which were in the forts of the Dardanelles have been sunsmooad • to the Capital, so that that side is new open to any attack. This would excite little notice, as the Ring of England's Speech on Proroguing Parliament armed that Russia had engaged not to make any hostile attempt on that side; but the Musselmen are now disposed to consider it as a certain indication, that the Divan has already opened the way to secret engagements with England, and •entures to withdraw its troops from that coast, in full conildence that assistance will be afforded it in case of need. It is said that the Russian prisoners taken as Esti Stamboul, were all massacred in a fit of rage. Their number is stated at 500 or 600 men. BRRMANSTADT, Sari. S. The late account of the surprises( some Russian redoubts in the camp before Schumla, on the 27th August, ieems to be confirmed. According to some accounts, which are probably exaggerated, the loss of the Russians amounted to 5,000 men killed, and 21 pieta of cannon. JASSY, Aust. 27. A regular Post.ollice is to be established here by the Russians, in order to facilitate the transmission of couriers to Berlin, St. Peters burgh, and to the various points upon which our army may be' operating. The exportation of corn having been prohibited has oc tasioned a considerable fall In price, from which it is now likely to recover, as the necessary magazines for the army had brim plenti fully supplied previously to the breaking out of hostilities. HA NISURGH, Styr. IS. The Ontrrke de Sokyrpte of the 9th of August says that Lord Cochrane is shortly to return to Greece, with two new steam-boats. Colonel Gordon, who has left the Greeks three times, declaring he would never return, is arrived at Nspoli di Romania. Ile brings a considerable sum of money with him, said to be his own private property. In another article, dated Poros, Aug. 5, the same Paper announces tho arrival of two small French yowls at that port—the one with a sum of 500,000 - franca on board, the other with a cargo of gunpowder., and other necessary stores. These supplies are to be delivered over to the President by Id. de St. Denys. An Ame rican vessel, freighted with provisions and wearing apparel, sent by the friends of the Greeks in the United States, is also mentioned os having arrived. EXCHANGES ON LONDON. HAssoacw.

The idea now generally entertained here of the result of the operations against the Turks is very different from that conceived at the beginning of the campaign. Almost every body is convinced that the Russians will not be able to reach Constantinople this year, even if they should succeed in taking Varna and all the fortresses on the Black Sea. The season is fat advanced, and the navigation of the Black Sea will be next month as precarious as the convey ance of provisions and ammunition is difficult in a country which has no regular roads, and in which an army is confined to its own resources. The moat experienced officers agree in opinion that operations should be suspended for the present, and that the Rue sian army should leave the sieges of Sebumla, Varna, and Silist& to take their regular course, and meantime merely maintain its positions, without proceeding to other enterprises, which can only be prosecuted in the good season. The plan often pursued with success by Napoleon, of pushing forward large masses, without regarding the fortresses and local hindrances In his rear, is extremely hazardous in a country which affords no resources, and is well known to have been a principal cause of the failure of the campaign of 1812. It is affirmed that the Russian army will now undertake a similar manoeuvre, and pass Mount Ileetnus in a great mass at one point. It is said that this project is spoken of in our higher circles as one of which the succesf is very dubious. It is affirmed, howeler, that all the arrangements are already made, and that as soon as the Emperor Nicholas has reached the army it will% put in motion to advance in a mass against Adrianople.

The Consolmarket remains still in the same inactive state u for *event days past, and this being the last week of the holidays with the Hebrews, tends to damp the speculation in the market.

WORTHING, Stn. 21. Such is the attractive character of this place, that it is, and for the last six weeks has been, filled to an over flow, and may boast of containing as brilliant an assem blage of fashionable company as any of its rivals on the southern coast. With the exception of two or three days, the weather has been for more than two months of the most delightful description, so that scarcely the slightest check has been put upon the pleasurable movements of the visitors to all parts of the vicinity, which, as is well , known, abounds with an infinitude of the most pictu resque and delightful situations. To drive to the Roman pavement, discovered on Lancing Hill on Good Friday of the present year, is a prominent feature in the excursions made hourly almost from Worthing, and the highest gratification is the in variable result; as, independent of the degree of interest which is naturally excited by a view of so interesting an object of antiquity, its situation also affords the most delightful views than can well be imagined. BRIGHTON, SZPT. 21.

