Porte rejects once more in principle the mediation which was offered to it by the treaty of the Gth of July. .4 In resting upon an armistice de facto, which is in reality nothing more than a defensive attitude re vocable at plearnre,—in declaring on its side, and upon that basis the cessation of hostilities, the Greek Government would depart from the prin ciples laid down in the said treaty, and would at the same time contract an engagement which it would not be in its power to fulfil. - It is ignorant of the extent of territory guaranteed by the alliance, seeing that the protocol of the IGth November, 1528, Avhich Mr. Dawkins mentions, has never been com municated to it ; but even though that communica tion had been made to it in due season, it would deem itself to have failed in good faith and loyalty, which alone can entitle it to the confidence of the august Allied Sovereigns, by placing before their eyes the real state of affairs, it had not proved to them that it was not in its power at the end of last year, as it never will be, to transport by an act of authority, into the heart of the Peloponnestis and the adjacent islands, the miserable population of the provinces situate beyond the Isthmus of Corinth. " These provinces, as well as those of the Pelo- Po•mesus and the islands, contracted in the hour of trial and misfortune a solemn engagement never to separate their cause. These engagements are con firmed by public acts under a double sanction,—the sanction of national congresses, and the still more inviolable ones of oaths. " Can the Greek Government, whose only power is founded on these same acts, infringe them by establishing a line of separation between continental Greece and the Peloponnesus, seeing that it is to the immense sacrifices of the country that the Pe ninsula has more than once owed its salvation; and, should the Government arbitrarily assume to itself this right, would it have the means of effecting this separation without exposing to new calamities people who are just beginning to regain their habi tations, and to hope for that repose which the Morea enjoys from the protection and services of the Allied Powers ? It is not in their power, either by per. suasion or force, to obtain such a result. " The inhabitants of the provinces would answer them, that the third article of the treaty of the 6th of July, and the clause of the demarcation contained in the protocol of the 4 .22 d of March, en courage them to hope that the justice and magnani mity of the august Allies will not abandon them, and that it would be an abandonment without redemp tion to constrain them to quit the defensible posi tions which they now occupy. " They will answer, in short, that the experience of their long calamities obliges them to be unshaken in the resolution—never to quit their native soil, or the ruins which they defend with arms in their hand•, except under the influence of superior force. In the number of the positions which they have oc cupied latterly, are Vonizza, Lepanto, Missolonghi, and Anatolie°. The Mussulmans who compose the garrisons of these places, being completely left to themselves by their Government, and deprived of external resources by the blockade of their coasts, have themselves demanded to return to their own country. This retreat, far from giving occasion to bloodshed and other miseries, has been effected un der the safeguard of conventions, which demon strate the moderate and pacific views of the Greek Government, and which deserve the confidence which they inspire in the Massnimaos themselves. The letters which the commandant of the Castle of Romelia and the Pacha of Lepanto addressed to us at the time of the evacuation of these garrisons, furnish an irrefragable proof of this fact. " In this state of things, it is not impossible that the feeble garrison of Athens, end of the two or three other places included in the demarcation laid down in the protocol of the 22d of March, may fol low the eseample of the garrisons of Western Greece. " By such results the Greek Government would have contributed, as far as its feeble means allow, to the success of the negoeiations with which, in the names of the three Courts, the Plenipotentiaries of :England and France, who are going to Constanti nople, have been entrusted. " Independently of these observations, there are others which it is the duty of the Greek Govern ment to submit to the consideration of the Allied Courts on the different :irides of the protocol of the 22d of March, and especially on those which relate to the indemnity of the Envereignty. " Feeling it right to lose n 3 time in transmitting to Mr. Deakins the present note, it reserves to it self to make at a future time some observations on the points above mentioned. The Greek Govern ment entreats Mr. Dawkins to communicate this an swer to his Court, and in our own capacity we offer to hint the assurance of Out distinguished considera tion. " I (2&l) May, I 529." (From the Gazette de France, dated Monday.) :MADRID, JULY 16.:--A Spanish Mexican Com pany has just offered to the Government 175 millions of francs for the special purpose of covering the ex pellees of an expedition to Mexico, composed of 12,000 infantry and 2,000 cavalry, and a suitable train of artillery. 