FRENCH PAPERS.
(From the Gazette de France, dated July 28.)

BUCHAREST, JULY 6.—The head-quarters of the
Emperor were still at Karassou on the 3d. How-
ever, at that time, a part of the troops and General
Rutliaer were on their march to Yarns, which is in
a bad condition, and cannot make any 'serious resist-
ance when a squadron of ships of War shall appear
before it. Several Pulks of Cossacks scour the
country between Sehountla and Silistria, and do
much injury to the Turks, whose communications
they intercept. _ •
It. is
,said that a Tartar, despatched by Hussein
Paeha,--who commandsin Scholunla, with despatches
for the Pacha of Widdin, has been stopped by some
Cossacks and brought to the head-quarters; and that
his despatches must be of great importance, because
Count Diebitsk, the Quarter-master General, had
been engaged several hours with the Emperor, and
that afterwards malty' couriers had been sent to the
different corps of the army. It was supposed that
Hussein Pacha had sent to the Pacha of Widdin in-
structions for his conduct, and communications re-
specting Servia; for the division of Infantry under
the command of General Kortchakoff, .which was
appointed to observe in Little Wallachia the Turkish
camp at Calafat, have received considerable reinforce-
ments, and was to advance immediately into Servia,
where the Turks summoned the troops from Bosnia
to join then], and intended to collect a great force
upon the Morava.

The Serviatis are said to have protested against
the entrance of the troops from Bosnia, and threaten
to revolt in a mass, if the treaties were to be vio-
lated. It seems, however, that the TurksVay.little
attention to the remonstrances of the Servians, and
that the latter will be obliged to bavO recourse to
arms for the defence of their, rights. It Is
,probable
that the Russians have orders to march to the assist,
ance of the Servians.--Augsburgh Gazette.:
PARIS, JULY 27.—The expedition to the 'Mores
is decided in principle; but part of the details which
have been given are premature. The following are
the particulars that we have collected, and which
we believe may be depended upon as correct:— The
expedition will be commanded, as has been stated,
by Lieut.:-Gen. Maison; but there will be no other
General Officer of the same rank. Major-General
Higonnet and Tiburce Sebastiani, will be employed.
—The names of the other Major-Generals are not
known. The expedition is composed of eighteen
battalions of infantry ; of the regiment of chasseurs
on horseback, commanded by Col. Sandons, which
was at Barcelona; and of a detachment of artillery.
—lt is believed that part of the French garrison at
Cadiz will join the expedition. The military and
civil officers have orders to be at Toulon on the .sth
August. bl. Volland, the Intendant,'-who is char-
ged with the chief direction of the administration
of the corps of the army comprising- the expedition,
is still at Paris.

. PARIS, JULY 27.—EXPF.DITION TO THE MOREA.
—The expedition to the Morea must have 'excited
the attention of the public, and given rise to many
conjectures. It is plain that this expedition is
founded on the Treaty of July 6th, for every thing
now doing in Europe is founded on the Treaty. The
march of the Russians to Constantinople, our pro-
ceedings as to the Morea, and the inactivity of Eng-
land, are all founded on that Treaty. All that we
desire to know is who understands it best, and who
will extract from it most advantage? Will it be the
Russians marching on Constantinople—the French,
in sailing to the Morea—or the English in waiting
the course of events? The Russians, it is clear,
place themselves in a favourable situation for exe-
cuting this Treaty. If the European Powers
were to unite, and throw themselves in the
rear of the Russians after they had passed
the Balkan, they might experience a. Mos.
cow campaign. But for this, Metternich and
Wellington must agree. Prussia must be passive,
and France must decide, for without her nothing can
now be done. The Russians, therefore, by carrying
the Treaty into execution ill their own manner, do
not run a great risk. There is much to be said pro
and con against the French proceeding to the
Morea, as there has been on all' great events, and
therefore it would he hazardous to pronounce before-
hand what will be the results. If, however, the
demon of temptation should seize the Powers—if
the young descendant of Catherine, on arriving at
the Bosphorus, should be troubled by that demon,
in chewing him the fine places, with the words that
formerly troubled the mind of a God--will France
then have acted prudently in repairing to the
Morea ? To us it appears she would.. When
Poland was partitioned, all the Powers were
afraid of each other, and they obtained con-
fidence at the expence of the weakest. They di-
vided. the object in dispute. It would now be
better, perhaps, for the Powers, instead of fight-
ing against Russia, to take Bosnia, Servia, Albania,
the Morea, and the islands of the Archipelago, leav-
ing Russia, Moldavia, Wallachia, Bulgaria, Thrace,
and Constantinople ; and if the treaty of July should
be executed in this manner, it will not be bad for
France to be in the Morea. She will, at least, se-
cure to herself a part of the Turkish Empire. It
would be better, no doubt, for us to be in Egypt
than in Greece. We might, as Leibnitz and Na-
poleon thought, do something very advantageous
there. It would be difficult, however, to do this in
conformity with the treaty of the 6th of July; and
till some Power sets us a bad example, it would be
dangerous for us to set one. Russia, it is true, is
marching on Constantinople ' • but it is not the time
for us to proceed straight to Egypt, as we did whop
we ruled over the Continent, and when a hero led
40,000 troops, and embarked op board a fleet of 400
sail. We must therefore go to the Morea, in order
to observe times and circumstances, and remain faith-
fill to the treaty of July 6,