The Earl of Egremont, in excellent health, is enter taining a select circle of friends at Pet worth. Towards the close of the Masquerade, at the' , Royal Gardens," in the night of Thursday, a most unpleasant affair took place, and which may yet be attended by a fatal result. It was occasioned by a livery servant, who had cAttrived to get access to the rooms, and, in the principal saloon, audaciously to join the masks.— In a scuffle which followed to expel the intruder, Mr. Fuard, of High street, was thrown over the banister of the stairs which lead the rooms below, fracturing the skull by the fall, dislocating the right wrist, and break ing the bone of the arm. He was borne in a senseless state to his residence, where he has continued in great danger ever since. He has the best surgical attendance, Messrs. Battcock and Paine, who give but faint hopes of his recovery. The Police•officers were in quest of the livery-servant, whose• name at present is unknown, as the principal of what has happened, all yesterday and to-day, but ineffectually. He is supposed to have absconded. SHALL AND WILL.

Colonel Berkeley's hounds still continue here for the purpose of cub-hunting. They have had very good sport, and the foxes are in gttat abundance. On Thurs day List the hounds turned out three brace of foxes from Queen's Wood, about two miles from the town; these sly gentlemen must have cbmmitted great havoc in the neighbouring farm-yards, and probably an ex ample will be made of some of them in November, when the hunting season commences in earnest. The Cheltenham pack of Harriers have commenced hunting, and bad very excellent sport on Friday last in the vicinity of Pittville.

