TiiE LONDON JOURNALS. DAILY EXTRACTS FROM THE MORNING PAPERS, November 90. [MORNING POST.] Letters to a late date were received. in town yesterday from Cadiz-, Gibraltar, and .Smyrna. The former contain most afflicting intelligence of the progress of the yellow fever. The hopes en tertained of its being checked, if not altogether removed, by the autumnal change. in the tempo- rature, had been unfortunately disappointed. Not only did the malady rage with unabated violence in the infected places, but notwithstand ing the. precautions taken - in every town, district after district became the seat of desolation and death. _Even Cadiz, which had so long main. tained the health of its inhabitants unimpaired, through the vigilant care of the Public Authori ties, now at last finds the_ pestilence within its bosom; How it penetrated within its wallshad not -been ascertained, but, as only a feW individuals ' had 'been attacked, it was hoped that excessive attention, - and the exertions of the Medical: Boards, would be sufficient to arrest its progress: . The invisible.scourge, how ever, seemed to " walk on tlie - wings of the wind," 'known indeed by the desolation which darkened the..earth in. its track, but heralded only by the serenity of smiling Heavens. At St. Mary's, the population of which is comparatively inconsider able, the disorder seemed to have gained fresh strength. On the three last days, ending on the 20th ult. 35 persons had-died, and 180 were still 'attacked. During the same period at Xerez,,six ,persons had died, and 26 remained ill of the fever. At Lebrija, from the. 13th to the 20th ult. 19 persons died; and the cases remaining were .46. At St. Lucar de Barrameda, from the 14th to the 20th ult: there were. five deaths and several new cases'. At Barcelona, But cefonetta, and Mequinenza;.the fever still--raged violently, though at the two former places some relief was still expected from an alteration in theweatber: The G overnor of the latter place died on'the 9th ult.. The contagion had declared itself at Aguilar, in the province of Murcia, and at Triaba, on the bor ders of Seville.. In consequence of the situation of .Port St. Mary's, no ship, persons, or goods, from any point in the Bay of Cadiz were hence forth to be admitted into 'Portugal, and those coming from the other ports of Spain, between Gibraltar and Ayamonte, were not to be admit ted-any where else than at Lisbon, subject even to 30 days quarantine.. The letters from Smyrna contain nothing new., • [MORNING 'CHRONICLE.] We received yesterday_Park . .Papers. of Friday last.

[BRITISII PRESS.] • The accounts from the East :continue, to- speak of the improbability.of a war bet ween Russia and Turkey, but we find. that the Porte does not relax in its exertions to give to its military force an im posing. appearance. The. cause of Grecian liberty is spoken of in terms which would almost make us despair of ever Seeing the cradle of science cease to be the den of ignorance and barbarisni. That Russia should be i..different to the results of the present struggle in the southern provinces ought not to surprise us, who find even. in the politer countries of Europe a willingness to sacrifice Greece to certain, vain and imaginary notions of political expediency ; neither ought we to regret it, for if Greece deserve to be free, she must look to the liearts and arms of-her own sons for regaining her rank in the scale of, nations.. It is distressing to learn that Athens, which so lately_ was. freed from the debasing presence of the Tur)(s, should be . again restored. to their authority, having been de serted by the Greeks. How yainly .do tie mo dern Greeks, in ther pompous, addresses to fo reign nations, recal the memory of the - mighty names who grace the story of.their country ~ [NEW TIMES.] Letters from -Odessa to the pa ult. were received in town yesterday morning. They are entirely des titute of all political information, but they supply some intelligence of high importance.to the com mercial world. The following is. an. extract of. a letter• received by an eminent mercantile. house : - 44 We have. great satisfaction in being-able to acquaintion, that this . placeovhich was So lately deprived of its privileges, has been again restored to all its rights as a free port. It is but a short time since that the . memorial, which . was for. warded by the merchants of this place . to : the Emperor, met with unqualified rejection, on the ground that extensive-smuggling had been car. ried on, to the-great.lniury of the revenue, and the total : . destructio.n of all fair. trade, After this decision, little hopes were entertained that any subsequent effort, would. prove successfpl ; but we aro happy to say, that through ,the combined e . ttl and • assiduity of the principal merchants, our earnest wishes have been .ac ceded to. Tjie arguments. ip support of our memorial were so strongly urged, and so power fully supported, that the Emperor, on...reviewing the case, felt . convinced of the injustice and. un truth,of .the ; statements which ,had been laid before him, and -immediately issued ,a .-fresh Ikkase, restoring .Odessa to its former privilege. Woiness has•been.very .brisk for some time- past, and we need hardly assure you that this snews has given a fresh impeus to its it must' prove highly beneficial to' the merchants here, and will, no doubt, have a corresponds 4 effect on your side of the water."--The accounts from. Constan tinoPle are to the 10th. Up to that period the city remained in a state of comparative• tranquil lity, with the exception only of some occasional ebullitions on the part of the populace, which were created merely by a desire to gratify some private pique or revenge ; having.no reference whatever to the question. at issue between the Greeks and the Turks. • [MORNING HERALD.] • We inserted, a few days since, in•the•Asence of more important matter, an octract of rtrecent French publication, professing to - contaiie-some anecdotes of the behaviour . of *Buonaparte duiing his last illness. I t never ()Centred to us - at 7 the moment that we were starting game which should be too keenly hunted by our contemporaries. The author of the - anecdotes, whoever he be, touched the Ex-Emperor in the gentlest manner. Nothing indeed could be more sentimental than the traits of behaviour and expression ascribed to the great captive at the approach of his last moments. The chief object of the writer seemed to be.to scatter flowers on his tomb. It was not without some surprise that we observed in a Morn ing. where it might least be expected; the panegyristoftheEx-Emperor pronounced a falsi Ger and fabricator. We-never said, or suppoSed they were authentic. Indeed we . concurred, to- a con siderable extent, in the opinion of ourcontem-- porary„ and for. very good reasons. • A. great. portion of the book consisted of variobs letters and other communications, which had been_ pub lished or Praised in. that very Paper, including the . therapeutics of "Mr. Barry O'Meara, A writer in another Morning -Paper, whb professes to have been an 4 i- eye-witness," and :who cer, tainly a very ill-natured and defamatory kind of person, not content With.denying the correctness of the anecdotes, declares that the Ex-Emperor not only never" played the piano," or " filled his pocket with sweetmeats for • a favourite child," brit employed his • leisure •" in shooting wild cats." • The first assailant now turns round; and generously defends what at first . it stigma tized as a fabrication ; and, lastly,. that' 'erudite . person, Mr. Barry O'Meara, has come forward to .vouch,-if not for the correctness of the anecdotes, at least for" their characteristic probability.; and . to tell the world the important fact, that Buona. parte had " an ear for trinsic," : • We 'dare say the controversy is not yet closed.. •• , • • .

