Several journals have spoken of the journey of M.
Amedee Jaobert in such a manner as to encourage a
belief that he is intruitted With a mission to:tbe Porte.
It has even been said that he was appointed French
agnltet Cubstaatimple. It appeals, hoverer, that M.

is serest, that it is much to be apprehended that he
!will not listen to the proposals of either party; anifthat
he will reject every idea of an accommodation with
Russia. Perhaps, however, he may become more trac-
table, whin he learns that the Aisles have testi feted the
limits of Greece to the Mores and t'e Cyclades, as we.
stated efostaight ago. Besides, it must be recollected'
that there is no idea whatever of the independence of
Greece, but of the election of the More. and the Cy-
clades into a government or province, administered by
its own laws, bat still subject to the Porte, and °Ain

*Orders and.coonter-orders have thrown opt
rrtili-
tart administration into confusion. In the space of two.
days al impress has brought precise orders for all
, oar troops to mom; and a telegraphic dispatch has
, glees precise orders to send fresh troops. Already
two of three companies of engineers have been em-
' barbed. As for the actual position of the army, it
istiUhad, and the number of sick is very considerable;
nati, notwithstanding the lies of all kinds,.it is but.too'
itertsia that Ma number of dead 'leech two,thousand
men. Add to deb, tonal and discouragement, ar at
vi'the height, and tiers is only one cry to return to
France.

Although very few months have elapsed since the
departure of this expedition from France. several
valuable relics of antiquity have already been forwarded.
as presents to the friends of !he Gentlemen composing
tit. These are said to consist chiefly of fragments of
small statues, tablets of hieroglyphics, and a few -sped-
.mensof papyrus, reported to have been discovered in a
situation where this kind of record could not have been
expected. We do nct hear, however, of any official
transmission from the esPedititm. beyond. a list of the
bbjects already wtainahle, with ansestimate of_the pro-
bable expense of sending them to France, and the
amount required for the acquisition of some valuable
articles, which the parties have not ventured to purchase
without further instructions fr-m the Government,
.di the Academy of Sciences. In all the letters hitherto
received from the members of the expedition, the
hospitality, of the Pacha, anJ of the different Egyp-
tian authorities, in the places through which they
have passed, has been highly extolled, and the Pacha
has signified his intention . Of sending by them,
on their retorts to France, some splepdid presents,
ao tokens of his desire to maintain a friendly relation
a ith the French Goveroment. It would appear. from
one of the uvoblished letters of M. Lenormand, that.
nothwibstanding the liberal researches of the late
Mr. flait, the British ConsulfGeneral in Egypt, and
the efforts made of lite by Englishmen of refined-
Asste and splendid fortunes, a rich mine of antiquity
yet remains to he explored in the interior. The last
letter received hem M. Champollion was dated on' the
second or third of October, at %filch time, we under-
stand, the expedition had quitted Cairo, for the pur-
pose
of prosecuting their researches at a place some
few leagues distant from that city; but we find no-
thing published from the "pen of this gentleman
of a later date than the 27th of September. when he
was at Cairo, in perfect health, as well as his crslleagues,
a.circum Lances which he attributes in a great degree
to the 'hick and heavy clothing they_ wore, according
to ahe fashion of the country,
.and a hickicept them in
profuse bat beneficial perspirations. The expedition
left Aletheltia on the 14th September, aed proceeded'
on their jOurrol by the canal of Mamoudiem, which
,was cut upon a plan laid down by French engineers, and
.is partly in the direction of the anci:nt anal of Alex-
andria, but much less circuitous. On the 16th M. Chun:*
poltion arrived at the ruins of Sass, where he found an,
Egyptian necropolis built of unbaked bricks and several
•fragments of funeral.emblenns: on passing the gateway
' "f the principal enclosure, he found enormous blocks of
stoneriA) Tees in height, which resembled rocks torn
konslheir beds by some convulsion of nature. In the
centre-4 -thiegie-ntencloture were Constructions of un-
I naked EgYptito' Welts, sixteen inches long, by seven

had ContaiOed the intestines of 11. e deal, and in the
bottom of one of them was discovered a quantity of

