F1f0_\‘l EUROPE.-—By an arrival at N-
York on the Ed inst. London papers t0" the
80th Sept. are received.
Several ofthe English papers have pit
red at length front tlte American papers, the
manner in which Gen. La Fayette has been
received in various cities in oitr country. The
London Courier affects to ridicule” the love
aiid_ attachment ofthe Americans towards the
General : but this was to have been expected
from a press which is the advocate of Legiti-
iitates and the Holy Alliance of .despots.—
I The Liverpool Mercury, in speaking of.La
tayette’s reception, says, “ The public prints
of that country (which we regret we have not
room to quote) devote a large portion of their
columns to the details ofliis interesting jour-
!iey;' and the deep feeling of pt'lll‘l0llStl| and
joy which his presence inspires, though to _a
cold observerit may appear roiiittntically iii-
‘t'ense,_uiust afford the veteran soldier ofiitdc-
‘pendcncc a gratification which rnonarchs
tnight eitvy, and is highly lioitorable to Anter-
ican cliaracter. We slionld think little in-
deed ofany cotintry that could forget the ser-
vices of art early and disiiiterestcd friend-'-
aiid he too, it foreigner; and we slioulil, per-
liaps, better cotiipliiiteiit it free people by_con-
siilcring such a deiitonstratioii‘ oi itational
gratitude as a matter of course than holding
it up as an example ofptttriotic virtue.”
It is iiientioited in the London papers that
Mr. Owen (one of the passengers by the late
arrival) has come to this country for the pur-
.,,o5e of piirchasiug ll r. Rapp’s settleinent,of
Haruiony tipoii the Wabash,wliere he intends
-to form an establislinieiit upoii"a plan sortie-
wltat similar to that of the Harmonites—-that
.is, each person labouring in conintoii for_ the
beitefit ofthe wltole, and possessing equal in-
terests. The property contains more than
220,000 acres, 3000 of wltich are already itniler
cultivatioit. - About 1000 acres more are rich
iiieadow land, on the banks of the VVabash.
ALondon paper reniarlis that this system of
living will aiiswcr better among the savages
ofAiiierica than the enliglitened people of
England. The Harinouites, it is said are a-
bout returning to the state of Pennsylvania.

. Railivays were about to be constructed in
-all parts of-the Kingdom. A joint stock coin-
puny had ‘ceeii foruied at Edinburgh to con-
struct one between that city and London, for
the conveyance. of goods and passengers.-
The former were expected to be carried 8,
and the latter 1°.’ miles an hour.
On Saturday General Miclielena, the en-
voy froiti Mexico, and His Secretary, Mr.Ro-
c'afuei't, ivaitcil on Mr. Fletcher, the agent of
General Iturbide. The General, after inqui-
ring respecting the situation of the children
of lturbide, expressed his solicitude for their
welfare ; he had no orders front his Govern-
{Twill-, but he would personally undertake to
defray their expense, leaving tlietti, neverthe-
less, subject to the disposition of Madame I-
'turbide. He asked the annual charge, and
added, “Iwish them to_liave an education
which will enable them hereafter to be useful
to their country.” It‘ will be recollected that
Iturbidc left six cliildrcit in England at school.

It appears by letters’ received in London
from Havre,that the French Government are
desirous of throiving obstacles in the way of
.coniinitnicatioii with St. Domingo, as a ves-
sel bound for Port au Prince had been refus-
ed clearance for that place,and the owner had
.in consequence, been compelled to clear out
for‘ St.Tliomas.

