Hen*, then, it appears tint die law lus been
violated in two particulars: the one in giving
to Mr. John A. King an outfit, when he. was in
J.ondon, mid consequently did not “go (as
a charge) from the United States to any foreign
country;* 1 the other, because he was not ap
pointed by the President, either with or with
out the advice ol the Stuime,
Comment upon a transaction like this can
not be necessary; common sense will inform
whv the allowance of an outfit is
pomiesuj, or its immediate vicinity.
It was affirmed that the Pacha of Egypt ins
been expressly forbidden to send out his new
expedition against the Morea; lut the Gazette
of Augsburg since says that it actually sailed
for Navarino, on the ist of August, and that it
consists of one hundred ships, containing four
thousand men. Still wo hope it may not prove
true, and cannot believe it; unless, indeed, the
reports of the P icllit’s disaffection is well
founded, and he goes out as a secret friend to
Greece. Vessels had lately arrived at Alexan
dria with two hundred and fifty Greek slaves,
taken bv Ibrahim at the battle of Semul, who,
every body why the allowance ot mi outiit is taken by Ibrahim at the battle ot semui,wu
confined by the law, to a Charge dos Affaires it is said, were transported into the interior.
1 This wears a somewhat contradictory appear
ance; but the present inactivity of the Etr.vp-
"going from the Uni ed States to any foreign
country.” It is doubtless to enable him to
meet the extraordinary charges against him, in
cident to a long and expensive journey. And,
under all tiie circumstances of this case, it
would not he very uncharitable to suppose, that
Mr. Rufus King left England, when he did,

lliriliim has ceased his work of destruction.
Lord Cochrane has taken a Turkish sloop

We pledged ourselves to the public, (as soon
as we stw Mr. Bailev’s letter and the contra-
dic ion made in the New York American, “on

Cuba.-— Much intetesi litis been felt both
in diis country and in Europe concerning the
island of Cuba. This spo- m ij- still bo consi-
cV ed in ahoy Hire, for Spain is too clamorous
to suffer her to retain this valuable possession,
(i eat Britain is not yet convinced that her A*
meric in colonies tire rather an injury than a
benefr, and would fun add this to the number.
But die United S ates would he very loth that
a maritime power should command the en
trance to >he interior of the country; which
would he the rase, should Cuba fall into the
h aids of Great Britain.—This island is every
year becoming more valuable. In the offic-al
repoit'of us trade for 1826, the receipts of the
Royal Treasury are stated at seven millions
of hard doll ns. This vast increaso of the
public revenue has enabled the government of
Cuba to meet the new and heavy expenditure
requ-red in order to put tho island in a respec
table state of defence, to repay till deminds;
and diero remains a clear surplus of mure than
h.df n ni llion, at the beginning of the present
year. A colony of this description, exclusive
V other considerations, would be a desirable

