lay's bulletin (in the Austrian Observer) was
ifa-
:ourable. I am happy to add that a further m-
irovement has taken place to-day so that a re-
apse is not to be apprehended. This news
is a subject of general joy here. During the whole of
he Prince's illness his palace in the city, and the villa in
chichi he resides, have been, as it were, besieged with
(nxious inquiries. Tile Emperor himself has continually
nade the most particular inquiries of the course of the
lisorder, and all the members of the Imperial family
iave given the came flattering proof's of the interest
in
hey take his health. Baron Von Wangenheim,
High Marshal at the Court of Hanover,
irrived here a few days ago. It is supposed he is come
on a special mission relative to the affairs of Hanover.
TRIESTE, AUG, 18 —The Eichhoff steam-boat ha.
irrived. It has on board Mr. Prokesch von Osten.,
Austrian Ambassador at the Court of Gret ca, who is
:aid to have left Athens on account of ill health
It is believed, however, that his extensive know-
ledge of the East will be made use of now that
.he European Cabinets seem to be almost exclusively
ngaged with the relations b .tweea the Porte and Me-
autnet Ala M. Prokesch is said to remember vv)ili
much pleasure his residence in Egypt, and his acquaint.
ance with Mehemet Ali. The accounts from the Ar•
chipelago and Asia Minor afford little news of import-
ince, only that the French and English fleets are at
anchor off the Dardanelles, and that the English ships
of the line were on the way to Tencdos to reinforce
Admiral Stopford's squadron, which consists of no
['ewer than ten ships of the line. The head-quarters of
the Turkish army were still in Malatia, and those of
the Egyptian army at Marasch, where Ibrahim Pacha
now is.

TRIESTE, AuG. 20.—Accounts from Alexandria of
the Gth say that Mehemet Ali has accepted the me-
diation of the Five Powers. He is said to have ex-
pressed a wish to have the hereditary Sovereignty in
Egypt and Syria, and that Chosrew Paeha, with whom
ac cannot agree, should be removed from public affairs.
However, he has accepted the mediation, and it will
ippear, in the course of the negociation, what conces-
sions it is proposed to make to him.
FRANKFORT, AUG. N.—The Marquis and Mar-
chioness of Lansdowne have arrived in this city.
BERLIN, AUG. 21.—Two more officers arrived yes-
terday from Cqnstantinople. Those who were to go to
• hat city, and have been prevented by the death of the
Sultan, have received, according to their rank, an in-
iemnification of 800, 600 and 400 dollars.—Journal de
Frankfirt, Aug. 28.
ST. PETERSBURG, AUG. 29.—The foreign commerce
at Russia, in 1838, offers some circumstances of which
here has not been an example for a long time— an ex-
traordinary demand for our productions, notwithstand-
ing their high price, and consequently a considerable
rise in the course of exchange. The deficiency of the
harvest in England and other countries in 1838 has
caused an increased exportation of corn from our ports.
The following statements show how much the balance
of our foreign commerce was in favour of Russia in
1838 :
EXPORTATIoNS FROM RUSSIA.

Value of Goods
Rubles.
To Foreign Countries 390 086.256
To Finland
To the Kingdom of Poland 9,593,577

Rubles 313,525.687
Being 49,040.527 rubles more than in 1837.
lIIFORTS.

From Foreign Countries , 243 928,385
From Finland
From Poland... 2,570,142

Rubles 247,715.492
Being 4,041,685 rubles less than in 1837.

Excess of Exports
So considerable a balance in favour of Russia led to
an increased importation of the precious metals. The
value of gold and silver imported from Foreign Coun•
tries and the Kingdom of Poland into Russia in
1838 was--
Rubles
Exputed 10,146,677

Excess of precious metals imported 20,005 277
Besides this krge quantities of gold and silver have
been imported in 1839, which must be considered as
.1 consequence of the commercial operations of 1838.
