Letters from France are unanimous, in preparing us
for a change of Ministry. Some say, that the Prince
DE POLIGNAC will endeavour to keep his place, by turn-
ing out of the Cabinet BOURMONT, LA BOURDON-
NAY E, and MONTBEL. The Prince, we apprehend,
does not feel that matters are yet ripe enough for the
success of his plans. We hope the French will not
deceive themselves.

There is an article in the Times, conceived in its
usual tone of jesuitry and mock candour, in which it is
still contended for the Emperor NICHOLAS that he is
inranimated by any spirit of conquest, and that his pro-
fessions of moderation are as worthy to be believed
to-day, as they were while his armies camped on
the Russian bank of the Pruth. It is manifestly, now, a
part of that Journal's deliberate system, to deceive its
readers till the very close of the Rumelian drama : nay,
when the curtain falls at last upon the extinguished
Ottoman, we are prepared to find him still abetting and
justifying the supineness of the Noble Duke, and bolster-
ing that incapacity of which he has been so long an
essential buttress, as well as the " unpaid" defender. In
his comments upon a luminous and convincing article in
t'ae Constitutionnel, where the views and objects of Russia
are developed with masterly perspicuity, he endeavours to
contravene every sound inference and allegation of the
French writer, by a stale appeal to the long since falsified
disclaimer of ambitious projects—put forth by the Northern
Autocrat, at a time when lie really apprehended the conse-
quences of our interference. " When the war was un-
dertaken"—says our contemporary—" a solemn dis-
claimer was made of all projects of ambition, or views of
conquest, on the supposition of its successful termination ;
and nothing has since occurred to warrant a departure
from these engagements on the part of the Emperor,
or to excite a suspicion of their fulfilment on the
part of his Allies." Does he consider it nothing,
then, that in the very midst of negotiations for
peace—such, at least, the Times represents them ;
though, in point of fact, they are only manoeuvres to
gain advantage—that more than a quarter of a million
of additional soldiers are now Under organisation, by
Imperial Ukase ? Does he consider it nothing,
that since this quiet and quieting disclaimer, the
position of the belligerent parties is entirely altered ; and
that Turkey—which, possibly, at that moment, he did
not contemplate so immediately to reduce—now lies sub-
jugated and unresisting at the feet of the conqueror,
who will not surely be at the trouble of subjecting her
for nothing ? Has it not been the darling and time-
fostered hope of Russia—her " consummation devoutly
to be wished," that circumstances might concur in
Europe, to favour her long burning desires and designs,
with regard to Turkey ? and now that they have con-
spired, and that the object of a whole century's dreams
and plans is realised—while the prize of her cupidity lies
prostrate before her, waiting, and almost coveting the
ukase of annexation—is it in human magnanimity that
she shall retire ? The article in the Constitutionnel is

(Iraimistrative on this subject, and his convictions—it
leas been already proved—are our mu. We shall give
it at length to-morrow.

We perceive, by the letter of our able and eloquent
Correspondent, Viaa x, that he has fallen in with the
" Memorandum concerning the Whigs"—a circular
which was printed by us in the summer, for the perusal
of" all whom it might concern." We had no feeling—
when we scattered that document among the party—but
the sincere one of showing to the country its real friends,
as contradistinguished from those pseudo-patriots, who
have brought into such deep disgrace that once powerful
and famous body. Their conduct on the occasion of
Lord MAN nroan's motion is a stigma, which it will
take many sessions to obliterate : but when we say their,
we must be understood as including the Reformers
generally, who—strictly speakini,--vindicated for them-
selves the title of " friends of .the people," with more
verisimilitude in the vindication, than that less popular
and more aristocratic confederacy. As a party, we con-
sider the pure, old, high-principled Wit IGS to have gone
into political defeasance. They have suffered the widen-
ing circle of corruption---.extending its gradual invasion
ring by ring—to cover in by continuous though slow
encroachments, the clear surface of their public honour,
and obliterate with its reptile slime their resplendent
constitutionalities. Not that they have become all cor-
rupt : for a nucleus remains—unstainable as it is un-
stained—from which it is not even desperate to hope,
that the phoenix will yet rise in beautiful renovation.

