to the principal Powers of
Europe, by whom it will doubtless be approved, a!th ugh
it guarantees to Brazil the Representative Government,
and other things which do not exactly accord with the
Holy Alliance. But some liberal concessions must be
made to regain, if possible, to the mother country, a ter-
ritory separated from it, and quite capable of maintaining
itself. They will be lucky at Lisbon if, at such a price,
they can retain so fair an ornament.
But what will be the fate of this scheme at Brazil ?
It is believed that it will not be disagreeable to the Em-
peror, and. to some of his principal adherents. The same
hope cannot be entertained with respect to the people,
who have so often voted for a decisive separation. If
it flatters those who are content with a Constitutional
Government, doubtless it will be objected to by those
who are aniious to see their country rank as an inde-
pendent nation, and these last are by far the most nu-
merous party.

MR. SA VERY.
-.......---

The Bristol Mercury of Monday contains the follow-
ing:—" We have this week to perform one of those
most painful duties that occasionally devolve on the
public journalist—one which, although executed with
feelings of the bitterest regret, renders his situation
somewhat suspicious, always unenviable. We feel,
most acutely, for those respectable individuals con-
nected with the unhappy subject of our remarks; and
they ate both numerous and most respectable ; it was a
regard for the respectability of their station in society
that induced us last week to suppress what we had but
too much reacon to fear would prove, as it has even-
tually, but too true. Mr. Henry Savery, son of Mr.
Savery, banker, a Gentleman of great respectability,
carried on the business of a sugar-baker in this city a
few years ago, in conjunction with Mr. Bigg, under the
firm of Savery and Bigg, which, we believe, itt the
year 1819, became bankrupt for a considerable
amount. He subsequently, from some family connec-
tion with the proprietor of the late B,istol Observer,
became the printer of that Journal, till he again en—
tered into business as a-sugar-broker, about three years'
ago, in conjunction with his present partner, Mr. Sa-
ward ; and the new firm had obtained considerable
credit and responsibility. To what cause the embar-
rassments of the house, if embarrassed it was, of which
the conduct of Mr. Savery would seem to leave little
doubt, ate to be attributed, we know not; we have
heard of no peculiar acts of extravagance, or unneces-
sary expense or parade of either of the partners ; but
certain it is, that discoveries, consequent on the absence
of Mr. Savery, dangerous to himself, and most ago-
nising to his family, were made. A Meeting of the
Creditors was forthwith convened, and Mr. Saward
was dispatched to London in pursuit of his partiter.—
CHete :lbe Mercury repeats the account of Mr. Sa-
ward's pursuit, which we have already communicatedj
It is currently reported, that the dreadful punishment
that inevitably follows conviction of the crime of for-
, gety, will deter the parties from prosecuting."

The Boston Geteette of yesterday states, that William
Pearson, one of the porters at the Pack-house Quay, had
been missing ever since Friday last, supposed to have
been drowned,

Thursday last, Robert Maydwell was taken before
the Mayor and acting. Magistrates of the borough
of Boston, and underwent a final examination, and was
fully committed to Lincoln Castle, for trial at the next
Assizes, on suspicion of the murders of Frances Smaller,
.and Mary Ann Hattenborough, two children. The
statement of Parker having been apprehended at Yar-
-1 mouth, is not true.

PLYMOUTH, DECEMBER 12.

The duty of the soldiers belonging to the Bth Regi-
ment, now in barracks in the Citadel, has been, since the
fatal storm of the 231:1 ult. considerably increased, in
watching the wrecks, &c. The Officers and men merit
the ,:ianks of every one for their exertions.
The Right Honourable the Earl Mount Edgcumbe
has generously contributed 501. towards the subscrip.
tion raising for alleviating the distress of the inhabi-
tants of Kingsand and Cawsand.
We regret to state that Mr. W. W. Winsford, brother
to Mr. Winsford, of this town, unfortunately met with
an untimely end at Weymouth, his place of residence,
on Tuesday, the 23d ult. during the awful storm of
that day. The following are the particulars of this
melancholy affair :—On the morning of the fatal storm,
the deceased was attracted to the road between the
Esplanade and the row of.houses facing it by the cries
and distresses of a Lady, who resided in a house beyond
the Esplanade, near the turnpike, on the beach, close to
the sea; the waves were breaking with tremendous vio-
lence at and near the house; Mr. Winsford then, with
a perseverance that reflects credit on his humanity,
crossed the narrows and made way to the house, took
the Lady from her perilous situation from her window,
and conveyed her, enveloped in a blanket, to a place of
safety, after which deceased again attempted to return
across for the purpose of bringing away from the Lady's
house an article of value, and which she was desirous of
securing. In this attempt he was unfortunately washed i
off the road by a tremendous wave, and driven with
great violence into what is termed the back.waters; it
was of no avail for any one to attempt to rescue him;
indeed, he was not seen after the fatal wave over-
whelmed him. Notwithstanding the greatest search,
the body was not discovered till last Tuesday. Deceased
has left a wife and two children, who, with a numerous
circle of friends and acquaintance, regret his loss.

