RUSSIA AND PERslA.---The Emperor Of Russia
published formal declaration Of war against
Persia, On the 2sth OF September; but battle
had previously occurred on the Cd, in which the
former were victorious. The Russians attack.
ed the Persians at the Chamora, 900 strong
and killed 1000. Gen. Yermoloff, in an order
OF the day, says: the Persian Cour, has been
treacherous; and the Russian Manifesto init.
mates that war will be carried on Till security
and indemnity shall be obtained Hence il
may be concluded that he will use every possi.
BILE exertion 10 secure some Of the frontier bro.
yinces and strong holes Of Persia, and thus
throw every possible obstacle in the way Of flu
ture irruptions Of his enemies into his own do
minons.
A letter from ST. Petersburgh has the follow.
ing passage:--"The Persian wa. with this coun
try resembles the Burmese war, the Persisns
having taken fancy to conquer Russia with
10000 men. The result Of such affairs with
the Persians is generally the loss Of few heads
and noses among the unlucky counsellors,"
Russia AND TuRKEy-Itis probable that the
now pending be,wxt the Courts
of St Petersburg and Constanlinople, may be
facilitated blythe present movements ofthe Per.
slams. The Russian autocrat may be anxious
to avoid the embarrassments in which he
would necessarily be involved, by a war with
two distinct nations, whose armies, operating
in distinct places, would compel him to divide
his forces, and would harass him in various d.
rections. Hence he will probably be induced
10 grant milder terms 10 the Turks than those
on which he would have insisted, under other
circumstances. The first Banking Houses at
Frankfort were looking with an anxious eye 10
the political movements on the Peninsula, and
the conferences ofAckermann. Although they
were convinced tina, the grea, powers Of Gu.
rope would use every exertion to prsserye
peace, still they were prevented from underlak.
ing any important operations.
A letter of The 18th October, from Frankfort
announces that courier from Vienna had jusE
brought intelligence that the Ultilnatum Of
Russia had been definitely acceded to by the
Porte. This intelligence reached Ackermann
on the 9th, and the Russian Plenipoteniares
left that place on The following day for Odessa.
Several couriers were Immediately dispatched
to the different commercial towns. The pub.
lie effects got up in consequence.
TuRKEY-A letter from Constantinople, d.
ted Sept. 25th, says, that the Porte persists in
the plan of reinforcing the army with unabadng
obstinacy.
Several persons have been arrested and exc.
cuted for having had share in the conaagra.
