Meantime, however, :he q, re k s o n bring relief to Missolonghi without impediment." TRIESTE, AUGUST VI. The following is an account of the events at Missolonghi, es !ratted from private letters. corning f r om respectable authority: •• Af ter. several Christian (European) agents had come forward as ; radiators, and bad exerted themselves to the utmost to persuade the prrison of Missolonghi, by great promises, to submit to the enemy, , ii order thereby to accelerate the restoration of tranquillity in Greece, reresenting that the numbers of the enemy, both by sea r.d land, were extremely great, that the whole Pelopennesus had Omitted to Ibrahim, and that Missolonghi alone now remained, in the defence of which so much blood would flow in vain, . Su. he brave Noto Bozzaris rose in the Council of War, ,„ a sa id, ' Rather shall the enemy plant his standard over , u r .b.res and our ashes, than we will accept such propcials. The perslni who thus intervene will do well to refrain in future f;em such proposals, otherwise they may meet with a more un welcome reception. The Greeks are ready to meet, with courage, any force whatever.' t With e th a is answer the Christian mediators When h Cptain Path* taw that his worthy wire dismisses. friends could do nothing, be wrote to MehMed Redschid Pacha, that as the Greeks would not listen to any amicable proposals, and tbvir Beet was craiding near his, he could not stay ant longer, for fear of being attacktd. He, therefore, thought it necessary that Tledschid should, without delay, make another attack on Blind longlii.. This was done on thy lit of August, at four o'clock in the morning. -At the same time 100 large and small Turkish boats, with 4,000 ntentsn board penetrated into the channel of lisaolonghl. The besiqirg army of itedschid Pacha amounted to 55,000 men. The cannonade was so heavy on both sides, that the neighbouring ;oasts trembled. When the firing ceased, Capt. Buratovich, of :he Austrian ship Vigilant, approached the fortresa, and heard the cry of joy of the Greeks, SAW the standard of the Cross waving in triumph en the walls of blissolonghi, and the disgraced assailants ronating, after having suffered great loss. This was on the let of Augibt. (In the same day the Turkish fleet was attacked by 13 Greek chips, which burnt a frigate, a corvette, and a great schooner, atultook one brig. The Austrian Captain arrived in Corfu, 14th ..gust, where an English frigate had also arrived from Nlisso. lambi: The Captain of this frigate reiates, that above 1.',000 killed and wounded Turks lay in the ditches of the fortress of 3-lissolonghi,. not including the great numbers in the adjacent mutiny. The Lord High Commissioner Adams, himself, seemed :o re i nici! with the Greeks ; he said repeatedly, that the. Greek soldier and their Commanders deserved the greatest rewards ; he iimself would not fail to give his Government A particular account .4 what bad passed. Ibrahim Pacha is in a situatiton rot inch better. lle is closely surrounded and the Peloponnesus ,‘ 'II not listen to any of his overtures. In Zante there are seven or eight individuals, who are paid by Ibrahim Pacha, to serve him* as spies. When they saw the Greek fleet on its way to Mis•olonghi, they dispatched a small boat with a letter to him. Contrtry winds obliged it to return; and when it landed at Zante the peurle assembled iu a tumultuous manner, seized the crew, and handled them very roughly : and at the end they were con confined by order of the lonian Government. Almost all the lonians are very much in favour of their fellow-countrymen."

