LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, MARCH 29, 1826. It is strongly reported, in quarters which have good means of information, that the Turk; are willin g to obtain a suspension of arms for three months, during which the Bosphorus is to be open to all vessels. It is even said that our Government is going to send Lord STUART to Constantinople, and that Mr. STRATFORD CANNING is to proceed to Vienna. It is added that so doubt exists as to Peace being pre served :—we doubt it much. The Allgerneine Zeituiur of the 21st inst. contains an enlarged account of the persecution and miseries to which the unfortunate Armenian Catholics are subjected by the sanguinary proceed ings Ofthe PORTE. Such barbarity well deserves severe retribution, and we should not be sorry if the SULTAN and his merciless agents were one day to smart under a portion of that vengeance which they are now inflicting upon helpless individuals. It is shocking to humanity to peruse the fate of a number of helpless children, and almost equally helpless women, who, driven from their homes, perished in the moun tainous snows of Nicomedia. Even the hu manity of the PAciiA, feeling as !nen must do in all countries, was touched by such a picture of forlorn helplessness and death. But his interposition came too late for the poor, and the rich who shared his bounty were only placed in the humiliating situation of z eceiv ing from the hands of a stranger that kind ness which their better fortune would have enabled them to bestow at home. But, alas ! the direful vicissitudes of those at the mercy of tyrants. It i s said that the persons about the SULTAN fear war—and well they may ; but that he himself, with a reckless greatness of purpose, heeds it not, whil e h e, at t h e same tune, takes especial care not to com mit himself by any act which may be con strued into a purpose o f hostility. This may b e far as actual ope all v er y we ll, so ratiollB are concerned, but how can he recon. tile the a ggressive declaration that he never int ended to abide by the Treaty of Akerman, or others, the due performance of which were con tingent upon its ratifications. Among civilised iiation s I th e writt en express i on o f f ee li n g is as biddi ng as that of action. If words are of any value, tb,.4. • import ought to be abided by in the conference of an Ambassador fully as much as if h e were if to be b ac k e d by an arm y. B u t althe Turks send Ambassadors merely to gn tiine, and thereby deceiveother . • . iereby it is b ut . just that they should be taught the folly of such proceedings. Other nations would h e e ii qua y cunning, if a sense of morality did not prevent them from having recourse to such all unwo r thy - 7. r use, merely gain an advantage w hi ch cou , , to id not, e rep af all, d e of long duration, b And could never btereate __ The Jews have received C oNSTANTINOFLE, Ir . Eli d . r 2 es 3; _ n t he space of four week, forordersthe _to change . tlieir which i t h e y are henceforth to wear with Turkish costume,tion ofthe tur ban, Coraordai and Jocit, the tweo exception bankers of the Court, are excused frorn obeying this order. The Catholics ar e st il l persecuted ; the icclesiastics have b ee n transported to the Archipelag o , w.t., ; 1 - the exception of fire who have been allowed to remain a little longer in Pen and Galatea. The houses of the exiles are sold by auction, but at low prices, because only Mussulma4 May boy them, and uo rich Mahometans live in Pera or Galatea. We learn from Bucharest, that notwithstanding the prohibition to the Turks to pass the Danube, well armed detachments visit the environs of Bucharest, and urge the delivery of the requisitions ordered. Hati Effendi, who conducted the negotiations at Aker man, has been appointed Intendant of the Police, in the room of Husney Bey. There are numberless conjectures on the object of tLis change, which is supposed to be connected with some political designs. It is certain that the persons about the Sultan fear war, that he alone does not feel any apprehension, but that he, however, possesses sufficient penetration to avoid any thing that might lead to a rupture, and that he will endeavour to maintain peace, if the Ulemas do not impel him to some extremity. The Pacha of Nicomedia, in a report to the Sultan on the banishment of the Armenians, describes the misery of these unhappy exiles in the following terms : " I have been unable to bear the sight of the misery of the exiled infidels. Forsaken by their brethren, they were devoted to inevitable death, if by the grace of the Prophet, which guided my hand, they had not been supplied with bread, &c." The snow which is very deep in the mountains in those countries, and which at the least thaw causes in undations in the plains, has been the death of a great num ber. The Pacha of Nieomedia was himself witness of the death of two hundred children, and nineteen pregnant women. Only yesterday, sixty individuals belonging to the richest and most esteemed families, were sent to Scutari, to be conveyed to Angora. Among them are the four brothers INlanacer, who were hankers of the Court, and the chief partner of the great house of Eilo Ogelo Angelo. All their property is confiscated. One of the brothers Mauacer, Professor of the Turkish Language, who was highly esteemed by the Turks, had interested several great men in his favour, yet the order for his prescription was executed with the utmost rigour. The Ulemas are much dissatisfied with this prosecution; most of them are debtors to the Armenians, and as the Government has taken possession of the securities held by the latter, and exercises their rights, it has already caused the houses of several of the Ulemas to be seized as security for the payment. On the 20th the Armenian Patriarch called together the Catholic* who are still here, and again pro posed to them to join his sect, but they all refused, pre ferring to be the victims of their fidelity to their belief.

