Whits, Esq. ofNow York. The steady and liberal patronage which ha9 hitherto been received by the Georgian, and which has'been tho more grateful because rendered freely, and without solicitation on our part, demands our sincere acknow ledgments. As tho only anil proper return in our pow er, it has ever been our aim, regardless of expense, not alono to render our publication worthy of its patrons by neatness in its typographical embellishments ; but by the exercise of an industry which has never tired, to tender it tho medium ofthc earliest and most correct in telligence, to the commercial community, and l<v the support of what we believe to ho correct political doc trines, to advance the true interests of our native state, and the general prosperity of uur happy country. A reference to the course wo havo hitherto pursued, is perhaps unnecessary. It has been open to all, and is Known to all. That it should havo bcun acceptable to every one, was not to have been expected—such a belief would assume an infallibility of judgment on our part, to which we lay no claim, u pliability on tho part of our renders, arguing tho nhsonco of all opinion, which wo cannot admit, or a contempt fur ours, which w o are still more unwilling to acknowledge. Of this, howoAvr, we are convinced, that in urging our senti ments, when necessary, with tho candor ami moderation which wo are induced to believe are the characteristics of honest conviction, our motives have never been cpies- tioned—and however unimportant may have been our services, limy have been rendered, without favor, fear or affection, or the hope of any rowanl, save that of the coiwciousucrs of good intention*. Wo trust our readers will pardon us, however, if wo remind them of one feature in our editorial career, com ing home at the time "to their business and bosoms.'’ When ourcity was at its lowest depression, (in 1324-5,) when every uxertion in the power of capital and cntcr- pr;o was made to divert its trade from our very door.*, when tho spirits of our citi.-.cns were sinking, and those of our nontoctitors proportionally rising in the scale, the Georgian stemmed the tide, and although it may not havo turned the current, labored faithfully (perhaps in some degreo successfully,) to restore the prosperity which was well nigh being swept front us forever, lint enough! tlto egotism to the perpetration of which we have been tod, we trust will tiritl an apology in the desire wiiich actuates us to exhibit at least some claim to the good opinion and support, which has so far attended our efforts in an arduous and sometimes thankless voca tion, which has bgbteuc.l our labor by day, and cheered our weary vigils when our midnight lamp has flickered in its socket. We havo said more of the past, than at setting out, we intended—of the future we shall say little—ho who is liberal in promises is seldom prodigal in per formance ; and we ahull llirrcforo only add, that our ef forts will be unremitting, to maintain the character we havo sought with ceaseless solicitude, in tho course hitherto pursued. It is the intention of one ofthc Edi- tors to attend (ho ensuing session of tho State Legisla ture, specially for the purposo of communicating to our resist*, at tliu tflulleat nuimont, informaiimi of ■neb pur itans of tho deliberations of that body, as may be of in terest to them; and no exertions will ho spared to ren- «fcr our columns valuable to tlm man of business, the po litician and the general reader. In our Nows Boom will always he found tho latest papers from all parts of the Union, cither by regular $ours«ofMail,orby vessel, and upon our Bulletin any Intelligence of interest received by extra sheet or otlmr- Vise, with a report of arrivals at this port as soon received. The advertising patronage of n newspaper is that upon which it is principally dependent fur support, nmJ which of course, wcaro most anxious to sccutc. Tho Georgian has for many years received a large proportion of these agreeable and Interesting articles of mer cantile intelligence ; and ns it is tho evident interest pf every individual when.paying for tho insertion of hut advertisement to secure the most extensive cur rency to it,that being the valuo received for his expendi ture, it is duo both to out reives and our friends to snv, that our circulation is moro extensive than any daily publication in this State, anti that our new type which comprises n handsome assortment ofthc ornamen tal, us well as tho plain material, will enable us to dis play their favors to the best advantage. Thu WushiiigUm Telegraph, announcing' ll>o recog nition