• 'DEATH OF THE DOWAGER•QUEEN•OF'
WIRTEMBERG.

• 0

We are sorry to itate, that accounts' haee been re-
ceived at the Foreign Office last night, of the death
of her Majesty the Dowager Queen of Wurramsenc.
This melancholy event took place atStutgardt on Mon-
d7 lasi.' Her MAJtsTY Was the eldest Wort of his
Majesty Gwoacut the Fourth, King of England; was
born Sept. 29,1766, aid married to FausamAra.u.tar,
Duke of Wirteasherg, May 18, 1791, since which time
she has•principally resided•on the •Continent.

1+ Among tho-wirations considerations. to which the
BlOcladrof. thibardanellet 'may give rise, one of not
the leastimportatiie is, in what Eght.the measure will
Ire viewed by the Porte? Now of course, *blockade
by *hostile Power of the ports of a nation with which
it is in war, would have no effect out of the ordinary
train of events, further than with
.reference:to the neu-
tral Governments who may have recognised that
blockade. ,Great Britain and France being at peace
with the Porte, any abettal by them. of so aggressive
an experiment on the part of Russia, may naturally be
viewed at Constantinople as an act of hostility upowsbc
Ottoman dominions. Then, the EMPSIIOft having
pledged himself by Treaty to waive Jhis belligerent,'
rights by sea-d.and having, in defiance 'of his pledgel
appiti*l in jtsi Dardaaellm in the drunter of anava.
belligerent-4 apt the submission of England and.
Prance to .what they have both the right and the
power to prevent, a policy dictated by unfriendly

motives towards their mutual:ally, the Subligne.Porte ?
Such might well be the • tone of argument in the
Divan, irritated as it is by the French expedition,, in
addition to other misfortunes--and we confess the res.
coning is not without its force. A treaty is made to
compel TutkeS to consent to the liberatiOn and pacifi-
cation of Greece ; while the objects of the treaty are
gradually. though slowly, being carried into 'effect,
another European Power takes the field, and slakes war
upon Turkey (for Abe vircornstance of Rip:Sites-being a
party • makes no. sat of difference)., with whops two
of pitt parties to the treaty are at peace. The fund&
mental rules upon 'which, the European batance of power
depends, prithihit .tfite drib:action 01 Mickey, and her'
onnsolidatioo with. Russia.. But to'this end the blockade
has a visible and most material tendency, inasmuch as
prevents the o;teman capital from being supplied With'
ammunition and the. necessary means of defenCe. Set!
ting aside, therefore, the guarantee given to England
and,Feance,At may really be questionable, whether the
safetria well as the honour of the EurOpeatt Confede-
racy. may not beinvolved in a try great degree by
this bold and dating condect of the Russian EUPZILOR:
Last night we received the'Paris Papen. of Friday,

The7mainiody of the army bad already arrived at
0444* an.the IStb, and was expected to fall back
without delay on Issaktcbi.
Awartielis from Badmen of the 19th nit. states that
the Vachon of &Wait made another vigorous sortie
on tfie- lath against the corps of General Iroxu..which
was routed end almost completely destroyed. On this
occasion the Turks took thirty pieces of cannon; the

terro► of the remaining Imperialists was so great on the
attack of the Spahis (Turkish cavalry) that they did not
r4lll again till they go to Hirchova.
It does not appear that Varna has yet fallen; and it

hammed in thiseraccounts that its fall would be of

little use to the Russians, as the .only advantage they
would derive from it would be to mike their retreat
with mom safety to the Danube.

Oa the 11th of this Meath Mr. Francis Wary, Consul of his
Britannic .Majesty at lisaysna, called: a meeting of the English
merchants at his Mose, and commuoleried to than a letter from
Lord Aberdnerh-tho Minister for Foreign Affairs, relative to the
`refusal of the factory, balmember last, to place itself under forrian
protection, and to ihe,asenbities then adopted'hy the majority of
the members who cairn ith.to remain constituted as a awye ek

The .Minister, alterhisake reproached the Cos ol fee wafering
this question to be pillypgkhr a meeting sip which. I. 0440.

Lordship's displeasua et dliiir not having followed theArritreetime

Majesty it the eve' of Ms dayarturei for Tragland, *bids ire* ea
piece themselves under the pritsieliera of die Consul-General of his
Majesty the King of the Netherlands. He acknowledges that for
the individuals the choice of protection is optional ; hot he denies
to the factory the right to cohatitrite itself in the absence of every
English authority. and to the *etc emanating from the Camas's-
gaolers appointed for the purpose, the character of legality, which.
is indispensable to them., •
.Lord Aberdeen's letter comes rather late, and the Ministry has
considered a long time before it resolved to blame the Eaglish
merchants at Smyrna, which seems to indicate that there was some
hesitation with respect to the manner In which the conduct d the
factory was to be considered. The opinion which has prevailed in
the Council, and • the spirit which dictated this letter, may give
room for reflections which are not without importance

Twenty years ago, an English Minister, whether Whig or Miry,
wmildhave found only a subject of praise in a measure resuldag
Bum a certain national pride; which the Government at Mgt time
endpavoured to mite in the hearts of prividrindiv idualsond to carry
it to the highest pitch.—Merchants, who, far from their coantry jp
left to themselves, ash protection only in the quality of subjects of
Great Britain, and foam their. security on that Moral influence
which that title should never lose, are guided by this noble idea,
that the power of indivkluab is the standard. of the power of nations.
