The Parts papers of Friday, and the Eti,ile of Saturday,
reached our office last night. It would appear that the
long-pending quarrel between the Ottoman and Russia is
yet far from being arranged, and that the commerce of the
latter is still subject, at Constantinople and all the Turkish
ports, to every sort of jealous delay and opposition. flow
far the patience of the ambitious Autocrat will go, a few
months may probably disclose. A Russian army, we are
persuaded, will yet answer with its cannon the feeble and
infatuated resolves of the Turkish Divan. The leading
contents of the Moniker,- and Doge will he found under-
neath. They contain little of any interest. The Monk
Saes, it appears, has• not yet left Madrid, and, like a
troubled spirit, is still haunting the scene of his late dis-
grace. Should the Holy Office be re-established, he may
hope to supersede the present Grand Inquisitor, and pre-
side over new murders within the vaults of that infernal
tribunal. The tyrant is endeavouring to organize, without
means or revenue, a Royal army, and to form his guard.
Intjo still continues indisposed. Saes is hovering, like
" the raven o'er the infected house," looking moat probably
to his sick rival's death. IL: insy as well be re-installed ;
for what can any Ministry do for wretched Spain under
such a presidency u that of the infamous Ferdinand?

It has not yet been possible to come to a formal arrangement at
Constantinople respecting the unbinding of E..ropean merchandise
intsnded for the Russian ports in the Black Sea. The Turkish
authorities require so many formalities from these ships, which are
supposed to have a right to dispense with unloading, that the
Captains rather sell their eargom than wait whole months for
leave to prosecute their voyage to the Black Sea.

Government has been secretly advised to follow this line of eon.

pretext that it is necessary to be certain that there are no Greek re.

been made to the foreign Ministers at Constantinople, who have
not failed to apply in die most energetic terms to the Reis Effendi,
but the answers have been vague and ambiguous, without any po-
sitive promise that justice shall be done.

It is still affirmed that the decrees of the Provincial Junta and
the Regency relative to the re-installation of the Royalist Munici-
palities, shall not he executed, till his Majesty shall have decided
on the mode of making the elections.
The last letters from Gibraltar say that the British Government
has forbidden all Spaniards, without exception, to enter that place,
Who have belonged to the revolutionary government ; and that in
consequence, one of the traders of that party who was repairing thi-

publicly insulted by officers of the garrison.
By a royal decision, all articles of consumption for the French
troops are to be exempt front duty, only subject to the same for-
malities as if they had paid the duties.

Frankfort Papers to the. 21 of January reached our office
yesterday. They contain accounts ;rota Caistantinople to
the Ist December. From these it app.:ars that all the re-
presentations of the Austrian Intertiiincio to the !his Er-
teal, urging the evaviation of th- two desolated principali-
ties by the Turkish bands, have been utterly useless ; every
demand has been evaded, and the ~Miner Sultan has de-
dared he will not withdraw his troops from Moldavia or
