For smite time no information could be obtained ou this matter, but now it is said that several pa pers have been seized, which give very circumstantial in :formation;-and that the principal members are thus known.— Most of them had left the Universities, but they preserved - a connection with several persons at the Universities, and of the latter many have been arrested, particularly in Western Prossia. Several young men .who have not •completed their studies, are implicated in this business. All those who have .been arrested have been sent to Berlin, where an inquiry is to be immediately set on foot into -secret societies. This is a melancholy thing for the friends of order and of monarchy. (I'rern - the Courier Francais.)

Extract of a Private Lett:r. )--Thc: siege of Missolongo and the Island of Anatoli eon by Moustapha, Pacha of Scodra, •l aste d 54 d ays ; h i s at . tarits were directed almost exclusively against this island. Ac cording to correct information, the army of the besiegers amounted to 20,010; their artillery was considerable, and they tired 3,00 balls into Anatoiicon without obtaining any favourable results. Our garrison consisted of 500 men only, mostly in habitants, and they distiguished themselves by their good conduct and firm resistance. By an extraordinary chance the • first ball fired by the enemy struck the church of the Arch angels, and falling on the ground led to the discovery of an an cient well, entirely unknown to the inhabitants. was very convenient, as there was a great want of water during the siege, owing to the well which usually supplied the town being 'on that side possessed by the Turks. The inhabitants, in fact, Gran to bring water from Missolongo, and the people did not 'fail to attribute this new suppl to the favour of the Arch- ' angels, the protecto rs o f this island and of our just cause.. increased the confidence of all. .Seven thousand olive trees were purposely destroyed by the enemy, and his balls --threw dos n a greet number of houses ; but the establishment -of our independence will amply repay us both for our past 'losses, and those we may yet be called on to sufrer. The Pacha of Seodra effnted his retreat with treat precipita tion, leaving behind him baggage and ammunition ; one corps of his army almost wh.clly Perished in the difficult passes of Valtos. The other corns; reachine• Epirus, were attacked by the Albanians, who lave declared for the Ureeks, and who caused the Pacha a eery considerable loss.

HUNT'S CONFESSION. (CONTINUED.) After dinner Probert said, " Have you got every thing you want, Jack?" " N o ," answere d J o h n Thor tell, "we must send e for a six-buahel sack, a hank of cord, and the horse and chaise." Probert said, "We must 'have some punch, Jack, before you start, and we must order,it di rectly, because it will not do for you to keep him waiting." It was agreed that John 'Mullen was to start first, and Pro beat and I were to follow him in about three quarters of an hour. I wished to stop and take some punch, but Probert told me I had better be of E, an d get't he things for Jack ; and as we were to remain for three-quarters of an hour, we could have some punch together after he was gone. Besides these things, I was sent by Thomas Thurtell to get a box-coat belonging to him, which wa s a t M r . C r ibb' s, i n P antos-street ; and alio with a note to the man who was in possession at the Cock, for a coat and red shawl of John Thurtell's, which were left in his room. This red shawl was the same which John Thurtell had round his head when he intended to destroy Woods, in Manchester buildings, and which was afterwards found round the neck of Mr. Weare. • .1 went to Probat's, the stable-keeper, to hire a horse and chaise ; they had no chaise, but they lent me a horse, and I got a chaise at Mr. Cross's. It had been previously arranged that I should say I was going to Dartford, and 1 did so. I then wentdo Buckingham's, in Broad-street, and there bought a sack and a hank of cord ; also to Cribb's, for the box-coat ; but as'he was not at home, 1 could not get it. I then went to the Cock, and on delivering the note, got the great coat and red shawl, anti drove to Tetsall's. When I returned into the room, I found several persons, who were strangers to me, had joined the Thurtells and Probert; I therefore called Probert and John Thurtell into the passage, and told them every thing was ready, and showed them the sack, which Probert examined and said, " I ani sure this is not a six • bushel sack—this will not be large enough for him Jack." Thurtell answered—" Never mind, Bill, we must make shift with it; we have no time to lose." And he further remarked, " What a b y fool my brother Tom is, to have a parcel of people here at a time like this." Probert said, it was a foolish thing, but he was sure Torn did not expect any person, and as they were come to serve him about his bail, he could not well deny himself. Thur. tell then said, " Well, never mind, let them stop and be d—d • I must be off. You go into the room, Bill, an d bring me iom's drab great coat." Probert went and fetched it ac cordingly. John Thurtell put the red shawl round his neck, and- the drab great coat on, and being ready to start, he asked Probert to repay him the 101. which he had let him have to take up a bill a few days before, out of the money for which I had sold a horse to a Mr. Simcock ; and Thurtell said he must have it or a part of it, because he trail no money. Probert said he would let him have part then, and the rest next week, but he had no money himself, and must therefore borrow it of Charles Tetsall, the landlord. ;He accordingly borrowed some money of Mr. Tetsall, and gave it to Thurtell, but how much I cannot say. John Thurtell told Probert not to be long after him, and got into the gig and drove off. After Thurtell was gone, Probert and myself went into the room and had some puneh, and in about three quarters of an hour Probert desired Mr. Tetsall's son to bring his horse and chaise to the door.