After having been placed so disgracefully under the direction of two successive cabinets, will she pursue under the pilots that now unfortunately direct her, that object which they de tested, before there was even a question of attaining it ? D you hear our Ministers pronouncing any part of the word independence ? Do you see M. de la Bourdonnaye and M. de Polignac freeing a people ? They ?- Please God that they may not have time to ex tinguish in the people the gratitude they feel for our late sacrifices. Providence has not reserved us, perhaps, for that. Our Ministers will give us in ex change the joy of the Pere Cyrille and the felicita tions of Don Miguel.

CONSTANTINOPLE, AUG. 17.—The whole city is in the utmost consternation at the rapid advance of the Russian army, and the Porte is all at once ready to make peace on any terms. The commissioners are already appointed who are to go to the Russian head-quarters, to learn what conditions the Emperor of Russia now demands, for none of the foreign diplomatic agents here is acquainted with his inten tions, not even Baron Muffling, who was said to have come expressly to let the Porte know on what terms the suspension of hostilities might be obtain ed. General Diebitsch is approaching Adr'anople, whence he threatens to march against Constantinople. General Paskewitsch is said to have left Eizeroutn, and to have divided his army into two corps, one of which is proceeding against Trebisond, and the other against Jokat, that is, on the road to Scutari. This measure has entirely discouraged the Sultan, who, according to accounts that deserve credit, has keen ill for these three days, and plunged in deep me lancholy. BUCUAREST, AUG. 20.—A report has been in circulation since yesterday, that Turkish commis sioners have come from Shumla to General Krass owsky, to propose an armistice, but that General refusing to listen to them, they asked a safe conduct to the head-quarters of General Diebitsch to nego tiate a general armistice. It is added, that they had failed in their application to the General-in-Chief, because the first condition he proposed was, that Shumla should be evacuated and given up to the Russians. This news, however, rests on the credit of private communications, and requires confirmation. All the Turks, however, wish for peace, for their affairs are in a bad state. It is not improbable that Shumla may soon fall. The Grand Vizier himself is said to be in despair. . The garrison of Nicopolis has ventured to make an excursion to the left bank of the Danube, but has paid dearly for it ; for the Russian commander before Giurdzevo, learning that Turkish cavalry had ap peared near Tournoul, sent a detachment of heavy meetly to drive them from the left bank, which was done without much trouble. Many of the Tullis were killed, and several hundred taken prisoners. It is even affirmed, that not a man returned to Nico polis to announce the misfortune. The Wallachians are more and more pleased with the new schools, in which the system of mutual instruction is chiefly followed. The poorer classes are eager to let their children enjoy the benefits of education, and the pro gress of the young people, in a country which till now had hardly any public schools, is equally surprising and satisfactory. MUNIen, SEPT. 4.—lt was the same Ft ench courier that left Constantinople on the 17th of August that brought to the Russian Legation at Vienna and Munich, the letter of General Diebitsch of the 21st August, officially announcing the taking of Adria nople. This courier must have passed through the Russian head-quarters, where the despatch to M. de Tatischeff was given him. The French Go vernment must, therefore, be very soon informed of this great event : it will be worth while to remark whether it will hasten to publish it. ,IlEams, SEPT. G.—The Journal of St. Peters burgh contains an account from the army in Asia to the 306. July. The Commander-in-Chief reports that the enemy's troops did not make any more attempts against us, on the contrary, their small detachments, dispersed io all di rec ti o ns, and without connexion with each other, carefully avoided our troops, and only plunder and lay waste the villages of the peaceable inhabitants, without difference of religion. The dangers to which the provinces in this neigh bourhood are exposed from their own soldiers, and still more the mildness and justice with which the provinces end towns of Turkish Asia that have sub mitted to us have been treated, continually lead the elders and landowners to come and make their sub mission, and request Russian protection. On the 29th of June, all the Sandjaks of the Pachalik of Erzeroum, except the two most distant ones, had submitted to us and were in our power ; the Christian inhabitants who were carried away by the Turks, anti the Malsometans who had fled at the sight of our troops, were returning from all quarters to their homes. Our soldiers find the most friendly reception among them and abundance of provisions, and enjoy with them all the advantages of trade and industry, which have every where resumed fl,eir usual activity. General Count Paskewitsch has also sent to his Majes.y a detailed report of the attack made by the ilactm of Van on the fortress of Bajazet, which was repulsed by our brave troops under Major-General Popoff. ODESSA, AUG. 22.---The sanatory slate of the t o wn Ims been as satisfactory in the last half of this wee k a s the first. No case of disease has occurred calculated to cause alarm.

