SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS The accounts from Constantinople. by the list German mail are of such a nature as might h4ve been expected from the whole course of the pte vions intelligence during the last six weeks. - 4 he Sultan, who was equally deaf to the demandsf of his enemy and to the exhortations of his mast discerning friends, while there was only an aim proaching•certainty of the overthrow of all his means of warfare, has at last, it seems, giien way to xvents, for the truth of which his Own eyes and ears were evidence that could hardly be appealed from. The Russians are - in Adrianople, with easy and unresisted access to the capital : the Asiatic army of Russia has one division on the road to Scutari, at the southern threshold of Constantinople. It is not, therefore, the Euro pean territory, or encampment, as it has been some:imes called, of the Mahometans, fiom which they are now on the point of expulsion ; but that which constitutes the life and essence of Turkey, her eastern empire, is actually over whelmed. Nor when the Grand Seignor flies across the Bosphorus, will he have a single for tress wherein to shelter his harem and his remain ing treasures, or one province over which he .can exercise a free and unmolested rule. What in• fluence this extensive and unwished-for revolu tion i., likely to exhibit upon the affairs and po litics of Christendom, it is not yet time to in quire. The first thing to be looked at is what . Ibiin the ruins of the Turkish empir e may as mine. That Egypt, under the shrewd and am bitious barbarian who occupies it, will remain much longer a blaze to the denuded and help less monarch, who, if he inhabits the Seraglio another month, must do so on sufferance, and not as lord, but tenant, becomes a matter of no unreasonable doubt. 'I he Dardanelles are seized and completely fortified, and in whose hands will then be placed the Sea of Marmora, the Bos phorus, and the entire Euxine ? We have no wish to create or to aggravate embarrassments, by comparing the chances of resistance to Russia upon the Mediterranean with what they might have been upon the Danube. Coalitions, per haps, are difficult things to form, and very often hazardous, even when, to a certain end, success ful. The Turk, also, when more formidable to an enemy than he now is, may have been but intract able, and inefficient as an ally ; but it is to be hoped that the faithful adherence of the Russian Emperor to engagements formally an nounced at the commencement of the war, and always professed during its progress, will render any question of forcible interference on time part of the Allies unnecessary at the present crisis. The mediation of their Ambassadors cannot fail to be effectual in restoring peace, if any reliance can be placed on the repeated declarations of his morierate and unambitious views. The details furnished by these German journals, and by let ters professing to be from Pera, if not in all respects authentic, are probable and interesting. It is said that Turkish commissioners had at length repaired to the head quarters of Count Diebitsch. But if the statement of the condi tions to be offered by them be correct, another proof is afforded of either extraordinary obdu racy in the Mahometan spirit, or ofan extremely literal reliance on the assurances of the Emperor Nicholas before he began the war; or finally of a belief that England and the other specta tors of this unequal combat would st e p i n , . wlthout hesitation to supply by force, what ever want of brains or want of prowess might Fe apparent in the councillors and in the troops of Turkey, when the one appears ina a paLle of reasoning, and the other un wilium fight. This, if Turkish interests only were concerned, wonitl be leaning somewhat hard upon the generosity of a neighbour. Why did not the Porte accept the Greek Treaty, and relieve the parties who signed it from the ma nacles which it imposed upon their efforts to aave, la , every timing short of war itself, the em pire of Turkey from destruction ? Itisstated in a letter from Bucharest. dated "the2lst of August, that the Russian army of reserve, amounting to 30,000 men, had passed the Balkan, and was within a - few marches of Aidos on the 18th. The knowledge of the approach of this reserve, which secured General Diebitsch's rear, had doubtless encouraged him to undertake his ra pid and. decisive movement on Selimno and Ad rianople. The two following military reports have been published at Bucharest : " On the 13th (25th) July, Colonel Govoroff, who commands in the fortress of Magara, attacked the enemy's camp on the river Osma, (whi c h f a ll s into the Danube at Nieopolia) and completely de stroyed it. " This brilliant enterprise was executed in the followinv: manner :—One hundred and sixty volun teers, under the command of Captain Askenoff, hay- . ing before day-break passed the Danube, and clam bered up time pr eipitous bank of that river, turned the enemy's camp, And without firing shot rushed headlong upon it with the bayonet. Time Tniks, 400 in number, surprised a: they were, male at first an obstinate resistance, but they were at last routed tv our hrave fellows, and obliged to save themselves by fiijht, leaving more than 100 dead on the field. Two standards and 40 prisoners are the trophies of this tkesl of arms. Vie prisoners, expecting aid from Nicopolis, erKteevuural to escape, but the attempt cost all of them, two excepted, their lives. " hi the night of the Ist (13th) Attgo,t, the gart:sou of Nicopolis was remforced from Sistov, by troo p s who had been sent over to the left bank of the Danube, in the expectation of obtaining posses- sion of Turi' by surprise. " The tirvaness and excellent dispositions of Co lonel Govoroff having rendered this enterprise abor tive, the enemy, aftkr in vain endeavouring to eurry one of the'out;sorkg, e4.4ented himself with invest-- ii Turnu.

