It seems that private intimation had been sent from Curroughmore to one or two Showell: of Kilmac thomas, to " get up" something in the way of a reception for the Nold,± Lord. These Minions, of coin se, as in duty bound, immediately set about the task assigned to them ; but, instead of doing any good, the only effect of their industry was to ap prizfethe people that Lord George Beresford was to he in Kilmacthomas. A reaction was immediately the consequence. The people made the best use of their time ; and when his Lordship arrived, he cer tainly met with a " reception," but one very 11:ffer ent from that %Ihich was intended to have beer produced by the private intimation. The " kettles and drums," and all the old artillery of 1826, were at once in requisition, and his Lordship vas greeted with that discordia concur, for which Kilmacthomas, on former occasions, obtained so much celebrity. Whether the Noble Lord intended to have made any stay in the town is not known, but if he did, he changed his mind. The music was vocal as well as instrumental. Some stanzas were sung with an accompaniment on the kettle, and the chorus of " Down with the Beresfurds now and for ever," was given in the best bravura style. This, with some other delicate compliments, induced his Lordship to quicken his pace, and he very speedily escaped by the western road, being literally " drummed out of the town," pursued by the good people of Kilmacthomas as long as they could keep him in sight or in hearing. This is the first attempt his Lordship has made at a " reception" since his arrival. We can only say, "go on and prosper." We have received communications from different parts of the county, and they all concur in stating that the feeling against the name of Beresford, in every direction, rages at this moment more violently titan ever. In answer to the numerous and anxious inquiries, we shall only say, for the present, that the independent interest are not slumbering, but the direct contrary, and that there is not the slightest danger of a Beresford getting in for the county. In a few days we shall have it in our power to be more explicit—in the mean time, we warn every freeholder against the stratagems of the enemy.— JVaterford Chronicle. eiticgs OF FOREIGN FUNDS THIS DAY AT ONE O'CLOCK. kustrian Bonds ..... .........

The Memoirs and Correspondence of JEF FERSON, .;ust puh'ished, will be found to exhibit that di, tinolished person in a new and very agree dile light. To those accustomed to contemplate him merely as the con ductor of state affairs, it will be a subject both of interest and surprise to know that he was possessed extensively of attainments n. t always found compatible with a life of political excitement—such as Natural History, Agricul ture, and the Fine Arts. His sentiments on the latter topic, expressed in one of the Letters, are well worthy o 7 particular recorl. " I am an enthusiast," he observes, " on the subject of the Arts ; lint it is am enthusiasm of which I am not ashamed, as its object is to improve the taste of my countrymen, to increase their reputation, to reconcile to them the respect of the world, and procure than its praise."

SECON D EDITION. ST. PETERSBURGII, OCT. 23. Great activity is observed in the department of Foreign Affairs. Count Nesscfrode is engaged al most every day with the Ambassadors, and makes his report to the Emperor, who devotes himself to public business with the greatest assiduity. The conferences of Count Nesse!rode relate to the friendly representwions which the Cabinets of France and England have made in fayour of the Porte. It is believed that the Emperor will consent, not only to a diminution of the amount of the contiihu tions, hut also to a modification respecting the occu pation of tie provinces of Turkey, and to accept, in steh of this, another guarantee. Our Cabinet de sires with great frankness to prove that the princi ples of moderation announced at the beginning of the war have not undergone any change. The destinies of Gret ce are another subject of the conferences. It is confidently believed that the r, - generation of that country will be speedily secured, and its boundaries fixed, in a satisfactory manner. The Emperor, and all the members of his family, take a lively interest in the aeeks, and desire to en sure their future prosperity. IN, 8..

