DEFEAT OF THE TURKS. TO THE EDITOR OF THE STAR. LETTER 11. SlR—Accounts received since my letter of the 6th, warrant the truth of all I anticipated respecting the consequences of the Turkish defeat at Pravadi. The Vizier's force imprudently engaged in that combat— dislocated and dispersed before the face of a regularly disciplined army—has been pursued with activity, and fragment after fragment of its number are being sur• prized and cut up in detail. The loss sustained in a ~ defeat by such an army as the Turkish is never to be summed up on the field of action. Retreat in disaster demands all the resource of tactic and able direction: it requires general coolness and intelligence to second t the wary efforts of a Commander, and those qualities l ate precisely what are wanting in the Ottoman ranks. Spurred by victory, an army commands itself; indivi- dual audacity strikes every where with effect; and troops once flushed with success often cover their Generals with immortal glory, by only carrying them passively along in their triumphant progress. But, in discom fitute, the soldier's spirit flags; the greatest efforts of his heroism can only secure his safety; his achieve ments are unnoticed in the consternation, and unre warded in the discontent. Depending entirely on scien tific combinations and prompt decision, they are at the discretion of their leader., who, at one false step, sell them at once to certain destruction: this conviction it is that so often breaks the confidence and forti tude of beaten troops, and, by weakening their ar dour of cooperation, delivers them—self-exposed— to the very danger they seek to avoid. This appears to have been exemplified in the late Turkish re - *eat, and remains to be illustrated in the event of 'every battle that fallen people may have the temerity Ito wage in open field. Fortified by the Coran behind a bastion, the Turk—sustained by opium and despair— is, as far as the obstinacy of brute courage goes, as firm an opponent as any besieger can contend with.— Indefatigable at the spade and pick-axe, he maintains a fortified work to the last : he yells at a gun, or rushes to a sortie with a bedlamite fury, to be withstood alone by the invincible firmness which method gives to force, against which the wildest fury, blindly directed, is ever to be repelled and discomfited, like breakers dished upon a rock. Before the modern perfection of artillery, and the improved uses of cavalry were understood, the turbaned people of Europe often proved themselves more than a match for their neighbours. Austria, Russia, and Poland—scarcely, if at all, superior to themselves in civilization and science—met them on equal terms; and the frequent victories gained beneath the crescent by mere blind courage in promiscuous onset, accustomed them to consider no other tactic necessary. But the days of pell-mell warfare are at an end ; they are left by the rapid improvements of the French, woe fully behind in strategics, and must now encounter the enemies of their northern and western frontiers, with as little chance of success as naked striplings opposed to giants in mail. The fall of Varna was Turkey's death. blow : provisioned and reinforced on that point by their fleets on the Black Sea, the Russian army will steal along its shore beyond the Balkan, in spite of all the headlong rashness of raw Spabis, conscript Topschies, ignorant of the first elements of gunnery, and a beg garly infantry led in disorder, still armed the most part with matchlocks, and unsupported by any effective re serve. The disorder of its advance guard—necessarily the elite of its force—is a fatal token of Turkish over throw: whenever they will risk their fortunes in the plain, they must succumb to science. Their lags may fly upon their strong places, and still their capital be insecure. With the sea coast free, their enemy can afford to pursue the triumphant system of NAPOLEON, and successively set Armies of Observation down along his line of march, to frustrate all attempts upon his rear. Moldavia, Bessarabia, and Wallachia now permanently secured to the conqueror—strongly garrisoned, and weeded of all that was dangerous—no longer offer terror to retreat. With one effort more the deserts of Bulgaria may be left behind, and the vallies of Romania open resources, which a Russian camp—better than ., any other—can appreciate, and turn to successful ac count. It is true that Turkish energies will kindle, as invasion approaches the port; but they will find a match in the flush of conquest. Asiatic zeal, cooling as the ruin of their master draws near, will fail to re inforce the discomfited army mustered to guard the r•tetropolis, forced to retain their tributary hordes in de fence of their own native territories. Persia lies inn noxious at the feet of Russia; Egypt is exhausted.. Barbary has enough to do in her own defence. Turkey stands alone, and her fall is certain. Those who have advocated peace at any price, who have sided wit► Ministers in their paltry policy in this war, reject these predictions, and deny the truths upon which they are founded. They tell us, Turkey, after the example of Spain