The sign■l for departure was soon after given. and this small troop craned the Bowling-green, entered the city by the gate of Montonlieu, and trtversed several quarters of it in silence. From the Place Bourbon a part of them proceeded to the Place Capitale. Being commanded to disperse, the i•trater part of them took refuge in a coffee-house, which the Authorities knew to be the focus of the inovemenos on the preceding days. The Prefect and the Mayor, who were at the 110rd-tie-Ville, prudently gave orders that the Cafe -nould be cleared. A commissary of police desired I , le young men to retire. They all obeyed, and as I..ey went out some cries of " Vire la Charte I" were heard. The groups were dispersed without bloodshed. Only two persons were arrested during the night, and have already been interrogated before the :lodge of Instruction. About eleven persons have Teen conveyed to the prisons of the Seneschal since the 23•11 of March. On Monday no disturbance took place. The most perfect tranquillity is con stantly maintained, and no duels have since taken place.

Several young men were arrested last morning in their own houses. The motive for these measures i• not known; they appear, however, to orginate in the sumo cause. It is announced that the School of Law wilt be opened again this day. If twenty estafettes dispatched by the commer -6al world from Vienna to A molting, and other places of Germany, did not confirm the news of a decisive rupture between Russia and the Ottoman Porte, the silence of the Austrian Observer would su ffi ce to cuti fi ris its truth. It is a long time since that semi-official paper would have contradicted so im portant a point, if it were only doubtful. A letter from Turin, of the 12th of April, coo. was what follows: " They speak here of a Note which the Cabinet of Vienna has addressed to that of Naples, and which excites uneasiness for the result. " The Note has been dispatched by General Fri moutitimself, the Austrian Minister of Naples, the Count Fiquelmont having been called to Vienna. It is conceived in very positive terms, and has for tta übiect either the change of the Neapolitan Mi nistry, or to propose the retreat of the Austrian •rmy, should the events of the war in the Levant render it necessary. " The Court of Vienna observes in this Note, that the Court of Naples has not followed the di rections which had been given to it at Laybach, and which, it was hoped, would have calmed the popular agitation. We are assured that the Note contains the declaration that the Court of Vienna, in wishing to assist the royal power, did not mean to support the abuse of power; and that if a change of system did not take place, it would be forced to recal its army. It is thought that, in come tllltl)Ce of this step. M. de Medici will be recalled tu the Ministry, and Messrs. de Canoes. aud Cir cello will be removed. " The Court of Turin, which has pursued a sys tem of reaction much more violent then that adopt. ed at Naples, feels all the danger that would result to it were the Austrian army to be withdrawn from Naples. " Orders have been given to concentrate troops at Genoa,. to which the Court will repair in the count, of the mouth." PARIS. APRIL 11. Yesterday the King resided at • Council of Ministers. Several journals announce the arrival of General Berton and Lieutenant Delon, at St. Sebastian. A report has been in circulation for two days past that a corps of observation, of 20,000 men, is about to be assembled on the aide of the Alps, under the command of General Coutord. We do rot vouch for the troth of this statement.— Coutiertiomsel.) The King of Englend will anise in Paris on the lath of Jane. It is said that Prince Oscar, son of the King of Saarlen, will shortly anise at Berlin, and make .use stay there. The object of this journey is not yet known. The School of Law was opened yesterday. Thanks to the precautions of the Royal Council of Public Instruction, and the Irrodent reflexioris which time allowed to form and fructify in the mods of the pupils, the eagerness with which they proceeded to the lectures of their esteemed Pro. lessors, has not been the occasion or pretext /or any disorder, as previously to the late e►ents ■ll posited off with the greatest regularity.— The Professor of French law, M. Durauton, had more thou 400 pupils in his class; be took occasion to address some observations and advice to them, which were recei►ed with attention and respect, and which were interrupted only by the most litely i4emoustratioos of admiration of the wisdom which suggested them. The young men of France may btmisled, but they quickly attend to the voice of honour, winch always coincides with that of duty ; mud their cooduct, on this occasion, is a guarantee that that which they will pursue in future will be worthy of themselves and of those masters who in struct them in the peaceful study t►f the laws. On Friday and S.t.rddy next several studen's. arrested during the late diaturbances, will be put upon their trials before the Correctional Tribunal. It is considered surprising that hostilities have not commenced between the Turks and Russians, but there are difficulties of • local nature opposed to it. The earth mug have time to grow firm, and the grass to shoot. In the war of 1769, Prince Ga. Mein did not pass the Dniester to attack the lines of Chocsim till the 26th of April. The campaign of 1770, in which Romansow, after some checks, gained memorable victories, did not commence till the month of May ; that of 1771, which opened with the siege of Gin rgiova, began in the same month ; the year 1772 passed in negocistions, and the Rus sians did riot cross the Danube to undertake the siege of Silistria, in which they failed, as also in that of Varna, which they attacked with • view to have • port on the coast of Bulgaria, until the end of June, 1773. lu 1774, Romansow did not pass the Danube until the 16th and 17th of Juoe. It was in this campaign that the Turkish army ea camped at Chiumla revolted, refused to fight, and fled towards Constantinople, up event which occa sioned the peace signed on the 26th of July, 1774. --(Corsoitniionnet ) French Funds on the 10th:—.Five per Cent.

