FRENCH PAPERS.

PROM THE ETOILE OF TUESDAY.
NAUPLIAS, Aaaurr 30.
The folloveikg letter is too honourable to the patriotism
.of General Kat aiskaki, to be fora moment suppressed:

" ELEUSIS, Au.oore
" It.t.usTrttous BROTHER--I have received your let-
tel. 1 perceive what interest you take in the misfortune
which has just overwhelmed me. I dotibt not that you'
-have participated in the grief caused by the loss of my
wife;. know, however, that, occupied as I am solely
with the stfety of my country, I support with resigna
tion all possible misfortunes; henceforth you, my friends,
shall be my family and relations. I thank GOD that
you are still preserved to me. Some unhappy circum-
stances, and, above all, the paucity of means which I
possess of keeping up or augmenting my camp, leave
Kioutaki still to waste the rerritol yof Attica. I shalt,
however, employ all the resources in my power to ful-
fil the promises which I made before I left Nauplias. I
should have a real pleasure in gratifying you in this re-
spect, for know your anxiety and the sacrifices you
have made for the military operations in Eastern Greece.
Some friends announce to me that I have lost all myi
for one, apd call upon me to go to Calamos to take care
of my children, who remain without support and with-
out means of existence. I will do no such thing : I will
remain here and shed the last drop of my blood for my
ce .ntry, and for you. Do you also bear up ; let no mis-
fortunes intimidate you ;—as to me, my motto hence-
forth shall be—' My Country, my Friends.'
" Your Brother, " KARAISILAKI."

FROM TUE JOURNAL DES DERATS OF MONDAY.

LISBON, OcToataT.

Oar Gazette contains the following Decree:
‘. Being authorised by the Decree of my august 13ro•
ther, puolished at Rio Janeiro, on the 20th August last,
to order the first convocation and first instillation of
the Coi tes—without following those regulations for the
ordinary convocation and installation prescribed by the
18th Arc. Ist cap. title 4th, of the Constitutional Char-
ter-1 hereby convoke, in the name of the King, the said
C,,rtes against the SOth October cut rent, on which day
the opening of the Session shall take place. The Secre-
taries of State, and others to whom it belongs, will at-
tend to this Decree, and cause it to be executed.

" Given at the palace of Ajuda this 4tb October, 1826.
(Signed) a The INFANTA REGENT.
(Countersigued) "F.E.T. DE ARA GAO MORATO."
In consequence of the above decree, letters of convo•
cation have already been sent to all the Peers of the
kingdom, and to all those deputies whose names
are known.

1 It has been observed, that all the troops who go in
detachmeats to the Palace of Queluz, where the Queen
resides, return loaded with money, and imbued with
principles contrary to the Government =principles which
the soldiers manifest when drinking in taverns by sedi-
tious cries, which frequently occasion riots, followed by
disagreeable accidents. These circumstances have de-
termined the Government to confide the guard upon
the palace of Queluz to the merchant militia corps,
which is composed of wealthy merchants, or at least per-
sons in easy circumstances, not likely to be seduced by
the agents at the palace, whose political sentiments are
opposed to the Constitution.
The 7th regiment of infantry of the line has marched
to garrison Almeida. The disposition of this regiment,
which at one time was rather unfavourable to the Con-
stitution, has completely changed since the Government
replaied their chiefs, and the majority of the officers
who commanded them. This disposal of the regiment
does. not, however, appear to be a very wise one,
because, independent of the natural levity of the soldiers,
which may lead them again to entertain those feelings
which they manifested at Fort St. George, after they
took the oath to the Constitution; in addition to this,
the dangerous precedent of a desertion en masse, by the
former garrison of Almeida, indicated the propriety of
sending to that fortress, a regiment of tried fidelity.—
The 7th regiment of Cavalry of the Line have been sent
to garrison Campo Mayor, a place of considerable ins-
portance on the frontiers. Orders have been sent to all
the Monasteries to hold themselves ready to yield up a
part of their respective buildings, wherever it may be
judged most proper to quarter any troops. The report
which had got abroad, that English troops were to be
quartered in the Convents, arose out of these orders.
(Note of the French Editor.—We were informed by our Corres-
poedents at Madrid and Cadiz, in their last communications, that a
report was current in these two Cities, that English troops were to
come from Gibraltar to Lisbon. This report, which seemed to us
exceedingly insprobAde, we did not then publish, and we publish it
now, less from any belief of its truth, than from a wish to com-
municate to our readers all that is passing abroad.]

