It has been reported with the utmost confidence this
morning that Mr. Hamm one of the Secretaries of
the Treasury, is to be Chancellor of the Exchequer ; and
we can only say, that this appointment, should it be
confirmed, would give almost universal satisfaction.

The Paris Papers, which art ived last night, are chiefly
occupied with the lamented death of Mr. CANNING.—
In the Moniteur and Journal des Debats, there are ela-
borate articles on the subject, but that in the former
claims a particular degree of interest, because it ex-
presses the sentiments of the French Government, and
treats the matter in its political relations exclusively.—
We entirely agree with the first part of its remarks, in
which it combats the idea that the loss of that eminent
Statesman and highly-gifted individual, is an irreparable
calamity. As great men as Mr. CANNING (we say
this very deliberately) have disapkearetl within the last
quarter of a century, without any very material influence
on the march of public affairs; and whilst their deaths
were deplored as they ought to be, the system of Govern-
ment underwent very little variation in consequence. No
alteration in the national policy will also ensue from
the present lamentable event, and for the best of all
possible reasons, because that policy is the result of
circumstances, and not of individual influences. The
late Premier had the merit of distinguishing in time
• those controuling circumstances, and the grace of yield-
ing to them. In this respect there is no comparison
between him and the late Lord LONDONDERRY, though
the Moniteur asserts, that they both were ac-
tuated by the same views, and guided by the same
principles, in the direction of our foreign affairs.—
• One nominally opposed the European system, as it
was called, the other was virtually opposed to it ;
but it did not suit the purposes of the Moniteur to point
out this distinction. As to the declat ation which that
Journal has made,in the name of the Fiend) Government,
on the subject of Portugal, we can only say that it was
premature, if it was elicited from a supposition, that the
death of Mr. CANNING would make the slightest change
in our relations with that country. It was also very un-
wise, because it leaves the Cabinet of the Thuilleries only
the alternative of explaining it away, or provoking the
just suspicions of this country. In the meantime, we are
bound by treaty to repel every attempt of a foreign
Power to exercise a direct influence in her affairs; and
we shall not violate our good faith, to meet the notions
of political convenience, or to flatter the unreasonable
prejudices, of France or auy other Power.

We received this morning the Algemeine Zeilung to
the 7th inst. Under the head of Constantinople, 10th
July, it pretends to throw some light on the important
negotiations in that capital. It says that the Ministers
of the three mediating Powers, were then waiting for
further instructions, in consequence of the Porte having
declined their intervention. Since that declaration, how-
ever, notes are said to have been interchanged between
the Russian Ambassador and the Reis Effendi, the
former protesting against the construction put upon
the Treaty of Ackerman, with which, according to
the Porte, the proposals of the Allied Powers are
inconsistent. This protest having become public, the
Reis Effendi addressed a note to M. de RIBEA uri ERRE.
stating that the Divan was greatly surprised at the
circumstance, which was met by a rejoinder that
the Porte had first set the example by publishing
its declaration. It appears from various circumstances,
• according to the same authority, that the Porte was
. already apprised of the intentions of the Courts of :n-
don, Paris, and St. P.:tersburgh, to adopt decisive mea.
sures to enforce their resolution. No apprehensions,
however, were entertained in Constantinople of the de-
piartut e of the Representatives of the three Courts, which •

only shews the ignorance that prevailed there on the
subject. Another opinion prevailed, according to which
the Russian Court had been overruled by those of
France and England, respecting the suspension of
diplomatic intercourse, was equally erroneous, the
contrary being expressly stipulated by the late treaty.
—The Algerweine Zei:nag has copied an as ticle from the
Austrian Übsereer of the 2cl inst. bat which originally
appeared in the Impartial observer of Smyrna, stating
that the greatest discouragement prevailed amongst the
Greeks since the surrender of the citadel of Athens. It
also states, upon the same authority, that the Greek
Government was so much incensed at the capitulation,
that it had resolved at one time to bring the chief
Officers, and even FADVIER, before a court-martial;
but this rumour finds no credence even from the
Austrian Observer. There is a great deal more of
similar twaddle, which we shall pass over, to inform
our readers, that two vessels laden with provisions
and ammunition had arrived at Hydra, as a pre-
sent from the American Philhellene Committee. The
Greek Government was daily expected at Napoli, when
anarchy, according to the Smyrna Journal was at its
height The troops and inhabitants, it is said, were
every moment on the point of coming to blows, and
the Suliots, who were in possession of Fort Palamidi,
are accused of committing the greatest exeessns.—
Cor.:voxstorri was still at Argos, " ilftriguing in-
,itead of fighting," and contriving how he could esta-
blish himself in Napoli, in order to give kw to the
whole Morea. All these allegations, it must be
observed, come from a bitter and uncompromising
enemy of the Greeks. From such a quarter the follow-
ing admission, as a testimony of the unconquerable spirit
' of that people, and their determination to endure every
thing sooner than submit, is of very great importance:—
" But few villages in the Morn have submitted to hart.
HIM. The unfortunate inhabitants of the Peninsula
have for the most part retreated to inaccessible places
in steep mountains, or in caverns, like the beasts of the
field, where they are compelled by Capatanis or Kliphts
to remain, by threats of being treated by them as
enemies:'

