BY the arrival of the Fama. Capt. Pratt,
at Boston, OH Friday last, Cork ,ynpers were
received TO the lst of March. The Colum-
bian Centinel says-"They contain trans
lation of the Manifesto of the Ottoman
Porte on the conduct of the Allies, and
particularly that OF Russia, which it boldly
charges with criminal projects, and prctext
for declaring war, and that England and
France are her dupes.
Turkish .Nonifsio.-The following is
an extract from the manifesto of the Sub.
lime Porte, dated at Constantnople March
II.
II was repeatedly declared to the Am
bassadors that as soon as the Greeks would
sue for pardon their faults would be who'll
ly forgotten; that their goods, their per-
sons; their estates would be restored; that
they would enjoy perfect tranquility; that
they should be relieved from the payment
Of the capitation and other tributes which
they owe since the beginning of the insur-
rection; and besides, in order to crafty
the three Powers, they would be exempt
Of all the tribute for the space of one year;
and that all the privileges which the con-
dition Of Rayas allowed would be granted
them, but nothing beyond that limit. In
the conferences the Sublime Porte earn.
estly requested the Ambassadors to trans
NIT to their respective Courts those friend
| ly declarations and sincere explanations,
promising that the armis,ice which they
! had demanded would be observed until the
answer should be received. The invita-
ton only served to increase their pride and
their pretcnsions. Finally, they declared
that they " ould consent to nothing so long
as the privileges which they claimed
should not be granted to the Greeks in
babitlng ancient Greece that is TO say the
Morca, Attica, and the Isles Of the Archi-
, pelago, and they announced that they
would all three depar: together. II the
three Powers, when they see US determin-
ed, as in the past, TO reject their vain de-
mands, accept our answer, and our expla-
nations, and desist from the Greek affair,
it will be well. If-on the contrary-they
should persist TO force us to accept their
demands, even tho according to their tre,
dition, which says that all infdels coi,poss
but one nation, they should all league
| themselves against re--wc would recon-
mend ourselves To- Gud--we would place
ourselves under the protection of our Holy
Prophet--and. united for the defence Of
Religion aud the Empire. all the Vizicrs-
all the Ulcmas--all the RidgG.ls--aad even
perhaps oil Mussclmen, would form but
one single corps. Let US sacrifice our
property and our souls--aRd labor with
heart and soul for the maintenance Of res
ligious war until tho day Of Judgment"
Any objection, any argument, which
might have been founded upon the bat,'e
of Nsvarin. is thus cleared away and re-
moved, Battle, or no battle, the Porte
seems TO have been determined 10 refuse
her consent TO the Independence Of Greece.
