Etats, AUG. 27.—The news from Greece proves
that the Government did right to persevere in send-
ing the expedition, notwithstanding the probable re-
turn of Ibrahim to Egypt. He appears determined
to leave the Peloponnessus, but he will take with
him only his 10,000 Arabs. The Turks who were
under his orders 101 I emain in the Morea, and he
will leave in their keeping the fortresses of wYch he
was master. We may conjecture, therefore, that
our troops will have some battles to fight before oh-
taining possession of the country. The Turks at
present occupying it amount to 6,000-3,000 being
at Putras, and 3,000. distributed in Coron, Modon,
and Navarin. They may he supported by the Mos-
,ulmans of Albania and Epirus, who have only to
cross the gulf of Lepanto to conic to their assistance.
Six thousand more Turks occupy Eubcea, and
are masters of the Acropolis. They can concert
their measures with the forces in the tilorea, and they
are yet sufficiently strong to guarantee them against
despair, and dissuade them from laying down their
arms. Mahmoud also shews himself inflexible. Ile
will hear nothing of concessions. Thrall= evacuates
the Morea in apite of him, and the soldiers whom
he still has on the Greek territory will fight, if not
from fanaticism, yet from obedience. Our troops,
therefore, it is to be presumed, will not make them-
selves masters of the Morea without a blow; a con-
test more or less serious will ensue, but. -the result
cannot be doubtful. Supported by all the Greek
population, and strong in the superiority of their
tactics, our soldiers will soon disperse the Turkish
bands which yet pollute the territory of the Iliad.
The resistance they may meet with will only serve
to enhance the glory of their enterprise.

PARIS, AUG. 27.—Our readers will probably re-
collect the excommunication pronounced by the
Bishop of St. Claude, against a poor Cure of his
diocese, and that he charged the Prefect, as the se-
cular power, with the execution of his Bull. The
following new events will shot, that the subordina-
tion of the temporal to the spiritual power has
passed in the department of the Jura from the chief
'authority of the district to the subordinate authori-
ties :—On April 17th, 1826, M. Belleroehe, Sub
Prefect of Dole, wrote to M. Waters to ask him
officially, under the name of the disinteresred advo-
cate of the Jesuits, to relieve their establishment at
Dole from the land tax and the duties en doors and
windows. The law requires, that in such eases
a petition and documents shall be presented to the
Magistrates but neither for the good Fathers mi.
their good friends,have instructions been given, regu-
lations made, or laws tiacted. On the demand' of the
Sub-Prefect, the Pretect ordered that the buildings
and gardens of the Estate de Scey, with its park, the
house of the widow Engle Courtier, and the house of
M.Ciarnier, should only be nominally entered into the
lists of the land-tax, and of the duties om windows
and doors, because they belonged to the Ecclesias-
tical School of Dole, and are devoted to the public
service; and in consequence two ordinances of dis-
charge were delivered by the Prefecture to the tax_
gatherer of Dole. Encouraged by this first success,
the Sub-prefect required that the property purchased
by trustees for them and theirs, such as the Proeu-
reur of the Good Fathers, M. Roux de Bares, should
also be freed from the same taxes. It was, how-
ever, unanimously decided by the assessors that there
was no reason for this exoneration, for it did not ap.l
pear that the property was purchased for the arc
of
the petit seminary. Notwithstanding this opinion, the
Prefect decreedthat this property should only benonn-
nally inscribed in the list of contributions; and in the
i
ardour of his zeal for the Jesuits, he sent mme-
diately a copy of his decree to the Director of the
1 axes, and ordered him, contrary to custom, to re-
turn to hint directly the ordinances of discharge,
which ought to have been immediately sent by the
Director to the Receiver-General, with the Minis-
ter's consent, to allow such an exemption from taxa-
tion as a privilege to the Jesuits. Will the execu-
tion of the Ordinance of June 16 he confined to
such functionaries '% We hope not.
