SHOCKING FATALITY. An inquest was held by Mr. Wood, coroner, -yesterday, at the house of Mr. Myers; the sign of Lord Nelson, in Walmgate, in this city, on view of the body of Mr. Henry Hill, of the steam-mill, in Walmgate, who met with his death on Saturday evening. John Webster—ls in the employment 'of Mr. Hill, at his steam-mill ;en Saturday evening. witness went, :along with. the de ceased s brother into the engine-house, in con sequence of the brother having inquired if he had seen the deceased, he wondering what had become of him. The door of the engine-home was open, and they both went in with a lamp. They saw the deceased's hat lying on a step, and Robert Hill went for his father, who desired that the engine might be stopped, which was accord ingly done. Robert Hill then put a large iron poker into the sink hole, which contained about three feet of water, and on feeling at the bottom he said the deceased was there. John Dutton, another person employed at the mill then went down, and raised him up, and with the assist ance of the others got him out of the place. John Dutton last saw the deceased alive at five o'clock on Saturday evening. On hearing the alarm given, between seven anti eight o'clock, he went and assisted in getting him out of the sink hole. This witness described the deceased as very much bruised in his body, that his left side was torn open; and his left arm broken in two or three places. His breast was likewise cut open about three inches, and part of his entrails were torn out. `Wm. Field, employed at the mill, deposed to having seen the deceased for the last time, about half-past five o'clock, and gave him some silver, and he then appeared fresh in liquor, but he knew what he was about. The jury returned a verdict of " Accidentally killed by the crank of the steam-engine."---lleo dand, one Shilling.—York Courant. ROGUES AND FOOLS. - A community of sheer rogues would destroy itself, like two. millstones without the intervention of a materia Ito Le_ ground. A na tion of fools would be devoured by their neigh bours ; but a society compounded, of the two, with a preper intermixture of those who are, in their own persons, a happy mixture of both, is admirably calculated for the maintenance of " so cial order, and the relations of civilized life."— Folly is, therefore, the ultimate of all that is brilliant and elevated in social 'polity, With out fools, we should.. have`.,neither kings, nor bishops, nor judges, nor generals, nor -police magistrates, nor constables ; • or, at least, if such things existed,' they ~ vould be constitnued so differently from those which at present bear the name, that they would. no longer •be worthy of it. They would bestripped:of all the sublime and beautiful in which they. now rejoice ; and the polished Corinthian :Capital would be divest ed of the better part of its gilding,and ornament. There would be no sinecures, no pensions, no reversionary grants, no proconsular colonies, and no close boroughs to claim them : nothing, in short, to distinguish men from the beasts Of the field ! This is the very touchstone of pOlitical science ; anti yet men go on abusing the block heads and dolts, as if they were a superfluity in nature, and a let and a hindrance to the public as large. But the matter does not reach here. Banish folly from the intellectual complex, and the major part even of the honester eallings must cease and be abandoned. The world would be come little better than one vast t.uli 'of DiogeneS, and its population would be as'unaCCOrnmodated and as idle as the people of Ireland. If the simple desire of fencing out the inclemency of the elements alone presided over the choice of our habiliments, and nothing were granted to folly and ostentation, what would become of the tailor, and of the milliner and mantua-tnaker ? It is folly and vanity that render these trades a means of genteel livelihood to so many worthy citizens ; and without them the Stulzes and the Herbots would pine in the same. hopeless obscurity as the vilest coinitry botch. How itttle of the twenty yards of silk which 'my wife asures me is indispensable to the building of a decent evening dress belong to wisdom and pro priety ; and how much is dedicated, under the names of gigots, vaults a dent, rashes, and furbelos, to the service of folly ! How little of the stupendous and complicated eiece of archi, Lecture, called a bonnet, depends upon the ca pacity of the head which bears it ! The helmet of the Castle of Otranto is but a type of its mar vellons disproportion. Like the interior of St. Peter's, at Rome, the first aspect of it over whelms the spectator with a deep sense of awe, and impresses him wtth as full a conviction as death itself of the microcosm of man.---New Monthly.

