Late Ncics. By arrivals at N. York, we have receivod accounts Trom Liverpool and Havre to the latter part of September. Among tjie flying reports is one from St. Petersburg, that the' conferences at Ackermann had abruptly ter minated, and that the Emperor Nicholas was preparing for yar. To meet the Ottomans on tho banks of the Pruth, and at the same moment to encounter the Persians on the borders of the Caspian Sea, would ailbrd work enough we should imagine for the successor of Alexander, without his uniting with the Holy Alliance in their contemplated crusade a gainst free government in the south of Europe. We should be pleased to see the Russians thus employed, as well on account of the struggling Greeks, as the threatened Portuguese: but there is no reliance to be placed on the statements of the continental newspapers. Tho accounts from the theatre of war in the Morea, are decidedly .favorable to the cause of liberty: and what wc con sider as sure evidence of the ill success of the Euvutian Chief Ibrahim, is the circumstance that Ali Pacha, his father, has declined sending additional reinforcements of mercenaries, unless the Grand Seignior, his paramount Lord, shall first advance the necessary funds! This looks much like a wish to hack out, as the saving is: and if Lord Cochrane were to ap- if a satisfactory answer to the de mands be not received by the th October it is believed a Russian army will pass the Pruth, and oc cupy in arms 'Moldavia and Val-lachia. War in Europe, A letter of late date 'from Tans says "It is generally believod here that a war. must be'the result of the present state of things in Europe, and that the late revolution in Portugal will be the ostensible reason for it. England has declared that she will protect the new constitutional gov ernment of that country, and the rn-nefiiiifinnal Government of V ikuih.'" ; .. France has insisted, and has been promised that no steps shall be taken to import it into Spain, where it would have a chance of destroying the blessings of the ho ly inquisition. On the other side the Emperor of Russia goes on witli a slow, but steady march to wards the old favorite plan of get ting possession of a warmer ch Wc cony the following from the jTho only alternative, as the r, y.tt & " -,.v "The relations has failed, is to have recourse : VllCf - ' - between the Cabinet 01 jiisuuu aim those of Spain and Vienna appear every day to take a less amicable turn. Tho Court of Madrid has refused to receive the Portuguese Minister, the Count de Villa Real. He was informed that as a private individual he might remain at Ma drid, but that his . admission as Minister would depend upon ar rangements to be made with cer tain Cabinets, and which were not yet agreed on. .

Mr. Canning is here, and we have no news of interest, ex cept that the Spanish troops, ei ther from principle or want of pay, were deserting to their neighbors the Portuguese in squadrons and regiments in this manner cvin-j cing their determination, if. they cannot be permitted to enjoy the constitutional system at home, to seek its blessings in other lands, even though they may be accused of purchasing freedom at the ex pence of their allegiance to a ty rant,styled their "legitimate king!" 'With respect to trade, &c. the London papers represent that Great Britain was gradually tho' surely recovering from the effects of the late general commercial stagnation that the demand for goods was reviving, and the man ufacturers carrying on business more extensively: while the latest letters advise us, that tho princi pal articles of American produce were looking up in the European markets, and especially Cotton had advanced in price a trifle in Liverpool. Petersburg Lit. London, Sept. 26. From the accounts received this morning, it would appear tjiat war was inevi table between Russia and Turkey. The conferences at Akermann have taken an unfavorable turn. The Russian Commissioners, al most wearied with answers of the in good favor. The King is not liked, but his successor, the Dau phin, is rather popular, being con sidered a thorough honest man, Spain. Accounts from Spain inform us of great desertions from the Spanish army. According to the olhcial reports received from the Captains-General of the pro vinces of Estremadqra and Galli cia, the desertion 'which followed that of the two squadrons'of horse chasseurs, has deprived the Span ish army of 3400 men, of whom 2,000 entered Portugal by Alente- jo, ana 14UU by the province ot i ras-os-Montes. The former co lumn presented itself to the Gov ernor of Yelves, and the second to that of Chaves. A remarkable circumstance is, that the desertion appears to proceed "from a well combined system. Both columns announce that their aim was to in duce the Spanish Government through the medium of Portugal to return to a system of modera tion compatible with the rights and wants of the nation, and to accom plish it, they preferred coming to Portugal to marching straight upr on Madrid, but that if the Portu guese Government should think it A letter from the rrcncli Agpnt! to the Greek committee at Paris, dated at Napoli dc Romani, July 21st, states that vessels from Eng land and France, laden with 'mu nitions, had arrived in safety. It appears by an extract from Con stantinople, a.great fire broke out at that place oh the 31st of Aug. which continued on the 3d of Sept. when the last accounts were re ceived. Flakes of fire were then falling upon the Seraglio, the gates of which were opened to all the fugutives who had. favored the re formation. Several thousand hou- . ! 11 111 scs, it was ueueveu nau ianen a prey to the flames. It is added that the pcQplc opposed the mea sures taken to extinguish the lire, j observing that it was a punishment sent from heaven for the late de struction of the Janissaries. The tire had penetrated from the gar den gate to the mosques of the sul tans Amurath and Bajazet, thence along the walls of the Seraglio to the Sea of Marmora, taking in its routes many palaces of the great, containing immense riches. Tho troops at Alexandria,to em bark for the Morea, amounted to 8 or 9,000, but the Viceroy has in formed the Porte that he has not the funds to undertake another ex pedition; and such frightful stories are told by those who have return ed from Greece, that 4000 have deserted. Russia. -The Persians are said to have invaded the frontiers of Russia with a powerful army from Georgia, and Russian troops have marched for the Crimea. Forty live thousand men, are ready to cross the Pruth, and one hundred thousand are on their way to rein Ilayti.
