We have received the Paris Papers of Monday, and
the Gazette de France dated Tuesday. The intelligence
from Constantinople, received through the medium of
Vienna, and Augsburg, if correct, 'bust be deemed of
importance, as it puts an end to all probability of peace.
Porte, it is stated, has at length thrown off the
mask which it bad worn for so many. montbs,and to have
issued a Proclamation to all the funcaunaries of the Em-
pire,
denouncing its enmity to all the Powers of Citriw-
tesdam, and averring it as a sacred duty tatombat them,
calling all Mussultuans to arms to prepare for a sangui-
nary struggle, and acknowledging that its equivocating
conduct hitherto bad been oolyfor the purpose of giining
time. It is added that after this Proclamation a list of
proscriptions htd been drawn up, embracing 1500
persons, subjects of England, France, and Russia, who
wereto be banished 'from the Turkish dominions. The

Bolivar _

interference of the Charge des Affeires of the Neutra
Powers, wbo had-remoostrated against this breach of
former promises on the part of the Porte, is repre-
tented to have had no effect, and all announced that
the Porte was rushing blind!'" on to its fate.
_We are unwilling to yield implicit credit to this
statement, as the last official advice: from the Turkish
capital were of such a nature as teiafferd no ground of
arprehen.ion that affairs wow then in a critical state.
The recent change in the BritiltiMinistry may probably
(when it is known) produce an alteration in the senti-
ments of the Divan.

It is announced Oat Cadiz was on the eve of being
evacuated by the French. The Spanish troops destined
to garrison that city were already on their march, and
were to be put in possession'af their new quarters on
the 20th of next month. Amongst our extracts will be
found the Answer of the Xing of FRANCE to the Ad
dress of the Chamber of Peers.

As this Paper was going to press we received by
Express the Gazette de F►ar:ce, dated yesterday. The
following are extracts:

CONSTANTINOPLE, J•N. 11.

The report is, that Count Cape dist' ia has arrived
in the Morca, and has Wit proclaimed Chief of the
Greek Gs vernment ; that hiw combined squadron,
joined by some strips of tlleNetherlands is cruizing in
the Archipelago, and has
.gone to the Dardanelles.—
This news, although not confirmed at present, still causes
the Porte to t4ke measures, and orders have been given
to shut the Bosphorus. Several ships of war, which
were at anchor, have gone to reinforce those stationed
at the Canal. The merchant ships ender the European
flag cannot obtain permission to depart without dis-
charging their cargoes. The system of persecution bas
recommenced, and is principally directed apinst the
Catholics and Armenians.—The new money is at a di,-
count at present of £0 to 25 per cent. Ihe esecution of
the Greek banker Reali is•confitmed.

A PioclAmnion has been issued ordering a general
armament. One hundred thousand men are already
on their march, and will arrive in Europe about the
end of March. It is also expected that the Pacha of
Egypt will conform to the orders sent to him to get
truly an Army. Constantinople at present has the
arpearx nce of a large Camp.
