New. from IVallochia and Mn!deem, at the he.
gtoisitig of the presvitmonth, communicate the fol-
lowing information
On the tat there arrived at Bucharest a Velar (a
coitrier) -who' communicated to Kiaja Poch* im-
portaut orders. The Packs proceeded ou the even-
ing of the same day, its company with the Commis-
- 14,y-inspector Radecki Emin Aga, in haste to Si-
bland. Before lie departed, however, he ordered
the chiefs of the Asiatic troops to be usembled,
acid commanded them to hold themselves in readi-
ness for their departure towards home.
On the 4'l just. the Com misaary-I nrpector return-
ed from, Ss'lstria to Bucharest, and on the following
alsy early, proceeded in great haste to Jassy. On
the 6sh Kiaja Pacha returned and renewed the or-
ders which before his departure he had given for a
retreat. On the same day, officers of Government
were posted on the roads which lead from Bucha-
rest and Fokshast to Silistrie, who were charod to
prepare for the accommodation and provisioning of
the retiring troops. On the Bth instant they began
• Owns march homewards. A division, consisting of
five hundred and seventrfour Toners, formed the
van; early on the morning of the 9th, there moved
away a column of 500 Asiatics, who were to be fol-
lowed daily by an equ•l number till the whole of
the unpaid troops shall be withdrawn. The num•
ber of paid troops remaining behind will likewise
immediately begin their retreat, as the Porte has
resolved to withdraw the nailed forces frum both
principalities.
In Js•sy, on the 3d instant, a finnan, at first
kept private, was received, which, however, early
on the following day excited the universal expecta-
tion of the departure of the Turkish troops, for
which event the people were prepared by the trios-
fer of the artillery to Silistria, which hod a few
days before arrived from Brahilow at Jassy.
The arrival on the Sth of the Comrnissary-leapec-
xor from Bucharest, will lead to the execution of
the same orders in Moldavia which have already
taken place in Wallachia. Connected with there
events in Bucharest and Jassy, we have received
the following intelligence, in addittion to the news
from Constantinople of the 25th of April, communi-
cated in our paper of the 14th inst. On the 11th of
April, the Capita,, Poch* sent a flag of truce to
the island of Scio, inviting the insurgents to lay
clown their arms, and accept of the amnesty, and
requiring their decision on his proposals within the
apace of eight hours. They rejected all, and bade
defiance to danger, whilst they directed their fire
against the citadel. The Turkish garrison re-
pulsed them, and as the ships which they had
used es transports had taken to flight at the moment
when the Turkish fleet approached them, the Cepi-
tan Poch', without loss of time, landed 9,000 men.
The insurgents on the island were thus placed be-
tween two fires. The garrison descended upon them'
atom the citadel, and the troops who had landed at- ,
tacked them its the rear. In a few hour. they had
llast all their artillery, consisting of 20 field pieces,
--e;loilich were turned against them. All farther re-
instance was fruitless. The battle, so long as it
lasted, was solely maintained by the Sciotes; for
the &unions, who set on foot the expedition, had
found mesas to escape the battle, and had re-em-
barked at a distant part of the island. The da-
mage done at Scio is greet, and scarcely to be
estimated.
•On the 13th a meatture was adopted at Constan-
tinopleon the part of the Governineul, which must
contribute not a little to tranquillise the minds of
the Christians. The Tersana.Kiajani who during
the absence of the Capitals Peens, superintends
the administration of police in the capital, received
from the Porte an order to take under his special
protection the religious festivals of the Greeks during
Easter, and was made respousible that neither the
Greeks nor the Armenian. should receive any dis-
turbance or molestation during the solemnity. The
consequence was, that not only in the Greek and
Armenian churches all the religious ceremonies,
professions, and observances, were conducted with
the most perfect peace and order, but the festivities
which followed were enjoyed by the Greeks in their
aid style, and in the most uninterrupted tranquil.

On the 21st of April the Patriarch was invited tie
the palace of the Sultan. As this was the miniver..
airy of • lamentable event, the circumstance ex-
cited universal interest. When lie appeared, he
was loaded with encomiums by one of the Ministers
of the Porte, on account of some judicial decision
which he had pronounced; and received io the
name of the Sultan another considerable donation
for the repair of the damaged cathedral church. He
was afterwards directed to produce • list of all the
Sawn then resident in the capital, distinguishing
the married from the unmarried. The former
are to remain in Constantinople, the latter are to be
sent to Asia. The new dragoman of the Porte,
ileitis Effendi, is not a native of Cods, as has
been suid, but of G•Ilipoli. and has been thirty
years converted to Islamises. He is a mail of,
70 years of age. and as he is believed not to be per.
feet master of the European languages, he is to hove
a Secretary of the Atnenian persuasion. named Seced
Monasse, a person of rest knowledge: Thus
Joins Effendi, although invested with the Kaftan,
m only vice dragoman.

