SPIRIT 0? THE MOBNTNQ PRESS.
The Intelligence eschews editorial to
day.
The Union devotes a column to an on
slaught against the late speech of General
Cullom. The allegation is that Mr. Gid
dings and his friends have found a co-la
borer in General C., notwithstanding the
fact that the General represents a south
ern district. Mr. Clingman, writing from
the House over his own signature, to the
Union, makes a strong epistolary argu
ment against the insane bill; placing his
opposition to it principally on the ground
of its unconstitutionality.
The Sentinel gives the Union and the
administration some of its old-fashioned
44 independent support," accusing them
of breaking down the Democratic party?
of causing its "disintegration." It will
do the editor good to read what we
write in another column, on the disinte
gration of both parties. There are plain
truths there, on which the people may
ponder to advantage.
BEBHETI'S STANDING LIES.
The number of falsehoods of Bennett
of the Herald, is legion. It matters not
how glaring they are shown to be, or how
often disproved, he still clings to them
with an astonishing pertinacity. We
give, to-day, four of his most notorious
lies, which, though corrected, he is almost
daily repeating. We notice his delibe
rate lie, stating that Mr. Buchanan de
nounced President Pierce's policy in the
presence of Judge Douglas and himself.
Judge Douglas contradicts this, by say
ing he was not within one hundred miles
of Bennett at any one time in Europe.
Second, his lie that half of the Star is
owned by Colonel Forney, who has not,
and never had, a penny's interest in it,
and never contributed a line to its col
umns. Third, that Jefferson Davis is in
terested in the Gadsden treaty, a false
hood so atrocious that it would cost Ben
nett his ears if he even uttered it in the
presence of gentlemen in this city. Fourth,
that President Pierce instigated the diffi
culty between Messrs. Breckinridge and
Cutting, a lie so gross that the bar-room
topers here would blush to repeat it. So
much for to-day.
AH INTERESTING WORE.
Joe Shillington sends us " Slade's
Travels in Turkey," published by Wm.
Taylor & Co., No. 18 Ann street, New
"Vork. The author is Adolphus Slade, an
Englishman, who is, or was, an admiral
of the Turkish fleet; a devil-may-care
sailor, who tells of the Turks and Turkey
just as he knows them ; treating subjects
of peculiar interest at this time in a very
agreeable, yet blunt way. Nothing
likely to interest an American inquirer
relative to Turkey, her people, their man
ners, customs, Ac., seems to have es
caped him. The book is much after the
order of that of J. Ross Browne, em
bracing more details of fact, if less
sprightliness. It is well worth reading.
Db. Ives's Nbw Work?W. A. Ken
nedy, bookseller, Seventh street, between
G and H, has laid on our table the work
of Dr. Ives, entitled " The Trials of a
Mind in its Progress to Catholicity." It
cannot fail to be interesting to other de
nominations than Catholics.
[Ty* The Richmond Examiner says:
" TJose who speak of Mr. Daniel as
still editor or owner of this neivspaper,
speak absurdly, and do him wrong. Mr.
Daniel has no more control over or share
of. or property or interest in, this estab
lishment, than the man in the moon.
Mr. D. has a right, after a term of years,
to purchase a fractional interest in this
newspaper; but that, as the lawyers
would say, is an interest in future, and
contingent a right in posse, and not in
esse."
So much the greater pi ty. The friends
of the Examiner indulged the fond hope
that his bold, life-giving pen, would soon
aga:n grace its columns, which are now
so dull and crazy.

We invite attention to the fact that Mown
F. W. A R. King, of Baltimore, have removed
their establishment frem No. 33 Sooth street,
to No. 22# Baltimore street, in that city, one
door east of Charles, in the Theatre building.
At the same time we desire to commcnd to all
purchasers of such instruments as are manu
factured by these gentlemen, the excellence
and superiority of the workmanship through
out. The Measn. King came to Baltimore
from New York, furnished with the most ex
tensive experience in every department of the
business, and by their seal, industry and en
terprise, they have given an impetus to their
peculiar profession it never had before Sac
cess has rewarded their efforts, and they now
take a central position in the city, and enter
upon possession with a wide-spread and well
earned reputation. These are the sort of men
?practical, energetic, and skilful artisans and
manufacturers?that add t? the real wealth
and attractiveness of every city, and we hope
that the Messrs. King, and all others who thus
oontribute to industrial enterprise, will find
in public oonfidence and general patronage,
their well deserved reward.

