part of our respective superfices. But it is asto• rishing-16 see how differently different people conduct themselves under the same circum stances. There was a fat elderly agrieultutist from Waltham-cross _ packed up amongst us and he—lacking spirits to endure so much con fieement—roare'd out for a glass of brandy and " Warm, or cold, Sir ?" said the mis, tress of the inn, as she stood at her door, pitying our sad condition. " Cold !" exclaimed the cross Waltham-cross agriculturist—" drat thee ! doesn't think we've cold water enough a-ready Ering it as hot as —, as the mon says the play." A smoking bumper was forthwith handed to hi:n ; but no hand had he to receive it in ; by reason, both his hands were so wedged in between himself and his neighbours, that he could not extricate them. The agriculturist wax'd wroth the others all laughed ; the agriL eniturist was still more wroth like Tantalus, his mouth watcr'd for that which was: within his reach, and yet not comeatable. " Drat thee !" said he to the waiter, " Why doesn't jump up o'th'wheel and put the stuff to a body's mouth ?', The waiter declined that office. " Beg pardon, Sir," said he, " the brandy and water, Sir, is a shilling, Sir." In this perplexing emergency a kind and Christian hearted pas, senger, who, by 'ming been packed on the outside of the outside, had one arm at Elierty, tossing a shilling to the waiter and passed the smoking bumper to the longing lips of the agriculturist; but he was still doomed to disap pointment. His order to make it "as hot as had been so strictly performed that the first mouthful brought tears into his eyes ; and he look'd about as though he would have given another shilling for a chance of ejecting it de-. eently from the premises. But, placed as he was, he had nothing to do but to gulp and swallow it ; and before he could take another taste of " the stuff," crack ! went the whip. " Now, Sir !" cried the driver, " all right !"' responded some of us ; and off' we went—' leaving the boiling Cogniac to the grinning house-keeper, and carrying away with us the dis tressed agriculturist—scalded in the mouth, one. shilling out of pocket, and totally out of temper.; Drearily were we dragged along towards dis mal Dymchurch—but surely I think I have set down miseries enough for one letter ! So no more at present, from your humble servant, PETER PEREGRINE PRY. water. UTOPIAN SCHEME OF EDUCATION. After the annual public m eetin g of the Aca- . demy of Inscriptions, at Paris, for the distribu tion of prizes, last month, a course of acade mical lectures was given, at the end of the se cond of which, a very tedious one —to prove that the Thousand and One Nights arc prior in origin to Islamism—it was five o'clock, the au dience were rising to go, when M. Alexander de Laborde picsenteil himself; to deliver his lecture. gYery body was seated again, and he proceeded, with as much case as grace, to read a piece, which, ggcn at that how, appeared too short.— it was another romance of Utopia, upon educa tion, very singular, indeed, in its plan ; and what rendered it the more amusing was the tone of good faith with which M. Laborde unfolded ;t. The lecture i 4 entitled "of Education by Travelling ;' and the fundamental idea of it is that no man can have received a proper educa tion if he has net travelled. M. Laborde begins this -4lneation at an early period, and does not A u i s l i i t till y,,5 years of age. He divides it into thre parts" ,, elassic , scientific, and political. The tiot is accomplished at the 17th year, and,. by means of improving modes, it is much more complete than what is obtained now in our Col leges ; the second is followed until the 22d year, and the third until the 25th year. A selected course of travelling 'c ompletes each of these paw of the students education. After his classical studies, the youth will visit Italy, (;reeve, Egypt, Spain, - and the South of France. He will J oin to the study of the an cient masterpieces Unit of the places which in. spired them. On his return from France, lie will consecrate two years to the physical and ma the,natical sciences; and in the second course of traveii:ng, he will visit the principal chain of Inoti mAGs which form the compartments of the g l o b e ; l te k ill travel through Switzerland and over the