The principal items of news furnished by
these arrivals, will be found below; but in
order to poke room for the Turkish De-
claration'in- answer to the Russian Mani
festo, we have been obliged to notice ina
ny things in more summary manner than
we could have desired. On comparison
of this document with the Russian Mann
fesio, ii will be seen that the Turk de-
elares every one OF the charges TO be
without foundations; and discusses, Strid-
tim, after first accusing Russia with the
attack upon Chotien aud Bender, the du-
plcity OF her ambassadors at AckermaD,
and her refusal To renew the Tariff Of
Commerce. The charge Of having pun.
lshcd the Servians, it meets BY justihea-
fion m virtue OF the irresponsible power OF
sovereign over his subjects. The same
reply is made in the question Of the
Greeks, coupled with complaint against
Russia, that she did not deliver up Ypsi-
lanti and the IIospodar Of MOldavia, as
She was bound TO do. The non execution
of the treaties Of Bucharest and Acker.
man it retorts upon Russia; and denies
that the Porte ever entertained a mental
reservation upon the latter, or that it in.
sligated Persia TO make war upon Russia.
The seizure Of the Russian ships, it justi.
fes az a measure forced upon the Porte in
consequence Of the blockade; stating, at
the samn time, TINT no injury was done to

Jneiiately paid. AS 10 stirring up the
Nussulmans' vengeance against Russia, il
attributes the arousing Of that feeling
purely TO the encroachments of Russia
Eainst the country aud government. The
Pore concludes the Declaration with
yowlDg it TO be made; that "none may say
any thing against her." and "to be able to
keep clear her conscience of an event
which may occasion now and hencefor.

haps may shake the tranquility of the
whole world"
On the part OF the Russians, they are
marching forward, slowly, to be sure, but
IN an almost nninterrupted'-c course Of vic.
t0ry.--ln addition to the capture Of Brai
low, two other fortresses have surrender
cd--Hrsova on the Danube, and Kusten
dii, on the Black Sea. The rear on the
right and left fanks is thus secure, Whilst
Euslendiji affords them the means Of re
cGlving, with the greatest facility, supplies
of provisions and ammunition from Odes
sa. In both plnces, considerable quaint
ties of artillery and ammunition, as well
as military stores, fell into the hands ofthc
Russians.
The advices from Constantinople are 10
the 10th Of June. The Porte was contin'
u'l'y adding to its preparations for de
fence, bnt the utmost moderation was OBJ
served, and the preparations are not upon
very extensive scale. Eye witnesses ai
firm, that the number of troops destined
for the defence of the Bosphorus and the
Dardanclles docs not exceed, at ihcutmost,
10000 men. One corvette, l2 fire ships,
- row boats, 6 largo vessels laden with
cannon, ammunition, &c. have lately left
Constantinoplc. for the Dardanellcs and
par, for the fortresses on the Black Sea.
On the 2d, there was a grand review at
the summer palace ut Bcschikitash On
the 9Th. 6000 militia arrived from Asia,
and have been sent towards tho Danube.
A frman has lately been published, call
ing upon the people to be ready to march
in mass. with the Grand Vzier, against
the Russians Nece rthclcss, all the men-
sures of Government iudic ate that 1t does
not intend 10 urge the Mahomefan people
20 the extreme Of fanaticism, and the Porte
seems to have made propositions TO the
courts Of London and Paris, and appears
50 hang his hopes upon them.

American TariT--On the motion for the
House of Commons, on the ilth, TO 60 in
In a Committee of Ways and means, Mr..
Stuart, in calling the attention Of the
House to the American Tariff, observed
that though it was too late 10 act on the
subject during this session OF Parliament
the government ought to attend TO the sub
iect. The Chancellor Of the EXchequcr
replied that it would be attended TO at the
earliest opportunity. On the 18th, Mr.
lIuskisson gave notice that on the 18th he
would move an addscss to his Majesty,
praying that the official communications
on the subject, and the instructions of the
English Minister at Washington relative e
10 the Tariff, SHOULD be laid on The table.
