BAHIA, Faa. 13.—0 n the 10th instant, at five in the
morning, burst forth in this city, a Revolution as unex-
pected as it had been brilliant in its success. As in
Portugal, it was brought about entirely by the troops ;
some feeble efforts were made ay the Commander in
chief. to stop its progress, in which his own servant,
two of his officers, a soldier, and a Negro lost their
lives—the only blood shed on this important occasion.
A Jnnta is formed to govern the Province till the
King shall have accepted the Constitution, which is to
be that of Portugal, and till its completion the Constitu-
tion of Spain is to be acted upon.
The troops of the line and militia, in all about 12,000
men, have sworn to the new Constitution, and prepara-
tions are making to resist any force which may be sent
against this place. it is probable, however, that no
hostile steps will be taken by the Government at Rio ;
the folly of such a proceeding mast be too obvious.
Pernambuco Is expected to rise the moment the news
of the events which have taken place here shall reach
them.

A Dctch vessel, which I have been this moment in-

formed is on the point of getting under weigh, enables
me to give you the above hasty particulars. A direct op-
portunity will soon be afforded me, when you will re-
ceive more detailed information. _

Business is entirely at a stand fot the present, but
tranquillity and confideace will soon be restored.
In addition to the above, the subsequent account has
been gives from an authority on which we are assured
we may depend
The Govt. nor was aware of the conspiracy to its full
extent, and wentioss that he had not the power to

The Courier F►ancais, of Wednesday, came to hand
last night by express, and has hropglit the following
ititeresting articles relative to the Greek Insurrection :
Extract of a communication from Kolokythia, in the
Morea, the country of the Mainotes
A great number of the most distinguished Greek fa-
milies of the Peloponnessus have arrived in our neigh-
bourhood to rut themselves under the protection of the
free and armed Mainotes. A part of this brave nation,
who descend from the ancient Spartans, has taken arms,
and set out to join the Suliuts beyond the Isthmus of
Corinth.
FROM PATR WM, MARCH 17.—The Caimachan, a
lieutenant of the Pacha of the Peloponnessus, sent yes-
terday for the beads of the Greek clergy, and the princi-
pal Greek inhabitants, to summon them to have all the
Greek inhabitants of this town disarmed. The sight of
a certain number of armed Greek vessels rave him the
more uneasiness, as a report was generally 'initiated in
Patrasso and the etiviruns, that these vessels had just
destroyed the part of the Turkish fleet laden with an►•
lonia:ion fur the troops employed against Ali Pectin.
The Greek inhabitants of Patrasso, firmly believing ip
the advantage said to have been gained by their coon-
tryn►en over the Tutkish fleet, positively refused to de-
liver up their arms, notwithstandiug the application ,
made to them for that purpose by the Greek Bishop, in
the name of the Caimarban ; they answered only " Let
them come and take the•om." At the moment the letter
was coming off, the foreign Consuls were fortifying
themselves in their houses, in the fear of a serious en-
gagement between the Turks and the Greeks.

Marshal Reurnonville died yesterday at three o'clock.
Two Piedmontese of distinction were arrested on the
10th instant at Lyons. It is said that they played a con-
spicuous part in the commotious of Turin and Ales-
sandria.
Mr. Cannieg returns to Paris. He is expected in this
capital to-day.
Sir Thomas Maitland, the British Governor of the
lonian Islands, arrived in Paris on Sunday, with seve-
ral of the officers of his staff. ifis Excellency alighted
at the Hotel Nelson, Rue Neuve St. Augustin.
Accounts from Modena of the ith of April say, that I
the students of that city have attempted a trifling insur-
rection, after the manner of the Carbonari, but that the
attempt was soon put down. Three of the insurgents
have been arrested, and the others have returned to their
duty.—(Gazette de France.)
Several witnesses have already been summoned to ap-
pear
before the Court of Peers on the seventh of next
month, the day on which the debates will open, respect-
ing the conspiracy of the lath of August.
The following intelligence has reached us (Condit"-
(ionise') from Greece, tin Germany :
" In several of the isles of the Archipelago the Greeks
have ituited the example of their countrymen iu other
provinces, by raising the standard of insurrection against
the Turks.
" The ttoops which the Porte has successively sent
from Constantinople to the bled Candi& have been van-
ished. The insurgents, after snaking great carnage,
took possession of all the farts in the Island, on which
they have hosted the independent flag. A Greek squa-
dron, consisting of vessels well armed, is united off the

