People are entirely separated •fvolis shsir superiors,
whom they consider rather as haksrtiskrmasters and
oppressors, than friends and protestors. No attempt
is made to reform the Irish peasantry by bettering
their condition, or to bring them to a sense of duty,
but by exercising the rigours of the law; and now
that these have been carried 'to their- utmost extent
without effect, we are at a lost tolits* what new
expedient will be resorted to. • .
The Insarecticui Act passed, and operates at this
hour: yet the menaces and preparatives of insurrea
Lion proceed as boldly as they did twelve months ago.
The Hal,eas Corpus Act was suspended, and fount,
practically useless : the army was increased, but di;
Glared, by no less authority than the Duke of Wm,-
unoron, an inadequate Instrument for maintaining
the public tranquillity. What remains, then, to be
tried? The new County-Police Act ! Unless the po-
lice be as numerous as an army, they will not succeed
where the army has so often failed. There does, in-
deed, remain to be tried—that into which, since the
Government bas not had the grace to enter volun-
tarily, it will at length be driven in mere despair—we
mean a new system of national relief and conciliation.
The Government and the grievances of Ireland can;
not long exist together—one or the other must fall.
In another part of our Paper will be found the
, particulars of some dreadful outrages in Ireland, to
which we have to add the following:

Wurrinpor Araociuss....-14 The following melancholy outrages'
which have occurred in the put week, immediately in the neigh-
bourhood of Dowell, have been received from a correspondent
on whose veracity we can rely, dated Saturday night.--Sunday
night the haggard of Capt. FumsrA, of Landscape, was set on
See and destroyed. Tuesday nights quantity of hay was burnt on
the knits Mr. Hummer, of Fort William. Wednesday night
a large bourn, the property of a- cubit farmer named Bretz-
:Kr, of Skabanagh, was burnt. Thursday night some tithe corn,
left by Mr. Jost Sum% on the lands of Sycamore, within a
mile of thii town, was demurred by in. Friday night two
torn stacks, the property of a man named Foley, at Carrigreen,
were also burnt ; two fuse brakes were fired the same night, in
different directions, the reason of which is obvious. Whilst
writing the above, the town basket in alarms, on the report of
a Gentleman of veracity, who witnessed ten different fires in
the neighbourhood of Castlepoke, and on the lands of New-
town, atc. This has since been ascertained to be the fact. AU
these occurrences have been invariably reported Wore. nine
o'clock at night, and many of them before eight. At tho boor
of eight on Saturday night, three immense bets were seen from
different situations in this town."—Dublin Journal.

We have received the French Papers of Wednes-
day ; but their contents are not of much interest,
either so far as relates to France or to other countries.

A telegraphic dispatch from Strasburg announces
that the judgment condemning Caron to (lead), had
been confirmed by the Council of Revision of the
Fifth Military Division.
The heating of some causes relative to the•freedom
of the Press, has been put off for eight days longer.
The persons against whom charges of this nature
stand, are one Gabes!, Desmazure, and Lecrivain, for
selling treasonable prints. Dardonvitle, charged with
publishing a work called " Solite Reflections on Trea-
son," has been accused of outrages and offences
against the KING and Religion.
Great changes have recently taken place in the Se-
cretaries of the Agents of Police at Paris ; nearly 20
have changed their quarters, and ten or twelve have
received their dismissal.

The Correctional Tribunal has condemned the
Sitar Rickard, a dealer in herbs, in whose house had
been found certain poisonous drugs, allowed to be
sold only by druggists, to pay 1,500 francs.
The intelligence respecting the Greeks in these
Papers is favourable. Accounts from Trieste of the
:11als of September state, that letters had been re-
'teived at that place from Corfu. under date of the
Ma of August (the latest yet had from that quarter),
whirls confirmed the reports of the victories gained
by the Greeks in the vicinity of Argos and Corinth
This concurrent mass of testimony, coming at differ-
ent times and from so many various directions, would
be deemed conclusive in any other case; but the in-
credulity of those who do not believe, because they
do not wish, that the Greeks should have triumphed
over the last mighty effort of the Porte to exterminate
them as a people, is of no common kind. They can-
not deny that all the accounts published by their great
Oracle, the Austrian Observer, relate to the particular
period at which the irruption was made, and to the
first advantages which it was impossible that a sur-
prise should not produce. They see that the most
mysterious silence is maintained by that Journal with
respect to the events which followed that period, when
the Turks, having obtained a footing in the Morea,
tried to extend their inroads, and met with heroic re-
sistance and ruinous discomfiture in every quarter.
The intelligence from Spain, though two days
I later than previously received, is not important.

A Spanish courier, who left Madrid on the morn-
ing of the 21st, states that, at his departire the Capi-
tal enjoyed the most perfect tranquillity►, and the
greatest activity existed in all branches of the Admi-
nistration, which rivalled one another in thci: :cal to

to give an account of an attack on the town of MAS..

that the French troops of the frontier cordon made
three charges on the Militia of Massanet, who were pur-
suing a part of the troops commanded by Don COSTA.
Gallicia has remained tranquil ; but the following

" On the demand of our Political Mid, supported by our Mi-
nister at the Court of Portugal, that Government has ordered
to be expelled from its territory all Spaniards who have taken
refuge there, after having conspired against the Constitutional
System. It is in consequence of this measure that Pereira has
returned with arms into our territory, and has surprised two
weak detachments, one belonging to the Regiment of Burgos,
and the other behinging to the mounted Custom-house officers ;
he bas successively occupied Sajamonde and Redondela, the
heights of which he covers. Troops have set out in pnnuik of him.'

