FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. FRENCIT PAPERS. (From the Constitutionnel.) PARIS, AUG. 29.—Two months ago our expe dition to the Mores was to all appearance of little importance, in comparison with the immense enter prise of Russia and the alleged preparations of Eng land. The world, however, sees already in the mere fact of that expedition the most important event, perhaps, to which the Oriental _question h as y e t given rise. As far as Europe is concerned, it is the conclusion of a .political system which has been for the last 30 years directed against the establishment of French ideas, and the, commencement of a new system, which will recall France . with those same ideas to her ancient place in the political world. Let us not hesitate to declare the truth; it is on the Danube that the power which seeks the annihi lation of the Porte must present itself ; but it is in the Morea that the power must establish itself which seek§ only the preservation of Greece. It is in our power to publish upon the geographi cal position of the Morea, and upon its commercial destiny, in case the Dardanelles should be opened, facts which cannot fail to make a strong impression on our readers, and which will prove, perhaps, the importance of this corner of the world to be as great in the future as it has been in the past. . This district has never been possessed by the Turks in the same security as the rest of Greece. At the commencement of the last century the famous :Vlorosini wrested it from them, and added to his name the title of Peloponnesian. Fifty-five years after the final expulsion of the Venetians, the Russians made their lamentable attempt upon it under the command of the great favourite of Cathe rine 11. It is only since the year 1770, the date of that expedition, that the Turks have reigned with out competitors in the Morea. It is 'well known that in order to have nothing to fear from the popu lation, they delivered it up for ten years to the ferocity of an Albanian army, which lived at dis 4Tetion in its territories, and which did not repass the Isthmus till they had destroyed every tree and devas tated every cultivated field within it. In spite of all this, the Peloponnesus was still, a few years before the pre:ient re volution, the most thickly Peopled dis trict in Greece, and it was there. that the . Christian population had the greatest superiority of numbers over the Turkish. Whilst it was calculated that in Romelia there was only a thousand inhabitants for every square mile, and in Moldavia and Wallachia only seven hundred, it was calculated that there were nearly 900 for every square mile in the Morea. There were in Romelia 1,800,000 Osmanlis against 1,600,000 Greeks. In the Morea, on the contrary, there were only 50,000 Turks to 700,000 Christians. Since the war the Christian population has much augmented in the Morea and in other parts of Greece. The Turkish population, on the contrary, has . so much diminished, that it is only to be found in the garrisons of two or three cities, without munitions aid without bread. The best informed Greeks assure us that in the 3Torea four-fifths of the soil were in the hands of the Turks, who formed only a 14th part of the po pulation, Property was every where else divided in a manner less oppressive for the Greeks. In the Morea we neither saw that military institution of the Armatotis, those political and civil ,cOrporations so common in Thessaly and Epirus, nor those com positions for the IcEmatch, which on the other side of the Isthmus softened or rendered more regular the servitude of the Greeks, (as much as Turkish inso lence would permit), and which succeeded in intro ducing a certain confraternity of manners between the professors of the two religions. In the Morea, conquest had remained in its violent state; the hatred between the Turks and the Greeks had pre served its primitive energy. Hence, the excesses of suffering, the numerical superiority of the popula tion, the advantages of position; all concurred in making the Morea the principal focus of the Greek revolution. The prodigious fertility of the soil added to. those causes of the preponderance of the Morea in the affairs of Greece. At the revolution, the property of the Turks in the Morea becoming national property, afforded a guarantee for the money borrowed in Eno-- laid. If the Egyptain invasion ruined so rapidly the affairs of the Greeks, it was not by the victories which it obtained over them, but by the .doubt which it threw on the real value of the territorial pledges for the loan,—dotibts, which placed the Greeks in a situation of no longer supporting their credit, 'aid, consequently, of being unable to defray the expenses of an organization according to the European plan. Such is the true secret of the three years of dia., asters experienced by the Cheeks. Whilst we were making on their behalf contributions with so much zeal and sympathy, Ibrahim was destroying their credit by stripping them of those guarantees on which they might, perhaps, have succeeded in obe taining money even from the bankers of the Holy Alliance. The French expedition, in order to obtain thi most entire success, must take out of the hands of Ibrahim, and restore to those of the Greek Govern ment, the property declared national about seven years ago. The Greeks wait the cele of these lands as the true era of their regeneration, and it is only a Government strong and respected which cao . effect it by giving security to the purchasers, The latter wilt he found among the rich Greeks who inhabit the capitals of Europe and the lonian Isles. The population, ruined as it is, will have a thou Sand means for treating Tor_ small lots, eithei by entering into engagements with the Government, or by procuring Aid from foreign capitalists, If it is true, as we are assured, that the half only o f t he great plains of Vostizza, Corinth, Gastouni, TfieZelle, Argos, Calamata, Tripolaza r, would, if properly cultivated, suffic e to extinguish the exist ing debt, if it be true thatah e mi nes „ t h e f ores t s , the fisheries of the Pelopennesu s have never been worked to their fell value by the Turks, and are im mensely rich ; if it is true that to the Production of wheat, of wine, of oil , of raisins, and of fi gs , we may the production of i n di go, add, in a very short time , of coffee, of tea, of cotton, and of silk ; if It la i ncoo . tee.table that the population of this beautiful country has every necessary qualification to avail itself of useful institutions; and if, in short, it is permitted us to hope that it can very Soon love us as benefaF -1015, the most noble and consolatory revolution i s on the point of being accomplished under our auspices.

