London papers have been received at N.
York to the 3lst of May. The following
is from the Observer.

'.1‘UE{}{ EY AN?) EGYPT.

Paris papci-s of the 18th, reccivedin Lon-
don, aniiouiico the conclusion of :1 treaty
between the ()ttoin:1ii Forte and the Paclia
oi Egypt. It :1ppiiui's that. the Stilton has
agreed to code possession of Adana to Me-
lieinct Ali. The fact is announced in :1
firmaii of the Stilt.aii’s, dated the (ith of
May, which states that “itssuraiiccs of fidel-

ity aiiil dcvotcdiicss” given by the lovcru- .

or of Egypt, and his son liimliiiii, liaviiig
been acceptable to the Sublime Porto, the
Sultan had “grziiitcd them his imperial bo-
iiovolciicc,” and confirmed Mclicmct Ali
in the Governnicnt of Egypt and Crete, and
in coiiipliaiico with his “earnest desire,”
had grniitetl liini clepitrtments of Dainnscus
Tripoli, Syria, Scyde, Safctl,antl Aleppo,
and the districts of.lcrus:1lciii and Naploosc
whilst on Ihraliiin, is conferred the title of
Clicik al-liamiii of Mecca, and the district
of Djidtlc, with the tlcpnrtnieiit of Adana.
Iilelicuict Ali has thus obtained all his dc-
lllttlltls.

A letter from Siiiyriia, dziteil April ‘..’.7'tli,
inserted in the N. Y. Jotiriinl of C0llll'l1Cl'CC
says:

Peace is certainly made, btit really we
have some fears that it will not be of long
(itll‘tlll0ll. The Sultan has yielded too
iuucli, and has iiiiidc Mclieriict Ali to pow-
crful. The foriner will not be easy under
the great sacrifices he has been compelled
to make, and Mo-liciiict All will feel too
strong to bear any expression of displeas-
ure fioiii his mzistcr. The peace has been
clearly iiindc up by Great Britiiin, I“i'ancc
and Austria, in order to prevent the Russi-
ans from taking an active part : btit the lust
nioiitioncd power has hurl its eyes open, and
will not sulfur its troops to leave Coiist:1iiti—
noplc until lbraliiin 1’:icli;1 shall have quit-
tcd Asia l‘vliiior. In the mean time some
Freiicli vessels of war have :iri'ivctl :1t Vou-
la, and many others are daily expected.‘
A. Britisli force is also on the way up. In
it few iiioiitlis we shall see or hear, how all
tliiiigs wind tip.

Ei0Llu’il"«'D AND BELGIULVI.

A London paper of May 30th, says:
“.i“t)t' the sake of our coiumercc and marin-
fitcturics, we are glad to have it in our pow-
er to niiiiotiiicc that 2"». rittifiention of the
preliiiiiii=_ii'y ti'c:il_v bctwccii Grcztt Britaiii,
and l"i‘:iiico, and llollniid, has been receiv-
ed, and that, l‘.S :1 iicccssnry coiisqiiciice the
eirilizirgo on Dutcli shipping has been tzikcii
off. it seem to us, however, that‘, if wlint
has ti'niispircLl relative to the terms of the
treaty be correct, iu:1ttcrs:ircjiist', with the
exception of the cnpttircd Aiitwvrp, in statu
quo ziiitcliclltiin, (in the some state as lic-
forc tlic wnr,) and there still rciiiziiiis an
ample field for diploinntic cliiczuicry and

it appears that; :1 i'evoliitioiiz1i'_v party was
0i'gz1iii:v:c(l at or near Morolin, 5300 or 300
miles west of the capital, the object of
wliicli was tc/pi'cvciit ('.llCl'OtU.‘.llll'lCill.S. on the
Catholic rialigion. Santa Anna took :1
body of troops and mzirclied against them ;
but when iirrivcd near the scene’ of the in-
snrrect'ioii,tlioy mutincd under the direc-

 

tion of General Arista, made Santa Anna
prisoner, and put him in coiifinemeet. I-Ic
afterwards escaped to Puebla, as will be
seen below. The result will be, from all
we can gather, that Santa Anna will regain
his nutliority.

