Silistria surrendered by capitulation on the 18th (30th) of June.
The garrison, consisting of 8,000 men as well as the 10.000 armed
inhabitants, are prisoners of war. Tye Grand Vizier is closely in-
vested in Schumla by the corps of General Count Diebitsch.

ODESSA, Jun g 7.
An official notice has been published here to do away with the
the bad impression caused by false reports respecting a contagious
disorder said to prevail here. The Magistrates state that in fact a
contagious disorder had prevailed in the quarantine, bat that mea-
sures were immediately adopted to prevent its spreading, and It is
confined to the few persons who had to do with infected goods.
In the town itself there is no such disorder, and even the common
diseases are now rare. Bessarabia is very healthy. A second sans.
tart' cordon has lately been established upon the Dniester, to
strengthen that on the Pruth and the Damsbe.—Prscssiass Stale Ga-

CONSTANTINOPLE, Juan 20.

ST CUSISS.
•
The Ambassadors of England and France have arrived here, and
have been received with the greatest enthusiasm. The throng of
the people, who usually take little interest in public matters, was
extremely great. The Porte sent Deputies to the two Ambassadors.
to compliment them in their hotels; soon after the Dragoman of
the Porte waited upon them to present to them a message from the
Reis Effendi. Preparations are already making for the solemn
audience to be given to the two Ambassadors, which will begin in a
few days, and then the negotiations will begin on account of which
they have come hither. Count Gulllenainot has already renewed his
acquaintance with the foreign Ministers resident here. Mr. Gordon
has hitherto seen only Baron Ottenfels. Von Zayden and
Canitz. The latter,will leave Constantinople in a few days. Since
the 15th of this month, great activity has been observed in the army
of the Sultan. Disagreeable news has been received here from
the army (particularly of a battle on the 11th instant), which the
Porte endeavours by every means to hinder from spreading. Mean-
time, the foreign ambassadors have received intimations, which
aunounce nothing good. It is said the Grand Vizier will come here
to give the Sultan an accurate account of the state of things.
The Russians. it is said, have gained a considerable victory be-
fore Schumla, and to have compelled the Grand Vizier to retreat
to that place. It is certain that at this moment no Turkish
troops keep the field against the enemy ; and that in Karnabat,
to the south of the Balkan, fugitives have been seen, who
spread terror among the inhabitants. Some persons believe that
this unfortunate event and the presence of the Ambassadors
may lead to peace, but others believe that the war is now going to
begin seriously ; that the Sultan will take the field with the standard
of the Prophet, and, as he has vowed to do, lead the whole nation
against the enemy. The activity that is Nerved in the Sultan's
camp almost leads us to fear the latter resolution ; 7,000 men, com-
manded by the Seraskier Pacha, set out to-day for the army in
the field. _ _ _ _ _

United Mexican
Protector Fire

It is rumoured that the young Duke of BADEN'S
visit to this country is connected with a project of
placing his Highness at the head of a constitutional
monarch• in Greece. As the father of this Prince was
among the first to give his subjects a representative sys-
tem, and he is said to inherit the virtues of his parent in a
high degree, perhaps the choke has been judiciously made.
If the jtalousy of a neighbouring Cabinet were not
likely to intervene, a member of the House of ORANGE
might have been selected. The example given to all the
other Princes of Europe by that family, entitle it to the
admiration and confidence of the whole European
community.

As regards the destinies of Greece, there is reason to
believe, that Ministers have at length determined to adopt
a policy towards that country, more coarnaut with Bri-
tish interests. Though delayed much too long, this is a
gratifying fact, and we wait with anxiety for the deve-
lopment of those measures of prudence and conciliation
on which they are said to have determined in a re-
* tat Council. •
•

Among the officors whose gallantry in the battle ofl
Tarqui excited the attention'of General SUCRE, Colonels

O'LEARY, WRIGHT, and Baowx, are mentioned with
such a meed of praise, as will doubtless deeply interest
their friends on this side the Atlantic.

We certainly do feel astonished, that the Press of
London has been able to afford so completely to neglect
the important intelligence contained in the last Colombian
Gazettes, translations from which appeared in THE STAR
of Friday and Saturday last : and we are curious to know
how much longer—iu the words of an eloquent contem-
porary—they propose to inflict upon us the " ban of their
non-intercourse." In speaking of journals,we have always
carefully abstained from directing our remarks to persons
—and we shall continue to do so : but we cannot envy, nor
admire the feelings of those conductors of journals, whose
petty passions can induce them to band together to send a
contemporary " to Coventry," because he dares to arraign
the degeneracy of the Press it general. We cordially
pity the spite, and laugh at the impotency : they cannot
retard our ascendent. As far as some among them have
honourable objects in common with us, we could have been
glad to co-operate, and the cause of political purity would
have been advantaged by such alliance. It will come at
last, and when it arrives, we shall be able to smile and for-
give. The Examiner of yesterday, in a masterly article on
representative reform, has embodied much curious
stricture on the ivant of principle in the soi-disant
liberal portion of the Press. But we beg to correct
the Examiner, in his classification of Lord BLAND..
roe n among the Tories. We can assure that sturdy
regenerator that the Noble Marquis is animated by prin-
ciples as pure as his, and that he is connected with
no party whatever. If, indeed, Universal Suffrage
and Vote by Ballot are to be ingredients in the
new measure sine quibus non here both Lord
BLAN neva D and Ourselves must make a stand :
but for a thorough abolition of borough venalities,
and the correction in detail of much practical abuse at
elections ; for the introduction, in fact, of all devisable
reforms which do not antagonise with the spirit of the
Constitution—we will go heart and hand with the
Examiner.

