We have received the Paris Papers of Wednesday, and Turin Papers and Letters to the sth instant. The most important fact they contain is the de. parture of the Prince of CARIGNAN° from Novara, on the 29th ultimo. He is stated to have quitted that city in the same secret manner as he abandoned the capital ; and it is added that he burst into tears, and exclaimed, that he had been betrayed. Of his subsequent adventure, it is related that he repaired to Modena; but the new King refused to receive him, and that he had gone, in consequence, to the Court of his father-in-law, the Grand Mike of TUSCANY, in Florence. The Princess of CA RIGNANO was expected to join him there. The unfortunate affair which took place at Turin between the Carabineers and the regiment of Ales sandria, has been attended with no further result.— The Carabineers have been removed from the city by order of the War Minister, and perfect tranquil lity has since prevailed. The Pialtnonlese Gazette announces the arrival of a courier from Madrid, with the reply of the Spanish Government to the dispatches sent from Turin on the 13th of March, announcing the Proclamation of the Spanish Constitution in Piedmont. The Gazette states, that the intelligence was received with the strongest interest by the Spanish Government. A notification has been issued, by the Governoi: of Milan, for tecalling all subjects of Austria belonging to the Milanese territory, who had gone over to Pied mont. This order is chiefly understood to have been directed against the Students of Pavia, who had joined in great numbers the Students of Turin, whose attachment to constitutional principles has been so Count PAVIA Dl ScANoatuzzr, commanding the Savoy division of Cavalry, has published an Address to his brethren in arms at Novara. It is very mo derate; and the sentiments of modeiation which it discloses are said to be entertained by the majority of the inhabitants of Piedmont and Savoy. It dues not appear that there is any very particular enthu siasm for the Span;sh Constitution, except among a part of the Military and the Students ; but at the same time there is not the slightest disposition to re turn to the old system. The sort of counter-revolution which has been effected at Chamberry, has, it seems, caused no un• easiness in Piedmont, and is regarded as unimportant by the Junta of Turin. The corps at Novara, it is said, has made reconnoissances on the road to Turin; but that causes no alarm. It is believed that the sol diers will not fight against their brothers in arms. According to accounts from St. Gallon, there are some indications of an interruption to the tranquillity of Switzerland, as will be seen by the following extract: ST. GALLON, MARCH 30. The Gazette of this place has the following remark-! able article:—" A report, that the present crisis has been made use of for the purpose of dangerous plots against the repose and freedom of the country, has become so general and persevering, that it ac length becomes the duty of every well-disposed person to warn his countrymen against credulity. Shameless calumnies were never able to undermine the founda- Lion on which the twenty-two Cantons repose,. and it may be expected, from the fidelity of all the States, that public and rigorous justice will judge the pre- sumptuous folly of a few." At Vienna, it is a prevailing report, that the Rus sian Army which has received directions to march for Upper Italy, is intended to be employed against Spain. The two Emperors are still at Laybach ; and the duration of their stay there will, it is said, be subordinate to the results of the troubles in Italy. ench Five per Cents. Tuesday, 82f. 15c. A Mail from Holland arrived this forenoon, with Papers to the 11th instant. We extract from them the following curious article respecting the death of the late, and the accession of the present Emperor of China : BATAVIA, NOVEMBER 24. Accounts from Macao state, that official news has there been received from Canton, that the Emperor of China suddenly died, at Se-ho-cal, in Tartary, on the 2.5 th day of the 7th month (2d September), the very day after his arrival at that place, which gave reason to imagine that he had been poisoned. On the receipt of this intelligence, and orders given in consequence, all the Chinese have gotie into mourn ing for one hundred days. Atter some differences respecting his succession " I shall not attempt to mislead the nations of the Universe, but be upright and sincere. The Emperor, my father, has ldng loaded them with benefits : all have partaken of his favours; he everywhere spread knowledge and maintained tranquillity. When ig norance or folly called for the punishment of the law, the Emperor, my father, before he gave his orders, carefully weighed the traditions and the considera dons of the wise. "Whenever it was possible he let mercy avail before right. Therefore it behoves my people to honour his relations, to reverence the laws, and to fear punish -1 ment; by which they will contribute to accomplish my wish to follow the Emperor, my father, whose benevolent thoughts, like those of Heaven, had no other object than the general welfare and protection. " The Princes of the several classes, the Man darins, both civil and military, having repre sented to me that the celestial throne must not long remain vacant, but ought to be filled by a successor, and feeling myself thus repeatedly urged, I have, though plunged in grief, yielded to those representations, and in spite of myself, solemnly pro claimed my succession to the Empire, on the third day of the eighth month, in the Temple of my fore. fathers—the Temple of Heaven, of Earth, and of the guardian Genii of our Dynasty. The coming year shall be called the first year of Tued Honci.- I'he wise of ancient times had it for their object to support and continue the genuine dynasty. All their wishes tended to this. Let then all my relations and i allies, sages, mandarins, as well civil as military, and others, exert all their strength to assist me in pre- serving and maintaining this just inheritance, thus to propagate the doctrine from age to age. " The above is announced to the Universe, and let it be respected throughout it." A Hamburgh Mail has also arrived with Papers to the 6th instant. The following are extracts: STOCKHOLM, MARCH 97. The Government will this year adopt more effica cious measures against smuggling, on our coasts. Three divisions of armed vessels will go to sea, for this purpose, as soon as the season allows. A Cus tom-house Officer, furnished with proper instructions, will be on board each of these divisions: 50,000 rix dollars bunco are assigned for the expenses.

