FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. FRENCH PAPERS. (From the Gazetate de France, Jan. la.) " Palmy JAN. 12.—We have received by express the Austrian Observer of the 4th instant. In con sequence of the energetic measures taken by the Allied Admirals, the Greek Government has issued two declarations against piracy; the first of which prohibits, under severe penalties, all sorts of piracy, and declares that the Prize Court has in future to decide upon none excepting the cases of ships that have violated the blockade. In the second aeclara tion,the Greek Government expresses its indignation against piracy, and announces that it has sent Captain Carpirissy with ships of war and forces to the Archi pektgo to pursue the pirates, and at the same time requests the Admirals of the Allies to second its efforts. " Amounts received from Corfu say, that Lord Cochrane's schooner, the Unicorn, had arrived at T .Poros, and a rep or t was i mme di ate l y sprea d t h at 4,..0rd Cochrane had again entered the service of England. It is certain that the whole crew of the Unicorn consists of Englishmen. " CONSTANTINOPLE, DEC. 12.—The general opi nion of the Divan appears to be, that the Courts of England and France will disapprove of the depar ture of their Ambassadors, and that no rupture is to be feared with those Powers, even though they should not have direct representatives at Constan tinople. " The affair at Navariu does not appear to have enlightened the Turkish policy, and the circumazance that no diplomatic answer has yet been made to the letter of the Grand Vizier, leaves the Porte uncer tain with respect to the future. " The Grand Vizier and the Mufti seem, how ever, not to deceive themselves respecting the pre sent situation of affairs, and neglect nothing to be ready against every event. While the first is col lecting with indefatigable zeal the means of defence, the second endeavours to raise the spirit of the na tion. A Hatti Scherif of the Sultan not only orders the whole line of the Danube to be placed in a state of defence, but also the islands of Tenedos, Imbro, and Samothrace, to be fortified, the port of Enos to be provided with all kinds of military stores, and furnaces for heating balls to be erected in the bat teries. Particular injunctions have teen given to the commanders of Varna, Burgas, =I Vasilico, the landing-places on the coast of the Black Sea, to neglect nothing to frustrate every attempt of the enemy. " A pastoral letter of the Mufti, orders public prayers for the preservation of general peace, but at the same time invites all believers to defend Isla mism, in case it should be threatened by the Chris tian powers, and orders military exercises. After a great Council which was held yesterday at the Mufti's and at which the Grand Vizir, the Captain Pasha, and the Reis Effendi were present, it is said that notice Was sent to 'all the Pashas, that in case the Porte should be compelled to come to hostilities with the European Powers, they were to remain strictly on thedefensive. Conformably to this view, no attempt was to be madeupon Moldavia and Wala chia, but any attack which should come from that side is to be repulsed upon the Danube. " CONSTANTINOPLE, DSC. 12.—1 n the capital all is preparation for battle. The Chiefs of Romelia have arrived here, and have each received a pelisse of honour. A Grand Council was held yesterday, at the house of the Mufti, at the close of which a num her of Tartars were despatched to the fortresses of the Danube, with orders, the nature of which has not transpired. " The young Turks, of all classes, are exercising themselves in the use of arms in the European man ner. The enthusiasm for the Sultan has risen to the highest pitch since the departure of the Ambas sadors. A finnan, whickhas :been .addressied to alt the regular' co?the"N3rilers* that all Christians who may berolig- to ;hem, officers, 'physicians, func tionaries,-&e. may enjoy, without molestation, the observances of their religion, according to its rites. There have already been built in the barracks of Constantinople and Adrianople chapels, in which divine service is to be celebrated every Sunday by Christian Ministers. • " We learn froM Scio,thet on the 20th of No vember, the citadel was hard pressed by Fabvier, who hiel even opened the trenches. Sixty Greek horsemen had arrived, the remnant of two squadrons of .regular cavalry formerly raised by Regnault St. Jean d'Angely.' —Augtburgh Gazette. " SMYRNA DEC. 25.--Th e ' O r i e nt a l Sp ec t a t or o f the Ist of December- :contains the following news from the island of Naxos, dated Nov. 23 :-- `" Lord Cochrane came here in the course of last month, and sought to persuade the Primate of the Maki that the Allied Powers intended again to subject them to the Turkish yoke, since, in their letters addressed to the Commission of the Govern ment, they threatened to put under sequestration every corsair cruising beyond the limits which they had fixed. Subsequently, relying on the extraordi nary and unconstitutional powers confided to him, he recommended the islands to put themselves under the protection of the Order of St. John, and to hoist the flag of that Order. The most clear-sighted Greeks having foreseen the consequences, and the object of this schism, he thought it right, by the following letter • addressed to, his nephew Gordon, whom be had left Govertior . of . the island, to vindi cate himself from the attacks of which he had be come the object. " On board the Hellas, Oct. " The interpretations which the demogerontes (elders of the people) of Naxos have given to any words, and what they have published, is very far from being conformable to the truth. They have stated me to have recommended, that the islands should separate themselves from the other Greeks ; the truth is, that in speaking of the position of these islands, I made the remark, that as the interdictions of the Admirals prevented the Greek fleet from protecting the Islands, the inhabitants ought to take the necessary measures for providing for their own security, and especially to he on their guard against again falling under the yoke of the Mu,sulmans, and, consequently, to hoist a Christian flag rather than a Malinmetan one. Such was my opinion, and if it have been otherwise interpreted, it can only be a misrepresentation or inaccurate report of my words. ,(Signed) "‘ COCHRANE." (From the Constilutionnel.) PARIS, JAN. 12 . — EMBARRASSMENT OF THE ATI NISTRY.—The Ministry is seeking to recruit its forces among honourable men, am! it finds that op position it might expect. An appointment, as Maitre des Requetcs, aud the direction de la Li brairic, have been offered to M. Villemain, who re fused the offer. If. the Minister who made the pro posal, had considered the situation of M. Villemain, he would have been spared the pain of a refusal. This Professor, who promised to be a distinguished orator, was dismissed in a most brutal manner by the Ad ministration, of which the Minister of the Interior was .a member. For the disgrace inflicted by power be found a solace in public approbation. How could it be supposed that M. Villemain would change this enviable lot, to be placed on a level with Mllf. flois berbrand and Capelle, those faithful instruments of M. de Corbieres and the Congregatio n ? Could M. Villethain sit in Council with MM. Delavau and de Rennevelle, with Saint Chamans and Fenilly, whose conduct and opinions are diametrically op pe!-ed to his ? There are some appearances which um hottest man cannot violate. When the Ministry shall be composed entirely of persons who hare given proofs of their attachment to public liberty, they will easily find co-operators and supporters. Till then they will remain isolated. - It has been reported Nvithin this day or two, that the Gazette de France meant to attack the New Ministry, and we believe it; for yesterday evening it pronounced an eulogium on them, and promised them the support of all the Congregations who sup ported the Old Administration. It is impossible to injure the successors of M. de Villele more effec tually, and these caresses of the Gazette are jesuiti cal ; they cajole an enemy the better to destroy him. The habitual interpreter of the Zht. n t Rouge has al ready praised the new Prefect of Police, as the only yr -d ~~. j'. ~~ a ~ ~.,~~ 4I person Whose election could console the Royalists for the loss of M. Delavau. We must suppose, ac cording to the noble speech of M. de Belleyme to his employes, that he must resent this offence; and we hope that this outrage will be resented by such of the New Ministers as do not consider themselves the grateful continuators of the defunct Triumvirate. Yesterday M. Francois de Neuf-Chateau died at Paris, at an advanced age. SMYRNA, DEC. 3.—Although the news from Con stantinople is not satisfactory, still the greatest tranquillity exists in the above capital. The 27th November, the French frigate Armide, and the English frigate Dryad, of 42 guns, left for the Dardanelles, where the French fri gate Lionne had been at anchor for some time past, to re ceive the English and French Ambassadors. The news from Alexandria is of the 10th November, which is not favourable to the interest of the European commerce. CORFU, DEC. 1 3.—Great -preparations are making to fortify the forts of this town, and above all, the ancient fort, as well as the fortifications of the Isle of Vido, oppo site to Corfu. Six hundred ►nen are employed daily at the above works. LEGHORN, DEC. 27.—We learn by accounts from Egiva, that Ibraham Paella, after the destruction of his fleet, sent to propose to the Greek Government to cede to him the four forts in the Peloponesus, should they wish to come to any terms with him ; as well as Grambousse, and the whole island of Candia. The moment the Greek Go vernment heard of this proposition, they answered him by stating, that the Greek Government had formed a Go vernment to extend their territories, and not diminish it. Accounts from Zante state, that Ibrahim Pacha cannot extend his expedition in the interior of tlae Peloponesus, owing to the rigour of the season. This army begins to fall short of provisions. MADRID, DEC. 31.—According to accounts that may be depended on, they have made use of the State Revenue of about 900 millions of reals, and the expenses do not ex ceed 800 millions ; this causes great embarrassment in the Treasury, several important bills not being honoured. The number of robberies augment daily; the Courier from Andalusia was robbed near Valencia of 150,000 francs. VIENNA, DEC. 31.—The Emperor of Austria has ap pointed Prince Philip of Hesse, to be Commander- in- Chief of Galicia.