DOVER, SEPT. 12.—Coustriey, the American pheno• menon, having announced this - day, at four o'clock, as the time for his " second and last terrific flight from Dover Heights to the Ropewalk;' at an early hour this morning the preparations were made for the descent, and flags on the heights and ropewalk, gave notice to the neighbourhood of his being ready for the perform lance of this daring exploit. Fiom ten until two o'clock the roads leading into the town were crowded with carriages and pedestrians of almost every description ; indeed, the town has not been so full since the arrival of the Allied Sovereigns. At three o'clock the rope walk, parade, bridges, heights, house-tops, and every place that would afford a view, were crowded beyond description. Four o'Clock arrived : all was anxiety ; every eye was strained to the point of descent; three pistols being discharged. gave notice that all was ready. At 20 minutes before five he started in most magnificent style. amidst the plaudits of the assem bled thousands of spectators, and performed it in 16 secmds, on a plane of about 1,400 fees, without the least inconvenience, discharging a pistol inhis descent. Courtney is a natural son of the late popular actor and dramatist, John George Holman, and as his circum• stances are not very brilliant, he solely depends on the liberality of the public for a remuneration for this aeronautic exploit. Letters from Seville state, that numbers of arrests take place there daily, but generally among the lower orders of the people. On the ISth ult. at five in the afternoon, a vessel entered Cadiz, having on board several persons from. Seville, but it was not known what was their quality or number; they were kept in 'the hold, and were strongly guarded. A French ship. of war arrived the same day from Rochefort, having on board a detachment of 280 sub-officers and soldiers. Accounts from Hamburgh state, that the trade in , linens was in great activity in Silesia, and that the prices had risen. The fair'at Frankfort had been very animated this year, and there %sere more than 500 foreign dealers there. Cloth, cottons, and woollen stuffs were much enquired after. A letter from Flushing states, that the pilot duties on English vessels are now placed on an equality with those of the country. The metropolis was visited by a thunder-storm yester day morning, in the course of which there was one very loud and long-continued clap, which must have been immediately over the City, from the flash being almost instantly followed by the rolling thunder. Fags.—A fire broke out about one o'clock this morning, in the house of Mr. Oliver, in Hamilton Place, New Road, Battlebridge, which destroyed the same, and a quantity of building materials. Tuesday morning 'a fire broke out on the premises of Mr. Thompson, baker, in High-street, Poplar.—lt c ommenced in a shed, wherein a quantity of flour and shavings were deposited ; but from the timely arrival of the engines, and a plentiful supply of water, it was confined to the outbuildings. Tuesday, a girl 12 years old, fell into the river behind Walcot-street, Bath, when a man named Lyon, jumped in with his clothes on, and succeeded in rescuing her. Mr. ACTON, surgeon, using the means prescribed by the Humane Society, succeeded in restoring animation Sunday morning, during Communion Service in the Kentish Town Chapel, the congregation was thrown into the utmost alarm and confusion, occasioned by a Gentleman rushing into the chapel to seek refuge from .a dog, supposed to be mad, which was closely pursuing him; but before he could gain admittance he wad se verely bitten in the leg. Several females who were seated near the door, on witnessing the scene, uttered loud and distressing shrieks, and the tumult rose to such a height that several persons hurried from their pews, aasious to discover who was already a sufferer, and to make their escape from the infuriated animal. The . Minister, who seemed scarcely conscious of what was going on, paused abruptly in the service, and it was not till several minutes had elapsed that order was suffici ently restored for the service to continue. Meanwhile a crowd of persons had collected about the Chapel, and the dog, after running into the fields towards Hampstead, was there overtaken and killed. CAUTION.-Mr. Young, a respectable inhabitant O r Hackney, yesterday stated to the Magistrate atWorship street Office, that he called on Monday at a Tavern, where he had a beef-steak, with pLkled cucumbers and onions, which were fetched from a neighbouring oil abop ; when, on reaching home, he was seized with the most excruciating pain, and, on informing a medical man of what he had eaten, a suspicion arose that the malady was caused by some poisonous ingredient min gled with the cucumbers, which was confirmed on seeing the matter ejected from the stomach; and the Surgeon assured him, a short delay in applying for aid would have been fatal. The Magistrate inquired the shop at which the articles were bought? but Mr.Y. said, to make it publicly known might prove injurious to perhaps an innocint man; and, as his only motive was to guard the public against the deleterious article, he declined ;o give his