PARIS, Nov. 6.—Letters from Vienna say, " The
Chevalier de Tatischeff, Russian Ambassador to the
Court of Vienna, has obtained leave of absence, and
is going to Russia. The departure of this Minister,
during the negotiations relative to the affairs of the
East, has caused much sensation here. M. de
Macerndorff remains as Charge d'Affaires during
his absence."
The Countess Dowager de Solages has just died,
at her seat of La Verrerie de -Blaze, near Albi, at the
age of 103 years, 9 months, and 21 days. At the
age of 103 sLe did the honours of her house in the
most obliging manner, and enjoyed perfect health.
Yesterday, M. Savant was chosen Member of the
Academy of Sciences, in the room of M. Fresnel.
SMYRNA., SEPT. 16.-11-1. Questiaux, Consul-
" General of Austria, acting in the capacity of Charge
d'Affaires of the Consulate-General of Russia, has
called together the principal Russian merchants esta-
blished in this city, and has communicated to them a
letter from M. de Ribeaupierre, Russian Ambassador
at Constantinople, dated the 12th, of which the fol-
lowing is the substance :
" The refusal of the Porte to accept a mediation
has certainly rendered the relations of the Allied
Powers with the Sultan more difficult. These dif-
ficulties, however, are not of such a nature as to
give cause to the alarming reports that are in circu-
lation. The actual circumstances require, neverthe-
less, that the subjects. of his Majesty the Emperor,
established at Smyrna, should use a certain degree of
circumspection in their commercial undertakings."
Since the publication of this notice the accounts
' are ranch more satisfactory.—Oriental Spectator.
(From the Constitutionnel of Tuesday.)
PARIS, NOV. s.—For same days the Moniteur
has spared us those long columns, in which it dis-
cusses alone, and at ease, the principles of Representa-
tive Government. It has not resumed them since
its courteous attempts to convert the counter-oppo-
sition. The Evening Journal is not, however, so
courteous; and it almost represents the Constitu-
tionals of 1827 as the same men who signalized them-
selves in 1793. It remarks with peculiar bitterness
on those young wen who, despising the past, pity
the manners of their ancestors, and consider them-
selves called to regenerate the Old World. But all
its sophistical reasoning is only intended to reach the
counter-opposition, This matter is foreign to us,
and therefore we leave to those whom it concerns
to debate it. We will only say that we can scarcely
conceive how those who preach the sincerest Roy-
alism, cannot agree with those who call themselves
Royalists by preference.

It is a very strange thing, and hard to be explain-
ed, that the Russian squadron has so long delayed
joining the combined squadron in the Archipelago.
It is said, that it has mistaken its course in the Me-
diterranean) it did not know the way to the place
of meeting. These reasons are certainly very spe-
cious. We do not pretend to attribute to Russia any
views unfavourable to the sacred canse of the Greeks.
No doubt Russia wishes to do as much as the other
two Powers for the Greeks, and against the Turks;
but the question is, would they not be disposed to
do more, and have not the projects of Catherine
begun to spring
up in Muscovite heads ? If this
)vere. the ease, we can easily conceive that France
and England would use the more reserve in their
comitict? 'as Russia would be inclined to use the lc!s

Hamburgh Papers of the 3d inst., and Dutch
of the 6th, have been received this morning, but
they contain no political news :

BERLIN, OCT. 30.

The report that the Minister of the Interior, Baron Von
Schuckman, had had an apoplectic fit, and was iq great
danger, has happily no other foundation than a slight indis-
position which he has had for some weeks, but which has
not hindered him from exercising his functions.

STOCKHOLM, OCT.

Count Von Sandels, Governor of Norway, is expected
here at the end of this month, and will not return to Nor-
way for a considerable time; indeed it is uncertain whe-
ther he will return at all.

On the 9th of this month that part of the Cola Canal,
which has been completed this year, was opened for the
navigation ; it extends 'from Norsheim to Lake Asplang,
through it by Inofwetsborg, lafwershadt, to Wumeberga.
Of the line of this Canal there remain only 7,000 ells to
Soderkoping, and thence 10,000 to the Baltic, to he
completed.
Large sums have been subscribed here, especially by the
merchants, for the sufferers at Abo.

A Russian frigate has just arrived with the Russian
Ambassador, Count Von Sucbtelen, who returns after four
months' absence.

HAMEURGII, NOV. 2.

The English steam-boat Hylton Jolbffe, arrived here on
Wednesday, and will not again set out for London before
S unday.

