FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. FRENCH PAPERS. PARIS-, OCT. 6.—The Marquis de Clarnier, Peer of France and Minister of State, died the day before yesterday of apoplexy. He has left no direct heirs. The Chevalier Roth, Secretary of the French Legation to the United States, is returned to France on a particular mission. He performed the Toyage in 4- 2.5 days on hoard his Majesty's frigate Lct - Junon; on her arrival at Brest, this ship was pat under quarantine for thirty days with all her passe:tigers. The first anniversary of the birth-clap of the Duke Bordealit has been celebrated in a great many towns. Copies cf a memoir on the situation of Greece, from the pen of - ALS tandza, are circulating among the diplomatists at Frankfurt. This person wrote a memoir on the situation of Germany during the Sitting of the Congress of Aix-la-Chapelle, which produced at that time a great sensation. W have certain intelligence that the state of ht-alth at Cadiz And in the , neighbouring towns is very good. The contagion in Catalonia has not extended beyond Mesquinenza. The late heavy rains have diminished the violence of the disor- der, and have put a stop to its propagation. The authorities of Aragon are very active in prevent ing the contagion from spreading into that pro- 1 , MCP. The whole of the Communications with Spain are cut off, excepting by the road from Bayonne to Iron; but the entry of articles likely to communicate the infection is strictly prohibited. The .Ninisterof War has sent Dr. Audouard, Physician of the Military hospitals at Paris, to Barcelona, to observe the nature. of the yellow fever prevalent there. . Mr. Audouard is an old army Physician, was a long time in Catalonia, and has written several valuable works on conta gious fevers. Accounts brought by several vessels from Se. regal announce that the differences. which had arisen between our settlement and the neighbour- ing tribes have been adjusted. The commercial relations are. re-established, and a considerable quantity of gum has already been contracted for, and shipped for France. The factory re cently established higher up the river begins to be attended with favourable results. W e are assured that the. Government is pro secuting, with the hope of success, the plan of cultivating West India produce at Senegal. Several Spanish and Portuguese ships have in the course of this year put into Gnadaloupe un- der under pretext of damage, but to all appear- ance for • the purpose of landing negroes, they being engaged in the slave trade. The Minister of Marine has, however, by dis patch, dated the 23d of May last, 'notified to the Governor of Guadaloupe, that in future, when foreign slave ships put into Guadaloupe or any of its dependencies;onacconnt or under the pretext of damage, the public administration shall imme- U:ately institute, either,ex-officio or on the special recommendation of the Government, such judicial proceedings as the case may require.

THE AUSTRIAN EMBASSY AT LISBON. VIENNA, SEPT. 25.—Baron 4Sturrner, Imperial and Royal Envoy to the Court of Brazil, having arrived at Lisbon - , renewed the steps vv . hich had before been fruitlessly taken for obtaining satis faction for the insults which took, place in the latter days of April, before the house of M. de Berks, Consul-General, and then Charge d'Af faires from our Court. On the 13th of August last he received from M. Pinheiro Ferreira, Mi nister for Foreign Affairs to the King of Portugal, a note which, far from giving or promising the satisfaction which had been demanded, was con ceived in terms which induced the Baron de Sturmer to ask his passports, rather than to make any reply. The same request was made by Ge neral de Tuyll, the Russian Imperial Envoy, who, on account of the principles put forth in the- Note of the Portuguese. Minister, judged that the continuance of his residence at Lisbon was incompatible with the dignity of his Court. The two Envoys embarked on the 22d of Au gust at Lisbon, with all the persons attached to their suites, on board the English packet-boat Sturmer, and arrived the 2d of the present mouth at Falmouth.—The latest French acid English _Journals contain a Circular, which the Portu guese Ministry addressed to their diplomatic. agents in different countries on the events in sues- don.

