COMAIMNOI6I4IISt 30.—Theilisturbances . which a part oft be _an.ssar.es have Caused, for some tittle past, induced a certain part of the peacaldeinhabitants, mostly Janissaries them. selves on the 18th, to present themselves un armed to the Sublime Porte, in order to tletnand an effectual protection on the part of Govern. ment, against disorder, incompatible with. the public safety and commerce, or to be themselves authorized to do justice to these perturbaturs of order, unworthy of the n•unu of Janissaries. — Government has .approved of this step, and the Grand Seignior has addressed a very remark able rescript to the Caimakan, or Lieute.. Gant of the Grand Vizier, and to the principal Judicial Authorities, in which his Highness, in re commending the tespect due to the liberty and privileges of the Janissary•s corp.!, &Attics every , Janissary who, by his conduct, shalt *hew himself unworthy of that name, will forfeit these ticket'. tages ; gives not only the right, but eren imposes' under the threat of the malediction of the Cali. , phat, the sacred duty of arresting the disturbers of public tranquility, and delivering them up le the first Corps de Garde; and in case their assent.

We hope these energetic measures will - iv-establish order ou akin basis.—(Same Pew.), PActi., Jung 18.—The arrival of Lord (Sir J.) mirsart a in the roads of Guttenburgh, gives birth to a multiplicity of rumours in Germany, among which we remark some that bear the teeter of absurdity which is peculiar to nets of English manufacture, and that have been hawked about by the inceireiglhle adversaries of the com ma cause of the liuropran Conairient. it is in this point of view we must regard all that has been rumoured as to the blustering of Admiral Samna. TCA, who is said to have threatened that ha *bold take possession' of thb Swedish fleet ;_as if the port of Carlacrona, which is regtdarly fortiGed, could be taken by a sort of coup de stump, similar to that which threw into the hands of the Eng. the fleet of Copenhagen, that had been impru. utly left in a city surrounded by a badrampart, and eilerimbered with 100 4 000 inhabitants. Expo d.tions of that description are not susceptible of repetition. Swettn is prepared against awl attack ; arid since Admiral Saumares has not even ventured to sdze the fortress of Ny.E/fsborg, that cow. wands the entrance of the port of Gottenburgiti it may be presumed that he will reflect seriously, kfore he undertakes any thing against Carlscronsi which, i: should also be observed, is upwarda,Of . 100 leagues front the roads of Gottenburgb y a litre the English fleet has for three weeks bean' making an useless parade.

The real object of • the presence of Adiiiiral Saumarez seems to relate to the plot so fertunitely detected, and at the heed of which were, it is said, two Noblemen of ii•ania, Counts Ruth and Delagardie. We can COO. ceive that England would wish to see Sweden a prey to tho agitations inseparable from a mine. rity. Happily this project of a few ambitious, in. dividuals completely failed; and the Diet, *h osittitig, rejected the idea of such a plan .salt its. ilignation. The melancholy event, 'which has just deprived Sweden of a Prince, eminent for ta. lent and courage, will. doubtless render it necessary to convoke, in a constitutional manner, an extras' ordinary Diet, but can have no influence whets°. ever upon the external policy of the kingdom; for it is already foreseen that the suffrages of the' Swedes can only be divided betwceo Princes who are equally attached to the cause of the Conti. l imit. The competitors will probably be a Prince, of Olilenburgh, and the King of Denmark, whom the provinces of Dalecarlia and Jaintland desired in preference to the deceased Prince of Augusten. Iburgh. The English .have, at all times, been ilarm. led at the union of all the strength of gcandinavia in one political system. They are aware that the shutting of the Baltic, an active war 'in tipp ' North Sea, and perpetual alarm, with rtward to the coasts of Scotland and Ireland, would be the inevitable consequences of such a system. For these reasons it was that in 1743 the Ittigllsh AM. inn-eider prevented the Diet; already influeuced by the voice of the people, from' electing the Prince Reiyal of Denmark as successor to the Crown. But the triumph of .the intrigues of that ambassador was entirely owing to the support of a Conti. rental Power, which, at prisent, is at war with England. It may easily be conceived, that all the Swedish patriots arc, at this time of day, conviticed of the fatal effects which the English intrigue of 1743 has hail upon the tranquillity and glory of Sweden. At present there prevails throughout the whole of the north only one, nati. (mai sentiment, that of the necessity of maintain. ins an united and vigilant guard against every sug. gist ion coining from England. The Duke of Valmy passed through Metz, few days since, on his way to Strasbiirgh. The IVestphaliatt army is to receive an augmen t : , tation of ten regiments. Its present effective form is about 26,000 men. The Duke of Rages* has demanded of the Pa. clia of Bosnia a sum of 40,000 ducats, or an equi. Talent to cattle, as an indemnification for the'ra. rages committed by the 'rurks uuder his jurisdic. During the late sale of English confiscaled mar.. chandixe at Trieste, it was discovered that a man ner of the bags and boxes were tilled with sand, is. stead of sugar, and beans, instead of coffee.. The Renard, Captain Laicla, has carried into, Groningen three English prizev. Letters from Italy, of the 26th ult. state, that a French squadron of two sail of the line and six fri gates had been seen off Otranto.

The fetters placed upon the Pans in Ireland, has made the greatest sensation in that country. On this topic we give the following interesting extracts from two distinguished Irish Papers:— " The Pressor Ireland survived the wreck of her indepen dente; in the spirit of that freedom she hqd lost, it lived to capsule her for -the crimes of a corrupt Parliameut, to cheer her in taisforteue, and to illeme the path which might agaia lend to liberty.
