SATURDAY.

The Morning Post publishes a letter, dated July 27th, from its cor- respondent at Constantinople, stating that troops have mutinied in various parts of the Turkish empire, and that HAM Pacha, with his staff and the remnant of his army, about 8,000 men, has declared for MEnEMET Am. It is added. that Lord PONSONBY is " without a word of instructions" how to act in the present crisis ; but the writer's means of knowing that fact are not apparent. The French fleet was in the Dardanelles, and the British cruising off Rhodes.
