We hale deemed it necessary to turn to this me-
.movable declaration of the fixed principles of the
Holy Alliance; in order to chew what the English
Representative will have to sanction or oppose. That
an English Government can iven countenance them
would at one time have been thought impossible,
for they are 'at variance with the principles which
seated the House of Hanover on the Throne of these
Realms, and are in direct hostility to these principles
of reason, and policy which have been hitherto sup-
posed so bind nations and communities together.
The Sovereigns of the Holy Alliance (or as the
Wrench, by a happy anagram, call it, La Salida Ca-
wills), tell us that they have net 44 the slightest dis-
psitioo to oppose real ameliorations, or the reform

Tfie Allied Sovereigns are now about to meet, to
pursue that system they have so daringly avowed.

ness of the Government pf England, and the fears of
that of France, that will prevent them from making
the attempt-1 though, make it when they will, we are
not fearful of the issue, and are confident that the
very principles they endeavour to put down, will
soon triumph over all the attempts of despotism.

The French Papers of Saturday have reached us.
Their contents are tytorwraried than usual,.though
the trials for conspiracif still occupy a large portion
of their columns. The Sitting of the Court of Assizes
at Poitiers of the sth instant, was devoted to hearing
die speech of the PAOCUREUR-GENERAL, that is, the
Public Prosecutor, who, not content with labouring
to fix the char,:e of conspiracy on the accused,
endeavoured to involve in it also Messrs. LAFITTE,
BENJAMIN CONSTANT, FOY, MANUEL, VOYEE d'Art-
OiNSON, and LAFAyETTE, but particularly the latter.
He observed, that the material fact against the Mar.
quls de la FAYETTE was the presentation to him of
BAUD/MI.BT by GRANDMENIL. This, however, be-
longed to the second plot—" But I know it may be
said by induction, that if the Marquis de la FAYETTE
is an accomplice of the second plot, he is equally so
of the first, because' the elements of the two conspi-
racies are the same, and the principal agents are the
saw, namely—Berton and Grandmenil. But this is
only a moral proof. Material proofs against the first
instigators of the plot are wanting. Why ? Not be-
cause they are innocent, but because they conceal
themselves behind their Seydes—because they en-
velope themselves in mystery—because they corres-
pond verbally—but the disclosures of their agents
sometimes betray them."
Accounts from Poitiers, of the 4th inst. stae, that
Colonel Aux has been suddenly seized with insanity,
occasioned by the following affecting incident :
Mad. Aux, who is at Poitiers, goes every day to
visit him, and, by a piece of forgetfulness on the
part of the jailer, was with him when the carriage
arrived to conduct the prisoners to the Court. Co-
lonel Aux was called, and went down, but his young
daughter threw herself about him, accompanied him
down stairs, and exclaimed as he mounted in the car-
riage, " Oh I my father, what a wretched carriage!
Where are you going ? You had better stay with
us." These innocent accents went to his heart, a
flood of tenderness overpowered his mind in a mo-
ment, and he has not since recovered his reason.—
Nevertheless he was conducted into Court—his wan-
dering eyes are the only sign he has yet given of his
miserable state; but it may be every moment feared
that he will disturb the proceedings of the Court, in a
manner Which will produce different effects on the
persons who are present.
They write from Strasburg, that the affair of MM.
CASON and ROOEX u referred to a Council of War on
the 18th of this month. Col. CASON is to be defended

An English frigate has entered into the port of

that forty Greek vessels of war were approaching for
the purpose of bombarding it. Travellers who arrive
from Larissa state that Mehemet, the Bey of Castori,
a man equally respected by Christians and by Turks,
has been made prisoner by the Greeks. The Bishop
of Castori has given strong testimony of his generous

