41 1 _ et be public-house with Colonel Gore. He added that Foster bad been servant to Captain Solway, and was a stone-mason by trade; he believed be was working at Highgate, but did vet know where to find him. Arthur Foster sworn and examined—l was servant to Captain Solway. I saw Corporal George, for the first time, about six or eight months ago, at Bothwell Park, in Hampshire; he was conducting a prisoner to Petersileld ; I did not see him again till yesterday. I did not see him in Oxford-street on the 2d of last August. From what I saw of him at Ilothwell Park, if I had seen him in Orford-street, I should have recollected him. I rather think I was out of employment on the 2d of August; I apt not certain. Corporal George said it was useless to ask this witness any questions. He bad been told by a serjeant that he said he did not know anything of him whatever,wheu they had sailed in the same ship together from Portsmouth. The witness, in re-examination, positively swore that he did not see Corporal George on the 2d August; nor was he in Ox ford-street, to his knowledge, on that day.—Witness withdrew. Thomas Gore, Esq. examined.—l live at No.lB, South Aud ley:street. My son, C o lonel Gore, was in my company on t h e 2d of August. On that day the gig was ordered at a quarter past bur, soon after which Colonel Gore came down through the garden, and got into the gig with me at the stable. We then drove to Mr. Rose's, in Park-place, who was engaged. We then went to Mr. Stockdale's, in Piccadilly. Colonel Gore got out and went into the s'op. I remained at the door. About five o'clock a very heavy storm of rain came on, which lasted some time. After it was over, the letter-bell going, we re turned to Mr. Rose's, who was ;till engaged. Colonel Gore got out of the gig, and went in to consult Mr. Rose; he remained some time. After the consultation I drove him back to the . stable at the back of my house. Ile then went up the garden to his own room, and I gave the wet umbrella to his servant, William Cooper.. That was about a quarter past six o'clock, and at half-put six I sat down to dinner with my family in the parlour, and sent up Colonel Gore's dinner by his servant, as usual, Colonel Gore not having dined below or walked out for neatly a month. Whilst we were at dinner, having a clock on the sideboard, it struck seven. lam confidently punctual as to the time. The groom was directed to get the gig when ordered, and about half-past seven, or twenty minutes before eight, Co lonel Gore came down the garden to the stable, and his servant brought a dry umbrella. We then got into the gig, and Colonel Gore put on his blue cloak, as he wanted air in the gig, being very indifferent, and could not walk. I then drove down South street gently, into Park-lane, down Upper Brook-street, Gros venor-square, and so to Oxford-street. I passed Bell, the ehy mist's door, and turned round to the right of Queen-street, and placed the carriage against Bell's east window and the cutler's shop, for Colonel Gore to get out, not being able to draw up at Bell's door, because of the .crossing from Portland-street. Co lonel Gore then threw off his cloak, and went into Bell's shop with Mr. Ruse's prescription. He remained there a few mi nutes, and was never out of my sight the whole of that after noon or evening, except those few minutes I watched his coming out ; and that instant he came out he got into the gig, put on his cloak, and we returned the same way to Park-lane, went in at Grosvenor-gate, drove a short time about Ilyde Park, went out at Chesterfield-gate, and straight home to the same stable from whence we had departed. It was then half-past eight. Colonel Gore then went up the garden to the drawing-room, where he by on the sofa the whole evening. Examined by Corporal George.—" This good Gentleman states that his son was never out of his sight but the few minutes in the chyrnist's; whereas, he has already stated he sent his din ner up to hint in his room. I would ask hint whether he is sure he was then in his r000m?"—I can swear that he was. went up to him two or three times during dinner, as was my practice every day, to see that he had everything right. I saw him, and can positively swear he was there. Corporal George.—l have nothing more to say, only that all this good Gentleman has sworn front half-past six to half-past seven, is utterly false. Examined by the COURT.—CouId he have gone into Oxford street in the intervals when you were absent from him ?—Cer tainly not. " He had not time?"—lle had not time, and he could not walk. 'fhe longest time between the periods of my seeing hint did not exceed, in the brit instance, five or ten minutes ; and in the second, 20 minutes, or a quarter of an hour. Ills servant, William Cooper, attended him during his dinner. Colonel Woodford again examined.