'ibis company consents not to receive the repayment of sums it advances, except in Mexico, from the produce of the countries recon quered, with interest at the rate of six per cent., till the payment of the principal; but the lenders will resume of right the possession of such of their pro perty as shall be recenquered, end for whic h t he Government shall not be entitled t,.7 require from them any indemnity. (Frain the Messager des Cliambres of Sund,iy.) PARIS, JULY 26.—A1l apprehension of a new war with Persia has ceased at St. Petersburgh, since the Schell of Persia has ;sent his grandson to give satisfaction to the Emperor; astd a reception worthy the splendour of his mission is preparing for that Prince at St. Petersburgh, where he t= expected to arrive in a few days. (From the Journal cla Commerce of Sunday.) PARIS, JULY 25.—The accounts received to-day frcni irlarseilles and Toulon leave no doubt that the cemmia3ion of M. de la Bretonniere is tobombard Algiers. On the 7th inst. a Dutch corvette sailed for Algiers, with orders to take on board the Consul of that nation. All the other Consuls are likewise going to leave the city, for fear of the bombardment. How ever, the Dey does not seem disposed to submit. It is pretended that there is a weak point, at which the bombardment is possible; but this opinion is not generally entertained. The Dey appears to trust for ills defence to the 1,200 pieces of cannon which I~ii9R his r.a.enparts. However this may be, when it was known at the beginning of J . wly befoe Algiers that six Algerne vessels were at sea, and had appeared on the coast of Sicily, Mr. Latreyte, who at that time had the command, despatched the Thetis frigate and a brig, with orders to sail along the Sicilian coast. The ships that remaineJ to continue the blockade were the Iphigenie,the Pro.,lerpine, and the Duchaav de -Berri frigates, and the Curieux and the .Alerte brigs. M. de la Bretonnierb must have arrived there since with the Provence of 42e line. We do not know what he will obtain by tix wjected bom bardment. It is certain, however, that hitklarto the blockade has produced only a great waste of tnc.n f v, fatigue, and useless dangers. The following letter, written from a French port, contains interesting particulars, concerning the effects of the blockade, and the situation of our sai lors Moho are prisoners:— " Seven Frenchmen, who were prisoners at Al, giers, have just been restored to liberty. " Some days after the festival of Bairam, the Dey of Algiers, on the solicitation of the Sardinian Consul, consented to set at liberty seven French prisoners, and as there were 44 of them, it was ne cessary to draw lots. One billet was made for a captain, one for an officer, and five for private sai lors. Those whom fortune favoured retnmed to France by Toulon, and the following particulars have been communicated by them. " The Fren6 prisoners at Algiers are not very LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, JULY 29, 1829. Ilis Grace the Duke of WELLINGTON, ac companied by his Excellency the Prince ESTER HAZY, the Princess ESTERHAZY, the Marquis of DOUR°, and a party of frionds, now Visiting at Walmer Castle, arrived yesterday afternoon at Dover Castle, to make his entree as Lord War don of tho Cinque Ports, and to inspect the for tifications. On his Grace's arrival at the Castle rate, the flag was hoisted and a saline fired. The dis ting4ided party were received by SAMUEL LATHAM, Es q., the Deputy Governor of the Castle, and Lieutenant-Caa;;2) GossET, the Commanding Engineer. After viewing the Governor's apartments, where the Cinque Ports Officers were introduced to the Lord Warden, the party were conducted by Colonel Cr PSSET through some of the subterranean works. They qultteA the Castle about five o'clock, under a second salute, on their return to Wahncr. The very beautiful view from the windows of the Governor's apartments excited the admiration of his Grace and distinguished friends. It has been well said by those most compe tent to form an opinion, that this is the age of discoveries. A few months since a clergyman at the Dorchester Sessions, decided that a poor man had no occasion to wear breeches, and now we have Sir CLAUDIUS STEPHEN HUNTER declaring with equal peremptoriness that he has no occasion to wear shoes. No one, it seems, under the grade of an Alderman or a Country Clergyman, had a right to such aristocratic ap pendages. They arc luxuries to be enjoyed only by the affluent. " Shoes, indeed !" said Sir CLAUDIUS yesterday at the Mansion house with an air of infinite scorn—" no, no, they (the poor) can get on very well without them." We should have no objection to see these luxuries dispensed with by the lower classes, provided the worthy Alderman, who is manifestly a wag as well as a reformer, would begin by setting the fashion himself. The in fluence of such high authority could not fail to have an immediate effect ; while as regards the picturesque—or as BURKE would term it, the " sublime and beautiful"--we could conceive no richer treat than