No. 1,3/6.—VOL. XV.] Wallachia would have nothing to complain of; but, unfortunately, there is another arrangement which will probably be a source of much unhappiness to the inhabitants, and will paralyse all the good to be dune by the administration. Them is to be in each province a corps of Janissaries, commandei by an Aga, who will, it is true, rcoeivc his orders from the Government, but who will be at the same time sub ordinate to the superior chiefs of the Janiasatim, at Constantinople. Under there circumstances, the two Ages will, in reality, govern the two principa lities, in the name of the Governors, as the Ages will dispose of all the forces, and the Governors will have no direct influence over the troops. It appears, however, that there arc still obstacles to this arrange ment. No change has yet taken place in the situ ation of the two principalities, and it is certain that the departure of the Turkish troops is indefinitely adjourned. To all appearance the Porte will issue no definitive orders upon this subject, till the az. rangment spoken of shall have taken place. The Russian troops are still in the same positions, and there is no appearance of their ever quitting , them. OPERATIONS I,V COLOMBIA. : , The following official documents relating to the recapture of Corn, and the operations of the Colom bian army against Porto Cabello, are translated from I :te Venezuelian papers. CARACCAS, Arett 29.—The main body of the Republican army, under the command of Colonel Pinango, took up their march on the Ist inst. and established their quarters in Jame on the 9th.— Pinango, with 400 light infantry and 4 0 ca v a lr y , occupied Curarnebceon the 11th, without Opposition. He returned to Jacma on the 13th, to direct the movements of the rest of his army, who began their march on that day, and were to have entered Coro oa thc 15th. Colonel Vegas, who has been reinforced by 600 volunteers, commanded by Gen. Torellas, has been directed to move onwards to the Pedregal, to divert the attention of the enemy in that direction. Col. Haas with the column of Zulia, will operate in the rear of the enemy, and three other detach ments will spread themselves along the deserts be. tween Carigua and the ports of Attagracia. Morales will move against Colonel Pinango; he will leave a part of his army to cope with Colonel Beres. Should he come towards Coro with [the smallest part' tif his force, thinking that we only intend to divert him from Maracaibo with the 400 men who oocupy Cunistritie, he will most assuredly be cut to 'ems. Sh he move with the main body of troops, thiforps of Zulia and Pedregal will des . any force remaining us a rear guard, and wil oa .his vex. Our operations 4ave been heretofore fortunate, and promiiezemplete The enAirlehaving no vessels to transport his troops into Popo Cabello, will not seek the coast where we are blockading the division in Maracaibo, and we shall possibly txterminate the ferocious enemy • tifttodt 'thinquitltty and happiness. Subsequent to the foregoing, Captain Burns has arrived with despatches, giving an account of the battle fought at Chiparo on the 17th instant, which states that Col. Pinango, with his division, brought the enemy, exceeding 500 men, commanded by Cul. Tello, to close action, and gained a complete victory over them, taking two officers and eighty men pri soners, with 130 muskets, &c. be-hies killing and wounding a very great number. Colonel Tell° and Commandant Arbuthnot, with only twenty men es caped ; they were closely pursued. Our loss was comparatively trifling —This places Coro and La Vela in the possession of the patriots—will • oblige General Morales to come to a general actitet, with every probability of its terminating in our favonr ; it flees Maracaibo from the apprehension of an in vader, and enables Colonel Hems to operate en the vanguard of the enemy the moment it is put in motion SIEGE OT PORTO CABELLO BY THE PATRIOTS. By a bulletin, dated at general quarters in Borbu rata, the 12th of April, it appears that the Patriot Commander.in-Chief was actively engaged in recon noitering the enemy, and adopting the must judici ous plans fir his annoyance. The general was cutting off every possible supple, inve:ting several adjacent towns and positions with his troops, and keeping a naval force on the coast to intercept all communication with the royalists. A second bulletin, dated at the same quarters, on the 28d of April, states, in continuation, that the operations of the patriots are very active, and fa vourable—occasional skirmishing taking place, and considerable numbers of the inhabitants of the coun try and neighbouring villages flying to their lines for protection. FRENCH AND GERMAN PAPERS. PLTERSBUROII, MAY 31.—The Imperial Guards have received orders to return to the capital. It appears, therefore, certain, that the differences be tween our Court and the Porte are arranged, the I ) :rte has yielded the two principal points of our Ultimatum; as to the others our Court has made sow cone, siions. If war had taken place, the cam paigircould nut have been opened before the harvest, and it would have cost immense sums in a devastated country, SEMLIN, JUNE 3.—We have accounts from Bi- toglia to the 23d of May, by the way of Belgrade. Macedonia is still in couaternation, end disturbed. Considerable Ottoman forces are marching towards Larissa. The English agents have succeeded, it is said, in inducing the Suliotes and the Albanians to submit to Chourschid Pa . (lha. The latter will en deavour to effect a junction with the Paeha of Salo nice, and to penetrate with him . by Livadia into the Morea. If miracles. do not take place, the Greeks will be oirereome. It Is also the case in the Marine, that English officers direct the operations of the Ottoman fleet. LEIPZIC, June 8.--.