GERMAN PAPERS, (From the Algemeine Zeitung of Sept. 2.) TRIESTE, AUG. 24. Letters from Corfu of the .11th of August, and from Zante of the 6th, which perfectly agree with each other, state, that on the 21st July : fqd of August), the second attempt to carry Missolonghi by storm was made by Itedschid .Pacha, on the land side, and by the Captain Pacha.on the sea side. The Greek reports esti. , mate the force of the Turks that made the attack by land at 30,000 men, and that on the sea side at 4,000 men, who approached in 104 boats and rafts. The garrison, however, _repulsed every attack, and Miaulis, who had hastened -to the spot with a Greek squadron, is stated -to have burnt, during the attack, a 'Turkish frigate and two brigs, , and to have taken a br i g and nine boats, full of troops. The Greeks estimate the loss of the Turks at 9,000 men. According to the same accounts, the Captain Packs, after these events, had retired to Patras, and seems since to have entirely left the coasts of Western Greece, since,. according to letters from Zante of the 6th August, it is asserted that he bad been seen far from that- island steering southwards. Before the Turks attempted the second assault the agents of an European Power endeavoured to persuade the inhabitants of Missolonghi to sur render,- assuring them that the insurrection was entirely put down in -the Morea. The Greeks, however,. gave no credit to this assurrance, but declared that they were resolved either to con quer or die. The schooner on board which these European agents were then withdrew from the harbour to the roads, -and was witness to the defeat of the Turks. ( From the Frankfort Paperr,Sept. 24 COLOGNE, AUG. 30. • The Chamber of Commerce of this city pub lished, a few days ago, the- prospectus of a Prussian-Rhenish Steam-pocket Company, which is remarkable, as it spews that the merchants of the ancient Colonies, far from remaining behind in the enterprising spirit of •the age, have it in view again to place it in the rank of a Hanseatic city, which it had two centuries .a ago, which they will be able to do as soon as the Rhenish West India Company is fully developed, ac cording to the plan laid down, and when the Dutch sea-ports, which are now barred, as it . we're, shall be at least free for the ex portation and importation of goods, of which there are now some hopes. The amount of the capital is at present limited to -10,000 rix-dollars, as this sum appears sufficient for a beginning. It is divided• into 2.00 shares of 200 dollars each. On the Ist of September a steam-boat was to begin to ply between Cologne and Coblentz, for the conveyance of travellers ; but as it is first of all to convey His Majesty the King of Prussia from Coblentz to Antwerp and Brussels, it will not begin its regular voyage between Coblentz and Cologne till some time afterwards. A lt;iter from Mayence of the `_'4th of August says, " in consequence of the rainy , weather the price of corn has fallen a little, -both here and in Holland. But it is to be expected that the corn of this year's crop, which is remarkably good, will soon rise again, especially as the crop of all substitutes for bread has, proved very indifferent. The corn of last year's harvest weighs 160 pounds the great measure (malter), while this year's corn weighs above 190 pounds, and gives one third less of bran. All the corn of this year seems also to be very fit for keeping, and.consequent)y adapted to speculation." Since this succour had been given, and after the loss of the besiegers, the Seraskier has raised the siege. This news, however, needs confirmation.

