Monday 26th. We subjoin a few ex -tracts:— • [From the Etat., dated June 261 CONSTANTINOMZ, MAY 25. The accounts from Greece say that the Seraakier, after the fall of 3lissolonghi, marched towards Salona, and there is a report that that town, and even, as other persons affirm, Athens, and all Li corice, had offered their submission, but there is nothing to warrant the truth of these statements. Ibrahim, however, still remains at Patron. It is supposed that he is waiting fur the return of the Captain Paella, who is gone to th 6 Dardanelles to meet the new divi sion of ten men of war with which Ibrahim Bey is to join him. It was said that he intended to attack Hydra, but this is generally doubted ; meantime all the letters state that the greatest anarchy preraill in the islands.—..lvgsburgi Gazette. (From the Pilule•.) PARIS, JUNE 24. We lcurn by way of Marseilles that the humane intentions of M. Kynard are very aucassful. A great many slaves have bean ran somed, and among them, it Is said, is a son of Doturis. During the course of the sermons which the Abbe Guijon has just preached at Tou'ouse, a great quan , ity of philosophical books, several col lections of the works of Voltaire and Rousseau, and other works of Me 18th century, were brought to him. On time day of the departure of the Missionaries from that city, all these works, to the number of above five liund7cd, and consequently forming a large number of rolutnes, were given up to the fl oriel in the presence of a great many perboro, in :he house in which the Abbe Guijm lodged. it is thought that the inquiry before the Court of Peers will be _•r.ded next month, and that the Chamber will be then immediately orvuke:l as a Court of Justice. The King of Bavaria arrived at .!llunich on the lilth in the even :ng. on his return from Italy. The whole population, preceded by ltG3 al Family, went to meet his Majesty. In the evening there nas a general illumination, and the next day his Majesty laid the rir3t stunt tn . a new wing to the Royal Palace. There were several points which came into discussion during the Elections, on which we did not fed inclined to touch at that time, because, though already satisfied in our own minds, we thought it more advisable to watch public opinion in such cases, than to attempt to direct it. The public opinion has now manifested itstlf sufficiently to ob slate the necessity of any further reserve ; the people have pronounced themselves decidedly as being favourable to a liberal system of policy ; they have spewed themselves too enlightened to be led astray by the obsolete prejudices of our grandfathers ; and on the other hand, they have shewn, by the choice which they have made of their Representa tives, that they are not disposed to give their support to mete projectors in politics. The tone which was i n most cases assumed by the successful Candidates, was in exact conformity with the sentiments of their constituents. line exception to the liberality of opinion which occurred Turin;, the course of the elections, we are compelled to :Lake, on account of the respectability of the quarter from which the opinions emanated. Mr. GLADSTONE, in ilk speech at the Berwick election, observed that " there were' . two public topics, of importance to the State, which fre- ' •inently formed the subject of discussion in the last Parlia ment. Upon these," he continued, " I wish to say a few' words, as the interests of this borough arc intimately con nected with them. The first is the Corn Laws. That ques tion, the most important that has lately been agitated, nearly r,,ricerns this port—Berwick being the outlet of a great arienltural country. It is therefore the more incumbent upon me to state my views—they arc these : I will never advocate a free trade in foreign corn, subject to any duty ' whatever, for I am convinced such a nicaistre can never be either wise or politic. lam ready to grant, however, that some arrangement should if possible he made, but that must be cautiously and wavily gone about. Rut if we grow a sufficient quantity of corn of ourselves for home consumption, it is worse than absurd to admit foreign supplies. To this I must add, that the agricultural interest ought to be protected ; for upon It the prosperity, the pre servation of the empire depends. The second topic , in which you are also interested, is the Navigation Laws. Upon tl.is subject I am free to confess that I am by no means satisfied with the recent measures which have ob tained the sanction of the Legislature. As vessels can be built abroad at one-half the cost of this country, and as the wages of seamen and the price of provisions there are two-thirds lower than in this island, it is dangerous to put foreign nations upon a perfect equality with ourselves; for with these, and other advantages of a similar nature, it is impossible for us to compete with them. Ire ought, in our arrangements with Foreign Powers, to secure or reserve to ourselves some equivalent, before we submit to the system of reciprocity so warmly advocated by some parties." We are not inclimel to criticize very rigidly the opinions that are promulgated by Candidates at an election, either on the hustings or at the convivial meetings that follow in the train of a contest; but still we cannot !A silent when men of the calibre of Mr. GLADSTONr. put forth doctrines that to us appear so fundamentally erroneous. Mr. GLAD.. PTOE es station as a merchant—his experience as a Mem ber of Parliament, in sessions that have been prolific in important discussions relative to the commerce of the country—the knowledge he carried into Parliament on all matters relating to trade, render his