parture, all the Consuls except the Aus
trian, hoisted their flags, and the ships-of-
war fired salute. The Austrian Consul
at Smyrna, during the Koszta affair, had
arrived at Athens, from which it was in
ferred that he had been dismissed.
The Journals of Frankfort, of the 30th,
says that Austria intends not only to de-
mand reparatlon from the United States
for the Smyrna affair, but insists that the
Porte shall Immediately procure the extra
dition of Kossta.
St. Petersburgh letters say, that when
the Car heard of the KosSta affair, he
advised Austria to settle it as easily as
possible, and do anything rather than give
the United States pretence for interfer-
ing in the affairs of Europe.
The correspondent of the New York
Herald, writing from Constantinople, July
18th says This affair has elevated the
character of our young Republic immense
ly through Constantinople, as we'll as
at Smyrna. The conduct of the Ameri-
can authorities is loudly applauded by all
classes ofpeople. Many Austrians, more hui
name than the government, loudly applaud
the generous impulse which saved the life
of an innocent man, against whom there
is no other accusation than that of being a
Hungarian rebel of 1848. Compliments
of the most hattering kind have been paid
to Captain Ingraham in Smyrna. Sere-
nades, dinners, pic-nics, ETC., were shower
ed upon him and his officers, and an i'm
mense address has been got up there to the
President of the United States, expressive
of their admiration of the transaction,
which is so much in keeping with the
character of the American people.
At this place, as soon as the news came
here, all the Hungarian, Italian and Pol
ish refugees formed en- masse, and proceed
ed with band of music to serenade the
American Legation. "Vive Mr.. Marsh !"
(who returned here on the 9th "Vive
Mr.. Brown !" "Vive the noble American
Republic and the President of the United
States" was responded to by "Vive PItal-
ia p' "Vive PHungaria !" Qtaly and Hun
gary.) An address to Mr.. Marsh is now
being assigned by the refugees, which l
suppose will be sent to the United States.
The officers of the Porte are extremely
gratifled by what was done in Smyrna
1t vindicated theirs as well as the Ameri-
can character, and as Austria is quite as
much despised here as she is in all other
parts of the world, for her brutal persecu-
tions and blood thirstiness after the poor
Hungarians, this episode will not tend to
bo md IS no
for Christian barbarity.
Several telegraphic dispatches had been
received in London, in reference to the
Eastern Question. One dated CONSTANT
nople, July 20, stated that the Porte and
the Representatives of the Great Powers
had accepted the proposition of the Aus
trian Minister. According to this arrange
ment, the fleets of Great Britain and
France are to withdraw from Besika Bay,
whilst the Russian troops evacuate the
Danubian Provinces. Turkey would then
send an Ambassador Extraordinary to
re~open diplomatic negotiations at St. Pc
tersburg.
At Paris and London decline in the
Funds had been caused by an article which
appeared in the Constitutional, contain
ing the assertion that France and England
would not consent to the terms of the ar
which had been proposed at
Constantinople. On the other hand, the
London Times states "the proposal which
has at last been agreed upon at Vienna,
and dispatched to Constantinople, can hard
ly fail to be adopted by the Porte" "Any
scheme,' says the same journal, which
should not protect the interests of the Sui
tan, in his relations with his Christian SUBJ
jects, or insure the immediate evacuation
of his territories by the Russian armies,
would be derisatory" But if full security
be given on these two heads, the Porte will
doubtless adopt the recommendation of the
four great Powers, which will at once be
forwarded for the decision and immediate
or rejection of the Cabinet at
St. Petersburg
UneasineSs was created by the news of
a decree of the Car for fresh levy Of
recruits, throughout the Eastern part of
the Empire, of seven in one thousand.-
The Jews are to give two per one thous-
and, and levy is to commence on the 1st
November. This measure was interpreted
as a warlike one.
A telegraphic despatch in the London
Morning Chronicle announces that Molda-
via had declared itself independent OF the
Porte, and refused to pay tribute. From
Wallachia the same step was expected.
