The intelligence received of late from Turkey,
through the medium of the Continental journals, has
worn rather a suspicious appeartitice, so far as the
continuance of friendly dispositions towards this Cfßltt-
try was concerned. As we have been long accus-
torned to view almost every article of foreign intelli-
gence as being of French manufacture, we were un:
willing to believe that the Porte had determined on
any participation in the Napoleon commercial system,
we regret to find, however, by letters from Malt a
that measures have been adoptel by the Turkish
government, which ought to call for a prompt and
decided interference on the part of this country. The
following is one of the communications alluded to :
. a LA VALETI'A, AP.3111. 1.
11 Last November a mercantile house here shipped
a considerable quantity of goods on board a Maltese
vessel, with an Austrian Supercargo bound for Du.
razzo. The goods were to he forwarded through
Albania and Basnia into the Austrian provinces. On
the arrival of the vessel, J. LEARD, Esq. the British
Consul, applied to the Captain P.tcha for permishion
to land and forward the goods on paying the usual'
duties. This was granted ; but when the Austrian
Supercargo was on the point of setting out, the goods I
were sequestrated, and the Supercargo put in prison. I
Mr. Leann was also arrested and confined. A Sew I
days afterwards, a party of Janissaries came to de- ;
mand, within '2l hours, 8300 sequins, as an indemni-
fication for expences incurred-in the Vice Admiralty
Court of Malta by claiming some Albanian vessels
detained by Maltese privateers. Mr. Las an was
finally obliged to deliver to the Paella's officers, a
quantity of merchandize estimated by themselves at
aC7OOO, but which was much under the value of the
goods, and was also forced to give a certificate that
he bad voluntarily consigned the goods to the Paella.
Another demand was then made for 4600 sequins on
Mr. Lamm, the British Vice Consul, who was sent
to prison, and threatened with being put in irons, if
the money was not paid in six days. In the interval
the Belle Pottle, Captain BRISBANE, appeared off the
port, and demanded the British property and subjects.
'Otis demand was, however, disregarded, and the
' Consul and Vice Consul, were forced to make another
consignment, and sign certificates that they had vo-
luntarily sold and delivered the goods.P