BRUSSELS, SEPT. 11.—A letter from Odessa of the 21st of August says, " that Admiral Greig, after the taking of Vassilico and Actsteboli (Aga thopotia), wies going to attack Inada (Aireida), 23 leagues from Constantinople, in order to make him, self master of that port." The law relative to public instruction is in pro gress, hut very slowly : we hear that it will be com pleted by the end of this month. There are vague accounts of some liberal principles which it will contain, but eeonected with others which will 149 P tralize their effect. It is to be feared that the law will not offer a consistent whole, and that like many other measures proceeding from the Government, it will not satisfy any body. A British Cabinet 'Messenger from London has passed through here with despatches for Frankfort. Immense damage has been done by inundations in the environs of Loo, Rheninghe, Woumen, and Fut - mete—Brussels Papers, Sept. 12. PERA, AUG . IG.—The Turkish Commissioners have at length received orders to repair to the Rus sian head -quarters, and the city appears more tran quil. Many difficulties, however, must be removed before peace can be made, and it is inconceivable that the Porte can expect its proposals to be accept ed. They are said to be the evacuation of the Turkish territory and all the fortresses by the Rus sians, and the integrity of the empire, with the ex ception of the Myren and Cyclades, which it will re- 0 - 4 - 4*m LONDON, MONDAY gVENING, SEPTEMBER 14, 1829. We have received frcon 4 correspondent at Dover, the important intelligence of the passage of the Dardanelles having been taken possession of by the British quadron. The latest Express from Paris gives an interesting account of the entry of the Rus sian Army into Adrianople. It was received in the most friendly manner by the Turks, whom the Russians were surprised to find more civi_ lized than they had expected. Twenty-eight thousand men entered the cite, but only 5,000 remain, the rest have been sent forward to Con stantinople. The total amount of the army is 56,000 men. The Constitutionnel says that General DIEBITSCH has received positive orders to prosecute his operations as far as Constanti nople, without allowing himself to be stopped by any considerations. The French Papers are chiefly filled with spe culations regarding the state of affairs in the East. The Journal t des Debats has a spirited article on the subject, in the course of which, alluding to the SULTAN'S present apparent inac tivity or timidity, it sarcastically observes—" His predecessors were buried under the ruins of the empire, but MAIIMOUD, who has within the last four years changed so many things in Tur key, has, perhaps, also regenerated the courage of the Sultans." The German Papers give the most distress ing, though by no means unexpected, accounts of the state and prospects of Turkey. The Russian army is in full march for Constanti nople, flushed with conquest, and the splendid subject which engrossed for so many years the attention of that Semiramis of the North—the Russian CATHERINE, is at length, it seems, on the eve of being realized. When the troops of the CZAR halt without the gates of Constan tinople, then will the old Russian prediction be fulfilled. But this is a step not yet to be de cided on, for Commissioners from the PORTE are already on their way to the camp of General DIEBITSCH, to treat for peace on the best pos sible terms. " The whole city," says an Ex press from Constantinople, " is in the utmost consternation at the rapid advance of the Rus sians, and the PORTE is all at once ready to make peace on any terms. The Commissioners are already appointed who are to go the Russian head -quarters, to learn what conditions the Emperor of RUSSIA now demands, for none of the Foreign Diplomatic Agents here is ac quainted with his intentions, not even Baron MUFFLING, who Ras said to have come expressly to let the PORTE know on what terms the suspension of hostilities might be ob tained. General DIEBITSCH is approaching Adrianople, whence he threatens to march against Constantinople. General PASK Ewer sc ir is said to have left Erzeroum, and to have divided his army into two corps, one of which is pro ceeding against Trebisond, and the other against Jokat, that is, on the road to Scutari. This measure has entirely discouraged the SULTAN, who, according to accounts that deserve credit, has been ill for three days, and plunged in deep melancholy." A letter from Odessa, of the 21st of August, states that Admiral GREW, after the taking of Vassilico and Achteboli (Agatho polis), was going to attack Inada (Ainada) 23 leagues from Constantinople. The Allgenzeine Zeitung, received this morn ing, speaks in warm terms of the success of the Russians, and the hapless condition of Sultan MA lINIOUD and his Government. The article, which is elaborately written, leans to the side of the Russians, and argues about the impolicy, not to say the injustice, of England's attempting to thwart their career of victory : FROM THE DANUBE, SEPT. 3. The Russians are in possession of Erzeroum and Adrianople, and no Turkish army is to be disco vered capable of disputing the advance of the con querors. Thus the incurable weakness of the Otto man empire is placed beyond a doubt. Its help less condition has been long no secret ; the unani mous testimony of all travellers had announced for years the inevitable fall of the Sublime Porte. h i addition to this the long struggle with the weak and disunited Greeks proved indisputably the impo tency of their tyrants. But politicians would not acknowledge what was manifest, because they found it inconvenient to accommodate themselves to the new order