PUEBLA, June 9, 18-33.—-On the (ith inst.
the whole division of the President, bsirig
seduced by Gen. Arista, pronounced in fa-
vor of the new revolutionary project, and
iiniiicdiutcly set otit for Puebla; .perli:1ps
to protect the proiiuiiciamento of some
other force; btit they missed‘ their calcula-
tion, for the whole gzirrisou of the city con-
tinued faithful to the goveriiiiicnt. Aristn
having arrived witliin five leagues of Puebla,
directed :1 comiiiittec to solicit an iiitorview
with Gen. Lcintis. On the Stli, at 4 o’clock,
I’. M., Gen. Lcinus was :1tCholul-.1, where
he lltltl :1 conference with Arista, iii conse-
quence of which the latter took anotiier di-
rection, for he foresaw that witliotit the ad-
liesioii of Gen. Lcinus, he could effect noth-
ing agniiist Pticbla. This city is fortified,
and in the best state of defence to repel any
invasion. The ciitliusiasiii of_thc troops is
ample.

At Mexico :1 party of fifty men declared
in favor of the new movement,ii1 the quar-
ters of the Piilacc, but in :1 few minutes
they were put down by about 200 gens cl’-
armcs, who surrounded them. There were
only five or ..ix killed, and a few wounded.

of llfny, brings intelligence that Don Mig-
uel’s fleet was lying at Lisbon at that time,
inactive for want of men. On the 12th
the govcriiiriciit coinincncctl pressing every
l’oi‘ttiguesc that could be found on b()lll‘(l the
shipping in port, as well as on shore, for the
army and iiuvy. On the 13th, on order
was issued to all the sliipxvriglits and caulk-
crs, forhiddiiig their working on uriy mer-
cliaiit vessels, until one of the govcrui1iciit’s
old ships, which had been coiidcniiictl, was
l'C[)‘.tll'C(l, and rcq-.iiring them to work on
board every day, not excepting Sundays.

Don Pedro was expcccd at Lisbon in
about ten days, and it was thought that he
would be received with open arms by all
classes. The cause of Don Miguel was
very unpopular among the people, but they,
of course, did not dare to express their 0-
piiiion openly. Descrtions were fl'C(]tlt)lil.'.
and to :1 considerable t-xtcnt, both from the
army and navy, mostly in consequence of
not receiving their pay. It was stated that
Don Miguel had not paid his men in sixteen
months. The cholera had been rzigiiig at
Lisbon, but in :1 great measure subsided.

The Cape (lc Vcrcls.—‘1Ve have recently
heard much of the sufieriugs of the irih:ib-
itants of those islands, :1nd had hoped that
:1 briglitcr scene had dawned on the dis
trcssotl population. ‘We have, however,
just received it letter from :1 vtilnctl friend
who toticlicd at the Islands in the spring
from which we make the following C.\’tl'{tCt :

“Our stay at Port I’i'aya was too short to
become f:1miliai' with the mririncrs and cus-
toms of the pcople—but we were long
enough to witness some of tlic still'ci'iiigs
which this group of of Islands has recently
experienced. They are not yet at an end;
they :1rc still dying daily do some oftlic poor
I saw picked up by their limbs as :1 butch-
cr’s boy would pick up slangliterctl sheep,
and c=.ii'i'icd througli the street, without.
even :1 “grave cloth,” btiricd as you would
bury :1 horse or :1 dog. Faininc is sweep-
ing over these “little specks on the occaii,”
with for more foarfuliicss than the Clioleru
in America. The vessel from I’ortland,
and that from Pliildclpliia, both with pro-
vissions, for the dying, :il‘l'ortlcd new life to
the almost dead. Notlcss than tllll't_'-l.lll'CC
tlioiisi1iid,out ofoiic hundred tliousiuid have
died with in one short year. The scenes of
wrctcliedncss:1spresontcd at America, Bra-
vo and Togo, are beyond dcscriptioii.

“AtSt.J:1go there was but little ofit coin-
parzitively, except those who llocl-:c:. there
for relief from the other lslaritls. Those of
them who still lived were grouped together
in :1 large yard, under the direction of the
police or the American Consul, and fed
from provisions which our country has so
kindly sent to them. The scene v.-‘as an
atllicting one. Here and there I poiritcd to
little orpliaii cliildrcu, who had neither‘ fa-
ther, motlier, brother nor sister left. Some
of them were sitting on the ground with a
little garment thrown over them to screen
them from the winds which were their blow-
ing very coldly, and so far goiic,:is to he cii-
tircly iiisensiblc of what was passiiig orounil
them, and as if patiently waiting for death
to relieve them from their stift'e1";ngs. Olli-
crs were walking as more skeletons on earth
crying with pitcotis, means for “bi'e:1d,” but
whose stornaclis, when given, were to weak
to derive any iiourisliiriciit from it. Moth-
ers, with nothing but skin and bones them-
sclvc, were bowing and courtising for :1 cop-
per to btiy something for their cliiltlrcii,
with an itnportmiity that might move :1
stone. Such a sight I had never before
witnescd, and it has left an iinpi'cssioii
which cannot be forgotten. But God is
just and good.”—Spectator.

