—if she be allowed to nestle in her conquests but for
one winter—might be expended to dislodge her in vain.
By letters in town from Semlin, it appears that the army
of DIEBITSCII reached Kirk-kilissa at the latest by the
3d of August, which place is about the same distance
froM Constantinople as Bath is from London : it is the
meeting-point of the great high roads which lead, one
of them to Adrianople—the second city of the Empire—
another to the capital. At this period the consternation
throughout the SULTAN'S dominions had become uni-
versal, and his army is represented as beitig " wholly
dissolved." Di ZBITSCII is making a triumphal progress,
rather than a march through hostile provinces ; there iut
no organisation, no resistance. Adrianople was without
defence, and—what is worse—ready to receive him
with open arms ; and before Constantinople there was
only a fortified camp, capable of containing 20,000 men:
disaffection and disunion in both cities. Suck was the
position of things on the 3d of August, at Kirk-kilissa,
every circumstance combining to favour the victorious
General: he dispatched, accordingly, a division of ca-
valry and light artillery to take possession of Adrianople,
and marched with the main army direct upon the Byzantine
Capital. On the 13th, it is believed that its vanguard
were under the walls. In the mean time, the Noble Duke
and the Noble Earl are relying upon Count GUILLEMI-
NOT and Mr. ROBERT GORDON: veamos, Cara= !

The expedition sent by Don Ml° 17EL against Terceira
was more formidable than has been generally imagined :
it consisted of sixteen men-of-war, besides six trans-
ports, among which latter—proh ! pastor were seve-
ral English ! The havoc and destruction among this-
shipping, as well as the slaughter of the men,' was
much greater than we were first led to believe : indeed,
cut of the 3,500 men composing the expedition, it is not
thought that five hundred got off from the island
alive. Four instead of two gun-boats—as we said
on Saturday—fell into the hands of the QUEEN'S
party, carrying eighteen and twenty-four pounders, and
a complement of 150 men each. The Conde DE FICA':
110, whose father fell gallantly while leading his regi-
ment at the battle of Arapiles, distinguished himself
greatly in the engagement. This young nobleman—
who was leading a life of gaiety and amusement at
Paris—voluntary abandoned its fascinations as soon as
he heard of the landing of VILLA FLOR, and has-
tened to share the dangers and fate of his honoured
countryman. He joined the volunteers as a private
soldier, and led the attack with bayonet in
hand, which dislodged the Miguelites immediately after
they had formed on landing, from their position upon an
important eminence. The behaviour of the volunteers
is above all praise : in fact, they bore the brunt of the
battle. Colonel CALDAS, of the 21st Regiment, and
Brevet-Major SIAMENS, were among the killed on
the Queen's side. Colonel CALDAS was already greatly
distinguished in the Guerilla warfare in the Minho.

The following was the Order of the Day issued by
Count VILLA FLORA as soon as the Usurper's squadron
approached the island of Terceira :

" ORDER OF THE DAY.

" The appearance in the offing of a considerable num-
ber of vessels leaves no doubt that the adherents of the
rebellion meditate an attack on the town. The Com-

mander-in-Chief seizes the first moment to announce this
to his gallant comrades. The eyes of Europe and the
whole world are upon you, as well as those of our be-
loved Queen. Every thing is in our favour :—our cause
is sacred, our coasts are nearly every where inaccessible,
our defence free from difficulty—every thing rests on
your valour and discipline. Should the bands of the
Usurper presume to defile our island, they will have rea-
son to repent their temerity. Our country will applaud,
and we shall offer to our legitimate Sovereign the immor-
tal laurels of the purest and truest glory.

CITY. Twnvie o'CLocc.

Although it is a double post-day, we have but very few arrivals
this morning, and they are not of mach importance. The Consol
Market, which left off on Saturday at ittli 9 for the Account,
opened at 881 I, and may be quoted at present 88j buyers ; and
for Mooey alli f, with little doing as yet. The fall of the French
Renter is attributed to the private letters by the express from Paris
this morning, to the approaching settlement of the account there,
and not to any political information. In the Foreign Market not
a feature at present worth observation.

CITY, HALF-PAST ONE O'CLOCK.

The Coosol market bas improved since the early pan of the
morning, when they were 88a g for the Account ; but up to this
hour they are 89} to g, owing to a report that an armistke had
already taken place between the Russians and Turks.

The Foreign market is very inactive. with little or nothing doing

Accounts have been received by express from Con-
stantinople, bringing the important information of the
arrival there of the Prussian Ambassador Extraordinary,
General MUFFLIN, who was most graciously received
by the GRAND SULTAN; and after a conference of
some time with the SULTAN, he succeeded in proving to
him the great danger which threatened his person and
empire, at the same time soliciting of the SULTAN to
spare the further effusion of blood, by entering into a
negociation for peace with the Russians, which his High-
ness at length complied with ; in consequence of which,
when the accounts left Constantinople, some arrange-
ment, or an armistice, was expected shortly to take place.

Jamaica Papers have been received in town at the
South American Coffee House to the 12th July. They
do not contain any fresh accounts in regard to the Spanish
Expedition for the Coast of Mexico.
The Courant of the 9th July says, "We regret to ob-
serve that the George the Fourth arrived here yesterday
from Saint Thomas, in ballast."

Flour was scarce and high at the date of her sailing ;
but large importations were daily expected from the
United States ;
.the scarcity of flour in the island is un-
precedented ; and, unless a seasonable supply arrives, we
shall soon be without a barrel of flour. Small sales were
effected yesterday at 8 pound,
