sweated from her present oppressors.—But though
till might be agreed to by some, is it to be inferred
that Russia might be brought to agree to a partition,
when every circumstance invites that Power to make
itself master of the whole? The other Powers, by
making common cause with the Greeks, might in-
sure their independence, but it would require a strug-
gle which but few of them may be willing to en-
counter. A few years ago they were driven to unite
against France; but it seems by no means likely that
they can, for a long time to come, be united against

Russia.
But let us suppose that Russia only aims at pro-
tecting the Christians against the barbarians. If so
may she prosper well in her undertaking ! We frankly
confess that we like not that policy which prohibits
other Christians from assisting the Greeks, on the
mere pretest of maintaining a strict neutrality.. The
Turks are constitutionally, if they have a Constitu-
tion, the enemies of all Christians, and should be held
as such by all the Powers of Europe.

The Paris Journals of Thursday, Friday, and Satur-
day, arrived this morning. They contain little intel-
ligence of importance respecting France, but they
are filled with statements and counter-statements of '
the war between the Greeks and -the Turks. The
victory of Thermopylm, and the capture of Tripp°.
litza, are confirmed; but the Greeks are raid to have
sustained a defeat at Patras. in Constantinople every
thing is agitation and alarm ; and there is as much
precaution taken against any sudden attack as if the
enemy was at the gates. The cause of the Greeks
is certainly gaining ground in the Morea, where, it is
said, their forces amount to 25,000 men.
These Papers contain a variety of intelligence from
Spain, which is far from being of a consolatory na•
tore. Party spirit runs high in the Capital, and in
the Provinces. A private letter from Madrid, of the
14th of November, says, " that a dissolution of the
Monarchy may be almost expected; and that Valen-
cia, Arragon, Catalonia, and Gallicia, are on the
point of separating fr3m the Capital, to form Federal
Republics."
Addresses are pouring in to the KING from several
of the provinces in favour of Rrnoo, whose name is
associated with seditious cries in the capital. " Long
live RlEGO):Envet.or of the Spanish Republic !"
is said to have been a thousond times repeated in the
nightly promenades of the Clubbists.

PARIS, NOVEMBER 23.
M. Latour Maubourg, Ambassador from France
to Constantinople, has proceeded to Toulon, where
he will einbaik. He bears, as a present to the Grand
Seignior, two splendid crystal candelabras, eight
feet high.
Letters from the Tyrol announce an extraordinary
and deplorable event:—A high mountain in the Pus-
terthal, between the ancient bishoprick of RI ixen and
Carinthia, has soddenly moved, and been precipitated
on the little village of Muda. The whole valley of
Nfuda was covered in an instant with earth, rocks,
and trees. It is not known how many persons have
suffered by this frightful catastrophe.
An article from Augsburg states, that the Minister
of Hanover had, previous to the departure of his Ma-
jesty pisesented him, in the name of the country, with
10,000 pieces of gold newly coined, intended to pay
the expenses of the Monarch, which they whimsically
enough state Lord Sidmouth had refused to do out
of the public Treasury of England.
The trial of Illaziau, for the conspiracy of the 19th
of August, was continued on Thursday, and termi-
nated yesterday, when the Chancellor of the Honse
of Peers pronounced the sentence in a public sitting.
Maziau is condemned to five years imprisonment,
and to pay the expenses sal the process against him.
MADRID, NOVEMBER 17.
The Duc de Cadiz, nephew of the King, died on
the 15th, at the Royal Palace of the Escurial. This
event was announced to the Cortes on the following
day by the Minister of Marine.
The inhabitants of Murcia have followed the ex-
ample of the cities of Cadiz and Seville, in addressing
the King in admonitory terms. The dodges refused
to call or acknowledge a Public Meeting for this pur-
pose among the Citizens, but the other Authorities
gave their sanction, and an Address was voted.
A letter from Madrid, in the Gazette de France, of
',the I,3th of November, states, that on the preceding
'evening a body of a hundred men assembled, crying
Down with the Ministers !"—" Long live Riego
The
Officer of the Guard entreated them to retire.—
One of the foremost replied, that it was not the in-
tetttion of the citizens who accompanied. him to dis-
turb the public peace, but only to burn some anti-con-
stitutional Journals, and among others the Universal.
The Officer and the Guard were compelled to use
force to disperse them ; and after firing a single shot
in the midst of the mob, they succeeded in seizing
thirty of the principals, whom they conducted away.
Among them was a Lieutenant-Colonel, whose name

is not given.
A letter from one of the French Physicians at Bar-
celona, dated the 10th of November, states the plague
to be somewhat less fatal, or less rapid in its progress,
but still it commits dreadful ravages. It at first at-
tacked more particularly persons, both male and fe-
