AAGIIAG. FROM THE ANNALS el , SPORTING. This is one of the most ptop;iious months in the year for bottom, or float.fishing, either in rivers, ponds, likes, meets. The keels of salt-water angling may now c,.tch whiting, plaice, crabs, and codlings, with the lug or sand•worm. Perch will take a live bait with the grea:est avidity, and it is in the month of Septem ber, indeed. that this h,h—and we know of few things superior to one of two or three pounds weight—is in the highest perfection. Carp are also in condition, an.l will be on the ietd early and late; this the angler should turn to instant advantage, especially as, alter :Michaelmas, they begin to retire into deep water, and grow indifferent to the baits and lures of the fisher men, be they ever so skilful or choice. Not se with role!) and chub, now also good and healthy ; they will bite freely, and continue to do so till the May-flowers c‘)rne again. Even dice are become a' firm, well-fla inured, and nutritious food, and no extraordinary pot tion t f skill w be requisite to capture them. Those re.. l .entary fishermen—children of patience, sue eiy—who delight in trying for bar bel in the " bosom of old Father Ttiarnes," should be on the alert, and have their punts pitched ere it be well light, and be themselvc prepired, like provident adventurers, with reqnisite.tackle and proper baits. Gudgeons will still f 'how the rake, in the Lee, Thames, and other streams, 114'46 afford them haunts. Trout ale becoming big bellied, and will soon cease to be fair game; the fly-fishetman may still, however, find sort in s hipping, or clapp;rig, for grayling, chub, dace, and bleak, either with a natural or artificial bait. Jack and pike Lte getting strong, aid slew them selves by raing about in the deeps. Some sizeable ones may now br ki:lcd, but more, without doubt, in o.:toher. In our next, stet shall speak more fully on the . subject of troili,ig. That scarce, but truly delicious fish, the smelt, will eagerly take a bait. They are to be found in salt-water harbours, bays, and docks, and also in the City Canal, crosing the I k of I.):'gs, during this and the follow ing month. They should be angled for very early in the n;cnninz, and the fishermen should bait with the belly part of an eel, and try in deep water, and about the head and bows of shipping. Flounders, and the small eel called a greig will take a worm-bait all day, and the larger ones, which run only horn sun-set to cm-rise, called the glut eel, will swallow a fish-bait (minnow, &c.) very freely during the dick nights, in a:1 rivers, pools, and ponds, in which these " snakes of the waters, as we have heard them called, are most usually found.

Extract of a private letter from an Officer at Napoli di Romania :—" 1 have learned from au Englishman, a great admirer of the Greeks, who has just arrived frrim Hydra, that 200 Turkish prisoners, who had been for months in captivity, were led out by the Greeks, and butchered in the street with knives, stilettoes, and even forks. Scarcely had these unhappy victims met their late, and were still in the agonies of death, when the Turkisn slaves, who were prisoners of war, and bad been for years domesticated in the families of their masters, were brought forth, each by his owner, and deliberately slaughtered in a similar mariner. On the cruelty of tl.is massacre being represented to some of the Greek Captains, they only replied by laughing, and mimicking the actions of the Turks, wltilst on the point cf being stuck. These poor wretches met their fate in a manner the most calm and devoted that can possibly be imagined. This shocking scene is sup posed to have originate's! in the following circum stance :—A Turkish prisoner, on board A Hydra brig in the Greek fleet, hay. inebecn Most cruelly blerten and ili-used. and thereby driven to despe.ratjelr, entered the magazine of the vessel, and put a match to it, in this manner destroying himself end all but about twenty of • the Greeks. To prevent a recurrence of this act of desperation, the Greek fleet, consisting of seventy-five well of war, have received orders to tdke no more pri soners, but to slaughter their enemies as soon as they fall' into their Lanai. Ibrahim Pacta has probably isearcliCtraii, for be caused all thc Greek women and children at halona to be massacred on his return." INDIAN ARMY. GOVERNMENT GENERAL ORDER.

They will likewise swear 'in all recruits previous to joining the Itegintnt. with the usual solemnities, in Horn of the colours, af•er com pleting their course of drill, by which time the recruit, will have acquired a strong sense of the obligation. It will be their duty also to assist and direct all men in the corps anxious to qualify themselves for promotion, by the acquisition of reading and wr:ting in o.re or both languages, and generally to perform all similar duties that may be assigned to them by the Command ing Officer, or the Quarter-Master of the Itug'ment ; sixty (60) sonat rupees will be admitted for A shed, a. a school, and for stationary, &c. &c. to be drawn by the Interpreter and Quarter-Master, annually, atu. in advance. 3.