(Flom the Journal des Debuts.) MADRID, NOV. S._(PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE.) The preparations for the fetes on his Majesty's marriage have been troubled by the sudden death of the young Infanta Maria Theresa Caroline, fourth daughter of the Infant Don Francis da Paula, who died on the 3d of an attack of convulsion. Major-General Don Nazario Eguia has just fallen a victim to a crime of a new species. A letter had been delivered to him by a stranger, whose appear ance was not eAlculated to excite suspicion, when lie opened the seal, an explosion like that of a mus ket took place, which, besides wounding him in se veral places, carried off several fingers of his right hand, so that'it was absolutely necessary to ampu tate the hand.

It contains a half-official article or acknowledg ment thi t Russia will relax in her demands upon Turkey, at the instance of England and Fr ncc .„ .. quence, sooner receive the tribute to be paid to him 11 the Principalities, and be thereby better able to provide for the regular payment of the in stalments to Russia. On the other hand, Russia would obtain a more important pledge for the observance of the treaties concluded with the Porte,tor the possession of the harbour of Trebisond is of great importance to the trade of the Black Sea, and the place itself is of great consequence in a mili tary view, as it can either facilitate or obstruct the communications with the Asiatic provinces, andits strength has been tried during the war ; whereas, the occupation of the principalities is of little advan idge to Russia, and may be speedily and easily effected again if the Porte should not perform its en gagements. The fate of Greece, which is now to be decided in the conferences at London, is also a subject of dis. cussion at St. Petersburgh, and there is reason to hope that the Greek nation will soon enjoy its re generation, and that the new State will obtain such an extent of territory as is necessary for its security and the development of its powers, for his Majesty the Emperor and the whole Imperial family take a warm interest in the Greeks, and nothing will be omitted on their part that can contribute to se cure the future prosperity of that people. The ac counts received from the interior of Russia respect ing the harvest are very favourable, and the summer in the west of Europe had been very unpropitious, and the harvest indifferent. It is expected that peace being restored, there will be a great exporta tion of corn from the southern provinces of the Russian empire. The temporary a bsence of his Imperial Highness the Grand Duke Constantine from Warsaw, which is caused entirely by the ill health of his consort, has been spoken of in a most - singular manner by many of the French Jouruals, and other reasons assigned for it ; but it is certain that there is not a syllable of truth in all that the French Journals think fit to say of the situation of that Prince. The following communication has been re ceived this morning from our Paris correspondent: " PARIS, NOV. 15. " In consequence of the stimulus which has lately been given to the cultivation of Indian corn in England, perhaps some of your readers may feel an interest as to its mode of manage- ment in a country where the climate is certainly more favourable to its growth. At the annua meeting of the Horticultural Society of Paris a few (lays ago, the prize founded by M. l3ossange for the best culture of this corn in the latitude of ?aris, was awarded to the Baron Louis, or rather :o his manager M. Berthier, who has been for Four years at the head of the important agricul tural establishment of Brice-sur-Marne, in the department of the Seine, and who is the son of the proprietor of the model-farm of Roville. The two acres of land for which the premium was awarded were manured in October, 1827, and were immediately sown with winter vetches mixed with rye, which produced fodder in the month of May, 1828. Turnips were then sown, the harvesting of which was not completed till the period of the first frosts. Immediately afterwards the seeds were grubbed up, the ground was harrowed, and in the month of March, 1829, it was ploughed and again harrowed. In the month of May following, the land was again highly manure(' ssith cow-dung, which was immediately ploughed in, and afterwards harrowed. A few days afterwards, when the weeds were well dried, the roller was passed over the ground. In the first days of May, 1829, the soil being completely pulverized and in a fit statc for the reception of the seed, two bushels of Indian corn were sown in straight lines, 25 inches apart. As soon as the corn was four inches above the ground, the horse-hoe was passed through the