The following is, an extract rt•iative to the movements made by Russia, hi consequence • 4.1 hostilities with Persia [From the Et Ate.] 7he Emperor has directed a great number of fre.li troops to march upon the side of the Caucasus, kt enter to rem forca the army of Georgia. The Persi , na, on their part, have advanced upon and to waded two or three filahometan provinces belonging to Russia, ad which are adjoining its frontier. Doubtless they ar: thm , e which are situated on the side of the Hour, which waidiesrd., and intersects the whole of Georgia. Those proeintos, upon t, Mich t'•e least deprodroce was plactl, have remained faithful. Acatn:• :'g to the barbarous custom of the t Wentalists- Prince Menr.koft a nd his officers are retained as prisoners in Persia. Every thing tends to show that there is no probability of a campaign being colo r:yr:aid with ♦igottr on either side in tienrgia, previous to next :tong. Ittimetwe ewer. with tnonstrous fivers, and without modges, hoproct'eable roads• awl the povery of the country, pre. sent obstacles in a had season to the rapid march or an army, esen at a time when they mcet with no resistance. The PcrsiaLs be very well able to keep for some time piwoo.sion of the .:umrba which they have invaded. but they will not make art) further progress, nor will they be capable of g. ring beyond Caucasus. And so, as it appears :11ingreio, Immeritia, tool • part of the Georgian provinces, have remeined fai,1,1 , 11, the F. Asians can send supplies by the Eliwk See. and thetaive the Pe-•ians upon their flanks. A war with Perds is a grievous t.:'rg for ; for, whatever may be the crack, it will occa s :7' great embarrassment in its finances. IS'hen a Russian army oisses its European frontiers, it finds great facilities both of ob. ng subsistence for itself and for its transports; but upon the • -untie? of Asia it our It create every thug. In making war in tieorgia, Russia will male it upon its own territory ; and con. ,:Jett will bo attended with nu odeart , ge. On the other baud, toe Enterer, whose tastes and milhary ardour would in see him to place himself at the head of the army, and to usage on Use operations with vigour• cannot, under preser.t circurn ,:lanees, go far from his Ettroran estates; and notwithstanding the a..t.eity a n d talents of Generals VerinalnlT and Poskewiteh, things acre out c inducted with :111( unity of purpose, and that rapidity of roevemetit, a hitt the presence of his Ilejtsty would have ptotluced• ';he Entp:ror„ on going honk Moscov, will, it is rail, visit Toula flalungs, and go thrtutc,ll Nischin-Norogotod oral Jaroslaw. departwe will take place about tl:c 12.11 Oct.

To.maelow Synth's, SATURDAY, October 14, wia b . / perfume,' the I From the Juar not der DAils.l It is generally reported that the P,mperor of Riist.ia has an t °united to the other great European Powers his intention of taking possession of Wallachia and in the event of no L!mgrer being given to his ultimatum by the time fixed; and tt is said that the terms propolei are considered so moderate hy the ot!.er Powers, as to be entirdy approved of. Peace has urecalled :it Constantinople since the fire, but the misery ei the Turks and the Armenians, who hove n.) asylum, s...:rpaiaes all description. There revising no doubt that the t.-e was the r/Olrk of the Janissaries, The Div„ and the e.ritao himself appear to be more trimly than ever. This is in tl:rred from their anxiety to appease the ',met cLs•e,t, by keeping tro prices of loutish:Ls lower than has been known for the last re it years. News has been rer..ired at Surr.liri of 01: retaking of the city if Athens by the PrTT:lust:Y:ill, SETT. 20. The Emperor of Russia has hotted a Uoe-ec• for it.e suppression a7d panialner.t of the peasarrry who still display a spiritist i-subordinatom. ..fhe information which we have received from almost every quarter of Great Britain and Ireland has enabled LA to toake up the following impartial statement of the results of the harvest in the United Kingdom. The par ticulars must b 2 peculiarly interesting at the present moment. (he Wlaest crop, bring less liable to injury fr , m drought t' an most other species of produce, has suffered has, un t'4ubtedly, in all parts, than the other descriptions of grain. 1•2 some particular counties the crop of Wheat may be considered a full average, but in many pallets it can scarcely be estimated at more than a very ma.letate average, having been forced by the heat into a premature ripeness, which diminished its quantity as much as it added to the excellency of its quality and condition. Though Barley is said in some districts to be a good crop, we cannot assert upon the whole, judging from the concurrent testimonies received from most of the counties, that the crop exceeds two-thirds of the usual average, but the quality has every appi arance of proving excellent. As to the crop of Oats, the accounts, we are sorry to say, are of a very different nature. This species of produce has every where sustained the most severe injury from the weather. The straw was of:eu so short that it was found extremely difficult in many cares to reap them. Even according to the most favourable aerounts, it is impossible to suppose that the crop in Great Britain exceeds half the average. The South of Ireland is the only district in which this crop has been in any degree productive, and the exportation from that quarter is expected to equal that of last year. The quality of the Oats is in general goal ; but the ear has not been to heavy as usual. The prospect in the case of Beans and Peas is not less discouraging. The crop of these is every whcr: considered extremely deficient. In some counties they will not pay the expenses of cultivation, the crops having been entirely ruling!. I'utatucs, in the early lint of the season, were deficient in quantity, and inferior in quality ; but the rains latterly have produced a bene ficial effect, and the general results in this article will probably in some degree falsify our gloomy anticipa tions. Two of the articles on which the price of butchers' meat most always in a