Poarsriourti, Auo. 13.—The arrival of the Russian
squadron, though it was composed of so many line-of-
tattle ships—eight 74's, with eight frigates, arid a cor-
vette—did not excite anything like a sensation of alarm
or apprehension, as to the teal object of their visit to
the Mediterranean, because the public mind seemed
satisfied that our late spit ited Minister*, Mr. CANNING,
must himiell have been satisfied upon the subject; and,
if it should otherwise turn out, he would be more than
a match for their duplicity. It seems that when the
Russian ships left Cronstadt, their only orders were
"to proceed to Portsmouth:" where, they afterwards
olderstood, the Russian Ambassador in London, the
Ltaarts,would visit them, and, by an arrangement
,rth the English Government. determine what part of
tse (ince should go on the service required to settle the
,i4pittes between the Turks and Greek=. It was in con-
'totality with this understanding that Prince LtavEN vi.'
si•ed the ltu4i.in Admiral Situ ATtra'S Ship (the Asoffi on
Friday last, and then issued cadets to the Rear Admiral
of ihesquadron,.Count HAYDEN, to prepare the St. An •
.ltaa.Hargood, Ezekiel, and Alexander Newsky, of the
line; Helena, Ptevornie, Kr, uizer, and Constantine fri-
gates for sere ce in the Mediterranean. It is not true that
these ships lisv: any mer., sailors or soldiers, on board,
tot absolutely required to navigate and defend their
dirps the fact is, all the crews of the Russian ships of
'ar are both soldiers and sailors ; they are regimented,
'.l bear the number of their repective corps, na a piece

n j.ckets. The line•of•bsttle ships now here have
r (11;00 nt►n nn board ; the heaviest frigates nearly
503; and the smaller class has nearly 400 men, making
about 10,000 men in the whole. English ships, going
nn the sante service, would not have a Fewer number.
not Mums will sail hence, with his division of the
ships, on Friday neat, for the Mediterranean, should
the supplic, be all shipped by that time. The *min-
d(' of the ships will return to Cronsfadt leisurely, when
they have spent all their" loose cash." They are fond
4)f British manufactures, both in articles of apparel
and oinamtnt. The Russian ships are all 6oe, of
thrii respective classes, but the men are so different
hum our own " fellows," that, if they ate sailors,
they belong to a t catiry back. The men are, no
doubt, very bi awe, and the officers are steady, discreet,
gond sailors, and brave men ; but there is not that
attire, adventurous, dashing, sailor-like corps desprit
About them which animates our fellows, and makes
lan the " Crack' tip-top triumphant sons of the ocean.

the Mexican Minister, M. CAMACHO, on board, for

A Nobleman, distinguished for his learning, good arose, and
Peelictpnit, to lamenting Mr. Canning's death, said, " He is the
Bluish Minister that all the Foreign Courts ever feared."

It appears by the following extract of a letter from
an board the Macedonian American frigate, dated Rio Janeiro, the
d of May, that the American vessels which bad been seized and
Rio Janeiro, for alleged breach of the blockade of the
:late, have been liberated. The fate of the British vessels,
similsr circumstances, is still in suspense. " There have been
at slimly of our merchant vessels involved in difficulties with
Brattian Government; but through the assiduous exertions of
`,dote RIDDLE, they have all been cleared ; and we have
the American tamest who requested protection out of
. service, mante of whom were impressed."
