POSTSCRIPT TO THE WEEK'S NEWS.
SPECTATOR OFFICE, SATURDAY, Two o'CLocK. No later accounts have been received by Government from Con- stantinople. It is therefore almost certain that the accounts in the French papers, founded on letters from Constantinople of the 20th ult. are incorrect. If hostilities had recommenced, Sir RottEnT GORDON would assuredly have apprized his Government of the fact. Sufficient time has elapsed for accounts to reach this country from Constantinople five or six days later than those which have reached the Foreign Office.
There are arrivals to-day from Lisbon and Buenos Ayres. The former bring no news of the slightest interest. The latter mention an unfortunate quarrel between some Buenos Ayreans and part of the crew of the British ship of war Tribune, in which one of our sailors
was killed and several were wounded.
