A privateletter from Madrid, oldie 13th of July, says that Sir William A'Court has received iastructions to withdraw from Seville; and that Ms Government authorizes him to go to Cadiz,. if 'he believes that his presetice, there will be useful to the li • ff'rorn the Conititotionnell INTELLIGENOE FROM TUE FRONTIERS or SPAIN. [Extract from the Journal de Toulouse.l " Environs of la Sea, July 8. " It is stated that the Baron d'Eroles has quitted Berga to march to Cardona, the blockade of which has not yet been formed, and that he detaches 'a Itoyalist,battalion to be stationed be fore la Seu. _ . " Rotnagosa has fortified the walls of the town. The troops before that fortress still occupy the same positions. The Constitutionalists have for tified themselves at the village of Castel Ciutat, :to the rear of the- forts. Some Miquelets have pleaped from that quarter, where they were eau timed, and gone to.the neighbouring mountains, do doubt to rob passengers. " Since the arrest of the wives of the militia leen, the Commandant of the forts is more re served ; the bombs are not fixed in such quart— ties upon the town. " Last might 'mg men left-the-forts, taking the direction of Orgagne. No sooner had Romagosa been informed of it, than-he detached 400-men in pursuit of them. The motive of this sortie is not known, but it is not doubted they will be at tacked, and their return to the forts be rendeved impossible. " A Captain in the corps of Tarragona, wound ed in the affair of the Tath, is dead of his wounds, in Andorre, at the village of-St. Jouliu, whether he was conveyed after the action." [Extract from the Journal de Perpignan.l PERPIGNAN, JULY 12.—The following Order of the-Day has been published in the Journal of this town ORDER,OF THE DAY.. " The Lieutenant-General wished to allow the termination t-3f the incorporation of the Veterans in the 51st regiment of the line before he addressed them, for the purpose of, convincing them that the sacrifice exacted from them by the public inte rest will not be of long duration, and to give them the certainty, that the Government, with regard to,theea, willfultil with reli gious exactness the guarantees which the laws. and its promises give them. " The Veterans may he convinced that mother service will he required of them than that to which they are legally liable ; they will act,, therefore, as-brave and loyal soldiers, and they maybe persuaded that they,will be treated with the same in dulgence and the same paternal care as their young comrades. The Lieutenant-General is eager to believe, that, once en lightened as to their situation, the habit which they, have already acquired in service will be stilLacted upon of aft*Ording to young soldiers -the example of good discipline, and that those who have lent an car to the dangerous councils of ma lignity will feel all their fault, and. atone by a conduct exempt trout reproach, for an error which, as a temporary one, may . be forgotten, but which, if prolonged, will call for ail,the severity of justice. The Lieutenant-General, who, in-:concert with the admi nistration of the corps, is anxiously occupied in sending to the veterans all the military effects which belong to them, flatters himself that they will have the merit of associating with him, who is one of them • in. the success of our arms, and that in. future he shall only ;lave advantageous reports to make collie Minister of War respecting., the veterans of the 51st regiment of the line.

" PERVIGNAN, JULY 12.—At the time the Marshal was employed in executing his move ment for besieging. Barcelona, Milans and Llobera left the city and took up a position to enable them to hold tho .Reevt`riny were, .on the nTl7 . iii vranca de Panadel. It is said that their troops occupy Molins.de ltey. General Donna dieu has matched from Alanresa, to occupy that position. " It is presumed that the enemy will not re main at Molina del Rey, but will retire in the mountains of Panadel ; and that at this moment our line incloses Ba rcelona, between the Llobregat and the river Bests. " Lieut.-Gen. Curial occupiesliadelotta, where the left of his division is supported by the brigade of Gen. tie Vence,. and extending, his right, he occupies the villages of St. Andre and St. Adrien. —lf this line is well guarded, there can be no communication with Barcelona on the land side, er.ccpt by the very painful and difficult road of Castelo.de Sels,, along the sea coast. " Lieut.-G en. St. Priest arrived yesterday from the army of Catalonia, and set out this morning ; it is believed he will proceed to Montpellier, before going to his new post. No siege artillery have yet gone from. hence —5,000 bombs from Port-Vendres have arrived at Matero." • PAnts,J ILL Y 20.