REPORT.

PAnts, A ITG: 39.—A person who has arrived fron-

the Chateau of St. 00..1;1, as,ures us that a repot.'
was spread there of the burning of Constantinople.
by the order of Sultan Mahmoud, who is stated tc
have afterwards retired with his army.
This news appears to us equally extraordinary and
2remature, and we should not have repeated it, if it
had not been the subject of all the conversations in
the saloons of the palace, (it appeared to be credited).
The precipitate departure of Admiral de Rigny for
Toulon, may very probably be connected with the
affairs of the East, which the successes of the This•
ans will render more intricate.

It is generally believed at Toulon, that the Ad-
miral, as soon as he arrives, will embark for the Levant
on board the Conquerant, which still bears his flag.
TOULON, AUG. 25.—The Paris Journals have
spoken of the measures that should be taken against
Algiers. Those of our seamen who are acquainted
with the place affirm that a bombardment, such as
appears to be intended, cannot produce any advan-
tageous result. It is unfortunately but too true that
an expedition of 30,000 or 40,000 men would be
the only means of reducing Algiers, notwithstand-
ing the difficulCes with which it might be atteaded.
Besides, the lateness of the season will soon render
it impossible to carry into execution either of those
two measures, which the Government will be obliged
to defer. The gun-boats are still in our port, and,
to tell the truth, there is no more any expectation
of their sailing to Algiers.
(From the Journal du Commerce of Aug. 31.)
PARIS, AUG. 30.—His Highness the Dauphin
arrived to-day from Cherbourg, and was p:esent at
the Council of Ministers. - _

It is positively affirmed that the Chamber of Com-
merce at Paris has offered to M. de la Bourdonnaye
to give up the use of the Exchange for holding the
sittings of the Chamber of Deputies during the time
necessary for the repairs, which are considered in-
dispensable in the hall of the Bourbon palace. The
Chamber of Commerce is convinced that the mer-
chants of the capital will voluntarily retire into the
temporary hall, which happily still exists, not to leave
any pretext fur delaying the convocation of the
Chambers.
jn the interview which M. de Chateaubriand had
yesterday with M. de Polignac, he delivered to the
Minister a letter, in which he requests a private au-
dience of his Majesty. It is not known whether it
has been granted.
(From the Courier Francais of Monday.)
PARts, AUG. 31.--It is probable that the Ib.N-
sians, masters of the Forty Churches, a city at the
source of Cavach Dere, which is nne of the
branches of the Hebrus, will manoeuvre toward;
Rodosto, to a city and sea port of the Proponti-,.
They will then proceed to the Judge-sou, a river
which falls into the sea near the ancient lieraelea.
At four leagues thence are the walls of Anastasio!,
which have never yet stopped an enemy with a force.
There, however, the ground will be disputed, if
there is not an insurrection at Constantinople against
tire Sultan, or if the Divan does not supplicate
peace. There will be a battle at the passage of the
Boront Telle-rinde (eight leagues from the capital),
where the ~eat question will be decided.
We have nothm7 now to wish but the establish-
ment of a new Greek Empire in the Eas', which may
comprehend without any change the whole of Tru key
in Europe, and part of Asia Minor.
(From the Constitutionnel of Aug. 31.)
Hardly had M Chateaubriand arrived in Paris
when he resigned his place as Ambassador to the
Court of Rome. It is said that he solicited an au-
dience of the ring, :77 •' purpose of submitting to
his Majesty the motives for his retirement. The
day appointed for the audience is riot known.
It is rumoured that Ministers entertain a hope of
securing a majority in the Chamber. It is even
pretended that secret inquiry is making into the for-
tune and the debts of every Deputy, the number of
his children, and other circumstances. Such a pro-
ceeding would be well worthy of an Ultra-deplorable
Ministry. If any thing of the kind be in progress,
it cannot be so effectually concealed by the cor-
rupters as to prevent its being made the ground of
future accusation from the Tribune.
The wine E-.77:-.'ers of Champagne and Lorraine,
who are in C:e habit of giving to the wine of each
year the name of the event, or of the person most
celebrated since the preceding vintage, have chris-
tened the wine of 1829 Viola Bourdonnaye, because
it will be detestable and riot worth keeping.

(From the Journal des Debats, Aug. 51.)
On the 30th September, 1818, Monsieur, now
Charles X. was by a Royal Ordinance deprived of
the command of the National Guard, of which, from
the earliest days of the Restoration, he had been
Colonel-General. It will not, we suppose, be de-
nied, that the organization of the Army belongs to
the lc:nig, and forms part of his prerogative. There
existed at that period a Journal especially conse- •
eratetl to the support of monarchical doctrines. To
th Journal M. Polignac sent some articles, in one
of which t:e says, " Such a measure (meaning the
removal of Motoieur from the command) has dis-
solved the ties which so honourably bound the Na-
tional Guard to the- 'll:rone." Now, in the ar-
ticle from the Journal des _Debate, which has beep
recently made the subject of trial• we said
that the appointment of the new Minis:_ry b:"1 once
more broken the tie which united the nation !0
Sovereign. No idea was entertained of making -11 a,
Polignac's phrase the object of condemnation. For
a phrase, however, of exactly similar import we have
been brought to trial and punished. What difference
is there between his phrase defier un nueud, and
ours, rompre un lien? He used the word Throne,
and we the word King. We have been prosecuted
only for repeating his words—a fresh proof that the
Charter is impartially administered, arid that all
Frenchmen are equal in the eyes of the King.
(From the Quotidienne of Aug. 31.)

In letters from Madrid, which appeared in some
of the Journals, it is said that a change was about to
take place in the Spanish Ministry. That a change
will soon take place we have no doubt, but it is pro-
bable that the letters alluded to are not correct as to
the names of the new Ministers.

JUSTICE ROOM.—On the 29th inst. William
'loser was brought before P. BREMRIDGE and W. F.
for stealing a pair of shoes from the stable of
-Arr. W. C.,-..a.arr, riding-master of this place. Mr. CRAMP
deposed that he !'ad lust A pair of shoes, and that he verily
believe! the prisoner !,td sto:-.n them. A warrant was
therefore issued to search the pr:,!nner's house, and the
shoes were found in a dark corner. The evidence ap-
peared very clear against the prisoner, and was about
to be committed ; when Cox the constable stif.Tped for-
ward, and stated to the Bench that while engag.:4l
in
searching the house, he saw the prosecutor slily take a
pair of shoes from his pocket and throw them into the
corner, and shortly afterwards be called out to Cox to go
and search the dark corner, as he thial,lit he could see
lying something like a pair of shoes there. 6 Cox
accord-
ingly picked up the shoes, when CRAMP
immediately
" They are my shoes, I'll swear to them, take the
rascal into custody." Cox was tempted to accuse Cn
st °see of having himself hid the shoes in the prisoner'sAP
house, but thought it would be better not to make the dis-
closure until he was before the Magistrates. Another
witness swore that he had seen Cramp put a pair of shoes
into hi,
pocket, previously to going into the prisoner's
boti,e with the constable. The prisoner was immediately
discharged, and on leaving she Justice Room, informed the
Aiagistrates that be should immediately take proceedings
against CRAII P, for endeavouring by wilful perjury to ruin
of an innocent MAlL—Briyhton Gazette,
