The tenth day after the first of April haring elapsed,

I NM: KR ECM*: OF THE (;REEVE.-Br accounts front
Illamburgh we learn that the Insurgents in Wal.elpia
are commanded by two chiefs, named '1 lico.l(tr,
Studzier and DetnetrinsMudekou•ki. They e:ttioneneed
their operations on the :10th of January, with A band
of only 40 men, by seising on the monastery of 'Pis'
mann. Their force was swelled, by the middle of
February, to 5,000 men. They were in possession of
the fortress of ('zernitz, and were by the last accounts,
marching upon Bucharest. Of a body of 1,000 men
sent against them by the Tnrkish Government, one
half are said to have joined them, and the rest to ' ave
dispersed. 1 ntel.igence of the insurrection hail reach-
ed Warsaw, and been communicated by the papers
there. A letter received from the Agent to
Lloyd's, at Genoa, dated the 2d instant, states, that
by accounts from a Merchant at Odessa the utmost
lenthusiasm had appeared among the dreek inhabit-
ants of that place, in consequence of the revolt that
' bad broke out in Walachia and Moldavia. The rising
was expected to be general throughout the Ottoman
empire on Sunday, die 11th ult. and nearly 4,0150
Weeks were calculated to go from the said city to Join
the army. Even masters of ships, with their crews.
Mad abandoned their vessels to go to light, anti had
pat off men to join their companions. It is supposed
that the (becks acted ander the impression of some
support or protectiou; sod it is added that Ituroie bay
asked permission of the Porte to let the Reser, fret
pass into the Mediterranean.
