GERMAN PAPERS.

CONSTANTINOPLE, SEPT. 10.—The must com-
plete tranquillity prevails here, and we hope
that the frequent conferences of the Pompom
Ministers with the. Reis Effendi will soon lead to
an atrangement of all the differences with Russia;
this at least is the general opinion in Pere. The
courier dispatched to London on the Bth, by Lord
Strangford, is supposed to have been the bearer
of very favourable accounts of the state of the
negociations with England. People fancy, too,
that those Franks who have any business to trans•
art with the Porte are treated with much more
politeness than they have been for some time
past.

Tat Sam 22.—Two vessels have arrived
which left Tschestne, in Asia Minor, on the sth
and 6th'of September. The Captains report that
they saw, off Selo, the tleet of the Capitan Pasha

Starr. 25.—Private letters from Zante of the
Ist inst. any, that the celebrated Greek Chief
Bozzeris had died of the wounds he received at
Agrapha, and that he was buried at Missolonghi.
The same letters again mention the' insurrection
of the Montenegrins in consequence of the events
at Agrapha.
Tent.t, Ocx. 4.---The Gaulle Pisdnuntlese of
to-day contains a long article-from Alexandria,
of the 29th of September, relative to the evacua-
tion of that fortress the day before by the Aus-
trian garrison, according to the treaty concluded
et Verona. The magistrates of the city eve a
splendid entertainment on this joyful occasion to
the officers of the Austrian troops, and to thou*
of the Sardinian regiments, which were to gairi-
son the town and citadel. Count Dubin*, Com-
mander-io-Chief of the Austrian troops irt:Lom.
bardy, arrived on the 27th, end the Sardinian
troops entered on the 28th. The magistrates ex-
pressed, in the most energetic terms, theirgrati-
tude to, the brave .Austrian garrison, for the ad-
mirable conduct and strict discipline it main-
tained during the period of its stay. The whole
Austrian garrison, and the Sardinian troops that
came to succeed it, were liberally regaled at the
expence of the city. Our troops occupied the
citadel this morning, and the Austrians returned
to Lombardy.
FRANKYOKTI OCT. 7:---The Senate of Ifam-
burgh has passed a decree, ordering that citizens
of all Christian Sects shall he atimissible to

'(IXTRACT racist TUE 0111ENTAL SPECTATOR.)
Lately the Greeks have prevented the town of
Corinth from being re-victualled. Three Turkish
vessels of war, with three merchant-men laden
lvith provisions, had approached the shores of
Corinth. The citadel too hoisted the Ottoman
flag and fired a couple of cannon. The Pacha,
who defended the place, sent seine officers to
entreat them to land the provisions which they
lyqa escorting, and 15U horse went down imme-
'diately to protect, the landing all along the line or
space which separates the shore from the citadel.
Some Greeks placed, in an ambuscade were
obliged to retire, but soon after a large body of
about 2000 Greeks appeared advancing frona be-
bind the mountain with great rapidity. The 150
horse in the face of so superior a force abandoned
every thing and entered Corinth in full flight.
The Turkish sailors themselves bad only time
to re-embark, and the whole of the provisions
landed fell into the hands of the Greeks. The
Supreme Government. of Greece
,had named
an Ipsariot S Eparque of amos ; the latter, on
_ _

• -
able of indisposition, was Unable to repair to
this island, and the Ipsariots had, of their own
outhority, sent in his stead the famous Com-
mander of the Greek tire-ships, who presented
'himself to the people of Samos with two private
!.persons, his comrades. But the people of Samos
49.9 a drove
.them from the island,• telling them
they had no occasion for them : that they, re-,
quired neither the succour of the IpsariOts nor
4‘uropeart Greece to' enable them to defend
.themselves against all the, assaults of the
Turks : that they wished to be independent,
and that they recognised no superior authority.
The Iparque was of course obliged to return as
he Came to Ipsara,. where he imparted to the
r Senate the determination of the haughty people
of Samos, whom it was judged proper to block-
ade in their island, waiting, however, instruc-
tions from the Supreme Government.

PROCESSION OF LOUIS XVI
TO NOTRE DAME.

