FRENCH PAPERS.

PARIS, MAY 14.

Letters from Laybach announce, that the Emperor
of Russia left that city on the 14th, to return to Pe-
tenburgh, passing through Bada, in Hungary, and
Warsaw. His biajestrthe Emperor of Austria also
intended to leave Laybach. to return to Vienna.
Private letters from Spain state that Merino has
been taken: his own accomplices delivered him to
General Empecinado.
The accounts from Constantinople and Bucharest,
far some days past, are involved in obscurity. The
reports which aJournal spreads concerning the Morea
may be true, but, at least, the accounts given are full
of exaggerations and evident absurdities. We doubt
the truth of the reported condemnation and execution
of General Elio. _ _

MADRID, MAY 14.
PRIVATE CORIRESPONDZI4CI.—A conspiracy, lately
discovered at Barcelona, has furnished the Govern-
ment with important information on all those which
have hitherto been discovered. A foreign General, in
the service of Spain, was at the head• of it. Be went
to Barcelona disguised as a Monk, but was dis-
covered ; yet the -Magistrates could not arrest him,
and he succeeded in escaping to France. It seems
that a large magazine of arms was discovered (fifteen
thousand muskets, says one account), which were to
be distributed on the day appointed for the execu-
tion of the plot.
MAT IB.—A letter from Cattora, of May 1, states,
that the whole Peloponnesus has thrown off theTurkisb
yoke ; and that there has been a bloody battle near
Ampli, between the Greeks and the Turks, in which
both parties fought with desperate valour; the Greeks
were completely victorious ; their loss amounted to
SOO men, and that of the Tut ks to 6,000.
A Greek woman, widow of a person of distinction,
who was beheaded at Constantinople, accompanied
by her only son, and by her relations and friends ar-
rived at her expense, attacked the Citadel of Ampli,
or Napoli de Romanica, by sea, and made herself
mistress of it ; while three legions of cavalry ad-
vanced by land and occupied the town, after having
defeated the Turks with 'great slaughter. Another
battle, equally desperate, and with the same success
to the Greeks, is stated to have taken place in the
beautiful valley of Tempe.
A letter from Constantinople, of the 25th of April,
gives a dreadful picture of the state of that capital.
The insurrection of the Archipelago is confirmed;
the Porte is particularly alarmed at that in Candia.

LISBON, MAY 5.

The Regency of the Kingdom, in the name of the
King, Don John VI. gives notice, that the General
Extraordinary and Constituent Cortes of the Portu-
guese Nation, decree as follows :

" The Cortes, considering the obligation of cementing mote
and more the union of the Portuguese of both hemispheres by
means of their political interests, and considering further, that
no Citizen can acquire the sublime character of Deputy to the
Cortes unless it be conferred on him by the votes of his consti-
tuents, in whom the Sovereignty essentially resides, declare and
decree as follows :

" Art. 1. All those Governments shall be considered as legi-
timate which are established, or shall be established, in the
transmarine Portuguese Provinces, and the adjacent islands, to
embrace the sacred cause of the political regeneration of the
Portuguese Nattion ; and all those persons shall be declared to
have deserved well of their country, who have meditated,
planned, and executed this regeneration."
The other Articles contain directions for the elec-
tion of Deputies, and promises of assistance to conso-
lidate the union of the transmarine Provinces with

the mother-country.
The Diatio of to-day contains an invitation to all
good and loyal Portuguese to contribute as far as
lies in their power, by voluntary donations, to defray
the expenses which will be occasioned by the re-
joicings on account of the acceptance of the Consti-
tution by his Majesty, and also by the arrival of his
Majesty and the Royal Family, the Public Treasury
being hardly able to meet the current expenses.
