RUSSIA AND TURKEY.
The Courier of 18th July contains al
article from the Hamburg Corresponds,
T" which tthe editor of lhe Courier m
serves may be considered as al osad
exposition of the system and conduct 4
Russia, with respect to her diferencesviI

hypocritical pretence, that it will "sp

first glance we took OF this pretended |. |
fetal document" we were satisfied il ui
a forgery /; and on. turning to the for.g9
journals we found these suspicious con
6rmed by the declaration OF the Editor D
the paper from which it was copied, Hb,
states, that he was authorised 70 conlrs'
dict the article, every part Of which va
"unfounted."
The latest accounts from St. Petenbu,
are Of the 18th Of June. at which pern |
nothing had transpired as to the viessa
the Emperor. A letter from Leipslc dan
the 9th June states, thai the AustE
party which lately seemed triumphant
St.Petersburg. had once more been hroa
isto the ehade, since the return Of The e.
peror to his capital, and that Count Clp
D'lstria and bis colleagues, who suppd.
ed the Greek cause. would REGAIN al be
head OF the administration. In an article,
dated Nuremburg, June 20, it is said ha:
according TO private accounts from Ven
ma. thsre is reason to believe that the all
ferences between Russia and The Porli
are not yet removed !; for it is affirmed
that the Porte requires preliminary ael|
on the part OF Russia that is, The ;end
ing of an ambassador to CoDstsollnoopIt
because it pretends that il had 30 dincg
ties with Russia, and did not break Oh "
negotiations, which we're only suspendd
by the departure of NJ. D. Strogonoh.'
The Porte, therefore, requires 10 SOU
measure, at least by implication, that u
Russian court shall disavow the cono'a
of that minister; and it is not thought Inl
Russia can consent TO this, whatever aa'
be the incIinatIons of the leading MIMI
tiers in the Russian Cabinet.
With respect to the evacuation Of w
principalities by the porte, the lalea .u|
vices frsm Moldayis state. that "an ~
mains exactly where il was" and tha' Us
Turks had begun again to compl' w
greatest excuses. AT Jassy they demand
ed extraordinary contributions IN corn -, ~
money, threatening 10 burn down all ln'
rest Of the city, if their demands were |"
complied with. Commercial .sdI' :,
