GREECE AND TURKEY.

FROM THE PRIM' PAPERS.
The Etoik of Monday contains some intelligence
from Greece. An individual who was at Naxos
rit the end of July had seen several thousand re-
fugees from Caudia and the Morea collected at that
place, where four vessels of war were preparing. On
the 29th, the celebrated Canaris arrived, wounded in
the hand, the arm, and the shoulder. He had quitted
the Greek fleet the day before, and after having had his
sounds dressed, intended to join it again on the 31st.
His•fireships had not injured the Turkish vessels, which
had not, however, succeeded in landing the troops which
• they conveyed, on the island of Samos. The Turks
h id, in fact, twice made the attempt, and been twice
defeated. Count d'Harcourt, Mr. de la Vigne, and
three other French volunteers, had reached Milo on the
21A of July, and were preparing to repair to Napoli di
Romania on board of an Ipsariot brig. On the 25th,
the %English frigate Seringapatam had visited Samos,
and taken away the British Commercial Agent and his
family. Two lonian vessels had also received on board
—2OO yersons whom they had conveyed to Syra and other
islands in the Archipelago. The Turkish fleet was then
in sight. Ott the 27th, the Gieeics appeared before
Samos with 36 vessels, There was between them and
the Turks an engagement, the chief result of which was
to prevent the latter from attempting a third landing.
It was reported at Smyrna that it was through the me-
• dium of the American ships that the last summons of
• the Captain Paella had been communicated to the Sa-
inians. The Turks bud burned the town of Athens,
' and rent the prisoners which they made to Eubeel.—
Letters from Chio of the 31st of July state that the
hostile fi:ets were in sight every day, and that frequent
cannonades were heard.-
There is alsO some intelligence in this Paper from
Constantinople, but it is anterior to that whisk we re-
ceivi d a few days since. It communicates, however, ii'
re, o t which would be important, if it turned out to
be c rrtct. This is nothing less than that war had'
broken out between Russia and the Persians, and it is
added that the individuals of that nation residing in the
Turkish capital expected most anxiously the snivel of
Tartars from the frontiers of Georgia, to know exactly
what was passing in that quarter. The Persian Mo-
narch had repaired in June last to the camp of Oudjan,'
ten leagues S. E. of Tauris, whilst his eldest son, Prince
• Abbas fhfrza. had marched with his troops to
Nakhtchipvan, on the bank of the Araxus, and Hussein
Khan S rdar, Governor of Irewan, had taken post with
his corps on the frontier of both empires. The object
of arse movements, said, as usual, to have been dictated
by British influence, is stated to be the recovery of the
provinces of Aghistan, Chirwan, and others formerly
belonging to the dominions of the Schaz, but gradually
. swallowed up by Russia during the last forty years.

A Flanders Mail, bringing German Papers to a
recent date, have been received. There it a twice-told
tale from Augsburgb, on the affairs of Greece ; and an

.. •
atdcle from Prtidcfort, which we subjoin, ilansbutgbi
Papers to the 7th inst. have also reached us, The latter
contain intelligence from St. Petersburgh to the 27t",
and from Moscow to the 22d August. At that period
the Coronation had not taken place, and not only is no
reason given to accohnt for the delay, but although fetes
and military reviews are described, the subject of that
important ceremony, which bas called the ErtitEßOß,
and Ambassadors from the whole civilized woild, to the
resuscitated capital of ancient Russia, is no longer even
mentioned.

