We have received the Frentch morning antl evening papers of Tuesday. The former contain no political news of the least interest; but from the EFoile we quote the fol- lowing extracts as worthy of public attentiom. Some con- siderable sstccess!(if not repeated victories) of the Greeks would appear to be placed beyond question:- [From the ifEtile, dated Oct. 13.] " CONSTANTINOPLE, SEPT. 11. T here is a report of a great earthquake, which is said to have destroyed a great part of Jerusalem, ruined the mosque of Omar, the ancient tenmple of Solomon, and entirely overthrown the Holy Se- 3pulchre. " The firman not to frequext certain promenades, was an order ill explained of liia Sublimity, who had seen groups of men and vwomen mixed together. The Sultan had ordered that each sex -hould be at aU times separated by proper intervals. " It is affirmed, that two 111assegis, officers of the interior, are gone to put to death the Capitan Pacha. The Capitan Pacha has caused Ahmud Bey, captain of a frigate that was burnt, to be be- headed: this officer had acquired a reputation for bravery and abili- ties. The Capudan Bey itas alsa been beheaded by order of the Capitan Pacla. " This Admiral, who is said to have only 1 1 vessels left, has ef- fected a junction with the squadron of Hussein 13ev, composed of 17 -vessels from Constantinople, which was with the Egyptian fleet. Chousren Pacha, it is said, has proceeded against Samos with these 28 ships of war. " The transparts are not mentioned. The Greeks have had an action at Athens with the Turks,in which they at first had the advan. tage, but in the end the Turks repulsed them. I It is said that some Greek partisans have attacked the adlvanced osstr of the troops stationed at Larisaa. " The Supreme Council, which, it is expected, will soon be formed, will be formed of four Ulemas and seven Ridgials, and the Sultan wiU be President, "MADRID, OCT. 7. "The King aDd hlis angust fainily still remain at- the Escurial. "His Mlajesty has otdered, that in all the funeral ceremonies to take place in the kingdom in memory of Louis XVIIIL, the head of the august House of Bourbon, every thing shall be done in the same manner as on the death of Louls XIV., by order of Philip V. his grandson. *- ne jz. cr-cire accompanies thie news of the dealth of Iturbitle with the flldowing teftctilogs:- " ' lIet us observe how Divine Providence miakes criminals atone for their crimes on the very spot where they have cormmitted them. otina and O'Donoju, anA the traitor of Iguala, had as unfortunate an end as Iturbide. Riego receivedt the punishment of' iis crimes in the capital where he had commnitted so many excesses. ' ' The opinion of those wh;o thouglt that Iturbide acted by the or. dXerr of the Spanish illonarch, was as strange as all the ideas which originate in radical and liberal h cads. Ferdinand VII. never had rc- course to these shameful mcans-hc never lias employed a crimi- nal hand even to do good.' "O On tbe 1st ofOcatber,the annivcrsary of the King's deliverance, aix companies of Royalist Volunteers of the finest appearance set out for the Escurial with a squadron of the same corps. Thc fai.hfbul subjects havc had tite honour to guard thieir Sovecreign. Thc King mlade tclent exercise in his presence. " The news from) Peru by way of Buenos Ayres continues to be very satisfactory. The most perfect union preyails amnong tlhe coin- 3nariders of the royal armie3, whatevei may have been said by the English journalists, whose bad faith is palpable. " The letters and journals front Brazil shnw that great fears are fe't respecting the intentions of the motlher country. In fact, great activity is observable in the Portuguese navy: therc are at this mo- ment in the portof Lisbon, three ships of the lise, four frigates, six corettcs, and several brigantincs, perfectly cquippedi. " PARIS, OCT. 12. LIetters from Rochefort say, that the flcbe corvette, the Dragon brig, Bsesanae gun brig, and the .lfornus schooner, sailecl fro,n that port on the 4tit, under the orders of Captain Latyrete, for the coast of Africa, where they will be evoployed in repressing the slave.trade: they will find there the AThrseouin brig, and the Potrede schooner, enmployed in the eatne servicc. "1 PosTscrtPT.-We receive foini Constantinople the following wews, the authenticity of which we c mn warrant:- " CONSTANTINOPL,E, SEPT. II. A letter fromnStancho, of thc 2.5th of Ang)ast, mentions a new action between thc two fleets on the 22d and 2.3d, likewise to thc advantage of the Greekcs. A second letter from the same place says, that the Egyptian expetlition has joined the Capitan Pacha. " Acording to authientic statemnents, thc losses of the Alussulmen bef6re Samos, in a few dAys, wvere very considerable; of 64 tran. aporta,only five or six cscaped. " The number of Turks who perishted by sea on the shlores of Samos is made to ainount to 17,000 men. A corvette, with 400 men oat board, was captured by the Greeks and carried into Hydra. " In short, the situation of thie Grecks seems now to be every where the strongest, and if they know how to profit by their advan- Sages at Samlos against the Egyptian fleet, the fifth campaign will also eud to thieir advantage. " On the oontinetit the Gr'ceks havc rushed parties to the gates of Larissa- " The Capitan Pacla is said to have withid(rawni 17 vcsscls be- longing to the imperial marine front tim c Egyptian fleet, and te have returecd towards Famos. It is reported that a Capidgi Baschi lhas been sent to fetch the head of the Admiiral, and that the Pachia of Scio is intended for Jligh Admiral. ' SrPTE3113ER 17. ; The Grand Vizier Ghialib Pacha was deposed on the l4th, in .he morning; lie retires to GJallipoli. The Pacha of Silistria suc- ceeds him. The deposition of thIe hlufti is expected. " PELAIS, OPPOSITE STANCtIO, SErT. 8. ;4 On Sunday, the 5th, the Greek fleet appeared to the number of 74. Nine fire-ships were launclhed. The Egyptiati fleet imme- eliately got under sail, and commenced its fire. Tke Greeks dread nobody. There is much reason to fear for tlhe gyptian fleet."
