On the 4th of this month, the anniversary day of the
Coronation of the Empress Catherine IF. the Emperor,
at his own private expense, gave to, the inhabitants of
Moscow, at eight o'clock in the evening, in the quarter
of Laferte, a grand exhibition of fire works, at which
the Imperial Family were present, in thebalcony of the
Palace of the Count Golowin. The sky was serene, the
weather warm, and the air perfectly calm. The distance
from the Kremlin to the GolowinFalace being more
than a German mile, it will not appear wonderful that,
by two o'clock in the afternoon, all the streets leading
to the latter were crowded with equipages, and persons
on foot, pushing forward to obtsin good places. Some
marquees were erected in the Pslace for the foreign
Princes, Extraordinary Ambassadors, and Ministers.—
Seats were also erected before the Police for the Corps
Diplematique, on the right and lett of which were
placed scaffolds for five thousand peoplo.

PARIS, OCTOBER 31.
Ina public Journal of to-day, we read the follow-
ing article: " A letter from Brodi, in Galitzia, of date
13th October, 1826, received by a commercial house
in fi Aria, contains the following paragraph : As I sup-
pose that the common fr iends I. R. and Co. were not ac-
quainted with the news of the Russian troops having
passed the Pruth, I beg tb acquaint yon, that the torps of
Gen. Wittgenstein really did pass that river on the 27th of
September, (0.5.) which answers to our 9th October.",
Ai hough die same news was in circulation on the Ex-
change, and although the Jew houses at Brodi, from
their intimate connexion with Odessa, may have faci-,
lities in receiving news from Bessarabia, we cannot
believe that the passage of the Pruth took place at the
date mentioned, but it is very possible that the order to
pass should be sent from Moscow as soon as the Empe-
ror was informed of the pretended acceptance of the
ultimatum, by which the Turks hope to gain time.
