GERMAN AND DUTCH PAPERS.

MUNICH, Nov. 2l.—This morning, at six o'clock, his
Majesty the King set out on his intended journey to
Greece. M. Von Mieg, Minister of State, is to follow the
King to-morrow, and to meet him at Ancona on the 2d of
December. An English steamboat and frigate are ready
at Ancona to convey his Majesty to Greece. The Govern-
ment Gazette, just published, contains a notification to the

effect that his Majesty has given directions to the Ministers
respecting the conduct of the Government during his Ma-
jesty's absence with extensive powers, and has likewise
ordered that the sittings of the Council of Ministers, and
of the Council of State, shall be continued as usual.
Faom PRUSSIA, Nov. 18.—Letters from Russia say that
Lord Durham was received by the Emperor Nicholas at
Kiew with great distinction, and that his Majesty mani-
fested the same regard that he formerly entertained for his
Lordship. Thoug his stay at Kiew was so short the
Emperor invited his Lordship to dinner, and had ani•
mated conversations with him both before and after din-
ner. Lord Durham seems to have left Kiew highly
satisfied, rejoiced at the manner in which the Emperor
received him. It cannot be doubted that Lord Durham
is the person best qualified to represent England at St.
Petersburgh. He is liked at Court, and so perhaps
he may succeed in putting an end to the coldness which,
according to the Journals, subsists between the Cabinets
of Russia and England. The speech which the Emperor
Nicholas made to the Municipality of Warsaw causes a
great sensation here. It was reported the Emperor subse-
quently said to another deputation that the Poles still
cling to their nationality, and did not properly appreciate
the good fortune of belonging to Russia ; that they flat-
tered themselves with false hopes of independence, and in
this illusion had recourse to all illegal means. They were
not ashamed to print and circulate in Poland libels against
him and the Russian nation. The Emperor is said to have
added, that he knew all that passed in Poland, and did not
wish to be obliged to have recourse to rigorous measures ;
he, therefore, spoke plainly, and endeavoured to warn the
intriguers of Warsaw (in the persons of their natural re-
presentatives), as it was they principally who procured pro-
hibited writings from foreign countries.

It is undoubtedly true that many party pamphlets, printed
in England and France, the object of which is to keep the
minds of the people in a state of fermentation, are conti-
nually brought to Poland, and, with all the vigilance of
the authorities, it seems impossible to prevent this kind of
traffic.

ODESSA, OCT. 27.—The journal of Odessa gives the
following news from Constantinople, without a date :
" The army of the Taurus has received a new plan of
operations. It is thought that it will le entirely employed
in effecting the complete reduction of the Koords, and in
introducing the same reforms as in the other parts of the
empire. There are some difficulties in this twofold object,
but they are not insuperable ; and the talents of Redschid
Pacha, with the immense means at his command, insure
the success of his important task. A great part of the
Albanians have sent in their submission, and immediately
obtained their pardon ; another part is on the point of fol-
lowing their example. The most obstinate, after being re-
peatedly defeated by the Sultan's troops, have retreated into
the defiles, Where they have entrenched themselves ; but
they are too much exhausted and destitute of resources long
to maintain their positions, however strong they are by na-
ture. It is even affirmed they are already negotiating with
the Pacha of Scutari."

ODESSA, Nov. 3.—Count Strogonoff having performed
quarantine here on his return from Greece, set out, on the
28th of October, for St. Petersburgh.
The reigning Princess of Moldavia has passed three days
here, and made an excursion by water, in which she was
saluted by several ships.
A letter from Galacz, of the 21st of October, says :
" Here and at Brailow (Ibraila) a great number of ships,
chiefly Greek and Turkish, have come to take in corn, but
the constant rain has so retarded the arrivals from the in-
terior, that we ourselves are suffering from scarcity.
CONSTANTINOPLE, OCT. 12.—Private accounts from
Greece to the 16th of October arc of such a nature, that
one would believe that only a Deus ex ltrachind could pro-
long the life of the new kingdom. The number of persons
forming the best part of the Greek nation, who have al-
ready emigrated to the Ottoman Empire, is stated at
4,000 rich subjects. It is easy to imagine that the situa-
tion of the Greek Ambassador, Zographos, becomes more
and more difficult. The Divan endeavours to put off every
shift that might lead to a definitive arrangement with the
new kingdom, in order, by increasing the discontent that
prevails, to entice more and more of the Greeks to follow
the above example. Neither the formation of a body guard
for the King under the name of Phalanx, nor the compo-
sition of the Council of State, had satisfied the minds
of the people of Athens, and discontent was gaining
ground. At the same time banditti everywhere infested
the country, and murders were committed in the vicinity
of Athens.

CONSTANTINOPLE, OCT. 27.—Accounts to the 19th of
this month have been received from the camp of Redschid
Pacha at Diarbekir, which state that the subjection of the
Koords was proceeding successfully. The regular and irre-
gular troops were engaged in assisting to introduce the new
organisation and reforms among those warlike tribes, and no
resistance was anywhere manifested.

BRUSSELS, Nov. 27.—For some time past there have
been passing through Brussels a considerable number of
Belgian, Dutch, and Prussian volunteers enlisted for Por-
tugal, who are then sent to Spain and discharged.
The Chamber of Representatives continued on the 26th
and 27th the debate on the project of law for increasing
the import duty on cattle coming from Holland.
VIENNA, Nov. 13.—The Milan Journal gives a singular
piece of intelligence, dated Ancona the sth Nov. It is
stated that the lonian steam-boat had brought letters from
Greece, whi h announce that the country was in complete
insurrection, and that King Otho and Count Armansperg,
with the Bavarian troops, had fled from Athens.

