PARIS PAPERS.

PARIS, Mancn 31.—1 t is believed, says the
Ruche &Aquitaine, that Berton is in some measure
concerned in the plot at La Rochelle. What is
certain is, that he has shewn himself at a fair
with seven others well armed, and endeavouring

to get new recruits.
-Telegraphic despatches from Toulon of the
26th and 28th of March announce the sailing from
that port of the Medea frigate, and the schooner
La Torche. The Medea, commanded by Cap-
tain Rigny, is going to the Levant to reinforce his
Majesty's squadron, after having cruised off vari-
ous parts of the coast of the Mediterranean. The
Torchel commanded by M. Dupelit Thouars, is
gone to Algiers and Bona, to protect the coral
fishery in those parts, where treaties give the
French vessels the right of pursuing that fishery.
The Echo de l'Orient complains, that in con-
travention of the concordat of 1801, attempts
have been made in the diocese of Rennes to re-
store the suppressed fetes, and instances those of
the Virgin Mary which were before united with
the Sunday, but during this year have been cele-
brated in the diocese on the day when they fall.
The clergy publicly announce them, the parish
,priests especially recommended the observance
of them to their flocks who are very docile,
labour is interrupted, and the silence of the civil
authorities induces new infringements of the law..
The name of the bishop is put forward to autho-
rize those innovations-; and it seems not to be
known that he alone has no right to change what
his supreme head has thought fit to establish,
which the rest of the French clergy observe,
probably, without resistance, and to which he is
'bound by a law of his country to submit. The
same journal mentions the still more blameable
conduct of an ecclesiastic at the head of a college,`
who suspends the studies of the youth on le
holidays thus illegally restored.
FRANKFORT, MARCH 26.—Prince Suzzo is still
under surveillance at Lemberg, the Austrian go-
vernment not having allowed him to prosecute
his journey. He has applied to the Court of St.
Petersburgh for'leave to return to Russia.
Private letters state that the late naval action
between the Turks and the Greeks, at the en-
trance of the Gulf of Lepanto, was very bloody,
and that the loss on both sides was immense.
The loss of the Turks is estimated at 25 ships of
war; but the'Greeks are said likewise to have
lost 16 ships of war.
The Vienna Court Gazette has just published
a numerous promotion in the Austrian army. It
is observed, that such promotions are generally
made on the eve of a war.
It is reported, that an important negotiation is
'on foot between the Courts of Berlin and Munich;
but this news needs confirmation.
AIX-LA•CHAPELLE, MARCH 27.--(From a
.Letter.)—A person worthy of credit sends us by
express from Frankfort the following details :
On the 25th, in the morning, the house of
'Rothschild, jun., received an express. An ex-
'iraordinary bustle was noticed in the trans 7
'actions with paper currency; the tickets of the'
•lottery of Rothschild immediately fell 3 per
'cent.: the other Austrian paper fell in pro-

portion.;
The house of Rothschild having, contrary to
its usual custom, observed profound silence on
'the contents of the despatches which it has re.
ceived, the most singular reports were in circu-
lation on 'Change ; and, the Magistrates of
Frankfort not having contradicted them, it was
generally believed by the merchants that the
courier bad brought news of the commencement
of hostilities between the Russians and the
Turks. 'On the same day (the 25th) the house
of Rothschild despatched couriers to different
capitals.
Letters from Odessa, from a respectable quer-
, ter, which we have also. received express, state,
that in consequence of orders from St. Peters-
,burgh, great preparations were making at Odessa
to receive the Emperor and Empress Dowager.
These 'letters give no further information of ulte-
rior movements of the Russian armies ; only
'they say that the Generals-in-Chief have lately
received sealed orders, the contents of which will
probably be known when the Emperor arrives.
VIENNA, MARCH 23.—After the arrival of the
courier from Constantinople, the conferences.
with M. de Tatischef ended in the dispatching
.of another courier for the Turkish capital, with
•a note, it is said, in which Austria insists for the
last time on the necessity of a decisive answer.
IL de Tatischef will wait here for the answer,
which may be expected about the 20th of April.

:The noted Sir GREGOR MACGREGOR, having
failed to establish himself as an Inca in New
Granada, has started a new scheme, and ,put
forth a flaniim.Proclamation,- in which he states
that the King of the Mosquito nation has be-
stowed upon him and his heirs the territory of
•Poyais, adjoining to the provinces of Honduras
and Nicaragua, of which he styles himself his
highness the Cacique, and forms a plan for its
settlement and cultivation, " intending there to
spend the remainder of his days;" This sym-
pathy for a secluded portion of the American
continent is certainly highly ,praiseworthy in
the enterprising Cacique, and as long as the
object in view was merely to bestow the benefits
of civilizatio►► on the aborigines of Poyais, no one
would ever have questioned the (right of the
Mosquito Chief to bestow principalities on whom
he thought proper ; but, unfortunately, the Pro-
clamation is followed by the, printed -" Regula-
tions of the Poyais Land Office, in Edinburgh,"
In which the public are told that the price of
-these lands is now one shilling per acre ; but if
,people do not hasten to make purchases, it will
be advanced, " particularly, if certain circum-
-,,stances, now in a state of progress, take place."