ryqw.es, and the great mountains He. pus and Cauess4; he will see the deserts and the seas of ice. His third journey will comprise EnglAnd, Germany, and the finked States; it is thus our youth at twenty-five years of age will know mere of the world than all others do at sixty, and that lie will become a sort of living Encyclopedia. All this, we admit, is very fine; but when we consider the connection of neces sary causes, the narrowness of resources, the empire of duties; and, above all, that series of second causes which thwarts tile fortunes of al most all men—we are obliged to confess. , that the instances in which so fine a plan is possibly ap pi;,?able will be always very few. Most men are tinfortlmately condemned Ly faW to immobility they are a sort of plants attached to the coil, and they die if you re move them. We must, we are Aft aid, rai)p the plan of M. de Laborde among those plans which are scarcely practicable even to the privileged 4-tv ; and always wish him wet for the sake of his dreams themselves, which are ; those of an honest man and a lofty mind. CAPTAIN DICKENSON, It surprises every one that if the conduct of this officer rendered is: inquiry necessary, no complaint should have been ro.:de against him in the official communications which ,:.'mounted the battle of ixavarin to his Majesty's 6 0m ...intent. It is, there fore, necessary to state, for the rie:t., understanding of the matter, that the inquiry has Etat originated with the Admiralty, or Sir Edward Codrington, bu t has been granted at the request of Capt. Dickenson himself. The following are the circumstances under whiCh that request was made Prince. Lieven. communicating some time since to our Government the desire of his Sovereign to bestow Order upon Captain Dickenson for hi; bravery in the Action at! Navarin, he was informed that the recommendation of the Admiral %Nilo commanded the fleet in that memorable conflict, was necessary before permission could be given. The Prince consequently applied to Sir Edward Codrington, who objected, on the ground that no such honours had been proffered to Captains Baynes and Campbell, with whom ha wris ; better satisfied than with Captain Dickenson. The latter officer, on hearing that opinion, very properly thought it his duty to clear his conduct of the implied censure contained in the Admiral's answer, and for that purpose demanded to be tried by a Court, Martial, a demand which was at once acceded Sir Edward Codrington it is proper to state, is not the prosecutor. The following, we understand are the principal charges :—For not using springs on his cables and anchors, as directed by the Admiral. For firing into the Albion. For assertions that did not agree . with the log-book. For declarhig that the Captam of the Genoa was dead, when such an event dill not take pla ce t ill t h e next morning. For per mitting the re-fitting o f t h e G enoa to be unjustifiably slow. For suffering the Genoa's mast to go by the hour,!, for want <a tiring properly secured. For deliVerlilg a rtsoni ioLin front the ship's company to the Admiral, FORT ICjiN IN T FRENCH PAPERS. (Prom the Messager des Chambres, Aug. 23.) REPORTS. PARIS, AUG. 22.—1 t was reported to-lay at four o'clock, that an express had brought the news of the taking of Constantiaople , by the Russian army. • The embarkalcn of a considerable number of troops at Mar , e;lles was talked of to-day on 'Change. The nomination of M. de Vitrolles is confirmed. It is affirmed - that the Chambers will meet at the end of September. The extracts which we give this morning from the Mouileur tend to confirm this opinion. [Alluding to the ordinances for the assembly of certain Elec toral Colleges, [ublished in the Monileur of Satur day.] M. de Chatcaubriand arrived this evening at Paris. The Noble Ambassador did not proceed on his way to Rome, when he learnt what a revolution had taken place in the Cabinet of France. He would not be an accomplice, even at a distance, of these twparalleled changes, which all his sagacity had foot 'ed him to foresee. A report was in circulation at Havre, of a levy of seamen among the sailors there, who are very numerous. It was also said, that orders had been given to several houses for extensive purchases of foreign corn. . . (From the Quotidienne of Sunday.) PARIS, AUG. 22.