This morning we received Ilamburgh Papers to the
20th instant, and Dutch Papers to the 2441). Accounts
from Berlin state, that the conferences at St.Petersburgh,
respecting the affairs of Greece, had not led to any
satisfactory result ; and that it was at length agreed,
that however well meant the intervention of the Euro-
pean Powers might be. it was not likely to be listened
either by the Putte or by the Greeks. This we think
very likely.

The Conservateur Impartial of St. Petersburgh, con-
tains a list of the French Officers on whom the Estrzaoa
has conferred insignia, for their conduct in the war on
Spain. They are forty in number, and of all grades,
from the rank of Marshal to that of Colonel. The fol.
lowing are extracts:
BIIRLIkt. JULY 17.

M. Von Schladen has accepted the post of Ambas-
sador to London, which Count Goka has declined, on
account of his bad health.

It is confidently asserted, that the conferences at St.
Petersburgb, respecting the affairs of Greece, ban not
led to any satisfactory result. The well meant pro-
posal of the Emperor Alexander, the chief abject of
which was to place Greece under the guarantee of the
European Powers, upon the same footing as Wallachia
and Moldavia, was opposed by England, which re-
quired for Greece the independence of the lonian
Islands. On the whole it was at length generally agreed,
that however well meant any intervention might be, it
was not likely to be listened to, either by the Porte or
by the Greeks. _ _

The Grand Duchess Alexandra, consort of the Grand
Duke Nicholas, is expected at Potsdam.

ST. PETERSBURGH, JULY 7.

The seven Sultans, or Khans of the Kirghis, who have
been here as Deputies since the month of November,
set out yesterday on their return home, accompanied
by the Officers appointed to attend them by the Gover-
nor-General of West Siberia. During their stay here
they resided in a house belonging to the Government,
and`were maintained at its expense. On the Ist of
this month they had an audience of Count Nesselrode,

Minister for Foreign Affairs, when they received their
new code of laws, drawn up in the Russian and Hirghis
languages, which lays down the basis of their future
relations to the Russian Empire, as a Normade tribe,
uibutitry to it, and tinder its protection.
CHRISTIANA, JULY e. _ _ _

Letters from London assure us, that his Majesty the
King of Great Britain bad gives orders for the appli.
cation of the regulations of the Reciprocity Bill to
Norwegian vessels.
HANOVER, JULY 17.

The friendly and equitable manner in which ships of
all nations have hitherto been treated in our ports, not
haring been met in several foreign ports with $ corre-
sponding treatment of Hanoverian ships, two Royal

tOrdoaamices, at the 90th of last math, determine.
that from the 114114 August this, rear, all vessels be.

duties, an extraordinary tonnage duty.

pond of the States of the Province, to have a collection

HAGUE, JULY 94.

The sudden death of Mr. Kemper, Professor of Juris-
prudence at Leyden, and member of the Second Cham-
ber of the States-General, is a public loss that will not
easily be repaired. Though highly distinguished in his
literary career, he was no less remarkable in political
life. He accompanied the Prince of Orange on his en-
, trance into Amsterdam, in 1818, and it was by his advice
that his Highness took the:name of Prince Sovereign, in
preference to that of Stadtholder, which Mr. Kemper
justly thought would recal ancient dissensions and an•
tiqtaated pretensions, wholly incompatible with the
actual state of civil society in Europe.
Sovereign power, restricted by a good Constitution,
wogidebe thought, be the only means of preventing
great evils, and ensuring the prosperity of the country.
He was:Without divine, one of the most distinguished
speakers in the Second Chamber, and his extempore
discourses, in particular, were remarkable for their
eloquence and clear reasoning. Though in general an
advocate for the measures of the Government, he was
too independent to defend every measure that was pro.
posed. Thus he was one of the most zealous adversaries
of the first project of law relative to foreign loans ; and
his powerful arguments doubtless contributed, in a great
degree, to its rejection.

In the Journal des Debats of Saturday, there is a
sensible and temperate article on the present state of
the Peninsula ; and it is now perceived that something
more than French bayonets are necessary to secure the
tranquillity of Spain. "If the Spanish Administration,'
says the writer, "could consolidate itself by a prudent
choice, maintained with firmness, it is impossible that
the national prosperity should be established without a
national representation, such as FiRDINAND promised
by his Proclamation of May, 1814. • Public credit is
attached to the guarantee which a permanent body, a
free discussion, and public responsibility give. No
Loans on tolerable conditions without this guarantee;
and, without Loans, how can Spain re-establish her
finances ?"

The Ginsiihaionsiel has a sneering article at M. de CUATZAD.
asleep, because he did not make a speech in the Chamber of Peas,
which it was expected be would deliver on Friday last.
Of the twenty-six French refugees who served in the Spanish i
Constitutional armies. and who were lately acquitted at Toulouse,
seven have been detained on charges of previous desertion, or of
having been implicated is other offences. In the Chamber of De-
pities. on Friday. a report was made on the Petition of " a Parisian
Merchant," praying that the Journals should be required to give
an account of aU the Petitions reported, and the decisions of the
-Chamber on them. The Committee were, however, of opinion,
that the journalists ought to be at lib►rty to contract or extend, as
might be convenient, their accounts of the proceedings of the Cham-
ber, and proposed the Order of the Day on the Petition, which
was adopted.
In the course of the debates on the Budget, in the French Chain-
bet of Deputies, M. C. PIVIZIEII inquired whether Ministers had
secured the moans of repayment of the 34,000,000 f advanced to
Ferdinand VII.? M. de Inuits replied that France would never
have made such advances to Spain if she had not been sure of re-
payment. 3L Macatte asked what security they could have, when
the revenue of Spain had sunk from 1150,000,000 of real, to
146,000,0001 To this question no reply was made.
We have received Demerara Papers to the 13th of
June, at which time the Colony was so tranquil that
the Governor permitted the slaves to keep the Whitsun-
tide holidays as usual. The following are extracts :
(FROM TUZ PATZR OF Ttts 4TH).

PROM THE SAME PAPER OF JUNE 6.

A reconciliation appears to have taken place between the Earl of
Huntingdon and the people of Dominica. New writs have at last
been issued for the re-election of Members of the House of Assem-
bly, and the Members have been retried.

By a Proclamation of Governor *Urban, dated td of June, we
observe that the slaves are to be peintitted to keep the Whitsuntide
holidays, which may be considered as decisive of the quiet state
of the Colony.

We have received Buenos Ayres papers to the 23d of
April. At that date no intelligence of the result of the
military operations in Peru had been obtained.

The latest numben of the Journal entitled St Argos, contain the
Decree appointing Bowan Ideates of Pan. and ocher articles
connected with that proceeding which we have already pvidished.