WAJHUGTOJI IXVI AMD 80SSIF.
The Disintegration of Parties ?We believe
it is very generally admitted that what w? the
great national Whig party In 1848, has no
longer an existence. One has but to be in
Washington for ? month to realize the fact,
however. There is no longer accord between
the mass of the southern and northern Whigs,
those of the format willing to eonticue oornec
tion with the latter, being a* scarce as Silver
Grays are, since Mr. Fillmore went out
of power. This split has resulted from differ
ence on principles. It is widening hourly, the
northern Whigs of Congress becoming more
anti-feouthern ia their tendencies, while the
southern Wbfgs fare hourly coming to look
more favorably on principles and measures
which, in the canvass of 1844, ware regarded
as thosa only of persons fully identified with
the great Democratic party. This matter is
thoroughly understood among politicians here,
all of whom, without discretion of party, have
long tinea ceased to make any question con
cerning the correctness of this statement. The
disruption; however, has not been confined to
the Whig party; the affairs of the other side
being also in a shocking condition. On the De
mocratic side, however, a difference on prin
ciples has very little to do with the trouble.
! The Hards are off?gone from their national
organization, past per adventure. They are by
long odds the most bitter revilers of the Demo
cracy of the South, without distinction of sec
tion; both sections of the southern Democracy
being now recognised as supporters of the
Pierce administration with equal iest. As
bitterly as they hate President Pierce, they
avow sentiments of equal hostility to the south
ern Democratic party, for failing to justify and
sustain them in their opposition to the National
Administration. These facts are appreciated
by all close observers now in W ashington,
whare it is anticipated that, witbin a year, they
will openly support the most ultra anti-south
ern measures and views which may be mooted.
This split, as we have time and again ex
plained, originate? from the failure of the Ad
ministration to submit to their dictation in the
matter of dividing out the spoils. No one pre
tends te claim for it a more respectable origin.
The same cause has operated among other
Democrats in public life, to produce a state of
virulent and bitter opposition in the bosom of
the party, of which the Democratic masses
have very little idea, indeed. There are many
gentlemen around us who would profess to feel
insulted if asked whether they are. or are not.
in opposition at this time?who lose no possi
ble opportunity to embarrass the administra
tion, where that can be done without fixing
upon them ordinary responsibility for their
acts, sentiments and opinions (uttered al
ways under circumstances wherein it is sup
posed that the Democratic party at home can
never come to understand their import in their
length and breadth,) which would make the
hair of the "dear people" stand on end as it
were, oould they comprehend the condition of
'The Harmoneous," and the course of many
gentlemen with very fair words on their lips
for the public ear, to be precisely what
they are. Disappointment about office for
their immediate strikers, is at the bottom
of all this. Under the Polk administration
the system was initiated of devoting the pat
ronage of the Executive branch of the Govern
ment to strengthen gentlemen in public life.
Thus, the reoommendation of one such person,
ere the close of Mr. Polk's term, became strong
enough in all cases to outweigh any and all
other backing whatever, for office.
Under the Taylor Administration, a check
was. is a measure, put to this tendency of
things; some appointments-being made in de
fiance of the class who were considered almost
alone proper to be consulted under that of his
predecessor.
On the accession of Mr. Fillmore, those
Whigs "who failed to obtain the weight in the
distribution of Taylors patronage to which they
claimed to be entitled.obtained the upper-hand>
and exerted themselves until the last hour of
Mr. F.'s power, to punish those for whom they
believed themselves to have been sacrificed
under Taylor. Mr. Fillmore's administration'
however, made it a point to be governed and
guided by Senatorial recommendations com
ing from the Democratic side of the Chamber,
almost as implicitly as from Silver Greys.?
They ignored all party distinctions with ref
erence to Senatorial recommendations; that is.
except when they came from friends of Gov
Seward, who were one and all taboed.
