ever real national independence the Greeks
may enjoy will doubtless, be due 10 The
good pleasure, or the mutual jealousy and
antagonism of The Pentarchy who now
compose POLITICAL and diplomulic Europe.
They will mainain their annoinled on the
throne, tcagh him to behave better, aud,
in order TO keep him in closer dependence
on themselves, will allow the Greek Ma
Ional Assembly to hedge the royal prero-
gative in accordance with the theories of
liberalism. They have ltle to fear from
that Assembly, which is called for in the
18th proxilno; the numbers and the terri
tory of the Greeks are too small for much
weight in the rivalry and calculations of
the 6veiPowers; the kingdom could scarce
lv now, single-handed, resist The Turks.
The genius and habits of the Greeks are
democratic; they were left in possession
of their municipal freedom. their open
courts of justice on The French model,
and an almost absolute liberty Of the
press. They have many citizens with an
education of lhe best European stamp,
and the considerable advancement of The
classes of the population in contact with
The civilized world and ,s action cannot
be denied; yet no small part of the in
habianls Of the provinces are semi-barba-
rous; and the modern Greek character
has not risen materially in general esti-
malion. Fine things have been written
and spoken about the new kingdom AS a
bulwark against the ambition Of Russia,
and as revival Of glorious antiquity
The more plausible notion is, that i, will
be rendered subservient 10 that ambition,
through the influences of common reli
