FOREIGN IN TELLIGBNCE. fr" El ENCH PAPERS. (From ti e Gazette de France, dated Oct. 25.) PARIS OCT. 24.—Letters from Corfu positively affirm that, with the consent of the three Allied Pcrefers, the fortresses in the Morea have not been .'applied with provisions. On the contrary, it has been stipulated with Ibrahim, that only the pro vigion, necessary for his troops till their embarka tion should be landed. These letters add, that Patras has been able to receive provisions only from the land side, but not fro m t h e fl eet which has ar• ri . ted from Alexandria. It seenes that a report had Been spread that the English Admiral, Sir Pulteney Malcolm, was not to act in concert with the other Admirals, and that these 'reports had relaxed the preparations of Ibrahim for the evacuation of the Morea. But Sir P. Malcolin declared to the Pacha in the most formal manner, that he was resolved to execute, in concert with the other Admirals, the Convention of Alexandria and the Treaty of 6th July. The Coln Gazette announces that Baron Germet, one of the Commissaries of the French army in the Morea, has arrived in the lonian Islands, to make contracts with several mercantile houses for the supply of the troops. The sum, as we have already stated, is 700,000 francs per month. It seems, however, from a letter quoted by the Austrian Ob server, that Baron Germet, seeing that Corfu had but bey resources for the supply of an army, in tended to apply elsewhere. On the 29th September all the transporrts which were at Corfu had been invited to go to Navarin to take on board and convey to Egypt, upon advan tageous terms, Ibrahjan Pacha and the remains of his army. We hy:e received the following letter from Odessa-, dated August 3, which may be compared with, the Russian bulletins :-- " The Flora frigate has just arrived here from Xovarna with a great number of sick. It brings the certain news that at the latter end of September the first regiment of Chasseurs of the Guard, which was posted on the banks of Lake Leman, near Varna, was attacked by the Turks (supposed to be the ran guard of the Grand Vizier), and destroyed, with the excerition of one battalion, which escaped. The Gc‘neral who commanded it is among the killed.— The Emperor is much affected by the event. " It is said that the Prince of Hesse-Homburgh (Austrian Ambassador) has received the invitation to go to Varna; but as the frigate which is to con vey him thither is the same which has brought the sick here, it will, probably, be necessary to wait some days before it is completely purified." The Gazette de France, quoting from the Con stitutionnel of Friday, the P.S. to a' letter from Vienna, observes :—" It appears to us that this news is extremely prirblematical, because the letter, and the Journals received to-day from Germany con tain no indication of anything of the kind." (From the Constitutionnel of Friday. VIENNA, OCT. ls.—Letters from Bucharest of the 6th October state that Nicholas has quitted his head-quarters to return to St. Petersburgh ; that the siege of Varna is raised ; and that the Russians have lost baggage, equipage, and everything. The friends of the Turks add, that the Emperor's reason for re treating is the discovery of a conspiracy, in which some very great persons are concerned. It is like wise added, that the plague has shown itself in the Muscovite army, and that it is the intention of the Turks to endeavour to penetrate as far as Odessa; and that the Sultan is going to Shumla, to establish his Court. On the 27th and 28th of September, Generals Geismar and Roth had obtained fresh advantages against the Turks at Sirbi and Romank4, near Ka rakal, where they have dispersed the troops com manded by the Pachas of Widdin arid Nicopolis. The Adjutant-General Kisselew has received the following communication from his Imperial Ma jesty "Paul Dmitrivritsch, in recompence for the dis tinguished valour, the incredible activity, and the military skilfulness which you displayed in the ac tions of the 20th July and the 7th August, at Shumla, in my presence, I present you with a gold hilted sword, ornamented with the inscription " Fur merit e and I add to it the testimony of my great satisfaction at the important services you have ren dered to the glory of the Russian arms. " Sbumla, Oct. 9." " NICHOLAfi." Letters from Odessa of the 4th and sth of Octo ber, state that the Russians having succeeded in driving the. Ottoman army from its position, have given it battle. Victory was disputed for several houri, but at length the Turks were completely routed, and fled for the Balkan ; 25,000 of them were left dead on the field, and the Vizier, in addi tion to being wounded, lost all his baggage and am munition. The necessary consequence of this battle must be the fall of Varna. TOULON, OCT. 18.