PARIS, OCT. 22.

• A courier, who left Vienna on the night of the 161, arrived here
yesterday, with the news that the Russian Ultimatum had been
accepted at Ackerman on the 6th. The Russian Plenipotentiaries
bad taken their departure on the 7th.
front the Gazette (haver:elk. )

CONSTANTINOPLE, SEPT. 25.
All the measures adopted by the Porte for this som: time pan
um indicative of the acceptance of the ultimatum of Russia,
sbough it is believed that that Power has as yet received no formal

reviver front tin Divan.
The English Ambsasador, Mr. Stratford Canning, has presented
within these few days another Note to the Porte, with the clew of
forwarding the negotiations relative to Greece. The last accounts
from the Archipelago speak of two actions, in one of which the
Turkish fleet, near Facile, end in the other a division of the Egyp.
Ivan navy, since arriseti at Candia, had suffered great damage.
SEPT. 26.

Though the Porte bas not yet given an official reply with respect
to the naltimatum, the acceptrtion of the demands of Russia are

t •
now papa doubt. It is generally bAieved that a Tartar despstehed
on the 23d was commissioned to convey to the Turkish Commis-
aa.as at Akennann instructions and full no firers to that effect.

There can be very little doubt concerning the acceptance
of the Russian ultimatum by Turkey. Those rights
which the Czsa bad already acquired, though he had not
efnetually exercised them, will be recognised in future
more fully by the Porte, and new guarantees will be
given for the actual execution of its stipulations. The
affairs of Greece will probably be included in the new ar-
rangements, and that country will obtain a modified de-
gree df independence, which, if it will not fulfil the more
sanguine wishes of her friends, will at least disappoint the
revenge of her fannies. The protectorate of Greece, If
it were to be obtained by England, would not countervail
the advantages which will probably be acquired by Russia
on the side of Turkey and Persia. If, in the arrangement,
*filch have been projected, it has been found necessary to.
allot to Russia a larger indemnity for the advantages of.,

kenotages which we are not in a condition to prevent hie I

mast be to find means of indemnifying ourselves, by ac-
viring equivalent advantages in whet-quarters. This we

