French Three per Cents. on Wednesday, 71-10.

We have advices this morning from Coro, in Colom-
bia, to the 4th of April. They state that the greatest agi-
tation prevailed ever since the arrival of Bouvw a. The
merchants positively refused to pay the duties in cash, in
consequence of which several of them had been thrown
into prison. The English, American, and Dutch Con•
suls strongly remonstrated against these arbitrary pro.
ceedings ; and the effects of their energetic interference
remain to be seen.

By private letters from Havannah, it appears that
the Mexican squadron under Commodore PORT/Ft had
free ingress and egress at Key West. The squadron had
already captured from the Spaniards srveral valuable
prises.

The Algemeine Zeitung, which reached us this morn-
ing to the Ist inst. contains intelligence which, to use
its own words, would be highly important, if confirmed.
It quotes, after another German J .urn,l, letters from
R 'Lisbon of the 26th ult. stating that a courier, dispatch-
ed by the British Ambassador at Constantinople, had
passed through on that day on his way to Lou•fon, with

the intelligetice that that Turks had anatainta an over.
whdrnins defeat before Athens. They were s reces-
sively driven from all their entrenchments, and lost,
besides the whole of their cannon and baggage, ten
thousand men. There may be some csaggeration in
the latter part of the statement, though their loss
must be very great, aonsideripg the obstinate defence
they are said to have made, and the precautions
taken by the Greeks to cut off their retreat, in the
anticipation of their being compelled to raise the
siege of the Acropolis. It is well known that the
Greeks had taken measures as early as the beginning
of April, for occupying all the passes, by which th •
enemy c uld receive supplies. They had also been draw-
ing their troops from all quartets, in order to concen-
trate them in the vicinity of Athens. As these energetic
measures were adopted immediately atter the arrival
of Lord COCHRAN 6 and General Cntinan.'and as they
agree with the professional reputation of these two dis-
tinguished Officers, we may, with great proptiety, place
them to their credit. Moreover Lord Cocuaaas, in
his Proclamation to the Greek nation, urges above all
things the necessity of relieving the classic soil of
Attica from the presence of the Barbarians, and
speaks of their expulsion in the most confident terms.
We feel, therefore, strongly disposed to believe, that
the account is worthy of credit, 'particularly as date
and place are specified, the battle having. it is said,
occurred on the 29th of April. We most now state out
doubts, which ate founded on a single circumstance,-...
the rigid silence of Government. As they must have been
in possession of the dispatches some days since, anl as
they could have no reason, that we can at least see, fot
keeping that part of them, which relates to the alleged
occurrence, a secret,we are compelled to admit that their
silence is somewhat stupicioos. But, with this drawback,
the intelligence possesses most of the r, quisite; to secure
belief; and we must not omit to mention bete. that the
letters speak of another Courier, who passed through
Ratisbon a few hours after the former, coming from
Corfu, which he left on the sth ult. with dispatches from
the Lord High Commissioner of the Joni in Islands, con-
taining the same news. We can only say, in conclusion,
that should this account be confirmed, the independence
of Gieece would be secured, whether the negociations
at Constantinople took a favourable or unfavourable
turn. In the meantime it is ►tated in other German
journals that these negociations will be soon brought to
a termination of some kind. A Great European Power
is said to have announced to its Allies its derter imitation
to adopt coercive measures, should the Porte prove
refractoiy, much Luger. It recommends the neces-
sity of peremptorily firing a certain period, within
which the Turkish Government should declare itself.
After this time (the middle of June), should • the
'Porte refuse to listen to the dictates of moderation
and justice, it expiesses its detertnination to recal
its Ambassador from Constantinople, and take
those sups which, in former communications to
the different Cabinets, it had already announced for the
case in question." Whether England or Russia be
n.eant here we cannot pcisitively say, but we believe it
has reference to the former.

We also received this morning Brussels Papers to the
6th inst. They contain an extract from the Asturian
Observer, in which it is stated that Lord CocHmeeehas
declared to the Greek Government, that he will net bind
himself to explain to it all his plans of operations, or to
communicate them to the Officers under his command.
He only pledges himself in case of success or failure, to
s nd rerrts to the Government.
An Austrian Cabinet Messenger passed through
Brussels un the Ist, on his way to London. The•inter-
course between the different Cabinets has been unusually
active for some• time past, from which it is clear that
some great topic is under discussion; whilst, from the
absence of military movements, it may be reasonably
inferred that the di•cussions have been hitherto carried
on in an amicable manner. _ _ _

Amsterdam Courant:, which likewise arrived this
morning to the 6th, contain no political news whatever.

The following is an extract of a letter from Madrid,
•
dated the 24th May :
" The head-quaners of General Sarsßeld, which were at id*
partida, have been again reasoved to a small village sit lenses from
TruslUo; and the Array of Observation is eesewaratsd In Retro,
madam. seven leagues from the frontiers of Portugal. It la re-
ported that the Royal family will return to this Capital about the
10th of nest month, occasioned by some disagreeable occurrence
which took place at Aranjuez. Letters from Cadiz state. that as the
leth, in the morning, an Insurgent privateer of 1$ guru appeared la
sight of that pert. which somewhat alarmed the Authorities."