—The Scipio and Trident, to getl,.;. kith several other ships of war, are lying in our Road, ready to depart on the first signal. It is expected that in a few days they will sail, the one for Algiers, and the other for Navarin and the Levant. The embarkation of forage and provisions is still carrying on. The eleven loaded transports are only waiting for the Pallas to set sail. Other transports are expected from Marseilles ; and the Torch has departed with her escort. Accoe ding to lour last letters from the Morea, the land troops are disposed of as follows:--2,000 men at the camp of Petalidi, 7 or 8,000 men encamped round Navarin, and a detni-brigade at the Isthmus of Lepanto. This last body is to assist the execu tion of a mission given b y Admiral de Rigny to several vessels, and the object of which is to can nonade the forts of Lepanto and of Patias, and to reduce them to dust if they resist. T he vessels of the Porte are at Navarin and along the shores of the Mores. . --- PARIS. OCT. 23.—llespatches of the 34 sth October, from General the Marquis Maison, reached us to-day. Ibrahim finally quitted on the 4th with the last Egyptian troops. The number of our sick among those who are encamped at Navarin is much increased. Intermittent fevers are the most com mon. A double ration of wine has been Ferved out to the sold:ers, as the means of preserving their health, and a convoy of cattle arriving from Italy has suspended the allowance of salt meat.-11/oniteur. We can state positively, that the French Ambas sador at the Court of Russia has been invited by the Emperor to join him before Varna. M. de • Mortemar has embarked in the Pantaleimon, a ship of the line, sent express Loin Odessa to receive him, as ell as his military colleagues. It was on the ot 3 of September that M. de Mortemar embarked for Varna. BERLIN, OCT. 16.-4 PriVide Letter.)—There is much conversation now with respect to the negocia tions, .which will b e commenced as soon as the Em peror Nicholas arrives at St. Petersburgh, the ob ject of which will be to terminate the affairs of the East by an arrangement. It is feared that if the affair does not succeed, the war will become general, and particularly that England will take an active part in it. That Power could not remain indifferent to the intention manifested by Russia in the blockade of the Dardanelles. trading , 'rile opinion as to the co urse whi ch Prussia will adopt then is still very much dig ded. The and commercial classes desire neutrality to be pre served as long as possible, without comp rom i s i ng general interests; for commerce still remembers its losses, when, im 1806, after the occupation of Ha nover by our troops, England, considering herself in ft spite of war with Prussia, destroy ed, at a single blow, all our navigation. Our navigation has never been compensated for those losses, which ruined several of our highest houses. - The King is very pacifically inclined; but as he is extremely attached to his family, it is possible he might, in case of an alternative, declare himself for Russia. Nothing hitherto denotes that any idea of war is entertained. It iv said that the intrigue which introduzed the false articles from Bucharest, concerning the opera tions of the Russian army, into the Gazette Univer selle (2f Augsbwgh, has been discovered. A well known ranking house, it is said, wished, by these means, to discredit the last Russian loan negoeiated at Amsterdam by the House of Hope. It is also thought that certain men in the Cabinet have con curred in spreading these reports in order to paralyze by their means the display of the Russian forces. In fine, we are assured that that same loan had been first proposed to the house of Rothschild, which, having consulted its protectors of London and Vienna, thought proper to refuse it.