We understand that in consequence of Mr. GREVILLB'S indisposition, Mr. BULLER was sent for to Andover at a late hour last night, to attend a Council this day at Windsor, where it is presumed that the arrangements for a new Administration will be laid before his MAJESTY. The Gazette de France of Sunday, with the Paris Papers of Saturday, have been received. We are happy to perceive that the Greek Go vernment is proceeding in earnest to second the -views of the Allied Admirals for the suppression of piracy. Two declarations have been issued, prohibiting, under severe penalties, all sorts of piracy, and expressing in strong terms the indig nation of the Government on the subject. Let the Greeks but persevere in this correct line of policy, and they will gain the esteem of civilized nations while they secure the independence of their country. They have hardly yet had breathing time to collect their resources, far less to consolidate their Government. It was, there fore, too much to expect consistency of conduct or unity of purpose from a people divided by so many petty jealousies, civil discords, and other evils inseparable from a state of internal commo tion and external invasion. When the Greeks really begin to experience the benefits resulting from order, they will not fail, like other nations, to pursue it for its own advantages. The SULTAN is indefatigable in adopting measures of defence in case of warlike operations ; but the general opinion of the Divan appears to be that no rupture will take place, and that the Allied Courts will disapprove of the de parture of their Ambassadors. In conformity with the spirit of improvement which the SULTAN is anxious to infuse into his own institutions, he gives indications of a becoming respect for the institutions of others. Accordingly a firman has been addressed to all the regular corps, ordering that all Christians who may belong to them, officers, physicians, functionaries, &c. may enjoy, Without molestation, the observances of their reli gion, according to its rites. There have already been b u il t i n t h e b arrac k s o f C onstantinople and Adrian op l e, Chapels, in which Divine Service is to be celebrated every Sunday by Christian Mi nister• As their religion is among the last thi ngs in which Mahometans begin to be li beral, we may hail this concession as the dawn of mental improvemext, which may in due time dissipate the clouds of superstition that have so long overshadowed the regions of the East. When people become tolerant to the supposed prejudices of their neighbours, it is strong pre sumptive proof that they are not insensible to their own. The Parisian Journals already anticipate the Due. Extracts will be found in another column elligence. —The French officer cut down one of the pirates, and then threw fire into the powder magazine, so that the ship blew up ; 62 of the Greek pirates perished on this occasion, and two of the Frenchmen saved them selves upon a plank. The French Consul here has already sent a person to give some assistance to the two French men who were saved. (The remainder of the letter from Syra relates to the continued plundering of all ships which fall into the bands of the pirates.) VIENNA, JAN. 3. Metalliques, 88 7-16 ; Bank Shares, 1030. ROME, DEC. 29. In a preceding letter I mentioned the arrest of Father• D'Alvarez, confessor to the late Queen of Spain. Since the death of her Majesty this man lived here quite alone, excluded from society and connections of every kind, and lived upon his pension in such retirement that the public had wholly forgotten him, till a report was suddenly spread that he had been arrested at the desire of the Spanish Court, conveyed to Civita Vecchia, put on board a ship that had arrived there, and sent to Spain. This report pro ving to be true, our newspapers could not find any but poli tical reasons for so extraordinary a circumstance ; some fancied that Father Alvarez was accused of being a Con stitutionalist, others that he was a Carlist. Within these few days another report has gained ground which is more singular than the preceding, but calculated to excite great interest. It is affirmed that the late Queen a short time before her death made a solemn disclosure to Father Alvarez, which she confirmed by taking the sa crament, and by a document written by her own hand.