had been burning three days, until the air from a small opening in the ceiling fanned it into a flame. Mr. Baron VAUGHAN observed, that there could be now no imputation on the character of the Lady at the bar. It had occurred to him at first as an important circumstance in her favour, that the Magistrate before whom the charge was made had admitted her to bail, an d that, with such a serious charge hanging over her, she had surrendered to take her trial. Miss Whately was accompanied to the bar by her three sisters, who awaited the result of the trial. She appeared about thirty years of age. THI4; EVENING STAR. LONDON. THURSDAY, JULY 31, 18'28.

Prazilitn United Mezkan lOWA MIL rA W. 35 20 \ 40 ;8 74 41 20i Our former accounts relative to the French Expedi tion to the Mnrea are officially confirmed by the Mo. siieur. The fact, and the amount of the force which is to form the expedition, are now publicly stated, and the measure is said to have the sanction of this country. The military force is to consist of eighteen battalions of infantry, a regiment of chasseurs, and a detachment of artillery ; the whole 'under the command of Major-General MAlsots. The troops are to assemble at Toulon by the sth of August, and 7 OCOor 8,000 of them will sail from that port on the 15th. A reserve of 6,000, it is gated, will be formed •at Toulon, which are to follow to the Morea, and reinforce the expedition, if it should be found necessary. Lovking to the state of politics and parries in the quarter for which this force is destined, die occupation of the Morea by a French font, at paesent, if, perhaps, the best security to Europe against the consequences likely to arise trom, the inciea,ed power and dominion which the possession of Congsptinople must give to the Emperor of RUSSIA. France will have the power, in conjunction with a British fleet, to set limits to the ambition of Russia; and wl long ar the interests cf France and England are the same, the tranquillity of Europe may be pretty confi dently calculated upon. The French Papers announce that Managlia, another important. fortress which defended the road to Varna, had surrendered to the Russians, so that there was no obstacle whatever to the advance of their left wing upon that city, the possession of which will admit them into the plain of Adrianople. Then, whether the Turks maintain themselves at Schumla, or are driven out of thst position, becomes a matter of no importance, as they will be completely turned, and the road to Con stantinopleentitely open. THE POLLOirING IS POSTED AT THE NORTH AND SOUTH AMERICAN COFFEE HOUSE THIS 'MORNING: RIO JANEIRO, JUNE 3. The Kingfisher is arrived from Buenos Ayres, and will sail to-morrow. No peace; and our Exchange is SOS. The Goldfinch packet is arrived, with letters from England of the sth of April. A private letter of the above date says, that the Emperor will sooner spend his last shilling and loose every man than make peace. PROM THE FRENCH PAPERS, RECEIVED THIS MORNING BY THE MAIL. The Nuremberg Correspondent says, of the 22d July, that it was reported at Vienna that an alliance has been concluded between England, Austria, and France, to oppose the aggrandisement of Russia. The same Paper asserts, that 100,000 Russians are advancing to the attack cf the Balkan Mountains. The Turks depend on their lines at Sebumla, which are defended by 1,300 pieces of cannon. There k a general talk of a Congress, which is to be held at Laybach. It has for its object to regulate the interest arising from the war of Turkey, and the const caences of the Treaty of the 6th July. It is affirmed that all the Powers will send their Ambassadors. The preparations for the expedition to the Morea are going forward with the greatest speed. The Officers of the Etat Major and the Military Administrations have received ()viziers to depart. The expedition is to sail before the 20th of Augur. The G erman Papers to the UOth instant. received this morning, contain no political news. Toe Wowing article, on the government of the Greek islands, is the only piece of intelligence worth extracting : VIENNA; JULY 17. The Universal Gazette of Greece, No. 35, contains grnersl instructions for the Extraordinary Commis sioners r f the Government in six departments of the AtchipelAgo. These Commissioners, say the instruc- tions, will find in the annexed papers a clear and precise explanation cf the objects which the Government had in view when it sent iti Colleagues to the Morea.-- Having the same objects before its eyes, and eager to fulfil the same duties, it hereby confides to the pate iotism and the zeal cf the Commissioners sent to the Archipe lago the important task of establishing a regular and legal Government in every island of their respective departments. It is by no means the intention of the Government to introduce reforms or create new political institutions ; on the contrary, it wishes as much as possible to maintain the ancient ones. But in order to make them useful, it must place them under the shield of the laws, and preserve Clem from the abuses which are produced by license and their consequences. Building en this general basis, and keeping in view the abovementioned docu ments (the instructions to the Commissioners of the Go vernment in the Morea), the extraordinary Commissioners for the Archipelago will decide, when they are on the spot, what order they should observe for the purpose of executing the measures thus pointed out, and what modifications it may be advisable to adopt in conformity with local circumstances. These instructions have therefore only some addi• tional articles in reference to the particular situation and interests of the islands. The first articles of these instructions relate to the appointment of the Demogerontes, or Elders, the only Government authorities in the islands. The following relate to the regulations for the navigation: es The Go vernment hopes that it will have no further occasion to proceed against and to punish robbers who have dis graced the national flag by piracy, It is well aware ' that in the islands certain foreigners, under the cover of anarchy, seduced some Greek sailors into this road of destruction. The extraordinary com missioners will learn whether any indi►iduals of this description still remain in the islands, and if they do, will not suffer them any longer to find an,asylarn there. They must have an eye upon all foreigners whose re►idence is not accounted for by commercial, or other public and actual business; but in proportion as they are strict towards such adventurers, they will be eager to show honour and friendship to all respectable travel- lers, merchants, and strangers, who are 'under the pro tection of the Agents' Consuls whom their respective Governments have in the islands. "As no public act has yet regulated the relations between these Agents and the Greek Government—J.' and as no . former agreement between the Turks and the European Powers can now have any validity, it is for this reason impossible accurately to determine the relations between these agents and the Greek Govern ment. Nevertheless the Government is bound, by regard for the European Powers, and by due care for tile corn mercial interests of the Allied Sovereigns, prActizally to respect those agents, and cause them to be respected, without deciding theoretically for or against such a right. It is therefore highly necessary to prevent all such disputes in a friendly and confidential manner, and to arrange the difficulties that may arise-in commeicial, mainline, and other affairs, between the subjects of fo reign St,tes and Greek citizens. The Conninsioners will therefore employ all their attention and care to satisfy the demands of these agents accordirig to tint strictest justice, and thus to prevent their application to the Admirals, or their complaints t's tle Government:. The same number of the Universal Gazette contains also a proclamation of the President to the inhabitants of the six departments of the Archipelago, in which he announces the sending of the Commissioners and its object; and observing that the interest of navigation and commerce is the most important concern of the islands and of the whole state, he notices the instruc tions given to the Commissioners on the subject, and declares that if the law is again violated, and the na tonal flag ...gain disgraced by piracy, the Greek nation will inevitably incur the danger of being wholly destia tu.e of a marine. He therefore calls on them to second the exertions of the Commissioners, and conc;udes thus : " You now begin, in concert with the Government, to work on your regeneration. Our efforts ate made under the eyes of the Powers who are pleased to have corn passion with our misfortunes, and still further to en courage us in the hopes which the Treaty of 6:b July gives us. Our future fate is in their hands. Let us do our duty, and entertain no doubt either of the favour of GOD or of the justice of the Allied Powers. " Egina, llay 26. (Signed) "J. A. CAPO D'ISTRIA.

