FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. FRENCH PAPERS. ( From the Messager des Chambres of July 27.) (FROM A PRIVATE LETTER. CONSTANTINOPLE, JUNE 28.—A general subject of conversation in the suburb of Pera is the very ex traordinary honour with which the new British Mi nister (Sir Robert Gordon) is received by the Go vernment. Undoubtedly Count Guilleminot has not been seen with less satisfaction; but he has been received and treated like an old friend whose up righ'ness is well known, and who is esteemed for his private character, though there may be some dis• trust respecting the intentions of the Ministers who send him. Whereas the successor of Mr. Strat ford Canning is a new friend who must he gained, and who comes with claims to the favourable opinion of the Turkish Government, for he has already en deavoured to repress, in the name of his Govern ment, the pretensions of the new Greek States. This partiality for the English Ambassador was observed the very day after his landing. (From the Gazette d? France, July 28.) We find in a journal the following paragraph : " Mahmoud, it i 3 said, has rejected the protocol of the 22d of March, as he had rejected all the other propfmils made to him." The object of the convention of the 6th of July was to prevent a rupture between Russia and Turkey ; that of the protocol of the 22,1 of March is to effect an arrangement between England, France, and the Porte. The protocol will not obtain its object any better than the contention of the 6th of July did. Meantime the English Cabinet places no great dependence on the new negotiations to re. establish the. peace of the East. It appeays to be preparing for other events : its naval force assumes an imposing attitude in the Mediterranet►n. Already six ships of the line are in the roads of Smyrna, there are two others at Malta, two at Corfu, and it is affirmed that by the beginning of April there would be 18 assembled in those seas. It may be supposed that this considerable armament is not collected to make the Sultan listen to reason. Undoubtedly the Cabinet of London will do every thing not to break the peace; hut if Constantinople were threatened, it is to be presumed that its fleet would not remain a mere spectator of the rapture of that city. (From thP., Message). dYs Chambres of July 27.) SECOND EDITION. some of the morning papers announce, under the form of an on (lit, that the Porte has already rejvcted the protocol of the 22d of March, relative to the affairs of Greece. This news appears to us to he destitute of probability. How can it be imagined that the Porte can have taken such a resolution be fore the Ambassadors who have arrived at Con stantinople hare had their solemn audience, which had not taken place at the date of the last letters from that capital ?

SPANISH EXPEDITION AGAINST MEXICO PROCLAMATION. " INHABITANTS OF NEW SPAIN !—A long arid painful experience ought to have convinced you that the hallucinations which, under the colour of liberty end independence, seduced the most incautious among you, possessed no other object than to sa tiate the ambition of those who dictated them, and give a free rein to every description of excess, with out caring for the lamentable fare which must fall upon the unhappy country wherein they had birth. The ancient and sacred ties which united you with the mother country were broken by wickedness and treason ; and eight years are about to close, during which not a single moment have you en joyed of that inestimable tranquillity and blessed abundance which formed your happiness for three centuries. At times subject to the rule of a fantastic empire, at others in the midst of anarchy, by you called freedOm, never have you known other than disturbances, rumours, per secutions, and general misery. For the venerable customs taught you by your fathers, being displaced by the new order of things, caused von, in the ge neral perturbation between the two, to attempt ac quiring the name of philosophers, but you were dashed against the awful rocks of immorality and ir religion. Wherever one may cast an eye upon your country, distinguished by nature with so maNysignal favour., nothing is to be seen but the mournful ef fects of that frightful destruction, which perfidy on one part, and imprudence on the other, introduced through all parts of the social edifice. Hierarchies and ranks have been confounded; the Ministers of the Altar abused; the divine worship