address. htherizi. A, thew Come•iy.w4ta produced at this Theatre last ereainz, under the titie of Yawl Pim, from the pen df Mr. PooLit. In the &nerality of komedies there is a major and a minor plot, the latter being; of 'Cowie, subservient to, and intimately ctionetted ‘..i,th, the former.. Not so,. believer, with Pea N. It com prises two plots, whit!), with the exception of the links of union afforded by thelharacter of Pry (Mr. Limn), have little or nothing to do with each other. The fol- Jo wing is a sketch of the-two stories:— frielierties (Mr: Pots), is induced, by the united villainy of his housekeeper, Mrs. &1111;(21rs. Owego), and his steward Grasp (Mr. Yossiseas), to believe that big nephew; SesiErs (Mr.W. JOHN. son), his treated him with the most cruel neglect. The letters that bass been beat ems to time written by Irstherhoi to Somers, have been stepped by Mrs. Aski•ond Group, and those which have been addressed by the nephew to the uncle, have also been disposed of •by the saute bands, foe the purpose of securing to themselves the fortune of the unsUspeeting old Gentleman, and of inducing hiM he disinherit his atom Friendship and roguery hold no cum. Amnion. Mrs. &belt and Grasp mutually detest each other, al though the latter proposes marriage to make their interests one,' led to mere the secrecy of both. as to the machinations they have been constantly carrying on against the innocent Sonteri. Mrs. Sstetki however, aims at the hand of the master, who falls into her snares, and is about to reward her supposed fidelity and attach ment by uniting his fate with her's, when her real character is dis covered by the exertions of his friend, Colonel Hardy (Mr. W. Flat us), and the never-exhausted curiosity of Paul Pry. The mar riage is of course broken off, and Mrs. Salk dismissed with de served disgrace. As we have before said, the other business of the Piece consists of a distinct plot. Colonel Hai* has resolved to marry his daughter Eliza (Miss P. GLOVER) to the son of an old friend. Harry Stanley (Mrs. Viral's-err), but from a determination to command bis family as absolutely as be does his regiment, he °conceals from his daughter the name of her intended husband.— Elise, whom the Colonel fondly believes to be a model of simpli city, has taken the liberty of providing herself with a lover in secret, who happens to be the very person her laler has chosen. — Many difficulties are, as usual, passed through, and some dis guises successfully assumed. The ingenuity of Pfitsbe (Madame Viewers), the confidential maid of EL a, is always at hand to pre vent detection, until the proper opportunity arrives for disclosure ; and entreaties of. forgiveness, which are, of course, granted, and the union of the lovers, which was originally contemplated by the Colonel, conclude the Piece. In the plot, or rather plots, of which the above is a slight sketch, there is, perhaps, but little novelty. Tile character of Pahl Pry, however, combines in itself a fund of humour ; it is drawn to the very life. Every village can produce a Pry,--a meddling Malaprop, who investigates every circumstance with which he has nothing to do, and who constantly puts everything and everybody into confusion, by retailing the produce of his impertinent curiosity from one person to another. This character was most admirably hit off by Ltsiron. Without him the Piece would have been but little, Tot nobody else could have done justice to the part. The intention of the Author has been evidently to throw tbe 1 principal interest into this character. It contains con siderable comic humour, and kept the audience in 1 mirthful mood from the beginning to the end of the l l Piece. The part of Colonel Hardy was represented bj FA RREN with great ability. Mrs. WAYLETT, as Harry Stanley,. - displayed much vivacity, and made a way impassioned, lover. Madame Venus sang two de lightful ballads, the Lover's Mistake, and Cherry Ripe, and in both was warmly encored. The " littk inquiry of Mr;Ltarox, as to the good feelings of the audience towards the iepetition of the Piece, was answered by applause from every hand, and Mr. Pools may claim the merit of again having successfully exerted his talents to amuse the Public. The House was full almost to an overflow. • VO4IICSHIRE MUSICAL FESTIVAL. YORK,. MONDAY. This city is filling rapidly with company. Tne car riages have been rolling into the town during the whole day, and the success of the undertaking is no longer in suspense. Tickets to the amount of 8,50(1. have been already sold, and the maximum calculation of 20,000/. is now considered as sure as if it were in the Bank. Scarcely a family of distinction in the county, unless suffering under some domestic bereavement, will be absent; and we number already amongst the arrivals, as they appear in the Register's book : The Archbishop of York, at his seat at Bishopthorpe ; the Duke of Leeds, Earl Fitzwilliam, Lord and Lady Harewood, Lord Mil ton, Lord Normanby, Lord and Lady Dundas, Marchioness Corn wallis, Earl Darnley, Lord Galway, the Bishop of Kilmore. Lord and Lady Thynne, Sir George Armytage, Sir Charles Anderson, Sir Robert Bateson, Sir George Caley, the Hon. Thomas Dundas, the Hon. Henry Lascelles, Sir