The Paris journals of Monday came to hand last night.
Their contents are comparatively uninteresting. We copy
the following articles :
[llfoxikar of Monday, January 6.)
sroesnotat, Dec. 19..

_
A despatch of Count Nesschode, addressed to the Russian Le-
gation here, to be communicated to our Court, brings us the agree-
able news of the arrangement concluded by Lord Strangford, at
the desire of the Emperor, with the Porte, and by which our
vessels art included in the right of navigation of the passage of the
Bosphorus, as well as in that of transhipping cargoes in the port
of Constantinople. The Turkish Custom-house officers can visit
each vessel but once, and are prohibited from levying any vexatious
duties.
PARIS, JAW. 5.
The solicitude of the King extends at once to all parts of the
army which contribute to the glory and splendor of the throne.
The true friends of the Monarchy have long desired an ameliora-
tion in the situation of a great number of officers, who have hitherto
received to' small pay. Marshal Lsuriston has laid before his
Majesty an important paper on this subject ;, it has obtained the
King's approbation ; and, thanks to his Majesty's munificence, the
sum of 195,000 francs has just been granted out of the Civil List,
as an augmentation of the pay of the inferior Officers and the
Guards of the several companies of the gardes-du.corps, of the
King's Household.

Coaru. Nov. 30.

We have seen the arrival here, and the subsequent depatture on
board an English packet, of the Sieurs Andre Louriods, Orlands's,
and Lydovistis, Deputies of the Hellenist Congress, wbo are ca
their way to London. They were extremely well received in our
Island; fine were given at their departure, and every thing leads us
to presume that the object of their voyage is agreeable to the Go-
vernment of his Britannic Majesty, and sanctions the belief that
their mission will ultimately be crowned with the success which it
merits.
ZAIZTE. Dec. 2.
The Algerine squadron, which noised before Missolunghi' has
been destroyed or dispersed by a naval division which sailed from
Hydra, for the purpose of conveying Alexander Maurocordato into
Etoha. This worthy Grecian, named Epistate, of Western
Greece, now ends himself once more at the head of the effigies of
that courtesy. Every Agog resumes, and is about to resume, a
new face.

had received news from Caeenes, that a conspiracy had broken out
in the environs of Valencia d'Alcattara, in which about WO per-
sons were concerned, at the head of whom was a lawyer. It seems
to have been his intention to make himself master of the town, but
the garrison fired upon him, and his project failed. The Governor,
Morales, went in pursuit of him, and is said to have surrounded him.

SURREY SESSIONS, TII U RID Ar, MA se it 4.

Lydia Clarke was charged with having feloniously stolen a pair
of sheets, and other articles, value one pound twelve shillings.
After some preliminary evidence bad been examined, a Jewess
girl was put into the witness-box to prove the fact by direct testi-
mony. Having been sworn on the Old Testiment, she stared her
age to be thirteen years. On examinatioa of her belief of the na-
ture and consequences of an oath, she said she cas bound to tell
the truth; it was wicked to tell • falsehood ; but she was utterly at
a hiss as to what would become of her, in this or any other world,
if she told an untruth. She had gone to school and read the Bible,
but she seemed to have no recollection of its contents, as far as re-
girded future punishment. The Chairman paused, repeated his
I questions, pressed them in different shares, but could elicit no-'
thing further explanatory of the witness's ideas of a future state of
rewards and punishments. He intimated to the Jury that the case
could not proceed ; some of the Jury suggested the idea of send-
ing foe an adult Israelite, and ascertaining his idea of the conse-
quences of a false oath ; it was possible that Jews might not, in
their belief of future punishment, go as far as Christians.
The CHAIRMAN did not appear to approve the wisdom of the
last conjecture. The girl's testimony was most material to esta-
blish the case against the prisoner. He must of course atop the
trial ; the Jury would, therefore, acquit the prisoner.
Verdict—Not Guilty.
' The prosecutor, • Jew, addressed the Court ; he had lost his
property and his time; he could prove the theft; his daughter saw
it. If the Court would only let him retire for a few minutes with
the little girl, he would teach her what to think of the consequence
of an oath ; he had been bound over to prosecute ; it was a most
hard thing if he could neither get back his property, nor be allowed
to prosecute the thief.
The Cover would not listen to the proposal, and said they
could not relieve him : he might attribute his disappointment to
his neglect of his daughter's religious education.

