Without guaranteeing all the reports circulated of those conferences, we repeat, that the latest letters arrived from thence announce that they still continue. FROM TUB JOURNAL DES DEBATE OF FRIDAY. MADRID, &manly' 11. PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE. M. de Sousa, Comte de Villa Real, is to remain, it is said, two months at Madrid. He had, on the 9th, a long conference with M. Salmon, Minister of Foreign Affairs; immediately afterwards a Council was held, and sevet al Couriers sent to St. Ildefonso. The proposals made by M. Salmon have produced considerable effect on our Statesmen ; to which must be added the uneasiness oc casioned by the desertion of the 4th regiment of cavalry, and that of the garrison of Albuquirque, which has gone into Portugal, and by the desertion which continually takes place throughout the army, even from the Royal Guards. There is a report that three foreign legions are to be formed in Portugal, of which one is to be Spanish. The desertion of the garrison of Albuquirque is not official, but couriers arrive frequently from Rada jos, and the Government conceals everything which oc curs in that quarter from the knowledge of the public ; except that the Decree subjoined has been published, because the event to which it relates is known. " The Captain General of Badajos, in a Report which has been conveyed through me to his Majesty, announces, that on the 2d of September, 115 men of tbe garrison of Olivenza, with 111 horses, went to Portu gal, going towards Yelves, and having at their head Lieutenant Moncada and De Gand. This scandalous desertion deserves to be treated with a severity remark. able in the annals of discipline. Incorrigible men re quire new lessons: this seduction requires a memorable example of the active and vigilant Government of the King. In consequence his Majesty, in concert with his Ministers, orders :—Article 1. Lieutenants Moncada and De Gand, the Sub-officers and soldiers, who deserted from Olivenza, shall be hanged, whenever they are captured, agreeably to the '26th Article, title 10th, of the Milittry Ordinances. This includes those who ad vised this desertion, and the soldiers who, knowing it, did not denounce it.-2. The decrees of the 17th and 21st of August, against rebellion, shall be appli cable to all persons who, by correspondence, advice, or otherwise, assist or conceal the individuals included in the first Article.-8. The corporals and soldiers, men tioned in the same Article, who shall give themselves up within eight days, shall be exempted from the capi tal punishment.-4. The 4th Regiment of Cavalry is disbanded; the soldiers shill be distributed among the othei troops, as is convenient for his Majesty's service. —5. The officers and chiefs of the corps, at Olivenza, at the time of the desertion, ;ire suspended from their-em ployments, till what is prescribed in the Seventh Arti. cle shall be executed. The chiefs of staff at Oliveoza shall alio be suspended.-7. A Council of War shall be immediately formed, which. shall act sUmmarily„ and examine if the chiefs of the above regiments have watched over the preservation of order, and for the de fence of the place. The Council shall use the greatest activity in collecting information relative to the origin and progress of the event mentioned in Article 1.-8. The Council shall cause its judgments to be immediately executed, giving an account of its proceedings to his Majesty.-8. His Majesty will hold the Inspectors Ge neral of the Army responsible for the officers they re commend. They are to require the dismissal of such as do not merit their confidence; for the King requires that loyalty and honour shall be the chief qualities of the officers employed.—lo. Whenever an officer loses the confidence of his superiors, his Majesty is to be im mediately informed of it.—Finally, his Majesty observes that the suggestions of the revolutionary contagion have been carried into execution by two subalterns only ; he is pleased to think that his Royal Guards, and the army generally, will share his noble indignation against those who have forfeited their military honour ; that they will demonstrate on all occasions their honour and fidelity, and banish from their ranks all those who display any ingratitude for his Majesty's goodness, and shew them selves unworthy to belong to their country and the mi litary state. The King also hopes, that the guard and the army will rival each other in loyalty and zeal— that they will preserve the most exact discipline, and shew themselves worthy of the ancient Spanish loyalty. I communicate this by order of his Majesty, that you may publish it to the army in the place where you command. (Signed) 14 SANBRANO. " Madrid, September 9, ISSNI." FROM THE COURIER FRANCAIS. ON THE TREATY OF GULISTEN, BETWEEN PERSIA AND RUSSIA. PARIS, Simiassa 114 The invincible