SYRIA.

A despatch from Beyrout, of the 7th inst., states
that the French squadron, under the command of
Admiral Lebarbier de Tim, will leave the coast of
Syria about the 20th inst., to return to Toulon.
The vessels that are cruising on the coast have re-
ceived orders to rejoin the admiral from the 15th
to the 18th. A division of smaller vessels will be
left as a protection to the inhabitants, under the
orders of Captain Lagrandibre.
The same despatch confirms the report that
Daoud Padua, the Christian Governor of Lebanon,
had nominated the Emir Medjid as Kaimakan or
local governor of Kurawan. The appointment,
it is stated, has had a good effect on the population.
Medjid is a catholic, a descendant of the celebrated
Emir Bechir, and a member of the Cheab family.