VIENNA, 'Nov. 19.—Since the 16th steam navigation
over the Danube has been stopped on account of the cold.

FRONTIERS OF POLAND, Nov. 14.—The Emperor, as
it has been seen by documents already published, has im-
posed the condition of following the Greek religion upon
all the great Officers whom he has endowed with territo-
rial concessions. The condition proves the Emperor's in-
tention of drawing nearer to each other the Polish nation
and the Russian people. At the time of the conquest of
Poland, Volhynia, and Podolia, almost all the great land-
owners were expelled, and replaced by Catholics, while the
mass of the population underwent no modification in their
religious faith. The kingdom is actually enjoying the
greatest tranquillity.—lbid.
ALEXANDRIA, SEPT. 28.—The 9th and 12th Regiments
of Infantry are to be sent to Hedjaz, to prosecute with
vigour the next campaign against the Iman of Muscat, and
the \Vahabres, who are again assembled. It is evidently
the intention of the Paella to make himself master of the
whole coast of Arabia, which would necessarily give him
the command in the interior of the Peninsula, as far as it
is possible to have any influence in the desert. His chief
object is Muscat, the possession of which would secure to
him the trade of the Persian Gulf and the East Coast of
Africa. The Iman of Muscat seems to be uneasy at this
plan ; and in order to consolidate his friendship with the
English Government, has presented to the King of England
a fine ship of 74 guns, built at Bombay, called the Liver-
pool. The great difficulty that the Paella has in this en-
terprise is the want of a naval force in the Red Sea, for
the fleet of the Iman is pretty considerable, and the Paella
must have at least three or four frigates to undertake any-
thing against him. On the land side, Muscat is protected
by a chain of mountains.
Syria is becoming visibly impoverished under the
Egyptian Administration. The Custom-house at Berrout
gave fig the rear 1834 an importation to the value of five

hundred thousand ,pounds, of which two hundred and eighty
thousand pounds was paid in goods, and the remainder in
cash. This unfavourable balance is to be attributed to the
increasing consumption of English cotton manufacture,
which, as the country has become poor, have every where
supplanted the silks manufactured in the country itself, and
are universally worn. The importation in this year amounted
to one hundred and eighty thousand pounds. Their low
price has almost entirely ruined the cotton manufactures- in
the mountains and at Aleppo, and though the Pacha of Egypt
clothes his troops in Syria with Egyptian manufactures, and
gives them every possible advantage in the Syrian markets,
they cannot compete, for general consumption, with the
English. The best prospect of the country is in the pro-
duce of silk, which, however; is generally checked by the
political troubles. The Egyptian cotton crop has been
very indifferent, not above 180,000 cwt.,, little more than
half the usual quantity. The English houses have offered
the Pacha a loan ; but he will prefer selling the next crop
in advance, if his armaments against Syria and Arabia should
render it necessary,

ST. PETERSBURGH, Nov. Majesty the Em-
peror arrived on the sth of November at Oul, where be at-
tended a funeral service, in memory of the late Empress
Maria Feodorowna, inspected the first division, and viewed
the charitable institutions.' On the following day he set
out for Tula, where he arrived on the 7th, and much snow
having fallen, proceeded in a sledge to Moscow, where he
arrived at eleven at night.
THE HAGUE, Nov. 24.—Java Journals to the 25th of
July last have been received, in which we find a circum-
stan'tial account of the war in which the Dutch forces on
the West coast of Sumatra are still engaged with the re-
volted Padries. It gives an account of the events till the
16th of June this year, and proves that the Dutch troops,
united with the native auxiliaries, had, especially of late,
fought with advantage, and had distinguished themselves by
bravery and perseverance in the most trying circumstances.
According to the accounts, our troops had just taken by
storm the very strong position of Padang Lawe, and on the
12th were preparing to cannonade the chief town of Bonjos,
after having on that day made themselves masters of all the
outposts. We had unfortunately lost on that occasion the
brave Captain Roth and Lieutenant Potters, and 'had also
a number wounded.

THE HAGUE, Nov. 27.—The Second Chamber of the
States-General had a public sitting to-day, in which several
reports were brought up by the Committee of Petitions.

ST. PETERSBURGH, Nov. 13.—His Majesty the Emperor
arrived the day before yesterday in perfect health at Czars-
koje Sele.

FRANKFORT, Nov. 26.—The Journal des Debra!: says that
the Journal de Frankfort vigorously defends the cause of
Russia. That journal ought not to have confined our vo-
cation to so special a task. We dedicate the vignur which
it ascribes to us (if it exist) to the cause of order and jus-
tice, not only in Russia, but everywhere. It is not sur-
prising that the principal subject of our defence should
happen to be the Government that is the most attacked.
but should similar attacks be directed against other esta-
blished Powers our pen will not be i4le.

The difference between our journal and those which d--
fend the Governments of London and Paris is that the
journals of England and France had adopted the system of
supporting the Government of their own country and de-
preciating those of others—of extolling men ;Ind things in
in the west, and affecting a continual irritation against men
and things in the east and north.

Our system is different. We defend order wherever it
may be, and we have no need to exult the virtues of certain
Sovereigns, and incessantly to deny the merit and virtue of
others. Our opinions place in the same line the friends
of the laws at Paris, London, Berlin, and Vienna ; and
we equally despise conspiracies of all times and of all
countries. We are as indignant at a plot against Louis
Phillippe as we should be at a plot against any other
Sovereign ; and we have not at one time terms of indignation
against Fieschi and terms of encouragement for those
who, in other countries, should form plots against any Mo-
narch. Those who wish for order in one country and not
in another—those who desire liberty in one country and not
in another—appear to be false friends both to order and
liberty.—Journal de Frankfort, Nov. 26.