FOUEIG.W
LATEST FROM FRANCE. *
New York, October 24.
By the packet ship Cadmus, which arrived
at diis port yesterday, we have received Paris
and H ivre papers to he l6di September.
Tut hey „nd Greece —The dales from Con
s'am ipople are to the 22d of August. At th it
time the uhimatum of the powers had been
presented to thp Porte eight days, and only
live days more were allowed for deliberation;
the original period of one month having been
considered too long, and reduced to one half.
The ambassadors of England, Franco and
Russia, presented it together; and the Reis
Effendi, after inquiring of tho dragomans what
were its contents, and receiving no satisfaction,
laid it aside. The European papers very na-
tuially give many different conjectures on tho
subject, and publish all the rumors they hear.
It is said that Mr. Stratford Canning urged tho
Austrian liner nuncio to advise the Divan to ac
cept the propositions, hut that ho rofused. Al
so, that the Prussian M nister tnudo some re-
presentations to the Rots Effendi, which wore
ineffectual. The limited timo will expire on
the 3tst of August.
In tho mean time, tho three powers are as
sembling their squadrons in tho Archipelago;
hliged to depend oil his own forces. The Greek
pirates have plundered several vessels in the
Levant ami til - r.'Utcn snip,
from M trseillcs for Alexandria, with provi
sions, an Austrian ship laden with marbles for
the Pacha, «fcc. A Greek vessel was taken
into Malta, by an English ship, loaded with
British goods, which were claimed by their
owners.
It is asserted in an English paper of Sep’om-
lior 10 It, (we know not which) that the courts
of Great Britain, France and Russia, are in fa
vor of of the Count Capo d’lstria accepting
the government of Greece.
One measure adopted bv the Russians, we
are h ippy to observe—orders havo been giv
en to all the Russian vessels to cease from
transporting warlike stores to either of the bel
ligerents on pain of entire confiscation, and
the admiral has declared that ho shall maintain
a strict neutrality.
Tho French^hips of war Trident, Breslau,
Provence and Scipion, have left Algiers for
M lo; and ihe whole squadron was to bo there
as early as the 25 li of August. The English
squadron was already in those waters. And
the Russian had been seen passing the strait.
I 1 was presumed that they would all be ready
to act in concei t by tho 1st of September.
Spain.—The Cariist insurrections in the
North have assumed so formidable an aspect
that even the Cabinet of M idrid has at lengdi
awakened from i s trance, and soot an army of
eighteen thousand men against the revolters.—
Accounts from different places speak of the
rising of new bodies of men, and of acts of
li tsiilitv. General Monet, who w is chief in
Oi l Castile, Ins received from tho King gene
ral command against tho rebels, and has left
M idrid, on the 3d of September, for his post.
It is said th it ho is to act in concert with Cam-
po Sogrado, whose resignation Ins not been
accepted. General Mnnso Ins proposed a
plan of operation, at a period of the rebellion
so adv meed, that it is feared it will be ex
tremely difficult 'o put it down, perhaps impos
sible, without foreign aid, for which, it is saiti,
application Ims been made to France, There
are French troops enough in Catnlouia to ren
der powerful assistance.
Cisneros, who expected to tako command of
the citadel of Barcelona on its evacuation by
the French, has been arrested on a charge of
having carried on a criminal correspondence
with the fnctinnaries.
Some accounts from die north, say, that a
Provisional Junta, ( ho nucleus of a rebel gov
ernment) has been formed at V.cli, hut nothing
certain is yet known. One lias actually been
formed at Manresu. Casion, who now occupies
Oloi, has issued a pruclamaion calling on the
people to fly to arms, for religion and the throne.
Portugal.—Tho Infanta Regent arrived at
the Ajuda Palace on the 28ili of August, un
der an escort partly English. Her health ap
pears to he still infirm, as she is going to use
tho soa bath at Caxias.
Wo hear of no present disturbances either
in tho capital or the country, and conclude that
every thing rent tins at present quiet. The
government have however, thought proper to
place a now censorship over the press, in con
seqtienco, as is alleged, of the exertions of some
who have denied the authority of tho Regent,
and wish to destroy the public tranquility. A
decree was published in Lisbon on the 27>k,
removing tho censors in that city, ond Oporto
who have admitted inflammatory publications in
to the Gazettes, and appointing others. It ap
pears that those journals attacked the Lisbon
Gazettes for publishing tho decrees ef the em
peror of Brazil.
M iny of the individuals arrested in the late
dsiurbances, are still in dungeons, and their
prosecutions are proceeding. They are trying
to prove them all republicans. It is to be re
marked that tho Regent still speaks of the
measures she is taking as being only tempora
ry—limiting their operations to the arrival of
uew orders. It is not known when Don M -
guel is to be expected; but circumstances ren
der it probable that he will soon arrive in Por
tugal, ami ihe Constitutional and English party
aiqiear still to favor the belief that Don Pedro
is on his way, in order to keep the balance ad
justed as well as possible for their side, in the
public mind.
Austria.—Five Hungarian regiments are to
form a part of the corps of observation, that
Austria will have on the frontiers next Tur
key, in the event of war breaking out between
Russia and the Porte.
Russia.—Loiters from Berlin of the last of
August, say that all private accoun s from Rus
sia mention groa movements among the troops;
and that a levy en masse of tho Don Cossacs
is spoken of. Witgonstein’s army in Bcssare
bia is by some affirmed to be placed on the
war footing. Tho writors remark that altho r
these reports are probably not exact, yet the
movements indicato something uncommon; and
are perhaps owing to tho ill success of tho ar
my in Persia, Thus we have again to sup
pose the first accounts from that country cor
rect. Wo observe however, that the Austrians
are to have an army of observation to witch
the Turks, and tint a Russiau squadron of ve
ry considerable force is fitting out in the Black
Sea; so that there is room to hope the military
preparations may he designed for co-operation
in a hatter cause th>n the Persian war.
London, September 12.
The Catholics of Ireland have been advised
by some well-wishers to their cause, not to
press their claims at the present session of par
liament. Tins advice has been a matter of
discussion in the Catholic Association. Mr.
Conway insisied on an immediate petition.—
Ho gave notice that on Saturday, ho should
move a strenoiis petition.
Letters front Capo Coast, dated the 19th
June, state that it was the intention of his ma

