LONDON.
THURSDAY EVENING, AUGUST 18, 1825.

The French Papers of Monday arrived last

night, and contain some intelligence from the
Morea, under date of Leghorn, August 3 ; ex-
tracts, however, will be found in another column.
The KING'S Ordinance, relative to St. Domingo,
has imparted unmixed satisfaction to the people
of Rouen, who begin already to look for the re-
establishment of the ancient commercial relations
with that Island.—The Pilot says, that the
troops destined for the Expedition to the Ha-
vannah are still confined in their caserns, and
disarmed ; their Officers have been obliged to
inform the Government of the danger of forcing
them US sea. The Council of Castile is occupied
on the affairs of re-establishing the Inquisition.
An Express, with the Etoile of Tuesday and
Wednesday, arrived from Paris at a very late
hour this morning. There is, however, no news
of any moment in it, except the account from
Constantinople, which we had previously ex-
tracted
from the Allgemeine Zeitung, and which
will be found below.

The Duke of W ELLINGTON, his son, and suite,
are arrived in Paris.

The Allgemeine Zeitung of the 11th August,
came to hand this morning. It has accounts from
Constantinople up to the 21st July, extracted
from the Austridn Observer of the 6th August,
but they contain nothing new. By them, how-
ever, our previous intelligence of the repulse of
IBRAHIM PAcuA. before Napoli di Romania, and
his retreat upon Tripolizza is confirmed. These
letters say nothing relative to the capture of the
Turkish General ; indeed, this inform'ation clearly
appears to have been incorrect. This account says,
" On the 25th of June, Ibrahim, with an escort of 80 horse,
advanced to the gates of Napoli-di-Romania, whether merely
to reconnoitre, or depending on some secret understanding in
the town is not known. A part of his van-guard appeared
about the same time before the Mills to make them_

The accounts from Leghorn in the Nren

it is not at all probable, that after IBaAni°111:40

• It would thus appear that the sovereignty of
the island de facto was in the republic,• but
Perhaps de jure, in the French King, a right, be
it observed, resting upon the same title as that of
the Republic, viz, the right of conquest. For this
island was first a colony of Spain,and subsequently
divided between that State and France; in 1795
the Spaniards ceded their part to the French. It
Was in 1791 the before-mentioned revolution com-
menced. In 1809, however, the French were
-6°ally expelled by the Spaniards, assisted by the
British, from the East part of the Island; and in
• I .1814 the whole of it was formally ceded to Spain.
The de jure sovereignty of the French KING was
'then at the utmost, but over a small portion of
:the island, the residue being in the King of
;SPA-IN,• and thus the value of the Ordinance
,13f CIIARLES X. to the Black Republic, as
conferiing the right of sovereignty upon its
citizens may be easily. stated. If CitAttrAs X.
is entitled to receive six millions for his share of
.the Island, how much is due to FERDINAND of
Spain for his. This is a common question in the rule
*44 three, which we will leave the F,toile to solve.
,Ttie only operation, therefore, which. can be given
to the Ordinance in question must be that of full
"d unlimited recognition, or the French Go-
:verement must submit to the charge of having
..defrauded the citizens of Hayti.
