VOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

FRENCH PAPERS.
(From the Gazette de France, Jan. 14.)
PARIS, JAN. seems now certain that the
army of the Morea is to return to Prance. A letter
from Modon, of the 22d December, informs us that
the Aide-de-Camp of the Minister of War, who em-
barked at Toulon on board the Venus frigate, arrived
at the head-quarters on the lsth, where he made
known the order for the recall of the army, of which
he was the bearer. The General-in-Chief was re-
solved that it should be decided by drawing lots
which regiments should go home first. In conse-
quence all the numbers of the regiments were thrown
into an urn.

General Durrieu presented himself for the brigade
of General Schneider, and drew No. 29. The
Colonel of the 35th drew the No. of his own Regi-
ment, and General Sebastiani No. 46. Accordingly
the 29th, 35th, and 46th Regiments have received
orders to embark on the 24th December. Besides
these three Regiments, there will be embarked at
the same time all the soldiers who have a right to
their discharge, and all the sick who can bear the
voyage.
fhe Scipio, of the line, is to take 600 men on
board; the Galatea frigate, 500 ; and the remainder
will come in transports. The other Regiments
expect to depart in the beginning of next mowth.
The Engineers, the Artillery, and the Staff, will
be the last to leave, which it is thought will not be
before the end of March or beginning of April.
(From the Messager den Chambres of Tuesday.)
ISLAND OF ZEA, DEC. 4.—Our political affairs
continue to improve. Order and tranquillity con-
tinue to prevail here, and trade begins to revive.
The Greek troops encamped at Megara have
taken the field, and have been victorious in several
actions which they have had with the Turks in
Eastern Greece. We hope that by this time the
Greeks are masters of all the coast of the Gulf of
Lepanto, including the town of Salona.
In Candia affairs continue to be favourable to the
Greeks, who oblige the Turks to remain shut up in
the fortresses. An expedition of 2,500 or 3,000
men is soon to go to the support of the Greeks in
that Island. It will be accompanied by about ten
large vessels, besides smaller ones. Tombasis will
command this expedition. He is to be. Governor-
General of Candia.
The Russian fleet intended for the blockade of
the Dardanelles passed through these seas a fort-
night ago.

HAMBURGH AND DUTCH PAPERS.

CC,PENHAGEN, JAN. 3.7-Count Wedel Jarlsberg
lately passed through this city on his return from
London, whither he had been to endeavour to ob-
tain a modification of the mode of levying the duty
on the importation of Norwegian timber into England.
He is said to entertain hopes of success; and it is
probable this subject will be brought forward in the
.next Session of Parliament.

SWITZERLAND, DEC. 30.—1 t is reported, that to
remedy the want of disciplined troops experienced
by the Greek Government, a Swiss corps will be
raised for its service. France, or according to others,
all the parties to the Treaty of the 6th July will
guarantee the conditions and the pay of the corps
for the first three or six years. _ _

STOCKHOLM, DEC. 26.—Though it is confirmed
that the Emperor of Russia will visit Finland in the
course of this month,. the letters from Sr. Peters-
-burgh and Helsingfors differ concerning ►he time of
his Majesty's departure from the capital. The latter
say he was expected every moment, whereas those
from St. Petersburgh say he was not to set out till
to-morrow. It was reported yesterday that the Em-
peror had already arrived at Helsingfors.
The Board of Customs• has submitted to the Go-
vernment the plan of a new tariff, by which it is
proposed henceforward to admit the importation of
all kinds of goods, only imposing on some very high
duties for the protection of our manufactures.—
Haraburgh Papers, Jan. 10.
ST. PETERSBURGH, DEC. 29.—The Board of
Censorship has decided, that in future all books
which shall be attempted to be smuggled into the
empire shall be confiscated, and sold by auction, if
they are books the circulation of which is permitted ;
if not, they are to be sent abrinid again.—Journal
de St. Peter:burgh, Dec. 80.
Letters from Warsaw say, that some dissatisfac-
tion was felt at the conduct of Admiral Hayden,
who, it is thought, might easily have prevented the
supply of provisions' from reaching Constantinople,
if he had been a little more active.—Hague Courant,
Jan. 14.
