PANS, Feb. %.
We have this instant received fresh letters from
Constantiuople, dated the Goth Of January. They
are extremely interesting
g Circumstances appear at length 20 indicate the
approach of a crisis which has been long feared
The last haiti -scherf, which destroyed all hopes
OF reconciliation with Russia, well with respect
10 its internal affairs, and the treaty Of Alderman,
as with regard TO the proposals pacihcation, has
been read in all the mosques; and the immediate
closing of the Bosphorus against the ships of all
Christian nations, affords proof that the late ne
quotations have so incensed the Porte, that il no
longer cares for the maintenance of the existing
treaties with the other States. Ia the midst OF all
these alarms, the military preparations and mea-
of precautions prosecuted with great dill
gence palace for the Sultan is building on the
Asiatic coast, with dtclres and Notifications, to
which he may retreat in case Constantinoplc may
be besieged.
g The march Of troops 10 Adrianople continues,
well as the sending OF the Sultan's equpages;
who, according TO report which is generally be-
leyed, viii very shortly go to that city.
IS The persecution of the Greeks and Armeni-
ans is not relaxed. NJ. d'OuenfeiS has inter
fered without success. All the Catholic Ar
Inenian churches in Pera and Gaiata have been
closed.
1T is difficult 10 conceive the miserable coudi-
ton in which the Armenian Christians without G *
ception, have been for this fortnight past. On the
18th irman appeared, according to which 27,000
Catholics OF that nation were to quit Para and Ga
lata. This order was executed on the spot IN all
Itsfigour. On interpolation of the Austrian In
ternuncio and OF the Prunats, the blind, the old
persons above 70, and women with child alone re-
ceiyed permission to remain, and almost general
emigration then began; thousands Of Armenians
left the two quarters TO embark; and fathers were
seen carrying. their children in baskets upon poles,
hasten.ng 90 the port. Their dwellings, were i'm
Inetiately occupied by Mussulmcn Soliers.--
Those of the rich which were shut up were
immediately scquestcred for the benefit Of the
n i. -
most deserted The state Of the caritaj Ia general
has melancholy appearance, and all hops OF any
arrangements vanished. The cxiles on the Goa
o. Asia are byo0ding over projects Of vengeance, B.
The rage ofthc MussulmaIis against the Christians,
.nflamed by the hrInans and the haiti scheFif in
every moment, that every thing is to be
feared. In addition to this, 100000 Asiatics are
expected. Their arrival viii be The SIGNAL for the
in4sl complete anarchy.
SMYRNA, Ian. 10.
The state C things In this city Is becoming very
critical for the European inhabitants. The
counts from Constantinopie announce measures Of
che Porte which seem to Indicate that prescription
and coniiscatiOn threaten the subjects of all the
three nations who possess any thing, and have not
been able to secure themselves in time. Nolun-
tary emigration has already commenced here, and
the Ionians, in particular, are preparing 10 with
draw.-Jlc affairs OF Sc!o contribute still more to
isIfta;e tbe Government 1t Is said tie fort being
IN want of water, will not be able TO hold above
uatis, perhaps, the expedition fitted out at
Nitylenc TO assist the Turks from edecung any
tiiing up 10 ;iii5 moment.
" On The news OF the expedition prepared by
Tsber Pacha 10 succour Scio, NJ dc kigny wished
20 proceed to Mytclenc with French and Rus
sian fFgate, 10 hinder the execution of this design
and 10 prevent fresh massacres. Having invited
Commodore Hamilton to join them, ihe latter re-
Piled that his instructions did not 80 far. This
event causes great sensation.

PARIS, Feb. 70.
The Gazette De France Of Thursday, which ar
fived last night, has brought article from the
frontiers Of Russia, from which may be inferred !
sion on the Continent, that we would wish TO es-
cape from the Treaty Of the 9Th OF July, for the
emancipation Of Greece. The article contends, |
that whatever Notifications the English Admins
;faton may have undergone, " France and Rus
sa had not made and guaranteed treaty with the
Canning and Goderch Minister'S but with the
King OF Great Britain, Whose word ought TO be as
sacred as tat OF any other Monarch" and that
whatever concessions his political situation might
require in bis own country, they ought not to in
scffcre with his acts towalds foreigners If the
battle Of Navarin may be considered in England in
different lights, Il cannot be IN other countries,
where recompenses and censure are attached 70 /
fixed ideas, and where honorable distinctions are
not conferred upon faults" Our acting IL repre- |
scented as deplorable," and as little consistent
with Z" the truly noble sentiments Of the Emperor
Nicholas morn. enron
C1he London Courier IS very indignant at the ap-
learance Of the above article and intimaes that Il
was manufactured az some other place and sent 70
augsburg for insertion. The article concludes |
with the following paragraph" England does /
not distrust Russia and France Russia and France |
DO not dstfust England. They have prescribed /
2 clear ard distinct line Of policy. whose object is
tho preservation Of the peace and tranquility Of
SVTopc."
