'rtue 11ledrta (;azelte, whicih we have received, up to the 22d, con- tains only the following article of the least interest:-," His i,aI jesty, yielding to the wishles of the Count d'Ofalia, has relieved him from his charge as first Secretary of State, and appointed in his place Don Francisco de Zea Bermudez," &c. If we may believe a rumour which is in circulation, a Royal or- dinance is about to appear, to prorogue, till December next, the session of 18924. It is added, that that of 1825 will open on the Cth of January following, so that there will be an interval of only a few davs between the two sessions. Colonel Gauchais, who was recently acquitted by the Court of Assizes at Toulouse, of the charge of bearing arms against France in the Spanish campaign, is to be conveyed to Poitiers, in order to be tried as one of the acconmplices of the late General Berton. The 16 prisoners who were discharged have ord'ers to quit Toulouse within a lixed period. A few days ago a Colonel of the Belgian light-horse, in garrison at Mlalines, sent for the Lieutenant-.colonel and the two Mlajors of the same regiment, and after stating that he intended to retire from the service, w.vithdrew into an adjoining room and blew out his brains. MADRID, JULY 16. King Ferdinand has just lost a faithful and zealous servant in the person of the Count de Miranda, who died suddeiily four dayg ago. uring the revolution, the Count was persecuted by the Liberaaj, who compelled the Kling to remove him from his household; but as soon as his MWajesty tscaped from the hands of the Revolutionists at Cadiz, he calhed JAI.de Miranda near his person, antI restored him to the post of Intendant of the Royal Household, which had been giveD to the Marquis of 5anta llmz.- .Drapeau Blanc. CONSTANTINOPLE, Ju2E 25. The French Ambassador Count C,uilleminot has received from all the Ottoman Mlinisters the most distinguishea attention. For some days past, it has been rumoured that the Alarquis of Ri- baupierre will arrtve here shortly, as Ambassador from Russia. Since the re-establishment of friendly relations with Russia, several Greeks who had taken refuge at Odessa have had the temerity to re- turn to Constantinople. We learn that they were arrested and con- ducted to the prison of Mousour Aga, which is that appropriated to debtors It is hoped} that when they have discharged what they owe to the Porte, they will be released. The Captain Pacha is still at anchor under Iitylene. According to advices from this Gfeneral, he meditates an attack upon lpsara. PRBNC11 PAPERS. PARIS. JULY 28.

The manner in which the two cases against CROCKFORD, the late fishmonger, weri eff yesterday, will be seen with regret. It was painful, also, to notice the names of the per- sons called on in Court, and who did not appear to their subpoenas. But there are virtuous, and honourabIk, and pure men in the Peerage of Great Britain, whose characters may serve as a set-ofi to the frequenters of 'hells," and so redeem the whole order from disgrace and obloquy. As to the supposed keeper of the house in question, we ean onfly wish him a speedy arrival in that country where he will be served as we serve his fish !-crimped, boiled, broiled, and carbonadoed.

The marriage of the present Xiig of Naples is ain example of the former, and the Wing of Prus- sias of the latter. -r The Countess of Harrach, now Princess of Leignitz, to 'whom Hi; Majesty of Prussia has chosen to give hishand, is of a R61henian fIamily, sai consequentlywas not previously one of his subjects. The King becn, eacquainted with her about-two years ago at the waters of Toaplitz, and person- - ally arranged every thing respecting their union, 'ithout the intervention of the officers of his Government, or the formation of a state contract. She is described as an inter- esting young person, of 2M years of age, endowed witl all the charms of. youth and beauty, and grace@ with all the accomplishmients becowming her ranklandfamily; and now that she has beoine associatet with Eoyalty, the courtiers of Berlin will no doubt discover in her many great good and amiable qualities which might have " blushed unseen' in a more private station. The manner of her coming to Court, and her first apperance on the scene wvhere she was destined to be so exalted, vere'distin- guished by extraordinary plaitness, if not by an affected simplicity. She arrivedj t Berlin on the 1st of November, alone, and unattendedL She was asked to Court, and at- tended, on the-ath, a ball given by the Princess Royal; but still there was no intimation that she was to be the wife of the King. Bythe9th, the intended marriage was declared to the Royal Family, and the Princess proceeded in the carrage or hackney-coa-ii of the inn 'vbere she lodged to the palace of Charlottenbourg, in the chapel of which she was married to the King, in the presence of four witnezses, without the attendance of any member of the Rovsi Family, or tha presence of any of the diplomatic corps. This solemn act was stil kept a secret from ine public till thb 11th, when the King assembled aU his fa- mnily to dinner, ant presented to them his new married wife. On the following day, the Princess accompanied her husband to n public concert, and in a few hours aftpmr,rds all Berlin rang, of course, with the news Sut 3P.%e history of a transaction which could not t , Mis country, but which, on the continene, may have reasons in favour of its policy that we shall not stop to examline.

Intelligence was received yesterday of the arrival in the Downs of the Eagle, a South Sea whaler, which vessel is miviys to nave woneo. irom mit, ue Janeiro solne days arlel the Courier, but no letters by her reached town. It is likely, however, that they will be forwartledl this day, when some additional information may transpire respecting the situation of Brazil, wvhich has excited such general interest and anxiety for the last two days. The effict on the imoney 'market has been very reinarkable ; every species of bouth American security, and even the English fundts, having de- clinedi in value, and it is evident that the alarm will not wholly subside, until some explanation shall bc afforded by MIinisters on the nature of the despatclies from the English Consul-General at Rio de ,Janeiro. It scems now very generally adinitted, that the Brazilian E1r- PEROat, or REGENT, carries on a secret correspond- ence with his father, anid enitertains designs hostile to the independence of Brazil: how far these may be re- strainedl by a sense of the personal danger of the under- taking, or in what manner the event of their ultimate suc- cess may affect the important question of the ex-Spanish colonies, oT compromise the honoitr of this country as their avowed protector, are speculations not to be hazarded without better information. If Miinisters arc really able to solve the difficulty, there canniot be a stronger claim upon them than arises out of the great financial and coin- m ercial interests involved in the result.

The manu- script was not perused by Mrs. LEiGii, or any of the persons concerned, previously to its destruction, though it was the opinion of MIr. 310oRE and others that such a step should be taken. WVe are also informed, that though it was originally the intention of the noble author to have this document published, yet that latterly both himself and Mr. Moota strongly doubteJ the propriety of such a measure. 'With respect to Mr. MURRAY'S share in the transaction, n e understaud from the same au- thority, that this gentlenan was equaUy (tesirous with the rest of Lord ByRON'S friends for the destruction of the MIS., and so little regardled his own interest in the concern, that he declined accepting the money from AMr. Mlvoor E; who, however, insistecl upon his receiving it as a debt (lue upon his bond.
