EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

At a late hour we have received the Journal
des Dasats of Thursday
and the E toile of yes-
day, from which we subjoin extracts. The Journal
des D6bats positively disclaims any warlike views
obooastths if
the
thatimrt
of the French Government, and
France did feel a disposition to
equip fleets and send out armies, she would
do so without asking the consent of any other
Power. Perhaps not. Circumstances, however,

must be greatly altered since this. time last year,
when she applied to a Congress for permission to
adopt measures which she declared to be neces-
sary for her own internal peace and security

( From use Journal des Dallis of Thursday.)

PARIS, JAN. 28.—The Opposition Journals
yesterday took an alarm, and declared that the
French troops were going to re-enter Spain, and
that Baron d'Eroles was going to take possession
of Barcelona. Some stated that we were going
to send ships and regiments from Brest, Rochfort,
and Toulon. What can all these reports mean ?
It is at the moment of the elections that the
public spirit is to be agitated with reports of
imaginary warfare; but these manoeuvres will
not succeed. Our troops will not return to
Spain, where none are wanted. In regard
to the armaments in our ports, we repeat
it again for the seventh time, that it is the
invention of the Opposition. Twelve hundred
troops of the line, according to the new system,
are going to complete the garrisons of Guadeloupe
and Martinique, and to replace the Colonial
Battalions. If France should think fit to equip
fleets, and to embark soldiers on board of them,
she will not ask permission nor make excuse to
any person.—The poor Opposition ! They are
very sick
The Minister of Marine has established a
Commission to consult on the best method for the
Projects for arming ships of war, and improve-
ments in the Ports.

To-day after Mass the King presided at a Coun-
cil of Ministers, which lasted from 12 o'clock till
half-past one. Prince Frederick Alexander
Francois Constantine, third son of William of
Wurtemberg, died on the night of the 22d Jan.
FRANKFORT, JAN. 24.--News direct from
Missolunghi of the 10th Dec. confirms that the

blockade has been raised, and the Turks lost
before that place 3,000 men, all their artillery'
and ammunition. Omer Pacha has retired to
Janina.; but it is said he is made a prisoner ita

one of the houses by his own troops, because he
has not payed thorn,

PERpiGN AN, JAS. 29.—The Constitutional
troops, which were in cantonments in pursuance
of the treaty of Nov. 2, have been disbanded by
Baron Eroles. From Tarragona to Barcelona the
same operation will take place undei• the orders
of Gen. Sarsfield for the garrison of Ilostalricly,
cantoned at San Felice de Guxoles : the whole
of the disbanding has been executed with the
greatest order. Their number exceeds 12,000
men. There does not remain any longer an
army, as they have all returned to their homes..'
The Royalist force for this province will be
15,000 men. Means are taken to keep a goad
Police in the several towns.

The Paris Papers of Tuesday and Wednesday
do not contain any intelligence of importance,
except the following Proclamation of Sir TnomAs
MAITLAND, on a violation of the lonian territory
by the Greeks :
CORFU, DEC. 27.—Sir T. MAITL Nn, Lord
High Commissioner of the lonian Islands, arrived
here to.day from Malta (having touched at Zante
and Cephalonia), and issued the following Pro-
clamation
Sir T., &c. &c.

" Whereas; on the 10th and 12th instant, one of the most
flagrant violations of territory was committed in the islands of
St. Maura and Ithaca, on the part of some armed Greek ves-
sels, which vessels were under the command of a man called
.31aurocordato, and that in opposition to every recognized prin-
ciple of neutrality and the right of nations; his Excellency the
Lord High Commissioner of his Majesty is; with a sovereign
displeasure, forced by his duty to order, that the two islands
above mentioned should immediately be put, with reference to
the other lonian Islands, in a state of quarantine for 30 days.
The Inspector-General of the Sanitary Department is charged
to transmit immediately the necessary orders to this effect.
" Ills. Excellency feels real pain at the inconveniences and,
losses which must necessarily result from this measure; and
what renders it still more afflicting is, that we ought least of
all to expect to see the lonian -Government compromised and
insulted by men who declare that they fight for their liberty,
and thus rendered an accomplice, if the fact had not been ,
noticed, of those terrible and odious atrocities which on this
occasion and several others have signalized the parties engaged
in the present war.
" Palace of Corfu, Dec. 20.

" By order of his Excellency,
" FREDERICK. HA Mal',
" Secretary to the Lord High Commissioner."

Private Letters from Constantinople, of the
31st December, state, that the extraordinary de-
liberations of the Divan have termivated in a
complete change of Miniotty, including the fa-
mous REIS EFFENDI, who has not,however, been
entirely disgraced, but obliged to change situa#
tions with SADIK EFFENDI, the late liiaja-Bey,
or Minister of the Interior. The Grand Vizier
ALr Pacun has been banished to Gallipoli,
where he awaits his fate, and has been succeeded
in that important office by GArAu EFFENDI, who
commanded the camp on the Bosphorus. He i 5
supposed to be of the moderate party, yet his
first measure was to propose the immediate forma-
tion of an army of 80,000 men, of which
the Janissaries are to form part, to be marched
into the Peloponnesus. The Aga of the Janis-
saries has been promoted to the command of the
Camp on the Bosphorus, and his Lieutenant
Kour.-KIHAGALLT appointed Aga in his place.--
In general the change of Ministry comprehends
the moderate party.

This measure is said to have been occasionca
by the consternation into which the attack of the
Greeks on Smyrna, the second city of the Eol"
pire, had thrown the Turks, and the rage into
which it put the Grand Seignior.
The isle of Scio is reported to have beconle
again the theatre of bloody scenes, the C
having effected a landing, and driven the Tut.l,o
into the fortress.


Advices from Malta of tl►e 20th December
state that the British squadron, consisting of s►/g"
ships, was to sail for Tunis on the following
morning. The SNbelle frigate had arrived at
Malta on tl►e preceding Sunday, and the Alacl'!'
brig of war had just come in at the date of the
advices. If his Highness the BEY, therefore,llo
refused to set at liberty the Greeks who were
seized when under the protection of the Britis
flag, a►► attack has probably before this beep
made upon his capital.

We have this morning received Jamaica Papers

following

(From the Courant of Dec. 22.)

-1)1"sed with the necessity of imparting religious

trite following account of the continued series
Id' deceptions practised upon some poor mis-
guided wretches in Britain, by the agents of that
adventurer, M'Gregor, has been received, dated
(2Gt h nit :
" The brig Albion, Fisher, from London, is
at anchor off the Keys, but cannot get in
iii account of the N. W. winds. M'Gregor's de-
lens I believe will never end, for it is understood
that the Admiral of the Poyais fleet is on board.

Persons on board for Poyais ; among them the
