We regret to see tharattempts are still made to throw discredit upon the means used to get up (as it is called) these Pete. lions ; but it is quite evident that no means which could be adoi ted could have. succeeded in inducing so niaty thousands . io petition against Concession, if the intenJed mea.ure had not been obnuzious to the people generally. It perhaps cannot be de.' nitd, that both sides have used means to persuade persons to petition, %bleb bad better Rot have been resoi ted to, but it is to be regretted that any attempt should be in consequence made to bring into disrei tare the pt actice of pied Ling p. titions, which is founded upon a right which all k.nglisbaien have been taught to look upon as one of the bulwarks of their freedom. These as tifiers boa ever will not succeed, and petitions, evincing the sense of every district of the country, wilt still pour in, and eventually they must be attended to. The Paris Papers of Tuesday were received last night. They do not contain one word of news. The Funds declined about a bait per cent. on that day, but no cause is assigned for it in the Papers. Extracts are given is another column. Mr. WARBURTON last night obtained leave to bring in the Bin. 01 whi:h he bad given previous notice. to 4 ‘.l.eganse and Regulate the supply of Subjects.for Anatomy." As it is highly desirable that no unlavour able impression against the measures proposed by this . Bill should be made. we shall take an early oppottamity after it is brought in to discuss the principles of it• Some of oar Cotemporaries have lately descended to the base means of vilifying private character, for the purpose of promoting the purposes of - factions and we need not mention that reports of the most- seaa• daloos nature have been propagated by these means against two illustrious persons. The very were of the imputations prevented their metradletiemo wiabout outraging decency and the feelings of the highest rani:) , in the Kingdom. The repeated insinuations, however, contained in one Journal rendered silence impossible. and then fore steps were taken to prove the absolute fal.ehood of the reports; and we are happy to be able to add, that we understand thst the most irresistible proofs have been afforded of the utter want of founds- Lion for the whole story. We cannot at present say more than that the innocence of the parties accused is most conclusively established. The proceedings instituted by Captain GARTH in Chancery, respecting a certain box of papers, may pro bably still further confirm what we have stated above. The relations between this country and Turkey, are, we understand, likely to become more friendly; while the renewal of hostilities between Russia and the Porte' is inevitable. The probability, therefore, a differences ,rising between the Cabinets a St. limes's and St. Petersburgh, hAi become stronger, and to this cause, it is said, may be attributed the decline which has taken place in the Austrian funds, as it is impossible that Russia and Great Britain could in any way be , embroiled, without Austria and France being ultimately , involved. At no former period were the relations of amity between Great Britain, France, and Austria more close than at present, and this is the best safeguard against tl.e ambitious views of Russia. Reports mention that Mr. STRATFORD CANNING has left Naples, on his way to Constantinople, and if - tut succeeds in arranging all matters between this country and the Porte, we may ' then at once make common cause against the plans of the Russian Autocrat.

