It is said that he brings the will of the late Empress Leopoldine, and that he will afteiwards go to Lisbon, to execute ;he orders of Don Pedro, respecting the partition of the treasure left by King John, and which is estimated at 54,000,000. The half of this inheritance is to go to the Queen Dowager, and the remainder will be divided equally among the children. It seems that what has been said in foreign Journals of the marriage of Don Pedro, with a Sardinian Prin. ten, is at least premature. • Metalliques sot ; Bank Shares 1042. • PARIS, Fu. I. The Archbishop of Paris is Appointed President, and the Baron Monnier Secretary, to the Commission of Ecclesiastical Schools, all the members of which met the day before yesterday in one of the halls of the Council' of State. It is arSursed that the Commissioni has required more extensive it,formation before it forq its ()pillion. The Nutemburg (7 . orrespondent announces that 'eta. from Russia speak of a change in the Ministry of that Empire, and particularly of the retreat of the Count de Nesselrode. FROM THE CONSTITUTIONNEL. PARIS, JAN. 31. To-day, on 'Change, a report has been confidently spread that a Ministi y, formed in opposition to the opi• nion that predominates in France, has just been called to power. This news immediately produced a fall: the hind, recovered, *A hen it was ascsrt , ilied that the re port was at least premature. What ai•pears positive that M. de Chabrol has endered his res gnation. It is also said that M. Laine has been proposed to the Coun cil as Minister of Public Instruction, and that the Je' snitical party of the Cabinet has keenly opposed they appointment. We are not surprised at the disinclinatit n of the party for M. Laine, but we cannot suppose that M. de Hersoopolis, with'his antecedents, would persist is sitting in the Cabinet. It is possible that he remains there as the retained defender of the old Ministry, and as protector of the Jesuits. NINZ O'CLOCK.--Et has been announced that M. de Villele, who required relaxation after his long labours, was going, for his own "repose and ours, to breathe his native air at Toulouse, but M. de Yillele is not gone. France•had not got rid of that equivocating Minister, and his sinistrous influence still agitates the country, which it has so cruelly tormented. The intrigues of the Jesuits have prevailed, and it h positively announced that yesterday the portferrille of the Marine was offered to M.de la Bourdonnaye. Private letters from Trieste state that the Comman ders of the Allied Squadrons in the Mediterranean had declared in a state of blockade all the ports of Greece that are held by the Turks, and that already several vessels of war were cruizing before Patras, Motion, Co rm. and Navasin, in order to give effect to this dada ration. If this news is confirmed, this is •a new step made towards open hostility with the Porte. GERMAN PAPERS. SMYRNA, Dee. IS. TI e Oriental Spectator contains the following letter from 134irout, is Syria, which, though of an old date, is very interestiag. It adds, that it i. from a respectable French merchant in that town, whose correspondent at Smyrna has communicated it to the editor of the .spectator: BAIROUT, am. 29. " I can give you no brilliant description rf our sits& tiori in this country, where the turn which politica' affairs have taken has given us the camp de grace. We had scarcely recovered from the effects of a dreadful famine and the plague, which compelled us to shut up our magazines alihnq the whole summer, when a new misfortune threatened our interests and even our lives. The exasperation of the Nussulmans, produced by the 'resolution of the three Powers, is still kept in check 'by the ancient esteem which they paid us, and by the re membrance of the , long friendship of which they were proud; but we elitist confess, that at this moment, only faint traces remain. and that we are now in a manner obliged to be constantly in arms, in order to obtain some of the advantages a hich - treaties grant us. The indefatigable exertions of M. Guys, our Consul, who is • highly esteemed here, will soon cease la be sufficient to ward off the blows which ate aimed at us from all sides . No remolstrances are attended to; our complaints on whatever subject are disregarded, and we ham lost the' moral inflier ce which was our sole protection here. It is evident that this hostile attitude which the Turks have assumed with respect to us arises from the distrust whi.h they feel towards every European, since they fancy that they see a general union of the Europeans against the Pore. Our situation is so prevr ous, that we shall . perhaps be all of us soon obliged to emigrate. " Tne Christian i» hab i tants, who fear the anger rf the Turks who may be every moment induced by events to the commission of excesses, hare fled with their mei chanclise, effects, and - money into the mountains ; so that if we a i.l) to transact any bowies, we must carry Qiv ney seven leagues distant into the mountains, in,ortler to purchase silks, or any other goods ; and it...is fre quently necessary to go armed. This emigration tends to general ruin, and will t cease till we are* Iserftictly . easy with respect to t h e n issue of the negoctatmans Constantinople. " TheChriitianssett:ed In:e are not the only persons *ho have fled into the mountains. Tne English Consul and his secretary, with some persons of their nation, and others under their protection, have also fied,lay which the alarm has not been a little increased. The French. notwithstanding the ill humour of the people, have, hilt esto held out, and we remain , in some degree , the last remnant of the European population. But as our in. , ulatel situation is rendered, still worse by the. entire' absence of ships of war, by the almost equally complete . want of merchantmen, of which we have seen,enly.two. for a very long time, and which, besides, did not escape the plunder of the Greek pirates, we are besides, espe-, entity in the eyes of the Turks, rather forsaken exiles. than Greeks, who have voluntarily settled among therm to form and to consolidate commercial relations between France and Syria. This situation begins to be very dangerous, and if some fortunate chance and 'bent effectual protection does not soon give us a little more weight in the el es of the nations, we shall probably find it prudent to withdraw. Besides, the most alarming reports are in circulation; the only object of them it The Cape of Good Hope Papers are to the middle of November. From the following extract from the Go vernment Gazette it appears that all fears from the irrup tion of the native savages irl the interior had subsided : By advises received at the Colonial Office from the 'rooter, it appears kids ash that the Fetcani bad re turned to the country from a hence they came, beyond the Orange River, as no further accounts had been re ceived of them from any of the tribes bordering on the Colony.

