In the latter portion of our yesterday's STAn, we
• ;
inserted the wit,,le of the new Ministerial arrangements,

as far as they were announced officially in the Gazelle of
that evening. Today we ha.e only to add, that this
afternoon the KING held a Council at the Roy.sl Lodge,
Windsor, at which all the new Members of the Cabinet
were present and sworn into office. Mr. HERRIES and
Mr. GOULBURN went to Windsor in the same c.rrriage.
At the Cabinet Council yesterday, the subject of the

Korea Speech, by which the Session of PArliament is
to be opened on Tuesday next, was taken into consider a-
ann. The heads of this important dccument were finally
arranged, and were to be submitted for his MAJESTY'S
sanction at the Council held this day.

The Paris Morning Papers of Wednesday, and the
Geseite de France of Thursday, were received last

night. The contents of these PApers are not important;
a considerable space in their columns are devoted to
remarks on the composition and objects of the new
Commission for inquiring into the alleged encroach-
ments of the religious cadets. Some of them express
surprise that the name of Jesuits is not even mentioned,
• although in the discussions of last Session both the late
Ministers and their' opponents called the sect by its
proper tides. Confidence is however expressed tbat the
Commission will do its duty.
The intelligence from Constantinople comes down to

the Ist inst. and states, that when the Allied Ambassa-
dors retired, they ordered the Consols of their respective
nations to take down the arms and colours of their
Sovereigns, allowing them at the same time to reside in
the Tut kish metropolis, bu► only as private individuals.
A numerous meeting of thichief men at Constantinople
is said to hate taken
.place at the Mufti's, where the
• real situation of the empire was explained, as well as
its actual relations with the Three Powets and the In-
surgents. The majority are represented as having
coincided with ►he Reis Effendi, and having approved of
the varlets means of conciliation which he proposed.

By the Flanders Mail of this morning we have re
eeived the Austrian Observer to %he 15th instant. The
intelligence from Smyrna. which u•e here subjoin, is not
Of so late a date as that which we have received through
the French Journils.

SMYRNA, Mc. 41.—T•gat • Lanai.)
The Ambassadors of France and England ate still at
Veurla. Yesterday the Deputies of the French
mee-
.cbants went to that place. They found Count GuiUe.
isinot indisposed, who, however, received them. The

relations, which perhaps may be only short, would not
be attended within, interception at commercial affairs ;
that the Consulate would remain open, and the Rag
not be removed. To the astdnistment c.f. the WO-
ties, the Count answered—that the moment is as so
critical, that he must retract his asssurance. That
he had already written to the Consulate; that in
consequence of an arrangement with the English Am-
bassador, the French Rag would be taken down on
the 15th of J 'unary, and the Consular Office be closed
the same day ; that alter that day the Consular Agents
might remain as private persons at Smyrna, but that
their official character had ceased ; and that the future
protection of French subjects was transferred to the
Ambassador of the Netherlands.

The Deputies made some representations, and begged,
as the English merchants had requested Mr. Canning,
in their address of the 16th inst. to make Smyrna a
neutral town, they were willing to answer for the assent
of the Turkish Authorities to such a measnre; extolled
the moderation and the wisdom of there Authorities,
land lastly requested protection against piracy.
Count Guiliemenot rejected the first proposal, as not
in unison with the political interest; but said, however.
that if a change in his resolution communicated to the
Consulate should take place before the 15th January,
they should be informs d of it through Admiral de ltigny.
With respect to piracy, he promised that immediate at-
tention would be paid to it; political matters had
hitherto not permitted that subject to be treatei with
the seriousness that it met iced.
The above-menticmed resolution of Count Guiliemenot
, was communicated to the Ft ench Consulate on the 19th
instant. Its contents correspond with the above stated
remar ks of his Excellency.

Mr. Stratford Canning, on his side, addressed a reso.

lution to the English Cntrsulate in the form of a memo-
randum, which we will communicate to-mot ro v. The
15th January is also fixed in it as the day hit ss hich the
English Consulste is to be closed, and the H with-
drawn. Mr. Canning replied by this resolution to the
petition of the merch,ants of the 16th inst.
The English subjects were called tngether on this
account yesterday, and Mr. Elliot; one of the Secre-
taries of the Legation, read the resolutions to them,
and added, that after the I.ssh January, every one
might adopt such measur es as he deemed most conform-
able to his interests. Nntwi:hstanding these resolutions
of the two Am'ltssadors, the English and French mer-
chants, confiding in the promised protection of the
Turkish Authorities, seemed determined not to leave

Smyrna.
Admiral de Rigny is said to have declared that the
demands cf the Allied Powers upon the PO te could
no longer be confined within the limits of the treaty of
London ; and that every day's delay on the side of the
Porte would render its situation worse. Mr. Froding,
ltussian Consul, is still here, and d-es not mean to
go away, till he is assured of the departure of M. Iti-
beaupierie from Constantinople. lie will then embark
on board the Constantine liigate, which will go to join
•the squadron of Adniii al Von Heiden.—Austrian O.
