FRENCH PAPERS.

PARIS, JUNE
.14, (Thursday.)—The King pre-
sided, at a. Council oT Ministers yesterday, which
sat an hour and a half. '
Prince Hardenberg, dining one day with• the
Prince of Tour and Taxis, mentioned that hehad
concluded at Rome with_ the Pope a new con-
cordat for the Catholic subjects of the Prussian
states in four days, and the latter asking him
how he could terminate au affair of such import-
ance in so short a tune, the former made the fol-
lowing reply :—" It is easy to treat with Rome
-when we have upright views and sincere inten-
tions. I went to the Pope, and told him with
frankness and cordiality that I was sent by
the King to treat of the affairs of the Catholic
subjects with the head of the Catholic church—
that his Majesty wished so to treat these subjects
as not to let them feel that' they had a Protestant
Sovereign—that he provided the dotatiori for the
new archbishoprics and bishoprics, chapters, and
seminaries, specified in the act which I presented ;
and that he left entirely to his Holiness the re-
gulation of their spiritual concerns." The Prince
added, that the archbishops and bishops nomi-
nated by the Pope were exactly those whom the
King and the Catholic Clergy wished to see pro-
moted to their respective
.dignities.; and con-
cluded by saying that he had twice received the
Pope's benediction, and that he thought he felt
within a new vigour at the words of the venerable
'old man. _
The Austrian Observer of the 3d inst. confirms
the previous accounts of the pillage and destruc-
tion of the Greek churches at Constantinople,
and of the renewal of the persecutions and cruel-
ties inflicted on the Greek inhabitants. No fur-
ther accounts had reached Vienna from Moldavia
or'Wallachia ; but a letter from the frontier states,
that it was announced at Folkschun that the Greek
army had been surprised and destroyed by' the
Turks owthe 13th of May.

CONSTANTINOPLE, MAY 13.—The Porte finds,
in the present crisis, great resources in its trea-
slues. Since the destruction of the Greek Em-
pre by MAHOMET.I I. in 1453, there have been 40
Sultans ; and as each Sovereign of the Faithful
is required to leave at his death a treasure, which
is_lleposited in the Seraglio,. and cannot be
suctieil 'i3y 'his successors, there are now forty

of these deposits, which are valued at 240 mil-
lions of florins in money. If we add to this the
value of the preciouS stones,, jewels, the
Seraglio must curtain'
.treasures to an enormous
Amount. •-

VIENNA, AI NE I.—A,c. cording to advices frorn
Bucharest of the 7th May, THEODORE continues
his preparations of_ _defence in the Convent
of Cotrocsini, and YPSILANTI is fortifying Ter-
gowischt. No harmony is said to subsist between
those Chieftains, notwithstanding the Turkish
troops are reported to be advancing rapidly
against them.

The news from Jassy came down to the 20th
May. On the.gth the Hetaerists (the-Hetaer is
a kind of .academic association which was esta-
blished in 1814) repaired te.the Divan, and re-
proached the Boyars for the traitorous corres-
pondence they were carrying on with the Pacha
of Ibrailow. They dissolved the local Govern,
ment, and took posSession .of the Hospodar's
palace; since which time FENDECA, the Chief of
the Hetaerists, has assumed the Sovereign Pdwer
at Jassy. Such was the state of affairs up to the
17th, when news arrived of the defeat of the
Greeks at Galacz, by the Seraskier of IBRAILOW.
The lletaerists quitted the town in the morning
of the 18th to the number of 500 men, and took
the road to Kapo. A body of 700 Turks were'
marching on Jassy from Prushi and their head-
quarters on the 18th were at Faltschi.
MADRID, JUNE B.—Notwithstanding the Go-
vernment took measures to prevent the arrest of
the Prior of ATOCIIA. from being generally
known_ ~.yet the people soon became acquainted
with it, and shewed' a disposition to make him
suffer the same fate as the unfortunate VINUESA
but everyprecaution has been adopted for his
safety, and the guards of the prison have been
doubled. .

All the Militia of New Castile, La Mancha,
and Estremadura are assembled at Alcala de
Enaras, about six leagues from Madrid. It is
said the Government intend to send them to Ar-
ragon and Catalonia, which provinces appear de-
sirous of separating from the Government- of the
Peninsula, and forming a new Government.
It is`reported that 16,000 quadruples, destined
for Mexico, have been seized at the gates of
Madrid. •

It appears, that before the sentence of the
Court of First Instance, at Valencia, sentencing.
General ELro to death, can be carried into exe-
cution, it must be confirmed by the Territorial
Audience of that Province, and signed by the.
KING. -There is little hope, however, of his
sentence being annulled or mitigated.