THE SUINNERS' COHPAVY. llr..t'L•OnE( was heard at considerable length, this day, in support of the appeal; and was followed on the same side by Mr. 03rEGO. - The ATTORNEY-GEXERAT., for the respondents (the rela ters), commenced his argument for aflizming the judgment of the Vice-Chancellor.. It will be recollected that the decree of his Honour• gave to the relaters in this case the object which. they sought by. their information; namely, the rents and pro fits of the' charity -estate-. amounting to the sum of 4,0001. for the support of the .Tunbiidge .school. The • Learned Ointleman referred' to the original.ellirter and several.of the early documents to. :which the attention of COurt had- been for the purpose of spewing that -the Company :of Skin ners had been created by the charter in:ipiestion for no other purpose than td-act as the warden; and•masters of this school . ; that their power was limited fo_that ettablislniAnt'; arnl that -whatever property-was conveyed to them by the testator, or in virtue of the testator's appointment, was given lbr the.benefit Of Tunbridge School. The Learned Gentleman was proceeding in his argument, when The LORD CHANCELLOR (atone o'clock) said he was com pelled to rise and go to another-place'. .10E,CHANCELLOR'S COURT, N0v..19. COOKE V.

' • a . Mr. HART said, that.if the object were :to obtain a triumph for one of the parties, the Court undoubtedly would act rightly in refusing it; but the fact was that there had been no Sale. There had been no scheme of sale: no -competition. of opulent trades had beeii invited: The partnership concern had been given to Wm. Cooke by the executor's upon their own valua tion, and the plaintiff complained that the transference in such a way was not a fair sale, and that the value ptit upon the pro perty was not the highest that might have been obtained. The'VrCEXHANcELLort said, that if the °value was not the highest that might have been obtained, and if the sale . was not the most beneficial to all 'parties, most undoubtedly the sale j could not be considered good by force of -contract. The ques tion was; then, what was the value of the Property in 1317 ; and then, if a sale ought to have'bebn made in a different forni in 181•77the question would be, was it for the interestaf all parties that there . should be a sale now ? -WOW& it not be the fittest ' course to refer the case to the Master, for the purpose of making those inquiries ?

The plaintiff, who is a Padd in gton stage-coachinan, said, !that Oh the lth of leb. last, 'lie tet, - + up Mr. ittra (not e)iyctly 'in a state to discover the longitude) at ihe,Bank, in order to his being conveyed per coach to Paddington.

Bent replied, that having tin excellent 'con dition to discover the longitude, or adyr.thing'else) entered the plaintiff's vehicle at thiliank, he expected, as a matter of itn plied contract, to be conveyed to Ids own houseat Paddington. Plaintiff, however, refused to carry him (defendant) to his own door ' • and he (defendant) therefore refused payment of plain tiff's fare upon which plaintiff. collared and refused to let him (defendant) tTo ; which collaring and obstruction compelled him (defendant) in self-defence to knock him (plaintiff) down. • Evidence at some length was• given on both sides; and a question was started as to whether the plaintiff was or was not boiffid to carry the defendant to the door of his own house. Mr. Justice II or.novn left the simplerquestion to -the Jury— Had the plaintiff, orhadjie not, upon the defendant's refusal to pay his fare, collared and .detained him ? With the plain tiff's refusal to carry the defendant to his own door the Jury had nothing to do, nor with the refusatof the defendant to pay the fare demanded. Granting a fare to be due, a coachman was not warranted in assaulting his passenger for•payment ; and, if .the plaintiff in the present case had taken final:curse, the de fendant must have a verdict. If, on the other hand, the first assault had proceeded from the defendant, the plaintiff would be entitled to reasonable damages : the evidence was before the Junr, and upon the evidence they were to decide.
