IVEDIS- Be DA 6, P.M

The prevailing belief hi raris at this moment is
that the whole of the fleets have been summoned
to ConetAhnnople, if not
,actually there; but thOse

nench politicians who consult the English journals,
and imagined that, Are i oYiiiYig Post had better
diplomatic information than its colleagues, haye
had thtir. with much shaken by the failure of its
ill-advised and too confident predictiOn, twice

• We read, in the Consritutionnel, the arrival of our
correspondence of the 15th, brought, by the,
steamer, enables us to fill up soul d OriliOioslnthe
note Of the/tionhW, "It Was thi the night Of SatOi:

and in the 13th and lath two 'ships of each squadron
Made their appearance ; the English ships Niger
and Tiger, and the French steam-frigates Mogador
and Gomer. On board of this latter was the Ad-
miral Labarbier de Tinan, who then found himself

in command, not only of the four shipsabove-mew-
tiOned, but of six other steam-shills Which were aF
ready at Constantinople, the frigate Retribu-
tion and the, corvette Fury and Caradoc, express

vette Le Chaptal, and the apresslAjaccio, for the.
French..

• The ttd'hicii des Debats gives also in a postscript,
ekti'acts from letters brought by the Nile steamer,
by which it would appear that an address was really
'presented to the Sultan by certain Muderi.or Pro-
fessors of the Coran, demanding War with the in
fidels and quoting VerS:oB from • the Coran in sup-
port of theii' Argun-leiitn. ft was, however soon
diseotiered that they'Were in collusion with the
party of war.a tout prix, which is headed by Mehe-
met Ali, the brother-in-law of the Sultan. They
were consequently rebuked by the -Seheik-ul-Islam;
but. the Ambassadors had become more alarmed
than usual about the safety of the French and Eng-
lish residents, so M de la Cour obtained Hit eon-
sent of the Sultan to sttinnion Nat tit the fleet.

TM Steck, almost the Only journal which. main-
tains 11, sort of independence, and writes freely in
spite of government censures, endeavours to set
the advance of the fleets in its true light, andmain-
tains that the safety of Christian residents has never
been in peril at Constantinople, attributing all
reports of this nature to Russian intrigue. It says :
" Some firm but respectful remonstrances may
have been addressed to the Sultan, at the time
when two members of the Divan counselled him
to submit blindly to the dictates of diplomatists,
bid since the rejection of the Viemia note, lie has
recovered all his popularity. The • advance of the
fleets is a reply to the last memorandum of Russia,
and to the conferences at Olmutk."

The Moniteur publishes, in its official part, two
treaties, one relatinc, to works of art with the
Elector of Hesse, and other a postal treaty with
the King of Naples.
.. Dispatches from Madrid of the 24th, anounce
that " the question of Marshal Narvaez has been
decided. He may return to Spain when he thinks
fit."

The Hamburgh correspondent, under the date
of Vienna, says :—" We learn that the programme
of the new loan of the Austrian government would
have already appeared, had not the Minister
of Finance considered it necessary to modify it.
This having been done, it will shortly be published.
The loan will be contracted abroad; and will be for
30 millions of florins.

The market opened at higher prices, but fell
rapidly on the receipt of the English quotations
The prices for the account are however much lower
than for cash. Closing prices :—Three per Cents.,

The Moiwing Chronicle's Paris correspondent says
that intelligence arrived in -Paris on Thursday from
Constantinople; to the 19th, via Trieste.. It states
that_ the war party and the peace party in the
Divan had become reconciled—the former appa-
rently having succeeded in getting their views
adopted, The refusal of Russia was generally
known, and the Porte still persisted in, it modifi-
cations to the Vienna Notb. The armaments
which for a short period had • seemed •to
slacken when there appeared a probability of
an amicable arrangement, had re-commenced with
redoubled activity. A quarantine had been esta-
blished against all vessels arriving . from Odessa,
under pretext that the cholera might be introduced
from that quarter ; but this step was considered
by the public as a measure of precaution against
'Russian vessels. Further, a sanitary Cordon had
been established in the direction of Widdin; this
measure being intended it was supposed, as a pre-
caution against the Russian troops, who seemed
of late to have been advancing towards that point.
This intelligence of the 19th, says nothing of the
entrance up to that date of the rest of the com-
bined squadrons.

