with dispatched to the Journal de Paris and to the
Moniteur :
" Government has received tidings from Martinique,
dated the 29th of December.. Some disorders were feared
as about to take place amongst the slaves, seditious writings
having been distributed in the colonies. These fears have
assumed a serious character, since the Colonial Council has
addressed a memoir on the subject to the Governor. This
memoir demands a reinforcement of horse gendarmerie, and
also, ere this reinforcement can arrive, entreats that the
troops of marine artillery may be retained on the island,
to preserve its tranquillity. The Governor did not hesitate
to comply with this latter demand ; so that there are hopes
that public tranquillity will not be interrupted in the island."
Prince Talleyrand has left Paris, for his seat at
RocheCotte.
The Courrier Francais has the followinc, :—" Count Pozzo
di Borgo will set out this evening for London. It appears
certain that his absence will be but temporary. His instruc-
tions are said to be limited, so that general topics can only
be the subject of mere conversation. The best informed
persons think that the Count's mission, even should the
Tory Ministry maintain itself in place, will not exceed three
months ; and that he will then either resume his post at
Paris or retire into private life. These persons also con-
ceive that this extraordinary mission has less relation to the
vague interests of certain political principles than to deter-
mine objects, and that Russia wishes to take advantage of
the influence Count Pozzo di Borgo has with the Duke
of Wellington to prevent too close an accordance between
Austria and the Tory party in the affairs of the East,
whereby the system and interests of Russia would be pre-
judiced."
The Tribune was yesterday stopped at the Post-office,
and seized at the office of the Journal.
The Augsburgli Gazette of the 31st ult. has the following
from Rome of the 22d :—" Accounts from Naples state
that the Pope's Nuncio, Monsignor Feretti, has been re-
ceived in audience by the King with every mark of distinc-
tion. The reverend diplomatist preserved his hat upon his
head, in conformity with an ancient custom, which permits
the representative of the Pope to be covered in the King's
presence, while the Neapolitan Nobles are admitted on
bended knees to kiss the hand of Majesty. This, at a mo-
ment when the King refuses to acknowledge the Pope as
his feudal lord, maybe considered a disposition on his part
to preserve the friendship of the Church, and to accommo-
date matters with the Holy See. The Hereditary Prince
of Saxe Weimar is expected here in a few days, with a nu-
merous suite, under the name of Boron Von Alstadt. By
a Papal decree, Gio. Battista de Rossi, who died in 1764,
has been received among the Saints. The Congregation of
Sacred Rights has been occupied since 1823 in investiga-
ting the title of the pious man to this high distinction of
the Church, and has found him worthy. Yesterday a Rabbi
of Morocco, David Attias, and a Mahomedan of Alexan-
dria, were received into the bosom of the Catholic Church,
by baptism, with great pomp." The Gazette quotes the
funds at Vienna on the 26th, Metallics 5 per Cents, 100
11-16 ; 4 per Cents ditto, 938 ; Bank Actions, 1299.
The Augsburg Gazette of the Ist instant has the follow-
ing from Smyrna of the 17th December :—" The English
squadron, which for many months past has been at anchor
in our roads, has, for the most part, sailed for Malta. A
pack et brought to the Admiral orders to leave the station.
The district of Orfa is evacuated by the Egyptians, and is
again occupied by the Turkish authorities. Commercial
letters from Bagdad state that Persia is in a state of insur-
rection, and Mirza Mohammed Khan, son of Abbas Mirza,
had applied for the assistance of Russia against four or five
of his brothers, who dispute his right of succession to the
throne. According to some versions, a corps of the Rus-
sian army in Grusia (Georgia) has marched to the frontier
of Persia ; according to others, troops have already passed
the frontier." The same Journal has the following from
Vienna of the 27th ult. :—" Considerable reductions are
being effected in the Austrian army. Eight frontier regi-
ments, each of which consists of about 3,000 men, have
been disbanded. A corresponding diminution has been
made in the Commissariat and artillery departments. These
are pleasing indications of the continuance of peace, and
may lead us to anticipate the long wished for universal dis•
arming. Count Ficquelmont, our Ambassador at the Court
of St. Petersburg, has obtained leave of absence, on ac-
count of the precarious state of his health, and his place
will be provisionally occupied by Count Colleredo Wallsee,
our present Ambassador at Dresden. Our funds are quoted
—Metallics, Five per Cents., 100: ; Four per Cents. ditto;
934 ; 8.A., 1294."
The Prussian State Gazette quotes the Funds at Berlin
on the 29th ult., Four per Cents, cash, 1064 ; Paper
100 a.

