VIENNA. OCTOBER 9. It is asserted that it is in pursuance of formal demands addressed Ly the Reis-Effendi to our  Internuucio at Coninantinople, and transmitted by the latter to our Court, that various measures iu favour of the Turk. have been adopted. These measures are not confined to the prohibition of the  exportation of arms, warlike stores, horses, &c. to those Turkish provinces where the Greeks are in arms ; but they extend also to all persons, of any nation whatever, who entertain a design of passing through the Austrian dominions to Greece. It is supposed that those persons intend to enter into the ranks of the Hellenists, and fight against their oppressors. Even travellers, who are strangers to the affair, are included in the measure, and permission will not be granted to embark far those countries where Greek corps are to be found. Persons who wish to go to Moldavia, Wallachia, or Sepia, are treated in the same manner ; they are loM allowed to pass the frontier. The same vigilonce is also extended to the Austrian provinces in Italy. It is said that many travellers who had arrived at Trieste and Fiume have been obliged to return, though they were furnished with regular passports. The saute system has been adopted in some other of the Italian States, as also in the Roman doininions and the kingdom of Naples. Private letters from Leghorn announce, in effect, that permission will not be given to persons to embark who design to go to the Mores, to Etulia, or the islands in the Archipelago. Several young foreigners are now here who were anxious to proceed to Greece by the route of Trieste, but they have not been able to procure passports, noo Isom they money enough to carry them home. Some foreign officers who were endeavouring to raise recruits for Greece, have been conveyed to the frontiers. Notwithstanding the hatti-scheriff of the Grand Signior prohibiting the Turks from committing any species of violence, they continue to carry off every thing they can lay hold of. They pillaged the country-house of • Moldavian boyard very re• cently, and having forced open the doors of a church, took away all the property which had been placed there in, the boyard for security. It is said they olair;ittacked some convents, and that they murdera the old people and carried off the young. oDESsA. sitt7sllasa 24. Letters from St. Petersburgh repeat the rumour which has been in circulation in that capital, that our Cabinet has declined the proposition of Austria and England relative to a Congress far the purpose of deliberating on the affairs of Turkey. Private accounts from Hanover, given in another part of our Paper, state, that the KING remained confined to his apartment up to the 17th inclusive. but that the 'attack of gout under which he laboured was a slightone, and his MAJUTT expected to be able to set out on this day on his return to England. Sir ROSIMI WILSoIt has communicated to thg Electors of fittlthwark copies of letters which •MU have recently.hm" between the gallant Knight and Lord SIIIIIOUTII relative to certain charge, which Sir Rouser W mon understands have beet urged against him. These, with a memoranda ruff • conversation between Sir RoasaT WILSON and Sir R. Blanks upon the subject of one of them, will be found in another part of our Paper. We entreat the particular attention of our readers to these letters. They will be found to mark in an emphatic manner the temper and spirit that have been at work in conducting the inquisitorial proceedings against Sir RollilitT
