LATEST FROM EUROPE. TV© are indebted to our attentive Correspond ent* the Editors of the Charleston Mercury, for & Blip containing the following news, received by the ship Perfect, Prince, and British brig Gen. Brown, Sharpe, who have brought regular files of papers to the 2d of May, Liverpool to the 3d, and Lloyd’s Lists to the 30th of April. , The Commer cial advices will be found under the proper head. There was no alteration in the prices of Cottor during the week ending on the Ist of May. The sales of the week were 12 000 bales ; the import 9000 bales. The political intelligence continues of a desultory and indecisive character. An ar ticle in the Gazette de France, under the head of Bucharest, April 10,states that no sign of the Russian troops speedily break ing up from their canummeats had been perceptible two daye previously, though the report that they would still pass the Pruth on the day originally fixed, (the 13ih) had not been formally contradicted. It was inferred, however, from the abseuce of all preparations indicating haste, that the passage would not be effected on that day, but would be deferred to a more-distant period Accounts from Japay state, that the force collected at Adrianople presents an imposing mass, and that every effort was making to render its .organization as com plete as possible. Symptoms of jealousy, however, had shewn themselves between the Asiatic troops and those discipline and in the European manner, which had rendered it necesaarv to make some severe examples in order to sebdue the turbulent disposi tion cf the former. The report that the Servians had revolted is contradicted. So far from wishing to add to the perplexities of the Porte, they ap pear to have admitted the Turks into the heart of their country without the slightest opposition. Accounts from Zante of March 28tb, mention that a squadron of men of war off the Allied Powers, had been cruizing be fore Nuvurino, and had prevented all ships. Pirates had been seen off Maina. The evacuation of Pampeluna by the French troops is confirmed. Accounts from Cadiz state, that there was not the slightest preparation for evacuating that fortress. An article from Napoli de Romania of the 10ih March, states that on the 29th Feb. Admiral Miaulis, with the Hellas, fri gate, a gun boat and a small vessel, pro ceeded to Skopolo, notorious as the nest of the pirates where he destroyed a dozen of their vessels. The Porte had sent Commissioners to Greece to propose an armistice and amnes ty on condition of their submitting. Count Capo D Istria was of opinion, that it was Do longer in the power of the proposal and that the Turkish Commissioners must ap ply to the Allied Powers, and not to the Greek Government. The Bill for the repeal of th* British Test aud Corporation Acts had finally passed the House of Lords. A repoit was in circulation, however, that the king had refused to sign the Bill,and that Lord Wei- j lington, in consequence, had tendered his resignation. This report is treated as ri , diculous An article dated Vienna, April 16, states that a note had been received there declar ing the resolution of the British government to remain neutral in case of war between Russia and Turkey, and to co-operate w ith France in maintaining the Treaty of the 6th of July. In a late sitting of the French Chamber of Deputies, the minister of niaiine, stated that the French naval force in the Medi terranean was actively engaged in rescuing the Greek slaves taken from the Morea—- and that on the very day cf the debate he had received a despatch by w hich he was informed that one single vessel had saved 437 of those wretched captives This an nouncement was received with loud cheer ing. A telegraph despatch from Toulon of April 20, states that the Ashtrce, frigate, had taken and burnt, at the entrance of the bay of Tunis, an algerine corsair of 6 guns aud 60 men. This corsair was the only one that had left Algiers for 2 months. Lord Eldon and several other Peers have published a protest against the repeal of the Test and orporation Acts. The B oon de Damas has succeeded the Due de Riviere as Governor of the Due de Bourdeaux, grandson of the king of Fiance. The London Courier of the 25th April asserts, that the most cordial understanding subsists, not only between the ihree Pow ers, but between them and Austria and Prussia. The Chancellor of the Exchequer stated on the evening of the 28ih, in reply to a question from Sir John Graham, respect ing the currency, that it was the fixed de termination of Ministers to abide by the Act of 1826, which takes all English notes