NOT EXCLUSIVZ.

PARIS. Jett. 29.
The two sittings which the Chamber of Deputies has
just devoted to a general discussion of the policy hitherto
followed, or to be followed in future by France, have not, as
appears to us, taught any thing new to France and Europe
relative to the subject of discussion ; for the questions of peace
and war, and especially the affairs of Belgium, remain en-
tirely in suspense. The present Ministers, as well as their
predecessors, had already repeatedly declared, that they
would not expose France to the chances of a general war, in
order to recover our ancient frontiers. The speakers on the
side of the opposition, as well as on that of the Cabinet, re-
peated under other forms the arguments brought forward in
preceding discussions. As for Belgium, the first animosity
of the Congress is remarkably allayed. It has perceived the
injustice of the declarations with which the last diplomatic
note was received. A proposal has been signed by
fifty members, being about a fourth of the whole num-
ber of deputies, for the election of the Duke of Nemours.
The Belgians do right to persevere, notwithstanding the
notes of French and foreign diplomatists. Our refusal of
the Duke of Nemours and of the union will render the deli-
berations more national and more independent, if it adopts,
notwithstanding, either of these two resolutions, which, since
the refusal of the Duke of Leuchtenberg is confirmed, can
alone keep out the Prince of Orange.

NAPOLI DI ROMANIA, DEC. 10.—It is publicly known
that the President can no longer rely on subsidies from
France, and that the treasury is empty, or at least on the
eve of becoming so. A recent fact is adduced to prove this.
Colocotroni had to receive a large sum for himself and his
troops. On going to the Commissariat-office, he could ob-
tain only 11,000 talaris, which he indignantly refused,
kicking the bags of money which were before him, and
leaving the office precipitately. The President being informed
of this scene, ordered fourteen thousand talaris to be
paid. The bags were immediately placed on mules, which
were respectfully led to the door of the old chief of Cantena,
aho deigned to accept them. This time it is England that
will assist the Greek Government. It is said that 500,000
francs have arrived at Corfu to be remitted to it. At the
renunciation of Prince Leopold each of the three Powers
promised, in a special convention, to furnish this sum by way
of loan, but for one year only. Notwithstanding the season-
able arrival of this sum, the Government will be obliged to
pay the third part of the quarter in paper, for a multitude of
unknown expenses, which are inconceivably great for so
small a state.

Totmox, Jwx. 21.—Orders have just been given for all
the ships in the port to take in provisions for three months.
They are twenty-three in number, including those in corn-
mission, the immediate equipment of which has been already
ordered. They are to take on board above four thousand
recruits. who are to come so Toulon, to be conveyed to Al-
giers, where they will form the third battalion of the regi-
ments now there, and raise them to the complete war
establishment. This puts an end to all the unfounded re-
ports of the evacuation of the country spread by the journals.
We learn that the regiments in quarantine at Toulon are
affected with the small-pox, which spreads daily.

PARIS' JAN. 29.—We announced yesterday, on the au-
thority of some of our letters, and after the London jour-
nals, that the cholera morbus had. appeared at St. Peters-
burgh. This news is not confirmed. A person well in-
formed, and who her constant intercourse with Peteraburgh,
from which city be receives letters twice a-week, has to-
day given us the positive asstuance that this cruel disorder
has not yet manifested itself there. We are happy to be
able to contradict an account which may have caused uneasi-
ness in some families.
