The steam boat Wm. Tell arrived from Lafayette, on Monday niht, the 5d insb and departed on the 4th, bound for Cincinnati. A Great Mart has Z-atj. GOVERNOR CLINTON died on the evening of tne lltn February. The N York Commercial says : " He had discharged his official du ies du ring the day, and written several letters in the course of the afternoon. About 7 o'cio k in the evening, he was sitting in his study, conversing with two of his sons, when his head suddenly fell backwards, and he died almost instantly. The interval between the attack and the arrival of Dr Hay, the physician, at which time life was extinct, was not mor than ten minutes. It is supposed he died from a sudden rupture of one of the large blood vessels. The news immediately spread throughout Albany, arid an intense and painful sensation was excited, while the inhabitants remained in suspense, as to the result of the calamity. An immense crown occupied the house and its precincts during the evening Means of resuscitation were ineffectually employed to a late hour. A deep gloom perva ded the city on the following morning. The senate and house of assembly adjourned, af ter making arrangements for the order ol the funeral, which was to take place at two o'clock, yesterday. The state of New York has thus lost its highest orn iment ; our country one of its no blest benefactors, and the cause of science and improvement a faithful and indefatigable patron " T ;e following toasts were drank at the dinner at Mr Clark's at the celebra'ion of Washington's birth d.y. 1 The day, arid its commemorations let not the one be profaned, nor the other con taminated by party differences, or personal resentments. 2.

Rcfiortcd destruction of the Greek Fleet. The intelligence by this at rival is important, though not decisive. Our readers may re collect, that on the 16th ultimo, we pub:ished a leitcr fiom the three admirals commanding the allied fleet, in which they lot bade the meditated descent upon Scio. In this letter was the following paragraph: 41 There remains no longer any pretext for them, (the piracies, kc. ol the Greek cor sairs.) The maitin:c armistice is, in fact, ohseivcd on the side of the Tut ks, since the fleet no longer exists. Take care of yours, ior we will destroy it alvo, if the case requires it, to put an end, to a system of maritime pil lagc, which wiii end in putting you out of the pioiection of the law oi nation-;."

nvit v 1 1 jjuiii j uvaiiuiui The Couiier, of December 24th, announces the receipt of despatches at the Foreign Ol lice Irom Mr. b. Canning, down to the 20th t Npv ember. It is added'4 they ol course give ample details of the progress ol the negotiations of the Divan. All we have to say -t present is that our ambassador had deman ded his passports, but that, up to the moment t sending off his messenger, noa Sffcr hati been given by the OUoman government, ci thcr as to whether they would be ielu3edor granted. Unless, however, Mr. S CaMiing should be prevented from leaving the Tur kish capital in a way which is hardly we think to be expected, there is eveiy reason to believe that his departure would not be any Ion gcr delayed " On the 28th Dec tin Cburi er states the following as the prominent facts under which the Tui kish question was at that moment to be consideied, viz : 1st. That the allied ambassadcrs had demanded their passports, which have been refused them. 2d 'I hat the embargo had been practically, though not formally replaced, inasmuch as no firmans were granted in l!ic usual way. 3d. That our ambassador at Constantinople had instructed sir il ellcsley to forward to him no moi e despatches by way of Vienna. The Couiier lias a column ol comments upon these facts, of a wailikc aspect The refusal of the passpoi ts," it says, 4 was peremptory Tnd unqualified The ambassadors thcrefoie, were placid in a situation at oncenovel and crnbairas&ing. All negotiations were at an end ; they had no longti any diplomatic functions todisrharge at Constantinople ; and they were bound by the instructions ol their respective governnxnts, to leave it whenaiTairs had reached that point. 'I hey accotdingly demanded their passports. The refusal of the Potlc could not changr the simple character of the 'proceedings they were directed to adopt. Wc must view them as insisting on their right to dr pat t Would the sultan detain th m by forci ? Inthatcae. war is at once dcclaicd.