under £5 out of circulation in April next; and that he should introduce a measure to prevent the circulation of Scotch and Irish small notes in England. In a late debate upon the Test and Cor poration Acts, the Duke of Wellington as sured the House of Lores that no Peer could be more decidedly opposed than lie was to any further concessions to the Ca tholics. Sir Francis Burdett has postponed his motion upon the Catholic question, to the Bth of M ly. The works upon the Thames Tunnel are said to proceed as satisfactorily as could well be expected. . London, May I. We have had a variety of reports here to-day, and all of an unfa vourable description. The most promi nent, and, in the opinion of some, the mos; ridiculous, was that the King had refuseo to sign the bill for the Repeal of the Test and Corporation Acts, and that consequent ly his Grace the Duke of Wellington had tendered, or would tender, his We will leave our readers to draw their own conclusion as to the probability of this strange rumour; we shall merely observe i hat it appears to us most improbable, though there are those who profess to give some credit to it on the ground of the Duke of the Cumberland delivering his opinion with so much warmth against the Bill in question The Steam-packet from Oporto arrived at Liverpool on Monday last. Her letters were received te-day in town—they are dated on the 20th inst being seven days’ later than the previous arrivals. Every thing was perfectly quiet. In other respects they contain no news. The money market iiasbeen considera bly depressed to-day. This has been ac counted for in various ways. Some say that the report of the resignation of the Duke of V\ ellington has been the cause of the decline : but the probability is that the decline was the cause of the report. O thers assert that the news of the determi nation of the Pacha not to evacuate the Morea, together with the alleged fact of the-French being about to send troops to j the assistance of the Greeks has had an un favorable effect; while another party at tribute the depression to the report of the ! Russians having crossed the Pruth: and I lastly, we are told that ittias arisen solely from the circumstance of a great speculator j having sold his Time Stock, for the double purpose of realizing, anti of enabling him t self to buy money stock, upon lower ; terms. Consols, which left off yesterday at 86 to 861-8, opening this morning at 86, were then done at 85 34, afterwards went down ! to 85 3*B. and finally elosod at 85 l-2i The heavy stocks have also declined.— I The Four per Cents were last done at 102 : 1-2 aud the Four per Cents 1826, at 102 : 7-8. Exchequer Bills and India Bonds continue about stationary. In the Foreign market the Northern Se curities have followed the course of Con sols, are lower. Russia Bonds are low er for the Account than for money. They were last done for monev at 89 3-4, and for the account as 49 1-8 Buenos Ayres , Bonds have advanced rather considerably. (This maybe attributed to the expectation of peace being likely to take place shortly. This idea must be founded, if indeed it has ’ ary foundation upon some repesentations sent from our Government to the belliger ent Powers. Buenos Ayres Bonds were last doi.e at 33. The Mexican bonds have rather declined. There is actually a Scheme we under stand for another mining concern in the Brazils, afloat. The shares, it is said, are already jSS premium. We can hardly be lieve tliis. To-morrow will be a holyday at both the Eng/ish and Foregn Stock Exchanges, consequently the patriotic jobbors are ex pected to muster very largely at the * Public Faith meeting” to-morrow. (From the Gazette de France.) Bucharest , April 10.—Though a great deal bus been said of the advance of the Russian troops for the 13th, and though it is even affirmed that the order for their de parture has been seen, fixing that day for their entrance into the Principalities it ap pears, that on the Bth no prepartions had been observed in the Russian cantonments, which indicated that they would so soon depart. People, indeed, pretend to know that 20,’ 00 men will pass the Pruth, and that the military operations will be confin ed, for the present, to the occupation of the Principalities. These, however, are but idle reports, that require confirmation. —Augsburg Gazette. . Corfu , April I—Accounts deserving of credit say, that Varnachiotti, H sios, and other Captains have joined tho Greek corps at Dragomestre, which is very shorily to advance towards Arta. Captains Gogos, Colylidas, and the Sturnaris, are also rea dy to join the Greeks, as soon as the latter approach their districts. The following is presumed to be the plan of the expedition into Western Greece.