" His Majesty the King of the

•ovince of Buenos

nate the differences which have unfortunately ;risen
between France and the before-mentioned Government, have
appointed, as plenipotentiaries for this purpose, on the part of
the King of the French M. Angel Rene Armand de Mackau,
Grand Officer, &c., and Don Felipe Arana, Minister of Fo-
reign Affairs, for the Governor and Captain-General ; who,
after havirb, reciprocally communicated their full powers,
have agreed and concluded ale following articles :
" The Government of Buenos Ayres recognise the indemni-
ties due to the French who have experienced losses or suffered
injuries in the Argentine Republic, and the amount of those
indemnities which alone remains to be regulated shall be de-
termined by six arbitrators, appointed by mutual agreement,
three by each of the plenipotentiaries. In case of a difference
of opinion, the regulation of the aforesaid indemnities will be
referred to the arbitration of a third Power, which will be
named by the French Government.
" 2. The blockade of, the Argentine ports will be raised,
and the island of Martik garcia will be evacuated by the

French forces, within eight:days after the present convention
shall have been ratified by -Buenos Ayres. 'I

the armament bf the island shall

was on the 10th ,October, 1838. The two ships of vx
long to the Argentine republic, which were captures
the blockade, or two others of the same force and value, will
be placed, with their materiel of armament, at the disposal
of the said Argentine government.
" 3. It, within a month after the ratification of the pre-
sent treaty, the Argentines who have been banished from
their native country at different periods since the month of
December, 1838, shall abandon the hostile attitude which
they have assumed against the government of Buenos
Ayres, the said government, admittirr, the friendly interven-
tion of France relative to those individual offers to grant those
permission to return to their native country whose presence
there is not incompatible with the public security • and the
persons to whom such permission shall be accorded shall
not be molested on account of their previous conduct. As
to the Argentines who are at present in arms upon the ter-
ritory of the Argentine Confederation, the present article
will only apply to such as shall have laid down their arms
within eight days from the date of the official communica-
tion of the present convention, which communication shall be
made to the chiefs through the medium of the French and
Argentine agents appointed for this prirpose. The generals
and chiefs are not comprised in this article, except those
who by ulterior acts shall have rendered themselves worthy

of the clemency and indulgence of the government of Buen
Ayres.

" 4. It is understood that the government of Buenos Ayres
shall continue to recognise the perfect and absolute indepen-
dence of the oriental republic of Paraguay, in the manner
stipulated by,the convention of peace concluded the 27th of
August, 1828, with the empire of Brazil, without prejudice
to their natural rights, inasmuch as the justice, honour, and
security of the Argentine federation require.
" 5. Although the rights and advantages which foreigners
enjoy at present in the Argentine republic are common to all
friendly and neutral nations, the plenipotentiaries of his ma-
jesty the King of the French, and the governor of the pro-
vince of Buenos Ayres, declare that until a treaty of com-
merce shall have been concluded between their respective go-
vernments, French' subjects shall enjoy all the privileges of
the citizens of the most favoured nations.

" 6. Notwithstanding the stipulations of the preceding
article, if the government of the Argentine federation has
accorded rights to the natives of any part of South America
more extensive than those granted to the subjects of the most
favoured nations, these rights cannot be extended or re-
claimed by the French citizens established in the territory of
the republic.
" 7. The present convention will be ratified, and the rati-
fications exchanged in Parts within eight months, or as soon
as possible, through the medium of a minister plenipotentiary
of the republic, who will be accredited for this purpose to the
government of his majesty the King of the French.
" In faith of which the respective plenipotentiaries have
signed and sealed this convention on board the French brig
La Boulonnaisd,.the 29th October, 1840,

" BARON. DE MACKAU,
" FELIPE ARANA."