Those of our readers who look over the Lon. don Papers may possibly have noticed some very violent and vulgar attacks upon the character Znti deportment of the Portuguese refugees at present in this town. They were inserted in a Morning Journal and two Sunday prints, each of ultra-Tory and anti-Catholic principles ; but, not only have the unfortunate emigrants excited the spleen of these writers, but their cause —the cause of justice, free dom, and legitimacy—have also been most foully assailed. Surprise, however, will give way to regret and indigna tion, when we mention that these very papers are paid by the agents of MrueEL to advocate his despicably treacherous cause.

Owing to the prevalence of rery dense fogs, we have received no French Papers to-day ; but it is said that two Expresses have arrived from Paris confirmatory of the capture of Silistria by the Russians. A great deal of speculation exists at present respecting the eourse which the SULTAN is likely to adopt upon the close of , the campaign, supposing Silistria to fall as well as Varna. Some think that he will consent to negotiation, because he can do so with honour, while others maintain that he will not, even should Russia make the first offer and abate part of her pretensions, and they fortify this opinion by reference to the in trepid character of the SULTAN, without recol lecting that the. SULTAN is prudent as well as intrepid, and that prudence - wotild dictate mode retion even to the most powerful. It is diffi cult, in the absence of facts, to come to any correct decision -upon matters which, after all, are, liable to be governed by unforeseen contingencies. The SULTAN, though he profess it not; -may be at heart as ready to listen to peace as ,the Russians would be glad to offer it, but neither party likes to make a demonstration of returning kindness, fearful. lest it should be con strued into symptoms of weakness, and advantage be attempted to be taken of it accordingly. It is just with nations as with - individuals. The aggressor is either ashamed or too proud to confess his injustice, and the sufferer will not brook • to add humiliation to dignity offended. But the case is deeply aggravated when religious zeal or national hate is superadded to other causes of discordance, and this happens to be the fact with respect to the quarrel between Russia and Turkey. ' What it is the object, and, indeed, the deter m illation, of the one to obtain, it is the interest of the other to withhold ; and, it is clear, unless the one relax, or the other yield a point or ,wo, that the day of reconciliation is far dis- Mutual compromise is, we think, the only safe mode for both to pursue in the present stage of the dispute. In the meantime, it is stated by a Morning Contemporary, that "in he letters from Constantinople the hopes which ;ant. had been formerly expressed of the PoRTE's having Consented to the intervention of England and France, on the basis of the Greek Treaty, have been unhappily disappointed, as the PORTE'S acceptance was accompanied with con ditions which the Ambassadors of the two Powers in question have considered them selves bound to reject. Mr. STRATFORD CANNING, who had been staying at Poros for the purpose of receiving the ultimatum of the Turkish Government, had, therefore, returned to Corfu. It was, nevertheless, generally believed that negotiations, so far from being interrupted, would acquire additional activity during the season of the suspension of hostilities ; and by those who were well acquainted with the real it was believ e d th a t it situation of the Porte, would at l eas t yield to the pressing remonstrances of . the media tin g Powers, more especi a lly as the successes and progress of the enemy on h the Asiatic side :Lull; thosebeeii of a muc h more of th e co-operat ing nature ing army in Europe; for it seems th at ac cording to late accounts fr om Erzerou m , th e capital of Armenia, Gen. PASICEWITSCII• h a d leached the walls of that city, which was in no condition to make a.defence, and it must soon after have fallen into his hands. Since the con quest of Armenia by the Turks, no foreign enemy had ever come within two hundred miles of the frontiers of that kingdom, so that the present. invasion of it is calculated to make a great• impression on the minds of the ruling men at Constantinople. It may be hoped, therefore, that if the SULTAN has not yet altered his lan guage, it is only because he flatters himself that his apparent consistency and resolution will pro cure him the best possible terms." The Allgemeine Zeitung, of the sth inst., brings us intelligence that the Emperor NICHO LAS had arrived at Odessa on the night of the 19th October, and immediately proceeded to St. Peters,burgh, which he expected to reach on the 26th. The Ambassadors were to follow with all convenient speed. According t o accoun t s f ro m Vienna, negocia tions were still supposed to be carried on between the Poite and the Mediating Powers, through the intervention