( From the Etoile dated Wednesday, Sept. 7.) PA R IS, SEPT. 6.—lt is-said that M. Latitte be the contractor for the St. Domingo loan. We have received the following letter from Corfu, dated August 10: — Three days ago the Seraskier attempted a fourth attack on Missolonghi, with 6,000 men divided into 3 corps—one of Montenegrins, one of 2,000 Sectariots, and the 3d of 2,000 Asiatic. —These troops succeeded in making themselves masters of several parts of the fortifications, and kept their ground for some time, but they were at length driven out with considerable . loss, which is stated at 3,000 men, killed, wounded, and prisoners. It is added, that the loss of the Turks would have been still more considevable Jut for the stratagem of one of their leaders, named 'fair Abasi, who had an understanding with the Greeks, and who took advantage of it to retard the march of the latter, by informing - them of a danger which did not exist. . The Greek fleet, consisting of 40 armed ves sels, and 12 fire-ships, has re-appeared near ?atm. The Capital) Pacha has retreated under the protection of the forts, after having exchang .ed with it a few shuts. The following is an extract of the news that have been in circulation for a few days :—" On the sth the captain of a vessel from Zante says, that soon after his departure ell the Ist of the month, he saw at a distance the Greek and the Turkish fleets engaged, and that soon after he discovered a Greek brig, vvhich he presumed to -be a fire-ship, fighting in the. midst of 6 Turkish frigates. The captain, continuing his voyage, lost sight of the two fleets. but heard for a long =time a heavy cannonade." We expect with impatience the details of the •meeting of Mianlis with the Capitan Pacha.-- Sachtoury, with 28 ships and 10 lire-ships under -'Canari,.is gone to attack, in the port of Alexan .dria, the Egyptian fleet preparing there for ano ther expedition. The English frigate which ar -rived yesterday, the 9th of August, from Napoli and Missolonghi, reports that the M oreots shewed `inexcusable weakness and cowardice, but that -the Romeliots displayed admirable courage, per severance, and patriotism. The-arrival of the Greek fleet has been a great advantage to Misso longhi, where water had been scarce for some days, though the English frigate had put in there and landed almost all the water it had on board. 'The Greek feet had supplied the place with .eatery thing that it wanted : and , it is affirmed that TRIM, FOR MURDER, IN FRANCE. In our Paper of NVednesilay we gave the first part of the trial of Louis Fremont, at the Court of Assizes at Tours, for the murder of . M. Cou rier. It was concluded in the audiences of the d and 3a Septornber. After some important witnesses had been examined, Pierre Dubois was called. This man was a coachman of M. Courier's, and it was on him that the first suspicions fell: He entered into an account of the manner in whichhe had spent his time on the loth April, and asserted that he had not parted company from his brother Symphorien. Suspicion had at first fallen on these two brothers, on account of the.animosity which existed between M. Courier and Pierre Dubois, who hail been dismissed from the house of the former, as he suspected him of too great inti macy with Mad. Courier, which was, indeed, the report in the neighbourhood. Both brothers, however, had been set at liberty, on account of the alibi Proved by theirfamily. A girl named Jeanne next proved that she heard, on the same day Pierre Du bois was dismissed, high words ensue - between him and his mas ter, who she distinctly heard say, " What ! wretch, .dost thou threaten me in my own house ! depart, you deserve that I should give you into the custody of the gendarmes." Pierre Dubois did.net, however, leave that part of the country, and hisbwther, Symphorien, remained in M. Courier's service. One night at eleven o'clock, Pierre went from the public.:house in the vil lage to M. Courier's house, in company with the accused Louis Fremont. The latter having communicated to his master that Pierre was near the house, M. Courier took his gun and went down into the court ; he did not find. Pierre, but met his wife half naked near the stable. At this part of the deposition MadaMe Courier begged leave to explain this night scene. She was, she said, in the habit of waiting-for the return of her servants, and when she heard them entering at the. gates she used to go and meet them half dress ed.' One this night she saw Pierre, and spoke with him for about ten minuts at the door of the stable. M. Courier then. came down, and passed near her in the corridor; M. Courier might have recognised her in the moonlight,, but he did not speak to her. • , A number of witnesses were then heard to support the alibi of the two brothers, Dubois. One of them, however, said that Pierre Dubois once said, on seeing M. Courier approach, " If some one should break his head we should be ~the better for it." This alleged exclamation was denied by Pierre. Martin Brisson was then. called. He said that - he•met a man in the forest six days previous to the murder,.and bad with him a conversation respecting M. Courier. The roan he met said,"that 'M. Courier was a rascal, and deserved to have his woods burnt and his brains knocked out. ;The man who said this was of a brown complexion, and seemed about forty years of age. The surgeon who examined the body' was then called. He gave the first intelligence of the murder to Madame Courier, and spoke to her of the suspicions raised against Fremont. Madame Courier was then recalled, and stated that her sus picions rested entirely on Fremont. 