From 6t Tate London paper.
Restoration of the Creek empire.
The rc-cstablishment of the Greek nation, i
wis always a fav-rite object cf the great '
Catharine. The arch-duke Constaatine was
educated expressly for the throne of Greece,
and if it had not been for our in'erfei-encein
1789, that prince would in all probability
be present sovereign of that nation- The
motives of policy, which influenced the
conduct of the British court, in that in-
stance, in favor of an ally, do-not apply to
the case of a present enemyBesides, ow-
ing chiefly perhaps, to the want of attenti-
on on our part, it is impossible that the
Turkish government can ever become vigo-
gorons enough to be proof against the ma-
chinations of France. Whilst so weak a
race sway the sceptre of Greece, there will
be a perpetual tsmptation t.i the ambition of
the usurper of France to extend his con-
quests in that quarter. A peace may give a
temporary repose to Europe, but it is not in
.the nature of military ambition to be quiet.
The tot'ering authority of the Pone must e-
¦very day hold out Stoftger invitations to ag-
gressions, and the increasing divisions and
disaffections of its subjects insure a ready
conquest; The establishment ol a Bcna-
pirt dynasty in Greece, would be fraught ,
with incalculable dangers to the-British in-
terests and commerce. We should be in- !
evitably excluded from the Black-Sea,, and
the number of Greek seamen, who would by
that event be placed at the disposal of
France- would enable the enemy, perhaps,
to exclude us from the Mediterranean.
.... the possession of European Turkey
would facilitate, nay, insure the subjection
jrpt, and multiply the enemy's means
of annoying our eastern territories. Whilst
trse Porte maintained its relations of amity,
or even a strict neutrality, with respect to
this country, it was generousit was mag-
nanimous to shield its power horn destrnc-.
tion, to respect its ind peudence, by al-
lowing it to remain neuter. But whene-
ver the Turkish government, from whate-
ver -cause- leagues with its oppressors a-
gainst its former protectors any considerati-
on for its debility would be misplaced, and
moderation towards such an enemy would
be a crime against ourselves. & -jnr posterity.
Sentimental politicians may, perhaps, re-
volt at the idea of extinguishing another of
the nations of Europe. J3ut when we re-
flect that the Mahometans do not exceed the
proportion of one in ten of the inhabitants
of European Turkey, any change that would
overthrow their unnatural power, will not
properly appear the extinction of a nation,
but of a faction. The Greeks would again
be replaced amongst the community of the
European nations. Does not every hono-
raWe feeling of the iieart every generous
sentiment of gratitude to the authors of eve
ry art and science, glow with ardour at the
probability ci a revolution that would re-erect
their posterity into a political community,
and give them an oportuniy of emulating
the biight examples.of their remote but emi-
nent ancestors :
There can be no doubt that the re-esta-
blishment of that distinj uished nation w uld
be highly gratifying to every liberal mind.
if it could be effected without gross injus-
tice to an existing power, or manifested
danger to the luture interests of Europe.
The hostile me.isuresof the Porte remove the
formei obstacle ; and an impartial c'liside-
ration of the conseqeences of such revoluti-
on, if effected by us and our allies, in the
present war, will shew that it would be sa-
lutary, not dangerous, to Europe. Either
Russia or France will ultimately swallow
up European Tiukey. We have already
stated the consequences of the establishment
of the French power in that country.
Should a Russian prince, on the contrary
be seated on the throne of Greece, an insu-
perable barrier would be erected against the
progress of the French to the East. Greece
v ould become a nava power in the course
of time, that might balance the naval pow-
er of Fiance and Spain in the Mediterrane-
an.
The jealousy arising from an opposition
of views, of power and interests, would pre-
vent them for ever from being thrown into
the same scale, and Greece would become
the neutral ally of this country, and an eter-
nal check to the ambition of France. Na-
ples too would m time, under the protec-
tion of Greece and Britain, realise a navy,
which she has hitherto been prevented from
doing by the jealous policy of France. The
division of the naval strength of the Medi-
terranean, between so many states that could
never have a common interest, nor ever,
except by a miracle, be brought to act to-
gether, would confirm the paramount supe
rionty of the British navy. Austria, too,
plight, by the recovery of Istria, Dalmatia
and Venice- be reconciled Io the change ;
or if these would not content her, some ad-
equate accession of territory might be ceded
to her on the side of. Hungary and Galltcia.
If such an anagerr.tnt should be carried in-
to effect, it would do more for the future
tranquility of Europe, than all the aggran-
dizement of Fiance has done for its inter-
ruption. It would give us a powerful and
j efficient ally, attached to us from gratitude,
and by the ties of common interest; and
: would lorever depiive the tyrant of France
1 of the iiope of one day subverting our em-
pire of the east by the possession of E^ypt
, and the eastern shores of the Mediterranean.