-- lie then left the room, and in about five minutes returned, saying, " Hunt, th e c h a i se i s rea d y ." I w i s h e d the company good night, got into. thegig, Probert followed, and we drove off. In Oxford -street I got out and bought a loin of pork, at the desire of Probert. We then went on to a Mr. Harding's, a publican 'in the Edgeware-road, where . we had some brandy and water, and again started. On our getting near the Bald faced Stag, Probert wished that I should get out and walk on, saying that he would soon overtake me. It was not at my desire on account of the horse-cloths, as Probert stated at the inquest; fOr so far from my wishing to avoid the people of the lioune, I on the following morning stop ped there to " breakfast With Thomas Thurtell. and Prohert's boy. I had never been it the 'iodise but once, and that was to a supper at the invitation of Probert ; and the cloths were not lent. o me e hut borrowed by Probert for a friend of mine, named Morgan; and I w en t awa y, l ea ving John Th urtell and Probert there. While they were in this house on this occasion, John' Thurtell fought with three countrymen, and they after wards told me th a t, i n t h e con f usion t h e y ro bb e d one of the countrymen of his watch ; w hi c h Thurtell pawned fo r ee s. som e_ where in Lo n d on . an d th ey di v id e d th e mone y between them.got AtotEd to purchaseigevrarewestop eo p r e n d . he was in th e s h op I saw at a corn-chandler's, an d Probert Thurtell and Weare pass. When Probert came out I told him they were gone by, and me went on to Field's; the Artichoke, at Llstree, where we, waited in expectation of their passieg us again and had three or four glasses of brandy and water: - At last the chaise with Thurtell and Weare passed the house, and Probert nugged me and whispered,. "'There they go, we must be after them." Field, the lapdlord, about this time brought us another shilling's worth of brandy and water, and on my exiwessing my anxiety to be off, Probert said, "Never mind, we shall be time enough; for as theireborse is, a hired horse, ate must be nearli knocked up, and as aura is fresh we shall soon overtake them. —We finished our brandy and water, and then Probert set off in a gallop in the same direction they had gone, and on arriv ing at a place where - a road branches off, and which I now know is near Mr. Phillimore's Lodge, but which I was then , totally unacquainted with, as I had never been that road before, Probert said, " You get out here, and I will& on to the cottage, and see if Jack is there, and it' all is right." I accordingly with the horse and chai se as hard a go s t h o e u c t o , u a ld n and down Probert th e went n lane. In our way down, Probert frequently alluded to the money that vies expected to be found upon Weare, and his apprehen sions lest Thurtell should -well it (meaning keep it to himself.) He said, " We know Jack is re very determined fellow, and is suredo do the trick ; but if he do n 't d o th e t hi ng that is right papersby giving us our share, we shall be sure to learn by th e news , and we shall know how to act hereafter." After an absence' of near an hour, Probert came back to the spot where he had left me, and directly he was within hearing, he began singing " Bright Chanticleer pro claims the d a vn, r and when I got into the chaise he said, " It is all over, Jack has kill ed him! " (meaning Thurtell had killed W e are)— I have seen Jack, and Jack has shown ". watch." I said, "H e ' mus t have e t h b e e e m n u a r t d y e r o e u d r man'ssho some n c ti t p une e ?" placeOh yes," replied orb bert, at least an hour, for his horse a nd c h a i se are put up, " and the horse dressed ; but Jack tells me the man had not got so much money as he expected." On our arriving at the cotte Thurtell was leanin g a ga i n st the stable d oor , a nd Probert 's lad was cleaning down his horse. Probert sent me into the kitchen with the loin of pork, and told me to desire the cook to dress it for supper, while he went into the stable to Thurtelli In about ten minutes they came to me in the kitchen, and we all went into the parlour, where Probert introduced me to his wife, saying, " This is my friend H un t, of whom you h a ve so often heard me speak as being so good a singer; and I have brought him down to entertain you." After a little time had passed, Probert told his wife that while supper was getting ready, it would be better for us to get out of her way, and we should therefore go to the ['table and see to the putting up of the horses. We accordingly went to the stable, and Probert sent the boy into the kitchen, and told him tostop there till he gave him further orders. Directly they boy left us together, Thur. tell showed me the gold watch and appendages,' and then he, Probert, and myself took the lantern from the stabl e , an d went across a ploughed field, in order to search for the body of the deceased. As we were proceeding to the spot, J. Thurtell said that he had got Weare's purse, which had only two or th ree sovereigns in it, but that he did not have time to-search