FRENCH PAPERS. (From the Gazette de France, Jan. 18.) BERLIN, JAN. 10.—A Russian courier has passed through this city on his way to London. The ne gotiations for peace are carrying on with great ac tivity; and it is affirmed that the Emperor of Russia, on the intervention of our Sovereign, has given very satisfactory assurances which will revive the almost extinguished hopes of the partisans of the policy of England. PARIS, JAN. 17.—The Duke de Mortemart, Am bassador from France to St. Petersburgh, has not yet quitted Paris ; he will set out on Monday the 19th. Count de la Ferronnays will set out to morrow for Nice, whither he is going for the re covery of his health. (From the Courier Francais of Sunday.) P.►Rts, JAN. 17.--The news of the return of a third of the expedition to the Mores, is one of the most unexpected events that has happened fora long time. It causes the more surprise, by arriving at Toulon at a time when new contracts were entering into for transports. The fate of Greece, however, will not be de cided at Paris, but on the Danube ; hut, in the mean -time, the filmy ought to remain in Greece unless it is to f►ll into the possession of the Turks in a fortnight, and our army return, not covered with laurels, but with the cypress of Greece. The Powers have done all in their• power at Constantinople to preserve peace. They deserve 110 reproach, but they are embarrassed. France and England wish that the Turks may succeed on the Danube, though this success will be directly i❑ opposition to that diversion of the Turkish arms they have in fact caused in the Mores. It may happen that those whO are allies in the Morea may be enemies on the Danube, for the English ►will not allow Conetanti nople to be taken or destroyed. There is here, then, a complicAon of interests, which embarrasses the different Caiinets. FRENCH FUNDE, J.N. 17.—Five per Cents., 108 f. 60c.; Three per Cents., rilf. 90c. ; Bank Actions, 1,780 f.

CIRCULAR. WAR-OFFICE, JAN. 14, 1829. SlR,—Several applications, founded en the pro posed Reduction of the Militia Staff, having been made to me, respecting the discharge of Serjeants, I have the honour to acquaint you, that as the ex tent to which the Reduction shall be carried into effect will depend upon the determination of Parlia ment, it will be advisable that no Serjeanta should be discharged until such determination shall have been announced. And as the claims of the Serjeants to be pensioned are made to depend, not only upo❑ length of 'ervice, but unfitness and infirmity, resulting from military duty, it will be essential to ascertain, before they are discharged, whether their cases can be brought tithing the regulations under which Militia Pensions are granted. I take this opportunity of informing you, that the clothing due on the 25th ult. is to be supplied for the number of Non-Commissioned Officers and Drummers intended to be retained ; and that those whose reduction is contemplated will be considered as entitled to compensation to the date of their dis. charge I have the honour to be, Sir, Your most obedient Servant, 11. HARDINGE. To the Colonels of Militia. The Bishop of London and Lord Farnbo rough visited the Duke of Wellington yesterday. Yesterday the Lord Alayor gave a splendid entertainment to the Duke of Wellington, and others of the Nobility, at the Mansion-house. Several apologies were seat to his Lordship, in consequence of prior engage ments to his Royal Highness the Duke of Clarence, who entertained the young Queen of Portugal, and a large party of the first ranks. At half-past six the company began to arrive at the Mansion-house : amongst them were—Lord Melville, Lord Lowther, Lord Ashley, Lord Eliot, the Bishop of Idandaff, the Speaker of the House of Commons, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Sir Henry Hardinge, M.P., the Vice-Chancellor, Lord Chief Justice Best; Mr. Justice Park, Mr. Baron Vaughan, Mr. Justice Bayley, Justice Sir J. Parke, Mr. Holmes, M.P. Mr. G. Bankes, M.P., Mr. Planta, Mr. Dawson, M.P., Mr. Horace Twiss, M.P., the Governor and Deputy-Governor .f the Bank of England, the Chairman and Deputy Chair man of the Last India Company, Mr. Rothschild, and several others of both Houses of Parliament. Most of the Aldermen were of the company. SACRED Mustc.—Yesterday evening Mr. 'Mather, the Organist of St. Bride's Church, Fleet-street, performed a selection of sacred music on the organ, ac cording to annual custom, consisting of several of the finest compositions of Handel, Haydn, Mozart, Bach, tv.c. all of which were executed with much taste. In the se cond part he introduced an extempore fantasia, which was admirably adapted to display the powers of the instrument and the science of the performer. The scanner in which the airs were given was peculiarly striking, the vocal parts tieing performed on the cremossa stop, the accompaniments no other stops, while the basses 6..-ere played by the pedals, the whole producing an orchestral effect. In a few of the pieces Mr. Mather was assisted by his pupil, Mr. Brown, the organist of St. Clement's Danes. The entire was a musical treat of great excellence, and excited the 'Atli. vided admiration of all who were in the Church, which bras crowded in every part. - - - - SPRING OF PURE WATEB.-" Pcp loring this forenoon the vicinity of Monte Pala'im I discovered in an obscure corner, near the Temple of Romulus, the time-balloted spring of Juturna, rising with crystal clew - ne ss near the Cloaca p Maxima, into which it flows unvalued and forgotten. I refreshed myseif in the mid-day beat by drinking its pure lymph from the hulloes of my hand, and gazed with long and insatiable delight upon the memorable fountain. This ...acted spot is sorraunded and ()to:eared by contiguous buililintts, and the walls are luxuriantly fringed w i t h mo vies, lichens, and broad-leaveil ivy. The proud Aqueducts of tke expanding city diminish the value and im portance of this spring ; but it was unquestionaVy the ruling motive which determined Romulus, or possibly an earlier colony of Greeks, to take root here, as within the wide compass of the Roman walls there is no other source cff pure water.—Blackwoorrs Magazine.