and Portugal, will repel invasion by unconquer . able patriotism, and a simultaneous rising of the people, who--becoming terrible by despair—sill wage an irregular warfare that will render the possession of Turkey a struggle of life and death. But these forget that Spain and Portugal were •civilised, no. divided nations, at that time in possession of rich colonies, and unenfeebled by civil war : that they ate almost surrounded by sea, and that that sea was covered with co-operating triumphant British fleets—that the army of WELLINGTON and a British treasury were equally devoted to the cause—and thati l after all, the invaders only retreated, when themselves from another side were invaded—that the consequeseces have been the ruin of Spain, the grave of her strength and prosperity—and that the want of an enemy, and the jealousy of European Sovereigns to maintain that shadow called BALANCE or Fowls. has alone since that period preserved her existence as a nat on. In the present crisis Turkey, deprived of all that com poses the force of States, has not—not can ever have under actual systems.....the means of preserving her power. Destitute of institutions, lawi, science, arts, trades, manufactures, commerce, agriculture—and their essential product, revenue—she cannot hold up unsus tabled : and even, could due support be offered, the ex ertions of a century are wanting to render any effectual. An allied army of occupation might aid to guard her independence,but which of Turkey's friends will volun teer the force? Who will defray expenses, and when would its presence become unnecessary ? France, Eng land, and Austria may yet prove friends in need, and— uncalled for—they may hasten to aid their old ally: but will they be in time? Austria, as most approxi mate, can arrive first at the scene of action ; but with her malirieimust march dependent upon herself through the sterile desarts of Bosnia, Servia, Dalmatia, Albania, and Macedonia—leaving Italy to its constitutional fer ment : to attack the Muscovite at home, after the fate of France, is hardly to he expected from her prudence. England, at a ruinous expense, may sweep the Euxine, and unfurl her flag with France under the walls of Con , stantinople; but—footing fairly made in Turkey—the Russian, be assured, will keep his ground. The climate is a bulwark to defend him ; and he will tenaciously adhere to his conquests, as he has ever done, till poverty and dis unionwould send Turkey's protectorshome again—miser able monuments of the idle efforts of such an expedition I Other means must be resorted to, for our salvation in the East, than the contemptible, shallow, and abortive scheme of selling Greece once more to partial slavery. That country has more to hope horn the protection of Russia, than any advantage it seems she must hope to derive from us: and—master for master —the Czar Autocrat is preferable to the Mahomedan Sublime. MILES. THE SIN - KING FUND. By attending to the following particulars, and by comparing the amount of fresh debt contracted with old debt re deensed, it will be found that taking the period from January, 1825, to July. 1829, we have in reality had no sinking fund what ever. From the sth January, 182.5, to July, 1829, the sums ap plied to the discharge of thed national debt appear, according to the quarterly returns of the income and charge on the consolidated fund, to have amounted, its tetaiiter, to xi 9,136,659. But during the same period fresh debt, in various ways, and to a very large amount, has been contracted. 1. The deficiency bills on the sth of January, 1825, amounted to 1,550,2761. but op the sth July, 1829, the same deficiency bills amount to 7,274,2271.—under this head, therefore, there is an in crease of debt of 5,723,9511. 2. In t►e year 1826 the Four per Cent. Loan, amounting to 8,560,0001. was negotiated ; and if it should be objected that of this loan 3,600,0001. was paid up in Rechequer.bills. and that therefore to this extent credit must be taken as for unfunded debt redeemed, this will amount to nothing, because in the following year, 1827, a vote of credit was taken, and fresh Exchequer-bills to the same amount were re-issued. The net sum received from the Bank from January, 1825, go July, 1828, on account of the dead weight annuity, amounted to 6,707,8071. At this period (that is, in July, 1828) the transaction was completed; nothing has since been received, and in consider. ation of these and father monies antecedently received from the Bank on the same account, we are charged with an annuity of 185.7401. These being the particulata,the account will stand thus— Monies applied by the Sinking Fund to the re demption of debt, from Jan. 25, to July, 1829 . .C 19,136,659 Debt contracted during the same period: Increase in deficiency bills ae5,723,951 Four per Cent. Loan, 1826 8,560,000 Received from the Bank on account of the dead weight annuity 6,707.870 X 20,991,921 X 1,855,162 And therefore the fresh debt contracted exceeds the old debt redeemed in the sum of £1,855,162: and therefore during the period from January, 1825, to July, 1829, there has been no sinking fund, and the expenditure of the country has exceeded its income. Not merely have the operations of the sinking fund (sup ported as they have been by borrowed money) been entirely illusory, but they have also been attended with positive loss to the com munity. For, if we remember right, the 4 per cent. loan of 1826 was brought out at 92 per cent. and consequently giving an interest to the subscribers of 41.55. per cent.