After wading through one of the most obscure and un-
meaning articles we ever saw on the subject of Greece,
in the Globe of last night, we came to the following
notable sentence :—" The evils of Greece have in fact
been the result of interference!" Although we are con-
vinced the absurdity of this assertion will be apparent to
the most superficial observer of the Greek struggle,
still we cannot help taking this opportunity of
recurring to a question on which we have already offered
some opinion : we mean, the choice of a ruler, who,
from his energy and talents, may be capable of forming a
government in the new state. With respect to the evils
of Greece haring been caused by interference, we
shall merely say, that had it not been for the
sympathy displayed first in Germany, afterwards
in this country—and the subsequent measures of
Mr. CANNING—we are thoroughly convinced that
the Turks, aided by the policy of Prince METTERNICH,
would have long since put down the insurrection, if not
exterminated the greatest portion of the Greek people. Sa-
tisfied as we are on this point, it is needless for us to
express our persuasion that, but for the intervention
which has produced such results, Greece could
never have possessed within itself the means of complet-
ing its political organization. Even the very circum-
stance which is so dwelt upon by the evening paper al-
luded to, namely, that a few titled adventurers have
wriggled themselves into the direction of its affairs, is
calculated above all else to prove the necessity of imme-
diate and active interference. If, as we have all along
maintained—aye, maintained even before CANNING took
up the question—it was the interest of England to favour
the emancipation of Greece, and thus rear at the same time
a barrier against Russian ambition, how amazingly is
not the argument strengthened, by the result of the
recent war ! Insisting, then, as we still do, on the
only line of policy which remains for this
country to follow, how important is it, that
instant measures should be taken for displacing a set
of intriguers, as hateful to the people of Greece,
as they are inimical to England. We, are sure that
the Noble Earl in the Foreign Office has only
to refer to the communications made by the Provisional
Government of 1823, and in the two succeeding
years, to be convinced of the anxiety felt by it,
to cultivate a close Alliance with us. We have
little doubt that the more recent correspondence of Sir
FREDERICK ADAM will have thrown new light on the
subject, and fully confirmed all these previous assurances.
Barbarous as the Greeks may be thought, they
possess a sagacity and acuteness with regard to poli-
tical science, which cannot have escaped travellers. This
quality has enabled them, from the first, to appreciate and
distinguish their natural allies. Among these England
is still considered foremost, nor have all our indifference
and folly destroyed the impression. How desirable is
it, therefore—under these considerations—to take such

steps as shall facilitate the grand object of Grecian esta-
blishment ; and to consolidate a strong and popular Go-
vernment in a. country, which, if once organised, would
become so important a member of the European family !
to effect this,it is indispensable that an able head should be
found. I f the individual,upon whom the reins of that new G-
overnment shall be devolved, possess the requisite qualifi-
cations, we can answer for it. that the people will rally
round his person, and contradict—by their steadiness and
zeal—the calumnies of their detractors.

It is very amusing, to see wbat pains a certain Evening
Contemporary takes to undo all his former doings, and
to acquire even the notoriety of ridicule, when he can•no
longer maintain the reputation of intelligence or integrity.
Not satisfied with the signal triumph which the Courier
has achieved over his clumsiness, he seems determined to
tear off at once the mask which has so long shrouded his
ignorance from the public eye ; and for this purpose he
has relected a subject which requires nothing but the
arithmetical calculation of a fifth-class school-boy to
detect his blunders. " The appearance of a few Catholic
Gentlemen in the list of Sheriffs," having excited the
alarm of some of the High Church Party, the Journal in
question sets about appeasing their disquietude by telling
them that " The number of Catholic Gentry is not to be
judged of by their proportion in the list of Sheriffs, for
the very reason we have stated. They are in the con-
dition of men who have newly purchased lands—there is
always an undue proportion of them in the lists for future
asrvice•aa Sheriffs." Now any uninformed person read-
isbgthis paragraph, would naturally be induced to suppose
that the Sheriffs' lists contained an immense majority of

Roman Catholic Gentlemen, as candidates for the honour
of the Shrievalty : but what is the fact ? Why, in twelve
Irish counties, in which of course there appear the names
of thirty-six gentlemen, there are but five Roman Ca-
tholics !

We have St. Petersburgh Papers to the 10th, and the
Prussian State Gazette to the 24th instant, this day.
The former contains an address by General PASKEW /TSCU
to his troops at Erzeroum ; and in a communication from
the Capital of Russia, we are again apprized of the
ratification of the treaty of peace. The Prussian State
Gazette gives some particulars of the troubles that are
occurring, front day to day, in the East. The impotent
Pacha of SCUTARI ventured to annoy the Russian Ge-
neral GEISMA R, for which hs was obliged to fly ; and
tranquillity is said to be again restored. Greece, it
would appear by these papers, is still in a state of woe-
ful insubordination and convulsion. The subjoined are
our selections :

TIPLIS, Ocr. 16.

Count Pasliewitsch Ecrivansky has addressed to the troops of the
corps under his command the following Order of the Day, dated
Erzerown, 18th September :

" Your military deeds. brave soldiers, have been honoured by
the regard of our most gracious Sovereign, in a manner surpassing
all your expectations. I do not speak of myself—there are no
words to express my feelings for the favours of our most august
Monarch. To you, comrades, he equally directs his paternal re-
gard, enjoining me, in his autograph letter, to say,—' Declare to
the troops my entire satisfaction and gratitude. Their conduct
after the victory is as agreeable to me as the most glorious exploits.'
" Soldiers! These are the words of your Emperor. What re-
ward do you place above this?"

ST. PETERSBURGH, Nov. 9.

We learn, by letters lately received front head-quarters at Adri-
anople, that the ratification of the Treaty of Peace by the Sultan
had been received there. As soon as we shaU be informed that it
has been exchanged for that of his Majesty the Emperor, which
must by this time have reached that city, we shall immediately
communicate the Treaty to our readers, which, according to the
established custom, cannot be published till after the exchange of
ratifications.—St. Pstersbargla Papers, Nov. 10.
