serve order in the streets. There was some disturbance the
evening before yesterday near the principal guard-house,
and the Royal Palace. The military demonstration had
attracted a crowd of curious spectators, especially females.
Some persons behind them threw stones at the soldiers.
The exhortations of the officers were disregarded, and the
cavalry were ordered to charge the tumultuous assem-
blage. It is said that several persons were wounded, but
nobody was arrested. A domestic servant had his arm
cut off, and several women were rode over. The Magis-
trates, as we hear, addressed yesterday a petition to the King
in which they assure his Majesty that the persons who
signed the representations to the Diet never meant to lose
sight of the respect due to the King, or to offend the
personal honour of any body; that on the contrary, they
had only sought to defend the political rights of the city,
and did not know any other means of defending them, as
the King had banished the Magistrates from his august
presence. They hope that this declaration will cause the
threatened proceedings to be desisted from, and the rein.
statement of Rumann.—llamburgh, July 22.

.be Journal de Sinyrne of the 9th, with private
letters from Constantinople of the Bth inst., were re-
ceived this morning. They confirm the news previously
received, of the utter destruction of the Turkish army
in Syria. This sad intelligence reached the Porte on
the Bth, with the additional information that HAPrz
bad fled to Marasch —a distance so great as to remove
all•- doubts of the extent of his misfortune.• When
these letters were written the inhabitants of
Constantinople were not apprised of the defeat of the
army, and it was feared that great disorders would fol-
low the promulgation of intelligence so disastrous, more
especially at a tinge when the ignorant Mussulmans re-
gard every occurrence as an omen prognosticative of the
fate of the empire during the new reign.
But this is not the only occurrence which has hap-
pened to cast gloom over the present aspect of Turkish
affairs. On the sth inst. the Turkish fleet left the Dar-
danelles contrary to the express command of the Grand
Vizier KHOSREW Pacha, and was seen on the 9th off
Nicaria, steering to the southward, followed by an
English ship of the line and French brig of war. Some
attribute this to treachery, but others affirm that the
Capitan Pacha, ACHMED, carried off the fleet to escape
the sublime favour of the bow-string. When Admiral
LALANDE demanded whether he meant to attack the
Egyptians, the Capitan Pacha answered in the nega-
tive, and in proof of his sincerity invited the French Ad-
miral to accompany him. Admiral LALANDE dispatched
the French war steamer Papin to Constantinople with
the news of this occurrence to the French Ambassador,
who lost not a moment in communicating it to the Divan.
A Grand Council was instantly summoned, and at
eleven o'clock at night, the Pepin having on board a
Turk of distinction, sailed to Ourlac, where the Turk
landed, and after an interview of some hours with Ad-
miral LALANDE, he again re-embarked on a secret mis-
sion. Admiral LALANDE had returned to Ourlac on
the 7th, accompanied by the brigs Comete and Argus,
and corvette Brilliante.

Such is the bubstance of the latest intelligence from
Constantinople, and it must be admitted that it is of no
ordinary occurrence. The time has arrived for some-
thing more than deliberation on the part of England
and France. Meanwhile Russia is not idle, if we may
credit the following summary of a letter from Odessa of
the 6th inst., which appears in the Commerce of Thurs-
day :

The account of the defeat of the Turkish army by
Ibrahim Pacha has been received here from Constantino-
ple by the Polar Star steamer, and produced a great sen-
sation. The details of the battle were not known publicly
when the steamer left, but it was not believed that the fu-
gitives would succeed in forming a junction with the army
of the Packs of %nisch. It was reported in Constantino-
ple that HA: Pacha had been urged by English agents to
make the attack, whilst Ibrahim was induced by the agents
of France to accept it. This report, however, was said to
have been set afloat by persons attached to the Russian em-
bassy at Constantinople. M. de Boutesief had since the
arrival of the news had several conferences with Khosrew
Pacha and Halil Pacha, and had even been several times
with the Sultan. Immediately after the arrival of the
Polar Star, Count Narischkine set out for St. Petersburg
with thedispatches frofn Constantinople, and Admiral Laza-
ref, Commander-in-Chief of the Fleet in the Black Sea,
after a conference with Lieutenant-General Count Fedo-
roff,-First Military Governor of Little Russia and Bessa-
rabia, gave orders for everything to be held in readiness
for the embarkation of the troops which were at Odessa.
Similar orders had also beets sent to the troops at
Kilia and Sebastopol. It was stated that the embarks-
Lion of the materiel of the troops at Odessa was to take
place at once, so that the troops themselves might be
able to embark immediately after the receipt of the new
orders from St. Petersburg, which Lieutenant-General
Federof has sent for; as those which he had received rela-
tive to the event of hostilities breaking out between Tur
key and Egypt were annulled by the death of the Sultan.
The effective of the troops intended for embarkation at
Odessa is 35,000 men, and a large force of artillery. The
General et Cavalry, Baron de Roth, had been ordered to
Odessa, and it was understood that he would take the
command of the force destined to cover Constantinople,
which might be landed on the coast of Asia in less than
ten days."
The following account of the defeat of the Turkish
army was received this morning direct from Alexandria.
We give it without comment, as the latest news from
Egypt :

