I 'he Austrian Observer, which arrived last ! ,'lght, contains a report of th* operations of the I, urks and the Greeks, which will be found in "Other column. As usual, the successes of the Greeks are reduced to nothing, and their bites- Ilse divisions highly exaggerated. The Consti tuionnel, on the other hand, contains an article frein Corfu, dated 17th December, which shews that if the Greeks are suffering from civil disseu .l3c'ns, the condition of the Turks is little bettor in that respect, and that the Ottoman Porte, by %en ding th e gran d son o f th e ce l e b rate d, ALL 46 11 e. to .

ROTHSCHILD, jointly with some noblemen high rank, has obtained from Government a g r ant of those lands in North Wales which were f ormerly th e property of Sir HuGll MIDDLETON, but aft erwards reverted to the Crown. These lends, although they have not been worked for a very long period, are well known to contain :) fe of various metals in great abundance. It is therefo re ; proposed, under the superintendance Mr. Rontscumn and the noblemen above al 'Wed to, to form a company and to raise an ade quate capital, for the purpose of working . this Valuable district.

It is not surpris ing that this splendid undertaking, in this era of sche mes of every description, should have raised Peculiar expectation in the city, and it is mate rial, therefore, that it should not be confounded with other undertakings which might be supposed 'rom their title to arise out of it. This has been the Case with the Welsh Mining Association, ,which h as b een mistaken for that in which Mr. OTIISCHILD is conc erne d.

At the end of the Opera when Rich ard the Third was announced for performance this evening►, there were some hisses, some plau dits and some calls for KEAN, but not sufficient to mark the sentiments of the audience in general.

This morning there is a good fresh supply of Wheat, ' Barley, Beans and Pease, from Essex, Kent, and Suffidk, end several more vessels fresh in from the northern ports with Oats and Flour. Wheat, on Friday, had rather improved on Monday's prices ; but to-day the trade is not so good, and although last Monday's terms are obtained for the hest parcels, ~.c the trade is heavy to-day. Barley of prime quality for malting has obtained the terms of this day s'en night, but other qualities are nearly unsaleable, in conse quence of there being some - probability of the ports opening for this article. Beans sell heavily, on much the same terms as last quoted. Pease of both kinds sell at the rates last quoted.

This morning, shortly after Sir RICHARD BIRNTIL had taken his seat, Perry, the officer, was called before bins for the purpose of receiv ing instructions how to act this evening at the Theatre Royal, Drury - Lane. Sir ItscliAttn RIR xir anticipated there would be some. disturbance in the Theatre, hut gave Perry strict orders not to enter the house to take any one out under any circumstances, as the public would pay their money for entrance, at the will and risk of the Managers. But, to prevent any disturbance that might take place at the outside of the Theatre, Perry said they were employed by the The atre to attend. Sir Richard observed, that the officers were not to be ordered by the managers, and to pay attention to the instructions he received. The Theatre, no doubt, would be crammed in every quarter, and it might be dangerous to inter fere with the audience.—Perry left the Office to regulate the patrole for the evening —The other Magistrates concurred with Sir IL—lt is expected that considerable confusion will take place. Tire LAW CounTs.—This being the first day of Binary Term, the Judges, Master of the Rolls, and King's Counsel, breakfasted with the Lord Chancellor at Lincoln's Inn Hall, and from thence they proceeded in procession along the principal streets of the metropolis to Westminster hall,where the respective Courts was opened with the customary formalities. Mr. Justice Bailey did not join in the cavalcade, his Lordship being occupied the entire morning in the Court of King's Bench justifying bail, and there aw a it e d the arrival of his Learned Brothers. A meeting was held on Saturday under the commission against Alststr, STRACEY, and Co. of which a dividend was declared of four shil lings in the pound. Tile total amount proved and claimed is about 800,000/. Of this sum about 250,0001. is claimed by the Bank, and 80,0001. by private persons. The dividend will therefore be on 470,0001.; but it is supposed that the Bank will petition the LORD CHANCELLOR tl payment be deferred until their c l a i m is defini tively admitted or rejected.