the sight of Sir CLAUDIUS picking his way through the mud towards Guild hall, in the same style and fashion that he so eloquently recommended yesterday to the two Gloucester and Birmingham paupers. Bermuda Gazettes have been received to the 23d ult. inclusive. His Majesty's ship Druid had gone for England with a freight of two mil lions of dollars. A violent storm, accompanied by most vivid lightning, was experienced at Bermuda on the 16th, by which the Spike merchantman, lying in St. George's harbour, had her main-top-mast head shattered, and the pilot and several of the crew severely wounded. Mr. F. A. ROBINSON was also killed, by the house in which he was, being struck by the electric fluid. German Papers of the 22d instant, received this morning, contain a decree by the President of Greece, for the Convocation of the Greek National Assembly at Argos on the 25th July. The particulars possess no interest here. VIENNA, Jun- 17.—Metalliques 99i ; Bank Shares 1121. Despatches were received at the Colonial Office this morning from Vera Cruz, dated the 20th June, and from the Havannah, dated July 2. By the arrival of his Majesty's packet, Sky lark, we have received papers to the 19th June, arid private letters to the 20th. The threatened invasion from the Havannah was believed at Vera Cruz, and preparations were accordingly making by the Government to give it a good reception. The force stated was 4,000 men, escorted by two ships of the line, three frigates, and three brigs of war, which was expected to be debarked on the coast of Yutacau. But our advices from the Havannah of the 2d July, state the amount of troops at 6,000, the number mentioned in previous accounts. This expedition was to have sailed on the 7th instant, under the command of General BARRADOS. The naval force, accord ing to the Havannah account, consisted of one ship of the line, two sixty-gun frigates, two forty-four gun frigates, one sloop of twenty guns, and one of eighteen. Now, if we recollect rightly, it was declared by the Government of this country, at the time of recognising the independence of the South Ame rican States, or rather during the invasion of Spain by France, when an expedition was threatened from Cadiz against the late colonies of Spain, that if any attempt whatever were made against the South American Republics by any European power, England would stand forth in their defence. That being the case, how comes it, we ask, that an expedition is threatened against Mexico ? Though England does not wish to interfere in the internal commotions in that un settled country, yet we think she is bound by her own declaration to prevent others from interfer ing. But, perhaps, the best reason for our non interference is the certainty that the Mexicans can take care of themselves—and that the attempt of FERDINAND will utterly fail. MEXICO, JUNE 7.—The supreme Government has ap pointed to the office of Minister of the Republic to his Britannic Majesty, Sir Don Manuel Edward Gorostiss, who is at present Minister from the Republic to his Ma jesty the King of the Netheilands. It has also appointed as successor to the latter, Don Sebastian Mercado, now acting as Secretary to our legation to the United States of North America. Their appointments are generally ap proved on account of the notoriety of the services done to the nation by Senors Gorostiza and because with re spect to Senor Mercado, be was in favour, on the circum stance of his sufferings for the year 10 in the cause of independency'. The Government gives daily proof of the rectitude of its intentions, and that the country alone and its we:fare are the sole objects of its care.

THE FUNDS,--(TINS DAY.) CITY, TWELTE o' CLocr. A Mexican packet has arrived this morning by the Skylark, and brings important information in regard to the expedition fitting out at the Havannah for the invasion of Mexico. The Skylark sailed on the 20th of June from Vera Cruz, and from the Havannah the 2d of July. By her papers have been received at the North and South American Coffee-house, from the City of Mexico, of the 13th of June, and from Vera Cruz of the 19th of June. (From the Vera Cruz Paper of the 19th of June.) By the American brig _Rabat:, which arrived here last night at eleven o'clock from Cayo Hevelo, posi. , tive news has been received, that on the 25th an expedition of 4,000 troops, escorted by two ships of the line, three frigates, and three brigs, will sail for the coast of Yucatan. The Commissary-Genera has communicated this information by express to the Government, and has invited all the opulent of this city, by a Circular Letter, to contribute to the defence of the Republic, until the Government take mea sures, with subscriptions which will be repaid out of the first receipts of the Custom-house, or will be received in lieu of the payment of duties. Extract of a private letter from the Havannah, of the 2d July, received at the North and South American Coffee-house :—The expedition, compris ing one line of battle ship, two of 60 guns, two of 44 guns, and several smaller vessels, with trans ports, and six thousand troops, is to sail on the 7th instant, for the coast of Mexico.

