sailed on the 30th ult. for Naples. By accounts from Tripeb"e
gull Grand Nov. 16, it appears that at that period the troops of t,ll
Grand Seignor, who form the garrison of the place, were
ilt
confined to the town ; several sorties had been made with°
success, and the new Pasha cannot extend his authority beY01;„
the walls. To maintain his power thus far cannot be diffietl7
with 5,000 armed Turks under his command. It seems that
the Ottoman Porte is very desirous of subjugating the whel..
e
country. A squadron of five ships, which left Tripoli on Oct.
20th, with 400 foot soldiers, took possession of the town of Ben-
gasi, which refused to acknowledge the authority of Turkey'
e
No resistance was offered, and the 400 men were left ill
town. The Governor of Bengasi, brother of the ancient Pasu
of Tripoli, had taken refuge at Malta. Sidi Ali, the ancient
Pasha, has not quitted the town. The new Pasha is in ae
embarrassed position from the refusal of the country to pay b
„ow_
taxes. By an Ordinance of the King of the French,
is to take effect from the Ist of May, 1836, French probe°,
and manufactures are exempted from all duties of entry al;
Algiers, whilst foreign merchandize is to pay a duty of 151),
cent. By the same ordinance, French vessels only are tors;
allowed to trade between France and the ports. of Alg
all foreign vessels are required to pay a tonnage duty of t°
francs per ton, with or without cargoes. Sunday and Month%

The thermometer ranged between 42 and 44 ; and the air W.