[From the Delft of Sunday.]
The funeral' of Telma took place this morning at nine o'clock
precisely. The following was the order of procession :
Ist. The hearse, surrounded with the fulils', intimate friends of
Telma, and the whole Company of the Comedic F 14111048, then the
therms gentlemen who were to pronounce a discourse over the tomb,
and the Royal Commissioner of that Theatre.—!d. The testamen-
tary executor. —3d. The notaries, men of business, dce.-4‘ll. l'hy.
swans sod surgeons.-sth. The principal performers of the Royal
Theatres.--fah. Private friends.-70. The performers of the Minor
Theatres.--ilib. Painters, sculptors, composers, &c.-9th. The per.
eons invited by tickets are by mistake begotten.-10th. In all the
carriages those whomoges did not allow them to walk to the place
of rest.
Madame Talmo, whose maiden name was Vanhove, begs is to
announce that she has taken upon herself the education and pros-
pects of the children braeght up by her husband, and that she
means thus to honour the memory of the excellent man whose name
she bears. Th:s proceeding announces as much sensibility as vir-
tue. 'Why was not this generous woman at the bed-side of the man
with whom she was united ? The pomps of religion will, perhaps,
r to-day, join those of the arts over the tomb of Telma.
' After having so lastly praised the generous means by which the
widow of Telma deserves to honour the name of her husband, our
readers will not find the following particulars concerning her merit
' uninteresting:—Mss Caroline Vanhove, daughter of the actor of
the same name, coin out at the Theatre F• &meats at the age of 14.
She soon after married the celebrated professor of danctnr, Petit.
The success she met with, both in tragedy and comedy, had raised
her to the highest rank in her profession; when, in 1810, the ex-
treme delicacy of !ter health obliged her to retire. She had married
Tama several years before that period. Thera sea no children by
this marriage.
The following Account if the last hours of this extraordinary man
is given in a letter from Paris:—
PAID!, OcT. 20.
It was not until five o'clock yesterday morning that Telma be-
gan to be convinced,. by the extrema prostration of all his faculties,
and the film that spread itself before his eyes, that his dissolution
was approaching. iisteould no longer. distitiguish the person% who
surrounded hin. He bad two notaries called, in whose pretence
he confirmed the dispositions of his will, winch had been made
three weeks before. After this exertion, his remaining strength
scarcely sufficed to mutter, in an almost extinguished voice, the
single word "Adieu 1"• which he addressed to one ofthe notaries.
Four hours alter, at 38 minutes after 11 o'clock, he breathed hi
last, apparently without any suffering.
It is generally novena that the malady which has proved fatal
to him was an intestinal schirrus. Mons. Dupuytren was desirous
of performing an operation', Which he was convincedowould have
saved Talmo, had he had strength enough to undergo it. This
operation was to extract that ptmioa of the Intestines which. ac-
cording to this celebrated surgeon, were twisted, and to replace
thesnin their natural state. The optosing of the body will show if
M. Dupuytren's conjecture was correct. -Rut, convinced as he was
of the efficacy of theoperation,he was deterred frion resorting to it by
the stetes of eitreme weakness .o which Talmo was reduced, in eien.
*looser of the total cessation of his digestive functions for 44
hours previous to his death. The singular fact of his continuing
to lire so long in such a state is attributed by the physicians to his
iernarkably strong constitution. One of these gentlemen has as-
serted that, on opening the body, the region of the breast and lungs
will be found in the most healthy and cosset state.
One of the last times the Archbishop of Paris (who has re-
peatedly endeavoured to gain admittance to Talmo presented
himself at his house, and was refused by one of the patient's re-
lations to be brought Intl his presence, he said, " You probably
suppose my intentions are very different from what they are is
reality. My motives are noble and elevated. For along time back
I have been endeavouring to procure front the Court of Rome, that
the ridiculous excommunication pronounced against actors should
be taken off, and the present circumstance may most powerfully
conduce to the success of my endeavours: Telma dying in peace
with the Church would furnish me with a puissant argument.
Moreover, I promise you not to say a single word about religion,
until Talon shall himself mention the subject." It is said that the
last time the Archbishop called, and met, as before, with a refusal, he
lost all patience, and vehemently apostrophized Talma's nephew, a
physician, in the foHowing terms: —" Unfortunate man ! see what a
responsibility you are drawing on your head. Great as is my indig-
nation, I cannot here-punish you tor such unworthy conduct ; my re-
ligion forbids me. But, on the Day of Judgment. when all the souls
of my flock shall appear in the presence of Ood, mine shall pursue
ypurs, and call upon it to answer fur the loss of an immortal soul."
The young physician listened calmly to these terrible menaces, and
firmly but respoctfully refused to introduce his Grace. The Ates.
bishop. did not again return. 3ladame Vanhove, Talma's wife,
also wished to be admitted to his bedside, but he refused to see her.
Site did not insist, hut said, " I am sorry not to be permitted to
see him once more. Tell him, I entreat you, that 1 came to offer
harm teshare my fortune with his children. •
Madame Vanhove has upwards of 40,000 f. a year, that had been
left her by Dr. Moreau (De la Sarthe), with whom she had lived.
It is pr-eisely this fortune that prevented any reconciliation between
her and Talmo, and induced him to refuse seeing her in his last
moments. "As my wife is now wealthy," said he, "it would no
doubt be said that I became reconciled to her through motives of
interest. tier fortune places an insurumuntalle barrier between
us." _

One of the theatrical journals of this morning gives the follow-
ing account of Talons's last moments :—Taltna preserved all his
intellectual faculties to the last moment. lie felt no acute pain,
and only complained of having a cloud before his eyes. lie per-
fectly recognised the friends around his bed ; and on seeing Messrs.
Jouy, Arnault, and Dovilliere, he stretched net his arms, wept, and
embraced them. He said to his nephew, " The physic'ane know
nothing of my disease. Hecommend them to open my body, that
it may be useful to my fellow.crentures;" and in a minute after he
said, "Let there be no priertsl All I ask is not to be buried too
soon." Some time before, he exclaimed., " What do they require
of me ? To make me abjure the art to which I owe all my glory, an
a t that I idolize ? To deny the forty brightest years of my life, to
st parate my cause front that of my comrades, and to acknowledge
them to be Infamous? Never !" A few moments before his death
he murmured in a faint yoicet" 31 alsalt• -Voltaire f'iix Voltaire!"
Thus the grossest Vngetlfito of this age expired in invoking the
name of the greatest tragic genius of the last age.