On Wednesday last, while engaged in digging the foundation fur a house near Trinity Chapel, JOHN DANIEL, aged about 40, who was formerly a baker in Chapel-street, but having failed in business there, has for these few yetus been employed as a slay labourer, being seized with cramp in the stomach, instantly expired, leaving a destitute widow with seven children, live of whom ate totally incapable of providing far themselves.— Aberdeen Chronicle. ANGLING.—A person the other day angling with fly on the gala entangled the stretcher, or end fly, on a willow hush. While in this condition, and endea vouring to disengage it, an enormous frog made a spring from the bank at one of the droppers, which it seized and fairly gorged, to the no small amazement and annoyance of the angler, who, being no frog -eater, would much rather have been quit of such an unexpected and ugly customer. It is a well-established fact that frogs live on worms and insects, but their being taken with the artificial fly is, we believe, a thing of rare occurrence.—Edinburgh Evening Courant. ANECDOTE OF ORATOR lIENLEY.-HEN LEY was drinking in the Grecian coffee-house in company with 3 friend, when be was heard to say, " Pray, what has become of our old acquaintance, DICK SMITH ?" Friend—" I really don't know : the last time I heard of him he was at Ceylon, or some other of our West India settlements." HENLEY—" Ceylon, sir ! You have made two mistakes. Ceylon is not one of our settlements, and is in the East Indies, not in the West." Friend—" That r i en y." lIENLEv—" The more shame for you : every boy eight years old knows the truth of what 1 say." Friend—" Well, well; be it as you will. Thank God 1 know very little about these things." HENLEY— . what' you thank God for your ignorance, do you ?" Friend—" I do, sir: what then ?" HENLEY—" You have much to be thankful for."—Lives of the British Painters. A scandalous anecdote is in circulation at St. I" At the time when the congregation had the disposal of all tie public offices, a pl a c e became vacant in the town. One of the candidates for the office was supported by all the principal ladies in the place, but he could not obtain the object of his desire until be signed a deed, by which be bound himself to pay 400 francs annually to two of his patronesses. At first the debt of gratitude ap peared light, but soon he perceived that the payment of the 400 francs made a considerable deduction from his income, which amounted to only 1,200 franc,.. lie decl gyred that he would no longer pay the 400 francs, and threatened to recover what he had already paid in a court. The parties became alarmed, and a relation of one of the ladies undertook to repay all that they had received. jt was, however, necessary to ascertain exactly how much had been paid. The receipts would prove this. The re ceipts were handed over by the credulous claimant; and then, having parted with the only proof by which . he could es tablish his ease, he Wagtoldto go about his busluess. ' unfortunate, thanks to the Sardinian Consul and his lady, a native of Odessa, a woman of great merit and extraordinary benevolence. She and her hus band have done y the greatest services to our poor countrymen. They are lodged in a building which makes part of the bagnio at Algiers, but are not mixed with the criminals. The Dey's menagerie is separated from it only by a court-yard, and the roar• ings of 30 lions and tigers often disturb them in the night. The mien given them by the Dey's order consists of four small loaves, scarcely sufficient to keep them from starving, but each of them receives, besides, by the care of the Sardinian Consul, a small pay in proportion to his rank, which enables them to purchase the other necessaries of life, and provisions are cheap at Algiers. " As for the moral effect produced by our block ade on the Dey, and the inhabitants in general, it cannot be said to be very great; and certainly this means will not suffice to obtain the satisfaction re quired by France. In fact, merchantmen frequently enter and leave the port of Algiers, notwithstand ing the blockade; and if the Algerines have no',. equipped and sent out a greater number of corsairs, it is not from the difficulty of sending them to sea, but of bringing back their prizes in safety. Hitherto, the Solitaire brig is the only French vessel which they have succeeded in bringing to Algiers, and it seems certain that it got in under a neutral flag. At present there are at Salee two French ships which have long since been captured, and a third in the Balearic Islands. They dare not put to sea, for fear of being retaken. The Algerines confess, however, that while their port was blockaded by the English, it was next to impossible for the smallest boat to go out, because the men of warremained at anchor near the en trance of the port. Our ships,on the contrary are always under sail, often out of sight of the town for fear of the calms and the violent north winds, which render the blockade of little effect. It is also said at Algiers that the Sardinian and Neapolitan Con suls have been on the point of settling the diffe rences between France and the Dey, but that the English Consul has always prevented, by advising the latter not to yield. This, however, is only a report in the town, the truth of which cannot be warranted. " However, all persons who have any interest in the affairs of. the Mediterranean, sincerely pray that this miserable war may be soon ended in some way or other, and these wishes are not without reason ; ror if we were to put together all the sums which the merchants have lost, within these two years, in consequence of this war, in premiums of insurance, delays, and expences, in waiting for convoys to Ma!seines and Ga losses on the sales in conse• (pence of stopping at Ct &c., people would be surprised that the total would amount to millions."

