FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

FRENCH PAPERS.

(Frera the Gazette de France dated Wednesday, Dec. 12.)

FROM THE BANKS OF THE DANUBE, Nov. 29.
It is said here that the Porte having declared that
the late events at Navarin released it from the con-
ditions wilich it had accepted in the treaty of Aker-
mann, Baron Ottenfels immediately signified to the
Divan, that the Court of Austria could not approve
such a resolution. It is even added, that the Inter-
nuncio intimated that the mediation of Austria de-
pended on the vigorous observance of the treaty of
Ackermann.

VIENNA, Dec. 2.—( From the Augsburgh Gazette.)
—Persons who are well-informed assert, that how-
ever alarming the news from Constantinople may be,
there still remains some hope of preserving peace.
;he question of intervention, rejected by the Divan,
is said to have been comprehended by implication,
in a proposal of an armistice lately presented by
Baron Ottenfels; and it is not impossible but this
last proposal may be acceded to, because the Porte
would thereby gain time for its armaments, and
might reckon on more favourable occurrences during
the winter. The Russians, on their side, if it should
be necessary to go to war, would not be sorry to wait
for the spring.
CONSTANTINOPLE, NOV. 11.-A park of artillery
of 200 pieces of cannon is gone to Silistria, and
about 600 waggons with ammunition have taken the
road to Rudschuk. The Sultan's Grand Chamber-
lain is gone to Adrianople to prepare a residence for
the Sultan, who will repair to the army as soon as
the Ambassadors have left Constantinople. The
Frank merchants are placing all their property in
safety, and can find no more secure depot than the
hotels of the Austrian and Prussian Ambassadors,
and those of the Legations of the second order;
because all ships, without distinction, are detained
in the port by the general embargo. Two Russian
vessels, attempting to escape in the night, were
stopped, and placed under rigorous surveillance.
The Russian Minister sent his Dragoman to the
Reis Effendi to complain of this ; but the latter an-
swered, that he was sorry he could not change a
resolution taken by the Divan, and that these Inca-
cures were but trifling reprisals for the insult offered
to the Ottoman flag. It is said that M. de Ribeau-
pierre was so dissatisfied, that he 'would have de-
parted immediately, had he not been detained by the
representations of his colleagues. All communica-
tions with Europe were interrupted for five days,
and have been re-established only on the interces-
sion of the Austrian Internuncio.