According to the bulletins published to-day, the health of their Majesties continues to improve. The Timcs of this morning insinuates that Ministers have delayed proposing the Resolu tions regarding the Corn Bill from nervous un willingness to meet the subject. Now, whatever charges may be brought against the distin guished Individual at the head of his MA JEg TY's Government, we did think that his Grace was at least safe from any attack on the score of timidity and evasion. Besides, so little can be gained by putting off' the ques tion till Monday evening, when it is positively to be brought forward, that that circumstance alone should procure credit for the statements made last night by the Duke and Mr. PEEL, in either House of Parliament. There is nothing more melancholy than the blind fury with which the Country Gentlemen rush forward in pursuit of what they erro neously conceive to be their true interests. We really believe that Sir T. LETHBRIDGE, or Sir EDWARD KNATCHBULL, would not only make the importation of Foreign Corn a capital felony, without benefit of Clergy, but would propose a bounty on exportation, sufficient to achieve a national bankruptcy in the course of three years. It is quite useless to tell them that the prosperity of their best customers the ma nufacturing interests, is essential to their own, and that an excessive price in the article of food will be the ruin of our manufactures in foreign markets. These they take to be the wild speculations of the Political Economists, and in direct opposition to the genius of British Legislation. They are not satisfied with agriculture being justly considered the basis of our national prosperity, but to meet their views all the superstructure of commerce must be held as naught. They talk as if they would be satisfied with a simple pastoral life, and yet none seem to appreciate more fully the genial wines of Spain and France, the exclusive produce of the Celestial Empire, or, in short, the varied luxuries which our fleets import from the East and the West Indies, and the remotest quarters of the globe. With respect to the Resolutions which are to be proposed on Saturday, we Sin cerely trust that they will vary but little, if at all, from the Corn Bill of last year, which certainly appeared to us the perfection of legis lation. The principle of a duty varying in an inverse ratio to the price of corn, accommodates itself so admirably to all the possible contin gencies of an invisible futurity, that we cannot see how any fixed duty can realize so many ad vantages, or guard against so many evils. It was calculated to regulate the price of food, without inducing the country to trust for any material portion of its subsistence to a precarious supply from foreign nations—it maintained a strict im partiality towards what are unfortunately con sidered the two great conflicting interests ; and, in a word, was such, that we can hardly fancy it improved, and shall be satisfied if the new Bill only prove to be equally unexceptionable. It is now positively stated that the destination of the French Armament, preparing in the port of Toulon, is—Algiers. Twenty thousand men and a large park of artillery are to be landed. The object of the French is said to be to grow cotton and coffee for their own supply. If so, we think they could obtain them cheaper by im portation. Trinidad Papers of the 9th of February men tion the arrival of the Bishop of BARBADOES with his Lady, at Port Spain, in his MAJESTY'S ship Aurora, on the Bth, to whom, from that island, every welcome and military honours were paid on their landing. His Lordship's stay was not expected to be long, but it was conjectured he would hold a Confirmation. The Lord Bishop was accompanied by Sir F. FORD, Colonel YoUNGIIITSBAND, It.A., and Capt. NICHOL. Barbadoes Papers of the 12th ult. state, with feelings of much gratification, that His Honour, the President, had received a dispatch from the Colonial Secretary, relating to the prosecution against the Rev. Mr. HARTE, who had been found guilty of a misdemeanour, and ordered to . pay a fine of one shilling, which having been paid, his MAJESTY has been pleased to pardon and remit all further fines and pu nishments. This event seams to have caused a universal feeling of gratification in the island, where Mr. HARTE seems to be universally re spected as a Minister of the Church of Eng land. The latest advices from Bucharest account for the unusual delay of the post which left Constantinople on the 10th ult., by stating that the tatar, bearer of the mail bags, had also been intrusted with consider able sums in specie; that so insecure had the passage of the Danube been rendered for several days by the masses of ice floating down the river, that although persons without baggage might venture over, the tatar conceived it too imprudent to do so with the letters and money. A delay from a similar cause does not seem to be without precedent, and persons who have long resided in Walachia, and who are perfectly acquainted with the localities, say, that they have sometimes known the Danube to be ab solutely impassable for three weeks at this period of the year, when the thawing commences, and more particularly so between Rousstshiouk and Gior giova, which, not being exactly opposite to each other, the passage is extended to the distance of a good English mile.

