FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

PARIS, APRIL 12.—1 t is said that the King of
England will arrive at Paris on the 18th of June.
Some of the Journals stated that all the En-
glish Naval Officers had received orders from
their Government to set out immediately for
England. The fact is, that only one has received
orders to hold himself in readiness to depart.
Three commercial couriers arrived on Wed-
nesday at Paris, at the house of Mr. Rothschild,
hanker, one from London, and the other two
from Vienna. 'Fite current report yesterday at
the Exchange was, that one of the two couriers
brought intelligence that the negociations, had
been re-opened between the Porte and Russia,
through the intervention of the mediating powers.
We hear from Ulm that the march of the
Austrian troops, who were ordered from Lom-
bardy to Naples, has been countermanded.
Several German Journals speak of a treaty of
alliance, offensive and defensive, between Russia
and Persia, a secret article of which guarantees
the possession of Armenia to the Schah, after
the expulsion of the Turks.
The Austrian Observer of the Ist is still silent
respecting the great question of war, and gives
some trifling accounts of the Turkish and Greek
fleets. The Gazette of Augsburg of the llth states
that the Porte has given a decisive answer to the
ultimatum, and rejects all the propositions of the
Russian Cabinet.

It is reported that a great banking-house has
received expresses from Germany and England,
bringing confirmation of the rupture of the nego-
ciations between Russia and the Porte.

It is said that that the Count de Golowkin, the
Russian Ambassador at Vienna, has formally de-
manded of the Austrian Government that Prince
Alexander Ypsilanti, who is detained in the for-
tress of Mongatz, in Hungary, shall be set at
liberty.

Our correspondence from Madrid of the
Ist April informs us that Admiral Valdes,
uncle of General Meg°, was chosen Presi-
dent of the Cortes for the ensuing month.—
The last letters received from Madrid are dated
Ist April, at midnight. They agree that the
capital was perfectly tranquil, and make no men-
tion of the absurd statements of the assassination
of General Itiego, &c. said to have been received
by a letter, dated Ist April, 11 P. M.

It is now certain that General Berton ar-
rived at Saint Sebastian on the 2cl instant in a
chasy, marZe ; it appears that he embarked at
Nantes.

FRANKFORT, APRIL 12.—The Augsburgh Ga-
t the of the 11th April has news from Constanti-
nople of the 11th March, of which the following
is an extract :
" The Turkish Government continues its preparations for
war with the greatest activity. Terror seems to have seized
the Franks who inhabit Pera. An abyss is opened before their
eyes. The Porte exerts itself to maintain the tranquillity of
the capital in this critical moment; but at the commencement
of hostilities a great catastrophe threatens all Christians. Ex-
cesses took place even at the beginning of this month, but
inder has happily been restored.
" Every body takes arms, and the Government no longer re-
spects the rights of nations ; for, at the beginning of this month,
it caused many vessels to he seized under different flags, among
otkers, several Austrian vessels. The remonstrances of the
Ambassadors of Austria and England have not succeeded in
obtaining the release of these vessels; in short, what was fore-
teen by those who know the spirit of the Turkish Government
and the feelings of the nation has come to pass. War and the
extermination of the Greeks are the order of the day with all
the Mussulmen. Great misfortunes have been prepared for the
Christians of this capital, by giving them hopes in which sen.
bible people never placed any credit, but which have however
influenced the greater number. Flight is become impossible.
It will be necessary to wait till the Turkish Ministers adopt
measures for the security of the European Ministers; then a
certain number of other persons will be able to escape at the
same time. _

Lord Strangford has received positive information frorri
Odessa, that the fleet of Nikolajew was equipped, and that the
Russian. Government would commence hostilities if it had not
received a satisfactory answer by the end of March.
[ It must be observed that when this was written the rejection
of the ultimatum was not known at St. Petersburgh.l—(Editor
of the Constitutioniwl.)
" From this moment every body thinks of saving his fortune,
Tor sooner or later this city will be the theatre of pillage and as-
sassination. Yesterday, in the Grand Mosque, the Ulemas
Pronounced an Anathema against the Christians.
" By a letter from Trieste, it should seem that the Pacha of
Egypt is preparing to take possession of the island of Cyprus, of
Which the Sultan has appointed him Governor."
VIENNA', APRIL I.—Private accounts from
Constantinople, or rather from Pera, to the 11th
March, state that the Franks of Vera were in
the greatest disquietude, believing themselves
menaced with universal pillage in the event of a
declaration of war on the part of Russia. It is
said that Lora Strangford had received positive
intelligence that the Russian fleet of Nicolaiew
Was completely equipped, and that in the event
of the rejection of the Ultimatum, this fleet was to
put to sea and commence hostilities early in the
present month. . • - • -

