'1 URKEY.

CONSTANTIN orLE, JUNE 29.-I:he Austrian Charge
d'Affaires ad interim, M. Cletsel, has forwarded to
the Porte a communication from Prince Metternich,
wherein its attention is called to the disorders pre-
vailing in the administration of Bosnia. Numerous
families of Christians had, in consequence of the op-
pression and grinding exactions of the Pacha, taken
refuge in the Austrian territory, and the effect of this
misgovernment is said to be a general insecurity of
the frontier. The Prince expresses his hopes that
the Porte will spontaneously take such measures as
are calculated to restore confidence and tranquillity
to those districts,—that the refugees will be recalled
to their homes, and protected in their persons and
property.
The country of the Montenegrins is also reported
to be in a state of similar disturbance and insurrec-
tion, and the suppression of these disorders has been
alleged as a pretext for marching an additional force
of 2,000 men into Routhelia ; but the real cause of
this reinforcement is, more probably, the precarious
state of the relations of the Porte with the Greek
Government. Negotiations, however, are said to
have at length opened on this subject—protocols are
being already drawn up, and bid fair, before the labour
be complete, to be as ' numerous a progeny as those
brought forth by the Belgian revolution.
. 1 mentioned to you last week that a circular had
been addressed by the Porte to the different Lega-
tions on the subject of the abuse of protection con-
ferred on Ottoman subjects by foreign passports. It
was occasioned, I find, by some previous corespon-
dence which had passed between the Porte and the
Russian Charge d'Affaires. On the complaint of
the Turkish Government with respect to the Rus-
sian protections granted to its subjects at Odessa,
M. Titoff promised to write to Count Woron-
zoff, the Governor of the Crimea. He accord-
ingly did so, and received an answer to the effect
that as the individuals in question ere
re tfhroembearers
of foreign, and not Turkish, pasp
Con-
stantinople, the authorities could not refuse them
Russian passports, when they applied for them on
their departure. If the Porte wished to put a stop to
this abuse, it should take the proper steps at Con-
stantinople. The contents of this letter having been
communicated to the Porte by M. Titoff, the circular
I have alluded to was in consequence dispatched to
the Foreign Legations.
Yermanos, Archbishop of Therapia„ has been elected
to the vacant chair of the Patriarchs He was on the
9th ult., inaugurated at the Porte, and afterwards
harangued by the Grand Vizier, who told him he was
I responsible i'or the loyalty of ten millions of the
Sultan's subjects. Rifat Pacha, ex-minister for foreign
affairs, has been appointed Inspector-General of
Finances in the European provinces of Turkey. He
is to proceed forthwith on a circuit, to fulfil the duties
of his appointment. . -

AFFAIRS OF WALLACHIA.
The following letter from Bucharest, under date of
the 23d June, gives an interesting account of the re-
cent political occurrences in Wallachia :
" General Duliamel has not delayed to make known
the object of his mission, which was to institute
an inquiry into the state of the country, and to
examine the complaints of the General Assembly
against the existing Administration. The first result
of his arrival has been the disinissal of M. le Baron
Michal Ghyka, Minister of the Interior, and elder
brother of the Prince Regent ; and of Ai. Coast Can-
tacuzene, Secretary of State. You are aware that
these two Ministers, and particularly the first, are
accused of being the authors of all the abuses and all
the evils which have desolated the country. The
great Logotheate, Prince Const Soutzo, till now
Comptroller-General of the Finances, has been named
Secretary of State ; and. AI. Stirbey, who is at pre-
sent at Vienna, Minister of the Interior ; AI. le Baron
Gregory Baliano will assume this place, ad inte-
rim, Colonel John Campiniano has been named
Comptroller-General in the place of M. Coast Soutzo.
tis very doubtful if M. Stirbey will accept of the
functions which have been tendered to him. As to
the other nominations they have been viewed with
general satisfaction. M. Const Soutzo has already
given incontestible proofs of capacity and activity ; his
enlightened views and profound information leave
no room to apprehend that his Administration
will not. rapidly repair the mischief caused by
the errors, the carelessnes, and inconceivable apathy
of his predecessor. AI. Campiniano is, among all the
IVallachians, he who possesses the greatest talent,
knowledge, and integrity. His patriotism has been
already proved, he having sacrificed all his fortune in
speculations which had no other object than to awaken
the Wallachians to a sentiment of nationality, and
encourage industry in the country. He has, in short,
suffered severely by long and cruel incarceration, on
account of his opposition to the existing Government.
"It is probable that the entire Ministry will be
changed ; but the members and leaders of the oppo-
sition appear to have' formed a league, in order to ef-
fect the overthrow of the Prince, to whose place they
all of them aspire. It is said even that they have
contracted a formal engageMent with one another not
to accept of any office or any functions whatever be-
fore they have obtained this result.
"M. de Tunoni, the Austrian agent, has received
from his Government, under date of the third instant,
instructions to co-operate with General Duhamel
and the Ottoman Commissioner, with a view of
adjusting and conciliating the differences which have
arisen between the Prince and the General Assembly,
and to restore order to the country. These three
Commissioners are to act in concert for this object.
" The close of the annual session of the General
Assembly took place on the 16th instant. I have

they separated,eterm many of the
determined
upon the
drawing up of a petition, which fourteen of them
immediately signed, and which was to be presented
to General Duhamel, after being clothed with as
many signatures as possible. Although this measure
has hitherto been conducted with the greatest secresy,
it is affirmed that the petitioners demand nothing less
than the deposition of the Prince Regent.
" The Ottoman Commissioner, Shekib Effendi,
Member of the Supreme Council of Justice, and al-
ready distinguished by the missions he has

()
th M. J. Mano,
ful-
filled with success and ability in Greece and also
at London, arrived here yesterday, the 22d in-
sptairneto,toarndofaltihge Administration
had been already prepared for him by the Govern-
ment, which had spared no pains to render his recep-
tion as flattering as possible. His Excellency,
Shekib Effendi, who from the first had succeeded in
producing a strong impression in his favour, de-
clined the guard of honour which had been assigned
to him, and which immediately withdrew at his
request. Shekib Effendi is the bearer, among other
testimonials of the satisfaction of the Sublime Porte with the great zeal and fidelity displayed
by the Prince on the occasion of the late disturbances
at lbrailow, of a sword of honour, as a present to him,
and which is very splendid and costly. He is also
the bearer of a firtuan, which is to be read with much
solemnity in the presence of the Prince, and all the
great Boyars assembled, provided always that General
Duhamel do not oppose this proceeding, as it is said to
be his intention to do."
