Extract from a letter from Genoa, dated May
sth, 1821 :-" it is reported, that on the 7th
ult. a terrible massacre took place at Constanti-
nople between the Turks and Greeks, and that
they continued fighting for three days ; but as
it is ship news, it requires confirmation."
Extract from a letter from Constantinople,
dated April 10th, 1521 :--" For the last 15 days
business has been at a stand, and this city all
anarchy and confusion ; the Revolution among
the Greeks in I'Vallachia and Moldavia has given
great alarm to this Government, as they were
apprehensive that all the Greeks in the empire,
were concerned, and in consequence of this, gave
orders for all the Turks in the capital to arm
themselves, to be ready in case of an insurrec-
tion. This arming of the rabble has been the
cause of a number of robberies, and put an end
to businesr; most of the shops have been shut
up, afraid of visits from these fellows. However,
Government have begun to disarm them again,
and have punished a few of the worst, and a
days we trust all will be over."

From circumstances which have come to our
knowledge,•we have every reason to believe that
the Coronation will certainly take place some
time in the course of next month ; and we believe
it is certain that his MAJESTY w ill visit Ireland
almost immediately after.—(licra/d.)

DEATH OF Da. CALLCOTT.-011 Tuesday last,
the 15th, died, in the neighbourhood of Bristol,
Dr. CALLCOTT. This celebrated Musician ob-
tained, early in life, the highest reputation for
original genius and profound science. A very
large share of the delight received by the public
for the last thirty years has been derived from
the performance of his compositions, and as. long
as vocal music continues to be heard or studied,
his name must hold an unrivalled place in the
esteem and admiration of all persons of just
feeling and true taste. Independently of his
professional acquirements, his attainments in
general literature were very extraordinary. But
the more conspicuous features in
.his• character
were.the good, the gentle, and amiable qualities
of his mind. Never has it fallen to' the lot of
any man to excite deeper or warmer. feelings in
the breasts of his friends, or to call forth a more
unbounded sympathy for his aftlictiOnF,

ANECDOTES OF ALI PACIIA.
(Continued from our Paper of the 19:1

V. 'Ara was once reviewing some new levies of soldiers, anti
as a particular company passed before him, he recogniied ana
singled out a man who had committed several atrocities as far

back as 18 years. This man had enlisted without the slightest
idea that ALI, who was then only a boy, would have known fn.:
acts he had been guilty of. The wretch was quickly brought
before the Pacha, who after reciting all the traits of briganda7,e,
of which this man had been guilty, stating the names of the
people who were the victims, and obliging the culprit to acknow-
ledge each fact, took a pistol, and deliberately shot him dead
on the spot, observing to the officers near him, " that he could
still aim well."

VI. An English Gentleman, in the year 1816, paid a visit to
this despot, and, amongst other presents, gave him a pair of
pistols, letting him know, as a recommendation, that they
would, on the slightest touch, go off, nor require such pul-
ling at the trigger as the generality required. Am appeared
extremely pleased at this, and proposed that a proof should
be made. The Gentleman could have no objection, there-
fore the PACITA spoke a few words to an attendant, who with-
drew. In a quarter of an hour ALI went to the window, and
beckoned to his guest, who saw a man in the court below,
bound by cords. ",There," said ALI, "is My mark. 11._-!
is an old ofFender, a robber ;" with these words he fired, and
the unfortunate man fell, shot through the head. Alt de-
clared, with great exultation, that the pistols were excel-
lent, and did great credit to the workman who made them.—
The gentleman of course was obliged to t mother his feelings i❑
the best way he could;• but it is probable that he will never visit

Joannina again.
VII. Ali was deeply in love with a beautiful female of Joan-
nina, named Phrosine. This lady constantly refused him, nor
would she accept the offers of a situation in his harem. Ali
was deeply mortified by her rejection, but for a long time kept
teazing her with solicitations. One day, however, he paid her
a visit, and, as might be expected, received the same denial. Ac-
cidentally taking her hand, he observed a ring on one of her
fingers, which he himself had given to Motarait, his eldest
son.—Jealousy now took place of love, and a burning desire of
revenge occupied his heart, which he gratified in the following