of the Re deemer of the human race forgotten, and perhaps scoffed at; and in their place secret associations have been authorised and protected, in whose black and heretical synod nothing but sin has been plotted. Your roads, and towns, and cities, waylaid by out laws —your filthy population left disordered and frantic—and to induce whom to enter into the ephe meral plans which every day arose from your sense less Governors, you have been allowed to accustom yourselves to sack, pillage, assassinate, and practise every irregularity. What exists now of that pacific country, model of Christianity, and worthy imitation of European Spain in the practice of all virtues ? " Amid so many misfortunes, aad when a terrific catr'strophe was about to crown, without doubt, the work of iniquity, a Spanish army presents itself upon your shores, more desirous to reconcile your minds, and re-establish order, than to gather laurels in the field of honour. The august Monarch who sent them is your Monarch also ; whatever may have been the changes posterior to the month of September 1821, in which a crowd of insubordinate soldiers, availing themselves of peculiar circumstances, dared to proclaim rebellion in the name of independence, never has his Majesty loosed the incontestible right inherited from his progenitors —never has the grandson of Ferdinand and Isabella ceased to he the legitimate Sovereign of the country of New Spain, which those renowned Kings and their successors discovered and conquered ; which the Crown of Spain by constancy and every description of sacri fice, illumined with the sacred torch of the Holy Evangelists; and to which you owe your civiliza- ' tion, the arts, and whatever may distinguish you from the savages who yet occupy parts of the interior of your country. " It is your brothers who go to suffocate the in famous monster of anarchy, and to restore you all the blessings which your fathers and you yourselves have enjoyed during the long series of 300 years ; we are one people; our religion , our language, an d our customs are the same. Far be from us all idea of rancour and feeling of vengeance for past griev ances—there shall be an entire oblivion of the past, without exception of persons, ranks, or circum stances; and it shall be the fundamental basis of all the operations of the army to continue in their stations or employments, whether civil, military, or ecclesiastical, all those who may obey the voice of their Sovereign, and also to award them such re compenses and remunerations as they may become entitled to by contributing to the noble object we propose. " In the Royal name of his Majesty Ferdinand VII., and complying with his Sovereign orders, I offer to you, Mexicans, and repeat, that a thick veil shall be thrown over the occurrences of the past eight years, and no one in any manner be persecuted or molested, whatever may nave been his political opinions and conduct during that unfortunate period; this being expressly the wish of his Majesty, who from his Royal '1 nrone has looked with eyes of compassion upon the misfortunes and calamities of his beloved sons of New Spain. Only a peremp tory necessity will obli ge t h e army to employ force against those who may dare to disregard t h e i r n tranquillity th e i r duties; all others shall enjoy i property; their persons shall be respected, mutual confidence renewed, and fraternal love unite with holy ties the Spaniards of both hemispheres; then, ha a moment, will cease for ever all painful dif ferences, and we shall return to be members of one family. " And, in order to arrive at this desirable pacifi cation, his Majesty has ordered immediately to be sent from hence a respectable division of men, under the orders of Brigadier-General Don Isidoro Barra dam, to which will be afterwards united the rest of the troops having to compose the grand army, and to which his Majesty confides the re-establishment of his paternal government in all the Provinces of New Spain. And it affords me the greatest satis faction to he able to announce to you, that the Chief who commands the division, and the loyal and va liant officers and soldiers of which it consists, are a model of discipline and moderation ; and that their proceedings will in all respects be analogous to peace, absolute forgetfulness of the past, and with that fra ernity which animates our generous and august Sovereign, and all his vassals, towards their brothers of New Spain.

