THE LONDON JOURNALS. DAILY _Extracts from the Morning Papers, Sept. 3, 189.5. [MORNING POST.] The intelligence in the French Papers from Greece is highly _gratifying ; for it confirms all the reports which had already reached us of im portant advantage 3 gained by the Patriots in every quarter, but particularly at Tripolizza and MissOlonghi. It appears that the Greeks'allaw ed the reinforcements landed by the Captain Pacha to effect their junction with Ibrahim, who, thus strengthened, left a garrison of 2,500 men at Tripolizza, and unwilling to tempt again the strength of NapOli, moved towards Carytene. The 'Greeks allowed: him to proceed several leagues, andlhen under the command of generals Iscos and Demetrius Yi'milenti, surprised Tripo lizza, put the garrison to the sword, and freed nine hundred of their countrymen, who had been made captive by Ibrahim in his ad vance. Informed, but too late, by some fu gitives of what Thad occurred, that Commander attempted to come back, but Ypsilanti and Iscos had joined Colocotrotti, who had already gained some advantages over the flanks of the Egyptians, and the whole united force of the Morea stood in his way. Later accounts state that a great battle was fought, in which the Egyptians, disheartened by what occurred, expe rienced a severe defeat, and were compelled to retire to Tripotamia, where the wrecks of their army were completely surrounded. If these statements he as correct as we sincerely wish them to be, it will have been a great advantage for the Greeks that Ibrahim's reinforcements should have joined him before these decisive operations' took place for they will have shared in his disasters, instead of remaining fresh and untouched to repair them. With re-' spect to Alissolonghi, it appears certain that it has repelled every attack • and inflicted im mense loss on its besiegers. On the 9.2 d of July, the third and last assault was given by Redsch'.l i'acha with all his force, whilst 40 gun-boats bat tered the isle of Vassiludes; and thus compelled the garrison to fight on all sides. These boats, however, were sunk by the fire from the bat teries, and on the land side the multitudes who attempted to gain the walls were swept by the cannon in such numbers, that the loss of the Turks is said to have exceeded five thousand men. Meanwhile, Admiral Sachtury, after meeting and burninff on his passage several Algerine frigates, ant.reffecting his junction with Admiral Nenga, appeared off Cape Papas, on which the Capitan Pacha raised the blockade of Missolonghi and prepared for a general action. The Greeks profited by his retreat to provision the town, which began to feel the approaches of want, and from their manoeuvres it was expected that they intended to fight the Pacha. Admiral. Miaulis had been dispatched to endeavour to overtake the Egyptian, fleet, which was sailing back to Alexandria to fetch fresh troops. tTIIE PUBLIC LF.DGEtt.I We have rceived the Paris Papers of Wed nesday, with the Etoile of Thursday. The only intelligence in the latter, respecting Bessieres, is contained in a telegraphic dispatch from Bay. cone, dated Wednesday last, stating, that the pursuit of thii rebel was continued on the 25th tilt: and that he had retired into the mountains of Cuenca. This information was as vague as as possible, is susceptible of any construction ; though its plain interpretation is this, that Bes sieres was still in arms at the- above-mentioned 'period. If it was part of his orignal plan to , gain the mountains, the advantage was clearly ' on - his side, whilst a suspicion of lukewarmness would attach "to the troops who Were employed against him. In the mean time one thing is clear, that the former account in The Etoile, which 'stated that he had been deserted by all his fol lowers., with the exception of about 20, was either false, or that the people of the country through whiCh he had passed was infected With his spirit, as otherwise they would have intercepted the disappointed rebel in his flight. • Ai present this adventure wears a very 'different - appearance to what the French Government seems anxious to put upon it ; and the regular working of the Telegraph between Bayonne and Paris shews "the high degree of importance which is at tached to it. The last Telegraphic Dispatch, instead of tranquilling the public mind, has ap parently had a contrary effect, as the Renics, parti cularly the New, sustained a heavy fall as soon as it was known. The affair of Bessieres has evi _ tlently given the coup de grace to the scheme for the conversion of the Rentes ; and, what is more, if has probably solved the problem respecting the solidity'of Villele's power. Another telegraphic dispatch, of which