THE RUSSIANS AT CIIOUMLA

At a late hour this afternoon we. received the
Prussian State Gazette of the 9th inst., con-
taining accounts from the Russian Grand Army
up to the 21st July inclusive, on which day the
Russians occupied, after having driven the Turks
before them, the heights new Choumla. It ap-
pears that on the 16th the EMPEROR'S head-
quarters were at Uschanli, from which they
moved on the 17th to Jasitepe, and subsequently
moved on towards Choumla. The Turks, to the
amount of 8 or 10,000 men, cavalry and artillery,
defended the strong posts on the high grounds
before Choumla with great obstinacy, but they
were compelled to fall hack on the fortifications.
The division sent to invest Varna has had a
sharp encounter with the enemy, who made a
sortie from the fort,
te en-
terprise
but they retired with loss to
Varna. From all the
se operations, it now ap-
pears pretty plain that the EMPEROR is resolved
npen attacking Choumla, and forcing his way
across Mount 1f he licceed' the glory
will be proportionate to the difficulty of h
; and if he fail, he only fails where all
others have failed before him. But we are in.
dined to believe, notwitktanding the acknow-
ledged strength of the place, that the relative
superiority of the present Russian army is so
great, both in effective force and strict veteran
discipline to former armies, that the chances of
success are decidedly in favour of the EMPEROR.
However, another day may determine, for the
army has now advanced to the ramparts, prepared

to storm them, and the success of General PAS..
KEWITSCH in Asia, must greatly excite their
emulation. Besides the glory of succeeding,
where all have failed before them, must be a
noble incentive to enterprise—and that too with
the feeling that the EMPEROR beholds their
valour :

NEWS FROM THE THEATRE OF WAR.
BICILLIit, AUG. 9,

On the 16th of July, the Emperor's head-quarters were
at !lichenli, and the vanguard had proceeded towards
Jenibazar. Near Varna General Count Suchtelin had a
sharp engagement with the garrison, which made a sally,
and repulsed it with considerable loss.

On the 17th of July, after a very fatiguing march,
through bad roads, broken up by the unfavourable weather,
the Imperial head-quarters arrived at Jasitepe.

General Benkendorff was sent with a detachment to-
wards Pravadi, in order to drive the enemy from that place,
and to make himself master of the communication be-
tween Chonmla and Varna.

The Emperor has issued an order of the day strictly en-
joining the troops to behave with humanity to the enemy,
because the nun were extremely indignant at the Turks
having, according to their custom, cut off the heads of the
Russians who were slain.

On the liith of July the head-quarters moved to Turk-
Arnoutlar, in a fertile country, and on the 19th, they mov-
ed to the eminences of Jenibazar, opposite the enemy's out-
posts, whose tents were seen on the heights of Choumla. Ou
the 20th the army marched towards Choumla, the enemy
consisting of 8 or 10,000 men, cavalry and artillery, vigo-
rously defended the eminences, but were driven back into
the entrenchments before Choumla, and the army imme-
diately bivouacked on the eminences oposite that place.
Our loss is inconsiderable, but the death of Col. Read, the
Emperor's Aide-de-camp, is much regretted. On the
2lst, part of our army occupied without resistance the
heights near Choumla.

Gen. Snchtelin has defeated a body of Turks, who
swam over the Leman to get in the rear of our corps
before Varna. The siege of Silistria was begun on the
21st July.

RESIGNATION OF THE LORD HIGH ADMIRAL.
It has been very strongly reported this fore-
noon that his Royal Highness the Duke of
CLARF.NCE had resigned the Office of Lord
High Admiral. We do not vouch for the
fact, but give the report as we have heard it.
—The conduct of Ministers is said to be the

cause.

The Allgemeine Zeitung of the '7th instant,
received this morning, contains some further
accounts corroborative of the evacuation of the
Morea, in consequence of the stipulations en-
tered into between IBRAHIM PACIIA and the
Allied Admirals :

SMYRNA, JULY' 4.

An English frigate has brought to Vourla the joyful
news that the European. Admirals, and Count Capo
d'lstria, have had an interview with Ibrahim Pacha, and
have made a formal convention with him, to supply his
army with provisions from Zante, on his engaging tp eva-
cuate the Morea. As English brig was sent to Alexan-
dria to procure vessels necessary for the conveyance of the
troops. Till the time that the evacuation shall actually
be effected the blockade of Navarin, Canal, and Alex-
andria, is merely for the purpose of observation, as an ar-
mistice in fact exists. We flatter ourselves here that the
Ambassadors will soon land at Vourla.

GENEVA) ALIO. 1.