The Pierce administration have evidently
aimed to restore matters of this sort to the
channel in which they ran long before Polk's
time; treating the recommendations of mem
bers of either House of Congress (on the Dem
ocratic side) as not being entitled to invariable
precedence over those of party men outside of
the national legislature. As more or less of
the members are very anxious to obtain office
for particular individuals, some of such gen
tlemen, when disappointed, become very indig
nant, and essay to punish the patronage dis
pensing power to the best of their ability.
That is, in a way in which they will not be,
ultimately, punishing themselves. We mus
do the Democrats of both Houses the justice
to say, that the number who are supposed to
be urging that the members of the Adminis
tration shall sacrifice their views of the fitnegj
of things in making appointments? always to
those of the member assuming to be most in
terested, is small. Nevertheless, the little
band is making music here in a quiet way, just
now, dictating newspaper attacks on the Pres
ident and individual members of the Cabinet
in all directions, and spouting what would be
called the foulest treason to " the party,"
wherever that can be done under pretty cer
tain assurances that such 41 Democracy" can
not be ohalked up against them for reference
on settling day at home.
For our part, we have seen enough since the
first Monday of December last, to satisfy us
that the two great parties are completely dis
organised?the Whigs over principles, and
the Democrats over the spoils. It is rare,
indeed, to meet a Democratic member who iu
conversation differs from the Administration
upon a single measure of importance, except
the Nebraska bill; yet by no means so rare
to find one unwilling to rate the President and
cabinet roundly, always admitting, on being
clftsely questioned, that disregard of their rec
ommendations for office is at the bottom of the
war they are making on them.
Doubtless, were the Whigs in power, they,
too, would .evince like symptoms of disin
tegration of the party, on account of disap
pointments with reference to the spoils. The
truth is, present parties are melting away.
The mass of the politicians of the country
have already become office-hunters. They
seem inclined to set up nomination for seats in
the House and Senate of the United States, as
rewards for successful office-hunting in their
behalf: marking any member who fails to ob
tain place for them, as a doomed wan, what
ever may be his character, attainments and
capacity for the discharge of his public duties
for the advantage of his country. The foun
dation of the evil is at home, not here; a
there can hardly be a gentleman in either
Hous? of Congress, who does not dislike and
dread the importunities of the offioe-seekers
of his district, worse than any thing else to
be thought of.
Slight Mistakes.?The Herald is hard put
to it indeed, to make out its allegation* against
John W. Forney. In that paper of yesterday,
among its erroneous items of information from
tCashington, the ownership of half the Star
is transferred to Mr. F, and he is stated to bi
the Star's editor! When will Bennett manage
to get people here in his employment, who wi 1
tell his readers the truth ? There was a time
when the hands of such persons were seen in
his information-from Washington. They made
for the Herald the character which it has since
lost. In the matter of this bogus information,
we have to say that John W. Forney owns no in
terest in it whatever, nor has he anything to do
with its editorial colamns. The Star is more
exclusively conduoted by its ostensible editors
than any other paper in the United States
wherein as much original matter is published.
As for Mr. Forney, he has written nothing for
I it; while his pen has time and again graced
the columns of the Herald, when a gentleman
oould venture to furnish for it the brains and
attainments which its conductor lacks, with
out experincing a sense of eelf-degradation in
so doing.
An Expected Veto.?A good deal of excite
ment is just now manifested among the politi
eians around us, under tho belief that the
President will be very apt to veto the insam
land bill. Wo are well satisfied that nothing
is known authoritatively with reference to th?.
President's views concerning this particulai
bill. Yet the impression certainly prevail*
among the shrewd ones that a veto will coo:e
upon it in due time. Its friends may watcL
and pray.
The Greek Attempt at Revolution.?Though
all know that very recently there has been an
attempt at revolution a'nong the Greek sub
jects of the Porte, nothing has so far beeD
published concerning its details. A mercan
tile friend of ours in New York, has received
three interesting letters from an intelligent
commercial correspondent at Patras, present
ing an interesting account of what the insur
gents have been about in that quarter. Wo
are^indebted to his kiudness for the letters in
question, and herewith present them to our
readers :
Patras, March 2, 1854.
