powerfully influence the Assemblies of the Pro-
vincial States, which are to meet next month.

We learn from the Augsburgh Gazette of Sep-
tember '29, that some Tartars have brought to
Bucharest the news of a change previously fore•
seen in the Turkish Ministry. The Grand
Vizier, Ghalib Pacha, has been dismissed, and
replaced by the Pacha of Silistria. Ghalib was
disliked by the Janissaries, whose party is at
present triumphant.

All letters from the Levant agree that the Ot-
toman fleet has suffered considerable loss in an
action with the Greeks. Even the Milan Ga-
zette, edited under the Austrian censorship,
admits the facts.

PARIS, OCT. 4.—On Saturday the Duke,
Duchess, and Mademoiselle of Orleans visited the King and
Royal Family.
A Council of Ministers was held on Saturday evening at the
house of the Count de Villele.

On Saturday the Infant Don Miguel visited the King and
Royal Family, to take his leave ; and yesterday his Royal
Highness and suite.departed for Vienna.
On Saturday the Austrian Ambassador visited the Count de
Villele, and remained two hours with his Excellency.
Yesterday the King held a levee, which was attended by the
Chancellor of France, the Pope's Nuncio, the Neapolitan Am-
bassador, Prince Talleyrand, the Cabinet Ministers, the Mar-
shals, and a great number of Peers, Deputies, and Military
Officers.

The King and Royal Family heard mass yesterday in the
chapel of the Tuileries. After mass his Majeety appeared at
the balcony, and was received with load acclamations.
'The remains of his late Majesty Louis XVIII. will be
deposited in the vault of the Bourbons on the 25th instant.—
The coronation of King Charles X, it is said, will take place
in May.

The couriers who were dispatched .to different Courts with
intelligence of the death of the late King, travelled with such
speed that the news reached Madrid in the night of the 'loth
ult., Berlin on the 51st, and Vienna on the 22d.
We hear that Lieutenant-General F.xcelmans has been ad-
mitted to a private audience of the King, and that his Majesty
condescended to say, " General, I forget all that has passed."
The only thing I wish to remember is, that when Buonaparte
gave you orders to pursue me, you took another road than
mine."

At eleven o'clock to-morrow morning, a mass 'in music, of
the composition of M. Desvignes, with full orchestra, will be
performed at the Cathedral of Notre Dame, for the repose of
the soul of his late Majesty Louis XVIII. After mass a re.
quiern by Mozart will be executed by the principal performers
of the capital.

ERMAN PAPERS.

"[Received last Night.]

rfIANKVORT, SEPT. 24.—1 t would ceTtnialy he
doing injustice to the public here, to ascribe the interest it takes
in great political events to regard for its mercantile interest only,
and to accuse it of indifference to all events which do not im-
mediately affect it. lithe late change in the head of the French
Monarchy may be considered In this point of view, yet the sym-
pathy it shows at this moment in the unhappy fate of the Ex-
Emperor Iturbide cannot well be explained, except from the
personal regard which that remarkable man 'inspired during his
visit here last spring. Persons, who at that time met with him
in company, are quite at a loss to explain the rashness of his
last enterprise, because in private intercourse, he showed so re-
markable a degree of understanding and prudence, that when
the newspapers had placed the object of his voyage beyond all
doubt, they could not help being persuaded that he would not
commence the execution of his extensive projects without a pro-
bable hope of success. He had given us here to understand
that the lower classes of the people and the clergy were sincerely
attached to him; and though he by no means explained his
views, he had excited such a bias in his favour, that his
transient appearance sufficed to make people ascribe to him
plans of the greatest importance, and to take it for granted that
his first steps, at least, would not be without success.

The death of Louis XVIII., more than any other event, re-
calls to the recollection of our politicians the remarkable epoch
about nine years ago, when the conclusion of the Holy Alliance
laid the foundation of the present grand system of European
policy. At that time people were pretty generally persuaded
that the duration of this compactdepended on the characters of
the august contracting parties, because it was an expression of
their elevated sentiments, and the result of a diplomatic nego-
elation. We then observed, that it evidently escaped the notice
of the crowd, astonished at the greatness of the object, that a
principle, true in knelt', under whatever form it may have been
called forth into practical politics, always carries in itself the
pledge of its duration ; as on the other hand, all treaties dictated
merely by the necessity of the moment have within them the
seeds of their dissolution. Of this truth, which is placed
beyond doubt by theory. and the experience of ages, we have
had again an opportnnity of convincing ourselves, when, since
that remarkable period of the Holy Alliance, a complication of
relations took place which the momentary interests of the several
states united by the Alliance seemed to be so involved, that
nothing but a means almost unknown in ancient diplomacy—
viz., the strictest injunction of the moral law, that is to say, an
absolute disregard of all selfish motives—could give the parties
concerned sufficient energy to neglect .all these -interests, and
make them subordinate to the general objects of the Alliance.
But even these actual evidences of unshaken consistency,
this persevering adherence to the principle, were not yet
sufficient to convince all the sceptics ; and they always
returned to their original assertion, that the present system
of the great Cabinets could not be permanent, because it
entirely depended on the
personal character of its august
founders—that, consequently, the edifice resting on its founda-
tion must fall to ruin as soon as one of its supporters should
submit to the common lot, mortality. His time is now come,
and every thing indicates that incredulity will be again put to
shame. The death in question is indeed too recent for any one
to pretend to calculate before band, with mathematical certainty,
all its possible consequences; but as far as a fact which paasem
before our eyes can authorize analogous conclusions, there is no
reason to apprehend any shock to the general system from that
melancholy event. 'We allude to the opinion already expressed
in lac i
the majority of our mercantile world, which, as mat-
tersiot v bye stand, is of considerable weight. All our speculators,
who were in expectation of a decline in the funds, have been
deceived; and immediately on the arrival of the news, an ex-
traordinary activity was observed, the demand exceeded the
supply, and funds of every description immediately rose. It
is remarkable, that at the same moment the former scarcity of
money has suddenly ceased, most transactions are done for
ready cash, anti discount has fallen to 51i. per cent. Though
the French funds, since the re-opening of the Exchange, are
noted rather lower than private accounts bad stated them, it
seems certain that the change of the Monarch will cause no
change of system in the administration of France, and the
public funds continue to rise in our market.—(Avgemei„c
