We have received by express, this
morning, the Etoile dated yesterday. Its
contenis are of great interest. The in.
telligence from ST. Petersburgh, a
length, clears up all doubts as 10 the
succession Of Constantine to the lmpe.
rial Throne. 1t appears there did exist
O formal document, signed BY Constan-
tine, BY which he renowned, in favor oil
the Archdnkc Nicholas, his right 10 the
crown. When the news reached 81.
Pctcrsburgh, of the death OF the Empe.
ror Alexander, this document, which
had been signed and atiested in tripli-
cafe, was opened and read: but Nicho-
las refused to act upon It's condltiops !;
and instead of placing the crown on his
own head, he, and after him, the whole
Family, the Senate, SC. took the oath of
fidelity TO Constantine. The latter, mean
while, conso ious OF the solemn engage
mens into which he had entered, and
contemplating no violation OF them, re-
NAMED quietly at Warsaw when he
heard of the demise OF his brother. This
explains a circumstance which had ma
turally excited observation, and gave
rise to various rumors. A, length, how
ever, couriers despatched from St. Fc-
tersburgh 10 Warsaw, apprised him Of
the course which events had taken, and,
yielding TO the will Of his august bro
lher, OF the Imperial Family, the Senate,
end the constituted authorities, he con-
scented to ascend the vacant throne. His
presence in ST. Petersburgh was momen-
iarily expected, and the day Of bis arri-
val was to be the only suspension OF that
public mourning which had been order
ed for the deceased monarch.
Thus there is an end TO all conjecture
and doubts as to the person OF the sue
cessor.
Greeks and 7nyks.-Ex,ract from a
private letter received and published at

The most interesting news they contain
is, that pretty warm disputes have lately
taken place between the Refs EHendi

10 the affairs CT the Peloponessus. On

Information that the Captain Pacha, as
soon as he learnt that the Greek feet
under Miaulis had appeared near Misso-
longhi, fastened to leave the coast to
avoid the battle which seemed TO be inn

ed the Sultan, and it was generally be-
lieyed that the Captain Pacha would be
disgraced.