of the European Ministers now at Constantinople : ODESSA, OM 21. His Majesty the Emperor arrived here on the night of the 19th, on, board the Empress Maria, and immediately proceeded on his journey, accom panied by General Benkendorff. His Majesty thinks to arrive at St. Petersburgh on the 26th. The Mi nisters and Ambassadors from Foreign Powers, who had accompanied the Emperor to Varna, are every hour expected here, having embarked at Varna on the 14th, on board the Panteleimon. VIENNA, OCT. 29. We learn, by commercial letters from Constanti nople of the 10th, that the city was perfectly tran quil. The minds of the people were indeed much excited by the events of the war, but order is so well enforced by the Government, that it can not •be disturbed except on extraordinary occa sions. The Sultan was still in the camp at Ramis Tchifiik, whither the Reis Effendi and other officers of State tvere obliged to go very frequently, in order to take the Sultan's orders. It was believed that negociations were still carrying on between the Porte and the mediating Powers, through the Europeau Ministers still at Constantinople, and this opinion was confirmed by the occasional arrival of French couriers from the Morea, by way of Smyrna. The announcement of the blockade of the Darda nelles had caused a great sensation at Pera ; it was apprehended that, if carried into execution, it would have an unfavourable effect on the minds of the people in the Capital. No want of provisions indeed, was yet felt, but the prohibition of the ex portation of corn from Odessa may render it difficult for the Government to keep its magazines filled in future. Ibrahim Pacha had sent word from the Morea that he found himself obliged to evacuate the Peninsula and its fortresses; at the same time he proposed to the Porte to send fresh troops thither as speedily as possible. It is said that he has com plained much of the manner in which he was treated by the foreign Admirals. The troubles that have broken out in Candia made a great sensation in Con stantinople, and the occurrences there are painted in the most frightful colours. The Emperor of Russia embarked at Varna on the 14th for Odessa. Count Nesselrode and the whole of the Foreign Ministers are to follow his Ma jesty. The Grand Duke Michael, Generals Die bitsch, Woronzow, and Alexander Benkendorff, ac companied his Majesty. Part of the Russian fleet is to remain for the winter in the port of Varna. The Grand Vizier is said to be in the neighbourhood of Bowgas, whither it is said that Omer Vrione, with his corps and the Captain Pacha, have also gone. VIENNA, OCT. 31.—Metalliques, 95; Bank Shares, 10841. The following is from the Austrian Observer of the 31st October : VIENNA, OCT. 31. The Austrian Observer contains extracts from the Corfu Gazette, of 4th Oct., relative to the expedition of the Greeks by sea and land against Prevesa and the Gulf of Ambracia, which, as we hive already an nounced, had various obstacles to contend with. Another article of the Corfu Gazette says, •" By accounts from Zante of the 2d inst., we learn that a Russian brigantine, which was sent to Suda, in Candia, with letters from the European'Admirals, had been fired at from that fortress, and much damaged. On its return to Navarin, on the 27th Sept, with the news of this treatment, the Russian Admiral imme diately sent two ships•of--the-line to Suda to demand 'satisfaction! It was believed, however, that Suda would not have much to fear from so small a force. The latest accounts from Malta, received at Corfu, announced the safe arrival of the Fere Champcyzoise, Vice--Admiral Ricord. We understand that the Hamburgh steamer has arrived at Gravesend, and the Post-office have sent for the letters. The Hamburgh Mail, which arrived this morning late, has been anti cipated by the last arrival from Hamburgh, consequently brings no news. We have received from the City what pur ports to be an account of the fog in that quarter, but the writing is so emblematic of the gloom, that we can hardly read it. It is " darkness visible" truly personified. The fog has been so dense all day in London that business out of doors is nearly at a stand still. The hackney and stage-coaches are mea suring their gloomy progress with all the cautious circumspection of Macbeth creeping into the fatal chamber. Every now and then the cry is heard " Look out there !" " Look out yourself." " Mind what you're about—Murder ! Stop I" with a plentiful addition of hard words, which, unhappily for the lovers of defamation, are lost in the fog. Mr. HUSKISSON arrived in town on Monday From Paris. At the Brunswick dinner on the 4th, the health of the ICINo's Representative was received by the hisses of the loyal company.—Dublin Morning Register. POACHING EXTRAORDINA RY.—A few days ago a gang of poachers entered the woods uelonging to W. E. I. BuLwnu., Esq., of Heydon Hall, Norfolk, between seven and eight o'clock in the evening, and fired upwards of tw en t y s h ots at p h easan t s .