Despatches received on the 26th ult. from
Arta. bring the news that on the 20th a Turk
ish vessel, laden with ammunition, arrivod at
Salaora, the port of Arta, from Prevera, for
the defence of the fortress, and 300 Turks
marched down to receive it. Corcealis having
been informed of this, hastened to attack them
at the head of a handful of men, but on ac
count of the smallness of this detachment, he
was forced to throw himself into the 4,'onvent
of St. Voneranda, and was there besieged by
the Turks.
Generals Grivas and Tervas hastened to his
aid with their troops, surrounded and beseiged
tlie Turks in the village of Calicniades, an I
after a bloody engagement oa the 22d. 280
Turks remained on ihe field of battle and the
Greeks in possession of the ammunition.
The English and French Ministers resident
at Athens have written to their respective
consuls here, that thov entirely disapprove
the insurrection of the Epirus, and that the
consequences can be of no good to this King
dom.
On the 24th inst., 220 armed men left this
for the camp of the insurgents; all irregular
troops.
Patras, March 15, 1854.
Various skirmishes have taken place, the
results of which have been favorable to the
Greeks. Tkessaly has also united in the in
surrection, and the number of insurgents may
bo calculated at 9,000 or more.
On the 8th instant, 450 armed men left this
place for the camp, headed by Captain Milio
Aiiother 1000 from the Morea are expected to
pass through here in the course ol the week
under the command of Colocotroni and others
A body of 300 men are preparing in this place
to leave for the camp, who will be commanded
by Londo, the ex-minister of justice during the
ministry of Mavrocordato.
On the 10th another body of 200 men with
four small field pieces, also left this place, hav
ing marched through the town with colors fly
ing and cheered by the people. Enthusiasm
and excitement are at their acme, and are now
openly manifested, while the menaces of the
Western Powers do not abate the fanaticism of
the insurgents, nor impede their plans.
A body of troops was landed at Prevcsa.
which were to advance through Salaora to the
dcfence of Arta, but the passes were occupied
by General Zavellas at the head of about 2000
men. who had cut trenches. A battle took place
between them, the result of which is not yet
known.
General Grivas, with about 4000 men, having
entered Jannina, wa* well received by the in
habitants, who oJered him $15,000 to pay his
troops and mal itain order, while the Pasha
and his garrison were forced to close them
selves in the citadel.
Three Turkish steamers which took the
troops to Prevesa, are in Corfu preparing t<
sail to Egypt, to transport more troops into the
Epirus.
The Lord High Commissioner of the Ionian
Inlands has issued very severe orders againsl
i the exit of people from the Islands in aid ol
the insurgents and declares any one who dis
obeys his orders outlawed.
Patras, March 22. 1854.
Since tho 15th instant, the insurrection has
daily assumed a more regular and developed
fooling.
On tne 10th, General Grivas was without Jan
nina, at the he.id of only 300 men, the rest
being spread here and there. By the treach
ery of a Pasha and two Greek spies, who re
ported that the Greeks were only in a smail
number and unprepared, a body of 1700 troopt
and 100 cavalry was sent by the Turks to at
tack them. an?i two hours beforo daylight thej
had possessed themselves of the ammunition.
The fight lasted twelve hours, at the end ol
which the Greeks were driven back by the ar
tiller}', and their houses and a church was
burnt. There remained on the field of battle
2oi) killed and 150 wounded on the part of the
Turks, and 40 killed and 60 wounded on thf
part of the Greeks.
On the 15th instant, another skirmish took
place outside Arta. Tavellas, Tervas and Ca
nis Kaki having advanced with a strong de
tachment. the battle begau, and tho Turks were
o iliged to retire into tho fortress of Arti, leav
ing 80 killed and many wounded. The loss
on the part of the Greeks is stated at 50, be
tween killed and woundel.
The latest news from tho frontier is that a
courier extraordinary had arrivedfrom Anino,
bringing the news that fightiiig still continue.
near Arta, and that Dever Bey, Achmet Pashn
and Miralai, the chief of the artillery, had
been killed in Jannina.
The insurrection is now as much extended ir
Thessaly as el.-ewhere, and various skirmishes
hive taken pluce there with results favorable
to the insurgents.
