CONSTANTINOPLE, AUG. 12.-0-The disgrace of the Grand Seignior's Barber is the principal sub ject of conversation in the seraglio.

OTRANTO, SEPT. 8.--The American ship which en e hOred in our port has sailed for Naples. We are assured that die American .sciadron• will go 'to Cot fu.---''lira wt.; French ships have entered our port, they have brought the news of the defeat of the Dey of Algiers by the English squadron. They aid not meet with any pirates. It appears that those who yet keep the sea unite.together to *Mid surprise. The time then is, past when the pirates could insult our coasts and the flags of all the nations. 'There Are several reports concerning arrange s...tents made b‘t the Americans with our King. Lk HATE, SEPT. 16.- -The captives of the Ne therlands who were in slavery at Algiers, on the 31st of August, were on board the ship of the Vice•Adiniral,Van de Capeilen, who had appoint ed the frigate Dageraad to take them to their own conutry. The corvette Concorde has been sent try Marseilles to bring away the ,Consui. Frais. sinet. VIRNNA, SEPT. 9.—lf we share in the impa tience with which the result of the English rxpe aphifit the pirates it'expected, it at least is not from mere curiosity,' for Turkey is chiefly interested therein,. and it is important to us to observe the attitude assumed by our neighbours, at the moment when a foeeign power is attempt int; to chastise their vassals. A very general pct.- suasion prevails, that the total annihilation of Ike ;Moorish empire on the coast of Africa would give tise to very complicated negoeiations, and to dis utes which might not remain entirely diplomatic. We are, however, tranquillized by the belief that the commercial policy of Elte -,English wilt pro bably be satisfied with the destruction of the ma tine of the pirates, which will doubtless be suffi cient for the peace of tt.;-ope, whatever may in other respects be the prayers, the wishes, and the st romeots of cosmopolites, the Iriends of eivi liz.ition; whose views enibrace the future and the present. GERMAN IN I'ELLIGENCE. A Hawburgh Paper states, that in consepteoce of the high price of provisions in the South of Uerinany, and the fears of a dearth, the Austrian (;overument had prohibited the export ut provi sions by Salzburg, mid the adjoining confines" into B.tvarla. From the same goarter we learn, that the Elector of Hesse has entered upon a proceeding Which has given great alarm to many of his sub jects, During the Elector's Absence from his States, which were merged in what was called the kingdom of Westphalia, considerable sales of. tuitional &manta took place, the possession of which was supposed to be secured to the pur chasers, ns has been the case in other parts of •Jcurope, The estate,of Freycithagen, part cl these domains, was purchased by . a Mr. Sehrei -Vet. b.:t the Occult. thonght proper to reclaim witlrout offering any indeinnity. Mr. Schreiber anwltrely refused to relinquish possession. It was (he) determined to employ force, and the i Electoral upper lient-Clramher sent Counsellor 13E4:thriller with ten hussars, to take Military pos it-pion of the property. Mr. ,Schreiber could hot of coarse resist this armed force, hut 1w adopted another Coll,rse by applying to the ,A;, mea l Court at Cassel, where lee received sat Wee t4on. That Court of at US; kC 193 tied, at the in mallet; Of Mr. ,Sebteiber; a formal inhibition . - ttgajost all forcible prtice!etlings„. and Mr. Conn s.ellor Habanero with his ten hussars, was com pelled to relinquish his extva-indicial occupation.

