FRENCH PAPERS.
(From the Gazette de France, dated July 14.)

PARIS, JULY 13.—The Austrian Observer an-
nounces, on the authority of letters from Turkey,
that the Pacha of Scutari has marched with 2,500
men for Uskub, (Skolia, on the road to Philopopolis),
where other troops will join him, to proceed in the
sequel to join the army of the Sultan.
The Nuremburg Correspondent pretends that the
Emperor Nicholas, during his stay at Berlin, made
the following declaration :—" Russia will not, in
any case, permit its subjects to be carried off and
sold as slaves by the Turks, as they have hitherto
been, neither will it consent to any restriction of its
navigation upon and to the Black Sea. With respect
to the expences of the war, an arrangement will
easily be made. If Russia, in consequence of its
claims on this head, should be forced to an acquisi-
tion of territory, it would endeavour to get rid of it
as soon as possible, because the mass of its dominions
is already so great, that an augmentation cannot be
desired for the true interest of the state."
The same Journal adds, that when that Monarch
received the news of the victory obtained by Gen.
Diebitsclt, he exclaimed," Now Europe will see that
I am a Irian of honour."

The Liberal Journals, relating the fact (which is
unhappily too true) of a popular tumult at Imola, in
the Roman states, have accompanied their narrative
with extraordinary circumstances, such as an excom-
munication pronounced against the inhabitants in a
mass, and the interdiction of the churches,
We believe that we may affirm upon respectable
authority, that all these details are fictitious, and do
not merit the slightest confidence.

The Marquis de BARBACENA had an inter-
view with the Earl of ABERDEEN yesterday, at the office
of the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs.
Their Royal Highnesses the Duke and
Duchess of CLARENCE, the Duchess of Saxe-WElmmt,

the young Prince WILLIAM, Princess LOUISE, and party,
honoured the National Repository, Charing-cross, with a
visit yesterday. The Duke appeared to be in perfect
health, though somewhat thinner than formerly. After
examining with great interest the various specimens, mo-
dels, &c. which now fill this extensive Gallery, his Royal
Highness left the Duchess, who remained nearly two hours
with her sister, explaining to the young Prince and pAin,
cess the various models of machinery. The silk,loom at
work attracted their particular attention; her Royal High-
ness ordered the whole of the warp then in the loom to be
finished for her own use. The specimens of fine Cash-
mere shawls, by Messrs. GIBB and MAcnosisr.n, of Edin-
burgh, and the machinery of the fine self-performing
pianoforte, by Messrs. ROLF and Son, of Cheapsitile, also
attracted their particular attention.
The Government receipts from the duties on
wheat are said to have been very large in the course of the
present week, as almost all persons who had wheat in bond
have declared, seeing that the duty must certainly be 3s.
higher when the averages are made up to-morrow, and that
it is more than probable that a further rise of 3s. will talie
place in the course of next week. Some calculations estimate
the duties paid since Thursday last at 100,0001,--s
CLARE ELECTION.—It appoara that the
writ has not yet issued for Clare, 1$() that the exact day of
the election is not known. It is understood that, at
Major MACNAMARA'S particular request, he will he the
proposer of Mr. O'CoNNELL, and that au honest substan-
tial 101. freeholder, who cannot speak English, will
second him in the Irish tongue, This is a mark of re-
spect due to this high-4nded and patriotic class.—

Ts-i DUKE OF WELLINGTON AND THE
New Lostoost BRIDGE.-The Duke of WELLINUTON
has since the operations for Cie erection of arches on
the east side of the new Loodou Bridge have been com-
menced, very frequently visited the works, and this morn-
ing again iriapected many of the lines of approaches. A
report was current a few days ago, that his Grace had
gone down to the Bridge incog. and not finding the work-
men engaged in pulling down houses to form the ap-
proaches, very sharply rebuked some of the membitiA
the Committee. This report which was cireulatecl aw,ong
those hostile to the new plan agrees ukspu between Go-
vernment and the Corpffation, 4 without the kiwi foun-
dation. The Duke, i,t 4 trne, has bm malty times to
see the the Act liar pnt into operation,
but he has expressed the utrilest satisfaction at the progress
that has been *citify made. The whole force in fact of
tha labourers has teen removed from the Bridge itself to
the aKroaches. Just before his Grace proceeded to,
Walmer Castle, he and Mr. JONES, the Chairmalii, tai.tAle
Bridge Committee, together with Mr. s.Tjt the En-
gineer, closely examined the :iielkl4uAC-01 of Pish-street-
hill, and his Grace Fcii'nted gut a very important altera-
tion 6pi .4 limnvil approaches from Leadenhall-

street, which will lead more directly to the main ap-
proaeli to the Bridge, and of course add considerably tq
the public conv4onee. This morning his Grace gait a
visit, without giving any notice of his int3-010tt1 14 114
usual practice, and remained for Rume 4me trhe usigh-
bourhood. His Grace, 14, co, t.olfsi, expressed his most
perfect satisfaction 01;1 operations. So rapidly indeed
is the wooi, c,f ming the approaches going forward,
under, we may say, the superintendance of his Graea, as
well as he Corporation, that the public will soon be gratified
with a full exhibition of the regress of the works on the
Bridge itself. His Grua answers all communications on
the subject of the progress of the works, with the tamest
promptitude.
