Paris papers to Sunday last arrived this mon*
They contain a representation or remonstrance at
dressed to the King► of Spain, on the 29th ult. trey
the merchants, artisans, and officers of the garriseeif
Madrid. This memorial is not deficient in fried%
or boldness, and complains of the numerous sad sme.
dalous violation of law that had taken place, sad hp.
cially of the constant persecution of that restorer of
Spanish liberty, the heroic General Riego. h
one of these journals, is an extract of a private
letter, dated from Madrid, at eleven o'clock i
same night, stating the commencement of serials
disturbances in that capital; but the channel throoo
which the intelligence comet, gives us reason to hap
it will prove exaggerated. Letters from %oft
the 10th inst. are quoted, stating, that the Spsoki
Ex-minister of Marine, Java, had arrived on Asp.
ceding day at the Lazaretto of Behobia, aolthoth
was to proceed to Paris, charged with a mission fits
his Goverument to the Court of France.--The letters
which have arrived from other parts of Spain email
most afflicting intelligence of the progress of the yel.
low fever. The hopes entertained of its being checked
by the autumnal change in the temperature have, eefor.
innately, not been, realised, and places hitherto exempt
from the calamity, (and among them Cadis) have be.
come the seats of pestilence.

In some respects the cause of the Greeks appearsby
the last accounts to he prosperous. An article from
Corfu of the 15th of October, positively states that tie
Tusks were in possession of only two fortresses is
Candia, and must shortly evacuate that Island. A
letter from Leghorn also states that an Ottoman corps,
which came from Salonichi, had been defeated by
Odysseus. The Greek leaders only ask for amassed
ammunition : the European Adventurers, who arrive
without arms and money, experience a disagreeable
reception. The 'hairier* Murder, however, which
for some time past has not published any intelligence
from Constantinople (probably on account of the ab•
sence of Prince Metternich), contains the followieg
article, remarkable for its decided.tone against theist.
cess of the Greek cause :

" By the last accounts from Constantinople of Oct.lo,
the junction of the Turkish fleet with that of the
tan Bey, and also with several vessels belonging to the
Governor of Egypt, and the Dcy of Algiers, is con-
firmed. The appearance of this fleet has spread terror
in the Morea and the islands.—The Greeks ban elm-
doped Athens, and the Tujcs taken possession of it, tilt
it immediately became a ey to the holes. There is
room, however, to hope that this salatnity has fallen
upon the new town only, which was composed of nine
huts, and that the interesting remains of antiqaity have
been spared by both parties. Some contribution bun
been received at Hydra from foreign countries; liat
this assistance is by no means adequate to the wants's]
perils of this unhappy people. Those who bare not as
yet derived courage from despair look to the future with
trembling."
The French Chamber of Deputies bare been hither-
to occupied with preliminary business. On Thursday
only one more candidate for the Presidency could be
elected, namely, M. de Donald, who had 114 votes,
six above the absolute majJrity, there being no mere
than 215 Deputies present. On Friday, on proceed-
ing to the choice of the fifth Candidate, 214 Delman
voted, and after a scrutiny, the votes were toned far
M. de Vaublanc 108 ; and M. Collard 88 ; on which
the former was declared the fifth candidate for the Pre-
sidency. The Address of the Chamber of Peers to the
KING, though but an echo of the Royal speech. contain
a spirited passage in behalf of the Greeks which we
have quoted in another column. Count Lieven is stated
to have arrived at Paris, from Russia, on Wedeesday-
It is added, that he was to set out in a few days for
London, and that it was believed he was charged with
a mission to his Britannic Majesty. The Prince Royal
of Denmark, and his Princess have had as asthma if
the King of France.
