FRENCH PAPERS.

FROM THE lIIIRSSOZI DZS CHANDRA% SIFT* 26.

PARIS, Sara. e.S.
Letters from the Mores, brought by the brig Ruse,
which Jett Kalamata on the 4th September, and Na•
'aria dn the 6th, agree in stating that our army has
found the country in that part less devastated than had
been expected. The lemon trees, the rose, laurels, and
the olives afford a pretty thick shade, and our soldiers
easily procure fresh provisions, but at rather high
prices: the money of France is below par, the Greeks
preferring Spanish coin: this is an inconvenience which
will soon disappear.
According to some letters, the Turks have evacuated
Corun and Medan, after having massacred every body
in those places, of which our troops are going to take'
possession. It is supposed that the siege of Patras will,
soon be undertaken; but to do this, the arrival of Ge-1
neral Schneider is waited for, who was met en the 10th
on the coast of Sicily. A detachment is also to be seat
to Athens.
Ibrahim has signed the treaty for the evacuation of
the Motet ; 15 Egyptian ships had already arrived to
take lia troops on board. •
Tbq Ambassadors of Fralteft.Eagland. and Rmsia
had arrived
.at Navarin. We do not bear that Count'
Capo d'lstria was yet there. •
A considerable naval force is assembled in the bay.
The English, French, and Russian flags are flying,
mingled with those of the Turks and Greeks. The
most perfect harmony appeared to prevail between the
three Powers, paroles to the Treaty of July 6. This
harmony, however, was on the point of being interrupt-
ed. An English frigate entered the bay, having en the
same mast the English and. French colours, the former
being above the white flag. The French officers wanted
to .resentighst they considered to be an insult, by a
similar proceeding; but Admiral de Rigoy would not
Permit is.
It is supposed that the French head-quarters will be
fixed at Navarin, where all the magazines will be placed.
The troops a hick are to form the garrison at that place
will go thither by land. The country about Kalamata
is pretty fine. The shore and the eminences round the
bay are covered with peristyles of verdure, which form
spacious avenues as straight as a line. .
In the day time the piles of arms reflect the rays of
the sun, so that the hot izon appears to be in a blaze.
The heat is great, but the shade renders it supportable.
BUCHAREST, Susr. s am*.
The people of the two principalities of Wallachia and
Moldavia suffer beyond expression from the turn which
thipgs have lately taken. It is impossible to form an
idea of the ravages committed by the Turks in Little
Wallachia, almost the whole of which they fur a time
occupied, taking advantage of the inferiority of the force
under General Gthmar, whose skill was balled by the
state of affaitsa there is, therefore, no reason to be sur-
prised that the inhabitants, having a offered so cruelly,
have lost their confidence and courage. It must be
owned that their opinions are no longer the same as at
the opening Of the campaign. Perhaps Count Pshlen•
alone, the Civil Governor, will be able to revive their
spirits.
The neonate which we receive from the theatre of
war ate by no means satisfactory.
The siege of
.Silistria is nearly raised, or at least so
feebly ;allied on, that the surrender of the place cannot
be expected far a long time.
A great number of workmen employed in the Russian
intrenchments before Schumla have returned home,
and selsat.they relate of the excessive misery which
reigns there creates the highest compassion and despon-
dency
.at the same time; and yet what they report of
the perweterance, courage, and good humour of the
R4Aoan soldiers, .especially the infantry, resembles a
miracle, and clients but excite admiration for such
brave men.
The siege of Silistria seems to be abandoned. General
Roth has been obliged to pent himself beyond the range
of the cannon of the place, Which are admirably served
by the Tusks.

4. Yoe will learn no doubt with satisfaction the man-
ner in which Admiral Roessin entered the port of Rio.
Some bows before passing the forts, the twelve vessels
which composed the division (including the cruisers.
which had joined), with decks cleared for action, ma-
nattered so as to enter in order of battle. The appear-
ance of all these vessels, so well ordered and manouvied
with so much skill, was very imposing. For some hours
after their arrival all business was completely suspended
in the City. as the attention of every one was absorbed
isi the expectation of the result. The French Admiral,
without waiting for explanalion, demanded the rearitu.
Lion, wth inoemnity, of all vessels taken under the flag
of his country. The assembled Chambers were at first
directly opposed to this demand. The French squadron
thes.begau to prepare for obtaining that by force which
was refused on the ground of reparation. A message.
from the Emperor, however, soon terminated the affair,
His Majesty, by his Own authority, permitted the re,
stitutioa of the vessels reclaimed, with indemnity for
the loss sustained, and as cod. staking to thateffect was
sent to Rear-Admiral Roussio, signed by the Emperor
himself.. It is supposed that the Vile de Rouen. %%Weill
brings dispatches from the French Admiral, is charged
with; this important document.i.
'he .captured vessels have been already restored,
sod the endentnity.will also be paid. The only delay
is, as so the mode of .payment, but in all the negocia.
tiORE which ha* taken place on this subject, the must
amicable dispositions prevail.
" The conclusion of the negotiations between the
Brasilia's Minisity and the French Government tele
tire. to the. prize., is now mentioned as certain. The
matter will be settled in three payments, to be made by
Brasil to Flaws before the end of the year 1829. The
first payment will include indemnities to Captains,
Owners, &c. It is probable that a mixed commission
will be appointed to arrange definitively the value of
the prizes, and the amount ut the indemnity."
