It may be useful to caution ourreaders against the adoption, at all events to their full extent, of the sanguine expectations indulged in by certain of our contemporaries, in consequence of the distinguished reception of the Ambassadors of England and France at Constantinople. We have been permitted to see the account given by an intelligent eye-witness, who confirms all the previous statements as to the external demon strations of satisfaction, and even of cordiality, almost amounting to a violation of established oriental etiquette, exhited on that occasion ; but the same accurate observer does not attempt to conceal his conviction that the difficulties in the way of any thing approaching to a general paci fication appear at present almost insurmountable. These difficulties are classed by the individual on whose authority we give the statement, under the heads of—the exorbitancy of the Russian pretensions; the habitual and characteristic obsti nacy of the Turks ; and a third, which has hitherto not been sufficiently taken into account—the cha racter and views of the Count Capo d'lstria, the President of Greece. On the nature and extent of the two first impediments it is unnecessary to enlarge ; but a concise account of some late pro ceedings of the President will at once show the difficulties of the position in which the Represent ativesof the Mediating Powers are placed, more especially the Ambassador of England. A Pro. dareation of Count Capo d'lstria, some time back, declared a considerable portion of the coast of Con tinental Greece to be in a state of blockade. As the ports thus laid under a nominal restriction were precisely those with which the Seven Islands maintained their most profitable inter course, commercial speculation was not to be checked by what is called a paper blockade ; and the President, finding his Proclamation ineffec tual, applied to the High Commissioner of the lonian Islands, who did not think it necess ry to interfere. Disappointed in that quart r, the Count appealed to Mr. Gordon, our now . y. accredited Ambassador to Constantinople, and thus, at the very opening of the negotiation, in troduced a new and most embarrassing obstacle, as it is perfectly well understood that the Porte firmly and consistently rejects foreign interference in its quarrels wither revolted subjects, as it uniformly calls the Greeks, At the time the account was written to which we have so often referred, it was not known what line of conduct Mr. Gordon would adopt in consequence of the remonstrance of the Greek President ; but the writer obviously leans to the pretty generally re ceived opinion, that M. Capo &Jane is at heart too much of a Russian partisan, to be wholly in fluenced by a disinterested regard for the people provisionally consigned to his superintendence in this very unfortunately timed remonstrance. — Morning Chronicle. We have copied from the Dublin Morning Register of Friday last, a Report of a Trial for Libel—Smith against the Proprietor of the Con naught Journal--in the Court of King's Bench,' Dublin, which occupied two days— Wednesday and Thursday last. The Jury gave ruinous damages, and it is intimated that the defendant intends to move for a new trial. The a ction was for three several libels. A Meeting in Galway, on the subject which has so much divided the people of Ireland, led to the libels. The defendant first animadverted on the conduct those who are good sons, good brothers, loving husbands, careful and affectionate fathers, who are honest in all their dealings, and who, before all, attend regularly, carefully, and piously to their religious duties." We do not say that this was never said before, nor that it may not have been as well said, but we believe it never was said more opportunely ; and if it has the weight which its own innate truth, and the in fluence the quarter it comes from possesses, it may do more good to Ireland than any form of words we are aware of, and deserves to be written in legible characters over the door of every cabin in the kingdom. But to cultivate the sound principle here recommended, requires something more than their mere solitary announcement, and that for a purpose. Above all, if they are ex pected to derive weight, as they are calculated to do, from the personal influence and character of the individual who utters them, it is most essen- tial to their success that every individual should be consistent with himself, and that he should not ruin to.morrow, by virulence and invective, the seeds of peace which he has sown to-day. It is cruel to trifle, as the feelings, the passions, and the prejudices of the Irish people have been trifled with. In proportion as we have warm and inflammable materials to deal with, so should we be cautious how we throw the firebrand among them. This has been done much too freely in their case ; and it will have been in vain that principles so good and so•delightful as those which we have quoted, are given utterance to, if the cup is to Le dashed from their lips by the same hand which has thus presented it to them. —Morning Herald. Ccrrect notions upon the subject of our re lation with Portugal begin universally to pre vail, and a new instance is thus afforded us to illustrate the certainty with which truth and jus tice always eventually triumph over falsehood and delusion. The writers who were wont to illuminate the columns of some of our contem poraries, have suddenly become silent, or ceased