SEMLIN, MARCII

Ccuriers have arrived this morning at Belgrade
from Constantinople ; the news Pram this last city
are of the aOth March; everything was in the greatest
fernie..t.aron, and an insurrection of the Janissaries
had excited still greater constei nation among the in-
habitants. The Sultan, in consequence of the p:e-
rarations for war, which are continued with the
greatest activity, had also ordered a press of sailors,
which was already carried into execution with great
rigour, and without respect of persons. Some Ortas
of the Janissaries, who had been ordered for the sea
service, have positively refused ; their threats and
vocifer.uions soon excited the fury of the other Ortas,
and tile) proceetteu to acts of violence towards their
Ofl s. The new Ag.t of the Janissaries, lately ap-
poin.e. oy the Sultan, was the first victim of their
rage. His predecessor, who was discharged on ac-
count or the disorders which took place on the arrival
of the Ilea.; or. Ali Paella, was immediately re-instated
in that in:portant post. The Janissaries, after having
murdered their Chief, dispersed about the streets of
Constantinople, and gave loose without restraint to
their hatred of the Christians, all they met in the
streets, of whatever nation, were massacred.

Constantinople is now as light at night as in the
day time, on account of the fires of the bivouacs,
which 61 the city and the environs. This great city
resembles a vast camp, and the hopes of making war
on tl e accursed Ghanos (the Russians), and of enriclt-
ing by pillage, excite in all the Mussel-
men extraordinary joy and enthusiasm. Their re-
ligious zeal, which nits been rather less vehement for
some years pas., has now resumed all its impetuosity,
and the people arc more fanatical than ever.
The accounts from Epirus and Albania are favour-
able to the (,irecks. Chourschid Pacha is so occupied
with the Suliots and Albanians that he has not yet
been able to think of executing the order of the Sul-
tan, or of proceeding with his army to the Morea.—
All the men able to bear aims in the Pachalick of
Joannina have received them, and endeavour by every
means to prevent the carrying away the treasures of
All Paella.

On the frontiers of Bosnia the Turks have had vie-
lent quarrels with the Chiefs of the Bosniac tribes,
and in the partial actions which have taken place, the
latter have always had the advantage. In Servia, on
the contrary, all is yet tranquil. Prince Milosch con-
ducts himself with great prudence, but it may be fore-
seen that this calm will not last long. When hostili-
ties break out between the Russians and the Turks,
there is little doubt that the Servians, who have been
so long oppressed, will again take up atms and en-
deavour to take advantage of this opportunity finally
to throw off the Ottoman yoke.
Accounts from Odessa, of the 6th March, say, that
vha:ever has the remotest connexion with the Turks,
or with the struggle which is about to commence,
excites the greatest interest in the Public. A com-
pany of amateurs has lately performed the Tragedy
of Philocteles, translated into modern Greek. The
Theatre could not contain the crowd that pressed for
admission : Madame Catalani the younger, who had
acted with general satisfaction in the part of Dijanira,
has since been daily engaged in private houses, to
sing patriotic Greek hymns and Russian national airs.
The subject of all these songs is the fall of the Otto
man Empire.

Letters from Vienna, of the 3d of April, say—" All
the accounts and all the private letters continue to
indicate war. The most strange catastrophes threaten
Turkey ; a kind of civil war has broken out in Bosnia,
Servia is in fermentation, and the inhabitants wait
only fur a favourable moment to throw ,:ff the yoke
of the Mussultinnis. In Albania and Eels us the con-
test has rc-connuenced with great fury; and lastly,

ing nature."
We have received a he of Caraccas Papers. They
ate important as far as refer* to the import, export,
and tonnage duties, as settled on the Main—likewise
the law respecting the naturalization of foreigners.
The following is an extract of a letter from Port
Spain:__" *Everything is going on well, and General
Santander (the Vice-President, charged with the Civil
Administration) has expressed his hopes of being able
to extinguish the foreign debt in four years."

It is said that dispatches were yesterday received,
by an extraordinary courier, from Vienna, dated the
4th instant, which state that " the negotiations be-
tween Russian and Turkey had recommenced, with
better prospects than ever of a pacific termination.
A letter is also said to have been received from Paris,
written on Saturday last, stating that similar intelli-
gence had been transmitted to Baron VINCENT, the
Austrian Ambassador in that Capital. This informa-
tion, however, is defective in one material point,
which is, whether Constantinople or Vienna is ;he
scene of the renewed negotiations. It is more probable
that the latter place is meant, as the term " negotia-
tions" will more justly apply to what is passing there
relative to the great question, than at Constantinople.

The KING is expected to arrive in town this even-
ing ; and on Friday, at two o'clock, his MAJESTY