It is believed that the Russians will attempt a
debarkation near Constantinople, There is a

strenuous contest between the Russian and English
Diplomatists at the Court of Persia.
It was reported at Pera, that the Ulemas, or
Doctors of Law, had pronounced a solemn ana-
thema against all. Christianity in the Great Mosque,
formerly the Cathedral of St. Sophia.
The Spectateur Oriental has been forbidden to
make political reflections.
BERLIN, APRIL 6.—Our State Gazette con-
tains the following remarkable article :
" Accounts have been circulated in the public papers, which
have excited general apprehension respecting the possibility of
preserving peace in the East. Though the negotiations at Con-
stantinople, as well as at Vienna, are a political secret, we are
however authorized to declare, that nothing has happened
which can he assigned as a ground for these apprehensions.—
Not a word has yet been pronounced by any Court which can
be considered as a declaration of war, or which must lead to
such a declaration. With the undoubted wish of his Majesty
the Emperor of Russia to avoid war, if it can be done in a man-
ner compatible with the honour of his Crown ; with the most po-
sitive assurances of the Divan of its willingness to remove
every cause of offence to its powerful neighbour ; with the
zealous efforts of the Austrian Ambassador, and of the Prus-
sian Charge d'Affaires at Constantinople, to induce the Porte
to the performance of its treaties ; with the convictions of the
Divan that these Ministers are actuated by the purest motives
in advising it to preserve peace by concession, there is the best
founded hope that the difficulties still existing will soon be re-
moved."

BERLIN, APRIL 6.—Sotne persons have been
disposed to consider the article in the State Ga-
zette, respecting the state of the negociations
with Turkey, as official, which, however, is not
the case, as it was inserted only in the unofficial
•
part o fthat paper..
STOCKHOLM, APRIL 2.-Our official 6-azetle
contains the following article :
" Letters from Constantinople of the 9th of March, which
have been received here by express, say, that the head of Ali
Paella has been exposed at the gate of the Seraglio, and that the
Pacha was betrayed by his own people, the usual fall of traitors.
His treasure was estimated at 40 millions rix.dollars Ham-
burgh Banco. The friends of peace fear that the Turks, in-
toxicated by this success, may break off' the negociations, and
that the influence of the Janissaries over the Sultan may be ef-
fctital."

COPENHAGEN, APRIL 6.—The King is so well,
that no more bulletins will be issued. He looks
well, but must not leave his room.

1.4 CI PSIC, Miacli the accounts which
we have received for some days past from Vienna,
Warsaw, St. Petersburgh, &c. are of a very war-
like tendency ; and people believe that the hos-
tilities between Russia and Turkey are at hand.
The Greek Prince Cantacuzeno, who has just
arrived here from Dresden, is said not yet to
have received his passports to proceed to St. Pe-
tersburgh.,
NUREMBERG, APRIL 3.—(Extract from a pri-
vate Letter.)—The news which we have received
from Vienna by the courier of to-day are of the
very highest importance. The Russian Senator,
M. Tatischeff, continues to hold frequent con-
ferences with Prince Metternich, the Minister
for Foreign Affairs. Although nothing transpires
in public concerning the objects under discussion
between these two statesmen, yet some who are
not in general ignorant of what passes at Court
appear to believe that the result of the negocia-
dons which have been carried on at Con-
stantinople will give rise to a total change
in the line of policy pursued by the diffe-
rent Cabinets. We no longer hear of an offen-
sive and defensive alliance, so positively de-
clared to have been concluded, or at least to
have been proposed, some months since be-
tween the Courts of Vienna and London.—
On the contrary, we are now told of an intimate
alliance between Austria and Russia, in which
Prussia will also be called to join. No doubt is
entertained but that the mission with which M.
de Tatischeff is charged relates to this object ;
and from the attentions which are paid by
the Court of Austria to this negociator, we
are led to presume that he will be success-
ful in this important project. Great activity
prevails in the Chancery of the Aulic coun-
cil of war. Expresses are repeatedly dispatched
to the Generals in command, as well in the
l3ukowine as in the Bannat of Temeswar. Con-
siderable reinforcements have been marched into
those provinces from Bohemia and Moravia.—
Austria is putting herself in a situation to station
a respectable army on the frontiers the instant
hostilities have commenced between the Russians
and the Turks.

