Hamburger papers to the 18th of April
instant, received in England, contain the
following particulars relating the revolt OF
the Greeks against the Porte. 1t Prince
Ypsilanti can maintain himself for short
time even against the Ottoman arms with
any apparent strength of adherents and OF
resources, the instruction will spread; but
it can terminate only in a useless waste of
human life. Should the Turkish govern
ment be too weak to quell the rebellion,
Austria and Russia are at hand, to end
the struggle. They will not be likely to
permit the establishment of an indepen
dent Greek empire, and any question of
protection by either of these powers,
would involve formidable difficulties as
connected with the political relations of
Europe.-Courier.
Hamburger, AprI II.
A communication deserving of credit,
dated Brody, 2sd March, has been COM
municated to us, stating, that Gen. Count
Langeson, governor of Odessa, had call
ed a meeting of the merchants, and assn
red them that they might continue their
shipments, notwithstanding the events in
Moldavia. Reports of troubles in Con-
stantinople, where the Greeks were said
to have stormed the arsenal, seems to me-
rit little credit; but Greek army ap-
pears to be advancing towards that CAPT
tai.
JasSy, March le.
Prince Ypsilanti has marched with a
we'll equipped corps, stated to amount to
&c, 900 Greeks, Moldavians, and Arnauts,
with sixteen pieces of cannon, and has
issued proclamation of great length
The military preparations are continued
with all diligence by the Prince Suzzo,
VINO remains behind; and if money may
be considered as chief requisite, this
was in abundance. Tranquility is fully
restored. The number of Turks killed
in the first commotion is said to be forty,
mostly of the poorest class. The Turks
who were at Borduschani, have taken re-
fuge in Russia.
The following are extracts from the
Paris papers of Monday:
Extract Of a private letter in the Quoti-
dienne.
Madrid, AprI 4th.
Very serious movements have taken
place in the province of Burgos. A ca
non of Valencia, MERINO, who, in the
late war against France, commanded d.
vision of 1000 men, and who obtained sig
nal successes over the troops of Buona
parte, has suddenly started up in that
province at the head OF an armed troop,
and has raised the standard of religion
and the king. The Citrate Villobiado, by
very mastery movement, went from
Valencia to Arcand- de-Duero, and there
mustered veterans who had formerly SER
we'd under him. Two days after his arri-
val he was joined by above two hundred
young men; his emissaries are already
ranging the various ACCOMPLISHMENTS OF
the province, particularly at Soria, where
they made generalrequisition of horses.
This intelligence has excited great sensa-
ton at Burgos. The commandant in
antly dispatched messenger to Madrid,
requiring reinforcements, under the ap-
prehension that the Curate Villobiado
would march to Burgos to release the roy
alists who are immured in the prisons
amongst whom are some of his personal
friends.
No dependence whatever can be put
upon the national guards at Burgos, the
inhabitants have formally refused to do
active duty. The military commandant
has taken such measures as were in his
power to arrest the progress of the patri-
OTIS, who have already shewn themselves
at the gates of the town. The ferment
which this event has produced in the pro-
vinces contiguous to that of Burgos is in
describable.

Extract of private letter in the Journal
des Debats.
The situation of our neighbours, the
Turks, excites the most lively attention.
The revolutionary movements of Media
via and Wallachia happen precisely at the
same moment that the Greek of Isle of
Gambia refuse to pay the extraordinary
tribute, which the Musilhim, or Govern
or of the Isle, had ordered to be levied
upon them. Albania is far from being
tranquil; the Torzidas, from which tribe
the famous Ali Pacha descends, shew a
disposition to maintain his Mouctas, in
the possession of his hereditary domains
The old Ali Pacha himself, by means of
his immense treasures, corrupts, success
siyely, the Generals who are sent to be-
