The Ayan of Kemsich Callange Ogla, one of the most s.arm partizans of Mustapha Bairactar, is in open rebellion—he has refused to furnish the 'number of troops the Porte demanded of him, and ;has already committed some hostilities in concert with ;those of his party. Immediately on the Grand Seig ilior being informed of it, he gave orders to the Ca. pitan Pacha to march without delay, and reduce the itbels. This Pacha lately set sail, with three corvettes nod a brig, and many other vessels, which have on board $OOO men, under the orders of Florren Pacha. I,Ve impatiently expect the issue of this affair. SCUTARY, (ALBANY) JANUARY 27. Yesterday the Pacha published an order, that al l e inhabitants from Podgereza, who were in this town, should quit it. It is said that this strange ordinance has been issued because a mortality has made its ap rarance at Podgereza, caused by a contagious ma. la dy, from which it is essential to guard the town of Si:utary. PANESOWA, JANUARY 31. The Assembly of the Servian Chiefs, at Belgrade, i s now dissolved.

These Papers also contain the usual periodical Ex pose of the state of Spain.. It does not contain a word of Barrosa or Portugal, and is, in fact, a tissue of falsehood and bombast as usual.

We are happy to state, that the wound of Colonet SEBRIGHT, (brother of Sir JOHN) who so gallantly led the Guards in the late action, is not of a dangerous nature ; it was a musket shot which lodged in his left shoulder, and was soon extracted.. Captain RAINSFORD'S Company of Royal Artillery did not embark at Plymouth on Saturday, as was ex pected, having been countermanded till Monday (this day). There are six companies of Artillery on the point of embarkation ; but they are not all destined for Portugal. Two expeditions, on difierent parts of ' the Spanish coast, are in contemplation, in which these troops will be employed, in conjunction with a' number of seamen and marines.

He was General of the army of King Fergus 11. against the Romans and Britons ; was married to a lady of the rcyal house of Denmark ; was Regent of Scotland • and guardian to his grand son, King Eugene IL—William de Graham, from whom this family may be traced from father to son to the present time, was one of the witnesses at laying the foundation of the Abbey of Holyrood House by King David I. anno 1125.—David de Graham, of that ilk, was appointed one of the Regents of Scot land on the death of Alexander 111. (1285) during the absence and minority of Margaret the Maiden of Norway.—Sir John the Graham, thefider Achates of the renowned Sir William Wallace, fell at the battle of Falkirk (1298), fighting valiantly for the liberties of Scotland against a superior force.—From this time until the days of the renowned Marquis, this family VIA„ 51. `produced many eminent patriots in church and Arrived his Majesty's ships state. Patrick, third son of William Lord Graham, Locusr, and by his second wife, Lady Mariotta Stewart, daughter att.- - of King Robert 111. and widow of George Earl of Angus, as also of Sir James Kennedy of Dunure, was Archbishop of Saint Andrew's in the reign a King James 111. That venerable Prelate died in his castle of Lochleven, in Fife, (anno 1478.) afterwards the prison of Queen Mary.—William, the next brother to the Bishop, was ancestor of the Grahams of Gar vock and Balgowan, from whom our heroic General is lineally descended.—Andrew Graham was Bishop of Dunblane in the reign of King James VI. and was the first Protestant Bishop of that See.—General Graham married early in life the Honourable Maryi Cathcart, daughter of Charles Lord Cathcart, and sister to the present Viscount Cathcart, Lord Gree nock, &c. Commander in Chief in Scotland, and to the late Duchess of Athol, Countess Dowager of Mansfield, &c. &c. This virtuous andleautiful lady died in the year 1792: her mournful husband erected a very superb monument to her memory at Methuen, and aftewards went to the army, to which he as well as his ancestors has been an ornament. It is singularly unfortunate, that the four Officer; of the Guards, who fell in the action of Barrosa, wet% the only sons of their respective families. . The whole of VICTOR'S Staff were either killed or wounded in the splendid action of Barrosa. The French Eagle which has been taken, was surrounded by six French Officers, who were all killed. The Eagle was then borne off in triumph by the gallant 87th. General GRAHAM charged twice at the head of that Regiment, and had two horses killed under him. Arti~i~l~, - ~~ 1 . FALMOUTH, MARCH 29.

At the late Assizes at Monaghan, two men, of the names of Patrick M'Kew and Tady Kelly, were in dicted and convicted—the former for administering, and the latter for taking an unlawful oath. It ap. peared upon this trial that an Association for seditious and rebellious purposes has been extending itself widely in that county. A part of the oath, and the pass-word came out in the course of the trial, and what is called a Constitution was produced, similir or rather somewhat resembling that of the United Irish men in 1798. DUBLIN, MARCH 26.—The most extrordinazy ac quittal of five brutal ruffians at the Assizes for the ! county of Mayo, has excited great astonishment. Five of the Jury were Protestants, and seven Roman Catho lics, who having on their oaths made up their minds upon the evidence laid before them, came out of the box, and told the Judge that they were satisfied of the guilt of the prisoners, and that they would bring in; their verdict accordingly, if his Lordship would enter into a compromise to spare their laves ; and when the Learned Judge determined to do his duty, and relying that the Jury would do theirs, sent them back ' to their jury-room, to commune with each other and their own consciences. This Jury, who in the first instance were, in less than an hour, satisfied of the guilt of the prisoners, remained afterwards shut up a whole night and half of the ensuing day, and then came out, and on their oaths declared that the prisoners were innocent men. It had been sta ted most untruly, in the debates at the Catholic Comtnittee, that Roman Catholics did not obtain jus tice in party prosecutions, from Protestant Juries. But here is an instance, and a most glaring and disgraceful one, that the crown and country could not obtain, in a cause in, which men of every religious persuasion, as well as ofthe common feelings ofhumanity, are equally interested, justice against five atrocious insurgents from a Mayo Jury, the majority of which were Ro man Catholics. Upon the above verdict being given, Baron Groaoz, the Judge, said, “ I know not how to express my feelings upon receiving your verdict, and shall only say, it is the very worst I ever knew since I became acquainted with the administration of justice." His Lordship made many other similar observations at the moment • and afterwards, when pronouncing sentence upon the *Cues, expressed a hope that their fate would tend to counteract the otherwise possible effects of the extraordinary verdict that day delivered, which, he was convinced, must have struck every man in the Court with horror. He added, that he never in his life had said halt so much in disparagement of the verdict of any Jury. Orders are said to have been given to the Judge of the Admiralty, that no restoration of Swedish pro perty shall be made, or money on account of it paid, until further notice. It is understood that Mr. PINKNEY proposes to quit England in the Essex, on or about the 10th instant. It is probable, however, that he will not take his de parture until he has acquired the knowledge of the ultimate proceedings of Congress, prior to its disso lution on the 4th of March. A messenger left town on Saturday, for Cadiz, with dispatches for General GRAHAM. He is also the bearer of the thanks of both Houses of Parliament to the General, and the other gallant Officers and men under his command. A small island has lately emerged from the sea to ttie north of Moscoe ; it is ten miles long and five broad, and bears no marks of volcanic origin. • Less than an acre of ground,formiag a part of the domain of Foley-house, Cavendish-square, was sold Jost week to the'parish of Mary-la-bonne, for £12,000.
