I M W NM 7 = = A P-At3PER'p EXCURSION. On Saturday a pauper of the nam e o f M'Ken zie, well.and fashionably dressed, applied to Mr. , DyER, the Sitting Magistrate at Marlborough street, for relief from the parish of St. Giles, o n the ground of destituti on , an d a claimant on the parish, by having occu pi e d a house of 701. per -:ear, in Bernard -street, Russell-square. Air. Wilson, of King-street, Bloomsbury, op posed his application on .the ground of having bought him off the parish for the sum of two guineas. Mr. Wilson stated, that M'Kenzie's claim to the parish was not disputed ; about six weeks or two mo nths ago he applied for relief, and was at first taken into the house, after which he was sent to the farm-house at Islington ; from which place he made an offer to the Over seers, that if they would give him two guineas, he would go to his relations 400 miles off, and never trouble them again. As he was - of no use to the parish, they concluded that the cheapest vay to get rid of him was by complying with his request ; and the sum was accordingly given him. During his absence a letter came to the workhouse, addressed to a pauper of the name Tennant, but as he had died in the interim, the .governor of the workhouse opened it, and found it to be one addressed from M'Kenzie, giving a description of the scenes of hilarity he had par ticipated in with the parish money, and promis ing to return to them again. As the letter stated, so Al‘Kenzie kept his promise ; lie re turned on Friday for more money, which the parish refused, till they obtained the advice of the Magistrate. Mr. Wilson handed Mr. Dyer the letter, of which the following is an exact copy : " DUMFRIES, OCT. 12, 1827. " Dear Tennant—l did not leave London (at least Islington) till Saturday, 2 o'clock,Bth ult., and arrived in Dumfries, sound wind and limb, on the 20th. I pulled foot,' as the phrase is, through Barnet, ,Hadfield, Welling, Stevenage, Baldock, Big gleswade, and Eaton, to Bugden, 61 miles from London, before I halted. I travelled, as you must suppose, all night, to make up for lost time; staved at Bugden Sunday, and till 9 o'clock on Monday morning ; proceeded from thence through Stilton to ss'earnford, one of the finest borough towns in Eng land; on Tuesday, to •Grantham, viewed the Old Abbey, which was -under repair; proceeded on Wednesday through Newark to Tuxford; on Thursday to. Doncaster; on Friday to Ferrybridge; and on. Saturday.-to York. Travelled, on Sunday, through Boroughbridge, o vertaken by a farmer's boy on horseback, on' the road to Catterick, got into chat; invited me home with him, stayed all night, a jolly fellow; suited Mae. very well, about 28 miles stage 'that day ; 'on Monday through Catterick and Greita-bridev - (Tell -York -I found it) to Bowes; on Tuesday through Bluff or Brough to Appleby;. on Wednesday through. Penrith to Carlisle, 32 milesa , on ; Thursday, leaving Gretna-green on the right, e tiavelled through ,Annan to, Dumfries, 33 miles., I mention. the distance Of the last two days to show . fresh ; on Friday to Dalbeetie, a large village about i 4 miles from Dumfries, where I spruced up myself to visittelations, making altoge ther- a journey of 363 miles,' comfortably, without a blister; or being in the least footsore. t'o give an accurate - description or detail of my journey would be too tedious for you to read as for me to write, there fore,shall proceed to give you a little account of the niateter I have, spent my time since my arrival in Scotland: After visiting relations at Douglas Castle, Orchardton, Bankand, and Netherlaw, I visited :Dumfries again on Wednesday 2.6 th, it being the grand day of the fair, which lasts- the whole week. It is a very large fair for horses and cattle, as well as shows Of wild beasts, birds, &c. with stalls of every descriptioia es at Bartholomew Fair; stayed till Sa turday, .morning . the 29th. It was one continued feast, eating and drirking all day long, and a ball at night. The seven trades walk with bands of music, banners, &c., and make a pretty show—more life in Dumfries than in any eity,or.town I have seen of late. On Monday, the lst.of Oetober, I visited the remains of the old abbey of Dundrantion, which lies' between Auchan Cairn and the Netherlaw, about twenty-six miles from Dumfries —a very ancient pile and well worth seeing; there are many of th e old tombs in excellent condition, and a curious wind ing staircase which leads to the top of the parapet, to the entrance into which I was obliged to stoop half-double, and continue so till I arrived at the top. It appears to have been intended for some particular purpose, not easy to be guessed. Returned to Ne therlaw, a very pretty seat of my cousin Abercrombie, neer to the sea, and abounds with game. Dumfries races commence on the 2d-7-lest three days, sood racing, and plenty of sport. Returned to Ordcherd ton (my cousin Maxwell) about twenty miles from DumfrieS, on the 4th; joined 3 shooting party the next day—the birds, as yet, ere very well, the weather being very fine. However, we have plenty e e partridges, without any trouble