FRENCH PAPERS.

PROM VIZ 'AMAGER DV. CHAMIRRS, APRIL 10.
CONSTANTINOPLII. MARCH 10. •

It is impossible not to be surprised at the tranqun
behaviour of the inferior classes of this capital in the
midst of events which formerly would not have failed
to excite popular tumults. During the last fortnight
the distress has greatly increased, and we were nearly
on the point of being without bread.
The people have shown an inconceivable resignation,
and whoever has lived at Constantinople in former times
knows that whenever bread was dear a revult ensued.
Some supplies have since arrived ; but there is nothing
but the arrival of the great caravan from Smyrna by
land can pnt a stop to the increasing scarcity.
Tne conferences of M. Jaubert with the Reis Efft ndi
have been interrupted in a very disagreeable manner, by
a new incident, which was a complete hoax. The Ot
toman Minister and the French negociefor each received
by a circnitoos channel, a mutilated copy of the speech
of the King of France on opening the Session; and this
fake document contained the most hostile expressions
against the Porte. The Reis Effendi sent for M. Jaubert,
and gave vent to the bitterest reproaches, to which M.
Jaubert did oot know what answer he should make.

Soon after this a correct copy of the speech arrived.
M. Jaubert hastened to the Palace of the Porte, and
showed it to. the Minister, who was still in a very bad
humour,oanskdiri not appear more satisfied with that
than with Ow other. Since that time there has been
no more congergapys. It is said that K. Jaubert waits
for the ansesor,olltis Court to his last dispatches.
This anecdote,. which is very authentic, is a general
subject of completion in Pers. where it is believed
that this manager; is the contrivance of secret agita-
tors to incense AU Porte against M. Jaubert in particu-
lar, and to, krease its initatian against France.
