FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

IrrseErait •
CONSTANTINOPLE,( e2E9itiieThe official answer 'of
the Porte td the Russian Ultimatum was not announced
until this day, nbr communicated to any Member of the
Diplomatic Body, M. Minziacky hating threatened to
leave the capital immediately, the Reiti Effendi declared to
him that he had already sent the necessary instructions td
Akermann, and that they would at that time be known to
the Coinmissioners of each party: lie inveighed in the
most bitter manner against the arrogant spirit of Russia.—
The whole of the evasive respOnies, of the Tarkitt Minis-
ter have indeedbeen accompanied by a torrent of reptidathee
upon the conduct of Russia, which he designates as op-
posed to every principle of propriety, and also to that re-
spect which is due from one State, to another, agreeably to
the rights of nations. The interpreter of the Russian Em-
bassy, Tranchini, endeavoured in vain to calm the
ill humour of the Reis Effendi, and to learn the answer of
the Porte, which has probably been sent to Akermann,
that he might be able, as he said, to regulate himself in re-
spect to the preparations for the departure of the Officers
of the Embassy. The Reis Effendi merely declared, that
the forces of the Ottoman Empire were neither so weaken..
ed nor so broken down as the rest of Europe- imagined,
and it is said that he employed, on the supposition of a
case of pressing necessity, a comparison, which, however
strange it may appear, gave the interpreter sufficiently to
understand that the Porte, shonld a war take place, could
calculate apon foreign assistance.
M., de Minziacky who, on the other hand, had received
intelligence from Moscow, that the Emperor had been
displeased at the delay grunted to the Porte, and fixed, in
the first instance, for the 25th September, had been pro-
longed to the.27th October, is not a little embarrassed by
this answer, because the task .of terminating the confer-
ences depenthi entirely upon the Turkish Commissioners
at Akermanni and not knowing what instructions have
been sent to them, he its at a loss what conduct to follow.
It is thought that the Divan, in promising the ratification
of the Sultan to the formal acceptance of the Ultimatum,
is desirous of preserving sufficient liberty to gain time; and
at last, as circumstances may turn out, to disavow or ap-
prove of the conduct of the Turkish Negociators. How•
ever complicated the present reports are, the greater part
of the diplomatists ate of opinion, that the Porte is merely
haggling, in order to obtaia better conditions; and that
the Commissioners have secret instructions to grant every
thing, if necessity require it. This opinion appears so
much the more probable, that no preparations are making
for war, which the Porte, moreover, under present. cir-
cumstances, 'is incapable' of carrying on.
VIENNA, OCT. 18.—It Is said, that a part of the Rus-
sian troops, which are stationed in the Crimea, have been
embarked at Sebastopol, on board a Russian fleet, com-
manded by Admiral Greig, in order to be -transported to
the mouth of the Phasis. Lieutenant-General Woronzow,
one of the Russian Convnissioners at Akermann, set out
in great haste for the Crimea, to urge the march of these
reinforcements.
The Internuncio of Austria,,Baron d'Ottenels, who had
gone for the reestablishment of his health, to the baths at
Broussa, returned on the 22d to Constantinople. On the
same day the French Ambassador, Lieutenant-General
Count de Guilleminot, arrived from Paris, accompanied
by his brother-in-law, General Ferning, Baron Beugnot,
and the rest of the suite of the Embassy.
PARIS, OCT. 24.—1 t is quite certain, since he affirms
it, that M. de Jouy heard, with his two ears, Telma cry
out three times, that he wished to die like Voltaire; but
it is quite certain also, according to all the information that
has reached us, that Telma neither said so three times,

nor once. .

VIENNA, OCT. 18.—The Austrian Observer publishes
the following news from Turkey :
The Turkish Government; taught by experience, and
not being able immediately to order the streets in, general
to be widened, and the houses built of stone, has com-
manded that the partition walls at least shall be of stone,
and has purchased plots of ground, on which public build-
ings are to be erected, with court-yards, void spaces, and
stone walls. These measures may diminish the chances
of danger.
It is said that part of the Russian troops stationed in
the Crimea have been embarked at Sebastopol, on board
the Russian fleet, commanded by Admiral Greig, to be
conveyed to the mouth of the Phasis. Lieutenant Gene-
ral Woronzoff, one of the Russian Commissioners at Aker-
mann, had set out in all haste for the Crimea, to accelerate
the departure of these reinforcements.

If the restrictions on freely publishing one's .thoughts
be displeasing to the Genovese, they can only blame them-
selves. We can, however, affirm, without danger of eon-

the law itself. Never, in other respects, were circumstan-
ces more' favourable for Switzerland assuming that firm
and noble attitude which is suitable to a frpe state. 'We
therefore await the result of the wisdom and patriotism of
the Diet.

BUENOS AYRES, AUG. 4.--The Brazilian squa-
dron continues to cruize in sight of the City, an the
result of an encounter which took place between it
and the ships belonging to this State, on the 30th ult.,
is► likely to render the blockade still more effectual.
With the exception of one open boat, manned by Eng-
lishmen, We know of no privateering out of this place,
but we believe one or tw►o vessels are in preparation
for this object in the river.
