1,J01f.)/cript- LONDON, MONDAY, JULY 30. Three o'clock, p. According to advices from Constantinople received at Vienna, the Austrian Minister had fiikd in his efforts with the Porte, to produce an adjustment of its differences with Baron Strogonoff, the Russian Ambassador. The Grand Sultan, it is probable, hesitates, being apprehensive of giving oflimce to the infuriated populace of Constantinople, whose lawless and brutal proceedings are so revolting to every principle of justice and humanity. Their exaspera tion against the Turks has increased, in consequence of the Turkish fleet having been driven under the guns of the Dardanelles by the Greek squadron, with the loss of the 71 gun ship burnt by the Greeks, near Sigri, on the western side of Mytilene. This ship did not sail with the fleet from Constantinople, but having fallen in with 9.0 or 30 small Greek ves sels, was driven into the harbour of Sigri, and con sumed by the means of fire ships, and most of the Turks, in endeavouring to escape, were either drowned or killed by their enemies.—Private intel. ligcnce, receiveil from an authentic source, asserts, that so far from 1,200 men having been immolated at Smyrna, as stated in the Austrian Observer. the number did not exceed 200. The accounts of the slaughter of the Christians, at Sidonia, is unfortu nately near to the truth. Great numbers, however, of all classes, escaped in Greek vessels. The Pacha of Egypt is said to be in correspondence with the Greeks in the Morea, and the Druses of Mount Lebanon are reported to have taken oft' the Ottoman yoke, and to have defeated a corps sent against them by the Pacha of Damascus. In this state of affairs in Turkey, the politics of Russia are viewed with with suspicion, no doubt, by the Powers of Europe. It will be curious to see the Northern Autocrat, the great upholder of legitimacy, take part with the Greek Insurgents. The politics of the Holy Alli ance will soma become a hotchpotch confl:deracy, regardless of any thing in its appearance like har mony or consistency. THE FuNns.—.lll the brokers connected with Government have sold stock very largely, and as their means of inffirwatiun renders it probable that they act on sufficient grounds, the example is ful lowed by innumerable others, without knowing what they are. None of the causes assigned by ru mour appear to us to be sufficient. Changes of Ministry, new arrangements With the Bank re specting the payment of the dividends, the nature o Lord Walpole's mission to Constantaniople, and the relations between Russla and Turkey, arc alike subjects of discussion and alarm. On the whole, the panic, if nut quite unteundcd, has been much too great for the occasion, and the abundance of money which at present exists, is calculated to counteract the decline, and will, when a re-action takes place, materially assit it. In foreign stock the operations are languid and will probably continue so till the con tracts for the new loans with Spain and France arc completed —The arran;enicats for the different lists continue at Paris; but the parties will not b e accu rately known till the deposit, which the French minister insists on beffire °tiering fur the vontract, is made, when their names, it is expected, will be otii cially announced in the Mundeur. In the Spani•At loan the merchants at Madrid have entered into active.compction with the foreign capitalists, and it is supposed will be successful. We are at no certainty with respect to the form of the contract, except that it will contain provisions fur repayment in ten years. Neapolitan stock declines, awl Fru:snail improves in value.

At the conclusion of the late OM Bailey Sessions, the Foreman of the Lontlon Jury intimated to the Common Sergeant, who was presiding, that he had a commonication w ni.lke by the direction of his bro ther Jurors—he then began to read the following document, but was grossly interrupted by the Com mon Sergeant, who told him that the Jury were usurping what did not belong to them, and on the Foreman remonstrating, absolutely ordered him out of Court, under an impudent threat of committal lir contempt if he did nut immediately obey this gen tleman " dressed inn little brief authority:"— "'Hie !minion Jury cannot sap arate without inaking nil anxious appeal to the Court in behalf the prisoners who have been capitally convicted. By a conscientious discharge of the duties imposed on them, they have been csanpelled to commit the lives ot• individuals into the hands of their talow men, for °lance; varying in ellevacter and degree; and it behoves them to state then Lshogs of 41,ep rqtrct thst the absence of marked atrocity should not more an exemption ilOlll the dreadful sentence of death. Notaitlistandimg the high degree of confidence they would place in the merciful discrimination of those who arc invested with the final disposal of lives forfeited to the law, the painful apprehension caused by the uncertainty of remission tle;)rives them of tJe satislacqon which should follow their own verdict. Mason and humanity dictate the hope that the embar rassing difficulties attending the office of juror may be speedily removed; constrained .1S they now are by their oath to award a punishment so manifestly excessive us to demand the constant interposition of higher authority to prevent its being carried into efiect. It is their bumble desire, therefore, to communicate to his Majesty's council, through the humane offices of the Court, that the London .fury respectfully di cisim the extreme penalty which their verdicts would seem to nrvok•e on the criminals they have had in charge, and eartiesdy solicit their deliverance lions death." The above was approved and signed by all the Jurymen. OLD BAILEY SESSIONS. SATURDAY, JULY 27.—Tlit• Common Sergeant was occupied in the trials of several prisoners, whose cases possessed no interest.
