FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. TRENCH PAPERS. tProm the Messager (in Chambres of May 27.) JASSY, Max travellers who arrive froth tae theatre of war agree in statittg that very san guinary actions have taken tt.lace at Silistria and the environs of Shumla, whet the Turks have displayed unparalleled valour, and fought with a desperation bordering on frenzy. Their enthusiasm, say these travellers, is excited to the highest degree, and.since they hive been disciplined in the European manner, their corps of infantry have, on several occasions, performed evolutions which would do honour to the tactics of. atr experienced army, and which proves that their operations are directed by able chiefs. In the midst of these innovations, which are attended ♦with so much success, the ancient usages which may encourage the soldier are not neglected. Der vises appear at the head of the troops, and recite prayers and sing hymns, which the Turkish soldiers repeat and animate each other, and when their fana ticism is thus excited, they rush to the combat like madmen, uttering dreadful cries. 'The number of Turkish troops ineeAses daily ) alai is at least equal to that of the RussiauF. The letters from the frontiers of Moldavia of the 10th of May confirm the taking of Baldsick, 7. little fortress between Varna and Kovarna, by the Turks, and do not contradict that of Sizeboli by the troops of Hussein Pacha. Meantime the report of General Roth is expected, who hastened from Varna for the defence of the latter place, at the head of 5,000 men CONETANTINEWLE, MAY 2.—lt is firmly believed that the Russians project a landing cn the Asiatic artist of the Black Sea, arid that the taking Of S:zcholi is preparatory to this vast enterprise, for which immense preparations are making at Odessa. In consequence, the Ottoman fleet is sent to the Black Sea, to prevent this invasion, for the Divan dreads nothing so much us the appearance of a con eiderable hostile force in the vicinity of the forts on the Asiatic sides of the Bosphorus, which would not rnly spread alarm in the capital, but would greatly ttrireile the arrival of supplies for the European pro vinces. This presumed plan of the Russians is con sidered by persons experienced in military affairs, of whom there are many in Turkey, as the most inju rious thing that could happen to the Ottoman em pire, for the enemy, without running any risk, and without any of the obstacles which he meets with tin the Danube, would easily attain his object. The Russian troops which should make a descent in Asia would not have to fear any ill effects from the climate, which is very healthy ; or diseases, which are very rare; and still less want of provisions, because the country is very fertile, and, at the worst, their ships would always afford a safe retreat, or they might join the army of General Paskeswitsch; but, on the other hand, the Russian divi,ion which o;ccupies Siteboli cannot be considered as an thing Lut a rorps of observation, which a vigorous attack by the Turks would drive into the sea, and which, 7mtn the nature of the ground, which is i►:tersected 'in every direction, cannot assume offensive opera tions. At all events, the fate of this (Lvision de pends on that of the Russian squadron, which can not save it from being taken if the Ottoman fleet were victorious; or if, in conserinenee of the policy of some European states, some foreign fleet should omt to assist the Porte. The French expedition to the Morea has proved how easy it now is to em bark and send by sea considerable bodies of troops, and therefore it is feared at Constantinople that the Russians will profit by the fine season, and realize their project against Asia before the Sultan is able to ward off the blow." ritENCH FUNDS.— PARIS, M& 27.—Five per Cents. 107 f. 95c. 90e. 108 f.; Three per Cents. 791. 65c. 55c. 60c. ; Bank Stuck, 1,872 f. 50e. ; Naples Stock, S7l. ; Royal Spini4ll Loan, 78, 3 tf. ; Haytian Loan, 865f.—Es change on London, one month, 23f. 45c. ; three months, 91f. 30c.—Cours Authentique.

