LONDON. SATURDAY, DECEMBER 13. It appears that a Pamphlet has appeared in Paris, having for title The lleclamution of the Order of St. John of Jerusalem— A paragraph to this effect has found its •- way into thff Etoile, one of the French Newspapers. A short time since, pro- spectus's were put forth at the Foreign Stock Exchange in London, relating to a Jjoan for the Jerusalem KnigMs," but that humbug did not then take John would have nothing to do with it.- ;') lIe had not forgotten the Poyais hum- 6"1.1" We should not be surprised if the pamphlet we have alluded to, had been Pt up with a view to fee! ihe pulse again John Bull on the subject of a loan to "Icle Kiiightv. When schemes are afloat in London for getting possession of peo- ple's property, it is a very common prac- tice first to publish a pamphlet, and .then to send out pamphlets to the Newspapers with particular passages marked for in- sertion. \ye hPar ;;|at the same game-is now piaying "m Paris. The Press is tb'js made the instrument for cramming things of this sort down the people's tnroat. All the harm thnt we wish the latter is, that if they mcddic with such things, they may lose whatever money they embark in them. In our opinion, some of these things are more iniquitous than either the lottery or the Pall Mall gambling houses They are also more barefaced. We won- der the City Common Council do not take up the matter; it would be an excellent subject for a speech from the patriotic part of the civic body. Bayonne, Dec. 4.—The necessity of in timidating the turbulent and ill-disposed .at JVladtid, and deterrfug them from further excesses against the French troops of the Army of Occupation, by inspiring them with a salutary terror, has induced the Severe and prompt punishment of the authors or accomplices of the tumult of the 26th of last month. Seventeen of the persons concerned, not in the plot-fbr it was not one—but in the riot, have been shot. It is to be hoped that this military execution; will have the effect of prevent- ing similar occurrences in future. Ma. o drid is tranquil but gloomy. The troubles in Galicia become more serious, the bands multiplying in all quatlers, and Corunna is constantly on the aiert, iu apprehension of some blow being intended agaiast it, against which it cannot take all the pre- cautions that might be wished, because it cannot tell from what side an enemy may come. The situation of the French in that province and the Austrias, is very delicate; travellers are not safe, since they are stopped on the banks of the Bidassoa, and strong escorts will be henceforth necessary. The letters from Madrid of the 30th, speak of the organ- ization of the army; the King has ordered, in the first place, that all subalterns and privates who are married, as well a's those who enlisted voluntarily for the time, that the war should continue, shall he sent io their homes. Addresses in the spirit of the serviles, continue to arrive at Madrid. It is now said that the Empecinado has been restored to liberty but most peo- ple think he has never been taken, as it seems very unlikely that a Chief who has I shown himself so formidable, would be released if he was once taken. It is said "that the Redallrador is going to be sup- P ^8ed, an(] that only t he Gazette of Ma- flrid J Will be published. There is still Qine I th atl0n ab°ut the re-establishment nqulSItIOO, and abotu the final ie ^ip.ution respecting the Afrancesudos. etn IS 0P'mi°u f'iat thev shouhi consequenily the Decree oi )val *V 18 uot yel drawn up.

Seville, Nov. 12.People seem greatly alarmed at the proceedings of the French throughout Spain, but especially at Cadiz. I From the Royal Hospital, which is found- ed upon the same principle us the one at Madrid, they have turned out all the in- dividuals belonging to it, in such a man- ner that doctors and other people, em- ployed there all their livps, have been turned out, some of whom have been seen with tears in their eyes, exclaiming against their hard lot, at being left in their old age without the means of subsistence, by th os'e who cunu? into Spain only, as -thley to restore tranquillity. They were ordered out, without the French condescending .to give a for what they took possession of, which was every thing that was in fbe Hospital and at the sams tirne orders were given for (he unfortunate Spanish sick to be deposited elsewhere, and they were accordingly sent to the hospit.d of San Juan de Dios. The provisions they are constantly- im. porting are immense, aad ail rriar (dIe Capuchins excepted.) are to be turned out of their convents, which are to be made warehouses for the French provisions.-— They are adding- to the fûniu{:å.tions as much as possible, and a number of gun carriages are maldog for them at tiia Maestranza. They have had t heir engi-I neers inspecting the rocks called the Pu- ercas, at the entrance of the Bay, and they have given their repottas a morit ex- cellent situation for an additional ea-;>U or fort. What to tliif) ii't)i all this I do tut know, but their proceedings, added to the ignominious manner in which they turned out General Danuo, the Spanish Governor, or Captain General, in the midst of Gendarmes, and in the dead of the night, as well as their unusua! con- descension to the inhabitants of Cadiz brings to my mind Bonaparte's transact tion with this unfortunate country in the year 1808; and I hope theland of liberty which we may boast of, will not have once more to be invol v e, di ii a war to protect the rights of this unprospe'rous nation. Letters from Bayonne give the follow- ing account of the affray in Madrid which has already been noticed in the' French papers :—" On the 26th, one French and two Spanish soldiers quuirolled in a solitary part of the city the French- man was roughly handled; the guard coming up on hearing his cries, took all three to the guard-house where n sergeant commanded. Soon after a detachmeut of Spanish Lancers came to demand the re- lease of the two pli:OIHH's,uue¡;in im- precations against the French in general; the peopie joined them, and the post was on the point of being forced, though the sergeant defended himself bravely, when it was reinforced by a detachment from the nearest post, which had been informed of what was passing by a soldier who made his way through the crowd with his bayonet. Gen. Bounnont being informed of this disorder, the consequences of which might have been fatal, ordered the drums to beat to arms, and the garrison assembled, which cleared the stree.ts.- There were two persons killed and se- veral wounded, Such was the result of this unfortunate affair. Order was soon restored; but to prevent the recurrence o similar scenes, General Bourmont has ordered all the Spanish troops to quit Madrid. I he letters from Madrid of the 27th say, that the number of persons wounded iu the above-mentioned affray was 24; three are dead. The officer who commanded the attack of this post is arrested, and will be brought to trial." Augsburgh Dec, 3.-Areording to let- ters from Trieste, a report prevails that the Greek Government hpve addressed to the Cabinets of Vienna, London, and St. Petersburg, an important note, hi which they demand of thosePowers to re- CI)I!¡7.C the political independence of Greece, which, it is supposed,1 will oblige the Porte to renounce all further at- tempts to have that nation under its power,

Lime Grove, Dec. 8, 1823. ,6 J.4C- =- T Not lotiz ago, a military hero accepted an in- vitation to pass a few days with a generous aud highly respectable geiiiletnao, at his house, not a hundred miles from Stockport. The San of Mars, finding out the comtort of tucking his trotters under ttje well luriiished mahogany," prolonged his visit far beyond the wish or conve uience of his friend. who repeatedly gave him va. rious indirect hints to commeoce a retreat. On finding, however, all efforts ineffectual to shakt" ;otT his goest, the worthy host was under the nc- cessity of leaving home, when one of the family, in the absence of the gallant Captain, placed upon bis toilet a scrap of paper with these words -10 Lone; Stays made here." This had the de- sired effect, the hero took the hint, and walked off to pay a short visit to another friend.