We also received this morning Frankfort Papers to
the 7th insL but their contents do not possess the slight-
est interest. We find that the Brunswick Government
has, by a recent Ordinance, abolished the use of the
pillory in all cases except the crime of perjury. Hard
labour and confinement a►e substituted.

Montreal Papers to the 11th of July, and Quebec to
the 18th of July, have been received, but do not contain
any information.
Sincapore Papers, to the 2d of March, have also ar-
rived, but they are likewise barren of news.

Sunday, the Right Hon. WILAfOT.HORTON arrived
in town, from his visit to Ireland.

Viscount GODICRICH arrived at the Royal Lodge, in
Windsor Park, about one o'clock yesterday afternoon, on a visit
to the Kum.

A Privy Council is expected to be held before, or on
Friday next, for the purpose of proroguing Parliament, dm. as
Friday will be the last day on which notice of the prorogation can
appear in the Gerstie previous to the meeting of Parliament on
Tuesday next, that being the day to which Parliament stands pro-
rogued. On the same day, the Recorder of London will make
his report.
'The Duke of Gtoucarratt left town on Saturday
afternoon for his seat at Bagshot. The Duchess of GLOUCISTSA
also arrived at Bagshot Park oa Saturday. from the seat of the
Princess AUGUSTA, at Frogmen., where the Royal Duchess has
been staying some weeks on a visit to her sisters the Queen of
WURTIAISUAG and the Princess AUSUSTA.

Lord MANNERS, the late Lord Chancellor of Ire.
land, arrived in town on Friday from Ireland : his Lordship dined
with the Earl of WESTMORELAND yesterday, at his residence in
Grosvenor-square. The Earl of &nom and a select party met the
Noble Lord at dinner.

The Marquis of LANSDOWN transacted business yes-
terday at the Foreign Office.
The LORD HIGH ADMIRAL has now concluded his
tour of naval inspection, and returned to his official
head quarters in or near the metropolis. The Duke of
CLAaatece has, ever since his appointment, been ren-
dering himself popular with the members of that noble
service over which he has the honour to preside. His
Royal Highness has throughout his tour been described
as conducting himself affably, frankly, and good-na-
turedly, thereby extending to the community at large,
I with which he associated, those favourable sentiments of
his character and intentions which he has won, and en-
deavoured to win,' from all ranks of his raval brethren.

Dispatches were received yesterday, at the Colonial
Department, from the Lieutenant Governor, Major
General Sir JOHN KEANE, K.O B. at Jamaica.—Dis-
patches were also received yesterday, at the Foreign
Office, from Berlin.

His Majesty's ship RATTLESNAKE has arrived from-
Jamaica, with his Excellency the Duke of AIANCHaSTER,
the Governor of that liland, who has left General Sir
JOHN KEANE, Lieutenant Governor in his absence. By
this conveyance we have Jamaica Papers to the Ist ult.
and Bogota Papers to the Bth June. The latter are
of much interest. The Congress has at length decreed
not to accept the resignation of BOLIVAR. 'The
votes wet e, for accepting the resignation, 243 agairist it,

By Gibraltar Papers to the 24th ultimo, it appears
that eight vessels had arrived from 'Algiers and Oran,
nntv•ithstanding the French blockade. The moat re-
markable circumstance is, that three vessels, prize; to
Algerine ctuizers, had been carried safely into port by
the captors. The barbarians continue to detide the Wei
of the blockade, and particularly the boast of the Ad-
miral that h w;ti attack the Mole at Algiers.
Van Diernart's Laid Papers to the 24th of March
have been receivcd at the North and South American
Coffee house. One stihject attracts the entire attention
of thecoloni,ts. A petition, signed by all thef;ee settlers,
is to be prese.,:ed to hi, Majesty, praying that he wo'alu
grant to them a Colonia: Lettislature and the Trial by
