My DEAR Sin—This letter will be presented to you by
Mr.ConstatitineVolterra M artinengo, a gentleman done
of the most distinguished Inmilies of the island of Z. ante,
n ho is on his way to Engh4sd to reclaim against some
arbitrary Acts of time Government of the lotnan States.
Without entering into the particulars of the present
ease, I C3ll assure you, frOM personal observation. that
there is much just cause for complaint in thosiwis!ands.
and should it please the wisdom of the British Parlia-
ment to enter into an investigation of the subject, it.
would produce a good effect for the interests of the
Empire threnghont all the Levant. I myself am hound
by gratitude fur the kind reception which I every where
received from the Greek nation, to do every service in
return which lies in my power, but I would not on this
account offend tie^ honor and integrity of a county
member, by asking Ilium to aid a cause which was not
both worthy of his undertaking, and useful fur the na-
tion at large. One word from an independent man
as you have often proved is worth all time clamour of
the whole opposition, and to speak in plain terms,
though the Greeks themaelves are in part the cause,
I give you my ward that the lonian Government is a
tissue of job., abuses and corruption. 1 cannot COO-

former times -h was said about the intluence of
British gold, but the question is, whether there was
ever a time when British guineas were in such deunand
as at present. The high price of Bills has induced
those who are making. remittaucee, to seek for guineas
in the vaults of some of our banks, which have been
ransacked of st veral thousands and purchased at a
great premium ; but the demand becoming great, and
the increasing premium on them creating alarm, it has
been thonght adviseable to retain them for the United