We are informed here, that Jacob Rizo, the well known
author of the History of Modern Greece, and of Modern
Greek Literature, has been lent on an extraordinary Alia-
sinn to the Islands of the Archipelago, where be will exer-
cise the functions of a Governor or Prefect.

HAMEURCIIIy JULY 28.

Our journal, have published the Commercial Colwell-

tion which the Hanseatic cities in conjunction, and each
separately, have concluded with North America,rmd which
is extremely important to all Germany, because it concerns
the most important branch of its commerce next to that
with England, as its principal ports, and from the main
rivers, the Elbe and Weser. At the same time the decla-
ration of the Duke of Wellington, in the Upper House,
respecting the policy of England, has inspired here entire
confidence that the peace of the ocean will continue—that
the freedom of the Elbe and the Weser will be employed
only for commercial, and not for military objects--and
that in general cur trade will continue in its regular
course. The fluctuations in the price of stocks, and of
many kinds of goods, have been ended here, as it were, at
a single blow. Only the Turkish war, remote as it is, ap-
pears to have some influence on the prices of corn. They
are slowly rising, though the most abundant harvest al-
ready occupies all hands, and suffers but little from the
continuance of wet (but very warm) weather.
It is understood to be already settled who is to be present
en our part at the conferences to be opened on the 15th of
next month at Cassel, respecting the commercial conven-
tions between the States, which are interposed between
the different parts of the Russian dominions.
At Hildeshiem the new Chapter has been formally
opened by Bishop Von Ledebuhr, of Paderborn, and it
will shortly proceed to the election of a Bishop. The
Government has secured to itself the appointment of one
canon.

VIENNA, Am-x.4r 2.—Metalliques, 93 3-16ths; Bank
Shares, 1,068.

It appears by the New York Enquirer that

the late aggressions of the Brazilian Government
on American commerce have greatly offended

the United States, who are determined to make
reprisals. An American vessel had been burnt
by the Brazilians ; and the Americans have
now ordered several frigates to be in readiness to
proceed to Rio Janeiro to destroy the Brazilian
squadron. Commodore BtDDLE will probably
have the command of the squadron, the vessels
of which will all be commanded by Post Captains.

Brussels Papers of the 13th-inst. contain fur-
ther particulars touching the evacuation of the
Morea by the Egyptians :

VIENNA, AIM. 3.

The Austrian Observer gives to•day news from Corfu
to the 14th July. They announce the arrival in that port
of the French ship of the line La Conguerant, with Ad-
miral de Rigny ; of the Asia, Admiral Codrington, and of
several ether English men-of-war, which came last from
Zante.

According to these letters, Count Capo d'lstria, on
board the Russian ship of the line the Azoff, had sailed on
the 10th from Zante for Dragomestre, in order to have an
interview with General Church. He will afterwards go
to Corfu, where Mr. Stratford Canning and M. de Ri.
beaupierre are shortly expected.
The Corfu Gazette confirms the intention of 'lbrahim
Pacha to evacuate the Morea.

A cutter of the Greek Government, coming from Poros,
has brought to Count Guillesninot despatches from
his Government, and probably also from M. J. de
Sr. Denis, the French Consul at Parcel. He had
entered the port under Creek colours, but as no
armed vessel, either Turkish or Greek, is allowed to
anchor in the port? it was obliged to go out again? till it

obtained permission to anchor in the roads, near the qua-
rantine establishment. 'lbis vessel sailed again on the 14th,
in the evening, and steered a southerly course. News had
been received at Corfu, that the garrison of Coron, chiefly
Albanians, who mutised against Ibrahim, in April, about
their arrears of pay, and afterwards submitted again, after
refusing the proposals of the allied squadrons to deliver up
the fortress to the Greeks, had finally left, to return to Al-
bania through the Peloponneaus.
A letter from Zante, of the 10th July, says, that the
Azoff and a Russian brig, and afterwards the Warspite
with Count Capo d'lstria on board, arrived there on the
night of the Bth. M. Sandrini, the Russian Consul, went
alongside these vessels, and on his return it was reported
at Zaute, that Ibrahim would evacuate the Mores in twenty
days at the farthest.

On the 9th, at ten in the morning, Admirals Codring-
ton and Von Heyden had a conference, and were after-
wards joined by Count Capo d'lstria, whom they received
with the greatest distinction on his landing, and had a
conference of three hours, at which were Sir E. Parker,
commanding the IVarspite, the Captain of the .alvdr, and
Sir E. Codrington's secretary. The same day Admiral
Codrington sent the Racer, with'despatchee, it is supposed,
to Corfu, and Admiral de Rigny. All these ships of war
sailed again by the 13th.

