FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

(From the Gazette de France of Tuesday.)
PARIS, SEPT. 14. Letters from Constantinople,
of the 20th, add nothing to the news of the 17th.
Tranquillity prevails in the city.
It is believed that General Diebitsch has already
occupied the Dardanelles, and that he is endeavour-
ing to make himself master of all the points of com-
munication, by which the capital is supplied with
provisions.

Admiral Malcolm's squadron had quitted Ipsara,
and was at Vour!a on the 25th.

It was firmly believed that the negotiations for
peace will have a happy result.
We were led into a mistake yesterday by our
correspondent respecting the contents of the Aus-
trian Observer of the sth. The following is the
article as we read it this morning :
" According to the news from Constantinople of
the 17th of August, the Porte, adhering to the prin-
cipal articles of the treaty of the 6th of July, and
having been induced to this step by the united re-
presentations of the Ambassadors of England,
France, Austria, and Prussia, has given orders to
the Grand Vizier to send Plenipotentiaries to Ge-
neral Diebitsch, for the purpose of opening without
delay negotiations for peace."
This news, therefore, is precisely the same as that
we gave a week ago.
The Moniteur of this date contains a report to
the King, from M. de Lahourdonnaye, in which be
says that the retrenchments made in his budget for
the )ear 1830 make it necessary to think of some
means of effecting a saving, and with this view he
proposes to suppress the four inspectors of the book
trade at Parr, who receive each a salary of 5,000
francs a-year. This report is followed by an ordi-
nance of the King, suppressing those inspectors,
and transfetring to the commissioners of police their
functions.

(From the Journal des Debuts.)

PARIS, SEPT. 13.—The libellers in the pay of
Ministers have contradicted by abuse, but with
evident embarrassment, the little description we
gave of a scene in the interior of the Cabinet. The
description, which is to-day repeated by many of the
journals, is unfortunately incomplete ; but the truth
of all the circumstances related is evident even by
the weakness of the official contradiction. " How
do you know it ?" we are asked," None of the six
Ministers would have told it you." Poor Quotidi
cane, it does not even know the number of its
masters. God be praised, we have (even Ministers,
and disappointment, anger, and the indiscretion of
offended self-love multiply babbling echoes around
them. A writer of the last age said well of love
affairs—" It is possible that persons may not wish
to believe in the thing ; but it is impossible that
they should not know it." It is the same with
Ministerial divisions: when they exist, they become
known : the same causes which divide them pro-
duce the infidelity which publishes.
However, this division is honourable to common

sense. It proves that notwithstanding the seduction
of a :alse position, an honest man possessing sense,
can perceive the abyss to which it is being led, and
draw back. " No," cry the valets, " the Ministry is
united,—very united." But have we not at all

times had our ears filled with this language, and
usually with more vehemence when the schism was
most evident ? On the evening of the day when the
Duke of Doudeauville nobly retired from a fatal Minis-
try which was unworthy of his support, was not the
cry that the ministry was united,—very united? Some
months after, was not .the concord proclaimed every
morning, whilst Count de Chabrol arranged every
thing for the interment of his colleagues, made the
necessary arrangements, wrote letters, and prepared
to go into mourning previously to seating himself at
the banquet of their successors.
Yes, you are divided; for it is impossible to find
six other men so obstinate, so violent, and so hostile
to the laws as you are. Yes, you are divided ! for,
to be just, you have not all gone over to the enemy
on the field of battle. You are divided by the na-
tural antipathies of violence and timidity of barbarous
Machiavelism, and rash and imprudent candour.
It is said, " The secret is one which cannot be
known." Are other proofs and other circumstances
wanting ? Behold them Cause them to be con-
tradicted. Did not one of you, on leaving the
Council, say, in a tone- of disappointment, " It is
impossible ! This man is even more unsociable
than I thought him ?" Did not the person thus
designated exclaim at the same meeting, " Away
with your Jesuits; I prefer gens d'arrnes rather than
Jesuits to restrain the Liberals ?" Mark these
words well. Behold the philosophy and grand po-
licy of the Minister. Here is a man who supposes
himself to be cleverer than his pious colleague, and
speaks of him as weak minded.

But France, if it does not like religious hypo-
crisy, likes still less, if it be possible, a Lystem of
rude and brutal force. Do not imagine that it will
suffice to humour the repugnance of the country to
the Jesuits, and that it will suffer every thing pa-
tiently on that account. That is a strange illusion.
Since the spirit of the charter has penetrated into all
souls, what is most hateful and most dreaded is ar-
bitrary proceedings--is the spirit of re-action and
violence—is absolute power—is the Labourdonnaye
Government. The Jesuits themselves are not sus-
pected in France for their name only, or their faith,
but because they show themselves to be the active
auxiliaries of absolute domination. Let this system
cease to menace us,—let it become impossible, by
the strengthening of institutions and the selection of
men,—let public liberty no longer be attacked, and
it will give us little uneasiness to see the Jesuits in
France.

Whilst insisting on the division of the Ministry
because it is true, we draw no immediate conse-
quence from it. We know how resigned men
usually are to remain in power, even thwarted
and oppressed. We know the difficulty of get-
ting quit of a bad engagement, and of daring all
that would be necessary. Besides, we know,, above
all, the natural tendency of violence-in certain situs-
tiouf. Often the more it is in the wroncthe more

FRENCH PAPERS.
(From the Messager des ChamLres, Sept. 14.)
(sECol<*b 2DITIox.)
PARIS, SEPT. 14.
FRONTIERS OF SERVIA, A UG. 30.—Letters written
from Sophia, by persons worthy of credit, inform us
that the Russian army has left Adrianople ; that one
column has taken the road to Fery, near the Gulf of
Enos, but that the main body of the army marches
towards Constantinople. It is supposed that the

troops sent on the road to Fery are destined to form
a junction with the Russian squadron stationed off
the Dardanelles. This manoeuvre greatly alarms the
inhabitants of Sophia. It is certain that the appear-
ance of the Russian troops on the coasts of the Ar-
chipelago greatly endangers the castles of the Dar-
danelles, and that a fermentation may manifest itself
in the capital, when the news of this twofold threat.
ening approach of the enemy shall be known there.
But if the people revolt, tire life of the Sultan,
on which the fate of the empire depends, will
undoubtedly be in the greatest danger. The ra-
pidity of the operations of General Diebitsch evi-
dently proves that he distrusts the good faith of the
Turkish Government, and that he intends to compel
it to make peace as soon as possible; for after all
the attempts at negotiation on the part of the Turks,
and the fatigue which his army has undergone, he
must himself be desirous to give the troops some
repose. The Turks of Belgrade are discouraged
since the last news received from the theatre of war,
while, on the other hand, the Greeks and the Ser-
vians can hardly conceal their joy. A merchant at
Constantinople bas just written to his factor here to
keep till further orders the goods which he had be
spoke. It is through the same channel that we
learn that the Prussian General Muffling had pre-
pared to quit the capital, after having delivered a
note to the Turkish Government. M. Von Zuylen,
the Ambassador of the Netherlands, is said to have
already left the capital.
