The Turkish commander, Osman Effendi, was on his march against the insurgents when these accounts came away, with a considerable body of troops, which the Grand Vizier had ordered to be reinforced, by detachments of French troops, who are to form an army of reserve. This situation of affairs causes much discontent at Constantinople.