• M. deKisseleff, on hearing of the entrance of the
vessels into,the Sea of Marmora, was heard to say,
" England and France have rendered a great
service to Russia. We had signed most unwillingly
the convention relative to the Straits, Now we
know what we ought to do. '
A letter from Erzeroum, 4of the 27th ult., an-
nounces the arrival in that city of an. extraordinary
courier from Teheran, with despatches for Con-
stantinople. It was stated as certain that Persia
.had placed at the disposal of the Sultana Ncorps of
6,000 of her best troops. This step is the more
important, as the Cabinet of St, Petersburg has
employed every means to isolate Persia from
Turkey.

On Thursday last, Alderman Sidney was elected
Lord Mayor of London for the ensuing year.

Dispatches were received at the' Colonial Office
on Thursday, from the Governors of Van Dieman's Land,
Melbourne, the Mauritius, the Cape of Good Hope, and
Natal.

Despatches were sent off last evening from the
Colonial Office to the ;Governors of the North American
colonies.

THE ORLEANS FAMILY.—The ex-Queen of the
French, accompanied by the Prince and Princess of Join-
vile, their family, the Duchess de Marmier, General Comte
Dumas,
.M. and Madame Mussy, and a numerous suite, ar-
rived at Dover on Thursday afternoon, with the intention of
embarking for Ostend, but, as it was blowing very hard,
.the royal party decided on sleeping at Birmingham's Royal
Ship Hotel.
THE SHIPPING INTEREST.—The scarcity of ships
is much complained of just now, which appears an extra-
ordinary circumstance in this maritime country, especially
as shipbuilding has been extensively carried on at all the
English ports for the last two or three years, while, at the
same time, the North American colonies 'have not been idle.
According to a statement forwarded to us, one firm alone in
Liverpool has sold, within the last month, upwards of ninety
colonial-built ships, large and small; and. at Sunderland
and elsewhere shipbuilding has been going on as extensively
as usual for some time past. The existing scarcity of ship-
ping may be accounted for chiefly from the new trade
opened with our Australian colonies, and the extension of
steam navigation to distant countries. The extraordinary
influx of people into Australia has naturaliy created a sud-
den and extensive demand for shipping, not only for the
purpose of emigration, but for the supply of the emigrants
in what might be considered a new country ; for Australia,
although it has been for nearly half a century a British
colony, was in no way prepared to supply the large popu-
lation that so suddenly and unexpectedly flocked in upon
it. It followed that the demand for tonnage must be
great beyond precedent, and up to the present time it has
very little abated. Another circumstances attending this
new trade, which would create a temporary scarcity, is the
length of the voyage ; and, in many instances, ships after
making the passage to Australia, have been detained there
for mouths, through the desertion of the seaman ; some of the
ships have been altogether lost to their. owners, as in the
case of the Californian trade, which has also contributed to
the scarcity. To these trades, therefore, is, in the first in-
stance, to be attributed, the temporary difficulty in
.getting
the required tonnage. The increase of steam navigation,
and the consequent demand for coals for foreign stations, is
another cause of the scarcity. Indeed it has been found
impossible to supply many of the intermediate ports, between
this country and Australia with the coals required; this has
frequently been attended with loss and detention to the steam
vessels engaged in that trade, and has enabled ships which
trusted to canvas alone to make quicker passages. These, we
think, will be found the prominent causes to which may be
attributed the scarcity of shipping which is at present com-
plained of. The country was not prepared for such unex-
pected demands coming so suddenly \upon it.—Shipping