PARIS, OCT. 11-411 k. Louis X.dtti. was to
O
proceed yesterday to r Arfoo.. .
olden qhtir return thanks
for the happy result of, e Spanish cateipl procured an
admision to the CirOclietand sinessed the cony.
Every person who has been in Paris knows the Cathedral
Notre Dame; it is the Westminster Abbey of Paris • and
yes-
terday it was decorated with a magnificence worthy of it. The
streets leading to it from the Royal Palace, as I passed along,
presented to my eye beautiful specimens of the tapestry of
which France has so much reason to be proud.. The front of
the Cathedral was splendidly 'decorated ; and as I entered one
of the most ancient Churches of the Christian world, I felt awe
and veneration. The colunentt, the roof,; the choir, the gal-
leries, all built according' to the' moat perfect notions of that
species of architecture which is called GothiC, the antiquity of
:which gives an increased idea of religious solemnity, were ap-
propriately decorated. From the roof were suspended a great
number of lustres beautifully lighted, and over the centre of
the choir appeared elevated the canopy under which the King
of France was to humble himself before the King of Kings,
and to return thanks to the Author and Regulator of the Uni-
verse for the favours which he had been pleased to bestow upon
him, and upon his people.
Around in. the cbo:r were arranged seats for the Peers and the
Nobles, for the Ministers- and the Royal Attendants, for the
Members of the Chamber of Deputies, for the Judges, for the
Members of the University, for the Officers of' the Army, &c.
&c. In the various galleries were the Peeresses Ana Ladies of
various rank, each admitted by a special ticket. All was order
and magnificence--yet all was sacred and solemn.
From the grand portal to the choir a double row of soldiers
was stationed, anti formed a passage, along which the Monarch
of France and all the Grand Officers of his Civil and Military
Service were to proceed. From twelve o'clock aill' two were,
seen to arrive all the men of France remarkable for wealth, for'
talent, and for virtue, and they proceeded along the passage.
to their seats in the choir.
At two o'clock the cannon stationed near the Hospital of In.
valid* announced that the Royal Procession had left the Palace
of the Tuileries. The order was as follows
A party of the Gendarmerie of Paris.
'The whole of the Steffof the Place.
The Staff'Of the Division.
The Staff of the Royal Guard.
The Staffof the National Guard of Paris.
A sqiiedron of the same Guard.
Six carriages drawn each by eight horses, containing the
Officers of the Household belonging to their Royal Ilightiessess
Monsieur, to Madame, and to the Duchess de Berri.
Ten Carriages drawn by eight Horses, containing the Grand
- Officers of the Royal Houeehpld.
A squadron of the Htissars'of the Guard.
A squadron of the Body Guard. •
The superb Carriage of the King, in which were seen and wel.
corned with enthusiasm, His Alajesty and Madame the
Duchess d'AngOulenie seated at the back, and Mon-
sieur, and the Duchess de Berri in the front.
Four Carriages, containing the Ladies of p onour of their Royal
Iliglinesees Aletiatue and the Duchess of Berri.
A squadron of Grenadiers on horseback.
The appearance of the King and of the Royal Family was,
as the procession moved slowly on, hailed with acclamations of
enthusiastic joy. The carriage allowed a full view of the august
Family, and the people were sincere in the expression of their
feelings of gratulation and: of satisfaction..
The Royal cortege passed ,before the Statue of' Henry IV.
that beloved MOnarch, to whbse Memory the French people are
so much attached, and there the'King had the satisfaction of
beholding that the porters of the corn-market bad placed a
crown of gilt laurel, on the Statute ; at the feet of the Statute
was placed a bust of the Duke d'Aineoulenie, similarly crown.
ed. The- King saluted the Statue ofhis illustrious predecessor,
and the air re-echoed with acclamations of " Five le Roi, lea
Bourbons I
,Vise le Due. d'Angouleme 1".
At twenty minutes before three 'o'clock the loud clangour of
the great bell of the tower of' the Cathedral announced that the
King had entered the grand, portal. The sound of this bell,
whicar requires 10 men to ring et, was echoed by the vaults, the
drums of troops, and the shouts of chi: congratulating people
in front of the Church..
The Archbishop of Parie, clad hi his. Pontifical robes, and
wearing his mitre, preceded by the Clergy; time Chapter, and
Canons of the Cathedral, proceeded to meet .thee King at the
portal, and, according to the.ceremenial of the Romeo Catholic
lkeligion., presented incense to him. The Archbishop then
stated to his Malesty, that he was then entering the Temple of
;00, and that the occasion of his entrance was one, in which
,timedestine, of Providence were manifested; in behalfof religion
and its 'Ministers, he, thanked his Sovereign for having con.
'tributed to the fixed establishment of 'peace and concord, and
expressed their sincere wishes that his Majesty might live long
`and,
happy.. The King modestly replied, and attributed the
fortunate resulti of his arms soly, to the will of the great Ruler
of Mankind.—The Procession then Moved towards the Choir as,

