Meagan and synagogues burnt to the ground. At Sa-
lonics the Turks bad cut the throats of the major part
of the rich merchants. Ail the islands of the Archi-
pelago, except Tina and Scyros, base displayed the
standard of the Cross, and the intercourse between
Egypt and Constantinople was entirely cut off by the
armaments of the Holy League of the Greeks. By ad- ,
vices front Constantinople, we learn that the Sublime
Porte has caused the Reis Effendi to give official assur-
ance to Lord Strangford, the British Ambassador at
Constantinople, that the persons, property, and trade of
the British subjects shall be most perfectly secured.

New Orleans and Charleston Papers, the former

arrived this morning, from which we give the-follow-

" I avail myself of the departure of the Comet to In-
form you of the latest intelligence from Mexico, which
has occasioned much uneasiness and dissatisfaction here
amongst the well thinking and higher orders of inhabi-
tants. The intelligence from Mexico states, that a plan
has been proposed by Colonel Iturbide to the Vice-
Roy of Mextto, for the protection of the Iloly Catholic
religion, and the independence of New Spain. The basis of
this project which was formed in Feb. last, when Iturbide
raised the standard of rebellion, and proposed the esta-
blishment of the Roman Catholic religion, without any to-
lerationorith the erection of a constitutional empire. Don
F'ertlinsndo, the seventh King ofSpain, was to be named
Etnperorof Mexico, and was there to present himself to
take the oath of the Constitution to be framed by the Mexi-
can Cortes; or his brother Francis, or the Archduke
Charles of Attstria, and in default of all these, the Member
of any Royal house that should befixed upowby Congress.
lite know not which we should admire most, the plan
itself or the singular idea of presenting it to the Vice-
Roy for his approval. The amounts from Mexico back
to the 2lst of March, at which time I turbide's affairs ap-
peared to be on the wane, as the great desertion amongst
his followers had compelled him to retire before the ad-
vancing Real forces."
The brig Boston has arrived in 19 days from Faval.
A revolution has been effected at Terceira, in which the
Captain-General was killed. All, however, was quiet on
the 221 April. The private letters received from on
board the Congress frigate are dated the middle of
March. They state the crew of the vessel to have suf-
fered greatly during her passage from Manilla ; died
within ten or fifteen clays of the Cholera Mortars. The
scurvy made its appearance near the Cape of Good Hope,
and there were upwards of 90 men on the sick list at Rio
Janeiro. Mr. Stomper, our former Minister to the Go-
vernment of Portugal, it is said, was to return to the
United States. The Congress, in which he was to em-
bark, is probably arrived by this time in Hampton Roads.

The House of Commons met again, last night, par-
anent to i.djoarnment. The only motion of which
souks had Wei given wee that of Mr. S. NICE,
relative to the printing a Report of the Commissioners
of Education in Ireland. In the course of the dis-
cussion which ensued, Mr. BROCORAM took occasion
to advert to his elaborate Bill for the establishment of
Parochial Schools in England, and to the reasons which
induced him to suspend its progress in the present
Session. flaying noticed at some length the character
and tendency of this important measure, and having the
prospect of approaching leisure for occasionally return-
ing to those subjects of Parliamentary discussion which
merit further consideration, we shall content ourselves
at present with repeating our doubts whether any modi-
fication of the Bill can render it generally acceptable.
Among the topics that were incidentally introduced in
the course of the evening was one which has very
extensively been the occasion of public remark, the
omission of the signature of Professor Asvostoaacnt
in the report of the medical persons which had been
published in The Leaden Gazette. That gentleman is
stated by Sir Ilunsox Lowe to have assisted at the dis-
section ; and the whole of the medical gentlemen pre.
sent, it k added, concurred in the report of the appear-
ance of the parts of the body. Why, then, when the
names of all the other persons of that description are
annexed to the certificate, does that of the Professor
not appear ? We have beard it assigned as a probable rea-
son,that the report being officially addressed to the British
Government, it would have been inconsistent to have it
signed by any other than British subjects: but this rea-
son did not occur to the Marquess of LoNnotsnanay.
who very frankly owned that he did not know why the
omission took place. This acknowledgement will not
remove the suspicion which has prevailed that Pro-
fessor ANTOMMARCIII did not concur in some opinion
with the other medical gentlemen, or that he declined
attesting a statement which was made to give counte-
nance to the report that the deceased bad died of •
hereditary cancer. We need not repeat bow the idea
of that kind of disease has been treated by the faculty
in general here, or for what purpose such a story had
been put in circulation. Can any intelligent man believe
that the place and circumstances of Bonara•Tit's con•
6aement were not sufficient to account for the disease of
which he died. So long ago as the year ISIS, it appears
that Mr. O'Meara, the late surgeon to Napoleon, in a
letter to Mr. Owes's, stated it as his opinion
that the life of BONAPARTE would be endangered
by a longer residence in such a climate as that of St.
Helena, especially if that residence were aggravated by
a continuance of those disturbances and irritations to
which lie had been previously subjected, mid of which it
was the nature of his distemper to render him peculiarly
imsceptible. This opinion it further appears was repeated
by the same gentleman, to the Earl of BATHURST
within the last month, in still stronger terms;
and, indeed, it is evident to every one who has any cape-
dence or knowledge of the effect of mental anxiety that
nothing bass more di rector active tendency to predacethat
derangement of the digestive organs whkh was theocca,
sios of the death.—The other incidental 'abject which
was introduced last night, was the mods, a a motion ,
which recites in every quarter the highest interest. It
was announced by Mr. Hest* that it wits his intention
to seen this day " Mat sa Address be manta to his
