COURT OF ALDERMEN.

At the Court of Aldermen on Tuesday last, Sir James
Shaw, after having beard a detail of the plans of the lewd
Mayor for doing honour to his Majesty on his de-
parture from the metropolis to visit Scotland, and of
the arrangements to accommodate the Members of
the Court on that occasion, very highly commended
the course pursued by his Lordship, which, he ob-
served, reflected much credit urn the city, and me-
rited the special thanks of the Court. Sir James ac•
eurdingly moved a vote of thanks, and that a commit-,
'tee should be appointed to d,ew up the motion.—
Upon this question Sir James, it appeared, expected
no opposition, but
Alderman WAtonaraot said he believed there was
no precedent for such a vote as had been proposed ;
bat nothing had struck him as evidence of extraordi-
nary skill or exertion in what Lad been represented
as deserving the particular notice and approbation of
the Collet; and that it was a collation whether the
part taken by his Lordship was Sot rather ouch as
should have been avoided than pursued, the public
having received a very sufficient intimation that it
was Lis Majesty's decided wish to take his departure

Eerie papers to the 24th inst. have come to band.
They contain letters from Florence and Leghorn
which repeat the accounts already given of victories
said to have bee:, obtained by the Greeks over the
Turks. The basis of this intelligence. consisting of
the communication of Captain Vitali, we forbear the
eepetitian of circumstances already sated. The fol-
lowing partienlars. however, are new The o:eeks
have kept 40 'lurks of distinction as hostages for the
surreoder of Napoli di Romania ; the son of the Paella
who commands in that tows is among the number. The
Hellenists haring ceased, since the entrance of the
enemy iuto the Peloponnesus, to furnish provisions to
the Turks at Napoli di Romania, and the Turkish gar•
Hams having learned the defeat of its countrymen, Na-
poli, according to a convention concluded anteriorly,
will be delivered into the bands of the Hellenists.—
According to letters from Bitoglia, it appears a's,'
that be has beaten Chourschid Fische upon the river
Sperchius, near Zituny, at the bridge of Salantauca ;
and that he has forced him to retreat with coori•ler•
able loos towards Larissa. We have taken Cassaadra,
and the Turks hate caused fresh entrenchments to be
,lug round the city of &lecke. In Epirus our af-
fairs gte on with the same success; but, from the great
force of the enemy, our troops are confined for the
present to defending the advantages they have gained.
The regular corps of Hellenists and that of the Phil
helleniets, in Epirus, bare performed proJigies of,
valour. and destroyed a great number of Turks. The'.
enemy fell upon them with a corps of cavalry very supe-
rior in point of numbers, and would perhaps have suc-
ceeded in exterminating them if a Hellenism Chief of
irregular troops, with forty arquebusiers, had not cut
his way to an eminence, and thus checked the enemy
I until this corps gained time to retire to Cumb,,ii.
The Philhellenists lost upon this occasion sixty of the
best soldiers. Norman is doing well, and the tiermans
have evinced the atmost bravery. May ti,d support them
Our cease ran the greatest danger when the enemy
penetrated and advanced into the Peloponnesua, bat
hie defeat will teach our courageous Hellenists to
brave still greater danger, will inspire the enemy
with fear, and cover him with confusion. We ap-
proach winter, daring which season we shall gain
Itime to put our affairs in better order, and to enable I
as to place ourselves in a state, with the aid of the
Almighty, to act solely apes Ike offensive in the
spring, with fresh troops and still greater success."
The French paper, contain intelligence from Madrid I
to the 10th inst. All was tranquil In that capi,al.

Cortes, as well as the activity of the new Ministry
and particularly the exertions wade by the War.