The Commerce states that a letter had been received from
an officer on board Admiral Mackau's • fleet, dated Monte
Video, October 20, which contains the following passage :
" Admiral Mackau. has been lately to Buenos Ayres, under
the protection of the British flag, because the forts fired even
upon the boats which carried a flag of truce." The same
letter continues thus :—` General Lavalle, the mortal enemy
of Rosas and of his government, and who we have supported
up to the present time, is master of the entire province, and
with our assistance would soon be master of Buenos Ayres,
and the head of the government ; instead of which, being
abandoned by us, and depending upon his own resources, he
must inevitably be conquered by Rosas, who has more troops
under his command than Lavalle."
The Commerce remarks that the treaty signed by Admiral
Macklin, which sacrifices Lavalle, proves that M. Thiers's
policy was the same in America as in Syria, and adds, that
this is the reason that journal feels so profound a dislike for
a man whose ministry produced such shameful results.

NEWS FROM THE EAST.
(From the Supplement to the Malta Times.)
MALTA, JAN. 6.—By the arrival of the French steamer
Tancrede we have received advices from Constantinople to
the 28th ult. from Smyrna to the 29th ult. and from Egypt to
the 26th u It.

The news from Constantinople is very important, but may
be given in a few words :—The Porte requires Mehemet Ali
to give up the Turkish fleet—to reduce his army and navy—
to proclaim the Hatti Scheriff—and then the Sultan will most
probably reinstate him in the Pachalic of Egypt, and cede to
him its hereditary possession for his family. Admiral Walker
had already left Constantinople for Egypt, to take possession
of the fleet.

I Our correspondent from Alexandria says—" that all com-
munication with Syria is cut off by the desert, and that there
is much doubt as to the real position and movements of Ibra-
him Pacha. It is said that he has 37,000 troops under him
in pretty good condition, somewhere in .the neighbourhood
of Damascus, on which city he has levied very heavy contri-
butions. Mehemet Ali had asked Admiral Stopford to com-
municate with his son to announce to him the cessation of
hostilities, and the admiral had kindly consented to place at
his disposal the Hydra to convey the letter.
CONSTANTINOPLE, DEC. 28.—The Supreme Council has
at length decided on the terms to be conceded to Mehemet
Ali ; they are such only as a conqueror would impose on an
enemy completely at his mercy; and the insolent spirit in
which they are dictated may be characterised in two words—
Vie victis f The tenure on which he will be allowed to retain
the Pachalic of Egypt will be no better than that of any other
Pacha of the Porte. He is to have neither army, fleet, nor
revenue ; he is to be assigned a yearly salary, while the Porte
appoints its own mouhassils for the collection of the public
taxes. The Egyptian troops are, to a certain extent, to be
quartered every year in Turkey, and to be replaced by a
Turkish force, which is to be comrnanded•by Pachas of infe-
rior rank, nominated by the Porte. Such part also of the
Egyptian fleet as it shall deem expedient must be delivered,
together with the Turkish, into the bands of Admiral Stop-
ford. The effect of these provisions will, if duly executed,
be to reduce Mehemet Ali in the government, where he has
for the last thirty years enjoyed sovereign and undisputed
authority, to a mere cypher. He would, in short, be placed
by them so completely in the power of the Sultan, that he
would have no security for his' head, which, indeed, there
has already been some question in the council of declaring
forfeit. The Sheikh Islam, doubtless at the instance of Red-
schid Pacha, and in order to silence the supporters of Mehe-
met Ali in the council, openly denounced him. as one with
whom no terms could be observed, and who, by his treason
and his crimes (the most atrocious of which was having put
to death two of the principal Sheikhs,) had forfeited all claim
to mercy. It is evident, therefore, if the four Powers still
lend their assistance to the Porte, that the Pacha has little to
expect from its forbearance. Everything, however, depends
on the view which the former may take of the obligations
they have come 'under to the Sultan by the convention of
July, and which the zealous partizans do not hesitate to affirm
bind them to the prosecution of hostilities a outrance against
Mehemet Ali. Should this construction prove correct, we
may estimate at its real value the ingenious recommendation
of the Powers to the Porte to be satisfied with Syria, while
they profess their readiness, should it insist upon it, to con-
quer Egypt in the bargain.

(From the Manzari Shark, of Dec. 29.)

