Literary cadet and Rhode-Island statesman. [volume] (Providence, R.I.) 1827-1829, 1828-10-08


The steam, boat Bonjlmn Franklin, Captain
BUwKER, arrived yeierJOy morning a, an early
hour from New York, having made hei pas
lg0-in Is hours and 43 minutes. We were
favored by passenger @iih tho Commercial
Advertiser Of Monday, evening, from which wo
cops the following intelligence:
LATEST FROM EUROPE.
The packet ship France, Captain Funk, or
rived yesterday from Hayrc, whence sho sal
led on the 9Th ulimo. She brings Paris pa
pors to the 81, and Havre to the 4th Of Sep
tember. The ship Europa. Captain Trepkn,
also arrived yesterday, IN 81 days from Ham
bnrgh, bringing papers from that city TO the
30th Of August inclusive. BY these arrivals,
our adviccs from tho seat Of war are five days
taicr, and from tho Turkish capital ten, than
our preceding dates.
Thoro seems to have boen no foundation
whatever for the rnmours Of rcycrsFs said 10
have overtaken TIE Russian arms before
Choumla. From Choumla tho dates are to
the Sth Of August but the Paris papers only
contain abstracts Of the bulletins from that
point, alcr the departure OF The Emperor.
On the ist Of august, the Emperor published
a proclamation fiom the camp before Chonmla
adopted for tho complete Investment Of Choum-
la, and to hasten the carrying Of that place as
rapidly IA possible Eussicn Pacba is shut
mp in Choumla. nd these measures were adop-
ted 10 further the attack on TINT place. The
march Of Lieut.. Gen. Rudiger upon Eski Stam-
boul has occasoned much uneaslnoss &c the
Turks, as they saw they were on the point Of
having the communication between the capt.
al and.the intcyiour OF the empire cut off, The
Turks collected The greatest part of the caeal-
~ and infantry and attack ed the detachment
commanded by Rudger ard attempted to drive
them back. The Turks were opposed by a
part Of tho l7th division, and alter some bard
ighting tho Turks were defeated and driven
back upon Choumla Gen. Rudiger has taken
posts near Eski sambonl, and so the great
road towGrds Constdntinople is opcn to the
Russians.
The last official bulletin Of tho Russian mr.
my, received in Paris up 10 The Ist September,
is published in the Gazette de France, of that
day, from which we translate it.
The Empercr's arrival at Oddessa, was an
nounced TO our readers more than week ago;
but we have thought il best TO uansafc the
preceding bulletin entire, in order 10 give
connected account Of the Russian operations,
particularly with respect to the occurrences
! at VArna, in respect TO which, without the
bulletin, our information about the unsuccess-
ful sa'lies of the garrison, would have been
vague and imperfect.
Lord Hei'esb ry, the English Ambassador,
| arrived at Oddessa on the lIth Of August. II
is said he is charged with important commun-
cations from his court. On the 18th his lord-
ship had private audience with His Majesty,
and had :he honor TO be introduced to the
Empress and the Grand Duke Michao aol.-On
! the same day there was n splendid tc deum at
tho cathedral, and Thanksgiving for tho taking
Of Kars. On the preceding evening courier
ached that place, who brought dispatches
| communicating the surrender Of the Turkish
fortress poti. situated on The Asiatic Coast of
10. Black Sea, not far from hnapa. The
Danish Ambassador Count Blome arrived at
Odessa on The Same day.
The letters from Odessa to the 18th Of Au.
gust state in substance, that /" a Turkish En-
voY was sent by Hussein Pacha, Commander
in Chief Of the forces at Cbouma. TO the Head
Quarters Of the Emperor, 10 propose the con-
clusion Of an armisiice for three weeks, in or
der that the pacha might send messenger 10
COnstantnople to announce to the Sultan the
state Of affairs at Choumla tho arrival of in
numorab'c forces of tho Russian army, tho
scarcity OF provisions in the Turkish Camp, the
powerful diversion which the Russian Flee. at
Varna could not fail To effect; and. in n word,
all tho hazards which seemed 10 render il the
duty OF tho Sublime Porte 20 prevent, before
it would be too late, the consequences Of a
struggle in which Mussulman valor would un-
doubtedly mako heroic efforts, but which would
issue in the ruin Of the Empire. The Emperor
yielded to the request. and from that moment
hostilitics ceased, both parties maintaining
their respective positions. Our advanced
poss will continue TO occupy the heights OF
| Choumla; the 9TH Corps is on the road to
Constnntinoplc; the Imperial Guards arc on
their march to JON tho bcsieging army. at
Choumla.--The whole army of Poland, a for
midable reserve, will keep the frontiers in
check; and the naval division of Admiral
Creirh, reinforced by some ships of the lino,
will be ready TO land now assailants under the
walls of Varna, and 10 supply our troops with
subsistence. In such an imposing attitude IL is
that the Emperor has como TO Odessa, where,
in the midst ofihe Representatives ofthe prin-
cipal powers Of Europe. he will await tho an
sver Of Sultan Mahmoud. During these de-
liberations, the reinforcemenis will have rea CHI
ed the beseging army, the retrcnchmcnts be-
fore Choumla, and the line Of circumva la,ion
round its walls vii! bo csta blished, and, if the
Grand Scignior should persist in continuing the
war; il VIII be 10 the heart Of his states that
the Emperor will return 10 dictate n peace,
! for The consequences Of which the Sultan
will have no ono to blame but himself"
| II is not known how long the Emperor will
remain At Odessa; but il was generally belicv-
ed that rc would sot out for the army as soon
! MS tho reinforccmcnis expected before Choun,-
Ia should have arrived. II is known that
10000 infantry Of The line passed the Danube
in the beginning Of August, without reck-
onine tho guards which were to pass the river
to-day.
The Dreslau Gazette mentions that letters
from Warsaw announced tha, the Polish troops
had received orders TO march.