intervals. This opera tion, three times repeated, occupied only four hours each time, which was just equal to a day's labour for the three. The wages of the plouah. man and the boy who leads the horse, the hire of the animal and the use of the horse-hoe, are esti mated in this district at eight francs a day, which is something less than Gs. Bd. After the weeds and suckers were pulled out, the drills were hand-hoed by five girls, each of whom was oc cupied one day. At a later period a whole day was occupied in heaping up the earth at the foot of the plants with the horse-hoe, more streng being necessary than formerly. As soon as the fibres had completely issued from the ear, the sharp top or summit of each plant was cut off; and furnished excellent fodder, sufficient to feed six cows for fifteen days. The gathered ears were then stripped of their leaves and hung n p on poles in a place of shelter, but exposed to a current of air. As the grain is not yet sepa -1 rated from the ear the produce could not be correctly ascertained; but it is stated by Berthier, that for the last four years he has harvested from ten to fifteen septiers of Indian corn per acre, each septier being equal to twelve bushels. The cultivation of this plant is the more deserving of attention, as a baker in the Rue Richelieu has succeeded in making bread of the flour, which is so much in request that lie cannot supply the demands of the consumers. " Although the French arc confessedly far behind us in almost all mechanical contrivances, and although their agricultural implements, parti cularly in the northern departments, are abso lutely miserable, yet there are some points of theiw tuanagement which are not altogether un deserving our attentiz.n. Their waggons, for instance, although sometimes yoked with eight horses, and seldom with less than three or four, have scarcely ever more than one pair of wheels, and these wheels arc uniformly upwards of six feet in diameter, and are strictly cylindrical, with, out 4ny approach to the conical form. You will readily perceive that in each of these particulars there is a great saving of friction compared with the heavy and cumbrous vehicles employed in most parts of England. I incline to think, how ever, that the light Scotch cart, with a single horse, t i:,c;:! . : two horses, en queue, is pre ferable to either. " While on the subject of carriages, I may as 41 mention an obvious advantage possessed by the public 6acr;: the streets of Paris over the hackney-coaches in London an 4. Other great towns in England . The p ole, in place of being s t r aight, sing,:c, and of wood, as with us , is made of malleable non, soi:cetimes in two parts and sometimes in one, but always bent upwards, in the front part, iM the form of a swan's neck, so as to enable the fore-wheels to turn under it. This, I assure you, is of the greatest use in the narrdw streets dlParis, where carriages so con structed can be turned with facility on a piece of ground not broader than that occupied by the four wheels of the vehicle; and I am sure that the disadvantage of the English form of the coach-pole, must often he felt in the crowded thoroughfares of the city, since I have m)self repeatedly experienced it in streets as wide as Craven-street, Strand, and Fludyer-street, Westminster, which being cuts de sac, make turnings indispensable. " In the absence of anything like news, I may just direct your attention to an odd ques tion said by the Constitationnel to have been sent to him from the Lower Rhine. It is whe- ther the Cure of a parish is entitled to confine his flock in church as long as he pleases after the conclusion of Divine Service, in order to finder them from going to dance ? No, cer thinly, says the Constitutionnel, with his wonted gravity, M. le Cure has no such right—dancing is not forbidden ; for David danced before the Ark, and—the French Cardinals before Louis the Twelfth ! " The inhabitants of the Low Countries are, I observe, making great complaints of the negli gence of their Deputies in attending to their legislative functions. They think that because they pay them at the rate of 2001. a-year they are entitled to a more punctual attendance on their duties than is expected in England or France, where the Members of the House oi Commons and the Chamber of Deputies have so much further to travel in proceeding from their private residences to the seat of Govern ment. They say that the 430 Deputies of France, and the 658 English Members, have on an average 150 leagues to travel, and a great expence to support during the sitting of Parlia ment, while the whole of the 110 Deputies of the Netherlands may easily return home in four and twenty Lours. Another complaint is made