Sunday evening the inhabitants in the neigh-
bourhood of St. Martin's Church were thrown into great
confusion, in consequence of a house in Moore-lane having
fallen down, At first it was reported that two young
men were buried in the ruins, but we are happy to state
that all the inmates escaped without any great injury. It
is said that the house was built on the spot where GEORGE
BAnNwEt.t. ha 4 beep hanged.

AQUATIC EXCURSloN.—Yesterday that hos=
pitahle Company, the Merchant Tailors, entertained a mot
numerous company of ladies and gentlemen with an
witottip ,*ettraipn tq Richmond, The party, although not
very numerous, but select, started from Blackfriars Bridge
at half-past eleven, in several barges, with colours dis-
playing to whom they belonged, as well as all those of the
rainbow. The band of tke Grenadier Guards acorn.-
Mied the party, who came from Windsor for the pur-
ppse. The company returned at dusk, and notwithstand-
ing the unpropitiousness of the weather, with gladdened
hearts and high spirits, elicited through the gratifying treat
above mentioned.

THE HURRICANE.—The violent effects. a
the tempest; alluded to in our het, we now find to con-
siderahiy exceed the statement there made, and the devas-
tation raged through a more extensive circuit than we at
first imagined. It appears to have commenced near Falk-
ingham, where it violently twisted the branches from se-
veral trees, and beat down the underwood. In the 1111,1"'
parish it turnpd a heavy waggon over three times. At
ilr€l,kitlghant and Sv,,atim, great numbers of 'trees were
blown IQ the ground, and, in fact, the line of country
through which it passed, bears dreadful proof of its de-
structive power, presenting literally a scene of ruin. In
the woods near Ilotncastle, we have the best authority for
declaring that the account given last week, fell infinitely
bhort of the truth. Were we indeed to insert all the facts
of the case, some of our distant readers might be led to
suppose we were attempting to impose on their credulity,
but we are bound to state the actual and undeniable ncGur-
rfneas; vquelied as they are by men of respectability, and
attested as they C,.3 be by hundreds of witnesses—nay,
even by the scene itself.• The terrific whirlwind made a
complete road through Tumby and Fuisby woods, which
nearly adjoin, anti the roads extended four miles in length,
and from 50 to 100 to 150 yards wide. One of the
woodkeepers actually states that more than five thousand
trees, nearly all of them oak, have
been blown down,
many of them containing from 40 to 60 feet of timber.

LONDON.
WEDNESDAY EVENING, JULY 30, 1828.

The Russian squadron of four ships' of the
line and three frigates, under the command of
Rear-Admiral RlconD, passed Dover yester-
day morning from the eastward down channel.
The Admiral's ship unfortunately struck on the
Varne 'Sand, and laid there about two hours.
Had there been any wind the ship would have
received great injury ; but the sea was quite calm,
anti the tide flowing, so that the ship got off
about ten o'clock, and proceeded with the rest
of the squadron to the westward.

