MONEY MARKET.

SovEaasaws—Continue in fair demand at former rates,
viz. Rs. 10 16 to 10 18 each.
BILLS ON ENGLAND—Have been in goal demand, and such
as have come to market have been readily bought up. Rates
are about the same as b ?fore, with, however, symptoms ()fin:.
provement, which will probably take effect as :oon as the Go-
vernment have obtained the remittances they require at their
present rate for advances on shipments. But as these remit-
tances are large, amounting it is reported to upwards of two
millions sterling, it may be some time yet before any decided
rise takes place.
GOVERNMENT PAPER.—The market for these investments
is apparently quite paralyzed ; the brokers report the impossi-
bility of effecting sales of the Five per Cent. Notes, which be-
fore bore a premium of 5 to 6 per cent. even at a discount of 1
per cent., and that the Four per Cent. Notes which were at a
discount of 21/2 to 2,i per cent, have fallen nominally to 12 per
cent.

The Government Bank, in consequence of this new loan
having raised the value of money, has altered its rates of dis-
count as under, say—
On Loans and discounts generally
On Government Bills
On Cash accounts
Being an advance of one per cent. on the previous rates
charged by the Bank.

Vided for all this, and the tittktcst orders have been sent to pre-
vent their recurrence: Mr. Wood, our new Consul at Da-
M3.:;•!,;54; shOrtly proceed to his post.
On the iffh hi; Highness the Sultan performed his Namaz
at the Mosque of Artlaoutkuoy, and afterwards went to Beboc,
his usual place of resort, on Friday. A private Council was
assembled at the Porte, and the following appointments were
immediately after announced :
Serezli Youssouf Pacha, Governor of Aidin, named Go.
vt rnor of Rumelia.
Hagi Said Pacha, Minister of Commerce, Governor of
Aidin.
Saib Paella, President of the Council, Kaimmakam
ce of
of
Adrianople, i. e. Deputy-Governor, during the absen
Yacoub
Aris Bey, Mustelhar of the Grand Vizier, President of the
Council.
Said Muhib Efendi, on a mission in Egypt, Musteshar of
the Grand Vizier.
Seyid Efendi, Charge d'Affaires of the Pacha of Trebisonde.
Sarim Efendi, a member of the Council, appointed Minister
of Commerce, with the rank of a functionary of the first class,
but without the title of Pacha.
On the 12th a Coursed Extraordinary was held at the Porte,
attended by none but the highest functionaries. Their delibe-
rations are said to have been relative to certain branches of
tonal administration.

The Porte is said to iidve reeeived, from Nice and the dis-
tricts lately disturbed, intelligence of a satisfactory nature.
Yacoub Pacha, the Governor of Adrianople, had arrived at
Sopha, with two regiments of the line and about 6,000 irregu-
lars. Hufzi Pacha, the Governor of Uskap, had reached with
2,000 men, Hussein Pacha, Governor of Vidin, with 3,000;
and although this congregated force was by no means requi-
site, inasmuch as all opposition on the part of the rebels has
ceased, still its appearance will have a salutary effect.
'fhe Ottoman steamer Peiki Shevket arrived here on the
10th, from Candia, bearing despatches from Tabir Pacha.
Nothing very decisive appears to have taken place there. The
plains were cleared of insurgents as soon as the Turkish
troops under Mustapha Pacha advanced against them. The
Turks have already 7,000 troops there, and the steamer Esseri
Hayir had been sent to fetch Albanians, who being accustomed
to mountain warfare, are just calculated for such service.
We last week, on the faith of certain private letters, stated
that affairs had been quite settled in Persia ; but it would now
appear that the writers of those letters had placed too high an
estimate on the value of Persian promises. It is true that the
Shah had engaged to arrange every thing to the entire satis-
faction of Great Britain, and had even sent an order to the
Governor of Korassan to deliver up Ghorian to the Herattis
according to agreement ; but the Governor was already pre-
pared how to act, and evaded the execution of the measure,
whilst Yar Mohammed sent to Tehran some of his relations, who
gained the ear of the weak perjured Shah, and succeeded in
persuading him that the English were excessively feeble in
Afghanistan, which was ready to rise upon and exterminate
them. The Shah, on the strength of this, refused to give up
Ghorian, and it appears by no means improbable that he may
be induced to accept the protectorate of Herat, which he
had previously rejected, with a view of conciliating the good-
will of England. Dr. Riach has therefore all his work to do
over again, and we understand he is now on his way back to
Tehran.

