ZANTE JULY 5.

Aitniral Manila, who was observing the Egyptian fleet at
3ucia, learning that the 2d division, under Sachtury, was going to
attack the Capt. Pacha near Andros, hastened to cooperate in this
dzdsive engagement, but Sacbtury had already accomplished this'
task. Topal Pacba bad lied, and his Sect was dispersed in the
greatest *disorder. Miaulis, meeting near Milos 27 vessels of slit-
frrent sizes, which were retreating, he attacked them with Ms
usual ardour—took twelve, and pursued the rest into the port of
.;:ada : the two Greek divisions cruised before that harbour till the
231 of June, watching all the motions of the enemy, who was
coieavouring to repair his ships. On that day the two combined
fwets appeared at the mouth of the harbour of Suds, having on
11.sard 3000 Egyptians. whom they were to land at Modon, to
rtinfarce the army of Ibrahim Paella. The enemy's vessels were
only a few leagues from the port, when the Greeks attacked them
vigorously, and launched their fire•ships.
The enemy made but a feeble resistance to this attack, and after
I•a•:ing lost a corvette of 32 guns, and put of hisibips,Vut back, and
hastated to regain the harbour of Soda.

The last letters from the Peioponessus assert that Ibrahim
Pasha, after the defeat which he experienced near Tripelixsa, is
s-rrounded on all sides by above 20,000 Greeks. It is certain that
Captain Coliopoulo, after having destroyed the Egyptian columns
♦which had entered Arcadia, is advancing rapidly along the seacoast,
upon its road to lelodon.

This forenoon we received German Papers to the
33th. instant. One of them, the Nuremberg Corres-
pondent, contains some conjectures on the formation of
the catiip in the South of France, very similar to those which have
appeaied in some of Our own Journals. Deprecating, as we did, and
must dp, the invasion of Spain by France, and acknowledging that
the continhefi occupation of the country is a continuance of the
original aggression, yet it cannot be denied but, that on the score
of humanity. it has been useful in restraining the various factions
from touring each other to'pleces. We confess we have no fears
as to the new French camp, for crippled as France is in her finan-
cial operations. she must be anxious to relieve herself from the
bUrden of expense which the occupation of Spain entails on her is
soon as it can be dune with safety. from that imaginary danger she
dreaded vilien Spain was invaded. The following is the article to
wticb we have alluded :
NUREIO3t7R9, JULY 26.
A latter from the Banks of the Uhl*. 17th July, has the fol.
lowing. observations
" novels the assembly of the troops in the departments of the
Last and Wesi Pyrenees, is represented at Pbris as nothing bui an
ordinary edlitary arrangement for the increase and inspection of tl:e
Regiments, it is certain that It is looked urc4: in a %try different


!:4Lt iu Vat: departments. The ntinber of these troop
will be more cor.aidariale than was at first
,stated. Inspectors are
ir.deed ecpected, who are to superintend the flevielys ; but when
these are over, the troops wit still remain in theirincainpments, and
be placed in such a state of
.preparailons that they will be able to
march at the first order. •
" Th;s order is of course dependent on the turn which the affairs of
Spain may take; but if we consider the state of that country as it
is represented, both in letters and verbal accounts of persons coming
from it, we must be convinced that our Government acts with
great wisdoms in assembling this corps. All the accounts thew the
progress of the intrigues carrying on, which will probably be fol-
lowed by sonic severe measures. The Spanish Ultras will not
renounce the preponderance of which it is intended to deprive them,
but will maintain it by every means in their power. This is the
real state of the case. The Ultra party is endeavouring to overthrow
the hlinistry and its new system, and thinks to effect it by employ-
ing the means It has at command. A civil war is, therefore, con-
sidered to be almost inevitable. Should things cone to this, the
French army in Spain must be reinforced, and this is the reason
for the assembling of the troops."

The Paris Papers of Tuesday contain a Royal Or-
do.,nance for carrying into effect a former Ordonnanee
relative to the conversion of the five per cents. For this
purpose, the present Ordonnance directs the appoint.
ment of a Commission, charged to declare the number
and amount the inscriptions of five per cent. Reates.
tl:e conversion of which into three per cents. shall have
been called for at the date of the sth of August. On hat
day, at midnight, the Crimmissioners are directed to
close the registratir n of the assents to the co-iversion.
A letter !rom Paris states, that the French Government
has agreed to recognize the independence of St. Do.
ming°, and that Captain MACHA uvr. the commander
of a ship of war, has sailed with a treaty, whirl] SOIL
be returned ratified *by the Pre.ident BOYER. 1.01
Hay tian Republic pays, it is said, a very large sum 'for
this recognition.
Thar QuWidienne publishes a long private letter from Madrid,,
dated July nt, which states that Messrs. Zct and Cotostratax con '
tinued to balance each other in the Kasio's fayour;—that all efforts
at raising loans bad proved ineffectual; and that ruinous modes of
g the Treasury had been adopted. Amongst these the follow
ing is given as an example :—" A license has just been granted 'to
one Gamut, contractor for the bull tights and a dealer in oxen, for
t be sum of ten millions of teals, four in money arid six in bills of ei-
c bange on himself, authorising him to import into Spain in foreign
v curls, six hundred tons of English manufactured cotton goods.
free of. duty. It is estimated that Gavtatr► and his aseoefates (sup-
posed to be three in number), will gain ten millions each." Many
complaints are also made of the preference given to English Traders
and Contractors over those of other nations ; and a hint is added,
that the object of the troops assembled on the French frontiers
is to strengthen tie party of Mr. Za►, and to secure Its ulti•
maze triumph.

