The French government is extending 
on every side the system of intolerance 
im religion, politics and commerce. One 
great staple of the Netherlands (Flemish 
linens) has just been smitten by an 
ordinance of Charles X. ; 
The Ghent. Journal‘sarcastically re- 
minds his Bourbon’ Majesty of the 
rei -hundred days, when-it was 
n the power of the, Flemings to have 
jeid® on embargo on <certain. things, 
which would effectually have prevented 
either “King Charles, or his brother 
Louis, from annoying Dutch and Flem- 
ish industry. The Chamber of Com- 
merce at Courtrays have petitioned the 
Belgic minister for measures of reprisal 
upon France. 
. The most recent intelligence from the 
vicinity. of the Pyrenees intimates the 
formation of another French Cordon 
Sanitaire, whose object is. believed to 
be to mitigate the pestilence of super- 
stitidn, despotism and anarchy, which 
has resulted from the former medica- 
ment of the monarchic doctors. In 
other words, it is said, that France is 
now preparing to restrain, by force, the 
madness of Ferdinand and the priests, 
and: ‘to: re-place,* by a more Jegitimate, 
the constitutional strait-waistcoat they 
so lately tore away. ; 
. The attack: made | upon the general 
government of the United States by 
the committee of the legislature of 
Georgia, has, it seems, been attended 
with no result. The legislature of that 
state adjourned on the llth of June 
without calling up the fiery report and 
resolutions, &c. ‘ 
A tacit or implied, rather than actual 
recognition of the Haytian Government, 
by the French, has taken place :— 
the price paid to France for this act of 
justice and policy, is 150 millions of 
francs, or about 6 millions sterling; and 
ascovenant, on'the part of the Hay- 
tians, that ‘the manufactures, &c. ‘of 
France’ shall be admitted at one-half 
the rate of duties imposed on those of

Lord Bacon says, “the great: inno-

“A ‘document has'been published in the 
Journal des Débats; asthe address of a 
Greek agent—Captain-Nicholas-Kiefla, 
resident in Rome—to his Holiness Pope 
Leo XIL, in the name of the provisional 
government and clergy of: Greece, to 
procure a king, through the: interven- 
tion of the Pope, but to ‘be appointed 
by certain ‘sovereigns : with 8 proposal, 
also, to ‘unite the Greek Church with 
the Roman Catholic, and to recognize 
the Pope as Supreme Pastor. More 
recent. intelligence, however, shews/this 
to be a mere papal hoax. The Greek 
deputies disclaim Capt. Nicholas Kiefla, 
his mission and authority ; and the-very 
existence of such a person is called in 
question. a 
An arrangement has been’ concluded 
with Lord Cochrane, by which a large 
sum of money (not less, it is said, than 
£300,000) is to be immediately placed 
at the disposal of his Lordship, to: be 
expended by him as he may think most 
advisable for the successful prosecution 
of operations against the Turks. » His 
Lordship, on his return from Seotland, 
will immediately proceed for Greece ; 
he will take with him steam-vessels, and 
all sorts of matériel necessary for the 
particular sort of warfare he contem- 
plates. The crisis of Turkey seems at 
hand—the Turks have left_ themselves 
no means of carrying on war; they have 
made deserts of the country they wish- 
-ed to recover—and hence their armies 
have fallen victims to famine rather than 
the sword: while the Greeks have be- 
taken themselves, with all their portable 
stores, to their hill fastnesses. On’ the 
first rumour of this intelligence, one e 
nent banking-house’ inthe Strand=pur- 
chased, through’ their broker, £59,000 
of Greek serip.” {01072084 Dasloygane
