Faou FRANcE.-Our papers by the

inc. The PARIS dates are to the l7lh inclu
,;ye. The formation of the new ministry

Public attention in France was chiefly
directed to the situation of affairs al Lyons
growing out of the distressed condition OF the
working classes. All the papers there were
commenting freely upon.the state of things
and it was pretty plainly intimnted that a
popular disturbance would take place.
One paper the repOrtew says that the
public mind was at that moment occupied
with fatal apprehensions and sad presenli-
ments. The authorizes had also taken the
alarm and had adopted precautionary meas
ures, such as reinforcing the posts; IN
creasing the patrols distributing cartridges,
supplying the forts with provisions and mu-
nitions, and ordering the troops into quar-
tiers. No outbreak had as yet taken place
and it was hoped the distresses OF the poor
could not lead them to the commission lot
any acts of violence.
Accounts from Constantinople to the 2lst
of March, speak very gloomlly of the tinan-
cial and commercial crisis. A large house
at Trebizond had failed whose business re-
lations were with Persia, Armenia and the
Indias. The Persians and Armenians were
accordingly Withdrawing from trade. Sew
eral European houses had sustained severe
losses.
GRRECE.-Accounts from Athens states
that the King frequently presides at the
council of state, the sittings of which he o.
pened in person with an address in the
Greek language which produced happy
effect upon the audience.
The Greek papers state that three sch'rs.
and steamboat are building at Poros,
They are intended to run regularly between
Pirea, Syra and Smyrna, and would be
ready in the course of month. They
were to be under the charge Of the Drec-
tor General of Ports.
TURKEy.-Letters from Egypt announce
the breaking off of the negotiations between
Mahmoud and Mehenet Ali. The Otto,
man commissioner left Cairo very mucl
dissatisfied, and il was feared at Alexan-
dria that the breach between the Porte AM
the Viceroy would now be wider than ever
Mehemet Ali himself appeared TO partak,
of this feeling us he was neglecting nothing
to reinforce his army at Syria and th'
strength of his warlikc material.
SpAIN.-The news from the Frontier
possesses very little interest.