By the bench mail, received this morning, accounts from Gibraltar of the 9th July state, with a great air of probability, that the Lieut.- Governor of that place had made some oppo sition to the blockade of certain ports of Mo rocco by the Austrian squadron, on the ground of the commerce of Gibraltar be ing reduced to the greatest extremity ; in consequence of which most of the English and French merchants had gone to Cadiz. The Governor acted wisely. If the Austrians are allowed to blockade at the western extremity of the Mediterranean, the Russians in the East, and the Greeks in the middle, where is English commerce to seek for a market in that Sea ? Really this capricious system of blockade from the Emperor NlcHot,As to the Usurper MI GUEL downwards, is assuming a very disgraceful character, and must be put an end to,—and that speedily. If we recognise such blockades, the Navy of England has come to a pretty pass, indeed. The private accounts from the Havannah, of the 2d of July, inform us that the Province of Yucatan had sent a deputation to FERDINAND, soliciting his assistance to free them from the yoke of the Mexicans, and they would join the Spanish forces, on their landing, with three or four thousand men. It was reported at the I-lavannah that two Expeditions would sail for the coast of Mexico, one to Yucatan, to bring do►vn the Mexican forces to that Province, while another division would land on some other part. The people at the Havannah are much dissatisfied, being drained of their money to fit out the Expedition. We have received the Prussian States Ga zette of the 24th ; German Papers of the 23d ; and Brussels Papers of the 29th inst., from which we make the following extracts : ST. PETERSBURGH, JULY s.—The day before yester day the birth-day of her Majesty the Empress was cele brated as usual by divine service, and with every demon stration of public respect and attachment. The general pleasure was greatly heightened by the arrival of the news of the taking of Silistria. At the same time, with this welcome intelligence, news arrived from Tiflis of a new victory gained on the 14th ult. by the united detachments of Major-Generals Murawico and Burzow, over large bodies of Turks, who had assembled in the defile of Portov. The enemy lost their rich camp, which was taken by storm, a large quantity of ammunition and provi sions, four hundred prisoners, five standards, and all their artillery. The Turks, whose force amounted to 15,000 men, lost 1,200 in killed and wounded. Our loss is small. The details of this action are not known. Count Paskewitseh was still at Kars, but was preparing to attack the Seraskier himself, who with an army of 50,000 men, is about 60 wersts (40 miles) from that fortress. His Highness Chosrew Mirza, Prince of Persia, arrived on the 10th June, at midnight, in the fortress of Wladi kawkask, accompanied by a numerous suite, by Major- General Rennenkamf, of the suite of his Imperial Majesty, and other Russian officers. A guard of honour was sent to meet him twelve %vents from the fortress. Without the gates he was received by Major-General Skworzow, the Governor, and other officers, who accompanied his Highness to the residence prepared for him, before which a guard of honour was ready to receive him with military honour s, as he alighted from his carriage. The next morning the Prince took advantage of the fine weather to walk in the garden of the fortress, and to view from the surrounding hills the picturesque scenery of the country. On the 12th, being the Persian festival of the Couram Beiram, the Prince received the compliments of his suite and of the Russian Generals and Officers. While his Highness staid there the band of the regiment played every evening under his window. On the 14th he proceeded on his journey to St. Petershurgh, after thanking the Governor in the must flattering terms for the hospitable reception he had met with. HERMANSTADT, JULY 9.—General Geismar is forming moveable columns, with which he intends to act on the right bank of the Danube. The Paella of Nicopolis is said to be much alarmed at this, and the fall of Silistria is not calculated to encourage the Turkish garrions. It is said that the heavy artillery found in Itachova is to be employed in the defence of that place, but that heavy ar. tillery is expected from the principalities, which is to be embarked on the Danube, and employed against Nicopolis. Congreve rockets of a new kind are to he sent to Gruen! Geismar. Since the energetic measures of the Govern ment the sanitary state of the Principalities has began to improve. Some villages where the epidemic disorder was peculiarly violent are to be burnt by order of the Divan, and an indemnity given to those who will be sufferers by the measure. VIENNA, JULY 18.