We invite the attention of Government to a letter ad-
dressed to the Committee of Limy n's, and signed M ER-
CATOR. It is connected with that ill-advised transaction
off Terceira, which called forth—just at the close of the
Session—that burst of indignation in the Upper House,
which the Noble Premier cannot have yet forgotten. It
is a part and parcel of those crying national wrongs and
insults, which we have been patiently enduring since the
usurpation of the crown of Portugal: and although the
precise injury here complained of was inflicted by British
hands upon unoffending British subjects, still it is not
less clear that the real origin of the oppressive catastrophe
is to be found in the system of partiality which Ministers
have adopted towards Don MIGUEL—but which, how-
ever, by a strange perversion of tetras, Lord ABERDEEN
calls neutrality. We strongly coincide with MERCATOR,
that Captain WA LPOLE ought to be instantly recalled,
and the public mind satisfied on this irritating subject.
But we are almost sick of so much unprofitable and un-
availing remonstrance, feeling as we do, that it is ad-

dressed to ears deafer than the rocks of Icarus. Perhaps,
however, the Noble Earl may soon pause in his mistaken
career—we are fond to say mistaken, because else it
must be called iniquitous—and awake to the real danger
of a perseverance in the present policy. In the mean
time, we call upon him for RE D R Ess.—generally—for all
our outraged countrymen : we call upon him to exact re-
paration from the tyrant in their names : if he have not
independence enough to dare to demand it in his own,—
at least to require it of him in the name of ENGLAND.

The Court Journal states that within the last tow days
an Agent from Don MIGUEL has arrived in Paris, and
has had several interviews with tho Minister for Foreign
Affairs, who is said to be very favourable to the views of
Mtc t; EL, and therefore anxious to bring about his recog-
*ition as King of Portugal. We suspect this paragraph
to emanate pretty nearly from the same quarter as its
worthy predecessor in the Times, which we took an op-
portunity to expose last Friday. It is very humiliating
to see the press of this country prostituted to such a cause.
The Times, until very lately, was an acknowledged and
high authority for sentiments and sympathies which do
honour to freemen ; but now,the tocsin of acquiescence and
servility is sounded by IT, throughout a disgusted and
unresponding empire. Search its columns for the last six
months, and they will be found full to saturation .with
panegyrics on a military ministry, and defences of the
most insolent and unprovoked foreign aggressions, to
which in the annals of our history we ever yet submitted.
It is not out of place to notice here an on dit concerning
ministers : namely, the projected deportation of the
young Queen to Brazil, in company with her father's im-
perial bride, the Princess de LEVCIITENISERCI, who is
expected. presently in England.

We are in possession of some curious and important
facts, relative to the manoeuvres of Government against
the interests of the young Stranger, whose sovereignty
they have acknowledged, and we shall develope them at a
fit season. In the mean time, the difficulties which the
Regency appointed by Don PEDRO encounter at every
step, contrast eloquently with the altered tone of the
Times, and other ministerial journals, when speaking of
Don Mtuur.t.

The Spaniel%ls threaten to invade Mexico, or if not the
Mexican, the Guatimahut territory. If the armament
should proceed from the Havannah, from that moment the
States of South America will no longer respect the wishes
of those Governments which have hitherto protected Cuba
and Puerto Rico. We shall then see another St. Domingo
in those Islands ; but no reproach can attach to South
America. She will have forborne the exercise of her
belligerent rights till self-preservation permitted no further
forbearance. The responsibility, and it is a fearful one,
of the calamities which must follow, will sot attach to her,

but to the Governments who would restrain Spain from
provocations that rendered such reprisals indispensable.
We can affirm that the writer of the letter from which
the following is an extract, is a person of the highest con-
sideration :
" Carsten, April 16, ISIS.

" Mr. RAVENGA has been here some days, and has
brought with him a special authority to regulate all trans-
actions and affairs which concern the public credit, and
which mad• augment the revenue. He works with dili-
gence, and we promise ourselves► a good result ; but it is
necessary to bear in mind that our credit will depend much
on the progress we may make is our political concerns.—
The determination unequivocally expressed of our Govern-
ment for the discharge of our obligations with the foreigner,
encourages us, for we know an old proverb which says,
He who wishes to do a thing, will do it better (whatever
means he may have) than he who having the means at
command, does not wish to doit.'"

A great sensation was created this morning in the city
on receipt of a letter at the North and South American
Coffee House from Portsmouth, and posted on the board.
The letter was to the following effect:—
_ _

" Portsmouth. July 19.