The German papers received last night, bring the
rollowing paragraph which includes the latest news from
:he Austrian capital :

VIENNA, JULY 15.-After the receipt of the news of the death
of the Sultan, Thrift! Bey, the Turkish Ambassador had a three
hours' conference with Prince Metternich. The inhabitants of
Vienna have not forgotten that in the time of Napoleon, and in
the greatest distress of Austria, Sultan Mahmoud could never be
persuaded to make a diversion in favour of France. There was a
time when he might have thrown a great weight into the balance of
Europe. The Emperor Francis never forgot this, and it is remem-
bered that on the news of the battle of N.tvarino he said--." This
is a disgrace to diplomacy." It is affirmed that on his death-bed,
he enjoined his family relatives to bear in mind the friendly con-
duct of the Porte. It is therefore natural that great regret is felt
here at the early death of the Sultan, who always showed himself a
friend to the Christians.

ALEXANDRIA, JULY 6, 1839.
A few days ago we heard of the total defeat of the
Sultan's army. Yesterday, a letter from Aleppo arrived
here, dated the 26th June, of which the following is a
translation:—
•I The army of Hafiz Riche has ceased to exist. Yes-
terday. after a cannonade of three hours, the Turks threw
down their arms, and abandoned their artillery and ammu-
nition, flying in every direction; not one of them could
have reached the Euphrates had Ibrahim Pacha wished
seriously to prevent it.
"The city of Aleppo has petitioned Ibrahim Pacha to
make arrangements for obliging the disarmed soldiery to
recross the Euphrates, in order not to disturb the security
we enjoy here. The population of this town is proceeding
en muse on the road to Messir, to meet several prisoners
of rank, who aie expected to arrive.
" On the field of battle were taken several English
amatures, who had been brought thither by curiosity, and
who have expressed no small astonishment at the luckless
result of the campaign. The poor Sultan will probably
have to make fresh sacrifices, in order to appease his
powerful vassal.

" The few troops left have set out in the direction of the
camp, which is precisely on the same ground occupied yes-
terday by Hafiz Pacha and his army. To-morrow or next
day the Egyptian advanced guard, commanded by Osman
Pacha, will commence passing the Euphrates. Every thing
indicates that such is the intention of the Egyptian
Sersiskier."

AYLESBURY ELECTION.—Matters remain in
statu quo as stated in our last, and the return of Captain
Baitile Hamilton, for the borough and hundreds of Ayles-
bury, is secured by the perverse obstinacy of Lord Nugent.
His Lordship, in preventing the emancipation of this
borough, and occasioning the election (?) of Baroness
Wenman's man, has so embittered the feelings of his for-
mer friends, that the Liberals of this town will henceforth
regard him with the same feelings of angry resentment
and political dislike, as they de:play towards his nephew
and late representative, Lord Chandos. The day of no-
mination is Tuesday next, when we ardently hope that a
third condidate will be started, and Lord Nugent compelled
to stand the test of a poll.—.Aylesbury New;,
THE NEWCASTLE MURDER.—_The trial of
Bolam will take place next week : all excitement on the
subject is nearly over.
THE MUSICAL FESTIVAL.—The work of pre-
paration is proceeding rapidly ; the carpenter's saw and
hammer are now busily engaged in the erection of galleries
in that splendid room, St. Andrew's Hall. The choral
band assemble in great force, and are most assiduous in
their practice. This prominent feature in the Norwich
Festivals wilL.be rendered still further attractive, at the
ensuing celebration, by the presence of that eminent corn.
poser Spohr, who will conduct his own oratorio of Cal-
vary. The short period during which this great master
can absent himself from Germany will render it impossible
ter him to accept any other engagement in this country.
The list of vocalists has already been published, and in-
cludes the names of Persiani, Stockhausen, Birch, Hawes,
and Placci, Tamburini, Haifa, Phillips, Hobbs, Young, and
Francis. The entire band will consist of upwards of 400
performers.—Norwich Gazette.
We hear that the Duke of Beaufort, who was to
have been king of the tots- ament at the approaching tour.
nay, at Eglintoun Castle, will be unable to attend that
meeting, from havi.ig been ordered by his medical atten-
dants to visit the German baths this atrumn.

