Meetings had been held in Bombay among the various castes forthe purpose of raising funds to relieve the suf ferers. The force stationed on the island of Kishma, under the command of Lieut.-Col.

A PRACTICAL TREATISE o n NERVOUS, BILIOUS, and INFLAMMATORY AFFECTIONS, with, a ne w Me-. thud of Curing Strictures without the use of Bougie or Caustic. With an Appendix on the Diseases of Women and Children. BY John Lynch, 44, Duke-street, St. James's. Sold by Wm. Crawford, 124, Cheapside. CIT Y, MONDAY EVENING. During the last week there were imported into London, 7,586 quarters of Wheat, 1,292 quarters of Barley, 9,390 quar ters of Oats, 1,775 quarters of the sane article from Ireland, and 9,410 sacks of Flour. The average prices of all kinds of grain for the week ending the 7th of September, by which im portation is regulated, were 38s, Bd. a quarter for Wheat, 21s. 2d. for Barley, 17s. Bd. for Oats, 225. 2d. for Beans, and 245. 3d. for Pease. This morning there was a considerable increase in t he quantity of farmers' samples of wheat at market. At the opening, 'the millers, as usual, came forward, and purchased a few runs of the best description at fully the prices of last week, but otherwise the demand was uncommonly dull, and a quantity even of farmers' samples remained unsold. In old 'Wheat scarcely any business could be dcine. A cargo of fair Irish Wheat, about 581 b. a bushel, was sold at 345. 6d. a quarter. At Cork, the prices received this morning, are 10s. to 155., a barrel ; and at Belfast, an importing district, the best Wheat is only worth 275. 4d. Irish per quarter.— Of fine new Malting Barley, very little has yet appeared in Mark-lane on sale, and as many maltsters must begin working as early as possible, the' demand is more extensive than the supply, and 355. a quarter is the price for a few selected samples. ,This is bringing the value of barley too muc h on a l eve l w i t h that of wheat to be lasting, and the first full markets must pro duce a great decline in this article. For old barleythere is very little demand. It is only. valuable for grinding, and finds no buyers above from 18s. to 21s. per quarter at this early period of the year. At the Stock Exchange money is rather scarce this day, and the British Funds are- very inanimate. -Bank Stock is about 248 k for the opening. The Proprietors must adopt some plan for the employment of their capital, but it is still uncertain whether any stop will be taken before March for repaying a part of the capital, and reducing the interest on the remainder. Con sols for cash are - dull at 81 a 814, and for the account there are sellers at 81a. The New Fours are 1801. This being a close holiday-with the. Jews . , their absence was materially felt in the operations in the Foreign Funds: From Holland higher prices are this day announced, and an express from Paris also advises an advance there last Saturday. On that day the rents had ad: vanced to 92 35: The Ncw Spanish were 63 and the Old 68; and the Neapolitan had b een i n d em a n d at 76k. Here, in consequence of the'holiday,!lesS business has been done in them than for some weeks past. Still, however, their value in every respect is fully supported, particularly the Prussian end Rua sian new loans, in both. of which considerable investments have been effected. The general currency of them is as follows : French * Five per Cent. Dividend from 22.1 gept., 92 50'75. Spanish * Five per Cents. of 1820, Dividend' from Ist May, 68i .Ditto Five per Cent.

