Interesting from Europe.--A late arrival at New.
York has brought intelligence of most interesting
nature from London. BY or foreign news it will DO
seen that MIR George Canning, late Prime Minister
OF Great Britain, died the 9Th Of August last after
short illness. The death Of this most important
character may materially affect the liberal cause in
England, and not only there but throughout the con-
tinent of Europe. We can scarcely conceive Of anv
other man in England capable of filing his place, or
defending his fvorte policy against the intolerance Of
the tory party at the head of which are Mr. Peel and
LORD Wellington. How this Geath may affect Greece
time only can determine. 1t appears also from the
London Times of Aug. 9Th, that the Pacha Of Egypt
has seeded from the dominion Of the Porte and will
no longer participate in the bloody straggle between
Greece and her oppressors. Although this inteIli-
gence appears to be well authenticated still it is al
most too good to be hoped for as true The Greeks
have noby defended themselves against the ruthless
1urks,and their more powerful and better discipned
ally, the Egyptians, for some vears;-let the latter
then be withdrawn and her freedom il secure-.the
Turks single handed cannot cope with her. Every
tn'ng indicates that better days are dawning upon
"reece' Ihe determination of the three strongest
powers IN Europe puta stop the euson of blood;
and IN consequence ofths determination the revolt Of
the Pacha of Egypt to settle the question at
once ageinst Turkish despotsm.
Neo FGpeT.-A prospectus of nc,e paper, abou,to
De established in Hartford, has been recently issued 10
tne public The paper is to be printed on an imperial
sheet with new and elegant type, and deyotedto,he
support Of the Administration, Science. Aor;cu,,nr.
Manufactures, &c. After declaring decided prefer
ence for Mr.. Adams in the presidential controversy
the prospectus says, In supporting the policy Of his
te'eiecoon we pursue path which we believe to be
designated by TRUTH justice and republican principles
should the hand Of malice be aimed at his private
character 1t shall be effort to avert the blow:
ana should his merits statesman be assaed il shall
be our business to defend them In reference TO orr
intended department towards the opposersof the prc-
ent administration, we have only say tina, we shalt
respect those. and those aone ohose actions say that
saey respect themselUsS" We are sincerely gratGcd
10 announcing this intended publication. The Cour-
ant and Mirror although well conducted papers, arc
rather too high toned 10 their federal preudces to
meet the feelings of majority of the citizens Of this
State, and consequently exert no important political
innuence. The Mercury we believe has merely a
nominal existence, while the Times is rakly a, var
ance with the feelings Of the republican party in this
state. republican paper, friendly to the adrnnistra-
tion both of the state and nation cam and we trust,
will, be supported at Hartford. Indeed we have for a
considerable time wondered at the supneness Of the
republican party in Hartford county, in being appa.
rent'y willing to be dictated by the young Hospur
who edits the Tmes and who at best is butts mere re-
peater OF the slang Of his older and more unprinc.
pied brethren Of the N. H. Patriot the N. Y. Eve
ming Post, and the Richmond Enquirer. Although
the business Of Hartford hardly needs an addi,ona,
paper, still the strange course pursued by the Times
editor has "nqesonably driven the republicans there
to the necessity of setting up paper which shall hon.
esty state the views of the republican party not only
there but throughout the state.-Wecau only saysuc.

approve Of the Judgment OF its editors that