great measure depend (hay and turnips) arc both very deficient crops. flay will scarcely reach half its usual average in point of quan tity. Though in good condition, the want of moisture, and its premature ripeness, have tended considerably to deterio rate its quality. This circumstance may at first induce fartne.is to sell their cattle at lower rates, especially in winter ; but it would certainly tend in the end, if not counteracted, to increase the present pricks of butchers' meat. Besides all these unfavourable circumstancas, we learn that the stock of foreign grain on hand is small, and that the importation from Ireland has been considerably less than usual. The question concerning the ekpenses of the Duke of YORK'S Palace is, in the opinion of some Honourable Gentlemen, a very different matter from that of the other Royal Palaces, yet all we have said concerning the policy of supporting the dignity of the Crown is equally appli cable to that of the Heir Apparent to the Crown. If the expense of building a Palace, or even a far greater expenses would serve to draw closer the bonds which unite the inte rests and feelings of the Royal Family with those of the peo ple, we are confident that the Catholics of Ireland themselves would come forward to defray any charge incurred in behalf of his Royal Highness. We assert once more, as we have before done, that the Royal Family has not advanced in opulence in the same degree as the higher portion of our Aristocracy. Our Ki►:gs submitted voluntarily to the ar rangement which has produced this effect, in order to pro mote the good of their people. They acted wisely in this; for by this measure they made themselves the leaders of the people, instead of continuing merely the chiefs of• their Barons, the only character which they could for merly be considered as posseining. Let "the good under standing between King and people be promoted by au increase, if possible, of protection and favour, en the one hand, and by still greater liberality a►►d gra titude on the ether. Let the Royal Family study, on the one hand, still more to convince the people that they feel their connexion with them ; and let the people prove to their Sovereigns that they are disposed to show their gratitude for the protection afforded to them. If both will do their duty in this respect—if the members of the Royal Family will identify themselves a little mote even than they have hitherto done with the people, whilst the latter show themselves rather more disposed to consider the dignity of the former as their own—little danger can then arise from the corrupt influence of riches, either to the dignity of the Throne or to the liberty of the nation. If there he any defect in our system (and all human plans must have defects), we are convinced that that defect can he remedied only by a mutual exchange of good offices be tween the KING and his people. If there be, as we are told there is, a danger of an oligarchy springing up in this country, to the detriment both of Crown and people, that danger can be prevented only by an alliance, founded on mutual benefits,. between a constitutional King, an up l i - right Aristocrary, and a generous nation. To secure that most desirable of objects, England might well build a Pa lace for the Duke of Yon K, if it were to cost millions for thousands. CITY. THURSDAY EVENING. The settlement in the British Stock Market has taken place tmday, and, as the business done during the period of the Account has not been of any very extended nature, it is understood to have passed off' without default. Such continuations as took place, but which were not numerous, were done at per cent., the interest on money not being more than 5:,1 per cent. In the course of the afternoon a man appeared upon 'Change with a hand-basket, covered will' a white napkin, wh;ch attracted some attention as to the edibles which it was supposed to contain, and which he appeared anxious to vend ; on closer inspection, however, they appeared to be lithographic prints of which he was so careful, repre senting two eminent capitalists,' Ball and Bear fashion all over, except the countenances, which bore no mean resem blance of the parties for whom they were intended. Consols remained stationary during the day, at FOI to 1; and, fur the Account, at 80! 4. It is fair to suppov, from this result, that the state of the Revenue is not of that alarming nature which some would wish it to be consi dered. It has been contended that the deficiency is, in point of fact, one million more than it really appears on the face of the account ; but even this announcement has not shaken the confidence which is reposed in the resources of the country and in the wisdom of its Government. Exchequer Bills and India Bonds have not altered in their cootations. The Foreign Market has, if possible, been more strongly excited to-day than yesterday. Colombian Bonds, which closed yesterday at 40 to 401, opened this morning at the same quotation, fell back to 381, rallied to t2i, and finally closed at 41 to 411. Such has been the fluctuation ; and now to account for it. The order for the policy of incur on 160,0001., which was opened yesterday, on specie l i from Carthagena to England, and of which sum 55,000/ was written yesterday, was not revived in the early part of the day, in consequenee of a suggested irregularity in the order, some individuals thinking that it should have been direct from Mr. Ill'itTADO to the brokers, instead of being addressed to a third party. This circumstance was advan tageously laid hold of by the speculators for -a fall, and they went down as stated. The effect, however, was of short duration, for persons generally could not be led to sup lw the irregularity, if it was one (which does not exactly THE BRITISH PRESS. appear), was of any consequence, and the advance to the highest quotation of the day tock place. At this period there was some realizing, and they giadually receded to the price at which the market e!osell ; a short time previous to which period' Mr. 111'1(1'A DO ' S sanction of the transac tion of the insurance arrie d , but, as