'rile prisoner was then questioned en the causes' of dislike which might influence Masene Courier to charge him with the crime. He replied that his master had set him to watch the conduct of Madame Courier, as she had frequent meetings with-Pierro Dubois, and that :when the latter wav aisuni.....l from the house, he feared Madame. Courier would elope after him, which hail made his master charge him to be constantly on ie look out, and had, perhaps, drawn down .upon him :the hatred of Madame. - The President then questioned Madame Courier as to whe ther-she could supply any clue to discover who it was that spoke with Martin Brisson in the forest. Madame Courier replied, that suspicions had been raised against persona of such eminent character, that she could not think they would have chosen Brissen for the execution. .:The Procureur du Roi explained to the .Jury, that in her interrogations Madame Courier declared, that she had the same opinion that.was entertained on the Exchange at Paris, and thought that the assassination had been committed at the insti gation of the Jesuits. Two other witnesses were called, Marie and Rose Serot, who proved that they saw . a man dressed in blue,,armed with a gun, enter the wood a little before. the crime was committed. Both of the girls kneW Fremont, and asserted it was not him. It was a larger man than Fremont. - This was the whole of the evidence. ,11. de Chancel, Procureur du Roi, then addressed the Jury at some length,. and assured them let their decision .be what it might, the eyes of justice would be open, and the assassination of M. Courier be punished. 111. Faucheux, Counsel for the prisoner, .then rose. He en tered into an examination of ..the charge, and of the proofs brought to support it against his client. lie pointed out the vague presumptive nature of the evidence and the motives which. might influence the widow of the deceased in maintaining that it was the prisoner , Who committed the crime. He concluded with a long and eloquent eulogium on the literary talents of M. ' Courier. The Procureur du Roi again rose soon after, less to reply than I to reproach the Counsel for the prisoner for the conclusion of his discourse. It was not, he said, proper that M. Courier's works should be praised before a Royal Court, as those works were political pamphlets which had been almost all of them con demned by the tribunals. M. Faucheux had quitted the Court, and was not present to reply. The President then summedetp, and the Jury, after half an hour's deliberationereturned a unanimous verdict of acquittal. Fremont heard it with the same insensibility he had manifest: ed throughout the trial. He was immediately set at.liberty. Another of thoserfatal accidents arising from incautiously leaving guns loaded, occurred at Mattock's Farm, near Colchester, on Tuesday. The son of Mr. Houldsworth, who manages the farm, incautiously left his gun loaded in du, kitchen, after returning from shooting-.; and his young brother, a boy of eight years of •age, took it up and pointing it to the maid servant, said he would shoot her. The gun went off upon the half cock, and lodged the contents in the s ide of a youth of the name of Wilkinson, a husbandman who was sitting at dinner. It'did not kill him on the spot, la not the slightest hopes are entertained of his recovery. WomEN are often accused of moss/pp/7:g, but we are not aware that it has ever been the sub ject of legal penalties, except at St. Helena, where, among the ordinances.promulgated in 1709, we find the following :—" Whereas, several idle, gossippiog women, make it their business to go from house to house, about this island, invent ing and spreading false and scandalous reports of the good people thereof, and thereby sow dis cord and debate among neighbours, and often be tween men and their wives, to the great grief and trouble of all good and quiet people, and to the utter extinguishing of all friendship, amity, and good neighbourhood ; for the punishment and suppression whereof, and to the intent that all strife may be ended, charity revived, and friend ship continued, we .do order, that if any women. from henceforth shall be couvicted.of tale bear ing, mischief making, scolding, or any other no torious vices, they shall be punished by ducking or whiiipiog, or such other punishment as their crimes or transgressions shall deserve, Or the Go. vernor and Council shall think fit."—(Stirling Journal.)

