plebe facie we are about to mention may be relied an, we think, as yerfeatfy authentic. The Divan Is said to be divided into two parties—one for war, the other against it ; at the head of the former is the Sultan himself, whilst the Seraskier Paella -is the leader at *the peace party. In a Tor hish Divan it will appear no wonder that the Sultan's party should possess the ascendency, the natural supposition being, that he could not, under any other alter. native, tang continue Sultan ; but although this was decidedly the ease so long as the danger remained at a distance, the nearer approach lit It has, it is now said, produced a material alteration ; so much so, that some of the partisans of the Sultan, who supported his opinions hi she Divan, had had the courage to declare in private that they were friendly to concession. It Is said further, th it at the recent sittings of the Divan, which at this crisis were held daily, the pacific parry had been acquiring streogth. On the exertions of this party, who appear to possess a powerful Interest In the issue, the merchants place • great reliance. In consequence of the turn the deliberations of the Divan had taken, various reports were in circulation, one of which was that a change in the Ministry (the usual solution In Turkey as elsewhere of a political diSculty) was about to take place, intl that the Refs Effendi and the Capitan Pasha would both go out. — Further, it was rumoured that the grand question of peace or war to he referred,according to some, to the joint decision of the Grand Vizier, the Mufti, and the Seraskier Path+ ; according to others, to that of the Mufti alone: either of which would augur well,— Indeed any disposal of the question which removed it -trona the control of the Sultan himself. It Is most gratifying to find that not the slightest excitement bas (tattered on this occasion among the lower orders in Constantiooplet it did not even produce an expression of hostility against the Frank. This is owing, without doubt, to the suppression of the JasYMids and to the superior discipline and organisation of the arresymbillik has succeeded to the force. Under the old system, it would how been Insposcible for any Christian to have appeared in tbraweitib' 'fob caret,. Commercial advices have reached the City ft•24.olllllffillibel.lik by way of Odessa, of the date of the 12th uk. Ilhey dr est,lso , fortunately, throw much farther light on political affairs. It seems that the Captains of two Russian vessels, who were particularly , anxious to get away with their cargoes, had applied very urgently to their Ambassador to obtain clearances for them, if possible, de claring it to be their intentioo, if not procured, to sail without diem and 'octal the risk. The Ambassador declined applying at ;bat time for the umlaut, hot recommended them to wait patiently, as be thought that in a few days there would be no difficulty. They chose, however, the other alternative, and having passed the forts unnoticed. whether by accident or design, got away in safety As surances bed been given by the Consuls of the respective Christian Powers to the merchants, their countrymen, that whatever might be the decision of the general question, the safety of persons and property woold be guaranteed. The 'deices received hour Smyrna are datsd the 36th of Octo- ber. No inconvenience has been incurred there, soy more than at Constantinople, by the Franks. On the first alarm they had I commenced the embarkation of their property, bat the Pacha in terfered with assurances that they might rely on the most perfect security, if they did not, by rush indisc►etisw, create a different wars of things; on which confidence was restored. Thr only Turkish ship saved from the destruction at Navarin hid arrived at Smyrna. This was a corvette, which surrendered to the Russians, and was brought in by a Russian crew. .. THE EVENING STAR.