a copy also is inserted in the announces the arrival at Brest of three Deputies from Hayti; and it is added, with some affectation, that the only object of their mission is'to raise a loan for the purpose of paying off what- the 'Ordonnance requires. From this one would suspect that the French Government was ashamed of its new ally ; and that it wiShed it to be understood that the black Deputies were•not . •‘ enjoy .'the peculiar priVileges, wh i ch b e ing, by prescription, to the -Representatives of Friendly 'Powers: This would be an rnauspiCious : begin- ning, of the alliance between the Siates; bu. 4, be this as it,.,nniY; 'the moment could not have been more titifortunat.ely selected for the . purpose of 'raising a loan,. paitioularly. to so enormous, an innount, and upon such loose security too, as a Gi;vernment like that of Hayti is capa,ble of fur nishing. In the mean time, we are told that the 'firpneli manufacturers are extremely on the alert inconsequence Of the opening of the ,trade with liayti ; but we suspect that . they over-rate the advantages. • PnEcs.] • 'The French Papers at last bring us some news froM Gr'eece,• and it Is, we rejoice to say, de cidedly favourable to the cause of independence; and, it it be'cerfect to the full extent, we may:, .lOolt foiWard to a speedy 'close of the carnpaigw, in the MOri , a, and the entire defeat of the Egyp-' tain expedition. A victory had been gained by the united forces of Ypsilanti and Colocotroni over Ibrahim Pacha, who was blockaded at a place called Tripotamo. His situation was such, that it was expected he would soon fall into the hands of the Greeks. The Seraskier ([tedschid Pacha) had been repulsed in every assault upon l'lissolonghi. His loss was esti mated at 2,000 men. The naval operations of the Patriots , were carried on with great activity and boldness. Miaulis was in pursuit of the Egyptian fleet on its return to Alexandria, and Sachturis had routed the Algerine squadron at Navarino. The Greeks were roasters of the sea, and they could therefore supply all their own fortresses, and distress those of the enemy. All apprehension as to the state of Acarnania was at an end, in consequence of the appearance of the Greek fleet off Cape Papa. The revolt in Spain is not yet subdued. Bessieres is stated to have taken refuge in the mountains of Cuenca. The capi tal and adjacent provinces were tranquil. A te legraphic dispatch from Brest announces that the Haytian Senate accepted the Royal ordinance t 4 purely and simply ;" that is to say, we sup pose 7 without any serious or prolonged discus sion. The three Envoys landed at that port have arrived in France, for the purpose of raising a loan to pay the indemnity to the old colonists. We understand that it was reported very confi dently on Tuesday morning, on the Paris Ex change, that the Freuch Ministry had come to the resolution of sending Consuls to the new American States. This event, may be expected every day. The acknowledgment of the inde pendence of Hayti was only a step towards the adoption of a new and sound system of policy with regard to- the tran s= atlantic Republics.— The question is not what the- French Cabinet would rather do, but what they must do,.in de fence of their commercial interests. [MORNING 11EltALD.I It would appear from our Stock Exchange account, that the panic for the present has in a great degree subsided. The price of Consols for the Account closed at 871 ; for money, therefore, we suppose, had it not been a holy day the price would have been 87. This, however, is a fall of llf per cent. from the highest point they reached. The Debt, there fore, in about nine months, has deteriorated in value about ninety millions. To account for this deterioration is the subject of inquiry ; and no one attempts to account for it upon any rea sonable principle. But, however, the rise in about nine years of forty per cent., or three hundred and twenty millions, was also never reasonably accounted for. The Stock Exchange people said that the rise was in consequence of the depressed state of agriculture, trade, and commerce, which causing unemployed capital to be thrown into the fund market, raised the price of funds. But three hundred and twenty millions was rather a large amount for unemployed capi tal to be estimated at. But, however, admitting the reasoning of the Stock Exchange people to have been correct, it would appear, from the late fall of ill- per cent., that ninety-two millions of the unemployed capital has found its way hack again, and has again got into the price of agri cultural and other produce. The military movements towards the southern French frontiers still continue to indicate the in. tention of at least a reinforcement of the French troops of occupation in Spain. It is certain, how ever, that there is another auxiliary by which Charles X. could assist his Royal brother much more effectually than by soldiers, aild that is money. The want of this is clearly the cause of all the insurrections and desertions that have taken place. Why have the companions of Bessieres deserted with him?