The speech of Lord MORLEY was followed by one of nearly equal merit, from Lord EBRING TON, who viewed the question as a sound prac tical logician, and drew the matter for his argu- ment from the storehouse af his own experience: He broadly stated that, unless Emancipation were conceded, a separation between England and Ire land must ensue ; and justly added, that as he had a stake in both countries, his remarks were entitled to some consideration. Sir THOMASLETHBRIDGE—that mirror of intellect and liberality—then presented himself, and made the same impression on the Meeting that he usually makes on the House of Com mons. As a matter of course he was received with universal laughter, with difficulty smothered by the Brunswickers, and unequivocally indulged in by the Liberals. Happy man ! 7 --whose elo quence an &aria faction of its sting, and raise a smile on the face of hatred itself.—“ Felix hen nimiunt felix." The meeting—notwithstanding the impatience of the Brunswickers to come to a decision-4as not at an end till dark, when the Orange mob, who had been duly hired, packed up, and ticket ted for the occasion, returned ,to their own homes, delighted no doubt with the victory they had achieved over an enemy they knew not whom, and upon principles with which they were equally well acquainted. So ended the Devon Anti-Catholic Meeting—the grand apotheosis of intolerance ! By his MAJESTY'S brig Frolic, we have re ceivedeTrinidad Papers to the 29th November, and Barbadoes of the 2d December. The Go vernor of the island of St. Thomas's had, under date of the Ist of that month, issued a . proclama tion, offering a reward of 500 pieces . of eight. for the apprehension of STEPHEN CABOT and JOHN WILLIAM SEIAW, who composed the firm of CABOT and Co:, accused of co-operation, and fining out the piratical schooner Las Damas Argentinas. There are some interesting parti culars in these Papers of the capture of Guiria, a place on the opposite part of the South A me , rican Main, belonging to ColOmbia, between which much trade had formerly been carried on by a band of rebels, who had been lately banished from the Main, and were allowed most injudiciously an asylum in Trinidad. Genera BERMUDEZ,' however, who had on a former oc casion dispersed these brigands, after they had kept the province of Cumana in continual alarm, was on his march against them with a large force. A large armed schooner and a flechera had ar rived at Guiria from Cumana, upon the approach of which, it is said, the chief rebel CASTELLO, and a few of his followers, had retreated into the woods. Accounts from the Havannah of the 28th Nov. state, that Admiral LABORDE, with his division of two sail of the line, four frigates, and several brigs, was still at anchor in the roads ; one ship and a frigate were on the eve of sailing, to cruize near Belize, where a pirate of great force had appeared. The foolish enactments of the law, and the still more witless manner in which they are executed, have prevented the students of Anatomy from ()braining any other subjects for their scien : tifie researches than those which are raised from the grave. It is plain that so revoking and dangerous a task will be undertaken by the most reckless and desperate persons only, and hence arises the much-lamented connection between the teacher of Anatomy and the Resurrection man. But it is strange that there should be any persons who imagine that any direct intercourse can possibly exist between per Sons so highly re spected and respectable as the teachers of Anatomy, and the worthless ruffians who carry on the trade in dead bodies. A middleman, called a porter, is attached to all dissecting rooms, and by him all the orders for dead bodies given and pll the bargains made. The porter sells the dead body to'the lecturer or his pupils, who are as ignorant of the source whence the subjects are derived as any person not pursuing the study of Anatomy can he. It is foolish to say that they ought to inquire. We have no hesitation in saying that, unless under circum stances of- well grounded suspicion, they ought not to inquire. Such questions would connect the Anatomist more deeply with a disgusting and illicit trade than he now unhappily is. They SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE--(T Ills DAY.) could not lead to any good result, and surely PROM LLOYD'S. every one will see that the expert characters who DEAL, JAN. 19.—Wind NM. to W.N.W.— can deceive the police will find a thousand Arrived from London, the Woodmanston, Wrangles, .ways for Jamaica. to deceive a physician.

