Copy of a rescript addressed to Vice-Admiral
Codrington, by his Imperial Majesty the Em-
peror of Russia :
" St. Petershurgh, Nov. 8.

" Vice-Admiral Codrington,—You have achieved a vic-
tory for which civilized Europe ought to be doubly grate-
ful to you. Ttie memorable battle of Navarin, and the
bold mameuvres whicb preceded it, evince to the world not
only the extent of the zeal of t rte great Powers in favour
of a cause, the noble character Of shah is still more
heightened by their own disinterestedness; but also prove
what can be effected by firmness, though opposed to num-
bers ; aud what a well-directed valour can accomplish
against blind co!irage, with whatever force that courage
may be supported. Your name from this time forward
belongs to posterity.
~By praise I should but weaken the
71ory that surrounds it. But I must offer to you a bril-
liant mark of the gratitude and esteem which you have in-
spired in Russia. With this view, I' Send to you here-
with the Military Order of St. George. The Russian
Navy is proud of having obtained your commendation at
Nayarit' ; and, on my own part, I feel the most lively
pleasure in thus assuring you of the sentimetits of consi-
deration which I entertain towards you.

LONDON,
SATURDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 22, 1827.

We have received this morning the Allge-
meine Zeitung of the 15th instant. It con-
tains intelligence from Constantinople to the
25th ult., which, if trite, is of the highest im-
portance, namely, that the PORTE had resolved
on the 24th November to negociate with the
Allies, and had again asked the mediation of
Austria. But the German .Papers appear to
have lent themselves so frequently, of late, to the
propagation of news as authentic, which rested
on very uncertain information, and frequently
proved groundless, that we hesitate in giving
full credence to these accounts, particUlarly.
as we observe that the date . assigned for
the sudden change of the. resolution of the
PORTE is the 24th, up to which day our
"cloVernment aespataiei"from Mr:
CANNING some days since, which did not
contain this news. If such a change in the de-
termination of the Divan had taken place imme-.
diately after the long conference which the Am-
bassadors had with the Kars trFENDI on
that day, it is hardly possible that Mr. CAN-
NING would have delayed communicating to his
Government such very important news. We
must therefore still wait the arrival of further de-
spatches before all uncertainty on the question
can be considered as removed. The following