_ must first concur ; and
_ ',yenta—domestic as well as ex-
, hurrying on with conspicuous rapidity.
not, however, be inferred from these remarks,
contemplate under any circumstances the revival
vhig party. All that we intend to say amounts

the. favourablo,e4
the march of

to this : that there is left of that once illustrious body a
remnant, from which a system of redeeming policy may
yet be looked for by this misgoverned country. But
the principles which bound together that extinguished
federation, cannot in the nature of things ever
again prevail. They must stoop from their incom-
patible isolation, to commingle and consort with the
people. It was well, before the spread of intelli-
gence, and the development of the general mind : the
eagle's loneliness was excused for the eagle's purity.
But the barriers that intervened between the hi ;h orders,
and the mass which constitutes the nation, have been
swept away by advancing intellect, and a stupen,:ous in-
flux of moral powers : distances, interposed by mere rank,
have been removed, and the Peer now beholds himself
much nearer to the peasant. It is in the order of
things. We say then, that that bright and faithful por-
tion of the perished party, to which the country still
fondly turns its eyes—the LAN s Dow NES, the Ho
N DS, the Dacay.s, the CARNARVONS, the ALBE-
RLES, and the FrrzwlLLtAms—must abate much of
its outward aristocratically, and yield itself to those iden-
tifying sympathies, the manifestation of which is now the
only test of its sincerity towards the people.

The Quotidienne appears very indignant, that the
Queen of PORTUGAL should have been permitted by the
British Government to invest one of her subjects, who
brought the news of DE VILLA Fl) it's splefidid victory,
with the insignia of a Portuguese military order. It
forgets the number of Chevaliers de St. Louis, and other
more important acts of Sovereignty permitted at the
Court of Hartwell. There is only this difference
the young QUEEN is the successor of a series of Mo-
narchs always in alliance with the British Crown, while
Louts 18th was a member of a foreign family, im-
measurably at the head of the continental hostilities
with England, and which family—but a few years
previous to its emigration into this country had
assisted the Colonies of Great Britain in asserting their
independence. The same Quotidienne has abused the
Marquis of PALMELLA for his undaunted loyalty, and
honourable adherence to his oaths, and unshaken fidelity
to his legitimate Sovereign: We shall always applaud the
noble character that the Marquis of PALMELLA has sus-
tained throughout all the critical circumstances in which his
country has been placed. Nothing can be more honourable
than the endeavours made by the Marquis to support the for-
tunes of his brave countrymen in Terceira ; and we hope
that if ever an appeal shall be made to the same generosity
which helped Greece to its independence, the voice of the
de-
fenders of Terceira will find an echo in British sympathies.

We have the following precious piece of information
in the Correio de Porto of the 11th inst. just received :

OPORTO, Szrr. 11.

" Antonio Jose Gonsalvo Pereira, Abbot of St. Mamode de
Canigada, of the Archbishopric of Braga, in his own name, and
that of other true and faithful Royalists, friends to the throne and
the altar, has, with the most profound respect and submission, ad-
dressed to his Majesty, Senbor Don Miguel I. a humble petition,
dated rho 26th of August this year, in which he urgently begs for
the re-admission of the Jesuits into his dominions, for the education
of youth; and also for the establishment of the Holy Inquisition, to
punish the execrable crimes of blasphemy and impiety, which are
continually committed."
Of course—MiGuEL will cheerfully comply with the
hallowed petition of the pious Abbot; and forthwith re-
admit the Jesuits, and re-establish the Holy Inquisition !
It was for that express purpose that MIGUEL was sent by
METTERNICH into Portugal.