The Government of Mecklenburg seems resolved to make a serious attempt to improve the civil and moral condition of the Jews. The Grand Duke's Commis sioners in the Diet have laid before the States the result of precedingdeliberations in the outline of an Ordinance on the subject, and desired the opinion of the Estates on it. The Sovereigns of both . the Grand Duchies wish a law to be enacted, by which their Jewish subjects in both countries may be treated as nearly as possible on the same principles, and, by the equitable concessions of 'civil rights, be placed in a condition more adapted to their own interest and that of the St ite.—Berlin Papers, July I 9.—(These Papers have no news from the theatre of war).

The beantifor mansion of GEORGE LANE Fox, E. g . situate about four miles from this' place. was this morning entirely destroyed by fire. -The fire was first discovered about-one o'clock,. and not long after the ramify who were there had retired' IQ rest. One of the footmen was the first that was awoke by a strong smell of smoke. h then proceeded id 'alarm t'h'e tad() • young Ladies who were th er e, and tbe go4ernesti'who made their t stripe precipitately ; and it was well they did, for a few moments more and they must have been lost, with such rapidity (lid the flames spread. Near the room where they slept, or the butler's pantry, the fire originated, as it is supposed. Thee apartments were in the left wing, and from this the fire communicated to the centre of the building, the whole of which is completely de.. stroyed, together with all the furniture, which was most valuable. Sonic few of the paintings were got our, but many of them are destroyed. The plate. valued at upwards of 4,0001. indevendent of the value' set upon it fol. its antiquity, is nearly all destroyed. The whole loss is calculated to be cureless than forty thousand pounds, and there is only a comparatively small insurance. All the neighbouring Gentlemen were noun on the spot, and, together with the yeomanry and peasantry, rendered every' possible ante; but to save the budding, or the great; onion of the property that it contained,wasimpossible,particularly thegr,nd of toms in the centre and the lett wing, up to the left colonnade. The right wing is not destroyed, but injured, and beyond the left cola/roads .the fire did not reach. The servants, and particularly the females, had great difficulzy in escaping, and most of them have lust tbeie all. Two men who were assisting at the fire are hurt ; one. fall from the top of the building, missing his footsteps in the. sio4e. Ali the deeds - and writings relating to the estates have been saved.

BALLOON ASCENT.—Thursday last, Mr. Henry Green (not the equestrian aeronaut) made one of the most dangerous and rash ascents from the gai-works at Northampton ever recorded. The balloon was considered fu'ly infl tted at three o'clock, and an immense con course of spectators had assembled to witness the ascent. The car was then attached, and Mr. Green proceeded to make an experiment of the machine's ascending power, but to his surprise found its gravity so great, that it would not rise from the ground, even when the car was emptied of the necessary appendages. It was also discovered that the gas was rapidly escaping, and several injuries were visible in the varnish work; but Mr. Green, in despite of every remonstrance that could be made, declared the public should not be dia• appointed, and with the utmost speed detached the car from the tolloon, flung himself across the hoop to which the car had been appended, struck the last stay-rope, and withnlltt grapnel, ballast, or any means of assisting in his descent, oared above the heads of the astonished spectators. The machine reached the altitude of about half a Mile, when. a rapid descent was visible, and plenty of lksistance being at hand, he landed safely in a field at ballington, one Mile and a half from'the gas works, and eight' minutes after he left ierrafirrota, the gas being in that time nearly all eqransted." - ) N