—— The corps at the Dragomestre, reinforced by another which is expected from the Pel oponesus, will advance to Cassario Mario, where it will divide into three columns.—— The centre will occupy that place ; the right will extend towards Golista, and the left to Lakis: small vessels are prepared tO_enter the gulf of Ambracia, and support the lett. It appears that A issolonghi and Anatolico are or. the point of surrendering to the Greeks. Prevess and Arta are not in a condition to make a long resistance. The Saraskier is at Juniana, where she is in want of money. The inhabitants of that country are treated with humanity, and no extiaordinary tax are imposed on them.— Orders have been indeed given to make a general recruiting of all the Christians in Rumelia ; hut the reason is not know n. — Ibrahim Pacha is at Modon, aud his de parture is spoken of. Three envoys from the Sultan are ex pected at Egina who come to propose to the Greeks an armistice of three months Ir is supposed -that Count Capo d’lstria will refer them to the Allied Powers. An English ship of the line has arrived here with troops from Portugal. A bomb vessel o! anew construction has also arriv ed with four howitzers, and a large can non in the middle ; each piece is served by 80 artillerymen. These vessels, and others are said to be destined for the Dardenuel les—Autizie del Giorno . Trieste , April 16—While the President is exerting himself with so much activity for the happiness of Greece, Ibrahim ap pears to have no other wish than to quiet ihe Morea and return to his own coun f ry. It is said that ad the preperations have been made in the Egyptian army for the embarkation, end that the fortresses still held by the Egyptians are to be delivered to the Turkisii troops. This circumstance gives reason to presume that the Pacha has hastened to the remonstrances of the Pow ers, and sent instructions to his son. Paris, April 28 —The Nuremberg Cor responcent affirms in an article dated from the Banks of the Danube that the Russian troops, if they occupy the Principalities, will remain there in the position they take up, till the Porjte consents to fulfil the trea ty of Akerman. No farther hostilities will be committed ♦nless that power refuses to listen to the language of reason. Mean time, the efforts of the Ambassadors at Con stantinople are still directed to the preser vation of peace. Shocks of an earthquake were felt at Rome and Florence in the night of the IGth April. They were more violent and of longer duration in the latter capital but, without any bad consequences. At Forli, there were eighteen shocks i four days. | The same ph nomena terrified the inhabi tants of Ancona, Fesam, and Sanigagiia.; Jassy , April 7. —(Private Correspon dence.) —Advices from the left bank of the Pruth, state that all the regiments of the armies of Bessarabia, have been reviewed in succession. Officers of the Staff from St, Petersburgh arrive daily at the headquar ters at Kiscbeuea, with orders to the Field Marshal Count Wittgenstein. The news is spread in the army, that it is on the 3d of May that the Emperor Nicholas is to ar rive at Bessarabia. ; We learn from Constantinople that the Divan has sent a secret agent directly to Alexandria, with despatches to the Vice roy, which are said to he of tho greatest importance. The Turkish officers, of every rank, are at this moment in great numbers at Adrian ople, and the army forming in the environs of this city, forms an imposing mass. The cominnnders are exerting themselves to the utmost to preserve discipline among the troops. It would appear that some sort ot misunderstanding has been sown among the Asiatics, and the soldiers disciplined alter the European manner, and that se vere measures were had recourse to, to keep the former from pillage, of which they are very fond. Detachments of chosen Turkish troops, consisting chiefly of Bosniacks, having en tered Seivia, have occupied without oppo sition the differest strong places of that province, where they will do duty conjoint ly with the Servian troops. We understand that these precautionary measures adopted by the Porte to guaran tee Servia fiom an invasion, have caused a certain sensation at the head quarters of the Austrian troops assembled on the ex treme frontiers. It had been remarked, that hitherto the Ottoman Government seemed to feel no uneasiness at the forma tion of an Austrian army on:the ciufines of Servia. From this it had-been interred