GOD LirE THE KING

His MAJESTY has also issued a Proclamation, dated
the 9th inst. appointing the Peers of Scotland to meet
at Holyrood House, Edinburgh, on 'Thursday, the
2d day of August next, to choose another Peer of
Scotland to sit and vote in the House of Peers of Great
Britain, in the room ofJoint Earl of STAIR, deceased.

The Paris Papers of Thursday, and Madrid to the
28th ult. which were the only foreign arrivals in the
course of yesterday, brought no intelligence of im-
portance.
We have to day received the Paris Papers of Friday.
They contain a piece of news of rather peculiar inte-
rest to the English reader.—" We read (says the Con•
st ionnel) in a journal of the day before yesterday,
that the ATTORNEY-GENERAL at London, on the re-
quisition of the Ministers of Russia, Austria, and
Prussia, is going to prosecute the Editor of a journal
' who has compared the Alliance of ALEXANDER the
FIRST, FRANCIS 11. and FREDERICK WILLIAM 111.
to the triumvirate of OCTAVIUS, LEPIDUS, and MARK
ANTONY !" We wonder it is not added, that, in the
demand of the three Potentates, it had been also
agreed upon that the foresaid Editor should not be
tried by an English Jury, but by a Jury picked from
among the lacqueys and other persons attached to
the households of their respective Ambassadors.—
Ridiculous as the statement is, it shews the idea which
people on the Continent have of the timid subser-
viency of our Court to the arrogant pretensions of
the Allied Monarchs.

A letter from Corfu of the 23d of April, announces
that a Turkish squadron of two frigates, two cor-
vettes, and two brigs, had been smartly pursued by
the Greek vessels of war of Hydria and Spezzia.
The former had taken refuge in the port of Gume-
nizza. On the same day there was heard at Corfu a
strong cannonade, which seemed to come from the
side of Prevesa.

Accounts from Frankfort to the 2d instant state,
that according to the letters received there from the

frontiers of Turley, great exertions were beginning to
be made to fortify the weaker points of Constantino.
ple, and that all the troops composing the garrison
of that Capital were employed on the works. The
strongest place, it is added, of the Morea, is that of
Napoli, called Malvoisin, whence the wine of the
neighbourhood takes the name of Malvoisin, and it
is now besieged by a fleet, the Admiral of which is
a Greek heroine. She is called ‘Vablina. Her has.
band, who was Captain of a vessel, was killed souk
time ago by the Turks ; five of her sons were also
massacred by the barbarians.

Among the Greek squadron there are seven vessel%

Turks that the person who summons them is a Gre.
clan, and that she was animated with generous sea.
timents ; that in case of submission, she would gua,
rantee to them their lives ; but, that if they were ob.
stinate in making resistance, she would put them ail
to the sword. This appears to be the same Immo
of whom we had before some accounts.

A private letter from Augsburgh of the 2d of June,
states, that " recent accounts from Conctantint,rje
paint in very unfavourable colours the anxieties of
the Ottoman Government, under the serious cirenni.
stances in which it is now placed. Troops and arta.
lery have, indeed, been sent to the menaced Film,
but there is a want of unity.in..the measures pre►
scribed by the Divan.
.The Pachas charged with the
,different commands are not agreed among them,
selves. It appears, also, that the Janissaries have
penetrated into the hotel of Sieur FONTANA, Cout.
sellor of Legation, although he has been formally
recognized in that quality by the PORTE. They
seized on all his papers, and broke everything they
found in his hotel. It is reported, that the Men.
hers of the Diplomatic Corps had sent a joint Nutt,
conceived in the most energetic teims."

day at 57, and are in some demand in the English
market. The prospect of a new loan with SpaiorM
probably prevent, at present, tl:eir advance beyond
that price. We have not heard the amount of the
intended loan mentioneel. It is stated generally, it
die letters from Paris, that one of the contractors for
the late loan is at Madrid, and that arrangements
have been submitted to the Select Committee of the
Cortes, for simplifying the debt, by consolidating the
whole into oae Great Book, after the manner of the
French Government.—Neapolitan Stock is at 711/;,
with the dividend from July next; and French Rata
are last quoted from Pails at 861. 75c. which is a de.
pression, but a very slight one. There has been little
done in either on our, Exchange for the last few days.