[EXTRACT PROM A PRIVATE LETTER.] The ordinary courier from Constantinople arrived yesterday, but the letters which be has brought have not been yet distributed. The general opinion here is for war; but there are always people, proprietors of large sums in 'roper, who believe, or at least strive to make the public believe, that peace may be yet preserved. They found their hopes upon the eminently pacific character of the Em peror Alexander, who has already more than once disappointed the warlike expectations of his subjects, and upon the possibility that the Porte will revoke its Note of the seth February, and give it at least a less o f fensive form. We know that our Court, perhaps in its pacific inteutions, has refused to receive this Note. We observe here some military preparations, but they are as yet of little importance, and it is sought to keep them secret. The Turkish ,squadron io the &mine Sea has, it is said, chased three Russian vessels, of which it captured two, on pretence that they had Greek property on board. LIIPSIC, MARCH 30. Prince Cantaeowne, who arrived yesterday from Dresden, will shortly set out for St. Peterburgh, Dining the °egotist ions, he found difficulties in the way of his obtaining passports, but as war is now considered certain, he will experience no further delay. Orders have been given in Russia, for the formation of an army of reserve, which is to assemble in the environs of Kalugs, and also for the est•bliehment of cousiderablemagsames. The reserve of the, artillery will likewise be posted at Ksluga, until further orders. In the event of a war, the army against the Turks will amount to 250,000 men. It will be joined by • fresh division of ca valry, principally composed of dragoons. ODESSA, MARCH 15. Accounts from Constantiouple of March it, state, that the war with Russia is much talked of in that capital. The fleet has sailed for Candia with 16,000 troops on board. Letters of the 12th announce that the preparaw tions for war have excited serious •ppreheneimes amongst the Christians. The city, however, ea. joys a considerable degree of tranquillity. Several vessels under a foreign flag have been seized at Coostaatioopk, and their cargoes confis cated, which has occasioned remonstrances on the part of the Ambassadors. SPANISH PAPERS AND HAMBURGH MAIL. PAINPRLUNA, MARCH 25. We have hid no fresh disturbances. The troops are in the citadel, the peasants in the town, both afraid to /hew themselves ; some, however, come to make purchases in the market without soy dispute arising. Various information is received which will lead to discover the plan that was formed against Pam peluna ; since it appears that on St. Joseph's day, in the evening, allusion was publicly made at Ta fella to disturbances at Pampsluisa, and the very same happened at a coffee-house at Bayonne on the same day arid hour. While such expressions were used at two places so remote from each other, the people at Pampelune were perfectly tranquil, and most of them abroad celebrating the festival of St. Joseph. A secret end perhaps a powerful hand persecutes as, but the mystery will be cleared up, as it is highly important to as that it would be. Several fatuities have err ignited from apprehen sion of what might happen, yesterday and to-day, new commotion% having been announced far these two days. It is impossible to calculate whether such would or would not have taken place under other circamstsncea, but we can say, that whatever desire or intention there might have been to create such disorders, dm vigorous activi:y of the audio. titles, the patroles of the militia, in short the display of the municipal force, have sufficed to frustrate auy malicious designs, if such were entertained. Certain it is, that for fear of them many families, who have not emigrated, have, however, sent the women and tbildren to the neighbouring, (Owns, all *hick