that the Divan had no'apprehensiot s as to the future policy of the cabinet of Vienna. The Turks continue to fill the dt files of Mount Hamus with troops, and to raise en trenchments, guarded by heavy artillery, in the principal defiles through which an invading army must pass on marching to Constantinople. From the Philadelphia Album. THE KNIGHT OF MALTA. In the centre of an apartment whose walls were hung with rich cloths, aud whose floors were spread v. ith the most costly weavings of the east, sat, or rather reclin ed, a knight in the half armour of the times. Before him stood a marble table, whose unblemished surface sustained a lamp, the faint rays of which hone full upon his face. lis lines had settled in the expression of suffering, and at short inter vals, tears which he impatiently struck from them, glistened in his eyes. He sigh ed heavily, and once or twice rose hastily from his sea , as if endeavouring to escape from the v eight that lay on his spirit. Sud denly a narrow entrance in view, opened and closed again after admitting a young and delicately formed female At her ap pearance he hastened towards her, and raising from her lace a rich veil that con cealed it, he kissed her fervently and in silence: tnen, taking her hand, he led her to an open casement, through which the moon streamed in unshadowed splendour. From thence he looked upward, and strove to discover in the overhanging fiimamenr, the star which the juggling science oi the age had taught him to revere as the arbiter of his fate. It shone with a mild and steady light, and to ao unprepossessed mind, would have suggested images of repose and beauty: bus his diseased imagination saw written on its placid disk, menaces of fatal import, and shuddered as he read the visionary threat. “ Constantia,” he said, addressing his companion in hollow tremulous accents, “the conclave have met, and the humble knight whose best distinction was your love, has, by their election been made the equal of rulers and kings. Fut the gift of pt wer is not without its alloy, and in becoming the guide of others I have ceased to be my own. The gaze of the multitude is on me, and follows me from the scene of pub lic functions to the solitude of these reces ses, nor is it fitting that the leader of Mal ta s chivalry should ever enjov softer en dearments than may be reaped from the austerities of monastic devotion, the page antry of the touruay, or the hazardous re velry of well fought fields. So, at least, say the hoary headed fools of our conclave ; but you know me too well, to believe that their words alone could persuade me to talk of separation to you. Separation : from whom 1 If the grey dotards could but ima gine the fervour of my attachment—the blandishments of your tongue— the softness of your bosom, and the high heroic heart that throbs beneath it ! If they knew hut how often when the call to arms has found me iu the retirement of your bower, you have lent me a nobler impulse than I own ed without you, and buckling on my ar mour, have bid me be a true knight; and how often, its hazards over, my dearest re ward for the valor all men praised, has been your gentle welcome would they wish me to fimve you 1 Constantia, the contumely of these men were nothing to me ; but the stars themselves, those poten tial rulers of earthly destinies, demand it from your lover. Will you pardon hint that he dares not refuse V* He ended, and the youthful girl whom he addressed, stood pale and nion-nless as marble. It was, in truth, a harsh reveal ment to one, whose love was intense as the wo,ship of holy things —whose boundless security required all the power of t e darkly predictive words she had just beard to chill and to break it. She had been sailing on a miiet sea, in a barque, teeming with soft sounds and pleasing emotions, and now was stranded on a lone shore with no thing to greet her senses but the monoto nous discord of angry ocean. She m ght not unaptly be compared in her present hopeless and solitary condition, to a tra veller, who having smoothed his pillow at night on one of those verdant spots that adorn the barrenness of the desert, with living rills gushing around him, and ftesh leaves waving over him, awakes on the morrow to the horrors of endless and burn ing sterility. She strove to speak, but the words rattled hoarsely in her throat, and the effort spent itself in inarticulate sounds. But there was a proud spirit in her eye, that gave promise of early and greater sell command : and well was that promise kept. I “ Godfrey,” she said in low but distinct accents, 44 when your summons