CONSTANTINOPLEi OCT.. 4.—The Porte has re-
ceived infOrmatiOn'that the Egyptian fleet is rigor-
ously blockaded in •Navarino 'by' the English squa-
dron, and that it is impossible for it to snake any
movement towards the sea. • The Sultan is said to
have been both astonished and irritated by this news;
the more so, as Ibrahim Pacha, in consequence of
the. express desire of his father, Mehemet Ali, has
been authorized.to take every measure to prepare
every operation that he may think advisable, with-
out being answerable to any one besides his father.
The Porte therefore fears that Ibrahim may consent
to a treaty contrary to its interests. The Sultan has,
however, sent a plenipotentiary to Ibrahim.
The -blockade of Navarino, , the appearance of two
Russian ships of war in the Bosphorus, and the
movements of the Russian army in Bessarabia, are
well calculated to induce the Porte et length to ac-
cept the mediation; at least it now shows on every
occasion the greatest respect to M. de Ribeaupierre,
and its conduct in the negotiations carried on by that
Minister relative to the free navigation of Neapoli-
tan and Spanish vessels in the Black Sea, is conde-
scending in the extreme. The Porte has also pre-
sented, its observations on the presence of two ships
of war, rather in the form of an infinitely friendly
document than under that of a reproach. However
satisfied the other European Ministers may be at this
moderate conduct of the Porte, the preparations of
Russia by land do not fail to embarrass them greatly.
It is reported, but without guaranteeing the truth of
it, that some of them having asked of M. de Ribeau-
pierre some information respecting the concentration
of the Russian army on the Pruth, he merely an-
swered that he had nothing official on the subject.

TRIESTE, OCT. 18.—Merchants' letters from
Constantinople say that the Sultan is not disinclined
to concluding an armistice with the Greeks, pro-
vided the Allies wll assemble a Ccngress in Ger-
many, in•which their future fate shall be regulated,
on the understood condition, however, that ' they
shall always remain subjects of the Porte.

SERLIN, OcT. 22.—The exhibition of the articles
of Prussian nianufacture is closed. The. result is,
that the Government, though well satisfied with the
articles exhibited; finds the manufacturers have ma-
nifested too little zeal in the matter. The reason is
-presumed tnbe the discontent of the manufacturers,
founded on the circumstance that foreign goods may
be imported on payment of very moderate. duties,
vvhereas very high ones must be paid in foreign
countries. It is said they will unite to make's re...
presentation to the GovernMent, on a state of things
so prejudicial to the sale of articles of our manufacture.
PAM, OCT. 29.—Some journals hare announced
;that the Viceroy of,E6ypt had caused Byllel Aga,
'Governor of Alexandria, to' be beheaded. This is
not true. The most recent accounts from tli::t city
say, that this man, who was extremely corpulent;
was carried off by an apoplectic fit. Since Mehemet
Ali has held the reins of Government in Egypt, no
act of this kind has occurred.

A letter from Toulon, of the 20th of October,
says—" Nothing transpires here relative to the war
with Algiers. I will only tell you, that a month
ago one of his Majesty's ships captured; on the coast
of Corsica, a corsair under the Algerine flag, with a
crew of about 40 men. They have been brought to
this place, and are now upon their trial; for this
week past they have been conducted every day to
the military tribunal which sits in judgment upon
them. It seems that they are pirates, and according
to all appearance they will be condemned to suffer
capital punishment."
The Florence Gazette, on authority which it de-
clares to be authentic,- confirms the account pub-
lished by the Monitevr of what passed at Navarino
from the 24th to the 27th of September, and adds
some interesting particulars. When the English
and French Admirals visited Ibrahim in his tent, the
latter at first answered with dignity and much
haughtiness." Dangers and death," said he," never
enter the calettlations of a soldier. My ships arc full
of balls and powder, and I must execute the orders
of the Sultan.'-'• On this, Admiral de itigny ats-
nounced " that in case Of extremity the- Egyptian
ammunition would be exchanged for that on boaad
the European ships." After a long conference, how-
ever, the armistice for 20 days was agreed upon.
(From the Constitationnel, Oct. 29.)
VITTORIA, OCT. 21.—The Chiefs of the band of
rebels which was raised in this province, have been
all arrested, and thrown into the prison of our city.
The principal among them is guarded within view,
and his prison is constantly environed by a hundred
men of the battalion of the provincial militia of
Monterey, who have been brought here with the tit.:
most expedition. Seven other individuals of the
same bands, among whom five are officers, who have
been arrested in the environs of Bilboa, and are now
in the prisons of that city, are to be conducted
hither, and judged with those in our prison. They
will probably be all condemned to death, for the
Deputy-General of the province, before taking the
field, had issued the following decree, which has
been published, and which, according to the privi-
leges of our province, has the force of law :
" Art. 1. Those rebels who refuse to surrender at,
discretion on the first summons, shall receive no
quarter. •
" 2. Those who shall unite with the rebels, or
make common cause with them, shall suffer death.
" 3. The rebels taken in arms shall be imme-
diately shot, without according them more time than
is necessary to die as Christians.
" 4. The military or populace who shall rise in
Other parts of the province, shall undergo the penal-
ties indicated in the preceding articles.
" 5. The subalterns and soldiers who give up
their officers shall receive pardon."
(From the Joungd des Debate.)

BUCHAREST, OCT. 11.—The latest accounts from.
the Russian frontiers raise the most enterprising ex-
pectations, and many merchants have already begun
to speculate on them. Several of the first houses
.have given large orders for champaigne, rich har-
ness, and other articles of luxury, for the purpose
of supplying the Russian officers.
MADRID, OCT. 18.—The rebels Saperes and Ca-
rajal, having quitted Manresa and Vich, proceeded
to Llativaneras and Tovello, and from thence, on the
9th, they advanced to attack the head-quarters of
General Monet, who was stationed at Cerbera. The
General was obliged to beat a retreat in order to
join the rest of his division, which ergs on the road to
Lerida and Tarragona ; and even after this junction
he was not in a condition to oppose the rebels; and
was obliged to fall back on Manresa. On the 11th,
a considerable force marched from Tarragona, and
the rebels being obliged to retire to their old posi-
tions on the mountains of Calaf and de Berga, Ge-
neral Monet was enabled to resume his station at
Cerbera. All this proves that the rebels are far
from being destroyed ; and our Gazette itself is
obliged to admit that Saperes still commands a force
of 1,500 men ; and as it does not mention Carajal,
who commands a force equal to that of his colleague,
we may, without hazarding too much, estimate that
these two chiefs have still a force of from 4,1)00 to

5,000 men under their orders.
With the rebel officers who presented themselves
at Tarragona, and who belonged to distant towns, a
depot was formed, which was placed at Billa-Seca,
a small town of the couutry of Tarragona ; but it
appears' that those officersbeing apprised of the ar-
rival of some ships 'of war at Tarragona, took to
flight, fearing they should be deported, as a report to
that effect was in circulation.

MADRID, OCT. 18:—Mjr last informed you, that
by virtue of a dispatch' from his' Majesty, the S,u-
pteme Council of Wit was assembled, to give their
opinion respecting the conduct to be observed to-
wards the chiefs of the factiouswho have submitted.
A rather singular incident retarded their debates
for some momenta. Severe]: Councillors raised
doubts as to the quarter from which this. dispatch
