that Atlieiis is again in the liands oftlieTurks,

The Mouiicur contains an article fr. Smyr-
nu, ofthe lzlth ult. which states that tranquil-
itv had been disturbed there by the Turkish
soldiers, who ivereasscinbling to join the ex-
pedition iigiiinst the Greek isles. Tltcse sol-
diers were continually quarrelling with the
Greeks in the town, who are not allowed to
carry arins. Five or six Greeks were in ur-
_dei-cd by the Turks, who afterwards killed an
Austiiaii sailor. ,The Fraiilts now took the
alarm, for their own safety armed themselves,
and the French frigate Oalatce,well manned,
was brought uptlie Roadstead and took her
station opposite the French Consulate, for the
double purpose ofprotectingtlie Consul and
taking on board fugitives. The armed V85~
sels in the harbour belonging to other Powers
followed the example. This intimidated the
ha.-barians, who quilted Smyrna, and tran-
quility was restored, but trade was in a state
of great stagnation.
“ llliLo, July 16.—’Fifty-two Greek ves-
sels, namely 80 Haydriots and 2?. Spezziots,

favorable opportunity, landed sotne troops in

large sum of money which had been buried,

The Captain Parzlia was yesterday at Myt-

in trio or three days. Should he succeed the

watcliing the nioveinents ofthe Turks, and I
hope they may make a division to save Sain-

not to surrender, nor to ask pardon, which the

A terrific thunderstorm was experienced in
England, on the 30th of August. The Cam-
brian newspaper states, that the storm was
disastrous along the vale of Glamoryaii. The
fields ofcorn were damaged, and many hous-
es, mills, &.c. greatly injured. The tiirnpike
roads between Pyle and Swanson became ini-
passable. At Neath, and its iieigliboiliood,
the rain- fell in torrents, and the "lightning
continuous, followed liy thunder claps, wltlcll
might be compared to discharges of artillery.
The little village of Meliucrythan, has sufler-
ed greatly. Several houses, &*.c.were carried
away, riiost of the cottages were inundated,
some within a foot of the ceiling. The'ipha-
bitants iverc obliged to leave their dwellings,
and expose themselves to the storm. At Brig-
end, the storm was equally severe.
A The account of the arrival of General La
Fayette, is mentioned in all the English pa-_
pei-s_ The London New Times in speaking of
the General’s landing at New-York, says:
“ He was ofcourse received with many to-
keiis ofrespcct: and it would have been ex-
traordinary, if the Americans had not paid
particular honor to an old man ancla foreigii-
er, whose name is so closely associated with
the foundation of their Republic. One coii-
clusion froiii the old General’s voyage is irre-
sistible: it is that the cause of Liberalism in
Paris is utterly defunct, and annihilated. No-
thing but desperation could have made G-en.
La Fayette sacrifice the pleasures of La belle
France, to dwell among the Dubbifc-lnses of
New England.”

Extract ofa letter from Gibraltar,dated Sept.

