"The period having now arrived, when fan form
a tolerably accurate estimate of the quantity and quatity
of the present crops of our staple products, 1 now send
roe some information on that head. The past mason

diately connected with this Market, bas experienced, al-
ternately, the effects of droughts and excessive rains.
Oar estimation of the whole present crop will be 20,000
bales less than that of the last, which, itichnling Ten-
nessee, amounted to 140,000 Miles. The tintiltbly of
Cotton that has come to market is about 14,000
hales, of which about belt was ield. The Ilret sales
were reads at sixteen to seventeen Cents. oaly dote
vessels have sailed, as yet, with cargoes tot
pool ; one for Havre, and one far Marseilles. There
are now two vessel, loading fee the first ipert. and
two for the second. The operations of the Segar Piave
tations in the vicinity go on heavily. A more stinted
growth of Cans has scarcely been known. Respecting
the Tobacco Crops, they are very flattering. The growth
has been good. It is estimated that the crop will be at
least 500 hhda. more than that of last year, and the
prices are very much depressed."

Mr. R. SMITH very properly asked Lord LONDON.-
DERRY, last night, whether any measures had been
taken since the last Session of Parliament, with re-
spect to the loan of tteentymue millions due from
Austria to England. Ilia Lordship answered.
that representations hail been made on the subject,
and negociation‘ mere now pending. We shall be glad
to find this to be true, even if England never gets a
shilling of her money. Bat, we remember that
Lord LONDONDISRRY formerly said, that it was s
subject which England could not pradcatly disH
'cuss with Austria—meaning, we suppose, that
she had intimated, at the time she borrowed the
money, that, although called a luau, it was to
be considered as a subsidy, end. of coarse, never
meant to repay the money. This sum of twenty-use
millions is a serious sum to England in her present
distressed state. The t don has been ever
considered as one of tie greatest folly, sot greatest

We have extracted from the Stamford News, a pr
ragraph stating that a Meeting is to he held at Tier-
ney, which has for ite direct object the considered°,
of Lord Imsnownsany's plan fur the relief of the
Agriculturists. We have great utisfAetion in
seeing that announced. Meetings for the object
should be held in every county in England.
—The more the scheme of Ministers is discussed
by the country gentlemen and their tenantry, the mom
will its delusive character be detected. It is already.
we know, generally laughed at, and despised. Bus
every discussion of the subject will add to the genera
contempt. It is a little curious, that the New Times
(the chief hireling paper of Ministers) has declined to
offer an opinion on Lord Ltrearoot. and Mr. VAINSIT-
TART'S plan for redeeming the Five per Cent. Stock.
" ft is not for us" (the Editor says) " to offer as
opinion on it." Indeed! Why that is simpler,
considering the hot-headed seal of that Journal for
Ministers; and considering also, the fearless manner
in which they have hitherto plunged into and
through every defence necessary to their patrons:—
We most con4ss, however, that the defence of the
Pine per Cent. plan requires more than even
the ordinary audacity of The New limes ; and the
absurdity of the plan, when compared wita the load
professions of Government to p faith silt the
public creditOr, is equal to its injustice.

The proceedings to the Hesse of Coombe*, last
night, on the motion for going into a Committee of
Supply, are highly interesting ; and we call the atten-
tion of oar readers to them, particularly as to what,
transpired respecting EDWARD FINCH Hemet. The
country is greatly indebted to Mr. MDR, for the ex-
posure of abuses, which be is every day making. In
vain, will Mr. CROKER rave against the Honourable
Member, as he did last night: every time be speaks
lon the subject, the name of Mr. -Musts will become
more and more dear to every Briton.

We have very great satisfaction in perceiving, that
the attempt of the Greeks to(' throw off the Terkisb
yoke continues to be *await with every appearance
of success. We have viewed with resell surprise, the
indifference with which that subject bee been gene-
rally regarded bete. The Greeks ar• sodded to our
sympathy, if it were only as they era destwodaets
of the greatest people that history bee male known
to ne. But they are fighting for the canoes( freedies,
which should of itself endear them to -every English-
man. They are contending with a barlieress Boma.

Christian Dation". The indignity with which tit.
Ambassadors of even the greatest of the Christian
Powers are treated at the Turkish Court, Las heett
subject of indignation in every brave man's feeling.
The ceremony attending upon an audience of the
Grand Seignon when granted to an Ambissadol
of any Christian Power, is as degrading to him a•
any form which is exacted at the Court of the
Chinese Emperor. Let the Christian name Le
freed from this long continued humiliation. Let all
Christian natioos join to liberate the Greeks from their
yoke. We ate aware of the danger of aggrandizing
Ressie too much. by each a line of policy. But the
great powers of Europe might interfere to liberate the
Greeks, without germ'allog Russia to take any other
than a limited shartia the enterprise, which should pre-
clude her from all aggreodisement. England and France,
withtbst the aid of any other European State. could
'effect this. England and France would have accom-
plished this, ere now, if the Government of each
country had not fallen into imbecile and ignorant I
bands. The Ministers of France, and the Ministers
of Britain, are too mean in ruled, and too selfish, to es-
pouse so great a cause as that of the Greeks. We
should be glad, Lowe. er, to see the people of this
country deliver themselves from the disgrace of ac-
quiescing in the unworthy policy of Ministers whom
they justly despise. The distresses of the Agriculturists
(which are felt by all who have any heart, and any
love for the country,) it is true, occupy the public at-
tention, almost wholly. We are willing to make every
allowance for the feelings which properly animate Bri-
tons, on this subject. But the Greeks may come in
for a share of our sympathy, without weakening the
other emotion. Indeed, the same generosity which
leads us to aid our 'offering countrymen, with our
united voices, and with all our other means,
will call upon us to amiss the Greeks. Let
something, then, be done to this end; and let it
begin in this metropoli., which has distisguished it-
self so often by its munificence and humanity. Let
us not fall into apathy, when the cause of Linarre is
the cause which demands our protection. •

Advises were received yesterday from Santiago de
Chili to the 29 Oct., which bring a confirmation of
the fortress of Mlloo baring fallen into the possession
of the Patriots on the 224 of Sept. last. Great num•
ben of the Royalists who had escaped from the garri-
son had collected together, to the number of between
three and four thousand, and bad pat themselves an•
der the command of Cantarao; some slight skirmishes
had taken place between them and the Patriots ; but
the latter had driven them up the chantey, and were
keeping up a close pursuit when the advises ease
