The French papers contain a vaiiety of reports with respect to Greeks, Turks, and Russians, of which, as one ,part . generally contradicts another, we are under no necessity of adding-our refuta- Nothing definite is, we believe, known even. as to the state of the war in Turkey, or the resources of the contenang parlies ;. and much more are the 'intentions of Russia Veiled in ob scurity.--rrhe Court of Naples, it is still'lnore confidently'repeated, means to' recall the Che-. W valier -Medici. e doubt this, simply because there is.every reason to suppose that it would be a very useful measure. • [Nte.W TIMES.] the rumours of war betiven Russia and tlu Porte are revived in many of the German Papers ; but much more reliance is to be. placed on .the letters from St. Petersburg, which continue to maintain 'a confidence . in the preservation of peace. It is probable that the Emperor Alex anctir: ends himseifin a situation of some . deli cagy with -regard to the general disposition of* :his people. Excessive bigotry prevails tht:Vigh . the, greater pak of the Russian Em pire : and the attachment of the great mass . of the community to the Greek Church, animates them ..to a crusade against. the oppressors of the Greot. Christians. The Emperor himself is too enlightened a man to think that religion is to be propagated by the sword ; and he must be well aware of the difficulties which would necessarily arise from any attempt to disturb the balance of power. At the same time it cannot be expected of him violently to resist the general HMI of his subjects,. coinciding us it does with the favourite . plani of aggrandisement which have been che risho., for a .century by the Russian Cabinet. `—A temporising policy is therefore almost a matter of ' necessity to. this' Sovereign : and we apprehend that he is not averse to pro longing' the negociations with Austria and Eng land 'for the maintenance of peace, while he Still: maintains an appearance of hostile pre paration, at. once to intimidate the Turks, and to =prevent dis Satisfaction among his own sob- • _ jests. A report prevailed at Vienna on the 26th tilt: that Turkey herself had put an end to the state of suspen'se by a sudden declaration of war ; but little credit was given to the rumour, which probably tascultogether unfounded. • [nonNlNa rosT.] We - find' by the French Papers to the 11th inst., which arrived yesterday, that a report had reached Vienna of 'czar having been declared by the Grand Seignior against Russia. < The only observation made by 'the Austrian (aiette on the subject is—" that such 'a declaratiOn would, on : the side of the J.lnssiatt Ministry, be the most sure means of ending the neeociations ; as, in that case, Russia must defend-hereelf." Whe ther this be meant as an insinuation that the re-1 ported ,Declaration had been procured through . the.intriggespf Rnssia, who,uriwilling tnetieoun ter the .. reproaches . and direct.opposition of the European Powers, and .yet bent on war, had used, this expedient to attain her ends without incur- . .. 1 ring . any additional responsibility—or whether it be,eztpressiye of the intention. of the AuStrian Court to admit the validity of such a ujea, mid to ab stain from all interference in a war ,cominenced. by the. Turks themselves, time alone can reveal. We should incline to believe the latter ;',but iu matters of this kind the d'eterminationsof Princes depend so much on the measure of success, that it would be idle to form any serious anticipations. before knowing the result of the first military operations. ..The intelligence which these Papers communicate from Spain bears a less . gloomy character than usual. The epidemy seemed af. last to have exhausted its strength, and the cases of recovery, increased. , . • [MORNING HERALD.] There, has been of late a great deal said, and a great ,deal written, about the paying off, on the part of the Government, of the four per cents. and the five per cents. The four per rents., amount to about.7o millions, and the five per cents. to about 130 ; together 200 millions. —There is an old adage, that " to say a thing, and to .do a thing, are two different thiugs."—. In the fir - at pkce, with regard to the 4 per cents. they are not yet at par ; therefore, the Policy of paying 1001. for that which is not worth more than,,96l. in the market, cannot enter into the con- temptation of the Chancellor of the Exchequer. The 5 per cents, are little more than 10 per cent. above . par ; therefore l ' at present they are the only stock that the Ministers can have any idea of paying off. It •is not more . than two years :.since the squie idea of paying, off the five per' ceNst was broached" ; in the •newspapers, when they at much about the present price: Ina mediatel; .t ‘ h . e public , took the alarm—and what was. the con:.‘tonce ?

