Since the arrival of two Couriers from Paris, Marshal Brune. the French Ambassador, has had new conferences with the Reis Effendi, relative to the acknowledgment of the Emperor Napoleon. Hitherto the Porte has taken no determination upon the subje&. Other recent communications between the same Ministers have bees occasioned by letters from the lonian Islands, which have brought an account that a past of the Russian troops in garrison at Corfu had proceeded to Alba- nia, and were there well received by the inhabitants. The French Ambassador, having received this in telligence, immediately demanded from the Mi nister an explanation upon the subjett ; he assured the Reis Effendi, in an interview with him, " that dm entrance of Russian troops into Albania, should the Dews be confirmed, must have the most unfavour able coasequences, as it would annihilate the neu trality." The Ottoman Minister formally contra dißed this news, ant assured him, that the Porte would maintain iu system of neutrality, and would . take no step which could eke it. According to the latest news from Egypt, hostili. ties.continue betwe n the Aeronauts and the Mame lukes, and that country is still the prey of trouble and contusion. The Francs who inhabited Cairo '• have resolved to retire to Alexandria, where they propose to await the issue of this contest. In Syria, the rebel Pacha, Ishmael, who is invested in Acre -by the Pacha of Damas, and the Captain Pacha, has demanded a truce, in order to capitulate. The "brie has consequendy sent a man of ability to Ace, wish full powers to act. Meanwhile tranquil lity is not yet re-established at Aleppo. In the European Provinces, the Pacha of Romelia has fought, ad almo.t entirely destroyed, the Brigands, who infested that country.

The Preach Ambassador, Marshal Brune, has had several conferences with the Reis Effendi, and represented to him the consequences which the Porte might expire to result from delaying to acknow ledge the Emperor of the French. It is also known, that some ministers from other courts have endea- vowed to induce the Porte to make this acknow legement. but all these applications appear to be fruitless, as the Grand Signior has declared to the French Ambassador, that in consequence of the misting treaty between him and the Emperor of Russia, he eat bound first to make a communica tion on this 'obis& toll's Emperor Alexander.

As the ad vantages of this treaty are insured to you by the distinguished protection of his blaieslithe Emperor of the French, I will cause the stipulations to be üb.erved in their full force by the army, in fasour of your commerce and the naviglition of the Weser. In consequence, Gentlemen, I give you with plea sure the a.suronce, that no kind of obstoiele shall be laid in the way by the army ; on the contrary, it will thew a !earliness to respect, sad to make others respect, yuur territory and inde pendence.

" The Supplement to the jurarnal Politigate of Ley den, which gives the above letter, adds, " We have at the same time been informed that His Excellency has already given orders that the navigation of the Weser shall not be in any respect impeded ; and likewise that the battery erected on the banks of the river, which might give uneasiness to commercial people, should be demolished." After his Imperial Majesty had stood sponsor for the infant son of the French Ambassador, Cham pagny, his Majesty presented to the Ambassador a large and elegantly-wrought golden muff-box, with the pieure of his Majesty, ornamented with a triple row of large brilliants ; to his Lady, a rich diadem of valuable pearls and brilliants; and to the child, a valuable watch, set with the most beautiful dia monds.

NOVIV4SF.It The two I lamburgh Mails, due on Wednesday, arrived at a late hour yesterday, with letters and papers to the 10th instant. They bring the im portant intelligence of the departure of General Banns, the French Amba,sador, front Constanti nople, under circumstances of the most hostile com plexion. It appears, that so far back as the 20th of September the most pressing intreaties were used by the French Government to prevail upon the Nava to acknowledge the new title assumed by BONA WI, and that the FRINCH AmBASSADOR, finding them all ineffeilual, became desperate, demanded his passports, and left Constantinople on the 12th of Oflober. Thu.:, after two years of plots and Paaenst, nee. 21 I menaces, this consummate intriguer, General Bees s, El. A p Aar s's favourite Ambassa.lur to the Ottoman Porte, has abandoned his mission, with out having been able to extort from that weak and disorganised power, even the acknowledgment of the mock title of the mock Emperor of the French, in the puny person of Bort AAAAA E.— This result must he the more mortifying to the vanity of the Corsican, as in the full confidence of the success of his intrigues, he had the audacity to publish, two mrnths ago, in his official paper, the Moxiterr, not wily the acknowledgment by the Poate of his new title. but also the speech of the Reis Et t trios upon the occasion, in the genuine style of a French modern Senator, Bishop, or other revo lutionary slave addressing his master. The stupidity. and ahjeB flattery of the Monitriir have long since divested it of all interest. After this manifest detea ion of this audacious forgery, we hope to see is tor ever consigned to contempt. Certainly not a particle of credit can ever attach to a single paragraph of its contents, that can, by possibility, serve a political purpose. Nor has this artful intriguer, BRUNL, failed singte-Bandel. We are assured, he was ably seconded by the Ambassadors of other Courts—no doubt, by those of Prussia and Spain ; who flattered themselves they might lessen the respomibility of the disgrace, by extending the shares. The GRAND SIG. Riot, however, was irm and inexorable, and declar- cammazds the German brigade, at Groningen. Almost all the troops will, by the Bth inst. have returned to the quarters they occupied before the forming of the camp. One part of the flying ar tillery has returned to the Hagae, and the other is gone to Delft. We are assured, that M. Schimmelpenninck will have the first place in the Batavian government, in which case M. Van Der Goes will be appointed his successor, as Ambassador at Paris. STOCKHOLM, OCT. .15.

These Ministers are thus, as it were, constituted Con spirator', and plea-d out of the law common ti civilised na tions. The express order of His Majesty the Emperor is, that M.
