FRENCH AND GERMAN PAPERS.

Perr.nsauncitr, MAY 31.—The Imperial Gun&
have received orders to return to the capital. It
appear,;, thcrefize, certain, that the.differences be-
tween our Court and the Porte are arranged, the
Porte has yielded the two principal points of our
Ultimatum; us to the others our Court has made
some coins salon,. If war hail tacit place, the cam-
paign could not have been opened bcfbre the harvest,
and it would have cost immense sums in a devastated
country.
SEMLIN, Justr. 3.-.-We have accounts front Pt-
toglit to the 23.1 of May, by the way of Belgrade..
Macedonia is still in cousternation, and disturbed.
Considerable Ottoman forces are marching towards
Larissa. The English agent, have succeeded, it is
said, in inducing the Sulimes and the Albanians to
submit to Choursehid Paella. The latter will en-
deavour to effect a junction with the Paella of Salo-
nica, and to penetrate with him by Livadia into
the Mores. If miracles do not take place, the
Greeks witl be overcame. It is also the case in the
Marine, that English officers direct the operations
of the Ottoman fleet.
LEIPme, JUNE B.—Aecounta from Constantino-
ple, Vienna, and other places, continue to affirm
• that peace will nut be interrupted, and yet calm and
la:Hating men are not inclined to credit these re-
ports, which take the appearanco for the reality, and
consider an arrangement with the Turks as easy a
mutter as with a Christian Power. There are many
persons, too, who cannot reconcile themselves to the
idea, that a Holy Alliance, said to be established on
the fundamental principles of Christianity, can
abandan Christians to the fury of the Turks, as this
would be wholly at variance with the first duties of
the Christian religion. Since the fair, an almost
incredible stagnation in trade has taken place. The
prices of corn continue to fall, and though the pros-
peet of the next harvest is very good, this expecta-
tion may be disappointed. We have nut had a drop
of rain for this finanight past, the sky has been con-
stantly, with east and north-e ist winds. The
drought is very great, and tha suconce corn Legit:;
to suffer by it. Even the winter corn on high gaudy
ground begins to turn tvllite. The but wcuther bus
also caused several eases of sudden death.
PENA, MAY 6.—The Reis Effendi (Minister for
Foreign Affairs) is always a Nltisselman; but this
Minister too laut-L to chnvers..: tu a Euro-
pean language with the aaAlbu.ulurit of foreign p. w-

ers, and it is for this reason that these ambassadors
always treat with the chief dragoman of the Porte,
who may be considered as the Secretary of State for
Foreign Affairs. Mr. Aristarchi, who, acting in
this capwity, had constantly protracted the negocia-
tions, is a very able and subtle Greek; but it was
hoped that means had been found to interest him
personally in the success of the negociations. His
dismissal, therefore, was received with regret, and
great apprehension was entertained, when it was
found that the new dragoman was a Greek renegade,
who embraced Mahometi,in SO years ago.