“ You will no doubt hear of the late ed‘-.irt
made by a party ofthe Constitiitionali;-ts to
create a revolution in Spain. These unfortu-
nate men were driven to this extreuie by the
barbaroustreatment they were exposed to fr.
the persecutions ofthe party in power. Their
personal safety was hourly threateiietl, and
they found ilieir numbers daily decreasing by
every kind ofpei'secutioii which it is p()ssil)lt:
for human ingenuity to invent ; their snbiiiis-
sion and passive obedience to the new order
ofthings were imputed totliein as Cl'ltl1ll'l1tl,
and they were so continually liarrasscd and
oppressed by their petty rulers, that death it-
sulfseemed preferable to an existence which
held out no hope of any ainelioration oftheir
wretched condition. Many had fled to this
place in hopes ofobtaining at least a short rc-
spitc from their iniserics ; but gtiiieral orders
were lSSl.tet,l by the Governor proliibitiiig any
one from entering the garrison or town, and
ordering all those that were here to leave the
plaice ivitliiu a limited iitiiiiber of days; as a
great favor they were permitted to hire small
vessels and bo:its and live in the bay, which is
without tbejurisdiction of the Governor, and
is under that ofthe Port Admiral, or Naval
Commanding Officer.
“ These ivretclied beings, many of them
with their families, had nothing to subsist on
but the charity ofthcir friends and acquaiiit-
ances, and you may easily suppose that they
could not expect to exist long under such a
state ofthings. Those who could procure the
means ofa passage to England, or to the U
States, did so, with merely the clothes they
had on their backs; the number of those,
however, was very limited, for having nothing
to offer to masters of vessels, few were fotiiid
sufiicicntly humane, or able from their cir-
cunistanccs, to take them away. Joining.
therefore, with their friends who were living
in Spain, in almost an equal state of wretch-
eduess, they deteriniiied to make one hold of-
forteither to regain some point ofthe penin-
sula, or perish in the attempt.
“ They wercjoined by some oftheir partis
ans who had fled to the inountains of Ronda,
and were living there concealed; they sur-
prised the town and fort of Tariflh, and being
joined by small parties who were detached a-
gainst them, and by many ofthose who were
living in a complete state of despair in this
bay, they dared openly to raise the standard
ofrebcltion. 'I‘hcy were, however, for want
of means, unable to make any very serious re-
sistiuicc against a powerful land and naval
force ofFronch and Spaniards which were
sent against them. 'I‘liey were compelled to
surrender, and have thus fallen into the hands
ofthose who will not spare the life ofa single
individual. The enterprise of these unfor-
tunate men will no doubt be viewed with you
as an actcfmaduess, yet could you have wit-
nessed the distress and ivretchedn-ess of those
unfortuiiate beings,you would agree with me
that death itsclfin all its forms was preferable
to a lingering existence, which nitist have ter-
minated in starvation, for nothing can exceed
the cruelty ofthe government of this place
towards these men, and indeed it would al-
most appear that it felt anxious for them to
engage in souie such desperate entei'prisc,that
it might get rid of lliciii ; and it has noiv dc-
terminedthat no constitutional Spaniard shall
find a resting place near this garrison, as an
order has been ptiblislicd prohibiting under
the severest penalties any one of them ap-
proaching the town or buy ; because, as the
order says, they had abused the lenity hereto-
fore shown them, in granting them an asylum,
which I can assure you was never granted fur-
ther than I have stated. In fact, the Greeks
themselves could not have been treated with
more barbarity by the Turks, than these peo-
ple liave been treated.
“Spain isin a wretched state, the whole
country is disaffected and discontented, and
the aduiinistration ofthe governuient is weak
and so wicked as to promise no amelioration.
A dreadful civil war is thought will soon take
place, and siicb is the state of feeling of the
different parties that the worst of horrid acts
may be anticipated from both ; it is only the
presence of the Frcnch"that prevents an im-
mediate revolution.”
' From Pernainbuco.—The Brig Camel,capt.
Tate, arrived at Boston on Sunday, from Per-
nambuco, whence she sailed on the evening
of the 17th of August. Capt. T. informs the

The morning papers of this city inform us,
that Capt. Page, ofthe ship Canton, arrived
here, touched off Pernambiico 34 days since,
and inforiris that the blocktide of that port was
cuntinuecl by Lord Cochrane’ssquadroii. He
was informed by the British sloop of War
Tweed, that several American vessels were in
that port and were not allowed to ‘come out.
On the 3th of September, he was boarded by
on officer of one ofthe fleet, who stated that
Lord Cochrane had left there a few days be-
fore, on a cruize for a few days to the south-
ward. It was supposed that the place would
not hold otit much longer, as‘ the I_nipet‘tal
troops were advancing from the interior.
The sclir. Remittance, also, from Btienos
Ayres, was off Pernanibuco on the l0tli and
the ship Canton, on ilie ttth ult. Lord Coch-
rauo’s ship had left the blockade aday or {W0
before. It was said that GeneralCavello who
defended Periiambuco, had about 1000 troops
in the town, and from 500 to 1000 in the yi-
cinity. The Imperial army under Gen. Se-
uia, was reported to be within two days march
of the place. The British sloop of war ’l‘\Vf.'ed
was offtlic port, the officers of which thought
the place would not hold out long. 'Three
American vessels were said to be in the port.