tendency to aggrandizement which pushes-the Russian empire towards the southern coun tries, menaces Persia nct less than Turkey ; and if these two Powers had better understood their interests, fot the last two ages so constantly and narrowly united, they should have sacrificed their respective prejudices, :ming ing out of schism, for the purpose of defending the cause of Islamism against a common enemy. Instead of this conduct, these tu o Powers, so full of pride, and so void of foresight, have made war on each other at all times that it was • convenient for any of the great Powers of the West to embroil them against each others While Peter I. profiting by the revolt of the Afghans, who deso lated Persia, invaded, under the most frivolous pretext, the frontier provinces of that empire, Turkey, so far from succouring her natural ally, thought only of extending her own limits at her expense, and thus allowed the Czar to possess himself tranquilly of the cast territories of Dog- Lestan, Schirvan, Guilin, Mazendaven, and Asterabat. There had been, indeed, some voices in the Divan in support of the party that advised the path of honour as well as policy. but these voices, conscientiously Mussul mans, were overpowered by the influence of the French Ambassador, M. de Bonnar. What interest, then, bad France herself in preventing Turjtey from joining Per. : sia, to oppose a barrier to the ambition of Russia ? Was she not the first dupe, in a manner, of viewing the! lEPTEMBER 25, 1826. future absolutely contrary to her interests ? The pro vinces of which we speak, even the cities of D!rbent and Bakou, remained then with Peter I. Restored in 1732 by the Empress Anne, to the fortunate Thomas Kouli-Khan, they Were retaken under Catherine, and ever since they have been a perpetual subject of conten tion between the two Powers, Persia being able, at her pleasure, to provoke an insurrection of the mount.in tribes of the Caucasus, and particularly of the warlike population of CarJistan and Leghistan, would, for. the same reason, have been able to eternize the quarrel, if she had known how to have retained Georgia in her interests. But Christian Georgia, in the midst of these Mussulman tribes, and constantly at war with the Turks, as well as with the Persians, adopted the decision, in despair of their cause, to give themselves up to Russia. Hera clius, King of this country, and of those countries that depended on it, such as Mingrelia and Abhkasee, made his act of Submission to the crown of the Czars in 1783. In spite of the protection of Russia, Teflis, the capital of Georgia, was taken and sacked by the Persians in 1795. At the same time, Paul I. being definitively declared direct Sovereign of Georgia, and having caused to be brought to S. Petersburgh the wrecks of the dethroned family, Russia had thenceforward, as it were, a tete du pont over the Persian provinces. The definitive incorpo ration of Georgia wi:h the empire was accomplit.hed under Alexander. The ukase of the 24th September, 1801, which consecrates this requisition, had its motives expressed in these terms: 4 1 We have consented to the union of Georgia with Russia. not for the sake of augmenting our own power, nor from interested views, but solely for the establishment of justice, and for the secu rity of persons and property." After the Treaty of Tilsit, which appeared to unite for a moment France, Russia, and Turkey, since the interests of this last had been specially stipulated for, Persia, yielding to the solicitations of the English Am• bassador, Mr. Morier, recommenced hostilities, but this was fruitless. • Napoleon was dreaming on his part, and unhappily much too late for the party whom he was to draw away from this power. He sent, in 1810, General Gardane to Feth Ali Khan. Already was an European military organization prepared at Teheran, while all these measures were interrupted by the events of 1812 Discouraged by the misfortunes of her new and power ful ally, Persia abandoned these provinces, which she believed she would not be able to defend without to- I reign assistance, and the Treaty of Gulisten was made. From this rapid sketch of the events which have im posed on Persia the treaty of Gulisten, it may be judged whether Russia has really cause of astonishment, en finding Persia disposed to break this treaty, as soon as she finds a favourable opportunity. But it may be asked, does such present itself at present ? To resolve this question, it would be necessary to know exactly what is the relations between Persia and England; what were the promises made, and what the obligations contracted by the latter power at Teheran. However things may turn out, one circumstance is certain, that Persia is too sensible of her military inferiority, ever to begin a combat, without well knowing on what re. sources she migh t calculate to support her