The genevil conversation on the Exchange is a war between
the Russians and Turk,; and there is every appearance, from
the intehieence received from the Continent, that this isnportapt

particularly heavy, and nothing can be done in them.

Every account from Constantinople tends to con,
firm the last atrocious act of the Turkish Govern-
ment in the massacre of the Sciot hostages, and the
desolation of their country even to the massacre of
children. Letters from Constantinople, to the ?.9th of
May, detail the greatest korrot s, especially as to the
stir of slave.. The children of Scio under seven
years of age, whom no one will put chase, are drowned.
The subject was last night mentioned in the House of
Commons. Mr.W.Surrn said, that not ten or twelve
had been massacred, but eighty•five. He was in-
formed one who was in Constantinople when this
massacre took place, though he could not witness it,
that the Turks empalttd six persons alive, whose only
crime was that they were hostages. Sir JAUES MACK.'
INTOsti stated that the markets of Constantinople and
Smyrna were glutted with Greek ladies and children,
torn from their parents, their families, their hu • bands,
and their homes, in order to gratify the brutal desires
of Mahommedan voluptuaries. The Marquis of Los•
DONDERRY, from whom some information wa, sought
on the subject, did not contradict these statements;
bat said that the British Government and its agents
were not re ponsible for such .itroclties.

At a late hour this forenoon we received a German
Mail, with Papers to the 17th instant. The Austrian
Obseiver, a Journal distinguished for its hostility to
the came of the Greeks, in an article of great length,
written ith i Wonted bias, gives the following la-
mentable accounts of the late events at Constantii.orle

VIENNA, JUNE 16.

Accounts ftorn ConstantElop:e of the 25th May:

The day before the commencement of the llama-
zan (20:h May) were di,tinguiihed by bloodshed.—
Ten of the most considerable Sciots, who had hitherto
been in prison, and thrice that number of individuals,
accused of correspondence with the Insurgents, were
executed between the 16th and 13th. As many of
these men were connected with the richest families of
the Franks, their fate has excited considerable inte-
rest. The catastrophe of Scio, the most dreadful
event that has hitherto occurred in the history of,
the Grzek insurrection, owes its frightful character
to the circumstances that attended its origin:—
Neither the great personai influence of the Captain
l'acha, nor his unceasing exertions, could check the
torrent, which has burst its bounds. Except the 2.0
-tillages known by the name of Mastic, which were
saved by the activity and humanity of the European
Consuls, and in the limits of which nobody, not even
fugitives, were allowed to be touched, the whole
Wand, the city, and the country is changed into a
licyap of ruins : of its 100,000 inhabitants the half
arc destroyed or vanished, and the other half de-
prived of all the comforts of life for perhaps a whole.

generation.
It is very remarkable that all the horrors of the
present state of things, the desolation of Scio, and
e ICII the laze executions in the capital, make a far
weaker impression on the Greeks than on all the other
i:shabitants of these countries. They seem to regard
all this with indifference.
Who would believe, that almost in sight of the
smoking ruins of Scio, the standard of rebellion could
be hoisted in the Island of Mitylene; and yet a band
of furious Ipsariots has succeeded in opening in this
kland also an abyss, which, at the first approach of
a Turkish force will devour everything.
It is uncertain to what quarter the operations of
the great Turkish fleet will be directed ; it is ex-
pec►cd with trembling, now at Tine, now at SAMOS,
and now at Ipsara ; the Greeks place their last hope
on their ships, whether for resistance or flight. They
have above lea vessels, including a considerable
number of ti e-ships, with which they cruize often,
very near the Turkish &Q.
A second fleet is fitting out, in which the Janissa-
ries have offered to serve. When this fleet sails, there
will be only one ship of the line in The harbour.
We know little or nothing of the situation of the
l',lorea and neighbourii,g countries. It is certain, that
since the failure of the attack on Napoli de Romania,
Tirade some months ago, neither that fortress (which
is defended by 4.50 pieces of cannon, and well fur-