A serious affair 'occurred 'on Thursday last at Lowesgreen, of which the following has been communicated to us by the correspondents of the Clonmel Advertiser : LOWESGREEW Friday Morning.--Mr. Cuthbert. agent to Mr. Newenham, distramed the tenantry in this neighbour hood, and Placed 'keepers on them a week back—these being of our country, and it being supposed they were suffering the seized corn to be removed-25 men, tenants of Mr. Newenham, were brought from the county Limerick; and while Mr. Cuth bert was placing them in their respective situations as keepers, they were attacked by above 200 men, armed with every sort of destructive weapon, scythes ' &c. and beaten in a dreadful manner ; those only escaped unhurt who were able to run. Three of the keepers, with their skulls badly fractured, were sent into the Cashel infirmary. One unfortunate man, of the name of Tom Hayes, had his skull divided for nearly six inches with a sidle, so that a portion of the brain obtruded. Mr. Cuthbert himself had a wonderful escape ; he got into the police barrack here (,Lower green) and by this means escaped the fury of the mob. CastiEL, Friday Night.—There was a sad affair at Lowes green on Thursday, where keepers had been put .on some grounds in that vicinity : three men were sent into the inr iy nar here, severely wounded; one, of the name of Hayes, had h s l brains nearly dashed out, but he still lingers alive. Sevnerai others, more or less injured, came into town this day l ;, a d is reported that one man had his arm'cut off hearing of this 'unhappy affair, the Reverend Mr. ert, with the Cashel police, - immediately set off, and scoured the with a scyt_r e . rb On t country, till a late hour on Thursday ou with fur offenders, but without success.

The demise of a patient in this Hospital having rendered.l necessary the holding of an inquest, the present was, we be lieve, by direction of the Coroner (Thomas SIIE LT ON, Esq.), again served upon the beat of St.Andrew'‘Holhorn, a parish which has before resisted thONecepts on theground,that they are. specially exempted 'from !crying on all juries, and which . question they are now contesting in the Exchequer, in a case in Which their non-attendance as jurors has been visited with a fine by the. Chief .Justice of the King's Bench. Notwith , standing this:claiM of exemption, upwards of 18 out pf the 24 jurors summoned were in attendance. Their names having been called over, and the Coroner-rising for the purpose of ad ministering the oath to their foreman, one of their body (Mr. Browne) rose, and stated that he was, in common with the other gentlemen present, an inhabitant. of St. Andrew's, and he believed it was an unusual thing to summon a jury froni that parish; he was, however, unwilling to impede public businesS, and would theretine serve ; but as he was unwilling that his so doing should prejudice the important question they were con tending for in the Exchequer, he begged to enter his protest against•the right of summoning them in the present instance. Coroner—l cannot receive your protest. I have no record upon which I can enter it. Mr. Harrison, another juror—Then allow me to say, I do not think 1 ought to serve. Coroner—You are certainly at liberty to say s'o. Mr. Harrison—We ought to have obtained legal advice be. fore coming here, and i still think we ought to decline serving till we have obtained such advice. Coroner—Then I -can tell you that if you refuse serving, I shall certainly indict you. • Mr. Harrison—That, Sir, will be your business : it is ours to maintain our rights. Coroner—You should not have come, then.. Mr. Harrison—l sliould not, but that I expected our church wardens would have been here; they could not, however, I have.since learned, attend. Coroner—f can only stiff;, gentleman, that as respects your claim of exemption, I do not think you have the remotest chance of establishing it. • Mr. Browne—We will serve now weare here, but we will tot acknowledge that we have any right ito to do. Coroner—l am willing to bear testimony, if called on, to your having protested against serving. Mr. Harrison thought their consenting to serve would be establishing a precedent, which might afterwards be construed to amount to an abandonment of their privilege.. Coroner.—l really do not know what may be its effect on the question of privilege, ori would at once tell you. - - Several jurors here expressed an opinion, that acthey 'Aire there, they had better serve. The usual oaths were consequently administered, after which the, evidence touching the death of James Neale was heard, and from which it appeared, that he was employed as labourer at the building now erecting fur the congregation of.the Rev. Alexander Fletcher, in Mooriielas, and had fallen from the scaffOld, and injured himself in so se vere a manner as to cause his death shortly after his admission into the hospital.-:—Verdict—" Accidental death." Deodand, Is. SUICIDE.