by tho President, of M. d’Azambuga, as Charge d’Affaires of tho King of Portugal (Don JVIiguel) re marks— “This gentleman has now been aomo months in tho United States, and by his intelligence and amlabto do- pertinent, bus contributed to prevent the unfavorable im pressions which tho prejudiced statements of tho Eng lish prints worn calculated tomnko upon our public func tionaries relative to tho state ofafiiut* in Portugal, and of the King his Sovereign in particular,’* Wo confess we can perceive tv3 little reason for this explanatory paragraph as fur tho exception taken to this measure by some of those diametrically opposed to to tho Telegraph in every thing. But tho maxim ofthc British Constitution, that tho King can do no wrong, is exactly reversed by a portion of tho print.*, in this coun try, which appear u> consider that the government can do no right. Whatever may be the churactor ofthc "statements of the English prints relative to tho state of affair* in Portugal,’’ tho only enquiry on the part o our government, in tho present case i*, whether or tn*} Don Miguel is de Jacto tlio King of Portugal. That ho is so, caunut admit of a doubt, and tho recognition Og his agent must follow. Consistently with Uie truo policy of our government, to avoid all interference in the quar rels of foreign powers, as well os in compliance with the laws of nation*, no other course could bo pursued—th u fuct of actual sovereignty established, wo havo no right logo into an examination of Don Miguel’s claims. A contrary detvnnhuition, a moment’s reflection will show, would enlist us on tho opposite side of the question, anil thus at onco commit our neutrality. Should tho present sovereign bo dethroned by tho people, (und from all the facts in our possession, there is no proof to show ho is not tho choico of die majority) it would Is; equally the luty uf the president to recognize thiir ollioial agent, or that ofDon Pedro in tho event ofhis recovering possess ion of the crotvn of Portugal, of wiiich there is no pros pect. Thu memhers ofthc Holy Alliance, have assu med the right to interfere in tho iutcrnul dissentions of sovereign nation*, but those who remember tho oppo- Irium heaped upon them and justly too, on this account, can hardly expect or hope that our government, by re jecting tho ministers of an indcpcndnnt power, because that power may not be considered ilegittmatn,according to the doctrines ofthc "Divine Right,” should virtually follow their example, and adopt tho causo of one who »* considered so legitimate. Tho King of Brazil will no douht still lie represented by his minister at our govern ment, but until he furnishes evidence ofhis J»cing King of Portugal, iu fuct as well as right, thu accredited a- gnut of Don Miguol has t!:e right to claim an acknowl edgement as tho representative of a sovereign power. The Government of Great Britain, it appears by our late intelligence, lias recognized Dun Miguel by ,tho permission given to the Portuguese authorities to search British vessels, and by the appointment of a new Con sul lor Lisbon. Otn Formi.n Ro. at ion*.—The Washington Tele graph has the following passage on tho subject of our relations with France and England, which havo uow as sumed a highly interesting aspect "In relation to Franco, instructions havo been given to our Minister to leave no effort unemployed hy which redress may bo obtuinnd for the spoliations on our com merce. In relation to England, the President is earnest ly desirous, and has sincerely undertaken so to arrange tho difficulties between that government and ours, us maybe mutually agreeable and advantageous, and lay the foundation of lasting concord between them.” More Gold.—It is said to bo ascertained that the common Quart* which in found in nhundanen in and u- bout Athens, contains particles ofthis precious metal.— Several grains havo recently been found by individuals. The Athenian in cummunicuiiiig tho fuel, say.*,—"Wu all expect to be rich by ami by, and jnrhapi havo enough to do our squirril hunting and ducking with tho ensuing winter.” We hope sowith all our heart, but wo hopo at tho same timu that tho moro regular pursuits of agri cultural industry will not bo deserted in tho search 0f tho "root of all evil,” ulthongh it may bring with it the means of enjoy ing the sport ofsquirrcl hunting und duck ing. The Gold Mania, it is added, of course, rages to a considerable extent. We have just seen a very beautiful specimen of tho precious metal from I labor sham County, in onu piece weighing about 13 dwts. and aro informed that tho searchers arc in tho full lido of successful experiment, in that region. jCjP’Mr. t;»or.r.H RonMiTsnv, formerly Editor of tho Georgian, has boon since February last, and will continue to be associated in its publication. "LArAvtTTE in Amwica.’