We have received the French Papers of Tuesday.
The few article, of intelligence which they contain
relate chiefly to the warfare between the Turks and
the Greeks ; and though the details are trifling in
themselves, they ate important in as far as they prove
that the latter continue to combat with vigour and
activity for emancipat:' The most interesting fact
stated is, that an expedition from St. Catherine, in
Thessaly, commanded by Captain DIAMANTI, had
crossed the Gulf of Salonica, and landed at Cassandra
—a town which, it m.ry be recollected, was last year
taken by the Tut ks. Letters from Salonica, dated
the Bth July, state that, on this occasion, the Greeks
suddenly attacked Cassandra, carried the place by
surprise, and put all the Ottoman garrison to the
sword. DIANIANTI has in. since made some demon-
strations against Salonica, that town has been thrown
into a state of alarm, and the Governor, who had
marched to assist CHOC RSCIIID PACIIA, who is block-
aded in Larissa, has hastily returned. At Athens
the Greeks are said to have obtained possession of
very considerable magazines, in consequence of the
surrender of the Acropolis.
In these Papers we find a Convention concluded
between the Government!. of France and Spain, so
late as the end of April last, for paying the debts due
by Spain to the subjects of France. The sum of,
425,000 francs in rentes, representing a capital of
8,500,000, is set aside by the Ft each Government on
certain conditions, for the purpose of indemnifying
its own subjects against their Spanish debtors.
These Papers contain an article under the head of
Augsburg, which furnishes a commentary on the
Russian defence of the Holy Alliance, inserted in the
STAR of yesterday.
Everything, says the Petersburgb Journalist, proves
the existence of a secret organization, which embraces
in its fatal ramifications all Europe! We imagined
this article had been inspired by mere sympathy for
the other branches of the Holy Alliance ; but an ar-
tic* from Augsburg informs us, that the Russian
army on the Turkish frontiers, throughout all its can-
tonments, has been found to swarm not merely with
Carbonari, but with Atheists and Democrats. Whole
divisions have been disbanded, and punishment has
been dealt out with an unsparing hand. The mo-
rality of the Russians never having been very high,
we confess that we should rather have expected to
find thieves than Atheists among these soldiers.—
We were aware that the Russian Priest does not
scruple to get drunk along with a boor or soldier, and
that after being well warmed with liquor, blows are
frequently dealt out to the sacred functionary with
much good will. But notwithstanding these liberties,
we have always understood that the Russians, accord-
ing to their own notions of religion, were a very re-
ligious people, indeed so firm in the faith, that cent,-
ries might pass away before incredulity found its way
to them. We expect next to hear that the Turks have
become Carbonaii, and Atheists and Democrats.

This forenoon we received a Dutch Mail, bringing
Papers to the Ilth instant. An article from Berlin
states, that the Students of the Society of the Arrninio,
who have been proceeded against-, are to be punished
with three months' confinement in a fortress.

The Diet of Zurich have been engaged in dismsing
the overtures made to them by M. Zee, the Envoy
of the Columbian Republic.

It is still affirmed that the citadels of Athens and Na-
poli di Romania, have surrendered to the Greeks.

Charle,ton Papers arrived this morning to the 10th
of July. From the Parer ok. the 9th
" The United States' schooner Grampus arrived here yester-
day, from a successful cruize of three months, on the north side
of Cuba, against the pirates. Notwithstanding the great exer-
tions made to destroy these villains, enemies of all nations, they
still continue to commit depredotions on commerce, and are par-
ticularly incensed against the Americans : they arc seldom from
their lurking plac::4, except tvls.'n some nierchant-vessel happens
to pass in sight of them; anu •I•ei [Live a chain of commuMea-

THE ICING'S VISIT TO SCOTLAND.
0.0•••••••1••••
We are sorry that we canna yet announce the ar-
rival of his:WA/arra bt Edinburgh, owing to contrary
winds which have impeded the progress of the Royal
squadron. We yesterday stated that the Hottal.
rGEORGE yacht was met of Flamborough Head on
Monday at one o'clock ; towards the evening thew and
shifted to the west and blew a gale, which consider-
ably increased on the Royal squadron passing Ber-
wick-upon-Tweed that night. The ships, however,
ventured to go onwards; but it coming on to blow
extremely fresh, it was deemed prudent by the Com-
mander to put about, and make the best of his way
back to that harbour. The squadron remained there
the whole of the day. His MAJESTY did not land.
This unexpected occurrence had caused great bustle
in the town and the neighbourhood, and, as might
naturally be supposed, great delight to the inhabit-
ants, who were flocking from all quarters, to embark
in boats, to have the pleasure of seeing their KING.
His MAJESTY was in excellent health and spirits, and
appeared to be highly delighted with the enthusias-
tic reception he had .met with in that part of his
dominions.

The steam packets availed themselves of the acci-
dental circumstance to take in a fresh supply of coals,
and the ships generally were making an addition to
their stock of provisions. It was expected that the
squadron would get under weigh on Wednesday
morning early, and that his MAJESTY would arrive
in Leith on Wednesday, in the middle of the day.—
At nine o'clock on Tuesday, the Royal squadron was
still in the harbour of Berwick. His MAJESTY was.
in excellent health, and no accident had occurred,
though the concourse of people, passing to and from
the town to the squadron, had been very great during
the whLle of the day.
During his MAJESTY'S voyage all along the coast,
the most enthusiastic affection prevailed among all
ranks of people. Whenever the squadron approached
near enough to any town or village, every boat put
off with well dressed visitors to salute his MAJESTY;
in many instances the ROYAL GEORGE was completely
surrounded and beset by boat-loads of people eager
to chew their attachment. The KING, in his usual
kind manner, returned by bows and smiles the joyous
greetings of his visitors. At Scarborough, the MAYOR,
in his robes, with the Corporation, put off in a boat
with an Address to his MAJESTY, but as the ROYAL
GEORGE was going along with great velocity, the
Address was obliged to be handed up alongside, at-
tached to the end of a long stick. The circumstance,
however, caused some little merriment among the
sailors. There were great numbers of boats put off
at the same time from Scarborough, filled with the
respectable people of the town, as well as with its
fashionable visitants.