A Mail arrived this forenoon from Holland, with
Papers to the 9th inst. The following are extracts;

STOCKHOLM, MAY ,2S.

The Norwegian Diet is now exerting itself in
extraordinary manner, for the purpose of introducing
11 a new distinct commercial flag for the kingdom of
Norway ; but it is objected to on the part of the Go-
vernment, which, in point of fact, offers no real ad-
vantage, because the Swedish flag is everywhere u•
cognised, and, even in the Barbary States, respected
above all others. It would cost very large sums of
money, and can therefore be the less advisable at this
time, when the financial resources of Norway seem
to be inadequate even to fulfil the engagements es
tered into with Denmark. The Committee of the
Diet, which was charged to draw up a new plan ci
taxation for the three following years, has reported
that the time which it has still remaining for this
business is too short, and therefore recommends that
the existing taxes shall continue to be levied omit
present footing, with a few alterations.
The journal, called The National Paper of Nat.
way, vihich had indulged in some remarks on tk
manner in which several Members of the Diet bare
expressed themselves relatively to the affair of tk
Nobility, is not permitted to be any longer for-
warded by the Royal Post•offsce.

Major Withlock, Aid-de-Camp to the King set out
yesterday for Norway. He is to form a camp be
tween Moss and Christiana for 6,000 men, which
corps will principally consist of the infantry and a
' valry brigades of Smaland. It is affirmed that this
officer is charged with an important message to the
Norwegian Diet.
We every morning feel our astonishment renewed
that the daily press still either refrains from noticing,
or tries to palliate the attempt, on the part of nr•
SCAR LETT, to begin a series of legislative enacunerit
which have for their object the depriving the labour•
ing classes of their only property and stake in the
country. The Poor Rates constituteas truly &III'
hold estate of the labouring classes, as the land
does the property of the Peers and Members ci
Parliament ; and, considering these rates as ir'
stituted only in the time of Queen ELIZABETH,. nel
derived from no other source than the caprice
or short-sightedness of that Monarch and her Leg'?'
,
lature, they are as much the rightful inheritaect ei
those for whom they were formed by legal prow?'
tion, usage, and everything that constitutes light
to property, as four-fifths of the lands of England
are the proFerties of the present possessors. L‘‘.'
Mr. SCA RLETT or those who abet his Molt larsio in•
sanity, suppose thac the whole labouring Poor cf.
England will submit to see themselves deprived:
their only property, and make neither complaint c,
remonstrance? or that as soon as the drift of bu
:evolutionary iunovation4 is understood, there 163

sot be fotind defenders of the laws of Gob, and ad-
vocates o the rights of the common People ?
One of the very first laws of GOD• to man was—
te INCREASE AND MULTIPLY," and the DIVINE voice
continues to repeat. it in the irresistible impulse of na•
turd instinct.
All the wealth existing in the world is formed by
the labour of man, and whatever portions of it cdn-
stitute the-properties of individuals, are held in trust
for the benefit of the community, of whom the pro-
ductive labourers are the primary class.
Mr. Sc ‘nt.Err, and those who think as he does,
must deny these two positions. For it is the ten .lency of
the doctrines which they advocate to repress the na-
tural instinct—to silence the Divine voice, and, by
causing new restraints on marriage, to justify all
crimes which may diminish the population of the
world. Infanticide, in the poor, under their pre-
mises, would not be a crime against society, and the
pear would be justified for drowning their children
like kittens or puppy dogs.
We state this plainly, that the true character of
the unnatural dogmas of MALTHUS and his disciples
may be clearly understood—dogmas which derive no
countenance from fact, history, or experience, but
are founded entirely on misconceptions and imagi-
nary principles ; the very authorities from which they
were originally drawn by MALTHUS, having by Mr.
GonwiN been shown to be utterly undeserving of any
credit or confidence whatever. Hitherto, and till
the contemners of the laws of GOo and violators of
the rights of the poor,—for such we consider the
new limed of political economists to be,—the
strength of nations was held to be in the number of
their industrious subjects. But now, forsooth, a new
ti-,ht has broken in upon some of our sage Senators,
and an industrious people, in proportion to their num-
Ler, form a public evil, a nuisance that must be
abated by the renewal of emigration, or suppressed
by the horrors of actual beggary.—'We shall return
to this subject, and Mr. SCAKLETT.
