THE NATIONAL REGISTER Lannon Duatur.—Holiday at the Exchequer, Bank, South Sea, and East Indio Hanes. Vodtdcript• LONDON, MONDAY, SEPT. 3. Three o'clock, p.m. The intelligence which the Paris Papers of Thurs day contain differs widely from the accounts received during the preceding week, with respect to the state of affairs between the Porte and Russia. It is pro bable that the first account transmitted to this country of the Divan having acceded to the Russian Ultimatum was correct, although the Porte retracted a portion of its concessions. The latter circumstance, it appears, according to the despatches transmitted from the Austrian Minister at Constantinople, to Vienna, occasioned the sudden departure of Baron Strogonotr from Bujutadere to Odessa, as he must have incurred the displeasure of his Court, had he rtmtained a moment longer after the Porte I.ad departed from its first determination, as stated, of accepting of the whole of the Ultimatum without any qualiiication. In consequence of these adverse circumstances great movements had taken place in the Russian and Prussian armies on both sides the P:Atth, a Council extraordinary of the Austrian Nli- Listen, were held at the house of Count Metternich, on the 18th of last month, and, at its rising, des patches were forwarded to St. Petersburgh, London, and the Austrian Commanders in Transylvania, and the Bannat of Temeswar. The despatches for London, it is said, reached the Marquis of London derry while or u visit at Slane Castle, and are sup• posed to be of such importance, that it will hasten his Lordships return from Ireland, to consult with the Cabinet on the present unexpected change in foreign politics. It was on the Ist of July that Ba ron Stroganoff sailed for Odessa. The same day a vessel arrived at the latter port from Constantinople, which was supposed to bring despatches for Count Wittgenstein, as that General set off next day for the Lead-quarters of the Russian army on the Pruth. Hostilities were expected to commence immediately after the arrival of Baron Strogonoff at Odessa. The Russian army at Bessarabia had been reinforced by the 17th division, with a park of artillery. The Ottoman troops in Moldavia and Bassarabia were concentrating on the right bank of the Pruth. Their force, according to one estimate, which we should conceive to be exaggerated, is stated at 100,000 men. An article from Corfu, of the 21st July, contains a proclamation from the President and Senate of the lonian Islands, recalling all the lonian subjects— who have dared to declare themselves chiefs and leaders of the Cephalonians and Zacynthians," and at the head of an armed force, consisting of lonians, to take an active part in the war of the Pelepon nessus, contrary to the rights of nations, and in violation of the neutrality y.hich the lonian govern ment has engaged to maintain. They are com manded to desist from their cuterprize in the space of fifty-one days, and threatened in case of disobe dience with perpetual banishment from the lonian territory, the sequestration of their property and yersunal prosecution as criminals, if they should ever full into the hands of the government. As to the other lonian subjects, who have been seduced from their duty by these chiefs, and have acted un der their orders, they are ordered to return imme diately, if they do not wish to suffer the utmost severity of the law. Letters received from Edinburgh say, that Sir W. Les and Co., the bankers there, havegiven notice that in consequence of money being so plentiful, they eon only allow 3 and a halt per cent. for deposits ; and where the sums ate small, only 3 per cent. Mr. Kinitaird the ni..gistrute died on Saturday nio.ning last, ufier ati illness of some months. The Huntcrian Museum at Glasgow was lately presented by Lady Keith with a gold sovereign of the reign of (loci n Elizabeth, two antique coins found in a temple in the plain ot Marathon, in Greece; two antique coins finind in the temple of Juno at Athens; and three ancient coins from the temple of Jupiter Olympus m Athens. Letters from Naples say, we have bad here for some days a true prodigy, a boy ten years of age, of a noble Hungarian family, named Sigismund de Praun. He recently made his appearance at Rome, at the Theatre Argentina, when he executed in per. fection a sonata on the violin, in which the cele brated Pagenini often chose to display his talent in execution. But what is infinitely more surprising, the young Sigismund is not less versed in literature and the sciences than in music. After he had main tained on public theses in the must important ques tions, the Archi Gymnasi awarded him with a large gold medal. This wonderful child was presented to his Holiness, who, delighted with his answers, con ferred on him the Order of the Golden Spur, and also nominated him a Count of the Apostolic Palace. A respectable body of landed proprietors, as a means of assisting their tenants, have agreed by subscription to support an establishment of light caravans, principally to supply the London markets with fresh butter, &c. from the dairy farms situated near the roads leading from Exeter and Taunton to London. The plan is arranged to convey such goods into market us quickly us those from Buckingham and Cambridgeshire; which, frum their freshness, command a superior price to those sent salted from Devon, Dorset, and Somerset, where the value is greatly reduced by the competition it Dutch and other salt butter. The establishment, it is evident, must materially benefit the dairy farms, now sadly distressed, and become generally useful to trade by a quicker and cheap transfer of goods. AN IN,LBSIBLL JURYMAN !—At the Lincoln us sizes an indictment was preferred against William Williams, for a riot at Stamford on the I 1 th of Nov. last (on the occasion of the withdrawal of the hill of pains and penalties), and breaking the windows in house of Mr. Hunt. Mr. Denman made a powerful address to the Jury, and insisted that there was no riot. The Judge, in summing up, said, that no man could upon his oath say it was not a riot; after which, the Jury withdrew, and were absent for about two hours, when the Foreman came into court, and said he was desired to ask whether, if eleven were agreed in the verdict, and only one held out, tht:se 11 might be discharged? The Judge said it was impossible. At the expiration of five hours the independent and inflexible Juryman came into Court, and said that the other 11 had agreed to find the defendant guilty, but he could not reconcile it to his conscience to say that Williams bad riotously demolished Mr. Hunt's windows, the Jury, there fore wished to know whether the Judge would withdraw him and appoint another in his place.— The Judge said lie could not. The business of the Court ended at five o'clock. At half past 8, when the Jury sworn on this indictment had been fur ten hours locked up, and the conscientious gentleman declared that he would sooner eat the mortar of the ceiling than give in, the eleven others, rather than be carted on the circuit to Nottingham (as the law requires in case the twelve cannot agree to return a verdict), resigned their judgment and gave in at the Judge's lodgings a vtrdict tar the defridant. The late Jitader at Highgate.—The inquiry respecting this inhuman outrage is carrying on by the proper au. dimities with unabated activity.
