LATEST FOREIGN NEWS.

FRANCE.

We find nothing worth extracting in the original
columns of the Paris journals either on the East-
ern question or on any other subject. Some of the
journals have no leading article. The Constitution-
nel has a notice by its chief editor of the circular
of Count Nesselrode, but M. Granier de Cassagnac
had left nothing to do for another commentator.
The Assembles Nationale continues to assert that
the note has a pacific tendency, and has full confi-
dence that the efforts which are making to prevent
war will be successful.
The Council of State sat yesterday for the dis-
patch of general business. Amongst the subjects
which came before it for consideration was the draft
of a decree according to the Lyons to St. Etienne
Railway Company, and the coal company of Cha-
zotte and Sorbier, the concession of a branch line
to connect the coal-pits with the St. Etienne Rail-
way; also, a decree authorising certain modifica-
tions in the statutes of the religious associations of
the ladies of Ste. Marie de la Providence, esta-
blished at Saintes ; also another, to authorise the
association of the Faithful Sisters of the Society of
Jesus, established at Paris, to found branch socie-
ties at Nantes and Amiens ; and, lastly, the
draft of a decree sanctioning certain modifications
in the St. Germain Railway Company.

Count Eugene de Germagnano, Lieutenant-
General in the service of the King of Sardinia,
has received the cross of officer of the Legion of
Honour from the hands of the Emperor.
The Moniteur announces various changes in the
magistrature, and also the presentation of the
military medal and nomination to the Legion of
Honour of numerous officers and private soldiers.
A telegraphic dispatch has been received, an-
nouncing the arrival of the Minister of Marine at
Lorient, where he debarked amidst cries of " Vive
I'Empereur." He afterwards reviewed the troops
stationed there.

The members of the Spanish Embassy in Pars,
with M. de Quinones, Marquis de San Car'
Charge d'Affaires, at their head, proceedel
Wednesday to Malmaison to pay an official vi
to the Queen-Mother, Maria Christina. Marshal
Narvaez had, previous to the reception of
the Spanish diplomatic staff, a very long and
private conference with the Queen-Mother. On
leaving the Royal presence it was remarked
that the Marshal appeared very well satisfied with
the result of his interview, so far as we may judge
by physigonomy, and this with Narvaez is not
difficult, as his features easily betray his thoughts,
whether those thoughts be pleasing or otherwise.
It is, therefore, taken for granted that the recon-
ciliation is now complete between those personages,
for which the Duke of Rianzares had very adroitly
prepared the way.
A considerable advance was made yesterday at
the Bourse towards recovering from the late de-
pression, and at the close of business an improve-
ment of about 1 per cent. had taken place. Final

Proved 20f., being last quoted at 760 f. A general

business also being more active than has been the
ease lately. Closing prices :—Northern, 855.25 f. ;
Paris and Orleans, 1,085 f. ; Paris and Strasbourg,
007.75 f. ; Paris and Lyons, 907 f. • Paris and

TURKEY AND RUSSIA.
Accounts from Constantinople of the 4th July
State that the situation remains unaltered. TI,
French Colonel, Magnan, who is now in the Sul-
-2.11'8 service, has left the capital for Shumla. The
•"-ungarian, Kossta, has provisionally been handed
over to the Austrian consul at Smyrna.
The combined fleets are still at Besika Bay,
where they had received a visit from the principal
inhabitants of Constantinople. The necessary
steam power for towing the 38 vessels being at Be-
sika, it was calculated that the whole could arrive
at Constantinople in 29 hours. The armaments are
still being actively continued. An army of 80,000
men has been concentrated at Erzeroum. A strong
garrison has been placed at Batun.
A letter from Constantinople of the 30th ult., in
the Independance of Brussels, says :

" Rather serious disturbances have broken out at
Adrianople and in some parts of the province of Ismidt,
near Constantinople. At Kaboussel, Adabazar, and
Arash the Christians have been molested, and the Go-
vernor has been compelled to adopt strong measures to
prevent popular effervescence. The events at Smyrna
,„'we caused great sensation. Ali Pacha, the
• "."eribar, has been dismissed. Tae Porte at first
merely displaced him, and appointed him Gover-
nor of Rhodes ; but M. Bruck insisted on his
dismissal, and the Porte gave way. It appears
that the conduct of Ali Paella, was not free from blame.
The Austrians say that for two months their Consul had
demanded the extradition of M. Kossta, whose name is