keeps Painpeluua in a state or great uneasiness. MADRID. MARCH 51. We have received an express from Pampeluna with important information up to the 27th. Every thing had remained quiet, and the fears of the in habitants were beginning to he allayed when news arrived that General Lopez Banos was coming to the city with six hundred mess of the regiments Imperial Alexander and Seville, and some revelry, to take the command of the 15th military division. As the officers of the regiment Imperial Alezan. der had addressed to the Cortes a vehement re monstrance against the citizens of Pampelnna, it was feared that the entrance of these troops might give rise to fresh disturbances. The Magistrates therefore sent a deputation to General Loper Ba nos who prevailed on him to enter the city with only his staff sod twenty-four cavalry, leaving the troops at too leagues distance from the city, which he has promised shall not form part of the garrison. Thus tranquillity has been preserved. The General declares that he will act iu every particular in can cer► With the authorities, and that his coming with troops arose from a supposition that no authority, either civil or military, was recognized in the city. Accession' from Cadii of the 22d of March, state that the reacts lately arrived in that plrt from the Hammel) and Porto Rico, bring very favourable news relative to the state of affairs on the continent of South America. General Latour and General Morales were stated to have been very successful. The letters from Porto Rico up to sth of February positively affirm the death of Bolivar. It had been prohibited for two months in the Columbian Re public to say any thing respecting him, and Paez signs himself President of the Republic. BARCELONA, MARCH 29.

Our state Gazette contains the following remark able article : " Acconnts have been circulated in the public journals which have excited general apprehension re specting the possibility of preserving peace in the East. Though the negotiations at Constantinople, es well as at Vieooa, are a political secret, we are, however, authorised to declare, that nothing has happened which can be assigned as a ground for these apprehensions. " Not a word] has yet bear peonoonced by any Court which can be considered as a declaration °f ever or which must lead to such a declaration. With the undoubted wish of his Majesty the Emperor of Italia to avoid war, if it can be done in a manner compatible with the honour of his crown; with the most positive assurances of the Divan of its wil lingness to remove every cause of offence to its powerful neighbour; with the zealous efforts of the Austrian Ambassador, and of the Prussian Charga d'Affaires at Constantinople, to iodoce the Porte to the performance of its treaties; with the convictions of the Divan that these Ministers are actuated by the purest motives in advising it to preserve peace by concession, there is the best-founded hope that the difficulties still existing will soon be re mosed,—(Harebergh Correspondent, April 9., Some persons have been disposed to coosider the article in the State Gazette, respecting the state of the negociistions with Turkey, as official, which however is not the case, as it was inserted only in the unofficial part of that paper.—(Hambyrgh Barrios Hull List, April 8.) STOCILHOLW. APRIL 2. Our official Casale coutaws the fulluwiug article : " Letters from Constantinople of the 9th of Marcbovitich hove been received here by express, say, that the head'of Ali Pacha has been exposed at the gate of the Seraglio, and that the Paella was betrayed by his own people, the usual fate of traitors. His treasures are estimated at forty mil lions rix dollars, Hamburgh bunco. The friends of peace fear that the Turks, intoxicated by this sue yeas, may break off the negociations, and that the influence of the Janissaries over the Sultan may be effectual."

