CL - - • °ERMAN PAPERS. FROM TYE Deming, Dec. 27.—1 n order the more speedily to obtain the object of establishing • peace in the East of Europe, there is an ides of ►coding an extraordinary Plenipotentiary to Con / etateinople, who, without appearing as an Ambas. • %odor *um the Emperor of Alexander, and without bring in the service of Ross* is fully acquainted Cabir with opinions and views of the , at of St. Petersburgh, and can act accordingly. It is known . that Baron Lebeveltern, Austrian Ambilmador at. ( St. Petersburgh, has been proposed for this purpose. It is thought that, in case this plan should be adopt ed. the Plenipotentiaries will appear at Constanti nople in the name of the Congress, fur the purpose of effecting en arrangement between the contend ing parties. '1 ne Ambassadors of Austria, Great Britain, France, and Prussia, would receive instructions to . support to the utmost the negociatioss of the Pie nitestentiery ; but should this last attempt to bring the Porte to principles of moderation and justice tail, Russia would probably no longer hesitate to snake use of the right, which the Congress at Ve rona did not deny it, of actively interfering in the I ; internal eliliirs of Turkey ; and it is said, that in [ / anticipation of this case, an alliance has already' been agreed -,uron between Russia, Great Britain, and another of the great European Powers. Mean time, and till the question of war or peace is finally decided, the military preparations on the part of t • Russia will continue, which will also be the first means of giving weight to the negotiations to * opened at Constantinople. Mastsanzes, Dec. 18.—Letters from Constan tinople, cif the middle of November are very dis couraging to our merchants, formally advising them t not to enter into any speculation. They do not ven ture to say any thing to political events ; but merely observe, that the Europeans had not been molested for the last fortnight. end behaved very prudently. A French commercial agent says...." Our Minister, Count Latour Maubourg, has obtained permission to return to France, and will soon set out by hum!. • It is said he is going only till the existing misunder standings are adjusted; but is not likely that he will feel inclined to return to his post. Since the troubles at the beginning of the month, • there is no direct intercourse between the Ambassa dors and the Porte. Even the English Charge de Affaires, Mr. Chipper, lives very retired. The new Austrian Minister hardly ever leaves his house, but several Eur7can Ministers frequently mist him. The Porte ass sent to hint and to Mr. Chap. per to inquirs whether they had any news fn. • Verona, and especially the latter, from Lord Ilitseer Eird ? The answer was In the negative, to w . on observation is said to have been added, that the deliberations of the Cowen could hardly have commenced, and therefain it was impossible to knew the result. This ill Oil was considered as apa p of the attention with which tbe Porte regards the Congress. The Janissaries, who possess the chief power, have behaved so far better the.' was es. irzlt is said there have been violent disputes . Seniglio ; no particulars of which are, how ever, known. All the rich merchants, even many Turks, are in great fear of new disorders. There are many new Ministers in the Divan, who are not likely to chew the smallest deference to the Great Powers, one of the chief articles of accusation against Helet Effendi having been, that he had .. i been too condescending to the meditating Powers with respect to Russia." These amounts mention that a Greek flotilla seemed prepared to enter the Dardanelles, in which, however, it would probably meet with great diffi culties. It does not hinder vessels coming from or going to the Dardanelles. The Turkish fleet is at Gallipoli, and the Greeks intend to take advantage ut its absence to attack Chiut and other islands where there are Turkish garrisons. The Greeks that landed in Cyprus have born obliged to re embark. The Yachts of Egypt, it is said, will occupy that island. BAYONNE PAPERS. BAYONNE, Dec. 29.—The discharge of the sol diers whose time of service is completed, anti who belong to the troops forming the Corps of Observa tion, is to take place the day after to-morrow. The number of those who quit the division of Count d'Autichamp is estimated at 3,000 men. This measure, added to the impossibility of undertaking a long . expedition this winter, confirms the accounts of peace. Four thousand conscripts are expected, to replace the soldiers to bu discharged. A formal order has been given to al; the Spanish emigrants at Bayonne and St. &Fit to retire into the interior, which frustrates the hopes they had connived of speedily returning to their country by tae aid of the French army. '1 be exchange of couriers between Madrid and Pais is still very fregalint. rz •• y - THE NATIONAI, REGISTER ~.~ - The Moen of the Staff of General d'Autichamp, and the persons in the military administration of the army, do not seem to have yet given up the hope of going to attack the Spaniards, notwithstanding the news from Paris. , The accounts from Madrid of the 22d say, that the accounts from Paris (of the 13th), bawd tl pacific nature, had greatly contributed to oohs t►e effervescence that had prevailed, though the fanatics had not renounced all hope, and continued teeniest, the credulous with the probability of a war; but the Government knows very well what it has to depend upon, and truly it dues nut desire S. war as the Club• biota do, for it would only increase its embarrass• mews, encourage anarchy and disorder, and most probably lead to the total ruin of the country.