through it. - To return to the treaty of Gulisten. It has made sacred the spoliation of territory against which Persia had contended for one hundred years; and it is at the same time a treaty of commerce, by which Russia ob tains the privilege of exchanging the produce of her icy regions —tar, hemp, and smoked fish— wretched commodities in deed—for the exquisite wines, volup tuous perfumes, coffee, various kinds of fruits, splendid assortments of silks, rich cottons, and the precious wool of Persia. And what doge Russia give to Persia for so many advantages now and hereafter? She gives nothing. What then does she promise to give? Oh ! Russia has always plenty of that—promises. She says that " in case of need, she will lend her aid and assist ance to that son of the Shach of Persia who shall be named heir to the Persian Empire, so that no Foreign Power may interfere with Persia, and that the Court of Persia may be fortified by the assistance of the Court of Russia." Any commentary on a clause, the invidious tendency of which can be bidden from nobody, would be quite superfluous. Such then is the treaty of Gulisten, which' the Persians are accused of baying violated. Neverthe less, as this Violation does not seem to have consisted in any thing else than the incursions of the tribes of Caucasus, the Court of Teheran may be able to give a satisfactory explanation, and thus exculpate itself from any participation in the acts of these brigands. If, however, this language of good faith, or vf weak ness, be not sufficient, it should be remembered,—and we are free to say so, for it is matter of history,—it should be remembered, that long ago, before the abso lute submission of the Tartars of the Crimea, when Russia wished to make war against the Turks, she had always some complaints to make of the brigandage (rapine) end incursion of the Tartars on her undefined boundaries. Should we be asked, how, considering the crisis,. as regards her own domestic affairs, in which Russia is placed, she can think of war, we shall only observe, that foreign warfare is frequently a very good means of avoiding civil war at home. FROM THZ DRAPIAII /BLANC. In considering the vastness of the capital drawn Irons England by loans, capital which is returned only from time to time by dividends, and partial repayments, to be employed again as the basis of new loans, we may conceive the embarrassments to which, under certain circumstances, its commerce might be exposed, in order to sustain its operations and fulfil its engagements.— More than two milliards, two hundred millions of francs (88,641,80714 have been sown by the English upon the surface of Europe and America, and the imagination_is astonished at the prodigious results, and the richness of the harvest which this country is destined to reap when all these loans shall have been repaid. When we calculate the difference between the price at which these loans were contracted, and that at which they ate repayable—when we add the interest which will have accrued before they be entirely liquidated; '. and, finally, the commercial advantages which its situa tinn of creJitor will assure to it, We thall have the result the boldest and most gigantic series of financial opera tions which were ever erected. There must be a total revulsion, and the most extraordinary events, of which, at the present moment, there is not the smalle►t [PRICE SEVENPENCE. lion, before this vast wealth can be swallowed up, rrir tected, and assured, as the British capitalists are by the policy of their Government. But on this subject the figures we present speak more th in all the commen taries of our political specula.ors. This country, which can open its purse to all the world, which reckons the greatest empires of .the present age among its credi tors, covers, as it were, tire whole globe with a vast mortgage, whose preservation requires a new and deci sive policy, adapted to the magnitude and novelty of these en ter prises." Such testimony to the resources and energy of Eng land, proceeding from one of the organs of the French Government, assume, a mew and important character, manifesting, as it does, an enure change of feeling in the minds of a large portion of the French people.