STOCK EiCIIANGE, TWELVE O'CLO'CK.
The market opened heavy this morning, owing, it
is supposed, to the errand on which Lord Walpole has
gone to Vienna.

A Ilail has arrived this morning from Malta.' The
packet left Malta the 15th of June, and Gibraltar the'
11 th of July. A snail has also arrived from Rio Ja-
neiro, which left Rio the 22d of May, and Pernam-
buco, the 15th of Julie. •

Paris papers to the 26th inst. are somewhat scanty witl►
respect to intelligence respecting the Greek Insurrection.
An article dated from the borders of the Danube, July
14, says, that letters have been received direct fron►
Constantinople, announcing, as certain, that the Aus-
trian I nternuncio, Count de Lutsow, had offered his
mediation in the several differences between the Divan
and the Russian Ambassador, but that it had not been
accepted. The same letters also make mention of a
sort of declaration cl the Porte to ti►e Ambassadors of
Foreign Powers, informing them of the subject of its
complaints against Russia. (Here the article in the
French paper terminates abruptly, in consequence of
an excision of the censor.) The news of the Pacha
pf
Egypt haying refused assistance to the Porte assumes
a degree of probability. Ile has, it is said, simply
engaged to furnish the Ottoman troops stationed on
the coast, with grain. It is even added, that the

agents of the Pacha of Egypt cultivate a very strong
intimacy with persons of influence in the Archipelago
and the Morea. Mahornet Pacha has a fair chance of
adopting towards the Porte the conduct of Ali Pacha.
Letters from Corfu of the 20th ult. state, that part
of the -English fleet in the Mediterranean has arrived
off their coast. Sir John Moore is expected with the
rest of his forces, which have quitted Naples and
Malta.
Advices frOm Fray kfort, dated July 19, mention the
arrival there of Lord Stewart and his Lady. Count
Lieven, the Russian Ambassador at the Court of
London, arrived on the 29t1► ult. at St. Petersburgh.—
It is affirmed, that he is the bearer of very important
despatches to his Government.
On the 20th July, a Courier of the British Cabinet
was sent off with despatches for London, from Bru•sels.
Prince Leopold landed at Calais on the '2lst just.—
Ile immediately set out on his way to Paris.
The Vrai Liberal, a journal of Brussels, is under
prosecution for having copied an article from The
Time Newspaper.

The papers which had previously arrived, repeat the
dismal accounts n•e mentioned yesterday. respecting
Smyrna, with additional horrors. These accounts are
said to be dated two days later than those we had pre-
viously received from The 3fauilear, and predict
nothing less than the entire destruction of that ancient
and opulent city. From a comparison of dates and
other circumstances, however, we have reason to hope
that this intelligence relates to the occurrences that
had taken place at the commencement of the massacre,
and that the destruction of the town had been prevent-
ed. From what we have also learnt through private
channels, we have reason to hope, that the narratives
we have received from France may be exaggerated.—
The Christians of ili,ferent denominations in Smyrna, we
are informed, are ealenlateil to amount to 60 or 80,000,
and to comp.,se nearly one half of the population of
Ithe place; and it is not to be supposed that the re-
sistance of such a multitude would be tame or noa-
' Tailing. Still enough of the accounts appears too
probable not to fill the minds of civilized men with
horror, and to justify the interposition of every go-
vernment that professes Christianity or humanity. If
Russia require an apology for entering Turkey in a
decisive attitude, the outrages that prevail there are
fully sufficient to afford it. It is hardly possible, in-
deed, if only half of what we heir be true, that she
can longer forbear. With such barbarians as the
Turks, negociation, at the present crisis, can be of no
avail. Nothing but force can have effect. This
opinion we know has been acted on with respect to
the Government of Algiers, and the expediency of the
application has hardly been called in question; asd
on much less occasion than that which now occurs
we ales remember that the Government of Constanti-
nople was menaced. What now restrains the naval
force of Britain from assuming on the coasts which are
bathed with Christian blood. that attitude which
would arrest the blows of the inarderen ? Where
now are the squadrons by which the British power
was respected in every quarter of t►e globe ? How