—When this charge was made, I met Mr. Gore (the last witness) at Sir Henry Bou verie's, in St. James's-square, to hear his statement, in conse queuce of the statement of Corporal George. Sir Henry Bou aerie, Colonel Hamilton, Colonel Gore, Mr. Gore, and a friend of his were present. At that meeting Mr. Gore gave in sub stance the same account he has given this day. I took a minute of what occurred. (The witness then read his minute, and its contents confirmed his impression). Mr. Thomas Rose examined.—l am a surgeon, residing its Park-place, St. James's. Colonel Gore was a patient of mine. 1 wrote the prescription produced on the day it bears date (the 2d of August). It was between half-past four and six whelp l saw Colonel Gore. Colonel Gore was not in a state of health to be walking about the strecl on a wet day. I particularly cautioned him against such a practice, as he was suffering under a very severe complaint at the time. I heard a report against Colonel Gore, and went to him, informing him of the circumstance, on the 14th of August, to Rantsgate, where he was for the benefit of sea air. He came to town the neat day. Mr. J. Farden, assistant to Mr. hell, the chymist, in Oxford street, proved that he had made up the prescription produced on the 2d of August. It was fur Colonel Gore, and was delivered at his house in South Audley-street. Colonel Gore called be tween six and eight. Witness believed it was past seven. Colonel 6ore delivered the prescription himself. He was dressed as a private Gentleman—a dark coat and waistcoat. He did not observe anything further. John Davis, groom to Colonel Gore, confirmed the evidence of Mr. Gore, as to'the departure from and return to South Aud ley-street with the gig, both bef and after dinner. William Cooper examined.—Tlin now and was footman to Colonel Gore in August last. I remember his going to Rams gate. I remember Friday, the 2d of August. I waited upon him at dinner that day. He dined about half-past six. I carried bit dinner up to him in his own room. During dinner, I was tp and down with him several times. I saw hint go out about half-past seven, after he had dined• It was impossible foi• Colo nel Gore, after he came in to dinner, and before half-past seven, to have gone out without my knowledge. When he did go out, be went out in the tilbury with his father. Examined by the Coust.—l saw Colonel Gore several times that afternoon before he went out ; he was dressed in a red striped dressing-gown. When he went out, I believe he wore a blue coat. I cannot say whether he wore blue or white trowsers; I believe it was either the one or the other. Ido not remember whethet Colonel Gore's father went up to him during dinner or pot. He might have done so without my seeing him.—Colonel Gore here announced that he had no other witnesses to call. The Peesmater asked Corporal George whether he had any other witnesses to call, or any further remarks to make? Corporal George, in reply, complained that after he had first mentioned the business in the Canteen, he was solemnly charged, on pain of confinement, to hold his tongue on the subject, even to the peril of his life, or he might have found some soldier who bad seen him in company with Colonel Gore. The Pa'asteezer remarked that it was very fit he should be re strained front circulating such a story till the facts were properly inquired into. Colonel Woodford stated, that so far was Corporal George front being prevented front looking for witnesses, that he had full permission to go out whenever he chose for that purpose in com pany with a Serjeant. The Serjeant being present, confirmed Colonel Woedford's statement, and said that he repeatedly asked George whether he wished to go anywhere? as he was ready to accompany him. The Count now asked George whether he could mention any person whom he was desirous of being called to support his slat,. ntent, and whom he had been prevented from bringing forward? —He answered in the negative. The proceedings were here clueed.—The Court was cleared, and the Members proceeded to deliberate on their judgment. • • Is * We have much pleasure in stating, that in the afternoon of yesterday Colonel Haan received a let ter from the Right Hun. JOHN BILCHETT, Judge Ad-. vocate, congratulating him upon the decision of the Court, viz.--A full and hanouraok acquittal. The letter added, that the Court considered the charge wicked and malicious, and that a prosecution should be forthwith instituted against the corporal. The de cision of the Court was made known after a shorter in terval than is usual on occasioqs of the kind. Node* is Linty given, DIVIDEND, due on the 50th September instant, will be PAID on that and every subsequastt day (lismdays excepted), an application at our Counting-house, No. 102, Leadenhall allege, between the hours of Ten and Two o'Clock.