(From the Constitutiont4el of Tuesday.)
MADRID, Nov. 30.—(Private Letter.)—The
cause of arresting the Reverend Father Almaraz,
whom M. Perez Navarro conducted from Rome to
the castle of Peniscola, is no longer a mystery. He
was formerly confessor to the Prince of Peace (Go-
doy), and subsequently of Charles IV. and Maria
Louisa.—While at Rome, by the assistance of
Godoy, he undertook to write the private life of
Ferdinand, while Prince of Asturias, and since his
accession to the throne. His Holiness, alarmed at
such an enterprise, informed Ferdinand of the fact.
M. Navarro was sent to seize him and his papers.
When he understood that he was to be conducted
to Spain, he exclaimed, " I am lost !" When he ar-
rived at Tarragona, his' Majesty inquired very
anxiously after the papers which had been taken in
the prisoner's possession.
The Council of State and the Council of Mini-
sters are assembled, for the purpose of considering
the remonstrances which ought to be made by our
Government to Brazil, in virtue of the Treaty exist-
ing between that Power and the Cisplatine Re-
public, when the Portuguese troops attacked Monte
Video. Nothing. has yet been definitively deter-
mined on the subject.
It is said the Count d'Espagne is to be appointed
Minister _of. War.
The King answered some Prelates who sought
the pardon of the Monk Tugnal, that there was no
pardon foc.high treason.
PARIS, Dac. IL—THE MINISTRY AND THE CON-
GREGATION:R appears that M. de Villele intends
definitively to remainTrime Minister, and to present
himself to the Chambers, escorted by M. de Pey-
,ionnet. The debate, will then openly commence be-
tween France and the Congregation. This great
.question will then be determined, and we shall be
freed from the bitter anguish which now torments
's. It unfortunately happens, that it will be two
months before that discussion will take place: and
TWO months are an age, if we reflect on the preca-
rious situation of commerce, industry, and credit,
which have so imperi4.ms a demand for confidence
and stability. And on what. pledges, or what future
can we depend, when all i 3 uncertain both at home
and abroad : when we are engaged in a war, the re-
sults of which it is impossible to foresee: and when
it is to be continued by a ;Ministry in complete dis-
cord with all the interests and all the feelings of the
country. It appears that, some days since, the
Miniiters were uncertain whether they should yield
before the expression of public opinion; but the
Congregation, of which they are the servile puppets,
thought it better to preserVe Ministers, who can
only exist or perish with.it. It is said that intima-
tions have been made to certain persons to come and
support the tottering Ministry; but, as the continu-
ance of M. Trauchet and M. Delavau, in the Police,
and the Marquis Vaulehier in the direction of the
Ports, was made an indispensable condition, they
were refused.
The great wound under which the country la-
bours, is the secret influence of the Congregation
—this second league, which labours underhand to
ruin our Institutions ; but it must he condemned to
the punishment of open day. It was particularly
against the sinister and corrupting influence of this
second league, that faithful and generous France has
displayed her feeling in the Electoral Colleges;—
that France, who demands, in exchange for so much
readiness in its submission, a little candour in the
men placed at the bead of its affairs.
(From the Courier Francais,) •
AUSTRIAN DIPLOMACY,
PARIS, DEC. • 11.—We have received from Ger
many the following important document :
Copy of an Official Communication from Prince
Metternich, to Baron OttenCels, dated Sept. 22 :
" The complicated and embarrassing situation in
-which you have just placed our Cabinet, M. le
Baron, by the inexplicable conduct you have adopted
in refusing your co-operation with the simultaneous
measure of the. -Ministers of the Three Allied
'Powers towards the Porte, has singularly affected
his majesty the Emperor and King, who blames you,
And disavows you entirely on'the present occasion.
" It is not, in fact, possible to comprehend the
reasons which have induced you to refuse the invita-
tion which these gentlemen sent you ; and if you
had properly appreciated the spirit of the instructions
which I transmitted you in December last, and
Which have not since been revokAd, you would, most
assuredly, not have committed such a mistake.
"In order to repair it, which is the least can
do, I must impose on you the penalty of going your-
self to make an excuse to your colleagues—that you
have misunderstood the orders which 1-4,.,d been
given you; declaring to them that you are ready,
_henceforward, to support, by all the means in your
power, the proceedings. tending to make the Porte
relay from its obstinacy, and not persist in its refusal
to adopt the salutary measures lately proposed to it,
the wishes of his Majesty being in entire conformity
with those of his august Allies, for the preservation
of generaipeace, and for the re-establishment of
order and seugrity in the East."
nia'doeuMent explains how the Austrian Ca-
-met, which for xu, long a time had made common
cause with the Divau, Ns shown itself for some time
0,,,p0,ed to support the proceedings of the Triple
,Alliance. It seems that Prince Metternich, seeing
retolutiou of the Three Powers, was terrified
he had Pursued up to that time. He
the policy
felt -ahAt '2,11.".t w(uldl't Ptoduced in Europe by
hoc 4-yrrip aaily for thet T
Powers at
tile moment when
'Ore:: 1-'(w,ers were arming to put
t 1, ,e

an end to the disasters and murders of Greece.—
He felt that if the intervention produced a war, her
Cabinet might be in an embarrassing situation; and
that if a dismemberment were at length decided on,
her views on Bosnia and Servia might be opposed
by his friendly relations with the Porte; and that it
would be difficult to share the spoils of his Allies.
M. de Ottenfels has paid for M. tie Metternich, for
nobody will believe that the Ambassador has not
understood his instructions. He has just received
a title and honours. Fur six years the Austrian In-
ternuncio has acted in the same manner, without
being either disavowed or blamed. M. de Metter-
nich could not avow that he had given instructions
contrary to the views of the three Powers, and in
consequence of recent circumstances, he repented of
having given those instructions. The Ambassador
was therefore obliged to make the apology, being
remunerated by the favour of the Court.
(From the Journal des Debuts.)

PARIS, DEC. 11.-If the part to be taken by
each of the Powers which have signed the Treaty
of London, in the war which is preparing, be uncer-
tain, that of Austria gives rise to uneasiness. It is
supposed she will accept the part of a Mediator. To
negociate at Constantinople while battles are fight-
ing under its walls, is not to be sufficiently acquaint-
ed with events to•profit by them. At Vienna, more-
over, they understand the policy of waiting, which
very often succeeds. The agents for Austria have
already, it is said, purchased large quantities of corn,
which they are sending to the Danube, and the ma-
gazines will now be followed by troops. Neutrality
often begins by an Army of Observation, but by it
is seldom finished.