G ry oo l d ak H y ope, is come into with impunity ? Certainly not. But the remedy must be found by the Government. Medical men have done what medical men could do, by pointing out the remedy which their acquaintance with the facts led them to think the preferable one. The public is much deceived in thinking physicians and surgeons peculiarly interested in his question. They are no otherwise interested than other membe►:s of the community. Subjects they must have, subjects they will have, but they well know that by offering a larger sum they will obtain subjects, notwithstanding the severest enactments which the Legislature could enforce. Such demons as BURKE will always be found, who, in spite of all fear here and hereafter, will find dead bodies either by raising them or by making them. There is scarcely a Newgate calendar which does notprove that murders are committed for much smaller sums than those given for dead bodies. Medical men also know, that if they are prevented from pursuing the study of Anatomy, though much more imperfect practitioners, their seivicts will be not less necessary to the sick. The difference to the public will be thA instead of cutting up the dead they will dissect the living. Let society look to it. It is vain to deny it. The Government alone is responsible for all the confusion and crime which have agitated and alarmed the public mind. The Government received full and fair warning ; the very crimes which have taken place were pre dicted long ago; the probability of their occurrence was admitted on all hands, yet what has the Government done ? Has any one step been taken in the way of prevention ? Even at this moment it is more than probable that the in fernal monsters who pursue this trade of blood, have seduced sonic deluded and innocent victim within their dark abode of horrors—yet even now the Government pursues its old beaten path of temporising and delay. Mr. PEEL receives de putation after deputation with great affability and attention, promises consideration of the case, and does nothing. There is but one remedy—it has been pointed out a hundred times—make bodies cheap ; make them worthless, by surrendering to the dissector the unclaimed remains of all those who die in the poor-houses, the hulks, the prisons, and the hospitals. The trade of the resurrection-man will thus be ruined, and the most desperate cha racters of the metropolis cease to have a point :of contact with the most humane and benevolent ; but to effect this we must have a Home Secre tary who is not afraid to do his duty.

We direct the earnest attention of our readers to the report of the sufferings of the poor fishermen at Queenborough. Their case is really a most distressing one ; and hard indeed must be that heart to whose generous sympathies it does not most successfully appeal. Most earnestly do we trust that Parliament will be in duced to interfere, and see an ample measure awarded of justice to the starving victims of oly. rlion a It is confidently reported that the Marquis O SALISBURY is to be, the new Lord Lieutenant of Ireland. The Devon Anti-Catholic Meeting—the term Brunswick, as we observed some time since, seems already exploded—which took place on Friday last, at Exeter, was remarkable for the in genious turbulence of the No-Popery men, and the high-minded, but somewhat too chivalrous moderation of the Liberals. It was, in fact, a second edition of the Penenden-heath Meeting. The same earnestness, the same desperate conviction of a bad cause characterised the conduct of the Brunswickers, who had re- course to every stratagem, however unworthy, that might lend them an air of triumph, while the Liberals trusted almost exclusively to the moral and intellectual justice of their auditors. The former, with a modesty highly creditable to their discernment, were well aware of their own mental deficiencies, so came prepared with a long array of brute force to back them ; the latter essay ed no arts but those of argument, good feeling, and intelligence. The result, tVerefore, was precisely what might have been anticipated. The triumph of noise and trickery was with the Brunswickers, that of reason and charity with the Liberals. The high honour of opening the cause of " No Popery," was assigned to Mr. FURSDOW, and seldom has the mantle of bigotry fallen upon worthier shoulders. Like my Lord WINCHIL SEA at Penenden Heath, he began by deprecat ing say hostile feeling towards the Catholics— an assertion which he followed up with con sistent ingenuity, by distorting their religious and political tenets through two-thirds of a column in the Western Times. He had also the assurance to observe—and the observation, if we could forget the trifling circumstance of its utter falsity, has really an imposing character—that " it was probable at that moment that Ireland was in a state of civil war;' and closed his phillippie by reading- a petition, in which it was stated that the Papists enjoyed " the most unlimited reli gious toleration." Unlimited religious tolera tion ! ! What is it, then, that has made the Ca tholic a slave in his own country ? What is it that has made. him a raria a crea ture of degraded caste, to whom justice is a l u xury to be denied ? What—but it is idle to continue, the question scarcely deserves an answer. The speech of Lord M°R t. EY, who followed in the wake of Mr. FURSDON, was full of rich materials for reflection ; it abounded in reason, good feeling, and liberality, put forth in a calm philosophical manner, that was of course caviare to the Brunswickers. Had they indeed been CREBIORNII V. ANTROBUS. Sir G. GREY was instructed to enquire if his Lordship had read the Master's Report in this case. His LORDSIII? said the Report had been handed to him, but he had not yet had an opportunity of reading it, he would do so in the course of a day or two, and would then deliver his judgment on the point. 