The Augsburg Gazette has given, in different Sup-
plements, a long article on " The Solution of the Greek
Question," of which the following is an extract :
" Should the private inclination of the Conqueror re-
strain him from the demands to which victory gives a
claim, and induce him to regard the proposals which have
reached him, through the Prussian Officer, by the cir-
cuitous route from Naples to Constantinople, he is a
Sovereign—he is the Emperor of Russia ; and, as such,
has been led by the extraordinary talents of great Gene-
rals, and the heroic valour of his armies, to the goal at
which his predecessors have aimed in vain.
" Suppose now, that he was disposed to consider what
has happened as not having happened, can he, without
endangering the honour of the Sovereign, the palladium
of his empire, all the conditions of it even to the stability
of his throne, and his own personal safety, order his Rits-
sians to retire home front the walls of Stamboul, and the
portals of Saint Sophia, as if the campaigns and their
victories were all a dream? Is there, however, any foun-
dation for this assumption ? Is there, in the personal
character of the Northern Monarch, or in what has since
proceeded from him, anything to entitle us to make such
supposition, which being well founded, the mission of
General MUFFLING would be the greatest misfortune
that has befallen the Russian dynasty and nation
for centuries ? This does not at all appear to be
tho case. Passing over other circumstances, let us
recollect the important declaration with which the
Russian report of the taking of Silistria concluded,
after the success of the campaign was secured, and
General MUFFLING had already reached Naples on
his way to Constantinople. The proposals, which the
Conqueror at Kalantscha sent to Shumla, were rejected
by the GRAND VIZIER ; and in reference to this, that
report gives the SULTAN still a moment in which the
magnanimity of his Majesty the Emperor of RUSSIA
yet allows him to hope. This moment evidently vanished
with the breaking up of the Turkish power ; and General
DIERITSCH has not, for himself and family, the Name,
recording the passage of the Balkan, because the Cabinet
of St. Petersburgh is disposed ingloriously to bury the
fairest fruits of the enterprise, and to plant the banner of
the cross and of victory on the grave of the indepen-
dence of Greece." The article then proceeds to show
that the whole question must now be settled without
the concurrence of the SULTAN, who is to be con-
sidered as having withdrawn from the stage; and
that the full independence of the Greek State, in its
whole extent—that is, including not only the whole Con-

tinent and the Cyclades, but also Euboea and Crete,
must be recognised and established.
The following are extracts from other German Papers
received this morning :
ODESSA, Sere. 2.
The sanitsity state of this town is as good as can be wished.—
Since the case of plague, in the quarter called the Moidavanka,
there have been no fresh patients. Three of those that were sent
to the Lazaretto have died since the 49th August, and one remains
ill. The inhabitants of Kugalnik, Ussatovy, and Kboutora, who
were put into an encampment in the country, are doing well. There
is not a single person afflicted with the plague among them. One
of those that were suspected died on the 31st, bet without any
symptom of plague.
TRIESTE, Sam 13.—[Notfrous our smut Corrapenderes.]
Several mercantile houses here say that they have received letters
from the Archipelago, announcing that the Porte had proposed to
the Ambassadors of France and England, on the advance of the
Russian armies, to cause the Castles of the Dardanelles to be occu-
pied by troops of their nations. It was not known, however,
whether the Ambassadors had accepted this proposal, and done any
thing to carry it into effect.

CITY, Tanya o'CLocic.

We have no arrivals this morning of importance with the ex-
ception of the French express, by which It appesn that the nego-
eiations for peace between Russia and the Tsrks were to be opened
on the 3d of September. This, however, has not produced any
effect on the Consul Market, which opened at the same price they
left off yesterday, 89.1 for the Accoant, and 89i for Money.
In the Foreign Market there is not a feature worth observation :
prices as per yesterday.

CITY, HALF-PAST ONE.

The Cnnsol Market has continued the whole of the morning at
S9i for the Account, alternately buyers and sellers, with little busi-
ness doing. The Public still are anxious for further particulars
from the theatre of war, particularly in regard to the Russian
operations previous to the arrival of the Turkish Commissioners at
the Russian head-quarters, as various opinions prevail in regard to
the fate of Constantinople—whether or not, it will be In possession
of the Russians.
In the Foreign Market nothing doing.

