 NEw-YoRK, Dec. 5.
 By an arrival at this port, London papers have beeh received to the Slst of October They contain the "separatc act" or treaty be- tween Russia and Turkey, relating to the prime qualities of Moldavia and Wallachia, an abstract of which we give below. It will be seen that these principalities are virtually sep a rated from the Turkish empire, and cOnsti- tuted independent states under the protection 1 of Russia. The only sign of connection with the Porte is the payment of tribute, the a. mount of which is not yet determined, and is not even to be paid until two years after the total evacuation of the principalities by the Russian troops.
 Mold0ui0 aud Wall0chiG.-The separate act relating to these principalities provides that the reign of the Hospodars shall not as for r1eriy be limited to years, hut they shall be invested with the dignity for life, except tn the case of ahdication, or of expulsion for crimes committed. The Hospodars are to administer the internal government of the! provinces, with the assistance of their Divan, according to their own pleasure. provided they do not interfere with the rights guaran- tied to the two countries by treaties. The Sublime Porte engages to retain no fortified point upon the left bank of the Danube. and no MahOmetan is ever to be allowed to have his residence in MOldavia or Wallachia.- Merchants, however. provided with frmans, may be admitted for the purpose Ofbuying such articles as may be required for the consumption of Constantinople. The Turkish cities situated on the left bank of the Danube are to be restor. ed to Wallachia, and the Notifications previ- "usly existing on that bank are never to he repaired. Mahometans possessing landed property either in those cities. or upon any point left Ot the Danube, must sell such prop erty to natives within l8 months. The gov ernment ofthe principalities are entitled to all the privileges Of independence in their inter- nal administration. and the government of each principality are permitted to maintain a sufficient military force, for the execution of the quarantine duty. the protection of the frontiers. the maintenance Of order, 6<c. Mol daS;a and Wallachia are to he forever relieved ot all those contributions of corn, provisions, cattle. and timber, which they were formerly bound to furnish for the supply Of COnstanti- n0pie and for the victualling the fortresses of the Danube, and in lieu thereof they are tO pay yearly. pecuniary indemnity. the a. mount 0f fee hieh ss l.