—M4ny personshave witnessed. with surprise the coudenittation pronounced upon oueof the most eloquent and pure members of our junior bar, on the occasion of the defence of Kcechlio. This surprise is not confined to the circle of one political.opinion, it is partici. pied in by men of opposite opinions. As Ma gistrates .can have no other object than truth and justice, they will doubtless be glad to have submitted to them, for the interest of both, those reflections which have reached us from 'different sides, upon' this subject. When we speak of the right of defence, the idea which we attach altogether to this term is giat 9f absolute liberty on the part of the accus ed to say all that he thinks useful to Ids justifi cation. It is thus it was understood by the an ;lents, whose authority is so often invoked at the 'far; it is thus it is at this moment understood by the ,English, who thoroughly understand ju. diCial guarantees. Never amongst them has it been said that the defender of an accused ought to be disturbed' in his defence, although the li cense of pleading goes in England much further than amongst us. In fact, the right of free defence is founded in nature and reason. in nature, the efforts made by an individual in danger for his preservation, have always been regarded as innocent. In rea son, the accused has not chosen his situation, it as not he who demands to be constrained to de fend himself, and if his words make any wounds or cause any damage, he cannot be responsible for blows which his aims in order to repel an ac cusation which he-has not solicited. There is no trial but when the accused has Teen heard in his defence; and there is uo de. fence when the accused cannot present with en.l tire freedom, either by himself or another, all his means of justification. It is not for the vehemence of his expessions that M. Barthe has incurred the severity of the Court. No reproach on this subject was ad dressed to him either (luring or after his pleading, and we believe even to-have heard it said.at the Public Ministry, that it was less on account of words than things that the defence was offensive. It is therefore in the facts that. the. crime of the defence consists. The Journal de Perpignan of the 12th says, intelligence had been received, that Mina had died in consequence of an hemorrage, but neither the official reports nor the private letters of a more recent date mention such an event. (From the Journal.iles Debate). • FRANKIORT, JULY. 15.—The Diet has ad journed till the 27th of November. Several Plenipotentiaries are preparing to set out to pro fit by the- recess,.. which will last nearly four 'months. The Baron de Munch, the President, set out yesterday to make a tour in the Ithingau ; he will proceed to Enis, and then pass through here to go to Bohemia, from. whence- he will pro. ceed to Vienna. (Fran the Quotidienne. PARIS, JULY 20.—The Constitutionnel speaks in the most moving terms of the state of health of our troops—" mang sick in the hospitukmany sick in. the 12th Light." This word "- sick" is re peated four or five times iu six lines. We may refer the Constitutionnel or its credulous readers to the statement we published in the Quotidienne of the I€2th instant, but we may also cite our correspondence from Perpignan, which says— " The heat, although a little late, is not the less excessive; our army, however, has but fete sick." [Prom the Courier Francais.] PARIS, JULY '2o.—The arrOt of the Cour Royale, which has suspended M. Berate from his functions for a month, presents an uncommon and almost unique example of a punishment in- , flicted - upon an advocate without previous notice from the President. The pleading of M. Berths: was listened to by the Court with a sus tained interest, and with at solemn atten tion. This silence appeared to him a tacit approbation of his system of defence, espe cially when he saw the Court presided over by M. Seguier, who to the habit of presiding joins a true respect for the right of defence. Such was the importance of the subject treated of by the orator—such the ascendancy of his talents that no notice of interruption was given to him, and the organ of the public Ministry only required against him the penalties of discipline, after hav ing had, as it may be said, time to escape from the charm with which M., Barthe had entranced his auditors.. This circumstance is a splendid homage rendered to the eloquence of M. Liarthe, but we do not think it ought to make a prece dent to employ against advocates such renalties without those salutary notices, which are one of the best rights attached to the Presidency, and which almost always prevent the neuesslty of in flicting the penalties. ft was stated positively yesterday, that M. do \Vangenheim, the Wurtemberg Minister at the Diet of Frankfort, has been recalled. It is known that M. de Wangenheim had so often been the organ of the Representatives of this Govertnitante nt respecting the policy of the great Powets, I r OppOSIIIOO he e A . t.''ates of Germany, 0 - Milian% MAT Clyt fire Fain and which recently expressed, respecting the sup. pression of the German Observer,. an opinion quite different to that of the Cabinet of Vienna. His recall, joined to that of the Ambassadors of the Three Great Powers accredited at Stuttprd, natty give an idea of the direction newly impressed upon the policy of these three Powers, and the situation to which the Princes of the secondary States of Germany are reduced. M. Legracieux, the responsible Editor of the' Courier Francais, set out yesterday for Macon, in consequence of a notice to him of a judgment by default of the Correctional Tribunal orfour nes, which condemns him to three mouths irupri sonment, and a fine of 3,500 francs. [From the Emile.] The movement just made by the army, by closing the line near Barcelona, appears to have. Jettreeined Mina to quit hastily the village of Sans, where his illness compelled Mtn to tarry, and to proceed to shut himself up in the capital of Catalonia, which Milans has left, and di rected his march towards the vast plains of Tar rag:ma. ' A superior Employe ht the Commissariat De partment was arrested at Perpignan on the Bth instant, and conducted by a detachment of gee darmes to the head-quarters of the 4th corps. A riot took place at the theatre of Beauvais on the iotte ult. during the performance of the tragedy of Regulus.