clared, that they had not returned in defiance
OF the proclamation, which they had promptly
nbey' d, and that they were ready 10 submit,
themselves 10 any order which should be taken
IN their cave. For the present, ordered them
Into confinement; but, the Caia6ouse being in mn
condition 10 receive them. for, excepting the
Dinners Room, it has no FIRE place, and as
Con!on is very old man, and his wife NJ tins
fime EXTREMELY ILL, thought il best 10 confine
mem IN tier own houses. The situation of
OLD IouLoN was such, 'ha, il would have been
cruel TO contine him in the dungeon with the
common mait'actors. and / could moi, with

ENGLISH TARIFF We copy the following
paragraph from the Gazette OF this morning:
"The effect of the English Tariff on most OF
the productions ofthis country, is not, we be-
lieve generally understood, and Its operation
UPON some Of our leading staples will probably
excite some surprise. With the exception OF
cotton, scarcely single article escapes duty IN
England, almos, amounting to an entire prohl'
bi,ion. Even slaves have not escaped the VI
GLANCE of the British Tariffi'es. The duty IN
ENGLAND on red oak hid slaves is 1928 s,erlng
they 9 cost in y; North ,,
g'nal cost Of an article, which, if subicc, unI,
to reasonable duty, would give employment
TO large amount of tonnage"
We mi CHI add the article Of tobacco, on
which duty OF thirteen or fifteen hundred per
cent is imposed, and which reduce its con.
sumption 20 an amount that leaves the grower
l:tt'e better off than would an absolute probibi.
ZION. And yet we are daily stuffed with pala
yer abou. Euglith liberal,y.-M. r. Statesman.

LATE FROM EUROPE.

The London New Times of July esd says-Ac
cordng to the latest intelligence from Constantine
Pile, brought by the French Papers OF Monday, the
Sultan began to feel his weakness and to perceive
the evil consequences of his obstnacy. Instead OF
putting himself at the head of the whole nation, as
he had announced, and marching to meet the enemy
if they dared to pass the Danube, he had learned
their arrival within so miles Of his capital, and yet
fingered within its walls, nor even permitted the
Grand Vizier to repair to the army collecting at ADJ
ranope. We say collecting, for II appears that n
force existed that place, no idea being entertain
ed that the Balkan passes could be turned, and its
security being onsidered insured by the position OF
what was denominated the main army at Schumla
The advance Of the Emperor Nicholas along the
coast however, has rendered the army at Schumla
totally unavailable to the defence of Adrianopie.
and vet it cannot be moved down from that post as
the approach Of General Roth's division, from the
Upper Danube, and the march Of other corps to-
wards the Balkan detles, compel the Turks to retain
their station to prevent those dehles from being
forced, and the junction of all the Russian corps In
the plains, which extend almost uninterruptedly to
Constant nople Under these circumstances an al
tempt is made by the Sultan, but too late to be sue
cessul to assemble another army at Adrlanople, to
cover that city, and the direct road to the capital
but he has evidently no troops to spare. Detach-
ments Of l2 or 500 men are sent, when formed OF
whole number assembled does not exceed 10000,
who in of attack, could oppose no resistance t.
the powerful army led on by the russian Emperor
The Turkish decree directing that all garrsons
who surrendered should be put to death, has had a
contrary effect to what was intended. The troops
who had calamity defended Brahilow. hearing of the
decree, and tearing it should be put in force against
them, have requested to be allowed to remain prls
oners of war in Russia. The reques however was
rejected by the Russian Commander All accounts
agree that the Russian army would be in short time
in possession Of all the ports along the Black Sea
The Russian Gen. Paskewtsch had made himself
master of Bajasid, Kars and Ackazcken in Asat-
ic Turkey.
The Turks made an attack on Samos but were
defeated, chiefly through the bravery Of Admiral
Miaulls, and the Greek feet-they left 1900 pris
oners, besides killed and wounded.
The operations in Greece have not of late been o.
much Importance. The war has anguished on botf
sides. The last accounts however, state that thu
Greeks have lately attacked the Turks in Athens
! they took the town, but we're obliged by the Turk
ish batteries of the Acropolis to evacuate it. The
