LONDON,
WEDNESDAY EVENING, MAY 6, 1529•

The Allgemeine Zeitung of the .9th April bog
been received this morning. Tl:e note of prepara-
tion for the war daily sounds louder and brisker.
The Russians are congregating their forces on the
Danube, and collecting their heavy artillery tosvard9
Silistria and Giurgevo, which they will endeavour
to capture as quickly as possible, as their possessicin
with Rudshuck, on the opposite side of the river'
would secure -the safety and accelerate the future
progress of the invaders in their advance into
Bulgaria, and even Roumelia. Meantime the 'forks
are not idle ; but it cannot be denied that the Pi'
sians have acquired more knowledge as well es
advantage in the last campaign than the Turks:
and that the Russians will not fail turn
all
the:e to account in the present campaign. The
possession of Varna is of the last importance'
as affording them a ready access to their supplies With'
out the labour and risk of carriage overland through'
the swamps on either side of the Danube. Varna is ill
fact a halfway house to Constantinople, securing
the ready advance of the Russians to: the foot of
the Balkan, for the Turks do not appear to possess
an army sufficiently strong to oppose their progress'
in the open field. However, there can be little'
doubt, from the desperate bravery exhibited by the •
Turks during the last campaign, that they will 0*
the Russians a very unwelcome reception. •
While General DIEBITSCII is preparing to strike,
a decisive blow on land, Admiral HEYDEN is
vowing to detach the Pacha of EGYPT from the
service of the Porte in the Mediterranean. He has
already captured two vessels of war belonging to the
PACIIA, and hints that if MEIIEMET ALI Will abstain
from helping the Turks, the ships will be restored
to him by the Emperor of RUSSIA. It is certairill,
very dexterous policy on the part of the Admiral to,
weaken the Porte by causing the defection of the
Paella of EGYPT, but we do not think lie Will

succeed :
The Russian army is concentrating about Rudsehuksnci
Silistria, and every thing announces that a serious strata
on those two fortresses is intended. The most vigorou be
use of the. very numerous artillery, in particular, may ,
expected. New hospitals continue to be got in order:.
though the buildings already employed as such are alTos..._,
free from sick, and could contain a great number. La
week several Boyards at Bucharest quitted their palaces, sr
the military administration took possession of them for fir
hospitals. Large magazines for military stores of all king'
are forming out of the city, in order to make good itnote;
diately wh,tcver may be deficient in the army. The gran('
head-quai ters are expected at Bucharest. There Lave al-
ready been several engagements near Ghiurgevo.

Candia. Five days before they had captured a brig %vita
provisions for Candia, and sent it to Poros. They had
sent to the same place a merchantman, which had on hoar
several Turkish families, intending to go from Rhodes to
Candia, but this was immediately set at liberty by .44-`,l‘.
mire! Ileyden's orders, who, on the 22d FebruarYs ad
dressed the following letter to Admiral Malcolm
" On board the Azoff, Feb. 10, (22), 1829,
" The positive information I had received from Smyroe'
Constantinople, and Alexandria, of the object of the arnt°ci
meats making at the latter port, have obliged me to se°
some ships of war to cruise between Candia and Rbodeei
in order to oppose any hostile movement on the part °
Mehetned Ali. My.cruiseks having taken an EgyPti°
frigate and brig in those seas, I immediately sent
(of which I enclose a copy) to the Paella of Egypt, ,31:1

tion which characterises my proceedings will make the

Pacha sensible of his true interest, and enable me to Prr
vent disagreeable collisions. I have the honour, Stc•

" Your Highness—Long before the departure of
Egyptian troops from the Morea, I had frequent oe.
casions to prove to your Highness the amiable new
timents of my Sovereign,' the Emperor of Russia, t°*.
wards your Highness, and bow much I endeavoured t°
reconcile my duties with the regard due to your si tus'
all the
tion and character. It is unnecessary to allege
facts that prove this. It will merely put your Niel
ness in mind of the zeal with which, a few months ago,
cheerfully gave safe conduct to the Egyptian ships in we
Archipelago. His Majesty afterwards gave another pr°°i
of the generous sentiments that animate him, by restoriog
to liberty, after the taking of Yarns, two Beys, your r
tions, allowing them to return to Egypt with rich preseote*
I regret to say, that your Highness appears not to have sect'
this moderation in its true light. A proof of ibis
is the sending of M. Ptzzorei from Alexandria, thoogr
you had formerly authorised him to remain there. 11",,e1
hostile measure was accompanied by others still 0.°7,
hostile to Russia ; considerable armaments were lately
'4
prepared at Alexandria against that Power, and I find ,41,
impossible to be an indifferent spectator of armament"
evidently intended against the forces of the Emperor col
Sovere;gri, and I am ob!iged to secure myself against eventlf
the responsibility of which would fall on me, if, nt't;
withstanding the iositive inforniation I have received .°
the real object of your Highness's armaments, I persisted
disregard to them, which might be detrimental w the,
land and naval forces of Russia. Thus circumstance!
hive obliged me to order the ships of war under I°/
conimand to take possession of the Egyptian ships of Wiri
which may have left, or shall hereafter leave, the Pore ii°,;
Alesandrii. I must regret to have to inform your Big r„
'less than an k_ptian cot vette and brig have in e°° •

quence fallen into my hands. Lamenting this event, which
can be considered only as a means of precaution on my
part, I can give no more evident proof of my amicable
sentiments, than by leaving those ships in the state in
Which they Were when they fell into my hands, and assur-
ing your Highness that I shall keep them in depot till I re-
ceive his Majesty's commands (for which I have written
to-day) and by which lam convinced I shall be directed to
restore those prizes as soon as your Highness by suspending
your armaments shall have removed the apprehensions
which have caused it. On the other hand, as it is the
first duty of States to provide for their own security, your
Highness will be sensible I should ill answer the confi-
dence of the empire, if I did not take all such measures as
are called for by the security of my squadron and the ho-
nour of the Imperial flag.

Admiral Heyden made ne
ad verbal communiEcation of the
above to Admiral de Rignv, who arrived here on the 25th.
and asked him to send his son (Admiral Heyden's) to
Alexandria, on board a French ship, a request which it
seems was not followed up. Admiral de Rigny sailed to-
day fur Toulon, on board the Conquerant.

Dutch Papers of the 3d May have been received,
but they contain no news of political interest.

The French Papers contain no particular news of
any novelty or importance.

The East Retford business was agitated last night
h the House of Commons. We have only space
to call attention to the speech of Mr. HUSKISSON on
the subject.

Our readers will perceive with deep regret, upon
reference to other columns, that some serious riots
have broken out in Manchester, on Monday last.
Several power-loom manufactories were furiously
attacked by the mob, the looms destroyed, and one
manufactory of large extent was set on fire and con-
'limed. So powerful was the heat that houses for
thirty yards round were in imminent danger of being
destroyed. Au idea of the conflagration may be
formed from the fact that the walls of the burning
manufactory had the appearance of a bar of iron—
being red hot all through
The civil power was insufficient to put down the
voters, and there was but a small portion of the
nlilitaly in the immediate neighbourhood, but there
earl be little doubt that a powerful reinforcement
would pour in from the surrounding districts in time
to prevent any further disturbance. The reason
assigned for these outrages is the employing men at
reduced wages.
