shall pay all the expenses of the aoar, and
renauner0te all the losses sustained by Rus
SIAN subjects; shall comply NTH the cOndii-
tions Of former treaties and grant the en-
UiOlablc freedom Of the commerce of the
Black Sea, and the free passage of the
BOsphorus. At the same time, it declares
that Russia is very far from entertaining
any plans of ambition and that, although
at war with the Porte, she will not depart
from the stipulations of the Convention
(of London) Of 9th July last, and expresses
a confidence that her Allies will not con-
denim her to sacrifice her earlier important
rights, to endure decided offences, and to
demand no indemnity for the most sensi-
bic injuries and repeats that they will al
ways find Russia ready to act with them
in the full execution of the treaty of Lon
don, but not to make any change in it's
nature and effects. Thus far the Decla-
ration.
No authentic information of the actual
invasion of Turkey had been received !;
but it was reported to have taken place
about the 9th April. 1t was also stated,
that while one Russian corps d'armee was
to pass the Pruth into Moldavia, another
was to pass the Danube into Bulgaria, in
Europe, and third to advance from the
East through Turkomania and Natolia, in
Asia, towards the Turkish Capitol. This
arrangement may possibly be the invention
but ifcorrect has threat
ening aspect.
The Turkish Sultan is said to have re-
peated his fixed determination to try the
tag Of sOar with Russia. His Highaess
we think has ere this lowered his crest.
1t appeared from the last accounts that
the mad-cap of Portugal, Don Miguel,
was determined to be King; and that
his subjects were willing to make him
one. As Regent he has been acknowl-
edged by all Europe; but if he assumes the
other title he will become a King " of
shreds and patches"
Nothing new from France, with the
exception that the War Declaration had
not affected the publick stocks, as expect
ed.
In England, a motion to resume the
consideration of the question of ameliora-
ton of the condition of the Irish Roman
Catholics, had been carried in the House
of Commons by small maiority-539
members being present. The subject of
an alteration in the Government of Lower
Canada was before Parliament, and pe-
tition from 10000 Canadians, praying for
the establishment of more perfect repre-
sentation, had been presented. A grant
of $4,000 per ann. had passed the Com
mons in favour of the family of the late
Mr.. CANNING. The British imports from
1925 to 1923, inclusive, amounted to about
$50 millions-the Exports to 225 mill
ions.
Capt. FOSTER, with three vessels, had
sailed from England on voyage of discov-
cry, round Cape Horn.
The English manufacturers in Man
chester were beginning to experience the
effects of the American system, several
hundred weayers having been thrown out
of employment.-Centi
FRENCH PREPARATIONS. In the cham
der Of Deputies, on May 18th, there was
very interesting debate on the Loan of
Eighty Millions, on which the Minister of
Foreign Affairs made speech, showing
the necessity of this measure, on account
of the important notifications which have
occurred in the foreign relations, and
dwelt particularly on the war between
Russia and Turkey-observing, that the
respective situations of the three Powers,
with regard to Turkey, now require some
mutual explanations, on the mode of exc
cutting the Treaty, which is common to
them all. All that we are allowed to
say at this moment is, that the Allies of
the King declare that they are resolved,
like him, to keep their engagements, and
to sustain the objects laid down by the
Treaty of 9th July" M. Bignon opposed
the loan, which he considered unnecessa-
ry. He considered the notion that Tur-
key was in danger of being overthrown by
Russia as exaggerated. The Minister of
Marine, in reply, declared that France was
not directed, as had been insinuated, by
any influence from the banks of the
Thames or of the Neva, but, said he,
Europe is not at peace; it is, therefore,
our duty to enable France to appear in the
attitude which becomes it, if it is to inter-
fere in the struggle" The discussion
was not terminated.-Bost. Pail.
We can state, upon the authority of
gentleman now in France, and who has
good means Conformation, that the French
and English Cabinets are generally con-
sidered to have good understanding as
to the Affairs of Greece and Turkey; but
that there are some chickering's on the
score of the want of reciprocity in the