AIX-LA-CHAPELLE, APRIL 5.—A special mes-
senger sent by the Austrian Chancery of Foreign
Affairs has brought important dispatches to the
Russian Government. They are believed to re-
late to the Affairs of Turkey, in which the Cabi-
net of Berlin is disposed to take an active part.
It is said that a distinguished diplomatist will
without delay set out from Berlin for Vienna,
to fulfil a mission, the object of which will be
readily presumed.
It is said that a corps of Prussian troops will
he employed conjointly with a Russian corps
d'armee, to ensure the execution of the measures
of precaution determined upon by the Cabinet
of St. Petersburgh, for the safety of the coasts of
the Baltic.

A MERICA.—A report prevailed in December last, that the
United States ship Franklin had been blown up at sea.—The
following positive contradiction is indeed

GRATIFYING INTELLIGENCE.

We have only time to inform our southern friends that we
have just learned by the ship hope, from Montevideo, that the
United States ship Franklin, Commodore STEWART, and
schooner Dolphin, Captain CON NER, arrived at Rio Janeiro
the latter end of November, all well.2(Arew York Gazette.)
NORFOLK, MARcil 10.—Arrived, the brig Eliza, RILEY,
43 days from Rio Janeiro ; left, 23d Jan. brig Pleiades, from
Philadelphia, discharging. Brig Tinnindra, YARNALL, had
arrived and sailed for Pernambuco the 19th January. Dec. 2.

STEWART, and the schooner Dolphin, CON NOR, %tiled from
Rio Janeiro for Valparaiso, the 25th December.

Extract of a letter from Edinburgh, dated April 10th :
" Lord ROSSLY N has surrendered himself, and is just now be-
fore the Sheriff.. Mr. STuAnT is to return immediately from
France for the same purpose, as he is apprehensive they do not
mean to try him but keep it over his head. If they put him in
gaol, he will force on his trial.—P.S. Lord Rosslyn, after some
consideration, has been admitted to bail."
On Saturday, William Murray Borthwick of
the Glasgow Sentinel, present prisoner in the tolbooth of this
city, was served with an indictment, for breaking into the office
of that paper, and taking away papers out of lock-fast places,
to stand trial before the Circuit Court of Justiciary at Glasgow,
on Monday the 22d instant---( Edin. Courant, April 11.)
An aged female residing in Stanhope-street,
Clare-market, was accidentally burned to death
yesterday. It appeared that the unfortunate
individual's clothes caught fire, and no person
being present to give assistance, the sufferer
after a few hours excessive pain breathed her last.

Paris. Papers of Thursday and Friday have
arrived, and contain, a repetition of the intelli-
gence we communicated on Saturday of the
Porte having consented to' re-open the negocia-
Lions with Russia through the intervention of the
mediating Powers. We are not at all surprised
that Austria, particularly, should exert every
effort to avert hostilities, for it is impossible she
can regard, without serious alarm, the partition
or the conquest of Turkey, which would bring
the greatest portion of her frontiers in contact
with Russia. Indeed, if the Wallachians, the
Servians, and the Greeks of the peninsula, were
subject to the dominion of Russia, the Austrian
Monarchy would not only be open to that ambi-
tious Power, on one half of her frontiers, but
also be exposed to danger from within, because
many of her subjects, professing the same reli-
gious faith, and speaking the same language as
the Russians, may naturally be expected to feel
a predilection for Russia, and prove dangerous
subjects in the event of any differences arising
between those two Powers. In the case of a
partition of Turkey, the Austrian Cabinet would
be compelled to demand her share, and such a
demand must be enforced at the head of one
hundred thousand men ; but this measure is not
to be effected except by withdrawing her troops
in Sicily, Naples, and the Lombardo-Venetian
Kingdoms, and thereby endangering her sway
over the Italian States. We are, •however,
of opinion that the exertions of the mediating
Powers will not be crowned with success in in-
ducing the Porte to accept the Ultimatum, from the
conditions of which it is well known the Emperor
ALEXANDER is determined not to recede; and
that it will eventually prove the SULTAN has
yielded to the wishes of Austria and England to
re-consider his last decision, for the sole purpose
of gaining time to complete his preparations
for war, which have long been and are
actively pursuing in every part of the Otto-
man dominions. En a preceding column we
have given copious extracts from the French and
German Papers, which have arrived since our
last.