--31etliliqUeS, 991; Bank Shares 121 1122. VIENNA, JULY 18.—A report has been spread on Change to day, that the Prussian General Baron Mulling . is sent to Constantinople on an extraordinary mission. This being considered as an indication of the intervention of Prussia to bring about peace, as a proof of the una nimity of the powers, and of the wish of Russia to put an end to the war, the funds have risen. We have no news from the theatre of war since the fall of Silistria. Count Diebitsch arrived before Silistria on the 29th, and took several measures which hastened the fall of the place. The corps of Count Pahlen was then before Shun:la, but was preparing to march towards Burgos, and was to be re inforced by 10,000 men, under General Krassowsky, who leaves a garrison of 5,000 men in Silistria. The fine weather is favorable to negotiation, and accounts from all parts of the monarchy respecting the harvest are favourable, so that we hope that the partial damage done by too much inun dation will be lounterbalanced by the general prosperity. BRUSSELS, JULY 28.—The Nassau brings news from Batavia to 4th April, which announce that hostilities remain suspended : this repose was very advantageous to our troops. The chiefs of the insurgents had not yet po sitively declared upon what conditions they would submit, under the pretence that during the whole month that the Afahometan fast continues, no negociations could be car ried on. This hindrance would cease the 6th April, and it would then be seen whether Diepo Negoro was seriously disposed to submit. Two brothers of Changko Diningrat have joined our troops, and Ali Basra Prawiro Dirdjo, a principal chief of the rebels, has asked a personal interview with Lieutenant- General De Kock, adding, that Diepo Negoro had absolutely refused the intervention of Kiaja M aljo, because it was owing to that the negociations in 1827 had failed. Tita HAGUE, JULY 26.—The King set out this after noon for Amsterdam, and is expected to return about the end of the week. Her imperial Highness the Grand Duchess Helen of Russia is expected here on the 30th, with her suite, consisting of 36 persons. It is said that Lady Morgan is going to publish a new work in this city. Her Ladyship has certainly paid a visit to Mr. H. Tayhir, one of our principal publishers. We continue to receive afflicting accounts of the damage done by the late tempests. The Benchers of the Inner Temple are aho to submit to a public examination in the Greek language, in order to chew that they both were and are qualified for their high station, agreeably to the proposed new regulations ; they also in tend to establish by evidence (upon oath), that they were possessed of the same' amount of pro perty as is to form the new qualification of a candidate for the Bar, viz., 4001. per annum (being only one-third more than the qualifica- tion for a Member of Parliament !) when they severally became members of that learned So ciety, the high feeling of the Bench not per mitting them to make regulations to bar the ad vancement of others, which, had they formerly existed, would have been a bar to their own. By an additional new regulation the Worthy and lion. the Benchers of the timer Temple, in addition to their other honours, are henceforth, by way of pre-eminence, to be distinguished by the honourable and characteristic appellation of The Greeks." At a late hour this morning we received the Prussian State Gazette of the 25th inst. This Gazette contains the Convention concluded be tween the kingdom of Prussia and the Grand Duchy of Hesse on one part, and the kingdoms of Bavaria and Wurtemburg on the other, rela- tive to the trade and intercourse between their respective subjects. This Convention, which fills six columns of the Gazette, is divided into 19 articles, dated Berlin, May 27 : KONIGSBURG, JULY 19 —Yesterday evening her Ma jesty the Empress of Russia, arrived here on her return to St. Petersburgh. Her Majesty had declined a formal reception, but the inhabitants as the weather was very fine, went a great distance out of the gates to receive her. She was accompanied by her brother the Crown Prince of Prussia. Her Majesty and the Prince left us again this morning early, and will reach Memel this evening. RETERSBURGII, JULY 14.