WAR IN TrRKFy
According to the Berlin accounts of Oct.
26, the latest news from the Theatre of
War states that after the fall of Varna,
Omer Vrione effected retreat, and was
Immediately pursued by Prince Eugene de
Wurtemburg. UnQfcial acs ,unts add that
the Russian troops have occupied Burgos,
The Prussian State Gazette of Oct 80,
brings down the news from Varna to-
the 18th.
Early in the morning of the 18th, Te
Deum was chanted in the camp of Count
Woronzow, and in presence of the Empe
ror, in celebration of the fall of Varna. Tho
finest weather favored this solemnity, at
which all the diplomatistS and officers were
present. On the same morning, the Captain
Pacha marched out of the citadel, together
with the troops in favor of whom capitua-
ton had been agreed to. On the 18th, the
Emperor attended divine service in the
Greek Church of Varna. On the evening
of the 18th, his majesty had it in contempla-
ton to embark for Odessa, and thence to
continue uninterruptedly his journey to st.
Petersburg. The corps dip!omatiqtse was
to embark for Odessa at the same time
Omer Vrione retreated Immediately after

position on the opposite bank OF the kauit-

PARIS, Nov. A. We are informed that
the greatest preparations are making in the
Crimea for a secret expedition. 1t is not
unlikely that the Grand Seignor vii! soon
have serious business in the neighborhood
of Constantinople. It is also stated that the
blockade of the Dardanelles renders the
Turks uneasy, who, whatever may lie said
on the subject. are by no means satisfied
with the changes introduced into the en-
pire.
ANcoSA, Oct II. The Porte is very
much irritated at the invasion of the Mored
by the French, and the Ministers of Ans
tria and the Netherlands have had great
difficulty in preventing formal declaration
of war. The Divan at last yielded and has
sent 10 Corfu, in the place of declaration
Of war, a reply to Stratfnrd Canning and
Guileminot, in which he renews his invita-
ton to the Ambassadors, in very polite
terms, TO return to Constantinople. The
Refs Effendi in his letter deplores the mis-
understanding which occasoned the depar-
tuFe Of the Ambassadors, recaptulates the
difficulties which interfere with the re-es-
tablishment Of the amicable relations of the
Porte with England and France, and SOL
EMMY assures the Ambassadors, if they
will return to Constantinople, that all differ
ences shall be settled. The Refs Effendi
added: San interview of one hour with
your Excellencies, will be sufficient to con-
vince you that the Porte is sincerely desir-
Gus Of meeting the views of the two Powers
as far depends upon herself. Your EX-
cellencies must he aware that the Porte
cannot enter into any negotiations with the
representative of Russia, which would GER
tainiy be the case if she sent e9voys TO
Corfu" The REFS Efend hence, infers the
necessity of the return of the Ministers to
Constantinope, to consult upon the stipula-
tons of the Treaty of London Persons
who are well aware of Turkish policy, say
that the Porte in making this declaration.
has no other object in view, but to separate
the cabinets of London and Paris, from that
of st. Petersburg. They will oppose the
voluntary evacuation OF the Morea. But
the Porte has not yet uttered single sylla-
bic which can he interpreted as denunci-
alton of her right upon Greece, and if for
tune continues to favor her, she will not
fail to improve her ancient claims. We
are curious to know in what light the cabi-
nets of Paris and London will view the new
reply Of the Porte.
GREECE.
A despatch from General Maison, COM
manding the French forces in the Mo
rea, dated Oct IL, announces the surrender
of the fortresses Of Missenia (Coron, Modon
Navarino,) and of Patras, and the castle of
the Morea which had been left by Ibrahm
Pacha, in the occupation Of $500 Turkish
and Egyptian troops, who were to he imme-
diately embarked for Egypt, with their
arms and baggage. The Governor of Ma
yarino, on being summoned by Admiral de
Rigny, to give up the possession of that
place TO the French, made answer, "The
