TURKEY.

TOMAN OF TilE 22D AUGUST.
[Read by order of the Sultan, in all the Mosques during
Divine Service, for the information of the people.l
" From the first occurrence of the disputes and differ-
ences that have arisen between the Sublime Porte and
Mehemet Ali, the European Powers have not ceased to
show a sincere desire to bring their differences to a cone
clusicn suitable to the honour and interests of the Porte.
and to the rights of the Sultan, Not only was this
friendly wish a natural result of the amiable tics and an
cient relations so happily existing, but from the extent of
the possessions of the Sublime Porte in Europe, she has
been accounted as one of the European Powers, and that
whatever effects her interests is regarded as concerning
all Europe. Subsequent to the occurrence of the dis-
putes alluded to, and after the reverses experienced, as
known to all the world, the Ambassadors of the Great
Powers resident at Constantinople, in a collective offi-
cial note, declared, that their Governments were unani-
mously agreed upon taking mosures to arrange the said
differences, and the Sublime Porte, with a view of put-
ting a stop to the effusion of Mussulman blood, and to
the various evils which would arise from a renewal of hos-
tilities, accepted the intervention of the great Powers.
His Excellency Shekib Effendi, the Beylikgi, was, there-
fore, despatched as plenipotentiary to represent the Su-
blime Porte at the conferences which took place in Lan-
don fir the purpose in question. The object of the great
Powers, as well as of the Ottoman Government, was to
bring about a satisfactory and suitable arrangement, based
on principles of justice, and conformable in every respect
to the honour and dignity of the Porte and the inte-
rests of the Sultan. Every effort to accomplish this
having been fruitless, Mehemet Ali Pacha has conceived
the vain idea of acquiring all he aspires to.
Totally unmindful that he was nothing, and forgetting
under whose auspices he has risen to the power and
fame he enjoys, be has set his mind on dividing the Otto-
man empire with his Sovereign ; and to conceal his ambi-
tious projects, he has recourse to language calculated to
deceive only the unwary. He always commences by say-
ing that the sole motive of his demanding so much for him-
self and his descendants, is, for the preservation of the
Mussulman faith, notwithstanding that it ;s known to every
one, that the wish of the Sultan is to uphold our holy re-
ligion of which he is the spiritual chief, and that the con-
stant and unceasing efforts of his Highness are directed to
that end. Let no one be deceived by the stratagems of
the Pacha.
" It having been felt that all the zealous labours of the
conferences of London in the settlement of the Pacha's
pretensions were useless, and that the only public way
was to have recourse to coercive measures to reduce him
to obedience in case he persisted in not listening to
pacific overtures, the Powers have, together with the
Ottoman Plenipotentiary, drawn up and signed a treaty,
whereby the Sultan offers the Pacha the hereditary Go-
vernment of Egypt, and of all that part of Syria extending
from the head of the gulf of Suez to the lake of Tiberias,
together with the province of Acre for life; the Pacha on
his part evacuating all the other parts of the Sultan's do-
minions, now occupied by him, and returning the Ottoman
fleet.. A certain space of time has been granted him to
accede to these terms, and as the proposals of the Sultan
and his allies, the Four Powers, do not admit of any change
or qualification, if the Pacha refuse to accede to them, it is
evident that the evil consequences to fall upon him will he
attributable solely to his own fault. His Excellency, Er-
feat, Bey, Musteshar for Foreign Affairs, has been de-
spatched to Alexandria in a Government steamer, to com-
municate their ultimatum to the Pacha.
" Now, were it absolutely neeessary to
give to the
Pacha, his children, and descendants, the extent of terri-
tory (the origin of the dispute) that he wants, the Otto-
man empire would at once he divided into two parts.
The distinction between subject and Sovereign would be
merely nominal, and from a rivalship between two equal
powers various evils would arise. It would not only tail
in giving strength to Islamism, but, on the contrary, would
be a means of shaking and loosening it. To make a mere
governor a partner in the sacred rights of the Sultan, by
giving him such extensive territory, and such vast power,
is so contrary to the principles of government, and the
usage of its subjects, that it could at no period be admis-
sible. If the vs ish:of the Paella be to provide fur his
children and descendants, the slightest reflection will con•
since every one that the hereditary Government of Egypt
would suffice for that purpose.