—Last night an Inquest was held at the Queen's Head, St. Martin's-le-Grand, on the body of Mr. John Philips, aged 33, the proprietor of an eating-house, in St. Martin's-le- Grand, who l,Reg himself. The deceased formerly had an ex tensive business at Charing-cross, which he disposed of, con ceiving he could.carry on a more lucrative trade in St. Martin's le-Grand. He took bills in payment for the Charing-cross business, but .the first one, when it became due, a few days since, was dishonoured. He conclUded that he,should have to take them all up, and although he was generally of a cheerful and happy disposition, he fell into a profound melancholy.— The Jury returned a verdict of " Insanity." Last night an Inquest was held at the Norfolk Arms public house, in Leigh-street, Burton Crescent, on the body of James Bighorns, who was killed on Tuesday last by a sugar hogs head falling upon him. Dennis Ivers stated; that he was waggoner.to Messrs. 'Hicks and Co. merchants, Borough. On Tuesday, about three o'clock in the afternoon, he was unload ing four hogsheads of sugar and one tierce of coffee, at the shop of 3lr. Pratt, grocer, in Judd-street. The deceased who was ap prentice to Mr. Pratt; was assisting, when, as he was endeavour ing to lower the rail-board of the waggon to let down the first hogs head, deceased, supporting the hogshead with one hand, suddenly slipped down, and the.cask fell over him. He did not know what caused the young man to slip down .; he immediately helped Mr. Pratt and John Crosson to take the body from under the hogs head. It appeared to be lifeless, and blood was gushing from the eyes and ears. Deceased never spoke .or moved after the accident, and was quite dead .in a few minutes. Crofton Cooper, Esq., a surgeon, residing . in Judd-street, deposed that he saw the body about a quarter of An hour after the accident. He did not examine it professionally ; but had no hesitation in giving it as his opiniou:that it was the undue pressure on the head and chest which occasioned death. The waggoner, upon being further questioned, said, that he had been seven years in the business, and never knew of an accident•happening before. He thought two men were quite enough for, the work of un loading a waggon with sugar hogsheads, It was not customary to send. more than one man, .the carman; upon such occasions. The body did not exhibit a single mark of external violence beyond a slight scratch on the cheek. The following verdict was returned :—" The jury return their verdict - of accidental death, and consider it highly improper on the part of the merchants • in not sending a sufficient number of persons to unload the waggon, it having been stated in evidence to the jury that it is not customary to .send more than one man, viz. the carman, with each waggon, except in cases nearer home." Yesterday evening a Coroner's Inquest was held, by Tno- I HAS STIRLING, Esq., at the Cherry Tree, Bowling-green lane, Clerkenwell, on the body of Frederick Smith, a tine boy, fire years of age, whose death was occasion by his falling or rolling off the foot pavement into the carriage -road, as three loaded drays belonging to Messrs. Combe and Delafield, were passing. Under the last of these drays the deceased fell, and the wheels going over his body, crushed him in so dreadful a manner, .that he died while he was being carried to St. Bar tholomew's Hospital. By the evidence, it appeared that the drayman was driving very steadily, and walking by the side of his horses, did not see the deceased, and was not conscious that any accident had occurred until the 'road was atartred at the obstruction of the wheel. The road is extremely narrow, and the footpath consequently very dangerous ; and, by the evidence of a hackney-coachman, named Thomas Davis, who was driving his coach, and following the drays, it was clear no fault was attributable to the drayman. 'l'he Jury having viewed the body, which was literally crushed to atoms, re turned a .verdict-of accidental death. ANOTHER ROBBER. SHOT.—The grounds of Mr. JOHN HARRIS, farmer and market-gardener, at \Vargrove, Berks., having been continually of late plundered of the most choice produce, and as the depredations were generally committed on mar ket-daps when Mr. Harris was obliged to be absent from home, he determined on Monday last to return hack some hours before his accustomed time. Accordingly, having disposed of his pro duce, he left his team to jog on slowly, under the care of - his man, and mounting a coach, soon found himself at home, when, (Irking with him a horse pistol, -loaded with small shot, ha proceeded di rect for his or chard, wh e r e he found a per son in oflle from lrpinig himself tolerably bountifully aff one of the pear-trees. The titirlae thec uaotti fruit seeing, him, attempted to run off, and having refused to stop when Called on so to do, Mr. Harris discharged his piece at him, and, from 'his subsequent limping, it became evident that he was wounded. Mr. Harris did not, however, pursue him, but contented himself with t)xe surnary punishment he had thu- inflicted. A PPREIIENSION FOR.
