FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

VIENNA, MAt 20.—News from Walachia and
Moldavia, at the beginning of the present month,
communicate the following information :
In Ja.sy, on the 3,1 instant, a firman, at first kept
private, was received, which, however, early on the
ffflowing day excited the universal expectation of
the departute of the Turkish troops, for which event
the people were prepared-Ai/As trinatbr of the ar-
tillery to Bilistria, which had a few days Lefore
arrived from Brahilow at Jassy. The arrival on the
.sth of the Commissary-Inspector from Bucharest
will lead to the execution of the same orders in
Dloldavia which have already taken place in Wahl-

chic.•
On the 13th a measure was adopted at Constan-
tinople on the part of the Government, which must
contribute not a little to tranquillize the minds of
the Christians The Tersana•Kiajani who, during
the absence of the Capitun Paella, superintends the
administration of police in the capital, received
from the Porte an order to tike under his special
protection the religions •Festivals of the Greeks during
Easter, and was made responsible that n&ther the
Greeks run the Armenians 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
old style, and in the most uninterrupted tranquillity.
0.1 the 21st of April the Patriarch was invited
to the place of the Sultan. As this was the anni-
versury of a lamentable event, the circumstance ea-
cited universal interest. When he arrived, he was
loaded with encomiums by one of the ministers of
the Porte, on account of some judicial decision
which he had pronounced ; and receive& in the
name of the Sultan another considerable donation
for the repair of the damaged cathedral church. He
was afterwards directed to produce a list of all the
Sciotes 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,

Jahia Effendi, is not a native of Corfu, as has been

said, but of Gallipoli, and has been 80 years con-
verted to Ismalism. Ho is a man 70 years of age,
and as he is believed not to be perfect master of the
European languages, he is to have a secretary of the
Armenian persuasion, named Seced Manasse, a per-
son of great knowledge. Thus Jahia Effendi, al-
though invested with the kaftan, is only vice
dragoman.
PLTERSIDURGH, APRIL 30.—The result of the

mission of M. de Tuttscheit who is arrived here,
was already known from his principal secretary,
who was here a week before him. The Powers of
Europe will take, it is said, measures in common
with respect to Turkey, in concert with Russia,
which, it is asserted, has engaged not to act sepa-
rately in this affair.

de I.cibzeltcrn and Sir Charles I3agot are very
active, and have frequent conferences with Counts
Nesselrode and Capo d'Jstria. The Emperor Alex-
ander is said to be invited by the Emperor Francis
to a congress.
The Count of Rimna has proposed the Court of
Loudon as arbitrator in the thherences between Rus-
sia and the Porte. It seems that the Cabinet has,
tiir the present, abandoned the idea of attacking
Turkey. All the preparations for the Emperor's
journey are made. He will go, it is thought, by
WO' el Wilna to Warsaw, and thence to Vienna and

Coast., APRIL 30.—The following are some de.
tails reTecting the state of affairs in Epirus :
Cl: n:I-sehid I'acha has made two appeals to the
Albanians capable of bearing anns, to march against
the !ALI Kayos anti the execrable Muscovites, the
first movers of the rebellion. The Albanians liar°
replied that they cannot abandon their own cou:i try,
bir Thomas Aluitland, who, notwithstanding his
declarations elneutratity, favours directly and openly
all the o,o:rations of the Turks, has found means to
send di the Greek squadron, under the pretext of
their conduct at Santa \laura, but which is denied
by the Greeks, It is more strange still, however,
that the flag of truce sent by the Greek Navaret to

ment was detained by Sir T. Maitland in violation
of the rights of nations, and was sent back long
afterwards without an answer.
The Greek quadron, howeter, having disappear-
ed, Chourschid Paella renewed his appeal to the
alliances, who now threw off the mask, and demand-
ed payment of arrears, and payment in advance,
The Albanian chiefs, much to their honour, have
.determined- to resist the Gamier for suaiaacreeiag the
Christians in that province sent by the Porte to
Chourschid Pasha, and the Bey of Paramythia has
declared, that if the head of an innocent Christian I
falls, he will join the Souliotes against the Turks.
The Albanians ate, doubtless, not civilised, but
what a difference between their sentiments, and
those of the Chief of the Turkish nation, whom the
English ministry, in an official paper, calls an un-
fortunete Prince, and whom it wishes to conciliate
to the interest of Christian Monarchs.
FRONTIERS or TIJRIIEY, MAY B.—A camp is
forming at Nissa, and a month since the Divan sent
troops thither from Bantle, Albania, Macedonia, and
Scutari. The Turkish army- will assemble there;
in the event of war it will pass the Danube at Wid-
din, and stationing swoops, in the upper part of Wa-
lachia. The army of the Grand Vizier advances in
two divisions, one towards Rudscituk by Sophia, and
the other towards Wallow by Schurnia.
The command of the grand Turkish army to be
assembled on the Danube is deatined for Chourschid
Paella, the favourite of the day, but whose move-
ments are interrupted by the Greeks.
On the frontiers of Bosnia the Turks have had
differences witli the authorities of the country.
All Epirus is in movement, and opposing the
carrying off the treasures of Ali, The death of this
Chief appears to have given birth to discord amongst
the Members of the Divan.