--The authorities interfered, caused the audience to withdraw, and closed the theatre. CAMP BEFORE ST. SERASTIAS, JULY 10.--We• gociations have been entered upon ; they are, however,, broken oft. The garrison would have given up the fortress, but they wished to march out with the honours of war. The Major-Gene ral commanding the blockade replied, that he would take possession of the fortress, and that the garrison should be prisoners. Since yesterday the Constitutionalists have fired seve ral cannon and vollies of musketry, but they consume their ammunition uselessly. The sth Light Regiment, commanded by M. Rapatel, will leave . the blockading camp to-morrow, and will be replaced by the 19th Regiment, which we expect to join us. This morn ing about fifteen inhabitants left the town, and they announce that more will follow to-moi. row ; but an order of strict blockade has just been issued, informing the troops that us the ne goelations urn broken nfr, no inhabitants of, St. Sebastian, of whatever age or sex, are to be re ceived at the advanced post, and that if they present themselves they will be sent back, or left on the glacis. Deserters, in uniform or dis guise, will alone be suffered to come over. MADRID, JULY 1/.—The indefatigable Merino arrived at Caceres on the 4th, on his return from the brilliant expedition which he undertook on leaving, -this capital on the 20th'of last month: He has not ill employed his time during these 14 days past, for he has delivered a great portion of Estremadura from the Constitutionalists, obliging the detachment which left Badajoz . to seek prq tection under the batteries of the fortress. He has killed many of their men, taken a piece of cannon, together with muskets and ammunition, and made a great number of prisoners. G It E Ec E. FitANKyortT, Jury 15.—. The very latest. ac counts from Greece say-- ' 4 -The insurrection of the inhabitants of the coast. of. Thessaly, which ,has been, brought about exactly at, this. moment with great address,. by Greek agents, must have important consequences. It began in the moon ,tain, known by. the name of the Chain of Olym-. ..pus,and has spread southward as far as Alassona. However, the centre of the insurrection. is Plata moire,. this. being the point from which communi cations may be most easily kept, up with the island and Monte Santo.. To the south, all the islands have taken arms as far as Lake Barla and the- promontory of St. George, near the Gulf of Vole ; and in the north little corps of insurgents have posted themselves in the mountains. of Vo luzza, Servia, and Demenizza, and threaten the road which leads from Macedonia to Larissa. Mehmed Pectin, seeing the dangerous conse quences of this insurrection to the Turks in Thes stay, immediately sent troops to Olympus to quell it, and the insurgents, if left to themselves, must soon be overcome ;- but the affair has taken quite another turn, Odysseus having taken the opportunity to commence offensive operations against Thessaly, as he had before resolved to do. Having passed the winter and spring at .Athens,, which he has fortified with care, 'he left that city hr the middle of May, a sufficient garrison. remaining in the Acropolis, which is in a_ condition to stand a long siege, and to protest against a Coy de main the city, which is sur e rounded with entrenchments and a strong wall. Odysseus, at the head of 8,000 men, has ad vanced by Marathon, where he stopped some. days, towards Bodonizza. Other corps of inha bitants, trained to arms, have advanced towards Thermopylw, under Zongos, Dyvonneotys, and. other leaders. This movement bad caused the speedy retreat Gr the Turks, who., had. hitherto advanced : they have evacuated, all their 141- vanced positions, and, retreated towards Larissa,. where Mehmed Paella has.. concentrated all his troops, having recalled even .the corps which he had detached towards Olympus. Odysseus in,_ tended to proceed towards the Peneus and attack the Turks, who. are there assembled to the num ber of '20,000 men. But it is now said that a considerable corps of Alhanians) which the Paella • of Scutari has collected, and at the head of which. he has at length ,pat himself,.though he before refused, is. ou, the march by way, of Joannina : towards Venens; while a very. strong Turkish corps, from. Adrianople, marches towards, the same point, if these two last circumstances are true, Odysseus must .remain on the defensive, occupy the mountains,, and suspend his march, to the Peneus."

