The Portuguese Government has appointed Field

idea of forming in that territory a division of the

We have received the Algemeine Zeilung of the 25th
of October, which contains the following interetting
article on the subject of the late negotiations at ,
Constantinople :
ODESSA, OCTOBER 6.
By advice: from Constantinople, dated September
29, it appears chat the Porte, up to the last moment
of Lord Strangford's departure, maintained a very
ostentatious demeanour, and had entered upon no dis-
cussion which augured any coacessism en its part.-r-
Those proceedings, which have several times been re-
garded in Europe as foreboding a disposition to yield
on the part of the Porte, must have been intended
merely as a mockery on the Christians, as the
haughty character of the Sultan renders concession
almost impossible.
On the 27th of July, the Reis Effendi addressed a
Note to the Ministers of France and Prussia, in which
mention was made of the appointment of theHospo-.
dars, and the new administration of the Principalities;
but the differences with Russia were not noticed.—
Since the departure of Lord Strangford, who was re-
garded as the chief diplomatist here, the European
Envoys in Pere have entirely withdrawn themselves,
and maintain no connexion with the Reis Effendi.—
It would appear, that being deprived of their leader,
they wish to avoid all diplomatic concerns, and to
await the issue of the Congress. But this may be
easily guessed: nne Power which is represented by
so many and such able statesmen has nothing to fear.
It would appear, however, that there are still some
persons in Constantinople who consider it to be the
domestic and national policy of Russia to entertain
designs unfavourable to the Turks ; and therefore those
individuals keep a watchful eye on the North. It
must, indeed, be acknowledged that under the pre-
sent aspect of affairs, this fear or hope seems scarcely
,hypothetical.
Those who, at a distance, think differently on this
subject, need only for a time approach the theatre of
the present discussions, and by acquiring a more in-1
timate knowledge of the reigning system, they will
be induced to alter their opinion: The sending away
of the Greek fugitives at the inclement season of the'
year, will, perhaps, open their eyes. At the late con-
ferences Lord Strangford exerted every endeavour to
prevail on the Reis Effendi at least to empower him
to become a mediator at the Congress, but without
effect. The Porte, with assurances of the greatest
respect for his Lordship, declined the proffered me-
diation, and addressed to him, a few days before his
departure, an official Note, which he carried to the
Congress. The contents of this Note, in which Lord
Strangford's mediation is formally declined, are
known to the Diplomatitts at Constantinople ; but it
'was given to Lord Strangford only for his use at the
Congress, and not to be communicated by him.

At a late hour this forenoon we received the Con-
stitutionnel (Paris Journal) of Thursday, by express.
The following are extracts:

ODESSA, OCTOBER 6.

Since the departure of Lord &rangford, who was
regarded the chief of the foreign diplomatic charac-
ters at Constantinople, all the European Ambassadors
have retired to Pera, and have suspended all com-
munication with the Reis Effendi; and it appears
they wish to avoid all diplomatic conferences, and
wait the result of the Congress.