By the Journal of St. Petersburgh, received
this morning, it appears that General PASKE-
WITSCH has captured the fortress of Sardar
Abad from the Persians, after a desperate siege.
The Persians, however, effected their escape with
the loss of a few stragglers, which the Russian
account magnifies into 500 killed, and '2OO made
prisoners. It is singular that we do not get
official accounts from Persia of the progress of
the war. At present the Russians have it all
their own way, and yet they do not seem to make
much of it. Their movements produce no de-
cisive result ; but tht capture of this fortress will
enable them to undertake the siege of Erivan

NEWS FROX GEORGIA.
A report from General Paskewitsch announces the '
talcing of the fortress of Sardar Abad by our troops.
The siege of this place began on the night of the 26th
of September. Hassan Khan having found means to get
into this place, under cover of the night, had taken, command
of the garrison, which was encouraged by his presence.
The trenches were opened in the night of the 28th, and
the same night a powerful battery was erected, which
was unmasked on the 30th, and the fire of which was so
effectual, that in a few moments a large square tower was
destroyed.
A half-parallel was made on the night of the 30th, and
a new battery erected within 100 sagenes of the ramparts
of the fortress. A constant and well-directed fire was
maintained during the whole of the Ist October, against
the breach, which in the evening was already 10 sagenes
in breadth. At the same time, four mortars (lid a great
deal of damage in the town, and excited such terror there,
that towards the evening the Sardar Hassan Khan sent a
flag of truce to make an armistice for three days, which
was refased, and the fire of the batteries was increased.
After receiving this answer, Hassan Khan took advan-
tage of the darkness of the night to seek his safety in flight.
The whole garrison, consisting of two battalions of
Sarbazians 'and of cavalry, making, in all, about
1,500 men also went out of the place on the north side.
' The Sarbazians disperse ti themselves in the Steppe, but our
infantry overtook part of them at the gates of the fortress,
into which the rest of our troops entered without obstacle
by the breach. Our cavalry had already been sent along
the principal routes, to cut off all communications. The
Cossacks, Hulans, and Dragoons, under Generals Benken-
dorff, Rosen, and Schabielsky, attacked the fugitives, of
whom 500 were killed and 200 made prisoners, and more
are brought in every moment.
Our victorious troops took in this fortress 13 pieces of
brass cannon, 11,000 chetwerts of wheat, a considerable
quantity of powder, as well as other ammunition and pro-
visions.

ST. PETERSEITRCH, OCT. 22•

The George IV. steam boat arrived at Cronstadt yes-
terday. It brings London papers of the 9th. It will
leave Cronstadt to return to London on the 29th inst.
Arrived at Cronstadt, to the 21st of October, 1,206
ships. Sailed from thence 1,108.

We copy the following article from the Times
of this morning :

The regular Constantinople mail arrived this morning
with letters of the 10th ult., being the quickest post that
has occurred for a long time past, from 30 to sa days being
usually occupied by the journey.' The commercial letters
contain no news, and some of the writers evince So little
interest in the discussions going on with the Porte, that
they do not even advert to the subject. By an express via
advices of the 15th, being five days later,
hPaasr•eis'belwemnreevceeri'ved from Constantinople, which communi-
cate intelligence of some importance. In these accounts it is
stated that the Austrian Minister, on the 15th ult., addressed
a note to the Reis Effendi, in which a demand was made that
the Porte should accede to the propositions of the Allied
Powers, so far as regarded the entering into an armistice
with the Greeks. This note was, accompanied by assur-
ances of the friendly disposition of Austria towards Tur-
key, that that Power stood apart from the Allies in all
that regarded the Greek treaty,—and that she was giving
the best proof of consideration to his interests in urging
the Sultan to take the present step. No reply to this
note had been sent at the time the courier left Constanti-
nople, but the act itself was held decisive of the disposi-
tion of Austria to act in concert with the Allies, at least
for all purposes of peace and conciliation, though it is ex-
pected that when the final negotiation is entered on, she
will prove her friendship for the Turks in obtaining terms
as little favourable for the Greeks as possible. Nothing is
said of the negotiations going on with the Ambassadors of
the Allied Powers ; indeed, the note of the Austrian Mi-
nister proves that they had taken no definite shape as re-
gards the Greek treaty. The Sultan had addressed a
communication, written with his own hand, to Ibrahim
Paella, as was supposed on the subject of the armistice, but
nothing had transpired respecting its contents. A repre-
sentation having been made to the French and English
Ambassadors by the Reis Effendi, stating the difficulty of
obtaining subsistence for the troops and sailors, who, by
the effect of the armistice, were shat up in Navarino and
other ports, a friendly arrangement was immediately en-
tered into to obviate this inconvenience. Two ports in the
Aforea, Patras and Soda, were fixed on as depots to which
provisions for the subsistence of the troops might he con-
veyed without molestation, and Turkish transports were to
leave the Dardanelles regularly with supplies, alternately

under convoy of a French and English slip of war. The
story of the cannonadi:ig riff Zante, which was magnified
into an attack on the Egyptian feet by the allied squadrons,
is explained to have arisen merely from an attack made on
some Turkish vessels by a Greek privateer ; and all the
alarming narratives, indeed, which have come to us throu;:h
the German papers, are pronounced to be mere fabrications.