But 'the organ of the Gang does not confine his displea sure to us. The sorry reception which the Hono rary Secretary's application, founded as it was on fhe opinion of so learned a Counsel as Mr. Adol phus, met with from the Magistrates, has kindled all his wrath. The Magistrates are charged with having made irrelevant and impertinent remarks ! We beg pardon, the Reporters are supposed to be the authors of irrelevant and iMpertinent remarks themselves, and to have attributed them to-the Magistrates ! But this disguise is easily seen through. [BRITISH FRESS:I The Court of King's Bench was moved yester t6y upon behalf of Mary Ann Carlile, of Fleet street, fora new trial in her case, upon the ground that her defence was improperly interrupted by Mr. Justice Best at the trial.. This unfortunate young woman, it will be remembered, was convicted at :he sittings after last Term in Guildhall, for pub lishing a blasphemous libel, entitled ' An Ap- Tendix to the Theological Works• of Thomas Paine." On that occasion, she tendered to the Court a paper-writing, by way of defence, which was read in part ,by the Officer of the Court, but as it proceeded it was found to contain . passages so offensive to the religion, laws, and insti tutions of the country, that it was impossible for any Judge' to suffer them to pass with out reprehension. Mr. Justice Best accord ingly censured them. stronly, and when at length the Officer in reading the paper arrived at a passage which called. " the common law" " common abuse," he advised her to retire from .the Court with some friend, and to expunge such offensive expressions as those .which he had al ready condemned, and which, as the . Jury had already told her, must do her more of injury than of service. This advice was good, but it was counteracted by that of some • mischievouS offi cious friend, who persuaded 144 to persist in urging to the Court the defence as it was _writ ten. The defendant accordingly, •on her return, to the Court, handed a paper to the Judge, in which she apprised him that her defence was such as she had already offered, and if an English woman were not suffered to urge in her defence .such topics as she- conceived :to be proper, she must take the consequences of his judgment. The remainder of the defence, therefore, was not read, the Judge addressed the Jury, and the De fendant .Was found guilty.' On Friday last, a Humber keel vessel left Three Cranes Wharf, with a valuable- cargo; coming near to London Bridge, sbe . Was drove by the force of the current against the- starlings-of the centre arch, which- knocked a hole in her bottom. She struck ,against the hill below the bridge, and soon after sunk nearly opposite to . Battle bridge Stairs. A great *part of her cargo was entirely lost, amounting to several hundred pounds. Fortunately no- lives were lost. This is the third accident at this bridge within the last .six weeks. On the- night.of the 25th of October, a thun der-bolt fell on the Theatre of INIAIicELLus, and penetrated to its subterraneous recesses. This grand moninnent is the second Theatre which was built in Rome: It-was raised by AUGUSTUS in memory of MAirctr,t,:us. So-severe -was the fall of snow on Saturday and Sunday se'nnight,-tolhe'east and north of Lang holm, that many hundreds - :of sheep have 'been buried under it, a great number of which have not as yet been e?ctricatedi it is feared • many have been Smothered. " . On Sunday morning the mountains surround ing this city were as completely covered with snow as in the middle of winter, and the air was uncommonly cold. Some of the coach-guards declared that they had seldom experienced* a keener morning.—(Carlisle Patriot.) Faliero has been again unfortunate at Paris. After having been 'condemned at la Rue de Richelieu, it was brought forward on Wednesday • night, at la Porte Saint Martin, in the shape of a Melo-drame, in three acts, and was finally driven off the stage. SINGULAR CIRCUMSTANCE.--Yesterday morn ing, at day-break, as an inhabitant of Edgware was crossing a field-near to- that village, he was surprised by obsdving, at a short distance from him, the figure of a -man reclining against the side of -a ditch, at such an unseasonable hour, and during such - inclement weather. He . went up to the spot, and called loudly .to the man ; but to his still greater surprise he discovered that it was a corpse. From the condition of the un fortunate-man, it-was supposed that he had been plundered by some thieves during the night, and inhumanly murdered ; but on the body being conveyed to the George public-house, no wo unds were found to justify - such suspicion. The de ceased was seen in the neighbourhood -the day before, and it is belieied that he came from Lon- : don ; but no papers were found -on his • person likely to lead to a discovery of his friends. It is believed that the deceased had taken laudanum, or some other poisonous ingredients, and laid himsellon the hank of the ditch, and expired., • A.