Mr. Stratlsrd Canning received dispatches from the Foreign Office, that were addressed to Con stantinople, and forwarded thence in due order, yester day morning. It is now said that Cunt de Gaillerainot does not accompany our Ambassador to Corfu, but re pairs directly to Toulon. On the . 15th inst. the French Consul at Smyrna called together the merchants of his nation, to inform them. that their Ambaisadori having left Constantinople to repair to Paris, did not nece.sitate his (the Consul's) de. parturc—that he should lemain in the exercise of his functions as heretofore, and hoped to be able to give efficient protection to the subjects and the trade of France. It appears that the British merchants are anxious to obtain a similar declaration from the agents of their Government, and that Mr'. %Perry, the Consul, was not authorized to give it f itr consequence of which, they unitedly drew up a memorial to be presented to Mr. Canning, which was *forwarded to that Gentle man at Vourla, yesterday eeoning Besides repre tenting the numerous advantages which they pretend are to be derived by them from the Consul's stay, they express a hope that vessels of war will be kit . (or at least make their appearance frequently) for their protection; that in case of war Smyrna will be consi dered as a neutral port (assured, as they say they are. that the neutrality would be respected on the part of the Turks); Oat the British Government will 'provide that the Greeks also be obliged to observe this neutrality, at far as telates to this part of the Ottoman dominions, and finally, that his Majesty's naval forces will carry into effect, without loss of time, Admiral Codrington's menacing declaration against the Greek I irates. I can certainly agree with these Genticinen, that they would derive temporary advantages from the stay of Mr. Werry, who is well acquainted with the country; and the character of the Turks (at lea;t as well as one Cal re acquainted with their mysterious compound of con• tradictory qualitiesrhaving occupied his present oCial sitoarion for a very long term of years; but I ant not quite confident whether the dignify of our cientry might not be compromised, by leaving het, Big on shore in Turkey, under existing circumstances; or he. ther, if the Tucks should not prove so pacific and ho. nourable as is expected, complaiots might not be raised hereagainacituGierernment for having exposed personal safety and property, by leaving them a semblance of pro tection and authority. I would remark . in consolation, that if the Grand Seignior be rash enough' to brave a war, the struggle will be a short, one, and at term:- nation the valuable commerce of Smyrna will return to its usual channels. All her Merchants lutist:be aware that dating the struggle ) whe her they go or stay, business will be at a dead stand; such as choose to stay, as no doubt several w ill, ought to dekso from their own conviction, and on their own.responsi bility, and ought not to complain if Mr. Canni ng sfloold not think proper to enter into their views. As to the vessels of war, it might happen, in case of the prosecution of hostilities, that we and our alliet•should be at times obliged to call every oneol them-from this bay ; but certainly there would never he long, intervals between their visits: it is essential to prevent the Turks from adding to the strength of the Sangiae'Castle, which they might do even during no very longabsence, :n such a manner as to cause great trouble and ifnnoy ance ;for the accumulating sandy deposit of theHet mus, the Metes, and other streams, have rendered the passage up the bay- to the sewn so exceedingly Barlow, that vessels are obliged to sail close by the castle, and the addition of a few batteries there, a jleur thighs present perilous obstacle=. 'the apprehensions of annoyance from _the Greeks seem to me unfounded, as I imagine -thee ntiapations will engage-them. They may be assured if speak still of the merchants of Smyrna and their memorial) that Admiral Codrington will take eneletie measures tot the sar i pression of piracy, though they ought to.leel that it is not consistent with B:itish laws and British humanity, to carry (as they.would propose in this case)'Uay point, however essential to her interests, by indiscriminate massacre and destruction ; nor ought they ever to have made the strange assertions they have done,"that our navel forcer have not merely winked at the acts of the pirates, but granted them fostering protection—in other words, that the gallant Offiters in his Majsty's service have been the blends and allies of thieves and marau ders. When I first heard this wild vagary started, I asked (as I thought, consistently enough) What per tentage our naval -Gentlemen were supposed to have on the proceeds of the piracies" Oh, no," ;lays the Smyrna merchant, o it is not that w e impugn hie a zno nrent the honour of a British Officer—no such thing ; we know they have acted ace° , ding to tkeirinstrtittions from GOvernment, and thcGovernment has encouraged .theofeartul extension of piracy, to have a prehastfor outer. ing intoleratiesandhostile measures."