Col. Lima, first aid-de-caiup to Gen. Pacz,
who came passeiigcr in the Colombian brig
of ivar Pachinca, Capt. J. S. Miiitlaiid, has
politely favored us with the following intelli-
gence from Peru. /
On his arrival at Porto Bello on the 30th
August last, he found official accounts had
been received at P.iiiaiiia froui Upper Peril.
stating that General Bolivar, in consequence
of the niisiiuderstziriding that existed between
the Royalist Generals Ctirratcla and Olaueta,
put liiiiiselfin march from Trujillo, to attack
Canterac, who was then at Pasco. Caiiterac
retri.-ated to the stroiig eiitrenchments oldaiija
in Upper Peru, and fortified liimself there-
bnt General Bolivar, after liaving blockaded
Callao, and left in Lima the Battalionof Zu-
lia, two squadrons ofC:iv:iliy, and the gueiil-
las of the coiintry, pursued Cariterac, and
forced him from his entrenclinients. Cante-
rac again retreated precipitately intothe inte-
rior leaviug some pi'isoiii:rs, who declare that
he has no more than 6000 ineu,wliilcBolivar’s
army consists of 14,000,-ofwhich l,0,006 were
Colombians, with which force Bolivar was
pursuing him. The prisoners were sent to
Guayaquil, and from thence to Panama in
the corvette S3llllZll‘l(lel', which arrived at Pa-
nama on the 9th Au". and they were, at the
time of Col. Liina’s departure, confined in
the Castle of Chagrcs. Ainonglliein were 4
Spanish Colonels, and a number ofsubaltern
officers of various ranks.
Gentlemen who passed Chagres and Pana-
ma on the 1st Sept. state that Bolivar had
under his command, in the vicinity of Truxil-
lo, 8000 Colombians and 4000 Periivians :
that the Republic of Chili had sent 3500 men
to be put under the coiniuanrl ofthe late Pres-
ident Rivagucro, but upon learning that he
had been superseded by Bolivar they were re-
manded. ‘ Peru, Chili and Buenos Ayres fear
that Bolivar is aiming at regal powcr,of which
they say there is evidence in his foinentiiig
quarrels between Rivagnero and TorreTa,ele,
forcibly establishing himself as dictator, &c.
and for this reason they throw obstacles in his
way to prevent his success in driving out the
Spaniards. It is also said that these provinces
are raising forces to send against Colombia.
Loss qflhe Colombian brig of war Santan-
dcr, by the niiitiny of her crew.-—Letters from
Panama, received in this city, state, that ilie
crew ofthe Colombian brig of war Santaud_er,
offli’. guns and 125 men, ivliicli arrived at that

ed andran away with the vessel. A letter
dated Aug. 6t|i, says, ‘ The Saiitaiidcr liarl a-

ers. The same evening the crew mutined
and took possession ofthe vessel, leaving the
captain and sortie of his officers on sliore.—-
The baggage of all the passengers, including
funds to a large ainoiint, belonging to individ-

(and we confess they had as good right to do
it as to take him in the first place,)biit he was
not to be intiiniilated, and replied, “ you have
not a rope long enough to do it with.” The
Admiral, much to his credit and honor, would
not take cognizance ofthe capture,aud Hourc,

Hxnrroan, Oct. 1°3.—Tlie captain and
crew ofthe brig Henry, of this city, lately
captured by the pirates, reached their homes
last iveek. It is with horror we conteiuplatc
the narrow, liair-breadth escape of Captain
them to have been colly murdered the inorii-
iug after they were rescued by the British
sloop of ivar. The account given of these
pirates by Capt. Rhodes, is truly alarming to
every one whose liusiiiess may call liiui to ad-
venture oti those seas. They appear to be a
well organized body of outlaws, countenanc-
ed, if not aided by the Spanish govcrniucnt.
' he port where they were carried to was with-
in sixty miles of Havana. Besides, the char-
acters ofthese pirzttes shows them to be in-
liabitants ofthe l'l2l'\'dll'rl, and to have associ-
ated with respectable society. Nothing but
their cruelty and uiode of life (listinguislies
them from the first men of that city. They
age, well dressed, temperate in drinking, and
not tiricivil in their language. This is a de-
scription of men not easily to be diverted fr.
their money making trade. They are unlike
those desperadoes whose intemperance and
other viccs would soon terminate by death.-—
On the contrary they are incii of resources,
careful oflife, and when routed in one place
can settle down iirimolcsted in another, and at
any time find :1 refuge under the regular gov-
ernment oftlic island. \Vbile Capt. Rhodes
was unloading his iiitiles, there came on board
daily one or more men to purchase who ap-
peared like regular bred merchants or plant-
ers. From these facts the conclusion is irre-
sistible that the governineiit ofthe island is
privy to these outrages upon the law ofna-
tions and upon all civilized society. The go-
vernmentsliould be made respousiblefor tli em.
BALTIMORE, Oct. 9.
The Ball and Supper.—-Tlie Ball given
last night by the citizens ofBaltiinorc, in wel-
come of La Fayette, was the most splendid
cntertainiuent ofthe kind ever witnessed in
this city, both as re:__::trds the style and taste of
the decorations and the brilliant and elegant
appearance ofilic company.
As it was publicly announced that the Gen.
would arrive at about halfpzist eight, most of
the company had assembled by that hour,aiid
were conducted, as they arrived, to the boxes
and lobbies ofthe Theatre, where they were
to remain till the arrival ofthe Guest.—Tliis
was announced by a floiirisb of trumpets as
he entered the hall under the escort of three
of the managers, when he was received by
the whole committee, and conducted to the
former supper-room, fitted up with great ele-
gance for the occasion as a Reception Room.
At the iipperciid was the couch, on which the
