The Echo corvette arrived at Toulon on the
llthinstant, from Smyrna. At the departure of
this vessel the best order continued to reign
among the ships employed in the Levant. They
have visited the different ports in succession, and
have exercised their usual activity in affording
protection to our flag, which has acquired so
much respect that our merchant' ships are much
sought after by commercial men, who have ship-
ments to make. In general there is observed,
throughout the Levant, a sentiment of good-will
-and consideration for the French ; and this fa-
vourable disposition is certainly owing, in a great
measure, to the activity and energy of the offi-
cers who command the Ring's ships.—(lioniteur.)
A letter from the Minister of War, the Duke of
Belluno, to the Commandant of the 7th regiment
of foot artillery, notices the honourable manner
in which they exculpated themselves from any
participation in the conspiracy of Nantes, and
expresses his conviction of their devoted attach-
ment to their country. The Minister considers
that all fears of internal commotions in France
have wholly subsided.
Mr. Douglas Loveday has addressed a new
Petition to the Chamber of Deputies, which will
.be reported upon in the course of next week.
It is stated from the Banks of the Danube, the
-6th February, according to the Nuremberg Cor.
.respondent, that the Paella of Egypt had pro-
mised the Divan to send, about the middle of
January, a considerable squadron to the aid of
the Island of Candia, and which, it is added,
would act also against the Islanders of Hydra,
Spezzia, and Ipsara, so as to make them return
-under the dominion of the Porte.
It does-pot appear that the Divan has any in-
tention of taking from the Greek nation the Hos-
podars to be sent to the two Principalities. It
is thought that it will nominate to these impor-
tant offices natives of the country.
On the Bth instant, five shocks of earthquake
-were felt in the environs of Landshut, in Bavaria,
.in less than 80 seconds.
