CuN81'AN'l‘t.V0l'l.E BECOMING Fitsxcii.—

A correspondent of the Journal of Com- tnercc, residing in Constantinople, thus writes of the gradual change of which is taking place in the government of the city: “ Constiintinoplo is gradually changing hands; and the rule of the Mshommcdrin is yielding to the clfrontcry of the Fritnlt. Everything tends to prove that the day of Islutnistn are over, and that the French will soon form a Paris on the sides of tlic Gol- en Ilorn. Not long ago, the French took possession of the large and beautiful Rus- sian ptiliice, one ofthe best cdiﬁccs in Peru, rind hitherto licld inviolate by the English. The French for ti long time, looked upon it with covetous eye, but were not prepared to use it; now, however, they no so numerous here that additional room is

was, that art such it number of outrages were coinnrittcd by the French and Eng- lish sitilors in the neighborhood, and as the Turks were unable to preserve the peace, was deemed necessary to use it more etlicit-tit authority, one with more force to back it.

“ And when we consider the inntter in its most serious light, and view the subject in all its heiiriiigo, we must confess that Con- stantinople would be it more pleasant resi- cncc, and ii greater miirt of commerce, if the French rctriiiicd possession of it.

‘ tttn induced to believe tlitit, in it couple ofyears from this time, we trill see it line and noble city, rising like it Plrurriix lrotn its ashes, on the site of tho it-cscnt. Mighty changes convrilsing both Europe and America, may take place before then!"
