The corn vessels art Constantinople were all u-rikjarded-ami1paid fop The tallow ships were still under embargo. The Skylark, with 300 bales of silk, had arrived at Smyrna from Constantinople.

In addition to the above intelligence, there is a report circulated rn the city, ottthe authority (it is alleged) of accounts from Turkey nine clays Iffter than the mail, that dreadful excesses had taken place in Con-sinntlnepie-^that every Russian, and aU persons lately under the protection of th& Russians, ha/i been put to death, and that the subjects of I'V.ince" and England had been also iil treated. Wha* foundation the statement rests on we cannot yet ascertain. But'the spirit which prev, vails at Constantinople gives reasonable grounds lor apprehending some iolence o^n the part of the hordes v/ho inust be on their passage through the city. *. •. ,• •, -n

Itf'POH TED A S-SACHE OF- TlJE liUSV- SJAVS. From the London Globe of Feb. 28.

The Turkey mail arrived this ^inorning bringing dates from Constantinople to the 27th, and Irom

Smyrna to the 19th ult. The Manifesto in substance is tully confirmed there is only ona original copy sin town, and it u^s immediately Ccr--warded to his majesty^s ministers by the gentleman by whom it was received. We understand it is in subjstance the same as the one publish ed in the French papers. It is dated 20th of December, and' has been transmitted privately to rouse the -Saltan's Asiatic subjects .and it"was 'only by intelligence from Asia that the existence of the document first transpired a? Constantinople. It had produced some sensation among the Fianks, particularly as the preparations for war were carried on -j^ith the greatest energy, The nuinb,?r of troops coming from Asia were 'Wry great, and the Turkish army in the capital was already of some magnitude. The Knglish merchants appear more alarmed than usual, as they say the energy with which the rroops have been silently raised, e-

VUices the determined manner in •which the Turk means to resist the European powers, and that nothing is now calculated upon but war. In tJie mean time every thing was tranquil, »:d thi? Turkish police most strict. The Franks, however, were leaving Constantinople. At Smyrna the alarm was not so great, as 1-Jiere were several vessels of war in the bay, and none of the merchants ware embarking.

im-

lu^nsf, as the proclamation orders 'all the

population to rally round

Pans, Feb. 25.

A wliic has been long feared. The last

We have this instant received

f-' fre'sh fetters Irom Constantinople, ," dated tlie J26th of January. They are extremely interesting: "Circumstances appear at length to indicate the approach of a crises

hgttischet yr, which destroys all hope next moment man and oar disappear-

of reconciliation with Russia as well with respect to its internal allairs, as the treaty of Ackerman, as wit regard to the proposals ol pacifiatmn. has been read in aU the mosques and the immediate closing ol the ivs phorus against the ships of al. the Christian nations, aftbrds a proor that the late negociations have so incensed the Porte, that he no longer cares for the maintenance of the existing treaties, with, the other states. In the midst ot all these alarms, the military preparations and the measures o-f precaution are prosecuted with great diligence.

The persecution ol the Greeks and Armenians is not relaxed. M. Ol tenlels has interfered without success. AH the Catholic Armenian churches in Para and Galalia have been closed.

It-is difficult to concede the miserable condition in which the Armenian Christians, without exception, havbeen for this fortnight past. 0.n tlul£th a firman appeared, according to which 37 000 Catholics of that nation were ordered to quit Para and Galatia. This order was executed on the spot in g,lt Us rigor. On the appli cation of the Austrian Internuncio and of the Primates, the old. persons above seventy, and the women with child, alone received permission to remain, and almost general emigration then began thousands of Armenians left the two quarters to embark and fathers were seen carrying their children in baskets upon poles, and hastening to the port iheir dwellings were immediately occupied by Mussulman soldiers.