—Simply because they were unpaid. Why, in all probability, has Bessieres himself raised the standard of insurrection ? It is no doubt from some similar motive of disappoint ment. Why have the troops sent in pursuit of him joined his standard ? Simply because their pay was in arrear, and the arrear likely to be never liquidated. There is no doubt that French paid would be much more efficient in restoring order than French bayonets. The return of the French will, most likely, be the opening of a sys tem of warfare, as protracted, barbarous, and de structive as that which commenced in 1808, or even more. Buonaparte had a part of the popula tion, and many of the Nobles with him. At pre sent the French would find enemies every where— whether Liberals or Serviles.—(Mid.) [THE TIMES.] The hope which we expressed a few days since, that the discretion of the Catholic Priest hood in Ireland would obviate the ill effects to be otherwise apprehended from a lack of that good quality in some of our Protestant brethren, has, we are happy to say, been realized. Dr. Doyle has written a long and peremptory injunc tion to the clergy of the diocese, forbidding them to accept the challenge from a knot of champions of the Established Church, which we have alrea dy noticed In terms of earnest deprecation. — The purpose of the challenge was, our readers may recollect, to debate again before a nume rous audience, that question which has recent ly produced such an increase of bad blood in Ireland—whether the text of Scriptures, without note or comment, ought to be circulated amongst the Catholic poor of Ireland ? Our ob jections to the encouragement of such a contro versial battle were—lst, that it would retard the spread of the reformed faith, by a renewal of religious animosity ; 2d, that it would defeat one great end of Christianity, by exciting fierce and hostile Passions among Christians, instea d of cherishing the spirit of peaceful charity, so so. letntily recommended by the Gospel ; 3d, we objected on the temporal ground, of its lead ing to political disturbance. The Catholic Bishop does not of course assign any reason similar to our first objection, as one by which he cau pretend to be very cordially influenced. Nor does lie touch upon the last, as the subject of it is not embraced within the concerns'of his spiri ritual jurisdiction. But at the head of a list of arguments on which he justifies the prohibition addressed to his clergy, Dr. Doyle distinctly places the important consideration of the peace rul character belonging to our common faith. " The end of the Christian religion," says he, " is to establish peace and good-will upon earth, "as the means of fitting men far Heaven ;" and afterwards " to the establishment and " preservation of this - peace, the. disputation " mentioned would in itself, and in its effects, be " directly opposed." We agree entirely with Dr. Doyle, in this view of the consequences to be feared from a pitched battle in polemics on Irish ground : and we trust, that the active spirit ,of our Protestant parish Ministers will first seek employment in the care of their own flocks, where they have any, before they attempt to supersede their neighbours in the charge which Providence has committed to them. [NEW TIMES.] The Dublin Morning Register, a newspaper belonging to Mr. O'Connell, and edited by some of his brethren in arms, contains a very long ac count of a Cork Catholic Meeting, assembled for the useful purpose of voting thanks to the said Mr. O'Connell for his exertions. Resolu tions to this effect were carried, as the natives would say, unanimously with one exception—a Mr. Ronayne, who, in the great controversy between Mr. O'Connell and his quondam " fine animal," Cobbett, has (like his countryman, Mr. Richard Martin) taken the side of the ani mal. We do not pretend to be able to decide on the merits of this illustrious contest, nor is it in any way worthy of the slightest attention, further than that it seems to 'be one of the misfortunes of Ireland, that it is necessary to mention such people at all in connexion with its concerns. How ever, as long as the Roman Catholics persevere in putting their affairs into such hands—as long as they will look for advocates in the persons of needy, brawling barristers—as long as they choose their assistants