A Toulon letter of the 30th ult., says—" The Favourite
sloop of war, Captain Hamelin, which left Toulon in Ja-
nuary, 1833, for the South American station, arrived in port
this morning from Guyaquil in fifty days, bringing about
one million of francs in specie for French commercial
houses. She had been attacked by the typhus fever, which
carried off Lieutenant Menard, M. Jordany, her second
surgeon, M. Sicard, a midshipman, and forty-nine others
of her crew, so that she was obliged to fill up her comple-
ment from the Victorieuse of the line, which will very
shortly return also."

The Arlon Journal says :—" The reports as to the re-
duction of the Prussian army are confirmed, and we can
guarantee the correctness of the following facts :—At
Luxemburg each infantry company has been reduced 70
men ; out of 200 laneers 14 only remain ; so that the gar-
rison is diminished from between 6,000 and 7,000 men to
4,000. The Prussians themselves have abandoned all
thoughts of an invasion of Luxemburg."
BAYONNE, JAN. 31.—Zumalacarreguy marched on the
27th towards the Rioja de Alava, with eight battalions of
Navarre, four of Alava, and his - cavalry. lam assured
that on the same day, 2.5 soldiers and earabineers, and two
officers of the Urban Militia of Logrono, deserted from that
town, and joined the insurgents at Arminon. A party of
12 horsemen are said to have followed their example.
The 6th, 7th, and 9th battalions, commanded pro tern-
pore by Colonel Don Fermin Ripalda, arrived on the 30th
at Berueta and Almandoz, in the valley of Bastan. The
blockade of Elisondo is more rigorously enforced since the
accession of those troops. An incessant fusillade is kept
up by the besiegers against the fort, which the besieged re-
turn by grape-shot and cannon-ball.
The Carlist Junta of Navarre has ordered a number of
shirts to be supplied by the inhabitants of the neighbour-
ing valleys, and forwarded to that town before the Bth of
February.

The reserve of General Mina, and the column of Briga-
dier Oraa were, on the 30th, at Villalba and Huarte, within
a league of Pampeluna.
In a Bando, published in all parts of Navarre on the 25th
inst., Gen. Mina invites all the heads of families, who should
be absent from the kingdom, whether in France or else-
where, to return to their respective homes in the course of
eight days, threatening them, in case they disobeyed that
order, with the confiscation of their property.
Sagastibelsa, the commander of the sth battalion, sent
orders to the Alcalde of Urdach to supply him immediately
with 2,000 rations of bread, wine, and meat. The latter,
knowing that his life was at stake, and that the inhabitants
had no flour, proceeded to the convent of the Monstrenses
monks, and compelled them to furnish those provisions.
BAYONNE, FEB. I.—A steam-boat, coming from Eng-
land, with 19 Spanish officers on board, 4,000 stand of
arms, and a quantity of ammunition, was captured yesterday
on the coast, near St. Sebastian, by some gun boats and a
brigantine of the Queen.

The three Carlist battalions, under Guibelalde, left Oyar-
zun last evening, for Azpeitia and Azcoytia, after hearing
of the capture of the steamer, which they were expecting
for some days.

Don Carlos, his suite, and two battalions also left Oyar-
zun about the same time, and proceeded to Goyzueta, in
Navarre.

On the 29th the column of reserve of General Mina,
and the brigade of Oraa, marched to Irirzun, within three
leagues of Pampeluna ; from thenee they were to repair to
the Borunda.

A movement occurred on the 25th at Puente la Reyna.
Some soldiers and Urbanos, headed by two parish priests,
proclaimed the Constitution of 1820, and paraded the
streets from four o'clock in the afternbon, crying " Liberty
for ever !" " Death to the Carlists ! " and breaking the win-
dows of the inhabitants suspected of attachment to Don
Carlos.

Our letters from Madrid, of the 24th ult., state that the
Queen had made a great number of promotions in the
higher ranks of the army ; and that all the troops distri-
buted over Spain would be immediately marched towards
the North. Fifty thousand Urbana were also to be called
into active service. It was reported in the Spanish capi-
tal, on that day, that the Constitution of 1820 had been
proclaimed in Cadiz. If the report be true, the movement
must have been combined with that of the 18th in Madrid.
The Queen having accepted an invitation to dine with the
Company of Chasseurs of the Ist battalion of the Urban
Militia, the banquet took place on the 24th, on the bank of
the canal.
