M. de Rigny announces, that each ship had erected a battrry on shore to reduce the fort. !NOM THE GAZETTE DE !NANCE, DATED NOV. 20. TRIESTE, Nov. 7. A letter from Colin, of the 24th of October, an flounces, that on the news of the occupation of Patras by the F.ench, the populace of Prevesa had surrounded and threatened the residences of the foreign Consuls, but that no accident had happened. -A letter from Ancona of the 29th says—g , That by the arrival of an English brig, news had been received at Corfu that Mr. Stratford Canning, who had been before authorised by the Government to take part in the conferences at Corfu and Poros, had suddenly sepa rated from his colleagues, after having received dis patches ham London. The news seems to be in great want of confirmation, for all the letters received direct from Cot fu are wholly silent on this subject." FROM THE MESSAGER DES CHAMBRES, NOV. 19. SPNILIN Nov 2 . On the 2rth of October a Jewish merchant, who was ts:ualiy charged with the commissions of the Pacha, was arrested and thrown into the dungeon of the cita del. There are various cot jectures respecting the tau-e of this measure. Some affirm that he has been the me. dium of a cot respondence between the Prince of the Servians and Vie Russian Governor-General of the two ptincipalties; others think that amidst all the indiscreet language which is dai y held Isere upon public affairs, the events of the war, and the most import silt intere•t, rif the Government, the Pacha has thought it pru dent to secure a man who is in the pos,ession of all his secrets, were it only to give a salutary warning to the crowd' of busy bodies who talk of every thing, meddle with every thine, and endeavour to throw every thing into confusion. It is certain that we no lunger perceive any trace of that satisfaction which was dis played in the countenances If t e persons of the Pacha's house! old but a shout time apo, and that the Turks were informed several days ago of the surrender of Varna, which the Christian portion of the population of Semlin did nut learn till yesterday by letters from Varna and the Amstriax Observer. As is usual upon sever es tif fortune, the songs of triumph which were echoed from Belgrade to us, have been succeeded by the most gloomy reports of the in calculable losses of the Turks on this occasion, on their desperate condition, and the mortal blew which this evens must give to the atoMalli Power even in the heart ti the Empire. The Turks no li.nger deceive themselves on its possible re ults, and the proof of it is-found in the extreme activity displ yed by the Pacha of Belgrade in furnishing ail the suppites of aims, am• munition, leather, provisions, and in short. all the ne cessaries-which are required for the army, and which lie forwards with all . possible dispatch. He makes contracts, pays - ready money, and dues every thing in bis power to form very consiierable magaz:i.ei, ac cording to the wish r f the Sultan, who had given him orders to that effect, without imposing on him any re stoictions respecting the prices, which circumstances have caused to rise considerably. That of arms remains extremely high. and yet large °Weis are given. In general the. Turks are parsimonious ; the Government, e,peciAli, is even minable in its putcbase , , and will h. to every thing at the lowest pike. It i. only on oc• casions like the present crisis that it departs so far from its usual conduct in this respect, that the offers which it now makes almost seem liberal. The navigation from Semlin to Widdin has been ex tremely active, and almost uninterrupted; but an order has just been published at Widdin and 01 sous for every loaded vessel to take henceforth a matter) escort, which makes it suppo-ed that the 'Russians have been rein forced in Little Wallachia, and may easily approach the Danu'v.

We announce with vet y sincere reg, et the death of Major R. Haddocks, of his Majesty's 97th Regiment, and Agent of Government for the Kandyan P,ovinces of the three kirks, who was killed by an elephant on the 26th instant. The following account of the ci:cunistances attending Major Haddock's death ►s t .ken from the deposition of Charles Y►►ung ► a private of the 97th ltegin.ent ► who witnessed the melancholy event : Y.sterday eveninc: Major Haddock, Mr. Francis Bayley, and his brot h er, went out at lin:timell, to shoot a wild elephant that wa- in the jungle near that place. The gentlemen stationed themselves at a distance from each other outside the jungle, sou.e Cingale•e people going inside to drive the animal out. Thevlephant first came out where Mr. F. Bayley was stationed, who filed a shot, and the elephant retreated again. About half an hour after wards the elephant came out a second time near where Major Haddock and the deponent were posted. At that time the Messrs. Bayl , y had j hied theM, and they all fired tog , ther at the elephant, which stumbled, but recovered himself, and retired Ant° the jungle. The gentlemen then separated, hut n.et on the other side of the jungle, and loaded. The Cmgalese people were then again sent in to bear, Major Haddock placing the ginnlemen in positi.m at a distance from each other. &tidy afterwards the elephant came out of the jungle zact!y where Major Haddock and the deponent stood, and so cl.ne upon them that the Major had scarcely time to level his gun. Having filed, the Major instantly retired upon the di ponew, w ho then filed and wined the del hart. Major Haddock then ran round a bush, and the elephant, unfortunately coming in cons ct with him on the opposite side, se:zed htin with his trunk rou .d the body, threw him on the ground, and, placing his foot upon tf.e Major's breast, trampled up in his body. The deponent turned round f r a