presence of the veteran Arrow (belonging to the Vice Clan-
modore, T. Chamberlayne, Bel.), the Talisman, the Gondola,
asd the new clipper of Wessell's, the Leila, no match was
made.

The second prise was a 30/. sup, for the " small fry "

OLDHAM ALLIANCE

The half-yearly meeting of this company was held
at the Town Hall, Oldham, yesterday. Mr. E. A. Wright
presided. The report stated that ;—" Since the last division
of interest arising from the balance of capital belonging to
the company an additional sum has accumulated, which ena-
bles your directors to recommend a further division of Is. 2d.
per share, payable on the 7th of March next to all ohne-
holders whose names appear on the register of proprietors
sealed at this meeting." The statement of as
showed total receipts to the amount of
48,7201. The balance in hand after all payments
from the establishment of the company, and including
411. 12s. 74. for the expenses of the last half year, was
31,5061. 12s. 61d., of which sum 30,0001. was loaned on
mortgage at 6 pet cent. The Chairman stated that the
morgagees had given notice of repayment of money, but
offered still to retain it at 4 per cent. The report and
accounts were agreed to, and a resolution in favour of the
dividend of is. 21. per share was agreed to. It is pretty
generally understcod that the balance of capital will be re-
distributed to the proprietors so soon as the powers of the
company's act shall have lapsed, and the business of the
meeting was merely formal.

TURKEY,

The Levant mail has brought new. from Constan-
tinople to the 26th of January.
The official communications between Austria and
the Porte had not been resumed, but M. de Sturmer
was treating with the Ports without doing to ex.
officio. The differences seem the more likely to be
concluded s, fez as Austria is concerned, inasmuch as,
being frightened by the agitations of the !Jervis, end
the progress of Panidavism, that power is at :ions
now to coanterse, es mach as pomible, the influence
of Ramis. Achmet Effendi, of whose mission your
t has informed you, w to have left for
73°1=ar as
the 30th ult. One of the grievances
against Austria in this matter is the nomination, as
coramissioaer at Shumla, of Tainatzi, a person who
is involved in the charge of conspiring against the life
of Kossuth.
M. de litoff pretends that he has received the
premise from England that the expelled Polish re-
fugees who have been mat to Malta shield be de-
spatched from thanes to America, or to our eettle-
meats in the Pacific. The affair of the principalities
is I..amanita mHorscompli
.cated, and to Tar-
key's against the entrance of tke last 10,000'
men has answered by sending 300,000 more.
The new. of the Greek blockade had reachedConetan-
tinople a short time before the departure of the mail,
and caused a great deal of excitement.

WESTERN CIRCUIT.—BaurroL, Avousr 21.
Birsoaa Ma. James Commas.. . . .

The business of our assize court was Jut night brought to
a slue with the following caws:
BL&Io, Anxinurntedron, e. Onmown.
Mr. Serjeast Hingelike, with whom was Mr. Taprell, con-
ducted the plaintiff's ease, and Mr. Butt, Q C., and Mr.
Crouton, the defence.
The action was brought by the plaintiff as sdministr►tor
of a person named Joseph Butleigh, to recover from the de.
'indent, as executor of ... Thomas Wood, the sum of 2,0001.
upon a bond which, it was alleged( Wood gave to Utilities in
the year 1812.
The Cu. wee tried at the autumn maize, at Bristol, two
years since, having bean sent down as a feigned issue from
the Court of Chancery. and the defence set up upon that
*maim was, t►at the stamp upon which the hood was drawn
was nut of sufficient value, and that the utile was barred
by the statute of limitations. Mr. Justice Coleridge, who
then presided, took a view in favour of the defendant's use,
and ruled sezordingly ; and, by his direction, the jury
returned a verdict for the defendant. The plaintiff, however,
being dissatisfied with the decision, moved t►e court above,
and the result was, that the learned judge's decision was
overruled, end the ease sent by the Vics.Chaneellot Kn'ght
Bruce for trial in the present form.
Instead of going into the facia of the sue, en @germane
was come to between the parties interested to refer the
cause to the Court of Queen's Bench, with power to the '
elan to draw such inferences as a jury relight draw, and his
lordship directed a verdict for the plaintiff subject to the re-
forearm on a special ease.

PRUSSIA.
We bau news from Berlin of the 17th. It states:
—One of the notes winch the Austrian government
is now issuing, inviting the members of the Bend to
name and send plenipotentiaries to the restrict ed diet had
reached the court on the 18th inst. Of course there can
bs bet one possible answer—a denitl. The question of
the general administrative BaLdes commission is not
yet settled. Austria declares that the restricted diet
must decide whether melt a commission can be
allowed to administer the property of she confedera-
tion. As Austria approves of the constitution of
soch a body, it is not to be expected that the diet will
refuse its consent; but even from this permission new
dangers will flow, more especially if the government
takes part in the commission. The view is commonly
entertained that Austria, in favouring the Pru-
den proposal on the commission, is exhibiting
a concessive and conciliatory spirit, sines tt
thereby tolerates a second representation of
Germany, by the side of the diet, and thus periling
the principle of the latter's sovereignty. The main
point is the admission of a supreme authority, beside
the restricted diet. But is it not plain that at some
future conveni-nt time Austria may point to the pro-
pped commission, and argue that u it has arisen
from the diet it must be subordinate to it ? Coburg
is the power which it is said Prussia will name on its
put as member of the arbitral court which is to de-
cide the Mayence fortress affair.

ROMAN STATES.
The decree on paper money has caused much
alarm, for it amounts in point of fact to a forced loan.
A new commission is talked of for settling the finan-
cial question in a way to remove the bad effects of
the late decree t but no one of weight can be got to
act with the Minister of Finance. At the approach-
ing consistory there will be a large batch of cardinals
created, for the number of hats vacant is very consi-
derable. The government has complied with the
solicitation of France for the creation of two new
French bats, which will increase the number of
French cardinals from four to six. In consequence of
the death of Cardinal Glirand three new French car-
dinals will therefore bo eltcted at the approaching
conbilitery. It is understood that the prelates recom-
mended by the French government are the arch-
bishops of Besangon, Toulouse, and Rheims. There
is lees talk than ewe about the promulgation of the
organic laws, promised a year ago.
On the 10th was inaugurated the new chapel
founded by order of the Pope, in the church of San
Lnixi de' Francesi, at his private expense, for the oele-
bration of a daily masa to deliver from purgatory the
souls of the French soldiers who fell in the siege. A
deputation of French officers attended on the part of
the army. M. de Reyneval, the French minister,
with his attaché., was also present at the ceree:ony.

ALGERIA.

The Moniteur contains a report from the Minister
of War to the President of the Republic, stating that,
in consequence of the increase of the civil porde-
lotion in certain towns and districts of Alerts, it
would be advisable to establish civil commissaries
at Medeah and Milianab, in the province of Algiers ;
at Mascara and Tlemcen, in the province of Oran ;
and at Onelms, in the province of Constantine,
to exercise the functions of joges do pair,
delegates of the prefect and mayors. The report is
followed by decrees enacting the appointment of the
five civil commissaries spoken of. In consequence of
this, the districts in question cease to be administered
militarily.
The cultivation of tobacco is making rapid progress
in Algeria. This year 100,000 kilogrammes have
been sent to the stores of Algiers by the planters of