As soon as the Kin;; had taken hiti niece, all was silence in
the Church, while ti,e Choir from the Eastern gallery began,
the Canticle To Drutil " Thee, Lord of. Hosts, we p.rease "
&c.) This !•iutilline Canticle, the composition of whichattrl-
buted to Bt. Ambrome and St. Augustin, was 'most excellently.
ichatinted by the singers selectee-from the Chapel Royal and.
the other Choirs. 'Then follovred the'2oth Pitalm, ,Eroutliut
Donainue, (it May the Lord hear thee"), which was followed
by an Antiphone and a short Prayer by the Archbishop. Then
the Anthem Demine,,lakorn fhr Regent ! (" 0 Lord, pre.
servo the King !") during which the soldiers bowed themselves
in military worship, zinti,ga;ye an increased interest to the. ith.

cited. The Archbishop then gave a solemn Benediction, and
his Majesty left the Church with the mite solemnities as at the
. ,
entrance.
Among the persons who had entered Notre Dame to return
thanks for the terminetioo of the Spanish war, there was one
for whose virtues all must entertain the most sincere admiretien,
for whose sail:rings c very geeerous bosom cannot but feelipity,
and in whose. happiness' the good of Over/nation feel a warm in.
truest-pit was the Daughter of Louis XVI. and of the purse.
cuted and calumniated Marie Antoinette. If the wishes of the
'benevolent and the prayers of the 'virtuous can contribute to
remove the inipreseionit of early sorrows which over.
whelmeti that noble.minded. Princess, there. is not a worthy
heart in France which does not beat in unison for that object.
I saw the Ditches* of Angduletne for the first time yesterday in
the Cathedral of Notre Dame. The recollections of the events
of the Lei.:to yeare passed rapidly before me. 1,110-morrow
years her excellent Mother perished on the. scaffold ; the in-
sults, the outrages, the brutalities which she had unergone,
were preeeet before, inn, while' I beheld the triumph of her
excellentDatiglity. It was the triumph, of the Daughter of
the late ill-fated lure, and -Queen of France, which I gazed
upon e I cave that Daughter whose, Parents had fallen by the
mat hinetions of infidelity.and treason, triumph in a Chnetian,
Church, anti as a Christian Princess, over the last remains of
'the fi`etioa which had dared to assail her Family, and to deepen
.her mut try.
Yesterdey was indeed a day of triumph: it was a triumph
of social eirder over touchy, of Christianity over infidelity, of
man a* in a state of eivilisatien over the wild .theories of
Ravage soeculatists : it was a triumph of the principles ofjos.
tice and of virtue over oppression and the basest passions. I
felt and I enjoyed the triumph ; as a 'craft er I enjoyed in
14'eanee ; lett liefote I left OM Cathedral of Notre Dame, I felt
my heart exclaini, " May the Council:, of my country be such
as never to render the riteatssity of such a triumph there impera-
tive on its people."
The King returned nel.r4 'Palace amidst the universal

SOUTH AMERICA, &c.

