PARIS, JULY 30.—We have received letters from Salonica of the 26th of June. The neighbouring villages ware for the most part in a state of com plete insurrection, in consequence of the cruelties committed by the Pacha.

FRANKFORT, JULY 25.—When intelligence of the death of Buonaparte reached Baden, Prince Eu gene and the Duchess Dowager Stephanie of Baden caused the invitations which they had issued for that day to be countermanded, and immediately put on mourning., The King of Bavaria, who was at Baden at the time, observed the most profbund si lence on the subject.

(Extract from a private letter.) —The Dey is causing several of his ships of war to be armed in all baste. They are thought to be destined to act in concert with the Turks against the Greeks of the Archipelago. We had fluttered ourselves that we should not have experienced the terrible conflict now raging m Turkey, because at Tunis the number of the Greeks is very small; they do not exceed 400, and in this number may be in cluded those who do not usually reside in this coun try, but are only occasional visiters, many of whom are also protected by the European Consulates, But as the news arrived here from different parts of Turkey where the insurrection of the Greeks had broken out, the local Government began to manifest a hostile disposition against the unhappy Greeks, and the populace, who arc always ready to proceed to the greatest excesses by the hope of the slightest plunder, already utter the moat atrocious menaces against all Christians in general. Several Greeks have been already ill-treated and imprisoned by or der of the Dey; some of these were under the pro tection of the Consuls of England and France, Who lost no time in demanding their liberation and in interceding fiur the other victim:. Their conduct in this particular is governed not only by humanity, but by a hope of preventing a catastrophe which would be equally fatal to all Christians alike. Their exer tions hitherto have been crowned with success. commerce, and made provisions very dear. It is said in a German paper that Prince Alex. Ypsilanti is a prisoner iu the Austrian fortress of Curlsburg, but here we have no account whatever of this chief. Accounts from Petersburgh, which we have re ceived by express that the Emperor Alexander has given a categorical answer to the complaints of the Ottoman Porte against Baron Strogonoff, We are ignorant of the entire contents; but are assured the Emperor requires complete satisfaction tor the in sults committed against his ambassador, and that in the apace of eight days- If it not be given, the ambassador has received orders to leave Constantino ple, and the Russian troops assembled on the Pruth will enter Moldavia. All the Generals, it is said, have received sealed orders, which they are not to open till a certain day. It is doubtful whether the Grand Seignor, Mahnud, has magician power over the people and the fanatical. jammissaries to give the satisfaction, and a war appears to be the inevitable consequence. But the situation of M. de Strogonoff would become very critical. The ftrst letters from Odessa will afford us more information. Intelligence from Walachia announces that the chief of the insurgents, Fordaki, has succeeded in rallying 5,000 of the dispersed Greeks ; that he had surprised a struggling party of the Turks who were traversing and pillagingle country, and killed a great many of them. The Greeks fought with the greatest courage, to avenge their brethren. The Turks retreated on Bucharest. We have a detailed account of the defeat aid de- SKYRNA, JUNE 16.—The three officers of the Turkish marine, whom the Porte had sent to the three Barbary Regencies to summon them to unite their maritime forces with the Ottoman fleet, em barked here in the early part of this month. struction of the Sacred Legion, which merits a place in history. When the Turks advanced in great force against the legion, a nephew of the assassinated Patriarch (Gregory), who had joined them from a German university, advanced before the ranks, and exhorted his companions to prove they were not Neapolitan, that they fought for a sacred cause, that they were intrusted with the honour of Greece, and full of the glorious recollection of their ances tors. The young men answered with shouts of joy, and threw themselves into the ranks of the enemy, where every one of them, without exception, met his fate. Those who did not full by the hands of the enemy put themselves to death, to escape the torments which awaited them in the dungeons of the Turks. BERLIN, JULY 21.—The official Gazelle contains the following article, under the head of Odessa, July 3.—" In the morning of the day before yester day the Creeks who took refuge here from Constan tinople, and who were so kindly received, committed the greatest excesses. Those men, who at Constan tinople, allowed themselves to be sacrificed like lambs, had here displayed their bravery by ill treat ing in the most cruel and most unworthy manner some peaceful Jews in the streets, in their houses, and even in the synagogue. The bankers had their desks forced, their money carried off, and their howes pillaged, and those who offered any resistance were most cruelly ill-treated. All the windows of the synagogue have been broken, the books torn to pieces, and the poor box rubbed. Four Jews have died of the ill-treatment they underwent, and a still greater numlaave Leen mortally injured. Ihe women and chllWren have not been spared: the eyes of one child have been forced out, R an aged Jew Lad his beard forcibly torn by the r A i ter much exertion the police has at lengths 'led in restor ing orders, and several Greeks hay .11 arrested. " The Turkish government continues to purchase all the cargoes of grain that arrive at Constantinople, fur which it pays all exceeding good price." CORFU, JUNE 26.