[NEW Tra,ty,s.l During the preceding week only one express was received from Paris, a circumstance which has not occurred for a length of time past, and which tends to spew the present tranquil state of the Continent. The business transacted in the Funds on Saturday did not exceed the ordinary extent ; Consols continue firm at 94 1 3 - for the Account. The Foreign Securities did not expe rience any material variation. In regard to those of South America, the alarm of the pre ceding day had totally subsided, but the next accounts from New York are awaited with much interest. From the continued increase iu the new speculations, those already form ed are declining in price, but with a much less rapid movement than they advanced.— Every day brings forth its new Companies ; and on Saturday, two others were added to the number already formed, for the purpose of procuring the precious metals from South America; so that, when the mines are discovered (for it is candidly acknowledged in some of the schemes they yet remain to be so) there will be no lack of Companies, or steam engines of sufficient power to penetrate into the innermost recesses of the earth. After the several Companies and Associa tions which have already bee❑ formed, and met with a success almost unparalleled, there comes forth a wholesome establishment,under the titleof the General South American Mining Association ; so that this Company has " no local habitation," but satisfies itself with the intent of underriduiog the whole Continent of South America. The other Company, which made it - s appearance at the same time, is intended for working the "Mines of Tlalpuxahua," and various other Mines in Mexico, situated 4 ' on the Great Vein of Coronas, in the province of Valladolid." Ca pital 400,00 W. divided into 1000 Shares of 4001. each. This Company has been formed for some time past ; but owing to a claim made by the Real del Monte Company, the bringing it out was postponed until Saturday. [BRITISH PREEN., In another column we have given a long ex tract front the Austrian Observer, in which, as usual, all the successes of the Greeks are reduced to nothing, and their dissensions magnified fifty fold in importance. They must, indeed, be a wonderful people, to have sustained their inde pendence during the last four years, if all that this Austrian Paper had said of them were true; but we ought not to forget that the editor of the Austrian Observer must publish not what he actually knows or feels, but what the censor of Prince Metternich will allow him to make known to the world. According to the statements in this paper, however, it does not appear that the malcontents had been sturcessful. The occu pation of Tripolitza by Colocotroni rests on the authority of an unnamed naval officer, who gained the information we know not where. The rumour that the revolters were in league with the Turks is satisfactorily confirmed. As to the strange story of the 11 ydriot% and Spezziots threatening the Moreots with the landing of the Turks, if the Government was not obeyed, there can be no doubt that the whole is a mere fabrication. The Austrian Observer says, with affected sim plicity, " We have not seen the proclama tion." No, nor any body else ; the paper saves its veracity by not even affirming that it believes any proclamatio❑ of the ki►►d was ever in existence. But if the Greeks suffer from disunion, the condition of the Turks is not much better in that respect. It is manifest that Omer Vrione is suspected, and not unjustly. The Austrian Osbervcr says of him, " If the Porte can get him out of Albania it will he a great advantage to it." Au article in the Con stitution:lel of Friday, dated Corfu, 17th De cember, after some remarks on tl►e arrival of Mahrnoud Pacha, the grandson of - the renowned Ali Paella, at Vasilica,concludes with the follow ing paragraph :—" Omer Vrione knows well that the Porte only wishes to draw him into the interior of the empire to destroy him with the greater ease; but so far from surrendering himself, he will defend himself in Albania, w here he has numerous partisans. Mahmund Pacha, who, on his side, has in the country a considerable party, that of his grandfather, will not fail to meet him. Be hold, then, the war of Ali Pacha renewed ; it is the most advantaceous circumstance that could happen for the Greeks. The most probable sup position in this case is, that Omer Vrione should join with the Greeks, in surrendering to them the places of Arta, Preveza, and Souli, on the conditions upon which that alliance had begun to be negociated some time ago." [THE PUBLIC LEDGER.] The Austrian Observer of the 11th inst. which reached us last night, contains a long article, consisting of reports, collected at Corfu and Zante, on the affairs of the Greeks. It breathes throughout a spirit of rancorous hostility to that people ; and this rancour is so obvious, and in dulged in with so much indiscretion, that it hap pily defeats itself. The first series of reports re lates to the war in Western Greece, in which Omer Brione, though pointed out to the ven geance of the Porte for having abused his com mand, is still complimented for the facility, with which he has defeated all the projects of the Greeks to extend their dominion over the whole of that province. Yet, it is obliged to admit, at last, that this very Pacha, on his return from a predatory incursion into Etolia as far as Vrachori, suffered so severely, that he as obliged to shut himself up in Arta, having abandoned the strong position which he had held with 6,000 men for several months at Caravanserai. It then affects to scoff at a promise, required by Mavrocordato from the Officers under his command, to preserve order and discipline amongst the troops, during a journey which he was obliged to undertake to Missoloaghi, to repair his health which had ' suffered from the fatigues of the campaign. He threatens to brand them as " anti-patriots" if they di s obey his orders ; and this menace i s held up as an indication of the lax sentiments prevailing amongst them. Had they violat ed the parting injunctions of their Chief, there would be some ground for the charge ; but as this is not stated, we cannot see any point in the ridicule. It appears to us on the contrary, quick sense of I t t i o )a n t ou t r i , e w deemed sufficient by their Chief ; but the word—patriot, ; i G ien ree su k ch o a ffic t ; r r e s a l t tav i e s a is sure to throw the organ of the Austrian Government into convulsions of rage, which accounts for the ex travagance into which it has betrayed itself.