FRENCH PAPERS.

From the Moniteur of Wednesday, Aug. 15.)
Montt) AUG. 14.—(Non-Official Pal t.)—
SinCe the return othis Majesty, we hear no more
of the change of the present Ministers, all of
whom have given proofs of royalist sentiments.
M. Salazar, Minister of the Marine, has been
erroneously called a Liberal ; for in 1814, after
the abolition of the
.fortes, and the soi-disant
Constitutional Government, he was charged by
his Majesty to collect all the papers in the archives
of the dismissed Constitutional Ministers, which
the Liberals did not forgive hint when he was
named Minister of the Marine, at the time of the
revolution in 1820, for be did not take posses-
sion of the office, 'but was forced by the perse-
cutions directed against him to return to the re-
treat which he had chosen in Biscay. M. Cruz,
Minister of War, who, with the► Ex-Minister
°retie and M. Salazar, was said to form the
liberal part of the Ministry, has given proofs of
contrary sentiments, both dnring the revolution,
when, on his return • from America, he resided
at Santander, an object of suspicion to' tt►e Con-
stitutionalists,and by ill the acts of his Ministry.
The Govertimentcontinues to employ several
persons who filled important offices during the.
Constitutional Government, because these per-
sons are not revolutionists, and on the contrary
always endeavour to avert,misforttines.
A great deal has been said about the. dearness
Of corn, but the 'reports have gone beyond the
'Oath. The fanega of wheat was never worth
Irss than 50 reels, except in these latter tittles,
when the low price of grain has been a most se-
rious injury to agriculture : thus it is not stir.
prising that wheatshould now have risen to N
reals, when the harvest of this province and La
Mancha,• which supplies Madrid, is lost. Our
subsistence must now be derived from Old Cas-,
dile, where they have still in hand the produce
of three years, which secures the supply of this
capital.
A UG. 19.—The King, the Queen, the Infants,
and Infantas, arrived at the Escurial on the 18th,
where they stopped only 24 hours, and then

corps shall be increased by a foreign company,

. 0 puss A, , jul.Y. 23.—A vessel from Constan-
tinople bringS the following news, dated the 15th:
On the 7th a Tartar, from Smyrna, announced
to the Divan the news that the Greek squadron,
consisting of 45 vessels, including 14 fire-ships,
after having landed troops at Ipsara, had gained
a great
.victory over the Turkish fleet and the
Barbarians ow shore. ..The fleet of. the Cap-
itain Pacha was completely ..defeated, and lost
several. vessels, among which are three frigates
destroyed by the fire-ships. ' The Admiral's
ship was much damaged by the fire of the
batteries, of which the Greeks made them.
selves masters, and was dismasted. It is sup-
posed it will require two months to repair the
damages sustained by the Turkish fleet, and en-
able it to go to sea. News from Corfu, of July
14, and from Trieste, of Aug. 10, confirm this
statement ; and it appears that an extraordinary
Gazette was published- at Missolonghi, on July
16th, giving an account of this successful attack.

COUFtI, Juts '21.---At the capture of psara,
some of the inhabitants escaped on board
French, and Austrian vessels, and they say
that they were betrayed by the Chief of the
Albanians, named Cotta, a man who hail been
first a Greek, then a Turk, and hud again pro.
fessed Christianity at the beginning of the Greek
Revolution. Ile had served for a long time with
the Captain Pacha, and was very intimate with
the Commandant of the Turkish Albanians who
were on board the Captain Paella's ship. In.
formation had been previously received that there
Was some treachery going on, and though Cotta
W 1.13 pointed out, no guilt could be brought home
to him. The 'forks efferted their first landing
at a part of this island confided to his care, and
considered impregnable, which leaves nu doubt
of his treason.

Extract of a letter from a gentleman high in the civil service
of the East India Company, dated Calcutta, 9th March, 1024 :
" The Bengal excepted, every disengaged ship in the port his
been taken up for the service of Goveroment. Sluce 1 last
wrote, however, the destination of the expedition has been
changed, from the minor object of Chedoba to that of Ran-
goon, and, ultimately, Anirapoora, the capital of toe Burman
Empire, in consequence of. the very large force which the Ma-
dras Government has placed at the disposal of this fir foreign
service. The expedition will consist of 11,000 men, 8,000 from
the Madras, and 3,000 from this Presidency, and will proceed,
about the middle of next month, to Rangoon, and thence gri to
A mrapoorts, as soon as die periodical rains have filled the rivers
.suiliciently to admit of water carriage for the heavy ordnance
and equipage, Ace. of the detachment. The 13th, 38th, 41st,
and another King's regiment, will form port of the force, with
which there will be at least 3000 Europeans. Some think the
force unnecessarily large; but this, I am persuaded, is not the
case. Besides here, where the loss of men is not easily sup-
plied, it is erring (if at all) on the safe side."—(Liverpool
Courier.)