—1 t was reported to-day on 'Change, that Admiral Malcolm, after collecting the whole of the maritime force that the English have in the Mediterranean, had entered the Dardanelles, with the consent of the Sultan. (From the Gazette de France of Saturday.) PARIS, AUG. 22.—A letter from Count Offalia, Ambassador from Spain at the Court of France, informs us that the declaration inserted in our paper yesterday did not proceed from him, as we were assured by the person who brought it to our office, and that he had not authorized any body to ask for the insertion of such a paper. It results fiom the letter, and from the inquiries we have made, that M. Dubois Bergeron, having waited on his Excel lency to confer on the interests of the holders of the loan, proposed verbally, and also in writ ing, the publication in the journals of a notice of the same tetmur as that which we have inserted; and that some verbal explanations, given by the Legation, were, without reason, represented as official communications, and inaccurately reported. We must add, that these statements have been given this morning to the syndics of the brokers. After quoting a passage from the Courrier Fran cais, predicting the fall of Constantinople, the Gazette adds— " We know that the liberal faction has long been wishing far a general conflagration favourable to re volutions; but this time, again, its hopes wi:l be dis appointed. His Majes:y the Emperor of Russia haying formally declared that he desired no aggran d;zement of territory, and that he was ready to treat of peace on bases at once equitable and honourable, the respective interests of the Russian and Ottoman empires will be amicably regulated by the Powers concerned, who are all of them animated with the most pacific sentiments towards each other. If this grand contest is to be terminated under the walls of Constantinople, the conclusion of it will not differ from what it would have been at Akertnann two years ago. For this we may depend on the probity of the Russian sovereign and the firm will of France, England, end Prussia, for the re-establishment and the consolidation of peace. Thus the predictions of :be Courricr will fall to the ground ;—thus the in flueece of these great events on recent determinations is now in part explained." (The Moniteur contains nothing new.) (From the Allgemeine Zeitung of Aug. 19 ) (ALSO RECEIVED BY THE EXPRESS.) BUCHAREST, Ace. 4.—The accounts from the theatre of war continue to be favourable to the Russians. It is said, that General Diebitsch, after ?eking Messembria, &e. has turned towards Athia nople, where, according to all accounts, hardly any resistance is to be expected, though the city has 100,000 inhabitants. The Turks fly in all directions at the approach of the Russian army, and a great number of the inhabitants have left Adrianople, and withdrawn into the interior. General Geismar, with 8,000 men, has advanced from Rachova on the road to Sophia, and this movement threatens great and speedy danger to the Turks. It is said that Servia begins to be agitated, and it is not probable that the Sultan can resist all these dangers. SEMLIN, AUG. B.—Letters from Constantinople say that the capital is in the greatest danger, and that the Sultan has therefore resolved to move his camp to Ramis-Tchiflik. Many persons in office 'lave been disgraced : among them is Ezrard-Ef fendi, the dragoman of the Porte, who acted so great a part in the negotiations with the mediating Powers. The Sultan sends orders to all the pro vinces to defend themselves to the utmost, and every commander who shows the least weakness is 'mmediatelv displaced. Hussein Pacha has been ordered to 'Adrianople to defend it if attacked. ANCONA, JULY 30.—Litters from Alexandria, of the 10th instant, say that the Viceroy had assem bled his fleet to convey troops to Smyrna, but that having received news of an mstnrection of the We ehabites, he has given counter orders, and will employ his troops against them. This change in the destination of the expedition may affect the operations in Europe in a manner unfavourable to the Turks. A journal in the Asiatic language is now pub !ished at Alexandria. The Austrivt Observer of the 14th of August has only a letter from Constantinople of the 30th of July, which contains no news.