—The new Austrian Ambas sador to our Court, Count Figuelmont, arrived here on the 12th. Count Suchtelen, Quartermaster• General of the Staff of the army, has also arrived here. The Journals contain detailed accounts of his Majesty's tour in Poland. He had repeatedly expressed his satisfac tion to the Grand Duke Constantine, in consequence of the admirable order which he found in all the branches of the Administration, under his Imperial Highness's di rection. At Tulczyn, where his Majesty arrived on the Ist inst. he was particularly pleased with the excellent condition in which he found the Regiments of the Guards cantoned in that town and its vicinity. THE HAGUE, JULY 28.—His Royal Highness Prince Ihert of Prussia has arrived at Brussels. By the Katherine Stewart Forbes, we have Bombay Gazettes to the 22d February, on which day the vessel sailed; but they contain no news of a political interest. The following are a few extracts : Yesterday morning at about a quarter past nine, a fire broke out at Kamattee-poora (about three miles from the Fort, on the Bycullah-road), and consumed nearly 400 small houses in the course of one hour. Two children and an old woman lost their lives in the conflagration. The Katherine Stewart Forbes, Captain Chapman, sails for England to-morrow morning, carrying as passen gers :--Lady Chambers and three children, Colonel and Mrs. J. Morse, Mrs. Morgan, Miss Williams, Dr. Wil liams, Captain and Mrs. Vaughan and child, Captain Wil son, Bengal Artillery, Captain Baillie, Lieutenant Richards, John Gilder, Esq., Dr. Armstrong, Lieutenant Knox, Madras Cavalry, Mr. Ketterer. We are surprised that the frequent occurrenc e of these fires in the little villages without the Town Walls has not long since suggested to the authorities, to whom such matters may be committed, the necessity of ad opt i ng some scheme for their future prevention. Surely an arrange ment might be made by which builders of h uts could be compelled to erect them either singly, or in small rows at considerable distances from one another, thus confining the fire to the hut, or the row of huts, in which it may break out. The latest papers from Calcutta represent Lord Wm. Bentinck's state of health as improving. Lady W. Ben tinck had left to meet him. By way of Havre, letters this morning have been received from Buenos Ayres, of a date four clays later than the last advices. The city was perfectly tranquil, and no apprehensions of the Monteneros getting in existed. RIVADAVIA and AGUERO have both arrived at Havre. By the returns published this morning it ap pears there is a fuither advance in the duty on Foreign Wheat, which is now as high as IBs. 8(1. per quarter. The aggregate average for the six weeks, by which this is regulated, was 675. Bd. per quarter. Singapore Papers to the 13th of February have been received :—A conspiracy had been detected at Manilla on the 26th of the preceding month, having for its object to destroy the Go- vernor, Admiral, and Chief Europeans, but its extent was very imperfectly known. The Government had received information that the suburbs would be set on fire a few nights before, and the troops were held in readiness. As was expected, a fire broke out near the Custom-house, but by dint of great exertion it was confined to a few houses. Some men are said to have been detected with firebrands in their hands, and numerous arrests had taken place. By the census taken at Singapore for the year 1828, it appears that the population had considerably increased, it being 17,664, an in crease of 2779 over the preceding year. We have Letters and Papers from the Cape of Good Hope to the 113th May. Distillation from grain had commenced there ; and the sub scription to the College was opened, and at tracted considerable patronage. The manufac ture of coarse hats was spreading rapidly, and some fine hats were also made of the otter and other furs. The supply of suitable wool for coarse hats was annually becoming more abun dant. The following are the prices of grain at the Cape :—Barley, per maund, 5 Rds. ; Oats, 41 to 5 ; Wheat, per 10 maunds, 121 to 150 : Maize, per maund, 5 to 6 ; Rye, per maund, 4 to G ; fine Flour, per lb., 12 to 13. The Ausburg Gazette says that the GRAND VIZIER had no authority to give an answer to the propositions sent by General DIEBITSCH who sent the despatches to Constantinople, and that REDSCIIID PACIIA is much disposed for Peace ; and the great influence he has with the SULTAN is such, that every hope is entertained that terms will be accepted, to prevent the fur ther effusion of blood. The report of two divisions of Russians hav ing passed the BalkaM might have been magni fied from the following circumstance :—lt was reported at Constantinople by the last accounts, that the Russian scouts were seen in the envi rons of Carnabat, in the Balkan, and in the valley of Deglis-Beressi. Extracts from the Paris Papers will