At length a successor has been found to the Mar quis of LONDONDERRY, in the Gentleman we at first pointed out as most likely to obtain the office; and there is no doubt that, had it not been for„ the objec tions in a high quarter, he woeld have received the appointment at least a month ago. A Privy Council will be held this afternoon, as we announced in the Swat of Saturday, when Mr. Caaxima will be re admitted a Member, and sworn into the. Office of Principal Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs.— This is a post which the Right Hon. Gentleman filled some years ago, and which it has always been a favourite object of his ambition to regain.. It is not yet known who will be appointed Governor-General of India ; but it is thought that the Marquis of HASTINGS may continue there another year at least. This forenoon we received a German Mail, bring ing Papers to the Bth instant. An article from the frontiers of Moldavia states, that at the fire at Jassy 4,700 houses were burnt and destroyed; and that many hundreds of Christians of all nations have in consequence been ruined. The following is the only extract worth making : Coutt, After a sitting which, with _ , interval adinurnment. listedfrom two o'clock in the ammo Iii‘tra.71111•••••.••••1 -- till a quarter past one the next morning, passed the following sentence (which they had been delibeliting upon from ten till a quarter past one);—M. Guise, the Editor of the Constitutionnel, and M. Fautillon, the Editor of the Journal dm Commerce, were Fen tented (each) to one year's imprisonment, and a line of 5,000 francs. M. Legraaieux, the editor of the Courier Framcais, to six months' imprisonment, and a fine of 9000 francs. M. Cassano, the editor of the Pilote, to one month's imprisonment, and a fine of 1000 francs. The four Journals are also forbidden to publish any reports ;44- judicial proceedings—the two former for the space of a year ; the third for six months ; and the last for three months. They are condemned in costs in nearly the same proportion.. The two first to pay a third ; the third two-ninths ; and the last one-ninth. The papers con taining the account complained of are to be seized. This proceeding was instituted under the new law passed in March last : the law is cruel enough in itself, but the mode of administering it, by making a charge of an interested party tantamount to sworn proof, shews how ignorant our neighbours are of even the first elements of civil liberty and criminal justice. The papers further announce, that the four mili tary youths, condemned for the Rochelle conspiracy, had omitted some formality in their withdrawal of their appeal, u hich consequeatly could not be received., The Align:eine Zeitung is quoted for a letter from Constantinople, dated the 11th, in whit it is ob served, that the Government of the United States, having no relation with the Port; and never having negotiated with that Power, has formed some con nexion with the Greek Senate. The American squa dron stationed in the Mediterranean, and which is authorized to save the Greek emigrants in case of a general disaster, was received on the 23d of July with great solemnity at Hydra. The squadron is also said to have landed a great quantity of arms and ammunition at Hydra. Admiral TOMBASAS, who attacked the Pacha's vessel, and other Greeks, were pre nted to the American Commander, who congra tulMd them on their courage. The letter adds— " Lord STRANGFORD appears to be jealous of this intercourse; and it is said that he has sent agents to Tine, Syra, and Milo, to persuade the inhabitants to prefer the protection of England to that of America." FRENCII FUNDS, SEPT. l3.—Five per Cents. opened at 92f. closed at 9lf. 95c.—Neapolitan 5 per Ct. 761, Advices have been received from Barcelona, dated the 28th ult. announcing that General Toartuos had surrounded, and shut up in the town of Cervera, si tuated 34 miles N. by W. of Tarragona, 600 of the rebels, in such a manner that it was expected not a man would escape. When the last accounts left the camp of the Constitutionalists, they had pressed their works so far, and gained so much ground in the town, that the rebels had been compelled to take re fuge in the Jeromite Convent, and it was hourly ex -pected they would surrender, yawn it was the inten- 1 Lion of General TORRIJOS to execute all the leaders. On all the other points the plans of the Constitution alists had been so well laid, and the designs of the rebels were so apparent, that it was expected