CONSTANTINOPLE, SEPT. 25.—The Porte, it is said, has already given an answer, and which has been forwarded to Corfu by Mr. J. Zuylen, the Am bassador of the Netherlands, to the most recent in vitations of the Ambassadors of England, France, and Russia, to accede to the Treaty of July 6, 1827. The contents of the answer may be inferred from the expression of the Reis Effendi to the Austrian and Dutch Dragomans on this occasion. He said, " That notwithstanding the evident protection of the Almighty, who had favoured the sword of the just, and chastised the Muscovites, the Porte was still ready to negociate with the Ambassadors of England and France on the basis already mentioned, and it wished soon to see those Ambassadors at Con stantinople for that purpose. On the other hand, it is beneath its dignity to send an Ambassador to Corfu, where there are Russian Negociators and Deputies of the Greek Insurgents." Thisremarkable conduct of the Divan gives rise to many conjectures. Some persons think that the Divan is more and mote influenced by the counsels of the English Cabinet. They therefore think it not improbable, that in con sequence of this the acceptance of the Convention of the 6th July, 1827, will be at once declared. The Divan, they say, would certainly act prudently in so doing, as the influence of Russia, in consequence of the events on the Danube, does not now seem to preponderate, as it did a few months ago, and the word of England with respect to the pacification has removed all doubts on unforeseen cases. They think that if due advantage is taken of all these circum stances, the Porte might hope that the treaty of the 6th July would be applied as Mr. Canning seems to have understood it; that is, by no means to deprive the Porte of its sovereignty over Greece, but to make it a tributary state, which must be of more value to the Divan than any other provinces in the power of rapacious Pachas, who exhaust the country for their own profit.—Allgemeine Zcitung, Oct. 20. FROM THE VISTULA, OCT. B.—Travellers from the interior of Russia affirm, that the Imperial Ukase of August 28, for a new levy, has been received with the greatest enthusiasm in all the provinces of the Empire. The local Magistrates and the landowners emulate each other in zeal to execute the measure with the least possible delay; and it can hardly be doubted that the losses whi c h the Russian army has sustained will soon be more than made good. The road from Tula to Kief is covered with consignments of arms, whence it is to be presumed that the latter place will be a principal rendezvous of the new re cruits.—Nuremburgh Correspondent, Oct. 19. VIENNA, OCT. 14.—The Corfu Journal, of Sept. 27, gives the following particulars of the expedition of the notorious Passano against Prevesa, which seems to have wholly failed The expedition fitted out by the'Greek Govern ment against Prevesa, which consisted of about 40 gun-boats, several light vessels, and two steam boats, under Colonel Passano, and 8,000 land troops, under Genera: Church, seems to have wholly failed. " Of the land troops divided into two corps, one advanced against Vostizza, and the other point of Pre vesa (where the ruins of Actium tie), in order to co ! operate with the flotilla which, however, after exchang ing some shot with the forts of Prevesa, left that position, as we learn by accounts brought to-day by the steam-boat, without any ether probable reason than the difficulty of forcing tl.e passage through the Channel into the Gulf."

BRUSSELS, OCT. 24.—Yesterday, the 23d, the 2d Chamber of the States-General received in the usual form a royal resolution, announcing, that of the three candidates proposed by the Chamber, his Majesty had chosen the first on the list, M. Reyhins, who was invested with that office in the last Ses sion but one. Baron Roell is appointed by his Majesty, Presi dent of the First Chamber for this Session.— Brussels Papers, Oct. 25. (The German Papers have no news from the theatre of war, later than the bulletins from Shumla of September 27, and from Varna to the Ist of October. At Odessa, on the 3d of October, there was a vague report -of the defeat of the Grand Vizier, and the taking of Varna, but there was no official account at Odessa so late as Oct. 1.) Miss PHILLIPS, the successful debutante at Drury-lane, is likely to revive the spirit of the tragic muse.

SOUTHAMPTON, OCT. 25.—The new pier, which will be commenced as soon as the necessary powers are obtained, will extend in a straight line, about 150 feet beyond the Breakwater, and then branch off to the right and left, in the form of the letter T. A convenient place of embarkation in all times of tide, and in all winds, will then be formed.—lt is not, we understand, intended to introduce any compulsory enactment into the Act, as was at first supposed by some, but the proprietors of the several steam-packets have already signified their intention to sup port the undertaking, by engaging to land their passengers upon the pier. We cordially wish success to an undertaking so advantageous and honourable to the town. PA 111 S, OCT. 21.—A n elopement took place here a few days ago, which has caused a great sensation among a certain class of the English residents, by whom one of the party had been known for several years. A reverend gentleman aged 1.2 was introduced a few months since to a f am il y t h at had recently arrived in Paris, for the purpose o f spend i ng a twelvemonth in the capital. This family consisted of three persons ; a father, an elderly gentleman ; his daughter, eighteen years of age ; and her mother-in - l'" 7, a blooming dame of faur and thirty. The clergyman was unmarried, and it is said, deria ed his means of existence from literary contributions to various English periodicals : his fascinating manners made him an agree able . o rnpanion, and it was generally reported that he had of f ere d honourable proposals to the young lady, and had met not only with her consent, but that also of her parents.