'The last number of Blackwood'i Magazine, Jo its opening article, threatens its fAign,ds, the 0 1e1 Tories,' with a severe objurgatiOu for those many faults of theirs, - which their natural enemies never, 44. - the writer in the Magazine affirms, lay to their citsfp and as a foretaste of the intended castigation, ai*tines the Tories of having suffered others " to take tfi initiative in fifty measures in which the necessity and pinvricty were abundantly manifest," It then refers to th establishment of the Edinburgh Review, which has so many years' priority of Ow quarterly to the lately projected and coldly pursued project of Kin g ' s College, alter Mr, Brougham's Lou' don University was in full operation ; and, in fine, to the tardy appearanc e of the Family Library, when the country had been already deluged with cheap publications issued from the press of the Society for the Diffusion of Knowledge. These inqance,. arc certainly by no means ill c h o sen to mass the wide difFerence betwe e n the conduct of the two great parties - in. Ow State ; but We apprehend that. Blackwood is ex tremely mistaken when he represents such ferences in tactics to arise from any "sluggish ness" in the Tory or High Church Party.— The alertness and activity of that party, when objects conformable to their principles arc pre sented to their notice, might be . proved by re ferring to the establishment of the Constitutional Association, and to the zeal with which the So ciety for the Suppression of Vice, and other In stitutions of a like character, is maintained.— The fact is, that those measures characterized by Blackwood as manifestly proper and necessary are things for which the victims of his reproof have no relish. They are not disposed to pro mote the diffusion of knowledge, or to facilitate the education of the Poor. The free and manly spirit of inquiry, as well in. letters as politics, which the conductors of the Edinburgh Review may justly claim the merit of having dissemi nated throughout a wide range of readers, was to people of Blackwood's sort matter of deep regret, far from being a spirit which they could desire to cherish or diffuse. The progress, too, of knowledge among the labouring classes, through Mechanical institutions and cheap books, is regarded by them with no sentiment but one of alarm and discontent ; and the erection of an institution where any portion of the youth of the country might enjoy the advantage of a liberal and comprehensive scheme of education was little agreeable to those who would have learning for ever encumbered by the shackles and trammels of schoohnen and priests, and would rather seal up the fountains of knowledge than have their waters distributed by other hands than those to which the ecclesiastical constitutions of' Oxford and Cambridge have confided them. To serve his own purpose, the writer in Blackwood has represented the London University as in full operation at the epoch when the King's College was projected. In point of fact, however, although the arrangement for opening the Lon don University had been at that time com pleted, the manner in which its lecture-rooms might be filled was yet problematical ; and it was in this crisis of doubt, and in the hope, un questionably, of' crushing the London Univer sity by the establishment of a rival, patronised by both the Church and the Court, that the projectors of King's College brought forward their project. But so .soon as this hope was extin. guished by the complete success of the London University, the Subscribers to King's College became languid and careless in the prosecution of their enterprise, the real aim and design of which such superven ing coldness plainly evinced. But when, it may be demanded, have any measures of large or liberal improvement emanated from the Tories ? With whom did the reformation of the Criminal Law originate ? Not with Mr. Peel, though by him latterly prosecuted in a very commendable spirit. At whose instance were the recent Commissions for Amendment of our Judicial system, in both its branches of Law and Equity, issued ? Through whose exer tions have the vast funds destined to charitable purposes been wrung from the hands of pecula tion and misappropriation? Tories, "sluggish," indeed, to promote proper and necessary mea sures ! Have they not, in truth, been vigorous and zealous to resist every one of those " proper and necessary measures," included both in Blackwood's catalogue and our supplement ? Blackwood is an able publication, but the so phism is sufficiently bold which would represent the most obstinate and protracted opposition as a " sluggish" co-operation. It was not surely until the Tories had found all their efforts to stem the tide ineffectual, that they fell on the scheme of attempting to divert its course.