*—Jfessn. Carviu havo received M. Lk VAisrim’a book on Gen. Lafayette’^ viiifto the United States, If has lately appeared in Paris, and forms two thick volumes, containing a regu lar account of Lafayette’s voyage, his reception and progress through tho country, with historical sketches of some ortho diflbrent districts ha visited, and many references toovents and circumstanccs of the revolution. As tho author is a man of intelligence and observation, and was (careful to’mako notes of what ho saw whilo a companion ofthc General, his work will, no doubt, bo read with interest. Tho Columbia State Gazetto, of tho 10th inst. says— "The Cotton crop throughout the State has been consi derably injured hy tho lato drought, which caused it to open rapidly: and wo presume it will nil lo gathered very early. It is coming in very fust, and is soiling from 8 to 9 cents.” Tho Supremo Government of Mexico has appointed to tho .office of Minister of thu Republic to Ids llritaiiic Majesty, Senor Don Manuel EmvAun’GonosTizA, who is at a present Minister to his Mnjesty tho King of Urn Netherlands. It has also appointed as successor to the latter, Don Sebastian Mercado, now acting ns Secretory to our Legution'to tho United States. Mr. Mercado is now a resident of Washington. A labored articlo in defonco of Mr. Clay, appeared some timu since in tho Monthly Magazine, published in Boston, which was attribted to .Mr. Webster. Tho assertion has been denied hy tho friends of that gentle man in Massachusetts, but tho last Boston Statesman rc-nsscrts tho fuct, and adds " if ho dare deny this as sertion, wo will provo it to bo true.” Tho hunorary degreo of Doctor of Laws, was\ con ferred on tho Hon. John M. Bkuuu.n, at the lato com mencement or Princoton College. • It is stated that Sir John Culbournc is to ho appoin ted Lieutenant Governor of Nova Scotia, vice Sir fer- egrinu Maitland, who is obliged to return to Englanl iu consequence ol’ill health 5 and that Sir Thomas Arbtth- nnt will succeed to tho government of Upper Canada— Tho U. C. Herald states thut Sir Peregrine lies h a hopeless stato in consequence of the bursting of a bbod vessel. Thu St. Augustine Herald of thc.23d ult. states that tho crop of Florida Oranges will not be so largo this year as lust, but that thu quality will be quito ns good. In thu Virginia Convention on tho 9th instant, Mr. Tazewem. offered a substitute*to the resolutions of the Committee of twenty-four, referring tho whole Consti tution to a committee of thu whole, which was negatived. The resolutions of that C oiiunittcc, referring tho various subjects of amendment of tho Constitution, and tho' hill of rights, to separate Committees, were then passed. Mr. Van JH'iu.N Is on a' visit to Richmond, which with the accustomed charily’oftho National/Journal, is attributed in thuFamiablo print, to views connected with tho Presidency. Commodores llonr.r.n*, Wariunuton, and Patthi- son, Navy Commissioners, havo returned to Washing ton, from thuir late lour lo tho north. General Gaines and family have also arrived at Washington.

The printers of New York havo recently adopted sev eral reforms, which appear to have been called for.— The first of these is tlio utter "proscription” of tho mul titudinous and monstrous cut*, like nothing "in thu hea vens aitove, nor imho earth beneath, nor iu the sea, nor in the dry land,” and fit for nothing but tlio amusement of children, and to disfigure their columns. The second is a resolution not to advertise for intelligence offices,some of the keepers of which havo been "brotigh t to taw” by tlio arm of tho law for impositions practised upon the stranger and the unwary 5 and last, not least in the inarch of improvement they pledge themselves to make rc|»orl to the Secretary of delinquent subscribers and advertisers, and not to recoivo any such as subscri bers, nor advertise for them, unless they pay half yearly, n advance. However frequent and violent aro tho printers of Now York in their political squabbles, they show an oxatnplo to those of all the world iu thuir union, wherever a common benefit is to he attained hy it, which it is to bo regretted Ih not moro frequently followed ulsowhorc. Cotton.