THE N

Bnussni4 Aug. 27.-7 A Royal Decree, of the
16th of this month, forbids the persons who have
the management of the churches from interfering
in any matters which are not expressly confided
to them by the existing laws and. ordinances.—
Among the articles of this Decree ace the fol.
lowing
" New chorales or edifices destined for public worship can-
not be built, nor can those now existizgAe rebuilt ear altered
without his Majesty's
previous consent. Those who have the
management of the churches shall make onlytherevairs neces.
sary for the preservation of the edifices.

" All applications for leave to build, re.huild, or alter these
edifices, or do any work to them beyond what is necessary to
keep them in proper repair, must be accompanitsi with a state-
ment of the expences, and of the means winch can be employed
to meet them.
" No new religion.. communities shall be established without
his Majesty's consent; and all applications for that consent

which are not the property of private persons, or particular so.
claim shall be taken down, removed, or alienated or disposed

4"lhe Prince and Princess of Orange are expected here on

eirvette, have sailed for the coast of Chile and Peru."

Extracts from the Paris Papers of Saturday,
and the Elate of Sunday, will be found In oar
preceding columns. FroMthe way In which the
the King of FRANCE is spoken of in
s of the Molly, it Is evident that
health,c pa ofr t.now
the Courtiers who surrounded his MosT CURIO*
TIAN MAJESTY think it necessary That they
should begin to prepare the public mind for his
early dissolution. Let that melanCholy event
occur when It may, it will probably occasion no
change in the policy of France, nor in the com-
position and spirit of the French Cabinet. IW.
ne Vir.r.t.r,r. is in fact the Minister of the suc-
cessor to the throne; and the continuance of his
system of government may therefore be regarded
as certain. The present King of FIIANCE will
leave behind him the memory of a reign, and of
private virtues, which have only been stained
by the iniquity of the Spanish invasion, by
the duplicity and had faith which preceded
that outrageous aggression on the rights and
territory of a great and unoffending nation,
and by the calamities to which that unpro-
voked outrage has given birth. The Monarch
who really deserved the glorious distinction of
being called the 'Pacificator of France has,
therefore, under the pretext of seeking for the
title of the Pacificator of Spain, thrown that ill-
fated country into a state of irretrievable confu-
Sion and irremediable misfortune,—has endan-
gered the, future tranquillity and prosperity of
France herself,—and has sown in the Peninsula
the possible germ of convulsions, revolutions,
and wars throughout all Enrope.

The advices from all quarters, including Con-
stantinople itself, received not only through the
medium of the French Papers, but in this country
direct, all concur in stating that the Greeks have
re-captured Ipsara,—that the original defence of
that island by its inhabitants was most heroic,
that the last great action of its self-devoted
defenders was to Involve themselves and mul.
titudes of their barbarous enemies in a COOL.
