This morning an Express from Paris brought the Saturday's Journals, aad the Gazette ckFiance dated yesterday. The latter 'Annuls an" account from Bucharest relative to them aegociations, which. however, leaves the question of &ace or War still undecided. According to the article. the Allied Ambassadors had hid, conjointly, an inter. view with the Rata ErfiNDl on the Roth, the result of which is understood p have been unsatisfactory. The Ambassador?, at the conclusion, are said to have exe.laineed-.." You wish for tsar, and you shall hove "par." They gave in their [hansom non the same day, with an intimation that if their propositions Were not acceded to in three days from that time, they would take their departure from the Turkish ,capital. Already were they making preparations to depart. They are understood to have committed-the 'objects of their respective countries to the protection of the Netherlands and Spanish Ministers at the Court of Constantinople. goose Tux GAZETTE Di IRANCC, DATED ICSDAY. BUCHAREST, Dee. 3. Our news from Constantinople has arrived to the 25th in the afternoon. The Ambassadors of the three mediating Powers had yesterday a c-nference with thy Reis Effendi, whrch attracted kr neral attenti , ,n, as wet for the novelty of the thing itself {for the Re's Effe.nd, had ordinarily conferences with isolated indisidands, bat never with several diplomatic persons at tlie same time), as on account of the importance of the circum. stance. The three Ministers, for whom Count Guille minor, spoke, used all their efforts to chew to the Reit. Effendi that it was the true interest of the Porte to comply with the propositions of the Powers, or eke to declare openly and seriously whether it would accept or reject the pacification. The Reis Effendi, on his part, appeared to avoid every thing which would decide thequestion definitively, and entered into a long dissertation upon the right of inter• ference in the affairs of Greece, and upon the demands of the Porte relative to the engagement at Navarin.— Ihe discussion became animated, and was Uolnuch pro longed as to weary the patience of the Ambassadors, so that one of these Gentlemen exclaimed, " TUn wish for war, you shall have war"( Vows woks la gocrre, WNW owes la guerre). The conference terminated without they precise result. The French Ambassador, however, retained the hope - that the Porte would ultimately yield to the wishes of the Powers. The Rus.ian and English Ambassadors, however, entertained a different opinion. Nevertheless, the Porte, at eleven at night it of the 24-h, sent for the Dragomans of the three Powers to matte proposals to them. 0, the nature' of these ;proposals, or upon what .W ire founded, was urslfitiown at Constantinople at t e &par• tote ofth‘couritr. It was equally unknown if these proposals were in Consequence of the conference of the day, or of the' joint Note which the Ambassadors, on their return hop the Palace of the Porte, had signed at the house of Mr. Canning. By this note, which is dated the 24th. at six r. u the .Porte was again invited—first, to acknowledge a genet al armistice in Greece; secondly, to make some mutual concessions with the Greeks, is accordance with the Treaty of the 6th of Al y.—A period of three days was fixed on for the determination of these two points. If after that time no answer was given to the Ambassadors, or if they should receive only an evasive one, their in tention was to quit the capita. M. de Ribeaupierre has made every preparation. He has requested the Consul of the Netherlands to protect the Russian subjects during his absence. A Circular , has, in consequence, been sent to all the Consuls. Mr. S. Canning has also recommended his countrymen to the; Minister of the Netherlands, and M. Guilleminot has recommended his to the Plenipotentiary of Spain. A courier set out at the same time for Smyrna with dispatches for Messrs Rigny and Heyden.—>fagabarg Gazette. A Flanders Mail arrived this morning, with Frankfort Papers to the 18th, and Brunets Papers to the 234 inst. The following are the principal contents : CORFU, Nov. to. The Sultan has given orders that no provisioos shall be exported from Albania to the lonian Istands; at the same time, a military contribution of 160,000 piastres has been imposed upon Jaonina, and distriboted in the following manner: the Christians ate to pay 50,000, the Turks 60,000, and the Jews 49,000 piastres. SWITZERLAND. Doc. 11. TbeSwiss Commissioners appointed to negotiate with the French Ambassador a Coevention relative to the affairs of justice, Administration, and Police between the two countries, met at Berne on the 94th November. Their conferences are now terminated, and the proposed' Treaty wiU be communicated to the Cantons. Several innovations which were attempted in the Swiss guard of the Pope, bare caused sane ferments- 1 don in that body. This guard, which pun Abe same . . I onsform, a*d has the same arms as those used by its ancestoes three hundred years ago, considers itself as a Wad of sacred relic, which it is impious to touch.