On being discovered, they drove off at full speed, in the direction of Norwich.— York Courcolt. For --At a very early hour last evening a dense fog visited the metropolis, and continued until an early hour this morning. The greatest inconvenience was caned to the stage-coaches and other vehicles iu conse quence, the coachmen finding it almost impossible to pro ceed without the assistance of links, which were carried by persons walking before the horses' -heads.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, TWELVE O' CLOCK. Late this morning the Hamburgh Mail of Fritlay arrived, and letters will be delivered an hour hence; the steamer from the same quarter has also arrived at Gravesend, but owing to the denseness of the at mosphere she has been prevented from coming up to deliver her bags and letters. It is also stated that two or three Expresses have arrived from France, but from all these sources nothing of the most trivial importance. has hitherto transpired. The species of panic which existed at the close of yesterday, when Consols left off at 86f, is supposed to have originated more in the Jobbers realizing their profits than any other cause ; they opened this morning at 86f for money, and 86f for account, and the market has subsequently improved to 86i i; the parties who have been acting for a rise still continue their purchases, although to a limited extent ; this morn ing the Commissioners paid 863.. The new ac count for the 21st January opened yesterday, and some business has been done in it •to-day at 87k; Exchequer Bills 75 6 pm.; India Bonds, 85 7 pni.

The only alteration in the Share Market has been a decline on Imperial Brazilian Mines of one per cent. in the premium, to 36 38; arid Colombian, to 10 9 dis.; Bolanos are 115 130 premium. The pert letters announce the arrival at Dublin of the Canwens, from Oporto, bound to Liverpool, in seven days, but we have been unable to ascertain whether the letters are forwarded; at all events, we trust the same complaint will not again take place that occurred in the case of the James, from that port, when the letters were delayed by the agents a full post, at a period of great anxiety to the London merchants connected with the trade, and who had received intimation of their having letters a day prior to their actual receipt—delay in such cas e s is un pardonable. 11$ Three per Cent.

That the pre mium of 20 guineas paid to voters is no longer to be al lowed ; aad the houses now occupied by very poor persons are to be improved and let to respectable tenants, who are to be allowed to vote according to the dictates of their consciences. Lord GROSVENOR has acquired an immense influence in this part of Dorset, having expended 200,0001. in the purchase and improvement of property. It is re ported that Lord RAnNon. intends to present Messrs. Iltyrrr and COBBETT with seats in Parliament for his Bo• rough of Downton, at the next election. EXTRAORDINARY STRIKE FOR WAGES.— A funeral was about to take place at a village in the vicinity of Guilford last week, and the bearers, who were selected from the inhabitants of the village, assembled at an inn at Guildford, where the hearse and mourning coaches stopped. At this place, it appears, they were too liberally supplied with good things ; for, en proceeding to join the melan choly procession, they one and - all struck for an advance of terms. This was refused, and the ceremony was performed with the assistanc e o f t h e d r i vers an d ot h ers . The disap pointed bearers r e p a i re d to conso l e t h emse l ve s at the ale house, where some mischievous :being: put it into their heads that the corpse had been stolen on the road, and that a mock interment only had taken place. They accordingly went in a body to ask permission for re-opening the grave, and were referred to the parish officer', who sent them off to the clergyman, resident at a .Amsiderable distance.

