SHOWNG ACCIDENT.

On Mr. Alderman Wood's return to the Justice-mom, Guild.
hall, after the Common Hall, George Kendal, the driver (arm the
son of the owner), of the Upper Clapton stage, and Thomas Hiil.
a carman. in the employ of Mr. Smithies, of Wellsateett, Well-
elom-square, were brought betUre him, in consequence of • shuck.
ing accident that had just occurred on Cornhill.
A Mr. Cork, haberdasher, of Walthamstow, said he was on the
box of the Claptoa stage, which was proceeding slowly dos d Com-
hill, at a very gentle trot; and they were passing a town can. on
their right side. when happening to look down, he saw a man in the
act of falling; and before he could call to young Kendal to stop.
the wheel of the cart passed over the man's head. To the hest of
his judgment and belief, no blame whatever was attached to the
coachman. He did not think that either the pole or the horse::
touched the man, but that he probably slipped down in ttj mg to
get out of the war.
Hill, the carman, said lie was at his horse's head, and on the
proper side, and did not even know of the accident till a pentlemri
came up to him, and told him, " he took it very coolly—there was
a man killed."

HesPatio* friends of both the prisoners were in attendance,
and gave each of them an excellent character for carefulness and
sobriety; and as there was nothing to chew wilful blame upon the
part of either of them, Alderman Wood accepted bail for their ap-
pawance Pn IFriday, by which time the verdict of the Coronet's
lnquqc would be known.
The unfortunate sufferer is well known se occasionally sweeping
the crossing opposite the Royal Exchange gate. Ilia head vs:.
,dreadfully aushai, the cart being heavily loaded, and he ciptritt
while being conveyed to St. Bartholomew's hospital.

List night we received the Allgrairine 2. stun;!. of the
voth instant. Its contents are highly important. The
Cart ram l'aciia, it appears, w.. pursued pursued from %beylent.
by the Greek fleet, ishieli, it is said, captured from the
Turks N transports and st,toon torn. The Satinets are
defermitied to follow the heroic example of the Ipsatiuta
in the defence of di, it island; so that even if the Infidels
tetould he succesaful in their attack, their sucass will be
dearly purchatkvi. The capture of another island will be
beyond thehowcr of the tie t TAN. The defeat of 14 I',
TIVCN Paco Ais again mentioned. The Greeks am every
where victorious, while internal ilissentions shake the
bleed-cemented throne of the I /unman l'orte. The waning
Crescent hastens towatils its final eclipse. All liore of
supprrssiiil the insurrection of the Christians is expressly
abandoned. The 'Turkish power, in another year, will
break into pieces. Every enterprising Pacha will establish
Fa own sovereignty, and ally himself with the Greeks or
Posiaus. or with each other, for mutual defence. 'file
empire of Conataminople will, in 311 probability, as before,
be limited for a short time to the city, until some neigh-
bouring fe.vil or advancing enemy seize it as the prize of
i:a audacity. The following are the extracts to which we,

storms

which impeded the progress of our national prosptrity
have utterly causal, and a State of calm content has sue-
emits] to a course of the most gaming agitation. Our
increasing trade, foreign and domestic, fully employs our
increasing population ; and the leadere of faction have
gradually been deserted by every follower. The firmness
with which the KING./ Government withstood the at-
tempts then made to induce them to commit a breads of
faith with the public creditor, can now be best appreciated.
The wretched dupes of the oracles who then predicted
the ruin of our finance.v, and the subversion of our na-
tional greatness, r.ow either shrink, in die bitterness of
self-reproach and conscious sewn, into their befitting ob-
scurity, or turn upon their late ido's and hoot them into
silence. There was a time, and it is well that we should
net entirely forget it, when the app, :trance of Mr. Ii E s v
II uNT was ~Ugh to throw the hugest counties in Eng-
land into discrder. We allude to those " high and palmy"
days of radicalism, when the audacity of this man led hies
to issue, what he insolently lentos' his " proclamation,"
avowedly to counteract and defeat one proceeding front
the Parks. Rsossr• Yesterday we HMI this once for-
midable demagogue,--whose name now ordy meets our eyes
in the anagrammatic puffs for his blacking,—making a
weak and miserable effort to draw :spin upon himself
some share of that nouniet), • which has so much better
adhered to his quondam friend, Mr. IN-Sheriff PARKINS,
by endeavouring to raise a riot among the Livery of
London, when they vore met for the election of a Mayor.
The '" most sweet vdce" of the orator of Spaftelds was
instantly drowned amidst the discordant and deafening
shouts of iiiiliguation which his presence called forth.
Indeed the Livery, who the other slay were likened to
Gods by a diseun:fitell candidate for the llridgemastership,
may be panloned for being more fastidious in their taste than
heretofore. The blacking-man, however, by the interpm
sition of the Loan Mayon, obtained a hearing; hut,
alas! only to suffer a more serious mortification. No one
of the faithless crowd would fur some time identify
with the hapless grumbler, who, to preserve his con-
sistency, amp keep alive the sacred flame of disconteat,
has latterly, in despair of finding an auditory to listen to
his abuse of the Ministry, devoted himself to the refor-
mation of the City. At length a co:npassiunate needle-
realer steppvel forward to the aid of the chagrined loritner,
and the Livery, in a formal manner, scouted both the
mover and his proposition. What is become of the
phalanx of patriots who used to make Guihthall eel o
with their harangues in support of the falling liberty
and iinlepcnelence of their country? Now have we dege-
nerated since that memorable year when the successful
uproar of Iles; T and his friends actually pieVlnteil the
election from proceeding? has, at any rate, the
merit of being staunch to his purpose, though perhaps
he, tun, would long since have retired front the ser-
vice of an ungrateful
_public, if lie had not found
out a means or rendering his notoriety profitable.—
That learned lecturer on the glorious Resolution, Mr. SA.'
NUEL FetesLl., arch the other Whigs, who contrive to
keep the field, are wisely sparing of their polities. Ile N 'l',
whose v!ement is confusion, cannot afford to imitate this
sagncious prudence. With respect to the Loon MAYOR,
whose official career is now so near its close, we believe he
will leave time civic chair with much the same degree of.
popularity that he entered it. If, on the one hand, he leas
not swelled the number cf Isis enemies, by any imlec
manifestation of Isis political bias, he lies certainly, on the
other hand, not gone far towards augmeming the number
of his friends, by his everlasting lequacity. Upon the
whole, the balance will be against him, as the course of
events loss grievously thinned the party to which he be-
longs. The Loan M•voit elect is, we understand, a highly
respectable luau, and an able and iiidependent Magistrate.
We congratulate him Oil Isis election, and the Livery on
their choice.

There is said to be two kinds of nois.s peettliatly termed
gnarling—that of a tanner's dog titular the first emotions
of displeasure, and that of a fialt.ka itle, when the water is
on the point of boiling. We may add, we think, a third—
that of a Whig Journalist when the conduct of Ministers
futnishes no food fur reproach. lint a limn searcher is
rarely at a loss ; anal the Dundee Advertiser has discovered

Now we have really no taste for the policy of despotism,
and should l quite as much alive as any journalist on i•

huger which went to invade the secrecy of private Curtis-
pundence, or the security of private life. But we are not
forward "to fear where no fear is,- or to discover a s-