LONDON. MONDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 27, 1628. The French Papers make up for the want of au thentic intelligence from the seat of war, by ac counts of a great battle said to have been fought between the Russians and Turks before Shumla, in which the Turks were defeated with the loss of 25,000 men. This news is contained in a letter from Odessa, dated on the 4th and sth Oct. ; but the day on which the "great battle" was fought is not mentioned, neither is the locality described. These defects tend to throw discredit upon the veracity of the account altogether. The Rus sians are said to have succeeded in drawing the Turks from their entrenchments into the plain, where, after a furious battle of several hours, the Turks were so completely beaten that they re treated towards the Balkan mountains, leaving their guns, baggage, &c. in the hands of the Russians, besides a number of general and other dicers killed and wounded. The Grand Vizier is said to have been wounded, and Om ER VRIONE killed, as well as seven Pachas. Indeed, the victory is made so complete; that we are in clined to doubt it entirely. The fall of Varna was expected as an immediate consequence of the affair. The wonder is that Varna should not have fallen long ago. But while we throw discredit upon this fa vourable account for the Russians, we must do them the justice to observe, (which we did in fact at the time,) that the stories of their great reverses were most ,unblushingly exaggerated by the German Journals in the Turkish interest. We suspected at the time that stock jobbers were at the bottom of these tricks ; and we now find our suspicions confirmed by the following postscript to a letter from Vienna:— [A letter from Berlin, in the same,paper, attributes the accounts from Bucharest, which described the Russians as beaten and retreating, to a great binking-house (Messrs. Rothscliilds), which wished to depieciate the Russian loan contracted for by the Hopes of Amsterdam.] And it is in this way that the money lenders play upon the credulity of honest men to their own profit ! Dutch Papers of the 25th inst. maintain that the Russian armies still occupy their positions before Shumla and Varna. The Allgemeine Zeitung and the Nuremburg Corrazpondent contain the Russian bulletins from the Prussian State Gazette, but nothing more recent : JASSY, OCT. I. The latest accounts from the theatre of war say that the Russian army of the left wing still remains in the position before Shumla, notwithstanding the declaration in its own bulletins that it was intended to leave it. Severe actions however, daily took place. BUCHARESC, OCT. 6. We have no news from Little Wallachia since the vic tory of General Geismar. The two main Russian armies are still before Shumla and Varna, and the earlier state ments of a retreat of the first towards the Danube are not confirmed. It is natural that the retreat from Shunt's) announced by the Russians themselves as near at hand, should increase the general alarm that had prevailed here for some months, respecting the military operations, and that this gave rise to, exaggerations which may be easily excused under these circumstances. _ . • VIENNA, OCT. 15. —Metalliquea, 94 7-16; Bank Shares, 1,076. VItNNA, OC2'. lb. The President of Greece has addressed a circular to the Panhellenion and to the extraordinary Commissioners in the departments, stating, that the Ambassadors of the three Allied Powers had signified to him that they were authorised by their Courts to open communications with the Government of Greece, and, in concert with the Pre sident, to prepare the means of regulating the affairs of Greece, on the - principles of the Treaty of London. They therefore invite the President to collect statistical information, and lay before them all the remarks which may be calculated to decide the several caves which, according to the Treaty, will have to be determined under the media tion of the Allied Powers, by the negoeiations between the Greek and 'Turkish Agents. The President therefore calls on those to whom his circular is addressed, to send all the information in their power respecting the following points: I. In those parts of Greece which have been the theatre of war, what was and what is the proportion of the Greek inhabitant s to the Turks ? 2. What is the proportion in those provinces between the landed property belonging to Greeks, and that belong ing to Turks? $. Of the Turkish landed property, what proportion belongs to religious establishments, and what to private persons ? 4. What is the number of Greek citizens now in those provinces and of those who have fled to the Islands of the Archipelago, to Calamo, aWd the vicinity ? 5. What is the most probable estimate of the value of the house!, plantation!, olive gardens, flocks, and other pro- ~? ~~ 1; ~ petty destroyed by Ibrahim Pacha since the conclusion of the Treaty of 6th July, 1827 ? The President requires that the answers shall be as near the truth as possible, so that they may hear the strictest investigation. Hamburgh Papers of the 22d inst. have been received this morning. If we may credit an article from Odessa, the whole Corps Diploma tique, with the exception of Lord HEYTES. BURY, embarked for Varna, to join the Imperial head-quarters. From this we may infer, if there was any doubt of the fall of Varna, that the Ambassadors would not go : ODES SA, ocr. 4. At five o'clock yesterday afternoon Prince Philip of Hesse-Homburg ; the French Ambassador, the Duke de Montemarte ; the Hanoverian Ambassador Extraordinary, Lient.-Gen.