—During the night of the 141 h of May the Turks took 1w assault the fortress of which Ali Paella, of Janina, was in possession, the isle, and put the whole garrison to the sword. By an order, dated the la of Julie, Ali Bey, who commands the Turkish !quadron in the passages of HA MBURGII l' AP 4125, I. ENO)/ AN AUTHENTIC COMMUNICATION Isom CONSTAN • TINOPLN, JUNE NN. V e ry urgent remonstrances have been made to the Ottoman Porte by all the great European Powers, respecting its severe and cruel conduct towards the Greeks, and the attitude it seems disposed to assume towards Russia, which is the intimate ally of A ustria, Prussia, England, and Hranee. Upon all these re monstrances the Reis Effendi expressed himself to all the ambassadors with the greatest composure and and apparent impartiality, but to the English am lii,b.qtdor with a certain frankness and friendship., The Porte denies that the punishment inflicted on several of the Greek clergy proceeds from a prosecu tion towards the Christian religion, or the Greek nation:, relatively to the first point, it appeals to the protection %Ada the Catholics and Armenians enjoy, and to the fact, that. the free and public c".ercisc of the Greek worship at Constantinople has nut heen fur a moment interrupted. (From this it should seem as if the reports of the destruction of the Greek churches were false. The sacrilege committed on some village churches have b,cn severely punished. It affirms, that what was done to the Patriarch would have been dune to the Mufti, if he had been guiltof similar crimes; that his perfidy was irlcon testably proved by eleven letters written by him to the Marco, which are in the hands of the Porte (they were not shown); that his being executed at Easter wit% !lot the effect of design, but because the proofs of hia treason had not been •obtained till the preced ing evening: that the Porte, for its own security, w,ts compelled to use inexorable severity ; but that it had not caused a single individual to he executed, of whose guilt it had not the most incontrovertible -proofs. Finallf, that the Sultan acted us an itu/e -pendent nion;irch, who had to as unlit lot his actions to God atone. To Lord Strangfbrd the Reis Effendi gave the assurance that the Porte endeavoured to avoid every thing that could lead to a war with Russia, because it was very sensible that, as it was unable to repress the rebels, it was not in a condition to act alone against that power, and well knew that, in the pre sent state of harmony between all the European cabinets, no state could draw a sword in its defence. i.e . . ?boutlL the misunderstandings were consequences of the conduct of Baron Strogonoff, and that it would apply directly to the magnanimous Emperor Alex ander himself: (Baron Strogonoff is well kno sn to be a man of distinguished education, polished man. ners, and noble character.) LETTER FROM cossTawrixori,c, JUNE " The English and French ambassadors at Con stantinople have desired the commanders of the squadrons of their respective nations in the Archi pelago to act hostilely towards the Greeks, if they should attempt to force the entrance of the harbour of Smyrna; and the same against the Turks, if they should attempt to hinder the Franks from removing with their families and property." CONSTANTINOPLE, JUNE 28.—1 t was wished to induce the Janissaries to choose a corps from among themselves, to be sent to the Morea fur the defence of the Mahometan religion. Their representatives not only refused this, but declared that their c..n stituents had changed their minds respecting the new military regulations to which they had con. sented in May, and that all must remain on its old footing In a Divan held on the 20th at the Captain Pa elm's, it was resolved to remove Kialla Bcy, the commander of the Turkish fleet. Kasa Ali, the commander of the port of Constantinople, nas al: pointed his successor. It was also resolved to rein &me the squadron in the Archipelago with six men of war and eight gun-boats, and to obtain marines by the offer of great bounties. HERMAN STA UT, JULY 14 —The following repre sentation, signed by the principal inhabitants of many towns and districts of Walachia, addressed to the Russian Consul, from Bucharest, who is now bere, has just been received " We, inhabitants of the Walachian districts of Dchli,&c. relying with entire confidence on existing treaties, and on the patronage of Russia, had re mained quiet spectators of events, and followed our , domestic affairs, when our lands were suddenly in. vatted and plundered by the Turks, our houses and our churches burnt, and what is much more horrible, our priests and part of their flock beheaded, wily that a larger number of Christian heads might be , sent to the Turkish Sultan, as proof of their wicked deeds, and of a conspiracy which we never thought of. Our loss amounts to millions, and we are irre trievably ruined. We therefore desire you to send our well-founded remonstrance to our august patron, that he may afford us succour, and preserve us against total di.struction." The village of K,,stheim (in the Prussian provinces of the Rhine), which was laid waste and burnt se. vend times iu the course of the war, 'obtained an exemption from taxes, in the year 1809, from Na poleon.