Isle of Idea.
Finally, to heighten the difficulties of the Ottoman
Government, it is announced that an insurrection has
also broken out in the Mores, and that a considerable
number of Turks have been massacred in several quar-
ters of that province.
"Many Greeks from Bulgaria have joined the corps
of troops commanded by Prime Ypsilanti. Another
body has been organized by a Greek named Karabia.
The Porte has declared Prince Alexander Sums a trai-
tor. It is affirmed that two different parties in Wallachia
have declared against the (Montan authority; but that
there is a want of harmony between themselves. It is
added that fortune has become favourable to Ali Pacha,
and that he now numbers no less than 25,000 men
under his standard."

A new Congress to he held in this capital is talked
of, which will be attended by several Sovereigns who
were not present ;at the conferences of Troppau or those
of Laybach.
The affairs of Moldavia and Wallachia remain in the
same state. We arc ignorant of the effect which that
insurrection has produced at Constantinople, especially
since the explanation% which the two Imperial Courts
have given on that subject. Meaow•hile the report is
current that the famous Ali Paella has abjured Islesuism
and embraced the Greek religion; by which means he
expects to engage a great party in his favour, under ex-
isting, rircmnstances.
FRAKFORT, APRIL I9.—The Gazette de Neckar says,
the reports of the continued march of Russian troops
and of fresh armaments of other Powers, are fables by
which it is sought to agitate the public mind. The Vi-
enna journals appear to be pacific. The Austrian Ob-
server of the 1211. April, usentioning an article in the
Alusiteur respecting the revolutionary plots in Italy,
Spain. France, and England, says, " every thing is de-
%ideal by the success of the Austrian arms at Naples and
in Piedmont. The disturbances of Turkey will have no
influence on the general peace of Europe; and the era
is not far distant when the people will enjoy with tran-
quillity the benefits of civilisation."
The report most generally credited is that of a grand
assemblage of Sovereigns at Vienna.
tlcxos, APRIL 14.—'rhe Casette of this city contain s
two proclamations of the Count de Osneys, in which h e
speaks only of oblivion of the past, and his ardent
wish for the maintenance of good order in the city and
duchy of Oenoa.
An order of the Director-Oeneral of Police enjoins all
strangers who have been for the last four days in the
city and suburbs of Genoa, to quit them within 24 hour s
unlesslhey can justify the continuance of their stay on
their own affairs, by a certificate from the Consols. Per-
sons transgressing. this order shall be arrested, as also
the innkeepers, who will Dot give the information re-

quired by the ordinance.
By a letter received yesterday from Turin, his Excel-
lency General Latour gives an assurance to the city of
Genoa that the garrisons of the duchy shall be composed
only of Pietionontese troops.
NAPLES, APRIL G.—Conformably to the intentions of
the King, who has declared that Ise will recognise nothing
which has been done from the sth of July, 1320, to the
3d of March, MI, the Provisional tiovernment have just
promulgated a decree which annuls the nominations of
all the diplomatic agents who received any mission from
the Revolutionary tioveratnent. Amongst them are :
Prince Cariati, who had been appointed ambassador ex-
traordinary at the Court of the King of France ; the
Duke de Caravanza, to that of Spain; the Prince (Awhile,
to that of England ; the Chevalier Brands, Charge
d'Affaires, and Secretary to the embassy at the Court of
France, he.
Tout :a. Amin 11—'ire learn that the legitimate order
has been re-established fur three days past at denoa, by
the co-operation of the national guard with the Pro-
visional Junta. This Junta itself bas been reastalled
by the Count de Dewy., as tkverner-General.

• Gazette of the 12th of April gives, it a
the following detaiis of the etas.•
dell and accompanied the occupation 0(
by the faithful troops of the King aid

