PROM THE JOURNAL DES DERATS.

•We lave received letters from Marseilles, dated the
21st October.

News has been received in that city ftom the Mores,
as late as the 4th of October. It is rather contradictory,
but this is the substance of the different letters :
Ibrahim has departed with his Egyptians on good
terms wish General Maison. He intended to take away
with him some Greek captives, but was prevented.
Couht CApo distria add Admiral Rigny are at
Navarin.

• Tbeftstresses of Navarin, Coron, and Modon, have
been left in•the possession of the Turks.. Many letters
announce their surrender in consequence of their want
of water and provisions. Thirty French vessels not being
sufficient to Carry away the second detachment of
Egyptians, eleven more were taken up. The transport*
from No. 1. to 41 are now sailing towards Alexandria. •
The Tu:ks had no decided wish to be transported to
Egypt. his believed that some of them will be landed
.it Smyrna. At the departure of the frigate Cybele,
which brings the latest news, nothing was positively
fixed. At this moment the French army is marching
upon Pares, after leaving garrisons in the fortresses of
Navarin, Coron, and Modon, which are to be placed in
a state of defence. Pieces of artillery will be instantly
dispatched from Toulon for that object, as well as a
large quantity of gunpowder.
In consequence of the large number of small vessels
which are employed in the war of the East, an escort
will be given only once instead of twice a month, in
future, to vessels sailing in and out of therStraits; that
pill be sufficient during this season, business being pa-
ral) zed, or, tl speak more correctly, being quite anni-
hilated.
Vessels of war continue to come and go from Algiers
to Toulon; but it we may believe reports on the sub-
ject which appear to be authentic, the officers who carry
dispatches are no longer at liberty to land : they must
give them to the Captain of the port, who transmits
them to the lley. This does not look like a sfisptom
of approaching conciliation.
• It is said chat the Trident is going to replace La
Provence, and that the command of the blockading
squadron is to be transferred to Admiral Rosamel.—
Ttie tettil.'e de Commerce, however, announces that La
Provence has been able to repair its injuries, and that a
96-pounder has been sent to it in place of that which
horst.

THE REVENUE OF FRANCE.
TROY JOULNAL DO COMMERCE.

• The account of the state of the Revenue for the last
nine months of the year, which has just been published, is very
oni•factory. Almost every branch of industry has repetienced a
snarketland progressive increase, except one—the Lottery ; and to
*Ay the truth, we are not sorry for this latter circumstance. If we
Compare our present situation with what it was on the tat of July,
it will be seen that there was then an excess of 15,871,000f.compared
With 1327, and of 19,555,000 f. compared with 182.5, the year which
serves as the basis for the calculations of this year's budget.
On the Ist of October the augmentation W4l 21,255,000 f. upon
189? ; and 22;194,030f. on 1825; and among the branches In ar-
rest., we see the Lottery is so to the amount of 2,056,000 f. cons-
pared with 1825. On the Ist of July there was an advance in this
item of nearly 500,000 f. so that there has been nearly a diminution
of 5,000,000 f. during the last three months.
It must be remarked, that on the lit of July last the revenue,
compared with that of 1827 and 1828, presented an augmentation
et 2,505,0001. under the head of the Lottery. On the In of Oct.
tins augmentation is reduced to 20,000 f. If this branch of the
revenue had maintained an average, the total augmentation would
be 24,000,000 f.--bot in fact the diminution is a subject of pleasure
rather Audi regret. We are not, however, aware whether it has
when from a falling off in the number of players, or from an in-
crease or In their favour.
The augmentation in the produce of the Register duties' for the
last three months is 584,000 f. as compared with 1827. Upon the
Customs it Is 5,505,000 f. which is nearly as much as during the six
preceding mouths. During the brit six months there was a tihui ,