of things, and to create a new order when the old one had perished. They accordingly pre ferred deceiving themselves by vain hopes. It was hoped to make the Greeks incapable of longer re sisting the Turks by keeping up their internal dis union. Sultan Mahmoud, who preyed on his own vitals, and with dreadful barbarity massacred Chris. tians and Janissarie, was repudiated as a great re former," whose Government," as Sir R. Gordon says, " was characterised in so distinguished a manner by the conquest of difficulties and wise a dministration." But the warlike spirit which inspired the great man in the murder of his defenceless subjects, with the aid of all the natural and artificial obstacles opposed to the Russians, has not been able to hinder them from penetrating into the heart of his empire, and threatening his capital. The conqueror of diffi culties, the wise Governor, knows not how to ad vise or help himself, and the help of his friends proves to be insufficient. In vain have they endea voured to detain the enemy by accounts of his de • feats—in vain have they annihilated him by plague and famine—in vain represented his numbers as in considerable, his skill as small, and the Balkan as an insuperable barrier. This enemy subdued by famine and pestilence, and frightened at mountain passes, this little band. of adventurers is now within a few marches of Con stantinople, and finds no army that needs to be conquered. This is the naked truth of the se rious fact which has suddenly put an end to delusions. Some friends of the Turks still comfort themselves with the deliverance which is suddenly to come with the speed of the telegraph from England, " the old friend." But the organs of public opinion in England already acknowledge that it would be foolish to hope that the Christian Powers will unite to restore a fallen Mussulman Empire; and the Duke of Wellington finds that the old friend in Constantinople has drawn the misfor tune on himself by his own obstinacy. The boasts of the times, which would annihilate the Russian navy with some ships in the Baltic and the Euxine, have rpet with the fate of other boasts, and the world sees that too much importanc e was attached to them. It is not forgotten that on the 20th of Feb. 1807, the English fleet, under Admirals Duckworth, Louis, and Sidney Smith, indeed passed happily through the Dardanelles, but was obliged to return a few days later with considerable loss, and without accomplishing its object, and without having met any enemies but Turks, and the bold eloquence of the French Ambassador General Sebastiani. We remember also the tostallfailuredosfttrhoy theeatte to,usi. i them e p s to l f English fleet in 10 to destroy mats at Cronstadt, on which occasion' seve ral of its ships suffered severely. Only such expeditions as those to Copenhagen, Washington, Parga, and Terceira, seem to be the classic field of English policy and warfare. The Russians might, therefore, have good reason to be easy in case of threats. Happily these are not to be expected.— England will not go to war against the fate, against the sound sense of public opinion, and against the sacredness of treaties to attack an ally whose rights it has solemnly acknowledged. If such an attack on public morals, and the law of nations, might have been possible a few months ago, the state of things is now materially changed.— Europe will thus be indebted to the decisive, per haps unexpected, progress of the Russian armies for the preservation of peace. It has become necessary to learn to agree with Russia, and war against that power would be in every respect out of season. The Post of this morning has a long article on the subject of the late Meeting of the Magis trates and Gentlemen of the county of Tippe rary, in the course of which, alluding to the ar guments of those enlightened Senators, who ad vocated the cause of Emancipation as the only certain panacea for the distractions of Ireland, it sneeringly asks, " Was not a large proportion of the military strength of the Empire then re quired for the preservation of peace in Ireland, to be instantly set free? Were not this removal of domestic danger, and this augmentation of available strength, to manifest their immediate effect in the increased influence of England in every quarter of the globe ? Was not the height of the Balkan range of hills to experience a new elevation, and the intricacies and difficul ties of its passes to be multiplied ? Was not the distance from the Danube to Constantinople even to be increased, by we know not how many degrees, in consequence of this talismanic act of the British Senate ?" To all these queries we have but one answer to make. Nothing of the kind as the immediate consequence of Emanci pation—and our contemporary lays great stress on the word " immediate"—was ever said, anti. cipated, or even dreamed of. The language of the advocates of the Catholics throughout the Session uniformly was, that by granting Eman cipation, Government would be laying the foundation of a lasting tranquillity to Ireland; that they would be gradually cutting away one great stumbling-block in the way of a vigorous and equitable administration of her resources ; and above all that they would be narrowing the circle of her discontent,:and progressively uniting her more firmly, in the bonds of a more cordial and affectionate interest, to the sister island. In like manner, that by blending into one harmonious and accordant whole, the hitherto scattered and conflicting energies of the Cabinet, they would be impressing on the minds of the Continental Sovereigns a more lofty idea of the vast moral and political influence of Great: Britain, than any