GERMAN PAPERS.

Fassucront, Atm. 4.—A letter from a merchant at Pern,
dated 3d allot month, gives some particulars of the negotiations
st Constantinople......" The repeated endeavours," it says, "of
Lord Strangford, and of Mr. Ottenfels,. the Austrian
to,arrange m an amicable manner the differences that have so
long subsisted between Russia and the Porte, have been very
much impeded by the sequestration of four vessels under the
Russian flag_jOur readers , have already been informed of
this, and of the release of the vessels.l—There have been nu.
merous conferences on the subject between the Dragomann of
the Porte and Mr. Chopper, the Secretary to the English Lege.
(4hn • the latter, according to his instructions, has always
intisied that the sequestration should be taken off with.
out any condition; while the Dragomann has persisted, in
asserting that both the ships and cargoes are Greek property,
and therefore the Russian Cabinet had no right to complain of
itlesteph takeu with regard to them, especially as the Emperor
Alexander has repeatedly affirmed that he would net protect
the Greek insurgents. It wits.under these circumstances that
the two Ministers declared to the Divan, that if the Porte had
been disposed to proceed in this business according to the law
of nations, it should first of all require an explanation from
Russia, through the medium of Baron Ottenfels, who acts as
Russian Charge d'Affaires, since there has been no Russian
Diplomatic Agent at Constantinople. This deelaretion, made
in very energetic terms, has some ant on the Divan, and
it is owing to this that orders have been given to release the
ships."
