LONDON,

FRIDAY. DICBIIB4II 28, 1821.
The Paris Papers of Sunday and Monday last,
which base arrived at oar office, give us very suffi-
cient miens to believe that a revolution has been
effected at Constantioople, and that the Sultan, his
Son, and his favourite Minister, have fallen victims
to the fury of (lie Janissaries. The character of the
Ottoman Government and the experience of its ,
history prevent us from feeling any surprise at such
an occurrence. The Sovereign who rests his au-
thority upon the power of the sword, holds hi. life
at the auffetasee of military caprice. As a lesson
to Monwreho, this ought to he attended with salt:-
tory effects, yet the frequency with which we find
it repeated in the history of every military despo-
tism proves that iltimigh it may terrify it does not
deter.
-.7The iusurreetion of the Jinja*, ies is said to have
-cosimenced en the 2641 of the last luonth, and to
have continued during the two following drys.
The Sultas , we are told, met his fete with courage,
sod encimotered the traitors at the head of a fa-
vourite body of troops whom lie had caused to be
disciplined after the European manner. The
Janissaries, however, were finally 'Deceitful, and,
as some accounts say, celebrated their triumph by
an iudieerimieate alosiaere of Jews and Chrittiuns.
This settiiiireii though not improbable, "re hope is
sot eotreet. The murder 6f the Sultan did not,
