Letters from Odessa, received this morning, dated 27th July, state, that all expectations of a war be tween Turkey and Russia had completely vanished ; Oiat no preparations had been made on side ; DO magazines of military stores ; no contracts for provisions ; none of the usual forerunners of war had, taken place. So muzli was the contrary the ca..e, that the Post-office had just given notice, that the communication by land with the Turkish Capital was resumed, and that the regular Post would leave as usual on the 4th of August. A Mail 'flout }Tinders has brought this forenoon Papers to the 21st inst. We subjoin some extracts : BRUSSELS, AUGUST Is. The Duke of Wellington has successively inspected the line of fortresses along the Meuse from Dinant to Maestricht he has everywhere expressed his satis faction with the works, which arc advancing rapidly, and the execution of which does honour to the engi neers who are charged with the direction of them.— The castles of Namur and of liuy, in particular, were highly praised by his Grace. On the other hand, we learn from the frontiers of France, that a certain jealousy is excited by the erec t:on of a line of fortresses in tke southein part of our kingdom, from Nicuport to Luttemburg. Joseph the Second had all those fortresses demo lished, for what reason is not well known, which cir cumstance greatly facilitaied the entrance of the French into Belgium in 179'2 and 1714, the armies which defended our courtly at that time having no fortresses to support them. In 17D t. it was proposed to cut the dikes and let in tlie sea, to cover West Flanders by this r.-.eans, but the plan was not adopted. BIZI;SFELS, r 19. Last night a Comm: arrived here from Paris with dispatches for the 'knish Ambassador, who imme diately sent him back with dispatches to Paris. A great number of persons, both in carriages and on foot, have set out this morning for Louvain, to be present at the double Jubilee of the 150th Anni versary of the renewal of the Arch-brotherhood of the Holy Rosary, and the 2.50t1t Anniversary of the famous victory of Lepanto, over the Turks, in 1571. On no occasion, since this signal triumph of Christ endom over the barbarous Mussultnen, has the cele bration of it excited more interest than at this moment, when we see Christians suffering the most horrible cruelties from their most ferocious and implacable enemies. We have received to-day Papers direct from Ma drid, to the 9th August. The following are extracts: CADIZ, JULY ;,O. According to accounts from Rio de Janeiro of the 18th of May, the Spanish Army of I'cru had its van guard, cc:mmanded by General Canteroc, at Chan cal, at the end of February. San Martin was at Iluaru, and had sent thirty-nine .of his Officers to Chili. The reason of this measure was not known. It is said, that the English corvette the Larne, which sailed on the 28th for Gibraltar, was met on the evening of the same day by a pirate, which, taking it. for a Spanish merchantman, had the boldness to attack it. CEUTA, JULY 23. By inquiries made on the 15th instar.t, we learn the following particulars of the affairs of Morocco:— That the discharge of artillery, and many other re joicings at Tetuan, were on account of a victory gained by Muly Zeid, with his army of 30,000 men, over that of his uncle, Soliman, of '23,000, between New Fez and Old Fez, at a place called El Pal Mar ; that Z.:id had caused six of the Generals of Soliman to be beheaded, and also a famous Christian Engi neer. Zeid had 600 men killed in the battle, and Soliman 5,00 killed and prisoners. The battle was on the 7th of July. The heads of the persons above mentioned are fixed up over the gates of Tetuan.