of shooting them —scarcely a clay without, either at dinner, or devilled for breakfast. My chief amusement is visiting re iationa in turn, taking my gun or dog or two with me. who never fail to give me good spott. The wea ther has been delightful till yesterday ; the harvest not quite finished, but will be very shortly. jein ed the reapers in the field occasionally for te sport— ed at least four young wome n to one man : " tbottl , ale and whiskey makes th em cheerful and friskey,' and sing " Harvest home" in good style. on Yester- e day there was a fair at Daibeidie, it lastsonly on day, the lasses were togg'd out ;4 fine style, plenty of stalls, and a crowd of people. F.eas.ting,, drink , ing, and dancing, " t he order of the day, Men seevants out of place wear a green riband in their hats—a token that they want service, and many are annually hired at this fair, I lost a cousin about a fortnight ago, a fine youth, 14 years of age, the son ' of Mr. Maitland, of Douglas Castle, which has, of course, stopped all annetement at the Castle, The family left the Castle on Thursday last, for Harrow gate Wells, where I intend to go in a few days my self, on my way to London, which I hope to see in about a month. 1 will send you a note when I ar rive, if you can make it convenient to give pie a meeting, when I shall be able to give you more pate ticolers of my tsaur. I kave to request you will give ply best respects .to the .Governor, e.nel all friends, not forgetting nurse, and accept the best wishes from your's sincerely, M'KENZI.E," Addressed "Joseph Tennant, Workhouse, St. Giles's in the Fields. Post-paid." 31,1(eozie acknowledged writing the letter, and stated that after the failure of his business as a wine merchant in Bernard -street, he took the situation of clerk, but was now out of employ. Mr. DYER said, the money he had received did not bar his right to future relief. Mr. Wilson must take him into the house till something could be done for him. Mr. Wilson said, he .would order the man instant refreshment, and represent his case to the commit tee in the evening. Film—About three o'clock this morning a fire broke out in the house of Mr. .1. Dawson, Stanley street, Commercial Road, which in a Very short period was entirely destroyed. It has been stated (erroneously, we undertake to say,) in some of the London and other newspapers, that the, Rev. 3. B.

JAssv, OcT. 15.—After several days of excessive heat (yesterday Reaumur's thermometer was at 24 in the shade), we had in the evening, at 35 minutes past eight, two violent shocks of an earthquake, ac companied by a subterraneous noise. Happily no damage was done. ODESSA, OCT. 16.—The merchants begin to take courage, since there is no change, or appearance of disorders, at Constantinople. We have news from that city to the 9th. Every thing was tranquil, and the Dragomans continued to transact business with the Porte not connected with the intervention.— diugsburgh Gazette. PARIS, Nov. 3.—The Gazette de France an nounces, under the head of Corfu, that the Russian fleet arrived at Zante on the 10th. Letters from Rome of the 20th October say, that by order of the Pope, excavations are going to be commenced, in the month of November, for the dis covery of antiquities. They will begin in the space between the Coliseum and the Temple of Venus, and be continued without interruption in the quar ters near these two edifices. (From the Journal des Debats of Friday and Saturday.) MARSEILLES, OCT. 25.—Among the vessels of the Levant Squadron, there are several very much out of repair, and which might even be destroyed. Some small vessels are now constructing at Toulon, which are very much wanted, particularly if the Algerine war continue during the winter, which ap pears very probable. The sixty-gun frigate, intended for the Pacha of Egypt, built by M. Cerisy, will be sent to sea by the builders of merchant vessels. It is deferred till the arrival of the Marquess de Lioron, who is now at Paris. It is expected that no accident will take place with respect to this vessel, as the constructors of it are very skilful and experienced artificers. (From the Courier Francais of Friday and Saturday.) PARIS, Nov. 2.—General Brant, Count de Bar bacena, is expected here from Rio Janeiro, for the purpose of communicating verbally to Don Miguel the intentions of the . Emperor. He is privately charged with negociations for the Emperor's mar riage with an European Princess. (From the Constitutionnel.) (EXTRACT OC A PRIVATE LETTER.) BUCHAREST, OCT. 13. —According to letters from Constantinople the negociations about the pa cification of Greece are prosecuted with much ac tivity ; but the Ambassadors of the three Powers which have agreed to interpose in the affairs of the East met with difficulties notwithstanding. The signatures of the Greek Chiefs have produced no effect in Constantinople, with the exception of those of Varnakoti, and the younger Gogo, who joined the Turkish side, in the second year of the revolution. The rest of the subscribers are un known men. The English Ambassador has pro duced a second list of