 In the meantime the Archbishop of Toledo thinks all will be well if he only exclude foreign books and journals and prevent transations. No mercy is shown to the translation of the psalms of David. The Spanards not very nice in theIr Chronology, | and as David was unquestonaby Jew, the good Archbishop probably deems him affected by the laws against Moors and Jews in that Kingdom old Chris ! tians. latterer wished to compliment Spaish Gran dee compared him Solomon, which the Grandee, not being read in Scriptures, deemed comparing him to usrer or old cloathsman, and considered mor- tai affront. 1t IS dangerous to have Old Tesa- ment name in Spain as a New Testament name in | England

 lively raised to arrest the sanguinary strife, between fanacism on the one hand and serni-barbarous sp- | rit of liberty the other. The struggle has now been carried on long enough to prove that the i. sceptre of Mahomedan despotisin is forever bro ken; and itbehoves the great and influential of Christen ndom to unite in one common effort to stay !
 l Extract of mercantile letter, dated Constantino- pie, May 10 :- Lord COchrane was in the vicinity of Paros, and purchased forty Greek vessels which he was furnishing with rockets and other mplments of destruction.

 fleet. Meantime, Capt. Hastings has taken in the | Gulf of Seo, six Turkish vessels laden with amuni- ton, and has burned four others. He thus has pla- ced the Seraskier, who depended upon these supplies
 in very embarrassing situation. All these accounts
 have considerably irritaed the Sultan and the Divan. | "On the other hand, it is said that Tartar is gone the Dardenells with orders to the fleet not | to quit the Hellespont. After several meetings of
