On the 29d Dec. a Tartar brought to Jassy, front Con.tantinople, a Firman, which was published on the 24th. It ordered that all the artillery, except two cannon, should be sent back to Bralia. • At the same time the Janissaries were commanded to remain in Moldavia alone, and not to desert, otherwise they would be punished as runaways, and above all, they should refrain front committing any excesses. This order excited great dissatisfaction among the Janis saries: they openly declared that they would not let the artillery go away, and the greatest fears were entertained respecting the issue of this Alain The Boyars, who have emigrated wait with im patience tOr news fromJassy of the'27th Dec. which day was fixed for the departure of the artillery. (This sews has this moment arrived; the cannon, fihtenln ntimber, has been sent away, and nothing particular had wurred.) The excesses and extor tions of the Turks arc beyond description if com plaints are brought to the Commander at Jassy, Salish Pacha, he weeps, summonses the guilty, takes from them the fruits of their plunder, and keeps it for himself. In Moldavia there are not ab o ve 10,000 or 12,000 men, and these are in and about Jassy. The rest of the Ottoman force is behind the Danube, she tiir tresses upon which, Braila, Siliatriu, Ruschtschuck, &c are placed in a state of defence. a - The head-quarter. of the Serualier Czapan Oglou, are at Silistria. It seems. therefore, the Turks do not intend seriously to defend Moldavia snd Walla chia which wanhleast them very dear, if there should he any war, us the Russians have assembled their main force near Teanaroe, at the mouth of the Pruth. Turkish troops in Moldavia are ouly an advanced corps, which will leave the country as 'bon us the first gun is fired, but will by that time completely cabana. and at last lay it waste. It is even believed that the Turks, if they should retreat, will set tire to Jassy, the houses of which are chiefly of wood. The Russian troops between the Pruth and the Daniester were obliged, some days ago, to scud all the wives of the officers and soldiers hack over the Daniester On the other hand, troops tient the interior ul Russia daily arrive in Bessenavia.— A s they cannot all pass through Chotym, two bridges of pontoons were laid down near Mogilcw, but the ice carried them away ; but, as the weather is still very mild, and the drift ico nas disappeared, the two bridges have been restored. The Pruth itle.f i, strongly oe,upied by infantry. The day before yes terday another detachment of 2,000 powder waggons passed threugh Citotym, basides a large supply of t.ongreve rockets. The Russian General-in-chief, Gaunt Wittgenstein, bad his head-quarters at Tule rei, on the hat bank of the Daniester, but it is pu mutely stated that they will be transferred in a I.:iv days to Kischenow. In general every thing seems to indicate that the commencement of hostilities is tut tar 11:stant. VIEN NA, J mi. 12.—An eve•witnrss furnishes us with tne t'lliowt::g additional partit•ul.as relating to the titling of " The capitulation was concluded or ratified by the Bey of Jlitin•t, his brother. Caracuculi, Colo«). trout, Anagosti, Giatraeo, snd Nikita. The Turks so fully depended on it, that, in the space of two eays, several thousands of them left the place tin . inoestLtl, and posted themselves near the Greek camp. On a sudden. however, it was known that Detr.etritis Ypsilanti and Gen. Gordon had secretly 1-. ft tit,: city; and from that moment the breach of the capitulation, and tall kinds of horrors were fore seen. _ _ _ " On the following day, that part of the Greeks that blockaded the city on the road to Argos, with out acq u ainting their comrades, undertook an as sault, made themselves masters of a gate and tower, and placed their colours on it. The rest of the besieging troops, in:•pire:l only by the apprehension of losing their 'hereof the plunder, now penetrated into the city on all sides, and without opposition. mid there soon commenced, within and without the walls, a series of scenes, unparalleled, perhaps in ti,e annals of human wickedness and cruelty. Mr. Gordon Lad arrived in the Mores with a large sum of moat y. He soon perceived what he had to expect from his new allies, but he is not the SUNDAY, JANUARY 182(2 man so easily to give up what he has once under taken, and so long as he entertained a faint hope, if not of doing good, yet of hindering crimes, he held 1 I out. lie accepted the place of Quarter-Nlastur- General under Demetrius Ypsilanti, who had been named Commander-in-Chief by the leaders above mentioned, though he was little versed in the art of war, and had declared, after the taking of Mal vasia, that he would not serve any longer. The same chiefs, meantime, found means to take from Mr. Gordon all the money which he hal brought with him. Their want of necessaries of every kind was great- The collections made for them in fo reign parts they had indeed heard of, but had never received any thing of them: and the little treasury of the Pacha of Tripnlizza, which has been long exhausted, has certainly not enriched them. Be sides Mr. Gordon, several French officers who had engaged under Demetrius Ypsilanti, have with• drawn since the murderous scenes at TripOliZZa." FROM HUNGARY. JAN 4.—Accounts received from the liuckuwina iniinm us " that in the Rus sian frontier towns the inhabitants were forbidden to give any information abroad of the marches of the troops. On the other hand they write from Transylvania that the Turks else really,making all vreparations to evacuate Moldavia." The accounts excite great sen.,ation here, and some persons expect that we shall hear, within a week, that the Rus sians have passed the Pruth. Others doubt this.— Some again believe the Russians will occupy Mol • davia and Wallachia, in consequence of a enliven thin with the Porte ; yet Turkish reinforcements arrived of Jassy an the i7th.
