PARIS, MONDAY.
The Akhbar of Algiers publishes the following
letter addressed by the new Minister of Algeria and.
the Colonies to the prefects amid the generals com-
manding divisions in Algeria :--
Paris, March 26.

" The Emperor, in calling -Die to the honour of
directing the Ministry of Alge]r is and the Colonies,
has given me the mission of c ontinuing the work
so auspiciously commenced by his Imperial High-
ness Prince Napoleon. To that 'difficult but honour-
able task we must devote our exclusive attention ;
and it is in order to accomplish. it that I now claim
your co-operation, and appeal 'to all men of sound
purpose. Algeria, conquered: by our glorious
army, pacified by its intelligen f, perseverance, now
offers to colonisation and civilisation an opening
which is too vast and attract; ive to permit that
France should do otherwise than introduce there
her activity, and transform i t into one of the
elements of her power. The 3 :mperor was of opi-
nion that the moment had agrrived to extend to
Algeria a portion of the benefits of our home organi-
sation, and that the most pow a rful encouragement
that could be offered to Frc nehmen desirous of
transporting there their fortunei and industry would
be to show them that they and t heir families would,
to a certain degree, find there an entire image of
their native country. Such vc las the generous and
fruitful idea which dictated th:e decree of the 24th
June last. That idea will anii late us all, for lam
aware bf the desire of the civil .and military autho-
rities to co-operate with devot cdness in the grand
work in wliich France is engl4 ed in Algeria. For
my part, I shall labour without cessation, and shall
be happy to submit to the En a peror the progress
that may be made, and the m t.mes of the men to
whom it will be due.

THE KM T.

Constantinople journals an, I letters to the 30th
ult. have reached us. The c. reditors of the Civil
List have given in their answ ler to the proposals

which Riza Pacha had submitted to them with
reference to a settlement of their claims. These
proposals embraced three categories of payment—
namely, one by which the claims in question should
be cut down at Witte to v 2,t' tlowittul
amount, of which 20 per cent. should now be paid
in cash and the remaining 50 per cent, in a year ; a
second, by which the sums due should submit to
no present reduction, but be paid in five yearly in-
stalments without interest, and a third, that they
be paid in ten yearly instalments, with 6 per
cent. interest till finally liquidated. The dele-
gates ~.who attended for the various parties inte-
rested demanded permission for each to make
his own choice of the three methods proposed;
this was granted, and the interview ended by
a large majority consenting to accept one or
other of the forms of the Pacha's offer. A minority
declined to avail themselves of any of the three,
but insisted on prompt and full satisfaction of their
claims. On the occasion of the approaching de-
parture of Mr. Cumberbatch, her Majesty's Consul-
General, who, it is believed, will not return to his
post, but receive an appointment elsewhere, the
English and lonian merchants of the place deter-
mined on presenting him with an address, expres-
sive of their high personal respect and esteem. The
address terminates with the request that on his
his arrival in London, Mr. Cumberbatch will sit
for his portrait, to be placed in the new Consulate.
A letter :from Tokat,lin Asia Minor, contains the
following :
" The American Missionary Establishment here
has met with a severe loss, the entire mission
buildings having been consumed by fire. These
buildings were originally the property of a Turk,
but were many years ago purchased by a Swiss
merchant, who sold them to the American Mission.
They were occupied at the time of the accident by
three missionaries, the Rev. Messrs. Van Lennep,
Winchester, and Pettibone, the two former with
their families; and a portion of the buildings was
also used for a theological school, in which native
Protestant young men were being educated for the
holy office of the ministry. The fire originated in the
basement storey of the main building, though by
what means It is not known. There are strong sus-
picions that it was the work of an incendiary. Most,
if not all, of the timbers in the lower part of the build-
ing were of pitch pine, so that the flames spread with
very great rapidity. Mr. Van Lennep, being at the
time suffering from fever, was only able to escape,
with his family, without saving an article of his
things. His furniture, clothing, and library are all
lost, as we infer from the information we have
received, and some valuable manuscripts and
drawings also, which can never be replaced. It is
understood that most of the things belonging to
Messrs. Winchester and Pettibone were saved."

A Smyrna letter of the 25th says
" A few weeks ago, an Alsatian colporteur'
landed in Smyrna with his wife and child, and
took up his lodging in the quarter inhabited by the
Maltese. Early one morning, the body of this
man was found in a blind alley of the Jewish
quarter, in a sitting posture, the head nearly
severed from the body, and the arms and hands
gashed in several places. A Greek butcher, who
was seen running from the spot by some of the
Jewish women dwelling in the neighbourhood,
has been denounced as the murderer by them, and
he on his part charges them with the crime. On
the person of the Greek was found a large knife,
and certain blood stains, for which he accounts in
a professional point of view ; he does not, how-
ever, account in as satisfactory a manner for the
fact of his running away from the spot upon which
the murder, if murder it be, was committed. On
the other hand, the old story of the Jews employ-
ing human blood in their Easter ceremonies is
renewed by all our gobe-mouches,' who do not
understand that the myth is trumped up every
year in the East for the purpose of extracting a
round sum from the unfortunate Israelites. My
own opinion of the whole affair is, that there has
been no murder committed either by Jew or Greek,
but that the Alsatian in a fit of despondency, to
which he had by the statement of his wife given
way for several preceding days, committed suicide.
The antecedents of the Greek are most decidedly
in his favour ; nothing in his previous conduct is
known that lead one to infer him capable of such
an atrocious deed, and it would be ridiculous to
suppose that some half dozen Jewish women, never
at the best very temperate characters, should at-
tack a lusty and'strong man in open day for such
a preposterous purpose as the one assigned."

A Berlin letter, in the German Journal of Frank-
fort, says :—" The Sardinian Cabinet has defini-
tively declined to accede to the demand of Austria
relative to disarming, although England and
Prussia declared themselves ready to guarantee
Sardinia, in case she should disarm, against any
attack on the part of Austria. No resolution has
yet been come to on the proposition made to Austria
and Sardinia to withdraw their troops from the
frontiers. To arrive at an arrangement, it was
lately proposed to evacuate the frontier districts for
a less distance than the ten leagues at first pro-
posed ; `but it is, not kb own whether this proposi-
tion has been accepted. Generally speaking,
serious doubts are entertained a the success of the
negotiations on the matter."

boats ; took and destroyed 17 vessels and liberated
3,000 slaves, besides performing numerous other
important services with reference to the gum trade