Th«se-ol the rich which were shut up were immediately sequestered for the benefit ol the treasury. Para and Ualatia were in a lew days almost deserted The state ot the captal in general has a melancholy ap pearance, and all hope ot any arrangement is vanished. The exiles on the coast of Asia, are brooding over projects of vengeance, and the rage of Mussulmans against the Christians, inflamed by the firmans and the hatti-scheriff, increases every moment, so that every thing is to be feared In addition to this, 200.000 Asiatics are expected. Their arrival will be the signal for the moat complete anarchy. V,

Montevideoland Vera Crux:.—Brig Celeno, Frazier,arrived at Baltimore from Guayaquil 9thDecember, touched at Montevideo on the 22d January and at Vera Cruz on the 7lh March Capt. F. was on board the U. S. ship Macedonian, where he leasnt that the Brazilian and Buenos Ayrean, armies iu the Province of Rio Grande werevnear each other, & that a battle was hourly expected Capt. brought no letters from Montevideo..

At Guayaquil, Flour was 812d p^r barrel and brandy and spirits ol al! kinds scarce and igh.

The expulsion ol the old Spaniards from aU the Mexican provinces, had created a great deal of alarm and confusion, and a general suf-pensio.' of-business at Vera Cruz. Com. Porter was still in port the officers of the squadron had addressed him a memorial soliciting his influence with the government to have the squadron equippfd, manned, and sent out against the Spanish fleet, for the purpose of avenging the capture of the Guerrero, and the death of Capt. Porter. a

"The boat which sunk with Midshipmen Slidell, Hunter, Kodgers and Harrison, has been found, but the bodies of the sufferers have not. There are 6ome circumstances connected with this truly melancholy event, which should not be omitted, as they exhibit evidences of the chivalry and magnanimity of these young men worthy of commemoration. Hunter and Rodgers were good- swimmers Slidell an indifferent one and Harrison could not swim at all. Slidell did not sink with the bcrat as stated in our last, hut swam for gome time after she went down. Mr. Hunter swam about the distance of 300 yards in the direetion of the- shore, when he was called to by Mr. Rodgers to-assist him in saving Harrison, whom he was struggling to buoy up, and he accordingly turned back, and he and Rodgers, wkh the awl of a small oar, kept hiin afloat-

Harrison, though only a youth of 16, with a fortitude and heroism that would have done honor to a veteran, besought his companions to abandon, him to his fate, assuring them that he feared not death—-that it was impossible to save him, and they would only lose their own fives in a fruitless attempt to preserve his. His generous companions, however, persevered, and Rodgers bade bira to be cf good heart for they would save him or perish rn the attempt. At this moment a cry from Slidell for help warned them of his exhausted con-

PROPOSALS

For publishing at rl Wayne^ Indiana, a Weekly News papsr, to bi entitled the.

FORT WAYNE -f

Jntclligencer. T-

THE' proprietors of this folio of four pa^es consider-it their duty to inform those who maybe induced to patroni/.e it that the political sentiments which may be disseminated through the medium of its columns, shall be purely and unequivocally republican, its character shall never be polluted by the ebulitiongof malevolenee, ivor embittered by the gall of traduction. in the great political question which agitates the Union, the proprietors cannot discover so great a il'-sree of excitement created, as to effect that friendly and social feeling betwe/» neighbors of? opposing political principle, as to render society intolerable nor are they apprehcosive that the rocking of. the battlements," will soon prodoce such a state of things. But to prevent among ourselves all- unnecessary warmth that might be gendered by party zeal, by partiality or prejudice, they are determined topttMish nothing relative to the approaching presidential election that is not couched in. words of truth and perfectly free from acrimony and personal invectives—private character shall be respected, a-nd public worth &haJl n«t be insulted.

Besides tlve matter which weekly Journals usually contain, the Fort Wayne Intelligencer will shed much important light on those objects which are more immediately connected with the interests of our fellow citizens. It will point out the Commercial-, Agricultural an Manulacturing advantages of this important section of the State, and will occasionally embellish its columns with accounts of the Topography, Geology, and natural-hiitory of the co untry.

Much pains will be taken to portray the Aboriginal character, and to collect Anecdotes, from authentic sources, in relation to their history, manners and customs. For this purpose, ample materials can easily be .procured. i'his paper will be placed under the superintendancrt of an Kditor lor \yhc.9e conduct end impartiality as such, the proprietors will becotuc responsible.