at least to depict the reigning King of Portugal as a monster in human shape, with whom all intercourse must be disgraceful, and to represent his Government as continually on the point of It is scarcely necessary to direct the attention of ourreaders to the proceedings of the parishio ners of Marylebone yesterday ; and yet we can not let slip the opportunity of expressing our sur prise, that an irresponsible body possessing the power of taxing any portion of the community' to the amount of 150,000/. per annum, or as many more thousands as it chose to extract from their pockets, should ever have been allowed to exist in this country, and more especially in the metropolis. It is one of those anomalies in a country enjoying the full freedom of discussion, which, we fear, are but too common here, but for which a foreigner, only acquainted with the theory of our Constitution, would be unable to ac count. So it is, however, that not one, but many, self-constituted bodies do exist in the metropolis— nay, in its wealthiest, if not also its most en lightened parish—which possess the power of taxing the community to any extent, and of spending their money in what manner they please ! The community had, of course, reaped the fruits of its submission and negligence ; and we are not in the least surprised that during the period from 1806 to 1828, the Marylebone select have levied from that portion of the public over which they possess dominion, a sum, as stated at the Meeting, amounting to upwards of Two and a Half Millions sterling ! The Select, in fact, deserve, in our estimation, some grati tude for their forbearance in not exacting more ; for, with such power as they are still invested, they might as well have exacted Five Millions as the sum with which they appear to have been contented,—nay, have pocketed the whole without any one being able to detect the fraud. It is high time, how ever, that the Select Vestry system should be , put an end to. There are no principles more undoubted than that those who are taxed ought to be made acquainted with the manner in which their money is expended, or that wherever unli mited and irresponsible power is lodged, unli mited negligence, waste, jobbing, aye, and per haps peculation, will be the consequence. We do not affirm that any or either of these things have happened in ivlarylebone ; but the mere possession of the power leads to suspicion, and, for the sake of all parties, we trust that the sys- tern will be put an end to, and the election of Vestrymen rendered in future as free and open as that of a Member to serve for Westminster. —Morning Advertiser. Hanover, March 24, 1329. His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge has been pleased to appoint Lieutenant-Colonel A. Cuyler to be one of his Royal Highness's Equerrys. torney. The action for seducing Mr. Ashton's daughter was tried during the sittings after Hilary Term last, and the verdict was 1001. besides costs; it was tried in the Court of Common Pleas, and was undefended. A rule nisi and a rule absolute had since been obtained by the insolvent's attorney, for a new trial, but the new trial had not been pro ceeded in. Witness produced a letter written by Mr. Corner, insolvent's attorney, dated December 2, stating that he (Mr. Corner) was instructed to make every exertion to resist the action, but to offer first to pay the costs up to that time, as well as to pay M. for the accouchement of Miss Ashton, and ss. a week to support the child. Cross-examined.—The insolvent's attorney offered witness the costs of the action, but judgment had been entered up. _ Mr. ADounius addressed the Court on behalf of the opposing creditor, and submitted that this case came within the provisions of the 49th section of the Act of Parliament in two ways—first, for having, as was proved by the verdict, seduced the daughter of Mr. Ashton ; and next, for having put Mr. Ashton to the expense of a trial at nisi Arius, after a letter, written by the insolvent's attorney, admitting the commission of the offence of seduc tion. If the insolvent were in possession of only 80/. a year, with that, and the hopes of advance ment, he ought to have behaved even with common honesty, and have married the female whom he had so much injured ; instead of which, up to the lust moment, he had refused to do any act towards re pairing the mischief he had occasioned. Mr. Commissioner BowEN said, the Court had, in the case of Marsh, laid down, that in all cases of this kind the question of damages, and the situ ation of the parties, should alone be considered. In that case the defence was similar to this—viz. that the verdict was obtained by fraud, but the Court thought they could not enter into that point. The damages there were considerable, and so was the remand. Acting upon that rule, the judgment of the Court was, that the insolvent should be re manded for a period of six months from the date of filing his petition, at the suit of William Ashton, who had recovered damages for seducing his daughter. - - - - DOR SEN- HALLE, FOUR o'cLocr.—The continued raiti' and the small amount of our arrivals, have within the fe at few days improved the Wheat market considerably; S he holders are becoming much more reserved in their offer* and, if it were possible to form any rational opinion uP ° a subject depending upon so many contingent circumstance!' we should say, that a decided rise in the price of all grain is about to t a ke pl ace .
