• lan Vosldcript. LOND3N, MO.DAY, APRIL 29. 77/ ree the Paris papers of Frid , y last assert, that up to the `25111 ult. which is the latest account from Coo stantinople, no answer had been returned to the joint requisition of the Foreign Ambassadors. for the im mediate evacuation of the Principalities. The im mense treasures of Ali Paella were daily arriving at Constantinople, and are alone sufficient to furnish the teeans of carrying on the war, while Russia is in want of the necessary finances to bring a large army into the field. Among other idle rumours in some of the Paris journals, it is said, that England, Aus tria and Russia meditate the partition of European Turkey, and that Constantinople is to be tiic seat of the new Greek Government. In opposition to the accounts from Zante, of the sth ult. in the Frankfort papers, stating the Greeks to have been defeated in the late naval actions with the Turks, a letter was received from Leghorn on Saturday, dated the 13th, from unquestionable authority, announcing that the Turkish fleet had suffered a signal defeat, and re turned into Porte, after a loss of Welty-six ships.--- It is also added, that Zante was illuminated on the occasion, contrary, no doubt, to the wish of the Con stituted authorities and the Lord High Commis sioner of the lonian Isles. The rumours of the Turks being victors were circulated, no doubt, by the agents of the Porte, to prevent any popalar effervescence among the Janissaries that would en danger the peace of the Capital or the safety of the Government. FRANKFORT, MARCIi IG.--.Extract Of a letter front Constantinople, dated the 23d of March " Nothing new from the North. The Austrian vessels seized have been confiscated, and conveyed to the arsenal. The Captains and crews, who were Greeks, are in prison. These ships came from Odesa They carried supplies for the Greeks. A vessel with the Russian flag has also been seized. The Captain, who is a Greek, says he is protected by Russia. A' Cap sin, really a Russian, who had brought supplies for the Insurgents, claimed the protection of the Austrian Embassy, which could not keep him. was given up. The Captain of the Port of Tazo last week boardedteery Christian vessel on its arrival and forced the officers to undergo examination on shore. The Active, a French armed vessel, which was near being boarded by the Captain made sell and got off. The Ottoman Government have re sorted to these measures, because many European ships under the French flag have got into the Black sea, with goods intended for the Greeks." The Pelham, Leeward Islands packet, has brought letters from St. Thomas's to the 12th of March.— The intercourse with the Spanish Main was in a slate of some activity, and goods were taken off freely by purchasers from the interior, who before had been much discouraged by the projected expedi tion of the Royalists against Coro, ((vices to the end of February had been received at St. Thomae's from the city of St. Domingo, which was then, in appearance, settled, and enjoying tranquillity, under the Government ef Uoyer. Some sensation was cre sted there by information that an expedition against Samuna, a settlement on the eastern side of the island of St. Domingo, bud sailed from Ilartinique. This force was said to be 11 transports, with 2000 troops on board, under convoy of Admiral Jacob.— The letters from Martinigee announce the failure of the house of Eyma and Co. a mercantile tistab.i' sh them of great eminence on that island. SELECT VEKTRIEI.---A t Waltoneon-Thanies, an attempt has been lately made to establish a select vestry in that parish. The inhabitants, generally, were decidedly inimical to the measure, and resolved to frustrate the intentions of those who were advo cates fig an abridgment of their parochial privileges. A meeting having been convened fur the purpose of 11:sousing the subject, the parishioners assembled in such numbers us convinced those with whom the question originated of the obvious futility of the at. temyt ; indeed, so satisfied were they upon this point, that they immediately anneunced their intentien of dropping the proceedings. FOR THE Hoomu-Covas.e—Dissolve a scruple of salts of tartar in a gill at water, and ten grains of cochineal finely powdered ; sweeten this with tine sugar. Give to an infant the fourth part of a tableespounful fiber times a day; and from titer years and upward a spoonful may be taken. The teite,lii immediate, and the cure, in general, in five or sir days —*l he above roruedy has never failed in NIT one instance. THE NATIONAL REGISTER COURT OF -KING'S BENCH. VATVHDAY. APRIL 47. HARDY AND ANOTIIIIR V. ROYCE AND OTHERS. Mr. Sergeant Frere applied for a stew trial in this case, or to have the damages awarded to the plaintiffs reduced. It ♦vas an action against the plaintiffs, who are Woollies. tees in Staffordshire, against the defendants, proprietors of a stage coach, and was tried at the late Norfolk assizes. It appeared that on the 15th of Febrile' y. the coach of the defendants was overturned, and a person waved Buttoitield, an outside passenger, in the