" A letter from' Vienna, 2ll.h nil., in the Pout Ampt Gazette of Fraukford, aaya : ''It ia again poait'vely aaaerled, and on good authority, that the great Towers have resolved to occupy (he military fM.antif'.'ie Tnrkish ?uticr of lh Debriidioha, to secure ?ty jairhrt (he incursion uf the Russians, ami iiwlrit 'L'.ia bnvo been sent to (Uia effect to Cou.u Coroninl,' at ' Jumj.'

Tim barrack at Smyrna bare been convened into hospitals, and will be provided with 2,000 beda. Intelligence from Odessa, of tlie 30th January, confirm the report of the illness of the Grand Duke Michael. He ia lying ill at Cheraon, where the Governor-General hoi gone to visit biin. The Irand Duke Nicbolaa left Slmpheropol for Sevoa topol. The Ruasiaua were experiencing a want or provisions. Accouul from arrow, under (lute ot yesterday, atate that the Russiau forcea in Foland were concentrating. The troops on the Gallician frontier had been ordered to retreat into the in terior. The Pari correspondent of the Daily Netce iwya : "I learn from a credible eourcs that tbe Emperor lately told tome general officer that, un less something unexpected should occur to alter present airangementa, a general aaault upon Sovaa topol wouM be made tlie J 'Ah rnatcnt.

'" Some important changes are expected in the or. ganization of the camp at Boulogne. The report waa current some time ago that a great army was to be formed, to be placed in aoch a position that in esse of need it could 'operate on any part of th middle of Europe. J It is now said that this army is lo be composed of 100,000 men; that it will He divided into two carp ftrmee, and that tbe bead quarters of one corps will be at Lyons, and (boa of the other, aa at present, in the neighborhood of Boulogne. It ia added that, in order not to rouse tbe jealousies of 'the German Confederation, the army will make Ua way to the frontier of Rbaaia by way of Piedmont,' Lomoarbv, and Vienna, and that it will march aa aeort as it shall became evidsn in the course af the conferences at Vienna, that Ruaia wee not sincere ia her offer to accept tbe FourPoint"!

SPAIN. The Madrid journal, of the 85tb continue to apeak of Miuiateriala modificat'ona aa probable. The Etpima msutioua a report that a bug .urn belonging to the Carlisle bad fallen iuto tho hands of the Government, but it givea no particular. Th Clamor Publico say., that lb man recently arreted who accused Mr. O'Shea, the banker, of having given money to a Carlist conspiracy, has admitted that his accusation was totally fulic. Th same journal says that some capitalists had offered the new Minister of Franco a loan of 40, 000,000 reals. It hua been reported that the Gov ernment intended a loau of 40,000,000 real., but there is no truth in the report. . Several French gendarmes have arrested four teen Carli.ls, secreted near tbo ftpanii-h froutier, prepared to attempt an inviision in Navarre. On the 3rd insl. the Spanish Cortes voted the first basis of ths Constitution the nilional sovereignty. On the 5th M. MaHn presented a Ilill to the Cortes, authorising the complete sale of the Church pro perty, r.4ir. A d'spntch from Hume, under date of June .10, slc'.zx II'j! at the laal eoim'ttnrium, the F'nx: aniijiuueed that all lua auviea, rxhurtatioiia, an notes, to the King of Sardinia and his M n i hud prood fruitless. In ipii of the vou' .: 'kI and crnvantion, that Government had infringed upon the right of the Church, and contemplates the confiiscation of ecclesisstical estates and the abolition of ecclesiastical orders. Three measure tbe Pope coudemned, and pointed out the judge ments of councils for such oflonces. Th greatest activity ha prevailed, of late in th military arsenal of Turin. On the 29th ulU 10 Minie rides were distributed lo every company of the garrison. A eimilur distribution was also to tnke place among the diflereut corps of the army quartered in the pro inces. No communication bud yet been addremed to tbe colonels of the regi ments relative to th expedition to the Crimes, but prrparatoua weie actively proceed ng, and warm cloth ng waa being made up with all possible buate for the soldiers. A few dnys before a deputation of officers waited on the Minister uf War, and re quested to form a part of tbe expedition. The Minister replied that they need not be afraid of wanting opportunities to distinguish themselves, and recommended them not to be too impatient. A letter from Milan, of the 23rd alt., in the Ger- man Journal, of Frankfort, says: One evening lust week a commissary of police presented himself in the Caxino Nohili, whieb is frequented by Austrian officers, and a -ted one of the officers to place at hladi.posal 20 men to arrest a band uf conspirators, who were, at the moment, assembled in a neighboring house. At the bead of the uien he went to (he house, and called out for the door to be opened ; but no reply being return ed, be caused them to be beateu open by tbe butt ends of the muskets. About 20 of the person as- Hembled were arrested. At tlie same timo a num ber of papers sod document were seitsd ; they proved that a secret aicicty f about 00 persons existed, and that it had prepared a plan of insurrec tion. Amongsl the tnembsr of the society are ix petfcon wbq are in the ervice of the Government, and on that account they will have lo expiate everely their crimuul enterprise. It i not yet known whether or not the plot has other ramifi cations. ' , '' RUSSIA. A lelegraphio cUpalch, dated St. Petersburg. Jan. 27, and publinhed in th Daily Ntic$, tates that M. Boulkoffhas been appointed "secretary of the empire." The Indtpcndtnce Beige say : We have received account from St. Petersburg, stating that since the dy hostilities broke out be tween Russia and Turkey, the Government never displayed so much activity ani vigour for the prosecution of the war a at tin momont. The military administration at St Petersburg has just couluded contracts for tbe supply of iinmenee quan tities of materiel of war, principally lead, iron, copper, and brass. Tbe contractor have solemnly engaged lo deliver three article at the end of March, agreeing topay a heavy fine for each day delav. Instruction, moreover have been sent by the Minirtry of War to all the officer, of th Government, directing them lo give every assist ance in their power to secure the delivery of those articles at tbe periods and iu the different places mentioned in the contracts. The Government has also established a new body of administration, who duty it is to superintend and accelerate the conveyance of warlike stores to th different corps in the field. That conveyance is mostly effected by contractor, who are paid in proportion to the weight of tbe aiticlea, the distance, aod tbe atate of the road, Every day long convoys of sledge, drawn each by three bones, may be seen traver aingthe country, gaided by post placed at long interval, from each ether.

Th reconstruction of the English Ministry, with Lord Pslmcrston as its chief, had giren general eatistaction, both in England and in France. It waa heped thnt that noblemen's accession to power would have an important influence on tl.e peace conference at Vienna. From a note addroated by M. Drnyn D. S. Huys, th French Minister of Foreign Affair, to Barun Monteufel, it would seem that the Allies are determined lo leave Prussia no option but either lo accept ths conditions of the treaty of tho 3d Decem ber, or to exclude her from all share in tlie Vienna eonfersnce. The general opinion ia that she will side si once with Russia. Ilullund is said to have formally joined the alliance, and Spain and Portu gal are expected to follow in her wake. From some opinion of Lord Palmerston's, quoted In a letter of one of our correspondent, it appears that the new English Premier entertain a con viction that Europe is now entering on a great gen eral war.

Tlie formation of a new English cabinet, with Lord Puhnerston at its bead, is considered th most important feature in the news from Europe. Hopes are now entertained by the English penpl that a vigor and eucrgy will be given to tlie conduct of the war in the Crimea, which will ensui e glsrious results, if not its speedy termination. Lord Pal mereion is considered the man to conquer a peace from Nicholas of Russia. MARKETS.
