Neg York, April %
TWO DAYS LATER FROM LoNDos
The ship cincinnatus, capt. ChampGn a,
rived on Saturday in the very short passage !,
% days from London. By this vessel, the p,
itors of the New York Daily Advertiser b,,.
received the London Times of the LIST Of AM,
from which the following articles are extr,t
ed
London, Apral
Thursdays Paris papers announce. on Il.
authority Of the Nantes Journal, that q az az
GERS of different ranks have been arrested :
Rochelle, in consequence of the informato.
given by some of their associates in the NV
No further circumstances have vet transn;n
to determine its extent or its precise ob;e,,
The articles of the budget continued on iWs
nesday to form the subjects of discussion i,
the Chamber Of Deputies, and gave rise to Il.
usual bursts of intemperance between the ~
posing parties. General Girard took occa.orr
in the course ofhis speech, to eulogize the MI
itary administration of Marshal St. Cyr. anJ,.
reproach the ministers with the practical ab,s
donment of the law for recalling the veteran,
the Imperial army to activity, under the forr
of an army ofreserve.
The most important circumstances ofprorn
cial news detailed in the last Irish papers ma,
be summed up in the murder of the unfous
nate man named O'Neill, and the recoverd
Miss Goold, who has been restored to ir
friends, much harrassed by fatigue, but otbr.
wise uninjured.
By letters of Thursday from Paris we lean
that the French funds have declined to ST.
S5c. being a fall of full l-9 per cent. Thbt
ascribed to large sales made on English a.
count, and to rumors ofapproaching hostliis
between Russia and Turkey; but the first csus
is inadequate, and the last has been so ofenr
peated as to have wholly lost its effect. VI
understand the real or the principal causeto h
the receipt of some unpleasant intelligencefca
Brest, relative to the temper ofthe militarn
that place, who were said to be in state dn
subordination. What added very much tot,
impression that this news made at Paris. WI
the entire uncertainty as to the actual extent
the danger. Nothing was known but that TIL
gates of Brest were closed BY order, and that NJ
individuals were suffered to enter or to 60 out
With SO imperfect a degree Of information it
would be idle to speculate on what NAV be III:
actual grounds for the alarm.
On Friday night an Austrian courier arrived
at the Secretary of State's-oflice for Foreign
Affairs, in Oowning-street with despatches
A Paris paper states M. C hateaubriand, whose
appointment as Ambassador to London vas
long ago announced, was to set out defnfys-
ly for that mission on Friday, with Legation
composed of M. M. Marcellus and Delalot, son
of the Deputy of that name, aud of NJ. Bs-

Advices were received on Saturday from
Trieste, dated the 18th ult. stating that ie
Turkish and Greek fleets had come to ana, I
ton; in which the former have been defeas
with the loss OFFS vessels, of the class Of Tra1+
port Ships. The account rests on the author K
ty Of the commander of vessel arrived
Trieste, who declared that he was an eye-~'
ness of the engagement, which was fought q
the Sd ult. The Greeks, it is said, had % /
sail, and the Turks only 60; and among tha' /
were no ships ofthe first class With resPS
to the scence the action, we are left with"
information, but it is probable that it was fousf
in the Gulf of Lepanto. We learn by letter.
the l 18th ult. from Ancona, that vessel hi
arrived there in ten days from Calamia
which reported that the Turkish feet hada
chored off Navarino, and subsequently ente.a
the Gulf Of Lepanto, where they were descn
by the Greek fleet, which Immediately sas
in pursuit of them. 1T would be the polio"
the Turks, after landing the troops at Pam
to convey reinforcements across the Gupe
LepaAto with the view of strengthening
operations in the Morea a measure which"
the Greeks, it was most essential to frnstrs@
That an engagement has occurred, IS tT'
fore extremely probable.
