LONDON, Nov. 4.-The attention Of their
MightinesseS represented in the Congress
OF Verona, is generally understood to be
di1ectedto two particular subjects, Greece
and Spain united with Portugal. The
6rst is one that more Immediately interests
Russia and Austria. although for two dis
tinct reasons. Respecting the territories
Of Turkey in Europe. both have long had
the same views; but Alexander has been
the most active, is less impeded, and is in
6ni,ely further advanced in his schemes
than bis rival Francis. The events in
Greece are not however taking TIE turn
either of them could have wished; and 1t
is thought at Congress thAt this will not be
a very difficult topic to regulate, as the
question is more simple and does not al.
feet so many different parties.
The affairs in Spain and Portugal, how
ever, have varied very materially. since
the lime the Congress was originally a
greed upon. That all the Despotic Pow
ere OF Europe should have viewed the
changes effected IN the two latter coun.
tries with fear and trembling, may very
naturally be imagined; and hence they
have wsged moral wa: against them,
| from the time they commenced their new
| systems, and endesvored to overturn them
by every means in their power. All this
has however been Intellectual The new
institutions continue to take root, and g.

already TO admire the Spaniards and Por'
tuguese for what they hear they have done
| and to make comparisons by no means
| calculated 10 reconcile them to their own
| debased situation. The same thing hap
pens in the other countries where the GO
vernments are equally despotc, and these
appalling symptoms naturally enough
strike terror to the hearts OF their rulers
Hence, in their high and mighty wisdom
| lid :hey deem it necessary to counterac

ton, Constitutions, and Moderate Monar'

compared with the object in view. France