Sir Henry Hallord, Dr. Maciniebacl, Mr. Macgregor,
and Mr. Simpson, visited the Duke of York yesterday.
His Royal Highness was engaged during the morning

THE SILK TRADE.

. tv

. .

On Monday night. a very numerous Meeting of the broad silk
weavers took place at the chapel of the Rev. Mr. Adams, Church.
street. Mlle-end, New-town; for the purpose of receiving the Audi-
tors' Report of the income and expenditure of a Society which had
been previously established, denominated a General Protection So-
ciety. for the support of the trade.
Mr. Wn. WEas was called to the Chair.
Mr. WALLIS, Secretary, read the Report, from which it ap.
peered that. after an expenditure of 691. there remained in the hands
of the treasurer 1191. (Great cheering.)
Mr. Bon LTER movtd Oat the Report read should be adopted.
Carried with applause.
It was then moved by Mr. Tiros; peon, jun., that it was the
opinln of the Meeting, if the Society so established would be sup.
ported by the trade, it would carry into effcct the object for which
it was instluted —Carried.
It was afterwards moved that the Committee should prepare a
list, or rate of wages, for the different branches of the trade, to be
submitted to the next general Meeting.
. Thanks were then voted to the Rev. Gentlemen for the use of
the chapel, and to the Chairman ; after which the Meeting se-
parated.

UNITED LONDON AND HIBERNI AN CORN AND
FLOUR COMPANY.

A general meeting of the Shareholders in this Company was held
yesterday, at three o'clock, at the Freemasons' Tavern, Great
Queemstreet, Lincoln's Inn-fields, in pursuance of previous adver-
tisement.
It. CAM LEN, Esq. was unanimously called to the Chair.
Mr. CARRELLS stated that he was sorry to see such a thin at.
tentlance of Shireholders ; he was at the same time pleased.
however, to see all the Directors at their poets ; and, without de.
taming the Meeting, he would move that the Secretary do read a
Report '.f the Company's proceedings from first to last.
1 The SECRETARY reed the Report, which awed generally that
the proMoters of the Company, being aware of the dreadful extent
.o which the manufacture and select adulterated and damaged flour
wee earned, and, at the same time, impressed with a feeling that the
manufacture of a pure and genuine article afforded means for a ra•
thinal mid profitable investment, laid the scheme before the world in
the usual way : it appeared, however, that, though meeting with
public support at the mitre; teem a combination of causes, end that
although the most rigid eeoneteny had been adopted,it now became
necessary that the Company should be dissolved. The Directors
and their immediate friends were the chief sufferers by the concern t

before the meeti

party—if they we geoll, and likely soon to be paid ?
The SECRE'T4II,4' stated that payment of the principal debts to
the Company hid Seen guaranteed by a gentleman, in conjunction
with another, w ,- unluckily for the Company. had not signed
the bond ; and question of law arising as to how far one party
who had sign the bond could be called on whilst only jointly
liable with another party who had not signed, the party who had
executed the bond thought he was exonerated. The Company,
constituted like all others of the same kind, could not maintain an
action, therefore there might be some doubt as regarded the pay-
ment of some part at least of the debt •Iluded to.
Mr. CORR:um thought that some one had been very remiss in not
getting the bonds properly executed by both parties ; but there was
another debt said to be due to the Company, amounting to three
hundred pounds, being a deposit on what was called the purchase
of the flotherhidie Mills ; is that recoverable?
The SECRETARY replied that Counsel's opinion had been taken,
and in consequence of steps which had been adopted, it was ex-
pected that the money would be paid in a few days.
A StuaneitoLtien (grumbling)—You have called a public
Meeting when our money is all spent; is it likely that you will let
us have any of it back aga;n ?
The Secit&tan r said that much, and, indeed, all, depended
upon the amount of debts that may yet be recovered.
Mr. COBS ten —Where is the deed of settlement of the Corn-
pany ?
A SHAREHOLDER—It is !mien. (Much laughter.)
The Secretary was called upon to explain. Ile stated that the
better way would. be to read the minutes of a Meeting held in
consequence, by which it appeared that a Mr. Charles Ritchie, of
Greenwich, who had been admitted a Director, in the absence
of the Secretary, thought proper to walk off with the deed and
minute.beok, and neither the one nor the other had been heard of
since. (A laugh.) The opinion of the Solicitor of the Company
had been taken on the subject; but as now-a_days one partner
could rob another with impunity, nothing decisive had been done,
and it - was left for the leetittg of this day to adopt whatever
course might be thought beat.
Illy. CARRELLS thought the better way would be to let the
matter alone.