the names of the distinguished families of Continental Greece, such as those of Botaaris Notis, and hit four nephews ; Zave)las Con stantin, and his five cousin germans, the remainder of that family of brave men ; those of Panourias of Salona, of Logothetis, and of Nacos of Livadia (the last is one of the members.of the existing Government of Greece) of Chormovas of Cheliots ; of Crieziotis of Coletti; of Zercas of Vaias ; of Doupiotis of Live ris ; of Erican of Mavromatis (one of this family has been nominated Minister of Finance) of Tri compi of Caratossa, whom the whole of Olympus acknowledge as their Generalissimo, &c. The num ber of those families, which Mr. Stratford Canning req....res to be acknowledged in the commission he has put forth, amounts to 230, and all of them reckon several brothers and cousins, the whole of whom have performed some part in the actual struggle of Greece. X XTRAC TROM OUR PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE. LISBON, OCT. 17.—The Perle and the Tejo are to put to sea to-morrow, to bring home Don Miguel. His Royal Highness embarked on board the same frigate to leave the kingdom, in consequence of the events of April 30, 1824. On the 15th, the Government Gazette contained the following Con stitutional passage :—" The King Don Pedro, bear ing in mind the word of his august brother, engaged in the solemn and explicit promises which are engraved in the memory of all his subjects, and written in thousands of public documents—promises which guaranteed a Constitution adapted to the state of civilization, and of our manners; and his Majesty having united the dignity and power of the Throne he inherits with the happiness of the Nation, has i decreed, drawn up, and caused to be sworn to, the Constitntional Charter of the Portuguese Monarchy." —The following official document will throw some light on the history of the late events in Portugal :—, " Most Illustrious and Excellent Lord—Her Royal Highness the Infanta Regent orders, in the name of the King, that your Excellency will transfer your residence from the town of Collares, to that of Oeiras, till she has put into execution the project she has formed, and for which your Excellency has demanded the permission of her Royal Highness, and which the Infanta has given to you. I make this known to your Excellency. It will he proper that the transfer should be made before the night of the 4th instant. God preserve your Excellency. (Signed) " Count DA PONTE. ~ Villa das Caldaa da Ilainha, August 2, 1827. " To the Most illustrious and Most Excellent Joao Carlos de Saldanha e Qliyeira." This arbitrary order was written by the Ex-Mini. stet Dg. Ponte. The project alluded to is Saldanha's demand of passports, to go to Rio Janeiro. There he might give Don Pedro verbal information as to the state of Portugal. His passports have been refused, but be has been invited to go either to France or England, which he has firmly refused. 'He conti nues to live an exile, and has never quitted his re treat since his dismissal. There are about 3,000 patriotic Spaniards in Portugal, whose zeal has been liao]prad by diplomatic intrigues and a local police, and they are now filled with uneasiness. (EXTRACT pp A/41111ER LETTER. ) On the 15th, a Council at Ajuda determined, it is said, that the two Chambers should meet at the beginning of the next month, which has dishearten ed the enemies of the Charter. One of the condi tions which the Emperor Don Pedro has imposed, it is said, on his brother, is to keep the Marquess of Chaves and Viscount de Mosellos, and the other chief opponents of the Charter, out of the kingdom. There have been some more arrests latelyonly one perspn, the Censor of tilt Gazette of the Poor, has been set at liberty on bail—a favour which the Editor of the Constitutional Gazette also expected to obtain, but ;spparently without reason. All the persons who were arrested on account of the events of July will remain in prison till the return of Don Miguel. The officers who were arrested are to leave their prisons, but to remain within the city and its suburlit. MADRID, Our. 20.—(Private Correspondence.) —A Decree has been received from Tarragona. dated the 14th, in which his Majesty orders, after observing that the Juntas of Purification had dis played an excess of benignity towards persons com protuiFed in the year 1822- 1. That persons declared unpuriflable in the first instance, and afterwards, on appealing, , were purl fied,, and subsequently received either civil or mili tary appointments, shall be dismissed. 2. That persons of this description, who havz not received appointments, shall not be nominated to any. The Ministers of War, Foreign Affairs, and of the Navy, have suspendedeFxeetion of this Decree till they hare represented to the King the serious. inconvenience which will ensue from carrying it into execution; but these three Ministers seem arrived: at the end of their 'public career. • M. Juan Caro, Captain-General of the Province, falls within this decree, having been at first declared impure.— Lt;,,r.1.. C S g l , . - 44 , :&r,rt -_-4.. 4,f .