— Morning Chronicle. - - - POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. On Saturday a young man namt d Anderson was charged by a baker with having stolen his do g . The defendant said that the dog was his own, and itsnatne was ' 6 Tippoo." The baker denied thin, and said the dog's nave as " Jack Scrogitins." His Lordship called out " Tippoo, Tippoo," but the dog took no notice. " Come here, Jack Scroggins," said Mr. Holder, and the dug was at his feet in a moment, amidst the laughter of the crowd. The LORD MAYOR said there was no doubt that the clog w:.5 " Jack Scroggins," and the naniere: minded him or the very just sentence of transporta tion for life just passed upon two brutes in the human form for manslaughter. He trusted that though the brutal love for prize lights %las coun tenanced and sanctioned by brutes of high rank, the determination of the Judges of the land to suppress it would ba attended with success. Mr. Holder said that the sentence passed upon the fellows alluded to, had thrown a complete damper upon the spirits of the gentlemen of the fancy. Ile ihought that if transportation were ex tended to all ihe blackguard hackers of the thieves who filled the prize-ring, society would be greatly benefit rid by the permanent departure of bullie3 and gamblers, and rascals of the basest kind. The LORD MAYOR asked the prisoner if he had any - one to speak to his character.---The prisoner had io - friend present but his wife, and was remanded. Jack Seroggins and his master went home together.

The prisoner had nothing to ,74yin his delenee,and Mr. DYER, in remandii:g him, obaervod !lint the firm 6f Se yell and Cross were more frequently plun dered by their own servants than any other house in the mtropolis. An old part, who said his name was Robinson, was rharged with being drunk and disorderly in the streets at two 0 , 0405 in the !Wiling. In his defence, he said that spuip persons gave him a few glasses of g; for singing hymns to them, Mr. DYER—Where did you sing your hymns ?

The defendant was fined ss, and in default of payment he was locked up, A yo•ani woman, named Mary Moriarty, was brought before F, BAH; the sitting Magistrate, charged with a series or outiog7 con mitted by her t the house of Mr. Rully, landlord ofM pt:blic hertv.e 0 -;;Jed the Cock, in St. Giles's The prlsoi,ew, who although rath er s h ort i n sta ture, is cf . almost gigapri,:: qreneth, w as b roug h t to the office in a hackney-coa t ch, awl so nowt , ' fill was her resistance to the constables Oat Wregniro th e strength of sib :nen united to secure her, and it was not until after a most desperate fight, in which she several times knocked down her opponents, that zhe waq at length overpowered by numbers, and her arms and legs being made fast with ropes, she was deposited, thus bound together, in the bottom of the coach, and conveyed to the office; but even thus tied up, it required two men in the coach with her to prevent her from - tearing asunder with her teeth the cords by which her arms were fastened, and in their efforts to prevent her, they themselves suffered so severely from her dental powers, that it was only by keeping their legs up on the seats of the coach that they could save those appendages from being nearly devoured ; but thus foiled in her cannibal attempts upon the constables, she bit the flesh from- her own arms in a shocking manner. When placed at the bar before the Magistrate, and unbound from her fasteninws, she presented a most appalling appear ance ; her cloths torn from her person, and hanging around her only by shreds; her hair wildly floating, about her neck, and her countenance hideously con torted with rage, while a profuse perspiration poured over it, and the streams of blood flowed down her lacerated arms from the wounds she had herself in flicted, exhibiting, on the whole, a dreadful example of 'ungovernable passion, arising chiefly from the state of comparative exhaustion into which her pre vious efforts had thrown her. She remained to lerably quiet while she stood within the bar, but even in this temporary calm, the gaolers, constables, &c. deemed it most prudent to keep a watchful eye on her