TO reinforce the camp hence the capital Is
comparatively deserted. Il Is said that the
Grand Vixirr will depart for the army to-.
morrow. The fanaticism Of the people has
pcently been carried tOa high pitch, but the
apital nevertheless remains tranquil.
ODESSA, Aug. IS.
A courier OF Gen. Paskewitch arrived yes
lerday, with news Of the capture of Acha-
schll and TOpsachale, fOrtresses situated in
the PaChalik of Ezerum. Thirty-four STAN
dards and several thousand prisoners are the
trophies of this victory.
The general report, for the accuracy If
which we cannot vOuch, is, that the Emperor
Nicholas has refused the mediation Of Eng
land, offered by Lord Heytesbury.
ODESSA, Aug. 90.
His Imperial Highness, the Grand Duke
Michael, after stay of some days, left this
place yesterday, for Kuslindji.
The Journal, of this place, contains an Off
cial notice from the Magistrates, enjOining
those who intend to prosecute their claims
against the Ottoman Porte. on account ofthe
'mpediments thrown in the way of their trade
after the battle Of NavarinO,t to deliver state
nent of their claims, and the necessary dOcu-
ments to support them, to the Commission
appointed in Odessa for that purpose, and in
he manner intimated in the Ordinances of
the Minister for Foreign Affairs. These claims
must BE- delivered in by the first of Septem-
Der, which time is also fixed for the sending
in of documents to support the claims already
stated. Why are these claims called for!-
This looks more like negotiation than like
war;
ODESSA, Aug. is.
Never was Odessa 50 brilliant as it is at this
moment, when the Imperial family, with a
numerous Court, and the Foreign Ambassa-
doris. honor us with their presence.
His Majesty will, however, in a few days
return to the army, when the reinforcements
shall have arrived, and the Operations will be
RECOMMENDED with vigor.
1t is probable, therefore, that decisive
battle will soon take place, ON which the fate
of the campaign will depend, and by which it
is hoped the Porte will find itself compelled
to give the satisfaction and the security rtqui-
red.
To the evils of foreign war are now added
internal discOntents, and according to all the
accounts which have been received here from
COnstantinOple. the people are indspOsed a
gainst the government, and there is reason to
dread the revival of the Janissaries.
10 Armenia these dangerous enemies ofthe
Sultan are very active. and though Gen. Pas
kewitch is said to be ordered not to have a.
ny thing to do with them. yet they involun-
tarily do him much service. The consign-
ments of corn and -four from this port to
Constantinople. which were made a few
weeks ago by the consent of the government,
ON board French and Austrian ships.are now
prohibited. and the Turkish capital. which,
through the magnanimity Of our Emperor,
has not yet suffered the want of provisions,
will soon learn that it is in his power to give it
up to famine.
CONsTANTINOPLE, Aug. II.
The Refs Effendi said lately to a European
Dragoman, 1.-THE Sultan will take the field at
the head of his people, and the issue of the
contest is in Gods hands," The sole reason
of the deferrlng of the departure ofthe Grand
Vizier from Daud Pacha to Adrianople, is
said to be- that the Sultan's astrologers de.
clared the first days Of the month of Sefer to
be unlucky. The Sultan's resolution was APP
proved by the great men of the Empire, but,
as it seems, not by the lower classes. The
line obedience from Slistria to Turkas, near
Karabowma, is no other than the old position
occupied by the Emperor Anastasius, in $50,
but which at that time did not answer the end
proposed. The Sultan has spared the life
of SULLIVAN, Pacha of Brailow but has Danish
ed him to Mitylene.
The European officers who attended Hus-
sein Pacha to Shumla, to teach the troops
the new exercise, are for the most part come
back 1t seems that they have been sent "a
way from distrust. However. they directed
the measures of defence which are now be-
gun. According to their account, this cam
paign is attended with many difficulties to the
Russians. The Cossacks, it seems. are no
match for the SPANS, and as the Turks in
their retreat lay waste every thing, there is
nothing to crafty their love of plumber. The
frman, too. forbidding the Turks to cut of
the heads and ears of the enemy, is not car
ried into effect by Hussein Pacha, and this
serves to increase the fury of the Spahis The
enemy's army, it is added, is not well sup
piled with provisions.
Should the Russians take Shumla, an OBJ
stinate conflict will begin under the walls Of
ConstantinOple, which, according to all that
has occurred here during the last three weeks
will decide in terrible manner the fate ofthe
Christians. Every body looks forward with
the greatest anxiety to the Development of
this awful crisis.
