[From the Etoile of Saturday, June 19.]
PARIS, JUNE 18.—The Duke of Sao Carlos,
late Spanish Ambassador at Paris, is appointed
Viceroy of Navarre.
M. Lebrun, Due de Plaisance, has just died at
the age of 86, at his estate of St. Mesme, near
Dourdan. The Duke of Plaisance was succes-
sively a Member of the States-General, of the
Constituent Assembly, and of the Council of the
Ancients, Third Consul, Prince Arch-Treasurer
of the Empire, Governor-General of Liguria, of
Holland, &c. &c.
The following are extracts of a letter received
from the Captain of a merchant ship, recently
come from Guinea and the Senegal :
" The Local Government, says he, is mild and paternal, and
.its Chief occupies himself incessantly in promoting the happi.
ness of his subjects. Thanks to his zeal and activity, the sys-
tem of colonizing loses from (lay to day its enemies, and soon
the banks of the Senegal will be covered with plantations of
sugar, cotton, coffee, cloves, bananas, &c." The same writer
adds, "I have eaten at the Government gardens, good sugar
canes, excellent banana figs; I have alsO seen immense
kitchen gardens, and mostly all the French fruit trees, in a
high state of vegetation—the fig, the caper, the pistachio, the
olive, the pomegranate, and the jubube trees; which were
brought from Provence, about the end of the year 1823, at the
expence of the Government, at my departure gave the most en-
couraging_prospect. At Daguna there is a garden, which the
French officer commanding that post has caused to be cultivat-
ed, and which is destined for the garrison of that fort. The
land in places, at the distance of from 30 to 40 leagues from St.
Louis, ,is not of sand, but of a fertile soil, of different strata,
which the river deposits when retiring, after its inundations."

.ZANTE, MAY 16.—Letters from Smyrna to the
2d instant say, that the Asiatic Turks signalized
their passage through that city by the massacre
ef a great number of Christians, both Greeks and
Catholics. The French Consul complained on
account of the latter, but obtained No satisfac-
tion. After these proofs of their ferocity, they
embarked at Scala Nueva for Samos, of which
none of those who disembarked at Port Vathi have
brought back any news. Thus, the Samians have
again chastised the assassians of the Christians of
Sinyrna. A part of the fleet of the Captain Pacha
went towards the Gulf of Salonica ; a cannonade
was heard, from which nothing favourable to the
Turks was augured, particularly as the bazars in
Smyrna had been shut up for two days.

(From the Constitutionneh)
Paola, JUNE 18.—The note of Lord Strang-
ford is hostile to Greece ; but if England thus
sacrifices Greece to the projects of Russia, there
can be no doubt that Russia sacrifices to the
commercial interests of Great Britain the honour
.of the Monarchical principle. Thus the present
policy of Europe is to liberate South America and
rnake Greece dependent.
In the Secret Meeting of the Chamber of De-
puties the day before yesterday, the proposition
of NE de Jaultowitz that those Deputies should
vclcate their seats who accept 'Offices removable on
he pleasure of the Crown, was agreed to be
taken into consideration almost unanimously.—
Di. de Villele is said to have voted for it. In the
same Sitting, M. Dubotderu complained of the
Reporter of the Journal des Nbats for not giv-
ing a correct account, and moved that he should
be expelled. The -motion was opposed by M.
de. la.Bo.urdonnaye, and was not carried.