'The Court then proceeded tvith cause petitions, but nothing of any public importance occurred be fore we left. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT. ELSCE IN THE MATTER OF JOYNER. His Hosoun gave judgment to-day upon this pe tition.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH. :SFR INGEMENT OF A PATENT.- CR OSSLEY V. BEVERLEY. This was an action by the assignees of the late Mr. Clegg, inventor and patentee of an improved gas apparatus, against the defendant, for the in fringement of a patent obtained by him for a gas meter or guage, of which 15,678 had been sold in the space of five years. Sir J. Scarlett and Mr._F. Pollock were engaged for the plaintiff, and Mr. Brougham, Mr. Patterson, and Mr. Cummins, for the defence. The infringement complained of was the applica tion of an improved principle for measuring gas by a rotatory wheel and the assistance of water, the exclu sive invention of which was claimed by Air. Clegg, who also obtained an exclusive right to a benefit from such principle, however applied by other persons. The case was likely to last the whole of the day, COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. BARKER V. BARKER AND ANOTHER. This was an actio❑ of trespass for injury done to some furniture belonging to the plaintiff. It appeared that the plaintiff held some premises from the defendants, which the latter was desirous of repairing, but the plaintiff would not consent. The defendants, determined to carry the repairs into effect, took possession of the premises, and repaired them against the wishes of the plaintiff, and in so doing broke and otherwise damaged the Inrniture in question. The Jury found a verdict for the plaintiff.—Da triages, 201. The CHIEF JUSTICE recommended the plaintiff to make some arrangement, and accept of a less sum in order to prevent further litigation, al the damages were certainly more than the circumstances of the case would justify. Mr. Sergeant WILDE declined to do so, and said that 501. were given in a case yesterday, and no such suggestion was thrown out. The CHIEF JUSTICE said that the circumstances of the case were very different from the present.— His only object was to prevent unnecessary litigation The Lord Chancellor visited Mr. Secretary Peel yesterday at the Home-office.

COBURG THEATRE.—L; st night a very effective Melo-drama was produced at this Theatre, under the title of " The Mysteries of Alvimo."

The villain of the piece, for there can be no inehi-drama without a villain, is a sorcerer, sod by means of his magic arts commits all sorts of crimes, until at length his victims become his be trayers, and he is destroyed in a conflagration of the cata combs of Rome. The wildness of the pi ca adds mach to its interest, and the good acting of Messrs. Lewis, Mor timer, Gann, and Cobham, cannot fail to reader it attrac tive. It was received throughout with the strongest de monstrations of applause, . . . OLD BAILEY.—(THIS DAY.) OLD COURT. Benjamin Barrup,. the young man who was tried on Friday.last for the Wilful murder of Mary Mort - - • lock and acquitted, was this morning again placed at the bar, on a fresh indictment, charging him with tnaliciouslY shooting at the said Mary Mortlock, with intent to do her some grievous bodily harm. Thv prisoner was dressed very differently to what he was on the first trial; he appeared to maintain the same firmness and composure as on the last occasion. Mr. CRESSIVELL conducted the prosecution, and Mr. CLARKSON appeared for the defence. The evi dence was the same as on the former trial. The prisoner, on being called upon for his.de fence, handed in a written paper, in which he de clared he bad not the least recollection of the cir cumstances attending the dreadful affair. His inten tion was to shoot himself, for his life, of late, had become miserable : to carry this resolution into effect, he drank more than usual, that he might possess sufficient courage. With the unfortunate deceased he was on the most friendly terms, and [ever quarrelled with her; the thought of depriving her of life had never once entered his imagination.