mounds; in which were discovered fragments of rose,

not less than 1,440 feet, and the large of 2,160 f et,
has a circuit of More Orin seven thousand feet. The
height of this wall may- beestinsased at eighty feet long,
and it is 54 feet thick. This gigantic circumvallatioa
appeared to M. Champollion to base enclosed only the
principal sacred edifices of Sais. -.All those of whisk
the ruins ate visible were catacombs; and atcotat-
ing t•I 'the information supplied by Herodotus, 111.
Champollion considers the I.•rge enclosure which. he
visited to have contained the t 'nibs of Apries and
the Saitin rings his ancestors. Oa the opposite side
to these he •suppnses to have beat placed the tomb
efi'he usurper Amish. That 'part of the enclosure
which is towards the Nile, may; he imagines, have eon-
isfined.the Templeof Neith. the chief goddess of Sais.
.43 'scifne hundred tobes distant is a third catacomb,
svhfch appears to have been the busial•ilice of persons
of quality. This 'had* already been explored; and,
among other things, was foundshe enormous sarcopha-
gus, composed of grsen basalt, of a keeper of the tem-
ples under Psammetices the Second. M. Champollion
pro fiesta to make frith researches in these places, for
which, however, be requires from the Government ad-
ditional funds. Fronigaiikvshith•bl.Champolliowquitted

he met with nothing of striking interest. On the 19th, al-
though the party were then atu distance of eight French
leagues blood the- Pyramids, they wee forcibly Struck
by their- appearance, and were able To form a correct
idea of:their. risagnituda. On the 20th of September,
M. Champollion,artifed at Cairo, with which city he
appears
.to : beet beets much pleased, although the ac-
counts given of-it •by former travellers had prepared
hitisf.o. cdrifirrent opinion. He seems to have arrived
at &MOAN'S; pill tiaularly interesting to a person curious
of witnessing the habits and cu,toms of a station like
the Egyptians: •It was the anniversaff fete celebrated
by, the Mussulmanssilf honour. Of their Prophet. The
ceremonies observed on this occasion are thus de-
scribed -by M.•Chainpollion :-;." The large square off

handsome tents, within which acts of devotion were
performing. - Iwoher /flocs Maisulmans were sitting

POLICY OF RUSSIA.

PARIS, DiC. Iq.

Two article, inserted in an evening paper, which has
taken up the defames of the Russiancause with pore
seal than skill, have a tendency to mislead the. public
mind still more with respect to the raising ol4he siege
of &liaria, and the retreat of the Russian urniy.—The
cold, the rains, the snow, the difficulty of provisioning a
numerous army, ire, if se are to believe this paper,

of the approaching campaign is not theless 'certain—
operations are tube retains:sewed the moment the sea.
son wil allow.--ahey will be carried no by see, and the
conquest of Varna affords the means., This piaci, by

of the first class. ........s . . : -
.It is but a weekor so since the same j- ulna! spoke
to u: of the taking Of Silistria as inevitabl-, and.of a
winter campaign and an inuprion into the plaint of
Achianocle, not merely as probable, but cert rin—and
as a matter of necessity imposed upon the glory and
the honour of the Rollin arms.
It appeers, however; that the Cabinet of•Petersburgh
anti the Generals of the Emperor Nicholar;,de not
always follow the advice given to thew ar Paris,' and
that events do sometimes belie the views...a.n‘the
hopes of these advisers. - . .. ..
• We thalle attempt to submit to the .pobUc ibtlte ob.

duced the retreat of ti-.e Russian very into Moldiviv.
If the severity of the season and the. arant,of provi-ions
hate heat the sole'occasion of the 'raising of the..siege
of Silistria, why was it roinpetled to abandon its arid.
lery, to leave the caiss-us end carriages, a sacrifice
which. usually .it sitenjaut-.only Nora - deltic T•' The
administration of the: Russian, army would! be tither
very culpable or very unskilful, if it bad not availed
itself of the summer andilleaistumn for tt,etatabiishing
of magazines and the securing of abundance. The
wheat of ()Jesse, of the Ukraine; of Poslolte. of Molda-
via and Wallachia, offered to it inexhaustibleitiourbet.
The same JOurnal must have Inrgottebs. that it • has
'told that the cattle of Moldavis and Wallacitiaolone
furnishes] food for Constantinople, which has a popula-
etion of near 800 000 coals; these cattle, in order te provi-
sion tte Russians, had•merely to cross the DallUiVe..The
triwn of Warne is confided to a garrison of 6,Q00 wen,
left to rely ppna•themselves: It is prtbabty at this
meanest fiesieged, t r at the least strictly blockaded.
Works are not ea•ily emriel on in f.ce d a vigorous
enemy. It is evident to any man who knows the alpha-
bet r f the military art. that this fortress is comm.
mised, and that if the Turks attack it vigorously, and
tile Russians do not k- ep up a bridge on the Dangly',
it must fall before spring. It is on the preservation of
this badge that the fate of the army depends. If the
Russians be entirely repelled to the left bank, they cap-
wit come to t.,e assistance of Varna during the wince?.
except by putting all their force in motion, and making
a new passage across the riser which divides the two
armies—a difficult operation, and one, according to the
