It was considered very likely that the Russians
in Armenia would also march towards the Turkish
Frontiers in Asia, in order to distract the ope-
rations of the Turks. Of this we have n®
doubt, for the circumstance of the Persian war has
afforded the Russiaiis an unlooked-for opportunity
of taking advantage of an affair which it would
have taken several campaigns to accomplish.
There is no hope for the Turks but in sub-
mission, and that speedily :

BUCIIAREST, APRIL 20.

A Tartar has arrived from Constantinople with letters to
the with, according to which no change has taken place
in the capital. The Bairain, which both Christian and
Turks had rooked forward to with apprehension, had
pasSed over quietly. Some days before a report was spread
aruong.the Turks that there was a plan to assassinate the
Sultan, which would be followed by a revolution. This
report caused such alarm, that people afterwards fancied
they had escaped a great danger.
Letters from Jassy, of the 17th, say that Count Wittgen-
genstein was going to review his troops, after which it
seemed that they would pass the Pruth and the Danube at
the same time.

TRIESTE, Arm', 30•

Accounts from Zante of the 17th, say that an English
ship of the line and a brig, had sailed from that island with
troops for Cerigo. A Greek brig front Corfu, with the
brother of Count Cap& d'lstria on board, had proceeded
to Greece, after a short stay. 'The armed Greek vessels
cruising en the coast of the Mores, render it very difficult
even for small vessels with provisions to enter the ports oc-
cupied by the Turks in the peninsula.

VIENNA, MAI 3.

We have not yet received netvs of any offensive operations
by the Russian armies on the Turkish frontiers. For some
days past it has been reported that the Russians swill by no
means confine their operations to the occupation of the
principalities, which are without defence, but cross the Da-
nube at the same time probably at Galatz. Some persons
even affirm that at the same time an invasion of the pro-
vinces of Asiatic Turkey will be made from Armenia.

THE FUNDS-(THIS DAY).

Consols opened this morning at 83 the only
fluctuation since has not exceeded per cent. de-
cline; they afterwards became buyers at and may
now be quoted sellers. There is no alteration in
the premium on Exchequer Bills, which continue at

The sole attention of the speculators in the Foreign
Funds has been, with the exception of making up
accounts for to-morrow, in Mexican Bonds, and
there have been some heavy sales made by the public
in the Five per Cent. Bonds at 30; the Six per Cents.
opened at 42, rose to 42 3, but have since declined
to 401,.- 1, and are now 41 After the agitation
which took place yesterday in this security, the
dealers appear desirous to reason a little calmly on the
actual information received, and owing to the non-ar-
rival of the packet, which sailed on the 17th Mardi,
they expect she may bring intelligence of a more deci-
sive nature; for, although 400,000 dollars are reported
to be at the disposal of Government, and that it will
probably be sent to this country for the payment of
dividends, yet there is nothing so positive as to
justify it being considered as certain. Brazilian are

The St. Petersburgh Commercial Gazette
states, that among the inhabitants of the western pro-
vinces of the empire, the prejudice against silk and cotton
articles of Russian manufacture has not yet subsided. This
is attributed to the fraudulent practice of traders, chiefly Jews,
who introduce similar commodities of the worst description,
and at lowest prices, from foreign countries, into the Rus-
sian States, where they pass them as the produce of
to na-
tional industry, and sell them as such at a profit of 100
per cent.. It has, therefore, been suggested to Russian ma-
nufacturers to establish agencies in the provinces subject
the impositions, in order to counteract their effects, and
raise the credit of Russian manufactures to the extent to
which their superior quality seems to entitle them.

cutta, we learn that in the outward voyage to that place,