The Austrian steamer arrived this morning
from Lutraski, bringing the following impor
tant news:
Tho Porto has sent a note to the Greek Gov
ernment, requiring that it should recall from
tho Epirus all the revolutionary Greek Chiefs
who bad left this ki.igdom (after handing in
their dismissions from the posts they occupied)
should puni-h ihem and dissolve the commit
tees, and at the same time prevent the press
fr >in publishing libellous statements against
Turkey, and that if within 48 hours the Greek
Government does not accede to the demands of
the Porte, its Ambassador is to demand his
pass ports.
The Franking Privilege ?It is held in the
Post Office Department that the franking priv
ilege is not regulated or governed, in any rc
spcct, by the mode of conveyance of the mail;
that a letter, properly franked, is entitled to
be sent free of postage by horse, stage, rail
road, steamboat, or auy other mode by which
the mail may bo transported. And further,
that the franking privilege is a personal one,
and travels with the person possessing it.
Commodore Newton, the commander of the
Home squadron, reached Washington this
morning. We take it for granted, therefore,
that his ship, the frigate Columbia, has arrived
at Norfolk, Virginia, where she was expected
csterday morning from Havana
More Nebraska Indians Here.?Last even
ing Major Kobinaon, agent for the Shawnee*
and Delawares, and General Winfield, con
nected w?'th the Platte Indian agency, arrived
bore with nineteen Delawares and Shawnoes
and two interpreters. These sons of the forest
oome to Washington to make treaties with the
Commissioner of Indian Affairs for the relin
quishment of a portion or the whole of their
lands in Nebraska and Kansas. They occupy
the lands on both sides of the Kansas from its
mouth far SO miles up.
The Gadsden Treaty.?The usually best in
formed persons in Washington concerning su?h
matters, are certainly to-day under the im
pression that the Gadsden treaty cannot fail to
be confirmed.

PERSONAL.
.... Col. Ingraham, the defeated Demo
cratic candidate for Governor of Connecticut,
is in Washington. He is a bluff, hearty ami
emphatic looking old gentleman, with all the
points of appearance necessary in the making
up of a very popular man. As a matter of
;ourse, the newly elected Connecticut Legisla
ture will select one of his two opponents. It
is understood that the one receiving the leas*,
number of popular votes (the Whig candi
date) is to be that man. The Temperance and
Tsmatic candidate generally, lead- the Whig in
the popular contest. The Legislature do right,
however, in throwing him aside.
...Thomas Bragg, Esq., of Northampton
county, N. C., was nominated yesterday by
the Democratic Convention of that State for
Governor. He is a brother of Hon. J. Bragg,
of Alabama, and of Capt. Braxton Bragg, of a
?'little more grape" memory. Ho is an able
man.
....The Rev. J. B. Grinnell, who has been
for five years pastor of a Congregational
Church in New York, has started for Sugar
Grove, Iowa, sixty-five miles west of Iowa city,
where ho h?s purchased 8.000 aores of land,
for the use of a colony of about thirty families,
who are about to take up their residence at
that fertile spot.
... .Senor Lorenzo Armeda, Spanish Minis
ter to Mexico, was in Boston stopping at the
Revere House.
... .The trial of Stevenson, Parker and oth
ers, commenced Wednesday morning, at Eas
ton. Pa. It is a oasc of conspiracy to extort
money from Benjamin Green, an aged citizen.
Stevenson pleads guilty to the charge. Con
siderable excitement prevails in Easton. the
parties being all of the highest respectability,
and the defendants are among the wealthiest
citizens.
.... An acquaintance of ex-Rev. Free-soiler
Burr, who knew him when a rabid Wilmot
Provisoist, a short time since asked him how
he reconciled his present course with the past.
To which Chauncey replied, " why you see
when a pup is first born, it is several days be
fore its eyes are opened eo that the animal
can see; when I was a free-soiler I was a blind
pup, now I am a full grown dog and can see."
He could with propriety have added?and a
miserable cur at that.
... .Mr. W. H. Riley, of Boston, a brother
in-law of W. R. Goodall, has debuted success
fully in Cleveland.