—. Zeid, with half his army, was at Marquinez, and the other half in Old Fez ; but that all would unite at the first plaCe, and likewise an army of blacks, who had proclaimed Zeid Emperor. Soliman was retreating wizil the rest of his army twenty leagues from New Fez: that Zeid after the battle attacked that city, which shut its gates against him ; he raised batteries against it, with which he destroyed his uncle's palace and many houses. After the firing had lasted five days, the women and children and old' people came out with the books of the law to beg for mercy, which he granted on their proclaiming him Emperor. Zeid is said to have taken a solemn oath on the books of the law, not to lay down his arms till his uncle is killed. He is very angry with the Jews of Tetuan for having alarmed those of Gibraltar, which has induced the English to break off all cum uierce. with Barbary. MADRID, AUGUST 0. An Extraordinary Gaz et te has been publi s hed to. day, containing a d i spatch from the Governor of Porto lteio, announcing the re-capture of Caraccas, by General Morales, on the '27th May, and the total defeat of Bermudez: it states that General Latorre h.td defeated the army of Ilatvar. HIS MAJESTY'S F'IS'T TO IRELAND. FROM OUR IntIVATE CORRESPONDENT. DUBLIN, MONDAY, AUGUST so. • The Levee to-day was such as never was before in Dublin Castle, not excepting even the Duke of BED IORD.S first Levee, when Lord Lieutenant, which was very indiscriminate indeed. The present joyful occa sion, being a sort of Saturnalia, confounding all ranks, conditions, and parties, you may well.suppose that very many who went into the presence, furnished proof thereby that their presumption fully equalled their loyalty ; but, at the same time, if the doors were thrown open to persons who might well have won dered how the deuce they got there, and felt as awk ward in their fulldress as a bull in a china-shop, that did not prevent all that was great and respectable in the land from entering along with them. The num ber was so great, and the pressure so intense, that not r.lore than one in twenty were able to approach the . KlNc.'s person, but were impelled to their exit at the opposite door absolutely without seeing his MAJESTY. Chapeaus, latch ets, shoes, bags, nay skirts of coats, were torn away, and the place afterwards presented the dress spoils of a field of battle, without its blood and its mortality. Many who had not, nor could get carriages, were seen walking home from the Levee bare-headed. 1 suppose that hundreds more than went, would have been at the Levee, but that they could not get, " for love or money . ," swords and cha peaus. Great damage was done to carriages, the pannels of many having been broken in by the poles of contending vehicles. The KING, although he had the graciousness not to spew it by any expression, felt much inconvenience by the mob-like avidity to get near him, and I un derstand that a hint, perhaps a broad one, has been given, that it would be desirable that none attend the Drawing-room to-morrow evening but those who' shall have females with them. Without acces to the official record of the names, it would be impossible for me to tell you how many attended the Levee to day : it may give you some idea to say that every hackney-coach and sedan-chair was in requisition, land the number of persons, in full dress,ivalking to the Castle and from it, formed no small part of the i street population. The Levee furnished proof, no doubt, of great impudence of pretension, but still it was a display of affection and devotion to the SOVEREIGN, with which his MAJESTY has great reason to feel gratified. There were at least 500 persons at the Levee, with whom I would not sit down at a dinner-table ; but still they formed part of that which I pray - Goo our beloved Monarch may ever have with him, the PEOPLE; and if the fourth GEORGE have not these with him, now in Ireland, heart and soul, no King ever has had,. and loyalty and popularity are but visionary quali ties and possessions. In proof that his MAJESTY IS determined to do everything which the Constitution will permit to con ciliate the Catholics of Ireland, the Earl of FINGAL is to be one of the new and additional Knights of St. Patrick. Such is the amiable character of this No bleman, and the just estimation in which he is held by all parties, that there is not a Protestant of dis cernment, impartiality, and proper feeling, who will not be as much pleased as any Catholic at whatever distinction his SOVEREIGN may be pleased to confer upon him. EXTRACT FROM ANOTHER PRIVATE LETTER. DUBLIN, HALY-VAST SEVEN, MONDAY NIGHT. I have this moment returned from the Levee held by his MAJESTY. Never did anything in Dublin equal it. It was said that it more than doubled the number assembled in Ireland's proudest day. Each person on being