LONDON, SATURDAY, M•Y 20, MC

The French Papers to the 18th bare arrived. In the
Bitting of the French Chamber of Deputies, en the 17th
May, Vitts Ls, who, since the procession of the 941 May.
was said to have successfully opposed the re-establishment

of the censorship in the dounCil of Ministers, expressed
himself in terms which did not by sty means warrant the
reports concerning his opinions on the subject.

The intelligence from Constantinople, given in the
Cotreriee Francais, if authentic, shows, in the most de-
cided manner, that our views on the subject of the Russian
negotiations were perfectly correct. The concurrence of
the other Powers in the requisitions of Russia is evidently
implied in the answer given by the Porte.
We subjoin the following extracts relative to the affairs
of Turkey :
Mom the Male, dated May 181 1
The Milan Gazette of the 9th May has the following article,
under the head of " The lonise Islands t"—
A Greek vessel, which arrived at Corfu on the 26th AprU
brought the news of the fall of bllssolonghi, which took piece on
the 23d of the same month (Palm Sunday. according to theiGreek
Calendar), at day.brtak. The Government of the town, being
reduced to the last extremity, opened the gates, and the troop of
the Greeks opened itself a passage through the Ottomans. The
lacier had scarcely entered the town, when the mince which had
been prepared blew up, and the destruction was dreadful. We i
cupect the particulars of this event, which almost appears to be
undoubted.
Duenratere, A MIL 26.
According to the last amounts from Constantinople, tlatedtrte
20th, which stave been brought by oduriers, the Reis Effendi has
replied by a formal refusal to the proposals of Mr. Stratford Can-
ning in favour of the Greeks.
Private letters add, that the English Ambassador, on his return 11
from his conference on this subject with the Reis Effendi, bad been i
insulted by the Turkish populace, who had collected In the
streets.

As for M. 31intiaeky. it is 000sidered se certain that in case of a
formal refusal, in answer to the Ultimatum presented by him, he
will quit Constantinople ooe day after the expiration of the six
weeks' delay given to the Porte. The Divan will hardly come to
& decisive resolution before that time.

On the 22d Count de Weinpfen, Captain in the Austrian service,
passed through this town, going express from Constantinople to
Vienna. His mission is thought to be of great importance.

PAIIIS, MAY 16.
A Journal seys—We are metered the new Commissioners

hare been appointed by the Ciereinment of Ilayti to come to
France. Among them is :11. Elie, Deputy from Pmtau-Prince
to the Chamber of Representatives, and one of the Secretaries of
that Aemembly.

Some Journals have spoken of recent news from Martinique,
representing that Colony as greatly agitated ; this is an error.
According to the letters of led) March (and there are mane of a
later date) we can positively germ that the tranquillity of Mard-
vague has not been for a moment interruptfrel.

The health of the Emperor of Austria daily improves. His
Majesty hiu resumed his usual occupations, ishi:h allow him but
little leisure. It were even to be wished that be would apply Use.

PAIRS, MAT le.
Every thing Indicates that homilities an on the point of com-
mencing between Russia and the Porte.

A private letter from Augsburg of 3th May. sari that at the date
of the latest news from Constantinople the Porte bad not officially
answered 31 de Alinziacky ; but the first verbs) answer of the
Reis Effendi was known, and its tenor shows that the Ottoman
Ministry is not destitute of adieus

" It is glad that the Emperor Nichols* does not confound in hie
ultimatum the question of the Greek rebels with the Porte ; that it
learns with pleasure that the Intervention of other Cabinets, which
for these five years has served only to fetter the negotiations with
Russia, has at length ceased; that the Porte, however, had fulfilled
its treatioe respecting Moldavia and Wallachia, since 3sO police
guards cannot be called a military occupation; that the Porte eon•
sequently hoped that Russia on tie part would no longer delay to
give up to the Turks the fortresses of Ilessarabia, the restitution
of which was stipulated by the peace of 1812."
It is not doubted that as soon as this answer is known at Peters-
burgh, it will lead to an order to pus the Pruth ; the Porte seems to
expect this, for a firman has already been issued, giving orders to
provision the fortresees on the Danube for six months. The 20th of
May is generally assigned as the day when the Russian troops
will enter the principalities.

As none of our contemporaries appear to have received
the official accounts of the capture of Chiloe, of which we
gave an abstract yesterday, exclusively, it may be acceptable
to some of our readers to see au account of the different
Articles of the Treaty, of which we have subjoined a
translation :

" 1. The province and archipelago of Chiloe, with the territory
which it includes, and which Is st present In the possession of the

We have received a mass of American papers to the
90th alt., but they contain no information of any import-
ance. The question of the Panama mission still continues
to occupy the attention of the American Legislature, with-
out being yet brought to a conclusion.

CITY, EITDAV EVENING.

The English Ihinds were heavy this morning, owing probably to
the quantity of Money Stock brought into the market, which. we
understand, has been principally caused by Insurance Companies
having occasioa I. sell, in consequence of subscribers, in many in.
stances where adivision of profits has been made, ;deferring to take
money rather than increase their interest in these establishments.

We bare heard that the Equitable Insurance Company has been
largely called upon, by reason of the subscribers to it requiring
money, owing to the general depression. Consols opened at 78, and
subsequently declined to 771. They afterward., however, rallied,
and left off at 76. The New Scrip went down to par. Exchequer
Bills were Be. 10s. Ba. premium.
Notwithstanding *the satisfactory Intelligence exclusively an•
nounced in the British Press of this morning, relative to South
American polities, still the securities of the New States somewhat
declined. Colombian Bonds were 42, sellers ; Mexican 6 per Cents.
62; and Buenos Ayrean Bonds, O. There were sellers of Russian
Bonds at 73, and of Old Spanish ditto at 8. In Greek Stocks there
were no transactio*, and In Shares nothing to remark upon.

Letters from Buenos Ayres, say that the Congress of the
New Union had assembled. M. Rivadavia, so long in this
country, had been chosen President, with a salary of twenty
thousand dollars per annum, and five Secretaries at the rate
of six thousand dollars per annum.
A gentleman, who has lately been through Staffordshire,
says, that the district of the Potteries has, comparatively
speaking, suffered very little during the recent stagnation
in trade. At the present moment many manufactories are
working full time, and several commercial travellers have
received very good orders, and found little difficulty in
getting money. The hat manufacture at Newcastle-under-
Lyne, almost the only branch carried on, is in a state of
stagnation; but various temporary causes may be assigned
for this fact. At Tunstall, Henley, and Shelton, a more
than usual activity has lately prevailed, to which the late
contest for the coronership of the northern district of Staf-
fordshire has added considerably,