All the accounts which we have received for some days peat from Vienna, Warsaw, St. Petersburgh, &c. are of a very warlike tendency, mud people believe that hostilities between Russia and Turkey are et hand. The Greek Prince Cantacuxeno, who has just arrived here rim Dresden, is said not yet to have received his passports to proceed to St. Peters burgh. LONDON, MONDAY. Aram is. Saturday evening his Majesty's brig //albino, Captain WHITWORTH LLOYD, arrived at Porta mouth from Port Royal, Jamaica, whence she sailed on , the gth of February, leaving there the Time, Captain GODFREY Carnation, Captain %VAL corr ; and T►ibune, Captain WILLOUGHBY, C.B. The latter ship had suffered much from sickness. The troops had also suffered greatly, particularly the 50th regiment. There was no news from the Main. The Paris Papers of Wednesday and Thursday last are as inconclusive upon the question of the long-threatened war between Russia and Turkey as any of those previously received, but it most not be thence understood that they are wanting in port tive assertions that hostilities are inevitable. In deed if we were to give implicit credit to their state ments, we should find in the improving state of the weather the certain harbinger of war, for they more us that nothing now prevents the approach of the hostile armies but the physical difficulties that are offered to their movements by the indifference of the climate, and the impassable condition of the roads. It would seem, however, that there are still many persons in the political societies of Germany who continue to bops that the tranquillity of Europe will not be interrupted. The private sentiments of the Emperor ALEXANDRA are pre sumed to be eminently pacific, sod it is repre sented that the mission of the Senator TATISCIEFIP from Petersburgh to Vienna had for its object to engage the active energy of the Austrian Cabinet in the cause of peace. A treaty has, it is said, been proposed by the Emperor Autism:ma, which is to bind the Court of Vienna to act in concert 'with Russia; and it is supposed that a threat of an invasion by Austria, in concurrence with the passage of the Pruth by the Russians, will have the effect of compelling the Porte to accede to the conditions prescribed in the Ultimatum. A treaty to this effect has, we are assured, been actually concluded be tween Austria and Russia, and the return of the note addressed to the Court of Vienna by the Reis Effendi, announcing the refusal of the Divan to accept the Ultimatum, is supposed to evince the sincerity with which Austria has resolved to pursue the spirit of this engagement. The preparations for war on the part of Russia and Turkey have been urged on both sides with extraordinary activity and effect. Letters received in Frankfort from Russia intimate that the first Russian army now assembled on the Pruth and in Bessarabia is 280,000 strong, and that of this force 26,000 are cavalry. The park of artillery consists of 500 pieces of cannon. Immense magazines have been collected at Kaluga,the principal place d'ar►Nes in the empire, and a second army has been formed, equalling the first in magnitude and effect. The Ottoman armies in Ronal* are extremely numerous; but an army of reserve, amounting to 150,000 men, has been collected on the Asiatic side of the Bosphorus, where it awaits only its final equipment previous to its being brought into Europe. A few days were thought sufficient to accomplish this purpose, and in the confidence of this disposable force to replace the army which had been formed at Adrianople, the Porte had ad vanced the army towards the Danube. The Austrian armies are also increased, and it is said that resolution has been formed by the Austrian Government to withdraw its whole army from Naples and Sicily. The King of NAPLES persists in exercising acts of tyranny towards his people, and so severe have been some traces of his conduct, that even Baron FalliONT has been induced to remons►rate with him. It has been conjectured that this solitary movement towards mercy upon the part of the Austrian authorities in Italy, is an evidence of the determination of Austria to withdraw its troops, and that it hopes by a tardy display of kindly feelings towards the unhappy people •f the south of Italy to leave a favourable impression of the temper and spirit of their Government. It is stated in one of the Paris Papers that the French Government proposes to assemble an army of observation of 20,000 enso, under General COUTARD, but the purpose presumed to be coo. templated is not noticed. The Spanish Govern ment evinces much uneasiness at the proximity of the French unitary cordon, and has, it is said, positively required that it should be immediately removed at least three leagues front the frontiers. The petition of Mr. Lowaneir to the Chamber of Deputies, complaining of the conduct pursued towards him respecting his daughter, was expected to be snide the subject of a report from the Com mittee on Thursday. It is remarkable that there is a petition complaining of au outrage of the same nature from a M.

We have received Spanish Papers, froth which we collect that the city of Pampeluna was, in the taitt.r part of March, the Itene of some *Fiona dir_ turbaisces, and that although at the time of the departure of the last courier the city was perfectly quiet, • great degree of uneasiness still prevailed. Accounts from Cadit affect to give a (avowable report of the state of the Spanish army in South America. They speak also of the death of 1101.1* sa. mid intimate that his popularity had wholly cease I for some months previous to his death. This es.i.t is represented as having occurred previous to v... 9d of February. The silence of later accounts fmot South America sheers the incorrectness of the state ment.
