LONDON,
THURSDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 31, 1829.

The French Papers contain a report on the
authority of an article from Frankfort, that the
Emperor of RussiA has had a relapse ; but it
appears to be undeserving of credit. We have
later news from Berlin, which make no mention
of it :

(From the Messeger des Chambres of Monday.)

PARIS, DEc. 27.
An ordinance is announced to us, to introduce a
municipal system.
It appears to be decided that the Ministry will
publish, between this and the opening of the
Chambers, an ordinance which will make some con-
cessions to the Communes. It proposes to avoid,
by this means, the presentation and discussion of a
project of law for the organization of the Councils-
General of the Departments and the Councils of
Districts and Communes. This project, it is said,
will merely decentralize some part of the departmen-
tal affairs, without yielding any thing to the election
and choice of the citizens. The text would be only
a part of the projected great coup d'etat which fell
before the noble attitude of the country. This or-
dinance was to accompany the modification of the
electoral law, and of the election respecting the
press.
The Moniteur of Monday, the 28th of Decem-
ber, contains a report to the King from the Minister
of Finance, and a Royal ordinance founded upon it,
the object of which is to introduce more regularity
and precision in the accounts of the departments of
the several Ministers.

morning :

VIENNA, DEC. 18.

An English courier, coming from London, has
passed through here on his way to Constantinople;
it is believed that he carries to Sir Robert Gordon
the final result of the late conferences in London, in
which the entire independence of Greece is de-
clared. It is said that only a short time will be
given to the Porte to choose between the acceptance
of the protocol of 22d March, which was stipulated
at Adrianople, or the new arrangement proposed iz
the conferences at London.
VIENNA, DEC. 19. —Metalliques, 103 ; Four per Cents,
931 ; Bank Shares, 12601.

TRIESTE, DEC. 16.

A Sardinian vessel, which has arrived here in
twelve days from Canea, brings word that the in-
surrection in Candia continues with the same vio-
lence, and that the Greeks, who are the aggressors,
make frequent incursions into the Turkish territory,
which lead to skirmishes with divided success. In
one of these the Captain of a French man-of-war that
happened to be at anchor near the spot, endeavoured
to act as mediator, and accompanied by some
of his crew repaired to the scene of action. In
spite of his remonstrances, however, an engagement
ensued, in which the French took part, and lost
four men. It is believed that the Candiot Greeks
are still secretly encouraged by the Greek Govern-
ment and the Continent to continue hostilities, in
the hope of at length obtaining the emancipation of
the island.

The Captain of a ship which has arrived to-day,
in twenty days, from Smyrna, says it was reported
there that several English men-of-war, coming from
the ocean, had lately arrived from Malta. The
trade of Smyrna begins to be more brisk. Many
ships of war, of all nations, are stationed there : the
Austrian flotilla was likewise assembling in that port.
ODESSA, DEC. 5.

The state of this town continues to be satisfac-
tory. No new case of plague has occurred. No-
thing new has happened in the lazaretto of the
port : in the provisional lazaretto three persons
(lied. The accounts from Bessarabia are satisfac-
tory. To our great sorrow, the winter, which set in
so early, has nut become milder, but the cold is
daily more severe. The thermometer has beer► at
13° below Zero, and the barometer has been uncom-
monly high. The harbour is not yet frozen over,
but there is a good deal of ice on the coast. In
short, nobody here remembers such an early and se-
vere winter.
His Excellency Count Woronzow has returned to
this town. No ships have arrived since Nov. 30 to
yesterday, but 27 have sailed with cargoes of corn.
THE HAGUE, DEC. 24.

The first Chamber of the States General met
to-day, and gave its assent to the seven projects of
low relative to the finance (including those concern-
ing the annual and decennial budgets), voted by the
Second Chamber on the 19th and 23d inst.
The Second Chamber of the States General has
adjourned to the 18th January.
BRUSSELS, DEC. 26.

Our letters from the Hague say that tie Mem-
bers of the Second Chamber have separated with
feelings of the most lively satisfaction at the issue of
the debate on the Budget. Several Depu-
ties, whose opinions appeared very different
from each other, have happily come to an under.
standing, and all have congratulated themselves on
being able to perform their duties conscientiously
without affecting the interests of our different pro-
vinces, and lightening as much as the service of the
state would permit the weight of the public burdens.
The liberality with which the King has endeavoured
to answer the objections made in the sections and in
the debate, the constitutional measure to which he
