affairs of the Greeks grows worse every day. Gomm who has a for-

caused his money and most trainable effects to be brought to this
Island. It is equally remarkable that all the Greeks at Athens, who
were supposed to be resolved to defend the place, have also sent
ether every thing they possess, reserving only a light covering to
protect them from the raw night air. Should the Turks in.

LONDON, SATURDAY, MARCH 95. 1896.

The following are extracts from the French pipets re-
ceived last night : .

[From the Etoik, dated Thursday, March 23.1
l'icvx.t, Manor 14.

I take advantage of an extraordinary opportunity to give you
some authentic information respecting the health of our beloved
Sovereign. You have seen by the bulletins that, in the night of
the 9th, his Alajesty was suddenly !mired with an inflammatory
fever, for which his physicians ordered him to be twice blooded ; in
consequence of which his Majesty was much relieved, and slept
several hours together on the night of the 10th.
On the morning of the 11th, a local pain induced the applica.
tion of some leeches, which produced the effect desired. The night
of the 11th was more restless than the preceding. On the 12th, in
the morning, there was some relief, but it did not continue, and it
was thought advisable at noon to bleed him again. After this, his
3lajesty was better, and slept in the night of the 12th more, and
more tranquilly, than he had in the preceding nights.

His Majesty's illness had, from the beginning, the decided cha-
racter of a violent inflammation of the lungs, but without any COM.
pliestiod, and hitherto without any appearance of any symptom
foreign to this disorder.
Yesterday evening, which was the beginning of the fifth day,
his Majesty was again blooded. He desired to receive the sacra-
ment, not from uneasiness, but not to defer longer giving to his
people this public 'proof of his profound sense of his religious
duties, and of his zeal in fulfilling them. After this solemn act,
which tool• place on the 13th, in the morning, in the presence of
ail the members of the Imperial family ; a strong perspiration en.
sued, which afforded hit Majesty much relief, and which the
physicians considered as a favourable crisis in the regular progress
of the malady. They agreed that the situation of the august pa-
tient had improved since the day before, and expect, unless some-
thing unforeseen should occur, that the disorder will go through
the regular period of seven, nine, or eleven days.
Postscript, March 14, eight o'clock, p. m.—l hasten to give you
the consolatory news that, in a consultation which has just taken
I place, the physicians of his Majesty have declared that this day
finished in as favourable a manner as could be expected under
° the circumstances. His Majesty has passed the whole day in a
profuse perspiration, anti his breast is considerably relieved. Their
unanimous opinion is, that it is impossible for a patient to be in
a more favourable situation than the Emperor. after the sth day, o
so serious a disorder. Yesterday public prayers were ordered in all
the churches of the city and suburbs, for the preservation of the
beloved father of the country, and they have continued the whole of
to-day. All the theatres have been closed.
PARIS, MMtCR 22.
The Gazelle Chlrersclle of Lyons continues to give its corre-
spondence relative to Russia.
" Our correspondent," it says, " assures us that all the docu-
ments relative to the conspiracy have proved the consolatory truth
that the nation and the army are happily still free from that spirit
of vertigo, the result of a half and too rapid civilization, which has
raised the pride and turned the heads of some noblemen and young
persons.

" Kuchelbecker, one of the principal chiefs, who had fled In the
disguise of &beggar, was one of the editors of the Journal Liberal,
of St. Petersburgh. He had been previously dismissed from various
situations, both in the military and civil service.
" As soon," says our correspondent, "as news Way received of
the expected arrival of the Duke of Wellington, provided with
unlimited powers, everything remained in a state of stagnation,
and the result of his negotiation is looked fin'.
" The severe cold which has prevailed in Moldavia, and in the
southern part of the Empire, have put an end to all alarms about
the plague. On the first report of its progress on the hank of the
Danube, the General commanding in chief in the North hastily
caused some troops to advance, to double the cordon ranilaire, and
as this happened at the same time as the arrests, it gives rise to all
the reports of the invasions which have circulated for this month
past."
" What our correspondent says of the pupils of the Jesuits is
worthy of reflection, and replies to many declamatior.s. A remark
analogous to this has been made with respect to the revolution in
general ; neither the Jesuits nor their pupils were concerned."
General Count Cuilleminot arrived yesterday at Paris from Con.
stanticople.