MARSEILLES, DEC. 3.—Letters from Vienna,
Odessa, and Italy, announce that an embargo has
been laid on the English, French and Russian ships,
and that the Ambassadors had ceased their functions.
This news, which is considered correct, has caused
great -bustle. Our city will lose very much, what-
ever may be the consequences. The Ministers are
accused of having allowed themselves to be surprised
by this war as well as that of Algiers. The follow-
ing fact is, I believe, authentic :
" France has made offers to the Dey of Algiers,
who would not even listen to the first proposals.
We have done all in our power to bring peace ; the
Dey has rejected our offer with disdain, pretending
that he had been unjustly attacked by the blockade
—that he had been insulted by the Consul, for
which he had obtained no satisfaction—and that he
could carry on war against France, which he did not
dread ; as for the disembarkation of troops, he should
expect them, and that he had good friends, who
would come to his assistance."

This news has put an end to the hope of soon
seeing the ridiculous war put an end to. Our in-
fluence at Alexandria i 3 at an end ; the Pacha has
ordered three frigates to be built—one in Sweden,
one in EnW.lnd, and the third at Leghorn. The
Minister of Finance, the Armenian Bogosa, is fa-
vourable to the English, and particularly to the
house of Briggs and Co., in which he is supposed
to have an interest. This house receives all the
cottons in the first instance, and shares them out to
the markets of Italy and France, as a profit can he
obtained for them.

(From the ConstitutionneL)

CORFU, Nov. 18.—Ibrahim Paella having, during
his last expedition, burned every thing that was left

like a house, in the west of the PelOponessus, cut
down all the fruit trees, and murdered the women
and children that fell into his hands, has returned to
Modon. A part of the Arabs he had left in garrison
at Patras, have succeeded in escaping,' and rejoined
him on the 341 of this month. Since the destruc-
tion of the Turco-Egyptian fleet, Ibrahim Pacha has
changed his character, which has become milder.

We have just received letters from the Island of
Egina, which informs us, that the blockade of the island
of Eubxa is strictly kept up ; the troops that had
been landed there occupied all the Northern part to
the foot of Mount Delphi. Lately a battle was fought
with the Turks that Omer Pacha had sent to im-
pede the march of the Greeks upon Negropont; the
capital of the Island; the latter came off conquerors.
The enemy has suffered much, and lost a great num-
ber of men. G. Caratasso, junior, who was going

to Patradjek, to rejoin General Panourias,
Taretza, a village almost in ruins, situated upon
Mount Goura, when be was informed that about a
hundred Delis (the choice cavalry of the Turks)
•,vere descending the hill; the young Cara-
lasso, who was accompanied by his bravest
Palicari, without losing time, placed them in
ambush: the Turks, not expecting any thing
of the kind, fell into the trap. These Delis guarded
a large sum of money, which the Sultan had sent
to Redscbid Pacha, Seraakier of Rumelia, to pay his
Albanians. The Turks fought bravely, buNin the
end they were all slain, and the money remained in
the hands of the Greeks. After this affair Cara-
tasso abandoned his project of joining Panourias, and
returned to Volos. He has sworn upon the Gospels
to employ this money in nothing else but in the
preparations of an expedition against Olympus, his
native country, and to land with his brave country-
men on the shore of Platamene.

The Albanians, getting no pay, have left,the camp
of Redschid Pacha, who at present is at Thebes, in
Bceo, and as all the ports of Western Greece are
occupied by the Greeks, they have taken the road
to Thessaly, in order to cross the Pindus and return
home. With respect to the Seraskier, to repair the
loss of money he has sustained, he has just ordered
that all who inhabit the territory under his dominion

(without specifying the Christians, and yet there is
not a Turk in Greece Proper), should bring him

willingly the gold and silver they may possess, tin-
der ptun of losing their heads; but the Greeks have
sent what money they had to Calomos and Syra, to
purchase gunpowder and lead.

BRUSSELS PAPERS.
HAGUE, DEC. 6. AND 7.—The Second Chamber
of the States-General had before it the discussion of
two projects of law, the one fixing the repartition of
the total cf the land•lax among the provinces of the
kingdom, the other creating a fund for the relief of
the provinces which are rated too high. The first
having been adopted by a majority of 69 votes to
15, the Chamber proceeded to deliberate on the se-
cond, and the debate being extended to a great
length could not be concluded on the 6th. On the
7th several members having spoken for and against,
the Minister of Finance rose to defend the project,
after which the question was put, when there ap-
peared to be4s in favour, and 46 against, so that it
was lost by a majority of one vote. The President
then said, " The Second Chamber of States-Gene-
ral will express to the King its gratitude for the
zeal with which he attends to the interest of the
kingdom, and will respectfully request to take the
proposal into further consideration."
BRUSSELS, DEC. 10.—Two Russian couriers
passed through Berlin on the 3d, on their way from
Petersburgh to Paris.
_ A British Cabinet Messenger passed through
this city yesterday from London, with despatches
for Vienna; and this morning an Austrian Cabinet
Messenger arrived from Vienna, with despatches for
London.

