FROM TliE QUOTIDIENNE.

From Orleans it is stated, that one of the wheels
of the carriage of the Duke of Belluno broke near
that town, which delayed his Excellency's journey
more than half a day. The Spanish Journals bave
all sorts of :reports respecting the departure of /he
Minister of War. Well knowing this they are altoge-
ther absurd, we can affirm that nothing is changed
in the arrangements of the campaign; on the- con-
trary, it is probable that its commencement will be
hastened.—lt is false that Generals Guilleminot and
Molitor have ceased to have commands in the army.
The Gardes du Corps of the King will arrive at,
Bayonne on the Ist of April.
There was an assemblage of the Ministers yester-
day evening.
The escort of Lancers, conducting the Children of
France to the Thuilleries, were insulted on Monday
evening by persons in a carriage de place on the Pont
Royal ; the carriage was stopped; and the individuals
it contained (four men and one woman) were =-
vetted successively to the Port of the Quay of the
Thuilleries, the Staff and the Prefecture of Police.
A Royal Ordonnance of the 40th of May, 1814,
and subsequently the law of December, 1814, re-
specting the unsold property of the emigrants, re-
stored to the Duke of Orleans, 180 shares in the canals
of Orleans, of which the late Duke of Orleans. was
deprived by confiscation. The events of 1815 oa
curred before the restitution was effected. In June,
some days before the battle of Waterloo, Bonaparte
disposed of 40 of these .shares, each representing a
capital of 10,000 francs, in favour of the Duke of
Bassets°, who had lent the Ex-Emperor 400,000
francs, as dowry for a natural child of the latter. The
Duke of Orleans instituted a suit against the Duke de
Busano, for restitution baore the Civil Usual of.

French Evening Papers of Thursday, which reached
us at a late hour to-day, state, that it was rumoured
the army under MINA had attacked the! French'
frontier, and made prisoners a portion of the Army
of the Faith, commanded by Baron d'Ettoties.

We have received, via Paris, accounts from Madrid
to the 21st instant.

The KING set out for -Saville on the morning of
the 20th. He was escorted by a body of six thou.
sang' troops. The people assembled in great numbers
to witness his departure, and matked their satisfac-
tion by loud acclamations. The attempts which had
been made to excite an opposite sensation had com-
pletely failed. The feeling was general that the re-
moval of the KING was as essential to his own safety.
as to the interests o[his country.
Our Ambassador, Sir WILLIAM ATOUIVT, left
Madrid on the evening before the KING. The persons
of his legation still remain.

The Cortes and part of the Ministers have deferred
their departure till the danger approaches nearer.
The most zealous preparations continue to be made'
for resisting the invaders. The chAnces of success are
thus sensibly spoken of in the COntlibitiOnnei : « If
the Prussians," it says, gi had not been met by she ge-
nius of DUDIOURIER, in the Argonne, and had reached
Paris, France might perhaps have submitted, though
it is impossible to say what enthasiasni, entrenched
in the mountains of Auvergne, or behind the Loire
and the Rhone, might have performed ; but at length
all would have conquered, perhaps because in our
well administered country all lift centres in the capital.
But unhappily or happily for Spain, her affairs have
not yet been so well administered that everything
depends on Madrid ; aad separated from the Govern-
ment by the most powerful enemy, the Provinces
know how to govern and defend themselves. At
every pOint where there are Spanish heads and hearts,'
there is enough of Government to produce discipline
and. defence. Spain is not coacentered at Madrid,'
every point is full oflife. •Th'Spaniards who retired
to Cadiz, and who made tl4lavis under the enemy's
guns, were not conquered; they had. neither Madrid
nor Seville, they had no King, and still they resisted.
At present they possess Cadiz, Seville, Madrid. even
the Pyrenees, and they have preserved their Mug."

.....

We have given, in another part of our Paper, ex-
tracts from the Paris Papers of- /Wednesday and
Thursday. They will be found to conErm, as As,
fro eau hi expected from Papers under the
of Vwswerament, the statements we have made public;
tiogtispec the defective state of the French army of.
invasion. The following litter, which we extract
from the lieraid of this morning, furnishes a mass of
corroborative eircamataaces:

