"The last letters from the Levant bring
US certain news that the blockade of the
Dardanelles has received all the ex-
tension that was a2prehended. Admiral
Heyden, instead Of revoking the declara-
ton of Admiral Ricord, has truly confirm
ed it; on the other hand, the Greeks who
have passed the isthmus of Corinth, which
was assigned as their boundaries, and now
masters ofMissolonghi and Lepanto, make
every where declarations of blockade.
"Tbus we shall soon see all the coast
OF the Ottoman empire prohibited to the
French and English merchants. Russia,

belligerent power in the Mediterranean,
and which subsequently seemed disposed
to confine itself to the blockade OF the
Dardaneiles, now extends to all the coasts
Of the Ottoman Europe a net which its al
lies cannot break through.
''Such is the result of the expedition to
the Morea, the effect Of which has been to
encourage the Russians in their enterprise,
and to deliver up Greece to the influence
of their policy. 1t is with the money of
France that the Greeks have Quilted the

TRUE POLITENESS.

Po:iteness is a just medium between
iormaiIty and rudeness it is, in fact, good
nature regulated by quick discernmeut
which proportions itself to every charac.
ter; it is restraint laid BY reason and be-
nevolence on every irregularty Of temper,
OF appetite and passion. 1t accommodates
itself 20 the fanatic laws of custom s. fash
ION, as long as they are not inconsistent
with the higher obligations of virtue and
religion.
TO give efficacy and grace to politeness,
1t must be accompanied with some degree
OF taste as well as deIicacy and although
ITS foundation mus. be rooted in the heart
II IS not perfect without a knowledge of
the world.
In society it is the happy medium which
blends the most discordant nature. 1t inn
poses slence on the loquacious, and in
clines the most reserved to furnish their
share Of conversation it represses the des-
plcable, but common ambition OF being
the most prominent character in the scene;
1t increases the general desire of being mu-
tually agreeable takes off the offensive
edge ofrallery and gives delicacy to wit,
1t preserves subordination, and reconciles
ease with propriety like other valuable
qualities, its value is best estimated. when
it is absent.
NO greatness can awe it into servility,
n" intimacy can sink it into coarse IA
m'lIarIty to superiors, it is respectful free
dom to interiors, it is unassuming good
nature; to equals every thing that is CHARM
ing studying, anticipating and attending
to all things, yet at the same time, appa-
rently disengaged and careless.
Such is true poIteness by people of
wrong heads and UT worthy hearts disgrac.
ed IN its two extremes; and by the gener-
atty OF mankind confined within the mar
row bounds of mere good breeding, which
is only one branch oft.