DAVIS. Mr. HORNE stated that in this cause the last trial that had been directed by this Court had in point of form miscarried, eleven of the Jurymen having been prepared to return a verdict, but the twelfth refused to agree with them ; therefore, under these peculiar circumstances, he was instructed to request his Lord ship to have the goodness to apply for the notes of the Learned Judge. His LORDSHIP observed that be had got the notes. Mr. HORNE then hoped it would not be considered improper for him to ask that the counsel might be permitted to see them, that they might be better en abled to advise what step would be best next to be taken. His LORDSHIP said he should read the notes him self, and afterwards state what further in the cause ought to be done. Mr. HORNE was perfectly satisfied with this sug- gestion. NEW SHERIFFS. His LORDSHIP stated, that it might be conve nient for the bar to know that he was obliged to go away to the Exchequer to-day, to attend the elec tion of new Sheriffs. The Court then proceeded with the List of Mo tions. COURT OF KING'S BENCH. SITTINGS IN BANCO. CRIMINAL INFORMATION. Mr. Common-Sergeant DENMAN moved the Court for a rule to show cause why a criminal in- formation should not be filed against the Editor and Publisher of the Times newspaper, for, a libel on Mr. Brookes, an attorney of this Court, on behalf of whoni he applied. The libel arose from the follow ing facts :--At the last election for the cit . ) , of Wells Mr. Brookes had been engaged as agent for Sir C. Taylot) one of the successful candidates. A Mr. Lovel, one of the voters, applied to Sir C. Taylor, and informed him that he had been offered a bribe by a Magistrate of that County, to induce him to vote for one of the unsuccessful candidates, and Sir C. Taylor accordingly instructed Mr. Brookes to prefer an indictment against the person who had offered the bribe. Lovel, however, would not appear before the Grand Jury, and being the only witness who could prove`the offer, the indictment was consequently abandoned. Aparagraph appeared shortly after in a country paper, which, after re flecting, in some measure, on Mr. Brookes, said that a strict inquiry Was to be instituted into the conduct of Mr. Brookes. This comment he took no notice of, as he wished for nothing more than that his conduct should be inquired into on every occasion, as he well knew it would bear it. A short time afterwards, however, the libel which he now complained of was published. The Times copied a paragraph from a west country paper, and added a comment, in which it was insinuated that Mr. Brookes himself had spirited away the witness Lovel, and that the man who had so defeated the ends of justice, deserved to be himself sent much farther. Mr. Brookes now swore that he did not spirit away Mr. Lovel, but that he tried every thing he could to impress on him the necessity of appearing before the Grand Jury, but that he had absented himself on the day of the Assizes. Rule nisi granted. THE DUKE OF SAXE GOTIIA. LINDENHAUGH V. THE ATLAS INSURANCE COMPANY. In this case, which was tried before Lord TEN TERDEN at the last Sittings in Guildhall, and the plaintiff nonsuited, Mr. BROUGHAM now moved for a new trial. The action was to recover a large suns of money, payable at the death of the Duke of Saxe Gotha, on an insurance effected by the Atlas Insurance Company. It was defended on account of a paralysis‘by which the speech of the Duke was affected, at the time the insurance was effected not being mentioned in the certificate of the medical men. Mr. Brougham now moved, on the ground that no fraud being,imputed to the Duke on account of the above omission, it ought not, therefore, to have in fluenced the verdict of the Jury. The Court ultimately refused the rule. SMITH AND PERRIN V. JONES. This action was to recover upwards of 2,000/. from the Marshal of the King's Bench prison, for allowing the escape of a prisoner in the r►►les, .named Abraham Simmonds. The question was, whether it was Abraham Simmends who had spent the evening at the house of Angel Hart, out of the rules on the 3d October, 1826; or whether it was his brother Elias Sing mends, who was sworn to resemble him consider ably. The case has been twice tried, the last time a very short time since in this Court. The Jury on that occasion remained locked up all night, and a great part of the following day, and at length re turned a verdict for the defendant. Mr. BROUGHAM now moved for another trial, on the ground that his client had procured since the last trial some very important evidence, which he could befor note i i t, b a yn and by l ‘ i y t y have r eado procuredover rsev or known era l affidavits to the Court in support of his application, but Lord Tenterden at length refused to grant a rule.

