HAMBURG AND FLANDERS MAIL.

CONSTANTINOPLE, AUG. 25.—The Ottoman illo-
niteur publishes a long report of the Seraskier to
the Sultan, on the causes of the disasters of the
Turkish army in Syria. Ile ascribes them to many
successive errors of Hussein Pacha. He does jus-
tice to the skill of Hussein Pacha in the command
of irregular troops, but adds, that he is ignorant of
tactics, and of the manners and customs of
the inhabitants of that part of Arabia. The
Grand Visier observes, that he himself, who pro-
frsses this knowledge, and has the confidence
of the inhabitants, and has studied the art of war,
had more than once begged the Sultan to give him
hat command, but that the Sultan was not willing,
on account of his age, to expose him to the fatigues
of war. He had, therefore, confined himself to
measures for collecting, providing for, and aug-
menting the troops. The Grand Visier comes with
six regiments to the capital, where he will be joined
by the troops now there. Recruits are arriving
from all quarters, and the Seraskier is actively en-
gaged in organizing them ; and in a short time two
armies, more numerous than the first, will be assem-
bled. " May Heaven (so concludes the Seraskier's
report) crown them with glory, by the destruction
of the rebels and the deliverance of Egypt."
(We know that the command is taken from
Husein Pacha, and given to the Grand Visier.)

" The East India Sketch Book," which is
about to appear, and which is so eagerly expected by the
whole body of retired Nabobs, is, it seems, the work of
a lady. Personal sketches and pictures of society, as
existing in Calcutta, Madras, Bombay, &c., form the
staple of the work, and these are said to be of so divert-
ing and peculiar a nature, as to possess all the zest to
readers in England, which a glance at a new world of
human beings might be supposed to present. This feature
will constitute the distinction between the work in ques-
tion and the popular volumes of Captain SxtrtsiEß ; for
while, in the latter, the external aspect of Oriental nature
furnished a theme for the author's powers of description,
in the former the subject matter will be human society,
especially as existing among the present race of Anglo-
Indians.
