PAPERS RELATING TO GREECE.

Annex 1. to the Protocol, No. 1. of the Conference of the 30th of
February, 1830.

Instructions to the Residents of the three Courts of Greece, respect-
ing the Protocol of the 3d of February, 1830.

Nis—The Protocol of which I inclose to you a copy, explains
tie motive, and indicates the nature, of the Resolutions which the
t 'A:lnference of London has judged it proper, under the present state
of affairs, to adopt, in pursuance of the declarations of the Ottoman
Porte.

The Plenipotentiaries of the three Courts of Constantinople have
been instructed to communicate to the Porte the provisions of the
Protocol which determine the future state of Greece, its limits, and
its relations with the Ottoman Empire.

The Resident. of the three Courts in Greece will make a like nom.
munication to the Greek Government.

The considerations which justify the definitive arrangement which
the Alliance has adopted, are numerous and obvious.
You will have no difficulty in showing, by a reference to facts,
that Greece owes her existence to the succours of every kind which
the three powers have lavished upon her ; that they have effected
her deliverance, have taken her under their immediate protection,
and have saved her from inevitable ruin: that on these grounds
they consider that they have a right to expect from her an entire
deference to their decisions; that, moreover, in the arrangements
agreed upon, they have completed the insular system of Greece, and
secured to her the possession of all those territories which either
were endeared to her by recollections of the past, or might be im-
portant to her from their geographical position ; that, above all,
by granting to her complete independence, and by liberating her
from all burthensome conditions. they have fulfilled her most ardent
wishes, have more than realised the hopes which she was entitled to
entertain, have encouraged the growth of her prosperity, and pro-
vided for the security of her commerce.
The choice also of the Prince who is to assume the government
of Greece affords her every guarantee of the order and internal re-
pose of which she stands in need, as well as the means of organising
her institutions, comformably to those salutary principles which as.
sure the happiness of states.
You will join with your colleagues of France and Rus-
sia in impressing these truths upon the conviction of the
Greek government, and you will act in concert with them in
promoting the prompt and scrupulous execution of those stipule-
tions of the protocol which direct the publication of an amnesty,
and the evacuation by the Greek naval and military forces of
all the territories, places, and islands, which are not to form
part of Greece, and which provide for the security of the persons
and the property of the Blussultnans who may remain in the
new state.

Protocol, No. 2, of the Conference held at the Foreign °Moe, on
the 3d of February, 1830.
Present—The Plenipotentiaries of Great Britain, France, and
Russia.

The conference having continued its deliberations upon the exe-
cution of the provisions of the Protocol, No. I, of this day, applied
itself to the choice of the sovereign to be given to Greece.
The plenipotentiaries of the three powers considered, that among
the pascals who were more particularly recommended to the choice
of the alliance by their personal qualities, and the circumstances of
their rank and station, the Prince Leopold of Saxe-Coburg offered
to Greece and to Europe in general every possible guarantee; that
according to the information hitherto received, there was reason to
believe that the Greeks would receive him with gratitude for their
sovereign.
The Prince Leopold is not a member of the Royal Family
reigning In England : he could not be called to succeed to the Cram.
Consequently the Prince of Coburg does not come within the
case of exclusion contemplated in the Protocol of the 22d of Marsh.
Husband of the Princess, daughter of the King, he has, with
respect to honours, been assimilated by Act ofParliament, to the
Royal Family ; but it has been admitted and established by the
explanations given by the Government of his Britannic Majesty,
that the Prince Leopold is not a Peer of the Kingdom; that he has
never sat in Parliament; and that since the catastrophe which broke
the ties which connected him with England, he does not there
esercise any public function.
In his pecuniary circumstances, as established by the Treaty of
Marriage—a Treaty in its nature inviolable, and confirmed by Act
of Parliament—Prince Leopold is, whatever may be the course of
events, entirely independent.
The Plenipotentiaries of Great Britain, France, and Russia, then
declared, that they unanimously gave the votes of their Courts in
favour of Prince Leopold of Sate-Coburg; and they agreed to draw
op a joint note, for the purpose of offering to him, in the terms and
under the conditions inserted in the Protocols of this date, the Go-
vernment of the new Greek State, with the title of Sovereign Prince
of Greece, to devolve hereditarily upon his descendants.
The Protocols of this day shall be communicated to Prince Leo.
pad of Saxe-Coburg, and that Prince shall be invited to give his
assent thereto. (Signed)

Protocol, No. 3, of the Conference held at the Foreign Office on the
3d of February, 1890.
Present :.-The Plenipotentiaries of Great Britain, France, and
Russia.

