We received last night the Paris papers of Sunday. The Journal'des Dehats treats us at length to the parmphlet of M. de CHATEAUDItIAND on the abolition of the Censor. ship. This measure again opens the columns of the jour- nals to the ex-Minister; but biz pen will be less formide ble since his services have been pensioned. He must now always vvrite with the fear of losing 20,000 francs before his eyes. The Constilutionlzel has the following paragraph, of which we find no confirmation in the other papers: There is a report in circulation, that the Government " has received this evening the important nlews that the Turkish squiadron has been cotnpletely destroyed, and that the brave CANARIS has blowti up the ship of the Capitan Pacha, itn which service he wvas hiinself de- stroyed." The following are extracts (From The ArIoniteur ef Siinay, October 3.) The official part contains a Royal ordinance to the followiDg effect :_ " Charles, &c. Desiring to provide for the necessities of the service in our for- tresses, both in our kingdoom and the colonies, we have ordlained- "Art. 1. The complete establishment of the staff of our Royal Corps of Engineers, which had been temporarily reduced to 350 of- ficers during the changes of the occupation, shaU be raised again to 400 officers, not including theGencral officers, inspectors of that arm. This complement, however, shall take place graduaUy from year to year, according to thc provision made on the subject in the budgets of the 6uccessive years. "Art. 2. Specifies the -number of officers of each class to be employed. (Non-official part.) AUGSBURG, SErT. 25. We receive by the mail of this day a letter from our correspou. dent at Trieste, who informs us that the declarations of the Captains of vessels coining from the Archipelago, and who have successively cast anchor in the port of Trieste, all agree that the Capitan Pacha, naving a rcisiprea a ilnuo5-. *hs ol,c of Samo., hast hepn Aimnr. ously repulsed, and that, being afterwards attackced by the Greek fleet, a most desperate battle ensued, in which the Turks sustained |a complete defeat, their Admiral having lost his life a little after the commencement of the action. "However, nothing official has been published on an event of such great importance; all that we know is, that the Austrian Authori. ties of Trieste have received despatches from Corfu, wlich they im. mediately forwarded to Vienna. " BERLIN, SEPT. 23. ALetters from Warsaw, of the 14th, say that the Russian Senatoz NovosilzofFhas died in that city. (From the Etoile, dated Mfonday, Oct. 4.) "CONSTANTINOPLE, SErT. 2. The agitation which had manifested itselfamong the people and the Janissaries seems now to be allayed: we hear no more of a change of the Ministry, or of the fall of Ghalib Pacha. It is even report- ed, that the Sultan, being lately urged by the Selictar to dismiss the Vizir, replied, I There is time enough to think of it., " There is no official account of the evacuation of M1oldavia and Walachia, but it is not doubted that it has taken place. " The corvette which is to convey Al. dce Ribeaupierre to Con- stantinople has arrived at Odessa, and preparations arc malcing on board to receive him. " The inaction of the Mussulmen in Epirus and Albania is ex- plalined by a plan they are said to have formed, not to act till the Egyptian expedition arrived in the Peninsula. It was reported at Zante, that Maurocordato, pursued by his own countrymen, had quitted Mllis8olonghi, and taken refuge in Anatolfca; but the per. son who sends this information is far from answeTing for its truth. " Al r. Tumer, who is td hare thc management of affairs after the departure of L,ord Strangford, arrived here five days ago. PARIS, OCT. 3. The Augs7bur GaLcite of the 28th of September announces, that all the letters from Sinyrna of the 22d aiind 23d of August, confirm the news of thc advantages obtained by the Greeks off Samos. They have burnt a Turkish frigatc of 46 guns, taken two brigs and a corvette, aid destroyed 60 tramsports. A late despatch affirms that the Capitan Pacha, pursued by the Greeks, lias taken refuge at Boudrown. Ictters from Navarino are of the 31st of August: they say the plague is on board the Egyptianfleet anchored at Rhodes." LONDON, WIRDNESDAY, OCTORER 6, 1824.
