THE NATIONAL REGISTER FR ENC II P. WERS. PARIS, JULY Q 9 —Yesterday, after dinner, his Mtesty transacted business with the Duke of Rich lieu. LEMTORN, Jur.y 9. —We learn from the coasts of Africa that the Algcrines and Tunisians arc arming to aid ;he Porte against the Greeks. VIENNA, JULY 7.—Great activity reigns in our cabinet ' • despatches arrive and couriers are expected daily. The principal secretaries arc overwhelmed with increased labours. Although rigorous secrecy is maintained. and nothing transpires, yet it is pre sumed, from the routes the different couriers take, and the number of estafettcs which arrive from, and depart for, the frontiers of Turkey, that all these movements arc connected with the affairs of the !forte. It appears certain that the representations trans mitted ►.y the Turkish Cabinet to the Court of St. Pa.tersburgh, respecting Baron de Strogonoft; are accompanied with a proposition to fix the bases of a new treaty, which shall consolidate the peace be tween Russia and the l'orte. According to ptivate advices, it was not the Porte that broke off com munication with the Baron de Strogonoff, but the latter, who refused all intercourse and withdrew to the country. The decision of the Emperor of Rus sia is expected with extreme impatience. JULie 18.—Great activity prevails in our diplo matic departments. A special commission composed of members from the Aulic Council of War, has been exclusively charged with all the business rela tive to the movements of the troops on the frontiers of Turkey. The Austrian Observer still maintains silence re• specting the affairs of Greece. This silence is the more unwelcome to the feelings of our politicians, as it is well known that it is only through the chan nel of this demi-official paper that they can hope to receive any certain information about the relations between the Porte and Russia. _ _ _ Our cordon on the frontiers of Turkey daily re ceives inforcements ; but the strictest neutrality continues to be observed. FRANKFORT, Jot, 23.—We learn that the Porte has solicited the mediation of France and Great Britain. It is also asserted that the Ottoman Mi nister has transmitted to the Court of Petcrsburgh many notes of complaint against the Baron de Stro gonoff. The Porte demands the recall of this am bassador, whom they accuse of first breaking off the correspondence. MADRID, Jour 20.—N0 idea can be formed of the anxiety of the national subscribers to the new loan of 300 millions of rag; the officers of the com mittee named to receive offers are scarcely able to meet them. The Minister of Finances having as sembled at his house the principal merchants of the city to consult and to come to an understanding with them, fifty-four assembled according to the in vitation, and all immediately subscribed considerable tsllo3B. The bank of San Carlos alone took 1,500 shares of 750 francs each, reserving the power of taking others immediately. The loss will be filled up in less than six weeks. These miracles of credit mark the new eta. AuGaautte, JULY 23.—1 t is affirmed by a prig vete letter from the Ottoman Porte has scot an agent, charged with a mission of the highest im portance, to the Scah of West Persia. On the other hand, it is also said that the Court of Pctersburgh has also entered upon negotiations with the Eastern Monarch. _ _ _ The intelligence that a corps of the Russian army has entered Moldavia is not yet confirmed. All the reports respecting the Russian forces have been sin gularly contradictory of each other during some days past; however, it cannot be long ere the de cision of the Cabinet of St. Petersburgh be known. Ilallowt, Jusx 18.—Our Chambers are pro rogued until winter. A deficiency in the revenue is talked of, as also a personal contribution; thus a tax upon industry will be adopted to cover this de ficiency. The debates have been very stormy in the Lower Chamber, and the majority of the deputies have strongly protested against any exception in future in regard to taxation. The Gazelleof Lausanne of July 20 contains the following article :—" A very recent letter from Trieste informs us of a declaration of war proclaim ed by the Russians against the Porte, and of the march of all the corps of the Russian army towards the frontiers. That declaration is founded on the multiplied outrages experienced by the Russian agents, the infraction of existinn , treaties between the two Powers, and the refusal of the Divan to satisfy the claims frequently made upon it. If this intelligence is confirmed, it will be productive of immense results." On Monday his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge and suite left town fur Dover, where they will embark fur Calais. His Royal Highness, will join the Princess Augusta at Brussels, when they will proceed on their way to Hanover. NAPOLEON BUONAPARTE. The following is an extract of a letter from a tradesman of respectability at St. lieletti, employed upon the funeral of Huonaparte. !t is dated. "St. Helena, May 40, 1821." " Yon will of course have heard of Iluonaparte's dissoln ion, but pet haps a few facts from an eye•Vl 'less respect ing that important event miry not be deemed tedious. 