Another long and unconnected conversation ensued, when it
was resolved that the Company be dissolved, and its afftirs wound
up in the most economical way possible, and that another and
final public meeting be held for the purpose of ratifying this
Resolution. and for exhibiting a detailed statement of the pecu-
niary matters of the Company.

Thanks being then voted to the Citainnao, the Meeting broke up.

-
We hear that the important question has just been de-
cided, That Wien Corn may be admitted for home use, at
the ad valorem duty of teu per cent. provided it is un-
ground.—Liverpool Papei.
In the Courier of Friday last we made sbme remarks
upon certain-transactions represented as having taken place
in the parish of St. George, Hanover-square, and in which
the name of Lord Grosvenor was rather unceremoniously
introduced. We are now informed, upon the authority of
the Noble Earl himself, that the whole statement put forth
at the Meeting of the Parishioners of the Oat Ward of St.
George's is, as far as it regards Lord Grosvenor, " a tissue
of falsehood." In justice to the Noble Earl, we lose no
time is announcing this fact.— Cuurier.

From all the accounts Mini the Continent lately, there is
the greatest reason to fear that a most formidable competi-
tion it not only projected, but proceeding with our manu-
factures, originating in our restrictive system, and stimu-
lated by the high prices at which they are sold, and at
which they must be sold, unless both provisions be afforded
cheaper than they can be now, and taxation be sensibly
diminished. Ilow is it possible that, with a taxation like
ours, and with provisions on the other aide of the water at
half the price they fetch on this side, our artisans can com-
pete with the foreigner? And, should British manufac-
turers be once fairly driven out of the market, will that not
be eventually as ruinous to the agricultural as to the manu-
facturing interest itself? IVill it not diminish the demand
for provisions, and, eventually, the value of land very ma-
terially ? In many parts of the Continent there are strong
inducements to foster and encourage the competition to
which we have adverted. However respected and feared, we
are, nevertheless, for various causes, hated and envied ; and
nothing would give our great and good allies greater
pleasure than to see us humbled. Those of them whose sta-
ple commodity finds no admission into our harbours,and who
have hitherto depended on us for manufactures which they
have been obliged to purchase at enormous prices, naturally
direct their attention to the supply of their owtr wants by
their own ingenuity and industry; and no obstacle that
we know of exists to their ultimate complete success, but
our being able to undersell them ; nor any inducement to
make them slacken in their zeal, but our rect iving, in
exchange for our produce, that of which they have to dis-
pose. Under this view of the situation of this country, in
our humble opinion, it would be not only wisdom, in a
general point of view, as the general welfare is concerned,
but individually, as far as their own interests are involved,
if the great landholder' would advocate a modification of
the Corn lalrfs, coupling with it a great reduction of tax-
ation. It is the firm conviction of our minds that Eng- '
land never can be restored to the state of prosperity it once
enjoyed, but by the adoption of these two great measures..
/nee adopted, Continental rivalry in manufacture woukl
lose its strongest stimulants. The former would generate
a more friendly feeling between us and our neighbours;
both together would enable us to lower our prices abroad,
by being able to work cheaper at home; and, when placed
on tolerably 'equal ground as to price, there can be no
doubt that the perfection to which our manufactures have
been brought will claim the preference by purchasers of
every description. In that case we may fairly presume
upon the whole of our population being once more called
into vigorous operation, at remunerating profits on the one
hand, and competent wages on the other, causing a demand
for food and clothing, conveniences and comforts, luxury
and ornament, which would diffuse satisfaction through the
whole community. Agriculture would feel and enjoy the
advantages of such a change as much as rely other interest.
Its experts:A would be lessened, the demands for its produce
would be increased, the wages of its labours would he ad-
vanced, and the " poor devils," wham Sir J. Pollen com-
lliterates with so much sympathy, would, in a great mea-
sure, disappear. Rents may not be so high as.they are,
but still high enough to enable our gentry to maintain their
distinctions in society. At all even tie they would be ena-
bled to rejoice in the sight of happy faces round them, and
saved from the misery of encounte•riug,j in all their peram-
bulations, a starving, miserable, and begging tenantry,
who seem to be deteriorating in proportion to the continu-
ance of the high price of bread.—Lieerpool Paper.