—It appears from tho Tullah.issoo paper, dated tho Gth inst, that tho caterpillar had occasioned luss injury thin had been apprehended a few weeks be fore, Tho extent of damage that has been sustained, was in the ease of a gentleman, who hud a field of 300 ncrcs, from which lie will not mako moro than half a cropOn other plantations in that vicinity, nono was experienced ; or, if any at all, in so trifling a degree, that it will not bo felt. From tho Magnolia paper we learn that tho Caterpil lar is still making its ravages among the Cotton on ma ny of the plantations eastward of that place. A gen tleman iu an hour, gathered three bushels of the devour ing animat. This unfavorable circumstanco, excepted, the appearance of the crops is highly promising. Cano is still doing well and corn very abundant. N f;w On 1. »:a ns,—Respecting tho health of this City, the Louisiana Advertiser spenks doulitingly. For som, time previous to dm 22ml ultimo, tho weather had been c«io| and pleasant, with orctndoiinl shower* which pro duced a change in tho atnioMphern. The number of death* for tho week did not average moro than 8 or 9 a day; hut this reduction is attributed by tlio Editor, ra ther to tho want of subjects to the r podeniir, than to tho malignancy of tlio disease itself. Strangers and other persons not perfectly acclimatized were therefore advi sed not to return too early. 'Vo owe many thanks to tlio Almighty Giver nfovory good, that wo have not occasion to address this lan guage lo any ofthoso persons who havo any concern in or connexion with tfuvanriali. Tin: Muxican Invasion.—A letter receiv ed nt New Orleans from Havana,gives intelli gence ot'tlie return nt* a part of tlio Spanish wpmdron and transports from Tumpico. An additional number of troops, to reinforce Bar- rndas* army at Tampico, was requested of the Governor General of Cube, which he refused to furnish; alleging the limited number of regular troops already in the Island, ns scarce ly adequate to its defence, und that a further reduction must inevitably endanger its safety, There were about 350 black soldiers, howev er, which he offered; (thinking thorn, no doubt, moro secure under tho command of Burradas than tlio authorities of Cuba;) but. these, when railed upon peremptorily refused to go. Tims, wo mny conclude, bus'burst tho bubble of tho far famed invasion of Mexico— at. least tho indifference exhibited by Gov. (inn. Vivos scorns to imply that his hopes of tho expedition aro expiring: and that like a sagacious politician, with inoro prudence t han his master, ho thinks it better to secure that ho already holds, than to risk his strength in n fruitless attempt at a conquest, which must ultimately be attended witli disgraco und ruin.” By tho brig Bovan, at arrived at Philadol- hitt, from Vera Cruz, t lio editor of the Na tional Gazette hns received verbal information that a guard was stationed around tho resi. donee of Mr. Poinsett, to protect his person. Ho was sufo and tranquil on tho 22d August. Tho editor has received a file of tho Bulletin Official, published iu tho Mexinun capital, to tlio 21st August inclusive. Tho Bulletin of tlio 17th August, contains Santa Anna’s first despatch, in which ho pledges himself to des troy tho invaders or perish in tho attempt.— Tho Supremo Government was organizing two armies of reserve ; und had decreed a forced loan of#2,818,113,to ho nsHCssod upon tlie several states and applied exclusively to tho exigencies of tho present war. It was ascertained that many of thn invad ing troops were disposed to desert to tho Mex icans, hut deterred by tho apprehension of falling undur tho law that expels all SpuninrdH from tho soil. According to tho Mexican of ficial reports, tho number oftlio hostile force wns five t housand, ns tho vanguard, to ho fol lowed quickly hy a second expedition of tho same amount, and finally hy another body of ten thousand, who wero to 00 directed against Vera Cruz. Perhaps this exaggeration was intentional, with tho purposo of rousing the Mexicans, to greater efforts. They do not seem, howevor, to have needed any other stinv uliw than their love of independence. LATEST FROM ENGLAND. By thu arrival lust night of tho ship Georgia, Capt. Vaunum, Liverpool dates to tho 7th September, and London to tho 5th, both inclusive, aro received. Wo aro indebted to Messrs. A. Low & Co. for papers to tho Above date, and to a friend on hoard, for a Glas gow paper oftlio 31st August, and also a lilo of Loudon papers. Tho report of tho capture or Const antinoplo is not confirmed. Thoreportud hattlu nt Kirk-Killissn is sta ted to have been nu invention. Tiio Russian army re mained at A idos ; but Gen. Diobitsch was, it is said preparing for a forward movement toward* Adrianople, Tho next advices wero expected to bring intelligence o* the