under Good Middling. AS NECESSARY con-
sequence, prices are very irregular, and it will
be seen by our quotations below they have
wide range. For grades ranging from Good
Middling up there is a fair demand, and hold /

ANN BEY NOT AN lMPosroR.--The fol.
lowing letter appears in The New York Eve
ming PosE &E HE tot
New YoRK, June Ia, 1858.
To the Editors of Me Evening Post:
SlRs:-A report has appeared in several
papers that Amin Bey, who visited the Uni
led Sta,es a few months since as an agent OF
the Turkish Sultan, was an imposlor. The
following statement may place the matter in
u better light, On my last voyage 10 the
Mediterranean. received letter from the
minister resident (Mr. Marsh) a, Constant,
nople, informing me that he had applied 10
the Sublime Porte 10 send an agen, of the
Turkish government TO the United States,
for The purpose Of visiting The dock, navy
yards, and arsenals, and 10 gain other intor-
nation in relation to this country; and that
he (Mr. Marsh) had pledged TO the Turkish
government a free passage for him, Amin
Bey) and that If refused him a passage 1t
would place the legation in very delicate
position. "He added: that Amin Bey, if
senlNwould meet me nj Spezza.' At the re-
quest of Mr.. Marsh, gave Amin Bey q
passage to tho United States. Previous 10
his arrival, Mr.. Webster, then Secretary OF
State, applied 10 Congress for $40 900 TO &C.
fray Amin Bey's expenses while in the Uni
ted States; which sum was appropriated. -
Abou, $500 was paid for this purpose, and
the remoirder has since been returned 10 the
treasury. On the return Of Amin Bey TO
Conslan,inoplc, his rank was increased. and
he was placed in charge Of the naval school
al Princess Islands, in the sea Of Marmona.
The young man llasSan who came with him,
is a lieutenant, commanding brig in the
Turkish navy.
No ono can for moment suppose that
Mr. Marsh, imposed upon his own govern
menl for uny purpose whatever. 1t is well
known, no mater which side Of the political
questions Of The day he may have adopted,
,hu, he is a highminded gentleman. and has
q reputation TO preserve, and that he would
take some pains 10 do so. He is now absent
from tho country, and as Amin Bey came
in The ship commanded, give statement
Of the facts relating 10 him which have pass
ed under my notice, and with which am
acquainted. Tho gentleman who has been
censured by the papers for circulating The
report of Amin Bey being an impostor, had
no hand or agency in the muner bu. 10 obey
the minister resilient. This gentleman is
MIR, Brown, a nephew Of Commodore Por'
ter, who devoted ten yeats Of his life 10 The
acquisition of the Turkish language. He
has been the interpreter of the legation for
many years, and Amin Bey was placed by
Mr.. Webster undsr his charge in the Unicd
States. Authentic information was received
by Messrs Webster and Cass Of Amin Bey'S
position, from source no, 10 be doubted by
any one; and no doub. the files of tho State
Department, have either the originals or cop
les Of the documents.
Yours. with respect,
W. D. PORTER, U. S. N.