We have received some interesting Papers and
Letters from Caracas and Bogota, from wfiich we
subjoin the following translations:—
Extract of a Letter, dated Caracas, 'Aug. 12:—" I have to
congratulate you on-one of the most brilliant and successful
actions that has distinguished the present war, obtained by the
brave and deserving navel commander, D. Jose Padilla, in
the gulf of Maracaibo, on the 24th ult., which has completely
shaken the remaining hold of the Royalists on a small portion
of our country. I will not enter into details, as inclosed I
transmit you the official report of General Manrique, who has
also covered himself with glory in the command of the army of
operations against Morales, and the army with which he enter.
ed Maracaibo. Padilla had already acquired a reputation
for his skill and bravery in the siege of Certhagena, as well
as on other occasions ; but till now General Manrique had
no opportunity of knowing, that to an undaunted bravery
he added the other qualifications necessary for a Commander
in Chief. Ina word, these two officers have distinguished
themselves in a most remarkable manner, and from their ope-
rations the best results may be expected: even independent of
the respectable army, of Rio de la Ilacha, which was to join
them in a few days.'
BocioTa, JULY 7.—The present Congress, which opened
its sittings on the 9th of April, has been indefatigable in the
dispatch of public business, and, according to the progress
already made, the house will probably be ready to break up
towards the end of the ensuing month. A great deal of bust-
ness has, in, fact been got through, more particularly in the
beanches of Finance and War. The Petitions, Memorials,
Projects of Law, Decrees, Regulations, Codes, &c. presented
this year have been very numerous. It is thought the House
will disapprove of the nominations of some of the Public Func-
tionaries. That of the Marquis del Toro, as Intendant of
Venezuela, has been approved of. It is supposed that
General Montilla will retain his command ; others have been
changed, and it is not yet known who is to be the Intendant of
Cundinamarca. .Tlie authority which M. Zea stated he had
to open a Loan in Europe, has been disaVinved ; but
the payment of the legitimate debts, properly audited and
acknowledged, had been confirmed. On the same prin.
ciple, the contracts he entered into with Colonel Lens bps
been approved of, as well as those made with the persons be-
longing to the School of Mining and the Museum of
Natural History. Some reforms have also been introduced
into the tariff of charges in the Courts of Justice in ecclesi-
astical matters, in the direct taxes, in the manumission_law,
that of' sequestrations, national property, waste lands, the
organic law of the Army, Post-office, &c. Sonic alterations
have also been made in the College of Directors of the eleven
Bishoprics belonging to Colombia, and the projected arrange-
ments on this subject will end in the right of presentation
thereto being confided to the Executive Power. Rieux,
lainil, Coucha, and other officers of rank are waiting to be
tried. Pasto was lately taken by surprise by a body of In-
dians. The inhabitants fought in a most desperate man-
ner, and after tills misfortune, most of them emigrated to
Popayan.
Pnleanta. on la, SEPT. 14.—The captain of a schooner just
arrived from La Guira, reports, that the Royalists were dis-
mounting the artillery in Puerto Cavello, as it was supposed,
with a view to evacuate the place, which was no longer tenable
for them.
OFFICIAL DEPORT ALLUDED TO IN TILE PRECEDING
LETTER.
" Head-quarters in Altagracia, July 24,1023.
" TO GENERAL SOURLETTE, &e.
"After the intimation made to B. Jose Padilla, commander
of our squadron, by Capt. Laborde, commander of that of the
Spaniards, and of which you have already received due informs.
tion, our vessels anchored near Point Paltnas. The enemy com-
menced manceuvring, and yesterday morning he was descried
'Coming up in a line with our ships, which instantly prepared
for action, and offered battle. The Royalists declined, and
tried to save themselves by malting Ibr the coast of Maracaibo,
where several black flaps were flying. Our squadron, in the
little skirmishing that took place when the Royalists first came
up, had four killed, and nine wounded. We then anchored out
of gun-shot in front of the enemy, and in that position passed
the night.
" Whilst both squadrons .were in front . of each other, the
Commander of the enemies' division detached eleven_piroques,
with six hundred men, belonging to,the battalion of Valcnecy,
and some chasseurs, under the command of Colonel Narciso
Lopez, with an inter-uteri to land them on our side of the coast
near Points Leyva and Piedras, so as to co-opzrate with the
Squadron against us. They were, however, frustrated in their
attempts, fur being discovered- byour advance, I was enabled
to come up with the remainder of our division and cavalry at
two in the morning, and prepared to dislodge the enemy, in case
he had effected his landing. , .•
" We had now no other alternative left than to, make an
effort to destroy the enemies' Squadron at once, and having
agreed thereon, with Commander Padilla, embarked, and
placed at his disposal 900 men., offering; at the seine time, to go
on hoard myself with the remainder of the troops.
"At two in the afternoon, the vessels composing our squa-
dron gallantly weighed' anchor, and Commander Peddle, in
the brig Independent, placed himself at the head of the line.
I was a witness of his bravery anti skill in his manoeuvres, and
saw hint withstand,' with the greatest firmness, the several at-
tempts of the enemy to board init ; on which occasion, one of
their brigs and two schooners blew up. I witnessed this bloody
and obstinate action, fwhiCh lasted till night, and was decided
hi our favour. This ,is one of the most important actions
Colombia haa gained, and highly creditable to Commander
Padilla, who is still fighting with the redoubts of the town, in
pursuit of some of the enemies' vessels which have taken refuge
there.