decisive blow. Accounts by way of Paris to lite 8th An- just, state that Count Cuillcminot, the French Ambassador at Const uutinuplc, gives a very unfavorable account oftlio state of the Turkish troops and resources, and of the spi rit that uuimates the Jutiissarics and their friends. It is said that the Sultan, daunted by the threatening state of his affairs, has nt length consented lo the recognition of Greece, nndtho only dispute was uhout the manner in which it was to be done. On the other liunit, it is said and believed, that, the Sultan continues linn and refuses to treat of peace, until the Russians have withdrawn from his territory. No fear, it isjadded, is entertained for Constantinople nt present, though the place is incapable of sustaining a siege. At Adrianople, the inhabitants are snitl to I10 anxious for the arrival oftlio Russians, in con sequence of the bad behavior of tlio Asiatic troops. Despatches were received nt the Foreign office, London, on the fith Sept., from Mr. Gordon, the British Ambassador at Constan- stantinoido of August 12, und from Lord Cow ley at Vienna, dated 'August 27. Nothing had been settled as to tho Greek question ; but the negotiations were still going on.— Groat exertions were making to raise now levies oftroops, hut they had not been attended with much success, atid it was expected that Adrianople could resist.thu attack oftlio Rus sian army, athougli it wns believed that Gen. Diobitsch could not bring more than 35,000 troops against it. That commander was un derstood to have stopped his advance, in order to endeavor to intercept the Grand Vizier be fore his arrival at Adrianople, having heard that lie had guittedChoumlu for that City. As late ns the 12th ult. no negoeiutor had been sent from Constantinople to the Russian head-quarters. This is tho latest intelligence from Constantinople. A letter dated at Odessa, 10th August, N, S. states that an army of21,000 men, is cm barking in the Crimea, and a corps of9000 is encamped and ready before our gates. Tlio general opinion is, thut tho Turkish govern ment, is about making propositions of peace. Means were taking in Odessa to prevent the approach of the plague. The Liverpool papers contain the official account of the lato attack of Don Miguel’s fleet upon the island of Tcrccirtt, which ap pears to have been an nfthir of considerable Importance. The number oftroops engaged in the affair from tho licet was 3,000, in two divisions—thn first of which was suffered to land and destroyed by marked batteries; .fhe boats ofthc second division were sunk or dri ven on shorn by the wind, where the men were either killed or taken prisoners. ’I’ho loss of theevpmf.tiou was 1,2(H) on shore and 1,300 drowned. It is stated that. Don Miguel had sent with the expedition some ofthc most vi olent of his judges with orders to try and im mediately execute not only the gallant. Vi Flor, commandant at. Tcrenira, amlijliis com panion.'?, but also the private soldiets ’lb young Queen of Portugal, Donmi Marin, bad sailed from Portsmouth, with her mother-in- law for Brazil, accompanied by a. Brazilian squadron. It is said that this step had been taken by tlio express direction of the Emperor Don Pedro. Some account oftlio Miguelite squadou, received from Capt. Varmint, sub sequent to the action, will bo found below. In London, nt. the latest date, it was the o- pinion that money wns becoming more in de mand, or in other words, growing scarce. The rains in Euglahd lmd been heavy, but the crops had nearly all been safely got in, and the harvest was expected to he most n- bumlant throughout the Kingdom, und the price of wheat was falling in all the markets. The Liverpool Albion of the 7t h of Octo ber states that the market for the week pre ceding had manifested symptoms of improve ment. In Cotton the business transacted wns on a more extensive scale than usual, the sales amounting to not less than 20,000 bales and holders asking a small advance in price. Particulars of sales for the week ending Sa turday, 0th Sent, will lie found among our ex tracts. I11 addition we have had tlio perusal of various commercial letters of tho latest dates, but have not room for them nt length. They seem to agree that line Uplands will maintain their price, but unless tho coming crop is less thn 111111 average one, no advance need bo expected. Inferior Cottons are ve ry dull. Sea Islands aro still depressed in consequence mainly oftlio difficulties with the workmen employed in their manufacture be ing still unsettled. Advices oftlio 7th, Mon day, mention no eJmmjq in the murket. Accounts from Madeira