— It is added, that Father Alvarez, after having long observed the strictest silence with respect to this secret, had at length mentioned it to one of his friends, likewise a Spanish Priest, and the latter immediately gave information of it to the Spanish Cabinet, which led to the arrest and giving up of Father Alvarez. This is the story, I cannot affirm what truth there may be in it, or whether the differences which have arisen between the two Courts are founded upon the appointment of Bishops for the American Provinees, or in the original refusal of the Popish Court to give up Father Alvarez ; but it is certain that the relations between the two Cabinets are by no means of an amicable nature. No betly now believes that the Marquess de Labrador, lately appointed Spanish Ambassador to the Roman Court, and who had been every moment expected at Rome, will now come—nay, the preparations which were making in the Hotel of the Spanish Legation for his reception, have been suspended. Gibraltar Chronicles of the 27th ult. have been received : their contents are extremely un- important. Accounts from Toulon state that three bomb vessels are constructing there, and eight others at Brest, L'Orient, and Cherbourg, which are for an expedition against Algiers. The frigate, Fleur-de-Lis, has sailed to join the division which blockades Algiers, and tho frigate Fiore, from Brest, is destined for the same Port. The only ship of the line getting ready in the above of 74 gu ns . Port is th e Vill e de Marseilles, The second irruption of the Thames into the Tunnel has given rise to an apprehension that this national undertaking will be discontinued, not from any doubt of the practicability of the measure, but for want of funds to carry i t on . We sin cere l y trust t hi s not be the case. In all gr ea t un d erta ki ngs t h e diffi cu lti es are. i n pro portion to th e magn i tu d e o f th e design, and the utility of the object in view. The projectors of the Tunnel must therefore have contemplated the possibility, nay, the probability of such accidents as have taken place. Where then is the reason for alarm from accidents which they must have foreseen, and for the occurrence of whi c h they downfall of the new Ministry, because its mem bers are not sufficiently identified with the con tending parties who at present divide the strength of the Chambers. By the Brussels Papers, to the 13th instant, it appears that the war in Batavia was likely to be resumed, in consequence of the negociations with the insurgents having terminated without a satisfactory result. The Dutch were, however, preparing to recommence offensive operations with vigour, in consequence of the reinforcement received by the Waterloo. According to accounts from Warsaw, it ap pears that the Polish army, though not bound to serve out of the kingdom, is willing to march against the Turks, if necessary, hoping thereby to facilitate the restoration of Poland as an In dependent State. The hope is vain. The in dependence of Poland is far more likely to be vindicated by, the army remaining at home than by leaving their country. The following are ex tracts : WARSAW, DEC. 10.—By our Constitution, the Polish army is not bound to serve out of the kingdom, but the troops have solicited, as a favour, permission to take part in the war which is preparing against the enemies of Christen dom. They have been the more eager in this request, because the issue of this war might offer a chance for the restoration of Poland as an Independent State. BRUSSELS, JAN. 11.—The Prussian State Gazette says, that the Divan at Constantinople was engaged, after the departure of the three Ambassadors, in drawing up a Manifesto. Accounts from Wallachia, of the 19th December, say every thing announces war. The Russian armies are ready to march. M. Aquena, the Austrian Agent, has sent orders to the shepherds of Transylvania, who drive their flocks to graze in the plains of Wallachia, to quit the banks of the Danube, and return to their own country. Military duty is done at Bucharest by the armed inha bitants, and the posts are every where doubled. Fifty Hungarian water carriers have been transformed into Austrian soldiers, to protect the houses and shops of the subjects of the Emperor. We hear from Hermanstadt that the number of Austrian troops in Transylvania and the Bannat is daily increasing. It is announced officially, that the next sitting of the Second Chamber of the States General is fixed for the 16th inst. Madras Papers to the end of August have been received, but they contain no political in- We received this morning the Allgemeine Zeitung of the Bth inst., from which we extract the following TRIESTE, JAN. 1. A letter from Syra of the 13th of December, received here, is to the following effect. We have here but little news that can be depended on, hut reports in abundance. It is said that the English and Russian Admirals had pro posed to Ibrahim Pacha, to convey him and his troops to Alexandria, and that he appeared willing to consent to it. It is said that Mavrocordato will be President if Greece, instead of Count Capo d'lstria. It is said that an Imperial Austrian schooner, which went to Scio, on accoant of the insults offered to the Austrian Consul at that place, had not only been kept off from the shore by the fire of the Greeks, but had even been obliged ta.eut her cables. Lastly we have the following accounts from Nasia. A French corvette bad taken the piratical schooner, belonging to Tsideri, and because it