On the following day the Charge d'Affaires of his Imperial and Royal Majesty represented what had happened to the Government, ,and demanded a suitable satisfaction and the punishment of the guilty. Batt-instead of fulfilling this. duty, the Govern ment replied by a declaratiOn which, taking it in the most favourable sense, only proved its inabi lity to maintain public tranquillity. The Charge d'Affaires reported the circumstances to his Court.—Rigs Imperial Majesty 'never being ac customed to permit that those rules of th,' law of nations, under the wgis of which the represent atives of other governments are placed in his states, should be lost sight of in foreign countries, and being by no means inclined to recognise the weakness - of a government as a valid reason for the_ breach of these rates, ordered M. de Berks to present a note, and to insist upon a perfectly satisfactory declaration ; am:, in case of refusal, to demand his passports.:--In the meantime the King arrived in Portugal. But the reply pected, in consequence. of the step taken by the Charge d'Affaires conformably to the order he had received, was delayed from week to week. —During this delay Baron Stunner, the Inr perial Envoy, being also arrived in Lisbon, renewed the same complaint ; and finally there appeared on the 13th of August a note from the Portuguese Ministers for Foreign Affairs, the contents of which determined Baron Stunner to execute the instructions he had ceived from his Court and to demand his.pass ports. On the lath General Tnyll, the Envoy of the . Court of Rusia, also delivered to the Portuguese Minister a note, in which he declared that, .under, the present circumstances, and con sidering that by!the principles recently disclosed, and the mettsures announced by the . Portpguese Government, the dignity and authority of his Court was exposed to the risk of offence, he be ' lieved it necessary, la order to secure himself agaipst every - responsibility, to suspend imme diaffly his .diplomatic functions,- to leave his Ma jesty the Kiwi - of Portugal's C our t, an d t o awa i t the further orders' of his Imperial Majesty. The . -twol;lnvoys accordingly . left Lisbon on the td, with all their diplomatic suite, and landed on the cid of September at Falmouth. The Envoy of hiS Imperialand Royal Majesty has transferred to M. Bore!, who remains at Lisbon in the character of Consul-General of Russia, the charge of all commercial affairs and other Matters concerning Austrian subjects." GERMAN PAPERS. PESTII, SEPT. 16.—There are several persons ere, who, during the dreadful Easter holidays at Constantinople, were eye -witnesses of the shameful mutilation of the corpse of the Greek Patriarch, formerly mentioned in the Allgemeine y, and who made a description of it which I will spare Your readers. The corpse was af terwards dragged by cords, fastened to the feet, through many streets, and purposely before the hotel, of Baron Stroganoff. Hundreds of Greeks who have since- fled to Russia will attest this. ODESSA,. SEPT. 4.—Within these two days a report has beet' circulated. of a p ro hibiti on to ex port corn to Turkey, as being shortly to be issued. Those friends of the Turks here, who, from. motives of interest, look on a war with Turkey with horror, see in this prohibition a proof of the most pacific - intentions ; others look on it as a measure on the part of our Government preparato, y to war. Though it might in some measure have been foreseen, yet the mere re port, connected with the abolition of the free port, has, produced an extraordinary stagnation in all business. One thought alone co.:iforts, which is, that if war breaks out this time, the dominion of the Turks in Europe would probably - soon be at an end, and the free navigation of the Bosphorus and the Dar danelles be for ever secured. Our city, whose trade may be said to depend on the caprice of the Turks, tnigllt then look forward to the at, taimnent of the highest prosperity. The num ber of Russian vessels which sailed, in Ouse (pence of the removal of the embargo at Con stantinople, to all parts of the Archipelago, loaded for the most part with corn, and, some perhaps with military stores, is said to have amounted to 200. Baron Strogonoff, who is now out of quarantine, - received on the 2d a courier. from St. Petersburg!), As the report of the prohibition to export corn was spread immediately after, some persons think that the declaration of war will immediately follow. The -native in habitants of Odessa have nothing. else to wish, far otherwise, alter - thiir -loss of-Qnr- privilege of the corn trade, we must soon sink into a village -of fishermen. The English here look gloomy, because, in the present crisis, they cannot hope for any sale of their- immense magazines of goods. —(Allgeneine Zeitung, Septomber 26.) WILNA, SEPT. I.—hi the latter end of last month we had troops of all arms continually marching through this town, most of whom halted for one night,and then continued their march ,to the south-west frontiers of the kingdom. They come, from the interior of the empire, and were all animated with 'the most ardent attach ment and unlimited devotion to their august Mo narch, as well as the joyful hope that they should soon be able to manifest their feelings in the contest for religion and humanity. Among Giese troops were several of those corps which we saw pass through seven years ago to free die west of Europe from foreign- tyranny. The re collection of that eventful period was renewed in all minds on this occasion. For our brave sol diers flatter themselves that they are called upon to break the chain of their oppressed brethren in the south of our continent, and in those countries which, on account of their services in the moral improvement of mankind, are some of the most interesting on the whole surface of the globe, to restore the throne of legitimate authority and the empire - of civilization, whose ruins have been ' buried for four centgries under barbarism and r • bspotistri: ft may be eaSily supposed that the probable object of the unarch of these troops added to the cordiality with which our citizens are used to receii'e our ,soldiers.

