PARIS, MAY 17.—A report is spread, and several
Journals repeat it this morning, that on the 3d of
this month, in the evening, Don Miguel issued a De-
cree for the convocation of the Three Estates of the
kingdom. The next day the young Viscount of
Santarem addressed, in the name of the Regent, an
official letter to the Foreign Ministers, to announce
to them the resolution of the Regent, and to acquaint
fheM..With the Decree of the preceding day. It is
thats .on the 6th the Members of the Diplomatic
Body, including the •liiiiister of Spain, had ad-
dressed it Note to the Infant Don Migtiel, to inform
hirn that their functions had ceased.
A letter from Toulon, received at Marseilles on
the Sth May, announces, as certain, the news .of
peace between France and the Regency of Algiers.
The Augsburgh Gazette has the following letter
=Torn Berlin :
" It is said that our Court has addressed to the
great Powers a Declaration, in which it defends the
military measures adopted by Russia against the
Porte, and expresses its disapprobation of the con-
duct latterly pursued by Turkey."
The Augsburgh Gazette adds, that the letters
from Vienna, which speak of this Declaration, add,
that Prussia also declares that it would net see•with
indifference Russia disturbed in the exercise of its
rights.
It was reported at Madrid, that the Count
D'Ot:elia would be appointed Minister of Foreign
Affairs, on his return from London.
The Illaniteur of Saturday, the 17th, ills seven
columns with the continuation of the debates on the
loan of four millions of rentes. General Andreossi
made a long*peeelt, in which he entered into
.:important political reflections on the relations of the
European Powers with Turkey; he painted the
3'nbition of Russia, which, since the time of Peter I
has had but two objects—Poland and Constan-
tinople ; it has Poland; it must desire Constantinople.
All the wars with the .Turks have been undertaken
with this view, and every war has advanced it a
step. Now, there was only one step to take.—
After that, India must enter into the views of Rus-
eia ; for those must be very confident who would
Fancy that the meclerate thirst of glory and ambi-
tion would expire on the rock of St. Helena. The
General disapproves of the Treaty of the 6th July,
se ineffectual towards the attainment of the object.
The Minister of War and Foreign Affairs also spoke,
but the debate was adjourned till Monday.

(From the Quotidienne, May 17.)
Rom, MAY M.—Letters from Jassy, of April
:73, say that an Envoy from the Ottoman Porte had
arrived in that, city with despatches for the Russian
Vice-Consul. The latter was requested to forward
despatches to the Russian head-quarters, which he
did. This circumstance had a little revived the
hope of peace at Jassy.

T. PETER:BITR,GII, MAY 5•

" The glorious and rid:vantageous peace with
Persia has not yet set bound's to the brilliant deeds
of the Russian armies. We termi.::.ate a just war;
btiy on another side an equally ardnos:l3 struggle
awaits us for the defence of our honour and Pf the
rights purchased with Russian blood. The hostile
proceedings of the 'I iirkish Government had already
exhausted the generous forbearance of the Emperor
Alexander of glorious memory; that. Government
hnr. now filled up. the" measure. Scarcely had it
affirmed the peace by the most solemn oaths, when
it openly threw off the mask of friendship which it
had assumed.
" We 'march in order to put an end to the troubles.
and Massacres in the countries bordering on our em-
pire, ,and to establish the violated peace on solid
foundations. Soldiers! in combating civilized
nations used to the art of war, you have gain-
ed imperi4table glory, not only by the valour
-which insured you the victory, but also by your
magnanimity. Blind obedience to his superior,
.F.,rict discipline, and mercy to the vanquished, have
.11,,vay 3 distinguidted the Russian soldiers. You have
7een the peaceable inhabitants receive you with joy-
on your ruzival, and those whom you have conquered
salute you with the name of deliverers. You main-
tain this glorious character, while you hold' out the
hand of friendship to your fellow-citizens. Subdue
those who will not submit, 7:-;ut spare the weak and
the unarmed. Spare the property, the houses, and
even the temples of our enemic., though they are of
a different religion.
" Thus the holy religion of cur Redeemer corn-
mans;. lie who, by mildness and humanity, shah
have conciliMed the bitterest 'enemies—he who shall
have defended the widows and the orphan, shall
he as dear to my lisart as the bravest in the field,
Rureiun soldiers ! you will not deceive my expecta-
,ion. We have God for ug, who crowns justice and
Intrepidity with victory.

IMPERIAL MANIFESTO.

and Autocrat of all the Russias, &c.
" The preservation of the peace which Russia has
enjoyed was always the chief object of our incessant
care, and, thanks to the Almighty, our efforts have
hitherto not been in vain. By the sudden invasion
,e:f the Persians, tranquillity was first disturbed on
our frontier beyond Mount Caucasus ; but repelling
force by force, we joyfully embraced the first op-
portunity to put an end to the war. A glorious and
peace confirms in those countries the se-
curity of our empire. But, on the other side, the
Ottoman Porte threatens Russia with war, and
,ven a war of extermination, which it has long had
in contemplation, and which it seeks to make gene-
by in oni n g all its subjects to rise in a body

other side of the barriers, and condescended to ad-
dress some words of encouragement, which were
answered by all these brave men with acclamations
of attachment to his Majesty's person. Their Ma-
jesties the Empresses also condescended to take
notice of each regiment.. The troops, with his Im-
perial Highness the Grand Duke Michael at their
head, and the Hereditary Grand Duke at the flank
of the regiment of which he is the chief, accompanied
by their whole suite, filed off rapidly before the
Emperor and Empresses, and proceeded on the way
to their destination with the exalted feelings inse-
parable from the sacredness of the cause which they
are called on to defend.

arabia has made known, that no embargo will he
laid on merchant ships in the ports of those pro-
vinces, and that every one is at liberty to despatch
ships and merchandise under the flag which they
bear, to whatever place he pleases. Warning, how-
ever, is given, that as there is no Russian Minister
at Constantinople, and in consideration of the pre-
sent differences with the Ottoman Porte, the Go-
vernment cannot be answerable for the safety of the
ships and cargoes: thOse, therefore, which shall at-
tempt to pass the Bosphorus under the Russian flag
must do it at their own risk.
Accounts from Ismail of the 9th of April (N. S.)
say, that in consequence of the quantity of snow that
fell last year, the Danube has risen to an extraordi-
nary height on the breaking up of the ice, and inun-
dated the country. The accounts from Kilia say,
that the ice in the Danube broke up on the 13th of
March, and that on the 26th all the vineyards were
overflowed and several of them wholly destroyed.
BERLIN, MAY 11.—We now know that the
Emperor of Russia will proceed from St. Peters-
burgh to Ismail, which will they► be the head-
quarters of the Russian army, and that the army will
probably march through Bulgaria by the shortest
route, and without much delay, towards Constanti-
nople.