Consols opened this morning at 831 _ a , but immediately went up to 83i and were done several times at the latter price. Some sales, by a leading broker, reduced them to their present rate, 831 i for money, 834 buyers ,for ac count, and 831 fur Allay. The general apprehension which the Russian declaration caused yesterday afternoon has not made much impression on the Market ; and, al though decidedly in a warlike tone, is deemed not likely to bring us within its vortex. India Bonds are 90 2 ; and Exchequer Bills, 58 9 pm. In the Foreign Funds, Russian have improved a little Front yesterday's prices, and are now 881 87; Portuguese, 59f 60k. Every arrival from this quarter is looked for with a great deal of anxiety, not only for its political in telligence, but for the sake of the English residents, whose property and lives, particularly in the northern parts of the kingdom, are considered in much peril. A Government steam-vessel is expected hourly to arrive from Lisbon. The arrival of a Leeward Island Mail has not furnished us with any important news. Letters from Porto Cabello of the 13th February have been received, the bands of Cisneros have been completely routed and destroyed. Admiral La Borde occasioned no alarm by his cruise on the coast.

ALBANS gave their Second Grand Dinner on Thursday, in Stratton street. The banquet was succeeded by a Concert and Ball, in the same style of excellence as on Monday, and was attended by nearly four hundred persons of the first dis tinction. LAW INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAY.) COURT OF CHANCERY. DUKE OF BEAUFORT V. WELDESLIEr. Mr. IloarrE was instructed to state, that upon the re ference that had been made to the Master, to approve of a tutor far Mr. Wellesley's children, the Master had made his report, which had gone before the Vice-Chancellor; that the parties wished to have it transferred from his Honour's to his Lordship's paper, and that it might be ap pointed to come on on Thursday next. The Master had approved of a tutor fur the children. His Loßnsiiir granted the application, it not having been opposed. ATTORNEY-GENERAL C. LORD RIANSEIF:I.D. When a petition in the Highgate Charity matter, which stood in the paper per order, was called on, nobody ap peared to support it. Mr. HORNE appeared prepared to oppose the petition. He had just heard that the petition had been withdrawn, and therefore he applied for the costs. The LORD CHANCELLOR ordered the petition to be struck out of the paper, and the costs to be paid by the defendants. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT. It will be recollected that on last Saturday an applica tion was made for an injunction to restrain certain parties from infringing the patent granted to a Mr. Morden, for the manufacture of port-crayons or pencil holders. The motion was then directed to stand over, in order that the defendants might be served with notice. Mr. PEPYS renewed the application to-day, Mr. LOVATT appeared for the defendant, who resided in Staffordshire. He had been served with the notice of mo tion on the 26th, and as he had not sufficient time to in spect and answer the affidavits filed in support of it, the Learned Gentleman asked that the motion should stand over to the next seal. Mr. PErrs would not consent to this indulgence, unless there were an understanding on the part of the defendant not to infringe the patent in the interval. The VICE CHANCELLOR - Surely, the sale of a few pencil holders can make no difference. _ _ _ Mr. PEI' vs.—The injury is to our character ; they are disgracing us by their imitation. The motion was finally directed to stand over to thf next seal upon the terms required by Mr. Pepys. Several other motions were postponed, in consequence of the absence of some of the leading counsel, who were en gaged before the Lord Chancellor. THE MARKETS.--(THIS DAY.)

THE MARQUIS OF ANGLESEY.—It gives us great pleasure to be able to state that his Excellency is in the enjoyment of considerably improvcd health and ex cellent spirits, since his Excellency's arrival in this coun try. Yesterday, his Excellency, accompanied by the Earl of UXBRIDGE and the Ladies PAGET, proceeded on foot from the Castle, and walked through ,Dame-street, College green, Westmorland-sti.eet, and Sackville-street, and re turned by the Qua: f s and Parliament-street to the Castle. Crowds of perseos, of both sexes, and of all grades, seemed anxious to catch a glimpee of the Lord Lieutenant, and of his amiabie daughters, and evinced their joy at seeing the new Viceroy mingling with the crowd, and unattended by a=•y guards, unless the affection and esteem of a generous and faithful, but, unfortunately, too long misgoverned people.—Dublin Freeman's Journal.