A. considerable advantage, we understand, is about to s.re,e,l4e to the revenue, by some improvements in the mode of taking ;he malt duty. It has usually been the practice for the officers 4f the Excise to estimate the quantity of malt made, by the measirrgment in cubic inches of a single bushel, applying the same at the same ratio to any bulk however large. But it is the property of malt, it seems, when in bulk, on account of the pressure, to occupy a rain...ger space in proportion than the single bushel ; and hence it i.,4s occurred, that a quantity which according to the exciseman's p;i;eiple measured (say) 20 bushels, produced, when measured out agaid Jay the single bus 1, lor 21-1 bushels. Thus the Government re gularly stisi.airied a loss of five or seven and a half per cent. in the duty. Wo si.a,vigion of the real cause has, however, existed until lately ; for thoi4gh the discovery could scarcely fail to follow that more malt was r 04.4 than actually paid duty, it was more natural in the Government agents to ascribe it 4; the fraud of the maltster than to their own incapacity. An atr.. - .ll,?;ement or composition with the Government is now made, o. it p.'o:)ut to be made, by which an addition cf about three and a Ina per cent, to the duty will take place, and this, though it is ima&ed that the Government wri! still receive less th , n i ts i ust du e , will add, it is estimated, J OP,POOI. per annum to the revenue, PRICES OF STOCKS THIS DAY AT ONE O'CLOCK. t3.lnk Stock 217 164 South Sea Stock sslg 3 per Cent. ited. 5.9%% Old Annuities 3 per Cent.

We have no further intelligence from the seat of V. ar, but the general opinion now inclines to le probability that the army of DIEBITSCH is by this time in possession of Constantinople. For this opinion there is abundant reason, judg ing by the ordinary rules of war. At the end of July the Russians were within little more lan one hundred miles of the capital; and if they decided upon keeping up the terror which their rapid march and astounding victories had created, they would at once move on Constantinople, which they might easily reach in a week. If an army— that is the heterogenous multitude of Constan tinople—dared to meet them in the field, the ulti mate conquest of the capital would be rendered more easy, from the certain discomfiture of those who had compromised its defence by hazarding a preliminary battle in the open field. Even the SULTAN himself, with his chosen guard of 15,000 or 20,000 men, animated by his Im- perial presence, and the shadow of the Holy Standard, would little avail against soldiers who had marched so far in one uniform career of victory, where victory was considered impossible, The 'Russians would besides fight with the se• curity of a safe retreat—for the strong holds or the coast are in their possession. On the ot l ier hand, if General DIEBITSCII should think it more prudent first to take Ad rianople, what is to prevent him ? The Turks who were to have defended that place, were de- feated at Aidos—and those who could escape with their lives, were hardly allowed time afterwards to rally. At Adrianople, General DIEEITSCH would very probably be joined by General GEISMAR, who had, sonic con- siderable time before, marched on Sophia, from which he would proceed to Philippolis, and either march on Adrianople or towards the coast, as circumstances might warrant. If GEISMAR proceeded towards the Darda nelles, he could act in conjunction with the Russian fleet—seize the forts, and open dpassage to the Sea of Martnora, while the fleet in the Black Sea would enter the Bosphorus, and make a conjoint attack on Constantinople, while DIEBITSVII pressed it on the land side. This view of operations may appear too bold, but we think it not at all improbable, from a consideration of all the circumstances of the war, and the relative position of the respective forces. The capture of Constantinople must of course form Ohl main object of the Russians. That once obtained, all the others would fall in is a matter of course. But when the Russians once get there, hpw changed will be their tone Then, and not till then, will England and France find out that they have been deceived by Rus sian promises, and overreached by diplomatic allress. The next news from Constantinople must be looked for with intensity, proportioned to the importance of a crisis so near at hand. It is as ever,—that he will li3ten to no terms—and that the conferences wii h the English and French Ambassadors are broken off. If so, he richly merits the humiliating catastrophe, which, in all probability, is so near at hand. We have accounts from New Brunswick this morning, which give a comparative statement of the arrivals at the port of St. John, from the Ist January to the 16th June, 1828, and the cor responding period of 1829. From this it ap pears that 125 vessels arrived in the former pe riod, and that in the latter there had been 145, being an increase in the present year of 20 ves sels. The number of emigrants arriving at St. John's, from the Ist May last to the 16th June, was 1,158, an increase of 372 over the corre spending period of last year. A great propor- ion of these had, as usual, gone to the United States. It appears, by the official notice from his Ma jesty's Resident Agent for the Superintendence of Settlers and Emigrants in the Canadas, that situation had been selected in both the Upper and Lower Provinces, for the reception of such industrious emigrants as might feel disposed- to settle thereon. The Gasperaux fishery had been more productive than for many seasons, the whole quantity taken being estimated at 15,000 barrels. The following are extracts from German Papers received this morning. The passage of the " impregnable !" Balkan is said, in letters from Odessa, to have cost the Russians only 300 men. How is it that the malicious have not paved the way NA ith gold, as at Varna and Silistria ? SYR A, JULY 6.