LONDON. FRIDAY, JULY 28, 1826.

We have received the French Papers of Tuesday and
the P.:toile of Wednesday. From the latter we make a very
long extract, under the date of Constantinople, June 26,
by which it appears that the success of the measures adopted
for the suppression of the revolt of the Janissaries, as well
as that of the stew scheme for changing their organization,
has been in every respect complete. Our extracts, parti-
cularly from the Constitutionntl, have run to such lergth,
that we have been obliged to postpone several articles of
domestic intelligence.
[From rEloikt dated Jul S, 26.]
lONSTANTiatOrLE, JUNE 26.
Since the 13th, Sultan Mahn-mud has always been dressed in
the Egyptian costume, a military habit, equally rich and elegant.
The Coonk is no longer worn,
_except by the Ministers and heads
of departments. It is displaced by a shawl. It seems beyond a
doubt that the Sultan came out of the Seraglio in this dress on the
day when the dangr r was so great. They talk of reforms and an
entire alteration of the Government ; every thing is to assume a
new face. Three thousand men from Romelia have entered the
capital; they wore the Albanian dress. The Armenian Patriarch
has received orders to send to Asia for 2,000 of his nation. to
serve as guards to the bazars and the &listen, and as porters in the
service of the Admiralty (11ammals). Executions and banish,
ments continue. The officers of the Seraglio themselves are sub-
jected to the most rigorous inquiry ; the oldest servants are trot
*pared if they are found to act contrary to the orders of the Govern-
ment.
The corps of firemen is renewed ; it will be composed of Anne.
Mans, under the command of the ex-Ousta of the 57th Legion.
The corps of artillery will also be re-organized. The uniform will be
changed, and the old names replaced by others analogous to those
of General, Colonel, Captain, &c. The most severe prohibitions
are renewed against affording an asylum to the Irebels. Whoever.
after the term of eight days, shall have harboured a fugitive, will
himself be hanged, if any one is discovered in the domiciliary
visite which will be made at dust time.
Dawoud Pacha will becomt an immense barrack of 100,000
square pikes (in extent a pike is twenty-eight inches). The work is
already carrying on with great activity, and 300 soldiers superin-
tend and protect the labourers. The new mosque of Topkhana,
built at the expense of the Sultan after the fire of the Ist of March,
1023, and which lied been called :Wile (the Just), has just been
distinguished by the name of Felhy Sultan Mahmoutl (Sultan
31ahriroud Conqueror).
There has been no execution to-day, hut sentences of banishment
continue to restore to agriculture, men who lived at Constantinople
at the expense of the people.
Ills flightless, when he went on Friday to prayers, in the
mosque of Parli Pacha, at Topkhana. saluted with a gracious
smile the faithful Topchis, who formed a double line, armed with
muskets.
The Convents of the Ilikbachis are being pulled down, the
founder of which consecrated, above 400 years ago, the institution of
the proscribed cotps. The coffee-houses at Galata and Constanti-
nople, which were the haunts and the asylum of the evil-minded,are
being demolished. A great number of shops, which are of no teal
use, a e put down ; reduction is made in the number of men at.
tacl;ed to them, and who are not indispensably necessary.
The Seraskier and the President-General of the new army are
usefully employed in its organization. They ask for all the infor-
mation that can guide thems and are everywhere inquiring fur
French books. to derive from them examples and morals.
The Sultan has ordered a manufactory of arms to be established,
on a scale sufficiently large to supply all the wants of the empire.
For the present the corps of armoutera must finish every week 300
muskets and bayonets. The ex-llostangi is appoin et( inspector of
the works at Dawoud Pacha', which are to be terminated in forty
days. lie also commands 300 men, who guard the avenues of the
capital.
Jussuf Pacha, son of Ismael. Bey of Veres, hes entered Con•
stantinople at the head of 600 Albanians. It is said that he has
left behind him 6,000 men of the same nation. The palaces and
houses of the Franks, which have not yet hung out a light, as
others have done, have been called upon to do it. All the streets
are now well lighted (luring the night, and afford a very new sight
in this country. On the '22d the Reis Effendi had sent for the in.
terpreters of the European Legation, to claim the Janissaries
attached to them, under the title of Vaasaktchis, as guards, sig.
nifying that they would be replaced by other gourds, chosen by
the new authorities.
't he Yassaktchis, a great number of whom have been for many
- merited the confidence of the lege-
