coNSTAN I'INOPLE, JULY 41.—(Prom a Letter.)
The plague which penetrated'into the hotel of the
RCSS'an Embassy, at Borukdure, has carried off ten
re:sons—it has now ceased. Count Halmsky him,
self WAS not infected. After a quarantine, which he
has imposed upon himself, he will repair to his new
post at Rome.
The Porte has recalled its present Charge d'Affairs
fro., cans, and sends in his room a Greek, named
)14r,0t. It is said that a new considerably increased
tax is to be laid on. the Christian inhabitants in the
whole Ottoman Empire. The present tax is eleven
piastre* per head.

The dissolution of the French Chambir of Depu-
tieshas given great offence to the Ultra Royalists—
even in London I They tell us that 66 in other words
the Russian interest has prevailed t" Very alarming
to be sure; but if the measure be in fact the preva,-
fence of the principles of the Constitutional Chatter,
which were violated by the structure of the Chamber,
in having a greater number of Members, and these
snore juvenile, than the Charter recognizes, may not
the chsnge be truly hailed as the prevalence of the
Austrian interest, the Prussian interest, the British in-
terest, the Royal interest, as well as of the Russian ?
had not all an equal interest in guarding the Con-
stitution—in averting every thing that in practice or
is effect might threaten a violation, and consequently
popular disaffection on that account. Has Russia
taken any active part in recommending the measure
that has been adopted ? If so, we can only say that
that Power has been as honest as the Cabinet of Lon-
don, ind.as deserving of praise. Has any one forgot
t!:; e• z,iractur hich pervaded the letter of Lord Wet.-
;.:..Arros to the KING of Fuanoz ? The pus( at
..ution shews that his MAJESTY was not insensible
to the purity of the motives which induced all or any
of the Allies to remonstrate against the measures of
the Ultra-Royalists—against measures calculated to
alarm the proprietors of lands—measures subversive
of the Constitution—which all sober-minded men,
every friend to the reigning Family, had so much
interest in maintaining.—‘a Prevalence of a Russian
interest!!" Nonsense. It is the prevalence of equity,
sound p•lcy, anu justice, over bigotry, superstition,
and intolerance.--Let us add, that the individual re.
spectabitity W character which attaches to the newly-
appointed heads of the Electoral Colleges, it perhaps
the surest pledge of the spirit by which their Sove-
nip is guided being of the most wholesurne and
prudent description. It is true that almost all of
those individu..ls h:tve figured in the Revolution ;
but, on appealing to the historical records of that
eventful period, we find nothing even in the chronicles
of their political opponents which tarnishes their moral
character.

CAXILLE JORDAN, for instance, whose name ap-
pears at the head of the List, has been a martyr to
the cause of moderation. In 1707 be was appointed I
Deputy from the Rhone to the Council of Five
Hundred. On the 4th of July in that year, he made
a most eloquent defence for the City of Lyons, which
bad teen virtually consigned to a general massacre,
by the Jacobin taction as a receptacle of Royalists,
assassins, and banditti.
In the course of the same month, he presented his
celebrated Report on Religious Toleration, in which
he deman.fed liberty of canscience for all religious
persuasions, and in particular the use of bells for all
places of worship, indiscriminately, to summon the
attendance of their frequenters. Neit day he sp:.ke
with great intrepidity and warmth against the Dit ec-
tory cur marching those very troops towards Paris,
who afterwards, according to his prediction, over-
th:ew all vestiges of civil liberty. He was condemned
to be transported to Cayenne, %%Lir PICIIECUU, De Wm-
en; and the rest of the moderate party ; but escap-
ed on the route, and contrived to. publish a spirited
Protest against this stretch of authority on the part
of the executive Power. He was recalled to France
in February, 1800, by BONAPARTE ; but he was
placed under the eyes of the Police at Grenoble.—
In 1805 he published a most spirited and eloquent
production against the assumption by BONAPARTE of
the Consulate for life, and from that period remained
unnoticed until 1814, when Lours XVIII. called
him to his Councils, and gave h m letters of nobility.
Among M. JORDAN'S brother Presidents on the pre-
sent occasion, we notice several other Members of the
Council of Five Hundred, who were equally distin-
guished for their good sense and moderation, and
whose biographies are equally free from the imputa-
tion of moral infamy.

His Royal Highness the PRINCE REGENT arrived
at Ragley on Monday last. He appears perfectly
recovered from bis late indisposition, and enjoys the
pleasures of tle country exceedingly. It is expected
that his Roy:►l 'Highness will honour the Marquis of
is,ot.esitis with a visit at his seat at Beaudesert. The
PRINCE will be absent from town about a month.
His Royal Highness the Duke of CLARENCeS
health is so completely restored as to enable him to
enjoy the society of his friends. Yesterday herper-
took of a family dinner with Mr. and Mrs. Coon's,
in Stratton•street. The small party to meet his Royal
Highness consisted of the Earl and Countess of Bess%
oacmcm, Loid ERSKENZ, Lady GUILFORD, the La-
dies NORTH, and Sir RICHARD 2111 d Lady STRACIIRN.
The laying of the Foundation Stone of the Royal
Cobourg Theatre, announced to take place to-morrow,
is postponed until Saturday next. The dinner on the
occasion is of course postponed to the same day.