At St. Petersburgh a new Ordonnance has been just
published respecting the Censorship of the Press, which
had received the Imperial sanction on the 22d of June
last. It consists of 19 chapters, divided into 230 sections,
and fills 12 printed sheets. Admiral SCHIRCKOW, Minister
of Public Instruction, is Director-General of the Censor-
ship throughout the Empire. Next to him are the Mi-
nister of Foreign Affairs and of the Interior. A general
Board of Censorship is to be establishei at St. Peters-
burgh, under the Director-General, and there are to
be subordinate Boards at Moscow, Dorpat, and Wilna.
The Chief Board consists of a President with a salary
of 7,000 rubles, and six Censors, each with a salary of
4,000 rubles. The other consists of a President with a
salary of 4,000 rubles, and three Censors with a salary
of 3,000 rubles. The Chief Board has its own Chancery,
at the head of which is Prince SCHIRINsKY SCHIOHMA-
row, Director of the Ministers and of the Chancery.—
The President of the Chief Board is appointed or dis-
missed only by his MAJESTY. He proposes the Cen-
sors, whom the Minister is to confirm. The other Boards
are under the Curators of the Universities, by whom
they are to be nominated, and confirmed by the Minis-
ter, who will communicate to them the Protestant de-
cisions. The annual expense of this new censorship will
be 90,150 rubles (the old committee cost only 5,3.50
rubles). The jurisdiction of that Board extends to all
books and periodicals published in the Empire in the
Russian or in foreign languages. Besides this the. pre-
sent Committee of Censorship attached to the General
Post Office shall be continued for foreign newspapers
and other periodicals, and that attached to the depart-
ment of the Minister of the Interior for all foreign
books and writings. The chief Board receives orders
only from the Minister who directs it, and has not con-
nection with respect to its jurisdiction with any other
authority in the Eriipire, and directs the operations of
the ether Boards. The latter must lay before the for-
mer for consideration and decision all important cases,
political distassions on the internal and external re-
lations, &c.

Exempt from the Censorship of these Boards are :

!. All religious and ecclesiastical w risings relative to the national
religion, Which:at heretofore, are to be examined by the Holy Synod
and the Committee of Ecclesiastical Schools; theological and dog-
matic's! we its well as catechisms of the Protestant religion,
are csantineti by tke Theological Faculty of the University of the
Dorpot aad other religion works relative to Protestantism by the
Con sistorial Boards.

2. AU medical writings, which are to be etamined by the Medico
Cbirurgical Academy at Sc. Petersburgb, and by its branch Ace-
&atria Moscow, as well as by the Medical Council In the Depart-
ment of the Interior.
3. The Oration a, .Dissertations, and Writings of all kinds read in
the Uniaersidepp Academies, ace. under the Minister of Publk
Instructloa, (jncluditig the Medico Cbirurgical Academy, its branch
in Moscow; anti the Medical Council in the Department of the
interior), and which Dissertations, &c. are afterwards printed

The publication must be however made in the name of the whole
University, and not in that of the several authors.
4. All periodical Journals published by the Universities with the
permission of the Minister of Public Instruction.
5. The journal de St. Pelersburgh, the Journal composed by the
Academy of Science, the Military Journal (The Invalid), remain as
hitherto under the censorship of the Authorities, under whose su.
perintendance they are published.

6. The national and foreign Newspapers, as well as periodical
writings published in the Baltic provinces, remain under the special

superintendance of the Governors General of those provinces (as
ordered by an Imperial Decree of 17th March, 1823). Writings
on Education, the object of which is the instruction of youth or
better methods of teaching, must beim examined by the higher
learned institutions, and then with their approbation tried before
the Board of Censorship.
FRANKFORT, Sm. 1.

We cannot yet say anything positive with respect to the fair. We
hear that several large sales of English manefactures, especially
woollens, have been made, and, it is added, and under the circum-
stances is probable, upon reasonable terms. With respect to wool,
which, in so many respects, is one of the most important articles at
our fair, the result of the late fair at Brunswick encourages the hope
that the present fair will prove more favourable than the last Easter
Fair; and notwithstanding the large supplies, better prices are
confidently expected. In general, every thing indicates that
there is an improvtment in the state of the money market, and in
the commercial world, as it daily becomes clearer that many appre-
hensions hitherto conceived, had their source in a troubled 'magi.
nation. Nay, it seems as if the general despondency which prevailed
a few months ago as well on the Continent as in England, has been
taken advantage of by a great many persons to gratify their low
Fissions of envy and and enjoy a malicious satisfaction at
the expense of ethers.
We have received the E.toik of Monday's date. The
only news which it contains relates to the state of Turkey and its
capital, at and before the 10th of August.

The news from Greece is very afil cting. The Turks