--, What a contrast to the hAbitual and braggart dispa. ragement i , which, in their State Papers and Pamphlets, they were, up to a very recent period, in the habit of pouring on every thing that was English I GERMAN PAPERS. ODESSA, Sarrausia 5. The patience of the Emperor with respect to the Porte, is put to as severe a trial as that of his aooost predecessor. Up to the slay before yesterday the Turkish Commissioners had not given a satisfactory answer to any of the questions in agitation. The Russian COM mis.ionedbave thereupon declared, according to their instructions, that unless all the questions are satisfac torily answered by the 7th of October, the Russian army will pass the Pruth. The Turkish Commissioners immediately sent a Courier to Constantinople, with this declaration. CONSTANTINOPLE, Ave. ssi The training of the new troops proceeds rapidly. The system of terror which was introduced with the reforms, is considerably moderated. Letters from Smyrna now announce that Lord Cochrane has really arrived in the Archipelago. The English Factory at Smyrna is stated to have formally requested Commo. dare Hamilton to protect the English trade if Cochrane should attempt any thing against it. But the arrival of Lord Cochrane seems to be a fable reported abroad by the Greeks. The plague rages here more than ever. Se►eral French and Jewish merchants are among the latest victims. Every body longs for a diminution of the dreadful heat, which seems to inct ease the contagion. This scourge contributes not a little to the general stag nation of trade. --,...-- PARIS IN 1826. PARIS, &mamma 17. Notwithstanding numbers of the iniobitants are now - recreating themselves in the country, Pads, always magnificent and ever gay, appears to have no cessation in its pleasures. Thelitheatres are nightly open, and overflow with visitors; the promenades are crowded with company ; the caffis and restaurateurs exhibit the same animated scene we have ever witnessed ; the races in the Champ de Mars are more than ever attendeJ, and the various exhibitions do not appear to have lost any of their attractions. The mountebanks, quack doctors, grimaciers, and other amusing personages, contribute no small part to the constant flow of fun. Vive la baga telle! is still the Frenchman's motto. The French are certainly a happy people ; happy in contentment. The poorer classes would gladly take coffee for breakfast, but, if they cannot afford it, they are equally content with an apple and a crust of bread. This perfect resignation to existing circumstances is the characteristic of the French, and constitutes, in no small degree, their happiness. Paris is greatly improved within the last two years ; the spirit of speculation has been on the alert, and al though it may bate failed in some instances, yet in mad, it has added to the comfort of the inhabitants and to the beauty of the city. We allude particularly to the galleries or passages which they have pierced through various quarters of the city, for the convenience of foot passengers. The original construction of the houses and streets of Paris, the one high, and the other narrow, prevents the possibility of any sudden improvement in the convenience of footpaths, although there is now a law for all buildings taken down to be rebuilt several feet hack. But the passages, which are now numerous, enable the pedestrians to walk almost from the Thud. leries to the Boulevards, and in othfr directions, with out soiling their shoes. They are admirably constructed for light, splendidly arranged with mirrors on each side. shops elegantly fitted up, and, being brilliantly lighted with gas in the evening, form the most agreeable pro menade in wet weather, both by day and night. Of the public buildings, now finishing, none exceeds the new Exchange. his built at the expense of the city. Elegant in design, beautiful in proportion, it is the most classic modern edifice I have seen. The interior is lighted from an arched skylight, and the roof, below the Light, is divided into compartments, each containing a subject emblematical of commerce, painted by Pujol and others, in imitation of basso relievo. Independently of their being designed in excellent taste, they are per fect deceptions in executipn. They are so finely relieved, that there are few persons but would mistake them for what they imitate—admirably executed sculpture. The magnificent chain bridge, opposite the Hotel des Invalides, which was nearly complete, has met with an unforeseen accident. Some waters having suddenly burst, have overwhelmed and rendered insecure one-of the columns on which the chains are supported. It is supposed that the whole must be taken down. . The Italian Opera h.s been removed to a splendid house nearer to the Boulevard Italian, and the prices of admission have been raised. Afesdarnes Pasta and Cinti are the favourites. Mademoiselle Cantarelli made her debut, but failed. The perfection of a French or chestra, like that of the Academy of Music, can hardly be exceeded, and is well worthy of imitation in our Theatres, particularly the Italian 0, era, the conductors of which would also do well to swathe chot us singers over to take a lesson from those in France. Another thing is worthy of their attention—keeping the band in the orchestra on their proper level, that they may not interfere with the sight of the audience in the pit. If they keep on raising thefr seats as they have done lately, they will soon occupy the Procenitens. Last season, Spas-
