StrTg contests have broken out in the Servian 'Senate.- Cterny Georges. is at open war with the .other Servian Ciiefs, and the Russian General' .Orulk is unable to reconcile them. The consterna tion is the greater. among the common people, as there is talk of a considerable Turkish army =am bling in the environs of Sophie.

All these conjectures have given rise to the report of the Russians having passed to the left bank of the Da finbe, agreeably to an order from the head-quarters at Bucharest. A great sensation prevails in the Servian Senate, THE STATESIVIAN. LONDON: FRIDAY, SEPTEMBIR 4, 1811. French Papers arrived in town late last night to the 30th ult. which we have inserted in a preceding column, but they contain no news of any import ante from the armies iu the North, and are silent upon the war in Spain. It is very extraordinary, that the Meniteur has never taken any notice of the Peace concluded between Great Britain ) Sweden, and Russia. and'the consternation is so much the grtgsply among the people , as the intelligence of the assembling a large Turkish army near Sophie, every day becomes consistent. Reports from the neighbourhood of Vidd.sit liken ise announce military preparations on the part of Molla Pacha.—(Samc Paper.) PAnts A co. 23.—At Witepsk , the heats are ex. The Meeting at Loughborough, which we noticed yesterday, for the promotion of a NATIONAL PET!- . TION for PEACE, may be regarded as a striking proof of the present alarming state of the country.—The cessive. The thermometer is at 29 degrees. Not withstanding this temperature, the army, to which a necessary repose for some days has been given, offers the most brilliant appearances of health. The small carriages, that precious resource ap. plied so happily to the nature of the present war have rejoined the army, and are of the greatest utility to it. Ills Majesty labours night and clay; the hospital, abow every thing, has been the particular object of his :It tendon. The Russians fly, and incessantly spread Procla mations, in which they promise to advance, and de fend, even till death, the integrity of their territory —(Gazette de France, Aug. 24.) • %Est.. w, Ado. 9.—Yesterday morning, his Ma jesty the King of Prussia made the troops stationed here and in the neighbourhood perform a grand ma meurve. Fcr this paves( the troops were divided in two corps, one Orwhich was commanded by Lieute 'sant-Col. Plutsoki; and the other, which represented the enemy by Cl'l. Zietheu.

The King iet out for Neiss this morning at seven o'clock.—( harnaidc Paris, Aug. 25.) - NxeLcs, Ave. 10.—HisMajesty's ship the.loachins, which wall, on the 6th instant, launched at , Castel- lamare, arrived the day before yesterday at Naples. The activity and the presence of the enemy does not interrupt our commerce in the Adriatic. The system of the convoys either deceives their vigilance or op tosses them, by collecting, at a given point, superior forces to that of the cruizers. Au enemy's flotilla, which had gone up the waters in the district of La rano, on the 29th ultimo, sailed off at the sight of R convoy of more than 70 sail. The following day another convoy of the ships appeared on the same coast, which proceeded in the direction of from Vasto towards Rodi.—(Journal de Paris, dug. '27). BucusuEsT, Atm 3.—A great movemcut has taken piece in the Russian troops: the only road for the Bennet, practicable for an • army passing by Tschernetz, has been entirely destroyed, probably through fear of an attack by the Austrians. Fur several days, the most melancholy reports have been circulated relative to the military events of the North. A courier, who arrived here to Admiral l'schitschagow, in the night between the 27th and 28th of July, has not only confirmed these reports, but brought a formal order to the few troops which are in these provinces to retire as soon as possible.— All the troops which were on their march for Servia are returniag. It appears that the army is prpparing to place ;t -wit in all haste behind the Dniester.

The temporary glimpse of hope that almost raised the public mindlo a state of cheerfulness, under the weight of its burdens, on the removal of the Orders in Council, has, in the event, only served to preci. pitate them deeper into the gloomy regions of de spair; the features of which may be seen written in very legible characters in the wretched countenancer of the starving manufacturers.