THE LAIDED INTERESTS._ touroa—The following EXPOSE, (SUCh is the word) of the state of - the French Nation,. contained in their Monarch's late Speech, at the Openitig of the Session of the Chambers, on Mon day the sth inst., may, perhaps, by the contrast, prove not altogether uninteresting : lie says, " if we take a view of our domestic state, what mo tives have we not to bless Providence. The sensible progress of Industry, Agriculture, and the Arts, give s am p le proof of the advances of Commerce also : and very soon new channels will extend the general good to all parts of the Kingdom. Our auspicious situation, and the return of internal and external tranquillity, have already admitted of a diminution in one of the most burthcnsome of the taxes—that which attacks repro duction in its very source, by over-charging landed property, (viz. the land-tax).—Next year those to assessed will wholly enjoy this reduction." Let us examine, (and truly examination is re quisite) a little into the state of more than one neighbouring community ; would not the una voidable reply to inquiry, if dictated by truth, for one at least be couched in terms somewhat analogous to the following in a document of the like kind : " The manufacturing interests of the country have again re vived, and full employment is every where to be found for those engaged in such pursuits, which were never in so universally and extensively flourishing a state as at present; whilst the pro gress of trade, which alone can give an impulse to labour of that kind, is thereby clearly indicated. The agricultural part of the community is, - however, notwithstanding the prosperity of manufactures and trade, still in so . deplorable a condition of lan gour and wretchedness as shortly- to threaten its temporry ex tinction, at least." What a picture is this ? What a contrast in the condition of two such neighbours, seven years after the conclusion of a treaty of peace on both sides which had put an end to a struggle 'for power of 25 years' duration, the whole of which period had been passed in a state of the most rancorous open warfare. The first•sketch is one,of solid and increasing prosperity, in actual being, not imagined, but possessed; whether pro perly enjoyed or otherwise, is not the question. The second is one of heart-sickening gloom, creating feelings approaching those of despondency ; front the too certain intelligence it conveys, that what it represents is rapidly approximating the verge of an unfathomable abyss. But however strange, it is yet true, that the victor from the contest mentioned is the suffering victim ; and the van quished the triumphant possessor of-the good in being, and also the apparent heir to that which may soon - be in reversion—to wit, internal tran -quillity, No one can read the speech .of the good old :man through, without being struck by the forci ble but unpretending sentiments of devotional piety, and triumphant, though thankful, exulta tion, which at the various. points appear to burst forth spontaneously. But. the present object is to examine a little further ; and since there can be but few readers who by the time they arrive thus far will not have already perceived that the second sketch refers to the state of this coun try, we will proceed upon that supposition. — The great body of the people is composed of the Landed Interests, and.those dependent thereon— the solely Mercantile, and the-strictly Manufac-. Wring class, working artisans , being -so called— the first division and its dependencies comprise from two-thirds to three-fourths of the whole as to numbers • and importance ;' the other two divisions may perhaps contribute to .form .the remainder, in portions pretty nearly, equal be tweet' them. That the state of the Manufac turers. is good, every source of intelligence fur nishes additional proof,and their local press teems with daily declarations of it ; which could not be the case were' not that of trade or.commerce brisk from some cause , or, other. Our institutions civil, municipal and criminal, which collectively are termed our Constitution, do both in- theory and practice far outstrip every other on the road towards perfection, and leave us little or nothing to desire beyond what the frame of society itself can supply. What then are the causes of such ailments ? would be .a natural inquiry, and the reply would be no less