— The Ministers are now endeavouring secretly to un dermine this anarchical faction, which discredits them mid impedes their operations. San Miguel, in particelar, is strongly against the Zurriagiets (as they are called), who lead the Landaburian Club ; and there will be no reason to be surprised, if, at a calmer moment, some of the most violent re banished hum Madrid. His Majesty has every day taken his promenade in the Predo, with his family, like a private in dividual. People talkinuch of the expected arrival of the Queen of Portugal, and this news has produced a bad effect on people's minds. It is affirmed that the Coroes and the Council of State have already dig. cussed the affair in Secret Sitting, .but nothing has transpired ; however, that Princess still pereicts in coming to the King, her brother. It is said that • corps of ten or twelve thousand men, from the new levies in the depots, will be as ambled in La Mancha, and an equal army sent to Servos* es an army of reserve. Die. 31.—We have some accounts of the mo tions of the two prinks in the frontier pro vinces, by which .we see that the endeavours of O'Donnel to pen the Ebro have failed; he seeks only to weary Torrijos by long marches. On the 24th, the General of the Faith, whose soldiers are in a deplorable state, advanced to Selvitierra with 2,000 men, but the Pastor hastened from Guipuscoa with 800 men, and obliged him to fly in chancier without a battle; on the '26th, another column of the Faith, of 1000 men, had the same tate at &o gees*, flying at the sight of a party of 60 cavalry of Torrijos. Lastly, on the 27tk.tbe Constitutional Colonel Asura surprised 400 of the Faith, whose he completely reined, took possession of the maga sines and hospitals which O'Donnel had there, and made 40 prisoners. Thirty poor creatures, covered with rags, arrived on the 28th at St. Jean Pled de Pert, in consequence of this action, which took place at Valcatio• Desertion increases in the army of the Faith in Dianne. From the amount of impartial persons who left on the 22d, it appears, that the citizens saw dawiedly attached to the Constitutional system, and the seccessesof Mina has filled them with joy; notwithstanding the state of Arrogan, it is hoped that tranquillity will be restored there, especially when the promised reinforcements shall arrive. It seems certain that Lerida is alarmed by the bands ,of Mequinensa, where Bessieres seems to have dis. played more ability than Eroles ; fur though master vat that small place, which he has fortified as well as he was able, he has successfully contended for these three months with all the three of General Velum. The province of Tarragona, which began to enjoy a satisfactory state of tranquillity, has been again • attacked by a division from Mequinensa, which, proceeding along the left bank of the Ebro, has arrived at Mont-Blanch, which the Constitutional Commander, Mauro, has been forced to evacuate, returning to Vale. It would, therefore, be essential to deprive the factious of Maquinensa, which has bc.t...rme a second Urgel, a Junta of Government having been installed there. The same traveller highly praises the seal of the Constitutional troops, who beat their adversaries wherever they met them. Numerous couriers continue to pass through our city. The eveninr , before yesterday we saw Gen. Roach, an Englis hman in the service of Spain, pass through, coming, it said, express from London, he was followed by a Russian courier from Paris. In a letter from Madrid it is stated that the Spanish Government had received a note from that of France, but that the pretensions which it con tained had been rejected, and that an interview which the Minister San Miguel had on the 20th with M. Lagarde, the French Plenipotentiary. he plainly told them that Spain would never consent to let France interfere in its affairs; and that it cared little for preparations for menaces; and it would, be much better openly to deelare war, than to pursue the same line of conduct as hitherto. It is said that a clue has been discovered, that is likely to lead to some discovery respecting the mur • der uf the late Mrs. Donatty. Lor -::-~ 1.•••• • • FROM LetaT NIGHT'S OaIZETTS.

JANUARY IL We ha►e often thought that those honest, but misguiding men, vrlto advocate the cause of Annual 'Parliaments and Universal Suffrage, might be con vinced how incompatible such a system is with a state of civilisation by an experiment of a single year, but the recent Meeting of the County of Norfolk renders such as experiment unnecessary—it was a Meeting of " the Inhabitants" generally— not confined %.) the Freeholders or the inhabitant Householders, but open to afl, and its disorder and riotous, and disgraceful proceeding% may be consi dered typical of what all public meetings would be under " Universal Suffrage"—in which state the untangible warderer would have as much influence and voice, not having an interest to the amount of a single farthing as he, who by a settled residence and life of industry, bad gained a provision for a family; under such a state of things the idle vagrant would be very likely to concur in a vote for the equal dis tribution of all the property of the Kingdom, and such a vote would probably be repeated as often as the difference between idleness and industry, disso luteness and steadiness, economy and extravagance, had caused an accumulation on one hand, and a des titution on the other.—The Resolutions originally proposed were moderate, and. therefore, the more likely to meet attention from the Houses of Parlia ment—the petition moved as an amendment by Mr. Cobbett, and adopted, is founded in principles of swindling and villany, which, as it is not novel to
