IMPERIAL FIRMAN.

CONSTANTINOPLE, DEC. I.—The conduct of the Vizier
Selim Pacha, late Governor of Damascus, having excited
suspicion and alarm in the inhabitants of that city, dis-
turbances broke out there. Now as these disorders, al-
ways injurious to the welfare of our subjects, are espe-
cially prejudicial in that country, where it is essential to
provide for the security of the Alahometan pilgrims, we
have appointed Ali Pacha, of Ca ramania, to take the place
of the said Pacha. But as he could not remain there so easily
as was requisite, and we yet desired that order should be
restored without delay, and that every thing should be
prepared for the pilgrims, we despatched Hiramet, one of
our Kapidgi Baschis, thither, as Deputy-Governor, with
orders to proceed to his destination as speedily as possible.

Before the news of these resolutions could reach Da-
mascus, some assassins carried their audacity so far as to
put Selim Pacha to death. After these events a report
reached us, that in consequence of some differences that had
arisen between Ali Pacha of Egypt and Abdallah Pacha,
Governor of St. Jean d'Acre, the former, without having
received any instructions from us, has presumed to send
troops on the road from El Atisch, and ships against St.
Jean d'Acre.

As tranquillity and public order are objects of our most
anxious care, all our subjects must conform to our supreme
will. The two Pachas have disregarded this principle,
and have persevered in a contest which threatens the
effusion of Mahomedan blood, and exposes the subjects
confided to us by Providence to great misfortunes. Though
this conduct was contrary to the holy laws and to our
Imperial will, since these two Paellas are invested with
the confidence of our Government, we have resolved, in
order to spare them an unhappy end in this world, as well
as in the next, and to prevent the consequences, to in-
vestigate the reciprocal complaints of the two Paellas, and
ordered them to lay the causes of them at the foot of our
throne, to be decided as circumstances shall require.
For this purpose we have appointed Commissioners from
the Ministers of the Empire and sent them to each of the
two Pachas, with instructions to give them the letters,whieh
direct them what they have to do after they receive them.
They will give to Mehemid Ali Pacha strict injunc-
tions immediately to withdraw his troops and make them
return to Alexandria, and to give Abdallah Pacha direc-
tions not to meddle in future with things which concern
only the Government at Alexandria.
We have likewise sent one of our Ministers, invested
with full powers, to Damascus, as some wicked persons of
the lowest class of people have there been guilty of the
crime of murdering a vizier, and it was necessary to send
troops against them, and to subject the guilty to exemplary
punishment. We have, however, ordered, that all mea-
sures shall he taken not to confound the innocent with
them, but that they shall be spared as they deserve. Far-
ther care is to be taken to protect the pilgrims against every
kind of injury, and to make them respected by the inhabi-
tants. In a word, the authors of the crimes will be pu-
nished, and the Pachas will restore order, which the
doers have disturbed. When the latter submit to mani-
fest their repentance by engaging to provide for the com-
plete subsistence and security of the pilgrims, the voice of
clemency may then be heard. But they must immediately
return to complete ob,dience.

In our character of head and protector of t he Mussul-
man religion, and according to a verse of the Coran.
every one is bound fully and implicitly to obey our com-
mands. The submission of the two Pachas must be the
more prompt, as they both enjoy our especial favour, and

fill the most honourable posts in our empire. We also
expect from the inhabitants of Damascus that, in grateful
acknowledgment of the care which their Sovereign dis-
plays to spare their city and property, they will, on the
arrival of our envoys, conduct themselves in a manner
conformable to our will, and to the commands given
them. But if, on the contrary, misled by perfidious in-
sinuations they should persevere in their error, and not
renounce their purpose of causing the blood of Mussulmen
to be shed, we shall resolve to employ measures
to inflict on them a terrible and exemplary punish.
ment. All you intendants, judges, Lc. who now
know our supreme will with respect to what passes in the
cities of Damascus and Alexandria, we send you the

CORN EXCHANGE.

The supply of Grain this morning is moderate, with the ex-
ception of Oats from Ireland. Up to the present hour the busi-
ness transacting has not been to any extent, and the price gene-
rally support last Monday's market. Barley and Wheat may,
from the smallness of the arrivals, be quoted at a trifling
advance. Some of the finest parcels having fetched Is, more
than on last market day. The stock of both these articles has
very much diminished, and the appearance of the Market is
rather in favour of an advance upon the whole. Oats are firm,
notwithstanding the Irish arrivals. In other articles of Grain
there is nothing of notice.