doub.e-barrel gun that was with a Las coryn, who, however, had disappeared. The deponent then went up, took hold of Major Haddock, and pulled him away from under the elephant ; upon which the elephant turned round and sent off. Major Haddock was not then quite dead, but apparently drawing his last breath ;he could not speak. The deponent tan for the doctor of the station, but the Major died previous to his return. Major Haddock was not less esteemed for his gentle manlike deportment in society than as being a gallant officer and a gund soldier. He had seen a great deal of el vice abroad, and in the course of the Peninsular War received three medals, as honour able testimonials of hiF distinguished services in the ficid. His loss sill be deeply felt by his brother officers, and by those who had the pleasure of his acquaintance; but, above all, by his affectionate and now disconsolate wi,:ow, Whom, with three ii,fant children, he has lelt behind to mourn his melanchAy and untimely fate. DESTRUCTIVE:itII.I7NOER STORM. FROM THE JAMAICA COURANT, OCT. 11. At S Iver Grove, in Hanover, on Tuesday last, as a negto boy and mule were proceeding from the castle perm, during a thunder storm, they were stench by ,the lightning, and we are sorry to say both were kiJled , on the scot. Ou Saturday last, off Lance's Bay, between Lucea and Green Island, as the sloop William, James, master, was proceedies on her voyage to Kingston from this port, she was taken in a violent squall, which, .though of short duration, was sufficient to warn the master to lessen sail, which was done accordingly. After the squad subsided, the men were in the act of hoisting the ' main sail, when, from the skirt of a passing thunder cloud, a severe electric shock, at one fell swoop, sent unhoustrd, unappointed, unanel'd," three tf the crew to their " long home," namely, H. W. Ball, mate, Matthew B ndlos., seaman, and another, a negro slave, belonging to the owner of the vessel. One of thes.' bodies were dreadfully lacerated and disfigured. The rest of Vie ciew, as well a s the Captain, felt the shock, and were prostrated on the deck. The Captain then sent below for the compass, when Captain Keiller, of this town, a passenger, who was in the cabin, came up )n deck, and tisok the helm. On the Captain's re turning with the compass, it was struck by another Rash, which broke the glass. From this shock Captain James was, with some difficulty, restored by the assis tance of Mr. So!omon Marks, and a few female pas sengers. The 1 wer mast as well as the top mast was shivered, but the sloop itself sustained no material in jury. The melancholy disaster, and the state of the vessel's masts, however, rendered ik,necessary to bear up to Lucea, which pull she reached on Sunday morn ing. An inquest, in the absence of the Coroner, was held before his Honour the Cusco., the Hon. ROBERT ALLwOOO, when a verdict was returned — " That the deceased seamen came by their deaths from having been struck by lightning." The following is an estract of a letter, on the same' subject, from Captain James Dealer, passenger in the William, dated Lucea, Miinday morning, Sept. 22: About two o'clock on Saturday we were taken with a terrible squall off the I end, so sudden, in fact, that it did not give time to take in all the proper sails: 'Those m , st requisite were, however, taken in. The squall continued, and the rain fell in torrents, accompanied with thunder and lightning. In a short time a dreadful flash of lightning came, and in the twinkling of an eye three unfortunate men were no more. The rest that were on deck were more or less stunned, and it was some time before they came to themselves. Another crap of thunder broke over the vessel in a manner I cannot describe. Fortunately, I was standing in the companion way, and that instant jumped to the helm, as poor James had gone down to the cabin for a compass, and no sooner lail it before me, than another tremendous flash came, by which 1 iota gined lie had been struck dead, and fallen down in the cabin; and, had it not been for Mr. Marks, GOD 'knows if ever he would have recovered. At the same instant the glass e f the compass was broken, and you may coo. crave my feelings at that moment were not to be en , vied, for the sight before me was really dreadful. I being the only one on deck that remained unhurt, while five men lay apparently dead before me, and another I show ing but.. faint signs of late. At this moment 1 was unassisted by the - Captain, whilst the wind, rain, thunder, and lightning coi tinned, and I every moment expected to meet the fate of the others. Mr. Marks' hrhaviour was most manly, rendering me every assist• Amer he possibly could, and his conduct throughout was ,host prai.eworthy till the unfortunate men were put under ground. I f irgot to mention that the same flash which killed the men, shivered the topmast to pieces, and the main-mast also muii splintered; but, in my opinion, she will be capable of proceeding to Kingiton as soon as Captain James can procure hands, for which purpose he is gone to Montego hay." We are sorry to learn that the residence of Mr. M'lntyre, nn theWi vdward-road, was struck with light ning during the heavy thunder storm cm Wednesday. About hef pa-t two o'clock a ball of fire sit uck the east corner, and another, as he conceived, struck the window sill, by which the walls were torn and shattered from east to west; all the sash frames were thrown out cf their places, and every pane of glass throughout the lictt,e destroyed, a, well as the sideboard and various vtfier articles of furniture. Mr. M.lntyre himself, we arc happy to say, eacared most providentially, although severely injured on the left side of the head by the electric fluid. ERRATUM.

