An evening paper denies the fact of Sir Frederick Adaitii having beeii at Napoli di Romania. The letter in which it was stated was wfitten by one of the first merchants in Zante, a man whose honour* and veracity cannot be im- peached. Ilis words are tiearly these-" I have just seen 3ir F. Adam, who has landed here from Napoli di Romania. He says ha has been there to settle some differences with the Greek Government ; but I suzspect the object of his mission to have becn something of a far wore imXportanit nature." Niie Greek boys have just arrived in Enigland to be educated. They ware intreduced on Thursday to the Greek Committee, who were.greatly gratified with their interesting appearance, an'd thta intelligence which they seemed to possess. Captai*1laquierc, on the same occa- sion, presenited to the Cominittee' tIhi Turkish flag which Marco Bozzaris seized a few momentS belore he was killel ; -with two cannon-baUs cut from the marble of the Parthenon, which the Greeks, in the course of their struggle, have been obliged to use for want of other ammunition. Extract translated from the Gazette of Amsterdanz of the 18th of October, 1824;-" Private letters from Constantinople of the 10th of September, continn tha destrtction of all the Turks who were landed at Samnos, and also of the greater part of their fleet; and they further state, that the remains of that expedition escaped by flight to Stanchos (Cos.) The Egyptian fleet, after having been roughly handled by the Greeks, sought refuge in Candla, having suffered greatly. The Greeks had taken a great number ot transperts laden with stores and provisions. The Persians have again seized Erzcrum; the Porte had knowledge of this two months ago, but carefully concealed it. The arrival of' an Bnglish courier from Bagdat, who left that place on the 16th of August, had made public that interesting news. The Pacha of Acre, and the chiefs of the neighbouring provinces, are in move- ment, and it is reported that they are about to march against thie Pacha of Egypt,with whom the Sultan it highly enraged, on aceount ofthe slowness of his expedition by sea, and discoveries which have been made iespecting him, and which throw great suspicions on his intentions. Thus in this campaign, both by 8ea nnA land, the stan. dard of the Cross has agaix triumphed." In April last, a letter was addressed in the narte of the Greek Committee to Ach ille Murat, son of the late King of Naples, resding at Charlestown, respecting the feeling wlich existed in the Union on behalf of the Greeks. In answer to this, Alurat has sent two comsnuwications directed to DIr. flume, in which he assures him that the feeling in favour of the Greeks was at its height, and was satered by all even in the mest distant parts of the Union. In Inrat's last letter, dated New York, August Il, he states that a steam-boat which served as a packet between New York and New Orleans, will immcdiately be armed as a corvette, and presentedto the Greeks, to whom the novelty of such a weapon (M. Murat ob- serves) cannot fail of rendering important services. The law autho. rizing British and Anmerican merchzants to transact their own aff'airs hadl passed the Hnusc of Representatives, and had, it is said in a postscript to the letter we mentioned, received the sanction of the Senate. It was also expected that a reduction in the dluties upon foreign merchandise would take place, and that a Government bank would be established in Bogota. Thesc measures will be submitted to the next Congress. Mess FOOTE.-Colonel Berkeley has sent the following for insertion in several papers: te Berkeley Castle, Oct. 19, 1824. " Sir,_Having seen the name of Mr. Maxse and mnyself intro- duced into the public prints under circiumstances that seem. to require sotne explanation, I have merely to state that my interview with Mir. Hayne was the result of the very peculiar situation in which 1 was placed, and that I had no option in the line of conduct that it be. caime me to pursue; .1. shall depline saying more at present--lirst, because I conceive that it,would'e.e ar improper discussion, while ail action at law is pending betweeni Miss Foote and Alr.

A very singular circumstance occurred Yester(lay evening. A return post-chaisc with two spirited horses belonging to Mr. Wright, ef Dover, being intiprudently left at t?c door of the Star Tap, Canterbury, the horses took fright and ran away at filll speed for Dover. The chaise-door was open, and the reins about tbie horses' heels, when thev passqd our infbrrmant, who was in a gig, at fulll gallop, fortunately without injury; this was also the case with all tIre Dover night coaches,nor Ks far as we-can learn,did they come in contact with any tliing, till &icy reached the turnpike at the en- trance of Dover, agilhst wrhich they struck' the carriage with great violerce. They, however, clared the gate, ard continucl their rouite tbrotigh the intricate streets of Dovcr, until they came to their stables opposite the Ship Inn, a distance of near 17 miles; WVe have not yet heard that any accident eccurrred during the wlhole of their flight, although thc evening.was dark_a circurnstance trulv sinlgular, considering thletraffc there is at all times on that road.-.
