THE LONDON JOIJAINALS. *'TRACTS FROM TILE" DAILY SIOR:+IING .PAPERS, October 11, 18'22. [THE TIMES.] The French Papers of Tuesday arrived last night. The Defile* states, " that the last news from the Morea confirm the advantages gained by. the Greeks over the Turks ; and it appears certain that after some contests two Pachas have been taken 7 with more than 1,200 horses or mules, laden with baggage. The result ofthese advan tages is the. entire dispersion of the Ottoman army.. The Greek Government, which. fled with so much precipitation from its place of residence at the time of the preceding reverses, has been declared to be at an end by the, Chiefs of the army of the Hellenists. They have appointed a new Government; whose principal members are MaurOCordato and Prince Demetrius. Ypsilanti." • A semi-official paper : its evidence, therefore, on the sub ject of the Greek successes, is the more credible from being re luctantly given. 'Advices, dated the 9th of August, were re ceived 'yesterday from Bahia, by way of Per nambuco. The expedition from Lisbon arrived on the preceding day, and had scarcely entered the harbour when the squadron from Rio de aneiro was descried making for the same desti nation. This is a most critical event for the Por tuguese party at Bahia, which would probably enable them to retain the ascendancy, and keep down, for a period at least, the attempts making to establish independence. On the approach of the fleet from Rio tie Janeiro, the Portuguese squadron stood out to sea, as if offering battle, but both remained in sight of each other when the accounts loft, without having come to an en gagement.—(lbid.) [NEW TIMES.] By way of France accounts were yesterday re ceived, from Pernambuco to August 18. The Pheasant sloop of war , had arrived there from Bahia, with letters to 8 August. They convey the important intelligence of the expedition of Portugal, as well as that from Rio, having reached Bahia. The Calypso frigate, containing the Por tuguese army, to the extent of about GOO troops, reached its destination on the 6th, and the Rio squadron arrived on the same day ; the former 'succeeded in landing its troops. The Bahia' squadron, thus reinforced, bore in sight of the Rio •squadron, but neither seemed at all dis posed to proceed to hostilities ; and boats were perpetually passing and repassing. with communi cations from the different Commanders, for the purpose, it was supposed, of negOciation, or of endeaVouring to bring one party over to the other. It was said that the Prince Regent had made very splendid offers to General Madeira, the Commander of the Enropean troops at Bahia, to go over to him; but it seems that the Governor remained quite inflexible. The warlike state in which the town of Bahia has been so long held, and the preparations which have been making to defend it, have entirely put an end to all com mercial speculations, which have been so effec tually destroyed, that the Bank has been com pelled to stop payment, and the merchants have become extremely alarmed for the safety of their property, whether tangible or floating. They were taking every precaution to save themselves from the desolation which every where surround ed them ; large quantities of goods had been shipped to Rio and Pernambuco, where the markets had, in consequence of receiving such unlooked-for supplies, become wretched in the extreme, and sales were altogether impracticable. [MORNING POST.] We received last night French Papers to the 9th inst. They state that a letter had been brought by express to Paris, announcing that General 'Berton had been executed at Poitiers on Saturday last, at eleven o'clock in the morning. Sauge and Jaglin had been removed under a strong escort to Thouars, where their sentence was also to be carried into effect. But Caffe bdd committed suicide some hours before the time fixed for his execution. Means had been found. pf conveying a sharp instrument to him, with which he inflicted a deep wound in his groin, and bled to death. Further details are promised ; but this account,, although not official, was considered to be substantially cor rect. This execution will not produce on the French people so deep 'an impression as that of the four youths whose blood was lately shed at Paris as accomplices in the Rochelle conspiracy. Berton was the head of a plot, the leader of an insurrection ; he had boldly ven tured on an enterprise out of which there were but two issues, success or the scaffold. From the mome►rt that he was taken, he knew, and all France knew, what must be his fate. He had besides been the chief cause of his own failure by his hesitation, his timidity, and his unaccount able retreat, after having been in possession of one half of Saumur for several hours, without having met with a single soldier to impede his further advance. He had also committed the fatal error of suffering himself to be ensnared and taken. He was therefore the object of but little' sym pathy in France. But far different was the situation of the four Rochelle youths. They were not chiefs or planners of the plot ; they were not the seducers, but the seduced. They had been drawn, with the characteristic thought lessness and