the opening of June, a Convention, by which he

receive succour in the space of three months; and
the Greeks promised, on their part, to furnish
during this petiod the necessary subsistence for the

particulars: but the general opinion is, that they
are merely intended to alarm our neighbours, the
Spaniard., since so far them is nothing that in-
dicates the entrance of the troops of the pretended
Sanitary Condon into Spina, whose number would
not suffice to occupy Gutpuscoa. The French eel-
diets, besides, are not animated with any eagerness
to make part of an expedition of this description.

GERMAN PAPERS.

NURENSIRG. armless' 18.
The remarkable affair of the inerchairt Funk is
not finished by the rejection of his appeal to the
Court of Cessation. For the opinion of the Minis-
try of Justice must now be laid before the King
for his confirmation. It would be improper in any
way to anticipate the royal resolution. As little
can it be doubted that this resolution will not be
given without minutely investigating the affair from
the beginning, and maturely weighing it. It may
be also taken for granted, that if, in this investiga.
lion, a suspicion should arise that the calving judi-
cial forms had not served for the defence of right
and of civil security, but may have been abused
to the suppression of truth, and the persecution of
innocence, it is not only in the power, but also the
attribute of the head of the State, to refuse his
sanction, and to order previously the must strict
ion of the proceedings. Aleautime this affair
has led to the tenting of a remarkable circular note
from the Minister of Police to all the Governments
of the Rhenish provinces. This note aye in sub.
stance, that se it unfortunately appears from the
printed reports of the proceedings in the trial of
M. Fonk, that there is reason to apprehend that
in order to discover crimes and criminals, not
only persons of the most suspicious character are
employed, but with them even police officers, that
they ha►e used for this purpose the most objection-
able measures—the secret police means, io the most
scandalous manner ; the respective Governments
are therefore called upon strictly to watch for the
prevention of such offensive proceedings, Ike. and the
police at Cologne is at the same time ordered to call
to account the 'Counsellor of Police, Guisez, and
the Inspector of Police, Schoning, for their conduct
in the cause of M. Fonk, and to send the docu-
ments to the Minister.

habitants of Tret•ea in l'av,ur of the unfo►tunate
man. It even pretends that some petsons have of-
fered to give positive evidence against him. This
account, however, seems to be written by some
angry adversary of Fonk..; for why should the King
be displeased at a well-meant petition ?—why should
two witnesses come forward so late, if they could
say any thing to elucidate the troth before ? The
very remarkable circular rescript which we hate
quoted, does not seem well to accord with this ac-
count from Traces.