Aimtlicr Paper in Ncw- Y0rk.——\Ve learn
that lllaj. M. M. Noah is about to com-
inciicc the publication of :1 newspaper in
this city—tolie issued semi-weekly. It will
be political, of course; but of wli:1t cast is
not so CCl‘lLdlll. The iiiiiiietliate object of
the Major, it is understoood, is to embark
in the war of the succession. Under what
banner, is not known to us. The Mz1joi"s
favorite candidate may be Judge M’Lc:1n,
or he may be Gov. Cass—tlic present able
and accomplished Secretary of \V:1r. It
will no he discredit to any man, orany party,
to support either of these gentlemen. In
any event it is understood that the Major
goes dead against Mr. Van Buren. Let
him have credit for so much virtue in his
ri per years.

The Parallel. The parallel bctwcem
the journey of the two Cliiefutiiis, Gen.
Jackson and Bliik Hawk, did not cease with
their respective departures from this city.
The atteiitious lavished upon both were
equally burthcnsomc. On arriving at Al-
bany, tlici'cfoi'e, the IvI:1wk,» almost broken
down with civilitics, resolved to enjoy no
more of tlicni, but to speed his way like an
arrow to his own native woods and pi'aric.s.
So with the Old Jiii’r:il at Concord : He
could endure no more, and therefore sud-
denly resolved to face “to the right about,”
and draw :1 bee line to the capital.——Spcc.

Stiikiiigr Contrast.-—Tlicre is 'certaiiily
:1 very striking contrast between the views "
of Mr. Jefr'erson and Mr. Jackson, relative
to public demonstrations of veneration and .
respect. Mr Jefferson on all occasions
avoided the pomp-and parade of military
and civic celebrations, and discouraged his
frien s‘ from paying that homage to him,-
wliicli he considered due to no man, claim- _
ing the name of :1 republican. The fol-
lowing extract froui tli “Life, VVi°itings and '
0=,')ltllt)l)S of Thomas Jefferson,” by B._L.
Rayner, lute Editor oftlie Jcffersonian, will
show Mr. Jeffcrsoti’s views on the subject.
"-The (.ltll.O ofliis nativity was unknown
until his death, It had been 21 subject of
speciilatioii and eager scrtitiiiy among the
votaries of liberty, for :1 long series of years
with :1 view of its special .C0mm(‘lYl0l'atl0ll.
Repeated attempts had been made to- as-
certiiiii it, by formal applications to him
personally, on various occiisions, by idol-
viduitls and public homes; but from scru-
ples ofu patriotic nature, he always de-
clinetlrcvcalingit, and enjoined the same"
privacy tipoii his family. The principles
which dctermiiied him on this subject, were‘
the great indclicacy and impropriety in per-
milting liimself to be made the recipitant
of an homage, so incompatible with the
staunch dignity and indepciidauce of the
republican cliaracter; the still greater re-
pugiiniicc which he should feel, to seeing
t.lic birth day liouors of the Republic trans-
fcri'ed,in:1ny degree, to any individual;
and the paramouiit importance over ten-
dency to l'aii'iiliarize the moral sense of free‘-
incn to the artificial forms tlll(l cerimonies
ofroyalty. He thought lie discovered in
the birth day C(£lL‘lJl‘tlllOllS of particular '
persons, :1 germ ofiwistocratical distinction, .
which was iiiciiinbaiit tipoii all such persons
by timely concert and example, to crusliin
the bud.” _ -
If we are tojudgc from the delight with
which Mr. Jacksoii manifestly receives the
liomzigc of his couuti'_vmcn, and his efforts
to attriict publicnotict-. and attciition as he
passes througli the cotintry, we cannot doubt
the fact, that his views in this respect are
totally déficrciit from those eiitertaiiied
by Mr. Jcifcrsoii. lie evidently fears no
“aristoci':itic:1l distiiictioiis,”
exertions to crtisli them in the boil.”-

'1'/is Sea Smpcnfs and the Stcaiiz Boat.-
Thc steamer Connecticut arrived this morn-

for about an hour in cliiisirig :1 shoal of Sea
Serpents. About six o’clock Inst evoi1iii+_,f
:1 schooner iifl'Nali:1iit hailed the Connecti-

look out, he niiglit see the Sea Serpent, for

one Sea Serpent alone, but three, some say
four, :1ppc.'ti'ed in sight. All the passeiigcrs
