market has been very dull, notwithstanding the approach
of settling day. The price of Stocks has experiearel
a decline, which is attributed to the fail in the Engliin

Funds, and the uncertainty of the decision of the Cham•

According to letters from Augsburg, of the 21st May,
at the moment of the departure of the Ottoman fleet,
under the command of the Captain Pacha, some light
Greek vessels were descried, which immediately set sai►,
to carry the intelligence to Ipsara, as the Greeks had
adopted measures to collect a considerable fleet. It is
supposed that a naval action would take place beore
the Turkish vessels would be able to land.
A letter from Trieste, of the 15th inst. states
Ibrahim Bey, who had rebelled against the Viceroy of
Egypt, and made himself master of the citadel of Cairo,
has a secret firman, appointing him to the Viceroyalty,
which was delivered by the Envoy of the Porte. This
firman promotes him to the rank of Generalissimo of
the Ottoman forces.
The following is intelligence from St. Petersburgh, of
the Bth inst.—" Towards the end of the month there
will be a grand Military Fete in the Camp de Mars, at

which not only the corps of the Guards, but all the

troops in our environs will be present."
EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM CONSTANTINOPLE, DATED
25TH APRIL.

The Ottoman Ministers being desirous to prove to the
Greeks that the wishes of the Powers of Europe are fa-
vourable to the Porte, proposed to the European Con-
suls to freight vessels to transport the troops of Egpyt
and Natolia, which are destined to be landed in the
Morea. The Consuls urged their neutrality, but the.
Porte insisted: the Greek Senate had already addiesse,!,
through the medium of the Senate of Ipsara, energetic
representations to the Consuls residing at Smyrna, com•
plairaing of the secret succour which was afforded to
the Turks, and declaring they could not spare any flag
which was abused for the purpose of furnishing arms,
ammunition, and prosisions to their enemies.
MADRID, MAY 17.

The Gazette of the 15th contains two cirtulars of the
Minister of Finance, one dated May 7, places the corps
of armed revenue officers, under the command of the
Intendant of the Provinces of Madrid ; the other, dated
May 12, gives a further delay of 90 days, for the pie-
sentation of demands upon the State.
Faiscii MENUS, May 20, 104 f.

The Hampshire Chronicle, of Saturday, grounds a
hope that the defeat of our troops at Accra may prove
unfounded, on the circumstance that the VICTOR, sloop
of war, had arrived from Sierra Leone, which place she
left on tk 13th of February, "at which time not the
slightest of the transaction h question had
reached that place, and they were daily exrecting the
arrival of Sir C. M`CARTITY from Cape Coast Castle."
Nothing can be more absuid than this supposition,
and had the Editor either consulted a map of Africa, or
known anything of the navigatii:n of the coast, he
would have found that it was impossib:e e
of tire defeat of our troops could have reached S.Ct I
Leone by the 13th of February. The battle is s.‘iu to
have taken place on the 21st of January, and the pas-
sage from Accra to Sierra Leone is or dimuily six mei.L.:
or two months ; besides, accounts were rec:iverl
month ago, from Sierra Leone, of the 12. h of :\ lac ;1,,
whicir were as silent as those of February on the stir) •
ject, and yet there is unfortunately no hope to be
of its not being true from that circumstance.

We have been favoured with the perusal of letter.

i: was ascertained that these had been given him by his
rnaster, to shoot deer. From the east coast the alarm
was more serious. A negro had been brought in, be-
longing to Resouvinir Estate, where Smith, the Mis-
sionary, lived, and which slave had been concerned in
the late revolt. He was secured by the well-disposed
negroes upon a neighbouring estate, while in the act of
making an attempt to induce them to rise on Easter
Afoneay, and emancipate themselves, which, he said,
they could now more readily effect than formerly.—

in some degree subsided, upon its being a,certained
that he was intoxicated a-lien he made the declaration.
Drunk people, however, sometimes let out important

manent duty, and were expected to rernain so, till Ge-
ilei:{! D'UnnaN arrived. Strong instructions had come

to issue a Proclamation, ‘‘ arising the negroes of the

rta down every attempt at rebellion, in the most sum-
nwy manner. This had in some measure quieted the
Ininds of the white inhabitants, hut still the minds of
the negroes were by no means in a settled state. They
look upon the removal of Governor Al uRIIAY, as convey-,

cf his conduct.—Glasgow Courier.