came, I was alone in the solitary chamber, which, to be near you, I have chosen in my father s free hall. I was alone with the dishonour for which I bartered a spotless name, and yet when your step awoke the sleeping echoes of that si ent room, I knew that he came to guide me to your presence, and I was happier in that reflection, than fame or love of kindred could have made me. But you say aright: the companion of your obscure days, deserves not to share in the splendor of your future lot. The hand that led me from my youthful home, had no other trust than the bridle reius, and a good sword. A weightier care is iu store for it, and I resign its protection. — Say I not well, love 1” She crept into his bosom, and lay there with an eye as calm aud as bright as ever shone on happier days. Then rising} she looked up in his face earnestly—tend rly. \ 44 Godfrey,” she continued, 44 lend me your poignard ; I know *tis ever by your side, and as a parting gift I would weave around its hilt a ringlet of the poor hair you have praised so often.” She received the dagger from him. It had been won in strife from the infidel, and was enchased with rich jewels. Her dark hair was twined around it. The moment afier she buried it iiPo her side, and fell bleeding at his feet! Quick as thought he upraised her inanimate bot’ff. He bound up the wound, and warmed hV faded lips vvitli his kisses, till they blushetragain with the sanguine die of the rose pe reilluminated his eyes for a moment, unt gradually left it as those lips resumed the ashy paleness of death. He took her an.l lifeless band and sighed over it his last adieu 44 That blow—that blow I it hath killed us both, Constantin.” I The sultry plains of Syria were crowded with the array of war. The crescent and the cross waved in dead y hostility over its parch id soil. Around the banners of the turbaned Prophet, were gathered the bravest of his worshippers—the swarthy Bedouin, the melancholy Turk, and tfip pale, enervated Persian. Opposed to them was the flower of Christendom—the hosts ,of France and England, c,f middle Ger | many, and Venice, the mistress of the seas. Malta’s best tances were there, but without their legitimate leader. Godfrey, the grand muster of their order, had mysteriously disappeared from amongst them. Dark and injurious suspicions were levelled at him by his kingly competitors in fame, from which his followers were only won by the absorbing interest of the approach ing strife. It came at last, and thousands who on that day saw the sun rise bright and unclouded : lay stiff and cold, ere its beams weie quenched in night. The dawn marshalled them forth—followers of the cross and crescent. The middle hour found them contending. But we are n. t fit chroniclers of the event of that conflict. A single feature of them however, we would fain commemorate. Overpowered by numbers, and oppress ed by 1 ng continued exertions, the knights , of St John were slowly retiring before the countless myriads of the east, w hen r re i markabte incident gave them anew thead ■ vantage of the fight. At this critical pe riod, when retreat was rapidly assuming the characteristics of flight, a knight appa relled in sable armor, and bestriding a noble animal of the same color, appeared among ; them. He shouted the war cry of the or der, and urging his horse at full speed ! against the nearest of his assailants, struck , them down in his progress. Long and | unimpeded, he kept on his victorious way * till the boldest of his followers trembled at ’ his rashness. The catastrophe was how ever at hand, and the blood that bedab bled his armour, testified that he had not pursued his stern career unharmed. The stroke ol a battle axe parried on his sword, had shivered it to pieces: he drew from his bosom a poinard, whose jewelled hilt was ■ encircled with a single tres of raven hair. (Was it Constantia’s ?) Ho railed it aloft ; to strike a last blow, but life waned in the effort, and horse and rider came to the earth together to rise no more.. We learn from Capt. Bissell, who arrived here • yesterday in the brig Sea Gull, from Brassas de St. Jago, that an Express from Mexico had arrived at Malta Moras, on the evening of the 19th ult. ■ with instructions to the General Commandant, directing him to make provision for an army of I 25,000 men, which was to be stationed on different ’ parts of the coast. These directions w’ere given m consequence of an expected invasion by the Spaniards under the command of Gen. Morales, and assisted by the fleet of Commodore Lahorde. The Spanish force was supposed to eonsist of about 12,000 men. The Gen, Commandant was likewise directed to drive all the cattle from the coast to the interior. We also learn that a Mex ican government sloop from Vera Cruz, with 500 barrels of powder and arms, bound to Matamoros, was wrecked on the St. Jago bar on the 10th ult.; the crew were saved, but the vessel and cargo to tally lost.