CONSTANTOOPLR, Aran. The festival of the Bairam has been celebrated in the greatest tranquillity ; the Sultan made his entry into the Seraglio, accompanied by all the great men and the regular troops. The inhabitants of the Seraglio do not appear to be at all uneasy about political events, or to fear the en; anee of the Russians any more than a sim ple insurrection of the Greeks. Their confidence, it is true, is founded on the notion that the Russians will only occupy the principalities, and that they would be afraid, if they adr►anced any further, of some collision with the other Powers of Europe.' All the Russian subjects had left the capital some days ago. The Seradcier Paella has given to the Sultan a grand dinner, and, since then, a fete to the regular 'troops, the expense of which is estimated at 600,000 piastres. That on Tilt:away, the 12th of June next, at One o'Clock, they will be ready to treat with such Persons as may be willing to Con tract for supplying his Majesty's several Dock Yards, with CO LOURS. TURPENTINE, and INGREDIENTS for making I NT, &c. A Form of the Tender may be seen at this Office. No Tender will be received after One o'Cleick, un the day of Treaty, nor any noticed, unless the Party or an Agent for him attends.

" Last Sendai is courier arrived from Vienna, with dispatches for Government, and for the Austrian Mi nister. It is generally believed they are of ite most disagreeable nature for the rebels. It is affirmed, that the Austrian Government signifies to Don Miguel that it will never acknowledge any other Sovereign than bon Pedro and his daughter Maria TI. It is also' as sured that Prince Metternich has written to Count Villa Real, praising most highly Ills conduct. and advising hies to resist constantly all rebellious acts against the only legitimate King, Don Pedro. This may be and it is so I dare say, but the Austrian mental reserve will be shereintroduced somehow. • ".s Several persons employed by Government, and dissenters to the acclamation, had asked for leave of absence, and among them several Noblemen, who after wards were • induced to remain on account of the bad effect it would have abroad for Don Miguel ; however, same of them have, in the course of the week, received orders to use their leave to go abroad, and among them M. Candid() Xavier, the last Minister of War, by ad ;Merin, and Director of the Royal Military College. This astonishes every one; for be.ides having prepared the way pretty well in his ministerial capacity for what is passing now, and his having been Count Subserra's intimate anti ablest assistant in his premiership, he might still prove useful with this party, as he has been with all others; however, he goes by the packet; and • may he employ his talents in England (for he certainly it a very cleier officer and keen statesman) to the ad vantage of his country and legitimate King " We learned soon alter the sailing of the packet last week, that Colonel Pinto Pizarn, General Saldanha's assistant Minister, .was shipped off for England in.a merchantman. Government attached such importance so his departure, that the Magistrate Neto, who ern• barked hissa k 4ollowed the vessal,an a barge with shims, astir as theliar, and waited till. he saw the vessel out of sight, an authenticact of which was drawn up there, having for witnesses the tower of Sr.. Julian and that of , irugin, Ind thiy Could not siin, some of the rowers Of the barge signed for them. This act was presented to Do'n Miguel immediately after by the same Magistrate, and it is said that he is to get a crachat fur the achieve. All the doubts raised by a Journal, respecting the authenticity of the Act of abdicAtion.of Don Pedro, are destitute of foundation. The attested copy, which we published on ' the 15th, was sent directly from kin de Janeiro to his Majesty's Government, by M. de Gabriac, who had it hirbself from the Ministry of his Majesty the il Emperor of B ras il . • _ - - It is aCfirnied, that the Minister, of all the Power! accredited to Ole Regent of Portugal, hate just received order); to quit Lisbon.

That every legislative enactment affecting . the agriculture of the country, or the commerce of grain, .should havifor its sble object the attainment of the .most secure, steady, and abundant supply possible. ' 2. That, in ; order to accomplish this object, means vritldiffetent have at different times been proposed ; on one side it has been 'maintained that a free com mercial intercourse with foreign countries should, for this purpose, be :divvied ; on the other, that the exclu sive. encouragement of British agticolteve • has. been deemed the more effective and the safer policy. • . S. That our laws hive, for rier two hundred years, been framed upon the principle of the latter system above described. ' • 4. That the most abundant supply, with the feast • r flactuatiots of 1 p rita b tanst avitna burplus for exportation, has occurred in Omar years in which .the most cllcLtite protection has been greets to British agriculture. 5. That the Act of 18/4 !; prohibieing foreign grain untii•Ni plaic e of wheat rises tio las. and other grain in proportion, b e ts teen followed by a price of 6.51. for wheat, calculated upon the average it the twelve years that have since elapsed, and of 57se upon the average of the last eight, with a ainrilar. redaction in the price of all other sorts of grain. • • •,; 6. That though this comparatively low price, in re ference to the preceding twenty, years, is chiefly 4Ltii. butable to the increased value of the 'currency by ti e Act of 1819, it 'affords abundant proof that the Ord ducers of grain can no more uphold the price, by intans of the prohibition to foreign imports, than the.products of any other article could save themselves from tbe de pression of price which that Act has occasioned in all : -. • e the products of industry. 7. That the competition of the British growers4cCrn with each other has, in general, kept their profittbelow the profits of capital and industry devoted to other par suits; and capital invested in land retui ns in general a lower interest than when otherwise.employetl. . 8. That the cultivators of the United Empire have, from its soil and climate, from their own skill,and in dustry, and facility of conveyance, the means of render ing, in our markets, an 'abundant supply cf gram with lea laboor, or, in utherwrirds, at a less .labour price, than most of the countrits from whence ifoseign supply monist be drawn. .. . • . ,P, That for many years tit; money price in England Was it or below the . Continental price. 10. That the present excess of price over the 'Con tinental price is owing to artificial •ciuses—chiefly taxation. 11. That taxation adds to the Costs of prod49oe; and the additional charge so crested must be pud e Of the production will be iliscontinsled. 12. That the burden of taxation has been further in creased. in the ratio of the ,increased value of mu Ley by the Act of 1819. IS. That though the price of grain is thus forced be. yond its natural level—the level of the Continent —lt e growth of the United Empire is in ordinary years fully equal to the demand ; and that,. wider these circum stances, the introduction of foreign grain must even tually displace an equal quantity of home growth, add ing therefore nothing to'the aggregate supply, rendering a portion of it very precarious, annihilating the capital employed in the production of the corn so displaced, and depriving of occupation such a number of husband. men as the cultivation required. . _ 14. That the Bill now upon the table, admitting foreign corn at all times upon payment of the duties !herein provided, and into warehouse free of duty, till taken out for homercausumption, must in all probability produce that effrct. 1.5. That the most fatal consequences must ensue from the operation of aricb a ,system ; that the coun tries which shall hereaftft.ouppl i r us with grain, in lieu of so much of British growth thus superseded, will, in our necessities, raise a revenue upon the ex ports, which must be pail . by us; then they will increase their marine, by confining the corn trade to their own ships ; and finally, when our dependence upon them shall have further increased, they May, in time of war, force us to submit to any terms, by closing their markets to our manufactures, and withdrawing from our unemployed and fatarishing • workmen that food which from them 'gone tan then be sonlied . . -- I' ) ..... ~ 11