they could have previously entertained. This was the language of the Emancipators, both in and out of Parliament ; this was what they one and all asserted, and by this they will one and all abide. As for any immediate advantages to flow singly from the Catholic Relief Bill, they never dreamed of it for an instant. They knew that it was perfect madness to suppose that, because Emancipation was granted on the Monday, on the Tuesday all Ireland should be spell-bound in some strange talismanic tranquillity, and on the following month all Europe be stupified and paralyzed into impotence ! Government, like a healing balsam, works by wit not by witchcraft. Time—a reasonable time, is requisite to allow its benefits to be properly appreciated. The longer and the more inveterate the disease has been, the longer period it will take even the most experienced practitioners to eradicate it. None but your in fatuated quacks, whether in medicine or politics, ever presume to undertake cures in an instant ! impromptu recoveries, like most other impromp tus, have little beyond their brevity to recom mend them. With regard to Ireland, the recent partial dis turbances in Tipperary—out of which the Ultra Tory Press is striving so hard to manufacture, first, an insurrection, secondly, an answer to those who looked, and still look, on Emancipation as a tranquillizing act—these disturbances have no more to do with the Catholic Question than «Hyperion with a satyr." They are mere temporary ebul litions of party feeling growing out of causes purely local. Really our ultra cotemporaries must be reduced to the lowest ebb, when the strongest argument they can bring against Eman cipation is, that it has not been able to prevent a drunken squabble between the police and the peasantry at Boris-o'kane ! Such a mountain cannot fail to bring forth a mouse. We have a file of Grenada Papers to the 3d of August. The Paper of the Ist contains a Proclamation from the PRESIDENT, announcing that he has suspended the CHIEF JUSTICE until his MAJESTY'S pleasure shall be known. We have Gibraltar Papers this morning to the 24th ult.; the exchange was at 48k. The following communication we received this morning from our private correspondent at Paris : " PARIS, SEPT. 12. " I have not been able to-day to hear of any in telligence from the seat of war in the East, which can he at all relied on ; nor if the fall of Constan tinople, or the final overthrow of the Ottoman Empire, had been this morning definitiv4y an nounced in Paris, would the attention of the inhabitants have been diverted from the engross ing interest of their domestic concerns. I have repeatedly had occasion to mention to you the apprehensions which are seriously entertained by the Constitutional party in France, that some inroad is to be attempted by the present Govern ment on the liberties of the people. In the an ticipation of such an attempt the most strenuous preparations are making, particularly in the northern departments, to counteract it ; and a sort of declaration or manifesto has been issued by the leading inhabitants of the five depart ments of the ancient province of Brittany, the object of which is to create an association for the purpose of resisting the payment of taxes illegally imposed, either without the intervention of the two Chambers, or by Chambers assembled in contravention of the Charter and of the exist ing laws. This declaration has been printed in several of the daily papers, particularly in the Journal du Commerce and in the Echo de France, both of which prints have in conse quence been seized at the Post-office. Some notice had also been taken of it in the Gazette of this morning, for the purpose, it may be pre sumed, of adding some unfavourable commen tary ; but even with this antidote the authorities have not thought fit to allow it to see the light. I have succeeded in procuring a copy, which I now subjoin, as even in England it will have some portion of the interest which is universally attached to it by men of all parties in this country. Under the existing law which guaran tees the liberty of the press, the seizure of the papers at the Post-office is no doubt an illegal stretch of power, and it is not easy to see what defence can be made for it. As to the declara tion itself, and the association already formed under it, however alarming it may be to a Mini ster who should contemplate such measures as those against which it is intended to provide, there seems to be nothing in it, according at least to our English notions, which can at all justify or excuse such a violent exercise of arbi trary power. What, for instance, would have been said in England, if a whole impression of the Times or the Morning Chronicle bad thus been confiscated, because it happened to contain one of the violent tirades of the late Catholic Association, or an invitation to liberality in the collection of the rent ? The Declaration is as follows : " ' We the undersigned inhabitants of the " five departments of the ancient province of " Brittany, under the cognizance and protec• " Lion of the Royal Court of Rennes, bound " by our own oaths, and by those of the chiefs of " our families, to the duty of fidelity to the " King, and of attachment to the Charter; " considering that a handful of political in " triguers have threatened to attempt the auda " cious project of overturning the Constitu " tional guarantees established by the Charter ; " considering that if the inhabitants of Brit " tany have been able to find in these guaran tees a compensation for those which were " assured to them by their union with France, " it is their duty and their interest to preserve " this remnant of