His father was exiled by the Turkish Government, and his grandfather cruelly put to death. He may therefore be stimulated in his enmity to the Porte by the double motives of vengeance and ambition. The Spanish Constitutiona'ists appear to be pro ceeding with .activity in the refOrm of the financial abuses under which their country has long laboured. A Report, of which the following is an abstract, from a Committee appointed to Inquire into the affairs of the Church, states, that from September, 1814, to October, 1820, there went out of Spain, for the sole advantage (in some shape or other) of the Holy See, the large sum of thirty millions of reals. It is now .proposed by the Committee to the Cortes, that the annual contribution to Rome shall be limited to the sum of 200,000 reals " towards the necessary expenses of the Catholic Church." . MADRID, MARCH 29. The Ecclesiastical Committee has reported on the proposition read by a Deputy in the former Cortes, and again called for by the Provincial Deputations of Murcia, La Mancha, Navarre, Biscay, Burgos, Toledo, Valencia, and Galicia. The object of this proposition is to put a stop to the exportation of specie from Spain to Rome, in exchange for Episcopal Bulls, matrimonial dispensations, and other indulgencies or apostolic acts of grace. After a declaration of attachment to the orthodox principles of the Catholic Church and of respect for the pre-eminent jurisdiction which belongs to the So vereign Pontiff, the Com - mime reserves to itself the power of hereafter taking views of the rights of Bi shops, in conformity with the sacred canons, the spirit of religion, and the ancient and pious usages of the Spanish Church. The present Report is confined to exactions and the consequent exportation of money, and the abuses occasioned by the Bulls for the inves titure of Curates; the prohibition of which is no way ! contrary to faith, the divine laws, or the dignity of religion. On the contrary, it appears to the Com mittee, that to give and receive money for similar Bulls is contrary to the canons and spirit of religion, and by no means consistent with the respect due to the Holy Apostolic See. The view taken by the Committee is supported by various sentences and declarations of different Popes, and by the opinions of the most celebrated Ecclesias tical Writers. The Report refers to complaints re specting sending money to Rome, made by several Kings, among whom were the pious St. Louis of France, and some of the Catholic Kings of Spain.— An order was issued by Philip V. in 1709, prohibiting the remitting of money to Rome under any pretext. The abuse, notwithstanding, continued. It appears from the accounts furnished by the Se cretary of State, that, from the month of September, 1518, to the sth of August, 1820, the bulls of the Archbishops, Bishops, facultative briefs, dispensations for age, and others demanded through the agency of the King and the Royal Ecclesiastical patronage, amounted to 5,24.8,806 reals ; that from the month of September, 1814, to the 2d of October, 1820, there were sent to Rome, for matrimonial dispensations, briefs, and various indulgencies, 24,945,890 reals; to which must be added, 4,500,000 paid for the ex change and expenses, at the rate of three teals for each Roman crown. Besides this, Spain pays to Rome annual pensions, viz.—for the Church of St. Peter, at Rome, 344,669 reals ; for the Church of St. John de Lateran, 13,020 reals; and to the Pope's nuncio, in Spain, 100,000 reals. The Committee, therefore, proposes that the Cortes shall decree as follows: 1. That the sending of money to Rome in payment for bulls, dispensations, &c. &c. is prohibited. 2. That as it is consistent with the piety and gene rosity of the Spanish nation to contribute to the dig nity and splendour of the Apostolic See, there shal be given for the present, as an offering, 200,000 reals annually, towards the necessary expenses of the Church of Rome. 3. That the Government shall communicate this Decree to his Holiness, with that respect which is due to his authority, and in a manner calculated to main tain harmony between the two Powers. From an intimation given by the SPEAKER, in fix ing the second reading of a Bill litrought in by Dr.' LUSHINGTON, last night, it appears, that an adjourn ment, from Thursday next to the Monday fortnight following, is contemplated.