" I cannot at present furnish the details to your Excellency,
as I have not yet received them ; nevertheless I am enabled to
state, that almost ull the enenries', vessels have fallen into our
. bands, and their number was double to ours. I cal-
culatc they have had about IWO killed and wounded. Ecc.
have the honour, tke.

EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

We have received by Express the Etoile of
Wednesday night and the Pilote of yesterday.
The Eloik contains a continuation of the Tele-
graphic Dispatch from Marshal LAURISTON, a
part of which only, it appears, was contained in
the Eloile of Tuesday, and was transferred
thence Into our columns.yesterday. We regret to
find from this additional intelligence that the pa.
triotic SAN Miouer. fell into the hands of the
French, mortally wounded. The Pilote brings
us a long Bulletin front Major-General Count
GUILtEMINOT, detailing the circumstances
tending the arrival of FERDINAND, and his family
at the Duke of Artoouratsues bead-quarters, and
the events immediately preceding and subsequent
to that important step. The infatuated monarch
immediately gave orders for the surrender of the
Island of Leon, Cadiz, and all the other Spanish
fortresses to the French troops ! The sth Freneh
corps titer. mee is to remain in possession of
Cadiz and the Isla ! The 3d corps accompanies
FERDINAND and the Prince Generalissimo in
their triumphant return to Madrid, and will pro-
bably be employed, with the reMainder of the
French Army, in occupying the principal forts,
the keys of which FERDINAND has so basely order-
ed to be placed in their hands. In this desperate
condition of the affairs of Spain, -some persons
have turned their eyes, with an expression of
lingering hope, to MINA and the brave Catalo.
nian army. The execrable Decree of FERDINAND,
banishing, it may be truly said, almost every
respectable man in Spain to a distance of fifteen
leagues from Madrid, and from every Royal resi-
dence,—the perfidious violence and precipitation
with which he has alceady broken all his promises
to the Consfitutionalists,—the eagerness with
which, it is evident, he is preparing to satiate his
thirst for vengeance with their blood,—and the
abject pusillanimity with which lie has vir.
tually surrendered the sovereignty of ill's do.
minions to the Duke of ANGOULEME, are cm.:
tainly calculated to induce the despairing Spa.
niards once more to rally around the flag of inde-
pendence, and to, make a last convulsive effort to
preserve themselves and their country from that
ruin which is already beginning to overwhelm
them. We regret, however, that we cannot par-
ticipate in these expectations. Any effort on the
part of MINA would now be in direct opposition
to the King's authority, and would subject not
only himself, but -all his followers to the full
penalties of rebellion, and even the innocent fawi.
lies and connections of the patriotic soldiers to
the unrestrained fury of an arbitrary and fere-
cious Government. It is not under such circum-
stances as these, and whilst a powerful foreign
artny,supported by all the resources of France, is
in actual possession of Spain, and is at a moment's
notice ready to over-run it in every direction,
that any reasonable hope can be entertained of