The news of a sudden augmentation of the Russian gar rison on the Aland islands, is declared, on authority that may be depended upon, to be wholly false. COPENHAGEN, OCT. 18. According to the accounts received from many parts of Denmark, we may assume that the late harvest was good as far as relates to quantity, but that in quality it is much inferior in many parts of the kingdom to that of last year. The continued rise in the prices in foreign markets caused much bustle here, but this -is over. There is hardly any old corn, and very little new has yet been brought to market. Prince Frederick is expected here on the 25th by the steam boat. ST. PETERSBUAGH, OCT. 11.

From Vienna and Berlin the posts bring us to-day no account of any considerable variation.

Quebec Papers to the 24th September state that a numerous meeting of Irishmen had taken place at Montreal, on the 7th, for the purpose of taking into consideration the best means of as sisting their fellow countrymen in Ireland in the just cause in which they are engaged, and also to consider the propriety of presenting an Address of Congratulation to D. O'CON'NELL, on account of his splendid success at the Election of Clare. Dr. TRACEY in the Chair. Among the Resolutions, it was resolved that, an Association be founded in the city o Mon treal, to be called the " Society of the Friends of Ireland in Canada," for the purpose of raising A Fund to aid that distinguished body, the Catholic Association of Ireland. The Treasury Department of the United States have issued a circular to the Collectors of the Revenue of the Inland frontier, on the Canada Line, recommending the utmost vigilance of the officers to prevent the smuggling of foreign goods on that great and extended inland and water frontier, which it is acknowledged gives so many facilities for the introduction of contraband goods. Gibraltar Gazettes and private letters of the 6th inst. have been received, and supply us with further particulars of the progress of the fever, which we are sorry to state is still on the in crease. On the 3d, 591 patients were ill, 101 admitted, and 24 deaths ; on the 4th, 600 ill, 90 admitted, and 24 dead ; on the 6th, 620 ill, 27 dead ; so that 99 persons had fallen victims within the last four days by its ravages. Some smugglers having landed at A lgesiras had been shot, for having come from the fortress, and had their clothes and bodies burnt ; six or seven of the same description of persons had been put to death near Cadiz ; and the utmost alarm seems to have seized the Spanish authorities, who had intimated to Governor DoN, that if these per sons were permitted to leave the garrison certain death would be their fate ; besides which they would cut off the supplies to the fortress. In consequence of this, the General had issued a proclamation, which states that in consequence of a disease highly dangerous to the public health existing, and its being expedient to prevent its introduction into the neighbouring countries, it is ordered that all vessels or craft under forty tons be not allow e d to clear out from the Port without special permission of the Lieutenant- Governor, on app li cat i on to t h e C a pt a i n o f th e Port. The wind was West, ar,d rather showery, but heavy rains were wanted to cleanse the air from infection. On the 6th, we are sorry to observe, thirteen Officers were sick. By the Mexican Mail, Papers have been re ceived from the city of Mexico of the 23d, and Vera Cruz to the 29th of August. The two favourite candidates for the Presidentship appear to be GUERRERo, and PEDRAZA, at present Minister of War. The election seems prin- `~ cipally to occupy the public mind, and the re sult was doubtful which party would succeed. PEDRAZA appeared to have a preponderance in his favour. His Majesty's ship Aurora had returned from Tampico to Vera Cruz, and was on the 23d on the eve of sailing for Tampico and England. She had on board 11,500 dol lars, and 89 serons of cochineal, for the Havan nah ; and 186,200 dollars, and 163 serous of cochineal, for England. The convoy from Za caticas was expected, in which case she would receive 200,000 dollars more. The packet con veys 7,500 dollars for the Havannah, and 130,000 fbr Great Britain. Trade was dull ; but, as the country was in a state of quiet, it was expected to improve. No money, or even the prospect of any, is mentioned as being about to be sent for Government account. Lord NuoENT's letter on the present con dition of Ireland contains a plain and forcible view of the state of that country, which must carry conviction to