New Orleans Papers to the 6th August, and Charles-
ton Papers to the 25th August, have been received at the
North and South Ameri:an Coffee-house ; the former are

void of information. •
The Charleston Papers say that the Bee, in reporting
some particulars of the voyage of the schooner Eclipse,
from Tampico, had forgotten or neglected one which is too
interesting to our commerce to be passed in silence.
Captain MAUCH-1N u was chased by the frigate Leaked,
belonging to the Havannah expedition, and would pro-
bably have been taken by her, had not the repeated
signals of the Soberado called back the frigate, which
announced that Admiral LABORDE or Don Isi Dolce
BARRA DAS, have thought proper to postpone the re-
venge of Spain. The fact is a serious one, and ought
to attract the attention of the American Government.
Letters from Moldavia of the sth September state, that
although the Turks make no resistance, and that peace
was soon expected, the Russian Government, for these
15 days past, were preparing an extensive armament.—
Great speculations on the subject in the Russian capital.
A private letter from Toulon, dated the 17th, contains
as follows:—" At this very moment, the man-of-war le
Conqu6rant is putting off to sea; Admiral DE RION t is
on board. Some pretend that he sails for Navarino;
others that he goes to Constantinople. It is certain that
the officers did not expect to depart with such precipita-
tion ; for they have been obliged to leave on shore a part
of the provisions they had purchased."
L'Aviso expresses in the following terms its opinion on
this precipitate departure:—" Adm. DE RIG IC Y is to set
off to-night in the Conqu6rant for the East, and touch on
his voyage at Malta. The brig le Grenadier is to bail on
the 20th to join the Admiral in that island, and on. the
25th the brig le Volage will follow the same course."
A correspondent from Toulon writes thus : " Yester-
dap H.M. brig l'Aveliture received orders to sail imme-
diately, and has left the port during the night for Con-
stantinople. It is to stop at Malta. It is said that this
vessel is bearer of very important dispatches to our am-
bassador in Turkey.
Letters from Maim announce, that all the vessels that
are nf:t indispensable to the Levantine station, have re-
ceived orders to start immediately for Constantinople.—
They set off directly under tl►e command of M. de ROSA-
MEL, who is on board the Trident. Do these movements
announce env intervention of France in the treaties be-
tween Turkey and Russia ? or are they intended only to
protect the French inhabitants of Constantinople; against
whom the Turkish populace might have recourse to great
excesses at the approach of the victorious enemy.
We have seen the private letter to a gentleman in the
City, dated Paris, Wednesday evening, which states that
a French messenger had arrived that morning, at the
Ministry of Foreign Affairs—" bringing intelligence
from the head-quarters of General DtEarrscn up to the
4th inst. It was nct expected that the peace would be
concluded before the 9th or 10th inst. but of the favour-
able result of the negociations, no doubt was entertained.
The SULTAN had ordered the Asiatic troops to return
into Asia."

The Courier Francais of Wednesday has an improved
edition of the article from the Augsburgh Gazette which
appears in our Paper this day. In speaking of the re-
cognition and independence of Greece, the Courier
Eranfais says: ENGLAND, on this point, ought not to
remain behind-hand ; it is even necessary for her to
double her succours and supplies, in order to find herself
on a par with France and Russia. It is then that the
European diplomacy will have accomplished with dignity
its duty towards Greece. In regard to the Duke of
WELLINGTON, the emancipation of the Catholics has
proved that he knew how to comply with necessity.
" Both gods and men," says an ancient, " give way to
necessity ; fools resist it."
" The authority that never deceives us" writes us this
day to the following effect : " It is unfortunate that the
Queen of PORTUGAL has taken her departure from this
country to her native land,—as we understand that yes-
terday orders were received from the Emperor of BRAZIL
that she should continue to remain in England."
General Sir R. O'C A LLAG AN' K.C.B. Col. 'Ft DV,
C.B. and some gentlemen from the War-office, have pro-
ceeded from Glasgow to Aberdeen, Fort George, &c. to
examine the books of the Regiments stationed in the
North of Scotland.
NEW POLICE RESIGNATIONS.—Wednesday morn-
ing several divisions of the New Policemen were con-
ducted through their allotted districts by the different
Inspectors, preparatory to their commencing permanent
duty ; and on the following morning (yesterday) Herring,
the Inspector of the second division, received no less a
number than 28 resignations from among the newly-ap-
pointed in his division only. It would appear that the
new candidates for protecting the lives and property of
his Majesty's subjects were not sufficiently acquainted
with what was expected of them to perform until they
had gone through the initiatory drillings, the first of
which caused so many resignations.
