Transladen of a letter written by the Treasurer:Ge•:
heral of Spain to M. Louis Oneshard, Banker, at Paris:
Missal, -Duwars 22, 18=
The Conansini oner sent by hit Majesty to your. Capital
to Slake asiangements with you relatively to tke.goyal
Loan with which You are charged, has informect Me of
the maneavres by means of.which, on the announce-
ment of the change of our Ministry, the Bonds. of the
Revolutionary-Government obtained fresh credit. This,
operation,.,adfilitly.elirected by a neighbouring Govern-
ment, and prepared beforehand by -means of couriers.,
deceived those imprudent persons who purchased a
qearitity of that paper; because they did not understand
the firmness of the SPanish character or •that of OW
1 august Monarch. -.-
;His Majesty*. who exists only for his people, has by
his Deflate of. the Ist .of October fixed the lot of the
lieariaAfthe. liabellion. - The King was convinced that
tp recognise them would expose the nation to the r.-..st 1
lament4ble consequences, and that it would be buying,
his dishonour and his ruin, by the vi,lation of a princi-
ple conservative of all Thrones, to recognise the politi-
cal and administrative alas of tholterolutionists.. This
principle is consecrated, and all the Sovereigns of Eu-
rope have happily adbpted it ; i•inhe the contrary princi-
ple would have for its -result the authorisation of revolt.
The principles reoognised by the Monarchs• are the
basis *df their iustractions ,in the missions• which. they
give to their servants; hutthe latter, sometimes yielding
to calculations of interest, abuse the confidence reposed
in them by their misters. 'Hence came the terrible at-
tacks which the Ministry just removed from Office had
to undergo; for even those who-ought to have main-
tained the conservative principles sheaved; that. though
they could not directly attack those principles.,withoat
renouncing the most salutary maxims of the,,genettaL
restoration, they nevertheess attempted in-swift 'poet-
ble manner to carry them by surprise: • '" • •
-In fine, my friend, the late change or Ministry can-

The following comments on the IVlessae of the Pte;:
sidenrof the llorad•States, appear ian French Peffee
of SandayAlr
• . a PARIS. 3ANII4aIr 3.
"The English Pacers are full of commentaries on the
Message of the President of the United-States. ' Every
one considers it according to his political vievrsand pri-
rater inclinations r .butthe factis, this long cledlaration
pleases and agrees with no one., t It has not ogee escaped
sharp censures on the part ofthe .Atoetic.an-Papers.
" Mr. Monroe, who is not a sovereigns wbo.bas him-
self told us that be is only the first delegate of the peo-
ple, has taken in 'his Message the tone Of a powerful
Monarch, whose armies and fleets are.reidi-to go forth
no the first signal. •He does more ;. he prescribes to the
Potentares,of Europe the conduct they are to pursuein
,certain circumstances, if .they. do not wish to incur his
disgrace. Such is. the .prohibition which he issues
agaiost their ever thinking of any new Colonization in
the two Americas.
Ms. Monroe is the temporary'President of a Repub-
lic, situated on the eastern coast of North America. This
Republic is bounded on the south by the possessions of
the King of Spain, and on the notth by those of the
King of England. Its ,independence has only been
acknowledged for forty years; by what title then are
the two Americas to be under his immediate depend.
ence, from Hudson's . Bay to Cape Horn? What cla-
mours did he not raise tti the United States, when the
Emperor of Russia wished.to trace the demarcation of
the part of territory which he claims on the tbrth-tast
coast, as discovered by his subjects! . This Monarch,
hoyfetrer, did not presume todictate laws to any of the
States who haze establishments on:the same coast. 1r
was reserved for Mr. Monroe to shew us a dictator;
armed with right' of superiority over the whole bf
the New World. •
According to the political system be would establish!,
it would not be .peranittedtto:Spaintissnake . the. West

And. yet .Mr: Monroe% Meitige'Cohiains phrases inch-

Powers of Europe l• But what is that Power which pro-
fesses so proudly maxims.oppoied to she tights of soya:,

In Brechin, last Tuesday sennight, a countryman of
portly appearance, well known in the place, having -
taken, in his usual way, a glav ton much, was under
the .necessity; in gals: 4' ; between• public-house doors, of
supporting himself by the wall, when a wag accosted
him=tir 41. y e, John,'the drap drink niuks some foak-rfat,
but it.seems. to male you lean." "Me leinl" said the
swill-bowl. 01 Yes,' replied the other, "it maks yon
kas against the vra'." .

selected as Affording situations of the most piquant kind, which are
each illustrated by al engriving from that artist's, designs, and fre-
quently a wodd-cut in addition, as a tail-pkce. Considering' the
necessary limitation‘-that the &dries, in order to fistiabh4poistte
for the Artist, w. should be ehoten.with a vitto the humorous• in
aStaation, and not in narrative, the selection. is very joditioady
made. The reprint of, the 'Ja.ly 47eggar?, of Barns, a piece quite
'unknown to the Public, having beeri excluded by a ridiCulous had-