every unprejudiced mind. One great evil plainly is, that an unconstitutional Association rules four-fifths of the Irish people, who obey its• mandates with all the reverence due to laws. All are agreed as to this disorganized state of political society in Ireland ; and the Orangeman says " Make use of the force which is in your hands, and put down the Catholic As sociation, at whatever cost." We say " No, " you cannot put down the Catholic Association " by force ; it has its origin in oppression, " the Irish people are united by oppression— " they unite to seek redress of their common " wrongs ; and to use force to put them down, " first to oppress them, and when they complain, " to oppress them more, is only adding to the " evil, and still further disuniting the community " into two separate and hostile classes, which is " the very evil complained of." Certain it is, ' that we are at present reaping the bitter fruits of our own intolerance. We have sown the seed, and it has sprung up into a plentiful crop of dis content. The Orangemen are angry that the Catholics complain of their exclusion from office, but if the Orangemen were excluded would not they complain ? It is easy for those who are enjoying a monopoly of all the good things of the State to preach up contentment—but would they be content if they were excluded from their share of the spoil ; if they were branded as in capable of holding Ace ? It is the reluctance of this faction to give up their monopoly—to admit the Catholics even to share with them in the sweets of once, that is the cause of all the evil ; for rather than yield to the Catholics, they would riot in their blood. Again and again we would most earnestly impress upon Government that the Orangemen are the real enemies of peace in Ireland ; they cling to their long-cherished pri vilege of oppressing their fellow-citizens, and man is so framed that he cannot submit quietly to oppression. Consequently, until the great body of the people are freed from their galling bondage, there will be no solid peace or satisfac tion in Ireland. We cannot expect to raise such precious fruits from a soil in every respect so harsh and uncongenial. The late fluctuations in the price of grain de serve to be noted, as illustrating in a striking manner the effects of an accidental alarm on the market. We know that a permanent rise in the price of grain can only take place in consequence of a deficient supply, and it flows as a necessary gr ee t from this cause. It is clear that the supply of corn which is produced only once a year, whether it be great or small, must always last until a new supply can be procured ; and a deficient supply will only last by being more sparingly used. Now there is no other expe• dient, by which economy in the use of the sup ply can be enforced, but a high price ; and the price therefore must rise to the exact point ne cessary for this, and it cannot rise higher. It i s quite an absurd, and now an exploded notion, that grain can be raised in price by combinations or monopolies of any sort. Those who in their folly or their avarice suppose that they can dam up the supply of grain in its progress to the market, and dispense it to the consumer, as the East India Company dispense their supplies of tea, would only bring swift destruction on them selves, overwhelmed as they would soon be by the torrent of produce which a rise of price would instantly draw upon them from all quar ters. No dealer in grain would indeed be mad eno u g h to make this attempt. But though a permanent rise of price can only be produced by a deficient supply, there may be a transient rise, as in the present case, from accidental causes. It frequently happens, that, in the interval, when the old supply is going out, and the new supply is corning in, there is a great uncertainty, except indeed in some extreme cases, as to the state of the produce.. This then is just the time for an alarm of scarcity, or, at least , of defi ciency ; and hence the prospect of gain sets the speculator to work. Supplies are •aith- held from the market, under the unfounded no tion of a deficiency ; and for the time this is the case. The supply actually offered for sale falls short of the demand, and a rise of price is the necessary consequence. But there is, however, no real deficiency, it is only a temporary failure of the supply from an unfounded alarm, and the mistake is instantly corrected by the rise of price, by which, if we may so express ourselves, an ap peal is made from the actual supply in the market ntlcis OF SHARES THN DAY AT OKI O'CLOCK.