800. naparie hail been sick at intervals ever since I have been on the island, but never considered dangerously so by the faculty. until ahont two moths back, when he evidently began to decline, and of course every possible attention was pliid to him, but without effect; he died on the sth instant, Saturday evening, at bah-past five o'clock. After this he was dressed in full uniform, with cocked hat, boots and spurs, and laid out in state. "'flue same morning I received orders for the coffins for the Mimi - ions deceased, which were of course executed with all possible dispatch. Tiie shell wai made of (RIC_ inch mature: my, lined with tin and covered with lead oat side. The tin Wa, istlvrwarde covered with white satin; pillow :end mattress of the sante. T he outside coffin was made of Spanish mahogany, the top and sides tine solid curls; and I dovetailed it together and polished it with illy own 11411dd ill the highest possible manner that my poor abilities world allow of. There was no inscription whatever on the coffin. " On Wednesday morning I rode up to Longwood, and inclosed the body in the coffins, with silver•head screws. Inclosed with bini in the coffin were a silver urn content big his heart, and another containing his stomach, and all the coins that were issued daring his reign ; together with a knife and fork, a spoon, and one plate, all of silver. I saw his heart before it was soldered up in the urn, which was permitted to me as a great favour. "The pall at the fneertil was of purple velvet, on whirls was placed the cloak or mantle and sword, which 8110114. parte wore at the battle of Waterloo, and on the head of the coffin a cushion and crucifix.—The coffin was placed on a heat se drawn by four of his own carriage horses, and the procession (which the writer describes in nearly the same manner as stated in former accounts) moved towards the place of hutelment which was his own choice. "Soon alter he went to Longwood to reside, he corn. plaiued of the badness of the water, and at that time Ma dame Bertrand lived at Hutt's Gate, about one mile from Longwood, at the top of a very pretty fertile valley, known here by the name of Sampler Vale. Buonaparte frequently visited Madame Bertrand, and observed how very superior the water which he drank there was to that wiiii7ll lie got at Longwood ; soil, on being informed that it was procured from a spring down the vale, he express ed a wish to walk and see the well. lie went there with Madame Bertrand, and after examining the water, he noticed a willow tree gto‘sing about lea yards from the well. Viewing it in silence for a few seconds, he said, ' Should I die on this island, I would wish to be buried un der that tree; and I will drink no water but front this apt When he returned home lie furnished one of his servants, a Chinese, with two silver bottles, holdi:sg about a gallon each, and sent him Immediately to the spring fur water—and the same Chinese has had no other employ ment than fetching water for the last five years. " The land where the corpse of this extraordinary man is deposited, belongs to Mr. Torbet, a very respectable shopkeeper I/1 James Town, It is now called • Napoleon's Vale.' and is very mach frequented by the inhabitants. The grave was lined with stone, and covered with a plain slab of the same material. IRSL AND. --rws A meeting of gentlemen was held on the 27th inst. at the Royal Exchange, in pursuance of a requisition to the Lord Mayor, for the purpose of appointing a Committee OT Stewards to make the necessary arrangements for the intended dinner, which is to take place in celebration of his Majesty's coronation. At tutu o'clock the Lord Mayor took the chair. William I)igges Latouche, Esq. read the Lord Mayor's a Ivertisement, calling the present meeting; and moved, that a committee should be named, to make the neces sary arrangements for the approaching festival. Previous to the question having been put from the chair, Mr. O'Connell addressed the meeting, and strongly recommended an adjournment for a few days, for the sole purpose of a more aeneral and cordial unanimity.— Mr. fiConnell•concluded by moving, as an amendment, "That impressed with profinind gratitude to our august Sovereign, fur his most gracious recommendation to all his subjects to cultivate harmony and mutual good will, we do respectfully . and dutifully determine to carry such his Majesty's gracious intentions into effect, and to testify in tine best manner in our power the universal sentiment of allegiance and attachment to Isis Majesty's person and throne. That in order more effectually to carry such our determination into execut on, this meeting be adjourned till Monday, the 30th inst. in order to devise the mode of conducting, and to procure and appoint stewards, to con duct a public dinner, in honour of the auspicious evetit of his Majesty's coronation, in such a manner as may enable all classes, not only to combine in a present ex pres,ion of loyalty to our Sovereign, but to lay a solid foundation l'or future concord and harmony amongst all persuasions." Mr. Shiel, after some pointed allusions to the circum stances which took place on the very day after the first offer of conciliation, seconded Mr. O'Connell's amend ment. The Lord Mayor observed, that nothing ever gave him more or deeper regret than the circumstances wnich oc curred on the 12th of July. He begged to assure the meeting that he did all thu man could do to prevent what had occurred ; he felt it his duty to do so, and he only regretted that lie had failed in accomplishing that objeci. These remarks of his lordship were received with loud plaudits. The amendment was then pot front the chair. and carried una • ously. The meeting then adjourned. Wiliam Thompson, Esq. was unanimously elected Alderman of the Ward of Cheap on Thursday last, in the room of the late Alderman Huthw•ell.
