VIENNA. MAY it.

Letters worthy of credit say, that the negnciations
between the Servian Chiefs and the Pacha of Belgrade
are broken off, and the entrance of Turkish troops
into Servia will be looked upon by the Servians as
the signal for war.

TRIESTE, MAY 7.
Salonichi being a place of great importance, the
occupation of which v. ould be of the greatest advan-
tage to the Greeks, they have lately sent an expedi-
don from Hydra with troops on board. These troops
are to be landed near Cape Karabournon, to the I
South of Salonichi, to approach the City on that side.
We have not yet received any news telative to this
landing. Merchants letters say, that the whole island
of Negropont is now in possession of the Greeks, and
that the little neighbouring islands depending on
Negropont have likewise declared in their favour.
BRUSSELS, MAY 13.
Vice-Admiral Van Braam died on the 17th, at
Delft, at the age of 64. His funeral took place on
the 20th, with all military honours.
Many of the Members who spoke in the memo-
rable debate on the 14th and 15th inst. upon the per-
sonal tax, have sent their discourses to the Editors of
the Join nals for insertion. In that of Duval de Beau-
lieu, Deputy of Hainault, who, like almost all the
Belgic Deputies, spoke against the law, we find it
stated, that the-. Committee which has been long
sitting to deliberate on the petitions of the agricul-
turists, is believed to have at length adopted the mea-
sures so loudly called for, of a 'maximum and mini-
mum for the importation and exportation of grain.

In another part of our Paper we have quoted some
extracts from the Dublin Journals, which give a la-
mentable picture of the distress which prevails in
Ireland. Thanks, however, to British benevolence,
which never shone more brightly than at this moment,
relief is rapidly extendin& to every place where it is
required. The City of London Committee are inde-
fatigable in their exertions. On Saturday they char-
tered twelve vessels to carry potatoes to Limerick,
Cork, and other ports convenient to the scene of dis-
tress ; and so great h the activity exercised in com-
pleting the order, men were employed from an early
hour yesterday in loading the vessels—thus following
the precept of Ho who teaches us to do good on the
Sabbath day.
From every part of the country we hear of Sub-
scriptions formed or forming. Liverpool has already
raised upwards of £2700 ; Oxford City and Univer-
sity have subscribed more than £lOOO, the City of
York £7OO, and Brighton upwards of £500; and at
Weymouth a Meeting has been held, and a subscrip-
tion commenced very auspiciously.

An article in the French Papers says--41 The Prin-
cess ELIZABETH, Landgrave of Hesse-Hombourg,
and sister to the KING Of GREAT BRITAIN, has re-
ceived • intelligence from London, which formally
contradicts the rumours of his BRITANNIC MAJESTY'S
visit to the Continent, the state of health of the KENO
not permitting such a voyage."
Saturday arrived at Blackwell from India, in the
ship Linoch, his Highness Prince Names Mesa
Straw MIAs, son of the King of DRLIII. His High-
ness, with twe of the principal Ladies of his Harem,
immediately proceeded to the Plough Tavern, where
he remains until his arrival is known, and can be pro-
perly acknowledged by Government. Every Attempt
during the voyage and since his arrival by gentle-
men to see the ladies has been abortive.
It is said that the tax-collectors in Mary-la-bonne
Parish have received notice of no less than SOO car-
riages being laid down.
The weather continues remarkably fine, and we
have the most cheering accounts from every district
of the two kingdoms, of the state of every species.of
vegetation.

OSTEND, MAY 19.
His Excellency the Governor of the Province wis
present to-day at the first trial of the new sluice lately
erected at the mouth of our harbour, for the purpose
of clearing away the sand that impedes the entrance.
The result perfectly answered the expectation formed
of it, and there is no doubt that, by the repeated ope-
rations of the sluice, the entrance of the harbour will
be deepened so as to admit not only the largest mer-
chantmen but even ships Of intr. The whole popu-.
latioo of the aity Booked so.sos the affects of this
great work.
