DUTCH MAIL.  CONSTANTINOPLE, DECEMBER :N. Ie was ou the 13th inst. that the impatience of the • Sultan and the whole nation was satisfied. The brig of the Pacha of Egypt, which had on board the leader of the filrmidable sects of the Wechabites, Abdallah, his Multi, and his Treasurer, together with the treasures .plundeted by the Wechabites.from the • Temple at Mecca, and now recovered, arrived on that day in the port of this city; The Sultan was immediately informed of it, and the following day the prisoners, loaded with chains, were led through several streets of Constantinople, and hrought before the Divan. After some questions had been put to them, and their answers noted down, they were sent to the house of Mehmed Ali Pacha, where they remained for the night. But the Sultan was so incensed at this, that he caused them to be thrown the next day into the lowest dungeon of the Bostangi Pacha : there they remained till the 17th, in rigorous confinement. On this the Sultan, followed by a great multitude of people, repaired in •solemn procession to the Eski Serai (Old Seraglio), to receive in this Palace the congratulations of the great men on the victory over the \Vechabites. After the Grand Vizier, the High Admiral, and the Chief of the Scribes or gists, had bowed respectfully at the foot of the throne, the criminal Abdallah, with his Mufti and Treasurer, were brought in, chained, by the Chief of the Janissaries. —The incensed Monarch looked angrily at them, caused the Tartai s, who had brought them hither, to be invested with s able pellisses, in their presence, and hereupon the Schaich of the Islam announced to them their sentence of death, for the execution of which the Sultan gave a sign. Immediately hereupon the chief Abdallah was beheaded at the gate of the Imperial Palace, his Mufti opposite the gate of the Visier, and his Measurer in the Palace of the Burnt Pillar. Their bodies and heads remained exposed to view three days, but no tafta or table announcing their crime was fastened to them, as is usually done.- It is said that a seal was found upon Abdallah Bensund, which, besides the history of his name, bore on it the title of Caliph. On the same day arrived two Tartars of the Pacha of Damascus, with the happy intelligence that the Pilgrims of Mecca had safely passed the desart, and accomplished their journey. The Tartars brought several vessels, filled with the water from the sacred Spring Zemzem, and other presents from the holy city. The Porte is constantly employed in the most active measures to ensure tranquillity and security in this city. The formidable corps of the Janissaries now receives punishments for its numerous mutinies. One of its first officers has lately been banished to Cyprus, and two others strangled in the castles on the Bosphorus. Four other officers, convicted of robbery and murder, have had the same fate. Private accounts from Tripoli say that the Governor of Fezzan had arrived there by sea with a rich cargo of Negro slaves,• elephants' teeth, ostrich feathers, &c. worth 300,000 heavy piastres. It is said to belong principally to the Dey. However the continued traffic in slaves is to be lamented, which even some Christian Powers have not yet abandoned, it is consolatory to learn that the Dey of Tripoli has sent out no cruizers since last summer, and seems inclined to turn his attention to agriculture.
