the Paris papers of Frid ,y last assert, that up to
the `25111 ult. which is the latest account from Coo-
stantinople, no answer had been returned to the joint
requisition of the Foreign Ambassadors. for the im-
mediate evacuation of the Principalities. The im-
mense treasures of Ali Paella were daily arriving at
Constantinople, and are alone sufficient to furnish
the teeans of carrying on the war, while Russia is in
want of the necessary finances to bring a large army
into the field. Among other idle rumours in some
of the Paris journals, it is said, that England, Aus-
tria and Russia meditate the partition of European
Turkey, and that Constantinople is to be tiic seat of
the new Greek Government. In opposition to the
accounts from Zante, of the sth ult. in the Frankfort
papers, stating the Greeks to have been defeated in
the late naval actions with the Turks, a letter was
received from Leghorn on Saturday, dated the 13th,
from unquestionable authority, announcing that the
Turkish fleet had suffered a signal defeat, and re-
turned into Porte, after a loss of Welty-six ships.---
It is also added, that Zante was illuminated on the
occasion, contrary, no doubt, to the wish of the Con-
stituted authorities and the Lord High Commis-
sioner of the lonian Isles. The rumours of the
Turks being victors were circulated, no doubt, by
the agents of the Porte, to prevent any popalar
effervescence among the Janissaries that would en-
danger the peace of the Capital or the safety of the
Government.

FRANKFORT, MARCIi IG.--.Extract Of a letter
front Constantinople, dated the 23d of March
" Nothing new from the North. The Austrian
vessels seized have been confiscated, and conveyed to
the arsenal. The Captains and crews, who were
Greeks, are in prison. These ships came from Odesa
They carried supplies for the Greeks. A vessel with
the Russian flag has also been seized. The Captain,
who is a Greek, says he is protected by Russia. A'
Cap sin, really a Russian, who had brought supplies
for the Insurgents, claimed the protection of the
Austrian Embassy, which could not keep him.
was given up. The Captain of the Port of Tazo
last week boardedteery Christian vessel on its arrival
and forced the officers to undergo examination on
shore. The Active, a French armed vessel, which
was near being boarded by the Captain made sell
and got off. The Ottoman Government have re-
sorted to these measures, because many European
ships under the French flag have got into the
Black sea, with goods intended for the Greeks."
The Pelham, Leeward Islands packet, has brought
letters from St. Thomas's to the 12th of March.—
The intercourse with the Spanish Main was in a
slate of some activity, and goods were taken off
freely by purchasers from the interior, who before
had been much discouraged by the projected expedi-
tion of the Royalists against Coro, ((vices to the
end of February had been received at St. Thomae's
from the city of St. Domingo, which was then, in
appearance, settled, and enjoying tranquillity, under
the Government ef Uoyer. Some sensation was cre-
sted there by information that an expedition against
Samuna, a settlement on the eastern side of the
island of St. Domingo, bud sailed from Ilartinique.
This force was said to be 11 transports, with 2000
troops on board, under convoy of Admiral Jacob.—
The letters from Martinigee announce the failure
of the house of Eyma and Co. a mercantile tistab.i' sh-
them of great eminence on that island.
SELECT VEKTRIEI.---A t Waltoneon-Thanies, an
attempt has been lately made to establish a select
vestry in that parish. The inhabitants, generally,
were decidedly inimical to the measure, and resolved
to frustrate the intentions of those who were advo-
cates fig an abridgment of their parochial privileges.
A meeting having been convened fur the purpose of
11:sousing the subject, the parishioners assembled in
such numbers us convinced those with whom the
question originated of the obvious futility of the at.
temyt ; indeed, so satisfied were they upon this point,
that they immediately anneunced their intentien of
dropping the proceedings.