We received last night the Paris Papers of Saturday and the Gazette de France dated Sun day morning. They are still without intelligence of a decided character from the East. From Bucharest and Odessa it is mentioned that they have accounts from Constantinople to the 9th October, when every thing remained tranquil, and the Dragomans continued to transact busi ness with the PORTE, but not connected with the Intervention. The intelligence from Spain is also vague and contradictory. FERD INAND has, however, given another proof of his folly by issuing a d ecree ordering the discharge from all civil and military posts of persons who, having been- implicated in the affairs of the year 1820, had been declared purified by the second Tribunal after failing to obtain that acquittal from the first Tribunal. It has been found impossible t o carr y this decree into execution, and the M inisters of War, Marine, and Foreign Affairs, have all presented representations to the h INC on the subject. His MAJESTY has also ordered arrangements to be made for organizing and equipping the reduced and submitted Insurgents, and for raising 80,000 Royalist volunteers through the kingdom. The intelligence from Portugal comes down only to the 17th of October. Preparations for the reception of DON MIGUEL went on, and it was said that the meeting of the Chambers would take place in the beginning of this month. Distrust of the line of conduct which DON MtouLL would pursue was very general, and the Governnzent aaz•ette had recently used strong. ,constitutional language, with the evident view of . 4 inducing people to believe that the new REGENT would preserve inviolate all the principles of the Charter. Such tin expectation will probably end in disappointment ! _ _ FRENCH Fulins, Nov. 3.—Five per Cents. 101 f.

Hamburgh Papers of the 30th ult., and the Journal de St. Petersburgh of the 20th, have reached us this morning. The latter contains detailed accounts of the operations of the army in Georgia from the 18th August to the 27th September, from which it would appear that General PASKEWITSCH, with the Russian army, had advanced with little opposition as far as Sardar Abad, the siege of which place com menced on the 27th September. Erivan was not to be besieged till the surrender of the for mer fortress. ABBAS MIRZA is said to have continued his retreat along the right hank of the Araxes. We subjoin extracts, by which it will also be seen that the Emperor of RUSSIA has appointed his eldest son Hetinan of all the Cossacks T. PETNILSBURCH, OCT. 15. The ceremony of the baptism of his Imperial Highness the Grand Dnke •Constantine Nicolaevitsch, took place yesterday. By an Order of the Day of 14th October, the Emperor has been pleased to appoint his Imperial Highness the Grand Duke Alexander (his Majesty's eldest son) to be Hetman of all the Cossack troops. NEWS FROM THE ARMY.—GEORGIA. ST. PETERSBUROI, OCT. 20. General Paskewitsch having received from Lieut.-Ge neral Krassovsky information that Abbas Mirza had ar rived near Erivan with a considerable force, and the ac count of the battle fought on the 18th (30th) August, near Etchmiadzine, left his camp at Karababa the 27th (Bth September), to go to Lis relief, with the whole regi ment of the guards, those of the grenadiers of Georgia, of infantry of Schirvan, the 7th of carabineers, the regi ments of hulans of Tchougveugtlf, of dragoons of Nizni Novgorod, of the Don Cossacks of Ilovaishy, Schamscheff, and Karpoff, and thirty piecetrof cannon ; leavieg at Ka rababa the other troops of the principal detachment, ander the command of Lieut.-General Prince Eristoff. These troops united on the 10th Sept. at Nakhitchevan, and began their March towards Erivan on the 11th ' mean time word was brought that Ali Naghi Mina and Hassan Khan, were encamped near Tchors. In order to hinder them from harrassing the rear of the detachment of Gene ral Paskewitsch, Prince Eristoff, who remained at Kara baba, r-ceived orders to fall back on Nakhitchavan, and to effect some movement on Maranda, Tchors, or Nlakon, ac cording as he should find it possible. On arriving with his detachment in the district of Scharour the 12th Sept., General Paskewitsch learned that Abbas 141irza was still encamped near Erivan on the Zanga, above that fortress. On the 13th, 14th, 15th, and 16th of September, the detachment continued to advance without opposition ; parties of the enemy's cavalry watched its Motions, but did not pass over to the left bank of the Araxes. On the 17th, General Paskewitsch arrived with his de tachment, at Etchmiadzine, where he found Lietit.