presented kissed the Kixo's All Addresses were received. The Catholic Bishops attended, and had an audience. Lord FINGAL, the head of the Catholics, is to be created a Knight of St. Patrick. That circumstance alone will win for the KING half the hearts in Ireland. However, his entry into Dublin proved to him that he had a place in the bosom of every true Irishman. No Roman triumph ever at all equalled it. Saturday there was a review. It fully realized the expectations that were raised by it. All Ireland seemed assembled, each emulous to exceed the other in loyal—not devot:on, but—adoration. • Sunday (yesterday) his MAJESTY went to Christ Church : it was crowded from dawn of day by mul titudes anxious to behold a Monarch so loved in the land of the shamrock ! This day I must not attempt to describe: each person seemed filled with a proud joy, that, as an Irishman, lie was not indifferent to his SOVEREIGN. Now he is really a KING ! Tc--morrow eve there will be a Drawing Room : no doubt it will rival each of the former exhibitions.) The KING has signified his intention to visit the Theatre. On Thursday he dines with the LORD MAYOR, whom he has created a Baronet. On Friday his MAJESTY visits the Dublin Society, when, no doubt, he will be splendidly received and entertained. When the several Public Bodies, who took part in the Procession on Friday last, were proceeding through the Upper Castle-yard, after Lis MAJESTY'S entry c Lord Sinmourn, who stood at a window of the Pre sence Chamber, addressing himself to the Bishop of CLONFERT, who was next him, said— " My Lord Bishop—This is, I declare it solemnly, rot only the mast splendid slid delightful scene I ever 714 W, Lit the most splendid and delightful I could have conceivA. It. order of the' vast multitude before us is perfectly a stonbli!ng." « I want words," said the KING, whose emotion scarcer• permitted his 'MAJE•.STY utterance for some minutes, " to tell how my heart responds to the affec tionate feelings of this excellent and generous people. I shall love them for ever : they shall ever dwell in my thoughts and in my heart. I expected, when leaving England, a kind reception from a people proverbially hospitable and naturally grateful ; but I was not prepared for the enthusiastic and affectionate welcome I have received. I thought I knew my Irish subjects well—but I find there was much room to know them better. They shall profit by my improved' knowledge of them while ever I have life."—His MAJESTY was deeply affected. HIS MAJESTY'S ANSWERS TO THE ADDRESSES PRESENTED AT THE LEVEE ON MONDAY. TO TILE HONIAN CATHOLICS. 0 ' I am highly gratified by your congratulations on my arrival in this country, and with the sentiments of cordial...lnd dutiful at tachment which you have expressed to my Person and Throne.. It was my earnest wish, in visiting this part of my United King dom, that an equal degree of satisfaction might be diffused amongst all descript• of my faithful subjects in Ireland—that wish is happily and fully accomplished, and I am persuaded no endeavour will be wanting, on your part, to cherish and preserve that spirit of loyal union, which nJw pervades and animates the whole community, and which is not less conducive to individual and social happiness, than to the strength and prospetity of the State." TO TIIE PRESBYTERIAN DISSENTERS. " The sentiments which you have expressed on my arrival in this part of my dominions, ate highly gratifying to me, and are entitled to my warmest thanks. " I have the fullest confidence in your faithful and firm at tachment to my person and throne, and you may be assured of my constant protection of those civil and relisious liberties which arc the birth-right of my Peopk." • TO TIIE SOCIETY OF FRIENDS. " It h highly satisfactory to me to receive ynur congratula tions on my arrival in this parr of my kingdom, and your as surance of attachment to my person and government. " The loyalty of your principles, and your regular and peace aide conduct, entitle you to my zood opinion and esteem. Von nny rely upon my constant protection, prid in the continuance uf those privileges will...it you now so justly possess." TIIF: GILAND ar.vrr.w IN DULILIN. L'IZTHER PA I:IICULARS. _ Saturday, his MAJESTY' reviewed the several Re