(From the Moniteur of
,Mondayee..isten-Official Part,)
CosTANTiNoPLE, Nov. 16.—On'the 6th, news
was received at Constantinople that Freyler, sup-
ported by Lord Cochrane, had made a landing on the
Isle z)f Sej(kalld 00 the Peelle eml. the Turks had
been obliged to retire into the fort,
The news of this expedition, in whieli the Turks
suspected the Allies of having taken part, arrived
while the Divan was delibeeatiug on the steps to be
taken in consequence of the events at Navarin : it
greatly increased the irritation already felt.
The Reis Effendi declared on the Vt tq the
Dragomans of England, France, and Russia,' That
all intercourse between the Porte and the represen-
tatives of• the three. Courts were suspended till the
inomsmt when it should be known whether.tbey (the
Courts) desisted from' all interference in the tgraile
of Greece, whether his Sublimity should receive an
indemnity for the losSes and damage caused by the
destruction of his fleet, and whether he should te-
ceive satisfaetien for the insult which had been offer-
ed him." This declaratiOn produced on the 10than
answer ;rem the AMbassadors, which is believed to
contain the'demend of their passports.
It was affirmed that on the very day when the
Turkish Declaration was made to the Dragomans of
the Allied Courts, the Reis Effeedi e4ipcgra note to
be delivered to the Austrian interntineioA in which
the Porte, protesting a desire to' remain at peace
with the Allied Powers, netwithstaptlipg• the affair
'of.Nayarin, requested the mediation of Austria.
It•was said that the conditions fixed by, the Porte
for this reconciliation with the Powers, appeared of
such a nature that they would net be accepted
According to letters from Smyrna of the 6th,
Admiral De Rigny was there with part of his squa-
dron, and had taken, with the ships of war of all
the, other nations, and with the consent of the Pacha,
a position which enabled him to protect the Euro-
pean merchants and the Franks, in case the Mussul-
man pepuletioe should he disposed to acts pf vio-
lence towards them. However, all was trenquil,
d the Pacha maintained perfect order.
It was tk same at COrtstfnnincple, where the
Turkish Autherities are observed to take every pre-
caution to prevent any interruption of order and
tranquillity. Meaptime the AthbasSadors, and the
subjects of their nations, were making every prepa-
ration for their embarkation and departure.
4t Constantinople the greatest activity prevailed
in the arsenals, to prepare for war. Orders have
been sent to all 'the provinces, to call upon the Mus-
selmep to defend their laws and their religion,
The Imperial Palace at Adrianople was preparing
to receive the Sultan, who will go there when he
puts himself at the head of the army.
Troops and ammerdtion have been sent to Silist,

to put the fortresses on the Danube in a state of de-
fence; the Principalities are given up as not capable
of being defended,

PAltts, DEc. 1.--The following details hale been
circulated relative to the visit made yesterday to the
Hotel Dieu, by the First President, Seignier, and
the other lagistrates of the Cour Royale. All the
young intern pupils; who assisted at this sad inquiry,
appeared penetrated with respect and admiration for
the Worthy Magistrate, who presided over the search
for truth with that noble frankness and that love of
justice which characterise him. One of them, who
has bestowed all his care upon-the wounded, has
been directed to draw up a report, which will be
ready in two or three days. Being examined as to
how a man, struck by a bullet in the leg, had been
wounded, the pupil declared, in the most positive
manner, that the shot must have been fired with the
muzzle of the piece cloie to him, which the wounded'
man also affirms, as Well as that it was a gendarme
who fired on him.
The persons wounded, who have been examined
as to whether it was true that shots were fired from
the windows, have unanimously declared the fact. to
be untrue.

Amongst the victims is a young man of seventeen,
the hope and the honour of his family, who, by his
resignation, his unalterable gentleness, and his ho-
nourable sentiments, has' inspired, on his bed of sor-
row, the most lively interest in all those who sur-
round him. He has been struck by a bullet in the
chest, and no hope remains of saving him. To-
morrow, perhaps, said those young pupil; to us,
With tears in their eyes, to-morrow lie will cease
to exist!
Before coming to him the First President caused
him to be asked if he should be able to receive one
of the Magistrates singly, and give him some expla-
nations. The moment that the dying man darned
that justice was there he instantly revived. " Let
them all enter," cried he, " let them come; I long
to tell them all that I know." He answered the
interrogatories as long as his strength allowed him,
and after the Magistrates went away he said to the
young persons who surrounded him, " Now I am
more tranquil, I shall die content, or I am quite
aware that death approaches; but at all events I
carry with me the hope that justice will be done my
Memory and my family."
The Cour Royale will on Monday resume its so-
lemn Sittings for the trial of matters relative to
questions of state. The first cause to be called on
concerns the validity of 'a marriage. celebrated be-
tween a Frenchman and a French widow at Spring-
.field near Gretna Green. This marriage, the nullity
of which is sought for by the woman, has been con-
sidered as not having taken place, by the -Tribunal
of the First Instance, for want of the preliminary
publications prescribed by the regulations of the
Civil Code.