the cause of freedom would very soon be triumphant throughout the whole province of Catalonia. The Spanish man of war, San Pablo, had arrived at Barce lona from Cadiz, with a supply of money, arms, &c. Advices from Halifax to the 21st ult. state, that Sir JAMES KEMPT, the Governor of Nova Scotia, was then absent on a tour of inspection through the province of New Brunswick. The Commercial Acts passed at the close of last Session, for regulating the trade between the British possessions in America and the West InAies, and the other parts of the world, had arrived at Halifax, and formed the subject of general attention. They were announced on the 15th ult. by a Proclamation issued at Halifax, to be in immediate operation. . A duty of five shillings the barrel on wheaten flour had been demanded oa the cargo of an American schooner then in port. and is described as the first levy under the new Act, Of the policy or impolicy of these important Acts, the Colonial Journalists scarcely venture, as yet, to express an opinion ; but they appear to think there has been a want of direct agency or representation of their interests throughout their progress; and that, if they prove ultimately beneficial, it will have been owing solely to the liberal attention and foresight of the Government at home. Some inconvenience, it is evident, will arise to the province of Canada from the new Act. It has long been supposed that a great proportion of the flour exported from Canada Was the production of the United States: that fact is now broadly admitted, and it follows, therefore, from the operation of the restrictive measures about to be adopted,_ which prohibit the importatiou'of articles from the States by means of the inland intercourse, which has hitherto subsisted, will not only preclude , the Canadians from exporting American produce, but perhaps deprive them of a portion of their own by the introduction of such pow* ful comp•. into the market. The other British Colonie s however, have the.advantage of obtaining the essential articles of consumption through the direct and the cheapest conveyances The following communication was forwarded to he New England Coffee-horse this morning, far the information of merchants interested in the trade: it Consulate of the / United States, London, Sept. ie.

It is confidently reported that, before the opening of next Session, the Great Seal will be put into Com , mission, and that the LORD CUANCRLLOR has pointed out Mr. Leacn, Mr, Justice BAYLEY, and Mr. Barad RICH A RDSON, as fit and proper persons for the trust. The advantages of this arrangement will be a re li e f to Lord ELDON from all, or nearly all, the judicial duties of his great office, while it will enable him to exercise as usual the functions of a Cabinet Minister, and the Presidency of the House of Lords, as well as to enjoy all the emoluments he has been in the re ceipt of for such a number of years past. When his Lordship's health shall be perfectly restored, it is said, he intends to resume his full labours as heretofore. A Special Meeting of the Corporation of Don- , caster was convened on Monday last by the Worship ful the MAYOR, to take into Consideration the pro priety of presenting a respectful Address to his Royal Highness the Duke of SUSSEX ! on his honouring Don caster Races with his presence. The MAYOR having stated the object of the Meeting, an Address was una nimously voted, 'together with the Freedom of that Borough, to be presented in a gold box, value fifty guineas, should his Royal Highness be pleased to ac cept it; A Deputation was to wait upon the Royal Duke on his arrival at the seat of M. A. TAYLOR, Esq. Cantley, to know at what time and where he will be pleased to receive the Address. A letter from Zante, dated August 2, in the German Papers, says—" The English at present hold out a helping hand to the Greeks, and since the departure „ Or Sir THOMAS MAITLAND, it has been observed that the rigorous measures have ceased with his pre sence. At Zante an asylum has been granted to the family of Papa Diamanto Poulos, Member of the Senate of Corinth, and to several others who fi um the continent at the approach of the infidels. Si,- Frederick Adam, Governor of Corfu ad interim, who is married to a divorced Greek Lady, gives assistance to the un fortunate. Thus there is a change pf policy on this side ; but unless GOD assist the Greeks, it is to be feared that the approaching Congress will have tode liberate only on ruins and tambs." The Haymarket was