COURT OF CHANCERY, JULY ; 22, MURRAY v. DUDDALE. Mr. S&L inwEL:t. moved for an injunction to .restrain the de fendant from invading the e9pyright of a poem , entitled Beppu, published by. Mr. Murray, in 1817; the defendant having put out an edition of the work at Is., which was .considerably below the publishing price. The poem was the work of Lord Byron but though it was a work of a whimsical nature, it contained nothing against public morals, as had been alleged against other writings.by the same author, to which the Court had, upon that account, refused protection. The LORD CuaNcELLoa. asked, if there was any thing oLnoxious in the book. Mr. SIIADWELL said that there was not ; it was throughout mere fun. . The Lonn CHANCELLOR said, that if he did-,grunt an in. junction, it must be upon the supposition that there was nothing in the work of an objectionable nature. There had been a , great many remarks nuttle. upon the line of Conduct. he had pursued with respect to questieus of this nature. lie Was old, enough to remember the refusal of the Courts, to protect Dr. Priestley, from the destruction of some literary property, which consisted of works proved before the Court tp he of an objectionable kind. The rule laid.down at that time was, that the law could gi.ve no protection to works written against the morals and religion of the country. He hid then the. honour to enjoy the intimaty of Many dignitaries and eminent professors of the law, all of whom concurred in opinion as to the propriety of the judgment—that in the as of a work, for Court would n o t a llow it urts would give no..daniages, this pirating which. the lower Po protection. He was aware of the ob. jections taken on the other side, that the refusal of the injunc tion was the most effectual - way of disseminating the work itself: but it 'must be remembered that the Court had no criminal. jurisdiction in casesof this nature, and-that if the work were . ,really criminal, the publication of it could not, be stopped here, hut it must be done in another way. In the next place he did nut conceive it to be his duty to alter the law where it had been settled wi t h out question, for a considerable time past. That waa an opinion which he could not consent to abandon till. the Legislature should think fit to alter the law, itself. - Mr. SUADWEL L, said, that there was nothing in the book of a nature whi c h being extend e d• to i t . couldirrevent the protection. of the Court froM, The Lona CHANCELLOR said, on that supposition he would allow• the injttriction, and ordered that it should be served immediately, VICE.CHANCELLOR'S COURT,'JvLY CHANCERY REPORTS. vxBEY v. SWEET AND PARRY:. 7) Mr. BEAMES addressed his Hosouit soon after he had taken his seat, and stated that he was instructed to inove for an injuction in this case, in which Mr. Francia Vemey was the plaintiff; a gentleman who, previous to the year 1817, had em. ployed considerable time in reporting cases in Chancery. These reports he hapublislied, among them was the 14th volume, comprising three parts. The copyright of the first of these parts the plaintiff had sold, but had reserved the two latter for himself. The Bill, which was supported by affidavit, went on to state, that the defendants, under pretence of publishing ari ++ Abridgment of Chan cer y Reports, had under that title, published the work which the plaintiff considered as a direct piracy of his own. The plaintifFluid coinpared the work with the 12th volume of his own reports, and he was of opi. nion that the work was a direct infringement of his copyright. The affidavit proceeded to allege, that all the statements of the case in his own work, corresponded with the statements con. tamed in the " Abridgment," and the judgments were given verbatim, with th e eaception that they were written in the third, The VICE-CIIANCELLon..—Take instead of the first p erson . your injunction. Mr. BEANcEs.--The Court is aware that the injunction pro. ceeds not only ag a i nst t h e pu bli s h er , b u t also against the gen. tlemen in whose name the work is published. The VICE-CIIANCELLOR.—Give personal notice imme diately, in order that the defendants may be enabled to move to dissolve the injunction next seal. Mr. 11EastEs reminded his Honour that the seal was the day afterto.inOricow. The.Vicv-CiraxcEm.on.--Let notice be giyen, and let it br undarstnod that on application the Court wi4 . appoint an ,early day for hearing the merits of the case. We have in our preceding columns, given ex tracts from the French and German Papers re. ceived since our last. The intelligence from Spain iu these, papers is unimportant; and strong hopes are entertained that the silence of the ag gressors is owing to their having none but un pleasant facts to disclose. In, our extract from the Morning Chronicle of this day (see fourth page), our Readers will find the substance of an account brought by a vessel from Gibraltar, which strengthens so►rte previous rumours of suc cesses having been obtained by the Constitution alists in the neighbourhood of Seville and Cadiz. The. German. Papers abundantly confirm. all the preceding statements which represented the Greeks as having made great preparations for the approaching shock, of the Ottomans. It now, appears that an opportune and extensive insur