> FRANKFORT, Oct. 17.—The Cabinet of Vicuna is about to discuss a question of the of Nations, the decision of which in- volves importantconseqtieiices. Thisques- tis ,I I li:i sif) fact been agitated by the mari- time powers on former occasions, and was r: vd in a manner conformable to the prin- of humanity, which will have the evils Mar alleviated as far as possible. trite qncstion at present is this" Shall lyj)axiiii that he nag. covers the merchan- V, be considered valid in the present war fween the Greeks and Turks V'—1This system was formerly adopted by most of the Powers and confirmed by special convex lions. During the American war it was so- lemnly laid down by France, Spain, and Holland, and was the basis of the Armed Neutrality, of which Catherine If. was at the head. All the Powers of the North, zimi even Austria and Prussia recognised; this principle; and at the same time Eng- laia4 alone supported the contrary system that is to say, that one of the belligerent Powers has the right to seize all property helongiiig to its enemy, no matter uudbr what tiag it may be embarked. England maintained this system during the wars of y,- the French Revolution-, but of late years; when it declared its licntrality iii the contest between Spain and its Colonies, it seenis to Itave allowed the opposite principle; this b hOIallse in the latter instance it was lIelÎ- and before a belligerent Power; so 0 that it has changed according- to the situa- C, tion in which it was placed. At present the Greeks positively refuse to acknowledge that the flag covers the car- go, and this is the principle cause of the disputes between the Captains of Austrian vessels and those of the Greeks which in- fest the Archipelagic These lflst have for some time seized upou all Austrain vessels which have Turkish property on board, and these ships are condemned by the board at Napoli di Romania. It is the interest of he Austrain G Ivermri fit ndfc to alldw the validity of a doctrine which it has re- probated for fifty years. It is understood that fresh instructions have been sent to the Commander of the Austrian naval force in the Levant, to enforce the observance of the system adopted hy the Court of Vienna and in case the Greeks refuse to comply, to adopt further measures against them. But it is likewise asserted, that orders have been giveiK for all A ustrian vessels to abstain fron conveying troops or warlike stores for the (Sreeeks, because tins would be equally contrary to neutrality. The effect of these orders in the Lrevaut remains to be seen.
ENTERING THE ARMY.
ENTERING THE ARMY. Mr. Clodsley, our new Ensign, has just ar- rived, Sir," said l'i etitenaiit Ciiaritoii, of the —=—regiment, "and will wait on you in half an is hour." Colonel Mountmorris signified his satis- { faction at, the intelligence, and made sundry in quiries relative to the personalle of the stranger ttfi.. -v.l. e«eort the yonng aspirant for military honour to the Colonel's quarters. He was a tall, unformed stripling, of eighteen, in all the awkwardness ot firsi 11 going alone;" he possessed the educa- tion of a gentleman, but not the ease of one—the diamond had been given to him, but he had never had it polished. The good-natured Lieutenant extended his arm as they reached the street, and he felt the hand treirtble which was passed through it. -1 You will find Colonel Mountmorris a perfect gentleman, Mr. Clodsley," said his companion, as they proceeded "and I am convinced tha: your entry into your profession will be rendered as little irksome as possible by his consideration and mildness—he is a widower-has experienced many misfortunes in his passage through life, and they havechastened.notsubdued his spirit." As he spoke, they reached the lodgings of Colonel Mountmorris, and in the next insiant Augustus Mountmorris, and in the next insiant Augustus Clodsley was in his presence. He was a line, well-knit vnan, of apparently five and fhrty years of age, climate-tinged and sallow, with deep but mild hlack eyes, and an ease of Il1:UUlpr which al- most inspired the confidence it bespoke. Colonel Mountmorris had considerately assembled some of the officers of his corps, in order that he might himsetf introduce the new comer; and according- ly a number of names were mentioned, and bows made, so rapidly, that the head of [hê stripling" was ill a. whirl, and he was more incapable than before of entering into conversation with any de- gree of self-possession. The questions of Coionol Mountmorris were simple and obvious and a feeling of comparative confidence was stealing over the young Ensign, when he was asked if he had ever been at Col- Ilt.ge it He replied in the negative. But are you entirely unacquainted with mili- tary matters?" asked his commanding officer; do vou not even know your facings?" Yes, Sir," replied Mr. Clodsley readily, I procured lily rt-,g inell ai.:i as I passed through towii-lijey are green." Green-horn, I should apprehend said tile Hon. Frederick Diisliaby, who had just purchased his company and was seated at table, with the Gazette in one hand and an Army List in the other. The Colonel bit his lip, and the juniors struggled to suppress a smile, a deep crimson suf- fused the countenance of the yuulh; he felt all the misery of having committed a faux-pas, al- though still ignorant of its nature and extent. "You will, I suppose, join our mess to-day, Sir," said a young man near him, good natured- Iy, anxious to dispel the confusion which Captain Dashaby had created. If I might be excused," stammered out the disconcerted Augustus, I should wish to com- mence my career in a manner which will please my father, and he desired me not to get into any mess, if there was any possibility of avoiding it." This was too much, even Colonel Mountmorris smiled, and Captain Dashaby sprang out of the room. The interview was speedily terminated, for the giddiest felt for the confusion their smiles excited; and Lieutenant Charlton returned to the Inn wilh his new brother officer. • s^iiip him for the mess-table. The convs .ii.ity ef the joyous party soon banished the 4 .sant sensa- tions of the morning, and Augustus proved himself as great a proficient in the necessary qua- lifications of a gentleman, as he was deficient in those of his profession; even Captain Dashaby looked on him morn complacently, and wheii they separated for the night, promised him on the mor- row a seat in his curricie to Mr. Charlton kindly escorted him to the dor r ei the barrack- room which was appropriated te.