was not furnished with papers from the Greek Government, an officer and 15 men were sent 'on board, who took it to Milo. The schooner wu driven trj , a storm to the island of Astrafaglin, and where it anchored. There it was suddenly attacked by two mistics, who treated the French in a cruel manner. It is stated in a letter from Barcelona of the Bth January, that the army of Catalonia would have been no more wanting, as the band of in surgents were dispersed, and the Army of Ob servation would also be disbanded ; but the rising of new bands has not permitted this measure to be put in force. A corps of 600 men has proclaimed, at Abisbal, CHARLES V. King of Spain. In Arragon there is also another considerable corps, but with the exception of these, all the other bands are insignificant. THE FUNDS-(THIS DAY). CITY, Try Ears to' Caeca. Consols closed yesterday evening at 85/ 6 for ac count, and opened this morning at 86, since which they have been 86 1 1 for account, and 84- ex. div. for money; the latter is somewhat easier to.: day, and the appearance of the market is generally good; some fears seem to be entertained that the Bears have not yet covered their accounts, and con sequently there is some alarm entertained that the approaching settlement will be attended with con siderable mischief, particularly if the parties who have lent stock should continue to require a return of it prior to the 22d inst. India Bonds continue to get up, being 93 5; Exchequer Bills, 61 2 pm. This being Settling-day in the Foreign Securities, little or nothing has been attended to but making up accounts, and prices are nearly nominal :—Brazilian Bonds, 591 604; Buenos Ayres, 42 4; Chilian, 25 7; and Colombian, 26 4; Danish are 604; Russian, 911 2 ; and Greek 174 1 ; Mexican, 6 per Cents. are 464 4. The same want of activity attends the Share Market, Brazilian Mines are 67 9 prem. ; Colombian, 224 34 per Share; in every thing else no alteration. In the City there is nothing fresh known relative to the formation of the new Ministry; the general feeling is, it must bear a considerable disposition to a liberal policy, to have the confidence of the country. The fears which we expressed in our City article yesterday, relative to the accounts that would be re ceived this morning from the coast are, we are sorry to say, most amply verified, and Lloyd's books ex hibit the almost unexampled fury and damage occa sioned by the gale of last Saturday night and Sun day morning.

Post. DTSPEP4IA.—Dr. JAMES JOHNSON, in the last number of The _Medico Chirurgical Review, says, " It would be a merciful dispensation of Providence, if every young practitioner were to have one year's misery of dyspepsia—say the first year—when he would have plenty of time to attend to himself ! It would save some thou sands of his future dyspeptic patients from the murderous practice of blue pill at night, and black broth in the morning ; a practice which, we verily believe, inflicts a greater annual amount of moral and physical sufferings on humanity, than all the other errors of medicine' put toge ther ! We seriously advise the rising generation of the profession to look to this in time. The non-professional public is every day acquiring experience on this point ; and we have the means of knowing that an important revolu tion is on the eve of bursting forth, in respect to the pro priety of deluging the dyspeptic stomach with drastic medicines." THE ROBBERY IN WATERLOO-PLACE.-- At the late hour when we received information of the daring and extensive burglary, committed in the premises of Mr. Caoox, silk mercer and draper, of Waterloo-place, Pall- Mall, on Sunday ni g h t, we could not g i ve a f u ll er report of the occurrence. W o were in error, i n stat i ng, that the property stolen was of the value of 3001.; the fact is, that the property carried off by the thieves exceeded in value SOO/. It consisted of German, Irish, and Scotch damask table cloths of different sizes, value 3001. ; mnslins and cal. limes, 150/. ; silk goods, 501.; and cash, 24/. There is every reason to believe, the thieves were in the premises a considerable time. A cabriolet, as well as a hackney-coach, were seen in Regent street, waiting for some time, about the period the robbery is sapposed to have been committed. The stock in the shop, which was left behind, is valued at several thousand pounds. must have been prepared ? The masterly manner in which the first irruption has been overcome, is a sufficient guarantee for surmounting the second. As to the want of funds, we cannot think that the Proprietors, after having expended so much, are sti devoid of public spirit as to sacrifice all by relinquishing the project. But should they be so disposed, we trust that Govern ment will step forward and maintain our national character for enterprise by completing the work. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE--(THIS DAY,) FROM LLOYD'S.

