FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

PARIS, SEPT. B. The following has been
written from Poitiers on the 7th of September :

" Among the passages which have produced the greatest
effect in the speech of M. the Procureur-General, is that in
which he alludes to the sentences of death pronounced by the
Cazbonari. It was known in the town that 31. 31angin had
received one of those arrests pronounced dans la Haute Vente
alta vendita). Some persons who have seen this placard,
emanating from the Philanthropic Society of the Carbonari,
are assured that it bears all the mystical signs which are to be
found in the placards of Westphalia. Deaths beads and
crbssed poignards are the attributeaof this society ; we find it
also written-..' The blood of those whom you pursue wiU re-
' coil upon you.; an invisible but always extended hand is
ready to strike-you !' If such menaces were not odious they
would appear ridiculous. The invisible but always present
arid ready bands were admirable cautions in those barbarous
times, when each individual was supposed to be subject to his
separate meed of justice, but_ in our days honest people enter-
tain no such fear, and.rebels only oppose themselves to the ge-
neral law. They wish to weaken the energies of those afpo are
the organ of the laws, because they fear every thing which is
calculated to maintain social.order. The speech of the Pro.,
cureur-General proves that a Decree De la Haute Vente doep
not intimidate him."—(La Quotidienne.)

A letter from Bayonne, dated 'the 29th of Au-
gust, states as follows:
You have of course seen the bulletins circulated by the
Liberals, and which state that the Trappist has been earn-,
pletely defeated. This account is totally false, because we
have this moment received an official account of the entry of
this Chief on,the 25th, into Ochagavia, at the head of I,Boo'
men, for the purpose of concerting with the Provisional Junta
of Navarre, placed in this town, as to the best means of de-
stroying the Constitutionial troops to be found in this province."

General Eguya, with his Staff,, is about to quit
our town. His project, it is said, is to occupy
with a division the frontiers of Navarre, in order
,to prevent all communication between the Libe-
rals.—(La Quotidienne.)
In the public sitting of the Society of Agri-
culture, Commerce, Arts, and Sciences, which is
to take place in the Department of the Marne,
in the month of August, 1823, a gold medal,
value 300 francs, is to be given to the writer of
the best article in answer to.the following ques-
tion :

" Does not the Society, in whose name a prosecution is in-
stituted, owe an indemnity to the accused, when the law de-
clares him innocent ? Incase of an answer in the affirmative,
let an inquiry he made into the motives which have caused the
,rnaintenance of a contrary system in France, and let the means
be pointed out by which this legislation is to be modified, in
conciliating the general interests of society with the interests of
the accused."

CONSTANTINOPt.E, AUG. 10.—The Greek Pa-
triarch died on the Bth of this month, after a long
and painful disease (the dropsy.) His obsequies
were performed to-day with much order and dig-
nity : ninny thousands of Greeks followed him to
the tomb. According to ancient custom, the
body had'been previously exposed on the Patri-
archal•throne in the cathedral; and more than
- 8,000 persons have been there to kiss the hands
and feet of the Chief of their church. On the
evening of the same day the Grand Seignior
permitted ,the choice of a successor to be pro-
ceeded in. At the same.time, six Greek Bishops
were set at liberty, who had been detained as
hostages for some months in the Seraglio. The
Porte has informed the Synod that, if its choice
falls on any one of these Bishops, it will be ap-
proved of without difficulty, provided the candi-
date possesses the five following qualities—ex-
perience, prudence, skilfulness, learning, and
fidelity to the Government.
The names of sixty-three Bishops were after-
wards read in the Synod, of whom three were
designed as candidates, uniting the necessary
qualities. The Representatives of the Greeks at
Constantinople, amounting to 600 voters, pro-
ceeded ,then to the election, and their choice fell
on one of the Six Bishops, viz. the Bishop of
Chalcedonia, who was formerly bishop of Smyrna.
—The Synod confirmed this election immediately,
•which it is hoped will meet the approbation of
the Sultan, and that to-morrow the new patriarch
r.will be clothed with the Caftan.
Some days before his death, the Patriarch
wrote an affecting letter to the Sultan, in whidh
.he recommended the Greeks to his favour. In
,particular he requested the abolition of a heavy
tax, which the Greeks of the capital, as well as
the Jews and Armenians, are obliged to pay
every month to the arsenal. The Grand Seignor
received this letter very graciously, and even
before the death of the Patriarch the tax was
abolished by a finnan. ,
TETEP.SBUIIGII, AUG. 20.—Count Nesselrode,
Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, set out
to-day for Vienna. Count Ferronays, the French
Ambassador, is also departed (he has arrived at
Berlin). During the absence of Count Nessel-
rode, the department for Foreign Affairs is con-
hded to M. Dioff,` Privy Councillor and Senator.
VIENNA, AUG.l29.—The news of the march of
several Turkish corps across Thessaly and Livadia,
against the Morea, is fully confirmed. Besides
Chourschid Pacha, the Paella of Salonica, who had
nothingmoreito fear in Macedonia, has alsoadvanc-
ed with an imposing force by Larissa and Thermo-
pylre, on Livadia; and probably it was he who
detached the corps which proceeded from Negro-
pont against Thebes and Athens. But this is all
we at present know of the military operations in
those quarters. Neither the strength of tha
opposing armies, the positions they occupy, nor
the issue of the combats which have taken place
between them, is at all known. If there had
been a great battle in the early part of July, it
is almost impossible that the news should not
have arrived here, whoever might have had the
advantage. But no one of the Embassies, and no
mercantile house of any eminence has received
any news of this kind.
At present it is certain that the Turkish fleet,
amounting to :120 vessels, having on board
.20,000 troops, has not stopped at any one of the