This solves the question as to peace or war between the
Sultan and Mehemet Ali. The aggression was clearly
on the part of the Sultan, and made in direct opposition to
the wishes of the Great European Powers, communicated
through their re,pective Ambassadors at Constantinople.
Mehemet Ali has all along acted with the greatest for-
bearance, and done all in his power to prevent a collision,
refraining from all offensive operations till the repeated
aggressions of the Turkish army precluded the possibility
of his remaining longer passive.
The Sultan, if still living (for we have heard that he is
dangerously ill, and past hope,) will pay dearly for his
folly, for no doubt the Pacha will take advantage of his
position.
It.remains to be seen whether the Russians will inter.
fere, and whether they will act on their boasted treaty of
Unkiar Skelessi. I think not. Since their machinations
in Persia have b en discovered, they are too closely watched
by England and France, otherwise I have no doubt they
would have taken pos.ession of Constantinople and risked
the consequences. The Pacha said yesterday that he was cer.
lain no more than three days would elapse after his victory was
known to Rnisia before they would march on Constantin.
(pie, If so, we shall have war most assuredly. Our fleet
is expected here doily, and proceeds to the Archipelago to
watch events.

r The triends of the English amateurs before mentioned
need not be under any apprehensions about them, as
Ibrahim Pacha will give tbem instant liberty.
This day (July 6) the Pacha's steamers the Generoso
and the Egyptian arrived, but we regret to say that they
do not bring Ibrahim Pacha's despatches. We suppose he
thinks his laconic telegrailic despatch to his father, via
Damietta, to be sufficient. It ran thus :--••• The Turks
are diiperseci ; they have left behind them every thing,
besides 6,000 prisoners." By these vessels we learn that
4 000 of the said prisoners have applied to enter the Pacha's
service. They have been accepted, and transports have
been ordered to Seanderoon to bring them here. They
will probably be sent to the fladjas and Yemen, to assist
in bringing the whole of Arabia under the Egyptian
Government.

The Admiral, Sir Robert Stopford, with the English
fleet, is expected off the port in two or three' days, but we
do not know the object of his mission. The Pasha has
told Mr. Waghorn that he will have to go to the Admiral,
when off the port, with a message.

The Journal de Smyrne of the 9JI instant has the
following official announcement respecting the final sa-
tisfaction of the commercial treaty between Great Bri-
tain and Turkey. It approaches to a guarantee that
the commercial relations wilt the Porte win not be in-
juriously affected by the death of Alattmoup :
" The English commissioners for naming the ports at
which merchandise is to be embarked have completed their
task, by declaring generally that this may be effected at
all the ports in the Ottoman empire, without conferring
the exportation of any particular article to any distinct
port, so that all may be considered as open for all kinds of
goods. The firman confirming the full and entire execu-
tion of the commercial treaty with England arrived at
Smyrna on the Bth."

There is no additiocal intelligence from the East in
the French Journals of Thursday. The Mcniteur con-
tents itself with denouncing the Gazette de France's ac-
count of the battle of Istejib a fabrication. From Spain
the latest important news is comprised in the following
telegraphic despatch receised by the French Govern-
ment :

' The General Commanding the 21st Military Division to

the Minis-ter of War.

" PERPIGNAN, JULY 24.—General O'Donnell, on the
ith, with 4000 men, attacked eleven battalions of Carlists
entrenched round Lucena, carried their positions, and
relieved General Azaar, who u as shut up in the town
without any provisions.
As the Carlists blockading Lucena were commanded
by CABRERA in person, General O'DoNNELL's victory,
with a force one•third inferior to that of the enemy, is
a proof of equ rind courage. CABRERA corn.

manded 21,000 men, which is exactly one-third more
than the force of the Christino General.
The latest accounts from Madrid are of the 16th,
but they bring no news of any moment. The city was
tranquil.

'!'here is no domestic news in the Paris Journals of
Thursday. _

The Journal du Havre publishes an extract from the
report of Captain Seumier, commanding the Eole, from
Batavia, respectinp the obliging conduct of the Captain of
the ship belonging to the English East India Company:—
On my arrival at St. Helena, the French Consul
wrote to me and to the Captains of the French ships in the
roads, a letter, communicating an extract from an English
Journal, of 16th February, containing the official news
that Mexico was fitting out privateers against French ships,
and advised us to be on our guard.
We (the Captains) immediately met to agree on what
should be done on this occasion, and we resolved to apply
to Captain Price, commanding the Neptune,
burden, which had all the appearance of a frigate, and to
request him to sail in company with us till we had passed
the Cape Verd Islands. of 1,500 tons
Captain Price most obligingly acceded to our request,
and our convoy consisting of the five following a hips :
Wed on 16th May, the Triton, Captain Beck, from Ba-
tavia; the Gironde, Captain Pasilly, from Calcutta ; the
Luming, Captain Stelton, from Sumatra ; the Eugene,
Captain Pouiv,reau, from Pondicherry ; and the Eule,
Captain Seumier, from Batavia.
Captain Price's conduct in executing the task which he
had resolutely undertaken, is above all praise; he-was
obliged to shorten sail, by which he lost much time. and
was so obliging as to deviate from his course, and put out
his boats to speak to ships that were met with, in order
to obtain information from France respecting the war with
Mexico.

On the 7th of June, we fell in with a Danish ship, in
30 2 N. lat., and 24 3 E. lon. from which we received
such information, as dispelled all our apprehension, and
Captain Price observing that his presence was no longer
necessary, left us to proceed alone on our voyage.
Captain Price, by his admirable conduct has acquired
our unlimited gratitude, and that of our owners, and we
hope that the French Government will acknowledge the
service rendered by him to five French ships with rich car-
goes.— Le Commerce.