-Gen. Krassovsky. News was received that Abbas Mirza had quitted his position on the Zanga, and gone to the castle of Karakaly, on the Araxes, 15 wersts beyond Sardar Abad. On the 18th, Lieut.-General Krassovsky advanced from his camp, at Djanghili, towards Erivan, with the first di vision of the park of heavy artillery, the other two divisions of which soon followed him. A considerable portion of the inhabitants of the provinae of Erivan having'taken the resolution to join us, their envoys waited on the 20th of September, on General Paslcewitsch, requiring him to send troops to meet them, and offering him some hundred cbetwerts of corn. General Paskewitsch accordingly left Etchmiadzine with his whole detachment, which he reinforced with a battalion of the regiment of Kabarda, to approach the Araxes, towards the salt mine of Kolpi, near which almost all the in habitants of the province of Erivan were assembled in the mountains. On the 22d of Sept., this detachment passed the night in the village of Kale-Arkh, where Oussoup Bek, Chief of Kolpi, accompanied by the elders of the Armenians of Kolpi, Aschtarak, Ouschagan, and some other villages, waited on General Paskewitsch, to assure. him of their zeal for the service of the Emperor,. and to inform him that there were at Kolpi 500 chetwerts of wheat and barley, belonging to the Persian Government ; they also proposed to sell him 400 chetwerts of wheat, and some hundred heads of cattle. In consequence of these offers General Paskewitsch ordered Lieut.-General Count Suchtelen to go and examine every thing on the spot, and to get a supply of corn and salt for the camp, giving for the purpose eleven companies of infantry, six pieces of cannon, and all the cavalry (except one regiment of Cossacks) which he was to employ in removing the wheat and the barley. Abbas Mirza, on learning the movement of General Paskewitsch, had descended the light bank of Ilse Araxes and stopped '7O wersts from litchmiadzine, beyond the marshy stream called Karassen, opposite Dervalon, whence he intended to retreat still farther, in the direction of Khoi. General Paskewitsch has resolved first to attack Sardar Abad, and not to besiege Erivan till after the surrender of that fortress. News has been received that the siege of Sardar Abad was begun on the 27th September. BERLIN, OCT. 27. His Majesty has been pleased to grant the sum of 15,000 dollars to the Royal Library, to supply various defects, and an annual addition of 3,000 dollars, besides an increase of the salaries of the Librarians. The exhibition of the articles of Prussian manufacture is closed, the entire receipt for tickets of admission, amount ing to 2;760 dollars, has been allotted by the Minister of the Interior, without any deduction, for the support of the schools of industry ire those provinces, the manufacturers of which took the greatest interest in the exhibition.— Count d'Alhambra and suite have arrived here from Dresden. Dutch Papers of the 4th inst. have also been received, this morning, but they contain no news whatever. Letters received by the French mail, this morning, state that a numerous list of New Peers was to appear yesterday. A partial change of Ministry was talked of at Paris. Accounts from Constantinople, to the 11th October, were said to have been received. Things remained in the same state. We have often called public attention to the I conduct of the watchmen, and our report from Bow-street furnishes another most disgraceful instance of the insolence—the folly, and the brutality of one of these impertinent guardians of the night. A gentleman must not in future hand in the street to have a parting word with a friend, but a rude watchman steps up and orders him to " move on," that the road ma y be deal for the staggering progress of the drowsy Doaberry ! We really do not MI - MEI S~ recollect having seen a case of more aggravated insult and wanton perversion of brief authority than that of last night. The gentleman was not only