Blood still flows profusely in the Turkish
Dominions but the accounts continue con-
Trajectory, and unsatisfactory. Those which
are given in the British opposition journals.
represent the Insurgents as every where tri-
umphant, and as receiving every day an ac-
cession OF strength. In the Islands, the Morea,
aud on the Danube, the accounts continue to
state that success has crowned their Efforts
Altho' most, iinot all ofthe accounts are doubt
less exaggerated, still the Instruction is for
midable enough TO require the full energies of
the Porte for its suppression. The measures
winch 1t has taken for the purpose are dilato-
ry to an extraordinary degree. The Turkish
Ministry seem TO be fully sensible of the dan
ger and, therefore, their hardness evinces a
want OF means, more than n want of will. 1t
Is quite clear however, that the Turkish EN-
pre- IS in great crisis-beyond all compari-
son, the greatest in which it has been placed
since It's establishment on this side of the Bos-
phorus. 1t seems TO be crilmblng TO pieces
the abuses of the horrible tyranny, and the
rust OF an iron superstition, have nearly eaten
away the pillars upon which it rests" We
cannot but look with keen interest upon this
struggle, as it would afford the highest degree
OF satisfaction, to see the Greeks capable of
overwhelming the Turkish Empire, and filling
up the chasin, by erecting an Independent
state upon IFS ruins. But is much to be fear
ed, the conflict in which they are engaged, can
only turn out to the advantage of third par
". The conduct of Russia may be consider
ed as equlvocal. She is close observer of
the events OF the Instruction, and is collect
ing imposing masses of troops on the Turkish
limits. The importance of the prey, saws a
London editor :the facility of the seizure the
unavoidable jealousy of the Turks, perhaps a
rash aggression on the part of one of their
COMMANDERS or intemPerate resolution onthe
part of the Porte itself, with the incessant So
llcltatlons OF the insurgents for aid, will con-
unually oppose the moderate councils profes-
Sed by the Russian government at this mo-
ment and it will require an extraordinary
sense ofJustice to be able TO withstand suci,
powerful temptations. Should Russia i'm the
course OF these troubles, be induced TO inter
lere, she would act for her own interests alone
andthe Greek Insurgents would be mere in
| struments other ambition. The bubble of a
Greek empire would burst, or, Ike the king
dom of Poland, the name would be restored
IN order TO swell the titles of the Gar
rom the other parts of Europe, we find
little to interest or amuse. The Emperor Al
eXander had passed through Warsaw, where
he reviewed the most of his army, under the
Grand Duke Constantine.
The Emperor of Austria has addressed three
autograph letters, the first to Prince Meter
nIch, appointing him Chancellor of State OF
the Court and Imperial House. The second
IS addressed to the Minister of Finance, Count
Stadion, Graclously acknowledging his public
services. The Third is a letter TO the Baron
de Frimont. His Majesty states, that the
promptitudc and order with which he has con-
Quoted the military operations, have perfectly
equailed his desires, and his expectations > and
adds that g looking TO the general situation o.
thlnSs at the commencement of the late cam
palGn, he and the army under his command
have well merited not only their Sovereign's
Acknowledgements but those ofthe Monarchy
and the whole of Europe
Accounts from Madrid corroborate the new.

tlnues to be unpopular.
The Neapolitan General Rossarol, has ar

a proposition is alleged TO have been made
by the COrtes, that one Infant of Spain should
proceed to Mexico, and another to some par
oil South America, there TO establish two free
monarchles secured in their liberties by ma.

by commercial treaties. This project seems
to be looked upon with some favor at Ma.