obvious, viz. sucP(as arise and necessarily result from too great a .degree of generosity and nobleness of soul, which ,has fre quently prompted not only the wish, but also led to reiterated attempts at serving- all the world rather than attend, to our own necessities. But in .the result at length, like. the old man. with his boy and ass. in the fable, we S have failed. in pleas ing those for whom we have gratuitously exhaust ed ourselves, by- endeavouring to aid them ; and iu addition_ thereto. have lost the substance in the combined stream of time and events, the former of which, like an irrevocable flood, and the latter an irresistible' torrent., are every Moment'Precini tating all things over their brink into the gulf of .eternity.: Regret for the; past is therefore now unavailing ; butt° speak plainly, the.truth must thus be rendered. The British Empire, as" a total,is in a state, of exhaustion'and extreme em 7 barrassment ; nor is it of any use longer to at tempt to disguise the fact—it has sacrificed itself at the shrine of a romantic, but truly -imaginary, though as truly noble, a sense of feeling for others. It now becoMes only too sensible of the effects of that arduous chivalric spirit . •vitli which it was, and would doubtless,but for hitter past ex perience,be again completely animated and excited into action, in order to accomplish it. It is sincerely to be hoped that it has gained wisdom with its dear bought experience. But by What means we : may be enabled once more to settle into a state of tranquil prosperity, so that 'not one or two classes of society, and those' the smallest, but that all may prosper and flourish, is at 'present the grand difficulty, not with this or that party alone,. but with all. = The 'regaining Of which appears,. with our present accumulated load of debt, and state of taxation necessarily incident thereto, to be out of the reach of human effort, or probabi-; 'lay of attainment; before a general convulsion shall have shaken offthe cumbersome and Weighty, burden which. now oppresses the. Country and .bows it down to earth, tdo nevertheless assert it tonbe perfectly practicable, and may, it is not .unlikely, attempt. to prove, perhaps even with Some chance of success, that a convulsive effort not,is needful, in Order to restore th e Country' generally to a prosperous condition... In 'the firstplace . , and in my own per son,l ab jure all party' considerations, save Those'bf truth aod the welfare, of my native land. And wi th th is assertion of motive thus' broadly,, and in 'so unqualified manner made, i 'm'ay be allowed to proceed in the consideration, of the means whereby this end may be attained. Our burthens are nut suscep ff tible of diminution to any very great'extelit, and were there no demand for the unavoidable expellees of GoVernment,.the. interest: only of the Na w - tional Debt would require . a revenue:-of from 45 to 50 millions annually. It .is quite needless to labour to prove this point ; and it must be equally so to go about to establish the fact that no State can exist without having the means furufshed . to it for defraying the current expenses of its executive power. Seeing then that the pressure cannot be alleviated" in that quarter by any pos sibility, what folly ! nay, more, what mischiev ous madness, is it not to raise the empty cry of lighten of Our burdens, lessen our taxations And of like fertility it will prove to make a po- pular clamour-of ‘‘ reduce the rents, lower the poor s' rates, diminish the other inevitable out goings and demands." As well, .and as reason ably might it be said in words, do what is impos sible—do what is impracticable,—do what is out of your power—do, in short, that which none but lunatics could demand, or the ill designed even contemplate. That something however should speedily be done for the effectual protection of that class whose major interests of the whole community are so seriously threatened with ruin, must be admitted ; for in truth, the very exist ence of agricultural and landed property is open ly menaced with ultimate annihilation as to value. That this never could have been designed, but must be the unforeseen and unavoidable result of combined events, which were perhaps only the offspring of others still more remote and uncon troulable, is Clear, one *Would think, to the most unretlecting,and shallow capacity. There can