The state of the capital is still alarming. The military preps.

raised encouragement in order to procure seamen for the visiting

officers who distinguished themselra in the last campaign ; but it
will be difficult to procure able seamen. It is reported here that the
Stetaa is highly incensed against the retvoy of Egypt, because
he is supposed to have secretly tiwmed insurrection in Syria, in tae.

MR. HUSRISSOAr.

A subscription hes been opened at Liverpool for a piece
of plate, to be presented to the Right Hon. Gentleman, in
testimony of the high sense entertained by the subscribers
of the eminent services he has rendered to the country at
large by his liberal and enlightened policy, in removing op-
pressive restrictions from trade and commerce. The sub-
scriptions ate from individuals, not from firms, and no per-
son la to subscribe more than 51. This testimonial to the
important servici.s of Mr. Huskisson will be highly ho-
nourable to the character of the merchants of Liverpool,
and will be the more acceptable to the Right Hon. Gentle-
man, since the names of the contributors comprise the most
respectable individuals of all parties. Upwards of 1000/.
were subscribed before the intention of the parties who ori-
ginated the testimonial became publicly known; and on

The affair which led to the rustication, among others'
of the son of a certain Noble Duke from the Univeerity,
was one to which nothing of an immoral nature attaches*
and which, but for the reverence due to authority, might
have been overlooked as (me of those youthful frolics
which we are likely to witness as long as the world lasts,
and which, if we witness nothing worse, the world would
be much better than it is. The DEAN OF CIIRIST
CHURCH, it appears, had no objec:ion to hunting, but he
objected to the scarlet jacket. That a gownsman should
mount his hide-bound steed, and scour the country like
the King of Terrors, on his pale horse—though even this
might be a step
" Bernn '. the tied and settled rules
01 vice and virtue in the sch,iels,"
was, he thought, an indecorum that might be winked at ;
but that he shou:d come forth from his quadrangle like a
Red-cross Knight, or like a brother to the Scarlet Laity
of Ikbylon, was a stretch beyond endurance, and accord-
ingly the worthy Vicegerent issued his express prohibi-
tion against any students appearing in the equipment of
the eltace within the precincts of " the mighty Tom."
In revenge, some mischievous Nim RODS of die College—
" °nine sacrum rapiente dextra,”
took a secret opportunity, tiering the midnight hour, of
painting the outside shutters oh' the DEAN'S dwelling with a
red of so deep a hue that they teemed as if, like slfacbetlt's
hands, they
" Would the multitudinous sea inearnadine."
Had the Dean, when waking, found a pack of bounds
under his pillow, he could not have surveyed them with
more surprise than he beheld the metamorphose in ques.
tion : strict orders were instantly issued to search the dif-
ferent rooms throughout the College, if peradventure any
paint 'pots might be discovered ; but alas ! none were to be
found. Another edict went forth to examine the ward-
robes, if perchance a pair or besmeared gloves might " betray
the hands which had done the deed of darkness ; they were
scanned thoroughly,but without success. Atiength the uten-
sils of which no trace could be discovered " on the earth be-
neath" were at length found in "the waters under theeartb."
The criminal pipkins were espied, glaring with red, or, as a
late Judge once said, on another occasion, in " the cestame
of their crime," lying quietly by the side of their brushes
in the bed of the Isis! After some time, as is usual in
such frolics, the secret escaped, suspicion lighted, or rather
fell heavy on the son of the Noble Duke, who is now suffer-
ing under the sentence of rustication. While the GRAND
SULI AN, in this age of reformation, has deemed it proper
to limit the fringes of the ladies' petticoats, and the
SOVEREIGN PonTtrr has thundered his edicts from the
Vatican against tight-laced stays, and wearing caps in
church, the DEAN or CHRIST CHURCH may surely he
permitted to issue his anathema against scarlet jackets, and
to be mindful of the reverence due to the sanctuaries of
learning..

GERMAN PAPERS.