( ra n-ATE comarseosterver.) LENIffURG, Ara. 17,--R e p orts, which haVe eerne to the head-quarters of the Austtiaa troo ps in this province, announce that An extraordiraary courier, despatched by Field-111iretlal Count Wittgenstein, had arrived at the head - q uarters at Lublin, w ith very important despatches from the Grand Duke Constantine. It was soon after reported at Lublin, that the Polish army would be immediately reviewed,, and that a strong division of infantry, cavalry; and artillery, would then commence its march to the Danube. It was added that these troops were 'to proceed to their destinations by forced marches. CORFU, JULY 23.—We have received news that 25 transports from Alexandria, with provisions and troops, have arrived at Navarin, It is added, that Jbrahim Pacha has sent t t «11 .11c 1 Catetior of the Morea to reap the corn, and carry off all the cattle, and that these troops have every where caused devastation, and massacred some Greeks. On receiving this news the English and French Admirals sailed from this port on the 19th for Navarin. (From the Ozzzette de France, Aug. 31.) VIENNA, AUG. 3L—The hopes of peace that had been conceiVed at Odessa had.vanished on the 11th. The cause of this change was not, known, any more than the true reason of the Emperor's return. It is true, that those who are about the Emperor have made communications to the foreign Consuls, which gave reason to believe that an armistice has been concluded, at the desire of Hussein Pacha; but it is certain that political affairs are so enveloped in mystery. at Odessa, that the correspondents do not dare to risk a conjecture. CONsTANTINOPV • AUG. 6,—The accounts from the theatre of war are still favourable. to the Porte. 11ussein writes, that.up to the 2d the attacks of the Russians upon Sbumla had been victoriously re pulsed. These accounts cause the armaments to be pressed on with great zeal. A select corps of 10,000 men has set out for Adrianople, after being re viewed by the Sultan. The departure of the Grand Vizier for Adrianople is also talked of. BUCHAREST, AuG. 9.--All the accounts from the head-quarters are favourable to the Russians. Silis tria is closely blockaded. The Turkish garrisons of Giurdzevo, Rudschuck, Calafat, and Widdin, which are very strong, make sallies from time to time into Great and Little Wallachia. Considerable reinforceMents are expected, which will put a stop to their invasions. PARIS, AtiG. 30.—Mr. Stratford Canning and the Marquis de Ribeaupierre left Ancona for Corfu en the Bth of August : Mr. Canning on board the Tal- Lot frigate, and M. de Ribeauperre on board the ()ea brig.