might have been ex pected, did not prcduce any alteration in the market. The late hour at which the intelligence was received did not ad -1 • mit of many names being added to the policy, of rather to the slips, for the policy itself had not been written ; but to-morrow, no doubt, the business will preceed in its usual form to completion. In consequence of the severe anima& versions which appeared in a Morning Paper of this day, an express was sent off to Mr. .11 URTADO, at Twickenham, and lie immediately came to town, and the following letter, a copy of which has bcen banditti to us, has been tendered in answer:— Stn—(laving observed, In the leading article of the Timer kur. nal of this morning, some remark< respecting as Insurance, effected, by my orders, on dollars, from Carthage's* to London, and an in sinuation that an met-sive speculation In Colombian Bonds is going on under she sanction of my name, I deem it necessiry to , tite. in the mosf explicit and unqualified manner. that if any sreenlation has Lccn entered into, or is still going On, it is entirely without my sanction or knowledge. - \Vith respect to the other observation In the paragraph, 1 brg to state that I had nothing to with effecting the insurance, after giving the order for it, which order vas given h 1 me in eonaequence of information contained in the despatches I received from my tlovernment. We never could suppose for a moment that it was possible but that the transaction was a bona fide one, and expresses! yesterday our positive conviction that Mr. HUSTADO proceeded upon the official authority of his Government. The character of that gentleman is above the base suspicion of being a party to a fraudulent act. Not alone upon the highly-respectable character of this gettleman, however, did we rest our faith, but upon the resources of the Colombian 11 , .public, gradually recover ing from the effects which the failure of their agents hail produced. Fern the well-known anxiety of Bot.►vAtt that the Republi, should redeem its faith with this country—from the prospect of a form of Government being settled with out bloodshed—fr.-/1 the correspondence and apparent un derstanding that is keeping up between him and Pass—but, above all, from lie general state of the Reim!)lic, as re ported by those who have but lately left it—we have felt dis posed to augur a well-r„roundA confidence that the credit of Colombia would he redeemed in England. It certainly does not follow of necessity that the speck should even now be at Carthagena ; but that it will be there eventually it is impossible to doubt. Mr. Ile !trap() had only, therefore to direct a policy to he opened, in order that his Govern ment might be secured when it should he embarked. Mr. Marano could not make Roy positive assertion as to when the payment will tak.! place ; and it is contended that the line of conduct he has followed on this occasion has been less calculated to excite speculation than if he bad made any more direct communication, and which most de cidedly the circumstances of the case would not have war ranted. IVe had proceeded thus far when the following communication reached us from Mr. IIIIRTADO:- " Application having been made to the undersignedfor informa tion on the subject of the expected remittances, front his Govern ment, for the payment of the dividends. which on the 15th of July became doe on the Colombian Loan, desives to lay before the pub lic the following stdtentent of facts • Having received advices front his 4nvernment that a million of dollars were' about to be shippad a Cartliagena for the paymen' of the dividends, and Mr. Hendricks having on Saturday last called upon him at his residence at Twickenham, and requested to he allowed tc effect a part of the insurance, the undersigned, of coming to town on Monday, gave him an order to insure to the amount of 150,000/., in full confidence that Mr. flendricks would effect the same without delay. " Mast-ec JOSS HURTADO. " 33, Portland-place, Oct. 12. 12211." The circumstances under wbich the insurance has been opened is by this document put at rest, and it cannot bu' be regretted that any thing like prejudice should have been allowed to exist as to the means by which It *X33 to be ef fected. The Colombian Government has no accredited agent in this country at the pr.tscnt moment, and therefore, when the agency is in ;they:lice, it certainly is open to Mr. Hear ano, in a mere matter of accidental limines, to em ploy whom he pleases to transact it. The electing this insurance he appears to have delegated to Mr. lievnslcss• who, in the regular course of business, transmitted the order to a house of the first rank, character, and respecta. bility at Lloyd's, and who opened :the policy accordingly. The whole matter appears to be fair and 110,100i-414e be tween all parties; a•ttl we have great pleasnre in thinking that the conduct of Mr.llultTADO stands completely exone rated. All other descriptions of Transatlantic Stock, as well as Greek and Spanish, retain the quotations of yes terday. In Shares the DA Monies are still better to-day, at 40 to 20 discount, and Hrazilian at I I to 12 pm. The Colonial Market was heavy during the first part of the morning, but towards the close there was some indica tion of improvement, both as regards demand and prices. Our Ambassador at Constantinople, Mr. Stratford Can ning, has again presented a note to the Porte, respecting the indemnity demanded for the British and lonian mer chants, who suffered at the pillaging of Chin, and on other occasions. The object of this note, it is said, was to press the Sultan into a compliance with the demands of Russia. The French journalists consider that this is only a prepa ratory step on the part of England to the occupation of the Morea and the Al chipelago. as pledges for the indemnity. Extract of itter from the agent to I.leycl's at Vera Cruz, dated Aug. :—" A coasting terse: which arrie eel here on the 30th ult. from Tampico, reported that, three days previous to her departure, three Spanish frigates were at anchor ()lithe bay, but stood out to sea again the next day.