SENLIN, MAT 9.
Aeeording to Greek accounts of Seres of 30th April, the disasters
that were said to have befallen Redsclied Pasha, on his expedition
against Miseolinghl, appear to be confirmed. These accounts say
that he experienced a total defcat near Arta, and was obliged in
consequence to return to Joannina, abandoning all his artillery.
COITU, MAY 1.
Ibrahim Pacha, after several actions in which he has bees de-
feated, is in Atoden, and has beheaded all the remaining European
officers not taken prisoners by the Greeks, to whom, according to
the Turkish custom, he attributes his misfortunes. His troops,
which are in want of everything, are said not to exceed 3,000 men
at most. The unhappy course of his operations may, however, be
excused by the fact that he has been waiting in vain for these two
months for the co-operation of the Byzantine fleet, which does not
seem to have yet put to sea ; and on the advance of the Seraskier
Redachid Ptcha. He seems to expect reinforcements from Suda,
but the Greek Admiral Aliaulls, who is cruising between Candies and
the Mores, has already attached a convoy from that place and taken
or sunk several transports, on which the ships took refuge in Suda.
The Seraskier Redschid Pasha, who was advancing by land against
the Mores, has likewise me: with obstacle*, and hes, according to
various coinciding accounts, been defeated near Arta.
Petrel, as we knew before, wan supplied with provisions some
time ago by European ships; but notwithstanding this, extreme
distress prevails in that fortress. The Greeks are now investing it
very closely. Coloctroni and his adherents still are confined at
Hydra, and nothing is heard throughout the Pealreula but the
noise ()farms. All the dissentions among the Greeks have ceased.

CONSTANTINOPLT, APRIL 27.
The accounts lately given by the English Captain who has sailed
to Odesse, respecting the defeat of Ibrahim Pacha. after previous
fruitless endeavours to make himself master of Navarino. are con-
firmed to the full extent, and produce an extraordinary sensation
here. The Greeks are stated to have displayed extraordinary bra-
very in the actions that have taken place. Ibrahim PiChk, desti-
tute of provisions and ammunition, is at Modon, surrounded by
condinioths, and expects either reinforcements or a diversion to be
made by Redschid Pacha on the land side ; but as the Porte has
also received unfavourable news from Amman* it is dear that he
is in a critical situation.
The traitor Odysseus is fors iken by his troops, and according to
report that is generally circulated here, bad ahead) fallen into the
hands of the Greeks. The Capitan Pubs is to sail in five or six
days.—.ll4‘erielne Zeitung, May 29.

HANTS AND BERKS CANAL.
Mr. C. DUNDAS moved the re-committal of the Hants and
Berke Canal Bill, on the ground that the Committee had been im-
properly dissolved, and that the Bill had been unfairly got rid of.
The subject was of much impurtaoce, and the quevtion clear as re-
garded the practice of Parliament.
Mr. IC SMITH expressed his dissent from the Bill, on the
ground that a large majority of the landholder interested were op-
posed to it.
Mr. BRIGHT complained that, after letting those who appeared
for the Canal prove their case, the other party, without hearing the
evidence, came forward to defeat the measure. He strongly corn.
plainetrof the injury which that opposition would ocuisiun to the
communication between three such cities as Bristol, Bath, and
London.

Mr. S. BOURNE thought that, entirely independent of the
merits of the Bill, the House should agree to the re-committal on
the other grounds that had been set forth.
Mr. MABF.RLY opposed the re-committal, there being, in his
opinion, not sufficient time.
11r. ItIONCK considered that the evidence was too voluminous
to admit of the Bill's passing durinj,• that Session.
The question was then put and carried, that the Committee
should meet to-morrow (this day), and proceed with the said Bill.

LICENSING SYSTEM.

