ALI PACIIA.  SEMLIN, MAncn 24,—Authentic accounts have been at length received respecting the tragical end of Ali Pacha. The following are the particulars of this remarkable event, which are derived from good authority, but differ in some respects from the accounts said to have been officially published by the Porte, in Belgrade and Constantinople. We see from them that the cunning Ali was indeed deceived by the Turks, but also, that from a revived sense of the religious feelings of his youth, he wished his treasures to be in the hands of the MuSsulmen, rather than of the Greeks. The Suliots and Albanese had long since promised him assistance and deliverance from the besiegers, if he would share his treasure' with them : but Ali, who still preserved in his heart a secret inclination. towards the adherents of his own religion, thought of reconciling- himself, unperceived by the Greeks, in which his wifeWasiiikia, who had been gained over by Courschid Pacha some months before, promised to assist him. The Suliots and Albanese, it is well known, concluded an agreement with Chourschid Pacha in the month of January, who promised them as a reward of their desertion of Ali a part of his treasures. They were induced to this by the proofs of Ali's perfidy; but from this moment Ali was irretrievably ruined, and nothing remained for him but either to surrender by capitulation or to kill himself. The cunning Wasilikia prevailed upon him to enter intoa negociation with Chourschid, the result of which was that Chourschid swore on the Koran, and by his beard, in case AU surrendered to spare his life. Ali fell into the snare and surrrendered to his adversary, who treated him in a friendly manner, and suffered hi n quietly to retire into a summer palace, in the Lake of Joannina. Several days after Mehmet Pacha, the second commander of the Turkish army, probably secretly commissioned by Chourschid, visited Ali here, and endeavoured by every means he could devise to provoke the anger of the old tyrant. He abused him as a traitor to Islamism, spat in his face, and when Ali attempted to resist, he stabbed him under the protection of 26 Turks, who rushed into the room on a signal being given, and then murdered Ali's attendants.— Only his wife, Wasilikia, was spared. Thus the Turks, by their usual tactics, have rid themselves of this monster, whom they could never conquer in the field ; but we know, too, that Ali's spirit was bowed by age (he was 84 years old), otherwise he would have been aware of the snare laid for him, for the annals of tyrants can produce no monster equal to him in cunning,artifice, or cruelty. These circumstances explain, too, the contradictions in the accounts first published respecting Ali's death. It is pretty certain that Chourschid, immediately after the surrender of his adversary by capitulation, gave orders to hasten his assassination, and made use of Mehmet Pacha for this purpose, in order not to violate the letter of the oath he had taken. Hence Chourschid caused the news of A li's ekecution to be spread at the same time with that of his surrender, and Tartars hastened to all parts of the empire with the anticipated information.  In the action fought at Mongrade, East Indies, on the 21st Oct., 1821, betwixt a detachment of the 4th Light Cavalry, under Major RIDaE, and a numerous body of native troops, commanded by the Manharao in person, victory, as usual, declared for the British ; and among the gallatit young officers whose conduct on the field attracted tile notice of the Commanding Officer, we are happy to see mentioned in the Ga:ctle the name of Lieutenant JAMES GLENCAIRN BURNS, a native of this county, and youngest son of the Poet. Those who take an interest i❑ the family of the Bard, will be pleased to learn this fact, and the more so when we assure them that Mr. BURNS, who is as good as he is brave, has ever discharged the duties of a son and a brother, in a manner that entitles him to the warmest regards of every real-hearted Scotsman.—(Dumfiics Courier.)
