Seeing. that, for somelt time pAst, it has been found
difficult to execute the laws and ordinances of the
empire, all things have departed from their ancient
sphere ; and the It tjahs*, among others, have indulged
in practices, utterly oppos-d to their condition as Ra-
jahs. In consequence it is the supreme will of his High-
ness that all things should be restored to their respective,
'limits, and that a Prefect of Police, chosen from among
the Capidji Bechi, should be appointed, to whom that,
task may be committed. Every opinion being in unison
with regard to this measure, it has been adopted; and
in the ordinance which has been issued on the subject,'
and which is clothed with the author it y claw autograph
order of his Highness, it is strictly forbidden !oeyers
R.ijah to carry iu ruture large kalpaks, to be clothed in
cloth or stuff of the colour or cut that is assigned to
Mussulmen, and they are forbidden to wear any thivit
bet bet.tich and djii6a (long dresses,.which merely differ
from each otherits the length of the sleeves) of darroW
black cloth, of the cut at all times: assigned for the
R ; they must not be seen abroad otherwise clothed ;
their Patriarch will give them speedy information on
this head; and if they are found tragsgressing by the
Prefect of Police, aler the publication of this ordinance,
they will be immediately seized and punished.
It is known that certain of the Rajahs, foolish men,
in divers plies, and on the canal, allow themselves to
transgress the limits assigned them by their condition
of Rajahs, that their daughters appear in public in the
Bosphorus, in Eta, at Ketlikaha, and other places,
dressed like Franks. The P: efect of Police is ordered
and enjoined to punish any Rajah 'whom he shall:in
future meet, dressed in a way that is not allowed; and
the care of this is not committed to him atone, for we
ourselves will see to it ; and if we shall hear of any con-
travention of these our orders, we shall reserve to our-
selves the power of inflicting other punishments. For
these ends, Boulouruldi shall be sent to the Armenian
Patriarch, and to the Jewish Khaliambachi, and thou
too—thou shalt see that it be well understood of such of
the Greek nation as need requites, that henceforth every
one must clothe himself after the ancient mode; and
that-every-part of their conduct, and all their actions,
must be regulated conformable to their miserable con-
dition of Rajah, and that none do depart from the same;
and whoever contratenes these presents, shall be pu-
nished without mercy.

PARIS, Novntess 24.
The Austrian Observer confirms what we have an-
nounced, that the Grand Seignor, on the Roth of Oct.
ratified the additional convention concluded at Aker-
mann on the 6th, and that a courier set out the same
day from Constantinople; to carry the ratificatloc to
Akermann.

The Gazette of Augsburg says, that Daoud Aga, the
Persian Agent at Constantinople, wished to make a
visit to M. de Minziacky, and had asked for a passport
to proceed to Russia. It is thought probable, that the
receipt of the bulletins of the Russian army has led to
these conciliatory steps.. M. de Minziacky refused both
the interview and the passport.
• /Wok, probably from the Hebrew Raca, is a strong term of
contempt for a Great.

The last Gibraltar packet. the Marchioness of Salis.
bury (captain ROICRTI, acting commander), landed at
Falmouth firemen, whom she had with great difficulty,
providentially delivered from a situation of extreme
danger, in the Bay of Biscay, on the morning of the
20th ult. The men, who were Portuguese, had, by the
violence of the winds, been driven out to sea, in a coast-
ing vessel of twenty-two tons burden, and remained for
six days. When picked up by the Marchioness of Salis;
bury, they were scudding under bare poles in a heavy
sea, in which it was impossible their bark could long
have survived ; and had been several days without
water or provisions.. Oa the previous night they hailed
a Dutch galliot for assistance, without success. Captain
Roman humanely took them on board his vessel, and
treated them with the utmost kindness. They had some
bags of specie and a small cargo of figs. The boat was
abandoned to its fate, but the specie was preserved,
although the Captain, in the endeavour to catch one of
the bags which had dropped from his hold, fell over-
board, and was nearly killed by the concussion of the
two vessels. Not the leAst satisfactory part of the trans-
action will be the restoration of the men to their friends
in Portugal, who Must, no doubt, have regarded their
loss as certain.

Advices from St. Helena state the Governor to be
very popular there, in consequence of his exertions to
improve the state of the island. He had established an
Agricultural, Society, and in order to encourage the
farmers, caused fairs to be held semi-annually, at which
prizes were awarded for the best cattle, barley, oats,
and vegetables. He had also established a market out-
side the gates, where the shipping are supplied with
meat and fruit without going to the tows. The market
was under the superintendence of a clerk, whose duty
it was to see strangers not imposed on, the prices of
the articles being regulated by bins. The tonnage duty
had been taken off, and a ship may now, stop at the
island, and take in ten tons of water at Si. 641. sterling,
and 4s. 6d. for a water certificate:

Accbunts from Carthagena of the 26th September
inform us, that a messenger from Brut VAR had arrived
there on the 24th, and proceeded for Lasoiyra and
Puerto Cabello. His object was said to be that of call-
ing a meeting of the population of every town, and if
the majority wished a Convention held before 1830, to
take into consideration a change of Government, the
President intended to accede to their wishes. An at-
tempt at insurrection is stated to have taken place at
Quito, a few days prior to the departure of the messen-
ger. One of the regiments stationed there, lormed of
enfranchised slaves, mutinied, and proceeded to the
public square, crying Long live King FerJinand I"
&c. They were put down, after being tired upon, by
which about 120 were killed, and se►eral were executed
afterwards. Bolivar is represented as having pledged
himself to be at Bogota on the 12th of Octobei.
