jYcvj'YorkOct. 10. From Kur .ie By the packet ship Birmingham, English papers have been received at New-York to the 8th September. The ministerial arrangements arc nearly completed The intelligence from Greece was encouraging, although not much in detail. Disturbances continued in Spain, throughout the kingdom ; the late endeavors to repress them having, in a great degree, failed of their object. A riot had lately taken place inDrogheda, Ireland, caused by the refusal of the country people to pay the toll-gate rate, on their return home with their cattle The loss of the owners, in cattle, by the beating of them, exceeded one hundred fold the amount of toll exacted The military were ordered out, and quelled th disturbance with difficulty. An English merchant named Whitworlh had been arrested charged with having excited the riot. The London Courier of the 6th, contains the detailed translation of the circumstances attending the funeral obsequies of M. Manuel, of which it remarks that the narrative is not without interest ; but, whatever interest belonged to it the ordinary course of things, increased ten fold by the circumstance of its having been deemed expedient by the French government to suppress it- 11 We find," continues the Courier, " from reading the Gazette de France that thi3 was done on account of the inflammatory speeches pronounced over the gi avc ; but in those speeches we discover nothing to justify the alarm which they seemed to have.causcd nothing which, in this country, would have caused a similar display of morbid sensibility on the part of the government." The Duke of Wellington held a levee at the Horse Guard?, on the 5th Sept. Brussels papers state that the Prince of Oravige was to go to the Camp at St. Omers, where a hotel had been hired for him. There were many conjectures afloat, as to this journey, and by some it vras supposed to bo connected with political objects. Others think that he goes merely as the representative of the King, bis father, who has been invited by the King of Fiance to be present at the icviews. The Duke of Hiconstadt, (the son of Napoleon) according to the Vienna papers, had been indisposed, and was daily attended by physicians. The London Courier has on this head, the following remarks, which appears to us rather curious : " There arc some very speculative politicians, who would consider the death of this individual as an additional guarantee for the tranquility of France. We, our. selves, arc not certainly of that number. The influence of the name of Napoleon no longer exists in that country ; and the lapse of fourteen years basso scattered, or destroyed the elements of which his power was composed, that, could he himself re-appear among his former followers, he would hardly divide public curiosity with the camel, leopard and the Osage Indians " Don Miguel, it is said in Frankfort papers, is to go, about the middle el Sep. tember, bv the way of Paris, to Portugal. The Courier thinks it not impossible that lie may take England in his route x the buriai of the Deputy Manuel, which caused so much excitement lately in Pari, after M. Lafitte had addressed the multitude, it apjxjars that General Lafayette, advancing Co the edge of the
grave, thus addressed the immense as- 1 scmblagc, in a voice soiemn and tecling. We translate the remarks o! the punted process verbal of the ceitmony, which we received by the last packet, and ut which by the by, the sale had been obatiuctedin , Paris. 41 You have just heard the touching and patiiutic accents of public gnet anu private ttiendship. Penetiated with the same sentiments, it is with the deepest emotion that 1 approach this tomb about !
to close on the eloquent de lender ot the national liberties. Aiounumt aie those monuments, so intimate;)' assy Slated in every heart, with great misfortunes, nobie recollections, sublime talent, and nlusiii ous victims. Here, on tins spot, siwep two humble friends and colleagues the brave and generous Fey, equally btilliaut in the political debate and the held ot bat tie the genuine model ot French honor and the trank and courageous Girardin. who in the Chamber of Deputies pointed out the violations ot the Royal shatter, as in 1792, he delendtd the constitutional laws, n hich the sovereignty of the French people had enacted. We saw ihese three lending one another in the discussions ot the Chamber, a mutual, a patriotic, adisinlci eited support, History will picserve the recollections of the life of Manuel. When even a boy in the wondeilul campaigns of the republican army of Italy, he linked himself inseparably with the surpassing glory ot the tri coloied flag. When later, in the crisis ol the llundied Days, in the Chamber ol the Rcprcscmatives he won rapidly, admiration, esteem, and the general confidence When at the tiibunc of the Chamber of Deputies he delivered those speeches now eng;a ven in the memory and heart ot every pa triot. 15 ni let me dwell foi a moment on that 4th ot Match, when the most flagrant injustice that ever consigned lo insignificance a deliberative assembly, was visaed on him. When we saw him soxfi'faii, so calm, so faithful to his trust alay not less honorable for the National Guard of Paris that foi lunate establishment ol '89, always devoted lo the cause of liberty, equality, and public order whose remarkable services, intenupted ;u thiee signal periods, are a sure guaranty of a future revival, and a perfect return to the principles of its primitive organization. You have been told, and every fiiend ol Manuel will confirm the declaration, that from the day of his retiiemcnt, to the last day of his existence, he desired, hoped, longed for, the liber ty of his country. " As for us, citizens, here, among the tombs of the faithful servants of the people, v c have only to strengthen more and
more our respect for, and devotion to, im- i pi esci ipvible rights to regard them as ; the objects of our most fervent and virtuous aspirations the most important of ; our interests, and the most sacred of our : duties" I RaltiiMrci Ocf.'12V-The following ar- ! tide from Trieste fves a hope that something may yet be done for Greece cn the sea board our expectations of any thing important occuring from the exertions of the Gteeks on land, have been disappointed in almost every instance, and since the recent accounts of the open warfare among some of the most influential chiefs, we have abandoned their cause as
nearly hopeless. Trieste -iug. 20 Letters from Conn