be found in another column. The Messager des Chambres contradicts or doubts the report " that the SULTAN has rejected the Protocol of the 22d of March, as he had rejected all the other proposals made to him"—and we are inclined to agree with the Messager that the Porte could not have taken such a resolution before the Ambassadors who have arrived at Con stantinople have had their solemn audience, which had not taken place at the date of the last letters from that capital. The Marquis of CHANDOS, accompanied by a deputation of West India Planters, had a long conference with Sir GEORGE MURRAY this morning at the Colonial Office. The usual despatches from Paris and the Netherlands were received at the Foreign Office this morning. LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.) COURT OF CHANCERY. JUDGMENT.-WILFORD V. BULKELEY. His LORDSHIP disposed of this case. General Wilford employed the defendant, his heir-at-law, and a solicitor, to levy a fine for him in respect of certain lands, the General having previously, by will, devised those hinds to his widow. The fine was levied, and by its operation it revoked the will as far as affected the lands. It did not appear that Mr. Bulkeley knew the General had made a will. Other solicitors had been employed to assist him in the making of it. The General died in a month after the fine was levied, without having republished his will, or made a new one; and very shortly afterwards the defendant claimed the lands as heir at-law, alleging that the testator had died in testate as regarded them. He took possession ac cordingly of the estates in 1822. The widow filed a bill, calling on the defendant to re-convey and to account. The cause came on for bearing before the Vice-Chancellor, then Sir J. Leach. He directed two issues to be tried at law; the first was, whether the defendant had fraudulently induced the General to extend the fine beyond the property sold to the Commissioners of Chelsea Hospital ; and the second, whether the defendant had fraudulently omitted to inform the General that the fine revoked his will as to the lands (part of the Ranelagh estate at Chelsea) therein confirmed ? Upon the trial the Jury found for the defendant on the first issue,but on the second they found for the plaintiff. An application was made by the defendant for a new trial; this was refused, and the present judgment upon the case was upon the discussion upon further directions. The Court was of opinion that it was the duty of the defendant to have informed the General of the effect of the fine upon any will he might have made, and that the Jury had found their verdicts rightly on the evidence before them. That under these circumstances 51r. Rulkeley could not be per mitted to retain the estate he had thus fraudulently become possessed of. That therefore he should be decreed to reconvey the estate, to give up posses- ' sion, to account for the rents and profits he had re ceived, pay the costs of the proceedinge in this Court, and so much of those at common law as by the findings of the Jury had been against him. TfIE A PPLICATION TO COMMIT EARL ROSCOMMON, &c. TO THE FLEET. WALKER V. STRICKLAND. Mr. KNIGHT stated that he appeared for a Miss Booth, who was one of the parties ordered to ap strained from communicating or having any inter. course whatever with that young lady. Miss Booth was a most respectable young lady, engaged in ho nourably gaining her livelihood by keeping a school, in conjunction with her mother, at which the ward was. She had made an affidavit, which was also sworn to by her father and sister, denying, in the most express terms, that she had done so. The statement originally was only made on information and belief, and could have for its object nothing but the ruin of this young lady. Sir CHARLES WETHERELL bad understood that this was to be heard in private. Mr. KNIGHT was instructed, on the part of hip client, obstinately to object to its being► heard in private. She had been calumniated in public, and demanded to exculpate herself as openly. Sir CHARLES WETHERELL had seen her affidavit, and was now perfectly satisfied that the charge against her had been made in mistake, and was will ing that she should have her costs of appealing to be paid by those who had made the allegation. The LORD CHANCELLOR thought this young lady had done right in insisting on being heard in public, that her justification might get a circulation as widely as the charge against her had got. She stood perfectly acquitted in the eye of the Court, from which she was at liberty comfortably to walk away. Miss Booth, then in company with her mamma, sister, papa, and