I. CONSTANTINOPLE, June 10. A conspiracy has been made to dethrone the sultan ; and fediiious writings have been polled up in the mofejues. The camps in f artillery, exem'fed in the European way. The Ottoman squadron, cor.fifting of 6 ships of the lice, 2 frigates, and a corvette, is not to be commanded by c?pitana bey, or sice-admiral ; the captain pscha himfelf will command, who now thinks himfelf fufficlcntly firm in the good graces of his royal mailer, to venture an absence from the court, and fail into the White sea, regardless of , his domeflic enemies 7. he French ambafiador found His court infultcd by an omission of the captain paeh a , who , when | he l.oifted his flag, and, out of compliment, ihofe , of all the principal maritime powers of Europe omitted thareeremony only to the flag of France' Verninac piefented a very spirited memorial upon' i the subject, which thS minister of Kate afTetfed to treat with levity > but finding it insisted on by the I French ambassador, the Ottoman Porte declaimed ! by the admiral himfelf, any intentional difrefpedl to , the republic, and ordeied the captain 0 f the (hint* be pot in irons. The-Trench amb.fTador ' went lumfrff on board to, keg .he captain', Ijben.- i tion, and he was falutedl with 9 guns by the * hole ' fleet, which betog unusual, furnifhtrd a rctu-r of jealeufy to the other atnbafiadurs. Ed The Allele lqusdron is equipped completer in a- the European stile. The commander himfeW 14 not it- acquainted with his dedication, not being to open ' his hi» difppjchcs till he arrives at the Dardanelles. >n j It is imagined that he will either remain in the Ar tfs I chipelago, to exa<*l the annual contributions of the er i (lands; qr he may be ordered 011 feme expedition if- j agaiuft the rebel pacha of Acri, who has extorted i great sums of money from the fahjt&s of the Porte, lie «f which, in the present jundlure, they hive great i), need. What particularly points to this obj-dt ij, >f the quantity of land and ordnance ammunition, :d which it would n«t be neceflary to fend on bo*rd a fleet destined only to crsife in the Archipelago, t, Councils ef state fit hers frequently and long, tip es on •ccaliou of a family alliance between Russia and . p. : Sweden, either concluded or ready 10 be so, which in hat deranged the interest of this empire extretnely —we having teckuned upon the completion of the treaty of subsidies opened lad year with that power. Another obje£ of icfle&ion is, the progress of the war between the Ruffian*-and Perhain, uniformly in favour of the former power : also the affuranca that the Poles were disposed to make a new and vi ~ goretis reliftancf, with the aid of the Turks, which would certainly be given, If the negeciations were j. completed with other powers—events which cannot fail to operate this most important changes in the I politics of the Ports. . The Cenfeur, French frigate, is failed for the Archipelago, to cruise againfl the enemv, which P indeed (he may e;tfily do, there being no Euglifh (hip ef war there at prcfent. The Mai-efe make , us pay dearly for the veflcls we captured belonging to that state. » e ITALY, July 6. « e The French pr/ivateers, which swarm in the Me diterranean, having greatly deranged the trade of that sea, twenty (hips have been fitted out at Corsi ca, and the Viceroy has offered a eonfiderable re ward forcveiy French privateer bißugut in. Se. ven have already been taken. Lorretto, in the Pope's territory, is already oc cupied by the trench. Thcrc~sTid at Aucona, they have seized all the valuables, and sent the heavy ordnance against Mantua. The Pope is to cede Avignon for ever to France. The large English magazines, which the French found at Leghorn, are worth many millions. CARLSRUHE, July ,5.