MELANCHOLY SUICIDE,—A melancholy instaiei of
self-destruction occurred a few days ago at St. Helen's. A
young woman, about twenty years of age, became ac-
quainted, at Leigh, with a soldier, who seduced her, and
with whom she afterwards carried on an illicit intercourse.
The poor creature became pregnant by her paramour, to
whom she was seriously attached. He was rent with a
detachment from his regiment to St. Helen's. Thither the
unfortunate girl followed him ; but the fellow refused, on
her arrival there, to renew his connexion with her. This
cruel behaviour on the part of her lover broke the poor
girl's-heart, and drove her to despair. She immediately
formed a resolution to poison herself. In vain she tried to
procure a deleterious drug at the different aFthecaries
shops in St. Helen's. It•solutely bent, however, upon self-
destruction, the wretched female, it is stated, came all the
way to th's town to procure arsenic, with which, having
purchased it, she returned to St. Helen's. There she went
into a public-house, called for some ale, put the poison
into the jug, and, after throwing the paper which had con-
tained the drug under the fire, drank off the poisonous
mixture. She immediately quitted the house, without any
person suspecting that she had swallowed prison. In the
evening, however, the servant of the house, who had seen
the unfortunate woman throw the wrapper under the grate,
took up the paper, for the purpose of using it to curl her
hair. What was her astonishment to find written Or
printed on it the word " Poison !" She immediately com-
municated to the people of the house the suspicions which
this discovery had raised in her breast, and a search was
instantly made for the unhappy woman. She was found
soon after in the privy, in the agonies of tl:ath, and in a
abort time after she expired, a victim to misplaced affection
and to the wickedness of man.
FATAL AFFRAY AT COGGESHALL.—(FUTiIIer rattiest-
larss)—On Saturday night last, a party of labourers, in the
employ of Mr. Hanbury, met at the Chapel, Coggeshall,
to spend their largess • they were joined by the woodranger
and his son, named Goody, the former beirg tptween fifty
and sixty yeartrof age. In the course of the evening.a
patty of weavers were also in the same, be and some
words arose b-tween Goody the younger aid one of the
weavers, named John Evans. They fought, and the bat*
lasted nearly an.hour. About one o clock on Sunday morn-
ing the labourers, with the Goodys, left the house; the
weavers, it appears, had lingered about the door and yard,
to hcoe them for the victory obtained by their companion.
Among the latter was a lad named Owers, about 18 years
of age, a vender of pies, with whom the elder Goody had
recently disputed respecting his gathering
•nu:s. When
Goody, with the labourers, reached Highfields, being fol-
lowed by • the weavers, the elder Goody challenged the
whole to combat, men for man. The weavers approached,
hut not a blow was struck, and the parties had separated.
Owers, however, kept with the Goodys; shortly after the
voice of Owers was heard by a man named French to ex-
claim " Murder ! you have killed me." French immedi-
ately went to his assistance; he sawfttim falling on his side,
the blood streaming from his left arm, and Owen said,
" 0 Lord; lam a dead man." The Goodys then knocked
French down, -but others came to his assistance; and
French said, pointing to the Goodys, who were then mak-
ing their escape, " they are the murdeeers." OHM pulled
up his shirt, and told Thomas Spurgeon that old John
Goody had stuck him; at this instant the Goodys ran to-
wards Mr. White's yard, where they were apprehended; ota
Goody exclaimed," Murder,murder, I will pay all expmses."
A man of the name of Fenn said to old Goody; why surely you
will never be easy after this, to which Goody replied, lie
did not care about it, and wished Owen might die that
minute.—A man named Browning, who assisted in appre-
hending the Goodys, saw the old man shut a clasp knife,
and put it into his pocket, from which it was afterwards
taken, although he denied having it. in his possession.
Owen survived only about an hour, although Mr. Godfrey,
a surgeon, was upon the spot as early as possible, after in-
formation had reached him, at which time the deceased had
lost five or six pints of blood.