.... The Pittsburg Journal says it has re
ceived private letters which intimate a doubt
whether Judge Pollock will maintain the field
as Whig nominee for Governor, as seme strong
and conspicuous Whigs are in favor of the
Judge withdrawing to leave a free field to
David Wilmot to beat Bigler. The Journal
seems taken with this idaa vastly.
....We have seen the proof sheets of the
"Biographies of Bennett's Washington Car
rion Birds'"?the men who collect filth, in this
city, for the Herald?in which a perfect da
guerreotype of each individual is given. When
this publication is given to the public, an ex
pose of the manner in which the Herald's
pimps endeavor to get news will be seen, that
will be perfectly astounding?something here
tofore unequalled in the annals of newsgath
ering.
... .The Dublin Nation has quite turned
upon its old friend John Mitchel. It says :
" His brain appears to have been turned,
his heart to have grown hopelessly malcontent
in exile, and ho see3 the world again only to
scofi' and sneer and make it echo with his
egotism. Eight numbers of his paper still
leave a doubt whether the writer is merely a
little insane, or a good deal possessed of a
devil."
DOINGS IN CONGRESS.
Senate.?Yesterday, after an Executive ses
sion of some hours, the doors were re-opened,
and the Senate adjourned till Monday.
In the House, yesterday, at the conclusion
of the remarks of Mr. Harris, of Alabama, in
favor of the bill to authorize the continuance
of the existing mail contract between Mobile
and Montgomery, it was further advocated by
Messrs. Cobbaud Jones, of Georgia.
Mr. Seward moved to lay it on the table; not
agreed to.
The said joint resolution was then passed.
The House then went into Committee on the
West Point Academy appropriation bill, (Mr.
Jones, of New York, in the chair.) The pend
ing amendment, appropriating $20,000 for a
Cavalry Exercise (i. e. Riding school) hall, was
agreed to?yeas Co, nays 55.
The committee also amended the bill by
making the compensation of the master of
?'Sword Exercise," (i. e. Fencing Master)
$1200 per annum?yeas 69, nays 66.
Tho committee then rose, and the amend
ments to this bill being agreed to, the said bill
as amended, was duly passed.
Mr. Hastings (who is about to leave Wash
ington for a season) asked, and obtained leave
to have his undelivered speech on the Nebras
ka bill inserted in tho Congressional proceed
ings.
The House then adjourned.

FURTHER BY THE ASIA.
Yesterday we gave, by telegraph, a }
ynopsis of the foreign news by the Asia.
To-day we give more interesting de
ails :
THE WA*.
The particulars of the capture of Do- '
>ruda8ha are given by the Vienna papers. J
Chey state that the Turkish fortresses of 1
tlatschin, Isaktsha. and Hirsowa were j
aken by the Russians on the 28th ult.,
ifter a seige of three days, by a vastly ,
juperior force. The operations against ,
Slatschin and Isaktscha were conducted
inder the orders of General Schilder, the
lead of the engineer corps of the Russian '
ictive army. The troops engaged at the
iret named fort were under the orders of
General Kotzebue, adjutant-general on
Prince GortchakofTs staff; and those
employed at Isaktsha, under General
Aurep, formerly commanding the advan
ced guard in Little Wallachia. On the
same day, the detached corps, under
3eneral UschakofF, which had advanced
from Tultscha, took the small fort of
Babadagh and Ilirsowa at Kasimtschi,
where the space between the Black Sea
ind the Danube contracts, and so cut off
the communications of the Turks as they
retired to Trajan's wall.
The Paris correspondence of the Lon
don Times, writing under date of April
Bih,says:
Despatches were received to-day at the
Turkish Embassy, from Vienna, confirm
ing what was said yesterday about the
defeat of the Russian General Uschakoff,
and the retreat of the corps on Bessara
bia. It is also stated that the forts said
to have been captured are still in the
hands of the Turks; that the Turks have
crossed the Danube at a point between
Nicopolis and Rusthhuk; that 20,000
Turks are on their way to Trajan's wall
or Rassava, and 25,000 for the same
direction from Shumla.
All these movements were spoken of
yesterday and the day before, and they
are again announced to-day. Reports are
also rife about advantages" near Kalafat.
