FRENCH PAPERS
(From the Journal du co,nstitnii-of March 31.)
PAsus, 31ARcll 30.—1 t appears ciTtain that negotia-
tions are going to he resumed at Constsntinople, on the
qurstions relative to the treaty of the. 6th July, but only
with Count Guilleminot and Mr. S. tanning, who will
etipolate in the name of Russia as*Ca of France and
England. Russia has consented to renounce its clamis_
to be directly represented at the Porte ; this is a cones..-;:
ton of great importance, which removes the chief difficulty
that hts been experienced in the exertions made for, tlic
pacification of Greece. The Divan, while it .sltewed itself
disposed to listen to the conciliatory proposals of _France
and England, had constantly refused to receive :a RuSalari
agent as a negociator in the affairs of ._dieeee.; and M:
Jaubert, who was sent by our Government .to. Con;lan-
uople, to smooth the way, met.,witk insurmountable re-
sietance on this point... The .undelfstanding of the Turks
was unable to comprehend how: the two-fold character •Of
Russia was to be explained, as an innalaCable enemy on the
Danube, and a pacific and disintered arbitrator en the
coast. of the Slorea,. or rather is acting two different parts
in the Mediterranean ;. as a nentral power when its fleet
was combined with' that of the Allies, and as a belligerent
when it blockaded; the;Dardanelles- • and when it attacked
the Egyptian vessels on'the coast 'of Candi& The Porte

By consenting not to appear in the negoeiations which are
about to be resumed; greatly facilitated' the re-
sult ; it would,- perbaps,ba;-e ; removed :all obstac'es by

We even think we perceive in this deference of Russia to
the wish of its Allies,' the'Commeneemeiat -of a pacific dis-
position in its own quarrel The complete execution of
the treaty of the 6th of July cannot fail to weaken its arms
in the North. Its Generals did not. speak like its nego-
eiators ; if the latter took care to separate the question of
the treaty.of Bucharest from that of the treaty of London,
the 6,rm"r avoided, in.their proclamations to the army,
making a'distinction which would have been no better un-
derstood by the Russian soldiers than by Councillors of the
Sultan. '- The Russians fought for the cause of religion,
for the deliverance of their martyred brethren, and not for
cold interests of Sovereignty, which did not at all effect
them. When Greece is once out of the question, their
entlitrsiasm will have no aliment.

ECARTE, OR THE SALONS OF PARIS.-
Notwithstanding the malicions-atta.ck on •this Work and
its Author, in a critical Journal, the causes of which will
shortly be divulged to the public, we are assured that it
has a directly opposite tendency to that which is imputed
to it, and that it will be read with intense interest; as it
is calculated, by an exposure of the artifices resorted to at
Paris, to put the unsuspecting visitor to that gay citynpon
his guard, and prevent his falling a victim to the snares
by which he is surrounded. Thus, it will be seen, that
the book takes a highly moral ground, and that the writer
is entitled to the warmest gratitude- of his fellow country.

STOCKHOLM, MAitcH-12.—1n the course of
last year one hundred and sixty-fonr thousand tons of corn.
were exported from Sweden. This is'a large quantity for a
kingilorn, which at no great distance of time was'obliged to
import annullry half n million of teals. This benefit, like
so Many others, We owe to the wise measures of the King.
The so: ks far cultivating and consolidating the quick-
sands in various provinces continue. In the northern part
of the province of Schonen 8,300 trees were planted last
year, and a great deal' of land sowed with corn. Lieu-
tenant Carhund has invented a new kind of boiler for
steam vessels, which requires only half the quantity of
fuel, affords as much steam, and is much smaller. The
King has ordered such boilers to be used in the steam-
bolt which is building for the navigation between Schonen
and'Pomerania.

• SERIOUS OCCURRENCE AT WANLOCK-
kiNADIizs.—On Saturday list, the 28th curt., a very
rrious occurrence took place at the above mines, in conic-
Pine-nee-Of a fire breaking out in one of the pits, and which,
*it for the activity and exertions of the overseer, would, it
:Firfeiared; have pioved fatal to many of the workmen. In
certain part of the mines there is a fire engine for draw-
d.eg water to a considerable depth, the rent of which is
carried up what is termed ashaft lined with wood. In this
nt the fire, it'appears, originated, and as the flames soon
*tight hold of the lining; the danger every moment became
lis are' and more aliiiming. The :workmen were imme-
-*tasty called to the spot,-and continued until Sunday morn-
"rig, using their utmost endeavours to check.the progress of
the fire. With this view both eyes of theshaft were co-
vered in, and the air totally excluded, which it was thought
mould have the effect of extinguishing it ; but on Sabbath
forenoon it was discovered to be burning with greater fury
than before, and about forty men were instantly sent down
to strengthen the covering of the shaft. They had scarcely
commenced operations, however, when they were all of a
sudden involved in a choke damp, under the influence of
which, but for the praiseworthy exertions of these who
were called to their assistance, they must all inevitablyhave
perished. When elle first intimation of the accident
reached the village it was truly distxsing to witness the
manner in which the women and` children of the place

ttlahed toward the scene of danger. The individuals, as
they were extricated from their perilous situation were
almost all insensible, but owing to the attention of Mr.
WATsON, surgeon, they were, with the exception of two
who suffered more severely, soon recovered. Too much
praise cannot be bestowed upon Mr. Joni: Baamwat.t.,
who, along with the other overseers, paid all the atten-
tion that humanity could dictate towards the sutierere.—
