The labour of the committee, the examination made of it, and the approbation given it by the cousulative committee of Cardinals, a new code has resulted, con tained and published under three heads, " Reformation of the system of public administration ;" " Reformation of the civil procedure;' " Reformation of the tariff of t ries, in judicial proceedings." By this new plan, the to great number of delegations is reduced ; special j riges have been substituted to some tribunals of the lost instance; the number of Magistrates has been re duced in some place', some insignificant tribunals sup pressed, and what Rome has long wanted, a tribunal of commerce ha, been erected. A better composition of the Councils is provided for by proportioning in them the number of persons-belonging to the different orders of the State.. The nobility, says the wrota proprio, preserves in them the destination which it should enjoy in all civilized states; the class of proprietors acquires, besides its rights of suffrage in common deliberation, more ample and unrestricted attribute, for the care of its own affairs. " But what has chiefly excited our vigilance," continues his Holiness, " is to. maintain in all its lustre and vigour, the episcopal jurisdiction re-established in the exercise of all its prerogatives,'as it enjoyed already in the time of our predecessor, Benedict XIV. of blessed memory." Lastly, the Costs are rendered to a certain and mode rate standard, ecclesiastical causes are to be pleaded as hitherto in Latin, and. secular causes in the vulgar tongue, " in' order," says the decree, " to suppress that offensive absurdity, contrary to good administration of justice, in which everything should be regular and uni form, to hear at once in the same sitting, two different languages, when affairs of the subjects of the same Government are treated of."

In a preceding column we have given an account of a proposed reform of the Code of Penal Law, by the Port. It appears from the Etoile, that some executions have taken place - at Corunna, on account of political offences. —Nine men suffered for what may be called the Con stitutional cause. The crime imputed to them was, the condemnation of 51 persons attached to the Despotism and Inquisiticn—a charge which, in all probability, was unfounded.

The G ivernment has issued a circular letter relative V> the clerks of foreign houses, who travel in the Elec torate of Hesse, to obtain orders for foreign manufac tured goods, who have hitherto enjoyed an exemption from all public taxes, which tends CO hies ease the num ber of these travellers, to the great injury of the trade in the interior of the country. Henceforward, every traveller who comes to collect orders 'for foreign manu factured goods, shall pay first, a tax of three crowns at least, to nine crowns at most, for every three months that he stops in the Eiectol ate of Hesse, on his commer cial affairs ; and thi:, whether he remains the whole of the three months or nor. This tax goes to the public trea sury. Secondly, he shall pay a tax of eight gOod grns (about one shilling) per diem, to the poor of the place where he resides. ---- - It migl Imnd IN Pacha of Egypt." Though the Ottoman fleets are by no means in a condition as they are made to appear in the tales of the romance writers, it cannot be denied that this campaign cannot be satisfactory to the Porte; since, except the destruction of Ipsara, none of the objects of the great preparati , ms have been obtained. The ,Austrian Observer adds, that the official accounts of the Greeks themselves by no means confirm the tales told, by the Correspondents at Odessa, &c. They make only seven ships of war destroyed, not one of them be longing to the Captain Pacha's own fleet. CONSTANTINOPLE, OCTOBER es.

