1).4---e principal article of intelligence brought
ti the French Papers of Wednesday, which ar-
oe ve° this morning, is contained in the Gazette
s:t 4anee, which' states, on the authority of let-
-4tS4tol:l rn
t Marseilles, that the GREEK FLEET lIAS
co TIIE DARDANELLES. If this report be
si rteet, it must be attended with the most deci-
:ve consequences to the cause of the Greeks,
en though they should fall to obtain immediate
ross •
ession or Constantinople : an event which. we
th/t4o means deem impossible, considering that
4reek i)opulation in the Ottoman capital

ts to 60,000, and that the town itself is

most vulnerable on the wafer side. The follow
ing are extracts from these Journals r— •

best authority, we can positively state, that no
amnesty has been promised or published at Turin.

" VIENNA, MAY 26.—His Majesty has ap-
pointed Prince Metternich Grand Chancellor of
the State, the Court, and the Imperial House ;
and has sent the Grand Cross of the Order of
the Iron Crown to Baron Frimont. The ErriPe-

ror has written letters to both these distinguished
personages, and to Counts Stadion, Belleprde,
Bubna, Sedluikt, and Strassoldo, expressing his
Majesty's satisfaction and thanks for the import-
ant services rendered by them during the late
events in Italy.

" It is said that the Pacha of the AIoREA

sent strong remonstrances to the Government ai

he lonian Islands, complaining of the Greeks

being supplied from those Islands with all sorts
of warlike stores and artillery, and that this was
the cause of the lonian Government prohibiting
thi! inhabitants from taking part, either directly
or indirectly in the insurrection of the Greeks.
It is not thought that this prohibition will be
attended with the desired effect. The Greeks
are too warm in the cause to be intimidated ; and

he. Europeans in general, who are in Turkey or

in the neighbouring countries, contribute to the
success of their cause—some from motives of
commercial interest, others from enthusiasm.—
Whatever may be the result of the measures
adopted against the Greeks, the fermentation is
not likely soon to subside, and the insurrection
will be attended with remarkable consequences,
even supposing that the Turks should succeed
iii maintaining their power.

" The Austrian Observer of this day contains
an article respecting Walachia and Moldavia, of
which the following is the substance :
" On the 22d of last month, Theodore tried his seven pieces
of artillery, only three of which were found in a serviceable
state. The Turks march with imposing forces on the side of
Krajowa, leaving small pickets in each village. The deputa-
tion sent by the inhabitants of Moldavia to the Pacha of Thrall,

has been well received, and informed, that the Moldavians who
do not take any part in the insurrection have nothing to fear.
The Pacha requested a second deputation might be sent to con•
cert measures with him for quelling the rebellion. This depu-
tation has already left Jassy. They are waiting with great
anxiety to hear the result of this mission ; and the Boyars, ap-
prehensive of the insincerity of the Pacha, are retiring beyond
the frontiers ; the merchants also are withdrawing from- the
capital with their richest commodities. The number of Greek
soldiers at Jassy amounts to 800; they succeed in raising recruits,
because the Provisional Government is too weak to prevent it.
" The Turks have passed the Danube, and are marching on
Bucharest and Thergowischt— Theodore has ordered a levy-
en-mass, but the success of this measure is very doubtful ; in
the 'mean time, the peaceable inhabitants are suffering from
the fatal effects of the enterprise of this partisan. Ypsilanti
has entrenched himself at Thergowischt, and his credit and
troops have diminished daily since his system of falsehoods,
with respect to the pretended protection of Russia, and the cap-

ture of the fortresses of the Danube by the Greeks, has been

detected."

We received Flanders and Dutch Journals

this day, and subjoin their chief contents :
" BRUSSELS, JUNE 3.—An express has arrived
at Aix-la-Chapelle, with the news that the King
of Prussia will arrive there on the 26th June.—

His Majesty will review near Coblentz the 2d
corps of the army. His Majesty will come, after
the review, to Aix-la-Chapelle, where he will
make a stay of four months with his whole Court.
" ZANTE, MAY 6.—The union of. Prince Kan-
tecuzena with the armies of Ypsilanti and Theo-
dore will be a powerful aid to them. He is rich,
and the first sacrifices he has made are an indl;
cation of what he will be able to do in future.

" The Morea begins to breathe after the long
disorders in which the Franks have incur-
red the greatest danger. Some of the fo-
reign Courts have particularly contributed to re-
store order. One of those who has most distin-
guished himself is M. Hugues de Pauqueville,
whose brother was formerly Council at Joannina.
At the hazard of his own life, he received into his
hotel the unfortunate fugitive Franks, and has
saved the lives of above 1500 persons.
" We are not acquainted with the issue of the
troubles at Smyrna. By what we learn, there
has been a contest between the Franks and the
Turks, in which it is affirmed that the former
obtained considerable advantages, on account of
he consequences which may result from them by
depriving the Porte of the assistance which it ex-
pected from Asia.

"" The. followiog are some•, particulars of the
barbarous execution of the Patriarch :—Ontrages

" PARIS, JUNE 6.—Yesterday, after mass, the
Foreign Ambassadors and Ministers paid their
respects to the KING and Royal Family.. In the
afternoon his MAJESTY transacted business with
the President of the Council of Ministers.
C 4 According to information received from the

of the most atrocious description, which make
humanity shudder, were committed on the body
of this venerable old man, who was nearly 80
years of age. After his strangulation a band
of miserable raggamuflins was ordered to cut
the rope, and to. drag the body, • tied by
the feet, to the arsenal, where the executioner
threw it into the Bosphorus. It is easy to con-
ceive the indignation which these scenes have ex-
cited throughout the Greek Church, where the
Patriarch, for his public character and private
virtues, was as much honoured as the Pope
was in the Latin Church, in the 12th century.
Every day the Clergy are bound to pray for him

and for the Synod; and this daily recollectio

must increase their rage. The number and the
riches of the Clergy must render them extremely

formidable. On Mount Athos alone there are
20,000 Monks—in the Morea about 2100, who

possess a revenue of 918,000 francs, i. e. abo

a tenth part of the riches of the country. In the
rest of Greece there may be about '20,000 Papas.
Considering the well-known fanaticism of the
Greek Church, it is easy to-imagine the dangers
to which the Porte has exposed itself by this

noceeding.

" The Janissaries, it is said, have refused to
march. They pretend that by their laws they
must remain at Constantinople to defend that
capital till the Sultan can put himself at their
head, and lead them to battle. An additional
misfortune is, that the Ramadan begins this year

the 31st May, and ends the 29th June. It must
be strictly observed, on pain of death ; and it is
never till the 15th of the moon of Schelval,
which falls this year on the 15th July, that civil

and military operations re-commence in the Otto
man Empire. At all times the Russians, wile'
they took advantage of this season to enter Tur.
key, have beat the Turks without difficulty,
To this it • may be added, that the Turkish

soldiery never serve for more than one
campaign, which terminates for them at the
new moon in September, which falls this year on

the 26th September, because they must be back
by St. Demetrius. Thus the campaign this year is
(for the Turks) not quite three months."—(Jour-