The following is copied from the Liverpool
Post Letter, dated Nov. 7, received at the North
and South American Coffee House this day :

The wind during the whole of the day has been S.S.E.,
with very thick weather. A fishing-boat arrived this
morning, and reported the Pacific, from New York, to he
outiside ; two steam-boats were sent in search of her, end
have returned without being able to fall in with her. The
whole of the outward-bound, consisting of about 100 sail of
vessels, got under weigh, but owing to the haziness of the
weather, it is not probable they will proceed further than
the rocks.

It is stated that in the confusion which atten-
ded the operation of driving back the
Egyptian fleet to Navarino, when attempting
to sail to Patras, that one of the transports
escaped to Alissolonglii. Upon this being
known to the British Admiral, he immediately
manned one of the largest boats, and proceeded
to the latter place, cutting her cables, and forc-
ing the transport to sea, thus showing that he
was in earnest.

Extract of a Letter from Lloyd's agents,
dated Zante, Oct. 2 :
Piracies in this neighbourhood are committed to a great
extent. Vessels are actually plundered within sight of the
Island, and there is seldom a ship of war of any kind to
protect the trade. Three days ago a schooner was plun-
dered, five or six miles to the southward, of specie to a con-
siderable amount, and an Austrian vessel was recently
plundered of 10,000 dollars on her way from Leghoi;
even off Cape Spartavento vessels have been plundered. In
fact, piratical vessels now swarm in every direction.

His MAJESTY has, we understand, been

pleased, in the most gracious manner, to confer
the Government of Portsmouth, vacant by the
appointment of Sir Wm. KEPPEL to the Go-
vernment of Guernsey, upon his Royal high-
ness th• Duke of GLOUCESTER. His Royal
Highness was received by the KING on this
occasion in the kindest manner.
Sir HERBERT TAYLOR IS to be Lieutenant-
General of the Ordnance, vice Sir Wm. CLIN-
TON, who is to have the Government o f the
Mauritius.

His- Royal Highness Dow MIGUEL is to
occupy the Earl of DUDLEY'S house, in Arling-
ton-street, during his stay in London.

Alderman LUCAS commenced his Mayoralty
this day. The Procession was unusually si
len-
did, from which the citizens augur well of the
coming glories of their 'hospitable Chief Ma-
gistrate, who bears an excellent private charac-
ter ; and though his public career has not
been ostentatious, yet he is highly respected
as a plain but strong-minded man, with as
much loyalty and public spirit as those who
make twice the display without having half the
pretension. He is altogether a " good citizen,"
and promises, now, that he has attained to the
first honours of the Corporation, to maintain the
rights and privileges of the city of London,
while he supports the dignity of the Magisterial
Chair, by a wise and liberal administration.
We wish him success ; and hope that when

lie resigns office, he will have the proud satis-
faction of having Merited the thanks of his
fellow-citizens, by the consciousness of having
done all in his power for the advancement of the
public good.

We have occasionally favoured our readers
with extracts from Mr. CiESAR MOREAU's
curious and very interesting work on Ireland,
and we cannot do better than to call t heir
attention to the original, which ref'ects
great credit upon the unwearied assiduity—ex-
tensive research—and public spirit of Mr. Mo-
REAU, whose genius rises superior to the many
obstacles almost inseparable from the produc-
tion of a work of this nature. The classifica-
tion of such a mass of documents as he must
have consulted is highly serviceable, by making
the information more accessible, and consequently
more useful. In looking over the pages of this
laborious work we are struck with the patience,
anxiety, and time, which it must have cost the
author in its production. We recommend the
work as the only authentic record of the past and
present state of Ireland which has hitherto ap-
peared.

CITY, Tw.nLyß o' aver,

The Lord Mayor's procession has attracted the
attention of nearly all the Citizens this morning,
and although the weather has been very unpropitious
to the exhibition, still the worthy new Lord Mayor
was greeted with hearty cheers on his proceeding to
take water, which is only a small tribute to the
high respectability of the head Magistrate of the
first city in the world. Consols opened at 874 _a. for
account, the chief business being confined to the
House; they have since been 871 and at one time