The following on the subject of the Renter, is from
the Pilote of Monday

PARIS, AUGUST 1.

If the holders of Resin consulting their own interest, have eon.
sented to a voluntary conversion,the speculators have changed theisi
sy.tem, and instead of speculating for a fall, now take anothei
direction. The Government on their part by procuring a great rls.,
lief to the taxes, have felt the impulse of public °pink&
Last year, when they were prepared fur the reimbursement, the
law of reduction was rejected. One of the motives for which was,
the speculation which this measure would occasion. The Govern.
mint this 7sar has Proposed a voluntary. eommesion at the Remise.
which is defeated by the enemies of our national prosperity; and h
will be obliged to borrow for the reimbursement; but the owed..

Lion say that the redemption is impossible ; ovr reply is, that the
funds to put it in force are ready.

The Syndic of the Receivers.f3eneral have a capital of SO mil-
lions ready to assist the holders of Rents,. Admitting a difference
of five per cent. the Syndic can put at once into action a capital of
600 millions, and thus prevent all chance of failure of the plans of
Government.

His Royal Highness the Duke of Yortz entertained a

vili m,
Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, the Duke and Duchess of
Rutland, Mrs. L. Fox, Major Bulkelay, :largo's of Worcester, Sir

companied by the Duke of Rost.aun and Major BULIELIT, drove
in his Royal Highness's barouche to the Course ; on horseback
followed Colonel Rossr.it., Mr. Duticoseas, Mr. Anson, Etc.
In addition to this party, several fashionables were invited as the
day of the Race for the Cup, to have the honour of dining at the

Mr. Ram, and the Comte de Vomits.
His Royal Highness the Duke of Yost has given Majw. Bost
LIT (of his own Regiment, the Grenadier Guards) a Staff Appoint-
ment in the Southern District.

A Mreting of the New Catholic Association was held
at the Corn Exchange, Dublin, on Saturday, Counsellor O'Batxx in
the Chair. Mr. ts'ltatwr la giving notice of a motion for appoint•
hat two persons in every parish, to collect subscrlpsiosa, and com-
municate observations to the Association, said, it was the'opinion of
every Lawyer in England that such a course was perfectly legal.
It was stated that the Association now consisted of
_l5l Members.

Saturday, a man fell into the Liffey at full tide, and
was on the point of sinking, when a Gentleman, 'named Oann,
leaped in and supported the exhausted man until a boat arrived to
his assistance.

Friday nmrning a duel took place in the neighbour-
hood of Killarney, between Mr. CRUM!' of Limerick, and Mr.
BALDWIN, of the county of Cork, when, after an exchange of two
shots each, the matter was amicably adjusted.
The Calendar at Cork contains a list of 145 pri-
soners for trial, of whom 23 are for murder, 12 for house-burning,
and nine for rape. The Calendar is the heaviest throughout all
Ireland, and well, indeed, it may be.
This morning, as Captain Tortano, the Acting Ad-
jutant to the 3cl Battalion of the Ist Regiment of Foot Guards,
mounted on a beautiful bay charger, was riding in front of the.
Battalion, on parade on the Mall in St. James's link, the animal
bolted at full speed, and all attempts on the part of Capt. Mizzen
to stop him proved useless, as, owing to his accoutrements. 'he
could not use much power ever him. The horse ran up into the
corner of the Treasury, then past the Horse Guards, and through
the line of soldiers who formed the tilt guard; here the men, for
safety, Bed in all directions, and the horse continued his course
towards the gun near the back part of Carlton Palace, and where
one of the Bth Dragoons seised the botse's bridle, and stopped him.
What is most extraordinary the animal had been code by the Cap-
tain on field days, and never started before, although in the midst
of bring.
It appears that the estate of the late Banking House
of. the late Lord Nawnoustr, in Dublin, will be fully
adequate to the_payment of all demands on the house,
and leave a considerable surplus.
A letter from Naples, in the Constitution:ld, says,
that it is expected a general amnesty will be published
there on the arrival of the King. The renewal of the
convention for the conribuance of the Austrian army of
occupation had created great dissatisfaction. •
