tion produced by the care of Dr. Automarchi has not continued, and many relapses took place during the concluding six months of last year, and the disease renders him weaker every day. Napoleon is extremely feeble and can scarce support half an hour's ride in a carriage with the horses walking. He can just walk in his chamber without assistance. To his liver complaint is added another disorder which belongs to this climate-his intestines are strongly attacked; his digestive organs no longer fulfil their functions, and his stomach rejects all which it receives. For some time Napoleon has eaten neither meat nor bread, nor vegetables; he lives but upon potted meats and ices. Count Bertrand wrote in September last to Lord Liverpool, to demand the removal of the Emperor to a more favourable climate; and to convince him of the necessity of its being in the neighbourhood of mineral waters, I have given M. Bonavita a copy of this letter. The governor, Sir Hudson Lowe, refused to transmit it to his government, under the vain pretext that it gave to Napoleon the title of emperor. Monsieur Bonavita departs to-day

for Rome; he has experienced the cruel influence of the climate of St. Helena; one year's residence in this island will cost him six of his existence. The letter which

M. Automarchi has written to Cardinal Fesch will give your Highness the circumstantial details of the Emperor's disease. The journals of London constantly publish letters under the head of St. Helena, which abound with lies, and which are fabricated to deceive Europe. Napoleon hopes that your Highness will endeavour to make known the real state of his malady. He dies, without succour, on a frightful rock; his agony is terrible.

Letter from General Count Bertrand to Lord Liverpool.

"Longwood, Sept. 3, 1820. "MY LORD,—I had the honour of writing to you on the 25th of June, 1819, to inform you of the situation of the health of the Emperor, who, since the month of October, 1817, has been attacked by a chronical complaint in the liver. Dr. Automarchi arrived here in September last: he dedicated all his care to Napoleon, who obtained from it some relief; but since this physician has declared, as appears from his notes and bulletins, that the disease had reached a point at which the aid of medicine could do nothing against the pernicious effects of the climate; that mineral watersappeared to him to become necessary; that so long as he remained at St. Helena, his life would be only a long agony, and that he could hope for no relief but by returning to Europe, his strength being entirely worn out by a residence of five years in the dreadful climate of St. Helena; by

the privation of every necessary, and by the bad treatment of which he has been the object.

"In consequence, the Emperor commands me, my Lord, to demand, as the only means of preservation which remains to him, to be transferred to Europe. Letter from the Military Secretary to General Bertrand.

"Plantation-house, Sept. 8. 1820. "SIR,-The instructions addressed to the Governor, not permitting him to receive letters in which the title of Emperor is given to Napoleon Buonaparte, I am commanded to return that which you have addressed to Sir Hudson Lowe; you will find it inclosed.

"The Governor commands me at the same time to observe to you, that he has never received the letter which you state that you addressed to him, the 25th June, 1819, for Lord Liverpool.

SPAIN AND PORTUGAL.

The friends of liberty and liberal opinions can desire nothing more gratifying than the progress of events in the Peninsula. The only error in policy is the notion that foreign colonies are of any other use to a parent state beyond that of adding to the corrupt influence of the government; and hence every obstacle is opposed to the independence of the South American provinces.

In Portugal some admirable laws, dictated by the true spirit of philosophy, have been adopted for securing the liberty of the press, which may, as long as they are in force, be considered as better secured in Portugal than in any country in Europe.

MADRID, Aug. 13.-The Miscellanea has published the proceedings instituted against the authors of the military massacres in Cadiz on the fatal 10th of March last year. The result of the testimony of a great crowd of witnesses prove that every possible means of seduction was employed to induce the soldiers to massacre the inhabitants. Brandy and money were distributed in the taverns. The Generals Campana, Freyre, Rodriguez, and Valdez; the Colonels, Gabarre and Capacete, and many subaltern officers, are greatly compromised. The sentence will be quickly pronounced. The three generals and the superior officers are strictly guarded. The people wait with great impatience for justice. There were 156 persons killed or severely wounded.

TURKEY AND GREECE.

The exaggerated and contradictory

accounts

accounts of the momentous and tragical ́ ́ occurrences in these countries have induced us to forbear the intrusion of them. But as the results now enable us to state that nearly the whole of Greece has been emancipated from the horrid Turkish yoke, we submit beneath some of the last accounts:-

"VIENNA, Aug. 13.-The ordinary mail from Constantinople arrived today with letters to the 25th of July. The ultimatum of Russia had been delivered on the 18th; and the time fixed by the Emperor Alexander for the answer expires on the 28th. All the subjects of Russia had quitted Constantinople: the few Russian vessels which remained in the harbour with corn had just hoisted the French flag. Baron Strogonoff, the Russian ambassador, strictly guarded by the Janissaries, was expecting at Bujukdere the resolution which the Porte would take on the 26th, and the categorical answer of the divan."

