(From the French Papers of Monday.)

Yesterday, the Danish Minisier had an audience of the
King, to deliver letters notifying the death of Prince Wil-
liam of Hesse Philipsthal Barchfeld, husband of the Princess
Julia Sophia of Denmark, on which account his Majesty
will go into mourning for five days.
The Ilfenzorial Bordelais of, the 12th inst. has the fol-

lowing from St. Jean Pied-de-Port, of the 7th

." Zuma-

lacarregui manifested the native ferocity of his character a
few days ago, at Villafranca. A certain number of Ur-
banos, who were surprized in that town, had only time to
take refuge in a church, with their wives and children. Zu-
malacarregui set fire to the place, and the wretched people
perished in the flames. During the progress of the confla-
gration some women, followed by their children, left their
retreat to implore the clemency of the General, but being
perceived by other women, they were immediately put to
death, and horribly mutilated.
The Election of Bordeaux states, that Lorenzo, who was
at Pampeluna without any command, has been appointed
Viceroy of Navarre, ad interim, by General Mina.
Extract of a letter, of the 28th ult., from Stockholm :
" The committee of the constitution has referred to the

High Court the whole of the King's Council, as having vio-
lated that provision in the constitution which declares that
no bill, once rejected, can he brought in again during the
same Diet, by delivering the Royal message to the States
on the subject of the foreign loan. The committee, how-
ever, has made a misapplication of the law. The King's
message is not a reproduction of an affair of the present
Diet. The King proposed this loan at the close of the
Diet of 1830. The four orders highly approved of it, and
solicited and obtained the Royal sanction to it. The loan
not having been realized, because the bank commissioners
. did not think the tenders acceptable, the delay was taken
ajv.,:cage of to obtain from the States a vote, declaring that
they withdre.:7 their assent to the loan. But as the King
cannot, without the i;`Qcnt of the States, make any legisla-
tive act, neither can the 5tat.,7.... without the sanction of the
King, abrogate any act that may been made. His
Majesty, therefore, knowing the law of 18L' fl tp be in force,
and that it could not be annulled but by a new lam, ;rnt the
Royal message ; but the Opposition has succeeded in ;;;.-
clueing the committee, by a majority of 10 against 8, to con-
sider the Royal message as a resumption of an affair of this
Diet. Facts prove the contrary ; nevertheless, this majo-
rity of two votes has been produced, and the ridiculous im-
peachment must take place."
The Prussian State Gazette quotes the funds at Berlin

The Augsburg Gazette of the 11th inst. has the follow-
ing from Constantinople of the 18th ult. :—" Hope was
entertained that Syria was tranquil and the excitement of
the people allayed, but according to the latest accounts they
were for the most part in a state of insurrection. In the
first half of the last month a rising took place in Aleppo,
where daily executions had occasioned universal indignation.
It was only suppressed after several sanguinary conflicts,
and the number of executions was then increased. About
the same time the people revolted in Beirout. The Egyp-
tians again obtained the mastery, but not without the loss
of many of their men. A few days later the whole popu-
lation of the Kesroan, a part of Anti-Lebanon, broke
out into open conflict, and threatened to intercept the
communications of the Arabian troops. This would
have been done had not the Emir of the Druses, hasten-
ing to their assistance, decided the victory in their favour.
He was in consequence rewarded by Ibrahim, and entrusted
with the surveillance of that part of the country, where the
people are still in a state of warfare with their oppressors,
although with diminished force. The Egyptians, with the
corps of the Druses under the command of the Emir were
about 14,000 strong, and have recently received a reinforce-
ment of 5,000. Redschid Pasha, on first receiving accounts
of this state of affairs, deemed it advisable to concentrate his
army on the borders of Adana, and to make arrangements
which left no reason to doubt of a speedy breaking out of
hostilities between the troops of the Sultan and the Vice-
roy. These circumstances gave rise to a premature report
that the Turkish General had actually passed the frontier,
and had attacked Ibrahim, who in fact is in a state of pre-
paration for battle. 'Both armies are in presence, and may
come to an engagement at a moment's notice, and it
would be likely to take place if the Egyptians should not
succeed in quelling the insurrectionary spirit of the peo-
ple. An idea may be formed of the painful anxiety which
prevails in this capital, and the apprehensions which are
entertained lest peace should be broken. The transport
of troops to Asia is still continued with the greatest acti-
vity, and a regular interchange of couriers will very
shortly be established from Scutari to the head-quarters
of Redschid Pasha, in order that the Sultan may obtain
speedy information of what is going on. Several ships
of war are being fitted out, and will set sail for Smyrna,
to watch this coast, inasmuch as Egyptian ships have been
seen there. The admonitions of the French Consul in
Alexandria to the Viceroy to change his conduct towards
the Porte, and to discontinue his oppressions in Syria, have
remained without effect, for the people are still oppressed,
and Ibrahim has taken up a menacing position at Tauris.
Mehemet Ali has not abandoned his design of declaring his
independence." This journal has the following from Naples
of the 2d :—" The French Ambassador, General Scbas-
tiani, has not been able to change the sentiments of the
King relative to the constitution ; nevertheless, the so-often-
talked-of alliance of the Princess Mary with the brother of
the King is again the subject of conversation. It is an
error to suppose that the King has been hitherto withheld
by personal considerations, when he refused to give his con-
sent to this marriage. On the contrary, he is greatly
attached to all his relatives, and never fails to speak of his
aunt, the Queen of the French, with great respect ; but has
felt it his duty to sacrifice his private feelings to what he
deems the good of his people. It is thought that the bar-
rier against revolutionary principles, which the love of his
people has erected, might be endangered, if not altogether
destroyed, by a closer family alliance with France. The
scarcely yet cicatrized wounds of 1820 cannot be forgotten."
