Last evening, the ship Rasselas, Capt. Brig

bringing London dates to the 24th December.
twenty days later tpan those by the Amity, ar
rived at New-York. The most important ar
ticles in the latest paper, relates to the affairs
of Turkey, which we find thus stated in the
True BrStD1s -
Towards the close Of the Stock Exchange
on Saturday, a rumour prevailed that Govern
ment had received dispatches of very war
like tenor, from Russia. A general movement
had taken place in the Grand Russian Army
OF the West, under Gen. Saclxen. The head
quarters were to be Immediately transferred to
Kiow! A part Of the army, under Yermaloff,
had entered VolhynfS; and is 20 advance into
Podolla, in order to form junction, in the
heart of Mofdavia, with the Army of the Pruth,
under Wittgenstein.
In this state Of things, rance may be expect
ed to take decided part IN the affairs of Tur-
key: The natural inclination OF all the French
parties rs no doubt IN favour of the Greeks g.
and such no doubt is the natural inclination of
all parties in England. We trust that no mu-
tual prejudice will prevent France and Eng
land from uniting their Counsels in this great
emergency.
The accounts from Gresoe state, that Epirus
is in a state Of general insurrection, -both the
Mahomedan and Greek inhabitants against the
Ottoman powers On the other side, Asiatick
Turkey is trampled, with little opposition, by

all the powers Of Europe will abandon it to its
fate, should it refuse to assent to the proposals
made by Russia. No answer had been re-
Turned to this Note at the time of the departure
Of the last courier for Vienna.
The Court G0sette Of PETERSBURG. Of o8th
Nov. contains the following article, which
seems to announce the proximity Of war be-
tween the Turks and Russia :---ss The nego-
Citations between Russia and the Porte have. il
is said, taken an unfavourable turn the For
eign Ministers at ConstantinopIe are making
every effort to smooth difficulties. The Divan
had, m the first place, consented to the evacu-
alton Of Moldavia and Wallachia hut it has
since abrutly changed its opinion. The Otto
man troops, who occupy those Provinces, were
even IN motion to retire beyond the Danube,
when they received counter-orders they now
expect considerable reinforcemcnts. Il an
pears that the Turks, resolved upon war, now
respect nothing compelled, therefore, to come
to extremes, they treat as enemies all who are
not Mahometans. The English alone have
found favour in his Highness's eyes"
The Hamburgh Mail arrived this morning,
with papers from that city to the 18th inst
The continuance Of peace is contemplated at
Vienna with increased confidence, and the
publck paper has risen in consequence. OF
the ground Of this expectation we have, how
ever, no explanation nor account. The En-
