TRIESTE, SEPT. 9.

Accounts have been received from Constantinople
to the 4th. In consequence of the late Hatti Hou-
mayoum, recommending economy in the expenses,
the Minister of Justice and four of the superior
clerks of that department have been named intend-
ants of the five sultanas.

The Paris correspondent of the Times (2d edition),
dating yesterday (Friday), 6 p.m., says :
" It is very positively stated hsre, on the strength
of letters from Constantinople, some of which are

understood to have been received in official quar-
ters, that there exists a conspiracy to get rid of the
present Sultan, and to replace him by his brother
Abdul Aziz. Some of these letters assert that,
when the recent stormy scene occurred at the
Porte, when Abdul Mcdjid so vehemently apostro-
phised his Ministers, and accused them of leading
the Empire to ruin by dilapidation of the finances,
the Sultan added, that he knew that a certain
party desired to put his brother to reign over
them in his stead, but that they would not find it
so easy a matter to make away with him, and that
they would do well to bear in mind that he was a
descendant of Soliman and of Mahomet 11., and
the son of Mahmoud. It is further stated that the
conspiracy had gone so far that the majority of the
foreign Ambassadors at Constantinople had thought
proper to inform certain leading persons in the plot
that, if Abdul Aziz came to the throne by violent
means, he would not be recognised by the European
Powers. All this is news of rather a startling charae
ter. With Turkey in the European concert, and
brought so near to us by steam and frequent inter-
course, one fancies that the days of sack and bow-
string must be gone by, never to return. If the facts
be as above stated, we must soon have confirmation
of them. Meanwhile, the source from which they
reach me is sufficiently trustworthy to warrant
their communication to you. From the same
quarter I learn that Turkey and Persia have been
on the brink of a complete rupture, and that it was
to prevent this, and to re-knit the almost severed
thread of diplomatic negotiations, that Ferukh
Khan remained at Constantinople."

FRANCE.

PARIS, FRIDAY.

The Moniteur says:—" It results from informa-

tion which has reached the Government that the
produce of the taxes and indirect revenues for the
month of August exceeds by more than five mil-
lions that of the corresponding period of 1857, and
that the real surplus is nearly six millions, if the
double decime on the registration dues, which has

seen suppressed since the commencement of the
present year, be taken into account."

Count Walewski, who, as we stated, had pro-
ceeded:from Vichy to Biarritz, will prolong his
residence there until the end of September.
Lord Stratford de Redcliffe, a letter from Mare
seilles states, has left that port for Constantinople.
The Brussels journals seem of late to have taken
to them,§elyee the ppeciglity of publjohing mown,

accounts of disasters to consular agents in the East.
A Paris correspondent of the Independance of Brus-
sels says :—" I have just receii-ed a piece of intelli-
gence which proves that the statement previously
given of the massacre of Christian consuls is not a
fable, as has been asserted. M. Delmas, consular agent
of France (the locality I do not yet know) and his
wife arc said to have been massacred by the Mus-
sulman police, and a young girl violated. lam
promised more ample details to-morrow."
The Constitutionnel, in giving the above, adds :
"We believe this statement to be completely un-
founded. There exists no French consular agent
of the name of Delmas, and we think we may
positively state that no fact of the kind has been
hitraerto officially communicated to the French
Government."

AUSTRIA.
VIENNA, Sept. 7.—lt is at length definitively
settled that a submarine telegraph sh all be con-
structed from Ragusa to Alexandria. The exact
conditions of the agreement entered into by the
British and Austrian Governments are not yet
known, but its principal features are said to be the
following :—The Austrian Government agrees to
lay down three cables between Ragusa, Corfu,
Zante, Candia, and Alexandria, and to cede
them when complete to a private (Anglo-Aus-
trian) company. The British and Austrian Go-
vernments guarantee to the company 6 per cent.
(3 per cent. each) on all capital that may be ex-
pended in the construction of the above-men-
tioned submarine telegraph. It would appear that
the British Government has the best of the bargain,
for its despatches, which are to be forwarded by its
own agents, are to have right of priority on all
three cables. It is also stated that right of priority
on the Austrian land telegraphs is likely to be
granted to the British Government for all the de-
spatches it may forward to or receive from India.
Persons who are much better able to form a correct
opinion on such a matter than myself say that the two
Governments risk little or nothing by guaranteeing
6 per cent. The line in question, which is to all intents
and purposes amain one, already has or will soon have
three great ramifications :-1. The line from Corfu
to Malta, Cagliari, and Spezia. 2. That from Zante
to the Morea, which will join the Greek telegraphic
net. 3. That from the island of Candia to Con-
stantinople, which Mr. Gisborne is about to con-
struct. The Turkish Givernment has also authorised
Mr. Gisborne to lay down a cable from Candia to
Alexandria, but it will hardly be worth his while
to do so, as the Austrians are on the point of sink-
ing three. A few days since the English war
steamer Medina was seen taking soundings in the
Archipelago, and particularly in the neighbourhood
of the island of Scio, which is to be one of the sta-
tions in the Constantinople-Candia line of tele-
graph. From Scio a telegraphic communication
will be opened with Smyrna and. Gallipoli.