' measure proposed by the Honourable Member; but he thought It would be an IMprovement if the public had some security that the privilege was not abused. For example, the names of those entitled to merles subjects should be made known, which would she some s e curity as to those characters. If it should be urged as an objection that the supply would thus, in a great measure, come from the poor, be should reply that it did so now, as the rich were generally buried in such a manner as to render et bounden nearly impossible. Besides. it should be remem bered that it was the poor, too, who would have the chief benefit arising from this measure. as the rich were always able to procure the very highest talent, which, from the want of facilities for ec stasies anJtamical knowledge, was now confined comparatively to a few. He trusted that no objection would be urged to the mea sure that was not founded upon reason. There were none who bad read the evidence and examined the measure but must agree that it was not only for the benefit of the poor, but especially con tubed their feelings. After a few obrervations from Mr. Lova and Mr. Waaastaron in reply, leave was given to bring in the Bill. GROWTH OF TOBACCO IN !MILANO. - - -- - -- Mr. G. DAWSON moved that the House do resolve itself into a Committee on the Act relating to the growth of Tobacco in the United Kingdom, with a view to assimilate the law of Ireland to that of England. The Hon. Gentleman said that great quantities et tobacco had been grown in Ireland, and that the West India planter, considering the high duties he paid, should be protected sown the effects of such tobacco, which, besides, was of a very bad quality, coming into consumption. Mr. W. WHITMORK deprecated going further into this mea sure st present. He thought the House ought net to prevent, without great consideration, the farmer from growing a plant that was ptobtahle to him. With respect to the article being bad that was no argument, fur a little experience would soon tench the far mer to grow a better. Mr. IL OR ANT begged that the consideration of the subject might be deferred. There was no principle on which the robin'. Lion to grow tobacco could be defended except the revenue that was raised from that we imported ; but he thought that the re venue might be raked in a less objectionable manner. The motive for the prohibition, originally, was the encouragement of Virginia and Maryland; but, u that motive had long since ceased to operate, so ought the restriction. The injustice of the measure to persons who cultivated tobacco In Ireland was great. Ministers ought, besides; to consider what an encouragement they gave to the illi cit introduction of tobacco by so high a duty as 1,0001. or - 1,:A01. per cent. whjch was the duty on that we received front our Colonies. Mr. DICKINSON wished to suggest that there were large tracts of land in Devonshire which might be cultivated, and that the climate of that county was peculiarly favourable to the growth of tobacco. lUr. G. DAWSON thought it would be better now to assimilate . the laws of Ireland with those of Great Britain relative to the growth of tobacco, and to revert to the whole subject oennected with tobacco at a future period. The House then resolved itself into a Committee, the Resolution was agreed to, and the House resumed. KUTINT BILL. The Mutiny Bill was read a third time and passed. On thr motion of Mr. WALLACE, a Bill to extend the Act of the 551c1 Geo. 111. to present Abuses of Trusts few Public Charities, was read a second time, and ordered to be committed tansomor (this day).

The following is an extract of a letter from an Officer of the 48th Regiment of Foot, at Corfu, dated Ise of January, 1829 : " Tie day but one after oar arrival here. the whole garrison was ordered out to witness the execution of a private of the Royal Military Salmon and Miners. He was sentenced by a Court Martial to be shot until dead, for having struck a Sergeant of that Corps with a plea of wood, and thereby endangering his life, so much so that the Sergeant did not recover sufficiently to give his evidence for some months. Several soldiers in title gtrriNon had, for offenses of a similar nature, received the same sentence during the last year or two, but none of these had been carried into eze cation ; they were, I believe, all transported for life. Sir Far Dams ADAK was determined to make an example of this man, as the crime wu becoming common ; and he bad before attempted to drown an Officer, but escaped without punishment. At seven o'clock on the morning of the execution, the whole garrison marched out into the outer ditch, where they were drawn up as well as the nature of the ground would admit ; it was altogether a most awful and impressive spectacle; the whole of the ramparts were planted with sentries; the troops formed three sides and a considerable pan of a fourth side of a square, and in the centre of the half vacant side the grave was dug. After waiting some time, the band of the 51st, with milled drums, were heard at a dis ranee, playing the Dead Merck; from this time it was bait' an hour before the band appeared; then come six men bearing the and after them followed the prisoner, with the Chaplain by his side, and surrounded by his guards, and handcuffed He moved forward with firmnes=, though he appeared to be quite un conscious of everything around him. He walked along the three , sides of the square. and the coffin baying been placed near the grave, be was required to kneel upon it, when the Brigade-Major advanced into the centre of the square, and read aloud the pro. ceedings of the Court. As soon as this was ended, the prisoner had a handkerchief tied over his eyes, after which the guard was withdrawn, and the Chaplain continued• praying with him, gra dually raising his voice as he retired a few paces, that the poor fellow might not be a ware that the last preparations were so nearly concluded, when, upon a given signal, fifteen men of his corps advanced a few paces, and Aged, when the body fell back, and gave no further symptoms of vitality, not even the modes of a limb.