" We beg to inform you that orders have been received here late
this day for the immediate equipment of ten an.! ofMe Now Mr. G.
(meaning Mr. GAsaAt) is gone out to endeavour if possible, to
obtain some clue as to destination." In a P.S. it was said : " Mr.
G. has not yet returned ; but Captain S. informs us that troops will
embark in the above.
(Signed) " L THOMAS,
" For Garret and Gibbons."

GA RItAT and Ginnows being the agents of LLOYD'S,
and other letters being in town from these gentlemen,
which are silent on the subject, the letter of Mr.Tuom as,
by 12 o'clock, was pronounced a hoax.—ln the mean-
time it answered the stock jobbing purpose for which it
was got up, by affecting the Money Market, as will be
seen in our City Intelligence.

We hare German Papers this day ; but their contents
have been anticipated by the important news received late
last night of the capitulation of Silistria. From private
sources we learn that this event is looked upon as a
mortal blow to the hopes of the Turks,—for it gives to
the Russians the entire command of the Danube. It also
enables General DIZBITSCII to add 30,000 men to the
Grand Russian army ,which will forthwith invest Schumla,
and proceed on the main road to Adrianople, for the

double purpose of cutting off all communication with
Schumla, and striking terror into the heart of Constan-
tinople,—which, if the long-spoken of negotiations for
peace are not speedily terminated, must inevitably fall.

FRONTIERS OF MOLDAVIA. Jams 29.

According to accounts from Little Wallachia the Pack of
Widdin, after the occupation of Racbova by the corps of General
Geismar. undertook a great reconnoimasee towards that place. In
which he fell in with a division of Russian cavalry. The Russians
feU back to their position at Busboys (or Orekawa), and the Turks
did not attempt any thing further. It is Manned that if the Turkish
garrison had done its duty, and the Governor bad shown a little
more resolution in is defence. General Geismar would hardly
have succeeded in obtaining a Gan footing on the right bank of the
Danube, u the Pacha of Necopolis was on the point of coming to
the relief of Rachoya. Several ships bden with ears, coming from
Belgrade. have been set ere to by the Russians with Congreve
rockets.

BUCHAREST, Jura 23.
Within these five days the sickness has increased in as alarming
manner, in consequence of the hot weather. We are threatened
with a total desertion of the city, as all the richer inhabitants are
withdrawing towards Transylvania. The alarm daily becomes
greater. It is reported that Russia will establish another sanitary
cordon on the Pro*.

Is now ordered to join the army of Gen. Paskewitsch. The mea-
sures taken for preventing the spreading of the contagion have a
little quieted the apprehensions of the public, but every thing con.
spires to ruin our commerce, and render our prospects gloomy. It
is said that diseases also prevail in Varna.—iflgewleine Zeutuig.

result of the stuck made 3d June by the Austrian squadron, the
object of which wu to destroy two corvettes belonging to the
Emperor of Morocco. The attempt wu successful—the fort of
Laroche being takes. and the corvettes burned. As the Emperor
of Morocco does net yet seem inclined to peace, it is said that
44-gua frigate will be sent from Venice, to reinforce the Austrian
squadron. Owing to the swell of the sea, the troops landed bad
much difficulty in reaching their boats. The loss of the Austrians

It is confidently expected, from the favourable recep-
tion which the French and English Ambassadors received,on their
arrival at Con , the aegociations will soon take place to
' re-establish peace In tthhee East.
Letters from Paris of the 16th inst. state, that a horrid
event took place on the 'Change there that day. M. itscommasunt,
a traveler to several mercantile houses, blew out his brains upon
the open 'Change. He was much esteemed, and the father of a
fine family. The sad event was caused by extreme distress.
For several days past, at Paris, there has been great
agitation in the saloons of the Faubourg Saint Germain—owing, it
is said, to the framing of an Address about to be presented to the
King, to caution his Majesty on the danger which surrounds his
throne.

OLIN, JULY 14.—Sunday last, the Duke de Chartres
and his suite, consisting of General Budrand, his akle.de•camp,
and Monsieur de Boismilon, his secretary, arrived here, where his
Royal Highness remained during the day. Early on Monday
morning, his Royal Highness embarked on board the Benloinsod
steam packet, Captain Turner, for lons, &afls, and the Spar Cave
in Skye, which places be minutely inspected during that day. His
Royal Highness expressed himself highly gratified with his visit to
these interesting islands, which arc well known to exhibit so meth
of the sublime and enchanting scenery of Scotland. Several gentle.
men who happened to be visiting Oban accompanied the Uuke in
his tour, with whom his Royal Highness entered into conversation
in the most pleaskig and affable manner. We have this account
from a gentians= who was present, and who states that he would
recommend this tour to all who never went that route. On the
occasion in question, the Beniorsoad reached Tobermory. about
in o'clock on Monday evening, where his Raid Highness slept,
attar having traversed towards of 160 miles. The llogdomoo4 left
Tobermory as six o'clock next morning (Tuesday) for Oban, and
arrived about it o'clock, whence he departed for Inverness, per
the same steam packet,—Glasgsw.Ontrier.