Some of the London Papers mentioned a few days ago, that the Duke of HAMILTON had had his pocket picked there.

Something like what may he called a pig mania has raged throughout this winter, but is now be ginning to be a little on the decline. We are assured, by a correspondent, that small store pigs have been actually fetching as high as Is. 6d. per lb. ! And, notwithstanding the curing season is fast approaching to t a conclusion, and that the swine which are killed at this late period are commonly of an inferior description, prices have as vet experienced little or no depression.—Berks Chronicle. The custom of piercing the ears for rings, though an extremely absurd one, is, nevertheless, one of great antiquity in the East. It is alluded to in the book of Exodus, and by )(Error/fox; and, at the present day, when the Persians mean to say a person is wholly devoted to another, they use the phrase—" He weurs his ring in his ear." We understand that it is in contemplation early in tlik. ensuing autumn, to remove the Reserve Companies of that distinguished corps the 51st, or the King's Own Light In - fantry, from their present quarters, at Forton, to their original station at Brighton.

The persons tried for this barbarous crime, were ANN MAGRATII (aged between 60 and 70 years) who had been engaged as nurse, and PATRICE KELLY, the alleged father of the bastard child. 'the latter was acquitted, but the hoary old wretch was, after a long deliberate trial, found guilty of one of the most savage and cold-blooded murders that is to be found in the blackest annals of crime.— Carlow Morning Post. SALE OF A WIFE.—One of those scenes which disgrace civilized society, took place in this town, on Wednesday. At one o'clock in the afternoon, a man who sells earthenware led his wife, with a halter round her neck, to the market-place, and exposed her for sale. —The price asked by the husband was the very moderate sum of threepence, which he soon obtained from a young man. As soon as the sale was concluded, the whole part adjourned to a public-house, to ratify the cheap bargain.— Stockport .Advertizer.

There was lately found in a fish-pond at Abingdon, belonging to Mr. TOMKINS, a tea-canister full of guineas.

This is supposed to be part of the money.

The jury returned a verdict of " Found drowned." SINGULAR CIRCIJAISTANCE.—.About two years ago, a weaver going across the fields between Cheadle Mulme and Edgeley, bad the misfortune to lose his watch. On discoverbsg Ms loss, he :flack all possible search in the fields, gave information to his neighbours, and to all the pawnbrokers in the town, without however regaining the watch ; and main was heard of it till last week, when it was found by a lad, close to the footpath in one of the 1d a through which the man had passed. The works were completely destroyed in consequence of having lain so long exposed to the weather. —Stockport Advertiser. The Broomielaw quay presents at preHut a very cheering and interesting spectacle. Along the whole length of the harbour the river is literally crowded with shipping; in several places the vessels are lying six a-breast, many of them remarkably fine vessels. A great many steam-boats, which had been laid up during the winter, are now again preparing to ply, and preparations for the approaching summer excursions are going rapidly on in all directions : an unusual appearance of life and activity accordingly pervades all classes usually employed at the quay.-- Glasgow Chronicle.

