face boldly, and apply ourselves to some means for
averting the dangers to which every imam in the coun-
try ii exposed. It is impossible that principles ilzecipro-
sfly in trade, even if acted upon with good faith by
other countries., can be adhered tu, if prices are main-
tamed in this country at a rate which prevents the ma.
nufacturer from competing with tmeigners. or doing so
by paying his labourers'a rate of wages on which they
cannot subsist. Prices must therefore be lowered, and
this can only be effected 'by a reduction. of 'taxation.
which again can only be effected by some bold and de-
cisive measure respecting the National Debt. We do
not recommend g violation of the nationallaids. but we
contend, as we always have done, that the public me
ditot now receives Mae than he bargained for, and
that justice, as well as expediency, suggests that some
pleasing should be adopted which would throw wane

Commercial letters from Constantinople of tf e 47th,
and from Smyrna of the 20th ult. were received in
town yesterday ; and state, that the precautionary men•
sures pursued by that Government for the supply of,
.grain for the capital, have been the means of a vast
quantity being accumulated in the interior—to convey,
which, from the different depots to the capital, would,
it was thought, require the continued service of several
thousand camels for a period of tux months; besides
which, supplies drawn by small craft along the toasts
of the Black Sea, diminished entirely all the fears en-
teitsined by its inhabitants of a famine.
The Porte anxiously looked for the arrival of a new
Ambassador, as the best means of immediately
causing the settlement of the Greek question.

The Commander in Chief of the British squadron in
the Mediterranean was daily expected at Smyrna.