111, MAJESTY T. TILE TOLL-COLLECTORS COT KENSISTC-
Tow TREST.—Yesterday one of the Collectors of the Tolls at
the Remington-gate was summonsed, at the instance of his
Majesty's state-coachman, for stopping the carriage and unlaw-
fully demanding and taking the sum of fire-pence for tht passage
of a carriage and pair of ►oases through the liensington Gate on
Wednesday, on its return empty front Windsor, for the purpose
of being repaired.
The defence set up was, that the exemption had not been
claimed ; but it appeared that the complainant had said—" This
is his Majesty's carriage and horses."—That was held sufficient.
The Magistrate added, that it was never meant that his 3lajes-
ty's domestics, while on Royal duty, should pay toll.
The defendant undertook that no toll should in future be de-
manded ; and as the penalty was not rated for, he paid the coats.

BERKS.—At Reading Assizes, on Tuesday, Daniel
Gri nashire was indicted fur the murder of his son, William Grim- 1
shire, an intent of the ace of six minths. The indictment charged i
him with having, on the 3d of January last, feloniously, wilfully,
and of malice aforethought, poured a large quantity of boiling
and scalding water into the mouth, and over the neck, breast, and
arms of the deceased, who thereby became sore, sick, and distem-
pered, and languished till the IGth of January, when he died of the
sickness and distemper occasioned by the act of his father. The
prisoner, a young man of decent appearance, in the condition of a
labourer, pleaded " Not Iluilty."--Several witnesses were called to
prove the case; and from the evidence it appeared, that the pri-
soner was left alone in a room with the child in a cradle, during
which time the infant riled bitterly, and on being examined, it
was found to be dreadfully scalded.—The prisoner being called
on for his d.fence, said that he took a basin to the kettle, and
filled it. As he went across the room, lie stumbled against the
cradle, and the accident happened. Ile loved the child as his own
life, and declared himself "as innocent as the child unborn."—
Mr. liaron 6 Alla o w summed up the evidence with great minute-
ness. Ile strongly urged the improbability of the commission of
so dreadful a crime, for which no motive wcs suggested, and by
such means, and admonished the jury not to convict the prisoner
unless they were satisfied beyond all doubt of his guilt. The jury,
after deliberating for a short time, returned a verdict of Guilty.
Mr. Baron Garrow proceeded to pass on the prisoner the dreadful
sentebce, that he should be executed on Thursday, and his body
ianatomised ; and held out no hope of mercy. The prisoner ma-
nifested very little emotion during the trial, on the delivery of the
verdict, or when he was taken from the bar.

victuallers, the business of the Mansion-house was transferred to
Sir C. Flower, the Sitting Magistrate, at this Justice-room.
ATTEMrTED SUICIDE.—Wm. Wylie, a native of the High.
lands of Scotland, was brought up in the custody of a beadle, un-
der the following circumstances:—
The officer stated. that he was sent for to the Queen's Head, in
St. Martin's-le-Grand. on Wednesday. in consequence of the persona
in the house being thrown into a state of great alarm by the pri-
soner drawing a clasp-knife, and endeavouring to use it violently
on his person in their pretence.
It was with great difficulty the persons in the house prevented
him from committing suicide; and it was not until the beadle ar-
rived that the knife was wrenched from him.
The prisoner, on being asked what he had to say, stated that be
had neither money nor friends, and that distress had driven him to
desperation. He added, that he had lived in service in London,
and that the last place he was in was at Mr. Williams's, Pancras-
lane, Cheapside.
The sitting Magistrate ordered the officer to take the prisoner to
that gentleman, and know it his
.statement was correct as to his
having lived with him, end if be would be inclined to employ him

had used when he Inflicted the wound which had so nearly proved

The l.oitu MATOII said, it was a great question in his mind,
whether he Ought nor to commit the prisoner to Norgate, for ma.
liciously stabbing with intent to murder his wife. It was certainly
one of the most atrocious and wicked assaults he had ever had come
before him ; and although he, in listening to the arguments of his