The LORD CHIEF BARON gave judgment in this cause this morning. It was a question of tithes brought by the Vicar of Dagenham, in Essex, against one of the parishioners, and included the tithes upon peas and other garden stuff, milk, and lambs. The truth of the case was, that the tithes were not objected to, but the mode of taking thent had given rise to this suit, and both parties seemed-1 to have acted in a spirit quite the reverse of wine it ought to have been, for if they had agreed betieVit themselves they would have been saved muiiv: pence. Respecting the principle of tithinriWen: stuff for the consumption of families, it was _a Very easy matter to lay it down, but it was not so easy to apply that principle to every particular case. His Lordship should therefore refer the Aithief,rof vege tables to the Master, leaving the questiolt of-costs, as to that part of the cause, to be decided when the Master shall have delivered his report, statinglbe value of those tithes; his Lordship-aeultriu* -iici sto cuse either party, for there was no cause in which less coxciliation had been shown than in this. iilo - w as to. the tithing of milk, t h e d e f en d ant Mu\ '. cows to milk on the 10th February, 1821, and oni more ou the Bth of March following, and he adopted an opinion (a mistaken one) that the incumbent's right consisted of every tenth milking, whereas the rule required the tithe of the niilk of the day. This rnle was settled in 1780, in the case of Hutchins V. ---, first in this Court, and afterwards in the House of Lords. The incumbent, however, re fused to take his proportion in that manner. Thi s part of the case his Lordship should also refer to , the Master to report an account of the tithe of milk, and decreed that the defendant should pay the costs of this part of the case. The plaintiff's right to peas was not at all questioned, but only the mode of tithing:it. They were gathered in baskets, and then put into three-bushel sacks, every tenth of which was put aside for the incumbent. This was objected to by the incumbent, who now claimed the right to have the peas left until the evening before they were put into sacks, when he could see them measured. In answer to that, the defendant offered to open the sack, and prove to him that it contained three bushels, which the plaintiff refused to accede to. y The defendant added, that if he agreed to the p tiff's claim, it would greatly injure the sale and of the peas, by exposure to the air and stni dU the day. His LordshiP perfectly agreed wit h part of the defendant's case , a n d . sa id it not onl peared the plaintiff's agents re f u sed to accepc: peas in sacks, but they never condescended torn. the defendant liow they would have . theol . ,_.„ Lordship could see no objecti o n t o the three -o ' sack; but the plaintiff might, if h e please fore , wards open it, and measure the p e as; theref or to this part of the case, his Lordship would 0 4 to decree for the plaintiff, and advised him to P . t9 t . ' costs. Then; as to the lambs, it appeared tlb I January, 1822, the defend an t h a d twat,' ft lambs, of which he tendered the plaintiff two days after their birth, but they were refusedid then offered two shillings and sixpence each, 0 0 was admitted to be their full v a l ue ; but th at was refused ,to be taken. The plaintiff 01— w e6 was not bound to accept the lambs until theiocto fit to be taken from their ewes, nor was he h°, l/ 0, receive the money unless he chose. The det r O pleaded, that he had no food on hi s own .farny" lambs, and they were remo%ed to an adjoiaiogd, rich, but it did not appear whether he had 01/ for the t went y- t h ree l am b s; or f or t h e two or11 , 1!)11 the law was, that a farmer was bound to he e l e itt! lambs for th e incumbent until they were fit the ewes. His Lordship therefore decreed ''lo plaintiff, with coats as to this part of the case', conclusion his Lordship hoped these decisions °. settle all differences between the parties. di Mr. CLARKE—I was unwilling to interrupt 1 00 1 Lordship, b u t th e y are ' a ll sett l e d, an d is t# agreed as to what shall be paid in, lieu of tir"! .- die future.
