" CZERNOWICZ, IN THE BUKOWINA, MAY 25.
The storm of war is approaching. The desolation-
threatening Crescent already sheds its bloody
tight over the plains of Moldavia. The Turkish
vanguard, of about 1000 cavalry, had reached,
o,n the 19th, Burlat, only 6 leagues from Jassy,
and in all probability the main body has already
entered that capital. All the roads leading from
that unhappy country to this place are covered
ith fugitives ; lust of pillage and fanaticism
excite the Asiatic hordes to the greatest cruel-
ties, and nothing escapes their unsparing scimi-
tar's. We know nothing of Ypsilanti ; most
accounts say he has crossed the Danube, and
/lets offensively. The advance of the. Turks has
iniercepted all communication with Wallachia.
At Galacz 600 Greeks fought with 9,000 Turks,
of "diem 3,000 were cavalry, for nearly a whole
day. The number of combatants on both sides
'was reduced to the half ; at length the su-
Perior numbers of the Turks prevailed. The
remaining Greeks, 300 in number, were-obliged
10 retreat; every one was wounded. When there
'vas nothing more to be feared from this valiant
little band, the Turks massacred, without pity,
Ttn the Christians, women, and children in the
City.

IdAmaunGH, JUNE 14.—Accounts from Stock
l+olm state, that the Norwegian Diet had on
the 29th recognised, by a majority of 31, the
Treaty concluded with Denmark on the Ist Sep-
tember, 1819, for the payment of the Norwegian
debt. An address to the King is annexed, re-
questing him to use his interest with the Courts
concerned, to get the time extended from 10 to
30 years. At all events the treaty is acceded to,
and the last step only an appeal to the generosity
or the Courts."—(llamburg Papers, June 15.)

On the 26th of May a detachment, commanded, by an
fncer in Garrison at Tordules, was attacked by MERINO with
46° tnen, half Cavalry, and the remainder Infantry. After a
porous combat of two hours, the Curate retired on Cebreros.

Where he united his detachments of the Regiment of Juen, and
Itl4l.clied on Izaw to join with the troops under Col. CHEMIN,

4 letter from MErtmo to the Commandant of the fort, who was

letter

upon. the mentioning of the Grant to the

for whoever looked up to any one of the bright