Gerinan Papers to the 27th ultimo have been re-
ceived. The Austrian Observer, of the 23d ult. con-
tains the following intelligence:

co:

Yesterday Lord Strangford commenced his long
determined journey to Vienna. More than two months
ago he informed the Ministers of the Porte that be
had received permission from his Court to go to
Vienna about the time of the Congress ; and also. that
*after the long and important conference of: Tolilin
he would have left Constantinople, bad net the wish

to complete several consitsissionsvelseequendyreeeited
detained him. The intelligence which reached bins in
the latter end of August made him, however, resolve
no longer to postpone his journey. He applied to
the Porte for a conference before be should set out+
Though this request involved some difficulty, on ac-
count of the proximity of the minor Festival of Bairem,
a conference with the Reis Effendi was nevertheless
fixed for the 27th, the day before the commencement
of the festival—a courtesy which Lord Strangford
accepted as a mark of personal regard shewn to him-
self. Shortly before the period of his departure he
received the melancholy intelligence of the death of
the Marquis of Londonderry ; but, much as this event
affected him, he would not alter his determination.
—He assured the Ottoman Ministry that his absence
would be of very short duration. lie hoped to
arrive at Vienna between the 20th and 24th of the
present month.
Lord Strangford's last conferences with the Reis
Effendi were highly important ; and in the detailed
report drawn up by him, contains the most instructive
information respecting the events of the present
moment, the situation of the Turkish empire, the rela-
tions of the Porte with the Powers of Europe, and a
number of other subjects on which the most per-
verted and unreasonable ideas appear to prevail in
foreign countries.

Within the last week the Greeks who are here have
been again occupied with rumours of victories. They
speak of the return of the insurgent Senate to Argos,
of great defeats sustained by the Turks in the Morea,
&c. Of. these events, however, we have as little in-
formation from any credible source as we forinitly
had four weeks previously of the fabricated battle of
Thermopylw. We only know this much—that the
Turkish Government considers the conquest of the
Morea as completed, and manifest this conviction not
only by their declarations but by their measures.:—
They rely also not a little on the farther consequences
of the system of moderation which has hitherto with
great prudence been followed by Cbourscbid Pacha.'
Orders are daily transmitted to him to spare no tabour
and no sacrifice if he can thereby avoid the farther
shedding of blood. The Minister also seizes every I
opportunity which presents itself to represent..to the
foreign Ambassadors that to follow this coarse is the
great object of their endeavours, and the earnest wish
of the Sultan.

On the LOth a considerable train of artillery, with
a large supply of ammunition, departed for Er:engin.
In that quarter the Persians have recently obtained
considerable advantages over the Turkish troops,
commanded by Jelaladdin Pacha. These advantages
.are the consequence of the defection of Selim Paha,
a Kurdish rebel, who, on the condition of receiving
pardon, had ptornised to join the Turkish army

sons who had been concerned in the revolution
of 1820 have been condemned to death, and thirteen.
to 25 years imprisonment. The Gazette, however,
is loud in its praises of the Royal clemency for having
pardoned 28 out of the 30 condemned, and for having
commuted this punishment into imptisonment and
hard labour for 30 years l Two were ordered to be

The Piedmoniese Gazette contains an Ordonnanee
of CnAntes FELIX for the regulation of the studious
youth of his dominions. The students of Turn, it
will be remembered, were zealous partisans of the
Constitution of 1821, and mainly instrumental in
bringing about the revolutionary explosion. For this
the University of Twin v►as dissolved, and its fine
building converted into A stable for the horses of the
Royalist troops. Like the Army, it has now been
refOrmed, and, together with the other seminaries of
the kingdom, placed under an Institute that would
have suited any century from the Bth to the 15th,
and no other. All education is subjected to the
Priests. The students are condemned to a surveillant. e,
as constant and more galling than that of galley
slaves. They are directed in what houses they must
lodge, what Church they must attend, what religious
exercises they must perform. If these restrictions on
the spirits of youth
_do not please the High Allies,
they: iseglirviety fastidious indeed !

A Curates Courant, of the 27th July, received via
the ;Inked States, contains an account that General
BOLIVAR bad fought a battle with the Spanish Gene-
ral, onthe borders of Upper Peru, which lasted all
day, and that BOLIVAR was"compelled to retreat the
nest morning; that the Patriots lost half their army
and one General, and that the loss of the Spaniards
was uncommonly severe.

• The weather, yesterday, presented several remat k-
able vicissitudes. After a morning unusually dark
and hazy, the Sun broke forth in unclouded splendour;
and for several hours revived all the heat and Flory
Of &miner. In the evening, a thin whitish veal en-
veloped the sky, through which dazzling, and almost
lincessant flashes of lightning played with harmless
brilliancy unaccompanied with thunder. This Mag-
nificent display lasted till the Moon with an attendant
planet (Jupiter) resumed their thrones in the heavens
and shed a milder but not less beautiful light.

" A mysterious sort of paragraph having appeared in severl