— Charleston Mercury. From the Avgusta Chronicle . Masonic Celebration, —The Corner Stc.n* ? the new Masonic Hall of this City was laid v terday with the appropriate ceremonies of craft, which were performed with impressivl grandeur and solemnity, and attended hy a v J. t concourse of spectators, numbers of whom we * attracted by the previous announcement of zl* event, from distant parts of this and the adjoin ip* State. The procession, which was attended bf the officers of the Grand Lodge of the State w * formed at the Lodge Room, at ten o’clock. A V* proceeded to the City Hall, where it was john-S by the Mayor and the other civil. authorities rs the City, the Reverend Clergy, the members cf the St. Cecilia Socety, and several distinguished strangers. It then passed through Greene, Ces tre and Broad-streets, to the site of the Mason* Hall, when the corner stone was laid with appro, priate Religious and Masonic ceremonies ; and a* eloquent Mosonic address, fraught w r ith ir.u<*k moral and religions truth, and supported by forc}% ble and beastitul illustrations in defence of the s*. cred order of Masonry, was delivered by his ho. nor Judge Schley, M. W. G. M., and succeeded by a Prayer from the Rev. Mr. Moderwefl. F rar4 thenee it repaired to St. Paul’s Church, where * chaste and eloquent Masonic Oration, beautiful], enriched “with the classic refinements and grace* of oratory, was delivered by R. R. Re ; 4 Esq. ans preceded and followed by impressive Prayers, of. sered up to the Throne of Grace by the Rev/ Mr Talmage and Mr. Tally. The procession thea returned to the Lodge Room, where it was dis. banded ; and the festivities of the day were con cluded by a splendid Masonic Dinner given at the Planters’ Hotel. Upwards of a hundred per sons sat down to table, among whom were many invited guests of distinction, and the enjoyments of the evening were distingnished by a richness and beauty of social harmony worthy the ijj ternal character of the company. The site of the contemplated Masonic Hall i s on the South side of Broad-atreet, near the spot where formerly stood the Globe Uavern, and nearly opposite the Augusta Bank—one of the most conspicuous and eligible situations in the city. The corner stone is formed of two pieces cf granite of equal sizes, about three feet squre and one foot thick. In the centre of the lower one is a square cavity, in which w r as placed varioug coins, &c. and upon this was placed the other, in the centre of which is laid a polished w T hite mar ble slab, about 16 inches square, with a Masonic emblem at each corner, and containing the follow ing inscription ; Corner Stone of the MASONIC HALL OF AUGUSTA, Laid on the 2d June, A.

Dreadful Catastrophe —By the steamer North America we have receiv ed the following melan choly information:—On the morning of the 14th inst. the steamer Car of Commerce, Capt. Cocks, on her passage hence for Louisville, at the head of inland No. 25, burst her boiler at the after head, which took a direction through the hurricane deck, destroying every thing betore it to the stern of the boat. The boilers recoiled from their bed to the forecastle, leaving every thing on that part of the main deck a heap of ruins. The North America stopped at Bearfield’s landing to take in cargo, when the cabin passengers accompanied by Dr. Near, proceeded with the medicine chest to the relief of the unfortunate sufferers. On their arrival they found the boat, the coast and the farm houses literally strewed w r ith the dead, the dying and the wounded. Those in the main ‘cabin es caped unhurt: but of the deck passengers, and crew, consisting of more than sixty persons, very few escaped. Our informant remained with the boat; at their departure, 14 were dead and 10 or 12 considered past recovery, besides from 20 to 30 more or less injured Many of the unhappy be ings were literally boiled, others scaled from head to foot and skinned alive, presenting a spectacle at w'hich humanity shuddered. Some of them by inhaling the hot steam into their throats, were scalded inwardly into their very lungs. Capt. Cocks, who escaped unhurt, was using indefatigable exertions to alleviate the suffrings of the wounded, and to inter the dead with decen cy. Savannah, Friday, June 6,1823.