i thoroughly for the other money. On crossing the ploughed field, we came directly upon the body, which was lying near the hedge on the inside, and there was a gap in the hedgi, which lied evidently been made by dragging the body through it. The head and face were covered with Th.urtell's red shawl, which also appeared to be tied round the neck of the deceased. I held the lantern, and Probert held up the body, under the arms, while Joh n Th urte ll rifled the pockete. N ot hi ng was found while I was present, ex cept four 51. bank notes, which were taken by Thurtell from the trousers' pocket of the deceased. These were folded together carelessly, and not enclosed in any purse or pocket-booka:— Thurtell and a'robert expressed themselves as being much dig { appointed, and I also joined in similar expressions; but I have now reason to believe that either one or both of them mast have deceived me as to the money found on the deceased ; because it was not likely Mr. Weare would have brought so small sum down, considering the object he had in view ; nor was it pro irable that lie would carry his notes loose, when he had a silk note-case in his possession. This note-case had been taken by Thurtell from the deceased, before Probert and I arrived ; and besides, how should he have been able to tell Probert that the man had not so much money about him as he expected, un- i less he had then made a complete search ? My opinion is, that he had got the money, and kept it in his own posseasion, ex cepc the 201., which he putinto the pocket as a blind to us; and I tun the more confirnied in this opinion, because he afterwards 1 had plenty of money, and h as b oaste d t h at h e cou ld g i ve 3001. 1 to get witnmses to clear him. After the searching was finished, the body was put into the sack 1 had purchased, and which Probert had brought from the chaise, and when it was secured, we consulted as to how long it was to be left there, and it was arranged that the deceased was not to be removed until after the women should be gone to bed, and then the horse was to be taken to fetch the body to the garden so that it might be thrown into the pond until a con venient opportunity offered to bury it. The following is the account J. Thurtell gave us of the cir cumstances attending the actual commission of the murder : " Cri reaching Tyburn-turnpike, I found Weare waiting for me ix the coach; I saw his head looking out of the whacker. As we were going along the dark lane, Weare said to me, " . I)—n my eyes, Jack, here's a pretty place to cut a man's throat, if you want to get rid of him !" Presently after I said to him, " I have missed the Lodge gates ; I must have passed them." Then I turned the horse about, and followed your advice, Pro bert, by telling him hoW nice the country looked that way; this induced him to turn in the direction I pointed, and I shot him through the head, but I have had a great deal of trouble to kill him. I never nod so much trouble to kill a man in all my life, for at one time lie had nearly got the best of me ; for after I had discharged my pistol at him he jumped out of the gig and ran; I followed, and he fought with me till I knocked him down with the pistol, and he then struggled with me with great resolution, and actually got rue undermost. While, however, I was in this si tuation, I took out my penknife and cut his throat, and in so doing I broke the blade of my knife. The Load rushed from him in large quantitieS, and some got down my throat and nearly choked me ; at last when his strength failed him by the loss of blood, I got up. He still lay, and groaned fbr a short time, but I soon stopped that by tying my large red handker chief round the s throat, and dragging him through the hedge. In the struggle I have unfortunately lost my penknife and the pistot, and we must endeavour to find them, lest they should be picked up by somebody, and create an alarm." Probert said it was no use to look for them that night, but he would gceearly in the morning and find them ; and it would be better for him to look for them, because he was known to all the people about, no suspicion would .be created by his being in the lane, and he could take the dogs out with him as an excuse. On returning to the cottage we had some brandy, and then John Thurtell drew the watch fowl chain from his pocket, and. took off the chain, and said to Mrs. Probert, " This belonged to a little Quakeress, a sweetheart of mine at Norwich ; but as I have turned her up, I must beg of you to keep it for my sa k e ." He then placed th e c h a i n round her neck—she received it very cordially, and promised never to part with it. I omitted to mention a circumstance communicated to me about a month before Mr. Weare's murder, and which this al lusion to the Quakeress b r i ngs t o my recollection—it is this : " I was," said John Thurtell, " upon terms of intimeey with a Quaker's family at Norwich, and privately paid my addresses to the daughter, who was, I believe, very fond of me, until a young man who was a friend of the family, and a pretended friend of mine, told the father that I was a' profligate bail character, and ought not to be permitted to visit at their house. The old gentleman told his wife, and she communicated what passed to the daughter, and the girl mentioned it to me. 1 soon after served him out for his treachery ; I took him out with me in my boat, under pretence of fishing,. but I took care he was never afterwards heard of." But to return to my narrative. After we had finished our supper, and commenced