A letter t'roui Trieste, Sept. 14th, gives an
account from Zante, stating« that the Egyp-
tian fieet had arrived in the Morea; that new
ilissentions had broken out among the Greek
cliiefs,so_ri‘ie of whom had espoused the cause
ofthe Turks ; and that it was feared the cap-
tain Pacha had succeeded in an attenipt a-
gainst Santos. ‘ «
Loxnox, Sept. 29.-‘-—Lctters_of. the 17th of
Aiig.-lreceiveil yesterday from Sinyriiastate
that a great ttiortality existed among the Titr-
kish troops collecting at Scala Niiova which
was likely to retard their euibarltatioii in the
expedition against Santos. The Greek pri-
vateers, in the mean time, wcre,actively en-
gaged in intercepting and capturing the small
vessels which had been engaged for the traits-
portatioii ofthe troops.
,A Mr. Fotiiitleroy, the acting parltier in the
house nfblarsh 8:. Co. has been detected in
extensive plans of forgery which he has car-
ried oii for 16 years. The extent of the fing-
cries of wliicli Mr. F. is accused, atiioiint to
above two Imndred lltousand pounds.
A Loiiilon paper of Sept. 24th says, every
circitiitstance connected with this iinfortiinate
inaii’s nitrite excites the most intense interest
ihroiiglioiit ‘the metropolis. People wonder
and itiqiiireivliat he could have done with, or
how disposed of, such extensive sums of moti-
cy as those named in the ivarrants ofattorncy
broiiglit‘forward; but, perhaps they will ex-
press soniewliat inore astoiiisliiiieiit when tliey
learn that those suius are "out a small part of
the depredatioiis charged upon the prisoner.
It is already pretty clearly ascertaiiieil at the
Batik ofEiigland, that in the way of warrants
of attorney alone, he has exceeded one fourth
part ofa inillion sterling, iiidependeiit of all
other transactions with which ilie Bank of
England has nothing to do. The list of per-
sons whose stock has liei.-it sold otit without
their knowledge is iiniiiense ; his own inotlicr
and other iiieiiibers of his family, have had
large sitiiis of their property disposed of in
this way ; but in many cases Mr. Fauntleroy
was sole trustee. Smite time ago, property
left by the late Sir Thomas Plaistoc,tlie triag-
istrate, to the ainoiitit of ££&’.,O00 was paid in-
to the banking house to which Mr. Fauntler-
oy belonged, with instructions to have it im-
inediately invested in the funds; but it now
appears that no stock was ever purcliased with
the money, bx. it is gone in the general wreck.
In short, it would, we uitdc-i'staii(l, be endless,
almost, to go ihrougli the various traiisactinns
oftliis descriptiott that have takeit place. The
Quecn’s Lying-in Hospital is a siill'erei' in its
funds to a coiisiderable aiiioiiiit.
It would appear at first view, extraordinary
how Mr. F. could have managed to dispose of
such large sums as he obtained possession of
indepeiitlcnt of his sh:i're in the partnership,
which is estimated to have been about£.’i,000
a year. .
Mr. F’s min was brought about by one of
those destructive wonien who practice in a
sy-steniatic niauner upon those who fall with-
in their snares. By the tricks and sclieuies
that were contrived by her, he has dissipated
enormous sums. Some time ago in France
liebecaiiie enaiuoured ofa young Engish l‘.i-
dy, their piirsuiug lter education at a coiiveiii,
and succeeded in gaining her aifectiiiiis to a
degree that she eloped with him. This lady
he has never parted front, and at this nioiiieiii
she occupies ati elegant house, with acorn-
pletc establishment iiiSiirrey.——Besides these,
various extensive chaiinels for the dissipation
of-Mr. Faunileroy’s pecuniary funds, it will
be recollected that he had regularly to pay
the dividends on all those enormous stints of
stock sold out, wlticli, we are well assnred,was
ait annual draught upon lllill ofaboiit £16,000
Added to this, it is ascertained that on some
suddeii occasions during the ivar, and after,
when he was called upon to prodtice stock to
which lie was‘trustee, he was often compelled
to purchase at an enormous loss, to prevent
the disclosures whiclt have now taken place.
Coiisideriiig, then, all these circuiiistaiices, it
may I10!» perhaps, be so inuch wondered at
that Mr. Fauiitleroy exhausted, in the course
of about l5 years, even the vast stints ofiitoii-
ey spoken of, and of ivliicli, we believe, there
is very little left.

From Coimcil Bli«_[]’Z<r.—Major O’Fallon ar.
here a few days since from Fort Atkinson.
wliich he left on the 10th Septeniher and de-
scended the Missouri in art open skiff‘. We
learn that the Mexican Coinniissioners whom
he expected to meet at the Bliiffs, did not ar-
rive, owing to the unsettled state of their rela-
tions with the Caiiiaiiclies, and the actual
poverty ofthe new goveritinent. It was de-
termined. - however, to send an express to
Council B|ufl's,w'ith a letter front the Govern-
or, expressing his sorrow at the failiire ofthe
original design, but beseeching our niediatiou
with the Indians, proiiiising,on the part ofliis
proviiice, to coinply with any regulations or
measiires that might be adopted to bring a-
bout the desired peace. About the first of
.f.llgllSl, the express arrived‘ at the Council
Bluffs, composed of 26 Spaniards and chris-
tiairized Indians, and accoinpanied by an A-
iiiericaii, named Beard as agiiide. As soon
as practicable, the Indians were assembled.
and, in Council, Major O’Fallon explained
with much earnestness, the great necessity of
burying the ionialiawk with their Mexican
neighbors ; that he was iiisirticted by his gov-
erniiieiit to rentonstraie spiritedly against
their depiedations, and insist upon an ironie-
dijate cessation ofiiostilities agaiiist otir friends
the Spaitiards. _ He also urged the great so-
licitude which the governinent of New Mexi-
co felt on this subject, anil their siiiceic desire
to cultivate peace‘, and preserve a good under-
standing with them. The Spaitiards were
quiet aitd silent spectators at these conferences,
The character of the Missouri Indiaiis, as
usual, displayed itselfoii this occasion. The
Pawnees, at first, did not lend a very willing
ear to the proposition for peace; urging that’
the war was a profitable one to them, .aiid
. uotliing was to be acquired by peace: that
they had once a peace with the Spaniards,
and never got any thing‘. more than their
empty hand, but “‘ when we come to visit you,”
addressing Major O’Fallon, “ we not only
get yoiirliand but sometliiiig to smoke ;"—
that peace with the Aiiiericans was as profit-
able io them as war with the Spaniards ;—
“ but,” they coiicliiiled, “ as you desire and
insist upon it, we will itiake peace with the
Spaniards, and preserve it as long as you
wish its to do so.” _
‘ They then seized the hands of the Span-
iards, and expressed their willingness to be
friendly. After which the express departed‘
for New Mexico, hearing. a letter from Major
O’Falloii to the Governor, informing him of
the result, &.c. ' ~
The iniportaiice cfthis reconciliation to the
Missouri caravans trading to Santa Fe, iiiusi
be duly appreciated. It rciiioves almost the
only obstacle to a very active and reciprocal
iiitercoiirse between Mexico and Missouri.