A crook which came ashore gave the first intimation of this dreadful event. Some of the boars have since been found. Her cargo was a very valuable one, but scarce a vestige of it is to be seem THE EQUITABLE ASSURANCE COMPANY. Yesterday a Quarterly General Court of the Members of this Society was held, and crowded to excess, in con sequence of a notice of motion by a Member. to divide a bonus of 9.5 per cent, upon the policies of assurance at this office, in eel tarn described contingencies. The RECORDER took the Chair, and the Actuary read the minutes of the last Court. LAW REPJRT. -7 The BECORDMR then informed the meeting, that the Directors had prepared a Report, which, with the per mission of the Court, would be now.vead for the infor ,, atiotr of the members. Mr. BUSHMAN rose and said, that as he intended to withdraw the notice of motion which he had given, and which bad, he believed, led to the assemblage of such an unexampled attendance of Members, because he was advised that the object of it could not, consistently with the bye-laws of the Society, be legally carried into effect. There were, they all knew, three classes of as surances effected by the Society ; one class insured in the year 1816, and alive in the year 1820, had become entitled to a great addition upon their policies ; a se cond class, who were insured subsequently, had certain contingent additions; and there was a third class who insured after 1820, that might be involved in something like a breach of faith, if the contemplated arrangement were, under existing circumstances, pressed upon them. —Under the-legal - operation of these circumstances, be begged leave to withdraw the motion of which he had given notice, and to leave the matter inother hands. Mr. Swear said, that he had a notice of motion to make, which was simply this—That it should be re ferred to the Court of Directors to consider and report whether it would be advisable to cease to effect assur ances upon the footing of their existing system ; and whether it would be advisable to revise and open a new system for the new Members who may be acquired, without prejudice to the present Members, and having regard in their pecuniary arrangements to the existing pike of the public funds? A very long discussion then arose upon the point of form, whether this notice of motion should be inserted on the minutes, and pub lished and advertised in the circulars sent to Members? Several Gentlemen from the country observed, that being out of the limits of the twopenny post, they were left without notice of the special meetings of the So ciety, in which they were so interested, and they de sired that they should be furnished with letters, the postage of which they would themselves pay, apprising them of special meetings; To this it was replied, that a great burden would be imposed upon the office, if 4000 additional letters, which would be the number re quired, were to be constantly sent to country Members : it was, however, hinted, that any individuals who de sired notice might have it, by leaving their names with the clerks.

Mr. §vonsst rote to oppose the motion fora Manage r of this property.—The motion was opened nn a forme r day, praying to have a Manager, on the grounds the. Mr. Benelli was abroad, and that there was no prospect at present of the house being opened this season._A Gentlemah behind the bar interposed an objection, %vita a view of delaying the discussion of the motion. • His LORDSHIP considered the only question to be, Whether the motion should now be gone on si ith nr sot ? and that this was to determine whether or not the Opera should be open this season. For his own pat the did not care twopence whether it was or not. Mr. SUODEN proceeded.—.He appeared for Messrs. Yallop and Chippindall, who had entered into a cove. nant to the amount of 20,000 i. as an indemnity to Mr. Ebers against loss from his engagements with Mr. Ile nellieand he submitted that the Court had no jurisdic tion to interfere in the manner prayed by this motion. The object of this motion was to give the one party all the benefits of this legal contract, and to deprive the lessee of all his tights, by taking the legal ownership out of his hands, and putting it /into the hands of 'another person, without a trial at law. Indeed, Mr. Ebers wished to be appointed Manager himself, for he had begged leave to be allowed to propose himself but be was the last person in the %solid that his (Mr. Sugden's) clients would approve of; because the first Bill in this cause was filed against Mr. Ebers, charging him with mismanagement during the season of 1823, by which a loss of 10,0001. arose, which was fixed upon Messrs..Yallop and Chippindall. Mr. NAUGHTON followed on the same side. Mr. Hermit appeared for the Marquis of Hertford, the Earl of Glengal, Colonel Cooke, and the Hon. Henry De Roos, and opposed the motion. His clients ,bad, unfortunately, entered into a security for the due ,payment of the rent to Mr. Ebers, and if the Court would release them from responsibility upon these bonds of surety, they had no objection whatever to his Lord ;ship appointing a Manager. Mr. Tammove was with Mr. Horne. It was stated that half a year's rent (500014 was now due and unpaid, but he did not seek to get off paying that. Mr. HART replied, if his Lord.hip could suppose Mr. 