RKISH NOTE ON THE ISLES OF THE
DANUBE.

The Nord, of Brussels, publishes the following new
diplomatic document from the pen of Ferad Packs,
Minister of the Foreign Affairs of the Sublime Porte.
The note iv addressed to the ministers of the Sultan
at the courts of the Great Powers, and is dated
August 8:
Sir,—At the Congress of Pris, when the works to be
'sleeted at the month of the Daunt* were under discus-
sion, the Otte:masa plenipotwitioriss stated that the Sublime
Porte would willingly make the advances demanded for those
work,. This declaration is registered in the Protocol of the
27th March, No. 16; and immediately after the ex-
change of the ratification, of the Treaty of Paris, the
Imperial government hastened to carry it Into execution
by sending a dredging machine to the Salina month, end •
steamboat to assist in elearieg the channel, end by establish-
lag a lighthouse for the security of the navigation. The
commencement of curling out these preparatory improve-
ments, which ought to he followed by such as may be
deemed necessary tea the European commission, wee et the
some time a fermi taking possession of the mouths and
islands of the Dania', which fall back to it of right.
_ _

The Sublime Porte never bad, and cannot have, doubts
as to its right or the intentions of its allies, in respect to
the islands of the Danube and their direct ownership. If
the question is now reverted to, it is to render it more clears ,
and to star. -r the slightest dtabt that may remain on the
point.

The stipulvtions of the Treaty of Paris fin new frontiers
between the Ottoman empire and Bessie on the Beasarabist
side. One part of that province is restored to Turkey and
annexed to Moldavia. But the islands of the Danube can-
not belong to that alms, but must fell under a special end
separate rule.

The territory that is to be mused to Moldavia is a por-
tion of Bessarabia that was formerly part of the hlo:davian
principality, and was ceded to Rook' by the Treaty of
Bache/at in 1812.

The islands of the Dinah*, which
Beetarabia, were placed under the regime by which they
were ruled, prior to the late war, by the Treaty of Adrian-
ople, in 1829, and that regime differel essentially from the
administration of the other bank of the river. That
treaty even bound Routh not to raise soy fortification, and
to build no other than cis tine eetablisbmente. Than
the islanev at the mouth of the Danube never formed part
of bloldaCe, and the y .riod of the', ceuion demonstrates
that they were not ceded t, Russia with Bessarabia as a past
of that province.
A pin of Bessarabia returns to Turkey, and it is to be

amend to Moldavia in virtue of the stipulations of the
Treaty of Paris, whilst the return of these islands to their
former state of tbiags issues fa. a another principle.
The cancellerg of the Treaty of Adrienople, putting an
end to the domination of Russia, restores them to their
ancient possessor. The same principle that cancels the
neutrality of the right bank of the St. George's Channel
restores these Wands to Turkey, from which they had been
detached.

The treaty of the 30th March speaks only of Out put of
Bessarabia which is ended by Ramis. Art. 20 flus the new
frontier between the Ottoman empire and Russia. Art. 21
says that " the territory ceded by Russia shall be annend
to the principality of Moldavia, for the suzerainty of the
Sublime Porto. The inhabitants of that territory shall
' as joy the rights and privileges assured to the Principalities.
and they shall be allowed for three years to charge this
domicile elsewhere, with the power of freely disposing of
their property."

The spirit of this lost ertitle makes it essy to comprehend
that the annexation to Moldavia of the territory ceded by
Russia applies only to Be sierabis, and not to the islands in the
embouchure ; for, speakiag of the inhabitants of the ceded
territory, the treaty evidently excludes the inhabited
islands from the circle of territory that is to be annexed 10
Moldavia. If the contracting Powers desired to give the
elands to the Moldavian principality, the treaty should have
so expressed it in en express clause.
The &els:siker of our plenipotentiaries at the Paris Con.
fescue., embodied in the protocol without any observation
on the port of the Congress, confirms the return of the
mouths of the Danube to the direct ownership of Turkey.

. _
It promises the discharge of a duty in return fur a Tight
recovered. _

The condition In which the islands at the month now are,
the spirit of the treaty itself, and this declaration of taking
powession•-.11 declaration secepted by the Coagreas--will be
evidence of the intentions et our allies es to the future con-
dition of the mouths of the Dumb.. In stipulating for the
restitution of Bessarabia to Moldavia, they undoubtedly had
no intention of wrongiog Turkey by depriving her of what
rightfully returned to her, to unite it to a province having
no claim to it.

Oar august allies must hive recollected the bloed shed at
Oltesitzs, Kalifs!, sad SiliatTia. . _

The oljtct timed at by Eur:pa in stipulating for the res-
titution of the mouths of the Danube was the freedom of
that river. It is plainly evident that the best means Of
attaining that object is to place them again in the hands of
their legitimate proprietor.
As we have said alone, the Sublime Porte, never having
couceived any doubt es to its right or the intention of its
allies, took possession of the Delta of the Danube by begin-
ning to cirry out improvements. It enrolees that tight by
discharging its duty for the interest of the whole world.
You are desired, sir, to offer these riffections and enplane,
lions to the court to which you ate accredited, by affording
a perusal of this despatch.

A Paris letter, in the Independatice of Bruai2%
sa3l:—.. fd. °White, sat-goveraor, of the Bank of France,
went on Saturday to St. Cloud, and rsquered so strongly,
to see the Emperor, that his klejesty, though be was eel
shooting with the Empress in toe reserved park, received
him; he then, with esteems earnestocee, asked his blejeat,
to anthill's' the fe.rced cixcu a iin of back notes, and the
reasons which he gave for bis application tore the impetus
of a profJund conviction. Although the Emperor is not •
partisan of this measure, he mild be wood have it examined
by the council of sairustere. This was done, and it was de
cided almost nnenimou•ly that the authtrisation should not
be accorded."

The Chamber of Commerce and Manufaeares at
Ghent be* precasted so address to the Minister of Finance

National Bank not to accept French gold pieces of 20fr.,

value, causes great perturbation in trade, end is in siolatiom
of a law of the 26th June, 1652. It thereto a esp. he
hops that the mioister will take measure. to remedy the
evils caused by the resolution.

by N. de Prokeech Osten, is about to be e,ncluded between
the Forts and Austria; and we learn that the principal
basis of it is a dieninstioo, and eventually a suppretsioo, of
the duties imposed by Turkey on the esp,rt of goods by
the Austrian hooters, and the grant of extraordinary fact-
lithe for the importation of Austrian preductioas into the