imprudence of youth, into an enter prise, which it was impossible that early habits and feelings should not have rendered consonant with their wishes, although they might not have shared in its criminality, had not artful tempta tions and solicitations assailed them. [MORNING CIIR..ONICLE.3 Rumours of all sorts are still afloat respecting the pending appointment to India and other Cabinet arrangements. If Ministers wished to do a popular act,every body might foresee the result of their deliberations ; but as the man who is notoriously exactly fitted for the post, has not a 'single advocate in the Cabinet, and the good of the governed is but a secondary consideration with them, we may expect that as usual all the doubts and mystery will end in the exposure o( a job, with 41 its contingent arrangements, It was oberved in former ages, that Bishops could never meet to consider spiritual matters, 1 and debate high doctrinal points, without soon sliding into the seducing subject of tithes " Sermonem ad decimas vertere," became, indeed, a vulgar proverb for digression—tithes were, in ,short, the Red Lions of the Clergy, and filled every niche in their synods, to the great detri ment of Religion, and scandal of the order. — This ancient practice is now about to be revived, for the dignitaries of the Church seem never to open their mouths but tithes are the Alpha and the Omega of their discourse. In the three Episcopal Charges to the Clergy that have lately been submitted to the public eye, the subject of tithes has certainly, to say the least, formed a very prominent feature. There is something most discreditable in this miserly anxiety and trepida tion for the coffers of the Church. At the very first whisper touching tithes, the Clergy cry out thieves, robbery - and sacrilege. TheG overnmenfwhich they have so steadily supported appears to inspire them with no sense of security, and like misers over their treasure, though encompassed by the most jealous guards and barriers, they yet quake, and mutter of their gold, and dream of coming to want. We cannot but think that it would better become these men not to display such sordid ap-- prehensions, and to rely with the silence of con fidence in this instance, as they have done in all others, on the wisdom of the Legislature. — (Bid.) [BRITISH PRESS.] The Paris Papers of Monday last contain a detailed report—(see THE SUN -- of yesterday) — of the military operations in Greece, which con firms the long-disputed accounts of the victories obtained over the Turks. This report bears all the marks of authenticity, and is of a character quite opposite to the vague and general rumour of the Greek defeats. Accounts from Semlin, after mentioning the total destruction of the Turkish army at the 'Thermopylae and in the Morea, state that the Porte had ordered all the troops that were encamped on the Banks of the Danube to repair to Thessaly, in order to form a new army to act against the Greeks. The late accounts from the Spanish frontiers—(See THE SUN of yesterday)—contradicted the report of the successes gained by the Baron D'Eroles over the constitutional troops commanded by Colonel Tabuenca. The Paris Papers, on the contrary, contend for the accuracy of the original report. They state that the constitutional column was cut off in a defile ; and that a general massacre was made by the Royalists. The Colonel, on being taken prisoner, was immediately shot. It is added, in further contradiction of the Spanish Papers, that Mina and Torrijos were afterwards driven under the walls of Lerida. [MORNING HERALD.] The most important event, communicated by I the foreign arrivals, is the opening of the Extra ordinary Cortes at Madrid. The pretended friends, but real enemies of King Ferdinand, persisted in maintaining to the last that that Prince could not be brought even by personal restraints and indecent menaces, to agree to this measure, upon which seems mainly to depend, at the present crisis, the freedom and independence of the Spaniards as _a nation. But from the short and well-judged speech of the President of the Permanent Deputation (see yesterday's SUN), whose duty it was to open . the Session, it would appear that the, King was in perfect ac cord with the Ministers. M. Valdes (the President) aims, in his speech, to soothe an con ciliate the public feeling towards Ferdinand, and indeed to reconcile the Sovereign towards the nation—which, perhaps, is the more difficult task of the two. The hatred of a party who has injured is more deeply rooted than that of the, party injured. 'I he passions of an individual are more difficult to be assuaged than those of a mul titude. The public, though an animal capable of violence and ferocity, is still at heart easily exorable. The following is the sentence to which we allude : " The King (whom God preserve) has ordained the convoca- tion of Extraordinary Cortes, for the objects with which you are already acquainted, and which indicate, in an unequivocal manner, that his Majesty has it in contemplation to insure our liberties, our Constitution, and our absolute independence by the exercise of his sacred prerogatives. 