BRUSSELS PAPERS.

BRUSSELS, APRIL 2.
The accounts from Vienna say, that it is observed,
that Prince Metternich, the Minister for Foreign Affaiis,
is extremely engaged, and that it is with the English
Ambassador that he has the most frequent conferences.
This circumstance has given rise to a belief that Eng li
-
land and Austria will make a powerful opposition to
the projects of Russia. At Vienna, France and Prussia,
are considered as firtily,attached to Russia, in the case,
of war in the East. Considerable fermentation prevails,
'n Servia, of which province, It is said, Austria will
take pessessicia, if the itussiaas
.A smart shock 4'an earthquake was lately fekin the
environs of Halmstadt, in Sweden—a very extraordi-
nary phenomenon in that latitude.

In the speech deliveted by the Minister of the Inte-
rior, in closing the Session of the States General, his
Excellency, after -observing that every Session gave
fre,h proofs of the sincere co operation of the several
branches of the Legislative Power, and the perfect
agreement between the Sovereign and the Representa-
lives of the nation to promote the, general welfare,
briefly recapitulated the important results of their la
bouts, and speaking of the new Codes, he said, You
have continued the examination of the proposed Codes,
and added more stones to the edifice of our new Legis-
lation, which, if it proceeds slowly, will offer a more
solid pledge of perfection and durability ; and future
generations, which shall live under these laws, will not
ask whether much time was required to complete them,
but whether they pi ope: ly secure the liberty, the honour,
the lives, and the property of the citizens:'

FROM THE FRONTIERS OF POLAND, A/ARCH 20.
All the accounts of extraordinary levies in the king-
dom of Poland, which site read of in ptiblie Journal-,
are as unfounded as the statement that fresh Russian
troops hid marched. into the kingdom. Neither the
Polish army, ntsr*.the Russian troops in Poland, have
been auginented, or removed to other: stations, and not
the sl ghtest change has been made in this respect for
some years. The liussian'Gtilias will leave St. peters-
burgh on the 13th Airs, il, to. march to Talezym the
roads leading to the army of Count Wittgenstein are
covered with military stores, !cc. In that army.
FROM THE VISTIJLA,.MAncu 26.
According to authentic accounts from St. Peters-
burgh, these was no talk these on the 12th inst. olds!
Russian army being to pasi the Pruth ; on the contrary,
it was hoped that peace would be preserved bfthe mea-
sures that had been taken. Ordirs had, however, been
given for the march of part of the Imperial Guard, con-
sisting of two battalions & each Regiment of Foot; four
squadrons of each Regiment of HAse, and the reqUi.ite
Artillery, which are to leave the capital at the beginning
of April, to. form, in case of need, a reserve camp.—
There can be no doubt that the 12th of April must be
considered as the List delay gianted by the moderation
inciniagnanitnity of the Emperor. The Hatti Scheriff
.could only be understood as a formal declaration of
liar; as- the Porte had not only torn all the bonds of
tetanal agreement, but had entirely destroyed ihe-Mis.•
sion then commet.ced, !:.y..the closing A the Bosphorus,
and the violent prieasttle, adopted.

STOCKHOLM, Mmtcn 25.

A report that ,had been for some months in circala-
tion-of an extraordinary convocation. of:the D:et, is' de-
clared to be highly improbable. . Still more so, the
addition that it will meet at Oubro; whieheatc:ord-
ing to the ordinances,cannot be done, unless the advance
of an enemy, the plague, or other equally important
occurrences, render the meeting in the:capital-impossi-
ble. as dangerous to the iree,iom and Safety, of the Diet.

This is the same squadron which, according to the list
accounts from Aleiandria, had sailed. with provisions,
as it was given out,fOr Candia, but afteiwards steered

MARCH 28.—According to accounts from Modon,
received at Zante the 28th of February, Ibraham
Pacha, after the arrival of an Egyptian schooner from
Alexandria, which probably brought him his father's
orders, had left Modon the 15th of February, for Tri•
polizza, with 12,000 regular infantry ; 3,000 irregular
infantry, 1,000 cavalry, one hundred
.artillery, twenty
miners, and a great number of horses and mules laden
with provisions. There were different opinions on this
movement, after his long continued inaction. Someaay
Ibraham will supply Tripolizza with provisions and