—The evils which the friends of order and peace have feared as the inevitable produce of the seed which they scattered in Greece, begin to manifest them • selves. The violent pas-ions which Cap() d'lstria's policy has excited and cherished, that they might serve him as means to forward the views of Russia, are going to give him more than he asked, and very deservedly entangle him in all the embarrassments which he bad so diligently contrived for others. Thus we have another instance that the diplo matic policy, which some call ability, and which consists in deceiving all for• the benefit of one, fails in its object, and gives new arms to the cause of probity and sincerity. The Chiliarch Chriitopulo [Luigi Pedro, whom the President had pardoned for the excesses committed at Le panto, and who, after a few days arrest, was sent back to command his battalion, the line•t and most numerous in Western Greece, has again raised the standard of revolt. In concert with the notorious Strato, one of the authors of the troubles which in 1827 stained Napoli di Roman4t with blood for several months together, he has surprised the fort of Lepanto, expelled the garrison, con is;sting of 200 men (regular troops), under the command of Colonel Pieri, and taken possession of it, driving out all the officers appointed by the President. Col. Pieri received a wound in the head from a stone, and is said to have die.l in consequence. According to a report, which, however, is not yet confirmed, one of the first Secretaries of the Panhellenion, who was but lately placed at the bead of one of the departments of the Administration, had a share in the plot. This report has excited at Egina a sen sation difficult to be described. Count Augustin Capo d'lstria, who was on board the Hellas frigate, wished to bombard the fort, but those about him dissuaded Lim. •It is known that he has arrived at Napoli, to acquaint the President with what hiss happened. The President, it is said, in tends him for the place of Probulos (Counsellor) to the Commission for Ecclesiastical Affairs, a post that is better suited to the talents and inclinations of the Count. It is even reported that Count Augustin intends to take holy orders, that he may in the sequel become Patriarch of Greece, a report which does not appear to be wholly un founded. Captain Payko, Governor of Fort Palamidi, has been promoted to the rank of Lieutenant-Colonel, and the chief command of the fortresses of Morca and Patras. This appointment does great honour to the President, and is universally approved. Captain Muller will have hence forth the command of both Itsch Kale and the Palamidi. Count Pisa is appointed Military Governor of Napoli di Romania, in the room of Colonel Heidegger, who has re turned to Bavaria. _ _ _ VIENNA, Atm. 15.—A letter from Odessa of the 3d August, from a respectable quarter, quotes letters from Varna of the 30th July, which announce the occupation 4)f the towns on the coast, and say that the Tuiks fly in all directions, and that the passage of the Balkan cost the Russians less than 300 men. The letter adds, " The sick in pur neighbourhood are going on pretty well, and I hope that we (in Odessa) shall remain free." The following relates to Greece and its Rus- sian President : The Couri r de Smyrne of the 12th of July has a letter from Egina of the 2d of July, which says that the island of Candia has sent forty-eight deputies to the Na tional Assembly, which seems to indicae that Candle is a part of the Greek state, in spite of the declaration of the Allied Powers. It is generally believed that tl:e Assembly will not sit above a month. The 500,000 francs which the French Resident placed at the disposal of the President, will soon be used. He lately complained to the shareholders of the National Bank of the poverty cf the Treasury. Yet the taxes ought to have more than met the public exi gencie4, and the donations of France and Russia, which would have enriched a much greater State than Greece, have afforded no relief, because they have been employed in gaining adherents. All possible pains are taken to show how necessary it is to reject the choice of a future Prince Greece, and the supremacy of the Porte• The Presi dent hul just received a million of rubles from Russia, and nobody can fail to see bow opportune this remittance is, when we see what Russia and the President expect from the National Assembly. With this view the President al on a sudden throws himself into the arms of the nation l and acts before all Greece the comedy of a new liberalism. We are pleased to observe by the German Papers that the state of the harvest on the Con tinent is particularly cheering. The accounts from all quarters represent the produce to be so great that a material fall in the prices was the consequence : MENTz, Auc. 15.