°mod Council of the Ottoman Empire has pronounced
the deposition of the two Hospodare of Moldavia and
Wallachia. The former of these Princes, Gregory

Demetrius Stitbey, clung to power, and to him this
will be a heavy blow. While depriving the two
hoepodars of oMoe, the Grand Cuunc.l appointed a
calmacan, or viceroy of the Sultan, to govern
each of the two provinces, in the name of his
Highness, until their reorganisation under the treaty.

ROBBERY OF PICTURES, VALUED AT £1,600.

Information has been forwarded to the polio* of a

Misers. Naybour and Co., 144, °steed-street. Pictures of
some of the most celebrated masters hive been stoles, in.
