EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

At a late hour this afternoon we received the
French Morning Papers of Saturday. The fol-
lowing are extracts from the Constitutionnel :--

FRONTIERS OF POLAND, APRIL 10.—News from War-
saw announces, that several corps of troops coming from
the interior of Russia, are marching to Abbelow. The
head-quarters of Count Ostin Sacken, have received orders
from St. Petersburgb to halt, by which it is concluded,
that there is a sufficient force between the Dnieper and
the Danube, and that new reinforcements are not wasted
for the next campaign. It is supposed the above troops
have received anotller destination, and are going to rein-
force the army of General Paskewitsch.

BERLIN, APRIL. 23.—1 t is announced that the Emperor
and Empress of Russia will lea re St. Peteraburgh about
the Bth of May, and arrive at Warsaw about the 15th of
the same month. His stay will not be long, but he will
proceed to the army of the Danube, and the Empress will
not go to Berlin. It appears that the overflow of the
Danube impedes greatly the passage of the Russians to the
right side. A great deal is said here about the mission
of Lieutenant-General Suchleten, who it is said is gone
to the Powers of the North to propose to them cer-
tain measures, should a rupture take place with England,
as well as to secure the commerce in the Baltic. 'The de-
parture of Royer for Vienna, from whence he is to pro-
ceed to Constantinople as Prussian Ambassador, has caused
some sensation.

NarLxs, APRIL 17.—1 t ii: now certain that the French
and English Ministers will depart in a few days for Con-
stantinople. An extraordinary courier has arrived from
England, bringing instructions to Mr. Stratford Canning,
with the basis of conciliation adopted by the three Allied
Powers.

A private letter from Germany, received last night,
states that the Turks have intercepted near Silistria a
Russian convoy.

The French Papers contain some matters of

Parliamentary interest to the economical part of
the people of France. A Commission of Depu-
ties has been appointed to scrutinize a branch of
the public expenditure during the administration
of M. DE PEYRONNET, who, it appears, had
appropriated certain monies to the use of his of-
fice without first having obtained the sanction of
the Chamber. The news in these Papers from
the East corroborates what we have before re•.
ceived, as to the great extent to which the pre-
parations are carried for recommencing the war.

It is now said that on the side of the Turks the
preparations are most formidable, so far as the
number of troops is concerned. Orders are
said to be given to lay waste every thing, if a re-
treat should be necessary, but this seems almost
unnecessary, as it is the constant practice of the
Turks to leave every place they are compelled to
abandon a scene of utter desolation. On the
present occasion this barbarous custom is erected
into a system, and a new staff, under the direc-

tion of an old German officer, is ordered to or-
ganize a plan for a general conflagration, before
the enemy can penetrate to such places as it may
be necessary to evacuate.

A message has this morning been sent from

the Bank to the Stock Exchange, that there will
be a funding of three millions Exchequer Bills

in the Four per Cents. of 1826, at 101-10 for
every Exchequer 1001. Bill redeemable in 1833.
This announcement produced a trifling sensa-
tion, but had no material effect upon Consols.

. _
If we may credit an article from Ancona in

the German Papers, the Russian Admiral
HEYDEN proposes to blockade the harbour of
Alexandria, in order to hinder the Pacha of
EGYPT from supplying the PORTE with provi-
sions. The writer of the article proceeds to say,
that " the blockade of Alexandria would be very
injurious to Constantinople, and greatly embar-
rass the Pacha of EGYPT, because, since the oc-
cupation of the Principalities, and the rigorous
prohibition of importation from the pm is of the
Black Sea, Constantinople has derived almost all
its supplies of corn from Egypt ; and the trade of
Alexandria, which has already declined in a very
alarming degree, would be reduced to nothing by
this measure." And no doubt it would ; but then
the question arises—will the English squadron per-
mit a blockade which would have the effect of ruin-
ing our commerce with Egypt ? We think not.

Russia, as an independent belligerent, may assert
her right to make war in her own way, but then it
rests with other Powers to say whether they will
remain passive spectators of such interference to
the sacrifice of all their own interests. Eng-
land will not—and we are sure France will
not. It is pretty clear at present that the
Russian Ambassador in this country does
not find matters run so smoothly as they did

a. '~ 's

last year, _or now the Duke of WELLINGTON
has no fears for Ireland to be thrown into the
scale against him, by the Russian Ambassador.
Indeed, the settlement of the Catholic Question
will do more for England abroad than any
victory which her fleets or armies could gain.

The following are extracts from German and
Frankfort Papers of the 27th of April, which
have been received this morning. It will be
seen that the general bearing of the news is
against the Turks, who are represented as very
discontented at the continual demands of the
SULTAN for prosecuting the war :

FRONTIERS OF SE AVIA, APRIL 10.—A letter from
Sophia says—" The demands of the Sultan upon the na-
tion become more and more oppressive, and the discontent
of all classes of people increase in proportion. Loud
complaints are made of the poll-tax, and the violent levies of
recruits, and. lamentations on the state of things which
must exhaust all the resources of the Porte, without hold•
ing out the prospect of any advantage. The Sultan is
playing a hazardous game; the minds of the people in the
capital are more inflamed than in other places, and the
consequences of a victory obtained by the enemy are in-
calculable. The Sultan is not-deficient in ability to under-
stand the state of things ; but he is naturally an enemy to
all concessions, and not inclined to give way unless his
pride is not wounded, and an appeal is made to his mag-
nanimity. In general the Turks have no notion of nego-
ciating in the sense of European diplomacy, and the
grand mistake that has been made in all the negoeia-
tions with them hitherto is, that they were carried on
in the strictest sense of the wot d, in a mercantile
spirit, higgling with them for concessions, without offering
any thing in return—a mode of proceeding that must
naturally offend a proud people, who entertain an exag-
gerated idea of their own importance, and which thus
cannot lead to peace."
VIENNA, APRIL 22.—Metalliptes, 98 1-16 ; Bank
Share., 1,108.

LEIPsIC, APRIL 14.—We have reason to hope that the
Eastern fair will be visited this year by many merchants,
especially from GaHick and the Buckowins, whose ab-
sence we have severely felt for some years past.
