PARIS, APRIL 2-1.--The King received the
Foreign Ambassadors yesterday, and afterward*
went to Argenteuil. '

A letter from Tours, of the 21st instant, says—
" The first Council of I'Var has decided -with
respect to the affair of Saurnur. Sirejean has
, „

been condemned to":death, and Coudert to five
years' imprigonment for concealment. of the
offence."

Two journals of yesterday stated, that in con-
sequence of an assassination committed on a
Colonel by a domestic, and in the house of Lord
Byron, the Noble Lord is at present in prison,
but the Cmlonel is not named. One of them
places the scene at Pisa, and the other at Pavia,
and to heighten the probability, they make the
news come from Rome. It would probably have
come from Milan, had there' been any foundatioc►
for it.

The'Moniteur publishes a Royal Ordinance
on _.the stibject of Custom-house Duties, affecting
certain articles of foreign merchandize imported
into Fttluce. It confirms, Ist, the Ordinance of
the 31st of October, 1821, modifying the import
duty On foreign wools, and premiums on exporta-
tion of cloths, whether entirely woollen or mixed
2d, the Ordinance of the 3d of November, 1821,
prohibiting, otherwise than in transitu, the im-
portation of iron bars (not hammered) ; 3d, it
extends the' restrictive provisions of the latter
ordinance to hammered iron, if smelted over coal
furnaces, and to all sorts of iron if attempted to
be introduced by the land frontier; some spe-
cific duties are afterwards imposed on cattle,
sheep, pigs, &c. imported ; on provisions, fresh
and salted; and on one or two other articles.
We can announce in the most authentit man-
ner that Mr. Williams, Secretary of M. Zen, left
Paris two days ago. He is the bearer of letters
from M. Zea, addressed directly to the Alarquhs
of Londonderry, which relate to the recognition
of the Republic of Columbia by England.

FRANKFORT, APRIL 17.—1 t is remarked, that
notwithstanding the publication of the article ia
the ilustrian Observer, the 'public funds At
Vienna have not recovered the decline they e%
perienced since the 9th of this month.—(Journal
de Pads.)

This luminous article, which just telli us fie'
thing at all, has raised the funds a little.--(Juur-
nal-des -Dhbats.)
The 'Nuremberg Gazette announces that the
Manifesto of the Court of Russia, relative to the
war against Turkey, will be made public with-
out delay.
The last letters from Constantinople, received
at. Vienna, are dated the 25th of March, and
bring the important news that hostilities between
the Turks and Persians have re-commenced, and
that. the Schah is determined to prosecute the
war with rigour.
AtiGSBURG,. APRIL 18.—:.The Aligemeine
lung,' in its number of this day, replies in a fer
words to the accusations brought' against it by
the. Austrian Observer. "-if .this Journal," it
says,." never pretended to know more about the
affairs of the East than ia proper for a .private
.
individual," this is no reason to accuse the Co,r'
respondents of other Journals, particularly those
who. send news from Odessa, Senalin, Btc.ol.

with the German Journalists)---and, on the ot:het',
hand, of- exciting angry feelings in Turkey, in
,order to induce the Divan to war and the people
to excesses: The Allgemeine' Zeilung, as.it
could easily prove, is wholly tiStranger to such
manoeuvres, of ' the very existence of which it is
ignorant: All that it knows is, that most of the
news, some of them very important, which have
been published by it from the communications.
of its Correspondents, have been since confirmed
bythenfficial Journals of other Countries.

Some errors in the dates may doubtless have'
crept into these daily communications. The di'
plomatie -reports also are liable to the same error'
It must be remembered, besides-, that throughout,
the Ottoman Empire 'there are neither official
'articles nor journals, nor daily- posts, and that
the letters Of merchants, most of them written
under the daggers of the Turks, arrive only once

things, not to be ,sometiines miStaken, if not re"

more about:the affairs of the East than the cor-
respondents, in Odessa, Semlln, &c. 'has 'taken,
one method to be wholly free from error,namelYl
to observe-for months together the most profound,
silence with regard 10 all that is passing... The

AIX•LA•CHAPELLE, APRIL I9.—We have just
received letters from . Vienna of a very recent
date; One-of them terminates with the following
paragraph It is considered as certain, that
on the 25th of this month (April), we shall kilo"'
positively' whether we shall have war, or wile'
ther peace will be maintained."

It his confirmed by various communication`'
that part Of. the Austrian troops, 'forming the,
garrison of the fortresses in the ,Milanese and
Venetian territory, is to march to Dalmatia, t°

are collecting in Turkish' Dalmatia.. It iS af.7

already arrived at Mostaret. The Austrian head"
quarters will be at .Z4ira..
They write from Zante, under tile' date of 7th
March, that the . Greek and Turkish squadrons
