Vandalia Whig And Illinois Intelligencer

From the Baltimore American.

LATER FROM EUROPE.

The ship Meridian, at New York from Havre, sailed on the 6th April, bringing to the editors of the Courier and Enquirer, Paris papers of the 5th, containing London dates of the 2d April.

The most interesting intelligence contained in these journals is a full confirmation of the capture of Smyrna by a detachment of the Egyptian army,—an event which appears to have excited considerable commotion among the diplomatic body at Constantinople. It would seem that the Representative of France in that capital warmly urged the necessity of sending back the Russian succors which had arrived there; but as far as we can as yet discover, without effect. A Russian land force seems also advancing on the Turkish territories. It is very possible that important consequences may grow out of this state of things; it would be useless however to indulge in any surmises as to what those consequences may be, dependant as they are on hundreds of contingencies.

It would appear that England is also about to assume a warlike attitude in the Levant. The ships of the line, Malabar, Warspite, Edinburgh, and Belierophon, are ordered for the Mediterranean, and will be joined by the Saint Vincent and Britannia, from the Lisbon station.

France has already collected an imposing naval force at Toulon, and Admiral Ducrest de Villiers has left Paris for that place, on some mission connected with this squadron.

London, April 2.

We learn from a person entitled to the utmost confidence, that news from Constantinople, via Odessa, has been received by the government this evening. The dates reach to the 10th March. Admiral Roussin was making preparations to quit Constantinople, on account of his protestations against the prolongation of the presence of the Russian fleet at Buyukdere and the march of the Russians from Jassy proving unsuccessful. It is added that the French Ambassador had a sharp altercation with the Reis Effendi, and that in consequence of said interview, he had demanded his passports.