ODESSA, Ara. 12.—His Majesty the Empe= ror, with the Grand Duke Michael and Count Nes selrode, arrived on the Bth. Lord Heytesbury, the English Ambassador, has since arrived, and it is said he has important communications to make from his Court. It is not known how long his Majesty _will remain here, but it is generally affirmed that ' after the junction of the expected reinforcements he will return to the army. It is known that reinforcements to the amount of 40,000 men, besides the Guards, passed the Danube at the beginning of this month. The Guards must reach their destination in a few days. BUCHAREST, AUG. 7.—The Russian army re mains in its well-entrenched camp before Shumla, expecting the arrival of the Guards, 25,000 strong, who+ are to arrive at Bazardjik on' the 15th of Au gust. The plague has entirely vanished here, and business has returned to its usual course. In the neighbourhood there are still some symptoms, but these last signs of disease will soon disappear. All accounts of a disorder which no longer exists, and of dan g er which has long since vanished, are there fore to be classed in the domain of a fiction. BUCHAREST, AUG. 9.—A1l the accounts from the theatre of war are favourable to the Russians : they are close to the gates of Shumla, and the fall of Silistria is at hand. ODESSA, AuG.l3.—We hear that his Majesty will set out on the 22d to return to the army. It is certain that by that day all the reinforcements, which amount to nearly 85,000 men, must have joined the army at Shumla, and that a grand attack will then be made, unless the operations, which will be car ried on mean time, should have led to an earlier de velopment of the great crisis. VIENNA, AUG. 22.—The Prince of Hesse Hom burg arrived at the Russian head-quarters on the same day that the Emperor set out for Odessa. By an autograph letter of the Emperor to the Pre sident of the Aulic Council of War, his Majesty has appointed his grandson, the Duke of Reiehstadt, to the inexpressible joy of his august mother and the young Prince him - self, to the rank of Captain in the Yager battalion bearing his Majesty's name. Thus the military career of the Prince will commence this year, and it is said that, in the approaching reviews, he will be placed under the Archduke Charles. BERLIN, AUG. 28.—The Slate Gazelle contains the following article from Turkey :—" A corps of 3,000 men have been sent from Karabanit to rein force the garrison of Varna, and 6,000 volunteers of the militia of Constantinople are gone to the former place. A promise has been made to those troops that they shall be relieved in a month. " On the sth of August, after a Council, at which all the Ministers and great officers were present, the order of the Sultan for the Grand Vizier to go to the army was made known. His standards were immediately placed before his palace, and his head quarters were to be on the 7th at Daud Pacha, where the corps which he will command is to be formed. .This corps will consist of only 10,000 or 12,000 men, but will be reinforced at Adrianople by another of -equal force, which Tschapan Oglow brings from Cartimania, by way of Gallipoli. The substitutes of the MiniSters, who in former times used to remain at Constantinople on these occasions, will accompany the Grand Vizier; and, on the other hand, the old Ministers will remain in the capital. Haildi Effendi, who was Turkish Plenipo tentiary at Akerman, is the substitute .of the Reis Effendi." VIENNA, AUG. 22.—The Austrian Observer of tho 20th and 22d contains all the Russian bulletins np,tolb,e arrival of the Emperor at Odessa on the Bth of August, but does not give any new particulars. (From the Hamburgli Reporter, dated August 29.) LEGHORN, AUG. B.—A report was for some time in circulation that Ibrahim Paella- was about to eva cuate the Mama, and was only waiting for transport vessels. This proves to have been an Illusive hope. A vessel has arrived here in 28 days from Alexan dria, and brings letters, according to which the Vice roy, who had already fitted out several transports for the Mem, unexpectedly issued counter orders, commanding his son not to quit it until his supplies were totally exhausted. On board of the vessel just .mentioned, the chief partner of a mercantile house, many years establii.hed at Alexandria, is ar rived as passenger; he is charged to negotiate a loan of 6,000,000 of colonati for the Viceroy ; or, more prop er l y speaking, for the Porte, for whose use the money is no-doubt intended. • - BERLIN, Auo. 27 .--014 r pspers repeat, upon the authority of those of Silesia, that' the 40,00 men now assembled in that province constitute the largest body of troops ever reviewed there in time of peace.

TUESDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 2, 1828. We have already said that Lord HEYTEs- BURY was sent to the Emperor NICHOLAS to demand satisfactory answers as to his future in tentions with respect to Turkey. If his Imperial MAJESTY'S answers shall not be deemed satis jactory—it then remains for the Duke of WEL LINGTON to take what measures may seem best to his judgment under all the circumstances of the case. When the Duke is once moved, we have no doubt the Emperor will have good reason to repent his anger—but then comes the question, whether the Hero of Waterloo will be moved in time—and after that whether his loving countrymen, particularly the Irish, will be ready to jump to the trumpet of the Duke of WELLINGTON, without having their own " little bit of business first settled in a comfortable way." The Duke has been playing we will not say, like an illustrious relative, " Hell and Tommy," at Cheltenham, for he never does such things but with the army ; but 'he has been dancing away the " Blue Devils" at Cheltenham, after having tried in vain to drown them in its medicinal waters—till the sly political rogues called out—" Throw physic to the dogs, we'll have none of it !" Finding himself foiled in his very laudable attempt of administering medicine to a mind diseased, his Grace has hurried to town on Sunday evening—the sailors say that there is no Sunday in seven fathoms' water—and the soldiers, when out of their element, as the Duke is at present, say that there is no Sunday in an enemy's country, for his Grace now feels that the people of England be gin to smell a rat—and ask who is the Duke of WELLINGTON cannot be the same who beat BONAPARTE at Waterloo, for he would not have allowed the Russian Bears to get the upper hand of him so easily. This is the language of the fighting part of the community, and the Duke can surely understand it. It is a great pity for his own glory that the Duke ever covetted the situation of a Prime Minister after the undeniable and satisfactory PROOFS which he gave of his incapacity for that civil situation. In fact, the Duke was born in a bustle—and his after life ought to have been devoted to a profession of which he proved him self at once the prnament and pride. But to leave the army where he could do some good, in order to go into the Treasury, was a—, we cannot call it a cowardly predilection, because that un- English quality never entered into his com position—but it certainly bordered on a foible upon which historians are agreed, with respect to CHARLES XII. " Heroes are just the same—the point's agreed_ From But the Duke has no veneration for the POPE—unless he can procure a Con cordat to make the Irish « easy" on the question of Emancipation. Suppose war to take place—what can the Duke do if he re main at the Treasury ? Gold may get mer cenaries and allies, but it cannot m a k e good soldiers, • such as his Grace would like to fight with. How then ? The Duke must go himself and head the army. We shall never be satisfied till he does, and we are sure the country will never feel itself safe if WELLINGTON slumbers, en trenched behind the old walls of the Treasury. No, the country would like to see his Grace marshalling her warlike bands, in battle array, for then there would be some hope that all was " right"—but when the Prime mover of a great country loiters away his time at a watering place amongst adventurers in matrimonial matters, while the "enemy" is stealing into the strong holds of her commerce—and it may be of her destiny, it is time to ask—is England come to this—and for what ?—not for factious purposes surely, because the mover of the memorable Amendment to the 'Corn Bill, is the very pink of loyalty and orthodox principle. As a warrior, the Duke is unrivalled,—he is equally unrivalled as a politician, as the con vention of Cintra can testify, supported by the testimonials of the blockade of Oporto, and the " no blockage" of . Madeira. Really we have the Duke's fame at heart—we have that 9f the country still more at heart—and as we value both, we implore his Grace to look just as many years before hint as he has witnessed in smiling glory, and ask himself whether it would not be more for the interest of this Pownry, and hi s own eterna l renown, t h at h e should a t once give up a sceptre, which he has ineontestibly pro- R(1 he cannot wield, and , re-assert his own dignity, and that of his coun try, by leaving the fickle glories of the Trea sury for the certain splendour of the tented field, where, at least, he could do some good. His late victories have certainly done the State no service, as the " Corn amend ment"—the no mistake of Mr. HusiussoN— the march of the Russian army, and the no less ominous march of the. Catholic Assp ciation can testify—not forgetting the defeat of his right wing at Clate—that significant train, in military phraseology, to the explosion of Ireland. .If Lord HEYTESRURY do not succeed in his late remonstrance, we shall have war, in order to rescue the measures of the Duke of WELLING TON from a state of perfect repose. That is just what the friends of his Grace want, for they say that with a good war he could dispose of. all their solicitations at a blow--and war is therefore the only thing wanting to blow up-- the Administration. Extracts from French and German Papers will be found in other columns. Though their contents may afford some interest to speculative minds, they add little or nothing to our intelli gence from the seat of war. We copy the following from the Times of this morning, premising at the same time that we had been more than oncerumpted to " show up" one of the fathers of political lies before, but were restrained from the attempt by the hopelessness of painting a certain gentleman so black as his unquestionable merits deserve. For the satisfaction of the' curious who would find it a difficult matter to see a Standard in London, and a still more hopeless task to catch one in the country, we may illustrate the delicacy of our contemporary by saying that this " jackall of dreadful accidents and official news" was got up, when its elder Brother in iniquity— , the Courier, had thrown the last remnants of liberality overboard, as a propitiation to the rising star of WELLINGTON and the return of the " factious" Tories. Since then the Standard has been the " official dog in place,"—and every now and then alarms his MAJESTY'S liege subjects, by howling " Extraordinary News ! the Russians victorious, after a nine days' battle ! —exclusive from the Government Offices !"—For the last month it was a trial of skill with these now Church and State supporters of Government, who should have the honour of announcing the first lies of the day, but we think the Standard has fairly stolen a march upon its rival in of ficial quackery, by beguiling the public with a " nine days' wonder :" lA wretched evening print, which has endeavoured, by all sorts of lies and calumnies, to provoke us to notice its absurdities, but which we shall not honour even by naming, ventured on Friday beyond its usual Court Newsman para graph (intended, no doubt, to mislead into a belief of official connexion), that .‘ despatches had arrived from some Ambassador or other, the contents of which had not transpired," and put forth the following splendid article : PRICES OF IRISH STOCKS, DIVIILIX, AUG. 30. • Bank Stock — .