observations, even during the ferment of an election, upon a subject of this nature, too important to be passed over without some at tention. We shall not make any further observations on the Na vigation Laws, having already repeatedly directed the attention of our readers to that %object. We shall confine our remarks to the Corn Laws, the abolition of which Mr. GLADSTONE so strenuously opposes. We will not attempt ! to deny that some private and local interests would be i compromised by the abolition of these laws; we will not I be so hardy as to deny that the agricultural interest of so much importance as to require every sacrifice to be made in support of it—except one—the sacrifice of the country itself ; we allow that it is a most prejudicial cir cumstance for any country to be dependent on another for its supplies of the necessaries of life. We grant all that can be required by the advocates of the Corn Laws, in the I shape of data, for determining the most important problem . We ask only one question—What do the agriculturists re quire? Whatever terms we use, their real demand is that they should be enabled, by the exclusion of foreign com petition, to make their own prices ; that thefahould levy a tax on all their countrymen ; that the manufacturers and growers who supply them with all other necessaries besides corn, should be eompelled to purchase it at a dear rate, and therefore be forced to demand a high price for their manufactures. The fact is, that the high price of corn does not benefit the agriculturist or the landowner. A low price produces distress among such farmers as have en gaged to pay high rents, because they then pay more than the due proportion of rent to produce; but a diminution of rents does not in reality abridge the means of a land lord to procure all the conveniences and luxuries of life — if that dimnution does not exceed the due proportion above mentiorted. This will appear by observing, in detail, the effect of high prices. When prices are high, the farmer receives a great deal of gold ; but that gold is of no value to him, but as a means of procuring such articles as he does not himself produce. Now nothing can be more clear than that other goods must increase in pricc in proportion as corn increases, and not only such goods as are raised and manufactured at home, but such as arc imported from foreign countries; because seamen's labour must always increase in price as other torts of labour increase, from the principle of equilibrium which pervades the whole system of political economy. This shears, we think clearly, that there is no real gain to be derived from high prices. It is true that other goods do not immediately fall to the proper level of corn in the same way as rents do—not immediately fall to the kva of prices, and lunce the temporary distress which would he consequent on an immediate and sudden introduction of foreign grain; but by a gradual process in admitting foreign corn, the transition may be smoothed, the pricer may have time to fall into an equilibrium, and the only difference which would then arise from the change would be, that landowners would have to receive fewer sovereigns, but would also have fewer to pay. Corn, it must be observed, is not the only produce of the land, and the grower of hops has just as much reason to complain of the grower of corn as the manufac turer has. The raising of the price of corn operates, in fact, against the grower himself, for he is himself a large consumer, and of course all that he consumes is to be deducted at the high price from the proceeds of his sales. Ali other produce of the ground, as we have stated before, must be increased in price, in proportion to corn, because no one would cultivate any other species of produce which would produce a less profitable return ; consequently all the produce of the farmer's own ground, or of other parts of this country, which he or his family consumes, must in like manlier be deducted at the high rate from the attlouitt of his sales. We can compare the effect of the gradual rise of prices to nothing more properly than to the conti nual increase of the ages of half a dozen persons. They all increase equally ; their relative ages continue the same; and it would be as ridiculous to say that the corn dealer gained any thing in point of comfort or luxury by high prices, as to assert that one of these half dozen persons could possibly outstrip the others in age, and become older than those who were formerly older than he was. There is only one difference in both cases—all get older together so under our present system all commodities increase in price together. No one is benefited relatively to another, but the whole is injured relatively to foreign countries by this general enhancement of goods, as compared with the standard of value. CITY, TUESDAY EVENING. Rumours of various descriptions, all bearing a gloomy aspect, were very freely circulated this morning, which had the effect of lowering Consols a quarter per cent. They opened at 79, 1 , de. dined to 79i, and closed at 791, buyers. There was no cause for this decline whatever, beyond the too easy credence given to those rumours, which bad been created for Stock Jobbing purposes ; for the accounts from the manufacturing districts were not of the un favourable *raver which had been so industriously circulated. There cofiffnues to be considerable agitation in the Foreign Mar ket, and some anxiety for the settling-day, which takes place this week. Mexican have fluctuated from 55 to 534; Colombian from 37 to 3ili. Brazilian Stock, it was expected, would fall consider. ably on the report of Insurrections in the northern provinces.