from the libellers of every thing honouredand honourable in England—in a word, as long as they prefer approaching this country with the terms of menace- and defiance, and by the agency of the profligate and contemptible— so long they may look for rejection of what. they desire. That the folks to whom they have given their leadership desire emancipation, is preposte rous to believe. Were it granted, " Othello's oc cupation's gone ;" and therefore they well know ing what will disincline the people of England from granting it, will of course take• every steN as they have long been doing, to excite that disin clination by all the means in their power. Those who view the question of emancipation on an ex tended scale, as a great measure of national policy, and not in reference to the paltry quarrels, and more paltry vapouring, of the Irish demagogues, regret this exceedingly. No doubt a strict philosophy should ren der the people of England indifferent to such things. The measure should be adopted if conducive to the benefit of the empire, with out the slightest referrence to the misconduct of the Roman Catholic 'Advocates. But in the present state of existence, it is too much to expect that strict philosophy govern the motions of mankind. Insolent defiance will beget a spirit of dogged resistance—imper-, tinent vapouring will be met by contempt— and contumelious abuse will produce dislike of those who employ it. These are the wea pons of the self-constituted leaders of the Irish Catholics and when the people of Eng land see that votes of thanks are carried, as sociations got up, aggregate meetings called, all for the honour and glory of such persons, they find it hard to disunite the agitators from the people ; and it is in vain to deny it, that this conduct has infinitely increased the aversion of the great majority of this country to any mea sure of emancipation. [MORNING CIIRONICLE.] The alarm and gloom, in the Money Market reMained undiminished yesterday. Consols for Account, which closed on Thursday night at 87, opened yesterday morning at 86,i, and afterwards fluctuated between that price and 87. Ex chequer Bills were quoted at the' close at 2 discount to 2 pre mium, and a very great question arises as to payment advertised. for - the-27th instant. We observe by the Gazette Exchequer Bills are to be paid off or exchanged at that period ; the amount is stated at thirty millions ; but we believe only a very small proportion will then be arranged, and of that small proportion a considerable sum may be already in the hands of Government or in the Bank of England. Yet still the stated period excites much interest in the Aloney Market. The• usual routine has been to receive the interest dtie, and to take new bills ; but if they should remain at par, or a discount, the holders may very probably demand cash.- The speculators for the fall also anti cipate a further reduction in the French Funds, the abandon ment of the financial plan, and the resignation of N. de Villele. On the other hand, money is rather - more plentiful in the City, and it is reported the Bank of England discounted every Bill which was sent to the establiihment on Thursday. The Fo reign Narket was in a dreadful state yesterday morning. South American Stocks early. in the morning were reported at a fur ther fall of thiee per cent. upon the prices of Thursday, Co. lombian Bonds being reported at 72, Mexican Scrip at 14 dis count ; the latter at the close - was advanced to 12 discount, and the former buyers at 73. The other South American Stocks in proportion. Austrian, Russian, and Prussian Stock have at length given way—Austrian, 94 ; Russian, 90. The latter, however, was quoted without the dividend, which was 50. Greek Scrip was about 17 dis., Danish at 9. • A commercial letter, dated Gottenburgh, I3th August, says—W e never knew the Iron-trade so brisk as at. present. It was expected, that when the sluices of the Trollhatta Canal were re-opened, large supplies of iron would have been received ; this, however, is not the case, they arrive in fact very slowly. On the other hand, American vessels are making their appear ance daily to load iron, so that what reaches us is immediately shipped off. The necessary con sequence is, that hardly any iron is to be got ; and the nolders are so tenacious, that the article is procured with difficulty at 2.1 dollars Banco per ship pound, and even then the less current kinds only are obtainable. In the prices of steel and nails there is'nn variation. The stalks of the cow-parsnip are not only ate as an article of delicacy in Russia, but they con trive to get a very intoxicating spirit from it, by fomenting the stalks in water with the greater bilberries, and then distilling the liquor to what degree of strength they please, and which is said , to be more agreeable to the taste than spirits made from corn. _ A CASNIBAL.--A. brutish looking fellow, at Manchester, named Joseph Renshaw, has been ordered to find sureties to appear at the Sessions, to answer a charge of biting off a part of the finger or James Cooper, with whom he had a.quarrel the other evening.