— Fresskfart Papers, Dec. 17. BRUSSELS. Dic. U. We learn that the voluminous legal inquiries which are carrying on against an Englishman, who is arrested at Brussels, and accused of numerous and extensive acts of swindling, by means of forged letters of credit and bills of exchange, are nearly concluded, but that posi• 'l tire information is still expected with regard to the expiration of the time for which It had b. suspended by order of the French Arnbassalkw at Con stantinople, begins with a declaration of if.. Editors, Messrs. Placque and Vigoureux, in which they say that they will make it their object to pustish:the troth, with. out distinction of parties or japsioav; that they are fully sensible of the diffictiltiits of the task which they have undertaken, and will -proceed with the greatest canticn in examining the events which pass before their eyes, in order to enlighten public opinion, and not to influence ir. Speaking of the' first proceedings of the Greeks at &iv, they say, 41 Letters from Scio of the 11th inform us that the chief occupation of the Greeks since their landing has consisted in plundering and laying waste the country ; they respected neither the persons nor the houses of the Consular Agents, to whom the flags of the Powers which they represent no longer afford protec tion against violence. The dwelling of the French agent, M. Fleurat, has been invaded and ransacked; the houses of the Austrian and Fnglisb agents, have been plundered from top to bottom, and one of the servants of the latter killed by his side: The Neapolitan agent, an old man, nearly 80 years of age, was treated st►ll worse; he was so severely beaten, that fears are entertained for his life. All the property of the Catho. Hrs. without exception, was given up to plunder. In the year 1822, when 90,000 Turks from the Asiatic coast invaded the unfortunate bland of Scio, the flags hoisted upon the houses of the Consular agents were sufficient to &fend them against every attack. These houses, which were respected by a crowd thirsting for revenge, afforded a safe asylum to a great number of Greek families. Nearly 2,000 Greeks, under the command of an European General, have given the example of a shameful contempt for these 11 cgs, which had saved many thousands of their coan trynsen, and even ventured to lay violent hands upon the agents of those very Powers which have united to getber for their protection and the establishment of their liberty. Two of _the Mastic villages in the south of the island, which ate entirely inhabited by Greeks, have joined their countrymen. VIENNA. Dscanuca His Royal Highness the reigning Duke of Brunswick arrived here yesterday evening with a small suite. He will probably make only a short stay. As the commu nication with Constantinople is now restored, we may now expect to rective authentic information relative to the events in that city. HAGUE, Dic. 19. The debates on the Budget for 1828, in the Second Chamber of the States General, are not yet concluded. —.Brands Papers, Dec. 22. We have received private letters from Madrid of the 9th ult. Strong reports were still curreot that a great change was about to take place in the Spanish Adnsi situation. The Count of. Sr. ROMAN 3 was spoken of as likely to succeed to the ogee of Minister of War, and it was generally imagined that the Count d'Esr.song -would have the Captain Generalship of Madrid. Great dissatisfaction existed among the corps of the Guard Royale of the Spanish capital, in consequence of the arrears of pay due to them. It is said, to such distress have they been reduced from not being paid, that for the most part they have been compelled to exist on po tatoes. A plot bad been discovered among the military at Seville, having for its object the overthrow of the Go vernment. The officers of the sth regiment, in garrison at Seville, were deeply implicated, and proceedings had commencedagainst them. It was stated a convention had been concluded between Spain and Portugal, bywhich all the Portuguese prison& in Spain were to re urn to their country, but would remain ander surveillance until the arrival of Dan Minuet. Those in depot at Zamora were forthwith to set out. According to these letters, the Government, notwithstanding the seasonable supply from Havannah, was in a