FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

PARIS, OCT. s.—lt was on the 29th ult. that
the King of Prussia, %rho travels incog. under the
name of Count Ruppin, entered Strasburg. The
august traveller alighted at the Cathedral, where
General Pamphile Lacroix, commandant of the
division, the Prefect, the Commandant of the de-
par.tment, and the Mayor, were presented to
him. After viewing that beautiful edifice, and
enjoying the' admirable prospect which Alsace
presents from the Tower, his Majesty proceeded
to the Temple of St. Thomas, to view the tomb
of Marshal Saxe. He then visited the pro-
menades of Broglie, Contades, Robertson, and
the Orangery, whence he repaired to the head-
quarters of the division. Being informed that
the Lieut.-General had assembled the principal
functionaries at a banquet to celebrate the anni-
versary of the birth of the Duke of Bourdeaux,
he was pleased to join the party, and gave the
following toast—" The King, the Duke of Bour-
deaux, the Royal Family, and all their faithful
servants." He afterwards visited the theatre,
and departed at six in the evening, expressing
his regret that he could not continue longer in
the city. The two Prussian Princes, Frederick
:William Lewis and Frederick Charles Alexander,
:were expected on the following day at Strasburg.
They keep at the distance of a day's journey
behind their august father, who intends to pass
through Switzerland, and to proceed by the way
.of Mont St. Gothard on the Simplon, to Italy.
It is believed that the Russian Minister Count
Capo d'lstria will pass through Strasburg, and
rake the same route to Italy as the King of
Yrussia.

Letters from Odessa state, that in the last
.conference between Lord Strangford and the
Kris Effendi, the latter insisted that Russia ought,
in fulfilment of treaties, to surrender the fortresses
in Asia. He also observed that the Porte would
not send a commissioner to negociate, and that it
was for Russia to disavow the conduct of Stro-
gonoff, and to send a new Minister. Lord Strang-
ford, it is said, takes a report of this conference
with him to Vienna.

M. de Chateaubriand is expected to set off to-
morrow for Verona.

A letter from Bordeaux, dated the Ist of Oc-
tober, states that a company of the train of artil-
lery had arrived there from Bayonne, and was to
proceed to Angouleme. It was expected to be
followed by a •corps of horse artillery, which
,ceases to form part of the Corps of Observation.
The Sieur Nadin, bookseller, having been tried
before the Tribunal of Correctional Police, for
publishing a seditious work, offensive to the
king and the Royal Family, called " Memoires
de Tchien-chean-li, a learned Mandarin," and
for exercising the trade of bookseller without a
brevet, was found guilty on the first charge, but
acquitted on the second. The law of 1814, how-
•ever, requires that booksellers should have
brevets, but inflicts no penalty for the want of
them. The prosecutor brought the case before
the Royal Court, which confirmed the judgment
of the. Correctional Tribunal. lle then appealed
to the Court of Cassation, The public Minister
,referred to a regulation of 1723, which inflicted
.a penalty of 500 francs on a bookseller trading'
without a brevet. In 1791 brevets were sup-
pressed, but the public Minister contended that
'the law of 1814, which re-established brevets,
virtually revived the regulation of 1723. The
,Court of Cassation agreed in this opinion, an-
nulled the. udgment of the Royal Court of Paris,
and referred the case ,to the Royal Court of
•Orleans.

It is already known, that the responsible
'Editor of the Courier des Spectacles has been
sentenced to two months imprisonment, and a
.fine of 300 francs, for having violated the
law .which interdicts Literary Journals from
touching on „politics. The Editor having up-
,pealed to the Royal Court, the judgment has
been confirmed.; but the sentence has been com-
muted to one month imprisonment only.
.The night before last, about ten o'clock, an
. Aurora Borealis was observed to the north of this capital. It at-
tracted the attention of great crowds, who stopped on the quays
and bridges to Observe.the phenomenon. The great heat gave
presage of a storm, .which broke out some hours after. At the
dawn of day the heavens were in a blaze ; the thunder and
lightning succeeded each other without interruption ; the rain
fell in torrents:; it was mixed..w•ith hail, which broke the win-
dows in many parts of the . city, and killed a great number of
lairds in the public gardens. We have heard. of no other mis-
chief:occasioned by the storm.

