THE SUN. ii•LINI 201« DICLRI AL/Dt•li ? LONDON, JANUARY ;z, FOUR Sail of the Line were some time ago detached from the Mediterranean for Jamaica, so that our Naval Force there, probably, by this time, consists of Fourteen Sail of the Line, and when joined by Admiral , Catir E E I.'S Squadron, now at St. Helen's, waiting fur a wind, will amount to Twenty. Tyintelligenee which we received by the last Paris7ournals; and which we detailed to our Rea ders in our Paper of the t9thinst. 'has exciteo a con siderable sensation in the minds of the Public, re- , spelling the aetual condition and future fate of Tur key. Indeed, the political aspea of affairs in that Country', has long worn a portentous appearance.-- So long ago as the middle of the month of August, , an insurreaion of the Jan4aries broke oat in.Bet grczele, and the Pacha was confined. . But, in conse. quence of the GiAND SIGNOR having restored them to all their former ptivileges, the People returned to their allegiance., and the Pacha was reinstated in his Government. Thus, the Ttj.rkish poverntnent obtained a momentary tranquillity.—But by what means was 'this event effeftuated ?—By a condutt that bespoke the weakness and the timidity of the ruling power--r-by the acknowledgment on the part of the Government, of its inability to punish rebel— lion, and of a fatal precedent which will, no doubt, be repeatedly appealed' to, by the mutinous and dis contented. This concession was so far from being a bond of future quiet; that it could be considered only as an incentive to revolt, and as the prelude of those disturbances and convulsions which we now find have befallen the weak and crazy fabric of the Ottoman Empire. The aboire circumstance, cornpared with the po litical schism, which took place amidst the alarms of War, between the CArrrAl3. PAcnA and the GRAND Vrztß, in Egypt, on a ridiculous point of etiquette, also'with the occurrences which we have recently presented to the Public, augur unfavourably of- the stability and the energy of. the Turkish power. There can be little to hope from patriotism, in a Country, whose Chiefs, in the hour of peril, neglea its service for a puerile contention of Rank. Trifles, such.as these, are not without their prece dents. .1n civilized and enlightened Europe, there have been numberless instances of the prostration and ruin of well-projeaed measures, from the jea lousy and - envy of Commanders. To the glory of Great Britain, she has been an exception from this truth, throughoutthe whole course of her late tre mendous contest. Constantinople is become, we fear, a theatte_of Ini.:;chievous adivity ; and those who sunk into ob . scurity on the discomfiture of. the French Army, are again appearing upon the Stage, and ire Called by their Countrymen " the Jacobin Mussulmen." If any event were necessary to give support to our melancholy prcdidions. respeding the fate of Etropean Turkey; the late .occurrence in Egypt would fully authenticate it. The reins of Govern ment are every where relaxed.—Not only the more remote Provinces are infested . by ferocious ban_ ditties, .but in the very heart of the Empire, the standard of rebellion is uplifted, and frontless Chiefs brave the threats, and the power of the Ottoman Throne. So defedive, indeed, is the Police, that even the - Hospodar of Moldavia, some tin - 3e ago, with a numerous ; retinue and escort of janizaries, was not only attacked,by a body of armed banditti, on his route front Constevainorn toJassj, but was robbed of elfeels to the value of ioo,ooo piastres, and actually made prisoner, together with ; all his suite, until he was ransomed with a atilt, greater sum. The Porte detached an armed force against the delinquents ; but it is hardly worth : while to remark, that this measure proved ineffedual. To preserve order and goVernment, means are every where adopted to prevent, not to punish crimes. In Turkey, the punishment is regarded as the only measure of public security. This constitutes the wide difference between a Government of Law, and a Government of Force. We ought not, therefore, to be surprized, at the rebel Janizaries celebrating a solemn religious rite of thanksgiving. in the prin cipal Mosque at Belgrade for the success of their arms. While insurreaion; have been thus springing up in every direaion, the Capital itself is sick at heart, and rank with the grossest humours of Sedi tion ; so that the Government, beset , on all sides by faithless Servants, revolted Subjeas, and avowed Enemies, appears altogether incapable of executing one bold or decisive resolution. In the course of the last twelve years, we llayc. seen Subia; revo4 agains-t - their_legitimate