TILE KING'S VISIT ra IRELAND.

An article in the Ilamburgh papers received last
night, states that, according to the latest accounts the
Greeks have returned to Jassy, having received consi-
derable reinforcements from Bessarabia, and are re-
solved to defend themselves to the last extremity in
the Monastery of Oallata. A detachment of 40
Turks has spread alarm in the districts of Foekscher,
Tekusch and Baken. All the Greeks, Servians and
Bulgarians, ulio fell into their hands, were killed, and
their property pillaged. This detachment retreated
by order of the Paella of I brailaw. It adds that, by
the latest, hut authenticated accounts from Wallachia,
the Turks have given battle to Theodore, whom they
took prisoner and beheaded ; Ypsilanti is stated to
have fled to Cronstadt. From Odessa it is said that
the Turkish Government has compelled all the vessels
in the Dardanelles to deliver np their wheat cargoes at
the market price.—The mail brings ns another strong
remonstrance from the King of Sweden to the
wegian Diet on its resolution for abolishing the nohi-
bility, whence, he sacs, the utmost danger will arise
unless some other monarchical institution is established
in theplace of it.

ANNITEESAIT DINNER HELD IN THE SPRING GARDENS,

In the House of Lords last night the Marquess of
LANSUOWNE called the attention of their Lordships to

a subject highly interesting to humanity. \otwitl►-
st.,nding the determination annoanc•d by this country
to abolish for ever the revolting traffic in our fellow

creatures, and notwithstanding the steps that had
been agreed upon by other European nations, from

our remonstrances, to concur in this desirable crifi, i

has appeared, as our columns have frequently tettilied,
that the odious trade is still pursued by Po tu e with

diabolical activity, and with tou fatal a success

Recent instances of a most flagrant kind were bronchi

by the Noble Marques to their Lordships notice,
which proved on the part of other powers a great de-
glee of laxity in favour of the traffic they professed to
deprecate. The Congress of Vienna, at which our

Early in the morning of the Intl, of June, the bells oi
Chesterfield began a joyful peal to invite the inhabitants
of the town to juin in the festivities prepared for the wel-
come day. About four o'clock a most excellent dinner
was gives by the proprietors of Spring hardens, to all
who chose to partake of their bounty. Mr. Prince, the
Chairman, aided by Mr. Daniels, as Vier President, (both
tradesmen of the town,) had taken great care that every
requisite to form an old fashioned English banquet should
be provided. Too much prai-e canaot be given to the
above named gentlemen for their exertions on this occa-
sion. The heal of their table was graced with a most
excellent baron of beef, aril the whole was covered
with a profusion of good English fare. Sir John liar-
leycora was very busv—his good humour gave spirit to
the scene—he seemed to give ohlivion to old age, and in
the evening united various parties most heartily in the
reels. The toast and the song were given in regular
succession, each twine applicable to the joyous
Here no party spirit reigne.l to disturb time pleasnros of
the occasion: amid during their sports the company were
honoured by a visit from their worthy mayor, S Linnet
Dutton, Esq., with the Town Clerk, and some of the

lighted with their reception, and upon an imitation
joined the happy throng. The 'Warn% were brilliant•

that respect, yet to stimulate and assist their efforts

that an Address be presented to the eotreating
that his MAJESTY would ex, rt all his influence with
Foreign Powers, and especially nit!, F:ance, to abo-

removal of those restrictions whic:s the present laws
imposed. Some anxiety and even alarm were express-

which, to them appeared too bold; but the Resolutions
proposed were agreeil to wiliout division.—On the

in its favour was GI to I I.

Farther extracts from the Bombay papers to the

Letters from Lieutenant Brant of the li. C. Marine,
who has been just released from the clutches of !law°
Waller, speak in high terms of the exertions of Major
Ballantyne and Captain Barnwell, .n obtaining his
release. Lieutenant Grant. ever since his release, has
been troubled with the fever. the consequence of ill-
treatment whilst in the power of Bawa %Vallee. The
tribe of lihaties. by whom lie was made prisoner, are a
ferocious and daring band of robbers ; they are always
at war rapine and plunder are the deities they wor-
ship, and their system of warfare often depopulates
whole districts. We, however, trust that their reign
is at an end. The atrocities only require to be brought
to the notice of our Government to have a speedy ter-
mination.
The treaty between this Government and Scinil, we
are informed, is concluded. The Vakeels of the latter
power will set oat in a few days for this presidency,
on their return home. Captain Sadlier will proceed
immediately to the Scin.li n