'Benelli to have any character but that of an absconded insolvent, and a man resolved by his absence to destroy this property, he would admit that the prayer of the motion could not be granted. His LORDSHIP now considered the case much more complicated than at first it appeared to him to be. Two indentures had been executed—one a lease on the pre mises to Mr. Benelli, the other (of even date, namely, August, 1822) an indenture of bargain and sale, which went to destroy a part of the former indenture. It would be impossible for the Court to grant this motion with out looking at both these indentures; and how far the granting of them would go to release the sureties was a subject which required much serious consideration. Mr. Harr was perfectly aware of the dilitcultiesin the case. His Loansine--Why did not these Noble Persons,or Gentlemen, or whatever they are, become sureties for the payment of the sala ries of tie performers, as weU as the payment of the rent? Mr..lAmos—Because they were too wise to trust Mr. Benelli to did. a greater extent than they His Lotman,— What did the receipts of the House amount to last year ? One of the Solicitors said £30,000, and the other £45,0r0. His Loamstr—And how much, if it be a fair question, was to be paid for singing and dancing? Mr. Haar—X6o,ooo. His Laminar expressed his astoolibmrnt. Mr. HART proceeded—Mr. Benelli had entered into a contract to keep all the machinery, dresses, &c. in a state fit for the public eye, and the Theatre open at the proper seasons ; and as Mr. Benelli was not doing that, he thought the Court would find sufficient ground to warrant its interference. His LORDSHIP said, that the indenture of lease de mised the scenery, for instance, but that the deed of even date absolutely assigned it. • The question to be decided depended on a scrutinous examination of the deed of bargain and sale, which his Lordship would read to-night, and state, in the morning, what he thought of it.—His Lordship rose at a quarter before two v'clock. COURT OF KING'S. BRNCH, DECEMBER e. INITHRIDGII V. RI.UNDRN AND SIARTINRAV. Mr. SCARLITT stated the case for the plaintiff. This was ap action brought for the recovery of £lOO, which the defendants had received for the use of the plaintiff. The defendants were the proprietors of the house well known by the name of the Whitbreacnrewer y ; they were also mortgagees of the Red Lion public-house, in Fleet-lane. Theplaintiff had purchased their interest in this house by paying £100; and it was agreed that the mortgage should be withdrawn, and the title to the premises made over to him, on the further pay ment of £l,lOO. Mr. Gustiest appeared for the defendants. It ap peared that they had a mortgage of 13,400 on the house, which belonged to a person of the name Id Well s. lending, however, that Wells was not likely to pay this sum, they entered into a composition of the demand, and consented to receive £1,200. Wells had , entere.l into this composition, in the hope that Guthridge would be able to dispose of the premises by Auction for a larger sum. Wells, however, failed in this expectation, •iiid purchased a release of the composition for 1:35. The plaintiff now claimed the repayment of his deposit fa £100; but the defendants resisted this claim, and re quired the fulfilment of the stipulation, and the re.lemp• non of the l inortgage, by paying the balance of £l,lOO. The LORD Cuter Justice submitted for the consi deration of the Jury —lst, Whether the Money was paid by the plaintiff to Wells or to the defendants? and, secondly, whether it was paid as an instalment of the mortgage ? The, Jury retired for a few minutes, and returned a verdict for the plaintiff—tamages ROIHIRTSON si. FANSHAW. This was an action to recover damages for a serious injury, occasioned by di icing over the plaintiff, a poor woman, near Somerset-house. It appeared horn Oar Mr. Sweet's notice of motion was then entered on the minutes, and an Exit aordinary General Court was ordered to be summoned, for its consideration, this day fortnight. It was then proposed that, for the purpose of securing the efficacy of the intended motion, by the requisite confirmation of the business of one General Court by another, there should be convened another Extraordi nary General Court on the 23d December. This led to some discuskion, and the notice for con .veninr,° the Court, on the 23d of December, was aban doned, on the ground that they could not, as at preterit advised, anticipate the decision at the Court to be held this day fortnight; and that when that was known, and not before, it would be time enouLh to call for the con firmation of another Court. The Report was ultimately postponed until the next Meeting, it being said, that as the Report was founded upon the intention of a Member to make a motion, which he had afterwards withdrawn, it was premature, as matters stood, to consider of it. Mr. Stmt: gave notice of a motion fur the next Court day, to render valid two policies of insurance assigned over by two indivi duals who had gone to America without giving tke requisite notice, upon the payment by the holders of the additional premium, and satisfaction being given that they took immediate steps for doing so von being apprised of the departure of the parties. • \ d , . . + , , . 0 - , • , • . .. • - ,ecting '• , NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. ing to • ` , 4 4 • 'CO RT-M RTIAg.. . : ~•.. .1 s ' and A Court-Migial a • Majesty's shkellearese. i inople, aun'tholl* of Nov : r . for the4 . l oal ocWsi.tioat eat is. &alveolus DIXON seaman of his 'II brill NO1611(letely on th e ieseeof Africa), fotggphliing, p tl) tie intent to murder. lair. , of the G.