A courier extraordinary who arrived at Bayonne, on the evening of the 29th August, brought the news ol the change in the Spanish Ministry. The accounts horn Spain, in the French journals, continue to assume every day a more threatening aspect. The whole of Catalonia is in open insurrection, and the rebels, under a self styled Captain General, enter almost every town, and carry off the arms of those who refuse to join or to aid them. The government has at length assembled troops to contend agamst the difficulties and danger, which every hour assumed a more serious character. Meanwhile, the Colombian privtiteeis insult all the coasts of Spain, blockj ade almost every port, and seize almost every ship which attempts to make its escape. Portugal The last Lisbon dates are to the 1 8th August. The affairs uf Portugal remain much in the same unsettled state. A messenger from Rio, is leported lo be on his way to Vienna, bearing a despatch tiom the Emperor Don Ptdro to his broU.er D n .Miguel, appointing him Regent ol Portugal. It is not precisely known whether this appointment has taken place in consequence ol the Emperor's apprehension that his sister, whose dangerous illness had been communicated to him, would not recover, in which case he would merely be Regent under theCharterin the name of Donna Maria; or whether he is appointed Lieutenant of the realm ol Poitugal, as the repi esi ntative ol his brother . t,yfnct of ojfTdirs the Fast Brussels paper-, give letters from St. Peters burgh, respecting our lat intelligence, that great m .iviiy is observed in the donaitmcnts of U.c Minister of War and Foreign A flairs. A new declaration is spoken of, to be addiessed by the Russian Cabinet, to other irrcat powers of Eu rope, relative to the negotiations sol on foot at Constantinople, lor adjusting tne afTms ot Greece. It appears to be betind all doubt, that the Kmpeior Nicholas has manifested great discontent at the continual tergiversation of the Porte, and th i, conformably to the wishes ol the people and the C!eiL;v, he is firmlv resolved to put an end lo the effusion of biood in the Peloponnesus. It is affirmed, that the last despatches sent by Count Ncssclrodetothe Russian Ambassador at Vienna, are drawn up with spirit. The contents of the despatches ai e to be communicated to the Court of Austria, with an
invitation to send fresh insu uclions to Baron Ottenfels, the Imperial Inteinun cio at Constantinople, to employ all his influence to make the Porte coinpiehend that its present policy is calculated to bring on events, the result ot which cannot but be injurious lo the empire ot the Crescent Ti-f.,-,!

some uneasiness to the Porte, the tact of the Courts of Vienna and Berlin not having taken any part in them&id produced a favorable impression in the Divan ; and it continued to be understood that the Turkish government would resist to the last extremity. A private letter, dated Corfu, August 10, gives the following information, via Prevesa : " Redschid Pacha has entered the province of Acarnania. having two thousand or three thousand men with him. The Greeks retired to the vicinity ot Ozcros, four leagues beyond Missolonghi, where they deposited the whole harvest. It is a place fortified by nature, on all sides, by lugged locks, with only a single very narrow entrance that can be defended by a handful of men. General Rangus has the command of the troops The son of the brave Karaiskaki, eighteen ycrs of age, accompanied by some of his'father's Aides de Camp, is among the number. Old Zongos occupied the mountains of Cai peusir, wither all the Greek families had fled. The remainder of the Captains of Etolia and Acarnania remain in their respective positions. " Since the death of Mustapha Bey, who was a native of the island of Lubia, the Greeks hae very tranquilly occupied the whole of the eastern coast from Negropont to Mount Mauro-
vouni. beyond Valos These cant parts ' of Greece arc so little disturbed, that they
have paid a part of the contributions lately levied by the Greek government. A part of the Greek squadron guards the coasts of the island ot Eubia, declared to be in a state of blockade by a decree of the Greek government These vessels have conveyed from the islands of J"kiathos and Scopelos. Captain Liolios, the son, to the island of Eubea who hcad9

He intends to take a position upon Mount Delphi." The Dey of Tripoli, it is stated in tho Hague Journal of the 4th instant, has despatched a ship of war, of twenty guns, with a numerous crew, and provisions for four months, to cruise in the Straits of Gibraltar, and to capture, as it was supposed, off Lisbon, ships under the flag of Prussia and of the Hanscatic Cities.

Having b. ena patient of mine, as welL as a paiticular friend, I could not view without the deepest sensibility, his dcpIcP rablc condition, and had myself relinquished any hope of his surviving. In this desperate situation, he was advised to try the Liverwort, in the form of infusion or strong tea, to be used cold as a common drink In less than ten days I c demcd the most positive benefit and in about four or five weeks, every violent symptom had vanished. No cough, no expectoration, or discharge of blood or matter ; afino appetite, general health much improved, gaining flesh and strength rapidly, and such a change in his whole appearance as both astonished and delighted cw ry fnend he had It has not been more than eight weeks since he commenced the use of tho Liverwort, although ho might now dispense with it, yet he will continue it for weeks or even months longer.