their liberties and their frau " chiles--it is due to their character and their " honour to imitate the generous resistance, of " their ancestors against the encroachments, the caprices, and the abuse of Ministerii.l power ; considering that resistance by physi " cal force would be a dreadful calamity, and " that it would be without motive while the " means of legal resistance remain open to us ; " that in recurring to the judicial power the " best Prospect of success is to assure the op " pressors of a fraternal and substantial union ; under the ties of honour and of right we " therefore resolve— Ist. To subscribe individually the sum of 10 francs, besides a tenth part subsidiarily " of the contributions inscribed by the under " signed in the electoral lists for 1830, and we " oblige ourselves to pay to the order of the '• General Collectors, should it become neces " sary to name them, in conformity with the " third of these resolutions. " 2d. 'lbis subscription is to form a com " mon fund for Brittany, destined to indemnify " the subscribers for the expenses they may in " cur in consequence of the refusal to pay any public contributions illegally imposed, either without the free, regular, and constitutional concurrence of the King and the two Cham bers, as constituted by the Charter, or with g the concurrence of Chambers formed by an electoral system, which could not be voted by constitutional forms. " 3d. In case of the official proposition, 44 either of an unconstitutional change in the 44 electoral system, or of the illegal establish " ment of taxes, two mandatories from each ar " rondissement are to meet at Poutivy, and as " soon as they are met, to the number of 20, " they are to name, from among the sub " scribers, three General Collectors, and one " Sub-Collector, in each of the five depart " meats. " 4th. The duties of the Sub-Collectors " are-Ist. To receive subscriptions ; 2d. To satisfy indemnities, conformably to article " 2d ; 3d. O❑ the requisition of a subscriber, " disturbed by an illegal contribution, to con " duct in his name, under the care of the Sub " Collector of his department, or of a delegate " named in his arrondissement, the defence avid its consequences, by all legal means ; 4th. To bring a civil action against the authors, " supporters, and accomplices in the assess " went and exaction of such illegal impositions. sth. The subscribers name M. -- and " M. as mandatories for this arrondisse " ment, to meet the mandatories from the other " arrondissements, in conformity with article " 3d, and to transmit their present subscrip' - " dons to the general collectors when named.' " From the terms of this declaration it will at once be seen that a very general alarm has been excited on the subject of the measures which are supposed to be in agitation by the present Ca binet ; but it is satisfactory to see that a steady reliance is placed on the firmness and purity of the judges, who are declared by the Charter not to be removabl e , an d w h o are on ly liable to b e acted upon by th e h opes o f preferment. " Having once conce i ve d an opinion decidedly ft 'l4 unfavourable of any man or • set of men, It is not unnatural to give every circumstance regard' ing them corresponding construction. It he accordingly been supposed, from the recent de' molition of the building in which the Chambe r of Deputies formerly held its sittings, that th e Ministry are resolved to conduct the govemmen s for the future without the assistance of tha t branch of the Legislature, and that in the go t instance the want of the building is to be assigne d as an excuse. To obviate such a pretext, th ° Chamber of Commerce have made a formal ter der to the Ministry of the splendid building le which their business is conducted, for the se' commodation of the Chamber of Deputies, 'unti l the demolished apartments in the Palais Bourbon are restored. This offer has, howeret been rejected ; and it is said in the Ministeri Papers, that a temporary erection is to be mad ° in one of the Courts of the Palace, and that will certainly be in readiness for the reception e the Deputies by the beginning of Feb., 1830. " Divisions in the Cabinet are still the soi r ject of universal conversation. Details are even given of the immediate causes of difference, in° sl of which are too absurd for repetition. It seed' however, to be the gener a l belief that th er e be no immediate separation. The tie of nea r shy, they say, is stronger than the present ground s of dissension. " Accounts from St. Petersburgh, of the 25th ult., give the details of the public reception, hi the Emperor Nicholas, of Prince Khosrel' Mirza, Ambassador Extraordinary from th e Court of Persia, who presented letters from th e Shah, and from Prince Abbas•Mirza, to th e Emperor, on the subj e ct of th e assass i na tion ! the Russian Ambassador in the Persian ter tory. The audience appears to have been coo' ducted with a great deal of state and ceremoni ; and from the answer which was delivered the Russian Vice-Chancellor, in the name the Emperor, it is to be presumed that th e obstacles to a reconciliation between the 1 1° Courts are now in a great measure removed. 3 " The Emperor, my au gus t M as t er , cherg e . me to assure your R o y a l Hi g h ness t h a t it ig 4 , with sentiments of the liveliest satisfaction h e " receives the explanations you have give ° g, 6 and the testimonies of regret which y o u bring! , ‘" to him on the part of your Sovereign. 11 ig magnanimous heart cou ld no t b u t b e seio j v 4" with horror at an out rage comm itt e d wit h " the guilty design of again disuniting 0° " neighbouring powers already a l mos t re coil' " cited.