They are dated the ):3d of this month. Rumour states their contents so be of very considerable importance; but, until they have been submitted to the Cabinet Ministers, it will not be suffered to transpire. " We understand the affair of Shumla has turned out one of the longest contested and roost sanguinary battler that was ever fought ; it lasted nine days, during the whole *f which time both sides fought with determined fury. We believe the battle termi. nated in favour of the Russians ; but the adiantages they gained are likely to prove but a poor equivalent for,the loss it is stated they sustained-0' " If such a paper had any influence upon public opinion, it might be necessary to contradict the trash which it daily publishes ; but as this is not the case, we leave it, as we have hitherto done, to the impunity of contempt." Frankfort Papers of the 27th August contain io news. The following are extracts : FRANKFORT, AUG. 25. Tier Imperial Highness the Grand Duchess Helen, con sort of the Grand Duke Michael, arrived here yesterday from Ems, with the Princess Maria, her daughter, and a numerous suite. FRANKFIORT, AUQ. 27. According to a circular note, addressed to all the lega- tion of his Imperial Majesty the Emperor of Russia, all strangers who desire to go to the principalities of Wal lachia and Moldavia are to be subject, during the provi sional administration and the military occupation of those provinces, to the same regulations as are in force with re spect to persons going to Russia. They must, therefore, have passports given, or countersigned by the Russian Mi nister or Consuls. The Prussian States Gazette of the 27th August, contains the following : TIFLI9, JULY 7. The birth-day of his Imperial Majesty was celebrated at Tiflis with great splendour. In the evening we re ceived the news of the taking of Anaps, which is an event of the highest importance to the tranquillity of Caucasia, becatiae the mountain bAnditti have hitherto obtained front that place powder and arms, and carried on their slave trade. Ott the same day the school was opened for the hostages whom the Asiatic tribes deliver as pledges fur their good behaviour. These hostages will in future be selected from the children ; en their return to their lanai- lies they will carry with them .the example of more civilized manners, and future generations will reap the fruits of the be neficent care of the government. This institution is under the direction of Muschtaid-Aga-Mir-Feti, chief of the sect of Ali, who has been appointed by the Emperor to be at the h e ad of the followers of Mahomet in Russia, and on the opening of the school presented his own son to the pupils as their school•fellow ; Muschtaid received at the same time a gold medal set in diamonds, bearing the bust of the Emperor attached to the blue riband, as a testimony of his Majesty's satisfaction with the services rendered by hire during the temporary admi nistration of Adzhehidjan. On the 25th of June, General Sphagin, military Governer of Tiflis, received, with a letter from the Minister of the Imperial Household, the rich coverings for the altar, and other or naments embroidered by their Majesties 'the Em presses, for the new church at Erivan, which were immediately sent to the Governor of that province as as inestimable proof of the regard of their Imperial Majes ties for that country, the prosperity of which is increas ing under the protection of the Emperor Nicholas. The fortress of Anapa was one of the most important for the Turks. A letter from a Russian officer, who was at the last siege, gives an interesting account of it. In 1791, Count Gudowelsch.laid siege to it with an army of 30,000 men, and, at length took it by storm, with the loss of 12,000 men. Vice-Admiral Pusloschkin was more fortunate, for on the approach of the Russian feet the gar rison, which consisted of only three hundred men, abandoned it. We hoped to be equally 'unity this time, but unfortunately our fleet was detained by contrary winds and 'calms- twelve days, between Sebastopol and Anapa, which gave the Turks time to send ten ships with troops, ammunitios; and provisions. These ships were formed under the walls of the fortress, and we took four of them, awl one thousand Men on board. One of those had a finnan from the Sultan, announcing to the Pacha of Anapa, that he had ordered 10,000 nun to be sent to reinforce the garrison. It is remarkable enough that the Sultan calls Anapa the key of the Asiatic coast of the Black Sea. • BEALIN, AUG, 26. Hie Royal .