7 It may be thought that not even the public func tionary who uttered this sentence can have any confidence in a Prince whose acts have so dis astrously placed him in a state of repulsion to all confidence. But weak minds are the creatures of those who surround and influence them ; and is it not at least possible that this unhappy Sove reign may at last seek refuge, - after so many dangers, disappointments, and disgraces, in the counself of a Constitutional Ministry ? As to the cause of the Spanish nation, the assemblage of the Cortes—a body supremely authoritative, both morally and politically—is of the utmost moment. Whether its independence be assailed by intrigue or by open force, the Executive Government, supported and sanctioned by the Legislative Body, will be the better enabled" to wield the resources of the nation and the powers of State, in carrying into effect the measures, deemed ad. visable for resisting aggression, and for cementing friendship and alliance. It is said that a Mr. N ORTHAIO RE, and Sir CHAS. Wo LSELEY, have entered into recognizances of 5001. each for the future good behaviour of BUNT, previously to his liberation from gaol. A Greek deed for sale, drawn in the Thebais, the 9th day of Epipki, and in the 4th year of the reign of Cleopatra and her son Ptolemy Soter 11., (25th July, anno 113 before Christ), and registered the 28th of Mesori following (12th Sept.), has been brought to Europe by a traveller named Casati, and purchased for the Royat Library of France. It is stated to be the most ancient Greek MS. i 4 existence ; a similar deed of the year 105 before Christ has been published. M. Casati has brought from Egypt several other interesting spe cimens of Greek and 'Egyptian writings on pa pyrus.—(Edinburgh Observer.) CITY, THURSDAY EVENING: By letters received this morning from Liver pool, dated on the Bth current, it appears that during the pre ceding week there were imported into that place, from Ireland alone, 14,841 quarters of wheat, 460 quarters of barley, 2,843 quarters of oats,- 941 quarters of beans, and 3,532 bags of flour. The consequence of this arrival, notwithstanding the sales were considerable, has been a reduction in the value of Irish wheat to the extent of 4s. to 6s. per qr. The best samples of new having been sold at 31s. td 4s. a quarter, and for the growth of 1821 only 255. to 295. a quarter having been obtained. A Government Contract for 150,000 Gallons of Rum, 5 per cent. under proof, was this day taken by several Gentlemen at a pride which averages Is. 4d. per gallon. In the English Funds the operations this day have been lan guid. Consols opened at 82k, and closed at the same value. For the November account, the price is 82i. In the Foreign Securities the usual bustle exists. and much business has been done at great fluctuations in prices. Some of the Members of the Stock Exchange appeared in the foreign market, and en deavoured to produce those scenes which are little honourable to them in their own house. Fair dealing, and not confusion, has as yet attended the operations on the Royal Exchange, and nothing unpleasant has yet happened, unless in the settlements of a few Brokers educated in the regular Stock market. The Spanish Old Bonds are Three per Cent. lower, probably occa sioned by a natural re-action. The loan of Messrs. HAEDI MAND and Sox has not as yet appeared, and the terms being unknown,' no price is fixed for time. The new Russian and Prussian loans are dearer, and considerable transactions have taken place . in them. The following are the general prices of Foreign Stocks this day : French * Five per Cents.

We regret to be obliged to state That the accounts which ar. rived from Munster to-day lead us to expect . a renewal 01 those lawless' acts which disturbed that province during last winter. The merited vengeance which the law inflicted on the misguided peasanty in that quarter, it was fain hoped, would have detered them from a repitition of their atrocious system ; but every day's experience, we are sorry to say, proves the con trary. • The insecurity of life and property is dreadful. The rngrderers of the Rev. Mr. Creagh s servant, near Cork, have not yet been apprehended. ( From tlw Limerick Chronicle of Saturday.) Saturday night lase, between the hours of ten and twelve o'clock, two excellent farm-houses and barns, containing a quantity of wheat, straw, flax, and furniture, were maliciously set on fire and consumed to ashes, on the lands of West Creaves, in this county. A few nights ago a farmer near Newborough, in this county, was flogged, for not acceding to Capt. Rock's legislation. Thursday, a decent-looking young man received a severe flogging from a passenger on one of the mail carts : the cause assigned was, that he presumed to prosecute at the last Assizes the persons concerned in the murder of Buckley. Informations of the outrage have been taken by the Mayor, and proceedings will be followed against the perpetrator. We have received the following from our Newcastle Corre spondent, dated Oct. 3 := " On Tuesday night last, a quantity of hay, which had been sold by auction for rent, was set on fire and consumed, on the lands of Ballinlihane, near Newcastle. An indication of an outrage of a similar nature was attempted