RECENT CHANGE OF MINISTRY.

PARIS, Dec. Dec. I7.—The Monitewr this morning was
eagerly looked for. It was expected that it would con-
tain the nomination of the new Directors-General of
Police, of the Douanes, of the Pones, and of Registra-
tion. On the filling up of these subordinate but very
important departments, it will a good deal depend wiie-
ther the Royalist party, which drove out the last Mi-
nisters, will end their support to those who have suc-
ceeded them. Baron Mounier, M. Dupleix•de-Mezy,
Chabrol Crousol, and M. de Saint Cricgorlio respective-
ly filled them, have given in their resignations. Among
the on-dits current with respect to their successors, we
have heard their offices are disposed of to Delalot, Vas-
blanc, Castelbajac, and Berlin de Vaux, last year mem-
ber for Versailles, and one of the proprietors of the
Journal Des Debate. 111. Bennoit, the Director-General
of Indirect Contributions, will alone, of all the directors,
remain in his present office.
The Prefect of Police of Paris, Count Angles; re-
tires along with the Directors, to make room for a
friend of the new Cabinet. M. Rayneval has likewise
retired, and has been offered the embassy to Berlin, as
successor to M. tie Chateaubriansi. Reports dispose
variously of the latter, but some appointment of int-
pittance, itis said, will be found for him. Amid these

LONDON:
FRIDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 21, 1821.

Paris papers to the 19th instant have arrived this
morning. By the Bulletin of the Chamber of Depu-
ties of the 17th, we learn that there is not yet any
day proposed for a public Sitting. On the same day
the new Ministers took possession of their Hotels.—
M. Angles, the Prefect of Police, having given in his
resignation the preceding evening, the administration
of the office is confided in the interior to M. Parisot,
the Chief of the first division.

An article from Trieste, of the 3d of December says,
"We have letters from Calamatta, of the date of the
10th of November. The affairs of the Greeks appear
to go on a little better. The Senate of Calamatta has
transferred its seat to Tripolizza, whence it publishes its
orders in the form of a Senalus Consultant. The troops
which had been before Tripolista, are gone in a great
measure to beseige Patras, while 8,000 men proceed
to the Isthmus of Corinth to engage Chourselaid-
Pacha, who has been completely beaten by the Greeks
and Suliotes. Ali Pacha of Janina has sent consi-
derable subsidies, amounting, it is said, to two mil-
lions of sequins, to the Senate of the Morea. Two
Albanian Chiefs carried the document of the donation
and a letter of congratulation to the Senate. The letter,
we are assured, was signed Constantine. The step of Ali
proves that he regards the cause of the Greeks as view_
rio us. Odysens carries on an active war against the Turks
in Epirus. Ile has taken many convoys destined for
the Morea. Some vessels arrived to-day from Corfu-
have spread a report, that the fortresses of Motion,
Coron, and Napoli of Romania had capitulated. The
inhabitants of the lonian Islands oppose the disarming
ordered by the Governor. There bad been skirmishes
against the English, and the peasants have occupied
the mountains.

New York papers arrived this morning to the 25th
of November, from which we extract the following

[FROM TN% NATIONAL INTELLIOENCER.]
TUN SEVENTEENTH CONGRESS.
Our readers may have some desire to know how the
present House of Representatives is constituted, re-
latively to the last. An examination has been made
with a view to see how many of the present Congress
were members of the last Congress; and the following
is the result: The whole number of members is 187.
There were four vacancies to be filled, two from the
States of the Main, one from Vermont anti one from
Kentucky. Of the remaining 183, ninety-one were
Members of the last Congress. This is an unusually
large proportion of new Members.

FROM THE PENSACOLA FLORIDAN, OCT. 29.

HIGHLY IMPORTANT.--In conversation with one of
the gentlemen affording the news from Vera Cruz, we
learn that Russia and Great Britain are both in treaty
with the King and Cortes, for the purchase of the
kingdom of New Spain. Great Britain bad \offered
fifteen millions sterling!!! There was nothing said
of the Russian proposition'. The Deputies of New
Spain has protested strongly against the whole proce-
dure, not consenting to hear any propositions from
either power. They had sent advice, giving this in.