" MR. Eorron,--A letter from Constantinople, dated Sep-
tember 4, and written hy.a person 'worthy of credit, informs
me that the Tartar who brought to Constantinople the disas-
-•trous intelligence of the earthquake which caused so much ruin
.• at Aleppo, announced, at the same time, that the French Con-
sul and his interpreters fortunately escaped the disaster. I
trust, Sir, you will give publicity to this intelligence, which
Will remove from many families the dreadful disquietude under
which they must otherwise suffer.

" Accept, Sir, my respects, &c. &c.
" CAUSSIN de PERCEVAL, Jun."

It is evident that the Jacobin Journals are
exerting all their efforts to throw doubt upon the
.defeat and flight of their
_great General, Mina.
Could it be possible, in effect, that the redoubted
heroes of Sausculottistn fled before some batta-
lions of Aristocrats ; and that what happened in
Italy, under the illustrious William Pepe, has
been re-acted in Spain ?—(Le Drapeau Blanc.)

STOCKHOLM, SEPT., 2P.—ln the night of the 9th instant,
. several shocks of an earthquake were felt at Carlstadt.
His Majesty will not reach Christiana before the 27th. There
is a report that a proposal will be made in the Storthing to em-
ploy the money deposited in •tlie Bank to pay by anticipation
the debt to Denmark. Since the Ist of Sept. 1819, 900,000 rix
•dollars Hamburg Banco, of the Norwegian debt, have been
paid by instalments, so that there still remains 2,100,000 rix
dollars to pay. It is believed that the result of the negotia-
tions at Copenhagen will be the payment of this remainder of
1,750,000 rix dollars at the most; and it is probable that these
/negotiations are now terminated.

The Deputies of`the States of the Kingdom, who are in-
trusted with the ' revision of the public debts, had an audience
of his Majesty the day he set out for Norway, and received

from him the joyful information of the approaching marriage
of the Crown Prince.

COPENHAGEN, SEPT. 24.—0 n the 12th of this month,
there was a dreadful storm at, Aalborg, during which a shock
of an earthquake is said to have been felt in several places.

CitaisTlAN4a, SEPT. 20.—0 n the 19th, a Deputation, con-
sisting of nine Members of Extraordinary ,Storthing. wait-
ed on the assembled Members of the Norwegian Government,
announced that the Storthing had constituted itself according
to the regulations, and requested that the Sittings might be
opened by his Majesty. His Excellency Count Sandois,
Governor of Norway, then stated, that by a gracious rescript
from his Majesty, he was authorised to open the Storthing in
his Majesty's name, and that it should be done at noon the
following day. The opening of the Storthing was then so-
lemnly proclaimed by Heralds, according to custom.
HANOVER, SEPT. 23.—The anniversary of the great battle
of Leipsig will be kept this year on Sunday, Oct. 21.
On the 16th of this month, the village of Borkam, in the
district of Lemford, was almost entirely destroyed by fire ; the
church, the school, 137 houses, and 39 barns were destroyed.

Russia and Poland.

MuNrcir, SEPT. 25.—We learn the following particulars
of the arrival of our illustrious visitors at Tegernsee :—On the
3d of October the Empress of Austria willarrive from Salzburg
at Rosenheim, and proceed to Tegernsee the next day. On
the sth the Emperor Francis, and on the 7th the Emperor
Alexander, slept at Rosanheim, and will arrive the following
days respectively at Tegernsee, where the illustrious travellers
will remain only till the 10th of October. On the 11th the
King of Bavaria will return from Tegernsee to Nymphenburg.
SWITZERLAND, SEPT. 24.—The Queen of Sweden and
Prince Oscar arrived at Berne on the 13th. The Queen re-
turned to Paris, but the Prince proceeded on his journey to
Rome.

LEIpSIC, SEPT. 25.—Many letters have already arrived,
thinking the fair would begin this week. Among the strangers
are some Greek merchants, who have bespoken lodgings for se-
veral of their countrymen who are coming. This makes it sup-
posed that the cause of the Greeks is not so desperate as certain
Journals gave stated, and that the Greeks continue a struggle
which must be approved by GoD and man. The fate of the
Greeks continue to excite the greatest interest here anti else-
where, and their real or pretended defeats are listened to with a
degree of sorrow such as is adapted only to the loss of the most
sacred professions. Mankind are every where too much en-
lightened to approve of Turkish barbarities.—(Nurembugh
Correspondent, Sept. 28.)