rection, doubtless fomented by Greek agents,. has broken out in Thessaly. Onrsscus, at the head-of eight thousand men, and, supported by, other armed bodies, had immediately ad vanced for the purpose, of supporting the in surrection ; and the Turks had in consequence evacuated all, their advanced positions, and re treated to Larissa. Onyssces intended to pro. ceed, towards the. Peneus, with the view of at. tacking the Barbarians, unless their present force of o,ooo,men should be strengthened by large reinforcements.. Even. the Journal des Debuts admits that we have, by our quotations from , the Speech of the King, of. FRANge, and by. a reference to facts of public notoriety, completely refuted that as sumption of the celebrated Russian Note, in which it is indecently asserted that the sole ob ject of the Invasion of Spain was the restoration of France herself to tranquillity. But neither the Journal des Debuts, nor the French Go. vernment, nor its literary advocates in this or .any other country, have as yet stated distinctly either the motives or the objects of the war,--or if they have sometimes seemed to advance some thing like a definite ground of offence, it has uni formly been annihilated by the statement, from the same quarters, of some other ground for the aggression, utterly inconsistent with and subver sive of the first. As nearly four months have now elapsed since the passage of the Bides sea, it is surely full time that France should at tempt to make out her case against Spain, and by a plain and intelligilile statement of her grievances, previous to her own manifestations of hostility at Paris, at. Vienna, and at Verona, endeavour to offer some justification of her violence, to the common sense of mankind, and to those Govern ments which have withheld their sanction from that act of military aggression in the perpetra tion of which she is still engaged. We should be glad to see this defence, so necessary for the satisfaction of Europe, and for the rescue of France from the infamy with which she seems at present to be overwhelmed, undertaken by the Journal des DObats, after the utter failure of the zealous advocate for the Holy Alliance at St, Petersburg!). The Expresses from Paris this morning have brought the French Funds at 90f. 60c. We have given insertion to a curious letter from a Correspondent, on the subject of the al leged differences in the Cabinet, and of the ru mours which have been for some time circulated respecting a probable change in the Ministry. But although we ourselves happoed to observe the very circumstance stated by our Correspon dent as having occurred in the House of Lords, and although it struck us at the time as some wrhat singular, yet we by nq means agree with our Correspondent in the large and Important, inference which he thinks proper to draw from a fact so " trilling and unimportant in itself."—We confess that we have no further knowledge on the subject than the rest of the public ; and indeed we cannot feel regret at being ignorant of supposed facts, which perhaps have no real existence, and are merely the idle creations of disappoint ment and discontent.—Certainly we may say this much, as our firm conviction, that in the pre sent state of the public feeling of this country, it. would be found impossible to carry on the busi ness of the Government without having such men in the Cabinet as the Earl of LIVEUPOOI. and Mr. CANNING ; and that on the other hand the uisters nho are supposed (gratuitously, we must presume), to differ from them occasionally in sentiment, are not less securely established in tie confidence both of the Sovereign and of the Country. Mn. OWEN OF NEW LANARK.—This inde -fatigable Philanthropist, besides being actively - engaged in the completion of the arrangements for the speedy erection of one of his pro jected villages at Motherwell in Lancashire, has, as will be seen by a notice in our present paper, requested another public meeting for the develope rnent of the means by which he proposes to cultivate the rich resources of Ireland, and to restore tran quillity and peace to that distracted country. Whatever differences of opinion may exist as to Mr. OWEN'S philosophy, and as to some of his peculiar views respecting education, we have met with no persons, except some of the wild visionaries in Political Economy, who are not ready to admit, after sufficient examination, that his arrangements are the best calculated that have ever been devised, or probably can be de vised, for giving comfort and abundance to the working classes, and for opening a new, profit able, safe, and almost boundless course for the employment and investment of capital. .

Mr. LUSIIINGTON officiated for Sir ROBERT PRESTON, who was unavoidably absent. A letter was received yesterday from a pas senger on board the Princess of Saxe Cobourg, which sailed from Gibraltar on the sth inst., but is now performing quarantine in Standgate Creek. It states, that on the morning of quitting Gibral tar, an express arrived from Cadiz, dispatched on the preceding day, with intelligence that the French division, consisting of 8,000 men, which had advanced on that plac e w ith t h e expectation of a speedy surrender, had sudd en l y retreate d and taken up a position at Xeres, where the Spanish corps were preparing to attack them.