PRINCE HOHENLOHE'S NEW MIRACLE. If the following miracle, detailed in an ecclesiastical journal, called L' Anti de la Religion et du Roi, be true, it is a death-blow to the thriving trade of all those per sons who attempt by lotions, oils, and essences, to re store decayed beauty, or remedy the defects of nature' or the deformities produced by accident ; for how can' the long and troublesome operation of ordinary cos metician: stand a competition with the safe, easy, snd quick presto-begone efficacy of the prayers of Prince Hoheirlohe? The following are the alleged facts of the miraculous restoration of beauty. Francoise Merlin (the name is a very appropriate one for the marvellous story), a girl twenty-seven years old, living at Cha pounais, in the diocese of Grenoble, fell into the fire while she was yet an infant in the cradle, and was most dreadfully disfigured in consequence. Her left cheek p - re.ented tl.e appearance of a shrivelled cicatrice, with a knotted ridge of flesh crossing it, and her nose, eye, and mouth were so contracted and injured as to render her aspect pet fectly hideous. This girl, thus disfigured, begged of the Cure of Teysen to recommend her to the prayers of Prince Hohenlobe ; he consented, and last February, he told her to commence a neuvaine, or nine days' prayers. This she accordingly did, but without any visible effect. The neuvaine of March was alike inoperative; but one fine morning to. wards the close of the neuvaine of April, after some very acute paMs in the head, her deformity entirely dis appeared. Her lett cheek, which had been furrowed like a newly-ploughed field, became all of a sudden as smooth as a bowling-green, the nose removed into its proper place and swelled to its full dimensions, the mouth returned to all its freshness and pristine propor tions, and the left eye, which had been motionless and incessantly open for 26 years, became as lively and sparkling as any eye in the village, and acquired a complete power of shutting and opening, winking or leering, at the will of the fair possessor; even the lids, whose lashes had been burnt to the roots, we►e instan taneously accommodated with a second and silken crop. " I affirm," says the Cure, " only what our eyes have seen. T. e extraordinary cure of the girl is complete and permanent, and 1 ought to add, that she has had no recourse to physical remedies." A general confession, frequent communions, prayers, and acts of piety have been the only means made use of by Fran soise Merlin ! Oh, Francoise Merlin ! Francoise Merlin 1 you and Prince Hohenlohe are a pretty particular considerable pair of impostors I calculate. At the Anglesea Great Session, a man, named Evan Robert:, was indicted for the murder of his own male bastard child. The child was placed with a woman named Parry to nurse, and on the 23J October she went nut early in the morning to milk, and Left the child in bed asleep; she was absent about half an hour; there were three others iu a:lother bed close by. Wh. n she came back, she saw the clothes had been turned down, and the child was not there. Oa the night pre vious, the prisoner did not s!eils at home, but said he was at his mother's, cutting fire-wood for her, till ne irly one o'clock in the morning ; he then walked about and fell asleep in a field. On the morning that the chid was missing, the prisoner was seen on the road between the house and Llyslan wi.h a small bundle under his arm. The child was found in so,ne straw, at the Cow house, at Llyslan, on the 6th of November, but so disfigured that it could not be tecognizei. The prisoner absconded the. day afer the child wa, las•, and was not found till the following May, when he went by the name of Joha Roberts. The Jury, after deliberating seven huur.i, returned a verdict of-- .‘ot PULICE I'A'.IRLLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE The Loan Maros, on a person applying for a warrant against an individual for cruety to a horse, remarked upon the shameful practice of ceerloading these noble creatures, which he considered more cruel than the abuse of the lash. His Lordship cited one or two izatances which c.me under his own observation, and hoped that some legidative proceeding would be bad to prevent it. BOW-STMT. Saturday, a person of about the middle age, and very gentle manly appeatance, was brought before Mr. Minsne:d., un the chaise of having been engaged with others in th commission of very extensive forgeries. The prisoner gave his name to the Magistrate, John Berge*. Mr. Bennett, a Clerk in the Banking-house of Sansom and Co. stated, that on the 24th of June, he paid a check, produced, for £ll7, purporting to be drawn by Joseph Green and Co. He had no recollection of the person who presented the check, but he re membered that he paid it all in £5 notes, except two odd pounds, sovereigns. Joseph Green and Co. kept cash at Messrs. Samoan's. Mr. Benjamin Green, Clerk in the firm of Joseph Green and Co. potters, in Upper T