PREss, Gent., Coroner, on the body of a female infant, which was found the pre r, ding Fr flay buried in a field called Mr. Taylor's Piece. The Court proceeded to the church, where the body was taatnwed by Mr. Skoulding and his nn, suqeonz, of Wymondham. It was in so de t mposed a state, having been buried twenty-four days, that no evidence could be given as to the cause of its death, or whether it had ever live d. Mary Nelson deposed she was the mother of Rose Nelson ; had times and often told Rose of her being with child, but she always utterly denied it. Sh: said to Rose a day or two before the 27th, if you are in the family way endeavour to get something ready—oh ! no, Rose said, I shall never get any thing ready—stop till I want it, and then I will vet something. Rose had been out to work on April 27; came home between four and five o'clock; shortly after she was taken with a violent pain of the eye, and would go and lie down till supper was ready. Rose came down stairs between eight and nine o'clock, or thereabouts, and went abroad alone; she had been gone about a quarter of an hour when .1 went to her; I found her 'craning on the pales, sod said something more is the matter with you than common, and she answered, oh ! mother, you are always tormenting me—you filo] there is an al teration—you can't let me alone now ; she then came in with me. A few minutes after she went to bed ; I went up soon after ; she was in bed ; I did not say any thing to her, for I felt in a very poor way, though I little fore thought what the had been doing. In the morning, about five o'clock, Rose got up and went into the garden, and put nothing on but her petticoat and gown ; she was gone ten minutes or a quarter of an hour, and came to bed again ; I sa'd nothing to her, but got up as quickly as I could, and went down. After I made the fire I went out abroad, and I saw where Rose stood the night be fore ; it was a very little way from the door in the garden ; in the path by the pales I saw a great show of blood; I felt so surprised I did not know what to say or what to do; I immediately searched about the garden, and in the boll on the garden side I found a child; Igot away as fast as I could, and did not stop to see if it was alive; I did not know whether it was male or female. As soon as I got in 1 went up stairs to my husband—" Oh !" I said, " for the Lord Almighty's sake get up, if it is only for my sake, and see what that unhappy wretch has done." He got up as quick as he could. "Oh !" said he, " what has she done"—l said, "go into the garden, and look into the ditch, and there you will find the child ;" he went into the garden; I did tot look after him at all ; I never saw the child after. On the Thursday following I asked my hus band what he had done with the child ; he told me he had buried it. W. Culyer said, I live at Mattishall, and was ac quainted with Rose Nelson ; I heard she was with child by me, and came to see her some time since; I asked her if it was so ? and she said no; her mother was in the room at the time. (This the mother cor roborated.) I wished to see her alone, and went to Runhall again the Sunday fortnight after; I saw her alone, and she said I am not with child by you, nor am I with child at all. And I said if it is so you shall fare as I fare. She said you will never be brought into trouble about me, and told me that I might go home satisfied. 'The Jury consulted a short time, and returned the following verdict—" Rose Nelson guilty of secreting the birth of her child, with intent to destroy it." The Coroner informed the Jury that such a verdict implied murder, and wished to know if it was their opinion that Rose Nelson murdered the child; they meant she did, and the verdict was recorded " Wil ful Murder." The girl was instantly committed to the Castle, on the warrant of the Coroner.—Norwich Mercury.

The French Journals are chiefly filled with speculations respecting the conduct of the Turks and Russians. The Messager des Chambres, (in an article dated Constantinople, May 2,) observes, that it is firmly believed that " the Russians project a landing on the Asiatic coast of the Black Sea, and that the taking of Sizeboli is preparatory to this vast enterprise, fur which immense preparations are making at Odessa." The same Paper states the rumour is very gene ral, and widely circulated by all travellers who arrive from the theatre of war, that sanguinary battles have taken place at Silistria and the en virons of Shumla, where the Turks displayed incredible determination and ferocity. The war, it seems, is taking a fanatical turn ; the religious enthusiasm of the Mahometans has been adroitly appealed to ; " Dervises appear at the head of the troops, and recite prayers and sing hymns which the Turkish soldiers repeat, and by which they animate each other." Frankfort Papers state, on the authority of some Russian officers who have gone to Me hadia to enjoy the benefit of its mineral waters, that the plan of the operations of the Russian army is already decided upon ; that one of their