-Accounts froM Constantino ple, Vienna, and other places, continue to affirm that peace will not be interrupted, and yet calm and reflecting men are not inclined to credit these re ports, which take the appearance for the reality, and consider an arrangement with the Turks as easy a matter as with a Christian Power. There are many persons, too, who cannot reconcile themselves to the idea, that a Holy Alliance, said to be established on the fundamental principles of Christianity, can abandon thristians to the fury of the Turks, as this would be wholly at variance with the first duties of the Christian religion. Since the fair, an almost incredible stagnation in Leads has taken place. The • prices of corn continue to fall, and though the pros pect of the next harvest is very good, this expects ' tion maybe disappointed. Nye have not had a drop of ruin for this fortnight past, the sky has been con stantly, with east and north-east winds. The drought is very great, said the summer corn begins to suffer by it. Even the winter corn on high sandy ground begins to turn white. The hot weather has also caused several cases of sudden death. Pena, May s.—The Reis Effendi (Minister for Foreign Afiitirs) is always a Musselman; but this Minister has too much pride to converse in a Euro pean language with the ambotsadorsof foreign pow ers, and it is for this reason that these ambassadors always treat with the chief dragoman of the Porte, who may be considered as the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs. Mr. Aristarchi, who, acting in th's capacity, hail constantly protracted the negocia tions, is a very able and subtle Greek; but It was hoped that means had been leund to interest him personally in the success of the negociatious. Ills dismissal, therefore, was received with regret, and great apprehension was entertained, when it was tound that the new dragoman was a Greek reneged°, who embraced Mahometism 30 . years ago. The first time that the European dragomans con versed wi..h him, he said, " that the atlairs of the Franks, when treated by u Mussulman, would go on much better than by the intervention of a Greek." A few days after, Jahia (this is his name) declared to the dragoman of Lord Ssrangfonl, that he was cletred by the Reis Effendi to open himself without reserve to the English legation, and to make known the final resolution ofthe Porte. The Grand Seignor said he was not desirous of war either with the Muscovites or with any other powers of the West, though the Sublime Porte does not fear any war, and with the aid of the great Prophet, the Mussnl man arms would always triumph in the end. The Porte will therefbre do any thing requisite to avcid a rupture. The good friend of the Porte, the Eng lish ambassador, Las asked of the Reis Effendi un answer to his representations; the minister has asked the orders of the Grand Vizir, and there can be no doubt that this answer is calculated to satisfy the good tkiends of the Porte. On the .26th of Auril this answer of the Reis Eflianli was delivered to the ambassadors of Great Britain and Austria; its contents, however, were nut so satisfactory as had been represented. The dragoman of Lord Strangford hed then another conference of Jahia, who, with great fruukneet, gave all the explanations that were required of hint. It is since this that it is hoped a new Russian legation will soon arrive at Constantinople. BEADY (GALLICIA), JUNE 5 —The last direct accounts from Jassv i - aaounce a new urganizatiuu of the province of Mold civil and military, which was shortly to arrive from Constantinople, and to be introdt4ed into Wallachia as well as Moldavia, by special delegates from the Porte. The superior au thority, it is said, will ha exercised in vial province by a Governor, who is not, however, to make any arrangement of importance Without consulting a council. Under this arrangement, Moldavia and HA MBURG H PAPERS. MUNICH, JUNE 15.—The measures adopted by the Bavarian Government, in imposing very heavy duties on all articles cooing from France, have now been officially published, and take ell et immediately. The addition made to*the duties is on the average 400 per Cent.!' These duties to be levied without regard to the state from which they are imported into the lingdom; only some exceptions will Le made to those neighbouring states which shall adopt similar measures. The transit of articles throu;it Bavaria are to be allowed us heretofore, on payment of the established duties. _ _ CONSTANTINOPLg, MAT 21.—A cry of horror ,via resound throughout Eueope whets the new cruelties ict Scio are made known. All are iitas.ssered. Ev..n the 73 prelates who were detained as hosa,t;c., have been cut to pieces in the fiirt. The generous French Consul, Digeon, is the most to he pitied. fie had gone into the villages end proclaimed the Turki‘lt amnesty, and at the same time pledged himseif fir the Sultan's giving pardon. The inhabitants on this surrendered all Cieir arms, on which the Asiatics fell on 13 villages and executed a general massacre. All fell without defence under the sword of the Turks, who behaved with the most reflood cruelty. The whole island is a sepulchre: the few women and children who were sheltered in the French Con- Notate arc in the deepest misery, Some Greeks still combat in the mountains, but their destruction • is cm.ain. These events have excited such terror her,,, that nobody now ventures to intercede for a Gretk family, fur fear of being included in the same pro scription. SEMLIN. JUNE 3.—Letters from Bitoglia of May 23d have been received at Belgrade, from which it ap, ears that consternation prevails in that part of the country. The Turks arc advancing in great force towards Larissa. The agents of the English tree said to have succeeded in inducing the Sutiots and Albanians to submit to Choorschid Paella, who u ill soon t...i . ect his j anciLni with the l'acha of SalonicLi, to march through Livadia against the Morea. lle cisive events may therefore soon be espeeed in these parts. Nothing but a miracle can x;:ve the Greek•:, as affairs now stand. It is uffi:ined ei l at the opera tions of the-Turks, b.)th by sea and land, are directed by English officers, and that they have promised en tirely to quell the insurrection of the Grceks before the termination of the negotiations with Russia.