We are happy in being able to mention, on the authority of the following note from one of the relatives of the lady now in this city, that she is living, and resides in Charleston, South Carolina:— " Mr. Russell—The lady referred to jibe article you quoted on Sstuttlay from an goglish paper, as the heir to the Foothill estate, is the wife of Peter Tie:et/ant, Esq. of Charleston, South Catolina, brother of the late Judge Tresevant. She is now living in that city, and has a family of eight children. 11r. Trezevant's grandfather's family was mon; the most respectable Hugonot fatnilits which took refuge in South Csrolina, from France, imme diately after the revocation of the edict of Nantes.

JAMES'S.-It is intended to continue Pall-mall in a straight line to the Girt n Park, by pulling down the Club Houses and the Hotel at the corner of St. James's-street, the whole of Cleveland-row, the stables belonging to the Marquis .fStail'ord, the Itomcs opposite, together with Mr. Lambton's, and the houses behind it. Tht se improvements will knee an uninter rupted view of the Park and his Majesty's new Palace, and will allow a grand carriage way into the Park and to the new Palace. It is alto intended to remove Little St. James's -street, and several small houses in that neighbour hood. A gramd crescent is to be built on the ground now occupi:d by Cleveland-row and Little St. James's street. The Lincolnshire tenants of the Marquis of Bristol have presented his Lordship with a very massive silver branch candlestick, " as a standing memorial of their attachment and gratitude for his noble act of generosity in a reduction of 20 per cent. on their respective rents (to those under lease as well as others), during many years of unprece dented agricultural distress, still fur continuing that relief fine one year after their difficulties had ceased."—Hertford Journal.

Tr aK EV AND Re FS I.t.—Me•ch has been said and written on the terrible consequences which it is tuprosed would fol low the occupation of Constantinople by the Russians; these are nothing lens than tie subjugation of Asia Miner, Persia, and the P. ninsula of India. These apprehensio:s I seem to us altogether visioaary. Had Constantino ple been in the pos& s'ion of the Russians at the death of the Etoperor Alexander, the Russian empire would have teen split in two ; Constantine would base govern 41 in the east, Nicholas in the west, and such a division of territory could not fail to follow the pos session of Constantinople. Two capitals, such as Peters burgh and Constanth•eple, could not long co-exist as parts of the same empire, and neither one nor the othe could be abandoned. A new State, prohsbly two or more States, would be estsblish«l in Europe on the nil)) of the 0. tcman power; and, as these woull be in the Lands of a mote enlightened p- t pl • than the Turks can be expected to he, civilization would takc place of barbarism, and humanity heagair.er by the change. Alliances would be formed between the other Powers of Europe and the Governors of Peters burgh and Constantinople; it w o uld soon be discovered that countries so differently situated, and so differently cur ctimstanceal, had separate inn rests to attend to, and, instead of making common cause ea one nation, the two Powers would he as eLstinct as any two nations in Europe now are.

Fe made a blow at it with his scythe (which was just whetted), and raising it above his head, it appears the handle turned, and coming in contact with his innm, it sevcrtd his lital from his body. Near the same place, flea nun w: re dt ging a well, and had proceeded about thirty-live feet, when they went to the surface to take reftashmtnt, and when they were about to descend, one of the teen ob.wrved (pro phetically) that it would be strange if the ground should fall in and crush them.