taking our grog or mixed liquor, Probert said to his wife, " You think rae a good singer, Betsy, but you must heat my fried Mr. Hunt, who win sing you a song about Betsy, a favourite song of mine." They repeatedly pressed m; and I sung the song he wished ; I afterwards sung another. Probert also sung, and Thur tell endeavoured to sing, but could not get through the song he attempted. About twelve o'clock Mrs. Probert was for ward in liquor;' Probert told her as he had me there, he intended to sit up and e nj o y himself. Miss Noyes should there fore get us the glasses and another bottle of rum, and then they had better go to bed. Miss Noyes accordingly went away with Mrs. Probert, who at the time she left the room said, " I suppose you will make a drunken bout of it, and I shan't disturb you." Thurtell said, " Y es , you may expect to see your Billy come up to bed drunk enough." In a little while after the women were gone to bed, Thurtell said, " We may as well look and see if there is any ehatint about the money," and he examined the four notes, but there were no marks upon them. John Thurtell now produced a small silk note-case, such as is generally carried by sporting men, with different divisions in it for their notes : this was exa mined, but it contained only Mr. IVeare's shooting licence, and a few loose memorandums ;—these, together with the memorandums, were burnt. He next brought out a brown silk purse, in which there were three sovereigns and some sil ver; this purse also was burnt, and likewise a small betting book. The money was then divided between us, by Thurtell giving Probert and me a five-pound note and a sovereign each, - and reserving the remainder to pay for the horse and chaise, and the other expenses. When Probert received his share, he held out his hand and said, " This is a bad look-out—this is hardly worth coming down for, Jack." Thurtell answered, "It cannot be helped. I Thought. Bill, .we should have had a hundred or two at the least, but we must now make the best of it we can. This watch, you must recollect, Bill, will .fetch twenty or thirty pounds.' " Very true," said Probert, "and the gun, if it is good for any thing, wil`fetelrten pounds ;" and then addressing me said, " Go, Pont,and fetch the gun, an d a ll t h e ot h er t hi ngs, and let ' s seeliat they are worth." I accordingly went into the stable, and brought the gun, a small box, and a travelling bag.— Probert looked at the gun and said, " This is one of Manton's make; it will . bring at least ten pounds." He then laid hold of. the box, and said to Thurtell, " This is the back gammon board you were speaking of, Jack." " Yes" said Thurtell, " that i s t h e board to pick. up a flat with."— Probertsaid, " Come, Jack, let's open the bag, there may be some money in that." Thurtell then took out of his pocket a handsome penknife, which he said-he had taken from Mr. Weare's coat pocket, and cut the bag open, while Probert held it up. The bag contained some linen, several waistcoats, and a shooting dress ; also, two pair of dice, which I understood weee loaded, and two or three packs of false cards. One pack of the cards Probert kept, the others were put again into the bag with the linen. Probert also took a yellow silk hand kerchief, which was marked with Mr. Weare's name, and Pro bert burnt out the mark over the candle. After this division, it was proposed to go and fetch the body, and accordingly we all three went to the stable; and the bridle being put on Thurtell's horse, he and Probert went across the ploughed field, while I re mained near the house to see that all was quiet, and if I found any one stirring, to give an alarm,and prevent their being seen on their return. In a short time they came b ac k, Thurtell leading the horse and Probert holding the body, sosas to keep it across the hcrse, without falling. - The horse was led into the garden near to the pond, thrown and the body was there froth the horse's back into the greensward by the side of the pond, when-Thurtell ob served that the body would not sink unless some stones or some thing heavy was put into the sack ; whereupon Probert said he would get some of the large flints from his shrubbery, and lie accordingly went and brought several large stones, which were put into the sack, and the body was thrown with a swing, by Thurtell and Probert, into the pond. Before the body was thrown in, Probert said the feet would probably rise up, unless some thing was done to keep them under water; and to prevent it, he tied one end of a string to the dead man's legs, and kept the other on the bank, and when the body was sunk, he drew the string so as to keep the legs down, and fastened the end to a particular spot by the pond side, where he said he.coulcl readily find it, and draw the body ashore whenever he wished. After the body was thus disposed of, we returned into the parlour, and Probert said he would go up stairs and see if his old woman was asleep ; he remained absent a few minutes, and on his return we entered into conversation, and sat drinking until about two o'clock, when Probert left us and went to bed. In the course of this conversation, Mr. Probert said, " There cannot be a better place in the world than this to get red of that b —y thief, Holding; you know how he has robbed me, Jack, and it will be easy to get him here and finish him in this parlour, and as you know I must soon leave this cottage, it must be done quickly." Thurtell 'said, " You have only to say the word Bill, and it is done." Thus ends the history of this eventful night.