Eyre.'" Mason ERADE.—The indefatigable Charles Wright en tertained the town last night with another of those enter tainments, which have rendered the Argyll Room so de servedly popular, and which was announced as the last masquerade for the season. It was extremely well attend ed, which may be ascribed in some measure to the circum stance that both the great theatres were closed, as well as many other place of public amusement. There were a great number of characters present, but none that can be referred to as distinguishable for novelty. The spirit of fun and frolic, however, presided throughout the night, and was unchecked by any of those disagreeable occur rence which have too frequently detracted from the enjoy ment of persons who visit such entertainments for the sole purpose of passing an evening in the indulgence of inno cent mirth. Notwithstanding the heat of the weather, (lancing was the order of the night, and at an advanced hour this morning we left a large proportion of the com pany engaged in stepping through the mazy circles of the waltz, or the more graceful, but not less animated atti tudes of the light quadrille. A considerable number of English workmen, who had gone to France in search of work, have arrived at Bou logne Sur Aler lately, on their way home, in great distress. To prevent a recurrence of these unhappy emigrations, the Treasurer of the fund raised at Boulogne for the relief of the distressed English, has given notice that in future assistance will be afforded only in cases of local distress. DREADFUL FIRE AT BOONOR.—Capt. Clarke, com manding Sir Godfrey Webser's yacht, ordered a dinner at the Royal Hotel, Bognor, for 175 persons, on their return from polling at Chichester. About the middle of the day, in conicquence of the preparations for the dinner, one of .the flues in the scullery, caught fire, which commun . cated Ito the wbole building, and from thence to the adjacent cottages, between twenty and thirty of which were de stined. ,We are happy . to hear that no lives were lost. Yesterday afternoov, between three and four o'clock, a most tremendous hailstorm visited the town of St. Al bnsthree inches in circumference, f e ll, and broke Piecesrokete windows ice , of many houses. One person has sustained a loss to the amount, it is ::aid, of 1001. by this occurrence. The windows of the New Inn, which was opened two or three days ago on the New Cut, were all molesi less broken. The corn in the neighbourhood was beaten down, and considerable damage was done to the gardens. A good deal of rain fell several miles on each side of St. Alban's, but there was no hail except at that place. ALDERSGATE Waan.—Yesterday being the day ap pointed for the election of an Alderman for the Ward of Aldersgate, in the room of the late Mr. Alderman Cox, a special Court was held at the Dispensary, Altlersgate street ; anti Sir Peter Laurie having been proposed by Mr. Veto, and seconded by Mr. John Rolls, was declared una• nimously elected. FUNERAL. OF Mr.. ALDERMAN CO:C.—The remains of the late Mr. Alderman Cox were yesterday consigned to the family vault in St. Botolph's Church, Aldersgate-street. The funeral was perfectly neat, and conducted throughout without any nstenta. tion. The hearse, containing the body, left Hart.sts'et, Blooms bury, about one o'clock, followed by two mourning coaches, con. taming the son, nephew, and other relatives of the deceased. The interior of the church, the galleries, pulpit, and altar-piece, were hung with black crape. Previous to the funeral service being read, Miss Elect, the organist of St. Botolph's, Bishopsgate, per formed the " Dead March in Saul." in a at) lc that reflected great credit upon 4ier. It had it powerful effect upon the congregation, which was exceedingly numerous. The following inscription was placed on the coffin, which was a plain black one.—" Robert Al bion Cox, Esq. only surviving son of tile late Will Om and Martha Cox, of Pidillethrenthyde, in the county of Dorset.

