FOREIGN 1\ T h',E4I„IGENCE.

PARIS, Nov. 12.—T ;le king held a levee yes-
terday, and afterwards transacted business with
the Duke de Richelieu and the Minister of the

Interior.

Count de Goltz, the Russian Minister, gave a
grand dinner, the day before yesterday, to the
King's Ministers and the Foreign Ambassadors.

Madame Catalani has just purchased the beau-
tiful estate of Les Orines, situated near Chatelle-
riault, and long the property of the family of
ti'oyer d'Argenson. -
. letter from Rome states that the Count de
St. Leu, the Ex-King of Holland, and Jerome
Buonaparte, the Ex-King of Westphalia, are ex-
pected at that capital. The son of Lucien Buo-
naparte is to be married to the daughter of M.
Boudot, with a fortune of 300,000 scudi: and
the ron of Prince Ruspoli to the daughter of the
celebrated Prince of Peace...

It seems that the Government is actively en-
gaged with the plan of forming agricultural esta-
blishments on the banks of the Senegal. Grants
of land are given to every person who has the
means of working them ; premiums and assistance
are to be granted, to the first planters ; in short,
every encouragement will be given to induce
settlers to go there.

VIENNA, OCT. 9.3.—(Extract of a Letter from
a Greek.)—We are without direct news from the
Morea, but Tripolizza ought by this time to have
surrendered. The present contest will be de-
cided on the sea. The Greek fleet has again as-
sembled, and is at anchor in the port of Nava-
rino ; the Ottoman fleet has quitted Patras, and

•
is cruizing near Zante.
Nov. I.—According to letters from Trieste,
• several merchant•ships have met the Greek fleet
on the coasts of the Peloponnesus. It con-
sists of more than one hundred sail, besides
fire-ships, and the commanders anticipate the
destruction of the Turkish fleet. Several
islands of the Archipelago seem disposed to
accept the amnesty offered by the Porte, which
has produced a great effect throughout the
remainder of Greece ; but the hostages in the
hands of the Navarques of llydria, Spezia, and
Ypsara, deter them from doing so. By the cap-
ture of the principal fortified towns in the Pelo-
ponnesus, the force of the Hellenes is become
much more powerful, and the Turks will find it
very difficult to re-conquer this country. Jussuf
Paella has concentrated all his forces near
Patras, where he remains on the defensive,

expecting with impatience succours from the
Turkish fleet. In Attica and Livadia, the
Turks have not been more fortunate in their mi-
litary operations. The siege of Athens costs the
Mussulmans many lives, and seems likely to be
protracted •
yet longer. From Albania and Epi-
rus we have no certain news.

Many arrests have taken place in the course of
September. in the lonian Isles of St. Maura and

Cephalonia.

According to the latest accounts from Molda-
via, many Hetarists continue to present them-
selves on the, Austrian frontiers, and are always
received with humanity. They concur in saying
that the wandering bapds in the mountains have
been dispersed or destroyed.
Anasnuno, Nov. 6.—[Extract from a Private
Letter.]-I.am enabled to inform you, and from
good authority, that. Count Lieven, the Russian
Ambassador at London, went to Hanover on no
other mission than that of congratulating the
King of England on his arrival in his German
dominion, and that he took no part in the nego-
tiations which may have taken place between
the Prince de Metternich and the Marquis of
Londonderry.- With respect to the negotiations
relative to the affairs of Turkey, they have been
carried on by the great Powers by written corn-

munications. Couriers are frequently passing
through our town, and in. one day we remarked
two French expresses proceeding with all speed
to Petersburgh.

• FRANKFORT, Nov. B.—We. read in the Of&
cial Gazette of Berlin, that a Lieutenant of the
Captain Pacha had left Constantinople for the
Archipelago, with a Greek Bishop, who was to
endeavour to bring bhck the revolted islanders to
their allegiance.

ULM, Nov. s.—lt is again asserted that the
Ex-King of Sardinia, Victor Emanuel, and the
Prince di Carignano, are going to take up their
residence at Rome.

ODESSA, OCT. 8.----We have sometimes news
from Greece. The sieges of the fortresses pro-
ceed but slowly, the Greeks being without artil-
lery, ammunition, and military science. Yet we
have just heard of the reduction of several
places after an obstinate defence. That of Na-
varino (the Pylos of the ancients) is of the
greatest importances it covers Messene and La-
conia on We side of the sea, and it possesses a
very fine port, which is protected by the
famous island of Sphacteria, and furnishes a
safe anchorage for all the Greek fleets. Our

brave seamen who form the Admiralty have
beaten the Turks wherever they have met them.
The Turks have, however, awakened from their
slumbers, and pagg the Bosphorus in crowds.—
They are become pore cautious,,and though they
have proclaimedi. an amnesty, yet they murder
all the• Greeks whom they meet. ' Young Grecian
women are tak-eilaway -forcibly, and sold for 40 or
50 piastres, but frequently assassinated under the
most atrocious circumstances : even the Turkish
ma les of 10 or 12 years old are provided with knives,
and assassinate the Greek children, or dispatch
the wounded Greeks. We may rely on the fact
that not a third. of the Greeks who resided at
Constantinople, Smyrna, Ephesus, &c. are now
alive. The cruelties of the Turks have never en-
tirely ceased, but they have been renewed with
increased fury since a war with Russia has
been apprehended, and the general arming
of the Mussulmans has been - enforced.—
It is asserted that the Russian Govern►nent has
expressed its unqualified approbation of the con-
duct of the Baron de Stroganoff, and declared
that it has broken off all direct communication
with the Porte.

MADRID, OCT. 31.—His Majesty is still at the
Escurial. The King has accepted the resigna-
tion of Senor Barata, thd Minister of Finance.
D. Angel Vallejo is appointed to succeed him,
pro tempore.
The Territorial Audience of Saragossa have
sentenced D. F. Villamor to eight years' exile in
one of the Canary Islands, for conspiring against
the Constitptional Government.
The news from Port St. Mary and Xeres are
very consolatory. The Yellow Fever is subsid-
ing, and the arrival of winter will dissipate all
alarms relative to those provinces.

CORTES EXTRAORDINARY.
SITTING OF OCTOBER 29.

Third reading of the proposed law on military
decorations.—Discussion on the new tariff of cus-
tom duties continued. Several articles adopted
after long debates.

SITTING OF OCTOBER 30.

A dispatch from the Government was read,
informing the Cortes that his Majesty had de-
manded a speedy report from the Council of
State, on the measures to be adopted for the
pacification of the Colonies.
A letter from the Minister of War was read,
to which was annexed a projet of law for the
military territorial division of the kingdom and
the adjacent islands. His Excellency explained
the importance of this measure, and stated the
desire of his Majesty that it may be taken into
early consideration. Deferred to the Committee
of War.

The project of law on public health and cha-
ritable establishments was read.
The discussion on the tariff of custom duties
was resumed. The proposed law, consisting of 39
articles, was adopted. The 38th is conceived in the
following terms :—" Goods of the first and second
classes may be warehoused for two years; two
per cent. shall be paid on them the first year, and
one per cent the second year, confemably to the
regulation."