The Prince Leopold of Saxe Coburg having been called, by the
tooitod suffrages of the three Courts of the Alliance, to tine Sove-
reignty of Greece, the French Plenipotentiary requested the atten.
Lion of the Conference to the particular situation in which his Go-
vernment is placed, relative to a portion of the Greek population.
He represented that for many ages France had been entitled to
eacercise, in favour of the Catholic subjected to the Sultan, an espe.
cial protection, which his Meat Christian Majesty deems it to he his
duty to deposit at the present moment in the hands of the future
Sovereign of Greece, so far as the provinces which are to form the
new State are concerned; but in divesting himself of this preroga-
tive, his Most Christian Majesty owes it to himself, and he owes it
to a people who have lived so long under the protection of his ances-
tors, to require that the Catholics of the Continent and of the islands
shall and in the organization which is about to be given to Oftece,
guarantees which may be substituted for the influence which France
has hitherto exercised in their favour.
The Plenipotentiaries of Great Britain and Russia appreciated
doe justice of this demand ; and it was decided that the Catholic re.
legion should enjoy in the new State the free and public exercise of
its worship, that its property should be guaranteed to it, that its
Bishops should be maintained in the integrity of its functions, rights,
sod privileges, whlekthey have enjoyed under the protection of the
Binge of France, and that, lastly, agreeable to the same prinelple,
the properties belonging to the ancient French Missions, or French
Establishments, shall be recognised and respected.
The Plenipotentiaries of the three AUied Courts being desirous
moreover of giving to Greece a new proof of the benevolent anxiety
of their Sovereigns respecting it, and of preserving that country from
the calamities which the rivalry of the religions therein professed
might incite, agreed that all the subjects of the new State, whatever
may be their religion, shall be admissible to all public employments
functions. and honours, and be treated on the footing of a paw;
equality, without regard to difference of creed, is sU their relations,
religiose, civil, or political.

Protocol of the Gamow hold•at the Foreign Moe, on the Roth

of February, 1830.

Present—The Plenipotandaries of Great Britain, Fiance, and

The Plenipotentiaries tithe three Allied Courts being assembled,
the object of the Cr.nference was to take into consideration the an-
swer of his Royal Highness the Prince Leopold of Sass-Coburg, to
the joint note addressed to him by the Plenipotentiaries, in
conformity with the provisions of the Protocol No. 2, dated Fe.
bruary 3, 1830.

After having examined the observations offered by Prince Leo-
pold upon his acceptance of the Sovereignty of Greece which had
been offered to him, the Plenipotentiaries of the Alliance agreed
upon the following Resolutions, relative to the five points specified
in the answer of his Royal Highness.
1. The intentions of the three Courts are in conformity with the
wishes expressed by the Prince, in regard to the guarantee of the
new Greek State by the Powers who signed the Treaty. The other
Powers will be invited to adhere to it.

2. The Allied Powers cannot admit the right of intervention of the
Sovereign Prince of Greece, in regard to the manner in which the
Turkish Government exercises its authority in Candies or Samos.—
Those Wands are to remain under the dominion of the Porte and
are to be independent of the new Power which it has been agreed to
establish in Greece. However, the Allied Powers hasten to declare
to Prince Leopold, for the personal satisfaction of his Royal High-
ness, that in virtue of the engagements which they have contracted
by common agreement, they consider themselves bound to assure to
the inhabitants of Candies and Soma, security against all molesta-
tion on account of the part which they may have taken in antecedent
troubles. In case the Turkish authority should be exercised in a
manner offensive to humanity, each of the Allied Powers, without,
however, entering into a special and formal engagement to that ef-
fect, would deem it its duty to interpose its influence with the Porte,
in order to assure to the inhabitants of the above mentioned islands
protection against arbitrary and oppressive acts.
3. The Conference decided that there existed insurmountable ob-
stacles to a reconsideration of the decisions relative to the demarca-
tion of the limits of the new State.
4. The three Powers have resolved to assure to the new State
pecuniary succours, by means of the guarantee of a loan to be made
by the Greek Government, of which the object shall be to provide
for the pay and maintenance of the troops which the Sovereign
Prince shall have occasion to raise for his service.