By a mistake of the Printer, part of Mr. SHIEL'S speech was yesterday tacked on to that of Mr. MORRIS, the transposition had only this effect, that it made the speech of one Orator more tame, while it added to that of the other a little absurdity, and a great deal of fire.

SPORTING EXTRAORDINARY, OR SPORT WITHOUT GAME. We are informed, by a Correspondent, that the heat of the weather was so excessive during the last week in the North of England, that three distinguished sportsmen were compelled to quit the moors which lie on the west of Northumberland, whither they had journeyed several hun dred miles for the recreation of shooting grouse and black game, without being able to kill a single bird. We are hippy to add, that the report of one of these gentlemen having suffered from a coup de soleil is without foundation ; the event, however, has given rise to a great deal of plea santry in the sporting circle of the neighbourhood, and although the gentlemen escaped being fried in the field, they have been throughly roasted in the Cabinet, and we are now requested by our Correspondent to finish them in the SUN. The Earl of R,ADNOR, we have been in formed, has discharged every one of his game-keepers, and given his tenants liberty to sport over his lands..-..Devizes Gazelle. On the 12th inst., notwithstanding the bad ness of the day, Lord &CLIO and another gentleman bagged 99 brace of moor-fowl, of which his Lordship killed 64 brace. —Edinburgh Observer. PARALYTIC ATTACK OF JUDGE HEY WOOD.—We regret to state, that we have received intelli gence that Mr. Ju•tioe Hzvwoon has had an attack of pa ralysis at Haverfordwest, and that the business of the Car marthen Sessions must in consequence be postponed. The Sheriff and a large party, as usual, went out in proces sion to meet his Lordship, when they received the above distressing intelligence, which caused them to return. Sir W. OWEN, the Attorney-General, in apprising the public of the melancholy event, stated that he would lose no time in transmitting an amount of it to the LORD CHANcxtion, and he would, no doubt, make everyarrange ment for furthering the business of the Court, and for re medying the inconvenience which has resulted from the un fortunate interruption to the transaction of the legal busi ness of the Court.— Carmarthen Journal, Aug. 29. The Athlone Liberal Club opened the cam paign against the Corporation yesterday. Twelve of the Members made applications for freedom, on the grounds of birth and servitude, residence in business ) &c. &e. The applications for the trades commence in lees than three weeks, they are so numerous. Mr. J. C. Die ox, the active and efficient Secretary to the Club, served the appli cations.

RIO JANEIRO, JUNE 20.—This morning his Imperial Majesty of BRAZIL paid a visit, accompanied by the young-Queen of PORTUGAL, to the Ganges, flag-ship of the British squadron. He spent three hours on board, and appeared highly pleased with his entertainment. MR. LAYNG.—Verily loyalty must be at a sad discount, when we •find that Mr. LAING, the upholder of his Sovereign, and the defender of his Crown, is again at his shilling speculation.—We wish to cornet a calculation which we hazarded upon the occasion of his last meeting— we put down his probable receipts at " nothing," we find, however,. that they actually amounted to 17 shillings . . We did not think that there were so many flats in the Metropolis, now that the tows, to use the fashionable phrase, is empty. - - NED NEAL AND NICHOLLS.—It will be re collected that the match between these men fell to the ground in consequence of NteiroLt.s not having made good the last deposit, and that the Oa already deposited was declared to be forfeited to NEAL. We are, however, glad to find that the match has been again renewed. It appears that a liberal supporter of the ring, not rainy mike from London, promised to give 50/. to be equally divided between the men, upon the condition of the fight taking place in the neighbourhood of his residence. NICItOLLS has new offered to give up his share of this liberal contribution, and to assign it to NEAL, who has on the other hand con vented to abandon his claim /to the 60/. forfeited to him, and to permit the entire stakes to be made good.