TO THE EDI'T'OR OF THE SUN. have lust seen a paragraph in your Paper of the 12th inst., copied front the World, in reference to a petition stated to have been sent by the Bishop of Salisbury to the resident Clergyman of a large pariah in his Diocese, against [the repeal of j the Corporation and Teat Acts, and returned by him to his Lordship. And in the Molt/ of the same date there was introduced a long and virulent in vectiit against the Bishop, founded on that statement. This, Sir, It the third attack which has linen published in the World against the venerable Bishop of Salisbury, and I have reason to believe that it is his Lordship's present intention to direct that a Prosecution shall be commenced immediately against the Editor of that most calumnious Papet. Whether you. Sir, will be included in that Prose cution I do not Itiiuw, but 1 hereby declare most solemnly that the statement alluded to is a gross and maliaione hood ; that I alone am responsible for the circulation of the petition in question ; that I never consulted the Bishop upon it ; that the Bishop wa , entirely ignorant of my in tention, and has never, I believe, seen the petition even t this day. The advertisement, announcing that it woul,l lie for signature at the principal places in the several Deaneries of may Archdet,conry, sea inserted in the &aka bury Journal by ass directions, and was signed by myself as Archdeacon of Sarum. I contented myself with having that advertisement inserted, and never canvassed a single. Clergyman within Loy Archdeacoury to sign the petition. I left it entirely to the discretion of each to act as he judged most expedient, and the only occurrence on which, as I conceive, the gross and wilful misrepresentation could have been founded, is the circumstance of a Clergyman having, expressed, on the ground of personal convenience, a reluc tance to permit it to lie at his house for signat we. The same Clergyman also, I believe, declined signing it. I shall make no further comment: , on the transaction, but I call upon you, Csir, as a man of common honour and integrity, to give the same publicity to this, my positive contradiction of a most gross libel, with that which yeu gave to the libel itself. 1 am, Sir, your obedient Servani. L. CLARKE, Atchdeacoutuf Serum Downton, miter Salisbury-, March 27, 1828. ST. BARTHOLOMEW'S HOSPITAL (Front the Landon Medical Gazetito A man, married, about thirty years of age, seas brought to the Hospital en Wednesday night, March 20th, with symptoms of hydrophobia. It appear:: that, about ten weeks age, he Was bitten by a cat, attempting to save one of his children, who was likewise injured by the animal, but in whom no symptoms of the disease have yet shown themselves.. He was bitten deeply on the ring-finger of his left hand, and upon the calf of his leg, and came the next day to St. Bartholomew's, where he wasadvised to have the injured part excised; but this he refused, as well as for his child, for whom the same operation was recommended; the wound healed up, and he thought little more of the matter till last Sunday, when he first perceived a stiffness in the left hand, followed by pain, shooting tip his arm ; but he supposed it to arise from a strain, and paid little at tention to it 1 in the evening the pain became more severe, and continued through the night and all the next day; on Tuesday it was to excruciating that he could scarcely endure it ; and he then, for the first time, sent for a medical man, who bled him, withoat affording, however, any relief. The next day, about noon, ke seemed better; the pain had almost left him, and he expressed a wish to take some wine and water, but he had nd sooner swallowed a little than he sprang from his bed in a strong convulsion; his medical attendant having been sent for, again tried him with some liquid, but he drew back with horror. The same effect was produced at each attempt to drink, but in the course of an hour he contrived to swallow a pill, and a vitt7 small piece of bread and butter. In the evening he was brought to the Hospital ; at that time Doctor Hue, under whose care he was placed, described the usual symptom* of hydrophobia to have been well marked. Ile had an anxious and somewhat wild look ; his eyes were staring, and his pupils extremely dilated he was tolerably ca l m i n his manner, and quite rational, an. swering all questions that were put to him clearly, as far as the sense was concerned, although it was difficult to understand what he said, from a naturel impediment in his speech, which was perhaps some what increased by his alarm ; but he evidently avoided, as much as possible, any allusion to the origin of his disorder, wishing to attribute it to some other cause; though he afterwards rneationed to the nurse his suspicions of its true nature. yis pulse was 80, and full ; his bowels had been opened several times on the preceding day, but not on that his skin was moist, and he afterwards perspired very profusely. He had great difficulty in detaching the saliva from his mouth and fauces ; and it adhering about his lips gave it that appearance of froth ing at the mouth which has been described as a characteristic of this disease. He was rather thirsty, but this sensation was not distressing. An attempt was now again made to induce him to swat low some liquid, but it immediately produced a spasm of the muscles of the throat, and, apparently-, of the diaphragm ; putting a moistened feather be tween his lips occasioned the same effect : indeed, the mere passing of any one rapidly by him was sufficient to bring it on, but listless some exc li eng cause like those Just mentioned was present, he ree three grains of extract of belle, mained quiet, and apparently free from spasm. It with thirty drops of laudanum (to insure was determined to try the influence of narcotics, once ee or rurtiiiivgi twice the h ad night. the d an o d n , na a , ce N o v r i d th i its retention), dissolved in water, were thrown up the rectum ; but this, apparently, had no el, feet on him, and he remained much' in the same was quite sensible, and talked at ntervals : he p moistened urin g plied . by his own desire. About ten o'clock, a.m. the injection of bclladona and opium was repeated, and the effects of this dose soon became apparent; ,this feather tm e ahe much so, that the other symptoms were com pletely marked (as Dr. Hue expressed it) by it. His pulse rose to 140, and was strong and hard; his eyea were red, and blood-shot; he ceased to speak intel ligibly, and his breathing, was laboured; indeed the de termination of blood to the head was so evident, that about noon it was thought right to open his temporal artery; but while this measure was in considera tion lie was seized with a kind of epileptic fit, and became gradually convulsed. A large quantity of blood, about two pounds, was drawn from his tem ples, and he seemed a little relieved ; but the cou ulsions, snbsultus tendinum, especially about the face and throat, continued, and he became more. comatose till nearly six in the evening, when death put a termination to his sufferings.