-- He trusted the Jury would take a favourable view of is case. Mr. CLARKSON' then called William Pearson, a journeyman tailor, who stated that he had known the prisoner for two years; for the last few months witness thought he had shown considerable symp toms of a disordered mind : he bad on one occasion attempted to destroy himself. On the day this lamentable transaction teak place, witness dined with the prisoner; his conduct on that day was most extraordinary : he talked in a wild incoherent manner, he told witness he had been reading in the newspapers that a gentleman had shot himself in Hyde Park, and said, " do you think if I was to shOot myself the newspapers would call me a respectably dressed gentleman ?" Witness always considered him' to be a good-natured kind-hearted young man : he drank more than lie was accus tomed to do en the day of the accident. Two other witnesses deposed to certain facts tending to show that the prisoner was at times in a disordered state of mind ; he used very frequently to say that he was tired of life, and would shoot him self. The prisoner had been drinking on the night in question, but not sufficient to make him drunk. Mr. Justice PARK summed up the case at very great length. His Lordship said the pri soner was indicted under an Act of Parlia ment passed during the last Sessions, which enacted that any person who should unlaw fully shoot at, or draw the trigger, or in any other manner attempt to discharge a gun or pistol, with latent to murder or do any bodily harm, should be deemed guilty of a capital felony. This Act in part altered what is generally called Lord Ellenborough's Act, which did not make the offence with which the prisoner was charged a capital crime; that Act only included persons that attempted to destroy life, with a sharp instrument. Before the passing of Lord Ellenborough's Act, about thirty years ago, if death did not ensue no person could be indicted capitally. His Lordship then made some remarks on the-at tempt of the witnesses to prove the prisoner was intoxicated ; but even if he was, it was no excuse in law; drunkenness never could be pleaded in ex tenuation of un offence, it generally aggravated it. The Jury consulted for a short time in the box,' and after an absence of two hours they returned into Court with a verdict of Guilty. Mr. Justice PARK—Thin was a most proper pro secution. John Osborne, aged about 40, a one-armed sailor, was indicted for stabbing, with intent to murder, Mary Murrell, on the 10th instant. A second count charged him with intent to disable her, and a third charged him with intent to do her some grievous bodily harm, the indicttnent being founded on the same Act oeParliament as the last case. Verdict* Not Guilty. NEW COURT. Charles Blades, (a young boy) a foreigner, was indicted for stealing a coat and other articles the property of Christopher Eylen, mate of a Norwegian vessel lying in the Thames. It appeared that the Captain of the ship_ seeing the boy wandering about the streets in great dis tress on Wednesday night, out of compassion took him on board, and the following morning, at an early hour, the boy quitted the ship ; shortly afterwards the property was missed. Search was made for the prisoner, and at the time he was taken into custody some of the articles were found in his 'possession. The prisoner said nothing in his defence. The Jury found him Guilty. Elizabeth Adams, a good•looking young woman, was indicted for stealing a necklace and other arti cles, the property of John 11. Trimmer, Esq. The prisoner was tried on Thursday last 'on an indict ment, in which her husband was included, when the Jail acquitted her, but found her husband guilty. Mr. CLARKSON stated the case for the prosecution during which the prisoner was seized with violent hysterics, and was obliged to be supported during the trial. It appeared that the prisoner was a ser vant in the family of Mr. Trimmer, who resides at Kingsbury ; her husband likewise was in the same service, but the fact of their being married was un known to the prosecutor, until Mrs. TriMmer die covered she was in the family way. Suspicions arising, the prisoner's box was searched, and the articles named in the indictment found. The Jury acquitted the prisoner. The prisoner, on leaving the bar, said Mr. Trim mer had not paid her wages. COMMON SERGEANT—We .have nothing to do with that ; you may think yourself very fortunate in obtaining your liberty. The following were convicted during the morning of larceny, viz. William Lee, aged 28 ; Thomas Petey, 22; William Ray, 18; Charles Butler, 17; Elizabeth Wetherstone, 45; and Sarah Smith, 36. The following were acquitted, Thomas Lee, George Harber, Abraham Tutlield, and William Stockdale. THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY.) HAY MARKETS.—( At per Load Lc 90 Trusses.) ' ST. JAMES'S.

The death of Sir W. Curtis has not been without its impression on that spot where he first earned his wealth and civic honours, although for many years past be has taken no active part in business, and only sr peered in the city as an occasional visitor. He died at 40 house at Ramsgate, on Saturday last. He was, we be lieve, only in his Tith year, though he is generally sup posed to have been much older. Fie was the senior mean . ber of the Court of Aldermen, and bore consequently the venerable title of " Father of the City." In the early plat et his life his habits were deemed so unfavourable to loop!" vity, that an insurance on his life was refused, it is said , by a Poard of Directors, all of whom Sir William has survived.