W., and, we are sorry to announce, that it was the occasion of much damage on our coast ; the few vessels moored in . our Bay felt its effects most materially. A Welch trader was driven from' her rneorings at Kingstown Harbour, dragging her anchor after her ; she nearly escaped total destruction, as she passed within two yards of the end Of the new pier. A brig, of con siderable size, was in precisely the same situation, - and was preserved by the prompt activity of her Captain and c rew .— A fine three-masted ship, the Eliza, Mr. Wilson, proprietor, was wrecked, in Kingstown harbour, on Monday ; she had been . ' built by the late Mr. Keogh, and was considered one of his best efforts ; she had arrived from, Quebec only last Wednesday week, was bound for this po r t, a nd l a d en with timber and some casks of potash. A few days back she was moored within the Pier, and at six o'clock on Monday morning the violence of the hurricane caused her to drop her anchors ; and, being driven forward with rapidity, she struck on the pier with p r odi g i ous force, and filled with water instantly. It was very fortunate that she was so near aid, and also that her cargo consisted chiefly of timber, or she m us t have been entirely lost. H er broadside struck against that part of the pier nearest to the si tuation lately occupied by the Active, which formed part of the Royal sgeadron.—All the men employed in the works at Kings *town were called on to aid in getting the Eliza off; her masts ' were struck, the lumb er l a nd e d, an d s h e was lightened as much as possible; the l a b ourers and crew toiled all day in vain, and at last, about half-past eight on Monday night, slie.Was cleared from the - . pier, and towed in towards the slip. It was for tunate that her loading, which formed a solid bed of timber .prevented her timbers from b e in g stav e d i n ; -h er outer' prialts„... only are materially damaged; and, if the weather continues 'as it is at present, there is every hope of her preservation from a"y very serious damage. Ten or twelve c a sk s o f p o t as h h ave b een landed from her ; her stern is, at this there, much sunk ; she is completely filled with water.--(Dublin. Correspondent, Oct. G.) A rumour having prevailed in this City for some days, that the Shamrock, cruiser, .had beenlost off the coast of Doneg,al, and that every person on board had perished, we are happy in having the best authority to contradict such a report.- . -- A le.tter was received ea the Custom-house, this day, frem Captain Montgomery, dated the 3d inst., at Lough Ryan, on the coast of Gallowaysliire, stating that he Shamrock had en countered a heavy gale, but did not suffer any dainage.—(lbid,) On Saturday morning, while some boats belonging to Cambletown and Skipncss were at the herring fishing in the Sound of Kilhrannan, it came on to blow a perfect gale of wind, when, we .are sorry to say, a boat belonging to Camble town, and another to Skipness, upset, and all cm b oar d perished -(Edir !-urgli Courant, Oct.o 6.) ANTIQUE BOATS.—About two months ago, two oak canoes, each 21 feet in length, and excavated from the tree, were found in Loughisland Ravey, near Castlewellan. The right side of the one, and the left side of the other, were convex in form ; the opposite sides were perfectly straight, so as that the two could have been occasionally joined together. Swile curious implements of war were found in th,e bottoms of these canoes. The timber of these antique vessels was per fectly sound, and the whole in a high state of preservation. Unfortunately the finders, who liad little respect for antiquity, have burned part of the canoes and made furniture of the remainder. —(Ne;cry Telegrapt.) *.* For MERcA•ron, on the Proposed Reductions in the Public Offices, see the First Paze_,- and for the SPORTING INTELLIGENCE, see the Fourth Page.