BUIJSVII.2, Aro. 12.
His Majesty has granted to Bruges and Ostend, permis-
sion to form a general entrepStlike that at Amsterdam.

A respectable correspondent has called our at-
tention to the shameless pertinacity of some
prints in persisting to assert that the Right Hon.
CHAS. GRANT is a proprietor of the SuN, and
a contributor to its columns. We have already so
distinctlystated to the contrary, that we had hoped
there would be no further necessity for alluding
to a subject which is evidently persisted
in from the moss obvious as well as unworthy
motives. However, once for all we declare that
the Right Honourable Gentleman has never had
connexion with this paper in any manner what-
ever—he has not advanced a shilling to its ex-
penses, nor contributed a line to its columns.
The success of the SuNhas been entirely owing
to its consistency of character and enterprising
exertions. We would not have deigned to al-
lude to the subject, but for the respectability of
our Correspondent.

The rumour still gains ground that a serious
misunderstanding exists iR the Ministry, touching
not only Foreign but Domestic matters'. It
began with the Bishops, and is not likely to
end with the Jesuits. We know more than we
choose to say at this moment. The Tory prints
had better look to their consistency.

Frankfort Papers of the 7th inst. have been
received, and from their tenour it would appear
that the war in the East is not at all popular with
the Turks, especially those of Smyrna. CAPo
DISTRIA improves in the affections of the
Greeks as his wealth increases :

FRANKFORT, 8110. G.

EXTRACT OF A PRIVATE LETTER FROII SMYRNA, JUT.Y 8.)

To judge by the perfect tranquillity that reigns here,
one would think that the war had not yet begun ; the Turks
do not at all consider this as a national war, they say that
they have been oppressed with taxes to form regular troops,
and that it is now the business of the latter to defend the
country. The Standard of the Prophet is not yet dis-
played, and it is difficult to foresee what effect this event
would have on the people.
" Count Capo D'htria is not beloved in Greece, but as
he now receives more money the Greeks will pay their
Court to him."

FROM.THE DAIVIEK, JULY 27.

The large transfers of Turkish property to Austria by
means of bilk of exchange, &c. continue. All the open
country, up to the foot of the Balkan, is either accompanied
by troops or entirely depopulated of Greek inhabitants : in
Easton Bulgaria intestine war has broken out between the
Greeks and the Turks, in which the Catholics take no part.
At Sophia, the Turks hid formed a corps of volunteers of
800 young men, chiefly rich Greeks. The latter, how-
ever, deceived the vigilance of the Turkish troops, joined
with them, and all went over to the Russians..

The letters from Constantinople of the 12th

uly are of a very warlike description. Since

the PORTE received the news of the surrender
of Brailow on the 18th, they are very active in
their military preparations, all the inhabitants of
the capital are armiag, and a great number of
horses have been put into requisition. The
Grand Vizier is preparing for his departure, but
this will not take place before the lines of the
Balkan and the entrenched camp at Choumla
are carried or turned. Troops are constantly
being sent to Choumla. Great fear is enter-
tained of the serious investment of Varna, and
considerable corps of infantry and. cavalry have
been sent to reinforce that garrison. Order and
tranquillity still prevail at Constantinople.

By the following official communication, it
'will be seen that our Government have given
another proof, if any were wanting, of their im-
becility and base truckling to Despotic Rulers,
wholly regardless of the interests of this country
as well as of the national honour. How MET-
TERNICH the Second. will reconcile this to Eng-
lish reason, remains to be seen ; but from all
th

.at has yet resulted from his foreign policy, .the
nation has bitter cause to cry out ABERDEEN,

avva r

"Foreign Office, Aug. 13.

By the French Papers received this morning
by express, it will be seen that the Russian army,
under General PASKEWITSCH, has taken the
important fortress of Kars, in Asia, by storm.
The loss of the Turks in killed and wounded was
2,000 men, while that of the Russians was very
trifling. Thegarrison amounted to 11,000 men, of
whom 5,000 laid down their arms, and 1,250 were
taken during the assault : 3,000 cavalry escaped

into the mountains : 151 pieces of cannon and
33 standards were taken, besides a considerable

quantity of arms, ammunition, corn, &c.

REVOLT AT RIO JANEIRO.

The, foltowing is from a Guernsey Paper, of
the 12th. August
The brig Three Sisters, arrived here this
morning from the Brazils, brought letters from
Rio to the 14th of June ; we learn from them
that a very serious affray took place on the 12th
of June between the Foreign regiments awd the
Black troops, in which upwards of fifty of the
former were killed