main objects is, by capturing Ghiurgevo, to obtain possession of Wallachia, and then to " prepare with the greatest activity, and on. a larger scale, means to carry the war into Servia in the nett campaign, or if circum stances allow it, is the present." Another of their proposed plans, (we follow the same autho rity), is, for the " main army, which advances to Bulgaria, to take Silistria, to open an uninter rupted communication with Varna, to defeat the Turkish army which may oppose these under takings, and so weaken it by repeated at tacks, that it will not be able to keep the field, but be forced to retreat to Rumelia." We having nothing to object to these in tentions, except the difficulty of carrying them into execution. Since their total mismanage ment of the last campaign, the Russians will find it no easy task to convince people of their ability " to defeat the Turkish army, and so weaken it by repeated attacks, that it will not be able to keep the field." The reverse is full as likely to be the fact. The following are extracts : FROM THE DANUBE, MAY 15.—A letter from Mehadia, of the Ist instant, save : " Many Russian officers, whose health have suffered in the last campaign, come here to enjoy the benefit of our rnim-r,l waters. They affirm with much confidence that the following are the operations which their army will have to execute in the ensuing campaign in European Turkey:-Ist. By taking Ghiurgevo to obtain undisputed possession of Wallachia, and secure it against any incur sion of the Turks, and then to prepare with the greatest activity, and on a large scale, means to carry the war into Servia in the next campaign, or, if circumstances allow it, in the present. 2dly. To obtain possession, at any sacrifice and in the shortest time, of the fortress of New Orsowa and of the fort Elizabeth, which - belongs to it, in order, by an uninterrupted communication with the Ban not of Temesw•ar to receive, by means of the Danube, the supplies for the army, which it has hitherto been necessary to bring by land from Transylvania. idly. For the main army, which advances to Bulgaria, to take Silistria, to open an uninterrupted communication with Varna, to defeat the Turkish army which may oppose these undertakings, and so weaken it by repeated attacks, that it will not be able to keep the field, but be forced to retreat to Rumelia. 4thly. To take Shumla, and to make themselves masters of all the passes of the Balkan from Emineb on the Black Sea, to the place where you descend into the plains of Marital, by AA NSA whirl leads from 'Sophia, by way of iateman to Tatar Bazardjik, partly by the Trajan gate, partly rather more to the west, and to secure all Allege passages against the attacks of the Turks from Rutnelia. sthly. Meantime, to t Rudschuk, and while Rosegrad, Tirnova, and Plewna, are made into great military d,pots, to occupy Ni copolis and Sophia, and by means of a fortified position between these two places, to oppose all attempts of the Turks advancing from Bosnia and Servia towards Bulgaria. FP.ONTIFALS OF ITALY, MAY 13.—Acecunts (not yet confirmed) brought by captains of ships, say that Misso longbi is already in the hanris of the Greeks. The taking of the fort of Lepanto is confirmed.

VIENNA, MAY 18.—Ziletalliques, 9hi; Bank Shares, 1,111. Extract of a letter received at t;ie North and South Awerican Coffee-house from Matanzas, dated April 2 : The steam-beat has just arrived from the Havannah, and a boat is preparing to board her, to know if the Falmouth is there with the Commodore on board, who will remain until the pirates are de , troyed. They appear more nume rous than ever. Upwards of 100 of them have been taken, 20 of whom were immediately executed, and the ethers sent to Jamaica. Without pretending to foresee the result of the present campaign in the East, we may still be safe in asserting that the tardy and dilatory policy of the Russian armies gives no brilliant anticipation of glorious conquest. We believe it never was heard of iu the annals of war that any great or signal success was ever gained by a dilatory in vader. Decisive daring, and rapidity of move ment, form the very life of an invader's enter prize ; and it is manifest, from the slightest con sideration of the subject, that there is no other road to success. The great advantage of an invader generally is, that he has a well trained and disciplined army in the field ; while the country attacked may not be in such a state of preparation. But if he does not make a right use of this efficient instrument he loses his advan tage. His policy therefore is to attack; to fear nothing ; and to press onward to conquest through incessant marches and sanguinary battles. This is the:course of conquest ; and it is its necessary course. There is no royal road to victory. It is certain that in all cases the balance of physical strength is on the side of the coun try attacked ; and if time be given to orga nise those means, to train and discipline the population, the assailants must be worsted in the long run in every protracted