LAUSANNE, WAY 10.
For some time peat great attention has been ex.
cited by the new tariff which is to he laid before the
Peet Diet. If it should be adopted, the Cantons
which trade with France will be wholly ruined, while
the-German manufacturers. and the Cimions who
eerripa a direct trade with them, will be great
gatders.

LIIPIIIC. MAY IS.

The Aide-de-Camp of General Borman (former.
ly in the service of Wirteinberg). has written a
letter, dated 510th March, to a friend at Desoto.
He seems not to be so dismtisfied with the Greeks
as the officers who have returned. The following is
an estract A few day* after our arrival here
(at Navariuo) we had an opportunity of engaging the
Turks, who attacked as in our wretched fortress with
61 ships, and by land with the greater part of the gar-

lass, sad our friends even ascribe the happy issue to
'myself, because I made an unexpected sally with a

PARIS, MAY 28.
Our letters sad-papers from Germany received
yesterday are more than ever for war. We may
consider these account o much the more probable,
is they are confirmed by the reports which fur these
two days have been circulating in Paris, in collar-
quence, it is said, of the arrival of special messen-
gers direct from Vienna and St. l'etersburgh. Some
private letters have been received through this chan-
nel, one of which the following is an extract. It iv
addressed to a former Diplomatist, who is perion'•.
ally ituown to us:—
" ST. PETKRSBURGII, MAY 7.

days closeted with M. de Talisclicif, without. auy puma be-
iag able to approach hers"
To the details given in. this letter, and which we
have every reason to believe, without however being
enabled to guarantee their authenticity, we may
add that ton Sunday evening, in a diplomatic salon
of the capital, persons appearing to hr well informed,
announced that the Emperor of Russia was to set
out from St. Petersburgh the 9th May; that official
intelligence of this had arrived at Paris in the course
of the day ; that it was no lounger possible to keep
itplYy illafiou ; and that war would take place.
SMYRNA, APRIL 20.

It wits the failure of provisions that compelled
the Turks to surrender Corinth to the Greeks.
The capitulation granted to the Turks one-fourth
of their per.onal property, except their arms, and
the liberty of going to Natoli. Of Egypt, or of re-
maining in the Morro, in the latter case preserving
also one-fourth of their possessions and real pro-
perty. It is said that severel have signified a
wish to remain. Hitherto the capitrilatiou has
been faithfully observed. Only 300 Greeks were
allowed to enter the Ca.tle, and a certain number of
Commissioners to make as, inventory. Of the three-
fourths rensaiuing prAperty, one-fourth will be given
to the besieger., and two-fourths 'oilseed in the na-
tional hook. Kiamil Bey and his son (Bryn of
Corinth), taken at Tripollene, as well as several
other- Ayers of the Norma, the Kluge Bey of
Chourschid Pae!or, and herein of this Paella, are
still in the hands of the Greeks, and living. The
capture of Corinth has placed in the hands of the
Greeks several millions belonging to Kiruna Bey ;
they have been placed in the national batik.
All eyes ate rum turned to the Dardanelles. The
Greeks expect to see the storm burst upon them,
bat they appear determined to make brad against
it. It has been determined in the Morea to seLd
3,000 men to Thermopylae.
ODESSA, MAY 3.

We have accounts from Constantinople of the
27th April. Whet we have long since said is more
and more confirmed, that ;a 'dilute, can be placed
toe the tieguciations of Ike biplumatists'at Codstan-
titan*. The final reialt will probably be a great
catastrophe for the Turkish Empire.
Odysseus and Diantatite so much menace &lo-
nics, that the report was circulated at Constantino-
ple that it had actually surrendered. There ere
disturbances in Armenia, in Mesopotamia, and in
Syria. In the latter province, the Picini of St.
Jean d'Acre, who has declared himself indepen-
dent, has taken by forca of area a tribute of 800

purses villich *u vending to •the Porte, end he iv

sia. the Schuh has arrived at liersmarischsh, and
menaces Bagdad with s formidable army.
After the conquest of Sae the Capitan Pacha
set out for Samoa, in order to inflict the same late
upon that isbuid, which is not less rich or less
flourishoig. The number of Sciotes killed with
arms in their hands is estimated at 16,000, and that
of the unfortunate persona who were massacred,
though they took no part io the insurrectiuri, at
40,000.

Thirty European families arrived here the day
before yesterday from Selo, and are now in quaran-
tine. They state, that the carnage was dreadful ;
the greater part of the women have been carried oft,