The French Papers last received contain no
intelligence of any interest from the Russian
armies, but we may be in hourly expectation of
hearing something very decisive from that
quarter. The Division under General RUDIGER
was on its march to Varna—an important sea.;
port to which a Russian squadron was despatched
in order to make a combined attack. This
harbour forms the key of the coast passage to
Constantinople, and its possession becomes,
therefore, of prime necessity to the Russians.
With respect to the Expedition to the Morea,
the French Papers indulge in sundry bitter specu-
lations ironically reflecting on the Treaty of
the 6th July, as being the fbundation, real or
affected, of all the great events now taking place in
Europe. Whatever may be the consequences result-
ing from this Expedition to France, we feel assured
that England will have good cause for regret.
The present policy of this country cannot be re-
conciled to any standard of expediency that we
are acquainted with, unless, indeed, it be that
of retaining office merely for its patronage. Our
Ministers are amused by the pacific assurances of
the Russian EMPEROR, at the same moment
that he is marching at the head of conquering
armies, whose numerical force exceeds half
a million of men. It will, no doubt, be very
consolatory to the people of this country to be
informed in a few morths that our Ministers
have been grossly deceived by the hollow
promises of NICHOLAS, and that therefore our
national honour demands that we should declare.
war in order to curb the overgrown prepon-
detance of Russia, by restoring the balance of
power in Europe. That this will be the case in
the long run we have no doubt, but that
Ministers will find people disposed to join
them may fairly be questioned. A prompt and
spirited interference at the present moment would
save much useless expence hereafter. When
Russia has obtained possession ofConstantinople,
she will laugh at our threats. The very fact of
possession will be urged as an additional reason
for her retention of the Capital of the East.
The Black Sea is at present next to useless to
Russia, while the Turks command the only
outlet there is to the Mediterranean ; and
Russia in her declaration of war, plainly as-
serts that she will take sufficient care not
only to have indemnity for the past but se-
curity for the future. How is this last to be ob-
tained ? certainly not by promises, or assurances,
which are only binding during the pleasure or in-
terest of tilt' party commanding the passage, butby
actual possession. Having once obtained this,
will Russia yield it up at the remonstrance of
England ? Certainly not. The Emperor
NICHOLAS will invite France to take any part
f the Morea, or even Egypt, if more desirable,
much in the same way that he is said to have in-
vited
Austria to take Servia and Bosnia. And
all these invitations he can afford to make
with the more grace because they cost him
nothing. On the contrary, their acceptance
will be of service to him as guaranteeing
the quiet possession of his own conquests. When
all these untoward circumstances take place, and
the chances are a hundred to one, England may
speak out, but she will be told that " the mis-
chief is done and cannot now be helped." So

much for the " untoward " simplicity of our
carte blanche Administration.

Private letters frorri-Paris state that,the loan
will take Place during the
,next month ; but it is
not known if it will be made in 3 per cents. or
44 percents. M. RoTasclltr,o's journey to
Paris is supposed to be connected with this
business.

Unusual bustle prevails at the office of the
French Minister of War, to get ready with all de-
spatch the Expedition to the Mot ea. All the clerks
are ordered to attend the office by seven o'clock in
the morning. Twelve thousand men are to sail in
the first expedition, and four thousand more are to
follow so soon as they can be equipped. It is
positively stated that this armament sails with
the consent of England. This' we doubt ; but
the French will go whether or not.

It appears that Don MIGuEL's plan of usur-
pation had been well matured before he took
any open steps of treason. He had an eye to
the Colonies as well as Portugal, and had dis-
patched a frigate, with a new Governor, for
Madeira, as well as the Azores. This, however,
was not allowed to land her new Governor at
Madeira, for she was received with double shotted
guns instead of a welcome salute. The old
Governor VALDEZ is a true Constitutionalist,
warmly devoted to Don PEDRO. The frigate,
on being refused admission to the harbour, pro-
ceeded for the Azores. But after her depar-
ture, it appears that the Bishop of MADEIRA,
.With the aid, of the Priests, denounced the Con.•
Stitutiomalists as heretics, and organised an insur-
rectionary force amounting to 600 men. Governor
VALDEZ, however, collected about 200 regular
troops with which he proceeded against the
rebels. An attack ensued in which the rebels
were compelled to fly with the (reported) loss of
nine killed,
.thirteen wounded, and eleven taken
prisoners. The Priests who led on this force
effected their escape. From all we have lately
seen of the conduct of Catholic Priests abroad,,
we think that the impression made upon Protes-
tants at home is any thing but favourable to
Catholic Emancipation. But it would be Un-
just to argue that because people misconduct
themselves • abroad, justice should be with-
held from those of the same religious persuasion
at home.