— But, instead of stating that the Greeks did not execute every thing they had undertaken in the last campaign, it should have pointed out some reverses on their side, and shewn that their cause has retrograded. It is absurd to nibble slight blemishes, more fanciful too than real, in a comprehensive plan of military opera tions, which upon the whole has been successful and even glorious. Before the campaign • com menced, the Austrian Observer had repeatedly predicted that the issue would be most disastrous to the Greeks ; and, now that these predictions are falsified, it vents its spleen in a futile attempt to undervalue their triumphs. The account. which is given of the late disorders in the W ren, has the usual taint of exaggeration in the first place, and, in the next, of falsehood, for they are spoken of as still raging, though it was welt known at Zante at the date of these pretended_ . reports, that they had entirely subsided, and been succeeded by tranquillity. [TIT TIM ES.I The right, or rather the question of right, to report police proceedings, is rather in , a singular position. An imperfect kind of verdict has been obtained against the Herald ; but the Managers of that Journal have given notice of an appeal hi , the House of Lords. In the mean time, a totally different verdict has been since pronounced by a special Jury upon the same act, in the case of the Morning Advertiser; and it is very clear, that this verdict, given in a prompt and unhesi tating manner, will be the precedent for all future verdicts in similar cases. No jury will ever hereafter convict or give damages for a faithful report of a police proceeding. But now, suppose the Lords were to confirm the ver dict of the first jury against the Herald, which is not very probable, after the finding of the second jury in favour of the Advertiser, what effect would that produce upon the practice of giving police reports ? Why, certainly, none at all. We should continue, and so would theother respectable journals, to report the proceedings of the public offices, and should have nothing to fear. The House of Lords, though the highest authority, the Bernier resort, is only a court of appeal.: it cannot act in the first instance, orpre prio motes. But we and the other journalists would have this verdict of the Advertiser as our security for an acquittal upon the first trial. Indeed, %V should be acquitted, beyond a doubt, if our reports were faithful. None of our cases, therefore, cam hereafter come before the Lords, except by An appeal from the prosecutor; and upou such an occasion, should such an one occur, what wonkl Ibe the result ? The Lords, by the constitutions of their Court, could not inflict a punishment, impose a fine, or award damages ; they could only reverse the judgment of acquittal given on , the verdict : the cause would be to be heai4 again, and Juries of our countrymen must and would acquit again ; and that toties quotit>s, if the same case, or similar cases, were sent down to them an hundred times. There is Do, question, therefore, that the law of the land, as it now stands, allows, or rather does more than allow—it sanctions the publication of police proceedings. And let it not be supposed, that in this reasoning we put too little value on the decision of the House of Lords. Juries have as great a right to pass a verdict upon an indictment or an action according to their own consciences, as the Lords to decide upon an appeal. Besides, at this precise moment we are not setting up the Courts of Law against the Court of the House of Lords : we are only upholding theauthority of a positive verdict found and recorded, against a possible, an imagi nary, a hypothetical decision of the House of Lords, which it is more than probable will urger take place. We regret the nonsense that has been talked by grave people, about partial state ments, ex parte evidence, and all that ; we cau tioned them against it ; but the foolish verdict in the case of the Herald misled them. It should really seem that they do not know the difference between travelling all on one side the road be tween London and York, and only travelling a part of the road, but on both sides indiscrimi nately. A police report travels on both sides in discriminately, so far as it goes. [MORNING CHRONICLE.] Few bargains had been made in the Funds on Saturday, either for money or account,and the fluctuation had scarcely amounted to u per-cent. A number of the jobbers had abandoned the English for the Foreign Stock Market. In con sequence of the steadiness of the prices in the former, it had been nearly deserted. Consols for Account opened at 94k, and left oti' a shade higher. The interest excited by the speculations in the Mining Shares, which was so intense during the preceding week, had very much subsided, within the last few days, and they were no longer sought after with that avidity; the consequence of this state of things had been, that the prices of the whole of them have, more or less, been depressed. The Brazil Shares, which hp_ve chiefly regulated most of the other shares, have since Monday fallen up wards of twenty per cent. In the Colombian and Rio de la Plata shares, there has been less speculation entered into, but the reduction has, been nearly as considerable. The Anglo-Mexi. can, which at one time rose to the same premium at which the United Mexican were sold in the market, have been particularly heavy. The re. descriptions of private securities, which have become the subject duction in the price of the United Mexican Min ing Shares have been from 1501. to 1101.