LUNACY. Mr. TEMPLE held in his hand the petition of the committee of a gentleman against whom a commis sion of lunacy had issued. After the finding of the lunacy, the lunatic, having been well in health and conduct, was permitted for same time to go about in the neighbourhood where he lived. During this period individuals who had formerly been in the habit of supplying him with corn, &c., for his horses continued to do so. The Committee intended to have paid off the debts that had been thus contracted out of the amount allowed for his maintenance; but unfortunately a change took place in the lunatic's state of mind, which rendered it ne cessary to have him consigned to a lunatic asylum. This occasioned a considerable additional expence, and left the Committee unable to pay off the debts that had been referred to. The amount of these debts were not stated in the petition. The Com mittee and family of the lunatic were anxious that they should be paid, and the petition prayed to have it referred to the Master to enquire what debts had been thus contracted, and whether they ought, and if so, out of what fund they should be paid.— Granted.

On the VICE• CHANCELLOR taking his seat, Mr. COOPER said he was instructed to call his Honour's attention to a decree made by the Court a few days since for the sale of an estate, in which estate his (Mr. Cooper's) client had an incurnbrance of 6,0001., but yet had had no notice served on him of any intention to apply to the Court for a decree authorising a sale. Now he had no hesitation in saying, that a decree thus obtained was a fraud upon the Court; and the effect might be, a sale of the estate and the proceeds divided without his know ledge. VICE-CHANCELLOR—Your client must acquiesce in the sale, or a good title could not be made. I cannot see how he is likely to be injured. Mr. COOPER—If this decree is allowed to stand, it, at once upsets the long-established rule of the Court, and one which has been invariably acted upon, viz, the necessity of having every party in. terested before the Com t before any decree is made. I wish, therefore to ask, for my own information, and for the information of the whole bar, whether this ancient and wholesome rule, acted upon by all your Honour's predecessors, is now to be abolished. VICE-CHANCELLOR—Your client, Mr. Cooper, was not made a party to the suit. All those who were parties consented to the decree. He, there fore, not being a party, has no right to interfere; and I again repeat, that as his concurrence must be obtained before a valid sale of the estate can be effected, his interests cannot be damnified. Mr. COOPER said he mu 4 still contend that it was a novel proceeding for the Court to make a decree in the absence of parties, and one calculated to open a wide field for fraud. 111 r. KNIGHT said he could not sit still and hear an insinuation that this decree was obtained by fraud, particularly after the claim of Mr. Cooper's client had been rejected in the Master's Office. The VICE-CHANCELLOR—I shall not vary the decree. The charge of fraud has had no effect on my mind. I consider it falls to the ground. The Court was afterwards occupied in hearing a case on exceptions to the Master's report, of no public interest. COURT OF KING'S BENCH. REEVE V. STACY AND OTHERS. This was a qui tam action on the 47th Geo. 111., to recover from a coal-merchant certain penalties hich are fixed by the Act at 201. per chaldron, for selling five chaldrons of " Eden Main" coals as " Stel,vart's Walls End" coals. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL (with whom Was Mr. PATTIsON) stated the case, and called R. A. Coward, who stated that the defendants calling on him in last July for an order, he ordered five chaldrons of the best " Walls End" coals, and agreed to pay 455. per chaldron for them. They were delivered when he was not at home, and he afterwards discoed ed that they were not " Walls End," but " Eden Main ;" and in a subsequent conversation defendant said that the coals were quite as good as " Walls End," as they had been sifted. Several other witnesses were called, who proved that the coals in question were " Eden Main" coals, which were then at 395. 9d. per chaldron at the ship's side. Mr. CAMPBELL, for the defendant, contended that there was no proof of the defendants having contemplated fraud, and he apprehended that Mr. Coward had no reason to complain, as he had re ceived an article as good as " Walls End" at a lower }Nice. The Jury found for the plaintiff—Damages 1001., being 20/. on each chaldron. MESSRS. FRY AND CHAPMAN'S FAILURE.