ideate Of utter dilapidation and disorganisation, and Menages
r4tieli, more an army -after a disastrous tette*, thiporfe on the
point of commencing a campaigns Such in substance was the
rtfiwt ptade by General Gudistninst sburtly after hie at
bead4astersabr which he received a sevartreprimand front
Phila. His qnswer to this consisted of copies of the Regimental
fteportip end statements of the War Cottursissaries, which dis-
closed to their alarmed convictions even mote than the General
had in the first instance stated. In the Council of Ministers
consequent upon this, the President very roundly reproached
the Minister of War, who as warmly replied that either the
facts were not true, or that he must have been betrayed upon
all sides by the von-execution of his orders---and that nothing
now remained for him but to ascertain hs petsen the truth or
falsity of the statement. He accordingly set out for the frontiees
with the greatest precipitation.
" But in order that this sudden departure of the Minister of
War should not be interpreted into a confirmation of the reports
in circulation, he was named Major-General to the Duke d' An-
gouleme, which is, in fact, casting a slur upon his Royal High-
ness, inasmuch as it sayi that he requirera Governor and Direc•
tor; but so urgent was the occasion, that they were obliged to
sacrifice the entree prspre of the Prince Generalissimo. This is
the secret of that extraordinary nomination. But this pretext
will not serve to conceal the truth, so numerous and circumstan-
tial are the confirmatory accounts of the state of the army that
are every day arriving at Paris, either by letters or travellers.—
Front some of those which I have beard and seen, I send you one
written by an officer of litmus to his brother. It is dated March
6th from the Bastide de Beam (eight leagues from Bayonne). I
translate-it literally, and leave in the original the most energetic
expressions.—' We have been cantoned here since the last five
days, the regiment which I expected to join at Pau having re-
•ceived the route for this place. I had hoped to have overtaken
them by crossing the country for about twenty five leagues; but
the attempt was vain anti quite intpossible,all the roads, and even
b'ways, being in such a deplorable state, deluged and broken
up by continual rains. In this state it was impossible to keep
the Hussars together; they were obliged to make their way
in sniaU parties of fifteen or twenty, and often separated front
each other by a league or a league and a half, and ploughing
through mired roads, with the mud up to their horses' knees.
Oa my arrival I found my fourrier without a single sous,
owing to which my squadron is hi the greatest possible disorder.
The state of embarrassment I am in is so great, that I see no
means whatsoever of remedying it. In fine, in the disorder in
which we are, rien we pest nous saucer qu'un plus grand devordre
encore. The regiment arrived here quite disorganized. Never
did I see one so completely's°, after an active campaign, as ours
is after this march of twenty-nine days. We arc no longer but
the shadow of tSe brilliant -- regiment. And that fine corps,
so lately remarkable forks discipline and equipments, is now little
more than en onsets Pam Ines sat: bones, sans habits, sates arms, id
isneeterage. What is the cause of all this? I would tell you con-
fidentially if you were near me. Adieu, liL—a pear nsoi 'silk
egardt dans la debacle geiremk ! With troops in such a state of
mind and body as is here described, you may easily imagine
that an immediate commencement Of postilittes is very impro-
bable. Indeed, it is thought that within the last few days, the
furious desire of aggression of certain persons,• is changed ince a
very 'whelesotne fear of attack, particularly since General Guil-
leminot gave them to understand that they had been most egre-
giously deceived with regard to the state of preparation in Spaid.
He affirms that Mina bas an army of twenty thousand hardy
and well-disciplined troops.
" There is also Colonel Fabvier, who has formed the nucleus
of *foreign legion. which Is rapidly increasing every day. The
pones have now discovered that several hundred persons have
contrived to steal away from Paris under vaunts disguises and
with false passports—their destination is easily surmised. The

night after the arrest of the diligence for Bourdeaux, when the
coach was rcady to start, not one of the twelve persons who had
been booked, made their appearance, much to the disappoint,-
ment of the Police, who were in waiting. There is some rumour
of an extensive conspiracy being discovered, and of some hundreds
of Otters being implicated. The King, it is said, has made use
of the following expressions on the occasion :—Faxcliel (Chief of
the Ponce) a ware la France.

" It Is most probable that this conspiracy, real or pre-
tended, will be made use of to drive Villele from the Mi-
nistry. A regiment, on its way to the frontiers, (relying at
Poictlers, and finding neither rations nor money, put themselves
at free quarters on the inhabitants; several outrages were of
course committed, and it is said some rapes were perpetrated."

A private letter from Dunkirk, received this morn.
ing, states that when a Regiment was drawn up there
to be sent to Spain, not one of the officers were suf-
fer ed to depart, and only a few men were picked out
who did not serve under BONAPARTE.
Such is the caution which the French Government
finds it necessary to pursue in its selection of invaders;
Such the proofs which it furnishes of its confidence in
the general loyalty of the army. If the Spaniards
have only to kill off. as many Frenchmen as enter
heart and hand into the cause, their task we should
think will be an easy one.

We have received a mass of intelligence from va-
rious sources relative to the operations in the Morea,
which though not stating any very decided or impor-
tant•advaatages, may be considered as favourable to
the Greeks.

An article from the frontiers of Italy, dated March
15, states that Larissa is still in possession of the
Turks, who have considerably fortified it.

The Attgsburgh Gazette stated a few days ago
that Zeitouni bud been taken by the Greeks ; but the
accounts of to day do not fully confirm it, although
they state that the Greeks occupy the environs of the
town.

• In Epirus the Turks continue to strengthen.the
fortifications of Prevesa„ because they were appre-
hensive of a speedy attack on that place. A Greek
imps has, in fact, made a landing at Demata, and
.has advanced as far as Vonizta, which the Turks'
abandoned precipitately, and iled into the mountains.

gate so little promise of being durable. If they pail
the tribute to them tcsday,:who would be an,werable
that the Turks would not demand it to-morr4 ?
They, therefore, would not tun the risk of having to
pay it twice over. A violent dispute arose in which
one of the Greeks took his gin and was going to fire;
but was happily prevented.