But all these have to be confirmed offi
cially. The Patrie states that the account
of an advantage having been gained by
the Turks on the Lower Danube ap
peared to be confirmed. - "It is positive,"
says that journal, "that the Generol-in
chief of the Russian army, after the
passage of the troops into Dobrudacha,
considered his position so critical that he
immediately demanded reinforcements
from Bessarabia, Odessa, and even Se
vastopol.
FRANCE
Paris, April 6.?The legislative body
had submitted to it to-day a bill increas
ing to 140,000 men, instead of SO,000,
the number of recruits of the'class 1853.
The Moniteur of to-day says: "A report
has been circulated that the government
is about to make a fresh levy of 100,000
men. This statement is not exact.?
What is true is, that the government is
to present to-day to the legislative body
a bill to augment the contingent for the
service of 1853 by 60,000 men."
Prince Napoleon sets out on the 9th for
the army of the East. He will arrive on
the 10th at Lyons, on the 11th at Valence,
on the 12th at Avignon, on the 13th at
Marseilles, and the morning of the 14th
at Toulon.
The Moniteur announces, that the Aus
trian ambassador presented yesterday an
autograph letter from the Emperor of
Austria to the Emperor Napoleon.
TURKEY AND GREICS.
The Vienna papers publish advices from
Constantinople of the 27 th ult., according
to which the Porte has resolved to expel
all the subjects of King Otho from the
Sultan's dominions. A declaration of
war w is expected to accompany the exe
cution of this measure. The Turks have
in Thessaly and Epirus a force of 15,000
men, of whom 3,000 are cavalry, with
120 guns. As soon as the roads arc prac
ticable this corps will be reinforced, and
the insurrection, it is expected, will be
attacked in its centre and home, which
is Greece.
Arta, the fall of which has so many
time been reported from Athens, has a
garrison of 3,000 men. Sir Henry Ward,
Lord High Commissioner of the Ionian
Islands, has visited Fuad Effendi at Pre
vasa. From Athens, it is announced that
the ministers Christides and Paikos have
resigned. The fall of Suli, reported from
Athens, is not confirmed by direct advices
from Prevasa, though they are seven days
later.
PRUSSIA AND AUSTRIA.
It is stated by a gentleman arrived
from Berlin, that on the 29th ult. an im
portant demonstration of public feeling
against Russia was made in that city.?
Numerous bands marched in procession
through several streets, bearing flags
with inscriptions in favor of Turkey,
France and England, and crying, "Long
live the allied powers!" The procession
was attacked by the police, who dragged
the banners in the mud, and made several
arrests.
Vienna, April 1.?The Archduke A1
bert has left Vienna for Semlin, as Com
mander-in-chief of the army of observa
tion on the Turkish frontier. The army
on the frontier, including the inhabitants
who perform a permanent service, is not
less than 120,000 to 150,000 men.?
Stores are being collected on a large scale.
Negotiations have been going on between
the Treasury and the Bank for an ad
vance on the security of the state domains,
and the Bank has just declined the pro
posals.
8PAIN.
Forty thousand artisans filled the
streets of Barcolona on the 13th. Thev
were unarmed, and when summoned to
disperse they refused. They then turned
their steps towards the Garcia suburb,
in order to join their comrades outside
the walls. The gates were then barred
by the troops, who, when pelted with
stones by the mob, had recourse to their
arms. The result was. that several of
the mob were killed and wounded, after
which they dispersed.
IRELAND.
DrBLiN, April 0.?Our agricultural re
ports never were more satisfactory at this
season, the most cheering accounts of the
progress of farming work coming to us
from every quarter of the country. Wheat
is the great crop, and the quantity sown
by far exceeds that of last year. New
potatoes were yesterday cried for sale
through the streets.
Notwithstanding thecheering prospects
of the country, however, emigration pro
ceeds with even increased earnestness.
Large sums in the shape of remittances
from friends in America are received by al
most every mail, and it is said that in
one small locality in the county of Kerry,
250 letters, most of them containing
money ^orders, were received from
America last week.
The Limerick Chronicle says:?"Our
quays are crowded by emigrants who
have secured passages to Quebec and
New York in the vessels announced to sail
from this port; and by railway hun
dreds proceed daily to take shipping at
Liverpool."