on Saturday even ing. As a farmer, who had purchased some stock at an auc tion, was conveying them home, he was attacked by a few men, who beat him unmercifully ; but, fortunately, some friends who were returning from the market, arrived to his assistance in sufficient time to prevent any . further harm to the man, and saved the cattle from being carried off." We understand that Captain Drought is to succeed to the command of the County Police, which are to be united with the City. Of Limerick establishment. F 1103,1 THE CLONMEL ADVERTISER OF SATURDAY.) About eleven o'clock on Sunday night, the house of James Hanly, a poor farmer on the lands of Killenleigh, about three miles from Thurles, was forcibly entered by three men, who ' beat him in a most inhuman Manner, and inflicted several se vere and dangerous wounds on his head with stones, at the same time telling him " if he had complied with the notice they had given him last spring, they would not have had occa sion to be troubled with coming to him again." There is no doubt but their intention was to kill him, as they left him to all appearance lifeless. We are happy, however, to learn that some hopes may be entertained of his recovery. A dwelling-house,lhe property of Michael Morrissy, a far mer, who lives on the lands of Rossualty, in the Barony of Kilnemanagh, was maliciously set on fire and nearly consumed. Wednesday night, a short time after Thomas Brennan and his family (who reside on the lands of Coolkip, near the Horse and Jockey) had retired to rest after the fatigues of the day, their house was attacked by an armed banditti, who demanded entrance—which demand was refused for some time, when three gunshots were fired through the door ; on which Bren nan, being apprehensive from their threats that they would burn the house, opened the door ; and on doing so, he with his son Michael were dragged outside, placed on their knees, and compelled to swear they would quit their farm in six days time," and threatened, if they did not comply, that they should meet the death of Edmund Shea. A very daring outrage took place near Caher, on the night of Friday, the 27th ult. at a place called Garranaclough. About one o'clock 15 armed .men gained an entrance into the house of the widow Bryan, for the purpose, it is thought, of murdering her nephew, at whom one of the party made a cut with a scythe, and shattered his arm dreadfully. His aunt hastened to his assistance, and was treated in the same sanguinary manner by the banditti, her arm having been broken, and otherwise mal . treated. Hearing.some noise, the, party decamped. The same night they attacked the houses of four respectable farmers in the same neighbourhood. (FROM THE CORK ADVERTISER, OCT. 7.) On Wednesday last, several head of cattle distrained for rent, on the estate of Counsellor 'Walshe, in the neighbourhood of Dungarvan, were recued, though guarded by seven or eight policemen—to such a dangerous extent is the spirit of combi nation arrived in that part of the county. On Saturday night week, a house belonging to a tenant of Mr. Kiely, near Lismore, was pulled down by a desperate banditti, two of whom have since been taken and committed to gaol. Within a few i nights two houses have been maliciously set on fire in the neighbourhood of tallow, in the County Water ford, and entirely consumed. These acts, we hear, have been committed through private malice, and were not connected with that general system of devastation which is pursued in the neighbouring counties. The lovers of melody Will regret to "hear that letters were yesterday received from Madame CATALANI, who had been engaged by Mr. ll6ray- HARRIS to perform thirty nights at the Theatre in Dublin, and afterwards by Mr. BOCHSA, for the London Concerts during Lent, stating that she had suddenly been seized with a violent fever and inflammation, that totally dis abled her from coming to England, and that she must remain in Italy during the winter. These letters were accompanied by a certificate, signed by Madame CAT ALANI'S' Physician, verifying the statement. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MAwsmiv-HOUSE.—A fellow named Davis, who pretended to be mad, was brought before. the LORD MAYOR,. charged with having committed a robbery on Thursday last, in a fishing boat lying off Billingsgate. Thomas Ingram, one of the owners of the boat, called the Prince Regent, stated, that on that morning he left the boat before eleten o'clock,' and 'upon his return found the cabin broke opens box also broke open, and 31. stolen. Another box was likewise forced open, and the contents taken away. There were missing, besides the money, some of the witness's clothes, and the register and license of the boat. An Officer stated, that he apprehended the prisoner in a public-house in Dark-house-lane, with the clothes of one of the complainants upon him ; he had no money. The prisoner, upon being asked whether he had any thing to say ? began to talk nonsense, with the view of passing for a madman, but suddenly stopped, on being told that he was per fectly well known. He was committed for trial. GUILDHALL.—ROBBERY BY SERVANTS.