FRENCH PAPERS.

CORFU, DEC. 17.—The French brig of war Le
Vo!age arrived on the 13th from Navarin, with a
Courier from Pat is, and, on the 15th, the English
frigate the Raleigh, with despatches frFem Poros,
where the Ambassadors still were on the 10th.
Letters from Paints of the 6th, announce that a
contagious disease, which unhappily seems to be
pestilential, had broken out at Braehi, 10 leagues
from Patras, in the province of Kalavrita. The
French Authorities immediately resolved, in a Coun-
cil summoned for the purpose, to place a cordon
about the infected place, and to send physicians to
it in order to obtain information . respecting the
nature of the contagion. All vessels coming from
the interior of the Gulf of Patras are subjected to a
quarantine of forty days, nor will they even be al-
lowed to quit the Gulf before the expiration of that-
time.

The first number of a French Journal, called
Le Courrier D'Orient, edited by M. Maxune Ray-
band, was published at Patras on the 6th December.
This Journal, printed on paper of the largest size,
will appear once a week, but en no fixed day.
The Corfu Gazette of the 13th announces, that
the Turks, besieued in Salona by 2,000 Greeks, un-
der the command of Vassa, evacuated that place on
the sth of this month. This paper speaks also of
various actions which have taken place between the
Greeks and Turks in the province of Karpenissi,
and in thq mountains of Agrafa.
Ypsilanti has written to the President of Greece,
that he had just occupied by capitulation the town
of Livadia, the garrison of which, consisting of 1000
Turks and Albanians, bound themselves in writing
not to bear arms again against the Greeks during
the present contest.
The Turks retreated towards Negropont and the
Albanians to Zeitouni, taking with them the
Turkish Commander as a security for the arrears of
pay due to them.—Austrian Observer.
PA RIS, JA N. 13.-- The Moniteur of to-day contains
a Royal Ordinance, granting to the Count de la Fer-
ronnays, Minister of Foreign Affairs, three months'
leave of absence for the recovery of his health, and
appointing the Keeper of the Seals to hold the office
of Minister of Foreign Affairs during the Count's ab-
sence. Dated the 11th January.
The German Journals received this morning bring
no news from the theatre of war. A letter from the
frontiers of Servia only states that a courier from
Constantinople had brought to the Pacha of Belgrade
letters dated Bth December, and at the same time
had delivered to him firmans addressed to Prince
Arilosch, which the Pacha immediately sent to him.
The price of previsions was daily rising in Wal-
lachia.

A Frankfort Journal affirms that it was reported
at Amsterdam that Russia intended to contract for a
loan of 100 millions, and that the small loan of last
year was only a trial to sound the inclinations of the
capitalists.

PARIS, JAN. 11.-The English Journals, arrived
to-day, speak of a communication made by the Ca-
binet of London to the President of Greece, re-
questiag him not to permit the limits assigned to
the new State of Greece to be passed, and not to
allow the Greeks to carry on wur against the Turks,
or the territory belonging to them. This agree.-
very well with the conduct of Mr. Stratford Can-
ning, but it appears to be contradicted by facts.
The Voltigeur, lately arrived from Nayarit], brings
intelligence that 4,000 Greeks, under Prince Ypsi-
lanti, proceeded in the middle of December to attack
Lepanto, and, after a brisk fire, made themselves
masters of the town, which made them expect
speedily to obtain possession of the fort. It is diffi-
cult to reconcile these contradictory reports, unless
we suppose that the. hostilities took place before the
communication reached Count Capo d'lstria..
An unheard-of violation of the right of asylum
has taken place among us. Some Catalan emissaries
came seven or eight days ago, and seduced some
Carlists, who had taken refuge at Toutouse, by de-
ceitful promises, carried them into Spain, and de-
livered them up to the Count d'Espagne, and perhaps
they are already put out of the world. Among
them was a Commissary, an aged and infirm man.
One of our police warned the Spaniards against the
snare. We hope that PO more of the unfortunate
persons who have taken refuge among us will be
forced away to be put to death.
The Members of the Bar at Rennes and Nantes
Dave presented a reclamation against the Ordinance
of November, 1822, relative to the discipline of the
bar. It is to hoped that the bar at Paris will not
be behind that at Rennes.

PARIS, JaN.!! 2. In spite of three Ministerial bul-
letins, the health of M. de Ferronays is not such as
to allow of his speedy return to business. Even this
day there was a consultation of physicians to decide
whether lie could be removed to the south of France
without danger. However the Ministers may decide
as to his office, the Session approaches, and the
Chambers will probably demand some reason for the
delays and shifts under which the public interests
suffer, and the dignity of the Government is corn-

promised.
BELLAC, JAN. 6.—A respectable citizen, M. Des-
bordes, who has been both a Magistrate and a Mern-
.

ber of the Chamber during the 100 days, and after-

wards exiled, died on December 21st, at his house in

Bellac. His family, in consequence, requested the
curate of Bussiere, Portevine, to fix the hour of his

funeral ; and to the request he replied in writing,
that he had received "express orders from the

Bishop of Limoges, which he dare not transgress,
not to bury the deceased." The funeral, though

deprived of the assistance of the Church, was nu-
merously attended, more than 500 persons being
present. MM. Charreyion, sen. and Mmtrat Bal-
lange, pronounced discourses over the grave, which
drew tears from the spectators. He was buried at
the bottom of his garden.
By an Ordinance, dated Dec. 24, and published
in this Paper, the number of ordinary members of the
Royal Academy of Inscriptions and Belles-lettres is
fixed at 40, and the number of free Academicians at
10. The vacancies are to be filled up during 1829

and 1830. The sum allowed to the Academy is
98,000 francs per annum.

PISA, DEC. 26.—(Extract of a Private Letter.)---
Several letters from Greece mention the service of
the French in the Morea. The country is free, they
say, but our fate is not decided. We know not what
are to be our boundaries ; every thing is uncertain,
even our independence. We did hope that the
French army would deliver Athens; but a Power,
not over benevolent (England), stopped the expedi-
tion, and classic Athens still remains in the hands of
the Turks. We still hope to treat with the Sultan;
and if he accept the propositions made to him, we
shall be his tributaries and his subjects. We live in
anguish, surrounded by the Turks, and no certaio
organization can be established, Our hope is in the
arrogance of Mahmoud, which will make him refuse
every proposal.
This letter is from 111. Eynard, who concludes by
saying—that Count Cape d'lstria has informed his
of the arrival of two Freneh vessels, with agricul-
tural and other mstruments.

PAWN, JAN. 12.—A great number of Constitu-
tional Deputies have already arrived at Paris, and
they are to hold their Srst meeting on the 16th.
The Departmental and Municipal Laws will occupy
the attention of the Legislature in the first instance.
M. Mollien, French Consul to Haiti, and M. Saint
Nlacay, are to proceed from Brest to Haiti, on board
the Ceres ; the former carries out with him the ulti-
matum of the French Government to facilitate the
ordinance of emancipation. France, it is said, re-
quires that the interest of the indemnity granted to