dragged to the watch house, when standing within a few doors of his own house, but he was locked up for the night, and for what ? not because he could not procure bail, but because the drunken constable and disorderly watchman would not take the bail ! ! After this, people had better talk of public liberty than practise it, at least, after dark. We must do the Magistrates the justice to fray that they expressed great indignation at this abuse of power by the watchman, but --- where is th e ge ntleman's remedy against a fellow who is as devoid of shame as means ? He may indict him, but what satisfaction is there in convicting the ruffian ? The gentle man has suffered imprisonment, and the watchman can suffer no more. The Magistrates say, that he ought to be dis Missed, as being unfit to be employed as watchman—we ask, has he ever been really fit ? It is the curse of our police that characters of such a description should ever be allowed any authority at all—they are surely very unfit to look after the conduct of others, who give such daily proofs of their lity to take care of themselves. We hope that this Dogberry will be not only dismissed, but flogged from Hyde-park-corner to Mile-end—such a lesson would teach him in future to " move on " with meekness. THE FUNDS-(THIS DAY). CITY, TWELVE o' CLOCK. .The English Funds are still inactive, notwith standing the old rumour has been revived of the Ex changes being likely to be lower this afternoon, and consequently less favourable to this country, which might lead to an export of gold. It is here proper to observe that the' alarm on this subject is quite unnecessary, as at the present moment even bar gold cannot be exported with any profit, and before sove reigns could be sent out as remittances under the same circumstances, a further fall of one per cent. must take place.

A Meeting of the principal Merchants con cerned in the Turkey and Levant Trade took place this morning at John's Coffee-house, Cornhill, in order to consider the best mode of making application to Government for the purpose of putting some effectual stop to the alarming and long continued acts of piracy committed by vessels under the Greek flag, and which has proceeded to such an extent as almost to put a total stop to all commercial trade. A committee of six gentlemen - was eventually appointed, for the purpose of communicating with the Government on the subject, and ►waking such representations as the urgency of the case re quired. The following Notice has been posted at Lloyd's, which shows that no flag or voyage is secure from these despe radoes :—" Leghorn, Oct. 22, 1827—The Swedish brig M ar ia has put in here, having been plundered by the Greeks, off Tunis, of a quantity of dollars.

The officers at Tarragona, who have taken the benefit of the am nesty, enjoy perfect security. At Mataro, an indi vidual having said something insulting to one of those who have received pardon, and whom he re cognised as having levied a contribution on him, was arrested, and is to be tried. The principal leaders, it is said, have entered France, certain of being se cure there. The road is now safe, and couriers will pass and repass as formerly." PERPIGNAN, OCT. 27.—(Private Letter.)—Some rebels, forming a part of the body commanded by Gerardin, have been shot at Reus, after a trial by Court-martial. On the vineyards of Montblanc, the Chief Nuiez, with a party of 800 infantry and 100 cavalry, made an 'attack on the village of Cornu dello, where they committed excesses. They were surprised by a party of Royalists, and most of them were cut to pieces, and those taken prisoners were shot. Several ecclesiastics have lately been apprehended, which event bas produced a very lively impression at Barcelona. A petition has bee►► presented by the Trappists.at Montelinvenart, representing, that what had been done by them during the late criti cal period, was only caused by their wish to see his Majesty in the full possession of absolute Sovereignty. Eleven rebels, who were in the prisons of Figue ras, were tried yesterday. One was shot; five re ceived the bastinado, and were condemned to the galleys. The day before yesterday, General Monet arrived at Puycerda with 1,500 men. PRICES OF STOCKS %HIS Bank Stock 2lO 11 3 per Cent. Bed 9 6 % 3 per Cent.