—Lucy Parsons, a motherly-looking woman, and Samuel Parsons, alias Stokes, were charged before Sir CHARLES FLOWER, the sitting. Al derman, under the following circumstances : The female prisoner was engaged in attending as nurse upon Mrs. Spriggs (the wife of a hosier, No. 62, Fleet-market), who has, lately lain in, and Stokes, her pretended nephew, . was in the habit of calling there very frequently to see his aunt. Nurse was called down to him on 'Wednesday evening, and after a short conversation together, she 'borrowed 6d. of Mr. Spriggs, which she gave to the nephew, in order, as it seemed to get rid of him. He was then evidently drunk, and on quitting, Nurse begged her master, if the nephew .should call again that evening, to say she was not at home. He did call again about half an hour after, rather more intoxicated than before, insited on seeng his aunt, would not believe she was gone out, and, in short, conducted himself in so disorderly a manner that it was found necessary to have him'taken to the watch-house. _ _ When taken to the Compter, and searched according to cud torn, two pair of stockings were found in a bundle he had with him, which Mr. Spriggs recognized as his property ; : and on his person.three duplicates, two of them for property, which, on inquiry in the morning, turned out to have been stolen from Mr. Spriggs's shop. One of the pledges, a remnant.of very fine flannel, had been previously missed. As the fellow had never been permitted to go into the shop, it was concluded that he must have had the assistance of his aunt, and a constable was immediately dispatched to take nurse into custody. In the interim the fellow's lodgings were traced out, where i was soon learnt that nurse and he were not at all related, and she had supplied him for the last six, weeks with the means of defraying the rent of the apartment. Stokes prudently held his tongue, but the female prisoner was extremely voluble and had prepared herself with a very plau sible defence. She allowed she had given the flannel to Stokes to pledge, but had bought it of a Mr. Stone, the person whom Mr. Spriggs had succeeded in the shop, and whose stock he had taken; It was no wonder, therefore, her master thought it was his, as it was probably cut off the piece, the remainder of which was among the stock he had subsequently purchased. Mr. Spriggs was, however, enabled to swear that the flannel had never formed part of the stock of Mr. Stone,- but had been purchased subsequently by himself. As Mr. Spriggs stated that various other articles had been missed, the prisoners were remanded for a few days, in order to give time for the necessary inquiry whether any thing further could be traced to their possession. Bow ST RE T.—Yesterday Willianz Hughes, a " shabby gen teel" looking young man, was brought before the sitting Ma gistrate, Sir RICHARD BaRN XE, charged by Mr. Tate, a silver. smith, in Salisbury-street, Strand, with having defrauded him of a quantity of silver and plated goods. The prisoner was some months ago chief clerk to Mr. Gray, a silversmith of eminence, -in Sackville-street, Piccadilly. On the 18th of May, he called at Mr. Tate's, and selected silver and plated goods to the amount of about 101. which he wished to have for sale to a person that he knew, upon commission, a mode of doing business very common in the trade. From his former respectability witness had not the smallest hesitation in letting him have the goods, the condition being, that he should return them, or bring the purchase money the following day.— He called two days after, without either the goods or the money, but made what appeared a very satisfactory apology, and re quested to be furnished with another lot of goods of higher value than before, which was very readily acceeded to. He never made his appearance again at Salisbury-street. He was not seen by the witness until yesterday morning, when he met him in Bedfordbury, and gave him in charge to an officer. The prisoner said he should not make any remark at present. Mr. 'fate said his principal object in bringing the prisoner up was that the trade might be guarded against him, for lie had every reason to believe that he had practised this system of depredation upon nearly half the silversmiths and jewellers in the metropolis; the circumstances of his having been at Gray's, and his supposed high character giving him a facility in obtain. ing goods which no man otherwise situated would have possessed. The prisoner was remanded until Tuesday next. Edward .21/ 4 Williams and. Charlotte AP Williams, alias Crane, were charged on the following statement, as given in evi. dence by the witnesses. On the night of Tuesday, the 12th of September, Mr. Samuel Skelton, a jeweller, at No. 2, Upper King-street, Bloomsbury, was plundered of a silver teapot, some spoons, and jewellery, to the amount of 2001. Some bundles of small pencils, used to put into silver cases, were also taken away. Within the last two days, however, the officers obtained such information as led them yesterday morning to apprehend the prisoners at Draper's buildings,. Burton-crescent. The officers proceeded to search their apartments, when, concealed in various curious places, they found about 30 picklock and skeleton keys, a