movements, and stand at a respectful distance fr•otn her arm's length. Mr. Rully, who evidently laboured under no slight terror, stated that the prisoner came into his house that morning, and took her seat uninvited amongst some of his customers in the parlour, and called for something to drink, but he refused to serve her with any thing, knowing that she was" a most trouble same customer, and that it was very dangerous to have her in the house at all; but she positively re fused to quit the place until she should have some thing to drink, and on being remonstrated with by a man in the room, she turned round, and without further ceremony floored him. He (Mr. Rully) then went to attempt to put-her out, but she served him in like manner; and she also violently assaulted Mrs. Rully, who came to his aid; Green the beadle was then called to get her out of the house, " but, Lord bless your worship," said Mr. Roily, " he had. no more chance with her than I had myself," and at last it was not until six constables assisted, that she coukl be at all managed ; " and even then," said Mr. Roily, " she did not go without leaving her mark behind her, for with one slash of her arm she smashed the frame of one of the windows, and six panes ofglass into the bargain." Green, who is a very powerful man, said that in the course of his time for some years past, as beadle of St. Giles's parish, he bud had to deal H ith many violent and desperate characters, both male and .fe male, but he declared that never in his life did he meet with the prisoner's equal, or any thing to come near her; he had had several conflicts, he said, with the renowned Lady Burrymore, who was no child to play with, but her Ladyship it' her best day was a mere rush compared with the prisoner. Mr. ROB asked Mr. Hully what the value of the glass was that the prisoner had broken ? Mr. Roily replied, that the glass alone was 3s. a pane; that was 18s. Mr. Roe then said, that instead of holding the prisfmer to bail for the various assaults she had com mitted, he would order her to pay the amount of the damage, and in default would commit her for two months to hard labour in the House of Correction. Eighteen shdlings it was quite clear the-prisoner could not pay, and would not, it was equally clear, if she could; so that it became necessary to remove her at once from the bar according to. her sentence, but the question was how was this removal to be accomplished. Miss Moriarty ha:! placed herself by this time badger-fashion, with her rear buried in one of the angles of the bar, and standing completely at bay with the most mischievous determination flashing in her eye, while she kept bellowing loud enough to be heard round the neighbourhood, " What am I to pay ? what am I to pay ?" without ever meaning to wait for an answer. Gaolers, beadles, and constables looked very significantly one at the other, as much as to say, " I wish you would go first." Neither, however, for some time ventured to approach ; but all tried the soothing system, such as " My good woman, do come out.."—" You will only make your self ill," &e. ; but they might us well have spoken such gentle addresses to a she-bear, for Miss Moriarty heeded them nor, but kept on her unceas ing roar—" What am I to pay ?" Until at last a whole posse of the " civil power," as many as the space within the bar could hold, about 15, made a Simultaneous rush, and seizing Mary Moriarty at all points, once more, after a fearful struggle, bound her together neck and heels,and carried her by main force in a lump to one of the dark cages at the back of the office, where they turned her loose to reflect in gloomy solitude on the exploits she had been per forming until the horn• arrived for another forcible conveyance of her, per caravan, to the tread-mill. MARYLEBONE. On Wednesday Sir John hlilley Doyle and Jonas flail Pope, Esq., of Manchester-sqware, bad a pri vate conference with Mr. liAwuNsoN, and in conse- quence of it a warrant was granted for the eppre hension of a gentleman named John O'Brien, for. wetly a captain in the Portuguese service. A private investigation of the case was on Thursday, the Magistrate, Sir John, and Mr. Pope only were present, and nothing transpired respecting it, excepting that Mr. O'Brien was committed for re-examination at one o'clock on Saturday, under the charge of having on the 27th day of August last, by false and fraudulent pretences, endeavoured to obtain money (4f and from Jonas Hall Pope, Es q .

