The Augsburg Gazette Of the IIth ii
April, has news from ConstantinopIe NJ
the Ilth OF March, Of which the %folIow;n@,
is an extracts:
The Turkish government continues i.
preparations for war with the greatest sc.
| tivity. Terror seems TO have seized ths
| Franks who inhabit Para. An abyssno,
pened before their eyes. The Porte er.
erts itself 10 maintain the tranquility d
the capital at this critical moment; but At
the commencement OF hostillties a great
catastrophe threatens all Christians. Er.
cesses took place even at the beginning
Of this month, but order has happily been
restored.
Every body takes arms, and the 20.
verument no longer respects the rights d
nations, for, for at the beginning Of tbs
month it caused many vessels to be seized
under different flags, among others, seye.
raj Austrian vessels. The demonstrates
Of the Ambassadors of Austria and England
have not succeeded IN obtaining The re.
lease OF these vessels; in short, what was
forseen by those who know the spirit Of
the Turkish government and the feelings
of the nation, has come to pass. War
and the determination Of the Greeks are
the order of the day with all the Musx.
men. Great misiortunes have been PIE.
pared for the Christians Of this capital, By
giving them hope, in which sensible PEG.
pie never placed any credit. but which
have, however, influenced the greater
number. Flight is become impossible
II will be necessary to wait till the Turkish
ministers adopt measures for the security
Of the European ministers; then a CERTAIN
number of other persons will be abIe5
escape at the same time.
"Lord %Strangford has received positive
| information from Odessa, that the dseto.
Nikolsjew was equipped, and that The
! Russian government would commence
boslilities if it had not received a satishs,
tory answer by the end Of March.
From this moment every body thinks
| Of saving his fortune, for sooner off7atsr
this city will be tne theatre of pillage and
assassination. Yesterday, in The Grand
Mosque, the Ulemas pronounced an Ana
thema against the Christians.