was afforded by a French commander. But it is not
enerail to afford protection ; it is necessary to strike
autole wit 1e , and to avert the danger of national jealousy
g European States, why not make common
cause of that service, as was done in the case of the
Algorine Expedition, and join our ships in proper
numbers to the naval forces of the Netherlands and
Frahce ? If this be done, combined with a resolute &d-
-eanss of the armies of Russia and Austria, an effec-
tual stop would soon be put to the effusion of Chris-
nom and innocent blood.—lt is announced in a letter.
Ptitis Leghorn that the Algerines and Tunisians are
meaning to aid the Porte against the creeks. If this
' wild prove the case, it will furnish a strong adtli-
'onel reason for the combination urged.
The journey of Lord Illatrot.E to Vienna has for
its object, it is understood, (says a Morning paper) to
persuade Austria to concur with us in some measures
for frustrating the views of Russia with respect to
Turkey. France, it is said, is as much alarmed at the
peesent aspect of affairs as our Government, and ready
to join with us and the Government of Austria in the
above object. It is wished to endeavour to prevent,
if:possible, the advance of a Russian army on Con.
stantinople, but at the same time to withdraw the
Greeks from the dominion of the Turks ; at all events,
to obtain for them the independent possession of the
Mores and the Greek Islands. No friend to humanity
would wish to sec the Greeks again placed at the mercy
of the Turks ; but the greatest difficulty will be to re-
concile the Turks to such an arrangement ; though
this difficulty, it is apprehended will not be insur-
mountable. There is no question, but that the con-
duct of Russia has filled Ministers with very great
alarm. .The Emperor Alexander has always, indeed,
personally given the strongest assurances of his pacific
intentions; but the acts of many persons in the employ
of Russia, betray intentions of an opposite nature.
Even they who have the strongest reliance on the sin-
cerity of the Emperor, must allow Ora there is but too
much ground for apprehension.

EXTRACT OP A LETTER FROSt QUEBEC, JUNE 11.
Among the many projects which have been contem-
plated iu the present depressed state of the trade of this
Colony, with a view to open a new field for our industry,
nou4 appears to be better calculated than that of open-
ing a communication with Halifax, and the fishing sta-
tions in the Gulph, by means of steam-boats. Vessels
of this description now run regularly from New York to
Charleston, South Carolina, New Orleans, and the
Havanna, a navigation exposed to the whole swell of the
Atlantic Ocean. The irregularity of the usual commu-
nications with Halifax and the fisheries, with the long
pas:Ages owing chiefly to calms in the summer season,
togeper with the want ofproper information, keep down
the groinniercial intercourse between those parts and
Quebec. It is well known that Nova Scotia and New
Brunswick will receive a great part of their supplies
from the United States ; even our fisheries draw a con-
siderable portion of their supplies from the same
quarter. .
[FROM THE NORFOLK HERALD, JUNK 13.]
The United States sloop Peacock, which sailed for
Ci vita Vecchia, the 13th of April, whither she was sent
by Commodore Bainbridge, to receive from Rome the
monument of Washington, for the state of North Car-
blena. It was brought in the Peacock, to Algesiras,
where Commodore Bainbridge received it on board the
Columbus, it being so large that it could not be got
down the hatches of the Peacock, but was lashed to the
deck. It this situation it was not deemed safe to trust
it across the Atlantic. It is to be put up in two pack-
' ages, each weighing four tons.

By letters recently received from Sonth America,
we learn that death has made great havoc among
the troops which sailed from this country. The fol-
lowing. officers are particularly mentioned :
Major Tons, from London, died of a fever at An-
gostura.
Captain Heinson, from Hambnrgh, died of a wound
he received at Santa Mutsu; this gallant young offi-
cer had distinguished himself in several battles.
Captain Cockett, from London, died at Angostura,
of fever.
Lieutenant Schroeder, from Hanover, died at An.
gostura, of fever.
Lieutenant de la Hanle, from London, died at Mar-
garette, of fever.
Lieutenant Dailey, from London, died at Marga-
retta, of fever.
Lieutenant Caseley, from London, was killed at the
battle of Bottaear ; he received a ball through the
head while charging the enemy up the mountain, and
died at the moment of victory, he was a brave odicer,
and is much regretted by the army.
Lieutenant Arckenstal, from London, died of a fe-
ver on the march to Novo Granada, one of the great
mountains.
Captain Hever, from London, died at Angostura, of
fever.
