FRENCH PAPERS.

PROM THE 'TOIL! OP REDN/SDAY.
PARIS, Om 24.
Several Journals seem to raise doubt with respect.to
what we have said of Greece. We shall call to their
recollection the words used by the President of the
Council last Session.

"For what end is it proposed that we should include
the succour of the Greeks in the budget for the year?
For this end only, that we should set in opposition the
politics of the people, and the politics of the Cabinet—
that we should substitute the diplomacy of all for the
diplomacy of one, for.that of the King. Do you know,
Gentlemen, what would be the result of adopting such
a system ? It would probably bring greater misfortunes
upon the victim in whom you appear to interest your-
selves; to the evils which overwhelm the Christians in
Greece, it would prbbibly addoll those evils, which
would be the result of a genet alNitsarrel among Chris-
tian people; for that is an effect which would necessa-
rily follow, from adopting the principle of the diplo-
macy of the whole, whilst we have every reason to ex-
pect all that we hope from the sage influence of the di.
plomacy of the Cabinet, by the operation of ehich we
shall speedily see an end put to those evils which are
the subject of regret, and that pacification which is so
much desired, and with regard todwhich the Cabinet has
by no means been so indifferent, as the orators, who
have successively addressed us upon a :object, of which
they are profoundly ignorant, appear to imagine, set-
tled upon a secure and lasting basis."

PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE.

MADRID, Om 12.
The King continues to suffer from the gnat, and to
experience a degree of lethargy, which gives some in.
quietude to his Physician in Ordinary, Dr. Castello.—
Far from decreasing, it has augmented for the last eight
days ; and the King, who has so much vivacity in his
character and constitution, is often surprised sleep,
while working in his Cabinet, or at table, and even
sometimes whilst carrying on a conversation. Within
this few days, a red mark, about the size of a dollar,
has appeared on his Majesty's right leg. Although it
does not cause the King any pain, it has'augmented the
anxiety of Dr. Castello, who wished, last Sunday, to
call from Madrid two or three physicians, for a con-
sultation, to be chosen from among those of the King's
household, and those who enjoy the greatest reputation
in that capital; but Dr. Reboto, first Physician to the
King ; his Surgeon in Ordinary, M. Frutos ; and Don
Augustin Joset de Mestre, his chief Apothecary, op-
posed the consolation, on the ground of its alarming
the King, and causing the Royal Family more inqui-
etude than the actual state of his Majesty's health need
excite; for, in the absence of the gout. and when not
overtaken with the lethargy above spoken of, he enjoys
most excellent health, and is of a robust constitution.

PARIS, Orrons 23.

It is asserted that orders h;ve beer. sent to Brest, through the
telegraph, to equip the frigate La Aortae with all speed. This
vessel is to carry the Diplomatic Agent about to be sent to Ame-
rica, to announce the recognition of the New Republics by France.
We copy this news from another Paper, and earnestly desire M
bear it confirmed.

DUTCH PAPERS.

BRUSSELS, °mous 20.
In the Sitting of the Second Chamber of the States-
General to-dly, the Minister of Finance brought forward
the Extraordinary Budget for 1827, and also a Law
declaring that the sum employed this year in the Re-
demption of the Debt, shall be increased by 2,000,000
florins, and be raised to 2,200,000 florins. His Excel-
lency added, that the Interest of the Debt redeemed in
1825, had been employd in the purchase of 77,000
florins. His Excellency stated the first division of the
Expenses at about 15,313,473 florins, being nearly
2,391,000 florins more than in the current year. This
augmentation is partly caused by a sum of 500,000
florins, eventually necessary for the Roman Catholic
worship; and a sum of one million and a half for the
works on the sea coast and rivers.

The second division of -the Budget, which for the
current year is 7,160,995 florins, being a diminution of
above 1,404.,000 dollars. The ?Ways and Means consist

_
in a sum of 700,000, which besides the sum of 370,000
already assigned for the service of the present year, is
found to be remaining from the receipts of 1823: the
excess in the receipts of 1825 amounting, after the de-
duction of the million at the disposal of the King (and
which 'his Majesty has this time declared his intention of
retaining), a sum of no less than 1,815,797 florins—the
amount of Export and Import Duties now amounting
to 6,900,000 florins. The remaining sources of Revenue
the same as in the present year, only that the additional
cents. are to be diminished.

The project of law for the organization of the Burgher
Guard, has been laid before the Chamber.

would humiliate them in their own eyes. We have al-

Majesty the King has given 5000 florins for the dis•

From the speech of the ',Minister of Finance, on introducing the
Budget, which is new published at full length, we find that the
first subdivision of the annual Budget for the following year is
15,313,4738. being mamas of 2,391,9868. above that of 1826.
The second subditivion of the Budget is 5,756,93611.—La5t year
4t was 7,660,9951: so that Ms part of the Budget shews a diminu-
iden.er 1,404,65611.

We observe that a part of the augmentation is caused'
by the allcitinent this year, for the first time, of 500,000
fl gins, for the expenses of the Catholic worship in the
Northern provinces ;„.;whence it appears that the Catho-
lics in those provinces will not have to discharge in
future, the expense of their public worship, which they
have hitherto been obliged to do. Thus our institutions
ore becoming complete ; equality established in fact,
conformafily to the right of protection granted equally
to all, according to the principles of eternal justice, and
of equal liberty to all religious professions insured by
the fundamental law:

231—A fatal affairhas lately taken place at Luzern.
burg. Three young men,travelling for commercial houses
at Brussels, related at table d'hite, that some Prussian
Officers had the evening before had a q•rarrel with
each other, and come to blows. The latter having he ad
of this, challenged the young men, and they agreed to
fight at a place over the frontiers. The latter, however,
when on their way, were stopped by the Police, and sent
back to the inn, where they immediately wrote to the
Officers, stating the fact. Great agitation having been
occasioned in the city, the Police was very vigilant to
prevent a rencontre, especially as the Prussian Officers,
Lieutenants Poppe and Lobenthal, were seen hovering
about the inn, and endeavoured to get in, notwithstand-
ing the opposition of the servants and the landlord.—.

Lieutenant Lobenthal, however, seeing the door opened,
entered, and desired to speak to one of the travellers.
Being told it was impossible, as they were ander the
cue of the police, he gave his word that he did not
mean to commit any act of violence towards them ; on
which Mr. Ruwette. Officer of the Mareciraussee, went
and told them that Lieutenant Lobenthal desired to
speak to them. They all three came dawn. Mi. IN-
wette went into the room where the Officers were. Mr.
Veyssrt, one of the travellers, followed, and going up
to M. Lobenthal saluted him, taking off his ha', on
which the Lieatenant drew a pistol from under his
cloak, and di4harged it point blank at Mr. V.'s breast,
who fell mortally wounded. The assassin, taking out
another pistol, threatened to shoot any one who ap-
proached him ; and while the: pill ce officer was keeping
back the other two travellers, Lobenthal escaped, and
has not yet been taken. The young traveller died on
the 21st. Lieutenant Poppe is arrested. A strict in-
yesugation is making into the whole of this deplorable
transaction. • •
