Five imperial ukases , dated March the 5 th , declare not o » ly St .

These Governments are those-of Ekatherinoslaw ( racludin-g the acngadissementof Taganrog ) i of St . Petereburg , Esthonia , Liyoaia , Archangel , Conxiand r Kovvno , Wima , Gtodno , Volhiynda ,

In reply to thd interpellations in the Second Chamber , M . de Manteuftol stated that " the Government would hereafter make communications to the Chambor , to allow that it had not deviated fromite policy . . The fleets which have entered tha Black Sea belong to . Powers with which Prussia lives in peace and good understanding-1 ' Count Pouatales , Attached to the MUiistry of foreign Xflfnics , anu who was ia Loac | on on a special mission , has separated himself from the Government . The moderate Conservative party , decidedly natioaval and anti- ^ Russiaa , has also broken with the Government on account of its weak and vacillating attitude . In Austria , the Llot / cL , so distinguished of late for advociting an Austrian policy , and proclaiming tha necessity of opposing llussia , it need bo , in the fiold , was snsponded by tae Governnaent on the 10 bU instant , for a week .

      These articles of the Lloyd had , especially irritated the Czar , who not long ngo said to the Austriaa ambassador , 41 What do you mean by audi provoking aad iititating attacks ? IF the intention ia to repudiate tlio Russian alliance , tell us bo frankly and boldly . I prefer a promise and intelligible policy ; but when tho day of revolutionary danger comes , you must not bo astoniahed to 300 Russia limit herself to keeping away from all contact , and refuse to shed the blood of her children and expend her treasure to save her neighbours ! " Hence a reprimand , and subsequently tho Buspcnsioo . The editor of tlio Lloyd ., M .

      The excitement in Athens and in the Greek provinces has subside )} ; since it has become evident that , if Jiecessary , the great Powers will interfere , and ia Epirus the Insurrection has no chauce of sirccess . On tlio 27 th of February tha garrison of Arta made a sally , and hiflicted * serious loss on the , besiegers . Tha Greek troops which have * joined the inisurgaate way amount to 500 . Emissaries are extremely active in . tli ^ Morea . bub hav e hitherto mot with little success . The English and Ereuoh vessels now at Pvevesa took provisions iot the garrison of that ) city , which is in no danger . The citadel at Arta . was in the hands of tl » e Turks on the 3 rd , and is likel y to remain so . Joaina is welt provided with all the necessaries for a vigorous defence .

Following in tlie path of nxy predecessors- —faithful , like them , to the Orthodox Faith—after , having invoked , like them , the aid of the Almighty Godwe shall await our enemies with a firm foot , and from what side soever they come , persuaded that our ancient device ; 4 The Faith , the Csar , And tlie Country , will open to as , as it has eve * done , the path of victory .

' The Imperial Court was astounded ; w never suspected that the Czar possessed this biblical erudition , ana could scarcely contain its astonishment ,. It never suspected that his Majesty was so profoundly versed in Scripture or in tho-Latin fathers . " "

      The Czar is described as having become sombra and morose to on intolerable degree . Tlie result is a state of exasperation , which he can scarcely , keep within bounds even in tho presence of the foreign ministers . Another private letter says that he lias been troubled with erysipelas in tho legs , but that in sp ite of the advico of his physicians he persists ia wearing b , is military boots . From the frontiers of Poland ( March 9 Y we learn that several moveable parks of artillery , attachea to the reserve ,, liavo marched for tho Danube . Tho frontier towns of the kingdom are left without any regular troops , and none remain but votoraas and Cossacka .

      A telegraphic despatch from Hamburg reports that " several Bail of tho English Fleet" were signalled at Copenhagen , on the 14 th insir ., und that a frigate had unchored before tho city . Tho latter portion of this despatch ia possible , but tho signals of the fleet must have been a false alarm , since Admiral N ~ apier ' s division left tho Downs only on the aftoruoou of tlio 13 uh . Uusidos his orders do not tuko him to Copenhagen in tho first instance . The Swedish Government bus ordored tlio fitting-out of seven lino-of-battlo ships , with crews amounting to 2807 men . l ' rince Oacar had gone to Carlakrona , to visit tho fleet .

      A letter from Varna , in tho Times , contains tho following passage : — " A report of the speeches of Messrs . Cobdon and Bright at tho Manchester meeting lias arrived here . To any poraon practically acquainted witl ^ Turkey on the Spot , they arc a mass o » i" fallacies , showing extraordinary ignorance of tho eubjoct . One would think that those speeches wore made fifteen years ago , when the empire was in all tho travail of her national difficulties , with the great work of her unfeudalining revolution not yet begam , nor armies un untutored horde , and justice to the Christian population not yet recognised as a sound maxim of policy by her leading statesmen .
