FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

FRENCH PAPERS.

(From the Gazette de France dated Thursday, Oct. 25.)
PVYCERDA, OCT. 16.—Vague and absurd reports
have for some days caused much confusion in this
town, by inducing many persons to remove. But
people's minds are evidently more calm, and the
greatest tranquillity prevails in the environs for ten
leagues round. We have just learned the arrival of
fresh regiments. The drivers of Cerdagne, and other
travellers from Madrid, have met with many on the
load; and the number of his Maje3ty's troops des-
tined for Catalonia is estimated at 30,000 men. A
traveller coming from Figueiras has informed us that
he met at intervals on the road, bands of Agraviados,
of 30 or 40 men each, who were going to lay down
their arms, and make their submission to the King.
Don Domingo Caralp, a rich landowner of Mu-
taro, who was governor of Vich for the insurgents,
arrived the day before yesterday at Cabanasse, near
Mont Louis, accompanied by an ancient officer of
cavalry and a priest. They had reached this French
village by way of the mountains of Noury. They
solic►ted permission to enter France, and proceed to
Perpignan, where the family of M. Caralp has long
resided.—Eclio du Midi.
TRIESTE, OCT. 12.—While the Greeks are every
where announcing the taking of Vassiladi and
Anatolico by Lord Cochrane, accounts of the 3d of
October affirm that this report is without founda-
tion, anti that Cochrane, after having forced with hie
division the entrance of the Gulf of Lepanto, to
communicate with General Church, who guards the
Isthmus of Corinth, has again quitted the vicinity of
Alissolonghi. It is presumed that the attack on the
points near that place was a feint to enable him to
pass during that t►me the Little Dardanelles at
Lepanto.*
FRANKFORT, OCT. 20.—We learn from Stettin
that the Mentor, a vest el belonging to the Royal
Society of Maritime Commerce, sailed from that
port on the 21st of September, bound to Jamaica,
with a cargo of Silesia linen, flour, &c. This is the
first Prussian vessel that has sailed directly to that
island with the view to lead the way to a corn-

mercial intercourse.
(From the Journal des Debats.)
CONITANTINOPLE, SEPT. 15.—The Kiaja Bey,
or Minister of the Interior, declared to the drago-
mans of the Ambassadors,on the 18th of September,
that the Porte insisted on the entire submission of
the rebels ; that it would display its udnal modera-
tion towards the allied Powers, so long as they
abstained from violence; but that it would return
blow for blow and shot for shot, if events should re-
quire it. This heroic determination was singularly
shaken on the next day by the appearance of two
Russian htigs of war, which had escaped the vigi-
lance of the fort of Fanaraky, in the port of Con-
stantinople. The Porte sent to M. de Ribeaupierre
to inquire the object of their arrival. M. de Ri-.
beaupierre replied that these two vessels were not
large enough to inspire the Porte with any fear;
that they did not even bear the flag of the Imperial
marine ; that the Porte had not any right to send
them away ; and that if a greater number of vessels
cf war should appear before Constantinople, the
Porte would have occasioned their appearance by
the menaces which it lied directed against himself,
his family, and the other subjects of Russia. T!,e
Porte appeared astounded at this reply. The Grand
Seignor gave orders to stir no more in the matter.
English and French vessels are daily expected here
to take on board the families of the Ambassadors.
The Pacha of Egypt has dismieged Major
Cradock, without yielding at all to his entreaties-.
26.—There has been nothing new since
the 15th. The alarms of the Franks, on the de-
parture of the Foreign Ambassadors, are a little
dimeished, though some vessels of war from Odessa
are at anchor here to take away the family of M.
Ribeaupierre in case of emergency. It is said that
the Sultan has proposed to the Divan a plan,where-
by the re-establishment of peace in Greece is to be
grantcd 1.43 a boon to ;to inhahitnnts.
TRIESTE, OCT. 12.—According to letters frArn
Corfu, the Eyptian fleet has quitted Navarino and
sailed to the south, without meeting any resistance
from the combined squadrons. It is presumed that
this was done in consequence of a convention made
between Codrington and Ibrahim Paella, which sti-
pulated the free return of the fleet. TM:re are many
versions abroad on this point ; but it appears that
the Egyptian fleet had positively quitted Navarino
before the 28th of September.
(From the Quotidienne.)
PARIS, OCT. 23.—We have before us a letter
written from Caraccas in the latter part of August,
by a person worthy of credit. The following is an
extract :
" The affairs of this country are in a state to
cause a fear of an approaching explosion. All the
neighbourhood is tilled with armed bands, who
shout " the King for ever." The fermentation is
great, and, as the misery is immense, an insurrection
may be expected.
" I have just received a letter from La Guayra,
where 1 am informed that two Spanish privateers,
who bad lately presented themselves before the port,
had captured a richly laden vessel. It is feared that
these privateers are merely the precursors of more
considerable naval force, which they expect to see
every day.

(From the Consiltutionnel.)
BARCELONA, OCT. 15.—The day before yesterday
a rencontre took place in the mountains, near Olot ;
several of the insurgents lost their lives in it; twelve
or thirteen have been made prisoners, and conducted

too Girona.
On Saturday, el Carajal directed himself upon
Calaf. lie caused to be conducted before him eight
of the richest inhabitants, and gave them four hours
to prepare for death, if in that time they did not pay
a heavy contribution of some thousands of dollars.
An extraordinary courier has arrived this morning
from Tarragona, addressed to the Viscount de Rei-
set, Lieutenant-General commanding the division.—
The intelligence lie brings is not yet known.
PERPIGNAN, OCT. 17.—Seven individuals who
were taken at the affair of St. Columba were yester-
day shot at Girona ;an eighth was flogged. The
two trumpeters and the two officers, who were sent
by Ballaster to summon Girona to surrender, and
who were arrested by the Governor's order, have
;;lso been flogged. They are to be sent to the galleys.
A column of 200 rebels, flying for refuge to our
territory, entered it yesterday by the Coll d'Ares.

tains, has forced them to this movement. It would
not be surprising if some other column has taken ve-
by the valley of Ribes, and the

Coll de Toses ; it is these two passages which seem
pointed out by the nature of the country to the
troops which occupy Olot andd Rippall.
R The everend Father Viaes, of the Sovereign
Junta of Nanresa, who has taken refuge in Perpig-
nan, has applied to the Bishop of this Diocese to
obtain the /ice/ for saying rise; his Lordship
answered him, that when the Reverend Father could
prove to him that he had obtained the King's par-
don, he should be happy to grant him the permission
he requested.
WIADRID, OCT. 18.—(Extract of a private letter.)
--:The courier who was despatched by the King,
and arrived yesterday morning at six o'clock at the
-Escurial, and at eleven o'clock here, brought like-
-wise to the Infanta Don Francisco the order to ac-
company her Majesty the Queen on her journey to
Saragossa, for which place she will depart on the
z.thinstant. The Prince will return to Madrid,
.whither all the other Members of the Royal Family
will have returned.
It is believed that his Majesty will not return to
his capital before the end of March or the beginning
of April, 1828.
It appears that M. de Villaville, the Co'onel of
the Royalist Volunteers of Madrid, is going to be
