General SsiVift is respectfully requested to receive a Cross, sa-
cred to the cause of the Greeks, and dispose of it in any manner
• the gallant and patriotic Gerteral may think proper.
6 May the Grecian Cross be planted from village to village, and
from steeple to steeply, until it rests on the dome of St. SoplEa.'
" it is' we understand, to be. planted on the ilrooklyn
heights, facing the city. Its elevation, however, is de-
layed until the Committee who have it in charge can
ascertain of what material the Grecian wreath of victory
was composed, as they desire to mount the Cross with
such an one. We are authorised to state, that a' Golden
Token' will be presented to any Grecian' who will fur-
nish requisite information on this subject."
Another New York Paper, the Advertiser, gives the
following account of the rearing of the Cross:
Last evening we witnessed the interesting ceremony
of tearing a Cross ou the heights of Brooklyn, dedicated
by the Lidies of .New York to the cause of the Greeks.
It measured about twenty feet, with the following in-
set iption Sacred to the cause of the Greeks,' and
was left to the disposal of General Swift, who gallantly
planted it, in the presence cf several Ladies and Gen-
tlemen, at the bottom cf his garden, in a conspicuous
situation fronting this city. After it had been securely
fixed, the General stepped forward and observed to his
fellow-citizens there assembled, that it was natural for
free Americans to rej:,ice in every aspiration for, and
prospect of enmucipation to the Greeks—to rejoice in
the hope that they might have strength to break those
chains of the benighted Turk, which had fur cc:unties
enthralled the descendants of Ai istides, Solon, and Era-
minondas—that it was doubly gi Allying to know that
our mothers, daughters, and sisters, are foremost in
uniting in the noble senti,i.ent of which this Cross is a
*token and an emblem—' Sacred to the cause of the
Greeks. "Those fair associates have honoured me with
a request to erect this Cross on these clas,.ic heiehts. It
is elected—the inscription, Tae cause of Greece,"
must warm every grateful beh,lder. The name cf
Greece cannot but arouse grateful sensations in the
bteast of every civilized being v.-ho oronounces it; for
to Greece the world is indebted for those examples and
precepts which have shed light upon the human mind,
and led on to fieedom. This Cross is the insignia of
Grecian devotion to Cron and their country. May
that devotion continue until the Turk is conquered, and
Greece is flee. %Vine was then introduced from the Ge-
neral's house, when the following sentiment was drank
with enthusiasm May the Grecian'Cross be planted
from village to village, and from stee,de to steeple, until
it rests on the dome of St. S.iphia." This was followed
by tie ee cheers ; after which Dr. Mitchell advanced and
delivered a neat and appropriate address.

BRAZIL.

MARANIIAIL JULY 2. 1 .

On the 11th instant, three Portuguese ships arrived
here from Lisbon, with accounts of the dissolution of
the Cortes, and of the Royal party having once. more
got into power. These advices caused a great sensation'
amongst the Conjaitutionalists here, and it was deter-
mined on declating for independence oil the 1441,
on which day the greater part of the respectable inha-
bitants met, with every pr,tpect of the ceremony being
got over without the least opposition, and a new Go-.
veroment appointed, to have been composed enti ely of
Brazilians. They had but just
,got together, and %%ere
proceejing in the necessary asr.si.g:2:nents, when eight
• Portuguese vessels appeared off the port, consisting of
a ship, a hi ig, a schooner, and five susnacas ; and it was
soon known that they were from Bahia, and that Ma-
deira, from the want of provisions, had been necessitated
'to abandon said city; the Junta consequently broke up
without accomplishing the object of their meeting.
The vessels arrived, when it was ascertained that they
only brought about two hundred soldiers. It was, how-
ever, reported that vessels with from two to 3000 mess
• had been ordered to proceed to this port : this, be
pleased to observe, occurred un the 14th instant, and "
Madeira,: with his troops and upwards of 100 sail of
shipping, left Bahia on the 2d inst.and up to this date
no snore vessels have arrived here with troops; and it
is now the current opinion that no more are coming,
and that Madeira has proceeded with them to Porto-
' gal ; and negociations are going forward here, with a
view to accommodate matters with the Brazilians ; and
by the first direct conveyance we trust that it will he in
our power to acquaint you of the communication 'with
the interior having been opened. Two of our pr►ncipal
merchants are to proceed to Itapicaru tomorrow morn-
ing, to arrange matters with he liraz;lians,

MADRID, SEPTEMBER ec

The delivering up of General Riego tp eie Regency
is a great triumph for the Royalists. In the delirium
of their joy on the occasion they hesitate not to say
publicly, that if the French had not done so,.they (the
Royalists) had taken measures to secure their o!.ject
by force.—lf the mere intelligenCe of his being. taken
has excited the populace to excesses, what wirlit riot-fie
when he arrives here? Whatever bled' may be spilled
upon this occasion, and whatever deplorable- oon.e-
quences may follow, must in strict justice be laid at. the
doer of him who has given occasion to diem, by deli•
vering up" Ite:p to those whoare drirstiogfor hilbfobd.
Expresi las of the most savage impateme for the ri. '