Yesterday morning an Inquest was held at the Greyhoud Tavern, near the New Church, Kennington-common, before R. CARTER; Esq., on view of the body of Mr. William Webb, a respectable wine-merchant, who destroyed himself on Wednesday night. The Jury, previous to the examination of witnesses, proceeded• to view the body of the deceased, which presented dreadful spectacle, the head being nearly blown to atoms, in consequence of having the contents of a pistol dis charged through it. The first witness examined was Jane Knowlton, who lived in the deceased's service for the last five years, in Church-row, Lambeth. She deposed, that on Wed nesday night, about 11 o'clock, when the family were about to retire to rest, the deceased called her, and inquired whether the candle was extinguished in the kitchen. On being answered in the affirmative, he said, " That's right," and walked back into the parlour. Witness did not hear any more of him that night. The following morning, about ten minutes before six o'clock, on her coming down stairs from her bed-room, she perceived her master's chamber door open, and being surprised at the circumstance, she walked into the room, and looking towards-the bed, discovered that it had not been slept in. She then called her young master (one of the deceased's sons), and informed him of the state in which she found the bed-room ; 1 the young gentleman immediately hurried on his clothes, and they both proceeded over the house in search of the deceased, t for who. safety they had the most alarming apprehen sions. 1 ving ransacked the house, Mr. Webb was not to be fount, and they then proceeded to the stable where they both received a dreadful shock upon seeing him lying on his back in the middle stall, with the greater part of his head under the manger. The blood was flowing from his mouth, and the entire face was so disfigured that not a feature could scarcely be discerncd. There was a pistol ly ing close to his right side, which he had firmly grasped in his right hand. Witness immediately went for medical assistance, and a surgeon accompanied her back, who pronounced her master to be dead: The witness added, that on the 10th of March last two of her master's sons died, and lie had been in a low and desponding state of mind from that period until the time of his death, and more than usually •so during the last few day ; and from these circumstances it occurred to her, on finding his bed untouched, that he had destroyed himself, whilst labouring under a temporary fit of insanity. Mr. Bryant, the surgeon of Harleyford.:place, Kennington, deposed, that on Thursday morning, about six o'clock, he was sent for to attend: Mr. Webb, who he was informed had been found lying in the stable as described by the witness who pre ceded him. Upon examing the body of the deceased; witness found that life was completely extinct. There was a pistol ly ing by his side, which had the appearance of having been recently discharged. On examining the injuries which were the immediate cause of the deceased's dissolution, he (witness) discovered that his upper and under jaws were fractured in a dreadful manner, and the roof of . the mouth , completely destroyed by the contents of the pistol which appeared to have been discharged into the mouth, and which seemed to have been loaded with a bullet. Upon being interrogated by the Coroner, Mr. Bryant said that he had known the deceased, who was a man of great respectability, for several years—that within the last five or six months past, he had observed in him a deep.rooted melancholy, so much so, that the moment he (witness) was called to attend him, he was of opinion that the deceased had destroyed himself; and from the observations that witness had made respecting his appearance since the death of his sons, he had no doubt but that he had destroyed himself in a fit of temporary insanity, produced by the above causes. At the conclusion of the surgeon's evidence, the Jury, which was composed of highly respectable men, observed that there was no necessity for _proceeding in the examination of the un fortunate gentleman's son, whose feelings they wished to spare from thj recital of so melancholy a catastrophe as that. which had befallen his parent. They (the Jury) were perfectly satis