DECEMBER 11.—The Hague Journal of the 10th
says, " The ship Potomac has brought accounts frora
Java to the 22d of August, which announce that
the rebel chief Dipo Negoro has entered into nego-
ciations, that hostilities had already been provi-
sionally suspended, and that great hopes were en-
tertained that this war would be soon terminated.
The negotiations were commenced by M. Stayers,
,t planter settled in the country of the Princes, and
the Commissioner-General intended to go thither
himself, in order to accelerate the conclusion of a
favourable convention._

CORFU, Nov. H.—lbrahim Pacha is on the march

LONDON.
FRIDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 14, 1827.

At the Council held yesterday his MAJESTY
was pleased to sign the Proclamation for _assem-
bling Parliament on the 22d of January. We
before stated that Parliament would meet on

that day ; but it is not expected that much of
the important business which is to occupy its
attention will be brought forward until those of

its MAJESTY'S Ministers who have vacated
heir seats by the acceptance of new offices are

re-elected.

The Paris Papers of Tuesday, and the Gazette
de France dated Wednesday morning, reached
us last night. They contain intelligence from
Constantinople, copied from the Augsburgh
Gazette, but of no later date than that which
had before arrived. The substance of all the
accounts is the same, namely, that up to the
11th no symptom of submission had appeared,
and that various preparations were making, which
indicated a determination on the part of the
SULTAN to go to war. A park of artillery of
200 cannon had been sent to Silistria, and above
600 waggons of ammunition had taken the road
to Rudshuck. The Grand Chamberlain' to the
SULTAN had gone to Adrianople to prepare a
residence for the SULTAN, who was to repair to
the Army as soon as the Ambassadors had left
Constantinople. The embargo was strictly en-
forced, and two Russian vessels which attempted
to escape were stopped, and placed under rigorous
surveillance. On the Russian Minister com-
plaining' of this proceeding, the REIS EFFENDI
declared he could not alter a resolution taken
by the Divan, and that these were but trifling
reprisals for the insult offered to the Ottoman
Flag. M. RIBEAUPIERRE was only restrained
from taking his departure immediately by the re-
presentations of his colleagues. When affairs
had reached this crisis, it is improbable that the
PORTE would be induced to listen to reason—
and it must be expected that unless the
Ambassadors gave up some of the demands
they were instructed to make, which of
course is altogether unlikely, all communica,
tions between them and the Turkish Go-
vernment would shortly cease. The report that
,
they actually quitted Constantinople on the 15th,
probably
that we
to the expectation that,
before
negociation would he at an
ot dsay, its,
a originll
end. At present there is nothing to prove that

hat expectation was not well founded ; while
ihere is likewise nothing to prove positively that
it had been realized.

The Gazette de France publishes a very ex-
traordinary- document—being a despatch, said to
have been addressed, on the 22d September last,
by Prince METTERNICH, to Baron OTTEN-
FELS, the Austrian Internuncio at the PORTE,
blaming him in strong terms for his conduct in
refusing his co-operation with the Ministers of
the Allied Powers, and directing him, in order
to repair his mistake, to make a personal apology
to those Ministers, and declare to them that,
henceforward, he will use every means in his
power to induce the PoRTE to submit to the
general wishes of the European Powers.
Baron OTTENFELS, however, when thus offi-
cially blamed for his conduct, would no doubt
have received private explanations of the cause
of the change in the policy of the Cabinet of
Vienna, which had rendered it necessary to dis-
avow its former proceedings, by the flimsy pre-
text of its instructions having been misunder-
stood. That this was nothing but a pretext,
is proved by the circumstance of his Majesty
the Emperor of AUSTRIA having, on the 30th
November, advanced Baron OTTENFELS to the
dignity of Privy Councillor, and conferred the
Order of St. Leopold upon M. VON HUZAR,
the Interpreter at Constantinople.

The Journal des Debats asserts that Austrian
Agents have made large purchases of fodder and
other articles, which are sent off towards the
fortresses on the Danube, and that troops will
soon follow.