state of the greatest distress for want of money, and it was thought contributions would be levied throughout the provinces to supply the exigencies of the moment. Our Private Letters from Lisbon state, that the con vocation of the Chambers is fixed for the 20th Dec. in accordance with an order transmitted by Prince Miouxi.. We have this morning received accounts from Ma ran ham to the 16th November, by which we learn that the Buenos Ayres privateers kept that place in a state , almost amounting to blockade, scarcely any vessel daring to leave the place. The Brazilian schooner Amazons had been cut out on the 21st October, while at anchor in Carmersion Harbour, by an armed boat from the Buenos Ayres schooner Flor de Mayo.. The Pro►iacio de Maranhoa, from Bahia to Moronism, a ith slaves and rum, had also been captured on the 10th of November, off Mat anham, by a Buenos Ayres privateer, which, after landing the crew, went in pursuit of another vessel. We regret to find by these accounts that the Portuguese ship Lucretia, from Angola, with STO slaves on board, was totally wrecked on Atias shoals on the 2d November, and the crew and thirty slaves only saved out of the multitude of these unhappy creatures on board. The reported resignation of Viscount GoDIRICH from his station at the head of his MAJIISTVB Councils has operated variously on various minds. It appears, for our part, that we must be cautious in publishing oar opinions relative to the credit due to this report, or isrdeed on any subject of political moment, since, a week ago, a leading Morning Cotemporary se dulously transcribed into his columns a few of our ob servations on.the chances of approaching E t twopen war, shass as evaiseady ssrestarted/6" stampiat draialosigin, and declaring them singalsrly Ministerial sentiments. We my we meet under such eiteumstances. certain persons who are very apt to 14 pea for inevitable events, and there are a • class who real ignorance imposes no ob. . flow of their luminous information. Some of these worthies, taking rumour for fact, ascl assuming the certainty not only of Lord GODIMICH.I tesignation,tut subsequent resumption of official daty, for a short and temporary period, are indulging th ew selves in most sagacious guesses relative to his LA T & ship's motives in his reputed secession from the Pre. miership ; among these that of his fear ofenco unter i et the investigation of hi s con d uct at t h e meeting of Pan liament is most predominant, and perhaps the only one worthy of notice. We have always entertained for his Lordship'. 'ma c as well as private character, whether in or out of office; the most unbounded and unaffected esteem ; let it not then be attributed to .he sordid motives of party feeling or party animosity, but rather to lb. effect of our honor respect for the Premier's public integrity, when we ex. press our indignation calumnies so base,—our con. tempt at ideas so drisellitig and puerile. Lord GODERICH . II character is re ired end domestic: he was indt.red to take the office he holds now meth mote by the solicitation of his friends, and by the wishes of England, than through his own ambition or indi vidual desire; nor did he even then accept it with any assurance of permanently retaining it, but rather the contrary. What is these particularly extraordinary in his wishing to resign it, perhaps sooner than was ea petted? To say that his Lord s hip i s r est f u l of render. ins an account of his political and o ffi c i a l conduct to the nation, is grossly to libel hi s private earittter: it is maliciously to disparage hi s long, Lithful, an d arduous public services—it is to insult the under standing of the people. If the nation is in a state of difficay and external tumult, we boldly say that such difficulty was unavoidable, consistently with the maintena ce of our national reputation, and acknowledged and obvious principles of tight and wrong. And even if (to combat our opponents nn their own ground) England Lad acted wrotgly in the Greciaa or Portuguese affair, is Lord GODERICH answerable lot that conduct? is he responsible for the deed. of a Misistry which he did mai She,, coat real? We hope not. Why then should the Premier fear to met the scrutiny of Parliamentary inspection, ork if they like it, of the nation at large. We trust he will meet it; we trust and we confidently hope he will - meet face to face with pis foes, it he has Owe, and triumphan.ly defeat the multi. dation* and malignity of disappointed navy. • . , . , . ~:,..‘ , time of Clarks At $lOO4 - 1114;figs.ist .: shwa' Feats with dispa to .11a4,114ver. - 4ern the Iligkt of this isdivided, .Ws kande • Asignating i die involsoll6 , , Hon.