hames-street, stated, that the check now produced, to the best of his knowledge and belief, was not in the hand-writing of any one of the partners. There was only one of the partners, Mr. Joseph Green, who ever signed checks. The check produced had a general and pretty accurate resemblance to those issued from the firm, but he believed it was not a genuine one. Mr. Joseph Green was not in town on the 24th of June, the date of the check in question Mr. Freshheid, Jun. of the Bank of England, who attended for the prosecution, here stated to Mr. AlsxstauLL that be had to offer the testimony of a young man who was undoubtedly to be regarded in the character of an accomplice, but who had voluntarily surren dered nimseli into custody, on an understanding that be would be acmitt:d Ln evidence fur the Crown. Mis...trute asked if Mr. Freshheld had no other evidence than that ut ati accomplice, Gtcause lie must be a v.art that it was only in absence of Letter that such testimony could be received ! Freshfield said be was aware ct that ; and he was prepared to state that without the evidence of the accomplice he should be unable to bring a charge borne to any individual. Alfred Johnson, the accomplice, a sprite looking young man, %vbw stated hiniselt to be twenty-two years of ag e , was called. The following was the substance ut his evidence : —He was brought here in custody from the House of Correction, kr having surren dered himself on Thursday evening to Armstrong, a IVorship-street Meer. He had been about two years a junior clerk at Messrs. Sansum's, front- which situation be was dismissed about six weeks ago. Some time in May last he saw a person of the name of Pack ham (not in custody) at the oyster-rooms, known as " Mother Hoclgkines," opposite Drury-lane Theatre. Peckham addressed him, and said be knew bi.o very well—that he himself had been in Smith, Payne, and Smith's backing-house, and that he had seen hint (witness) at Satoom and .Co.'s. They afterwards met at a Masquerade, and becoming well acquainted, Packham incited bins coding with him at his lodgings, in Upper King -street, Holborn, where he introduced him to another person, of the name of Jones. They had frequent meetings there, and on one occasion, three forged checks fur Ai 17, £l5O, and X 75, all forged upon Messrs. Sansom and Co. were produced, and a conversation took place upon the subject of uttering them; two of them purported to be drawn by Joseph (item and Co. and the third by Messrs. Wilkinson. A day or two after witness was sent for from the Banking House to some Gentlemen at the Spread Eagle, Grace — church-street, and he found Peckham and Jones there.—They told him that a Gentleman, whom they described very accurately, in order that he might know him, would come in a few minutes to Sansom and Co.'s, and present the check for £ll7, and that he was I to go back to the banking-house and watch fur his coming. The accomplice did go back, and shortly after saw the prisoner, who Was dressed as Pack ham and Jones had described him, come in and present a check for £ll7 (as the accomplice believed). 'flit pri soner received the money, and went away. According to previous agreement the accomplice went again to the Spread Eagle, and there he found Peckham and Jones, who took him in a coach to the tout of London Bridge, and desired hint to go into the Shades and get a glass of wine, and come out again in a few minutes. When he came out he saw Packham, Jones, and the prisoner, standing together, and saw them receive money from him.' Packham seeing the ac , complice come out, approached him, and said, " don't let him, (pointing to the prisoner) see you." The accomplice stood aside, and saw the three enter a public-house by Old Swan-stairs. A day lor two after this, the accomplice met the prisoner at Packham's lodgings, and was introduced by the latter to him as a stranger.— They all dined together. They afterwards all met together at the Opera Colonade Coffee-house, and there the forged check for £761 was talked about. Packham bad declared that the prisoner had re ceived LW tor presenting it, at which the accomplice and Jones felt angry. and appealed to the prisoner, who declared that he only re ceived £l5, that Packham had the other £6O, and that for the false hood, be would never speak to Packham again. Packham said he had lost the £6O at a gaming-house; upon which the prisoner took out a large sum of money, and mid," I can go into a gaming-house with all this in my pocket, and did the other night, without gaming at all." They were then all in general conversation about the pro.. duce of the forged checks, which was always divided between them. The testimony of the accomplice terminated here, and the pri soner was told that he would be remanded for further examination. Hts reply was, " I shall be able to answer the charges. It is alto gether a conspiracy against me." Some money which had been taken from him (.Fl9, was re stored to him, and be was taken