FRENCH PAPERS.

( From the Etoile of Monday, Nov. 29.)

Coxs•rANTtxori.E, OCT. 25.—There is now no
more doubt with respect to the fate of the Cap-
tain Pacha ; his disgrace is certain ; it is given
out for illness, but he is expressly forbidden to
come to the capital. The son of the Viceroy of
Egypt, as we have already said, is his successor.
The Porte preserves silence respecting the ope-
rations of its new Admiral. M. Mintiacky has
not yet presented his credentials. Achmet Aga)
commanding the Turkish troops in Moldavia, has
had a Moldavian Officer beheaded; this event
has caused a great sensation among the Christian
Legations. It is said that the evacuation of
Moldavia is at length effected. 1t is certain
that the Porte has received the most disastrous
news from its armies in Thessaly.
PARIS, Nov. 28.—The Universal Gazette says
that M. Cousin, who has been implicated only by
the depositions of two Students, will be shortly
set at liberty. Count Bernstoff is still in the coun-
try. M. Cousin has been treated with the
greatest attention, and even permitted to ride
out in a carriage in Berlin.

• ( From 11w Moniteur.J
Lamm, Nov. 10.7-I'he Gazette of to.day
contains the following article :—M. Pe-
reira, Minister of Finance to his Majesty the
Emperor of Brazil, in a dispatch addres.
ed to the Board of Finance of the Pro-
vince of Bahia, founded on the appli-
cation made by an inhabitant of Bahia to obtain
at the estimated value a warehouse, the pro-
perty of a Portuguese emigrant of that city which
has been sequestrated, says that his Imperial
Majesty orders the said Board to be informed,
that the sequestration of the property of the
Portuguese emigrants is merely a measure of pre-
caution, the object of which is no other than to
oblige the Government of Lisbon to recognize
the independence of the Empire of Brazil, but
that as soon as this independence shall be recog-
nized, the property and the revenues of it will
be restored to their owners."

The same Journal makes the following reflec-
tions on the reasons gi:;.en by the Minister to
show thy, justice of the sequestration :
. .

" We do not find in any publicist the right which the Go-
vernment at Rio de Janeiro arrogates to sequestrate the pro-
perty of a private individual Who has nothing to do with the
question of the independence of Brazil, under the pretext of
forcing by these violent measures the Governinent at Lisbon to
recognize that at Rio de Janeiro. Besides, could the sacrifice
of some individuals constrain the bulk of the Nation to be
wanting in what it owes to its King? No; the effect of this
violence can only be to delay more and more the reconciliation
of the two countries : for the right of indemnity is never lost;
neither time nor revolutions can destroy it ; we see an exam-
ple of it in France, which is now making the greatest ef-
forts to indemnify the victims of the Revolution. Our fio.
vernment is so sensible of the force of these two truths, that
though it has on its hands the means to indemnify itself in the
most ample manner, It not only does not make use of them,
but on the contrary grants to the Brazilians and their property
di;: same protection that it atilolls to the Portuguese.

Anosuunc, Nov. 2,2.—We have received let-
ters from ConstantinOple of the 25th October.
The Captain Pacha is dangerously ill ; accord-.
lug to some. accounts lie is dead. The Sultan
1144 nominated Ibrahim Pachu, the son of the
Viceroy of Egypt, Generalissimo of the Army
and Navy of the Ottoman empire. But it is
generally thought toat this is a mere trick of the
Divan to draw this young Chief to Constani-
nople, where he would soon be got rid. of. It is
mit very likely, however, that he will fall into
it ; but if he takes cure of himself, which is by
no means certain, for it is not known where he
is at present, he will without doubt return to
,Egypt. M* anwhile the Divan is spreading a
report that the 14;sses of the Ottoman fleet are by
no means so great as they have been represented.
Two frigates and a brig have succeeded in saving
Altemselyes under cover of the cannon of the
Dardanelles, hut these probably are the last
ships that will reach the place, the Greeks now
tieing masters of the sea. By the latest news it
Cppvars that they burnt, on the 15th October,
two more Turkish frigates.
