OUR FRENCH ALLIES. 
NEWS FROM CONSTANTINOPLE. 
(I'Y SUBMARINE AND EUROPEAN TELUG It A I'll.) 
We have received, by way of Trieste, tho following de- 
spatch from Constantinople, dated April 3: — 
“ General Cuni'obei't, with 1,100 French troops, has 
arrived. 
“ All the Greeks nro to leavo within fifteen days after 
March 30. 
“ Tho allied fleets, excepting the Charlemagne, are all ut 
Kuvnrnu.” 
Marseilles, Sunday, April 9.— Tho embarkation of 
artillerymen, horses, cai'sons, and guns proceeded merrily 
till day yesterday at the new harbour, from sunrise until 
nightfall. Ten vessels wmi laden in succession, nnd sailed 
os they were filled — without nruking much way, 1 fear, for 
the wind was easterly. — Times Correspondent. 
The Gazette dn Midi of Marseilles of the 8th says : — 
“ Accounts have been received of the death of Colonel 
Dicu. This meritorious officer, who was witli Omar Pasha, 
wus killed in a rcconnaisancc.” 
None of the other Marseilles journals mention this fact. 
Orders have been received hv tho mnritimo prefect of 
Toulon to prepare for sea, with nil possible expedition, the 
Narvnl and the Clmptnl. 
It is snid that tho Frimnnguct will embark Marshal 
St. A maud. 
Constantinople.— The first of the fust French packets 
has sailed. The voyage from Constantinople to Marseilles 
will henceforth ho made in seven days, and news brought 
to London within a few hours alter. As yet, Constan- 
tinople has been nlmost beyond the range of European 
ideas, and a boat making the voyage in 12 days from Mar- 
seilles 1ms been considered sufficient. But now things 
are changed, and tho Valetta and Vectis, if placed on this 
station, will give news within six days in London. It is 
to he wished that means were at hand for tho construction 
of a telegraph to Senilin, there to join the great European 
network.

The prefect, in uniform, received the deputation ; und, alter 
thanking them in the name of Franco for their Into patrio- 
ti.Mii, added— *' Tile Emperor Nupolcon bus desired me to 
inform you that he is most profoundly mov.d nt this ‘proof 
of uflection given to France, but that to him ulono apper- 
tains the right to give n flag to his soldiers ; that thorn was a 
confraternity ofnrma between t Do French and the Algerian 
soldiers, und that, embracing ull of thorn with the same 
sympathy, he intended to send colours to tho native troops 
who were niiirchiug with our bravo army to combat .the 
common enemy.” Tho deputation then decided on send- 
ing the flog direct to his Majesty, und the prefect there- 
upon accompanied the deputation to tho hotel of I lie 
Governor General, who promised to make known to his 
Majesty the loyal wishes of his African subjoin. A deputa- 
tion of four of tho highest Aruhiun functionaries have now

Napoleon. On this national standard, independent of the 
French coat of arms, tho following lines are embroidered in 
K .>ld “ This standard will glitter oil the field of glory, und 
11 v to victory with tho divine assistance. It is the work of 
the Mussulman of Algiers offered to tho native soldiers 
forming port of the French army, marching to protect the 
Ottoman empire. Anno 1270 (1854).” On tho other side

The Fast Day.— [Fiom the Daily News.']—' 1 Sir,— 
As the 26th is set apart for public humiliation and prayer 
would ii be out of place to suggest, that on that day collec-

behalf of our soldiers' wives nnd children. — I am,” &c.,

Collections on the Fast Day. — Sir, — Since tie 
Archbishop of Canterbury lies stated in the House of Lords 
that it is intended that a public fust day should ho held (the 
26th insf.), I hat we may supplicate God’s blessing on the

columns, that it would bo a very favourable opportunity for 
her Majesty to authorise sermons to be preached nnd collec- 
tions niado generally throughout the kingdom in aid of the 
widows and orphan# of soldiers dying in tho war? A fast 
day appeal’s incomplete without some such act of almsgiving; 
and the clergy will, I urn sure, ho as glad to enforce this 
duty from the. pulpit as tho people will bn cheerfully to 
acknowledge it.— Yours, &c., A Country Clergyman. 
J’noro&ED Parish Meetings .— “ Sir,— Allow mo to 
suggest, in tho absence of any other definite plan, that tho 
churchwardens should cull a meeting in each parish, the 
suid parish meeting to appoint certain parties whoso busi- 
ness it would be to wait upon tbn different ministers of 
religion, of every denomination, in their respective parishes, 
and to request of them to preach sermons, open subscription 
list#, make collections in aid of tlie good cause, the proceeds 
of such labours to be paid to the parties appointed to receivo 
the same, und by thorn to district receivers, who would 
again pay the sums over to a general receiver appointed by 
Government, tho Horse Guards, or some other responsible 
body, the same course to bo pursued annually, ns long as llio 
war lasted, and if tho sums collected exceeded the demand 
upon them, tho residua to be applied to the relief of the