O'Corrx mt, for having on the 10th instant, maliciously, wickedly, and without any manner of provocation, wantonly and forcibly, ducked him in a tub of dirty suds or foul water, .whereby his clothes were abused and destroyed, and his person seriously . injured.—( Dublin Free t'itan's Journal.) RUSSlAN DlSCOVERlES. — hieut.Chiamtschenkc, in the service of the Russian-American Company, discovered, in 1821, • a large uninhabited island, situated in 59. 28. N. la titude, and 164. 56. W. longitude from Greenwich. Captain • Wassiljew, also, is said to have discovered an inhabited island, hitherto unknown, in 50. 59. 57. N. latitude, and 193. 17. 3. W. longitude from Greenwich. It is 40 miles long, and the people are probably of the Aleutian tribe, as the interpreter communicated with them by means of this tongue. They call themselves Nuniwak. Captain W. named the island after his ship Otkrutjie. He boasts of having penetrated in 1820, nine ,teen miles further north than Cook; or to 71. 7. N. and to have discovered on the north-west coast of America, two capes, which he named after the:Russian Navigators, Golowin and Ricord.• injurious consequences. Advices from Penang. of the 15th of March had been received at Calcutta, stating that the Siamese had fitted out about 20 small fast-sailing junks, to cruise against the Pegue traders to Penang, to the great injury of that trafil . This was said to have been done at the instigation of the Po - tuguese factory at Bancock, who had also urged the Siamese to make conquests of all the Malay States. Penang, it is said, was insufficiently provided with troops to protect the property and theyves of the inhabitants against the Siamese, who are represented as a rapidly rising power, and able to • muster 50,000 men on any expedition they considered wortli k i accomplishing. Mr. Crawford, and the members of the mission to Siam,, arrived at Malacca on the 13th of January, in the John Adams. This undertaking, which has been before al. luded to, was entered on at *the suggestion of the Marquis of Hastings; and his views extend to the ascertaining the means of increasing the trade of the British settlements, with all the ports and islands of the Eastern Archipelago—a mission for which Mr. Crawford's previous studies and inquiries peculiarly qualify him. The Government of Be i val having ordered a scien tific expedition to be fitted out, under the superintendence of the Company's Astronomer, for the purposesof ascertaining the length of the pendulum at the Equator, to combine with operations lately performed in England, France, Madras, and in various other parts of the globe, the same, most liberally fur., nished, sailed on the 13th of March for Bencoolen, to proceed thence to the Equator. Captain Crisp, of the Bengal establish.. meat, was appointed to conduct the operations, under the au perintendence of the Astronomer, and had the aid of two assist. ? ants. The data requisite for determining the length of the pendulum would be obtained by th e p ar ty, and transmitted to the observatory, where the conclusions were to be drawn. Other valuable information is also expected to be obtained. The only passage in these papers at all relating to military operations, is the following extract of a letter from Major Faith full's CaMp, banks of the Tonse River : " OunE, FEL 20.—Since the reduction of the fortified vil lage of Burgong, on the 9th instant, no fort has resisted Major Faithfull's detachment. Yesterday a place near this river, containing a garrison •of 5 or 6 men, was dignified by being in:, vested by the squadron of the Ist Light Cavalry, a company or infantry and two six pounders, to which this mighty garrison soon surraidered! The TOMO being at the ford crossed by the detachment full five feet deep, it required a day and a half to cross the train. - The gunpowder was transported across in small dingles, and' the carriages dragged Ify main force through the water to the other side. Casim Ali Khan has several forts near this. It is certain lie is desirous of peace ; but it apnbars that the Prime Minister has treated him so ill, that out of des_ p eration,h c may probably fight. Casim Ali Khan is much'esteern ed by all British officers who know him. Major Faithfull visited one of his forts the other day; and it is to be hoped he has given Casim Ali Khan assurances of just and fair treatment when the Aumil Meer Oholaum Hussam makes the settlement with him ;_ the latter appears a very good kind of man, not at all ii dined to oppress, but there is no saying what orders he has re ceived from the Prime Minister at Luc - now. On the 11th in stant, Major FaithfulPs force was' reviewed in presence of the Aumil. The cavalry made several brilliant charges, and the whole spectacle went off with great eclat." POOI, RATES, &c. The Report of the Select', Committee . oppbinted by the House of Commons to incinire into the amotnit'ind ap propriation of the sums levied on' account of the poor in.

The result of the comparison or these accounts is, that it ex hibits a " continued reduction in the levieS, from the year 1817-18, so that in the l as t y ear the - amount was less by about 300,0001. than the year 1819-20, and less by 900;000/. than in 1817-18.—It appears, however, that the amount of expendit ure for other purposes th an th e relief of the poor has been increis-;' lag in the last three years, viz.': 1818-I9 - - £1,300,534 . 1819-20 - 1,342,658 • 1820-21 - 1,315,868 The Committee declaie'theniieries unable to state positively how this progresiive increase has arisen. It may he interesting to learn the proportion in which the poor rates have diminished since the years 1817-18; premising, that the whole expenditure, as compared with what it was in 1812; has increased. In that year, for example, the 4,v -e gate sum levied was 6,123,1781.;• but the increase has not been progressive year by year since 1817-18, nor is it now pro gressive.