struggle. But if, on the other hand, the country be overpowered by a bold and sudden inroad, and overrun by the hostile army. it is at once laid at the invader's feet, and falls without a struggle. It cannot be doubted then that delay is one of the most ca pital faults which the leader of an invading army can possibly Commit. Yet it would seem, as far as we can judge from appearances, that this is the very error into which the Russians have uniformly fallen. Whether this proceeds from want of enterprise and skill ; whether from a conscious deficiency of resources for car rying into eflect the conquest of Turkey, it is impossible to determine. But certain it is, that there is some cause that paralyses the rigour of the Russian attack :—it can not be concealed that the conquest of Turkey must be a most arduous enterprize. It is a country peculiarly defensible from its difficult access, and from the mountainous barrier over which the flood of invasion must be carried into the plains beneath. It abounds in strong positions, which will be most vigorously de fended ; and before the country can be con quered, many sanguinary battles must be fought ; its strong fortresses must be assaulted, and its almost impregnable defences must be forced. In short, the invading army must be carried rapidly through a series of the most desperate and destructive service, in the course of which its ranks must be seriously thinned. Now, unless an invading army has the means of renovating its strength under these losses of the field, it cannot succeed in its enterprise, it must fail in its object for want of means ; and many are the ex amples in history of such enterprises failing from that cause—the conquering army being obstructed in its career, and exhausted by a succession of dear-bought victories. Now the important question here occurs — whether Russia has the means of carrying her armies forward, and keeping up their strength through such a succession of desperate ser vice as would be necessary for the conquest of Turkey ; Ist, whether she has the means of conquering, and 2dly, whether she can bear the necessary sacrifice of men which victory will cost ; whether she can pay the fair price for victory ? If her Generals feel that they are stinted for want of means, then we need not be at any loss to account for the delay—for the want of energy which seems to hang over and paralyse the attack in its very commencement ; but in this case it is extraordinary that Russia should rashly reject all offers of peace, and appa rently count on an enterprise for which her re sources are inadequate, so far, at least, as we can judge from appearances, present as well as past. Hitherto she • has taken no advantage whatever of her entire command of the Black Sea ;—it remains to be seen whether she will correct her error in the ensuing campaign. Nothing can be more delightful than the flush of bloom which at present beautifies the orchards in the va!e of Clyde.— Glasgow Chronicle. Mr. R.

What a beautiful eulogium is this little fact ! —Lichfield Mercury. The iron-works of Scotland continue without stock, and manufacture only according to orders. Several blast furnaces have in consequence of manufacturing dis tress, been blown out. The exportation to Ireland is in creasing ; but to the English ports there is a decrease. The state of Lancashire will sufficiently account for this. The prices of iron are remarkably moderate, the very finest pig iron selling at from W. los. to 61. a ton ; and inferior qualities in proportion. The demand is at present for the finer NO5. of iron, and the furnaces, owing to the state of the atmosphere, are generally producing the best qualities. However, the result of each casting excites much anxiety among the workmen. The production of Scotland this year, is not expected to exceed 30,000 tons. --Glasgow Chronicle. 1 A quantity of curious spar has been taken cut ! of some of the large stones in the quarry at Washingbo ! rough.

THE CITY DEFAULTER.--CHARLOTTE Battoss, a poor widow who has several children and an aged father to support, came before the Magistrates of the Itlarylebone office, for advice under these circumstances,— Her husband had formerly been coachman in a gentleman's family, but was obliged, in consequence of ill health, to leave the situation, and he and his wife opened a green grocer's shop at No. 45, Upper Lisson-street, Marylebone, where by industry and frugality they maintained them selves, their family, and a very old man her faller.