„ , Tho State of Tackey. J The Boston Courier published I lowing extract of a letter dated. August 22,1860, written by on I professors in the University of Athens: “The state of Turkey is daily growing vorse. The massacre of the Christians tSyria, p< Ithofol- under ;h the connivance of oritles, has revealed, to Europe the political and moral qondi- tdon of that government, for the preser vation of which the greatest powers of Europe have shed their blood and ex pended their treasures, and to which the high wisdom of diplomacy has giv en a distinguished place in the councils of the West. But the evils ate notcon- fined to Syria. According to recent in telligence, the Mussulmans being in cited by the Ulemas, are enraged against the Christians, form conspiraces against them, and are meditating butch eries and plunder. A plot of this sort [was detected, a few days ago, at Salom on by the French consul there, whose energy obliged the Pasha of the prov ince to prevent the evil. Yesterday we heard from Epirus that several bodies of armed Albanians entered Pr&blesa and Arta, and the neighboring towns, plundered some Churches annialtreited ed the Christians. The Sultan’s soldiers, both regular and irregular, have' hot re ceived any pay these eight oil ten months past, and consequently they are disaffected. It is therefore feared that in many parts of the empire, these soldiers will plunder and otherwise in jure the Christians. This being the case, the latter are everywhere in a state of terror, and such of them as can .pro cure weapons are arming themselves, being resolved to sell their blood as dearly as possible. -? Peculation, extortion, oppression of the Christians, and extravagant expen diture have reached their height. Two thirds of the revenue of the empire are wasted at the Sultan’s palace. And et’his private debt is said to amount 100,000,000 or 120,000,000 piastres, ay £1,000,000.) If the Albanians, as it is feared, shall lattempt to plunder the Christian vil lages situated near tho Greek frontier, it will not be possible .for our govern ment to prevent its subjects from help ing their brethren on the 'othervide of the line. 49*A great Wide-Awake demonstra- |tion of abolitionists from various North- i cities is to come, off in New. York on October 3d. It is said „that tjio pro- —don will bo seven hours in.pajsing & i point, and that those in the first may be at home and fast asleep j before the last division has started om its parade grouitd. - ‘ - A Land Patent Issued toI Adraiiam ■Lincoln.—A patent of one hundred and ■twenty acres of land has just been.issued I from the land office toAbraham Lin- Icoln, the BepublicanY candidate for ■President, as captain', in .the Illinois (militia during the Black: Hawk war.— lit is stated that Linooln, while in,Con- Igrcss, voted against the granting of ■lands to soldiers serving in the.; Moxi lean war,yet he has no objection to taking lone hundred and twenty acres for I himself. The. Spanish Expedition against Mex- too. K | iVJ5 y * The N. O. Picayune -says letters of the highest authority have been reoeiv- ed in that city, which leave no room to doubt that an expedition is preparing at Havana against Mexico. It adds: They.assert positively, indeed, that an expedition of not less that 20,000 men- is actually being fitted out in that city for Vera Crus. And 1 of this no sej oret is made. Even the troopB compris ing the expedition, their regiments and companies, are mentioned. They are for the most part the acclimated troops, of the island. Their places will be fill ed by Tecruits at home and reinforce ments from the Peninsula, the vanguard of which were dally expected. The ostensible grounds of quarrel between Spain and Mexico have already been suited. The real object of the present expedition, however, if ever it should proceed to the Mexican coast, is arm ed intervention, looking to a perma nent protection over the country, if not its ultimate acquisition. However Quixotic this may seem to us, it is no doubt actually in contemplation. A thousand recent events forshadow _ it, and especially the recent recognition of the Miramon Government in Mexico —a Government with which no other nation holds diplomatic relations. In that ceremony the powerful interposi tion of the Spanish Government was oponly invoked “to give'peace!’ to the country, and the Minister promised it, in diplomatic terms it is true, but still in terms not to be misunderstood. Death of a once Notorious Woman of New York.—Mrs. Moffat, once no torious as Rosina Townsend, the keep er of the houso of ill-fame in New York, where Helen .Jewet was murdered, nearly a quarter of a centrry since, died at Castleton, New York, a few days ago.