—Our corn-market yesterday was wr y animated, in consequence of the large supp , ies. What we foresaw a week ago took place to-day. There was a considerable decline in the prices ; for the accounts f ro m all quarters announcing a productive harvest, deter the purchasers, while, on the other han4, the necessary labours of the field prevent the sellers from bringing their corn to market. A farther decline is expected, as all the especially from Fr ance , announce a cons id era bl e nfarin the the prices.—Frankfort Papers, Aug. 18. The advices from France this morning, men tion that a great sensation had been caused at H a vre, by a report in general circulation, that a large levy of seamen was to be made, and that important movements of troops were about to take place. It was still asserted that the Polihh diet was to assemble in October, and that a Congress of Sovereigns would then be held. Accounts from Cadiz, to the Gth inst., re ceived this morning, furnish us with the number of June, from which it appears that there were 76 for Spanish ports, 14 for foreign, and two for America. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. We have just received, by Express from Paris, the Paris journals of Monday morning, and the Gazette de France, dated Tucsday. The Moniteur contains a Royal Ordinance, appointing Baron d'llaussez, Counsellor of State, Member of the Chamber of Deputies, and Prefect of the Gironde, to be Minister of the Marine and Colonies. (From the Gazette de• France.) PARIS, Ave. 24.—Though Constantinople was in great agitation after the late news, and serious disorders were apprehended, there had not been any fires, as the German journals have pretended. The news of the battle of Kirk-Kili,sa was brought to Munich by a Russian Minister who came from Vienna, and to whom this victory was announced by M. de Ta tischeff.

The peasantry running about fo arms—the respectable Catholics in a state of the T most violent indignation—the liberal Protestants vexed and astonished—the Munswickers scared out of what few wits they have, with transport at the triumphant acquittal of the police-men and the Orange Ledger—such are the feel ings that now more or less excite every in- dividual throughout Tipperary. We are not surprised at this ; we should be surprised only were it otherwise, for the late Assize trials at Clonmel have been decided ir a way cal culated to exasperate to frenzy the already sufficiently heated feelings of the Catholics many .of whom have not hesitated openly to declare, that in future they will expect neither redress, nor even justice, from the law. Among the number of obnoxious individuals in that part of Ireland, the present Solicitor-General (Mr. O'DottEgTv) holds no undistinguished rank. His conduct during the trials at Borris-o- kane has created very general disapprobation, not confined to the mere peasantry, but extending itself generally throughout the more influential circles of the Catholics and liberal Protestants. How the affair will end we know not ; but w e shall certainly not be astonished, though grieved, to hear that, before a few weeks have transpired, he whole county of Tipperary is in a state of open insurrection. THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, Twar.rs o'CLocr. It was generally thought that General Santa Ana, with his troops, would have joined the Spanish expedition on their landing, but we have received from the North and South American Coffee-house an abstract of an important Manifesto from General Santa Ann, contained in a Mexican Paper to the 18th of June, addressed to the States, which breathes a strong- spirit for liberty and maintenance of the Constitution; he in an animated style exhorts the Mexicans to seek perfect tranquillity, to en courage industry and the arts, and to educate their children, as a safeguard to their liberties. The publi cation of the General completely vindicates his reputation from suspicions which have been hinted at. The Hobart Town Papers contain information from Sydney of the 18th March, stating that the affairs of the sister colony are in a worse state than ever; this is the natural consequence of over trading. Nothing has been done in respect of the forma tion of Councils; it was supposed that General Darling had received blank warrants, but that be did not mean to act upon them. Very important ' arrangements were said to be dependent on the re turn of Colonel Dumaresq to the colony, which was daily expected. Accounts from Constantinople, of the same date as last received (July 30), state that the Janissaries are beginning to show themselves, and act. A great number of individuals have been arrested, and the Imperial Turkish Guard have entered the capital to keep order. Patrols of cavalry are parading the streets night and day. The Russian fleet eras cruis ing at the mouth of the Dardanelles, probably to prevent the Turkish fleet from getting out, which will not be attempted, as the Capitan Pacha has come on shore. Accounts from Bucharest Wig in formation that a second expedition of 8,000 men has left Sebastopol for Sizeboli. Consols, which left off yesterday at 884 for the Account, opened this morning at 881 .1, with the market looking up for a further improvement, and at present Consols may be quoted 88,1 buyers, and for October Account 89 buyers.