Sir F. DIIRDEfII--preaeiited a petition from a person whose
name we did not hear, an inhabitant of Chichester, complaining
of the refusal of the Magistrates of that city to grant petitioner a
publican's license.
Mr. POI' NTZ said, that IN the refusal of the Magistrates might
be imputed to unworthy motives, he wished to observe, that there
were no more honourable men in existence than the three gentlemen
who had been alladed to. Notwithstanding this, he must say he
felt considerable sur➢rise that the application of the petitioner had
not been attended with Sufi:CSC In the year 1823 he had also Sr.
plied for a licence, and been refused, although his application to
the magistrates had been accompanied by the recommendation of 70
of the respectable inhabitants. The date of his second application
was in September last, and 400 signatures were affixed to Iris peti-
tion. Notwithstanding this strung recoinmendation, it had not been
more successful than the former. He should be glad to know what
reason existed, if any, for the refusal, and could have wished the
petition had been brought forward at an earlier period of the Ses-
sion, previous to those liberal regulations which had been made by
the Right Hon. Gentleman opposite (Mr. fluskisson) in relation to
a free trade, because he could net understand why the benefits of a
free trade should not be extended to beer as well as to other com-
modities.
Mr. HUMlD—There was certainly • great necetwity for some
alterations in the existing system of licensing public hOusts, for at
present there was scarcely a single district w►erein some instance of

Complaint In all ranks of society, bet more particularly
amongst the Working Classes. and convinced that it always embit-

who has been cured by Mr. VA N BUTCH ELL, late of No. 48,

SINGULAR RECOVERY OF PROPERTY.

LIVERPOOL TOWN-HALL, MONDAY, Nov. 21.
One of the most fortunate instances of the recovery of
prrs,)erty that has, perhaps, ever been recorded in our co-
lumns, has been effected through the means of Messrs. H.
W. and A. Franklin, of this town. We subjoin the fol-
lowing compressed particulars :—Some time ago a gentleman
lost, in London, three Exchequer bills for 3,000/. Notices
were immediately sent to the principal banking-houses
in the kingdom; the property, however, was of that de-
scription, that no hopes could be entertained of its recovery.
This day, after several previous intervieq/,>l fentlemanly-
looking personage, of about sixty, calling himself Lucas,
presented one of the bills in question, in part payment for
SOO doubloons, at Messrs. Franklin's office, in Dale-street,
who immediately detected it as one of the hills lost. Nu-
merous questions were then put to him by those gentle-
men, to which he gave such replies as induced them to de-
tain both him and the bill. A private hearing was then
obtained before Mr. Wright, the Magistrate, by whom he
was also questioned ; but nothing transpired which afforded
the least clue to the possession of the other two missing
bills. However, in the course of the day, an individual of
similar apparent respectability called at Messrs. Franklin's
office, and inquired for Mr. Lucas (the person then in sus-
tody) ; suspicion was of course excited ; he was watched
home to his lodgings, and the two remaining hills, for
1,0001. each, were found in his apartments. His examination
took place yesterday (Tuesday), and, in consequence of the
great curiosity it has excited, a number of gentlemen at-
tended the hearing, which took place in the Mayor's pri-
vate room. The second individual refused to reply to any
question, and he was remanded for a future examination.
Mr. Wright then, addressing the gentlemen present, begged
to detain them a few moments, and remarked, he was glad
of so good au opportunity to repeat to them, publicly, what
he had haul die pleasure of expressing to Mr. Franklin
privately, the high sense he entertained of his honourable
in'egrity, and of the indefatigable disinterested attention
which he had manifested in this affair. We since learn
that one of the parties had applied to Mr. Joseph King,
stockbroker, to negotiate one of the bills, and that Mr.
King had actually tntended to purchase it ; and had also
presented one to Mr. Simpson, our Collector of Excise, who
would have received it had any duties been payable. Consi-
derable praise is due to the Messrs. Franklin, for their firm-
ness and persevering vigilance in discovering and detaining
the parties ; as, during the absence of one of them in search
of the police, the other was obligated forcibly to detain the
person representing himself as Mr. Lucas. The offenders
were taken before the sitting magistrate, am? were fully
committed to Lancaster Castle—Liver/eel Cum, kr.
