GERMAN PAPERS.

LEr.,nonN, OCT. 21.--For the past week there has been
r4ew case of chole:•a here, or in any other part of Tus-
cany ; we may, ther.efore, hope that we are now delivered
from this dreadfr:l visitation. It was particularly terrible
lere, where the people are so ill-informed that they did not
Inow lifJw to protect themselves against the opinion pro-
llonner,d by a great part of the physicians, that the disorder
was ;.n the highest degree contagious, and abandoned them-
sel to the greatest terror. One would be tempted to con-
ruler as still worse than the physicians, who took flight, those
-who prepared themselves a harvest from such seed, and, as
it often happened, exacted exorbitant payment for their me-
dical attendance. There were several shocking cases of
,patients who, abandoned by everybody, even their nearest
Telations, miserably perished ; others in which persons still
living awoke from temporary lethargy, and found themselves
surrounded with the dead. Without pretending to decide
the question of contagious or not contagious, I can only
affirm, that for one case in which contagion might be sus-
pected, there were ten in which there were no traces of it.
Of twenty-six men, who were employed in conveying
the sick to the hospitals, and of the attendants in
the hospitals, not one died, or was even attacked by
the disorder. In almost the cases some pre-
ceding irregularity in the diet, or excessive fear weaken-
ing the digestive powers could be shown. The most rigid
seclusion did not avail several distinguished Jewish families ;
the disorder reached them as well as others. The Duchy
of Lucca still persists in maintaining a rigorous sanitary
cordon, thinking that it has secured itself against the dis-
order, for the physicians there who preach the doctrine of
contagion are the oracles of the Government.
The Portuguese frigate and corvettes are still here. A
smaller man-of-war which came in with them has already
left, us, and will be followed by the others in a few days.
A. French brig has come to our harbour for the winter.
Our atmosphere is clear and serene, but the cold weather
las set in unusually early, and the Appenines are already
covered with snow.

CONSTANTINOPLE, OCT. 7.—The Turkish Gazette has
published the particulars of the suppression of the insur-
rection in Scutari.

This Gazette contains also an article on the audience
given to Lord Durham, and to Baron Von Sturmer, the
Austrian Internuncio. On the 2d of this month the Reis
Effendi gave an entertainment to the Sultan, at his sum-
mer residence at Balta Liman, which was succeeded in the
evening by splendid fireworks.
Count Alexander Von Strogonoff, the Prussian General,
who was sent to Greece, to compliment Kin.- Otho, on his
assuming the reins of Government, returned to this city on
the 3d, in a Russian steam-boat, and intends to go in a few
(lays to Odessa. He received from King Otho the Grand
Cross of the Order of the Redeemer, not only for himself'
but also for his father, who was formerly Russian Ambas-
*ador to the Porte. Wassaff Effendi lately arrived here,
and was summoned by the Sultan to give the particulars of
the late events at Scutari.

The Greek Patriarch has been very unexpectedly de-
prived of his dignity.
The plague unhappily continues to spread.