The first time that the European dragomans eon.
rented with him, he said, " that the affairs of the
Franks, when treated by a Mussulman, would go on
much better than by the intervention of a Greek."
A few days after, Jahia (this is his name) declared
to the dragoman of Lord Strangford, that he was
charged by the Reis Effendi to open himself without
reserve to the English legation, and to make known
the final resolution of the Porte. The Grand Seignor
said he was not desirous of war either with the
Muscovites or with any other powers of the Wtzt,
though the Sublime Porte does not fear any we:,
and with the aid of the great Prophet, the Mussui-
man arms would always triumph in the cud. The
Porte will therefore do any thing requisite to avoid
a rupture. The good friend of the Porte, the Eng-
lish ambassador, has asked of the Reis Effendi an
answer to his representations; the minister has
asked the orders of the Grand Vizir, and then: can
Le nu doubt that this ansiver is calculated to satisfy
the good friends of the Porte.
On the ViLli of April this answer of the Reis
Effoldi was delivered to the ambussadors of Great
Britain and Austria; its contents, however, were
not so satisfl.ctory as had been represented. The
dragoman of Lord Strangfard bud then another
conference of JuLia, who, with great frankness, gave
all the explanations that were required of him. It
is since this that it is hoped a new Russian legation
wig soon erriva at Constantieople.
Bitany (Gat-tacit), JUNE 5 —The last direct
accounts front Jassy announce a new organization of
the province of Moldavia, civil and military, which
was shortly to arrive front Constantinople, and to be
introduced into Wallachia as well as Moldavia, by
special delegates from the Porte. The supetior au-
thority, it is said, will be exercised in each province
by a Governor, who is not, however, to make any
arrangement of importance without consulting a
council. Under this arrangement, Moldavia and
‘Vallachiu would have nothing to complain of; but,
unfortunately, there is another arrangement which
will probably be a source of much unhappiness to
the inhabitants, anti will paralyse all the ,frood to be
duce by the administration. Theme is to Le in each
province a corps of Janissaries, commanded by an
Aga, who will, it is true, reeciva his orders from the
Govern:tient, but who will be at the same time sub-
. ordinate to the superior chictii of the Janissaries, at
Constantinople. Under these circumstances, the
two Agas will, in reality, govern the two principa-
lities, iu the name of the Governors, as the Air.,
will dispose of all the forces, and the Goveraors will
hove no direct influence over the troops. It appears,
however, that there are sail obstacles to this arrange-
ment. No change has yet taken place in the situ-
ation of the two principalities, and it is certain that
the departure of the Turkish troops is indefinitely
adjourned. Tu all appearance the Porte will issue
no definitive orders upon this subject.

ARMY AND NAVY PENSIONS BILL.—The Earl of 1.1-
V Ell POOl. proposal the seeoad reading oldie Anny and Navy
Pensions Bill, and stated the object of the measure.—lle said
the question hail been fully stated in the House of Commons,
and it was unnecessary to go into minute details. The House
would dud the measure an equitable arrangement hr the good of
the tuuntry.—lt would equalize the public burden for 43 years,
and fall lighter on the country at that period. It was not un-
fairly shifting the burden on posterity—because at the end of 45
years it ivotild stand exactly as it tlidnow. When the subject was

st was thought fait to make the annuities extend to 45 years, and
hie interest was calculated upon terms favourable to the public
flaring stated the general (loads, he observed, that no man who
tii.eti at the state of the country could avoid wishing a reduction
of the national debt, and also a reduction id taxation pro tomato;
but with respect to the distresses of agriculture, he did not believe
a repeal of agricultural taxes would answer any good whatever.
I o Wight betietit one class, but it a ould add to thetlifticulties of tithe!
claaists. Ile wished the House and the country not to be deluded
by the sty that reduction of taxation would reduce agricultural
distress. That which removal the public from an artititial to a
natural state of things, mutt benefit the public. The gradual
reduction of the national debt could only afford permanent and
certain Julia to the country. The noble Earl concluthal by
niovitig the second reading of the bill.
Chu Marquis of LANSLX/Vs'NE said he could not withhold
his asseitt to the general object of a measure, which would cer-
tainly produce mime relief to the blotto:to of the country, at the
txptnee of increasing the debt to be paid by posterity. The
lan had stated with confidence inivoinhy his great mind, that
the theitaure did not cast an uthlitiorial buttlien on pusterity.—
AVltitt, in fact, did they create by the bill? They created OD one
Land a set of comnitasioners and trustees, whose duty it was to
buy and sell debt. In that part of the city of London where the
stuck was sold, called the maiket, the criminality was liable to
floctuation, increase and depression, The commissioners and
nuances had an illtetk at in operating in a way that nmat Injure
the public, and ultimately a loss mum fall on posterity. the
noble Katt had argued, that a liatever might be absorbed by the
nit astire %utill revert again to the country, but that protataition
he could not give his wised. Having reverted to the negotiation
tot the tent:wet of the Batik charter, he declared that lie should be
liappy to hear that project was abandoned, because the govern-
tient had made a most improvident bargain.
The Elul of I.AUDEItDAI.E soma., hal the bill, and admittee
