FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

FRENCH PAPERS.
(From the Journal des Debuts of Thursday.)

PARIS, Auu. 7.—The friends of the King and of the
Constitutional Monarchy will speedily see at the head of
our foreign policy that liberal gentleman who at length
restored to our diplomacy that frankness and independence
which are consistent with the national character.

(From the Gazette de France of Friday.)
Palm, Auc. B.—We have to ask pardon of our readers
for having forgotten, in our Journal which was seized yes-
terday, to remind the Royalists of another subject of com-
plaint against the Ministry, that of their having only men-
tioned that a pension had been demanded by a regicide,
with a view of appearing as mediators between that
regicide and the Chambers. It is true that the speech of
M. Hyde de Neuville in favour of this man, who would
hardly postpone till the next day the execution of his King,
was a model of candour ; but this will not excuse a proceed-
ing unworthy of a man honoured with the confidence of
his Sovereign. The Ministry speaks of humanity in favour
of the executioners of Louis XVI., and asks pensions for
them. " When we hear," said M. de Chateaubriand in
the Conservatenr, " virtue praised on the corpse of Louis
XVI., we shrink with horror." And this Ministry has
found favour with the Noble Viscount. Nine years ago he
wrote, that M. Benjamin Constant was the only man of
intellect belonging to the Liberal party. It is now plain
that M. Benjamin Constant has more intellect than him who
deigned to allow him a little ; for the Genevese Deputy,
with his party, has made himself master of the Ministers,
while M. Chateaubriand is only their flatterer. A hundred
thousand crowns for an Ambassador at Rome, who remains
at Paris, deserves some compliments.
The liberty of the press would soon have effected the
destruction of the monarchy if freedom of attack is allowed,
and its defenders are to be chained. That our picture of
the proceedings of the Session may have roused the Mi-
nisters we can understand, but we defy their partizans to
mention a single act or project of law during the Session,
which is not a sacrifice of the prerogatives of the Crown,
an attack on the rights and on the interests of Royalty,
and which is not a concession to the demands of the Revo-
lution. We have exposed the system, and we are sur-
prised that the Ministers, instead of being induced to
change their system, by one striking display, should have
attacked the Journal in which it was made.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Arm. 10.—Since the Porte has been
informed of the taking of Brailow, preparations for war
are prosecuted with increased activity; the general arm-
ing of the inhabitants of the capital continues, and those
persona who are fit for service are enrolled and exercised;
the horses are put under requisition, and the Grand Vizier
is preparing every thing for his departure, which, how-
ever, will not take place if the positions of the Balkan, or
the entrenched camp at Choumla, which is the key of them,
should be forced or turned.
The command of the fleet at the entrance of the Bos-
phorus is confided, in the absence of the Captain Paella, to
the Captain Bey Mustapha, who distinguished himself by
his bravery at the battle of Navarin. The batteries and
the forts of the Bosphorus are in good condition, and well
provided both with troops and artillery, so as to be able, if
attacked, to snake a vigorous resistance. Though some
Russian men of war are proceeding now and then in the
neighbourhood of the Bosphorus, there has not been hi-
therto any landing or serious attack. Tranquillity still
prevails iu the capital, and the Government directs its at-
tention in particular to the state of the Provinces, especi-
ally Coron ; and as in several provinces of the empire the
harvest has not been abundant, or has been ravaged by lo-
custs, the Porte has re-opened the navigation of the Black
Sea, on condition that the foreign ships shall sell to it at
an equitable price a part of their cargoes of corn.—Aus-
trian Observer.

BITCHARFST, JUTS 15.—Plusseim Pacha endeavours to
maintain the strictest discipline in the Turkish army. The
execution of the two Pacha.s who surrendered the for-
tresses of Issaktchi and Tonlcha, has rendered him com-
pletely odious to the troops, and all the Turkish Com-
manders who are so unfortunate as not to he able to defend
the forts, prefer being prisoners with the Russians to re-
turning with their countrymen. The Paella of Adrianople
is gone to defend Varna, not choosing to he under the
command of Husseim Pacha. Several other Turkish
commanders have expressed the same desire to the Porte.
Husseim has been ill from vexation, and offered to resign;
but the Porte ordered him to remain at his post. He
asked for an interpreter acquainted with the Russian lan-
guage, but was told he had no need of translations to beat
the enemy.
