TURKEY.

On the Turkish differences with Franco, the
Journal de Constantinople, of the 19th ult. says:
It is with pleasure that that we announce thst the differ-
ent questions pending between Turkey and France received,
ou Monday last, a solution in conformity with the spirit of
equity of the Sublime Porte, and the good relations which
exist between the two states. This soluti in, which will no
doubt have for effect to draw those relations still closer, was
trensm,tted the same day to the Marquis de Laviette,
ambassador of France, who, the day after, at about five
o'clock In the evening, Bent off the steamer, the Chaptal, to
convey it to his government.
We read in the State Gazette :
His Imperial Majesty the Sultan having taken the happy
resolution of placing the Tanis neat in vigour in Egypt, as in
all the other provinces of the empire, sent, some time ago,
Fund Effendi to Egypt, charged with the mission of con-
certing with the eeveraorgeseral on the modifications re-
quired by the state of the province. Fuad Effendi, after his
arrival in Egypt, discussed with the governor-gene-
ral the different modes of executing the lanai-
mat ; and when his mission was fulfilled accord-
Mg to the will of his Imperial Majesty, he returned.
After the conference which took place here, on the
state of Egypt with Edhem Paths, and Hairedden
Pasha, who were summoned to Constantinople in virtue of
an imperial ordonnsnee, a series of regulations were drawn
up, and the Sumac relative thereto has emanated from the
imperial will. Afif Bey, vice-chancellor of the imperial
Divan, has been charged to convey this firtran to Egypt,
and the mission of &them l'acha and Hairedden
Pacha being terminated, they have had the honour to
present their homages to his Imperial Mejesty, who bas
been kind enough to allow them to returu to Egypt, and
to give them on the occasion a mark of his munificeuce, in
according to each a snuff-box set with diamonds. The
seal and exertions of Abbas Paella on the occasion of the
bringing into vigour of the tansimat in Egypt, have con-
firmed the sincerity of his submission to the imperial throne,
and have consequently deserved the high satisfaction of his
Miesty the Soften, our august master.
Bands of brigands, fully armed, continued to
commit numerous robberies and crimes in Constan-
tinople; and had violently resisted the police.
' Energetic measures had been taken by , the new
minister of police, liairedden Pacha.
• Nakim Pacha ad been nominated grand master of
the artillery, and Selim Pacha general-in-chief of the
imperial guard. Said Pacha, son of the late Mehe-
met Ali, had had an audience of tho Sultan, and
been very kindly received. Troops had been sent
off to Candice, and their arrival calmed the agita-
tion, which had for some time existed in the
island. The Journal de Constantinople announces
the arrival in the Dardanelles, on the 17th, of the
English corvette, the Modesto, 20 guns, from Corfu.
This journal makes no mention of the vessel having
been tired on by the Turks, as circumstantially re-
in the Trieste Garda, but says that, on the
9th the Modesto saluted the fort, and the salute was
duly returned. She waited for permission to pro-
ceed to Constantinople, and having obtained it, ar-
rived there on the 20th.

COTTON FROM WZIMIRS AntlCt.—A year or two
ago our esteemed terousaus. Mr. T. Clegg, put himself in
communication with the Char& Missionary Society with a
view to lad tees M hake practical measures to convince
the native shish is lint district of Western Africa', which
Is in the weighlowtheed of Sierra Leone, that it would be
more predtsbis to employ *air people in growing and col-
lecting masa thew to sell then as slaves ; and Mr.
Cl.n WWI OD risk 111111. la giving. the thing a sten.
He imam wee 4110 SIMI Of dues pas, • cleaning ma-
thins emit at idialtrage. and • charka; and he has
slate Isrwarded a farther supply of these instruments,
wadi too, oases
,seed, and every other
requiste"l.lthEr. =has also availed himself of the op-
portunity 'fantod by the visit of one or two missionaries
of the Church Miwicsuy Society to Manchester to show
them the processes of cleaning and preparing cotton,
and to interest them in the matter; and be has succeeded in
causing agents to be employed at Slurs Leone, in going
shout the country buying cotton wherever it can be obtained,
from anyone who will be at the trouble of picking it up;
and to notify that cotton will be bought in any quantity, on
application made in certain accessible quarters. Thus tar
the agents thus put at work have been very successful ; in-
deed they have, within a very short part of the present sea-
son, purchased to this manner Io,ooolb. weight of indige-
nous cones, grown entirely without cultivation. The agents
say that as they have invariably bought all the cotton that
had been offered to them, the natives are now becoming
widely aware of the market for that article which exist',
and are becoming animated in the eager desire to
engage in the collection and sale of it; so much,
indeed, is this found to be the case, that the mission-
aries, who have hitherto superintended the transactions,
declare themselves quite unable any longer to manage the
matter, owing to its increased calls oa their time ; they have
therefore requited Mr. Clegg to send over an agent to de.
vote his whole attention to it, and Mr. Clegg is now in quest
of a suitable young man to undertake this responsibility.
Lady Buxton, widow of Sir E. Buxton, the late well•known
philanthropist, has also taken considerable interest in the
profitable employment of the poor natives of Western
Africa, and has placed 6W. at the disposal of the African
Improvement Society for the furtherance of this object.
Daring the last few days, Mr. Clegg has received a first
consignment of nine bales of cotton from Sierra Leone,
and tour of these are sent as being purchased by part of
lady Buxton's contribution to the African Improvement
I Society. Further consignments are expected to arrive
shortly ; and the agents on the spot write that enough has
been done to ensure complete success in the cultivation of
' cotton in that district, should the efforts already made be
properly supplemented by continued exertions. Samples
of the eon, n which has thus come into Mr. Clegg's hands
were yesterday exhibited on the Manchester Exchange ;
the quality is considered to be a little better than "good"
Orleans, u far as staple goes; and in Liverpool the cotton
is valued at about 7d. per lb., although some consider it
worth less and others worth much more. Several parties
offered 6d. for it yesterday in Manchester, but the only
lots that have yet been sold have realised 7d.—Manchester

VAUXIIALL.—Last night Mr. Green, the veteran
aeronaut, took his benefit, and made his five hundredth
ascent, from these gardens, accompanied by right persons.
Just as the balloon was liberated six cannon were fired in
honour of the event, and the cheers of the spectators were
not wanting to encourage the hardy veteran in what was
announced as his last trip. As the Nassau was ascending
another balloon appeared over the Vauxhall Gardena,
which was supposed to have ascended from North Wool-
wich, and both went in company in a westerly direction, the
wind blowing rather freshly at the time.