HAITIAN REPUBLIC.

The Wesleyan Methodists have, on several occasions,
complained of the treatment their Missionaries have re-
ceived in the island of Hayti, from the Government of
President Boyer. These grievances have been fre-
quently referred to in their publications, and induced
several individuals, deeply interested in the extension of
civil and religious liberty on the one hand, and in the
well-being of the Haytian Republic oa the other, to
address the President on the subject, urging on him the
great importance of conciliating the good opinion of
the religious public, and entreating him to give no
real ground of reprobation to the many and the busy
enemies of negro emancipation. The following is a
translation of the reply which has been forwarded to
Mr. Bowring :

STOCKHOLM, DECEMBER 16.
On the evening of the 12th, a travelling peasant
visited some of his acquaintance in the Peasants' Club,l,
As he was going away, he met on the stairs a stranger,
who gave him an unsealed letter, requesting him to
give it to the Club. The peasant suspecting,no harm,
did as he was desired. The letter was addressed to the
Representatives of Scania, and contained several captious
and revolutionary expressions respecting the • Govern-
ment. The beaver was immediately arrested by the
Police, but no clue has yet been found to discover
the author of the letter. All the Authorities have al-
ready testified to the King and to the Crown Prince,
their attachment and fidelity, and their detestation of
these criminal machinations.

MADRID, DECEMBER 26.

This country is rapidly approaching the brink of ruin
and misery. With a ruined agriculture, an abandone,i
commerce, no manufactures, no industry, no hopes
of rich galeous from America ; how is it possible
to pay soldiers and sailors, and provide for the
other necessary expenses of the State? The very per-
sons employed in the Government Offices are in a state
approaching to misery. Even at the approach of Christ-
mas, when it is almost an act of religion in this conutryto
to be a little more festive than usual, these unfortunate
people were not gratified with any portion of the sala-
ries due to them, so that many of them were obliged, to
furnish forth the Christmas dinner, &c. to pawn, and
some of them to sell their apparel andindclothes. There
is, in fact, nbt a sous in the Treasury, and the vessel of
the State may be said to be at the very point of founder-
ing. The' most clear-sighted and thinking men in vain
look for a gleam of safety. If the present system be per-
sisted in, and if the talent, as yet totally unknown, of
M. Lopez Ballasteros cannot- remedy the predicament
in which we are,l fear much that we must finish by fall-
ing upon acid devouring each other. Indeed, something
like this already takes place, for at five o'clock in the
evening, robberies are openly committed in the streets
of this capital, and that by individuals far above die

Last week it was reported here that the English Con-

For some days we were in painful suspense on this ac-
count. Yesterday we at length received the folios% ing
news by letters from Malta :
" An English vessel, bound from the Greek islands
for Malta, had ou board 80 Greek passengers. A Tu-
nisian frigate stopped this vessel at sea, and demanJcd
that the Greeks should be given up. The English Cap-
tain refused. On this the Tunisian Captain sent a boats
well armed, which took away the Greeks by main force,

" The Eng.r.4l Captain immediately sailed fur Malta.
and gave an account of this affair. A swift sailing ves-
sel was immediately dispatched to Tunii to demand the
release of the Greeks. It was announced that they were
subjects of the Porte; that, consequently, they ought
to be considered as rebels; and that they would not be
given up, because they had already undergone their fate.
We do not know what has become of the English Con-
sul, who zealously interested himself in favour of these
unfortunatepeOple.—A statement of the affair has been
sent to London.
The presents from Denmark to the Dey of Algiers
have already arrived."

Sir THOMAS BARING, Bart. AI.P. in the Chair, .

The following Resolutions were passed unanimously :
Ist. Proposed j:iy Sir ALEXA2<DIR JoHNSTON, and seconded by Ow.

CUDLUIN4, M.P.

" That as the administration of the affairs of the British posses-
sions in Indii 111V0iVe3 the exercise of every function appertaining
to a great and p-:w•erful Empire, it is of essential importance that
pmong the Mcmbers of the Executive Body appointed to regulate
and controul the conduct of the Local Authorities,. there shnuld be
tfound a due proportion of individuals, qualifiskl by employment in
the scvtral Departments of the Public Service in India, for the ef-
ficient discharge of that great and responsible duty."
2nd. Proposed by Joint ItlAarin, Esq. M.P. and seconded by War.

SALT TAX.