,ZAKARSAKS 41+1,D, TOE TURICS.
Bottle dtrubtt hate been thrown upon he naral ad-
vantages recently stated to have beeh obtained over thbir
oppressors, by the Greeks. They are totally remove,'
by she last arrivals. The Turkish fleet has been obliged,
not merely to take refuge in the Dardanelles, but to lay .
itself up for repair at Constantinople. It is stated that
the Turks have been compelled to raise the siege of Mts.
solonglii. If this be the fact, it would have a power-
ful influence over the issue of the war. It would decide
the inhabitants of Acarnania and Albania in favour of
the Greeks. It is not merely the immediate aspect of
the war that renders the success of the insurgents
probable, but the state of, embarrassment and con-
tusion to which the Turkish Goverucnent is reduced.
llts financial distress is without parallel, and the usual
clumsy expedient of s.dulterating the currency, has been
resorted to. Ile consequence is, thin those who are pm-
seised %/golden. silver, have secreted their treasure, and
that commerce is completely at a stand. To think .022
prosecuting the_ war agaiust the Greeks, under such
circumstances, would be nugatory. Accordingly an
extraordinary meeting of the-Divan had taken place -to
Consider of the affairs of Greece. The result it lusted
to have been the resolution to propose an Amnesty to.
the. Greeks,. and place them under native Governors,-
like these of the Walachian and Moldavian provinces.
It is not at all unlikely, that this offer may be supported
by• Russian influence. The Emperor Alexander would
no doubt assume the rime character-of mediator and
protector, which the Porte has already had the folly to
concede iu the above-named provinces, and which is
the first step in-his project of ultimately possessing him.
self of those provinces and of .Greece.* But there is no.
great probability that the Greeks would listen to any
overture short of their independence. 'One-only petit
may 'be apprehended, it is that some of the more am-
bitious Greek Chiefs may be influenced by offers otbeing
appointed Qoveruors under the new arrangements.
A letter has been received from Solarium, dated oti
the sth of November, enclosing a copy of one front the
Greek Admiral, dated on board his ship the Miaully; bn
the .Ist of o,:tober. It confirms the defeat of the Turkish
fleet in the last week of September, in which the Greek.,
hid found an opportunity to attack in separate divisibni
with their fire-ships. The naval power of the Captain
Patha is thus accounted for:-11 Turkish shipi, were
destroyed, one frigate of 24 guns was.captured, 16 were
at that period blockaded in the Gulph of Vohs, and the
remainder had fled in..great confusion for the Darda-
nelles, where they are kkown to have arrived.
I.lli*Dita, NOVEMBEIt 7.
Early in October, the Turkish fleet entered the Gulf of
Salonica, and, after provisioning there, to succour Negrb-
pont, proceeded towards the Canal of Euri pus. But, ore
reaching Sciathos, the CaptainPacii a landed some trnop2
with the i tention of making himself master of it. Though
smalli.Sciathos is, by its position, the key of the Gulf,f,.
and governs, on one side, Tr ikeri and Bolos, and West°•
pont on the other. By takirag.possession of it, the Turk?
ish Admiral desired to relieve Salonicsi of a nember,nf
small Greek vessels which blockade this city. and inter-
rupt the trade of the Gulf. Thisisland vets their retreat.
Wise-Greek fleet; consisting of-the 1-qtrad rolls from Idle
and-ipsara, left Scopelos, surprised the Captain Pacha,
as.- he was still* disembarking troops, and an actiod
took place between the island and the Canal of .Negro,
pont, which lasted five hours. The Turkish fleet was
mach damaged, and took refuge in the Gult of Volos,
mg, profiting by the darkness of the night, took to flight
towards the Dardanelles. Five brigs and a corn cue of
26 guns fell into the hands of the Greeks. The Turks
lost five othervessets of different sizel one of these ves-
seli Wis burnt, and four others Were lost on the coast.
AdMiral Miaoulis displayed 'great courage and ability.
Captain's Zamados, Ghionis, Sant-stir-is,. and Zacas; dis-
tipguished themselves particirlaety. The victors found
, forty. captured Greek families on board the corvette, who
were to be carried to Constantinople as slaves,- and 02
harems belonging to distinguished Turks. The eap-
tured vessels were immediately sent to Syr a to:sell the
provisions, of which they contained a large quantity.
—The Turkish troops disembarked at Sciathos were
cut to pieces by the Greeks. Such are the principal
facts detailed in the official reports which our Admi-
ralty have received from the fleet. A second expedi-
tion of ten Hydra vessels and fire Spezzia vessels are
ready to-set sail for Missolonghi. The squadron of
Mahomed Art Pasha of tgy pt, in retro ring from -tile
neighbourhood of Candia, attacked the little island of
Casos. All its efforts were, however, vain—after an
obstinate combat of eleven hours, it was obliged to re-
tire with loss.