service of the plaintiffs as a traseller, was so severely hurt, that he, after lingering till the ISili April, died, in consequence of the injury he sustained in his fall. The plaintiffs brought their action tor the expellees they had been at in supple; ling the deceased, and for medical attendance, as we I as fur the amount of two months es ages, and the spe. eial damage sustained by the liNs of his services. The Learned Sergeant now contended, that the plaintiffs could not sustain this action after the decease of the per. son injured, and that if they could, the damages in this case is ei e excessive. The Court said, as the rase was new,• they would grant a rule to shew cause. THE HIND n. HNATCHBULL AND OTHERS. Mr. SiorkessLl, the delcudants iu this case, who had been convicted of a conspiracy, were desirous to apply fur a Writ of Habeas Corpus to bring him up. The Chief Justice said, tinder these circumstances, unless the Counsel for the prosecution objected to it, the Court would dispeuse with his attendance. Mr. Gurney said, after the intimation thrown not by his lordship, the prosecutors would not call ter Mr. litiatclibull's attendance, or put blip to any unnecessary expence. COURT OF CON] MON PLEAS. SATURDAY, APRIL 27. HERIOT ON THE HORSE SNIOLENSRO. Mr. Sergeant Pell said, that the plaintiff in this case was N. °attend, Esq. and the iletimdants J. Jekyl and T. Cunningham, trustees under the will of the late Sir C. Banbury, Bart. The action was brought by the plain tiff as lord of the manor of Park ball, Essex, to recover a considerable sum of money, the produce of horses sold at Tattersall's, the propel ty of the late Sir C. Brinbary, In tight of his lordship, as heriuts for a copyhold estate, in which Sir Charles h ad a life interest, Tbe question was one ofvery great novelty, and of considerable importance. The copyliold estate lielrl by the late Sir Chillies Bitubury was a very small one, and had, in consequence of the form of transmission, mice adopted between one sister and another, been made divisible into fourteen separate parts, and the real question was, whether the lord of the manor ill not thereby, upon the death of the holder's life interest, In come entitled, nut to one heriut, according to the original torn of the copy hold, but to fourteen, in con sequence of its fourteen divisibijitiesi' Sir C. fliinbary, it is well known, was a gentleman who kept up a very large and valuable stud of horses, At the time of his death he hail twenty-two valuable horses at his grazing farm of Earton, in Suffolk ; and lie bad besides a most valuable race.hurse, called Smolensk°, who was in the care of a gentleman in the Imola of England, Sniolemko, other horses, were sold at Taitersall's after the death of Sir Charles ; the racer brought 1,300 guineas, and an ac tion was brought by the lord of the manor to recover the produce of that sale, in virtue of his light to the fowler ii lieriuts. The July found a verdict for the plaintiff, es. chiding the value of Smolensk(' ; and his present *pith cation was fur a new trial, un the ground that the gnclusion of that horse from the amount was against the evidence upon which alone the Jury were bomill to decide.

About noon on the 14th they were getting ready to put to sea, when they thought they could distinguish a signal of distress ; attentive only to the dictates of courage and humanity, and resolved to perform quarantine case of necessity, they immediately embarked, and soon got on board the vessel. What was their auto. nigliment on finding the captain, his two daughters, and cabin-boy alive, covered by a tarpaulin, and supported by a cable on which they had taken r e fu ge !--Who would nut have been tauched with euil,igission at beholding this unfintunato captain, who as one stroke had rust his wife, his son, and his whole crew, and who, to complete his Widor• tunes, was suffering most excruciating pain from a broken leg ! In this dreadful situation lie would have inevitably perished, had not his eldest daugh ter, who is about 13 years of age, happily thought of making a signal with an handkerchief, which was perceived by M. Missend de la 4.luussaye. The captain receives every possible attention tutd kind ness from the Sieur holland, at whose house he is Itaiged.

Howen, who died rather suddenly on Tuesday last. It appeared Item the evidence, that the deceased went to bed the previous night remarkably well, and on her husband, who is a well-known bird-dealer, near the Sessions-house, getting up the next morning, about eight o'clock, he attempted to arouse her, but without effect he then awoke two other women, who were sleeping its the house, and who, on stirring the deceased, declared her to be dead. Surgical assistance was sent for, and the medical gentlemen promptly attending, applied the usual restoratives, but without avail, as the untertrinate woman,. in their opinion, had been dead some hours.— There were.nolinarks of violence about the body, and the Jury, which was the most respectable, alter a short consultation, returned a verdict of, died by the visitation of God. 161tes.
