Turks loudly blame the toe greatindulgence of the
Sultan, and affirm that there has been treachery
ON the part of those whom the Porte has hitherto
considered its friends and allies. The Greeks, on
their side, express uneasiness respecting the main
tenance of the orthodox Greek Church under the
Government of Prince Leopold, and fear, from his
connection, an influence which may be injurious
to the political and commercial interests O fGreece.
The Fanariots, or Greeks of ConstantinopIe,
say, that the newSoverelgn will encounter great
er difficulties than Count Capo D'Istria. because
the spirit that prevails in Greece is wholly incom-
patible with the monarchial principle; and that
the Prince cannot f1atter himself With the hope of
support from the higher classes of the nation"
The following letter is of later date, and more
satisfactory In its purport:-.
".4ncOna. .4pra l9-The President of Greece.
on receiving official notice of the choice of the
Prince of SAKE Coburg to occupy the Throne of
Greece, has issued a proclamation, which has been
received by the people with demonstrations Of

LONDON, May 6.
: We adverted Yesterday to the parties ofSwiss,
who have lately taken their passage from Havre
TO New York, and we commended the foresight
and prudence displayed in the mode of their en-
~isration. To-day our letters from Liverpool
stated that some of our cOuntrynen proceeding
from that port to the back settlements in the u.
States, instead Of going by New York, proposed
to SAIL to New-Orleans and thence go up the Mis-
sissippi in steam boats until reaching the Ohio.
The American ships the Great Britain and the
Oxford lately sailed from Havre for New-York,
having 4 large humber ofSwissa griculturalists On
board. Seven or eight ships have already, with
in the last month carried away from 500 to 600

1t is pleasing to observe that these ColOnists, on
their arrival at Havre so far from desponding.
manifest, on the contrary an air of gladness and
hope so seldom to be met with on the cOuntenances
OF other strangers about to leave their country.
Far from being reduced by want, to eXpatriate
themselves. most of the Swiss proceed to the u.
States for the sole purpose Of turning to greater

A good many of them are known to possess from
So 900. 40, 900 even to 80, 900 francs SPOOL. J
The cash which they have exchanged, for bills
from merchants enjoying their confidence, prove
the truth of this fact. They travel in wagons,
containing sometimes as many as from % to so
individuals. from the cantons to Havre. On the
road thev have no other lodging or shelter but
these wagons, which on the arrival, they sell, to-
gether with their horses and gear.