be no doubt but that any Government in the world similarly situated must wish things in a diffe rent state; and" that wish, the father to thought; and grandsire to its - legitimate offspring; action, would Without question induce such Government to dowhateverlay within - its pOwer to remedy so growing 'an evil, so .truly dangerous itt its - nature and tendency. Nor-need-there beta shadow of doubt butthat our own" Government, upon pro per representation,- would - lend its. countenance and protection,' and -perhaps even its assistance,. to-promote that which.would be-for its own ad vantage when .once : put:in‘ a,clear light. Prosper ous as the state of :manufactures and trade lIQW itwould be rendered much more.s.o by-the proSperity of the other class (Agriculture) beingsuperadded. This if once permanently.secured, as it necessa rily must. be, when : and . would as soon .as. the farmer received. a, compeasating price foi; his. pro. duce, could. not fail, in. addition to the foreign demand for the manufactures..of the country, Ma- . terially to increase,. ,say double, perhaps the prosperity of the other two classes, Who; whatever they may be pleased to * think, 'are, after all, mainly dependent upon the demand of the home market for their own well-being. And who truly cause the.'hoine'detnand ?, • Is fit . not the bulk of the inhabitants,of the country,..?„ , Is it not the Landed . Interests, and those depen.; . dent upon them, fOrining the first divisiod:Of so ciety.in the British Empire, and comprising from two-thirds to three-fourths of . the whole, 'both in numbers •and..importance, as.'we have'Lseen, -and . as has been admitted from the, first ? I am really. ashamed to. haVebeen obliged to labour thus at length, in order to prove a point not, lesS clear than that 'fivo and tivo make 'four.- But'having at last established the point that Agriculture and its dependencies form a vast majority of the Nation, what egregious folly is it not on' the parts of the Manufacturers to attempt either to injure or im pede its success ; since in so doing they not only lessen-their own advantages, but at times almost destroy them, or, at. least, they thereby sometimes deprive themselves of all benefit. -1 must, however, acquit the. Manufacturers as a . body of,acting so insane a part ; but whilst I do this I charge them with a responSibility perhaps still more heavy, in suffering their character to be pot forward, and made the ostensible bugbears of a faction, in whose hands they are nothing better than the merest tools. Their cause, and that of the Agriculturists, is truly, one and'indivisible ; 'why then can they not agree together ? I will tell them—because they suffer otriers, of all, and every, and no name nor character, to assume and usurp theirs, to drag forth their pretended interests, in professed advocacy but real injury, at every turn, and on all occasions, to serve their own blind ends Or nefarious purposes. You can not protect the farmers, cry they, for in so doing you will ruin or at least injure the Manufacturer. by compelling him . to eat a dear loaf—lying pur blind knaves that they are Is this, can this pos.; sibly betheir motive, that the artisan should have bread cheap, nothing less ; with this in their ,mouths indeed, nothing .on earth can be ftirther from their.hcarts. Such however is the. outcry, constant, hollow, and loud,. of modern political economists, so called, but truly designated. only by the term of political quacks.. My object is not however now to expose thetn--- 7 -it is to tell the Agricultural and Lauded Inteyests, that the re medy is in their own hands, if. they will .but use it; not merely to allay or palliate the present -evil which preys on their vitals,- and will soup otherwise end in death, but to perfect their future security, if it d.o not alsO furnish them with in demnity for the past. They are not so besotted, I trust, as to slight or neglect the warning; if they are,. they can only be cOmpared'tO one, who . being told that his most valuable property was burning, but that . the 'means of effectually arrest ing the progress 'of the flames were - within reach, and were such as it W.as in his individual power to apply, as well'and as'efficaCiously as could be done with the assistance of others,should answer " Um! what of that ?" the Churl, 'however he might be pitied, could only be left to his fate.
