FRENCH PAPERS.

From MeMessager ties Chant6re.i.
PARIS, APRIL 29.

The iltsphury Galva* publishes, in French, the two folios
documents, which it has received from London. and which are ti,:
sequel to that which we have already communicated to our readets :
Protocol of the Conference held at the Foreign Office, Fein may
4, 11130. Present, the Plenipotentiaries of France, Great Detain,
and Russia.

After continuing the deliberations on the execution of the deputa-
tions contained in the protocol No. 1. of this day, the Pleni-
potentiaries proceeded to discuss the choice of the sorereiga to be
given to Greece.

The plenipotentiuies of the three courts consider that amun4
the persons who are more particularly to be recommended to the
choice of the alliance, by their personal qualities and their situatioa
in society, is Prince Leopold of Saxe Coburg. He offers to Greece,
and to all Europe, every possible guarantee ; and, according to the
infotmation which had been collected up to this day, there was rra-
son to think that Greece would receive him with gratitude.
Prince Leopold is not a member of the reigning Royal Family of
England ; he is not capable of being called to succeed to the throne :
consequently the Prince of Coburg is not comprehended in the case
of exclusion, provided for by the protocol of 22d March. As the
husband of the Princess, daughter of the King, he was assimilated
by Act of Parliament to the Royal Family, with aspect to the ho-
nour to be enjoyed by him; but it is proved by the explanations
given by the Government of his Britannic Majesty, that Prince
Leopold is not a Peer of the kingdom, that he has never sat in Par-
liament, and that since the catastrophe which dissolved the ties
which bound him to England be has not exercised there any public
functions.

In his peculiar situation, as fixed by the marriage contract —a
contract by its nature Inviolable, and confirmed by an Act of Par-
liament—Prince Leopold is wholly independent whatever turn event 4
may take.
The plenipotentiaries of France, of Great Britain, and of Russid.
thus declares that they united the votes of their Courts in favour of
Prince Leopold of Salo Coburg and they have agreed to draw up
a joint note for the purpose of 'offering to him in the terms and on
the conditions inserted in the protocols Nos. 1,2, and 3, of this
' date the government of the new Greek State, with the title of So.
vereign Prince of Greece, which shall be transferred by inheritance
to his descendants.

The protocols of this day shall be communicated to Prince Leopold
of Saxe Coburg, and that Prince shall be requested to give his as.
sent to them.

No. 111.

PROTOCOL OF THE CONFERENCE HELD AT THE
FOREIGN OFFICE, 4ru FEBRUARY, 1830.
Present, the Plenipotentiaries of France, (heat Britain, and Ruisia.
Prince Leopold of Saxe-Coburg, having been called by the united
suffrage of the three Courts, to the sovereignty of Greece, the French
Plenipotentiary called the attention of the Conference to the peculiar
situation in which his Government is placed relatively to part of the
Greek population.
He represented that for several centuries France has had the ',ri-
sible of exercising a special patronage in favour of the Catholics,
subject to the Sultan, which his Most Christian Majesty thinks lie
ought to give up to the future Sovereign of Greece, as far as concerns
the provinces which are to compose the new State. But on resign-
ing this prerogative, his most Christian Majesty owes it to himself.
and to a population which has been so long under the protection of
his ancestors, to require that the Catholics of the Continent, and of
the islands, shall find in the organisation which is to be given to
Greece, securities fit to replace the influence which France has hi.
`then° exercised in their favour.

The Plenipotentiaries of Great Britain and Russia, appreciated
the justice of this demand, and it has been mind upon, that the
Catholic Church shall enjoy in the new State the ftee and public
exercise of its religious worship ; that its properties shall be gua-
ranteed; that the Bishops shall be maintained in the integrity of
the functions, tights, and privileges, which they enjoyed under the
patronage of the Kings of France; and lastly, that on the name
principle, the property belonging to the ancient French minions, or
French establishments, shall be acknowledged and respected. TM
Plenipotentiaries of the three Allied Courts, desiring, however, to
give to Greece a new proof of the kind solicitude towards it, and
to preserve that country from the evils which the rivalry of the se-
veral religious confessions, professed there, might exist, have agreed
that all that subjects of the new State, whatever their form of worship
may be, shall be admissible to all public employments, functions.
and honours. and treated on a footing of perfect equality, without
to difference of faith, in all their religious, civil, and political
regard
relations.

brought news that the Turkish government has began to sell Ice
the account of the public treasury, the property of the Greek hinilies
who were induced by fear of persecution to emigrate in the years
1820 to 1824. This measure being taken at • moment when an
amnesty was expected caused general surprise.—Ntsremberg Cor-
