CONSTANTINOPLE, FIIIIVAZT U.

The Jews have received orders to change their dress
in the space of four weeks, for the Turkish costume,
Which they are henceforth to wear, with the exception
of the turban. Comordai and Jocit, the two Jew
bankers of the Court, are excused from obeying this
order,The Catholics are still pellecuted ; the Bede.
siastics have been transported to the Archipelago, with
the exception of eve, who have been allowed to remain
*little longer in Pere and Galata. The bosses of the
exiles are sold by auction, but at low prices, because
only Mombasa may bay them, and no rich Mahn
swum live in Pen or Galata.

We learn from Bucharest. that, notwitlutaoding the
prohibition to the Turks to pass the Danube, well
armed detachments visit the environs of Bucharest,
and urge the delivery of the requisitions ordered.
Hati-Elfendi, who conducted the negociations at

Akermann, has been appointed Intendant of the Polfet.'
in the room of Husney Bey. There ate numberless
conjectures on the object of this change, which is sup-
posed to be connected with some political designs. It
is certain that the persons about the Sultan fear war ;
that be alone does not feel any apprehension; but that
he, however, possesses sufficient penetration to avoid
any thing that might lead to a rupture; and that he
will endeavour to maintain peace, if the Ulemas do not
impel him to some extremity.
The Padea of Nicomedia, in a report to the Sultan
on the banishment of the Armenians, describes the
misery of these unhappy exiles in the following terms :
" I have been unable to bear the sight of the misery
of the exiled infidels. Forsaken by their brethren, they
were devoted to inevitable death, if by the grace of the
Prophet, which guided my hand, they had not been
supplied with bread, &c. The snow, which is very deep
in the mountains in those countries, and which at the
least thaw causes inundations in the plains, has been
the death of a great number. The Pacha of Nieomedia
was himself the witness of the death of 200 children,
and 19 pregnant women."
Only yesterday, sixty individuals belonging to the
richest and most esteemed families were sent to Scutari,
to be conveyed to Angora. Among them are the four
(brothers Manacer, who were bankers to the Court, and
Ithe chief partners of the great house of Eilo Ogelo
Angelo. All their property is confiscated. One of the
brothers Manacer, professor of the Turkish language,
who was highly esteemed by the Turks, had interested
several great men in his favour, yet the order for his
proscription was executed with the utmost rigour.
The Ulemas are much dissatisfied with this persecu-
tion ; most of them are debtors to the Armenians, and
as the Government has taken possession of the securities
held by the latter, and exercises their rights, it has al.'
ready caused the houses of several of the Ulemas to be
seized as security for the payment. On the 20th, the
Armenian Patriarch again called together the Catholics
who are still here, and again proposed to them to join
II
his sect, but they all refused, preferring to be the vic-
tims of their fidelity to their belief.

According to the Bulletins published to day, the
the health of their Majesties continues to improve.

A Leeward Island Mail has arrived this morning, left
St. Thomas's 22d Feb. by which letters have been re-
ceived from Laguira and Porte Cabello of the 13th
Feb. stating that the whole of the band of CDIIiA ROI
bad been destroyed, or taken with their arms and am-
munition. CISMAROS had escaped; but there was no
doubt that he would fall into the hands of the Colom-
bians. LABORD, with his squadron, had appeared off
Porto Cabello, but did not attempt any thing, except
landing a few men at a small village to obtain water
for his ships, and set sail again.

Extract of a letter from Tampico, received at the
North and South American Coffee-house, dated Jan. 24
go We are relieved of much anxiety by the safe at.
rival of the Conducts from San Louis. which has just
come in with about 250,000 dollars. Apprehensions
were entertained by many that the Conducts would be
in danger from the Ilth Regiment of the Line, now in
this neighbourhood, and said to be in opposition to the
Government. It is composed of about twelve hundred
men, partisans of General Bravo; their movements
appear to be against this place, and they were at Orca-
citas twenty-four hours since. The Commander of the
troops at the Bar has held a Council of War, which re-
commends defensive measures; also that the inhabitants,
either native or foreign, to remove their property down
to the Bar. The Collector of this port has just received
instructions from the Executive Government, requiring
him to obtain from the merchants an exact account,
under oath, of the goods in their possession, with a view
of exacting the immediate payment of the interior duty
on them. This, if forced, will cause much distress ; but
the merchants, one and all, Lave refused to give in a
list of their goods."
