in a most deplorable state, their revenue is derived from the farming out of national lands, but, owing to the state of the war, it appears that, of the two most material tracts, the one has for some time laid fallow, and the other has yielded but a precarious and diminished return to the public treasury. The fleet and army have therefore been supported by the voluntary contributions of wealthy individuals, principally in the Islands; and it appears that the triumph of the Greek cause can be retarded or injured solely by the want of funds to call forth the national forces, and to maintain them in the field against the enemy.

We are sorry to have to record, that the Emperors of Russia and Austria, assuming upon their superior force, have proceeded to the most palpable violation of all inter-national law and public justice, by dictating to Bavaria, to Wirtemberg, and to Switzerland, and to other independent states, several measures of a nature to check every reform of abuses and all improvements of public institutions; their system being that of establishing the most thorough despotism, by keeping mankind in a state of absolute ignorance and vassalage. The mere fact of powerful sovereigns prescribing even measures of police to thoroughly independent states at once abolishes every moral and intellectual bond of national existence, and reduces the whole European system to a mere exertion of lawless violence and brutal force. But a short period will enable us to expatiate more fully on this important topic.

In America the hopes of mankind assume a brighter aspect; Mexico is now treating with the mother country on the basis of thorough independence. The clandestine and unjustifiable assistance afforded to the royalists in Venezuela by the French, has enabled

Morales barely to disturb the public peace, and to retard the progress of civilization in that province; but so little apprehensive is the government of Columbia of his power, that they have sent a considerable part of their army to the assistance of the patriotic cause in Peru. -The Portuguese have at length been obliged to evacuate Bahia, and thus the whole of the Brazils are not only independent of Portugal, but really form the more powerful kingdom of the two, having inflicted severe losses on the Portuguese fleet upon its leaving Bahia. The son of the King of Portugal continues at the head of the Brazilian government as an independent sovereign; but the people of the Brazils are now firm in their demands of a settled constitution, and the triumph of republicanism appears to us to be fast approaching. We much doubt whether the Emperor of the Brazils will not be obliged, ere many months, to join his family in Lisbon. So constrained is he to yield to public opinion, that he has already been under the necessity of condemning all the practices and principles of his father's government of the Brazils, and to vituperate those persons with whom he himself formerly acted. Great Britain continues to with-hold her acknowledgment of the independence of the Spanish-American Republics; but His Majesty's government must obviously have powerful motives for a delay which has so materially injured the commerce of the country, and which is so little in unison with the feelings of the more intelligent of the people. The foreign relations of our government are so complex, that we ought not hastily to condemn measures because they are contrary to the wishes of the community, or because they appear discordant to enlarged principles of policy, or even to the principles of justice.
