HAMBURGH PAPERS.

CONSTANTINOPLE, MARCH 2.5.—0ur situation
has become much worse during the last three weeks.
The dearness and scarcity of bread increase so
much, in consequence of the ruinous blockade, that
the people, in their despair, begin to murmur loudly.
The Ulemas and Military Chiefs seem to be very
much dissatisfied. A Erman, containing new regu-
lations for dress, by which many thousands are
thrown out of employment, has increased the dis-
content to the highest degree. Only the Sultan,
whose departure is delayed in consequence of this
state of things, continues to forward all his military
preparations and other measures of security with
his wonted energy, He appears every where
laeognito, and neglects nothing to preserve the pub-
lic tranquillity during this terrible crisis. But
should an explosion take place, the most frightful
excesses may be expected; for it is not to be for-
gotten that the great mass of the Mussulmen, in
their present distress, believe that there is a general
combination against Mahometanism.
At one of the late masquerades, in the hotel of
Bards Ottenfels. the Austrian Internuncio, at Pera,
there were two Arab masks. Nobody imagined
that they were, as afterwards proved to be the case,
the Sultan himself, accompanied by his favourite
Berber Baschi.
CONSTANTINOPLE, MARCH 26.—The Sultan has
not left the capital, but the preparations for his de-
parture continue. The increasing alarms probably
have had some influence. It is known that the
Russians have landed at Incada, twenty-seven leagues
from the capital. A great nut,iber of fugitive Turks
have arrived from that place, and communicated
their fears to the inhabitants. The capital, it is
true, has nothing. to fear from such attacks on dif-
ferent parts of thee t; bat they are evidently de.
signed to excitetzlarms in the already tineantented
minds of the people, and will, most probably, not
miss their object. The scarcity of bread become;
more serious ; the caravan from Smyrna does not

arrive, and prices rise daily. For thirty-two months
the people have borne all with great patience, but
there is no prospect of a termination of their dis-
tress. The Sultan does his utmost to meet the
dangers from without ; and, as new taxes were out
of the question, has applied to the Ulemas for a
loan from the large possessions of the Mosques, but
they have not yet complied with his wish.
For these three weeks past the Divan has met
almost daily. A firman forbids the inhabitants to
carry arms, though only six weeks since they were
expressly ordered to do so. Another firman pre-
scribes to all Mussulmen regulations for their dress,
which are too contrary to their manners and customs
not to excite the greatest dissatisfaction.
The fleet lies at anchor off Bujukdere ; whether
it will sail to the Black Sea or the Archipelago, is
not known. The first is the more probable. Twelve
fine ships and a corvette returned from the Darda-
nelles on the 17th, to join the squadron.
The village of Farraraki, inhabited by Greeks, ;at
the entrance of the Bosphorus, was occupied a few
days ago by 3,000 Turkish troops. The unfortunate
inhabitants were all expelled, and some, accused of
an understanding with the Russians who landed at
I eads, a►e arrested. Tl►e village has since been
strongly entrenched.
STOCKHOLM, APRIL 14.—The solemn obsequies
of the Princess Sophia Albertina are fixed for the
29th instant. The expense is estimated at 50,000
rix-dollars Banco. Preparations are making for the
coronation of the Queen, which is expected to take
place in the beginning of June. Dr. Rosinstein
(the Archbishop) visits her Majesty several times in
the week, to instruct her in the Lutheran religion.—

HAMBURGII, APRIL. 24.—Borsen-Halle, Four

been large, the greater part remains unsold.