The age of M '. Tierney disqualifies him foi
the activity and labor of constant attendance

The Ak'orines continue to commit depreda
tions oil the commerce of France; and it ap
pears that they have lately begun to cruise a-
guinst Prussian vessels. Wo observe several
account* of French ships being boarded and
robbed by tnein, but remark no atrocity com
mitted on the crews. An Algnrine vessel had
arrived, at the latest dates at Toulon, with pro
positions to the government. Convoys arc
furnished at Cadiz for the Mediterranean.
Tho English cruisers on the coast of Afri
ca, between the 10.h of April, 1824, and the
1st of June, 1827, captured fifty vessels, con
taining no less th in n lie thousind seven hun
dred and thirty-three slaves! The vessels were
chiefly Brazilians; and the rest Spanish and
Dutch.
The cotton crop has almost entirely failed

The prices of bread stuffs are dear in

Liverpool, September 15.
Accounts from Cephulonia, of the date of
August 9, slate that no: one out of twenty-sev
en Turkish vessels of war stationed on the
western side of the Peloponesus could be in
duced by their captains (wito are til Europeans)
to attack Lord Cochrane. Roused again to
action, by the news of tho imerferenre of the
European Powers in their behalf, ill western
Greece has aga.n flown to anils; and those

We have received a letter from the Med
terranean, from one much interested in the
cause of .ho Greeks, from which the following
is an extract:
“Our news from the Levant is of all kinds,
and what is believed today is den ed tomorrow;
so that we redly don’t know whit o give cic
dit to for more than twenty-four hours. From
a letter which I have just read, dated oil board

wards the gulf of Negroponr, and descried wo
Turkish frigates at tho mouth; ho lio.s'ed Aus

er having observed the Austrian flag oil hoard
the Hellas, stood down, and inquired why it
had been hoisted? un i wis answered “got out
of the way, or I’ll sink you.” Afier this, Lord
Cochrane went to Alexandria and destroyed
one or two guard ships, and would have re
miineil off the port, hut the Greeks on hoard
the Hollas began to be mutinous, and would
neither fight nor stay off it; so that his lordship
was obliged to return to Napoli di Ruin inia
and change his crew, which he has eftbered,

tination, is not known here. Fabvier is under
arrest at Pores: they say that lie is charged
with havitig delivered up the Acropolis, wall
provisions for six months in the inig iz.nes, and
that the whole was an intrigue carried on thro’
Rigny, the French admiral. Lord Cochrane
is said to be lading all die useless Greek vessels
with stones, for the purpose of sinking them at
the port of Alexandria, and thus keep the Pa>
cha’s fleet at home. Letters h ive been receiv
ed here from Corfu, referring to others from
Count Capo d’lstria, to his fimily at Corfu,
announcing that tho independence of Greece is
recognized at St. Potersbugh, and to support
the Greek cause, that the Russian troo is have
been ordered to invade Bessarabia, Moldavia,
and Wallachia.”

of 5,000,000 dollars, for the use of the Gov

Central America.—The New York Daily Advertiser
states, that letters have been received in that city
which give encouraging accounts of the condition of
the Republic nf Central America. The rebellion lias
been completely put down, end the government have
possession of St. Salvador, which for some time held
out agninst them. Some of the leaders of the revolt
have been shot, and others have been pardoned. A*
mong the latter was Colonel Gnul, commander in
chief, who submitted to the goi’ernment and besought
for pardon, before the surrender of his party. He
was forgiven, on condition thnt he should leave the
country.
This'olficcr is a Frenchman, and it is highly credit
able to the republic that the prime movers of the re
volt and most of the officer*, were foreigners. The
government have recently taken the same steps as
that adopted in Mexico, having forbidden any Span
iard to enter their territory. When we take into
view the character of the population, we cannot but
hope that things will now take every where n prosper
ous turn. There is hardly any Spanish influence in
Central America, and not a single slave.
