FRENCH PNVERS.

The Non-Official part of thf!_47oniteur contains
-the Report made to the Chamber of Peers by the
Marquess de Pastoret, in the name of a Special
Committee, appointed to examine the project for
the total and septennial renewal of the Chamber
of Deputies, in the Sitting of A pril, 1822.—This
Report fills nearly eight closely printed columns.
The Etoile, dated Wednesday, gives the fol-
lowing analysis of it :—The Committee has ex-
amined this project under two principal points of
-view, the integral renewal and the septennial
duration. After discussing these two questions,
the Committee has examined another of a higher
nature, with respect to the Constitutional Charter.
The defenders of the partial renewal say, that
liberty is better preserved by frequent elections.
The defenders of the integral renewal answer,
that it is the only means that can shew the desire
and the wish of the whole nation. After ma-
turely examining and discussing these two opi-
nions, the Committee has thought that the inte-
gral renewal was to be preferred. It has not
founded its decision merely on the motives that
have just been mentioned, it has considered the
question in higher and more important lights—
the enactment of the laws, the stability of insti-
tutioni, the advantages which would result from
it to the Government of the King, to the public
repose, and the happiness of the French.
For the enactment of the laws.—With a partial
renewal, it will be difficult to attain the neces-
sary improvements in the Legislation.
The stability of the laws and institutions.—ln-
Tstitntions should be adapted to the character of
-e,e people that receive them, and the perma-
-eence of public bodies, or their longer duration,
-tablishes better the fixedness of doctrines, and
the permanency of the laws ; besides, the Go-
vernment is freer in its means, it is stronger when
it has around it for several years those with
;whom, or in whose presence, it can discuss the
great interests of the state.

By a partial renewal, the public administration,
less sure of the future situation in which new elec.
tions may place it, loses its activity because it
loses its confidence in its own duration.

After maturely considering these two questions,
the Noble Marquess quoted the example of Eng-
land, which, a century ago, adopted a bill which
has so much analogy with the project of law now
laid before the Chamber.

• Coming to the strongest objection, that of the
Charter, M. de Pastoret demonstrated, that there
are iu that constitutonal act regulatory articles.
ne concluded by declaring that the Committee
was unanimously of opinion that the projects hould
ibe adopted.
The Doife states that his Excellency the Mi-
nister of War is having comparative trials made
xt Toelonse, Douay, Metz, and Strasburg, he-
t ween the English, French, and modified Eng-
lish system of artillery, with the view of adopt-
ing that which shall appear to produce the greatest
advantage in war.

[The French Papers are chiefly filled with accounts of
the discussion in the Chamber of Deputies on Monday, on the
projec• fo- reducin.• the Rentes. M. Bordeau spoke against
,
trio measure, and implored the Ministry not to compromise the
prosperity and happiness of France by financial projects con-
trary to good faith.—M. de Louvigny defended the measure as
Lot being contrary to good faith, and as tending still further to
therease the prosperity of France.—M. Sanlot-Baguenault made
a long speech against the law, saying it would augment the
amount of the capital of the national debt.—M. Pavy supported
tie law, anti contended, that circumstances could never be
snore favourable than at present for carrying it into execution.
Gen. Thiars was against the law, because it was unjust, im-
moral, and. mipolitic.—M. Syrceys de Mayrenhac supported
the ptoject as Just, useful, tending to diminish the interest of
woncy, and to maintain public credit.—M. Leclerc de Beau.
lieu'opposed the project, and M. Ricard (of the Department of
kto•Ate Garonne) supported it. All the speeches were ordered
ttl he printed. .The discussion was to be continued on Tuesday,
and would not close, it was expected, till Thursday.]

TUE GREEKS

(EXTIIACT OF A PRIVATE LETTER.)

fr tt i ESTE, A Pit Ir, 6. [,otters from Corfu, of
the middle of March, say, that fresh instructions are expected
from London, relative to various important subjects connected
with the relations with the Greeks. It is generally believed
that these instructions will be favourable to the Greek cause.
according to these same letters, the English ships of war, sta..
tipned in the lonian seas, havebeenauthorized to seize on armed
Algerinc vessels, even those which bear the Ottoman flag.
By accounts equally worthy of credit, Prevesa and Vonezza
are still garrisoned by the Turks. Constantine Bozzaris threat-
ened those places when coming from Vrachori ; he had passed
thAspropolamo to advance along the right bank of the river;
but he continued his march along the east side of the Gulf of
A rta, by Viccha and Coprena. Bozzaris, surrounded by some
AliJanians, has taken possession of Arta ; but his troops are not
se,icicutly numerous to allow hint to undertake any bold en-
enterpriu._ _ _ _

Uri the left bank of the Aspropolamo some Greek detach-
ments have pushed to Rontina and Pekelos, where they have
liked themselves. This position will be of great importance to
them, as soon as- they have commenced offensive operations
against Tbessaly. But they cannot do this so long as LThea is
nut conquered. nor Patras and Lepanto taken. (Here again we
bave,'unhappily, a contradiction of the. Allgrfanthic Zeilung,
whin h has announced that both these places were taken.)
Diamante, ~v;io was engaged, first in the north part of Negro-
pont,.aid afterwards in the Peninsula of Cassandra, is again at
010, ‘.flicre the Greeks have been for some time employed in
tt: aking entrenchments. The Turkish corps, which observes
them, ilas fallen back as far as Valestina. All the inhabitants
of the mountains between Pialamona and Alessona are under
r-ein, and ready to make a diversion in favour of the Greeks.—
The Turks have not yet dared to attack them.

AUGSBURG, APRIL 7.—(Private Correspond-
ence.)—Some of our politicians fear that the ob-
atinacy of the Divan in' not complying with the
demands of Russia, conformably with the stipu-
lations of the Treaty of Bucharest, is to be as-
cribed to a Convention said to have been con-
cluded in 1522, by which Austria and England
are stated to have guaranteed the integrity of the
Ottoman empire, and that therefore Russia can-
not make war on the Porte without the consent
or the participation Of these two Powers. Intel-
ligence has been received that the English Ad-
mirel.has required of the Regencies of Tunis and
Tripoli what part they mean to take in the pre-
sent state .of -hostility between England and Al-
giers. Their answer has been very simple—they
hate cl.ciared that the Ley of Algiers, not hav-
ing consulted them when he insulted the English
Constilohey would not interfere in the matter,
and consequently, maintain a .fitrict neu-
tralify• ritlis resolution is the more remarkable,
.:4s secret agents from Constantinople brought
positive orders from the• Sultan to assist the
Rogency of Algiers with all their power in .the
:wiliest in wi:ich it is-engaged.