crowded to excess on Satur day night, to witness DIBDIN'S new Opera of Mornikg, Noon, and Night. Miss PAros sang with her usual excellence The Afterpiece of the Liar followed, which character was sustained by C. keMBLE to ad miration. There was a lucky allusion to the new Mar riage Act, which called forth continued bursts of laughter and applause. YATES, THE ACTOR. —Mr. YATES is so far recovered from his late accident, as to have performed on Fri day night at the Worthing Theatre, for the benefit of Mr. HILL, one of the Comedians of that town. He delivered the following address to the audience: LADIES AND Grzyszatex—Were it not for the occasion, I 'feel that some apology would be due from me, for offering myself to your public inspection in this imitated state of repair—and evri as it is, it were somewhat arrogant, perhaps, that 1, who am myself needing so much support, should attempt to give assist ance to others. In my present state you can expect nothing but a lame apology, and though scarcely able to keep my feet, yet will I venture to stand the test of friendship, and run the hazard of the sentence you may think fit to pronounce. In short, La dies and Gentlemen, I am determined to-night to put my best leg foremost, when zeal, at any rate, shall supply the place of physical ability, and earnestness for your applause carry me ass far better than my legs. An epigram of Roscommon (if I re member rightly) speaking of helplessness of body rams thus— , I am unable, yonder beggar cries, s To stand or go ; if he says true—he lies r No—with your permission I will sometimes sit; so make my hearing sure by taking the chair to my own speeches, and every order observe but the standing order, if you will consent. Ladies and Gentlemen, on this footing I will set off—but that you may travel with better convenience, I wiU supply you with the best stage coach I am able to procure, and built expressly after Mathews's Patent,' by which most of you may have travelled some time or other, in the best of humours, and with the most plea sant company. Yet I must confess, Ladies and Gentlemen, that it is somewhat extraordinary that I should offer to you a con veyance by a vehicle, which is not only • at home,' but never moves front it. But the patent shall be immediately disclosed, and I venture to hope, that when, at last, I may set you down, you will be pleased to remember the driver I" Mr. YATES then recited a very entertaining Me kap, after the manner of MATHEWS, which was very highly applauded. ma 0 600040111111110f-0 nated 40 in liciousillo ~ . .tiviioV eon-trade, 'l'HK:44l'Eli ENG ./KrA R. * -.'. - • titon i - 'l+ ----/ - r.- 4, ~ - .4.—z , , ...., dug ,theinssage was t and et io ' ~/.. molt 0 . aukciest.

A letter from Zante, of the 12th inst. says, " We hay; seen lately in our seas a Turkish fleet of 78 sail, steering to Patras." Later accounts from Corfu, of 6th August, make no mention of a landing at Patras, and even affirm that this combined fleet of the Turks, Algerines, and Egyptians, has no troops on board. But a foreign Consul, who for this month past has been circulating Reports particularly unfavourable to the Greeks, affirms that the Turks have landed at Patras, and immediately proceeded to the IsthMus of Corinth, to attack in the rear the Greeks who are fighting against Chourschid Paella, in Thessaly. FROM THE FRONTIERS OF POLAND, AUGUST 26. By an order of his Imperial Highness the Grand Duke Constantine, the Nobles of Podolia and the Ukraine are forbidden to go into foreign countries. Those to whom passports had already been delivered, before the publication of this order, must deliver them back again ; and the prohibition even has a re trospective ef f ect, with regard to all passports issued in the month of July. The Grand Duke has issued this order to the Government of Zytonier, under his own hand, and added, that even those who had re ceived passports in July are to be stopped and sent back at the frontiers. Permission to s isit foreign countries must be obtained from his Imperial High ness himself. Visalia, Sur. 2.—Matalliques, 83 1 1. —Bank Shares, 884.

The Assize Court of Paris was occupied the whole of Thursday in hearing the pleadings of Counsel in, the complaint made against the Editors of four Newspapers, for having " published a malicious and unfaithful report" of part of the proceedings in the trial of the Rochelle Conspiracy. The four Papers charged were the Censtitsdionnel, the Journal du Com merce, the Courier Francais, and the Pilot..