CONSTANTINOPLE, DEC. 22.—The Port has received
official intelligence, dated the 9th inst. of the entrance into
Aleppo, of Zecheria Pacha and Esaad Pacha. The former
was about to proceed to occupy Damascus, which had been
completely evacuated by the Egyptians, who were in full
retreat by the Mecca road. Ibrahim Pacha, since the fall of
Acre, appears to be exceedingly confused in the heiid. He
orders into his presence officers who have long been dead,
and others he should know to have abandoned him ; besides
which he gives directions so directly contradictory, that
the people about him are often completely puzzled how to
act. Soliman Pacha, on the contrary, it is added, is as col-
lected and cheerful as if nothing had gone wrong. Ibrahim's
Divan Kiatibi, or official secretary, Munib Effendi, who has
left him, arrived here in company with the Tatars who
brought the above intelligence.
Five thousand more troops are going off to Syria as a
reinforcement. The steamer Tahiri Bahiri proceeds to-day
and takes a detachment, besides Hussein Pacha, president
of the Military Council, who goes on a special mission to
organise the re-conquered Sandjaks, and will return shortly.
Redschid Pacha, late of Topkhane, Eyub Paella, and Abd-el
Pacha, who are to serve on the staff of Zecheriah Pacha, the
new Seraskier, who had not yet received news of his appoint-
ment, when he prepared to set out front Aleppo for Damas-
cus. A body of 'Medical men,- with'Dr. Zohrab; we under-
stand, at their head, also go down by the Tihiri Bahiri as
well as several Kiatibs of the army, who should have gone
to Syria in the Seri Pervas.

ALEXANDRIA, Dec. 27.—There has been some disposition
to disturb the peace of the Suez desert shown by the Arabs
of the Mount Sinai and Tor country, probably from want of
occupation. None of the Hon. East India Company's coals
are going from Suez to Cairo at present. The Arabs know
that the mails are not worth robbing, there being nothing of
value to them in the boxes. The Pasha will make the road
safe for travellers, as heretofore: _

There have been a few sporadic cases of plague in this city,
and fears are` entertained of a rather severe plague this season,
that being the usual follower of a great inundation.

The letters from Rhodes of the 20th ult. state that the
English and Austrian fleets, as follows, were anchored at
Marmarizza. The following are the names :—Princess
Charlotte, 104, with Admiral Stopford's flag, and com-
manded by Captain Fanshawe ; Powerful, 84, Commodore
Napier; Rodney, 92, Commandant Mansell; Vanguard, 80,
Commandant Sir David Dann; Ganges, 84, Commandant
Reynolds; Edinburgh, 72, Commandant Henderson; Thun-
derer, 84, ' Commandant Berkeley ; Implacable, 72, Com-
mandant Harvey ; Calcutta, 84, Commandant Sir Lam
Roberts ; Revenge, 78; Commandant W. Waldegrave; Bel-
lerophon, 80, Commandant Austen; Cambridge, 78, Com-
mandant Barnard; Benbow, 72, Commandant Huard;
Hazard, 18.- Commandant Helliott ; Dido, 18, Commandant
Davis. Several steamers were also at Marmarizza. The
Austrian squadron consisted of the Medea frigate. Admiral
Baron Bandeira, and Captain Major Buratovich ; the*Guer
riera frigate, _ Archduke Frederick ; the Leipsic and

corvettes, and Veneto brig

LEGAL CHANGES.—Many opinions have been formed to-
day as to the person who is to fill the situation of judge,
which will so soon be vacant in consequence of the resigna-
tion of Mr. Justice Littledale. One of the most current ru-
mours is, that the Attorney-General, fearing that the pre-
sent administration may soon be no more heard of, and being
heartily tired of the hard work of the bar, intends to claim
the appointment. Others say that the Solicitor-General will
take the legal post ; but then, against this it is argued that
Newark is not sufficiently secure for the government to per-
mit that seat to be vacated. Beyond these two gentlemen
rumour has not gone, but various have been the conjectures
as to the new Solicitor-General, presuming either the Attor-
ney or Solicitor-General should be raised to the bench. Mr.
Erle and Mr. Austin are the favourites.—Correspondent of
the Mies.
