phraseology, take an assignment to the debt, and
by paying the money, invest themselves with the

" As a result of the pacific intelligence from
the East, I understand that orders either arc
already, or are about to bc, despatched to the
troops in the Morea, to return immediately to
France.

" It is officially announced that the Count de
Beugnot has been appointed to the Presidency
of the Department of Commerce and the Colo-
nies. His opinions and principles have hitherto
been so extremely flexible, that it would be diffi-
cult at this moment to say what they are, if we
were not entitled to form some judgment on the
subject from the well-known tenets of the-poli-
tical party with whom he is now associated. In
1815 M. de Beugnot voted on the minority, and
was then the declared adversary of M. de Bour-
donnaye. Since that period he has traversed all
the sections and shades of party, which separate
the left from the extreme right. During the
Ministry of M. Decazes he sat in the centre, and
supported all the projects of the Minister. Since
1820 M. de Beugnot has ceased to belong to
the Chamber of Deputies, and the public had
almost forgotten him. It is said that he had
been promised a Peerage by M. Decazes, and
that the promise has been renewed by every suc-
cessive Ministry, without being fulfilled ; thus
placing him in rather an awkward position with
regard to those on whom the promotion de-
pended. He is understood to be intimately con-
nected with M. de Villele, and some even go so
far as to say that the secret influence of the ex-
Minister, and his own ulterior designs, have
brought about the present appointment.
" I observe it stated, in private letters from
Trieste, of the 25th of September, that the
communications between London, Malta, and
Corfu, had, for three weeks before, been ex-
treinely twimated, and that three regiments were
expected from England to strengthen the British
force in the lonian Islands, although the garri-
sons of Corfu, Cephalonia, and St. Maura, al-
ready amounted to 10,000 men.
" The French frigate Galatea has lately ar-
rived at Toulon from Navarin, having touched
on the passage at Alexandria. The Pacha of
Egypt is said to have paid a visit to the Com-
mander of the Galatea, and to have remained
several hours on board, making rich presents in
arms and refreshments to the Officers and crew.
This is believed to be the first occasion which
the Pacha has ever taken to see the interior of a
European ship of war."

New York Papers have been received to the
16th September, and other Papers from various
parts of America, the principal contents of
which relate to the descent of the Havannah ex-
pedition near Tampico, but there was every ex-
pectation entertained that it would be completely
defeated. The following was posted at the
North and South American Coffee-house this
morning :

Extract of a letter dated Vera Cruz, Aug. 15 :
The Spanish Expedition, about 3,500 men,
effected a landing on the 28th ult. at Cabo Roxo,
near Tampico. Is hich latter place they hare since
taken. 1 his keeps us in suspense as to our opera-
tions, not that we fear any unfortunate result, for
the Spanish force is very trifling, and as this Go-
vernment is concentrating far superior forces, they
must soon either re-embark or deliver up their arms.
But in the mean time business is naturally affected,
although we have no doubt of its revival, after the
expulsion of the Spaniards, as this success must in-
spire the Mexican and satisfy the Spanish Govern-
ment of the folly of sending their paltry expeditions
against this country. General Santa Anna has the
command of the forces operating against the
Spaniards, and we anticipate much from his enter-
prise and experience.

Previous to leaving this with the expedition he
was under the necessity of enforcing a loan, which
he did from the native and Spanish met chants, but
exempted all the foreigners, whom he always endea-
vours to favour and protect.

We learn from Denmark that Foreign Porce-
lain is now admitted into that kingdom on pay-
ment of 30 per cent. duty on the value.

Our City Correspondent says that there will
be a large increase in the Customs' department
of the Quarter's Revenue, in consequence of the
high duties on Corn ; but there will be a defi-
ciency in the Excise and Stamps.

Canada Papers have been received to the 10th
ult. inclusive. The weather at Quebec had be-
come very cold, but the outstanding crops had
not sustained any serious injury, and both there
and in Upper Canada the harvest had been
highly satisfactory. Sir J. KEMPT, with his
suite, had arrived at Drummondville on Satur-
day. His Excellency's tour through the Eastern
Townships had excited much interest,

By the Corn Averages this morning, we find
that the duty on Foreign Wheat has again ad-
vanced Is. per qr. The duty on Foreign Wheat
is now at 235. Bd. per qr.

The weather continues unsettled. Frosty