PORT"'"' --

CIRCULAR ADDRESSED TO THE 3UNIATERS OF HIS MOST
FAITHFUL MAJESTY RESIDEST AT FOREIGN COURTS.
M. Avogrado, late Sardinian Charge d'Atrair es at
this Court, having by his Majesty's order received
passports to leave this kingdom, it is proper that you
should be informed of the circumstauces which have
thereupon occurred, in order that you may be able
to correct any misunderstanding which may arise on
this subject. _

As soon as this Government was informed by nor
Ministers resident at Vienna, Naples, and Turin,
that those Governments had declared, that while
they did not hesitate to recognize such Ministers of
his Most Faithful Majesty as had been appointed
before 24th August, 1820, they were determined
not to acknowledge any persons who, in virtue of
subsequent appointments, might arrive with the
view of supplying their places; because they had,
with one common accord, resolved not to acknow-
ledge the Government actually existing in Portugal ;
his Majesty then ordered that the before-mentioned
Ministers should not only withdraw from those
Courts, but that the Portuguese Consuls, resident in
the ports of the respective countries, should suspend
the exercise of their functions until the said Courts
desisted from the extraordinary pretension of consti-
tuting themselves the judges of the internal govern-
ment of this kingdom, since the power of the Consuls
could not fail to be regarded as null by those Courts,
seeing that they were derived from a Power held to ,
be illegitimate. But in order that commerce might
nut sutFer front these political differences, orders
were issued to all the custom-hoasts of the United
Kingdom, not to give trouble to morclumt-vessels,
in cons:quence of their not having papers legally
authenticated by our Consuls, hut to treat them a,
if they came from ports where no Portuguese Con-
suls reside, in which case the authentication of the
local authorities is sufficient.
At the same time his Majesty determined that the
Sardinian Charge d'illaires, resident at this Court,
should not in future be considered as a diplomatic
agent, but that he might remain as long as he
pleased as a private individual.
Some months having elapsed after this resolution
was communicat,d to M. Avogrudo, there arrived
from Hamburgh various packages addressed to him
He requested an order for recei%iiig them duty free,
according to the usual practice with respect to foreign

ministers. There was no hesitation in acceding to
this demand, because the shipments had been made
while he exercised the functions of Charge d' A "'aim,
notwithstanding that he now no lunger held that
character.
In pursuance of the reason here stated, the fol-
lowin,,c, order was despatched
The King orders, by his Minister for Foreign Affairs• that

of Charge dAfairre for Sardinia at this Court.

Office of the Secretary of Slate for Foreign
Araks, April 2-I, 1822."
Three days after, M. Avogrado came to my house,
and having asked a servant for paper and ink, left
for me the following note, accompanied with the
order which had been addressed to bins according to
the official practice :
" Count d'Avogrado regrets that he cannot deliver to Inc
Excellency himself the enclosed paper, which be is under the
necessity of retorniag to the Secretariat of State.
" The total neglect of all decency which appears in Ibis
order does dot permit the Count d'Avogrado to accept or make
use of it."
I no sooner received this singular communication,.
than I hastened to lay it "before his Majesty, by
whose order I, on the following day, addressed ill.
note to M. Avogrado in these terms:—
" The undersigned Minister and Secretary of State for Fo.!
reign Affairs, in reply to ibe indecorous note ofSenhor Awe*
Avegrado, late !Merge d'Affaires of the Government of Sardi-
nia, transmits to him, by order of hn. Majesty, pis‘ports, in
order that he may leave this capital within th, term of 24 hours,
and the kingdom witbio eight dais.
SILVESTRE I'INIIEIRO FERREIRA.
" Office of the Secretary of State for
Foreign Affairs, April 3d."
These facts prove that the Government, while
always ready to pay to other Governments that tri-
bute of respect which is th.:l:- wiil, at the same
time, submit to no insult front them or their agents.
You will make that prudent use of tins informa-
tion which circumstances may require.
May God preserve you, &c.

Extract of a letter from St John's, N. 8., dated
Feb. 23.—" The Neptune Smith (late Kelly), ar-
rived here yesterday from Kingston, Jamaica, in 30
days ; on the 27th January, off Cape Antonio, was
boarded by a Spanish piratical schooner, of about
50 tons, having one long gun amidships, beside
small arms, and manned with k 0 men, who took
possession of the brig, and ran her into shoal water,
where they commenced taking every thing of value
they could lay their hands on ; they found 128 dou-
bloons, which were concealed in the middle stay-
sail, bcloaging to Mr. Edmond, the owner, and
about 201. in small gold, belonging to the captain.
The brig Amyr, of and for Liverpool, which sailed
eight days previous to the Neptune, was in posses-
sion of the same pirates; they had her close in shore
' discharging her cargo of sugar. Captain Smith was
near enough to the ;law to speak her, but could
learn no further part.culars. The Neptune Wai
plundered last voyage about the same place, and it
is believed by the same piratical vessel."
A private letter from an officer of the 35th rent.
dated St. Kitt's, in the West Indies, March 22,
says:—" Major Loftus, of the 9th regiment, died
of the yellow fever, after been taken on shore at
Antigua, on the 10th inst. We sent 27 men out of
into the hospital in two days ; two men died the
same evening as the major. We had no sickness on
board after leaving Antigua, having disembarked
all the soldiers there, and put them under canvas;
left Antigua on the 12th, and heard of no other
deaths. We are all well, and the garrison healthy
at St. Kitt's."