brother, marched off, all apparently as sa tisfied with themselves (and who seemed to be highly respectable, and attired most fashionably) as Miss B.'s Counsel was with the appearance and conduct of his client. Sir CHARLES WETHERELL next applied, at the request of Lord Roscommon, that the ca - ge, as it re lated to the other parties, might be heard in private. They had come to an arrangement, which, if it met with the Court's approbation, would not take five minutes in being disposed of. The LORD CHANCELLOR consented tc hear the parties in private at three o'clock. COURT OF KING'S BENCH. BUSINESS OF TILE COURT. An order was posted this morning stating that no common jury eases will be taken till October. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAY FROM LLOYD'S.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, TwEr,rE o'CLocx. • Honduras Papers to the 7th June, Cape of Good Hope to the 1041 May, and Singapore to the 13th February, have been received at the North and South American Coffee-house. In the Honduras Papers there is an official des patch from the Commander-in-Chief of the United armies, stating, that at ten o'clock in the forenoon he occupied the great square in the capital, San Salvador, after it had been surrendered. It is signed Francis Morazan. Another despatch to the Minister of War, from Morazan, states that the actual position of the Re public, and the state of demoralization to which it is reduced by the civil war, requires the adoption of the most energetic measures to enforce the re4pect due to the laws and the authorities.

The Singapore Papers say that accounts had been received from Manilla that great agitation pre vailed there, owing to a plot having been discovered to declare its independence, and that a great num ber of individuals had been arrested and put into close confinement. It was said that the plan was to set the theatre on fire, kill the Governor, Admiral, and others in authority who were found in the theatre, and secure and murder the rest of the Eu ropeans; but little credit was given to the above report. The Cape of Good Elope Papers state that the Government Gazette, of the 13th of May, contains some alteration of the capitation taxes. The head. money, we believe 3s. 9d., paid by men above 16 years of age, and women above 20, and under 60, is increased six shillings, and is in future to be paid by every person above the age of 16 and 20, excepting married women.

On Tuesday 'William Davie, well knowu amongs t ! the Fancy by the appellation of " Jack the Painter.- -and Frederick Wentworth fought a pitched battler for .5/. a-side, near Hampstead. The combatants were both light weights. Paddy Flynn and the S t ' Gilcs's Chicken seconded Wentworth; and Jen' Raines anti Ned Murphy appeared for Davis. was Time-keeper. The men fought 68 rounds about two hours, during which Wentworth re' peatedly fell backwards, without receiving a blot' , :out there were cries of " foul." At the conclusion the fight, Wentworth was insensible, and wes carried to the Red Lion at Hampstead, where he lingered till the following day at four o'clock, ao u then expired. On Tuesday night Bill Eales (who is charged with being one of the men who kept the ring)P Paddy Flynn, one of the seconds, and Davis, (who fought the deceased), were apprehended, and brought before Hoare, Esq. and Bosanquet, Esq. , Magistrates of the county, resident at Hampstead , charged with the murder of Frederick Wentworth• John Phillips the first witness.—The fight lasted about an hour and three-quarters, and the deceased had the worst of it. He fell repeatedly, and some' times without having received a blow, and Davis fell upon him. George Wentworth, a brother of the deceased , stated that his brother was in bad condition when he fought, and the seconds pressed him to continue the battle after he had expressed a wish to give in. The deceased fell repeatedly during the fight, for was carried off th e groun d qu i te insensible; hi s death was caused by the injury he received during the fight. Th; MAGISTRATES said that they should commi t all the prisoners for the murder of the deceased: 0 ° bail would be accepted, and the prisoners were coin' mitted till the decision of the Coroner's Jury Is known.

So much for steam.—Stirling Jouro• At a meeting of the unemployed Spitalfields Weavers, last evening, it was resolved to prepare a Are morial, stating fully the grievances under which the,' laboured, and that the Weavers should proceed in a bodi to Windsor, and lay the same before his Afeassrr. We are assured from very high authority t 1324 there is no prospect whatever of any change taking plan in the Ministry.