JUNE 17.
THE CANDIOTE INSURRECTION.

Letters from Syria bring news of the success of the Candians
over the Turkish troops. It is said that three engagements
have taken place, in two of which the loss on either side was
small, but in the third, when Mustapha Pacha commanded the
Sultan's troops, the latter were signally defeated with a loss of
400 men. Tahir Pacha continues to occupy Suda and its for-
tress, closely watched by the insurgents, who are 15,000
strong, but a few villages in the vicinity of the town sub-
mitted. The sum of 2,500 drachmas was subscribed by
Greeks in Syra, a large amount has also been sent from
the Morea to support the Candians, and they have also
many friends here among their co religionists, by whom con-
siderable sums are now making up for them. A Turkish
steamer arrived in the last week from Candia, giving news
of the success with which Tahir Pacha had met. At
the same time, the Pacha, it is said, expressed
his wish for an immediate addition to his force,
as he had been greatly disappointed regarding the
actual strength of the Candians. A council was held
at 'l'ophanah, where the Sultan assisted, and it is
generally believed that the condition of Candia was
its subject. Mehemet Ali Pacha, chief of the Artillery, was
ordered to depart for that island with four vessels of war and
5,000 soldiers. The Candians are greatly enraged against a
certain M. Caporal, who was sent here by Alustapha Pacha, to
represent the condition of the island. lie brought with him a
petition bearing the names of a goodly number of the
islanders, expressive of their submission to the Sultan,
iThich names are now said to have been forged by the said
Capore. The letters alluded to above mention that the
Candians are in good spirits and have great hopes of throwing
off the Turkish yoke. Four fire-ships had left Syra for the
Candian coast, and were hourly expected. Tahir Pacha hav-
ing heard of them, had called all his vessels into the harbour
of Suda. Notwithstanding the unfavourable answers of the
Consuls in Candia, the insurgents were yet in hopes of meriting
the sympathy of foreign Powers in their favour, which, in fact,
is their only true prospect of success.
There is no recent news of importance from Bulgaria. The
Porte is endeavouring to smother up that affair as expeditiously
as practicable. Three millions of piastres have been sent
there, wherewith to purchase and ransom the peasants carried
off ito slavery by the Arnauts. It is said that several females
have been brought to this capital and sold as slaves to the
Turks, notwithstanding the endeavours of the Porte to pre-
vent it.

Since the departure of the Russian steamer with the new
firman for the Pacha of Egypt, his case seems to remain in
statu quo. The new Russian Consul, Mr. Cramer, on his way
to Alexandria, is still here ; the Austrian Consul-General is
also here, and the new English Consul-General is expected, via
Vienna, and all will depart for Alexandria so soon as the Fo-
reign-office gives the order to do so.
On the Bth instant a Turkish brig from Alexandria
arrived here, with some sixty passengers on board, fourteeen
of whom were sick of the plague, and six of whom have since
died. The passengers were all disembarked at the
lazaretto of Coolalee on the Bosphorus, and the
vessel has been sent to the island of Prati, in the Sea
of Marmora, and the chief of the quarantine has taken every
possible precaution to prevent the contagion extending to the
city. The better-informed class of Turks are as much alarmed
by this visit of their old enemy as the Franks, and those among
them who a few years ago regarded quarantine regulations
with contempt, now look to them for preservation from the
plague.