"ZANTE, July 20.-The sailors of Galaxidi, a town in Doris, situated at the entrance of the Gulf of Crissa, who are not pirates, as they have been called, cruize with so much success from the Dardanelles of Lepante to Corinth, that this place, which is blockaded by land, and can secure no succour by sea, must soon fall. Athens has just constituted. itself a provisional republic, under the standard of the cross. Livadea, Salona, (Amphissa,) Coda, (Platea,) all the villages of Phocis, Bedia, and Megaris, have adhered to the compact of union of the Athenians. Hydra, Egina, Salamis, and Zea, have sent their adherence to the acts of the senate of the city of Minerva; and every thing allows us to hope that the destinies of Greece are going to change. The indignation of the Ionians against the English is at its height, since they see that the merchants of a free people furnish provisions to the Turks in the fortresses in the Morea, which, but for this aid, would have been long since reduced.

"MARSEILLES, August 15.-Thesquadron of Tripoli, consisting of a corvette, three polacres, a brig, and a xebeck, have fallen into the hands of the Greeks.

All the accounts from the Morea represent the affairs of Greece as flourishing. The Greek vessel which came to Marseilles for arms sailed some time ago. She took on board, besides the young men and mechanics who had been waiting for her departure, thirty French officers who have gone to support the cause of Greek independence. On the eve of her departure the Greek archbishop, Maximus Mazlum, who has been for some time at Marseilles, went on board to give his blessing to the crew, and to communicate the news of the naval victory. He concluded with a pathetic exhortation, recommending to them to render themselves worthy of their ancestors, and the cause they were going to defend.

The Bishop of Achaia, in an address, dated Calvaryta. July 2d, announces that the whole of the Peloponnesus is in possession of the Greeks, so that the colours of the cross float in nearly one thousand villages, which have been liberated from the yoke of the Turks. The intelligence of the defeat of the Ottoman fleet is confirmed in letters from Cephalonia of the 19th ult. and it is' added, that an insurrection had broken out in Cyprus, in which the patriots had a decided advantage. Accounts from Odessa state, that the divan was disposed to accept the mediation of Austria and England, and to give Russia, the satisfaction required; but it was doubted if the Grand Seignior could succeed in inducing the insubordinate Asiatic hordes to return to their territory without the expected spoil, or bring the inhabitants of the Porte to witness patiently the re-construction of the Christian churches which the ferocious infidels had dilapidated in their blind and infuriated zeal in support of the crescent.

July 16. Mams, Sheriffs, addressed.

ESSRS. Waithman and Wil

a notice to the headboroughs of hundreds, of Middlesex, enforcing attention to the statutes respecting jurors, as in numerous instances, persons duly entitled have been excluded from serving on special juries..

18. The committee of Lloyds, in concert with the society of ship-owners, addressed a circular to their agents, recommending that vessels be provided with rockets and blue lights.

- 21. From a rigid enquiry set on foot by Mr. Sheriff Waithman, three police offi

cers

cers, Breton, Jones, and Mason, were found guilty at the Middlesex sessions, of a conspiracy to extort money. Breton and Jones were sentenced to two years imprisonment in the House of Correction, aud Mason to six months.

24. A grand musical festival was given in the Abbey, to raise funds for the rebuilding of Westminster Hospital. 3000 spectators were present.

In the Court of King's Bench, on an information for libel, the following was quoted from the Republican of Oct. 20th, 1820-"There is not a vice which the King can put his hand upon his heart and say I am innocent of. He has inherited the gross obstinacy of his father, with the avarice and meanness of his mother, without any of their domestic qualities; and to these he has added all that vice can teach or conjecture." The defendant, Mr. Beve, admitted the grossness of the libel, but pleaded ignorant of the contents of that number, and brought evidence to his loyal character. Verdict-Guilty.

On the same day was an indictment for a libel, which, among other things, spoke of the Bible as "a book so full of wickedness and contradiction, that it could not be the word of God." The defendant, Mary Ann Carlile, had copied the article from an American paper, and alleged that she was a servant, at fixed wages, to her brother. "The common law," she said, "was common sense." Verdict-Guilty.