(PRIVATE CORRESPONDETICE.)

BARCELONA, Nov. 24. fhe Spanish Officers
have been verbally directed by their Commander
not to appear in the coffee-houses, the promenades,
or other places frequented by the French Officers;
they have been also warned to abstain, under pain of
the displeasure of the General in Chief, who would
moreover inform his Majesty of it, from frequenting.
or establishing any kind of social relation with per-
sons of Constitutional opinions, or with those who
should entertain sentiments favourable of the system
of the rebels. .

As to other matters, a system of terror continues
to reign throughout all Catalonia. Executions are
very frequent at Tarragona. The prisons of name-
boor' are so crowded with prisoners from-the country,
that it is not possible to put in a single man more.
In fine, a great um m
number of rebel officers who carne in
on the faith of the amnesties, have been sent to the
galleys at Porto Rico, and others drag the bullet at
Tarragona and. other towns of Catalonia, where they
are cprnwlled to labour on the public works.

LONDON,
WEDNESDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 5, 1827,

No further intelligence has been received at

the Foreign Office, from our Ambassador at Con

stantinople, since the 6th of November. The
accounts already received up to the 40th, have
been through the Austrian Ambassador. Go-
vernment are _in hourly expectation of further
news. .

The statement which we gave yesterday, from
the Gazette de France of Monday, of the de-
parture of the Atribassadors from Constantinople,
has received additional corroboration, though not
entire confirmation, by the intelligence contained
in the Moniteut of Monday and the Gazette de
Fiance of yesterday, which reached us by ex-
,.
press this morning.
It appears by an article in the non-official part
of the Moniteur,- dated Constantinople, Nov.
10, that intelligence of an . attack by Lord
COCHRANE and Colonel FABVIER on the
island of Scio arrived at the moment when the
Divan were deliberating on the steps to be taken
in consequence of the events at Navarin. The
Allies were immediately suspected of having taken
part in this expedition, and the irritation already
felt was greatly increased by it. On the 9th the
REIS EFFENDI declared to the Dragomans,
" that all intercourse between the Porte and the
representatives of the three Courts was suspended
till the moment when it should be known whether
they desistedfrom all interference in the affairs of
Greece,—whether his Sublime Highness should
receive an indemnity for the losses and damage
caused by the destruction of his fleet,—and
whether he should receive satisfaction fbr the
insult which had been offered him." This de-
claration produced.on the 10th an answer from
the Ambassadors, which it is believed containe
the demand of their passports.

The same 'article states, that it liras affirmed
that, on the very day the Turkish declaration was
made to the Dragomans of the Allied Courts,

the REIs EFFENDI delivered a note to the Aus-
trian Internuncio, in which the Po RTE, protesting
its desi're to remain at peace with the• Allied
Powers, notwithstanding the affair of Navarin,
requested the mediation of Austria ; but it

was said that the conditions fixed by the
PORTE for this reconciliation appeared of
such a nature that they would not be
accepted. At Constantinople the greatest acti-

vity prevailed in the arsenals. Orders had bee:
sent to all the provinces to call upon the Mussu]

men to defend their laws and their religion. The
Imperial Palace, at Adrianople, was preparing to
receive the SULTAN, who will go there when he

puts himself at the head of the army. Troops
and ammunition had been sent to Silistria, to
put the fortresses on the Danube in a state of
defence. The Principalities were given up as
incapable .of being defended.
Such is the substance of the intelligence, con-
veyed by the Moniteur, which exactly corres-
ponds with the accounts which had reached us
by other channels. There can be but little
doubt of the truth of the report of the departure
of the Ambassadors, immediately subsequent to
the date...of this intelligence.
• The Gazette de France, 'dated Tues-
day, contains the above article from the
Moniteitr. It has also a long article on the
Elections, in defence of M.. de VILIIELE, «who
(it says) will re-enter the Chamber of Deputies,
and there, surrounded by his numerous friends,
preserve, by the ascendancy of his talent

and his unvarying moderation, the influence he
has always exercised." It adds a list of all the

new Menlbers

TOULON, Nov. '26.—We are in daily expectation of the

miral.de Rigny is now shifted to the Trident.

squadron which is so much damaged, as to stand in need of
repairs, which could not be executed in the ports of the

A letter from BarcelOna (dated Nov. 27) announces
that part of the posts had been relieved early the same
morning by the Spanish troops, with the most perfect her-
mony, that the materiel belonging to the Spaniards had
been surrendered with the accustomed forms. The effects
belonging to the French had been embarked. The pro-
cesses verbal have given general satisfaction. In short, the
public opinion had been testified in favour of the French,
by a thousand acts of courtesy.
