The information which has recently been received
from Constantinople leads us to conclude that the
Hon. Mr. GORDON, who has been dispatched on a spe-
cial embassy to the Sublime Porte, will meet with no
obstacles to the re-establishment of friendly relations
between this country and Turkey, if, as we have reason
to believe, the limits of Greece which he will propose
should be those which the Allied Powers originally
agreed upon; and to this arrangement, we believe, the
French Minister will likewise adhere. It is expected,
therefore, that the objects of Mr.Geanots'a mission will
be fully and expeditiously accomplished; and if it be
so, Great Britain and France will soon effectually inter-
fere between Russia and the Porte with a view to the
termination of hostilities between those Powers. The
difficulties which Russia has to contend against are
found to be so much greater than had been calculated
upon—and are again likely to be increased by the
plague being more than usually prevalent in the
Turkish army in this season—that it is thought not im-
probable that our Ambassador may be charged with
some propositions having for their object the settlement
of the dispute between Russia and Turkey. At all
events some attempt to open the way to negotiation
will be made; and both parties will probably be glad
of an opportunity to adjust differences which, if pur-
sued, must probably lead to other Powers taking a
decided part is the quarrel.

We received last night the' Paris Papers of Monday,
and the Garen* ds Frew dated Tuesday morning
The latter contains a letter from Bucharest which states,
that the grand head quarters of the Russian army had
been fixed for some days at Gallus. The head quarters
of the corps which is to besiege Stlistri'a are at Kalla
rusch ; and it is added, that the want of forage as well
as the bad state of the roads, caused by the inundations
of the Danube, will not permit any operation before the
beginning or middle of ty.
A letter from Constantinople, dated the lath April,
which is given in our front page, contains more favour-
able accounts of the state of that capital than any which
have for some time reached us. The French Funds
remain steady at 10af. Sc. and the Three per Cents. at
781. 80c. to 791.

We received last night W.ishington Pipers to the
12th of April, and New York Papers co the 18th of
that month. They contain intelligence from Colombia,
which is given in another column.

. We have received this morning by the Flanders
mail, Brussels Papers to the 13th instant, and the Alge-
twine Zeilun: of the 7th, from which the following are
extracts.

By the paragraph from Vienna it would appear,
notwithstanding the reports in the Paris Papers, that
the Duke DR LAVAL MONTMORENCY was about to
leave Vienna on his return to France.
° BRUSSELS. MAT 9.

In the sitting of the Second Chamber to day, the President an -
nos:iced that be had received a Soya! Message with a project of
law relative to the bakers. The Message says that it has appeared
from legal proceedings that have lately taken place, that some
bakers, induced by a love of gain, bad used poisonous substances
' in the bread; and it appearing that the existing penal laws have no
adequate provisions against this crime, his bl.jesty has ;edged it
advisable to lay before the States General a project of law to re-
medy this defect.
This project of law is divided into seven Articles, of which the
following is the substance—
" Those who shall mis with bread or other food, blue vitriol.
white vitriol, or any other deleterious substances, shall be punished
by imprisonment from two to lee years, and a fine of SOO to 500
florins.

" Those who shall mix deleterious substances with liquors shall
be liable to the same penalty.

" The ume penalties are applicable to those who shall sell or
attempt to sell bread or liquors containing poisonous substances,
who shall know they contain such, and to those who shall know-
ingly sell or furniAl such substanc • for an unlawful use.
" 'fhe necessity of this law bring urgent, it was resolved that it'
should be presented and examined as soon as pbriihie."
The Chamber has been engaged in diseussing cartons details
of the proposed changes in the law relative to the administration of
justice.