of the Moscow Arms, aloacow-place ; and another person un-
known. The two horses belonging to Messrs. Watts and Gibbon
were stolen from a field at Westbourne Green, on the night of the
19th of :sopternber last; and some days afterwards Mr. Bevan, a
11 hew-dealer, saw the prisoner riding Mr. Watts's hose at Alping-
don Fair. Not being aware that it had been stolen, hovers:, he
did not ea, anything to the man, but mentioned the circumstance
to Mr. 11 acts when he returned. Search was then made after the
prisoner, but without success, until Friday morning, when he
made his appearance at Kensington with a fire colt. which he was
diming publicly for side, at less than half its valve. This was
communicated to Hall the constable, and he was taken into custody.
Mr. Butler (chief clerk to Mr. Banner), attended on his behalf,
and advised hits to say nothing in the present stage of the bust-

examination on Friday neat, in order that 11r. Bevan and other
witnesses might attend.

vice of the prosecutor, and the greatest confidence was reposed in him
until lately, when the prosecutor discovered the system the prisoner
was. carrying on. There wzre severe' distinct charges of fraud
against him, but Mr. Pitman confined himself to two, in support
of which he adduced evidence sufficient to warrant the commitment
of the prisoner.
Three notorious ahem-ter', named Chorka Jews, Alfred God-
win, and Gs urge noises, were charged with picking the pocket of
a gentleman (who did not appear), or. Friday night, near St. Clot
meat's Church. Davis end Reed, the officers, watched the pri-
soners for sonic time until they made the attempt, but the ger.de-
man declined proceeding against them.
Mr. HALLS said, he should take care that they should not have
an opportunity of following their calling for some time ; and unless
they could give a better, account titan the one they now attempted,
be should coart:t them, which was Accordingly dune.

On the morning of Wednesday last, the body of a mid-

floating in the Canal at Dublin-bridge. An Inquest was
held on the body in the course of the day by S. Rcid, Esq.

fortunate deceased had been drinking in ditr.reut
houses on the previous evening, in company with two other
men, named Cadley and Kelly, and that these men were
seen with him at an early hour in the morning. '(he evi-
dence being altogether of an unsatisfactory nature, the in-
quest was first adjourned till Saturday, acd again until
Sunday, when, after the examination of several witnesses.
including the two individuals who were with the deceased
on the night in question, the Jury returned the following
verdict :—" IVe tied that the deceased, John Pat:loon,
came by his death by being drowned in the canal, on the
morning of Wednesday the 49th of September ult., and
that Laurence Cadky and Charles Kelly were both in his
company, and will not give auy satisfactory evidence to the

COTTON MANPIFACTURERS.

The Table of the cotton manufactures exported during
the UV years of the late war, from 1793 to 1815, amounted
to 20$ millions sterling, at the official 'value. The raw ma-
terial, at four millions per annum, amounts to 38 millions
sterling. The net annual receipts from foreign countries
for profits and wages was therefore 190 millions, or about
a 4 millions per annum. But the whole value of all the
British manufactures exported during that periml was 518
millions, which, after deducting for the raw material 118
iniilions, will leave 40u millions added to the taxable capi-
tal of the nation, at the rate of more than 1$ millions per
annum, by amount received for the wages and profits of the
British productive labour. In the eight years since the
return of peace, from 1815 to 1822, the cotton manufac-
tures exported arc upwards of 1774 millions, at their
offieial value; and deducting 8 millions per annum for the
raw material, kites 1374 millions, being abaut 171 mil-
lions per annum, which being added to the export of the
92 rairs preeediag, *ill make upwards of 2:44 millions
contributed since the commencement of the late war, by
cotton manufactures alone, to the taxable capital of the
nailer,. But in the last eight years the whole amount of
exported British manufactures and produce is 332
lious ; and deducting the raw materials at the increased
rate of 74 millions pit annum, will leave MI millions, be-
ing about 31 millions per annum ; which being added to
the produce of profit and wages for :18 years of the war, as
before mentioned (400 millions), will make Gril millions
recAved hi the last 30 years, since 1793, being upwards of
'2l millions per annum for wages and profits produced by
British industry, and received from other nations. During
the war, the sum added to the national debt by loans was
Sof/ millions, which it thus appears was cxc.,t di el upwards of
100 millions by the amount received from foreign countries
for the ingenuity of the English artisan, and industry of
the English labourer.
