HANIBURGH PAPERS.

CONSTANTINOPLE, AUG. 11.—The Reis Effendi
said lately to a European Dragoman, " The Sultan
will take the field at the head of his people, and the
issue of the contest is in God's hands." The sole
reason of the deferring of the departure of the
Grand Vizier, from Daud Pacha to Adrianople, is
said to be, that the Sultan's astrologers declared the
that days of the month Safar to be unlucky. The
Sultan's resolution was approved by the great men
of the Empire, but, as it seems, not by the lower
classes. The line of defence from Silistria to Terkas,
near Karabowma, is no other than the old position
occupied by the Emperor Anastasius, in 532, but
which at that time did not answer the end proposed.
The Sultan has spared the life of Solyman Pacha,
of Brailow, but has banished him to Mitylene.
The army of the Grand Vizier consists of 8,000
Asiatics, 4,000 regulars, and 4,000 militia, all pretty
well armed. While the Sultan is at Remasch Pacha,
his Harem will be removed to the Seraglio of his sis-
ter in the suburbs of Ejub. '
The Europea❑ officers who attended Hussein
Pacha to Shnmla, to teach the troops the new ex-
ercise, are for the most part, come back. It seems
they have been sent away from distrust. However,
they directed the measures of defence that are now
begun. According to their account, this campaign
is attended with many difficulties to the Russians;
—The Cossacks, it seems, are no match for the
Spahis; and as the Turks in their retreat lay waste
everything, there is nothing to gratify their love of
plunder. The firmer), too, forbidding the Turks to
cut off the heads and ears of the enemy, is not car-
ried into effect by Hussein Pacha, and this serves
to inflame the- fury of the Spahis. The enemy's
army, it is added, is not well supplied with pro-
visions.

ODESsA, AUG. IS.—ln consequence of late events
an order of Government has been published at the
Custom-house, by which the exportation of corn is
prohibited from every port of the Black Sea.

COPENHAGUN, Auci. 30.—The marriage of the
Princess Willhelmina Maria to Prince Frederick
Charles Christian is said to be fixed for the 7th of
November.

STOCKHOLM', AUG. 29.—We understand that the
opening of the Diet is fixed for the 4th of November

CONSTA NTINOPLE, AUG. 12.--Yesterday the
Sultan solemnly announced that he would shortly
march into the field, with the Sanschaki-Scherif (the
sacred banner) and the levy en masse, which is esti-
mated at 300,000 men, but probably much exagge-
rated. In the first instance his Highness will oc-
cupy a camp at Ramisch Pacha, beyond the suburb
Ejub. Ejub and Daud Pacha are already being for-
tified by English engineers. It is extremely probable
that the Sultan will remain here as long as possible,
as he alone is capable of maintaining tranquillity in
the capital, which upon his departure might become
a prey to the most dreadful disorder. If the Rus-
sians should succeed in overpowering Sharnla,
struggle of despair awaits them under the walls of
Constantinople. The preparations making evidently
announce a consciousness of approaching danger;—
but the Government continues nevertheless to pub-
lish accounts of victories obtained over the Russians
near Silistria, Shumla, and Varna. On the 9th the
Grand Vizier proceeded in great state to Daud
Pacha*, and in a few days he will proceed at the
head of the whole army to Adrianople, whither he
will be accompanied by the public functionaries.—
The Ministers remain with the Sultan.
.The late
Iciala Rey, Hulussud-Effendit, has been named
Kaiinakan.

AUG. 14.—Every one is ender arms here. Almost
all the Turkish shops are dosed. Trade is at a
complete stand-still. On the 7th of the Moon of
Satar (Aug. 20), it is now said, the sacred banner
will he planted, and the Sultan will then proceed to
his camp at Ramisch-Pacha.

4' The Austrian Observer of the 2(ith contains an ar-
tinle from Constantinople, dated a day earlier than this, in
which the Grand Vizier is still spoken of as present in the
capital, and not likely to leave it for some days.
t In the Austrian Observer the new Kaimakan is
called Ahmed Chelussi-Effendi.

Al ARCM IS or ANGLESEA.—Yesterday even-
ing about four o'clock, the Loan LIEUTENANT, ac-
companied by Lord War. PAGET, and his Excellency's
younger sons, Lords GEoftuF and AILFRXD, and the SoLI-
VITOR-GENMIAL, arrived in town in his travelling car-
riage and four, and after paying a visit to his estates at
Carlingford, the Noble Marquis and suite drove on,
without stopping, to Richview.—Dublin Freeman's Jour-
nal, of Saturday.

The Russian fleet sailed on Thursday morn-
ing, under the command of the Commodore, the wind
blowipg a light breeze from E.N.E. They were lost sight
of from the !Joe by two o'clock numbers of persons lined
the heights to witness their sailing. Yarions rumours are
afloat its to their ultimate destination, but we think there
can be no question but that they are directly intended to
strengthen the Itussian naval power in the Mediterranean,
rind not, as has been surmised by some, to replace the fleet
now there, which they state is to return home oa the arrival
of these ships. The Russian officers deny that they were
instructed, as has been repc..rted, not to touch at any British
port.—Depooport herald, Sept. 6.
REDUCTION OF INTEREST.—We are given
to understand that the bankers of this neighbourhood are
about to reduce the interest on deposits, from three to two
and a half per cent. in this day's paper we publish a
notice from *the Savings' Bank, announcing a reduction of
interest, which is to be_ general in these establishments
throughout the kingdom. The Commissioners of Devon-
port have, in consequence of this depreciation in the value
of money, resolved to pay off the poll deeds, of 40i, each,
borrowed on the rates of the parish mans, years since,
thereby causing a reduction of the poor
rates
amounting to 6,0001., and to borrow the same amount at
four
poefrl3oc 17 t.per' atiaarn.--Devoliport Telegraph,