which is not quite so reasonable, at least as re gards individuals, that the parties in their Chamber are so nicely balanced, that on any question of general interest it is impossible to arrive at a satisfactory conclusion." A correspondent informs us that during tl►e past Year the amount of duties upon beer having fallen off considerably, and the consumption continuing apparently the same, suspicion was lately excited among the officers of the Excise that adulteration must have been practised to a great extent, and steps were accordingly taken to discover the fraud. With this view several of the most vigilant Excise Officers have been on the alert for some days, and we are assured that one general surveyor has detected, within his own district, upwards of fifty publicans, on whose premises he has discovered the most dele terious compositions used for adulterating beer. From the number of active officers engaged on the look out, it is anticipated that 5130 publicans will be subjected to the heavy penalties attached to such reprehensible practices. While we enter our protest against such dis graceful practices, we cannot but think that were the duties which press so heavily on beer re- duced, there would be no inducement to re sort to these nefarious tricks. Adulteration is only another word for smuggling, and experience proves that when the duty is low, no smug gler will engage in a traffic fraught with loss. Let the Government but meet the public half way, and the increased consumption will amply repay the Revenue for mitigated duty, while the health and comfort of the people at large will be consulted and benefited withou t temptations being held out to any particular class t o endeavonr merely to live by such de moralizing pursuits as we have now occasion to reprobate. LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.) COURT OF CHANCERY. EX. PARTE DE TASTET, IN THE MATTER OF CARROLL, A BANKRUPT. Mr. PEusEwroN stated that a petition had been pre sented in this matter respecting directions upon the trial of an issue ; the order was made by Lord Eldon, but it was not obtained till after the period limited for the trial to have taken place. Under these circumstances another petition had been presented, for the substitution of a renewed order, and the present application was, that that petition might be ordered to be advanced. The LORD CHANCELLOR directed it to stand at the head of the bankrupt paper. Mr. PEMBERTON had not given notice of the application. His Loansuir observed, that it should stand as he had directed, subject to any well founded objection subse quently to be made by the opposite party. DUKE OF ST. ALBANS V. DUCHESS OF ST. ALBANS. Mr. PEMBERTON replied, and his Lordship stated that after he bad read over the documents with great attention, he should give judgment. • WRIT OF ERROR. The Loan CHANCELLOR attended in the equity de partment of the Court of Exchequer with the Loid Chief Justices of the Courts of King's Bench and Common Pleas, and the Barons of that Court, fur the purpose of deliberating upon a writ of error in Blakemore v. the Glamorganshire Canal Company, brought by the defendants, and ?lived at Lord Tenterden's house on Friday night before himself, and the Learned Judge of the Court of Common Pleas.— Jn the result they decided that the question would have to stand over till toe upxt Term for their future consideration. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT. JUDGMENT.--BROWN V. CLAXTON. The VIcE-CHANcELLon.gavejudgment this morning in this ease. The principal question in which was, whether two ladies of the name of Claxton and Bennett, the repre sentatives of a Mrs. Luther, who was the representative of Sir Humphrey Morris, were bound to account to the committee of tle plaintiff, a lunatic, for the personal estate ci f Lady Brown, after a lapse of nearly 4,0 years. Lady Brown, by her will, gave an annuity to the plaintiff for William Brown, and one question raised in the cause was, whether that annuity could be considered as charged upon the personal estate of Lady Brown. It appeared to the Court impossible to raise a serious question upon the paint Lady Brown appointed threw executors, Sir Humphrey rsior.ith ' ' Wilmot, and John Cruikshanks. By the w . 111 - 1 her liilyship's estates were given to Sir Humphrey MOrriS with gtfts over, h.nd he was appointed her residuary Fgatee. LadY Browh died in 1772. Sir Humphrey Morris and Caxton proved the wilf,'Wiltnot dyin4 with out proving. A bill was afterwards filed by some of the legatees, an 4 cti.