OCT. 1. M. le Comte Barbe de Marbois, Peer of France, Ministt r and Secretary of State for the Department of J us tice, and Keeper of the Seals ; M. le Comte Corvetto, Counsellor of .State, Minister and Secretary of State for the Department of Finances ; M. de Barante, Counsellor of State, holds ad interim the Port Folio of the Interior, until the arrival of M. le Comte de Varblanc. Besides these, the Duke of Feltre is nominated Minister at War, DUROUCHAGE to the Marine, and CAzvs to the Police. The appointment of the Duc de Richelieu at present appears unobjectionable. lie is grandson of the celebrated Marshal Duc de Richelieu, aged about 40 or 46 ; he was of the proper age at the breaking out of the Revolution, to profit by its severe lessons. Too young to be obnoxious then, he has not rendered himself so since by serving in the emigrant armies against France. Never theless, he has not passed his time in idleness or seclusion. He entered the service of Russia, and governed the newly acquired province of the Crimea. Add to which he has committed no follies, but, on the contrary, bears the character of a man of sense and conduct. • In consequence of these changes, which place in the scat of power men supposed well affected to general tran quillity, the Allies are said to have receded from several of their demands in the conditions of the Treaty of Peace. This Treaty, whether formally and finally, or only preli n►inarily, is said to have been signed at four o'clock on Tuesday last in Paris, on the part of the chief Allied Sovereigns. Several facts corroborate this assertion. The Austrian Government established at the City of Lyons is abolished, expressly in consequence of the Trea ty signed at Paris, and the blockade of Strasburgh has been discontinued. For the same reason, it is, no doubt, that the Prussian troops are quitting the Western De partments. The military measures are indeed every where relaxing on the part of the Allies as the new Royal Army acquires consistence. The disbanded soldiers are retiring to their homes in all pnrts of France, and the disaffected have occasioned some disturbances, particularly at Nantz. In consequence of returning confidence and the appearan ces of a general peace the French funds are recovering. The supreme police at Vienna has received the most formal order not to . permit any Frenchman, who has left his country in consequence of recent events, to settle in the Austrian States, without the special permission of the Emperor ; and the maiorlty of the Swiss Cantons will no longer afford an assylum to any Frenchmen, who are known to entertain political opinions inimical to the House of Bourbon. A considerable spirit of opposition to the levying of the now contributions prevail, and much irritation is ex cited on this subject by the seditious. Indeed alarming disturbances have taken place at Nantes and other places, and the march of the Prussian troops to Paris is attributed by some to the necessity of preventing a general rising of the inhabitants by the presence of an overwhelming force It is said that Dnke of Wellington will have the chie f command of the allied troops which are to remain in France , but it is said he will establish his head-quarters at Brussels: All the property belonging to the French people residing in the Havannah, has been seized upon by the Spaniards, without mercy or exception. They were ordered instantly to quit the place, and their property of course is left to the i , ,f‘ncrozity of the Spanish Government. EGISTEII. A usiria and Ptu , sia have sent circular letters for assembling the Diet .of the Germln Confederation at Frankfort for In November.—The King of the Netherlands has issued a cir cular, directing that all affairs of the Catholic worship 51satt be referred to a Committee of the Council of State, consisting of three or four members profe ' sing the Roman Catholic re ligion.—The French garrison at Longwy was disbanded, the moment it surrendered to the Prussians. The inauguration of •the King of the Netherlands took place on the 90th inshnt. The cerenionv, which was ex tremely magnificent, was announced to the inhabitants of Brussels by. tln discharge of I 1 cannon. Religious toleration appears to have been recognised as a fundamental principle by the Congress at Vienna. In add:- lion to what has recently transpired in the Netherlands, • we now observe that a Protestant Church is to be established at Venice with the concurrence of the Pope. A General Order was rend- to the Russian army before it broke up from the camp at Vertus, in whit h the Emperor expressed to " his brethren in firms his gratitude for the zeal and order which he observed in inspecting their ranks in the plains of Champagne;' and after thanking them for the maintenance of strict discipline, and for the regular conduct which they had observed in foreign countries, concluded as follows " May the benediction of the Eternal accompany yon in yore march Jo your home,. Ilk all powerful band, in preserving you from the evils which accompany war, indicate; to you the path which ought to re emiduct y. .n to the bosom of your tantilief• : he izratend fur hii infinite h,bnnty, by constantly follow iiez Isis lawv, and itncea4body rccollectine, that Divine Mercy has been to you pal ticularly favourable, because you have always placed all your hopes in God." The•Spanich frigate La Prueha, from Vera Cruz, touched at the llavannali on the 4th of July, with six millions of dol lars on hoard. The accounts from every part of the Continent agree upow . the certainty of a Tutkish war. The Porte has been some time making most extensive preparations. Smyrna said to have declared itself independent of the Porte. It is stated that Fouche addressed a letter to the mine, when he presented his resignation, in which he said. Your Majesty cannot doubt of my fidelity and attachment to your royal person. I flatter myself that I have given the most on equivocal proofs of it. I indulged the hope of contributing to the establishment of your Majesty's thione, by measures best calculated to establish peace and tranquility. It appears, however, that it is intended to have recourse to terror. I cannot, and will not. be the agent of such a system. 1 'be seech your Majesty to allow me to give you another proof of my attachment, by fiankly and siheet ely acknowled:;in , , that I fear the Nknarchy will not he fixed on a hats s oh. dent's , stable and solid to support the attacks to which it is wished to oppose it." Private accounts from Paris inform us, that in order to compel Fouche to resign, the Deputies of the eew Chamber were as , etnhled in parties as the. arrived, and at (hese meet ings the attack against the Ministry was prepared. This de termined Fouche to retire. Only eight days ago he proposed to make head against the storm, but not being able to rely on the President of the Cabinet, nor on other two of the Mi n'sters, Pasquier and Jancourt, he yielded at last to the advice of his friends. It was on the 14th, that the Princes and the association made their last effirt to overthrow the power of rouche. When they believed they h succeed& d i the Princes and the Princesses left Paris lwr Rambouillet, in order that they might be absent from the capital in the case of any fermentation taking place ; for there was half a day of treat uneasiness at the Thuilleries on Suuday, the 17th. The guards I were suddenly doubled. THE NATIONA T.