The Greeks of Milo have decreed that every- vessel ;
entering the harbour shall pay an anchorage duty. •
The 14test accounts from Candia say, that the fp2
satiots have undertaken the blockade of the whole
Island, so that they protect the Greeks in their import
and export trade, and hinder the Turks, who still
hold all the fortresses, from obtaining provisions.--
The plague is still at Canea.
1 It is said that the Hydsiots had proposed to the
Greeks-in Crete to blockade the island, on condition
of their agreeing, when it should be delivered from
the Tut ks, to cede one half of it to them ; but that .
this was refused, because it was thought that they dl.
manded too high a price for their services, and that
the payment of a sum of money had been offered
them. The Ipsariots have been more moderate is
their demands.

. .
Two private letters, caw from Trieste, and another
from Marseilles, exhibit a striking contrast between
the conduct of the Turks and Greeks in the war.
The letter' from Trieste, dated the 31st Jinuary,
which is written by a lAdy, gives a melancholy ac.
count of the massacre of her husband before her face
at Scio :

" tly husband and myself," saysthe writer,' were so unfortu-
nate as not to be able to escape by flialit front our count' y with
the other part of our family, and we were taten by the 'forks,
and carried into the Castle; they put us into a very dark and
dismal room, aad the next morning some of them carne to the
door, and desired my husband to go out ; but on pecccAring they .
were about to kill him, be returned, threw himself into my arms,
and exclaimed, This is my last hope—perhaps they will pity me
on your account.' But the cruel barbarh.ns rushed into the roosts
tare him away, and murdered hint in my presence without
mercy. Oh ! I shall never forget that awful moment ! I saw
many others sacrificed, and many innocent children tern Ws
their mothers by the inhuman Turks, it would seem merely for
savage amusement; one taking the infants by one foot, and ano-
ther by the other, and thus tearing them asunder as a piece of
cloth in the presence of their mothers."
The following is an extract from a letter from
Marseilles:

41 It would appear that the capture of Napoli di nomad& has
formed an important epoch in this memorable struggle. It was
matked by a degree of daring intrepidity on one side, and of rare
magnanimity on the other, by the assailants, which has bees
very seldom observed by the most civilized troops of Europe
under similar circumstances. I allude to the moderation of the
victors in not putting any of the Turkish garrison to death, and .
to the fact of the Greek 'hips having conveyed them, together
with the women and children, free of expense, to Scilla-Nuova.
It is related that. while tie prixonars seemed to be overpowered
and thunderstruck by the generosity of that enemy to whom they
have in no instance given quarter from the commencement of
the war, they had no sooner been landed from the Greek Bret,
than a band of Janissaries, forming the garrison of Scala Nueva,
furious at the thought of the recent tnumph against than, felt
upon tome unfortunate Greeks who had escaped the previoa•
massacre of their countrymen at that place, and assassinated se-
veral before the Aga had time to interpose. Such is the return
which every effort on the part of the Greeks, to conduct the was
on principles of moderation, has invariably met with !"

Virginia Paper: arrived this morning to the 25tt
February.---. The New York Advertiser contains the
following, from New Orleans ;—c, The Imperial
troops have began to desert the standard of the Em-
peror Iturbide; his reign will be but of a shot t dorm,
tion. He had about 12,000 men to pay, and to satisfr .4
them occupied the chief part of his time. Upon the
fidelity of these men rested the safety of his Crown.
General Victoria is extremely popular, and such a
man must be a formidable opponent to a Throne
raised like that of Iturbide."

By the account; from Holland we understand that
irreral of the dykes have broken, which has caused
a great inundation. A vast number of villages ate
'Udder water and nothing but the steeples of the
Churches seen. The damages sustained by this mit. j
fortune are incalculable. •
In our recent observations relative to the Ware*
sousing. Bill, we noticed the fact of our silk manu-
facturers beating those of France out of the foreign
Market. In confirmation of this fact, we shall not
qnote from the Morning Paper which opposed our A
view of that measure, and which therefore is no in.,
wrested witness, the following statement, contaiaed
in a private letter from Marseilles :
• a Yoe will be able to form some idea of the nianufartuint.
prespesity of this country, when Informed that out of the sixty
thoessed operative weavers end embroiderers of Lyons, fifteen
thesiewl are at this moment dependent for bread on the casual
dimity of the Public! When at a recent occasion the state ad
Owe unhappy people wu represented to the Minister, a stue d.
thawing francs (ZOO) was all they could obtain to prevent
don boa starvation. The consequence of this state of thaw_
to. Ilk Claw garrison Is required to maintain tranquillity at
&yens, where popular tumults have been very frequut of late."
It mast be observed that the protection afforded
'to the silk trade in our country, by the Laws whicit
Save ensured to the manufacturer the monopoly of
13ke home market, could have had no beneficial affect:
;in procuring for the products of his industry a sfle ,
the foreign market. On the contrary, it is an*
mitted fact that every monopoly enhances the pries
of the article monopoliudi consequentlyoendt
to exclude it from every market but that one of which
the Laws.give it the exclusive possession.