— Baooas died in the beginning of the present year, and after his death a sum of 1301. belonging to the old man w..s put into the hands of a stock-broker in the city (who, suddenly left this country with large sums in his possession belonging to different individuals), to he placed in the Bank of England for the benefit of the widow and her family. He gave them a certificate of having received the amount, but it now turned out that the money had never been placed iu the funds. The Magistrate regretted that he could take no measure to apprehend the broker, as he had quitted the country. LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.) • COURT OF CHANCERY. The LORD CHANCELLOR sat at Westminster to day. IN THE MiTTER OF THE HON. JERVIS JERVIS, A SUP- POSED LUNATIC. Mr. SUGDEN applied in this matter for the ap pointment of an early day for the hearing of Mr. Hartley's petition for access to the Hon. Jervis Jervis. Lord St. Vincent, the father of the sup posed lunatic, had pre,ented a petition to the Lord Chancellor, stating the incompetency of the Hon. Jervis Jervis to manage his own affairs. Mr. Hart ley had been employed as the solicitor of the sup posed lunatic, whose mind was well known to be not one of the strongest, but perfectly capable of managing his own tran'actions. All that was asked by the petition of Mr. Hartley, was liberty of access to the supposed lunatic-, in order to enable him to answer the charges contained in the petitioa of Lord St. Vincent. His LORDSHIP appointed Thursday next for the heating of the petition. ROPER V. PHILLIPS. After some considerable discussion in this case, the facts of which, on a previous occasion, we fully detailed, The LORD CHANCELLOR ordered the commission to be superseded, the property in the hands of Phil lips to be deliveredup, and reserved the consideration of costs. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT. CONTEMPT OF COI:RT.-CHAPLIN I`. BURNES. Mr. STEWART said he was instructed to move for the committal of the defendant (an old lady), for not putting in an answer to a hill filed against her by the plaintiff. The Vtett-CHANcELLoti inquired if the defendant was in Court, and, on being answered in the affirm ative, he desired the officer to bring her forward. In a few minuteg an old wretched looking ‘vo min of more than eighty years of age made her ap pearance. VICE-CHANCELLOR—IS it against this poor old creature you move, Mr. Stewart; what are the facts ? Mr. STEWART—The defendant is the surviving executrix of a person who bequeathed to the plain tiff upon her attaining the age of twenty•one, the sum of 1001.; but upon application being made to have the fund transferred (the money being in the defendant's name), she positively refuses! so to do. It was, therefore, neees.,;ary to file a bill against her for that purpose. VICE. CHANCELLOR, to the defendant—On what ground do you refuse to put in your answer ? Defendant—Lord bless you, Sir, I know nothing at all about it. Ido not know what this is all for. A fete ,le who attended the defendant stated, in answer to questions from the Court, that the de fendant kept a little fruit-stall, and was in the most. abject state of poverty, that she had not the least idea of the consequence of her refusal which she persisted in, always alleging as a reason that the lOC/. ougLt to have been divided between two per sons, and not all given to one, and that she was now in her 8-Ith year. The VICE-CHANCELLOrt here held a lung conver sation with the defendant, and advised her to trans fer the 1001. stock into the name of a person ap pointed by the Court, but the old woman was deaf to all a:Nice, and he therefore made the order for her committal. We understand the old woman afterwards agreed to transfer the fund. The Court afterwards disposed of a great uutnber of motions by consent. COURT OF KING'S BENCH. Lord TENTERPEN sat this morning at GUildliall for the disposal of undefended causes, and the Puisne Judges sat in Banco at Westminster. THE KING V. PATTERSON. Mr. CAMPBELL moved fur a rule nisi to obtain a writ in the nature of a quo warranto, calling upon the defendant to prove by what right he held the office of Alderman of the city of Norwich. The Learned Counsel stated that the defendant had been Mayor, and had been appointed treasurer by his brother Aldermen, who were alone authorized to ap point officers with salaries, and to whom alone those officers were responsible, and be contended that the two offices were incompatibh, as the trea surer would account to the Aldermen, of which body he was a member.—Rule granted. Mr. CAMPBELL also obtained a similar rule agr.inst another Alderman of the same city, for holding an other office with a salary. THE KING V. CUTTO AND BERRY. Mr. F. Vitwasts applied for a rule to show cause why an attorney of this Court should not be struck off the Rolls, for permitting the other de fendant to make an improper use of his name. — Rule grunted. COURT OF EXCHEQUER. CHAMBERS V. FAREBROTHER AND OTHERS. 11:is was an action tried before the Lord aief Baron, and has been frequently before the public. On a former day a rule was obtained for a new Mr. F. I'OLLOCK this day moved - to make the rule absolute. The COURT, after hearing a long argument, ordered the rule to be enlarged until such time as another act i on between thestune parties in the King's Bench. and which involves a similar point of law, was decided. The LORD CHIEF BARON, at twelve o'clock, sat at Nisi Prins in the Exchequer Chamber, for the trial of undefended causes. ZHE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY) COVENT-GARDEN MARKET.
