PARIS, DEC. 22.—A letter from Athens of the 21st
November, says—" There is a fresh insurrection is Mrs-
sinia. For some weeks past all persons connected with the
Government, or who have only declared in its favour, hove
been expelled, but now hostilities are no longer doubtful,
There are above 1,500 men in the field.

. " The Mainottes have distinguished themselves in the
same manner, and have begun by. taking prisnnen; a de-
tachment of Bavarians, who were surprised drinking, away
from their post. They were shut up in a Pyrgo, under a
strong guard, and will not be returned without a large ran-
The officer is treated like the soldiers.

" Here everything is in the most complete confusion.
Nobody is paid, there is nothing in the public collars. The
Bavarians do all they can to enrich themselves amidst the
general distress, and to complete the spoliation of Greece.
By way of beginning they pay none of those who have con•
tracted for the. supply of their troops.
" You will, therefore not be surprised to hear that all
those houses are in a state of embarrassment, and that
bankruptcies are inevitable. At Syra, Patras, Hydra,
Napoli, and here, the greater part of the merchants are
packing up.. The marine is reduced to the lowest degree
of n ullity."—Courlier Francais.

The Minister of War, and a great number of Generals,
met this morning at the residence of the Duke of Orleans.
We hear from Toulon, that several regiments, in-
tended, doubtless, for Africa, bad
,received 0rt1e...-s to ap-
proach that port.

(From the French papers,)
The Duke de Nemours is expected to-day at the Tuille-
ries. The Duke of Orleans and the Prince de Joinvilla
went yesterday as far as Fontainebleau to meet the Prince,
and were to sleep there last night.
The number of deputies who have arrived, or are resi-
dent in Paris, amounts to 194.

By a Royal ordinance, dated 201 h inst., a Court martial
is to be assembled at Toulon, for the trial of Captain Qum-
nel, of the Jupiter (stationed on the coast of Africa), for
disobedience to his superior officer.
Extract of a letter of the 17th instant from Toulon :
" The Duke de Nemours landed this morning, under
a salute from all the vessels in the roadstead ; and, har-
ing reviewed the garrison troops, entered his carriage.
The three fine Arabian horses presented to the Prince
were also landed this morning, and sent off to Paris. The
greater part of his Royal Highness's baggage fell into the
hands of the enemy. Youssouf Bey was still more unfortu-
nate, for he lost everything.. Despatches have just arrived
from the Government for Marshal Clausel, and the steam_
packet the Phare sailed at four o'clock for Algiers. The
orders for the Marshal must be very urgent, as they have
have not been suffered to wait eighteen hours for the regu.
lar packet, which will sail to-morrow morning. We are
not aware of the nature of this hasty communication to the
Governor-General, but we fear it contains his rocal. We
are stir without news from Bona or Algiers, and there are
at present on the coast of Africa only the steam-vessels the
Crocodile, Styx, Brazier, and Castor, which are scarcely
sufficient for the colony. We have here the 82,1;ynx, Ful-
ton, Ramier, Papin, Cerbere, and Vautovr, You are
aware that, after having taken from the 7,,egion formed at
,Pau, for service in Spain, all the men. required to complete
the regiments of Chasseurs in Afr'.ca, the remainder were
formed into a battalion called the Tirailleurs
This battalion, which is compr,sed of the elite of our regi-
ments, arrived to-day at a village at the distance of a
league from Toulon. Some of the officers have already
come into the town, and it is said that the corps will em-
bark on Tuesday.

The whole commune of Pont St. Vincent, near Metz,
was thrown into the greatest consternation by the. appear-
ance in the streets of an enormous boar, whic)-, had come
across the Moselle. The women and d'.',tdren fled for
shelter to the houses, while the boldest the men seized'
their sithes, pitchforks, and other rust3' implements, and
endeavoured to bar the animal's passage. The boar, how-
ever, was, too powerful for his assailv.its, and after overthrow-
ing some of them, made his way },ack to the forest unhurt.
It appears, from official o.oraments, thut the Foundling
Hospital, which was estaUsllled in Paris in 1640, has, from
that period to the prey At time, received 496,644 children.
The greatest number, was in 1772 (when it amounted to
7,676); the small.est in 1795. After the Revolution the
number increasrA, but has decreased since 1830. During
the. year 1834 only 4,877 children were received.
The roc..ts which have been-inundated by the late floods
will not he re-opened for the passage of carts and carriages
before.the expiration of a week or ten days, the municipality
and. the directors of the bridges and roads being convinced
that the above space of time is required to harden the roads,
which have been completely saturated with water.
The Venice Gazette states, that the Theatre de la Fenici
was destroyed by fire on the 12th inst. This theatre was
the largest and finest in Italy, and was the work of the Ve-
netian architect Antonio Silva. The flames first broke out
about three o'clock, and in spite of every exertion made by
the authorities and the assembled citizens, nothing now
remains of this splendid monument except the exterior walls:
Fortunately, in consequence of the prompt exertions of the
firemen and others, the adjoining houses escaped the de-
vouring element. The cause of the conflagration is as yet
unknown.

It is said to have been decided that M. de Rudhard is to
replace Count d'Armansperg as Chancellor of Greece.
M. de Rudhard is considered a man of integrity and an able
and. constitutional statesman. It is thought that in the
:isercise of his new functions he will lean towards France
and England rather than towards Russia.
According to the Courrier du Commerce of Genoa, the
Russian Government has renewed the interdiction issued by
it several ye.ars ago, prohibiting all vessels from touching at
any port on the eastern shore of the Black Sea, except the
ports of Anapa and Regint Kale, where there are Boards of
Health.

The Constitutionnel gives the following extract of a letter
from St: Petersburgh :—" The discontent of the Emperor-
Nicholas towards his brother, the Grand Duke Michael, is
well known. The latter will not return to Russia,,, and his
wife has not been permitted to join him with het children.
The Princess leads the life of a recluse, as no une can visit
her without displeasing the Emperor. The cause of this
disagreement between the brothers is the inclination of the
Grand Duke for the Germans, the Emperor would
fain expel all foreigners from thir posts, and replace them
by Russians, who continually urge him to the conquest of
the East, and to a rupture %N:ith France and England. The
Emperor's health is not
to transact busine,ss yet re-established, but be continues
vitit his Minister Czchernichef. Count
Orlof is travetrny,
eThese two personages arc the con-
fidants of th
anti Czar. The Russian Ambassadors at Te-
heranl.he d L'onstantinople have received orders to arrange
I:del-awes between Persia aad the Porte, by threaten,
lr.g the intervention of Russian troops in the event of war,
thus keeping down the influence of England."
The following of the Ist instant, from Cracow, is from
thE. Conslitulionnel :—" The Jew merchants of this city
have received an account of an insurrectionary movement
at St. Petersburgh, in which the life of the Emperor was
attempted ; it was, however, quelled without any serious
result. Very few soldiers were concerned in it, but several.
officers, mostly foreigners. The majority of the Guards
and the Line were firm to their duty. In confirmation of
this account it may be stated that the military cordon on
the frontiers of Austria and Prussia has been tripled, so
that no one can pass. A Russian oilicer of high rank has
explained that this has been done to prevent the Grand
Duke Michael from entering the empire, and heading the.
insurgents. Our Senate will not assemble this year. Or-
ders have been given that greater severity shall be observed
in tl,e examination of the passports of the French and Eng-
lish than of any other travellers, and that no Pole who took
part in the affair of 1830 shall be allowed to enter Cracow
without special permission."
