tnuhl, Peer of France, by an ordonnance dated the 2.5 d of August.
From the Constitutionnel.
MINISTERIAL BROILS.

England had deemed it au easier matter to enter the French Mi-
nistry than the Dardanelles, but she decline► now what she was so
desirous of. She wanted M. de Polignite, it Is true, but she was
in hopes be would have formed a coalition Ministry, which might
be recruited from every shade of political creeds in the Chamber.
However inapt and poor the Administration of my Lord Duke (of
Wellington) may be, it is well aware that the support of a man
who estranges a whole nation, and who, by the colleagues, he sur-
rounded himself with, has awakened the ancient hatred of France
against her rival, is no great acquisition.
It is said M..de Polignac hesitates, Rambles, and desires nothing
more anxiously than to throw some of his ballast overboard, and
that he has some inclination of ridding himself of M. de la Hour-
donnaye, the Bistabeard of the faction ; and of M. de Boutmoat,
whose fault he innocently confesses to have forgotten; of M. de
Montbel, who is only the profile of M. de Villele ; and that he
would even sacrifice M. de Chabrol, who was nought but the mole
of the whole intrigue, and whom he would again condemn to
Work under ground, which he knows so well to hollow.
The Prefect of the Soothes du Rhone had issued a decree against
the Ex-Capuchins established in this Department, which had been
approved by the late Minister of the Home Department, but could
not be carried into effect. Now, however, the Capuchins beard
the authorities, who according to the Messager de .Marseilles, have
given way to beggars and vagabonds, most of whom are foreigners,
and have, perhaps, been compelled to expatriate themselves, and
to bide their persons under the Monk's frog and cowl. Whatever
Prefect may have signed an order against Capuchins must expect
to be dismissed for not having seasonably rememberedthat thought
of an Ultra-Mountainous individual—that Jesuits are needful to the
upper classes, and Capuchins to the canaille or rabble.
A private letter from Touloit states--" The inhabitants of Ja-
nina and Zaghori had to endure the fury of the Turks. These bar.
barians pillaged, tortured, and assassluated all such as did not succeed
in making their escape. Many unhappy families are seen Eying from
rock to rock, from cavern to cavern ; and in the mountains they
are likely to perish with hunger. These misfortunes would not
have happened if the English bad not stopped the Greek armies
in the pursuit of their enemies. Had it not been for the Eng-
lish, the Greeks of the Epirus would now enjoy their liberty
as well as their brethren in the Morea. What human mind
would have imagined that, at the very moment of the emancipa-
tion of the Epirus, the English Navy, which treats the Greeks as
if war had been declared between Corfu and Janina, would have
opposed its liberation, and wished its inhabitants to remain under
the Turkish scimitar? Will other nations suffer the massacre of
the inhabitants to be completed? Will the French suffer their seal
diers to remain in the Morea, the idle spectators of such a distress-
ing scene? Will they allow the consummation of massacres or•
dered at Constantinople, and sanctioned at Corfu, Ste. ?

HAMBURGH PAPERS.

ST. PETERSDURGH, Avousr 26.

His Majesty has received from the Commander-in-
Chief of the Second Army, the following report on the
operations of that army to the 13th of August :
" Your Majesty will be pleased to perceive from my report of
the 18th (50th July), that on the 16th (28th) Karnabat was occu-
pied by the 7th Infantry corps. At the same time I ordered Count
l'ahlen's 24 corps to occupy Karabunar, to push its Vanguard for-
ward to Faki, and to send out reconnoitring parties on the roads to
Tirnovo, Kirk-kilissa, and Adrianople. Aleanwhik not to lose sight
of the enemy retreating from Karnabar, NlajorGen.Sheremitiff was
on the 18th detached on a strong reconnoissance with the 2d brigade
of the 4th division of I I oleos, 4 cannon of the horse artillery, and 100
Cossacks, towards Jandsol. As the General was approaching.
Karnabat on the 19th, he fell in with a corps of 15,000 men, under
the command of kalif Dacha. A warm action ensued, in which
the undaunted Hulans, dist egarding the great force of the enemy,
and powerfully supported by the skilfully directed fire of the
artillery, gave a new proof of the superiority of our cavalry over
the Turkish. fur the charges of the enemy were not only every
where repulsed, but he was driven from the field of battle into
the town, and the whole of his camp delivered up to the flames.
Towards evening, Major-General Sheremetiff left 100 Cossacks
before Jambol, and approached the 7th corps, stationed near Kars
nabat, where he himself arrived on the 20th. Halil Paella, alarmed
by this bold manoeuvre of our detachment, and supposing that be
would on the following day be attacked by the whole of our force,
retreated in the greatest haste during the night, between the 19th
and the 20th (51st July and Ist August), with part of his force to-
watds Adrianople and part towards Shen° (Selimno), leaving hi
Jambol a considerable quantity of munitions of war, and 7.9,000
puds of biscuit. On the 21st (August 2) Major-General Sheri.
metiff occupied Jambol.
" With a view to a closer communication with Lieutenant-
General Krassowski, as well as to confine the enemy as much as
possible near Shunda, I gave orders for the occupation of
the defiles of Chelikawak and Chenge, which were still in the
power of the Turks. The detachments of Major-Generals
Rugowski and Sawadski, which were formed out of the regi-
ments of their brigades, under the command of Major-General
Nabel. were employed on this service, and were marched—
the former by the way of Dobrol, the latter by the way of
Chenge—towards Chelikawak. At the same time Liemenant-
General Krassowskl was directed to undertake a general move-
ment front the side of Marasch against Shumla. and in that
way to bring himself into closer communication with me. All
the dispositions I had thus made were, on the 2.5 th of July (Aug.
6), crowned with the happiest result. The Turks were every
where driven out of their almost impassable defiles. and their in-
trenclunents demolished, by which means we obtained the intended
communication with Lieutenant-General Krassowski, who, on the
26th (August 7) reported, that, in pursuance of the order he re-
ceived from me, he had on the. 26th (August 6) approached
and had sent five battalions of idantry, the hussar. re-
gitnents of the Prince of Orange, and the ninth Orenburg'. with
the aillikry belonging to them, under the command of Major..
General Prince Gort.chakow, thief of the general apfk,towards
• EskA-.Stamboul, and hardier on ; that the Grand Viiierind thereby
• been.pbUged to advance against him with a c.onskierible force,
which be immediately attacked, and drove between 'the fortresses
of Matsfhin and Trull, in such a situation that the Vizier was only
'enabled to fall back upon Shumla with a sniall part of his troops,
espessi to the grape-shot of our artillery, while the remainder,
