is enough that it be founded on reciprocity, which we
bold to be inadmissable, unless our rulers have conspired
the ruin of France.
1 BUCHAREST, SEPT. ( Private Correiprelenee.).---
The Suit= wishing to remove all objection With those de-
ikons of beeoling convert* to Islareitoe has dispenerd
with the necessity of abstaiiiing from wine, and with itnothe,
obligation which is, cwisidered rather a roil tier of diseiplinf
than of docirine. Two thouitand publie.firsee hese been
opened, which may be held indiscriminstel t pesiong of*„?
.uttions. On the wines and all other spirit t t liquors a t
is imposed, which will yield a revenue equal 10 more than
millions of francs. Notwithstanding these useful meastir‘ii,'
the old Mahometan population is in a Ntate•of dreadfC
exasperation. The Illernas and Soplitas, who compose
in eighth of the sedentary part of the popidatioa of Con..
stantmople, are very tartmlent, but they are soon, cost into
boats, and transported to Asia. This has- hem the cause
of some of the conflagretions which have tal:ertplaee within
these three days, anti it is probable, when the lopg nights
come, the Turks will try to worm themselves by settinir
lire to the capital. There is some talk of attacking the
corps of Bostangis; we will soon learn. They are provi-
eionmg the fortresses on the Danube, as if war was ex-
pected from one moment to another. The Moldavians and
Wallachians are expecting the Russians, but. it is probable
the Persian war will retard the occupation of the provinces
beyond the Danube, for the Emperor' Nicholas, with his
800,000 men wants money, and will not, perhaps, for
that reason, be able to send more than 60,000 to reinforce
General Yermaloff. It is now we feel the charm of the
military colonies of the Emperor Alexander, and the mis-
fortune of being drawn into the political deceptions of
Austria. Russia chiefly depends upon the Cossacks; but
as they must be fed while they are marching, to meet the
Persians, and will be subject to all the maladies produced
by change of climate, it is impossible to foresee how this
war, which so unexpectedly commenced, will end.

TO THE GOVERNORS OF THE LONDON OPHTHALMIC
INFIRMARY, MOORFIELDS.
HAVING been informed that a misconeeptiOn has
arisen in the minds of sonic GOVERNORS of the
OPHTHALMIC INFIRMARY, in consequence of the Adver-
tisement in the Newspapers of Testimonials, bearing our signatures
in favour of Mr. JOHN SCOTT, one of the Candidates for the
office of Surgeon to the above Institution, we think it right to
state, that such Testimonials were given at a former period, and
for a different object, and that Mr. MACKMURDO has our un-
divided interest on the present occasion.
