43acitZurst4t• LONDON, MONDAY, SEPT. 24. Three o'clock, p.m. The Paris Papers of Thursday last have arrived. They contain nothing conclusive on the subject of peace or war between Russia and Turkey. They assert, that the Emperor Alexander had set out for Odessa, and that Russian troops were to enter Wal lachia and Moldavia on the 29th ult. The private letters from Paris anticipate war; but this will totally depend upon the negociations now in progress among the diarent Continental Powers. Some weeks ago it was affirmed, that the King of Prussia was to march :In army to co-operate with the Russians; but the tone of the Cabinet of Berlin has suddenly emn..:,(:(l, and it is now said that Prussia will preserve a strict system of neutrality. The polities of the Court of Vienna also scout to have undergone a change. :1 is conjectured that the Russian Autocrat clainkd the assistance of the Emperor Francis in carrying into effect his project against Turkey, on the ground of Russia having co-operated with A us tria to subjugate Naples, and to overthrow the Con stitutional Government, but the Cabinet of Austria now perceives how adverse it would be, nut only to her interests, but the ‘vellare of Europe, if Russia should obtain any accession of territory in Turkey. —The different accounts published in the Foreign Journals arc to answer political purposes, without much regard to veracity. We do not expect to bear any thing decisive until a Declaration is issued by the Allies, arising out of the present negociatious. In Spain the plot-makers are busily at work, as they were some time ago in this country. Riego has b;en deprived of his post as Captain-General of Arragon, and sent a prisoner to the fortress of Le ride. He is said to have been engaged in a conspi r acs to subvert the present government of Spain, and to establish a Republic, at the head of which he was to be placed as Dictator. He is further charged in the ultra royalist journals with being implicated with Montarlot, a French refugee, in a plot to expel the Bourbons from France, and to re-establish in that country the Constitution of 1791. Montarlot It ad been apprehended, and confined in the fortres. o • JAM In a proclamation which he is said to have drawn up, addvesseil to the French people, he styles himself General in Chief of the constitutional ar mies, and President of the Grand Empire of France. This production, however, is such a tissue of rho domontade and absurdity, that we have little doubt of its being a gross fabrication. The arrest of Riego Traduced great ferment at Madrid, where the revo lutionary orators of the Club Fontana, it is said, exclaimed against the measure, as an act of servile deference to the French Government.

K—, a gentleman well known the sportiN world. The cause of dispute ori ginated on 'facsday afternoon at a house in St. James's-street, in consequence of the Captain ex pressing it as his opinion that the late pugilistic contest on Crawley Downs, between Randall and Martin, was e erect (i.e. a sold battle.) The parties by agreement fired at ten paces, when the Captain received the ball of his antagonist in the upper part of his right (the pistol) arm: the principal and I.x.mtds then left the ground, and proceeded by way of Wandsworth to London, when the ball was extracted. lie was afterwards conveyed to his residenoe in the, vicinity of the tavern where the quarrel originated, and his early recovery is by no means considered doubtful. Sir Robert WilsJii has arrived in town from Paris. A subscriptio t has etanmenced for purchasing an annuity for this gallant officer. The fiat in the last is D 501. THE NATIONAL REGISTER OLD BAILEY SESSIONS. SATURDAY, SEPT. Q 2. . .

King, is a law writer; that, on the Ist of Angust lust, his Child was Pilling at his door, in Chichester Rents, Chancery Lane, idiom nine iii the evening, and that the prisoner came up and said, " My litile dear, will you go with me and May some nice c.ikvs ?" The child answered " Yes; but that •lie most ask her mother test." She then went in doors and asked her mother, who refused permission; and Mr. King heard her say, 011 her rollout to the door, that "she twist not go." In Ortiaoce of this refusal, however, the pi r enticed both the child in question and another child, almost eight ".trt old, wliti as as will, her, to ac enilipany ht r down Cumin ry Lam. As they proceeded together, the attention of Mr. Ilitt Ewell, a neighbour was attracted towards the group, Irian something which the prisoner said, and which led him to believe she was a stranger to the children. tlis sitspiriiiiis being excited, lie follow ed them, and meeting the beadle of the parish, lie intimated 10 him his doubts as to the intention of the prisonet.

Mr. Law appealed as Cotinsel for the prisoner. Two witnesses gale the prisoner a good character as to hune.ly.

He was immediately cut down, down, and medical assistance being at hand, was hap. pray restored.

Q 4. We had this morning an abundant supply of Wheat front the coasts of Essex, Kent, and Suffolk, but the demand nut being very brisk, the finest samples submitted to a reduction of full es. per qr., and the inferior descriptions a further reduction. Barley maintains last week's prices. Oats arc full Is. per qr. cheaper, basing a large supply; and the market, generally speaking, seeing to be rather lower than last week. The reduction In. Wheat since this day week may be quoted front Bs. to 10i. per qr. but Flour is not to-day any cheaper. There appears to be yet no disposition on the part of the speculators to give way any more than can be possibly avoided, nor of the consumers to pur chase, at the present prices, more than what is absolutely neces sary for present use, consequently the market is kept very fiat.
