FRENCH PAPERS.

(From the Etoik, dated Tuesday.)
CONSTANTINOPLE, SEPT. 10.--Since the dreadful fire
which consumed a part of this capital, a kind of tranquillity
prevails, but the distress of the Turks and Armenians, who
wander about without an asylum, is beyond description.—
It is now out of all doubt, that the fire was the act of the
Janissaries and their party. It may be remembered that
at the time of their suppression they covered the walls of
Constantinople with placards, in which they threatened
the Sultan that they would return, even from the bottom
of the sea, to avenge their wrongs. For some time past,
the Divan, and even the Sultan himself, appear more un-
easy than ever. " This may be inferred from the new mea-
sures which have just been adopted. In order not to re-
duce the inferior classes of the population to despair, the
Government is obliged to keep provisions at a lower price
than they were twenty years ago. The prospect of the
future is nevertheless gloomy and threatening. Since the
delivery of the Russian ultimatum, Mr. Secretary Canning,
the English Ambassador, has also presented to the Divan
a note, in which he enforces the claims of British subjects
who suffered in their property at the beginning of the
troubles, and particularly at Scio. It is supposed that
these demands will tend to render the Porte still more dis-

posed,to submit to the conditions imposed by Russia.—
However, nothing has yet transpired respecting the reso•
'talons of the Divan.—Gazette Universelle.

BUCHAREST, SEPT. 20.—We have received by the
Austrian post letters from Constantinople to the 11th of
this month. We find nothing new in them. We do not think
that on the 14th the Divan had yet come to any decision,
for we should be already informed of it, since the Tartars
are only five days on the journey from Constantinople to
this city.—Gazette Universelle.
VIENNA, SEPT. 30.—Yesterday, the 29th, being the
Saint's day of the Infant Don Miguel, the 'Emperor sent
his Adjutant-General, Baron Kutschera and the Crown
Prince, the Grand Marshal of his Household, Count Belle-
grade, to pay him their compliments. The Archduke
Francis, Charles, and the other Archdukes, the sons and
brothers of the Emperor, visited the young Prince in per-
son on this occasion.

PARIS, OCT. 9.—Most of the news from Spain and Por-
tugal given by the Journal des Debois to-day, is either
false or ridiculous. In the first class is the news of the
refusal of the King to receive M. de Souza as an Ambas-
sador at Madrid; and in the other, the official recognition
by the Courts of Russia and France, of the Emperor Don
Pedro, as King of Portugal. As for what the same jour-
nal says of the private dispositions of the Sultan, with re-
spect to the demands made at Akermann, and of the de-
fection of the greater part of the garrison of Zamora, stated
to have deserted to Portugal, these are some of the private
news of that journal which it alone hai received up to this
day. This is equivalent to saying that we are more than
permitted to doubt theii truth.
Is the Drapeau Blanc in earnest in announcing the ar-
rival of the Infant Don Miguel, at Madrid, whither the
Queen of Portugal would go to receive him ?
ST. PETERSBURGH, SEPT. 20.—The Emperor has
deigned to address to the Directing Senate a Ukase, of
which the following is a translation :
" Having deemed it convenient to create a Ministry for
the administration of the affairs of all the dependencies of
the Court conjointly with those of the departments of the
appanage• of the Cabinet, with the title of Ministry of
the Imperial Court,' under the following regulations, we
appoint as Minister of our Court the Aid-de-Camp Gene-
ral Prince Volkonsky, General of Infantry.
(Signed) " NICHOLAS."

" Moscow, Sept. 3, 11326:" -
Here follow the Regulations of the 'Ministry of the Im
perial Court :

(From the Journal dea Debats.)
LitnoN, SEPT. 23.—(Private Correspondence.)—The
sloop of war of the Portuguese Navy, the Isabella, has
sailed for. Rio Janeiro with despatches from the Regency,
announcing to the King Don Pedro, that his Majesty has
been officially reconised as King of Portugaby the Court;
of France and of Russia. This corvette, after being kept
in a state of readiness for some time, sailed on the very
same day on which a Russian Cabinet Courier arrived with
despatches, which brought the official recognition of the
King by the Emperor of Russia.
Since the departure of the Isabella, the Cabinet Coun-
cils and Meetings of Ministers are very frequent. The Prin-
cess Regent returned express from Cintra to preside at
one of them.

The nomination of the parish elections are concluded.
They have taken place in the greatest tranquillity, notwith-
standing the very large number of electors of all classes
and of all sorts of opinions that were collected together.
The electors nominated consisted entirely of men devoted
to the new institutions which the King Don Pedro has
given us.
The opening of the Chambers is to take place on the
18th of October; however, Government has 'not yet
published any thing in this respect; but this much is
certain, that the meeting takes place on the day I have
mentioned.

The tribunals are very slow in examining the proceed-
ings which have been instituted against the authors of
various disturbances which have taken place since the es-
tablishment of the Constitution, but to remedy this incon-
venience Government has ordered the Judges .'charged
with the proceedings in cases of rebellion,to instiinte them
within the time prescribed by the law, which, in fact, is
very short.