giments at present composing the Garrison, in the Phccnix Park. At eleven o'clock, the line was formed on the Fifteen Acre , ,, and consieled of the following Regiments :—TI,c 3d Dra , , ; oons, the Enniskillen Dragoons, the 7.h I iussarc, and the 12th Lancers, be sides the 23d, 52d, 33d, lf:d, and 76th Ite , c liments of Infantry, and the whole flanked by two 'D roops and • a Brigade of Artillery. The equipages on the ground were uncommonly numerous and splendid. At ten minutes past twelve o'clock precisely, the crowd had the gratification of seeing his MAJESTY. The Kiwi at that time, rode out of the private avenue in bill military uniform, mounted on a grey charger. A small guard of Lancers preceded and followed his MAJESTY; Sir BENJA MIN IlLoomvictn, Lieutenant , Colonel QUEN• TI N, and Sir B. BOLTON: the KING'S Equerries, rode by his side. His MAJESTY recognized several Gentle men whom he knew, on the way, and most graciously condescended to salute them in the most familiar manner. The Austrian Ambassador, Prince Es- TERIIAZY, in his full uniform, mad a number of Mi litary Gentlemen rode with the litsc, who smiled and conversed with those around him upon the gra tifying exhibition of so much enthusiasm as he then witnessed. The Artillery discharged a Royal salute as the KING rode on the ground. His MAJESTY ap proached the line—the military evolutions com menced and continued with the finest effect. The ,KING repeatedly signified his approbation of the fine condition of the troops in the field, and the admirable precision of their evolutions, which were in the highest degree military and imposing. His MAJESTY quitted the field at three o'clock; ac companied by the same honours, and greeted with the same warmth with which he had been received. The noble and gallant, Marquis of A NUL ESEA was on the ground, dressed in the nniform of his brave corps, the 7th Hussars ; at the head of which he rode through the City, on their return to their Barracks. He was cheered warmly and rapturously' as be passed along, kilt' was surrounded by an im mense cavalcade of Gentlemen, who joined in these demonstrations of admiration and respect. The following was the disposition of the troops in the Park : Btottr.--5d Light Dragoons; 7th Hassars; 331 Fusileers ; and 32d Light Infantry. CINTRE.-78th Highlanders ; 33d Infantry ; and 43d Light Infantry. LEFT.—Enniskilica Dragoons ; and 12th Lancers, as guards to his MAJESTY. Annt.LEur.—On the right and left wings. FROM THE DUBLIN JOURNAL A subscription i; now going forward for erecting a testimonial to perpetuate the glorious remembrance of his MAJESTY'S visit to Ireland ; but every person asks, " What is this testimonial to be? will it resem ble the useless pillars dedicated to NELSON and WEL• LINGTON F'—No, say we; let it be something worthy of the Irish Nation—Nyco:thy of the splendid triumphs of his MAJESTY'S reign—and let the general feelings of the People be constilted, who have declared already that it shall be a Royal Palace, combining all the grandeur and beauty of the architectural art, so nobly displayed in the best specimens-of antiquity.— We heard a Gentleman say—" I shall subscribe only £5, until I know what the proposed testimonial will be; if a Palace, I shall make it £100! Thousands, we are convinced, entertain similar feelings ; and were all Ireland to be called forward on this NA TION A E. occasion, we have no doubt of abundant funds. Let the whole country be organized, for this pur pose, in Parochial Committees for collecting sub scriptions from high and low—from all his MAJES TY'S subjects, that the poor man may have the ho nour of contributing his mite as well as the rich man's hundred or thousand pounds. Let this testimonial be the voluntary deed of the whole of the Irish peo ple, and it will be the mere acceptable to our most gracious SOVEREIGN. We hope the Committee al ready established for the collection of funds will act in a decided manner, and immediately publish their determination to erect a splfndid Palace, worthy of the greatest Mentatat ut the woad.

The bet rings brought in this morning by the fishermen ef Durragill (a new and promising station near Furse Castle) are unc,mmonly rich, and exactly of that description caught on the west coast.