Spanish Papers to the Ist instant have arrived,
which represent the capital as perfectly tranquil,
and state that Senor VA LDES, the uncle of ItIEGO,
was chosen President of the Cortes for the ensu-
ing month. Some of the provinces, however, are
still in a state of agitation.

[Extract of a Letter from the Agent at Constantinople, dated
March 11.]
cc This Government has renewed its purchases
of corn, and though our wants are apparent, and
our supplies chiefly depending on Russia, the
answer of the Porte to the demands of that pow er
is such as to render the issue of this great ques-
tion very doubtful. Captain FELL, of the Sultan,
for Alexandria, reports that a native brig from
Candia to the former place had been taken and
carried into the port of Casso by a Greek armed
vessel, and liberated by a British tender belong-
ing to the Cambrian frigate. The Ipscree squa-
dron had been out 23 days without being heard
of, and it was supposed to have gone in search of
the Turkish fleet, which however, it was re-
ported, had reached Patras."

We have been assured that there are upwards
of twelve thousand English Residents in Paris.
There are certainly many others in various parts
of France. The number of the former is pro-
bably exaggerated, but that there are a vast
number of British Absentees in that country is
certain. How reprehensible are these persons,
who, in the present state of Agricultural Dis-
tress at home, squander on foreigners, the natu-
ral enemies of this country, as they have always
been styled, that money, which, if employed at
home, would be a national relief. They
must be despised by the very people who
profit by their total destitution of patri-
otic feeling and common humanity. The un-
fortunate case of Mr. IAOVEDA.Ir holds forth an
awful warning to those Protestants who go abroad
to give their children a foreign education. His
just complaints are treated by the French Legis-
lators with indifference, if not contempt, and
there seems no probability that he Avill obtain
any redress or relief.—A tax on Absentees has
often been proposed, and it can never be more
properly carried into effect than at the present mo-
ment. That some are obliged to leave the country
from the pressure of necessity, and to avoid their
creditors, and' others from ill health, is probable,
but some qualifications might be adopted ; and the
general result of such an impost would indubit-
ably be a national benefit, and might have ob-
viated the measure of dismissing the inferior of
of Public Establishments, and reducing them,
to poverty and despair. We see a recent instance
of a man who gommi4ed suicide, in consequence
of his discharge without a due provision for the
support of himself and family ; and if others do

not resort to the same degperate expedient, there
can be no doubt that a great number are reduced
to the extreme of distress. This lamentable
state of things constitutes a powerful appeal to
the justice and humanity of Government.

IRELAND.—We have this morning received a
mass of Irish newspapers, which we are sorry to
say contain the accounts of numerous outrages,
none of them, however, distinguished by very
remarkable atrocity. On the other hand, by
the activity of the Magistrates, many of the
disturbers continue to be apprehended, and
lodged in gaol. Amongst these, several men
have been secured in the County of Limerick,vi ho
are affirmed to have been among the prime movers
and principal leaders of the insurrection. One
of them is named John Rock, and is called, in
the account of his apprehension, the Captain of
the persons with whom he was taken into cus-
tody, but it is not distinctly asserted that he is
the notorious General Rock, whose name has be-
come so terrible in the South of Ireland. OW the
person of a man named Denis Egan, apprehend-
ed near Roscrea on the night of the .sth instant,
there was found a manuscript book, containing
the oath of the Unitedmen,—the pass-words of
the insurgents.—the genera! united toast,—and
a catechism. IVe shall insert a copy of this do-
cument to-morrow. Amongst the obligations of
the oath, is one " To fight three deep in orange
blood,—the crying of children, the moaning
of women, or the groaning of men, not to daunt
me, for the restoration and continuation of
the long promised liberty to the Catholic
Church."—At the Cork Assizes, Charles Bate-
man, a private in the Clonakilty Yeomanry, was
tried for the murder of 11,yrnicx BUCKLEY, and
acquitted, it being proved that the shot which
killed the unfortunate man was fired by another
person, who absconded. The Judge, before the
prisoner was discharged, said that " unquestion-
ably there had been a homicide committed ; but
he had no doubt that the prisoner was perfectly
innocent of it."—Our Readers will recollect that
this trial grew out of the seizure of an illicit
still, and the apprehension of two men who
were working it, near Clonakilty. The 'two
men were tied together, and placed in front
of the military party, when, an attempt having
been made at rescue by a large mob, one of the
yeomanry discharged his piece at BUCKLEY, and
killed him on the spot.—At the same assizes,
Mary S'lanley and William Leary, her servant,
were indicted for the murder of DAVID STANLEY,
the husband of the female prisoner. It appeared
that a criminal intercourse had taken place be-
tween the prisoners ; and the wretched woman
hrd long instigated her paramour to the murder
of her husband, which diabolical act he at length
effected. Though both prisoners had made con-
fession of their guilt, yet from a legal defect in the
evidence affecting the woman she was acquitted.
Leary was executed on Thursday last.