PORTSMOUTH, JAN. 14.—Calm.—The General Palmer was towed into harbour by a Steamer, sur veyed, and the necessary repairs commenced, which will be completed with all possible despatch, to en able her to proceed on her voyage. FALMOUTH, JAN. 13.—We had a repetition of bad weather last night, the wind blowing a tremen dous hurricane from W.S.W., commencing at about midnight and continuing till day-light; for many years we have not experienced anything like it.— The Margaret, of and from Guernsey to Gibraltar, was driven on shore at Little Falmouth, by the brig Hilda drifting on board her, and now lies on her beam ends, full of water, with her back broke, hav ing grounded on some sunken timber ; great damage hai been done to the neighbouring towns, by the falling of chimneys and trees and unroofing of houses. Ile Valency, Bellamy, from Waterford, was on shore on the Spit, near Portsmouth, yesterday, and must discharge. The Delphin, Halls, from Christiania, Chlmis, and Lawrence, Gazzcll, were run on shore at Ply mouth on Sunday. LIVERPOOL, JAN. 13.—Last night, from about eleven o'clock, we had heavy fain and wind for some hours. To-day, wind N.N.E., and fair.

There is no hope of her being got off. The water flows over her every tide; the masts have been cut away, and she is surrounded by boats, getting out the cargo.

The ATTottNitY-GzNERAL stated this case, which was an action of assuropsit, brought by the plaintiff, an extensive coach proprietor, residing at Thatcham, on the road from Bath to London. The defendant is the proprietor of the 'York House, Bath, and is also a co ac h p ro p r i etor . Th e plaintiff is proprietor of the King's Head, at Thatcham, and has stabling behind the inn for one hundred horses, and being about to retire from business, he disposed of his shares in the Regulator;Express;Defiance and Marl borough coaches, as well as a branch coach to Swin don, for the consideration of 2,2504, and with the con dition that the coaches should stop as heretofore at the King's Head, and give time to the passengers to breakfast, dine, or sup, according to the hour of the day at which the coaches should arrive. The alleged breach of the contract was, that the coaches no longer stepped at the plaintiff's house(the King's Head) according to the agreement, and that in con sequence of this breach of contract the plaintiff's in terest in the inn and stabling attached, at Thatcham, was greatly reduced in value. The defence was, that the accommodation afforded to the coach passengers, at the King's Head, was so bad that the proprietors were obliged to take the coaches to other houses. Verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 8001. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY MANSION-HOUSE. A weather-beaten tar, named James Henderson, was brought before the Lotto MAroa, from Giltspur-street Compter, by an officer, who stated that he met him in the streets at a late hour last night; be told bins (the officer) that he came from Yarmouth, where he had been seek ing for a brother, but had not succeeded in finding him, and was compelled to walk from thence to London, with scarcely a halfpenny in his pocket. He had walked from Brentwood that night without having partaken of food. He appeared weary from the effects of travelling, and said that he had no shelter for the night, witness therefore lodged him in the Compter. _ _ The LORD MAYOR (to the seaman) —Were you in his Majesty's service? _ _ Seaman--Yes, your Lordship, I was ten years in his Majesty's naval service aboard the Queen Charlotte, and accompanied Lord Exmouth on his expedition to Algiers. The LORD MA von. having pot several questions to the poor fellow, that convinced him that he was an object of charity, told him, that if he would go to sea again, he should be provided with suitable clothing for the purpose. The Sailor thanked his Lordship, and was reaaoved. A sorrowful native of the West Indies was charged with begging in the city. A constable stated that the defttdant, since his arrival in this country, had acquired a habit of sitting down in public thoroughfares in the city, with his arm tied in a sling, and pulling long faces of woe, attempted to excite the pity of passengers, but having a strong sus picion that he was playing the old soldier, he took him into custody, and on examining his arm he found it ailed nothing. Musa Blackey declared that his arm was wery pad, and that he was an unfortunate nigger, striving to turn an honest penny by begging, as he did not know how to work. But the LORD MArox being dubious on that point, committed him to Bridewell as a rogue and a vagabond.