ADELPHI THEATRE. . —s o b. A new Piece, in th ree acts, entitled The Life of an Actor, waa.proliced at this Theatre last night. It is a new version of the story, or succession of incidents already published, although, perhaps, not very exten sively read. WRINCII, in the part of a Stage-struck Printer; WILKINsoN (his first appearance this season), in a Dramatic Green-grocer ; Rzays, in the Ma nager of a Theatre-Rural, Finchley • and Powza, in an Irish Man of Letters, exerted themselves with their usual sticces,and were loudly applauded through out. The Piece has been arranged, we understand, by Mr. PEAK', and contains some very capital specimens of that Gentleman's talent. As in most first represen tations, some trifling inaccuracies were perceptible, .but many of the scenes were very effective. The whole of the first, and part of the second act, appeared to hang heavily; however, by judicious curtailment, and the degree of perfection which results from repetition, we have little doubt that The Life of an Actor may be rendered very attractive. Some popular music is in troduced with good effect ; but we could not help re. gtetting, that the laughing chorus from Der Freischutx was marred, by the evident want of rehearsal or practice by the performers. On the whole, the Managers of the Adelphi have given a new proof of their anxiety to merit the patronage by which their previous efforts have been rewarded. Notwithstanding the dreadful :torn) which raged, the house was crowed to an overflow long before the commencement of the performance. Dispatches, date,' the 22d of September, were re ceived yesterday, at the India Board, from Persia. ---- Yesterday afternoon, at two oclock, a Cabinet Codn cil assembled at the Foreign Office Downing-street, which was at tended by the same Cabinet Ministers who attended the Cabinet Council on Wednesday, with the addition of Lord Bazi.ar and Mr. Husatssow. The Cabinet continued in deliberation till half-past five o'clock. The Duke of GLOUCESTER -visited his Royal Duchess yesterday, who passed a good night on Wednesday night, and was much better yesterday. Her Royal Highness also received visits from the Duchess of KS" the Princess Soma, and the Princess FLODOR The air of Blighton is recommended, by the medical advisers of the amiable Duchess of Dumont' as likely to restore and renovate her health. That place possesses t he peculiar character of a bracing, and a soft and mild atmosphere at the same time. The Duke of NORT/lUMBERLAND is the solitary indi vidual of any importance who opposes the erection of the Thames Quay, or splendid ornamental as weU as useful promenade and car riJge-way, contemplated to extend from Westminster to London &Mgr, along the banks of the river. Lord THANE'''. who is now in Paris, has been con fined to his hotel by a fit of the gout. _ _ _ NIr.FAIiQVH a has been staying at his noble edifice, nimbill Abbey, during the whole summer, not ostentatiously, but quietly and hospitably entertaining a select number of friends in succession. The Abbey has, to a certain extent, been re-furnished, and, in addition to articles for domestic comfort, there are several rare and costly articles, which the wealthy owner has purchased since the sale. People hit up their hands and eyes with astonishment, when they hear that Twenty Pounds, invested in a Item. Dim 'Morns Mum in Bits, has produced Seven or Eight Hundred Pounds; do they forget that less than one-fourth part of that sum, risked on the lGth of this Month, must obtain for somebody more than Twenty Thousand Pounds ?—All other speculatio►s are mere re tiles, compared with the chance of an adventure in such a Lottery Scheme as the present, in which the gain is so great, and the risk next to nothing, - , . • • ' 1 , I • . • ` • • . . • • • , • ~• . • --"`""*- - • , . - `A • - '4 • ~ .. 6 E ~. , . fuhao - r SOK" 4 - Mr. thl ..