-,er persons claiming upwards of 400,0001. Sir fruMphrey Morris put in his answer, and shortly after wards died, his executors were made parties by a bill of reviver, a reference was made 'to time Master, exceptions wqe taken to his rep - ort arbich were 'imsei ruled; and' the executors ordered to pay the legacies out of the personal estate. The Master repotted against the persons ma . king the demand fi;r •400,001. The Court declared the clear residue of the personal estate belonged to Sir Pumphrey Morris or his representatives ; the present defendants were through several links those representatives ; no elai was made before the Master, in respect of the annuity given to the plaintiff on account, as it was said, of a mis taken notion as to the will; that the Court considered might be true, but it might be equally true that arrange meats were made between the parties that such a course should not be adOpted. His Honour, after going most elaborately into the case, and citing orders made by Lord Thurlow, considered that he should be acting in a most harsh and unjust manner, if lie held the representative of Sir Humphrey Morris bound to account to the committees of the plaintiff for the residuary personal estate of Lady Brown, especially as the plaintiff, by his own act, had led the defendants to do as they had done. His Honour considered himself bound to dismiss the bill, and ordered the Committee to pay the costs. INJUNCTION.-SMALL V. DAVIS. Mr. MotcrAGu, jun. applied for an injunction to re strain the defendants from transferring 6,0001. Consols and 1,0001. Bank Annuities, standing in their names. The plaintiff was an infant, and entitled, under the will of his father, a gentleman of the name of Small, to the whole of his residuary estate, amounting to many thousand pounds. The two defendants, one a cooper, in embarrassed circum stances, and the other a bargeman, receiving ISs. a week, were appointed executors. After the death of the testator the defendants appeared all at once to be men of property, laid out considerable sums in the purchase of houses, and be ' gan to cut a figure in the world. This created suspicions as to their conduct, enquiries were made at the Bank, when it was ascertained that the cooper and bargeman had taken the liberty of selling out upwards of 5,0001. stock. The residue of the testator's funds amounted to 7,0001., and the present application was to restrain these righteous executors from transfering that sum.—lnjunction granted. Several other cases were heard, several struck out in consequence of the absence of Counsel and the parties, and his Honour rose, having gone through his paper at eleven o'clock. COURT OF KING'S BENCH. The Court was occupied all the morning in deciding special cases of no public interest. ROLLS COURT. BINGHAM V. WOODGATE. The MASTER of tne ROLLS gave judgment in this case, which came before the Court upon exceptions to the Re port of the Master. His Honour overruled the exceptions. The case possessed no point of public interest. COURT OF DELEGATES. In the case of Skeffington v. White, Dr. PIIILLIMORE appeared to pray the Court to allow the defendant, who was admonished to bring into Court the limited letters of administration of the unadtninistered effects of Thomas Ilubber►, the party in this cause deceased, granted under seal of the Prerogative Court, but which had been re voked by decree of the Court of Delegates, to have such revocation inserted on the letters of administration. The case has reference to property of considerable value, purchased by William Thompson, the late Lord Mayor of London, and Robert Fatten, Esq., situate in the parish of St. Mary Magdalen, Bermondsey. Dr. Phillimore prayed that the case may come before ti.e whole commission. The COURT was of opinion that the letters of admini stration, revoked by that Court in July, which had been ordered, must be delivered, and the Court would see its orders fulfilled. _ _ In answer to a remark by Dr. PHILLIMORE, as to his being misunderstood, Sir H. Tua.rEa, said the Court must not be contra- dieted. If the proctor for the parties did not undertake to bring in the letters of administration the party would be pronounced in contempt. After some discussion, the solicitor for the defendant was pronounced in contempt, but with the understanding that the certificavit should not issue for seven days, and that the case should be heard before the whole commission. FREE V. BURGOYNE. Dr. FREE applied to the Court for an order instructing the Registrar of the Arches Court to allow him to copy his (Dr. Free's) private papers, which had been delivered in under the title of exceptive allegations. He bad been asked 251. for having such copies, and be thought it ex tremely hard, that after having been drained of 1,2001. in the cause, he should have to pay for copying his own papers. It was as much as to say that he should not have