Does not recollect that she told the mother she would be a witness. The thing passed like lightning, in spite of her. She wished to kill the child at the time. She abandoned Goal that day. She thought of nothing. She had not experienced any misfortunes before going to live at Fournier's. She was sometimes sad, she did not know why. She was unhappy, and wished to destroy herself in September. Went to the Pont du Change, to throw herself into the river. Was prevented by the tear of God.

The amount of the Dock and Light Duties received at thin port has always been regarded as the best criterion of the comparative Ahte orb* trade at different periods. The accounts ate' made up on the 24th of June in each year, and the documents contair•.ing them are always looked for with considerable curiosity by all per sons who feel interested in the commercial prosperity of Liverpool. From the late unprecedented stagnation in trade and commerce, it was generally supposed that the receipts at the hock-office would exhibit a considerable decrease in amount, as compared with those of the preceding year. We are happy, however, to have it in our power to state, that, instead of the accounts exhibiting a decrease, they chew an increase of not less titan 2,73111. 4s. 3d., when corn pared with the income in 1824-5. An abstract of these important and interesting accounts is subjoined. It will be seen from it, that although there was a decrease of 1,236 in the number of vessels that entered the port during the last year, there was an increase in the tonnage of 4,416 tons. The diminution in the number of ves sels is, we undersumd, accounted for by the increased numbers)f large steam-boats which are now engaged in the Irish and Scotch trade, and which have thrown out of employment many sail-vessels of comparatively small tonnage titat were previously engaged in it. But we have not room for extended remarks on the staiement, and content ourselves with calling the attention of our readers to the following abstract of the accounts A comparnilve Account of the Amount of Dock and Light Duties. received at the Port of Liverpool, for twelve monthe, in the years 1824-5 and 1e25-4, commencing each year uu 25tb June, and eadlng on the 2.1111 June.

BRANCH BANKS OF THE BANK OF L•N(;LAND [From the Gloucester Joarrpoll We have been favoured with a perusal of Om application was made t.) the Bank of England, in April last, with rim view of insiueinktlicur to establish one of data, Brartelo4 at Gloucester. The spin:cation led to much inqui r y an d Inserts ation on the part of tha Mat*, the result of which so eompletely substantiated eta several ststementa contained in it, as to the tethers local advan tagvs of Gloucester, that the Hank ultion.tely decidtel to act on it rwommendation, and We hope spaelily to see our neighbours reap ing the fruits of this derision. Thinking that a perus.l of this do cument will be gratifying to our readers at this juncture, we sub join a copy of it for link purpose; but we have not app ndrel the gentleman's name by whom the application wes jnatle, because lit to:adders the measure me ',hog( thee of a palate Amore, and totally unconnected with peramsl consider.itions. It is tied rsteeol to be the intentit n of the Bank of Englthd to establish Branch Banks at certain stations : and in the Hie,- ing observations it is reposed to elle, that Olouceiter is, from ate aggregation of circumstances, general and particular, the Rees: point Cm such an establishment, with reference to South Wales and the w eetrn parts of England.