The French Papers still indulge in violent at-
tacks against the Ministry, but M. VILLELE
shows no more disposition to submit to the
wishes of the people than the SULTAN does to
those of the Allied Powers.

Extracts of these Papers are given in another
column, and we subjoin the price of the Funds
in Paris on Tuesday.

FRENCH FUNDB.—Five per Cents. 101 f. 25c. ; Three

We have inserted in a preceding column ex-
tracts from the Brussels Papers to the 12th inst.
which arrived last night. An article from Corfu,
dated Nov. I I, mentions that IBRAHIM PACHA
was on the march to Patras with all his forces,
leaving only weak garrisons in Modou, Coron,
and Navarin. It was supposed that he would
join REDSCHID PACHA In Livadia.

The Allgerneine Zeitung of the '7th inst. has
been received this morning. It contains no news
from Constantinople, and' the following para-
graph is the only one worth copying ;

TRIESTE, DEC. 1.

A captain of a ahip who has arrived here to-day, in nine
days from Zante, says that, during his stay there he did
not see a single ship of war of any nation. The Greek
steam-boat, with five or six other Greek vessels, is said to
be still in the Gulf of Lepanto, and Ibrahim Pacha to be
engaged at Navarin in repairing the wrecks of his fleet.

Dutch Papers have also cotne to hand this
morning, of which the following are extracts
,
VIENNA, Nov. 26.
riltest w TArrrint.
No where, probably, has the extraordinary catastrophe
at Navarin made so deep an impression, and excited such
interest, as here; the Court and the Ministry, as well as
all classes of people, were equally affected by it. Those
who are susceptible of grief and gratitude will not wonder
at this feeling. In the most dangerous periods of the do-
minion of Beonaparte, every means of temptation was, in
vain, employed to induce the Divan to act in a hostile man-
ner towards Austria. No State could snore punctually act
as' a good neighbour towards another, than the Porte has
done for above a generation towards us. Amidst all the
changes of Government, under Selim Mustapha and Mali-
mond, the Ottoman Ministry remained consistent, and
acted on the same system. This experience, acquired in a
time of trial, could not but have an influence on the heart
of our august Monarch. In private life, as in the im-
portant concerns of the State, his great mind estimates
integrity and truth above every thing; it is thefefore easy
to conceive the feelings which the news of the battle of
Navarin could not fail to excite. On the 6th inst., in the
forenoon, the Prince Chancellor. received an express from
Constantinople, with an autograph letter of the Grand
Vizir, in which the intervention of Austria was requested.
At noon accounts were received from Trieste, which an-
nounced the burning of the Turkish fleet at Navarin. The
Prince Chancellor is said to have immediately caused it to be
intimated to the Ambassadors of the three Courts at Vienna,
that this event would probably frustrate all attempts at me-
diation at Constantinople. We are ignorant what farther
resolutions havebeen tis en in consequence of the subsequent
accounts from Constantinople, which scarcely leave a doubt
of the intentions of the Porte ; only it is affirmed that our
Ministry has sent a note to London, containing.a declara-
tion that, whatever may happen, Austria will remain neu-
tral. The majority of the inhabitants of Europe look on
the affairs of Greece as a matter of philanthropy; we too
are not destitute of philanthropy, but justice, enlightened
policy, and sacred obligations, to a neighbouring. nation,
whose fidelity we have experienced both in prosperity and
adversity, mark the path which we have to follow.

HAGUE, IM 9.
Major-General Verveer Las returned from his diplomatic
mission to the South American States.
The news which we gave of the conclusion of an armis-
tice with Diepo Nogoro, is confirmed by reports brought to
the Government by the Potomac, which left Jitva on the
25th August. Letters received at Amsterdam Say, that
the armistice had been officially ratified by, the C.mnis-
sioner-General, and that there was every reason to hope
that the war would be terminated in this manner.

The accounts from Odissa, via Paris, this

morning, say that they are not so sanguine -of
Peace with the PORTE as the accounts from
Vienna state. From the former City they w
M. RIBEAUPIERRE ja daily expected at Odessa,
where apartments are already provided;it

Orders have likewise been received at Sebastopol
'to get ready fifteen ships of war, which are to
act in concert with the Russian Army, and the
plan of the campaign is already spoken or, which
General WORONZOW has formed. This Gene-
ral, it is said, after having occupied the Princi-
palities and blockaded the fortresses in the
Danube, will march into the heart of the Otto-
man Empire with his principal corps; Hhile
at the same time a detachment will proceed
on the side of the Black Sea, covering his left
wing, and obtain possession of the sea ports,
to secure the provisioning of the army.