Letters from Vienna inform us, that his Majesty the Emperor of Russia will arrive here about the 13th of April, and after stopping only tsverity.four hours, proceed to St. Petersburgh, where he means to ar rive before Easter. Our Gazette contains the following account from Jassy, dated February 15 . 44 On the 30th of January, before the death of I'rince Suzzo was generally known, one Theodore Sludzier, accompanied by a certain Dimiter Made kouski, both of whom were formerly in the Russian service, left Bucharest with forty men : they seized on the Monastery of Tismann, and issued from thence a Proclamation to the people, promising them entire liberty. Though the Government neglected nothing to hinder these rebels from having any communica tion with the peasants, Sludzier was soon joined by 1500 men, with whom he took Czcrnitz, and the Mo nastery of Strehaja. " In the night of the 6th of March, one Alexander Ypsilanti entered Jassy with 20 men, issued a Pro clamation, and caused all the Turks there and in the neighbourhood to be massacred. " From Bucharest we learn, that Prince Callimachi is appointed Hospodar of Wallachia, in the room of Prince Suzzo; and that the Sultan has charged the Government, ad interim, to suppress the troubles, and sent for this purpose 1000 men against the Insurgents. Half of them are said to have deserted to the enemy, and the other half to have dispersed. Theodore Sludzier has already an Army of 5000 men, and is marching against Bucharest." We have given in another part an interesting ar ticle, extracted from a German Paper, respecting the present condition of the Turkish Empire. It appears, that while the war against Am PACHA has pro ceeded with faint prospects of a successful issue, the Servians have demanded some important privileges; the reluctant and inevitable grant of which, by the Porte, will, it is feared, be productive of fresh en croachments. The opposite extremities of the empire are also in a state of much danger and confusion. In Arabia theWechabites again raise their heads ; and although MAHOMET AL!, the Pacha of Egypt, can alone restrain these troublesome Insurgents, the Porte has had the singular indiscretion to incur the.resent ment of the Egyptian Governcr, by threatening him with a maritime expedition to strip him of his trea sures, the main spring of all his military resources, DEPARTURES.

The following ithportant intelligence has b e , ceived to-day at Lloyd's, in a letter from the Agent to Lloyd's at Genoa, dated the 2d instant: ce By a Letter from a Merchant, dated at Odessa, theft ult. (N. S.) he had suspended some °unm et _ cial operations in consequence of news hating e t . rived there that the Greeks had revolted against the Turks, in Walachia and Moldavia. 44 The same letter states, that it was reported there that the revolt was to be general throughout the Gt. toman Empire, and was expected to break out on Sunday, the 11th ult. to which effect all the Greek inhabitants of Odessa, without distinction, capable to bear arms, have enlisted thenbelves, and set out f); Moldavia, at the rate of from two to three hundred per day, excited by a spirit of patriotism to recov er , their liberty. It is reckoned that about 4,00 0 ) Greeks will go from the said City to join the Manny-. It adds, that even some Masters of ships, with their crews, have abandoned their vessels, to go t o tight. Several shopkeepers have sent off men at their own expense, and others sell off their good s at any price, in order to join their companions_. In short, that it is difficult to imagine the. great en thusiasm which animates the said people. It furth er observes, that it is hardly credible those G eeks would hazard to carry things to such an extent without some support or protection." Another letter of the same date gives the same news, and states that Russia has asked permission of the Sublime Porte to let a fleet of her's pass into die Mediterranean. NAVAL I.VTELLIGENCE.
