with much solemnity at Jassy.
It is said, but without warranting the fact, that the Russian Con-
sul lately arrived in that city, went out to meet them.

Getters from Madrid of the 20th July fay—
" A band of 20 or 25 horsemen stopped and plundered, a few
days ego, near Cordova, three casks loaded with tobacco, on their
way from Cadiz to Madrid. Pursuit is made after the rubbers,
who are supposed to be snaeglers.
" A Sardinian merchantman, having lately ailed from Corunna,
to take in a cargo of oxen at Cantarintia, was visited off Gape Villano
by the Trinity, Colombian schooner. The privateer recognised
among the passengers an officer of the Royal Spentsh Navy ; they
seized him, stripped him of all I , pone-seed, and then put him on
shore near Cantarinas, whence he has returned to Corunna. Ile uf-
firms, that while he was on board the Trinity, that privateer stopped
and visited an English vessel, bound from Marseilles to Brest. It
is arid that it took out of the Sardinian schooner 4,000 piastres,
belongirm to a smuggler of the same nation, who immediately put
to sea in chase of the privateer.
" On the Ist of Angled, at two o'clock in the afternoon, the

The letters from Jassy soy that the Russian negotiators. before
their arrival at Ackermann, had several conferences with Generals
Sahenief and Knelteneff, at the head-quarters of the Reisman army
in Bessarabia. The advanced posts of this army, which were placed
towards the extreme homier, have fallen buck, and it is said they will
remein where they now are during the whole of the negotim iota.
The Jnni mil nf Elie Two if odilt bas the following article, in the
number of the lath July :
" The Mexican Government Sas forbidden all English ships of
the Royal Navy to anchor under the fort of St. Juan di:Boa, or
even to moor there; but they may do bath et the Isle of Sacriticios. It
seems that this measure has been suggested by the fear that they
may attempt to seize upon it, and make it another Gibraltar.
Whether these fears are well founded or not, it is certain that the
city of Vera Cruz has asked of the Government that this riot should
be demolished, but this request has been rejected.

CONSTANTINOPLE, JULY 12.
TI c public discontent increases, end shows itself even in the
capitel, where nothing but the presence of the Sultan, who is con-
• Int.•!y on horseback, maintains the appearance of tranquillity.
Ile strikes elf heads, proscribes, mutilates, and tonliscates the
1-r rocrty of the condemned and the proscribed, which he distributes
ammo; the soldiery ; but the eaccutions and pillage must goon come
to an end. In the meantime the struggle becomes organized, and
it is knewn that certain unfaithful guards have sold a very con.
siderible quantity of arms, which have been transported and de-
lis ;:ctl at the morance of the Black Sea. A thousand contradic-
tory rumours arc in ciretMo ion. Sometimes it is maintained that
I the Janissaries it: the d frerent titles of the empire have entirely
I 'submitted ; and sometimes it is asserted that a general revolt has
telren place. Teis last version is the most probable ; we say aro-
' betble, foram communications between the provinces of Turkey in
Europe and the capital have ceased, and it is only by indirect
means that the Government itself is informed of what passes. It
tneot, however, be denied that the Janissaries of Philipopolis, of
Deena, of 'Ft urnovo, of Si:istlia, and of Itudschuk, are in open
revolt. and that they have massacred the Arnett* supposed to be
favourable to the authority of the Sultan. The news which has
arrived by a boat sent from Enos, states that there were serious
disco indices at Adrianople. An insurrection was even dreaded at
tee Devitt,' ellee, where the Janissaries are in force. We have to
al', that a foreign naval squadron, which cruizes at the entrance of
the liehlespunt, Kivu great alarm to the Turks, and that die Divan

earies trap. oral to Asia turned for;donts (robbers) as soon as
they were at a sufficient distance from the teethe' to be able to
unit?, and to form themselves into companies. They have elected
Chiefs and a sort of Government, composed of licktaelgi Der-
vi.hes. They ore now in cerreepondence with all the great towns
of A natelia, where tire Sultan is considered as a gamete, or infidel.
ee-ch is the CGtlTrie of events up to this date ; and public opinion is
sJ decidedly pronounced against the destruction or the Janissaries,
that it is probable that the new system will soon fall on the heads
of its adherents, whatever may be the rank a Welt they occupy.
The news from lemma concerning which people seem now only
to feel a seem:el:try interest, is, that Ibrahim Pacha, finding it int-
po able to me:sr:lke any thing, leis determined to retire on Coror.,
where lee lens co me orate' ail the remains of his forces. The plague

son is row re hirel to 700 men. Private accounts announce that
Colonel Fabvier has caused the fortifications of Nauplis and 310-
nemb ssia to be repaired, while he has provisioned the fortresses so
as not to fear a siege, which may be protracted to eternity, if the
Turks determine to undertake it. Commerce exists no longer, ex-
cept in recollection. No business is done, but for ready money,
and for Utley of the first necessity. Thus, the Russians hive
goell reasons for not being is haste to come to an accommodation
with Constantinople, for foreigners have before this almost lost the
habit of going to Odessa to purchase corn. That port had fallen
off very much during the last five years, and it is to be presumed
that its importance, inste el of being recovered, will go on di.
mintshing. In the midst of the scenes which deluge this city
with blood, we have been witnesses to an episode, which
may be called the afterpiece of this great drama, although it does
not conclude it. AI. FAbin arrived here sonic time ago with the
produce of the collections made for the fathers of the Holy Land,
(with whom, by way of parenthesis, be has no connexion, for he
does not know a word of Turkish or Arabic) to preach the Gospel
to the people of Syria. Ile distributed, on his arrival here, a litho.

are vii he spoke of nothing but the legitimacy of the Sultan, which
he had proclaimed, as lie said, from the seat of truth. His language
was a continued fire of invectives against the Greeks, of triumphant
expressions in favour of the Jesuits, who would have changed the
face of the East, by putting the insurgents once more under the
orthodox sabre of Malimoud 11. Nothing was wanting for that

We observe that a Requisition has been addressed to the
Loan MAYOR, to induce him to call a meeting for the pur-
poce of petitioning his MA, Esry to call Parliament toge-
ther as speedily as postiible. It may be worth while to in-
quire what hopes might reasonably be entertained of relief,
in the present state of the country, from any discussions
which could arise in our Legislative Assemblies. In a
case where there is am' doubt, where there could be a
possibility of mistake, or where his Majesty's Ministers
could not act with effect withoat the concurrence of
the Legislature, it would certainly be advisable to call to-
gether the Representatives of the Nation, and to act ac-
cording to their suggestions; but the distress which has
taken place In the country is so much the result of,
causes which lie beyond the reach of legislative enact,
tnenta—it is 63 completely an evil which can only be ef-
' factually cured by time and by the natural course of