Governments, and the litany; fillow their immoral example. But in Turkey; the4ony.erse of all this prevails : there the Miiitev:j , , who are exclusively entrusted with the power of the State, and who are proverbially the oppieSsois of their fellow subje&s, haVe been the first to lead the yan in the career of Revolution, while the timid Subjeets, await with tranquillity for the mandate that is to armonce to them who they are to obey, It appears, that efficacious measures have been already'adopted, to avert from the Turkish Domi nions, the ruin that impe.nds over them. Two British Regiments, which were of Malta, have been ordered back to Egypt, where Lord I-4;T- C HINSON remains extremely ill. Lord CAVAN commands, at present, at Alexandria. Whether this succour shall prove . timely and suf ficient to give weight to the authority of the oO_ vernment, or to reconcile the divisions which un- happily exist, we are riot prepared to assert. The storm, however, which has been long gathering over the Turkish Empire, assumes the menacing appearance of a speedy explosion. The elements of civil discord, we have already shewn, in a farmer Paper, to be prepared, and require only a small spark to set them in A blaze. It is unquestionably the interest of every Country of f,:lurope, that the fall of Turkey should not be, at this time, accele rated. It has slowly ran its race, and is now approaching to the utmost verge of its course; but that course, should call forth the wisdom of every Statesman to retard. A short time will announce to the world, whether it will quietly pass away like the faint glimmerings of the midnight taper ; or whether, like she wounded vulture in its dying agonies, it will strike with its beak, stain its talons in the gore of aggressive Nandi s; and after a grand but, fruitless effort to redeem its ancient lustre, expire in the midst of ruins, blOod,-and. glory. Five liambstrg./fai/s remain due. Yesterday the Dispatch-et; for St. .Helena and China by the Marquis of Eli; were finally closed at the East India House and delivered to the Purser. —The Passengers for St. Helena are Major 'Tiros: GREETittE and his son. • Mr.j')Hl HECTOR CHERRY has succeeded Mr. Mi“STER, at Custom-Master at Bombay. A material improvement is about to be made at Bombay, under the direction of Captain BRooKEs, which is, by an union of the islands of Bombay and Salsette by means of the Causeway at Sion. Its two ends are to he united by a Bridge, which will afford great and mutual convenience' to the Inha bitants of either island, leaving an intercourse for small boats to pass at low water, A Monument is now e're6ting in the south trans cept of St. Paul's Cathedral, to the memory of Captain BtrßoEss, wiiO was killed 10 the engage ment with the Dutch Fleet, We Understand it will shortly be enriched with the Monuments of. Earl HowE, Gen. ABERCROMBt, and Captainsll4ossE and Riot' ; and that stations are already allotted for that purpose.' Yesterday several craft and ships in the River started from their moorings ; at Limehogse Reach no boats could live on the water ; it is apprehended the storm has done a great deal Of mischief on the coast. We understand that Sir HENRY HAYEs, who was embarked'at Cork for New South Wales, died before ‘tHe Vessel lost sight of the land, His body Was sent on'sbore, and hi.; amiable and arreetionate daughter, - - w11"c; insisted on accompanying him, re turned to he:r inends. meeting of the Commissioners of Taxes at Sradford, on Wednesday se'nnight, to hear -Appeals, it was determined, that every person who keeps a horse, and does not crroom.and saddle him himself, is liable to be charged with the duty for a .male servant, except:in 'cases of parish-apprentices. The Commissioners of Income, afting for the Bath Division, have caused sol. the moiety of fines on persons for not returning their income,.:to be distributed amongst the distressed objects who do not receive parochial aid.

On Sunday it Was generally at 37- It is but little more than two centuries that Ire land abounded with woods and forests so very ex tensively, that it was a covenant in most of the tenants' leases, at that xra, to clear so many roods or acres of ground every year until they eipited or were renewed. .At present, no country, per haps, in Europe is so hare of timber. Among other rising improvements, therefore, of the Sister Country, an attention is about to be paid to this useful and ornamental objet. For this purpose, we noti.e, - "among the late Irish imports froni.this country, no less than 124 bartels of acorns, which, on an average, of : thirty-three thousand per barrel, may produee . alitiut four millions of oak trees.
