We are here indeed easy with rcpect to the continuance
of peace ; yet there are still symptoms of uneasiness among
the merchants. The Russian squadron, it is true, is in part
dismantled, but in such a manner that, in case of ne,d, it can
be ,zot ready for sea in a few days. The Russ: an troops in the
Crimea and in 13essarabia, have made a retrogadc
merit towards the interior of the country ; but their mos -s-
-mentS are very slow, and there are still numerous garrisons'
on the Dueister and the Prutb. The fortifications of Se-
bastopol, which may be already considered as impregnable,
are continued with grcai activity, while on the otlir hand
England and France seem to prosecute their extraordinary
naval armaments without interalmtion. In spite of this it
cannot be denied that Rrussia ig
actuated by a very conci-
liatory spirit., and has already, ant; not without success-,
taken many steps to arrange the still disputed points rela-
tive to the affairs of the East, and that th., jealousy of the
maritime powers, though it makes a closer approximation
difficult, does not render it impossible.
The Greek Ambassador has come into an unpleasant
collision with the Porte, the latter having ordered that all
ships entering the Porte under the Gioek flag, shall hence-
forth be searched. As this is contrary
,to the treaty of
Adrianople, the Greek Ambassador is warmly supported by
the Representatives of the Powers that are the protectors
of Greece, in his endeavours to induce the Porte to revoke this
order. The cause of this unpleasant affair' was the
attempt of a Greek captain who endeavoured to defraud
the Turkish Customs by concealing a large quarstCy of
soap. It is hoped that the affair will soon be arranged,. and
that the Porte will give way. Admiral Roussin has re-
ceived the Grand Cross of the Legion of Honour for his
services. _ .

Some cases of plague have occurred nea7 Byjukicre ;
there have likewise been some cases in Alexandria, Cairo,
and on board the Egyptian fleet. Mehcmit Ali is
gone to Upper Egypt, and is said to be much cast down.
Since all his attempts in Hedjaz have failed, and the beha-
viour of France and England towards him has so remarkably
changed, be seems no longer to yield to the influence of
those Powers, but to endeavour to approximate to the
Porte.

BllussEr.s, MAY I.—M. Charles L. Matens ha.i. an
audience of his Majesty on Wedneslay, and sat out on
Friday with despatches for Vienna, where he is attached to
the Belgian Legation.
• The persons who signed a petition at. Liege, requesting-
Oat the iron railroad might pass near that c;ty, met again
on the 296, and appointed Commissioners to go to Brussels
to support the prayer of the petition.
We learn that General Husel, on his late visit to the Camp
at Beverlo, fixed on the spot for a camp of fifteen squadrons of
cavalry, which he has chosen behind the right of the line for
the infantry barucks, which arc already completed for twenty-
four battalions. It is not true, therefore, that the camp of
Bcvcrloo nill be advanced this year nearer to the causeway
from Hasselt to Bois le Due. . . .