MADRID, Om 14.
Not only has M. de Sousa obtained restitution of the
arms and accoutrements of the Portuguese deserters,
but he has prevailed, moreover, upon our Government
to give satisfaction for a kind of triumph exhibited by
the Pottuguese deserters at the depot of Villa Nueva, in
honour of the anniversary of the Infant Don Misuel,
by carrying round his portrait in triumph, with cries of
" Long live Miguel, King of Portugal!"
General Silveira quitted the capital on the Web, in

the direction of Palencia, that is to say, by the road
that leads to France. The order, by virtue of which
the General quitted Madrid, enjoins hip to leave the
kingdom a 3 soon as possible. It even appears that
police agents were sent after hub, to watch him, and
compel him to continue his journey, should he attempt
to stop any where without reasonable cause.
Mr. Lamb sets out to-morrow for the Escurial, ?long
with M. de Souza, who still continues to negociate,
although not invested with any political powers. As
to Mr. Lamb, it is asserted that he goes to the Escurial
to press for an answer to the last Notes which he gave
in to Mr. Salmon, to which the latter is in no haste to
reply. This report does not appear devoid of all found-
ation, for the English Embassy has four couriers in
waiting, to set out with di.; atches.

• MOSCOW, SKr: 27.
The supper given on the 22J, by the Duke of Devon-
shire, at which the rmperial Family were present, sur-
passed every thing of the kind rreviously given. There
were s'reen tables, at each of which there were five
different courses fur four hundred peop'e. They were
decorated with flat% ers arid figures formed of sugar,
which were changed at every enurse, for others equally
elegant and curious. The gold and river plate orn I-
mented with the arms of E 'gland, on which the supper
was served, and whose elegant workmanship was con-
formable to its intrinsic value, is estimate] at more than
a million of silver rubles.

On the 23d inst. the great theatre was thrown open,
gratis, by order of the Emperor, for the admittance of
all the military who are still here. The Imperial Family
honouted the performance with their presence. The
first and second tiers of hoses were. occupied by the
Generals and StaffOlficets of the different Regiments,
and s,ooo.soldiers were scattered over the other seats.
The performance was the Cossack and the Pod, a vau-
deville, and the opera of the Polish Jew Tavern, com-
posed by Prince Tscher Knffskey, which, sixteen years
ago had been translated into the German language, by
the Secretary of the Theatre, and was then performed
at Peter sburgh. This opera goes now by the name
of anoth:•r author abroad, who has probably imported it. '
The Emperor had fixed the 25th of this month for a
popular Entertainment, for which preparations are
making, at a vast expense. Rot so mach snow and hail
fell on the preceding evening, succeeded by torrents of
rain on the morning of the 25th, the people whe wete
already assembled in the plain called the Field of
Virgins, were obliged to return home without enjoying
any of the expected sports and amusements. As these
was every appearance of the continuation of much bad
weather, the authorities of the police gave notice that
the commencement of this popular fete should be an-
nounced by the display of white flags on all the steeples.
At night their. Imperial Majesties and Highnesses went
to the Italian o,,era at the great Theatre, where The
Water Carrier was performed. As the rain and tempest
continue today, the popular entertainment aforesaid was
necessarily postponed for some days longer, as well as
the grand fice-works fixed for the 29th, which were to
be exhibited, gratis, by the Empe•oes command. '

PARIS, Orr. sm.
On leaving the Assize Court yesterday, Mr. Canning
proceeded to the Hall of the Pas-Perdus. He stopped
before the monument erected to the virtuous Males-
herbes. M. B,sio, Sculptor to the King, by whom tt.e
two statues, placed on each side of the port ait at the
foot of M. Malesherbes, were made, was presented to
Mt. Canning, who requested the statues to be uncovered,
and addressed some very complimentary speeches to
M. licsio.