At one o'clock Sir J. 141: Doyle and Mr. Pope ar rived, and, after they had had some conversation with Mr. RAWLINSON, Mr. O'Brien was again brought before him. Mr. RAWLINSON told him, although he had made an improper use of Sir 3. M. Doyle's name,-' and endeavoured thereby to obtain money of Mr. Pupa, and some things asserted by him on Thursday in his defence were found to be incorrect, yet there was a great deal of truth in his statement, and Mr. Pope. had endeavoured to view the transaction in a light favourable to the defendant, and had determined not to press the charge any further. 111 r.

Under this im pression the weavers determined not to offer him any violence. Very large bodies of men, how ever, assembled in different parts of the townond annoyed the constables and other persons who were parading the streets, by loud and continued huzzas, during the whole of the night. The same night, three men, who had been appointed by Mr. Rvcroft fo watch a wheat field, near Barebones, in consequence of part of the wheat having been stolen, being alarmed by overhearing some men pass near them, fired their pieces, upon which the persons who were pass ing set up a loud cry for assistance, and imme diately a large body of men came from the com— mon. Having mustered their strength, they proceeded to the place from whence the guns had been fired, surrounded the three watchers, and disarmed them ; but, upon their begging for mercy, the men left them in possession of their arms, with the exception of one gun, which they broke across the fence. - On the following night five men, of the names of Josiah and Edgar Hyde, Joseph Ja g g er, George Stubbs, and James Ellis, were taken into custody by a munber of constables and sol diers, oh a charge of having been concerned in the above assault. We understand that the per. sons in custody give the following account of this affair :—They say that, on Wednesday night, they were attracted from their houses by the re port of fire-arms, and cries of murder, and groans were distinctly heard, as if some persons were dying. They proceeded to the spot from whence these sounds appeared to come, and they there found three tnen, who had been appointed to watch. Mr. Rycroft's wheat, whom they described as having been in a state of intoxication. They inquired what was the matter, and told them I what they had heard. One of the watchers re plied that his comrade Totn had proposed to make those noises, merely to create an alarm, for a spree. Upon that they (the men in custody) returned home, but left a considerable number of men on the spot, who remonstrated with the watchers, and appeared not to be satisfied with the account they gave, because they really thought some person had been murdered. They also heard, as they were leaving the place, some of the men whom they had left behind say to the watchers that they deserved their pieces (guns) breaking over their heads. They were continu ing their road home, when they met with a woman lying in a state of insensibility on the ground, who had fainted from apprehension for her husband's safety ; on, which they raised her up, and carried her home, and they did not know what took place afterwards, - except from rumour. The five persons charged with the assault upon the men in Mr. Itycroft's field were also set at liberty, on a pledge of appearing to answer any charge that might be preferred against them.

HADDINGTON CORN MARKET.—Sept. 11. The Barley and Oat markets contained a full supply; buyers were more numerous than usual, and sales were easily effected.

Old Wheat obtained nearly the same prices as last day on the average, which is down 4d., top up 2s. ; the New Wheat in the market was decidedly a fair sample, its only fault being rather damp—the top is 48. up —average down 4d.

The meeting was addressed by Frank Mirfield, Samuel Hoyle, Win. Richards, Patrick Flanigan, and T. Kelly. The same resolution, that has been several times come to before, viz., that they were determined not to work for a farthing less than the old list, was the only one proposed ; and the speakers severally urged the necessity of continuing to resist any reduction, and the determination to do so was manifested by all of them, as strongly as at any former meeting. Patrick Flanigan produced a list of prices, which lie said contained the reduced prices, which were very different from the list which we published in the Leeds Mercury of last Satur day ; and which, list was received from one of the manufacturem. It is impossibl e to describe the feeling of in dig,uation which manifested itself among the weavers at the sight of the list now produced ; and after Flanigan had named a few of the re ductions, the list was torn in pieces.