In the French Chamber of Deputies, on Thurs-
day, a Report was made from the Committee of
Petitions, on the Petition of Mr. LovcoAy, com-
plaining that his daughter had been seduced to
become a Catholic. The facts of this case are
already fully known to our Readers. The Re-
port, which was ordered to be printed, after
stating that Miss LOVEDAY was free to chuse her
religion, recommended the Chamber to pass to
the Order of the Day, which was agreed to by a
considerable majority, after a violent opposition.
On Friday evening the Duke of Yonic after
dinner left Newmarket for London, and arrived
in town about seven o'clock on Saturday morning.

The Duke and Duchess of GLOUCESTER ho-
noured Drury-lane Theatre with their presence
on Friday evening. The Princess AUGUSTA ho-
noured Covent-garden Theatre with her presence
on Friday evening. On Saturday evening the
Princes AuGt7sT.k, the Duchess of KENT, and the
Duke and Duchess of GLOUCESTER, honourvd
the Italian Opera with their presence.
KING'S TnEvra E.—We were much gratified
by the repetition of the new Opera I Preten-
denti Delusi on Saturday, the effect of which is
much increased by some judicious alterations and
curtailments by BEGNIS. Our limits pre-
vent a detail of them, but we cannot refrain
from noticing a spirited chorus in the second act,
which takes the place of a tedious recitation,
now omitted. CURIONI surprised us by omit-
ting a beautiful air at the commencement oc the
second lict, to which his voice would have given
considerable effect. The Duo bet Ween DE
BEGNIS and his wife, " lo di Milo son contento,"
which we have heard several times at the. Ora-
torios, receives an additionakp effect from the
scene, and the excellent acting which these per-
formers bestow on it. It was admirably given,
and called for an unanimous encore. PAcci
and DE BEGNIS also received great applause in a
spirited duet. But we have no room to particularize,
and therefore must omit noticing several other
pieces equally deserving of notice. On the whole,
it went off with increased effect, and is likely to
stand its ground with the other novelties of the
season. 'We should notice the acting of DE
BEGNIS in his address to the Purse—it was ex-
cellent. No praise is too great for Madame DE
BEGNIS. The House was crowded with fashion-
able visitors, and the Ballet, as well as the
Opera, received the warmest applause.

. .
EDINBUnGiI THEATILE.-Mr. C. KEMBLE CONitinUeS to
attract brilliant and crowded audiences to witness his excellent
actingl. Since our last notice he has performed several of his
best characters, such as Charles in the School for Scandal, Pe-
truchio, and Benedict, in the admirable comedy of Mach ado
about Nothing; and in all of them he shewed that he possesses
powers of a very superior order. He was most ably supported
by Mrs. SIDDONS, in Lady Teazle!, in Catharine, and in
Beatrice. In the latter character this lively and interesting
actress displayed a spirit and a playfulness that rendered it a
highly finished performance. Mr. TEllity's Dogberry was sin-
gularly effective.—( Edinburgh Courant' April 11.)-
The Winter Theatres are in future to close by
the end of June, and not to open until the 15th
of October. The LittleTheatre in the Haymarket
is to open by the end of May, or beginning of
June, and to cease performances by the 15th of
October. All the restrictions upon performers
at Drury-lane and Covent-garden, preventing
them from playing at the Haymarket, are to be
taken •off. All the Minor Theatres are to be
brought strictly back to their original rules, and
their licences confined to the exhibition of spec-
tacle, and to recitative in dialogue.

THE MARKETS.

CORN EXCHANGE, APRIL 15.

NVe had but few fresh arrivals of Wheat this morning, and
those from Essex and Kent, a very small proportion of
which was of fine quality, which description sold rather
freely, on full as good terms as on this day se'nnight ; but
we continue without any demand for the interior samples.
Ba:ley is is. per quarter lower than on last Monday, although
the arrivals have been but moderate; but owing to the•dull
state of the Malt trade, the maltsters are not disposed to in-
crease their stock of Barley, even at the present low prices.—
Oats sold on as good terms as this day week, but the trade.
was far from brisk. In Peas and Beans there is no alteration.