25. At the Old Bailey, the foreman of the London Jury, by direction from his co-jurors, requested permission to read an application for mercy to the convicts of the session, but was repeatedly interrupted by the Common Serjeant, who threatened to commit him. The paper stated that the jury were embarrassed in their verdicts by the sanguinary character of the criminal code.

26. A letter to the different Revenue Boards, from the Treasury Chambers, announced an act of grace for the release of certain prisoners confined for penalties.

14. The Gazette of this day contains an order for the Court going into mourning for the late Queen, on Wednesday the 15th. The Queen's funeral; for further of which see the Memoirs, and Public Affairs.

From the report of the Common Council committee, it appears that great abuses: have been practised in framing the special jury lists. The secondary has the power of placing or removing names, at his option. › Out of an immense number of qualified persons (resident householders worth one hundred pounds) only 485 are named, and of these 226 are not resident. Of the re-, maining 259, only 88 are merchants. Several jurymen have served thirty, forty, or fifty times each in a term-while 87 served but once and 28 but twice!

24. The Coroner's inquest on Francis, killed on the 14th, brought in a verdict of wILFUL MURDER against one of the Life Guards.

25. Public funeral of Francis and Honey, when the Sheriff of Middlesex, at the head of the posse comitatus, was assaulted by the Life Guards, at Knightsbridge.

Mr. T. Smith, a gentleman residing at No. 10. in Queen-street, Grosvenor square. He was poisoned by taking oxalic acid in mistake for salts.

At Woolwich, 69, John Bonnycastle, Esq. Professor of Mathematics in the Royal Academy. He was, from an early age, employed in educating youth, and for some time kept an academy at Hackney. After continuing some years at Hackney, he removed to Woolwich, aud was introduced as a mathematical master, in the Royal Military Academy there. Here, on the retirement of Dr. Hutton, he was appointed professor of mathematics to that institution, in which situation he died. The best account of this ingenious man, is to be found in a letter which he wrote to the Duke of Richmond, then Master-General of the Ordnance, on seeking an appointment in the Royal Military Academy: "To avoid, as much as possible, the disagreeable task of mentioning my own qualifications, I shall lay before your Grace such particulars of my life as will afford the most ready means of making known my pretension. Your Grace needs not to be informed that a mind of moderate powers, strongly determined to any particular pursuit, can easily over

come these obstacles, and be even benefited by the difficulties it has to encounter. I was born at Weedon, in the parish of Hardwick, near Aylesbury, in the county of Bucks. My father was a plain, honest, reputable farmer in that village, and designed me for the same occupation; so that the learning he gave me was only what was to be obtained from a school education, and such as would qualify me to manage that business with propriety. Disliking the business of a farmer, and from my attachment to mathematical studies, being but ill qualified to pursue it, my father consented at the age of eighteen, to let me go to London, and try whether I could find any encouragement as a teacher of these sciences. I accordingly went to town, and without a single friend, or acquaintance, to apply for assistance, so far succeeded in my design, as by means of attending on schools and private pupils, to procure a scanty but decent subsistence. Ever since that time, from the age of eighteen to thirty, which is twelve years, I have followed the same employment, and by means of continual application, and constant experience, I think I may venture to assert, without arrogance, that I am now pretty well acquainted with the whole compass of mathematical learning, and the best means of communicating it to others. The Rev. Dr. James, of Greenwich, and the Rev. Dr. Crawford of Chiswick, in whose schools I have attended twice a week, for these several years past, can give your Grace every necessary information respecting my behaviour and conduct in these situations; and the parents of the different pupils I have had at the same time, in London, would be disposed to give the same impartial testimony in my favour. For this half-year past, I have been in the family of the Earl of Pomfret, in order to complete his children in some branches of the mathematics, which a former tutor had instructed them in; but the term of my engagement being nearly finished, and as he means to direct their attention to other pursuits, I should be very happy to change my situation for one that would be likely to be more permanent. These, may it please your Grace, are the principal circumstances in my life worth mentioning. With respect to what more intimately concerns my abilities and qualifications, Dr. Hutton, who does me the favour to deliver this to your Grace, is the best able to judge. Mr. Wales, the mathematical master of Christ's Hospital, and Dr. Priestley, of Birmingham, have likewise known me for some years, and would be ready to give any information required. It will not be considered as improper if I likewise mention to your Grace, that I have engaged in writing an Introductory Course of Mathematical Science, and have already published