" cognize as independent, provided the tribute is equal to the taxes formerly levied there. On these terms the Porte will consent punctually to execute the Treaty of Ackertnann, and to open the Bosphorus to the commerce of Russia. The progress of the... Ru ssian arms will probably make the Porte change its tone. The following statement will show, how ever, the degree of its infatuation and insensibility to the situation in which it is, and to its own weakness. When Baron Muffling, who arrived here ill on the 4th of August, was pre sented to the Reis Effendi some days after wards, the later expressed his surprise that he should make so long a journey in such a state of health, merely to show the Porte the necessity of making peace, and he (the Reis Effendi) did not conceive what interest other nations could have in the differences between Russia and the Porte, or think so much of them,as nothing extraordinary had occurred, and the good understanding of the two Courts had merely experienced a temporary inter ruption. Ile spoke as if peace still subsisted, and only the diplomatic relations were disturbed. The General is said to have shown some surprise, and to have observed that cannon balls had been exchanged. To ►which the Reis Effendi replied, " Those are every day occurrences, and of no importance." In the second conference the Reis Effendi is said to have taken a different view of the event, but to have expressed himself in a manner not calculated to give a high idea of Turkish diplomacy. Another letter from Pera, on the contrary, says, that the Grand Vizier is commissioned to negotiate with General Diebitsch, on the basis of the condi tions brought by General Muffling, and that the lat ter, ►whose health ►was restored, intended to set out on the Ist of September, to return home by way of Malta and Genoa.— Allgemeine Zeitung, Sept. 7. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. (From the Message,. des Chambres--2d edition.) ADRIANOPLE, AUG. 21.—(Letter of a Russian Officer.)—Yesterday morning our army took posses sion of this second city of the empire. The few Turkish troops that had been left to defend the city had already left it, and dispersed; some cossacks were sent in pursuit of them. The greatest tran quillity prevailed at our entrance, which was fa voured by the finest weather. Many of the inhabi tants had come to meet us, and on our entering the city the whole population flocked together to see the troops. A division of riulans formed, followed by a division of Chasceurs on foot, with two com panies of artillery, and then the whole army, the General in Chief tiding in front. The band of each regiment played the Russian national air, and when the Commander in Chief stopped at the old sera glio to see the troops file off, the men sa luted him with loud huzzas. Universal asto nishment seized the Tuiks at the sight of our troops, who passed through them with an order which they had never seen before. We, too, were struck at the strange sight of the thousands of peo ple in the oriental costume who crowded the streets. After the army had passed, several battalions were stationed in the market places and squares in the in terior of the city, and the General took his quarters in the old seraglio. 'A deputation of the principal inhabitants led by the chief Mollah, as well as all the Consuls residing here, waited upon the General. They first solicited his protection, thanked him in the name of their fellow-citizens, for having left the judicial power in their hands, and promised to do their utmost to preserve tranquillity. We en joy the most friendly reception, and find every where greater advances in civilization than we generally expect among the Turks. * # * The situation of Adrianople is extremely delightful. The banks of the Maritza, which here receives the Tundsche and the Arda, are covered with rose bushes. The city is surrounded with walls, arid has 11 gates. It has a square citadel, with four round and 12 other towers. In the cita del is an arsenal, and the different quarters of the city are united together by 13 bridges over the Tundsche and Arda. We entered Adrianople to the number of 28,000 men; only 5,000 have re mained in the city. The remainder have been en camped in the environs, or sent forward ten leagues on the road to Constantinople.
