We have received, by Express, the Gazette de France,
dated Tuesday, Oct. 7, and the other Journals of the
6th of October. The only news which they contain
is in a letter from Constantinople of the 18th of Sept.
which says 44 The .Tarks are still in the intoxication of
victory, but great alarm had been excited by the landing
'of the Russians near Bourgas. On receiving this
news, the GRAND Viziza stopped at Adrianople.—
He appears to intend, in concert with Huasstu PACHA,
to attempt to relieve Varna. The measures for the
defence of the capital are actively prosecuted.—
On the 7th September 15,000 Kendish cavalry landed
at the Dardanelles, and at the environs of Constantino.
ple took the road to Schuusla; but the taxes in the ca-
pital continue to increase, and business is at a stand.
Great care is taken, however, to provide for the wants
of the people. The Caimacan has lately made a gene-
ral inspection of bakers' shops; on this occasion twenty
bakers were nailed by the ears to their own doors.
During this cruel operation several of them smoked
their pipes with the greatest indifference."
The accounts from Odessa of the absolute prohibi-
tion of exporting corn have made a very painful im-
pression at Constantinople, and the consequences may
be fatal.

• Lisboa Gazettes to the 27th ult. inclusive arrived. last
night, but they contain no intelligence of the slightest
importance. They are filled with notifications of mili-
tary appointMents, lists of voluntary contributions, and

We concur in the truth of the remarks of se A Wsta.•
WISMIER TO THE NAVY.* inserted in our Paper of Tues-
day. It is unfortunately not to be denied, that a spirit
of dissatisfaction does exist very generally among the
old Officers is our Service, at the slow rate of promotion,
and at the inadequacy of their pay to the respectability
of their rank, and the length of their 'standing. We are
by ao means disposed ,to draw invidious comparisons,
or to make remarks tending to excite jealousy between
Naval and Military Officers; but it unfortunately is the
ease. that the share of honour and profit. that has Falks
to the lot of these two branches of the Service, has been
very disproportionate. The arduous contest in which we
were engaged—that shed so much glory on Our troops by
the series of brilliant victories achieved by their bravery
—has naturally pushed on military promotions, and
given an eclat to the British Army. But our Navy has
also had her triumphs; nor can the proud days-of the
Nile and Trafalgar, nor the immortal name of Num)),
be ever effaced from the memory of Englishmen.—
And yet there are veterans, who have shared the glory
dour great naval hero, remaining at this day as it were
in oblivion, with a column of names above their own in
the list, that seems to present an insuperable obstacle to,
their ever reaching the rank to which their merit: have,
long ago entitled them.Tbe hardships and dangers of the

seaesceed beyond measu re those of land service, and there

is on the navy as a profesbion for their sons. Far from
there being any such encouraging prospect at present,
*tithing is more common thaa to hear our old Officers
say, "N.) son of mine shall ever go to sea." This is
'really not as it ought to be; and we sincerely trust that
Lord Meurtu.s, who, from long experience, must know
how these things are, will seriously take some steps to
inspirit the gagging hopes of our Naval (Mom A
liberal promotion on the occasion of his Lordship's no.
turn to the Admiralty would contribute to his popu-
larity, and be au act at this moment highly politic. We
should grieve to see the hopes that bad been raised
upon the zeal of the late Loan HIGH Aautaaa for the
prosperity of the service disappointed, by a delay of
that encouragement which, the sooner it is given, will
be certain to produce the greater good.

Serious difficulties bad arisen in drawing up the treaty for the

On the news that the Pacba of Uscuh had assembled a corps of
111,000 irrrgwlar troops in Slacedouia, for the purpose of making a
diversion in Servii along the river Morava, in conceit with the
Government of Neua, Prince Miluch immediately left his resi-
dence at Posarewaes, and proceeded at the head of his household
troops to Alezinese, to collect reinforcements and march to the
frontiers, while another Servian corps was distributed in the mous-
, tains to secure Prince Moloch in his rear, and to oppose any attempt
that might be made by the Turkish troops. This prompt resolution
of Prince Miloch is said t, have made the Pacha of Uscuh desist
from his plan of entering Servia. Prince Mooch, on the other
hand, is said to have kept bis troops together, and to have taken up
a position betweenAlexinese and Kruscbewaes, from which be can
easily move in any direction, as well towards Borne as towards the

A fine new steam vessel, the Scotia, was launched
on Friday from the building yard of Mesas. Steel and
Co. Greenock. The day fine, and the concourse of
spectators very great. The Scotia went off in fine style.
She is a strong, staunch built, beautiful vessel, of about
SOO tons.

Tuesday lac as Mr. Appleyard, of Hull, was crossing
the Humber in a boat, accompanied by a man of the
name of Sutton, a sudden squall threw the vessel on its
beam ends. It filled with water and instantly sunk,
but bah masts were fortunately dislodged and floated.
Sutton and Appleyard got each hold of a mast, but
Sutton was soon exhausted, and was drowned. Apple
yard, notwithstanding there was a great swell, was able
to support himself in the water for three hours, and was'
at last picked up by a sloop 'passing ; the sloop put
back and landed him at Hull. The body of Sutton was
picked up, but life had been long extinct.—liall Gazette.
