e ,new Constitution of Servia seems

• l: town. Congress assembles daily, in
order to consoil upon the measures and provisions
which the execution of the I)ekV Constitution may
require. Geireral Colts! •GEOROES attends these
Sittings, and-'has a vote in them. The best under-
standing and reciprocal esteem is kept up between
the Geneialand the Russian Minister M. Ds Ro-
Oorettatmit. The part which Rtissia is taking in the.
concerns of Servia, dues not, however, appear to
be hostile to the faithful execution of the Armistice
with the Turks, It is even asserted, that the Con-
gress sent, on the 21st of No.yeinber, a Courier to
the Ariny of Bosnia, with orders to retreat instantly
within their own frontier, and raze all the batte-
rids and ramparts which had been thrown up ;- for
thouth the Turks broke the Armistice, it was de-
sioned only to punish their breach of- faith by an
*
lacursion, but on no aceotintby any serious
operations contrary to the Armisttce of;
Ruclaniek. Five'days afterwards, -on the 26th,
the Commandant of Belgrade, Mr.a.ncs; Mru.asm-

FRANKFORT, DEC. 21 ..The Russian Prisonersof War, who, through the generosity of the 'Ent-
peror NAPOLEON, are bow returning front France to
their native country, have in part passed through oar
city. It has been ebserved, that their residence in
France has had a beneficial ell e& upon the condu&
of the Officers towards those who are placed under
their authority,' which is much less severe than it
formerly was. The welf-kmiwn Russian joviality
has been thus increased, while military distipline
does not seem to have suffered from this more hu-
mane treatment. 'We hear the soldiers incessantly
singing their national songs to the tambour.' The
inhabitants, in whose houses they have been quar-
tered, speak favourably of their con:lutt, They arc
to 'march to the Russian frontier, not in the usual
Military route through Thuringen, but; more to the

A very severe battle was fought, near Clifton, on
Monday, bet %wen two eMiert • bruisers; whose fame
Ills not yet attra6ed the notice of the town ama-
teurs. The names, of the parties Were Gore and'
Maddox, and the battle was for a purse of lb
guineas. In science itwas nearly equal to that which:
was displayed by young Belcher and Dutch .Sam,,
,and the conflict was as sanguinary as the late con-
ilia, between Gregson and -Gulley. , After an hour's
real fighting, Gore was carried otf as the vielor,