A letter from Corfu :tees, that Mr. STSATFORD CANNING had withdrawn from the coufert _es of the Allied Ambassadors ; but this statement 'squires con fi• mAtion. It is also mentioned from the same place, that Count CAPO DTTIIIA had become extremely un- popular in Greece, in consequence (among other causes of discontent) of his refusal to convoke the Legislative Assembly. We have received t. e Algemeine Zeilung and Frank fort P.pers to the 16th inst. Beyond an article of an old date from B flit , these Papers cont .in n. thing of the least interest. Tie following are extracts: BERLIN, Nov. 8. By the Officers who have returned from the theatre of war, and particularly General Von Nosfits, we have received more circum stantial details of the lattet CTrlltt of this campaign. The Russians never had the intention of terminating the war in one campaign; they were from the first prepared for two, and all their measures were taken accordingly. In France people applied to this war the standard of Napoleon', campaigns, and thus, with too great preci pitation, believed what never was thought of ha Russia. As a winter campaign is impossible, the troops will go into winter 'quarters in the Principalities, but the siege of Silistria will be con tinued. The report of the fall of that fortress, which was circu lated some days ago on 'Change, appears to be unfounded. The quasi% Guards will return to Bessarabia.. Alt the Prussian Officers who have returned front the army agree in opinion, that Varna, in its present state, will be of more use to the Russians as • port than as a fortress. The affairs of the Estates of South Prussia seem to be hi a fair way of being arranged. Prince Sulkowski, the Chief President Baumann, who has just received patents of Nobility, and the Arch. bishop of Posen and Gresen, are here for that purpose. It is hoped that by the measures that will be adopted, every thing will be ar ranged to the satisfaction of the Prince.

The following anecdote, as an illustration i f the in creased importance which the most ordinary rumoer acquires as it passes from mouth to month, is given is a French Paper :—" There is (says the rein• r) at Bogcts a street called the Rue Royale, the residence of the principal merchants and shopkeei ers, which is thronged with idlers during the day. Don Jorge Lozano, a man of great merit. but of a lively imaginati so. soach did not quit him even upon the scaffold, to ss h . ch I.e was dragged, used to amuse himself by putting in mace the goires »touches of the Rue Royale He used to relate news at one end of the street, and, in half an hour after wards, go to the other end to hear it uith all the variations with which it had been adorned dosing its passage. lie bad the impudence to continue his trick at a time when political affairs became perplexing, and he was the fist to suffer from it ; one day, when be hail in this manner been commonica ing an ordinary r - moor, the general inquietude to a:teied it as it ran through the street, that when he heard it repeated at e.e ot' , er end he did not know it, as d became so alarmed that he returned to his house, and made preparations for S, ing from Bogota wit's his property. A point of vase importance has lately been decided at Bruesels—namely, whether a person cm be arrested abroad upon a bill of etchange given in England, by the bill being transferred to some person te i.ling in the same realm as the acceptor or indorse: ? The fact, of the case, by which it will be best explained, are riese -11 hen in England, a Mr. Flower accepts' a bill for the accommodation of another. From this t erson a NI. Fisher, an attuiney, is Walbrook-ssuildings, receives the bill, and endorses it to Messrs. Collide and Co. the bankers, who endorse it again to a Clegg. of Antwerp, requesting that lie would pass the bill to his Belgian banker, in order to enable an arre•t. The bill became due and payable here, previous to worth the Belgian bankeis sends it back again, so as in due lion to be presented and protested. The bill in that state is returned to Brussels, and Mr. Fowler attested upon it. Against this arrest Mr. Fowler (after having been caret , ruled in the Cour de Prfutiere Instance) appealed to the Superior Court. The grounds of appeal, and Or ques tions discussed by the Court, were J. %lel er a Court, which has no power to subpoena witnesses from another ceuntry,tu mire or disprove the equities of tt e bill, could be qualified to give judgment upon it? 2 . sA'hether the law, which authorises the provisional ar rest of foreigner., embraced the c•se of a debt con tracted between foreigners in a foreign country; tx whether it was not merely intended to give n hives a summary recourse against foreigners who had incurred debts with them on the spot ?