A MATRIMONIAL FREAK.—This morning Mr. HALLS was applied to, by a decent looking man) who stated that he had been a setjeant in the Cold stream Guards, for assistance, under the followieg, circumstances :—He stated, that in consequence 01 illness, he had been discharged from his regiment, and had sent his wife to a village, in Suffolk, he intended settling, it being his native village. lie had confided with her 20/. in money, and som e fur niture and other property. He remained in town n order to receive the amount of a subscription Vihicl-3 the officers of his regiment had raised for blu r: When, however, he returned to his native. villag he found that his wife had decamped with a ll hi° property. He afterwards traced her to Ch elsea, where he found she had been living with a 01 serjeant of another regiment. He then lo st " all further clue to her. He sought out her para mour, and sharply reproached him with his treachery. The other, however, stoutly denied any knowledge o f her. Mr. HALLS observed, that perhaps lie had told th e truth. The serjeatit replied that he had the mo st painful evidence of his wife's in fidelit y . Mr. HALLS, however, told him t hat a Ma g istrate had no power to interfere. w here The Serjeant then observed, that he had spent his last shilling in search of his faithless wife, and had no means of returning to his native place, where he would gladly go, if he could. . Mr. HAMS said, that there was no fund from which he could relieve the unfortunate man, who could only be relieved by applying to the overseers for a pass. VICISSITUDES OF SINGLE BLESSEDNESS.—A prag matical variety of the lawyer's clerk species, brougtit up on an assault warrant the son of a tradesman in Chancery-lane. The clerk stated, that some til ne ago he had the misfortune to become acquainted with the defendant's sister, with whom he had been living, for the last six mouths. The defendant on Friday night insulted him, told him that he had robbed 'his sister, and then threatened to beat ills head off. He considered himself in such dange lawr, that he prayed the Magistrate to bind the co m p' ant over to keep the peace, as he had always be hayed in a kind and affectionate manner to the sister. The defendant stated, that the complainant had first locked his mother up in a room .of ben house, and then taken away the sister, n" der pretence of marrying her. Some time afterwards he (defendant) had found out they had not been married, and interfered. The complainant then gave him two shillings to publish the banns of marriage, which he did. The cow .. plainant then deserted the girl, and was now living with another girl, whom he had also seduced. Mr. HALLS dismissed the warrant in strong terms, and the clerk sneaked off. The sister, a young girl of 16, appeared, i n or der to corroborate the brother's statement. THE MARKETS.--(THIS DAY). CORN EXCHANGE.

The rate of count, it appears, had risen there to 4i and 5 per cent l which is very unusual, and implies an i n different state v; credit. It is said that a good many failures have OCCUI in the north of Germany among persons connecte4 wit f the trade in coin ; and to this, prdlaahlv, the difficulty ° obtaining accommodation in Hamburg is principal l y be ascribed, though there might also exist a scarcity money on account of exportation of silver to Russia, whit' has been going on pretty extenalvely throughout the sum rne . r.
