STAR OFFICE, THREE O'CLOCK.

We stop the Press to state, that the French Ambassa-
dor has left Madrid, but that his Charge d'Affaires re-
mained there. This information, which may be de-
pended on as a fact, was received in town this after-
noon, by express, from Paris. It is added that the
Pubic Authorities at Lisboa are discussing the pro.
ject of an amnesty.

After writing the above, we received at a late hour
the Etoik of yesterday. Its contents are highly im-
portant, as it announces in the most positive manner,
on the authority of letters from Madrid of the 19th,
brought by an Extraordinary Courier, that the three
principal Leaders of the Portuguese Rebels have-been
delivered up to as escort.of Geos d'armes for the pur-
pose of being immediately conducted to the French
frontiers. In addition to this interesting information,
which may be considered as conclusive with respect te,
the pacific disposition of the Spanish Government, it
stated under the head of Madrid, 15th March, that
the basis of a friendly arrangement between Spain and
Portugal had been agreed upon, and that Count
d'OIAUA had just received from the Spanish Treasury
the sum of 60,000 francs, to defray the expenses of his
journey to London, to which place he was to proceed
immediately, upoa an extraordinary mission. This
last piece of intelligence is given on the authority
of the Memorial Bordelais ; and connected with the
former, it incontrovertibly proves, in our opinion,
the determination of the Spanish Monarch to make

the concessions, required of him by Portugal and her
Ally. It afterwards places in its list of diurnal lies,
the following statement in the Qsi otidiemee of the day
before, "It is now proved that the Dods was wrong in

announcing the disarmament of 3000 Portuguese rebels."
The Etoile also gives an extract from the Austria•
Observer, under the date of Constantinople, 28th Feb.
which confirms the defeat of the Greeks before
Athens. It appears that they had prepared two ex-
peditions for the relief of that place, or rather of
the citadel, one by land, and the other' by sea.-6
The latter, which consisted of two thousand men, wars
commanded by Colonel Goa Dow, and set out from
Salamis on the ith of February, towards nightfall,
debarked the same night at the Pireus, where it

threw up some intrecchments. The land expedition,
consisted of twenty-five hundred men, under the
Greek Generals VAsso and BOURBACHI, and ap-
proached by the way of Eleusis. Upon this di.
vision the SILRABRIER made a sudden attack, com-
pletely defeated it, and made 200 prisoners, in-
cluding Bouasocul, as well as two Frenchmen and one
German, who had attached themselves to the Greek
,cause ; all of whom were immediately executed, ac-
cording to the barbarous customs of the Turks.—
After this success the &RAMER marched against
the division which had taken post in the Pireus, and
carried, after a brave resistance, several entrench-
ments which the Greeks had thrown up, and was pre-
paring to attack the remainder of the works when the
last accounts, which are dated the 15. h February, left
Salamis.

We also received, this morning, Dutch Pipers to 1
the 20th, and Hamburgh to the 16th, bet they contain
no political news. They mention, however, a number

disa fern,

to hand this morning. We extract the following article,
which is the only one that possesses any interest :

HANOVER, Maicv IS.

His Royal Highness the Duke of CUMBERLAND
has been suffering for some tune by an alarns;ng
disorder in his eyes. Though the medical Gentlemen
who were consulted did not dissemble that an operth
tion on the diseased eye might prove unavailing, h
Royal Highness, however, had it performed on the sth
of this month ; Dr. GRAIIPS performed it with so
much skill and success, that the most favourable hopes
may be entertained. The Prince had not communicated

his intentions to any persoo, so that the Duchess and
the persons about hi: Royal Ilighne.s had no intimation
1 of it till she lennt that the operation had been act ually
performed, and that all the appearances promised a
complete cure.
According to the last bulletie, dated the 19th, his
Royat Highness had passed the 12th without fever. He
had left his bed for the first time, and sat up for several
hours, The eye was free from pain, and the inflamma•
tion trifling.
