Goveratneot has been the last to adopt it. It is easy to foreiee tae
probable fate of the English Reading Society, which, with its new
organization, had been permitted to continue only en the urgent in-
terrentien of M. Kutner, the Hanoverian Charge d'Affaires.—
Hitherto, however, all the English Journals are allowed there, even
the liferein Chronicle.
Leo 14th continues vigilantly to watch, not only the conduct of
the Civil Officers, but also of the Clergy, and to keep them in good
order. Of this we had lately a remarkable example. Monsignors

news of the day, the most important Is the report that the Order
of Malta will be removed to a city in the Papal dominions, and that
the Bull on the subject is in the press.
By accounts from the United States, we learn that his
Majesty's ship Pystaslua arrived off the harbour of New
York, with Mr. Moniza, our Envoy to Mexico, oil
board, on the Ist. inst. The PYRAMUS, it will be recol-
lected, has heen announced long ago as about w nil
from Mexico for England, and her freight being a very
important one, her arrival has been looked for with
much anxiety. This remarkable deviation from the
direct course has given rise to much conjecture, but is
far from being accounted for by any information that
has reached England. It appears that the PYRAMUS
sailed front Vera Cruz on the 27th of Match, and
proceeded, in the first instance, to the Havannah,
where she remained about five day:. On her depar-
ture from Cuba, Mr. Mouse acquainted the Captain
that it would be necessary for him to go to New York,
as he wished to have a conference with the British Mi-
nister at Washington. The Captain obeyed these orders,
but nothing has since transpired on the subject.—
No suspicion was entertained by any individual on
board, at the time the-1'111,mm; left Mexico, of the in-
tention to touch at -New York, and the change of desti-
nation was therefore attributed to some information
acquired by Mr. Montan at the Havannah. That this
information was of great importance can scarcely be
doubted, when it is considered that a very extensive
mercantile interest in England was Connected with the
arrival of the PYRAMUi, and that Mr. MORIRR also wee
accompanied by one of the Mexican Miliisters (M.
CAM Acao)-who was proceeding with him to this coon-1
try, to arrange the disputed points in the treaty lately'
entered into. S ,me internal convulsion, it is thought
probable, is threatened with regard to Cuba, since
previoas accounts have stated that the troops were ill-
paid, and their continued allegiance to Spain therefore
doubtful; and the object of Mr. Montan may therefore
be to make arrangements for securing the independence
of the island in such a manner as would be most coil-
genial with the views of the British Cabinet. Should,
any negociition arise on t! is head, the arrival of the
PYRAMUS in England may be delayed fbr a consi-
derable time.

TRIESTF., Ifimr-11.

After the NI of Missol onghi it was supposed that Ibrahim Piths
would march by Livadia to Athens ; but we learn that he returned
to the Mores, and it is Napoli di Romania that he threatens. The
concentration of his forces in the Morn proves that be has suffered
considerable lasses. It is said he has lost the renegade Seve and
Gen. Boyer. It is affirmed that Notos Botzaris and the Archbishop
of Rogon are in the number of those who perished in the conffa•
oration at Missolonghi. The cruelties practised upon the Christians
who fell alive into the hands of the Egyptians were Incredible.—
Several were crucified, and burnt at a slow fire. Infants were
thrown into the sea. It is said that Ibrahim attacked Petal:, where
a number of Greeks had taken refuge.
To those sensitive pcT77ats who, on the hreaking4
out of the slightest hostilities in India, have predicted the fall of our
vast Empire, the late events in that country must have occasioned
some surprise. We do not so particularly allude to the pe;ce with
the Burmese ; fur, important as that event is, we consider the fall of
Bhurtpore (of which an official account, in a despatch from Lord
Coxswains, will be found in a preceding page) of still more value,
so far as regards the consolidation of our power in Ilindostan.
The British arms had long triumphed in every direction in In-
dia, when Lord Lace, flushed with victory and confident in his
own talents and the bravery of his troops, attacked the almost
impregnable fortress of Bhurtpore; thrice was he foiled in the at.
tempt, and the native Chiefs pointed with pride to its resist-
ance to prove that our armies were not invincible. Circum-
stances again rendered it necessary that Bhurtpore, which had
hitherto " laughed a siege to scorn," should be again attacked,
and Lord Commutes, with consummate skill and promptitude,
invested the fortress, we believe, on the nd of December.—
On the 14th of January, a mine was sprung under one of the bat
dons, which however failed In effect ; but on the 11th, by the ez-
plosion of two other mines and a day's battering, a breach was
made. On t►e morning of the lith, the enemy's breaches were
carried by MOM with such vigour. that, though bravely defended
at-every gateway and bastion. the whole rampart which surrounded
the Sown, together with the command of the gates of the citadel,
were in our possession and at four o'clock of that day, the citadel'
itself surrendered.

The loss •f the enemy is estimated at 4,000 killed; and owing to
the dispusitiqn of the cavalry, haitalty a nun, bearing arms, escaped.
All the stares, arms, and ammunition, are in our possemson ; and
thus has the whole military power of the likurtpere State
been annihilated.

The situation of Bhurtpore rendered it peculiarly favourable as a
rallying point for disaffected Rajahs; wilco, confident in its strength,
conceived it an ample barrier spinet our army in that quarter,
while they fomented insurrections in other quarters. Whether,
therefore, it remains in our hands, or is restored to the young
RAJAH, from whom it was usurped and dismantled, the conquest
is of equal importance,—to say nothing of the terror It must have
struck Ia the Native Chiefs, who relied on it as invulnerable.