Mr. LESTER alluded to this subject at present,
chiefly from what had fallen from an Hon. Member
(Mr. Baring) the other night, who had represented that
the repeal of the Salt Tax would not benefit the country,
He (Mr. Lester) entirely dissented from this opinion.—
It was plainly the object of the salt-dealers to secure a
monopoly ; but it was the interest of the public to get
rid of the tax, and to create competition. That com-
petition would render salt eight times cheaper than
what it now was, and a poor than would then pay only
3d. a-year for what he now paid three or four shillings.
To continue the remnant of the duty was taxing the
poorest of the poor.
Mr..BARING said, that what he had stated on the
Salt Tax merely amounted to this; that he thought the
country would be more benefited by the reduction of
other duties. than by abolishing the small remnant on salt.
Sir I. COFFIN said that the Salt Tax imposed a
duty of 400 per cent. upon the necessaries, of life,
and it bore upon three millions of people who had no-
thing to depend upon but their labour. " I have sat
with cottagers," said the Honourable Baronet, " and
asked them if they felt relief from part of the duty har-.
ing been taken off?" and they answered, we have felt
great relief.' It is a great scandal that this tax should
not be entirely taken off. Who fights the battles of the
country ? It is these poor people who pay for salt ;
therefore let the whole duty be entirely abolished."
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said,
he had received various applications on the subject of
the Salt TAX, but he had not determined on the course
be should pursue.
Mr. WA LLACE moved for the revival of the Select CoMmittee
on Foreign Trade.—Agreed to.
Mr. HUME wished to know from the Right Honourable G9n-
tlematt opposite, whether any sanction had been given by his Ma-
jesty's Government to the Poyais emigration, as there was an office
established in London ? He understood that several emigrants were
about to embark with their all tbr that place.
Mr. WI L MOT-HORTON replied, that these proceedings were
entirely without the sanction of his Majesty's Government.

In a preceding column we have given copious ex-
tracts fr t)m the Fieach and German Papers, on the
affairs of Greece as the details are not altogether to
be depended on, we forbear making any comments:
but it is vet y evident that the advantages have, both by
sea and land, been in favour of the Greeks, and that to
a considerable extent. It appears by an article in one
of the Dutch Paris, received this mottling, that some
retaliatory measures have been adopted at the lonian
Islands, in consequence of the Provisional Government
of Greece refusing to withdraw its memorable Procla-
mation with respect to neutrals. The following is.

Yesterday the Cambrian was towed out of the har-
bour by the Lord Beresford, (G uernsey and Jersey steam-
packet); the crew was immediately paid wages, and
she is now in every respect ready to proceed; she will
sail to-morrow morning, should the wind prove fair or
moderate. His Royal Highness the Duke of Clarence
on Thursday visited the new sloops of war Champion,
Orestes, Pylades, and the Redwing sloop of war, com-
manded by Captain Fitzclarence, lying at Spithead.—
Ye,terday he gave a public breakfast to the Captains
and Offi:ers of the Nrvy, on board his Majesty's yacht
Herald, Captain Leeke ; and this afternoon he inspected
the Royal Nlarine Artillery, on S mthsea Common._

DANISH ASIA iIC COMPANY.

COPENHAGEN, SEPTEMBER Its.
The following is the result of the General Meeting
of the Asiatic Company, held o►l the 23d of this month.
1. A letter from some Jewish proprietors was read,who protested
against the meeting, because it was their New Year's Day, and they
could not attend. No notice was taken of this protest.
2. It was stated, that of the 950 bonds, at 1,000 Dutch florins
which constitute the Dutch debt, 700 had been bought in by the
Company ; that the holders of the other 250 wished to retain them
at 4 per cent. interest, instead of 6 per cent. which has hitherto
been paid. Nothing was stated respecting the 180,000 dollars de-
posited in 1815, with the Dutch Government in Batavia.
3. It was resolved not to undertake any new expedition (the last
having been attended with considerable loss) till more favourable
circumstances should arise.
The claim of the Company on the English Govern-
ment, for the loss sustained at the taking of Serampore,
was stated at 3;338,162 mix dollars.—Hansburgh Paper.

Letters from Scala Nuova, say that the troops which
were at the foot of Mount Mycale, at the Cape called
by the Turks Dib Bournou, have wholly deserted. Part
of them, however, have returned to Scala Nuova.
Thus this army, which had hastened from the remotest
parts of Natolia to ravage Samos, has vanished.
Odysseus is not gone to the Morea, but to Salona,
with a sum which he has received from the Provisional
Government of Greece, to form a camp in that country,
in order to oppose the Mussultnans force that may ad-
vance on that side. It was the intrepid Canaris who,
in the little channel, set fire to the frigate, the corvette,
and two brigs. The European Naval Officers are asto-
nished at the courage and boldness of the Greek mariners.
GLASGOW COTTON•SPININERS.—The cotton-spinners
still hold out and seem determined to persevere in the
same course. So strong is the system of terror, as we
ate informed, established over the minds of those asso-
ciated together, that no individual of the number dare
be seen speaking to any of the clerks and other superior
servants in the employ cf their former masters. This
day they are to have a public meeting on the Green, for
what purpose we have not heard. People are rushing
from all-patts to the spot this forenoon, and we are
much afraid that such assemblies will ultimately end in
mischief. Our Reporter is afraid to go near them, as
last day he made the attempt he was threatened to
be stones!. Thty apply to every class of operatives,
and they will perceive that if they will neither work
nor allots, others to work here, that there are other
countries when work may be carried on, and other
operatives who will thankfully undertake it.—Glasgote-
C iuricr, October 7.