(ONNR, SEPTRMItEIt s.
Spain, as we have already intimated,
alarming appearance. The measures
etettlisHieneral Espinosa, in the sth Military,
Division, which comprehends the ptOvintes of nia
vasre, Guipuscoa,and Biscay, are Cahoot being con-
ciliatory, and will probably not have the result that
is expected from them ; for how can parents, itsar=
dians, and masters be made responsible, not only for
the presence of the young men in the bands, in case
they do not return to their homes, but even for the
excesses which they may commit under the standards
of rebellion ? This General has adopted several mex.
ores of the same nature, which may end in eras_
rating people's minds, and consequently increa,e
the bands of the discontented, though the ardent Li-
berals expected the happiest effects from them.
In the last war with the French, their tyranny, the
enormous contributions which they levied, and the
assassinations, under the form of judicial proceedings
and trials by Court-Martial, far from intimidating
the inhabitants, ended in making them resolve to
gait their homes.
The state of things in Spain is nearly the samr.
The Political Chiefs, influenced by the liberal party,
cannot avoid acting arbitrarily. The Military Com-
manders, destitute of pecuniary resources from the
Government, and having in their hands discretionary
power, only seek pretexts for levying fines, contri-
butions, &-c. on the inhabitants. We are well aware,
from history, that the Spanish character, naturally
proud and revengeful, and, besides, little accustomed
to such harassing treatment, will not endure it. The
Spaniard, poor, and little attached to his abode, sets
Ere, if necessary, to his dwelling, in such a case,
and takes, the field, with his muzket on his shoulder
and his segar in his mouth.
If we consider the arbitrary acts of which the zea-
lous Liberals begin to be guilty, in tearing, by vio-
lence and terror, a great number of individuals from
the bosom of their families, as has been done at Bil-
boa and St. Andero, we must conclude that the mo-
ment of the cruel revolution, so desired by the ex-
alted Patriots, is at length arrived. The consequences
will be very fatal and disastrous. The Liberals be-
lieve that the time of their triumph, and that all
will yield to terror. Their adversaries, on the other
hand, have never conceived such flattering hopes as
now, and the fact is, that their cause does iv istro-
grade, especially in Catalonia, where they have 20,000
' men under arms; and if we may give credit to infor-
mation which we receive from good authority, rireir
new effort will hardly give their enemies time to put
themselves in a condition to resist the attacks of
every kind to which they are going to be expued.

This forenoon we received German Papers of a
recent date. They confirm the account of the
struction of a quarter of that unfortu-
nate city is reduced to ashes. Although it is gene-
rally believed that the Ja..issmie,, ‘‘ho had returned
to Jassy, were the authors of the fire, )e s. me at-
ribute it to accident.—The following are extracts:

FRANKFORT, SEPTEMBER 2.

Scio contained about 120,000 individuals. By the
census lately made by the Pacha, theielernaine in
the whole island only about 900 persons, and the
contagion threatens to carry them all off. On the
?8d July, there remained 1.50 persons in the Consu-
late of France, but twenty of them died daily. The
dead were no longer buried in the city, but thrown
pell-mell into a ruined Greek church, near the French
Consulate. Almost the whole population of the
Mastic villages has emigrated : in some there remain
only a few old women. A Firman of the Sultan has
been received at Scio, which formally declares that
all the Greeks who are at Scio, and those who shall
return thither, are not only free, but are fully au-
thorised to take immediate possession of their lands
and property. Alas! Scio will soon be only a se•
pulchre, and in this field of death the Imperial
bounty will hardly find a few wretches to whom it
can lend a supporting hand.
The epidemic seems daily to become more malig-
nant. Ten piastres must be paid for removing a
dead body ; for the man who consents to perform
this office is generally seized with the disorder the
following day. The Pacha himself is at present ill.
The crap of mastic, corn, and grapes was never
more abundant. It has been necessary to send 600
Greeks from Chesme to labour in these deserted fields,
where nature has been as liberal and bountiful as
man has been barbarous.

The Egyptian and Barbary flotitlla has Captured
eleven small Greek vessels, and brought them
into the port of Scio. The Captains only have
been put to death : the crews are prisoners, and have
been put in irons. (Here follows the account of what
happened at Athens at the time of the capitulation,
and of the conduct of the French.)--A part of the
Greeks of Athens have fled to Salamis and Zea ; the
others have shut themselves up in the citadel. On
the 18th of July it was said that the Turks were only
four leagues from Athens.
