FROM OUR PRIVATE CORRESPODENCE.

VIIPINA, OCT. ty.—According to Letters from
the Turkith frontiers, the Turks are now making
great preparations to attack and vanquifh Pas SWAN
°Gem". Two arrnies are to aft againft him, one
in Wallachia, and the other in Servia. In confe-
quence of this the Auftrian Agent, at Buchareft,
has announced to the inhabitants of the Seven
Towns that the winter feeding of Cheep dnd cattle
in Wallachia, which is ufual there, would not be
poffible for this year, becaufe a confiderable
Turkifh army would occupy that country. PASS-
WAN OoLou fends every where emiffaries to pro-
pagate his principles, and try to make the people
dilratisfied with the prefent Turkith Government.
Many of them are now in Befnia, and fee their
wilbes accomplifhed, as this Province is on the
point of infurreftion.
Some time ago PAsswAN OGLou walled to ap.
prebend the Falba of Travenec, who is very par-
tial to the Porte. Passwam fcnt a corps againft
him, but the Pafha, who was early informed of
Passwan's intention, had put binaftlf in filch an
excellent pofture of defence, and received PASS-
wAs's troops in fuch a manner, that they were
obliged direftly to return. Since this the itlter-
courfe by meffengers between the Patha and Con-
Ilantinople is very great.
It is related that the Turkifh army in Egypt,
after its return, is to be employed againft Pass-
watt, and that a corps of the Englifb army is
to 'Join it, and the whole expedition to be direited
by Englifb Officers.
On occafion of the name day of the Em rat's,
the itth inR. feveral entertainments were given at
Laxemburg: one was very new and highly intereft-
ing. This was a tournament held by four young
Noblemen of,khe firft families. Every one thought
himfelf carried back to the dark times of chivalry,
fo truly was every thing belonging to it obferved.
The young tarn wore real armour and lances of
that age, and fought with the greateft ability.—
Their holies were likewifc caparifoned in mail,
which had been teen at many Tournaments :co
years ago.