" In whatever direction a line is drawn from Gloucester, it vat be found to radiate into a populous and inn outset vier. ige, which seems to point it out as a fit station for the establishment of a Branch Bank of the nature here referred to. It may. perhaps, be objected, that its population is small, as compared with Bristol or Birmingham: it is, however, rapidly increasing; and no conchs. sion ought to be drawn from its present actual amount, as to the comparative import:ince or otherwise of Gloucester, either in 'pi'e, or with reference to the adjoining coentry.—Bristol is now, is fact, the port of Gloucester, a large portion of its imports being destined tor, and its exports received from, the River Severn and ' the country bordering on it. These goods are now, for the mos: part, transhipped at Gletteester, both in passing uttered' and downwards; but the circuitous and expensive route by Bristol will no longer be adhered to. when the Olouces'er and Berkeley Canal shall he opened, as it will be in the course of the present summe: ; for then seaborne vessels of two, three, four, aid even of five ben d?, d tons burthen, will be enabled to pass up the Canal with fe licity to the wharfs at Gloucester, where eccommotiaion for thee teception, and the deposit of their cargoes, is actively preparing-- Gloucester will then become entirely, and in fact, what firistol Ithe hitherto partially. but most inconseniently been—the port of the Biter Severn and its comntunieatioes: it will rapidly increase in extent and population; and a Branch Bank established here; will at once promote and participate in its growth, till it shall se.. tain to a degree of importance commensurate to the many *ting e rages of its situation. The foregoing reasons in favour of Gloucester, as a station for a Branch Establishment from the Bank of England, are founded, for the most part, on its Mutation and localities, and are nhogethet unlimited as to time, and perfectly general in their nature and sp. 'pile:than. Whet follows has reference to this particular juncture, which seems to present's peculiarly faveurable opening for the foe 'nation of such an Establishment here. In December last, Turners and Morris, bankers, of Gloucester, suspended me-mew% Their transactions were very considerable in amount, and their notes eircoleit (Invent!' the ant rrountling country, and nearly through. out the whole of South Wales. Their suspeosion, therefore, caused( great distress at the time, which has been increased by suleseetitee failure,. of many other banks in the reighboitrhood, some even very recently. These events have caueed an almost total stagnation uT every sort of business throutthoot the country, to the serious injury of all classes of the community. and to the entire ruin of numerous deeming individuals. The whole country, in short, is naralyseu. and is thirsting for a healthy circa lion, which tile Bank of Eng land might afford it in the most advantageous form, by means ut a Branch at Gloucester. `• This subject is well deserving the attentive consideration of the Bank I)ireetors, being highly interesting in a national point of •iew, and most deeply important in its cimsequences to the city of Gloucester. and to all the country bordering on and conamant. eating with it." F I MARKETS. [From the London Neu Price Current) COTTON.—There was more business by private contract Mat week, and shout 900 bales have been sold, viz.—.9o Pernams 10ed. ; 70 Boweds 7d. a ad. ; 210 Surat* eid. a sed. ; 400 Bengali a bid, in bond ; and, duty paid, 200 Egyptians 7/el. a led. The East India Counpany'e sale on Friday was thinly attended ; the Bengali, which were of ordinary quality, were all bought in at rad. ; fur the Sunlit there was an export demand, about two-thirds sold, rather below the prices übteineel by private contract. SIAM R.—The Sugar market, after the day of our publicatitm (Tuesday) last week, became heavy, and the purchases reported by private contract were trivial till towards the clue of Friday, when the sales were considerable; there was no alteration in the prices. The Sugar market opened this morning with rather a heavy ap pearance; the stock of Museovailes is nearly the same as in 1825,the deliveries are also to about the same extent, with the exception of Mauritius, of which the delivates for the home consumption or the country are still very considerable, and appear increasing, as the quality is much apprneed of ; last week 2692 bags wee tie. livered for home use.

Barbadoes sold steadily kis. a 665. ; we make no alteration in the currency. There has lately been a new feature in our markets, the Foreign houses purch.aseri:. considerable pi:eels of raw Sugar for relining on. the Continent, owing, no doubt, to the reduction of the bounty on Refined, a inch takes place the sth proximo ; the exports of raw, we have observed for several weeks past, being a consequence of those treasures by the Ministers destructive to the trade of England. In the Refined market last week there was great briskness in low goods ; lumps. loaves and crashed, arid all descriptions suitable for export ; these I orders, which are extensive, has been delayed tiil a late day, in the expecation of lower prices, and now they must be peremptorily I carried into execution previously to the sth proximo, when the re:. (faction of the bounty takes place ; the prices were a shade highe r all goods suitable for the home consumption were heavy and rather lower. Alolasees advanced to 245. 6d. and were brisk. The re. fined trade is again brisk this morning, particularly in the export demand ; the wholesalc grocers appear also to pay attention to the rapid decrease of the stock ; they have purchased tn.day for 'he home consumption of the country to a considerable extent. Mo. lasses are brisk at 25t. COFFEE.—The public sales o: Priti•h Plantation Coffee last week went rather heavily, but there was no alteration in the cur. rency.