Wm. Milner, Mr. Brougham, and a vast number of others. The number of Clergy on the Register's list is very large, and there are several families from Scotland and Ireland, and some from the Continent. The Earl of Scarborough has been prevented from attending ; but his Lordship has sent a donation of 501. rq the stewards, in aid of the charity funds. The arrangements in every department are on the most liberal scale. No expense has been spared to ten der this one of the most Famptuaus musical treats that, was ever presented to an English audience. The re hearsals to-day have been repeated and long continued, and the chorusses and all the other parts of the per formances are complete. Some difference of opinion exists as to the galleries in the Cathedral ; but the pre wailing opinion is, that while they enlarge the accom modation for the audience, they will in no degree de tract from the effect of the coup died; that point the . experience of tomorrow, which is looked forward to with no ordinary anxiety, will decide. The new music hall, built expressly for the occasion, at an expense of £6,000, not of £6OO, is, perhaps one of the most hand some and best.constructed concert-rooms in the kingdom —opening out as it does from the splendid Assembly rooms, designed by Lord Burlington, the effect is mag nificent, and the dimensions are so ample as to afford accommodation to an audience of two thousand per sons. The length of this chaste, classical edifice within is ninety-five feet by sixty, and its height 45 feet. The walls are tinted a pale straw colour, aid yellow marble pilasters of the lonic Order serve to relieve and to decorate the interior. A richly ornamental frieze, three feet six inches deep, modelled after the antique by C. Russi, passes between the capitals and the cornice. The ceiling is divided into compartments of marble inlaid with cedar, which to an English eye appears unique t though it has the sanction of classical authority. This building is vested in trustees for the benefit of the York-Gorunty Hospital, and the Leeds, Hull, and Sheffield Infirmaries, and will be used only for their benefit. To-night the festivities commence with a ball at the Assembly-rooms, and already the rolling of the carriages announces the approach of the company. When old Ebor was the seat of imperial power, and when Constantine diew his first brcath this city, the splendour of the scene could scarcely be more gay than that with which we are surrounded, and the Roman dames could not outshine in beauty or ac complishments What is preparing to rise upon us.

Yesterday was the day appointed for the third, and, as it proved, the final contest, fur the superb silver cup and cover, given by th. • Gentlemen composing the Yacht Club. At two o'clock the boats got under weigh. The Vends had the lead, and, with wind abaft, kept it in fine style up to Waterink, bridge. The Venus, Spitfire. Fortitude, Lady Louisa,and Sylp't were now the headmost boats, the Venus still keeping her way. At Hungerford the Fortitude, Spitfire, and Royal Eagle were abreast of each other, but the Venus got through Westminster-bridge firss- Here again the boats changed situntiens, the Royal Eagle gained tea the Venus, and the Fortitude and Sylph closely pressed them but the Spitfire still remained the fourth boat. The same course wis kept by the boats until they reached the Red-house, at Battersea, when the Venus, still keeping the lead, ran away. The Spitfire, Royal Eagle, and Fortitude were now abreast. The boats kept their respective stations, until rounding the boat, when the Venus shot a-head again, followed by the Royal Eagle and Sylph. The Sylph, however, seemed to get a-head, but the Lady Louisa got by her, and the wind having freshened, the Venus, Lady Louisa, and Sylph became the headmost boats. Down the Rivet the coined excited the greatest interest. At Battersea-bridge the Vesta was a-head by about three boats' lengths; the Royal Eagle fourth boat, while the Lady Louisa and Sylph played with each other, until, in order to get to the windward, the Lady Louisa was placed nearly on her beam ends. The general cry now was," Its all up,"—" the Lady's done," " she's going down " The Venus had now the ad vantage, and in the opinion cif some the cup was hers. She kept her way down, closely followed by the Lady Louisa, until they ar rived at the King's Arms, when the Venus, in order to " keep her water," endeavoured to make " half water," and veered. The L..de Louisa took advantage of the error, and kept close inshore, until ,be had got the wind tang in her 0 peak." and, haying but some few hundred yards to run, she won the prize. On coming in she was loudly cheered, and it What justice fogey, that, but for the error committed by the Venus, she mum have wonthe prise. PARTRIDGE SIIOOTING MATCH.

The parties were Mr. Briscoe, a known good shot of the Ashton Club ; and Messrs. Clementson and Kemp. They started in different directions, from Stoke Bucks, and Mr. Briscoe bagged 62 bead; Mr. Clements 60; and Mr. Kemp 58. The whole together missed nineteen shoti- PEDESTRIANIS3L A start which has made a stir in the Sporting World, took place from Shoreditch-turnpike, at one o'clock yesterday morning.
