Edwardsville spectator. [volume] (Edwardsville, Ill.) 1819-1826, 1822-03-05

\ ave congratulate you, sire, u2oa
your continued amicablc relations with
foreign powers, in the just confidence
that peace SO precious has not been
purchased by sacrifices Incompatible
with the honor OF the nation, and The dig
nifty Of your Crown"
OF course it is meant to be inslnua'et
that the King has not interlered with sui
ficient vigor, with respect to Turkey ana
Russia. The King, in his answer, re-
Dukes the Chamber for indulging a sup
position that he could ever consent to sa-
crifces unworthy of the nation he go
verns and the crown he wears. The adj
dress and the answer of The King were
delivered last Friday night. They are
contained in the Moniteur of Saturday.
In this state affairs remained when our
messenger left Paris; but it is probable,
and, indeed, generally expected, that the
Chamber will be dissolved forthwith, Or
that there will be change Of ministry.
" The Minister'S" says private letter,
I" rendered to the King, immediately alter
his reply to the Deputies, their resigna-
ton, which his Majesty refused"
The same letter adds" 1t is suppos-
ed the Chamber will be dissolved as soon
as the King shall be assured by his
Ministers that the future nominations
will be less hostile to the policy and
principles of his government"
Nor is THE oil. The eitua,ion OF Of
fairs in the east Of Europe has assumed
Very different aspect from what we ex-
pected. Persia, according to private
letters, has not only declared war against
Turkey, but has actually commenced
hostilities in Asia against the Turks
The fact is stated positively and it is in
ferred that this would not have been done
without some previous concert or COM
munica,ion with Russia, and that Russia
will put her armies in motion against
Turkey as soon as military operations
can be undertaken from the banks OF the
Pruth.
.Nsw administrator in the Ministry.
The Right Hon. Robert Peel, sue
ceeds Lord Sidmouth in the office OF
Secretary of State for the Home Depart
ment-but his lordship, we believe, will
still have a seat in the cabinet. The
Marquis Wellesley and Mr.. Gouburn
succeed Earl Talbot and Mr.. Grant, as
Lord Lieutenant and Chief Secretary for
Ireland. The successor of Mr.. Gou-
burn, in the Colonial Department, is not
yet finally arranged-it will be difficult
to find gentleman Of equal abilities, &C
tivity, and experience. 1t is not true, as
has been hinted, that Mr.. Canning is go
ing TO India. The Duke Of Montrose
succeeds the Marquis Of II crford as LORD
Chamberlain.
AT a late hour this morning, We were
favored with the perusal Of letters
brought by the Turkey mail, dated Con
s.an,inople, Oct. 25. On the Gath, an
official communication was made by the
Turkish yovern,c emf to the foreign AM
bassadors, of the total defeat ofthe Greek
fleet, which took place in the Bay OF
Kolokythia-33 vessels were taken, and
nearly as many destroyed.