A new ground of discord has arisen between the States of Wurtemberg and the Xing, - lh Con sequence of the arrest of a merchantlaffleilhron, a native lVtirtembergliet, ofthe name of Seytiardt. The States, in a reptesentation on the sahject to his Majesty, set forth that this arrest took place at an ina at Baden, by a soldier of the Baden police, who brought him in custody to the police o f Stuttgart!. They compl Ai n also that the papers 'of Mr. Seyffardt were seized At Heil hron by an order from the Royal Cabinet, sealed up and transmitted to the Stuttgart( po - The Stares assert that the proceeding is in consistent with the farms of law, and that no citizen can he withdrawn from the jurisdiction of his lawful judges. They therefoie pray- his Ma jesty to suspend the further proceedingi of the police against Seyfrattit, and that the affair may be referred to the competent 'tribunal. it is re potted that Seyffardt is•charged with having put into a post-office a packet, in which, under cover to the Grand Duke of Baden, was enclosed a pamphlet, criticising the Government of Baden ; hut whether he was aware of the contents of the packet is unknown. The hx•King of Sweden resides at present at Ilanan, under the name of Gustafson. He lives in great privacy, and has only two persons in his house—a Turk Who acts as his servant, and a fvinale. The King of Saxony, by an instrument dated the 14th of 3uly, Jos acceded to what is called the Ugly Alliance, on the invitation of the Em peror. Alexander. The GCriliall ntanufactrtrers, it is said, have a very poor prospect at the present Frankfort fair, in con,,ctitience of the inundation of English goods.

The Communication which we submitted, PROM AUTiionITY, to our Readers on Saturday last, respecting the Silver Coinage, though a ge neral confidence in this Paper in ta,great degree tended to quiet , the alarms of the People„ bus not, we find, fully removed all anxiety on the subject. The great cause of uneasiness, we an del-stand, is the difficulty of distinguishing those Shillings anti Sixpences which are plain, anti the real Currencyof the Realm from those - that are not So. We, therefore, resume the subject with plea ante, as indeed it. is our duty-to do, innrilet4o re , move and obviate all apprehensions arising from susitence and.doubt. We therefore here aUtlid rity to assure the irublic at large, that a num- . her of persons, amounting, we believe, to twenty four, are constanq employed at the Bank in discri minating, as far as it is poisible to be done, the Plain Silver, which is the Currency of the !Icahn, from that which is not so.. The persons who Lave this task tsilotted to them possess a de gree of sagacity, derived 'from practice:and expe rience, which enables them in a great measure to ascertain the true Coinage from the surreptitious. it must, be evident that there must be different degrees of this sagacity among the several persons who are so employed, and conseqttentirit may happen that Coinage may be rejected One' day and received the next, but we are assured that no par • tiality, caprice, or any motive but what arises ft out a severe sense of duty,operateson any of these persons. All the real Coinage thus examined and received at the Bank will he'exchanged for the new Silver Currency, which will be: issued in February, and Bank Tokens in the meats. time Will . be given in exchange. This atatemeot must be perfectly sa tisfactory, to all good and reasonable men, for it never can be. supposed "hat surreptitiouS Coinage or the Currency of France, anti other countries, far inferior, even itSilver, will be sanctioned ip Great Britain. if that were the case, we should. offer A Boutcry for felonious •Coinagi., or set :Artificers abroad to work and produce tot :enortitous tatton of Foreign Currency, in all respects inferfor to our own. One of the Paris Papen 4, thole of the 22'il and 23d having readied us since yesterday, cont 'aina a most contemptible apology for the setzta e of (MA' irt3Atintt - tAz4b . Patnpillet. It says that this !al Step was legally justified because the printer had not delivered the n u mber of copies speciAed by thie 'Charter previous to publica atm. It is not likely that afora of this * Mud would be neglected by M tie C. or his primer; but the Police, by stepping in pre tious to ptiblidation, end scepicitrating an the copies, Would at any rate put it out of their power to obey the law, and, - as it seems, 'in the power of their persecutors to punish them fur not doing what their own oppressive act prevented. These . Papers contain, however, one satisfac- tory statement, 'namely, that the Commissioners, appointed by the Allied and French Governments . to setperintend the payment of contributions un der the Treaty of Peace, have ascertained that these ha./e been strictly made to the 31st of July last ; and that the ►laily payments for the cur rent six months are continued with the same exactness. At the end of this period there will be another Verification or Audit. In different countries different matters are poli tically important. No topic short of " Universal Ruin," " National Ba►►kruptcy," or at the least " the Bombardment of a City," or" Stoppage of the Coin no lc,►►ger current," can rouse Juhn Bull from his lethargic speculations. In Con-; stantinople, on the other hand, the dismissal of the Sultan's Bather has set all the tongues in the Sera glio, and all the beards in. the City, in motion. It is a prodigious event.