fied with the evidence already adduced, as to the state of mind in which the deceased was when he committed suicide. Some gentlemen who attended on the inquest addressed the Coroner, observing, that they had known the deceased in his lifetime, and that subsequent to the death of his two children they had observed a total change in his disposition, which, from being of an agreeable and lively turn,. had changed into that of gloomy anti melancholy forebodings. Mr. CARTER observed, that the evidence fully proved the state of mind in which the deceasedvas - when he committed sell-destruction. The Jury, without hesitation, returned a verdict to the fol lowing effect That the deceased had destroyed himself whilst labouring under a fit of temporary insanity." GROSS NEGLECT ON THE PART OF A NURSE. An Inquisition was last night taken at the Griffin, Villiers street, Strand, on the body of a child, the son of Mr. 'William Shand, artificial le'-maker, of Buckingham-Street, aged seven months, who, as alleged, met his death in consequence of the gross neglect and inattention of the nurse, a person named Biggs, resident at Ealing Dean, Middlesex. From the evidence adduced, it appeared that on Monday week the child was sent to Ealing Dean, for the pu'rpose of weaning, but in a few days the grandmother of the deceased, who resided in the neighbourhood, found he had become so ex tremely ill,. that she came to her daughter early last monday morning, and informed her of it. She instantly took a coach and discovered her child was dangerously ill, and in conse quence brought it home directly. Dr. Macdonald was in wait ing when she arrived, who on examining the body found several very serious sores, in appearance asif produced by burns or scalds, received while in care of the nurse. All the witnesses concurred in stating that the infant was free from blemish when he was sent to the nurse, who on her part swore as positively that the marks were on the child when she received it from its mother. This woman, however, swore so contradictorily, that she was frequently warned by the Coroner and the Jury. The husband of the nurse was called, but he made the case worse against her, as he swore he had seen her apply fuller's earth to the infant. After an examination which lasted until eleven o'clock, the Jury unanimously agreed to the following verdict:—" The de ceased came by its death in consequence of the gross neglect and ill-treatment it had received from its nurse, Mary Biggs." During the inquest, one of the Jurors rose, and taking his hat in his hand, walked out of the room. This was observed by another Juror, who informed the Coroner of it. The gentle man, however, had gone home, and a stop was of course put to the inquiry. The beadle was instantly dispatched in pursuit of him, and after some delay, returned. Mr. Higgs, the Coroner, admonished him as to the impropriety of his conduct, and 'observed, however he might be disposed to overlook it, still he must have represented it to the Sessions, had any of his brothers Jurors, expressed themselves desirous to do so. Juror—Certainly, Sir, I erred in ignorance of the necessity of my remaing all the time. Several Jurors expressed a hope that it would be overlooked, and the Coroner accordingly acceded to their request. THE WIFE OF TWO HUSBANDS. The following singular account of the fug era a t of a celebrated beauty in her day, who was call e , Kate Cannom, in which the chief mourners "' i r e her two husbands, is taken from the fi le of i t . 19 General Evening Post for th e ye a r 1752. in a letter from the Mayor of Colchester, col' August 15, 1752 - " Perhaps you have heard that a ch e st was seized by e °l l Custom-House Officers, which was landed near this Plincthe fortnight ago.

This account wa4„ai enough to satisfy the people; he must tell his name and co- Ile tion, in order to clear himself of a suspicion of m urder: e he was continually in tears, and had a key of the vestry. wher oa censtantly sat with the corpse. He talked both Lati ° , l ,,,e French, and finding a gentleman to converse with him in JO' languages, he (to his great surprise) told him who th e he lp was, which proving to be a person he knew, he could n° t t lie uncovering his face. In short, the gentleman confesse d tos eo t was the Earl of Rosebery's eldest son, Lord DalmanY ; l ot he was born and educated in Italy, and never was in Bag io ye till two or three years ago, when he fell passionately 01 the with this lady in London, and prevailed on her to q ui had kingdom and marry him ; that having bad health, he s travelled with her all over Europe, and when al ie n , the dying she asked for pen and paper, and wrote—' I i t,.o • wife of` the Rev.