We were consoled by referring to dates. kri general, that Journal must be read with the greatest mistrust. It may be instructed as to facts, but it perverts them, evidently to its own purposes. Wlien any news favotirable to the Greeks is circulated in Europe, the Obierver, preserving silence concern ing things which it knows to be true, seizes hold of some petty advantage gained by their enemies, which it recousits with all its details, and trans forms into a victory. By its Volitical relations, it is able to be precise in its narrations; which thus always appear credible; While the Greeks, who have not yet been able to establish regular communications with Europe, and are more occu pied with fighting than Writing, can only say, " on such a day the Turks were conquered at such a place, and they postpone the relation of the details to some other opportunity." The Austrian Observer, not finding any thing favour able in the recent news, returns to what is passed, and gives us the details of those events which took place between the 4th' and 22d of July, while it ought, at the same time, to haie been in possession of more recent intelligence, but not of so agreeable a nature. We shall abstain, there fore, in order to avoid confusion, from repeating minute details, now become useless, and in their stead shall supply a recital of the affair at Ther mopylat, which was so long doubted, and we shall afterwards give a history of the events in the Peloponnesus, more recent than that contained in the Austrian Observer.—(Constitutionnelj The disastrous news. from Greece, which , we gave yesterday., can no longer be doubted; Our Augsburgh correspondent confirms it by his let ter of September 7. It is less by his victories than by the publication of an amnesty that Chourschid Pacha has succeeded in disarming.• the population of 49 villages between Thermb pylat and the Isthmus. Traitois surrendered to his Lieutenant, Mahmud Pacha, the citadel of Corinth. The Greek Senate, which took refuge at Argos, caused these perfidious men to be beheaded. Colocotroni, with his Alainotes, has . saved himself in the mountains, as we supposed. One circumstance alone seems favourable to the Greeks. • Chourschid Pacha has returned to -Thessaly, where new insurrections render his presence necessary ; but, it is' added, he leavesia large force in 'the Morea ; it is reckoned at 50,000 Turks, which appears to us exaggerated: The Turkish fleet is at Patras,--(Journal des Debats.)

"Tu iiitte - ofaitiele 8 - of the . hulof the 9th of June, 181'9, the Editor . of the ieretAnired fo publish, in his paper of to-morrow, the speech of N. de Thin, in the afrah ortfie journals' condemned' by' the Assize Court' of Paris, as it is sent enclosed. (Signed) St` G. DELAVAtT, Prefect of Police." The above circitlar being addressed to each of the con- di journals, they have all inserted a detailed report of the speech, of which the following is the substance ; M. tie Broe reminded the Court, that the law of the 25th of 11/arch last had con Ned to it a salutary and important power— that of trying and piinisliing infidelity, bad faith, insults, and offences, which might be committed byjournaliits in giving an account of its proceedings. . In the course of the long trial which had recently taken place before them; some journals had daily deviated in their reports from that'Striet veracity which the law requires. But what will not the spirit of party do ? The journaliit is the medium between justice, which proceeds in the name of the society, and the society itself. If, then, the journalist misrepreknts; he cheats society- - ho commits a real forgery. lie does More—he attack s justice itself, by rendering it odious, by denouncing it as oppressive and barbafoni. The fhtifjournals which the Court had to exami ne , were the Con; atitidiciunel, the COurier i Fran9ais, the Journal du Commerce,' and the Plink. The object of these journals had been - to Weaken the force of the charges against the prisoners, and to disguise or entirely destroy them by imperfect or false reports. These misrepresentations had been noticed in the course of the trial, but it would be absurd to suppose that in the course - of a lbng . investigation the Court must every morning suspend the proceedings to engage in a sort of skir mish with thejoUrnalis,ts. It would. be equally absurd to suppose that; after a long trial; the Court must refer to each misreprc sentation,and enteriiitO a discussion with the journalists on all their infidelities. No ► for such certainly is' not the spirit of the law. AS little is it the manner in which the same privilege is executed in a neighbouring nation. It is a power given to the Court flit the Preservation of order and decorum ; and it is to be 'exercised at the discretion, and according to the con- . 'Science of the Court. Let it not be Said that the right of every - one to a defence is hereby infringed. That Would be an insult . . to the Court ;' for who can b e tt er knO w than the Judges what has passed before them, and w h o better appreciap the truth Of a report ? 'M. Broc now proceeded to' review the 'different numbers of the accused journals from the 22d of Auo-Ust to the 6th of September, and contended that they exhibited nuinerous instances of bad faith and misrepresentutibn. The articles in.; tended to render the trial ridiculous, which appeared before the account of the sitting of the.pth instant, were entitkd," Affair called the Plot of Rochelle," Affair called of la Itochelle"„ Affair called (if the Carbonari,". &e. A fit supplement to • this plan was, in the last sitting, transforming the prisoners into heroes and victims, the jurorS• into assassins, and the judges into executioners. Such had been the design of the Courier, the Journal de Commerce, and the Constitutionnel f in. their • numbers of the 6th and 7th. Ile would not trouble and 'afflict the Court with reading the seditious .misrepresentations..- It Was far frOm being his wish to' blame chat pity which a capitid conviction always- produces in sensible . minds. But real pity was - not so noisy. What else than lie had' described it could have been the object of the Constitutionnel:l At the moment , the verdict was given that paper made a cry of sorrow proceed• from the audience, and this cry was represented as - a popular pro test against the decision of the jury. He then proceeded:to cen sure the description which the accused papers had given of the language and g estures o f t h e prisoners • and what they had said respecting the c' sad and mournf u l silence of the audience." The gestures and insulting expressions attributed to the pri soners had never occurred. One thing, however, which had passed afforded a ground for affliction ; that was the conduct , . of some young,Counsel, who, forgetful of the presence of the. Court, and of the dignity "of' their 'profession, had allo4ved themselvesto-be' so far hurried away, as. publicly to embrace one of the condemned prisoners, or rather the hand of one of them on his I benCh.