°ll the list of reiiiiees, who according to the convention
With Count Leiningen aro not to reside in the Ottoman
rnpire. Pacha is replaced at Smyrna by Ismail-
M. de Bruck has presented to the Porte a note
demanding the expulsion of all refugees in Turkey, who
41.0 subjects of Austria."
The Debats corrects in these terms a mistake it
llade with respect to the date of the last Russian
eireular, in stating that it was the 20th of June
new style :
"We hasten to make an important correction. The
circular bears the date of the 20th June, according to
the Russian calendar, that is to say, the 2d July for
,„
estern Europe. What led us into error was that we
believed that this dispatch was known to the English
Cabinet before the sitting of the House of Commons of
the Bth July, on which day the motion of Mr. Layard
Nslts to have been discussed, but of which Lord Palmer.ston obtained the postponement. At bottom, that was
the important point in the discussion of dates ; and,
Whilst admitting that we were mistaken as to the date,
We think we can maintain that the English Cabinet
knew the substance and the principal argument of the
dispatch before the sitting of the Bth July.'
The appearance of the combined French and
English squadrons at Besika Bay is, says the Con-
stttutionnel, most imposing. This bay, situated on
the coast of Asia, at the entrance of the Darda-
nelles, is large and deep, and it is not improbable
that it contained the thousand vessels which bore
the Greeks before the walls of Troy. Our modern
vessels, less numerous, but more formidable, form
a-
long ine opposite the plain along which the petu-
lant Achilles dragged the body of Hector at the
tail of his chariot. The French vessels are at the
Bayard
of the line, the headmost ship being the
-uayard of 90 guns. Between the ships of the line
and the shore are ranged the smaller sailing vessels
and the steamers. At first the French squadron,
although superior to the English in ships of the
line i
' and guns, was inferior in steamers, but the
forcel n that particular has been since equalised by
the arrival of the Gomer and four other large
steamers.

•differ All the difficulty which the

term between the note of can serve as the middle
the 19th May, and
the Count de Nesselrode of
Reschid Pacha. It will be ZP.IY made to it by
this point, however, as the preuraszre

sues the same object, and as the lailngn
of con-
ciliation has been listened to betweeliel
France. General Count Giulai, our new

Austria has not armed, notwithstanding the
the
threatening appearance of things, because she
wished to prove how much confidence she had hi
her ally of the North, but she has reserved to her-
Tilf to act according to her ideas in case her good
offiees should be rejected."
The Wanderer of Vienna contains a letter from
Constantinople of the 27th ult., which says :—" A
corps of observation has been dispatched to Bat-
tum, whence it can in ten hours be in Circassia for
military operations. A part of the English fleet
is to proceed to Battum to support its operations."
A letter from Vienna, of the 10th, in the Ger-
man Journal of Frankfort, says :—" A great num-
ber of Russians, who were residing here, have set
off for St. Petersburgh, in consequence of the impe-
rial ukase, which enjoins all Russian subjects to
return to their country every two years, and pass
three months there, under pain of having their pro-
perty confiscated. The presence of Count de Reich-
-1 erg in this city has for object, it is said, the or-
ganisation of Lombardy, and to have a decision
come to concerning the property which has been
sequestrated. The investigation instituted relative
to the insurrection of Milan, is terminated. It
has been proved that the insurgents were almost
all of a low rank in life, and had received from tle
agents of Mazzini and Kossuth proclamations,
money, and poniards. In addition, they were given
to understand that in case of their succeeding, de-
posits of arms were ready for them. The muskets
taken were almost all of American manufacture."
A letter from Odessa, of the 2d, in the New
Gazette of Prussia, says :—" I hasten to announce
to you that a proposition for a mediation of
Austria, supported by France, appears likely to be
approved of by the Emperor Nicholas. Reschid
Pacha will sign the ultimatum as the Emperor
desires, and the just demands of Russia will thereby
be satisfied. On the other hand, the Emperor,
on the proposition of France, which is really en-
deavouring to maintain peace, will transmit to the
Porte, in reply, a note, declaring that Russia has
no intention to make the domment f igned by
Reschid Pacha serve for any intervention whatever