justice, as the papers were important to his case. He hoped the indulgence would be granted. Dr. Primumoux said the Court must proceed in this case as in all others. The Registrar of the Arches Court said Dr. Free had demanded copies. This the Doctor however denied. _The COURT could make no order on the subj,ct, and Dr. FREE again loudly complained of the hardship. The Court then adjourned. COURT OF EXCHEQUER. THE KING V. VETO. Mr. PEPYS at the sitting of the Court resumed his an gument in this case. The Learned Counsel at great length, and with touch eloquence contended, that the ac cident at the Custom-house could not be attributed to Mr. Peto. If blame was attributable to any one, it must be to Mr. Laing, the architect, under whose orders Mr. Pet° acted. The Court would also consider, that in conse quence of the fire at the old Custom-house, the extraor dinary haste with which, by order of the Commis sioners, the new one was completed. 'With respect to the piles not being of sufficient length, that was a cir cumstance Mr. Peto never could be blamed for, neither would the Court suppose it was done to save him expense; because, if larger piles had been used, he would have been entitled to make an extra charge, and consequently woull have been a gainer. In short, no part of his conduct was such as to warrant the Law Offi,ers of the Crown in placing him in such distressing circumstances. Mr. Peto was at the present time a creditor for 69,0001., the balance of his contract, and t hich, before the accident, he had been adjudged entitled to by architects appointed by the Crown, but he was not only refused payment of this large sum, but had proceedings instituted against him to recover the penalty of a'bond of 33,0001., on which judg ment bad been obt lined on purely technical grounds.— He therefore had just reason to complain ; he had. not been guilty of any improper conduct—not a single act he bad committed could be be justly censured for, or made liable to the penalty. He (Mr. Pepys) therefore looked for ward with confidence for the interposition of this Court. It was true an accident happened which entailed a great public expense, and which cost 150,0001. to repair. Mr. Smirke too had also said it was owing to the bad manner in which Mr. Peto's work was performed, but this part he thought was not at all borne out by the evidence, or even if it was, lie roust still contend that Mr. Peto was not the responsible patty. The Learned Counsel concluded by again earnestly urging the Court to throw around his client its protection, by which means lie would be enabled again to vindicate to the world the upright character he had through life studied to maintain. The gi/LICITOIL-GENEN.AL said he had an objection to this motion, which be was unwilling to wake until his learned friend had concluded his opening, that time had however, now arrived. But before he stated it to the Court, it would be necessary for him to draw attention to the terms of the contract between Mr. Peto and the Com missioners, and the subsequent proceedings. The Learned Counsel then proceeded to comment on the contract, which he said was as clear and specific as any instrument of that nature which ever had been drawn. The Solicitor-General had not mentioned the nature of his objection at the time our Reporter lift the Court. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. The Court was occupied, this morning, in hearing ar gutnepts in ppecial cases of no public interest, relating entirely to dry points of law. VENICE.—There is an interest about Venice, but it is a melancholy interest one views it with a' mournful preciousness, in remembrance of what it was " in the days of other years." It is now mouldering fast into decay ; in fact, sinking into' the very waters. But the Venetians console them selves with the hope that their city is be made a free port. Of this, however, there is a doubt, as the sum demanded by the Emperor of AUSTRIA, by way of indemnity, is 70,0001. a year, and how this is to be raised it would be difficult to divine. But that hope, which always chngs to the unfortunate, still hovers round the Vene tians ; and they again dream of the golden days of com merce and the republic. As it is, nothing can je more la mentable than their condition. Their harbour, which here tofm•e was filled with vessels from every clime, now contains only a few fishing boats, and some 50 or 60 gondolas. There is but one frigate of any size at Venice, and this is filled with Austrian " cannopiers de marine." 4'llese fellows cut the most ridiculous figure possible, know, ing nothing whatever of naval tactics ; they wear long swords, which they keep drawn all day in walking the deck. ---Notes of a Rariiblfr.