SKIM 90.—Yesterday arrived bete, after a passage through the several canals fromPadding ton, a steam vessel, bulk for the purpose of navigating the canals of the kingdom; an attempt which has beta once or twice made, but has never heretofore sac. ceeded; the vessel which has come here is the invention of Mr. DAvta GORDON, well known as the originator of the portable gas. The vessel is small, and ola very moderate power ; it passed through the Regent's Ca nal at London, and also the Grand Junction Canal, the Birmingham, the Coventry, the Oxford, the Grand Trunk (or Trent and Mersey) into the Duke of Bridge. water's noble canal, by which this part of the country is so distinguished. In the progress of this voyage it ease through two subterranean tunnels, each of nearly two miles in length, the one at Stake Brecon. in North amptonshire, and the other ending at Preston Brook, in this county (besides two or three small tunnels, one of them near Braunston). Through the last of the long tunnels, the steam vessel towed a large barge laden with timber; thus saving the labour usual in passing through by tunnels, and which is most unfriendly to the health and safety of the labourers em ployed in that task. It is expected that this invention will be applied to many purposes of utility ancPpleasure. The present voyage has been purely experimental, for the purpose of ascertaining the possibility of employing steam vessels without injury to the canals; a fact now fully ascertained, and with this addition, that steam vessels will be beneficial by clearing the water way, which is frequently injured by the present canal barges and towing paths. CITY SESSIONS COURT. 031114 Sm. 18. ATTEMPT TO BORN TUE WEIGH BOOM This morning James Callaghan was arraigned on an indictment for a misdemeanour, which charged him with conspiracy to set fire to the public crane in the city, containing 10,000 butter firkins, on Thursday mooning, the 19th of August. There were three counts in the indictment; the one for conspiring to set fire to the crane ; the second, for having conspired with David Murray and others ; and the third, for having conspired with persons unknown. Mr. O'Cortuatt stated the case—After ilwelling on its importance, and alluding to the several fires which had lately taken place in this City, arising no doubt out of the system of combination that prevailed to such an extent in Cork ; he adverted to the dreadful consequences and ruin to several indus trious families, that would have followed, if the diabo lical designs of the prisoner had been put into effect, which no doubt would have been done, had he not been discovered. The object was to burn the casks 6r firkins that were in the crane, and thereby to occasion an in- creased demand, though the journeymen carpenters bad been already paid for making them. He concluded by saying that thedisgraceful combination of the coopers had been the means of nearlydestroying the trade of the cityof Cork. He then called the fallowing witnesses:—E. Ring, Eugene Sullivan, William Cashin, Richard Sneehan, Patrick Murphy, Cornelius Sullieari, P. Mathias, and M. Sullivan ; but as the leading evidence of one is nearly fisat of the entire, we shall give it all in a sum mary. It appeared that several master coopers, who had firkins in the crane, where they remained to be in spected, weighed, and branded, bad got private infor mation that there was a design to destroy this property—accordingly they agreed to meet in a public house opposite the crane to watch, and they procured an additional man to remain up with Sul livan, the watchman. On Sunday night, the two watchmen went into the crane, and locked the door, and having concealed themselves, about half past 12 o'clock they heard a noise among the firkins, s and on looking towards the place where the noise was made, they saw two men coming over the wall, on which one of them slipped out and gave the alarm to the master coopers, who instantly rushed into the yard, and then they observed David Murray throw himself over the wall into the lane; they then began searching, and soon found the prisoner hid in a corner, and near him they found a fire box, with phosphorous matches, two bladders of turpentine, a quantity of tow, &c. On being asked what brought him there, he said be came to look for a game cost that had been stole. from him by one of the firkin carriers. He denied all knowledge of the materials found near him. These were nearly the facts of the case. There were no witnesses called in his fevour; and hie Woman? having minutely recapitulated the evidence, left the case to the Jury, who shortly brought in a ver dict of (Jodi/. The RECOADUR then addressed the prisoner, and said be had been tried, and, atter the clearest evidence, cen.; victed. It was a case in which no one could have the least doubt as to his intention; it was, therefore, the duty of the Court to sentence hum. In doing so, it had no expectation of bringing him back to a sense of his evil ways, but as an example to other mistaken men, the Court had thought proper to sentence him to two years' imprisonateoi.

The Comet may now be seen without the aid of a telescope. it is on the meridian a tittle after one A. M. It may be discovered between the hours of eight and eleven in the evening, in the east, at an elevation of 30 degrees at eight, and 60 degrees at eleven o'clock. The eye will be directed to it by tracing a line upwards, from the bright star in the head of Aries to that in the girdle of Andromeda, and thence through the two smaller stars of the girdle, near the higher of which the Comet is situated. TSZIIIINDOHA GALS AT STA. WITH LOSS or Friday, the coast along the counties of Elgin and Banff was visited with a tremendous gale from the north east direction, which has been productive of considerable damage to property, together with loss of life. A boat, belonging to Rottenslough, came ashore between Spry. mouth and Portgordon; the had fiundered at sea, and the whole of the crew, consisting of sin men, had been unfortunately drowned. Another boat was also upset about half a mile off Portgordon, and two of the crew, consisting of four individuals, unhappily met with a watery grave. The others clung to the buoys and nets which were in the boat. One of the two who escaped with their lives was a little boy ; and it is worthy of being recorded, as an instance of his wonderful presence of mind in such a perilous situation, that perceiving the buoys. in consequence of the nets, were making no pro- gress towards the shore. he deliberately took out a per he had in his pocket, and cut the nets from the buoys, by which mean, he was drifted ashore, after being tossed about for two hours. Bath were quite Irzhausted, and one insensible, when they reached the shore, but they have since r e c o ve r ed. Upwards of a dozen boats, lying in their moorings at the port cf Buckie. were on the same day dashed to pieces.—Elgin Carrier.