from the bar. The Solicitor foe the prosecution stated, that at the next exami nation he should be able to produce conarsnatory evidence, and the case would assume altogether a much more serious complexion even than it did now. The prisoner, during the examination, preserved the most perfect composure, if we except an occasional expression of astonishment at some of the statements of the accomplice. He had a smile on his countenance the greater part of the time. Randulph was brought before G. IL Mnrassuit, Esq. charged with forgery. The circumstances were these :—Tbe prisoner was clerk on board the brig of war, Hasty, in the port of Milford Haven, and in that capacity had the management of the shies accouots, as far as they were connected with her supplies. Dlr. Bartlett, who is a merchant, residing at Bidbury, in Devonshire, had contracted to supply the vessel with all her stores. In the year lint, be sent a supply of stores for four months. When they were received, the prisoner, as was his duty, acknowledged them, and at the same time informed him, that the crew were in very pressing want of tobacco, and therefore, he should be much obliged to Mr. Bartlett, if he would send some as soon as possible. Mr. Bartlett at that time had no tobacco in his possession, and it would be some time before he could obtain a supply. He therefore wrote back to the prisoner, that if then wain of tobacco was very great, be had better purchase a quantity, and charge it to him, and be would pay for it either in money or in bills, as should be most convenient. Soon after, the prisoner wrote him word that he had purchased forty pounds weight, and enclosed hint the bill and receipt of the merchant who had sup plied it, named lelleS. Mr. Bartlett paid the money, and of course, when he sent in his annual account, the forty pounds were charged in it. After the lapse of some time, a cargo of tobacco came to Mr. Bartlett, and then be sent 2501b5. to the Hasty, for the further sup ply et the vessel ; thus the quantity charged was 2901b5. When the bill of Mr. Bartlett came in, the improper conduct of the prisoner was discovered. It then appeared, that Captain Fitemorris, the commander of the brig, bad never authorised the prisoner to send for the eolbs. of tobacco, nor had it ever been appropriated to the use of the crew. Mr. Jones whom name had been signed In the receipt for the value of the 44;tbs. appeared, and denied that the sig nature was bis. The other part of the receipt was in the hand- . writing of the prisoner. The prisoner had, immediately before the examination of the contractor's accounts, absconded from the ves sel. Tbis threw considerable suspicion on him, and be was, there fore, apprehended. Mr. Mutiny it. said, that on this evidence be undoubtedly consi dered himself authorised to commit. if, however, the prisoner was desirous of undergoing a second examination, he should be granted that favour. The prisoner said he wished to have time to collect his evidence, and obtain the advice of &professional man. • Mr. Nosseu. said, he would have a full opportunity of doing that between the present moment and his trial. He would not be removed from the House of Correction for a week at least, and in that period be might consult any professional Gentleman he chose. prismer expressed himself perfectly mashed with the pro- ceetling, and he was then taken from the bar. HATTON-GARDEN. Mare Anise Clarke, who has been se repeatedly remanded on account ut the number of her accusers, was then placed at the bar to undergo a tit:al examination. It will be recollected that the defendant had taken various lodgings, in different quarters of the town, tram each of which she had stolen property, but was it last apprehended by Reed, the chief officer of this establishment s in tbt neighbourhood of Clerkenweil; oil searching the person of the pri-oner, Reed found no less than thirty duplicates upon bet.

In the present stistzarc.ae work was not dune within the time agreed on.

The Magistrate thought it was not a ease which called for Lir nterference, and dismissed the complaint. QUEEN-SQU A RE. Saturday, ,lasses King, a costertnunger, was charged with having ill-treated a donkey. It was proved, that on Monday altermatin, the prisoner was driving the donkey in question along the Vaginal.. road, and he was compelled to drag a cart, in which were the pn. goner and four other great fellows. The prisoner brat him it, a very cruel manner, and the donkey went Item one side to the ot; et. At length one of the men got out of the cart, and had the dol., y by the head, and called on the others a to brat him, as be amid i.sc help himself." The prisoner and the others then beat the dunko with a hedge-stake. The prisoner received, us unt..l, a good . ratter for humanity • hut he was fined 40s. Mr. Martin, wht , on the Bench, wished the fine to be mitigated, on account ot ;he defendant's good character; but Mr. 3laasiagn paid no attcri a to this suggestion.