Escaped from Novara and Turin, the rebels joined
near Alessandria, under the command of Anttaltli, oat of
the principal promoters of the revolution. Alessaadria
was provided with every thing that could render its des
fence long and difficelt. There were in the place
pieces of cannon, and 79 bombs or mortars.
After the repeated boasting ref these enthusiasts, ay
from their manner of writing and acting, a vigorous re-
sistance might have been expected ; but the defects sad
extravagance of their plans combined, determined them
to anticipate thesmoment in which the place should W
totally invested.
From 3,000 to 4,000 of their hest troops disbanded,
Ansabli had only 600 men remaining, with whom lke
took the route of Genoa. These 600 men formed
corps of students which had assumed a name eery worthy
of it—the corps of.Vincreet. On the 11th, at noon, tb
Austrian troops occupied the city and fortress of Ales—
andria. The next day, at the same hour, the Commander.
in-Chief, Count Bubna, toads• his solemn entry ; the
keys of 11w place have been sent to Laylsach by a cou-
rier extraordinary, who is alto the 1%-arer of the standard
which was to serve as a signal for a general revolt in •
Italy. Novara, Casal, and Alessandria, occupied be
military, present a more than snffscient security fur tie
tranquillity of that part of Italy.
It is said here that General Santa Rosa, Dr. Criva,
and other revolutionists, to the number of 300, Jim,
made their escape to the Genoese coasts, where they ace
seeking for a passage to Spain.
M stows, Aram 17.—(11y an extraordinary convey.
ante.)—The snail, which left. Paris on the 7th, was car-
ried off between Matirigelo, and Serum, by the tiuerill.:
of Merino, the curate of Vilnitiado. These bands increase
on all sides ; and if the lioverntnent does not take rigor-
ous measures, sae shall soon be here in the same sties,
during the French domination—that is confusion.
The law of exception, which has been adopted bid*
fortes, and of which we give the details, puts under Ow
judgment of the military authorities those accused of
conspiring against the constitutional system. It remark.
ably adridges the forms far this description of preced-
ing, the deputies thinking that the most expedition
means were the best in these circumstances of term
The decree consists of thirty articles.
After the approbation of these articles by the Corte,
several deputies proposed additions, which were referred
to the examination of the commission.
The English Ambassador, Sir Henry Wellesley, will
set off this evening fur Paris. Mr. Harvey remains, as
his Britannic Majesty's Minister at Madrid.
The instruction of the procedure against the priest
Don Mathias \limes& is terminated. The pnhlic debates
will take place immediately. You know that the ac-
cused is the author of a plan of counter-revolntion.
seized among his papers. This business sirongly inte7-
eats the public curiosity. Mr. Virtues', it is said, ap-
pears very tranquil, and reckons upon contiagtrimivit-
antly out of the trial. It appears, however, difficult fer
him to refute written shocumenfss
which appear to lean
no doubt of his projects.

A detailed account of the revolution in Bahia is is•
sorted in a preceding column. These details ar
given in the morning !area, as if the affair had not
been previously Loosen, and arc said to have been
brought by a ship which left Bahia on the 14th of Fe•
bruary. Yet if our readers will look back to TP:
Stoic:man of the Ilth instant, they will find we as-
nottneed, that letters, were then in town from Bahis,
of that very date, the Ikb of February. Those 'e-
ters stated that " at the above:date Bahia was perfectly
tranquil, and the inhabitants waiting with the utnto,t
anxiety on the subject of Portuguese affairs." Tie
details, however, arc valuable, as exhibiting the ob-
ject and accompanying circumstances of the resole
tion, and as demonstrating the conccrrence of tie
people with the measures of the authors of the change.
This change like others of a similar kind that Itav,.
taken place of late in Europe, appears, from the sig-
natures attached to the Resolutions agreed upon, to
have been mainly brought about by military wee:
and, on that account, may be exposed to reproaches
similar to those which have already been obnoxious to
the Holy Allies. In inch a state, however, we canno:
conceive that the soldiers have acted iu any maim
that can justly give ofknce to those who ars must
jelous of military interference ; or in any tear
that has not a tendency to preserve the public
peace and promote the public good. From the 10°'
meet the Portuguese nation decided on the Or
they have taken, it was obvious their Colonies twirl

means of protnoting their mutual interests sad
avoiding the horrors of a civil war. This Otis

change in the councils of the Court. While the go"‘
and the people of Portugal and its colonies will tl.ss
consult their proper interests, we are aware they nal
proportionally give umbrage to those in Europe wll4
have arrayed themselves against alt innovation.
It
may furnish another motive to the llo!y Allies, to urgs
them to assail the Spanish nation, whom they regard
the model and the incentive of the recent revolutions.
If the news in circulation respecting them be tree,.
that assault is soon to he commenced. In a Vienna
article, in :he French papers, it is said, Every thin_
announces that our whole army is ahont to
be pnt on
the war footing, and that the Landweh be
