The French Papers of Saturday last have been re-
ceived. They announce the death of the Duc de
Rtcautzu, on Friday last, after an illness of a few
hours. Some of the French Papers contain splendid
eulogies on his talents and virtues ; but the fact is,
that although he was at the same time a Lieutenant-
General in the French and Russian armies, Prime
Minister to the King of FRANCIL at Paris, and Gover•
,or of Odessa, in Russia, yet he was a weak man ;
and he neither displayed those talents as a States-
man, nor performed those services which could give
him any.importance in the history of his age or coun-
try. That be was an amiable man we believe, but he
wanted the abilities and the firmness of a Statesman;
and, though twice nominally the Premier of France,
was but the tool of the factions, who placed him at
the helm or hurled him from it at their will. The
Duc de Rtcuraazu, who died at the age of 53, was
the last of his illustrious house in a direct line.
Tbeelections in Paris have terminated in the triumph
of the Liberals. The four candidates of that party,
Messrs.TaaNAUX, an eminent manufacturer; GASPARD
Gor, a merchant; Tatriza, a distinguished member
of the French bar; and ALEXANDRE de la BORDE, a
man of letters, were returned on Friday by a large
majority. The Ministerial candidates were Messrs.
OLIVIER, BRETON, BONNET, and LEBRUN. The qua-
lification of an elector for Paris is so high, that in a
warmly contested election only 2,322 voters can be
brought to the poll on both sides ; and, when it is
found that out of that number not above a thousand
can be induced by every species of Government in-
fluence to support a Ministerial candidate, we cannot
hesitate to admit that the wealthier, more respectable,
and the more independent portion of the people of
Paris, at least, have decided against the late encroach-
ments on French freedom.

The Constitudonmel, remarking on this triumph,
says—" An important political question was to be
decided—Paris had to pronounce between the system
of the Ministers and the principles of those who are
the true friends of the Charter, and the defenders of
a sage liberty. The two parties stood face to face—
the one under the banner of power, with the arms
which power had prepared (the Election Law), to
assure itself a victory of which it boasted in anticipa-
tion: the other party appeared with no other force
than that which is gi :en by courage, purity of inten-
tion, and devotion to the public cause—yet the com-
bat was but short, and the victory never doubtful."
The Coiestitutionnel contains a new speculation on
the affairs of Turkey, which is to be" Europeanized."
What this means we know not, unless that his Sub.
lime Highness, the head of the Ottoman Empire,
is to be made a member of the Holy Alliance. The
article is cotitained in a letter from Vienna, of which
the following is an extract sly" Upon information
from a good source, I can state that Prince 'thrum-
vlcif give.a formal assurance to M. de TATISCULTP,
that as soon as war broke out between Russia and
the Porte, the Austrian Minister should instantly leave
Constantinople, and Austria make common cause with
Russia; and moreover, that hopes were entertained of
drawing in the Cabinet of London to join in the mea-
sures to be taken in common. The plan agreed upon
at Vienna has transpired as to its principal stipulations.
It is thought to give Wallachia and Moldavia heredi-
tary Princes, to bring Servia within the same prin-
ciple, and to regulate the sovereignty of the Porte
over the three intermediary States. The principle has
been adopted, that the maintenance of the Porte as
an European Power is imperiously commanded by
circumstances of the greatest weight, and as it is pre-
tended to be known that the SULTAN himself would
be gladly rid of the Janissaries, an unbridled soldiery,
it is proposed to condescend to assist him in that 06-
d:is the Turkish power would be ' Euro-
and wovl4 square better with the general

SMYRNA, APRIL 13.
. We have advice: from Salonica to the 6th. The
Greeks were in insurrection in the ;tillages situated*
the foot of Mount Olympus, and the Pacha of Salonica
was marching against them.
The Pachas still keep their hbld in the plains and
the principal towns of Thessaly, without having yet
attempted to repass Thermopyle i-lbe mountains are
occupied by the Greeks. The whole country has sot
yet revolted, but the inhabitants seem disposed to rise
as soon as the Ottoman troops are gone.
It is stated that the inhabitants of Mount Olympus
will also raise, in the spring, the standard of inde-
pendence, and that they can arm about 24,000 men ;
half of 24 villages of Mount Pelion is in open revolt,
the other half wavers still in uncertainty.