By" vir'ne of an order of his holiness the
Pope, some persons have l-.-en lately arrested
here, and BPnt to th« Bastile. /mong them
is the count CamiHe Boi^fen, the nephew of
the celebrated Cardinal Seirgia, and a knight

MUNICH, June 2.
The 'Germanic stales, wrio are allied to
France, are solely occupied at this moment
in supporting with all their energy the vast
de-igns of the emperor Napoleon. They
spare neither pains nor expence in procuring
for this monarch the means of sustaining
with honor the contest in which he is on-
gaged, and of restoring peace to suffering
humanity. To attain this object, all the
members of the Confederation of the Rhine
have resolved to double their contingents.
The king of Havana has ordered the assem-
bling of a fresh corps of the arhiy fA the en
virons of Bamberg, which is to form a jidfe
tion with the army of observation, com-
manded-by marshal Brune. The Saxon
troops which are part of the grand army, are
to be augmented to 20 O0O men. The king
of Wiirteinbiii'g has ordered three new regi-
ments to march towards Silesia. The grand
thikc of Baderi sends 15OOO men to Magde-
burg. The contingent of the duke of vVnr.
t em burg has alrea iy set off for Stettin, in
short, the other princes and states, lately
entered into the confederation, are eager to
furnish their respective contingents.
VIENNA, Jane S.
The Court Gazette of this day containj
the following article, under the head of
Turkey :
< The fleet of the Russian vtce-admirai Si*
riiavin continues to hold the canal ;of Con-
stantinople strongly blockaded. Several
attempts to retake Teredos have failed*! that,
island still continues in the hand! of the
Russians. The grand vizier is still at Adr.i-
anople.
"The Servian insurgents have taken the
fortress of Ni-ssa. and made themselves mas-
ters of the important island of Osfr-it, above
the mouth of the Timok, in the Danube, by
which they are in possession of the
est line of communication with Little VVal
lachia, in which there are 11OOO Russians.
The communication between Widdin and
Ozona is, on the otliei hand, cut off to the
Turks.
" The position of the army of general Mi-
chelson, which is from time to time reeeiv
ing various reinforcements, as well in Mol-
davia as in Wallachia, is essentially still the
same. The camp near Varkarest has indeed
been 'ehifnrcrd with some regiments and a
division of Russian cavalry, have surprised
the Turks who were in the vicinity ot Kra
jowa ; about seventy were cut to pieces.
The attack of the Russians on Kahres, a
frontier fortress of Great Armenia, has
failed.
" According to the latest letters from Tur-
key, the Grand Signier, as a proof or his es-
teem and friendship for the French ambas
sador, gen. Sebastian.!, has presented him
with the estate of "Yasipia, belonging to
prince Yesilanti."

PARIS, June 10.
Letter from the emperor to the Archbishops and
bishops of hranee.
After the memorable battle of Eylau,
which terminated the last campaign, the e-
nemy driven 40 leagues from the Vistula,
was no longer able to support Dantzic.
N-twitbstanding the rigor of the season,
we commenced the siege ; and forty days af-
ter the trenches were opened, this impor-
tant place has fallen into the power of our
arms. The efforts of the enemy to succor it
were deleated, and victory constantly fol-
lowed our banners.Immense magazines
ef provisions and of artillery, and the re-i
duction of one of the richest cities in the
w rid to our power, are the debut of the
campaign. We cannot but ascribe this suc-
cess, so rapid and so signal, to that especi-
al protection, of which Divine Providence
has given us so many proofs. It is our plea-
sure that, on the receipt of this, you as-
semble our people, and offer solemn
thanksgiving to the God of armies, pray-
ing that he will continue to favor our arms,,
and to watch over the happiness of our coun-
try ; that they may also pray, that the cabi-
net that persecutes our holy religion, as
much as it is the eternal enemy of our nati-
on, may no longer influence the cabinets
of the continent, to the end that a solid
and glorious peace, worthy of the great na-
tion, shall console humanity, and. enable us
to realize our intentions for the good of reli-
gion, and the prosperity of our people.
This letter is only to that end, and we pray
g. d to have you in his holy keeping.