of the 11t h of Au gust, represent that island as being in a very unsatisfactory state, and it. is said the inhabi tants looked with great interest to the attack on Terceira. The Scotch papers contain accounts of disastrous inundations in Nairn, Morayshire and Aberdeen, from the overllowing of seve ral rivers, in consequence of the torrents of rain which havo fallen. Several bridges have been swept away and much mischief done. A letter from Paris describes that city ns in a stnto of great agitation with the trial of tho Journal do Debats for Its attack on thu Ministry. M. Dnval, thn French Consul nt Algiers lmd died suddenly of apoplexy. No change had taken place tti the relations of the two countries. The u'cnther wns very cool in London tho latter part of August. Heavy storms havo been experienced iu tho Irish Channel, hy which a number of ves sels were wrecked. Tho American Minister hnd a long inter view with tho Earl of Aberdeen on tlio 27th of August. State of Trade.—Dolton, August 29,— The prospects of trade this week aro quito ns lmd ns over; no business to be done, und the distress oftlio weavers daily increasing from want, of employment. The 0-4tli 00 reed, of 91 yards in length, is paid for weaving nt the rals of4h. 3d. per cut; and thu same fabric in 1814, was paid 20s per cut. for weaving. Du ring the Inst, week, no less than seven of the wives, with their families, belonging to per sons who Homo time fine; emigrated from this town to America, havo linen sent foi*, and tho pitssitgo monoyi &o. paid by their fospcc- live husbands. Riots at llunisky.—Wo observe by the Leeds Mercury of lust week, that the weav ers of Barnsley have broken out into acts of nut und outrage, in conscquenco of an in tended reduction of wages. A largo meeting of tho workmen took placo oti Thursday evo- liing; great dissatisfaction was manifested; and on the meeting being dissolved, a num ber of them formed themselves intd bodies, by which the houses of threo manufacturers were assailed, and tho library aud furniture of one of them (Mr. Jackson,) burnt. -The military and civil power fortunately arrived in sufficient time to prevent further mischief. No lives wero lost, and it docs not appear that any of the rioters wero apprehended. In tho course of the night, however, one of tho most prominent speakers, who had made use of very atrocious language at tho meeting, wns arrested ; but afterwards hailed. The town remained much agitated during the whole of Friday* but up to sevort o’clock that evening no lint her disturbance took place.— Tlio weavers bad announced their intention ofholding another meeting on Monday Inst, and the civil and military authorities were fully on the alert. There is no particular alteration to notice in the state oftrade. Perhaps, as rocrards the homo trade, the prevalent feeling has been rendered more gloomy bv the very bad weath er, and the consequent danger to the harvest. Homo failures of drapers have also been an nounced. The purchases of goods, however, continue, on tlio whole, lo bo on a very exten sive scale; and with tho exception of particu lar counts, (hern is no reduction of thu demand for twist for shipping. Manchester Mercury. For Romo time the slate oftrade in Shotliold hns been stationery,—neither very bad, nor yet good. The chief complaints made by the manufacturers havo reference to tho lowness of prices at which art iclcs are necessarily sold, und the difficulty of obtaining payment. Tlio want of orders is not so much felt us the sniull- noss oftlio profit, und the long credit taken. Still we do not hear any murmuring, and thu reason is, we are aware,’there are ninny places so much worse off tban this.—Sheffield Iris. Frum tlio Liverpool Albion, Sopt. 7. The H«r in the Hast.—Tho Prussian State Gazette, oftlio 28th August, furnishes some further details oftlio operations of the Russian army beyond the Balkan, up to the 0th of August inclusive. Tlio head-quarters of Gen. Diobitsch were at A idos on that day. Preparations were ma king for n *• forward” movement. Major General Schcrcnictinft’, who had been ordered to make a reconnoissance, to the right ofthe main army, from Kurnalmt us far us Jumbo], was attacked under the walls of Hint place, by 15,000 of tho enemy’s cavalry and infantry, under the commnnd of Halil Pacha, notwith standing the impetuosity of their attack, the Turks wero repulsed with great loss. This took place 011 thn 30th July. In the night of the 31 st the Turks retivatcll hastily from J11111- bol towards Adrianople and Eslci Hnar, or Sa- grn. The Russians took possession of J«m- bol, in which they found an immense quanti ty of ammunition & provisions. On the 31st of July General Diobitsch issued a proclama tion t<i the iuhtihiUins of Roiunelin, couched in thomost plausible terms of moderation.