DrCLARATION OT Till INGLIS!! AMBASSADOR, Mt. AIRUTII,
NOT, IN IRE COS/PLIZNCI AT CONSTANTINO.ILLTILIIIU

ARY
" The Sublime Porte, which has never ceafed to atanifeft
tiality for the French, has, more particularly lince the arrival of
the French Asuba &dor, General Sebaltiani, in this capital, changed
its principles and fyftem towardaits own allies.
" The raid Ambaffador, Come days after his arrival, having given
in a Note containing certain threats, the Sublime Porte ought to
have returned the Notc, and fent away the author; the Sublime
Porte, on the contrary, received the Note favourably, and fignified
to Ruffia, that her Mips of war would not be fuffered to pars the•
Canal of tbc Blatt sea.
" On the occafion of the eitablifhment of the liapodars of
Moldavia and Wallachia, which took place in confequence of pre-
ceding circumflanccs, the Porte ought immediately to have con-
Canted, but the delay of *Alt content, which was not given till three
weeks afterwards, when the Ruffian Ambaffador had formally de•
manded it, was a proof of the overbearing influence which the
French Court had acquired. The Ruffian and Engli(h Courts
therefore agreed that the former should fend land forces into the
Turkilh territory, and the latter a fleet to the capital of the Otto •
man Empire.
" Should the Porte proceed to renew its alliance with Ruffle
and England, on the antient footing, and difmifs the Paid French
Amballador from the Capital, the war will immediately eeafe; but
if this be not done, a breach of the friendthip with England will be
unavoidable.
" To carry this plan into execution, England will fend a well-
appointed fleet, bellies the fquadron now Rationed off the Mend
of Tenedos. The Ruffian fleet will join it in the fame Seas, in or-
der to pat. together the Strait of the Dardanellre.
" Should the Porte be inclined to give a negative anfwer to the
indent propofal, the Ambaffador will fend back to their country
all the Englifh Merchants in the Ottoman States, and remain
himfclf here to renew the fame propoCal, and enter into conferences
on the ((died, when the Paid combint d maritime force (ball have
formed a jundlion in the vicinity of this Capital"
No. IV.

" On board of the Endytnion, Jan. 29.
As the underfigned, the Ambaffador Exttairdinary and Pie-
nipotcntury from his Britannic Majefty, has received a refufal to
the requeft he made for a paffort to a Melfenger to his Majelly's
Government, and as this mistral has been repeated to-day, it is int-
pollible lot him any longer to think hintfelf in a country which is
willing to keep up ita friendly relations with his Majefty. It is alto,
for the very fame reafons, impolible for the underfigned, while be
remains in this place, to proceed with the negoelation now emu
mowed with that fecurity without which there can be no freedom
of difeuffion. He has, therefore, been compelled to adoilt the re•
folutioo of going on board of the Britifh fleet lying off the heights
of Tesedos, where be may enjoy that recut ity which has been de-
niedhim here. It will give him the greateft pleafure if the Porte
fhould tratilmit him an anfwer to the requilli ions which be made
at the conference of the asth inftant, and which were to the pur-
port of enabling hint again tc rerun* his port. The underfigned
will wait a certain time before energetic meafures are reforted to,'
iu order to obtain fatisfadtion for the injuries done to his Majetty
and his alifthe Emperor of Ruffia. The Porte muff perceive that
the anfwer can be eafily given without the Daft delay. To the
requifition of the underfigned a fimple Yes or No only Is neceffary.
The under figncd has confidered it his duty to take along with him
tM Britifh fuhiedli refident here. Their property, at well as the
property of the underfigned, and the effeets belonging to the Hotel
of his Britannic Majetty, are left behind. All this progeny has
been placed under the fafeguard of the Porte, and it is hereby de-
clared refponfible for the fame. While the underfigned affair,' the
Sublime Porte of his high confideration, he expreffes a molt anxious
with that the Porte will have thy wiftiom of placing his Majetty
sad his ally, the Emperor of Ruffle, in a fituation to produce a re-
Weal of their frieodfhip with the Porte. (Signed)