6. In order to obviate the temporary difficulties which the Sove-
reign Prince might experience before the raising of his troops should
be effected, the French Plenipotentiary, at the request of the Pleni-
poteatiaziea of England and Russia, took upon himself to consent
to the prolongation of the stay of the French troops at present In
Greece, for the space of one year.
In case a longer stay of those troops should be judged indispensa-
ble, the Powers will come to an understanding with the Sovereign
Prince, with the view of complying with his wishes.
It was then determined that the joint letter of the Plenipotenda.
ries of the Alliance, and the reply of his Royal Highness Prince
Leopold, should be annexed to the present protocol,---Litt. A. B.
to record the offer made to that Prince of the Sovereignty of Greece,
as well as his acceptance thereof, and his adhesion to the provisions
agreed upon between the three Courts of the Alliance.

It was likewise determined that the arrangements of the present
protocol should be immediately notified to the Ottoman Porte, and
to the Provisional Government of Greece; that the form of those
communications should be settled in an early conference; and that
until the arrival of the Prince of Saxe Coburg in Greece, the rela-
tions established between the existing Government of that country
and the Allied Courts, should be maintained as they exist at the
present moment.

♦nnes. A. to the Protocol of the Conference of the 20th of Feb. 1830
Copy of the joint Note addressed by the Plenipotentiaries of France
Great Britain, and Russia, to his Royal Highness the Prince Leo-
pold of Saxe-Coburg, dated London, the 3d of February. 1830.
The undersigned, Plenipotentiaries of the three Courts, who
signed the Treaty of the 6th of July, 1827, have received from their
respective Governments (*den to make to his Royal Highness the
Prince Leopold of Saxe Coburg, the following communication :
" The Allied Powers being desirous of affording new pledges of
stability to the work of peace in which they are engaged, and taking
into consideration the declarations put forth by the Ottoman Porte,
have agreed among themselves upon the basis of the definitive ergs-
nization which Greece should receive. They have inconsequence de.
termined, that there should be placed at the bead of the new State,
a Prince whose character should furnish a satisfactory guarantee to
Greece, and to the whole of Europe. They have resolved to make
to the Prince Leopold of Saxe Coburg the offer of the hereditary
sovereignty of that country, with the title of Sovereign Prince of
Greece."

The undersigned, in informing Prince Leopold of this determina-
tion of their Courts, have the honour to communicate to him, con-
fidentially, the Protocols Nos. 1,2, and S, of the 3d of February,
1830, in which are recorded the intentions of the High Powers, as
well with regard to his Royal Highness, as with regard to the orga-
[deaden of Greece. They flatter themselves that his Royal High.
new will give his adhesion to the arrangements settled in these three
instruments, and that he will accept the distinguished marks of
esteem and confidence which the Alliance is desirous of conferring
upon him.
The undersigned congratulate themselves greatly upon being the
interpreters of their August Sovereigns, and they avail themselves
of the opportunity of having the honour to offer to his Royal High-
ness the Prince Leopld the homage of their profound respect.

SERIOUS ACCIDENT TO THE BISIIOP OF FERN...—.
It is with concern we announce to the public the circum-
stance of the Bishop of Ferns having met a severe acci-
dent. As his lordship, accompanied by his son-in-law,
the Rev. Mr. Stokes, was descending a hill near Ballyca-
nerd, in the county Wexford, on Saturday last, his right
foot slipped and the knee of that side bent under him, in
consequence of which the tendon connecting the patella,
or knee-pan, with the muscles of the thigh, was torn
asunder. The accident we understand to be one of rare
occurrence, and that a considerable time must elapse be-
fore the motion of the limb will be restored.—Evenis9