—and the dead weight annuity was sold to the Bank upon terms which were also equivalent to about 41. Ss. per cent, in a permanent annuity, and this borrowed money having been laid out in the purchase of Consols and Re duced, at prices giving about 3; per cent. interest for money, the difference between the rate at which the money was borrowed, and at which it was laid out, is equivalent to 181.155. per cent. in a 4 per cent. stock, which, on 15,300,0004 amounts to a capital of 2,869,2501. In a 4 per cent. stock.—Tisses. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. _--.1111.- - A report prevailed this afternoon in the City, that Government intended to order four Regiments to Canada, which bad some little influence in lowering the money market. Txa WIATIMR—CROPS —During the last ten d.sys, more or less rain has fallen In all the populous counties In Scotland. On Wednesday last It rained the whole day in this quarter, and it came on again about ten o'clock on Friday night, and continued, with very brief intermissions, fur at least fifty hours. Fortunately there was but little wind. sad the rain bore no resemblance to the "thunder plumps" that beat the crops to the earth. Barley and wheat will require no more rein, nor would the oats suffer much from drought this season, as they are generally bursting into the ear. The appearance of the crops, in short, is highly satisfactory, for while there are no apprehensions of a late harvest, there is every prospect of a fair average return—Scotsmen. CANSI or GOWRIE. Turnip sowing has been fleshed, for the most part, under favourable circumstances, and a regular braird appears. Potatoes show a regular and vigorous plant, though in this district they are rather later than usual. Beans and peas were in blossom by the middle of last month, but appeared stunted. The improvement since the rain is astonishing. Oats promise well, and wheat has a fineezternal appearance. From the severe loss sustained last season by the Carat larmet, in consequence of the wheat fly, early attention to this intruder was paid. A bold flower appears on early wheat, ands fine ear. Hay cutting has but partially commenced; the produce will be light. In the corn mar kets there is not much doing—few farmers have grain on hand.— Cattle and horses maintain former prices. Fruit in orchards was never so abundant. BRITISH AisisittcA.—The following site the proper classes or men which Macgregor recommends to emigrate from this country to British America, in his book recently published:— " Joiners, stonemasons, saddlers, shoemakers, tailors. blacksmiths, cart, mill, and wheelwrights, and (iu the sea ports) coopers may always And employment. Brewers may succeed. but in a few years there will be more encouragement for them. Butchers generally do well. For spinners, weavers, or those engaged in manufactures, there is not the smallest encouragement.— Active labouring men and women may always secure employment, kind treatment, and good wages.—To soutane n educated for the professions of law, divinity, or physic, Btitish America offers no flattering prospects. There are already too many lawyers, as they are admitted as attornies and birristers on serving an apprenticeship of four or five years in the Colonies. There are, of the Established Church, notwithstanding the astounding statement of Archdeacon Strachan, fully more clergymen, in proportion to the members of the Church, than in England. The members of the Kirk of Scot land, as soon as a sufficient number settle within a reasonable dis tance of each other to support a clergyman, generally send for a minister to Scotland. Anttburgbers, Baptists, and Methodists, have preachers in every settlement where they have members, or gain bearers.—The Boman Catholic Church is respectably established —its clergy well supported; and no class interferes less with other persuasions than they do, or are more peaceable or better members of society.—Medical gentlemen generally secure a decent liveli hood, but with few exceptions seldom make money. The climate e British Americo is Soo salubrious for doctors to maks fortunes.— Schoolmssten who emigrate, if they have not entered into engage ments, as to salary, befote leaving home, will, nine out of ten, have to cultivate the son for a subsistence, and they generally make in different farmers. —Young men of educadon, clerks in mercantile houses; or shopmen, need not expect the least encouragement, un less previously engaged by the merchants or shopkeepers in Ante d". m a ny young men, however, of persevering minds, and in dustrious habits, have baffled every obstacle, and finally succeeded in establishing themselves in trade. Many of the richest merchants in the Colonies were of this description ." COURT CIRCULAR.