-GWILT v. SPURR AND ANOTRER. Mr. GURNEY (with whom was Mr. PLATT,) stated, that this was an action to recover the sum of 1,0241., which had been entrusted with the de fendants, who were respectable attorneys, to pay a debt and costs, which purpose had not been com pleted by them. The defendants had been employed by the plaintiff to conduct some law proceedings, in which it had been arranged with Messrs. Clutton and Co. (solicitors for the other side), that the debt and costs should be paid on Saturday the 22d of November last. On that day the plaint►ff called on the defendants at their office, and paid to Mr. Leach, one of the defendants, a cheque for the above amount to meet the demand of Messrs Clutton and Co. The defendants however received a letter on that day from Messrs. Clutton and Co. extending the period fixed for payment to the following Tues day. In consequence of which Mr. Leach did not pay the money on that day, but deposited the cheque with his bankers, Messrs. Fry and Chap man, who unfortunately stopped payment on the following Monday. Mr. Gwilt then applied to the defendants to pay the 1,0241. to Messrs. Clutton and Co., but they refused, and he was put to the in convenience of ra►s►ng the money himself, and pay ing it over again. The Learned Counsel had no doubt tl►at the Jury would think it extremely hard that .the plaintiff should lose the amount of the cheque, which he had paid to the defendants in the order of business, and for the safety of which they were clearly liable after it came into their possession. Ile then called witnesses to the payment, the refusal of Messrs. Spurr and Leach to pay the demand, and the failure of Messrs. Fry and Chapman. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL, for the defendants, observed, he would prove that Mr, Qwilt had waited for some time on the Saturday, for Mesta. Cotton to come and receive the money; that he had read the letter which they had sent, and knew that the cheque was not to be paid on that day ; and had still, with that knowledge, left the cheque with the defendants, who had made him acquainted with their mode of placing it for security ; and that he had ad' mitted having seen Mr. Leach indorse the cheque with Messrs. Fry and Chapman's name. Thus it was clear that it was placed there with his sanctioet and that he himself chose to run the risk. Lord TENTERDEN was of opinion, that if th e whole of the defence were to be taken as proved, it would not relieve the defendants from the response' lity, or the liability of paying the sum if the cheque was lost. They bad even paid it to their own De' count at the bankers. The Jury then returned a verdict for the plaintiff. Damages 1,0241. THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY). CORN EXCHANGE.

A body of men, called the Fellowship of Cu''' men, claim the exclusive right of carting goo ds for hire in the City. The Corporation exercises a eon' troll' over this fellowship, prescribes the number of carts which shall be licensed, and under the author; rity of an Act of Parliament, settl es th e a mount o f,. the fares which they shall exact. Th e nu mber o' carts allowed by the Corporation to perform the i cartage business of the City is f our h un dred and twenty. But many tradesmen of extensive busine° who formerly allowed their customers to take home their goods, or hired the town-carts for the purpose; now keep carts of their own in which they send hell° their goods, and charge their customers for the, cartak.,. This is held to be an infringement ru the privileges of the fellowship, and liable 0 punishment. Many persons have set up sprier carts, and let them for hire to convey tp o i g . of a particular descriptio n , suc h as w i ne , for wine' the common carts, without springs, are less suited. This is also held to be an infringement of the privy' leges of the fellowship, which it is computed ar e daily invaded by upwards of 4,000 v e hi c l es of th two descriptions which have come into use with i° the last fifteen years. On the part of the fellow ship, proceedings before Magistrates have in one or two instances been taken; but it has been held th at the words of the Act only gave the Corporation power over carts which were licensed.
