BUCHAREST, JUNE HI.

Since the arrival of the Tartar who brought the letters of the loth
and 12th of June from Constantinople, for Germany, the report
of the speedy evacuation of our Principalities has bees revived. We
are quite impatient for the accomplishment of this deliverance from
the Turks, which has been so repeatedly held out to us. The fear
of tke plague, which has broken out at Rimnick, has induced many
of our Boyars to withdraw. The family of Mr. Hagenaner, the
Austrian Consul, has likewise retired.
WERTHEIM, JULY 2.

To the great regret of everybody, we have lost the Princegs Er.
nestine Louisa Frederica Caroline of I.oweeistein-Wertheim-Frrn.
denburg, who died on the 26th of June, in the 40th year of her age,
entirely exhausted by a sickness of eighteen months.

Monday's French Papers, with the Etoile of Tues.
day, have reached us. They contain intelligence
from Constantinople to the lath of June, which state
that Count G [MLLES' I NOT, the new French Ambassadors
had been received with all the honours due to the Ite.
presentative of a friendly Monarch. From the silence
observed by the Government with respect to the opera.
tions of the Turkish armament, it was inferred, and no
doubt with justice, that if some defeat had not been
sustained, at least nothing of importance had been
' achieved. Indeed, private reports continued to state
that DERVISH PAGHA had lost 10,000 min at the
of Theruropylie, and that all his artillery had falle❑ into
the hands of the Greeks.

These Papers also publish letters from Madrid to the
beginning of the present month. The KING is said to
have reiterated the expression of his determination
never to recognize the independence of any of his former
possessions in America. It is added, that he had con-
cluded a new Loan for 50 millions of francs with a
Dutch House; and that 1() millions were to be appro•
priated to the fitting out of an armament against South
America !

We have received Sierra Leone Gazettes from the 24th
of April to the 15th of May inclusive. They all appear
with .the typographic badge of woe, a black margin,
but add nothing to our information relative to the events
at Ashantee. In another part of our Paper we have in-
serted a General Order and some civil promotions, ariting
out of the death of Sir CHARLES MgCARTHY and his
associates. The Acting Governor, the lion. DANIEL
AIOLLOY HAMILTON, was taking the most active mea-
sures for the defence of the different settlements and
forts; and on the 15th of May issued a Proclamation,
permitting the importation of horses, cattle, and pro.
visions duty free, until the Ist of November next.
These Papers contain warm testimonials to the ami-
able character of the late Governor, and express the
utmost confidence in the measures of his successor,
whose " long residence on the coast and successful ex-
ertions for the public good, have peculiarly fitted him
for that office ; while the innate goodness of his hear:
and unwearied performance of all the social duties have
justly endeared him to every class of the inhabitants:,
The following extract is from the Sierra Leone Gazette
of the Ist of May :

" Fan:Towle, MAY I, 824.
" On Wednesday his Majesty's ship Donau, Captain Boweu,
with lieutenant-Colonel Sutherland and 40 men of the 2cl West
India Regiment, left this port for the Gold Coast, the Civil Go-
vernment of which will be assumed by the Lieutenant-Colonel hu-
mediately on his arrival, by virtue of a Commission from his Honour
the Acting Governor.

" We look with melancholy anxiety for an arrival from Cape
Coast, in order to learn some more particulars relating to the late
agonizing catastrophe at Assamacow, u well as to know what
measures have been used to bring the Ashantee barbarians to account.
—We much fear, from the loss the service has sustained by the
death of the gallant Sir Charles M'Cartby and his brave followers,
and the alarming state of illness of Major Chisholm when the last
accounts left, that there is little chance of this being effected. We
have no doubt, however, that Colonel Sutherland, and the selected
few brave men who accompanied him, may Inspire fresh confi-
dence into our dispirited allies ; although a Regiment or two from
Europe will, we are afraid, be required, to permanently establish
our ascendancy over those tyrannic and blood-thirty barbarisms
who have extended their power by the demoniac crimes of rapine
and murder.

" While labouring under the severe dispensations of Nos-
pima with which we have been afflicted, it affords us great con-
solation to observe the peace and prosperity which this portion of
the Colony at present enjoys."
