, THE FUND&
STOCK EXCHANGE, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

This being Settling-day at the Stock Exchange, there is a great
deal of business doing. The Market opened at 781 for the Ac-
count, when the Jews sent in their Agent, who bought upwards
of half a million, upon an express they received from Paris.
Another party also received an express, and sold largely. Cow
Sots are, up to this hour, 78 for Money, and 781 for the May
Account. The different fluctuations during this Account are from
781 to 81*, down again to 771, which is a rise and fall if
nearly six per cent. Information has been received this mum Ing
from Odessa, of the 15th March : it states the Excbmge WM
mending, and the Russian Officers Were enjoying themsebroi
there. The army remained in the same position as before.

The following important information has been re-
ceived by a respectable merchant in the city this
morning, in a letter, dated Constantinople, March 15:
It states, that the population are to be immediately
armed, that an order for a levy en masse has been
issued, and the foreign Ministers have been officially
adve:tised of the rejection of the Russian ultimatum.
In consequence of which the greatest consternation
prevails in the Turkish capital.

At a laze hour this forenoon we received a Flanders
and a Dutch Mail, bringing Papers of a late date.
An article from the frontiers of Moldavia, and of the
14th March, states, that on the evening of the 9th of
that nwnth a fire broke out at Jassy, which destroyed
5.90 houses. • The Janissaries have been accused of
causing the confl tgration ; they attacked Ole other
troops (Tilemes) with great fury : the Tilemes de-
fended themselves from the houses, by which 100 of
the inhabitants were killed. The Janissaries are said
to have lot 190 killed, and SO wounded.
&mac Germans who have arrived from Jassy can-
not find terms to describe the misery that reigns in
Moldavia. The land is nowhere tilled ; all the user-
chandize, especially clothes, have been seized by the
Turks. In the streets, which are never remarkably
clean, dead horses, half putrified, lie about, and only
a few half-naked gypsies are to be seen. Were not
the peasants in Moldavia and Wallachia already ac-
customed to live under the severest oppression, they
certainly would not endure the tyranny of the Tusks,
but as there is little difference between the treatment
they experienced from the Bojars and their agents and
that they receive fronithe Tusks, and the peasants are
so simple that they have no notion of their melancholy
situation, but approach every superior, consequently
. the Turks, with the most abject humility ; they find
all this quite natural. As well the peasants as the
gypsies have been partly relieved by the Turks from
the burden of bringing up their children, almost every
Janissary having appropriated to himself some boys
and girls, and sent them to his own home. At this
time there are hardly ten thousand Russian troops
in Bessarabia.

It is stated in the Haerlenz Courantya the 9th inst.
- ..that, on the 2d, two couriers arrived successively from
St; Petersburgh at Berlin, which has caused great
bustle in the Ministerial departments : it was re-
ported that, the first had brought the news of the
rejection of the ultimatum by the Turks, and the second
the declaration issued in consequence by the Bus-

sian Cabinet.

This forenoon we received a Spanish Mail. bringing
Madrid Papers to the 29th ult. The following are
extracts.

AIADRID, MARCH 27.

There have been some disturbances, or rather at-
tempts to create disturbance at Lorea, on the 19th,
where some persons who were singing patriotic songs
in honour of the Anniversary of the Constitution,
were insulted by others singing the Tragola.

Accounts from Aranjuez, of the 25th, say there
bad been a slight disturbance in the Theatre the day
before, on a dispute whether patriotic songs should
be sung or not. Order was, however, not materially
interrupted.
Accounts from Barcelona speak of new manceuvres
of the tactious, of which, however, the Authorities
were fully aware.