— The following is tho preamble:—"TheCom- itHiiider-in-Chiof of the Russian army, which victory has brought into the plains of Ittitno- I111, cannot Imt regret, that the Ottoman Go vernment rejects, with cruel obstinacy, the proposals made to it in the name of his Ma jesty the Emperor of all tho Russians, the ac ceptance of wiiich would have put an end to all the evils ofwar, and restored repose and tranquility to the peaceable inhabitants of these countries; he is thus placed under the necessity of iblloxving lip his victories, occu pying the country, and advancing ns fur as Providence shall please, in order, by these means, to compel the Sultan to listen to tho voice of reason aud humanity. In fulfiling this painful duty, the Commander-in-Chief feds tlio most ardent desire to spare tho pea ceable inhabitants, Mahometans ns well us Christians, the burdens of 11 military occupa tion, or rather to prevent their ruin, which would be inevitable, ifterrified hy the approach ofthc army, they should fake the unhappy resolution to abandon their dwellings, their villages, and their towns.” He then goes on to explain tho line of conduct which Tie calls upon the inhabitants of every class to adopt, and that hy which he proposes to regulate his army on their advance, which nro interesting hy the spirit, of moderation and humanity which they breathe. The Allgemeiuc Zoitungofthe29th ultimo, lias brought us intelligence from Constantino ple ofthe 8th of August, (the date of our last despatches,) which confirms all that we an nounced respecting the consternation of the people and the change of mind in the Sultan. It appears, that, besides thn arrival of General Diemtsch’s advanced guard,nt. Kirk Kilissa,a Russian corps had landed at Aniada, 80 miles from the capital, and that the Hultun’i life would have been in danger, if ho hnd not. de clared himself ready “ to do every thing which could cont ribute to tho restoration of peace und tho satisfaction ofthe people.” Tho following extracts nro from tho Ger man papers ; Delgratle, August 10.—Our Pacha 1ms received news from Constantinople to the 3d, which agrees with what, lias been reported hy the Tartars that have arrived during the last eight days. The advance ofthe Russians to Bmirgns, and the landing of a Russian corps at. Sizeboli, had caused tho greatest conster nation both there and nt. Adrianople. Twen ty thousand Armenians havo been ordered hy the two Ptriarchs to labour at the works for the defence oftlio capital. At Adrianople every body is taking up arms : tlio harems and many * Turks of distinction tly towards Constantinople. It is thought, however, that Adrianople ennnot be defended, because the fortifications nno so dilapidated; Imt thut the Turks, if obliged to retreat, will burn this se cond capital ofthe empire, and lay waste the country. From Constantinople many effects nro already being sent, to Asia. Nothingcor- taiu is known of tliodepurturo oftlio Hultan to the nnny. Krajova, August 10.—Rnchova hns been destroyed and abandoned hy the Russians, probably on account, of tho superiority of tlio force under the 1’aeliaofScutnria. It is not known whether the latter, who is said to have 34,000 men under his command, has crossed the Danube. A letter from Orsown,dated Aug. 12, says, News ban been received at Belgrade from Widditt, that tho Russians at Rnchova havo ropiiHuod tho Danube on tho nnprench ofllte Turks. Tho recovery ofthis place is of greut importance at this moment, supplies may now he sent without obstacle to Nicopoli, Hist own, Uitdscliuck, and Giurgevo. It does not appear, however, that the Pacha of Sen- tarin 1ms followed the Russians into little Wallacliia, but it is probable that he mllpro- eeed along tlio Danube to Rudschuck, to threaten tho communications of tho grand Russian army. It is said that after the depar ture ofthe Pacha of Setttoria, there still re mained a garrison of 12,000 men at Widdin.” Bucharest, Aug. 7.—Gon. Geismar, after dispersing tho reinforcement sent to tho Pa cha of Widdin, has retired to tho left bank of tho Danube. Fresh troops from tho interior of Russia havo reached the Danube, and havo takontho road to Jennibazar. THE MARKETS.

Enquiry was anxiously made if the account of their repulse at Prnya, had been received in England, ns up lo the pre sent time they had received no intelligence whatever, either from Portugal or any other part of Europe.