small crow bar, 3 phosphorous boxes, and several pipe-keys of Bramah's patent, a pair of gold ear-ring drops, and a number of duplicates relating to articles of jewellery. In the male prisoner's pocket, they found a bundle of small pencils, which were identified by Mr. Skelton as part of the property stolen from his house. The drops also he believed to be part of his property, but could not swear to them. The male prisoner, in his defence, said lie found the pencils in the street, and that as to the skeleton keys, &c. he knew -nothing of them. The other prisoner said the keys, fire-boxes, and crow-bar, belonged to her brother, Daniel Crane, who was transported about eighteen months ago, and she had imprudently kept them ever since. While the examination was going on, the Magistrate saw a pair of rings in the woman's ears, ail directed them to be examined by the prosecutor and officer. This was done, and Mr. Skelton immediately identified them as being his property, and as belonging to the drops, which of themselves he could not swear to. The prisoners were committed for re-examination. The male prisoner was considered to be a man of unimpeachable character. He worked regularly at his trade as a carpenter, generally spent his evenings at a respectable public-house in the neighbourhood, and was remarked among his acquaintance for the seeming steadiness of his habits. H€ is a very intelli gent man. CORONERS' INQUESTS. Wednesday evening an Inquisition was held at the Marquess of Wellesley, Cromer-street, Brunswick-square, on the body of George Berrey, aged 30, who put a period to his existence by cutting his throat.—The Jury returned a Verdict, that the deceased cut his throat, he being at the time in a state of mental derangement. _ Another Inquest was held, at Middlesex hospital, on the body of Joseph Ham, a carman to Mr. Bray, of Compton street, Brunswick-square, who was killed in consequence of a stove falling upon him, which he was assisting to remove out of a cart.—Verdict, Accidentally killed by a stove falling on him. An Inquisition was taken yesterday in Tothill-fields before JOHN HENRY Grid., Esq. Coroner for Westminster, on the body of Catherine Swaine. Mr. John Lavies, partner of Mr. Hanbury, surgeon to the prison, deposed that she died of wafer in the chest. Every thing was done for her that her case admitted of, and there was not the smallest doubt that she died a natural death. The Coroner said that it was clearly established by the evidence of the medical man, that the bruises on the deceased's body, however acquired, were not a subject for their inquiry. The Jury coincided with the Coroner, and returned a Verdict—'That the deceased died a natural death. On Wednesday evening an Inquisition was taken at the Black Horse, High-street, Poplar, on view of the body of Mr. Curwood, late clerk in the employ of Messrs. Wigram and Green, ship-builders at Blackwall. Verdict—Accidental Death, frone Drowning. Last night an Inquisition was held at the Coach and Horses Marlborough-street, before Thos. Higgs, Esq., Coroner, on the bodyof Mr. George Bowen. It appeared from the evidence, that the deceased was 60 years of age, partner in the house of Smith and Bowen, paper-stainers, in Poland-street, Oxford street, and generally enjoyed a good state of health. On Wed nesday, . about twelve o'clock, when in conversation with Mr. Smith, in the warehouse, be was suddenly taken ill, and Mr. Smith seized him in his arms, and put him in a chair. The family doctor was instantly sent for, and he arrived as quick as possible ; but, upon feeling his pulse, he pronounced him quite dead.—. The Coroner and Jury coincided with the doctor, that the deceased's death was occasioned by apoplexy, and rekurned a verdict to that effect. NOTO ' l °' RESTORATION OF THE STOLEN- - TH E IPSWICH pgNKERS On Wednesday, between four and five (fel() ; 6 he negociation which has been for' sof" t i e going on between Messrs. A LE xANDEIts , ,°",heir ° Ipswich Bank, and the 4 ‘ borrowers" 13 ', e r notes, terminated. It was stated on a I°-1 4 , 55 occasion that a restoration of the propertY offered for 6,0001., and that the Bank ers man vred until they had made arrancrement s d defeat the aims of those with whom theY ' Le n all t he found it so difficult to deal.

The references great, and it is is supposed.that very fe w Of Or t s " CC borrO W ` *-7 ,.. stolen notes are in circulation. The oen ce o p t alarmed at this measure and the conseq held a meeting and discussed the necessi c a rp abating in their demand, and after. Some s ct he words upon the subject of the *division cb.oi, spoil, came to the determination to offer 01 1 ',F he worth of the notes for the sum of 1 7 5 ° °/ ; the Jie n o f gang sent this proposal to Messrs. Fry, agents ; and added, that as for the deficienel 3,0001. which their necessities had o bliged til „ e r , hou o . o , to circulate through the country, after able division amongst the several gentlemen ( r o c, cerned in the transaction, the bankers ha l 5 5, doubt made up their minds to be at that vary They, moreover expressed regret at the I ; te a cramped state of their own finances, wh ic " ra kers' not been Ye;;fe them to offer any compromise.