VIENNA' SEPT. 4:--'the Austrian Observer of this day contains advises from Constantinople' of a very recent date, which'.' resent much in-' teres " Constantinople, Aug. 19. " Several Tartars arrived here the 11th, bringing tne news' that Mahmoud I'acha (probably the Paella of Salonica), after having beaten the insurgents in two rencounters, of which the last took place near Megara, penetrated' the Isthmus, and got possession of the town and citadel of Corinth. 7 " The 15th, a direct dispatch of Chourschid Pacha confirmed this news, adding, that in , spite of the difficulty of the ground,. and' the preparatiOnslor detbnee that had been announcetl,..the Ottoman army had'advanced from Zeitun to Illegara without meeting the least resistance. Forty-nine communes accepted the amnesty, and' Choitrictiid Pacha, faithful to his plan of stiffing . the insurrections-, rather than by force of arms, has no where been obliged to use riour., " Seraskier (C t hourschid) has returned from Megara to Thessaly, .abafidoning to the young and victorious Manmoud the conduct , of the ulterior operations in the Morea. The latter, after the taking of Corinth, detached a corps of NW light troops to Napoli de Romania to retake that place, or to' raise the siege of it, for, strange as it may appear, its fate is not ascertained. " The same day the Porte received the. news that its great fleet arrived before Patras ; Cara Mahmed'Pacha had taken the command and .landed a corps of 8;000 men. "• The Ottoman Army in the Morea is estimated at 50,1)00' men, including the Albanian auxiliaries. "'However difficult it is to get precise details from the Otto; marl 'Ministers, who are themselves insufficiently informed by defective reports, they all agree, at least; hat the most power ful ally of the Turkish army is the division that reigns among , the heads of the army of the Insurgents. Each of them 'only thinks to swell his share of the booty. This, for example, Co-' locotroni has done, who has throvin himself into the Mann.: tains of Maina with the military chest of the corps which he commanded. There he negociates his submission, and wilkob- . tam his amnesty if he knows how to manage matters. " According to letters from Tyros and Athens, which were totally abandoned by the Insurgents on the approach of theOt: toman army, the Greek Government, which had fled from Co_ rinth to Argos, totally dissolved itself on the approach of the Ottoman troops, but not without having previously had the in; dividuals beheaded who were accused of having given up Corinth to the Turks. " P. S.—A letter from Corfit of the 6th of AugUst asserts, without other details,'that Chouischid Pacha; who matches from Corinth on 'fripolizza; has made himself master of Argos." CORFU, AUG.. 11.—We have received certain news of the general defeat of the Turks. It took place at Thermopylce, rendered three . times illustrious by:the armies of the modern Greeks. It is the greatest battle which they have gained since their insurrection. Chourschid Pacha had arrived, at 'the head of an army composed of the forces of Thessaly and Macedonia, and of all'the reinforcements from the Danube, 'amounting to- . get.her to about 40,000 men. On the 20th July he came to attack the pas sage. Without disputing the ground with him, the Greeks allowed bin, to advance far into - the defile. General .Nicetas, who commanded them,. then caused th e T ur k s to b e attac ke d both in front and on their right flank, while a column commanded by Contoyanne debouched by the heights on the side of Molos, and, by an ani mated attack, broke through and divided' the :ranks of the enemy. In spite of this Manceuvre, which • weakened them, the Turks,• following their first impetuosity, fought with - great fury, which only served to render : the battle• more •bloody, without affording them the least favour able chance. After a carnage of more - than' three hours, the column entangled- in the defile surren dered, while the rest of the army sought its safety in flight. Chourschid Pacha, pursued in his re treat,: took the road' to Pharsalia. Led • by this
