CITY, TUESDAY EVENING.

Mails arrived this morning at the Post Office
from France and Holland. By the,former, letters have been_
received from Vienna, dated on the 9th current, which com-_
municate the pleasing intelligence of an express having arrived ,
there, which had left Constantinople on the 18th ult., bringing-.
a full confirmation of the defeat of the Turkish fleet by the
Greeks, in which the Barbarians lest six ships, and the re-;
mainder of their naval force bad been completely dispersed.—
The same advices also affirm that the total destruction of the
Turkish army, which had invaded the Morea, was generally
known in the Turkish capital. Greece is consequently enabled
still to afford protection to her christian population during the 1
ensuing winter, and the ultimate success of her mighty efforts
to be free becomessdaily more probable. Though deserted by
the C/ESAIL of the Muscovites, that instigator of their revolt,
and though -discountenanced by every legitimate Government
in Europe, yet these worthy descendants of the ancient 'Greats
have repelled the Barbarians, and the .cr4eltie4=dri/Qt-....z1 on
them during this campaign by their relentlets oWreSsera, can
only tend to 'render their future exertions-more determined. In ,
their success, no nation has greater canoe to rejoice than the
English, for a civilized empire in the Levaht must add to the
power and prosperity of Great Britain.
From Malta the letters are dated on the 28th September, but
they contain no political news. The stock of grain there at
that time was about 35,000 salms, 22,,000 of which were Egyp-
tian, independent of from 25 to 30,000 salms in the Govern-
ment stores. A salm is equal to a quarter, and this supply is
about the extent required fbr the consumption of 12 months.
The opening of the corn trade in-that island has therefore had
no tendency, as was argued, to endanger the necessary supply
of provisions. The price of good soft Wheat at that period
was from 30s. to 345. a quarter. At Leghorn a cargo of 1,454
bags of Coffee, by the American ship the Two Brothers, in
149 days from Mocha, of nearly the value of 40,0001., had been
sold at 30 dollars cash, being equal to 71. per cwt. net of all
charges. An unrestricted trade, would secure to England a
great proportion of this description of commerce ; hut, at pre-
sent, individual interests stand In the way of great national
advantages.
By the Dutch mail, letters have been received from St.
Petersburgh. dated on the 2d curt. which advise a considerable
advance in the value of Tallow. The last quotation was 108 R.
hut vati.us purchases, amounting to 3,000 casks, had subse-
quently been made, and advanced the price to 120 rubles, which
with the Exchange of that day on London, at 10 1-32 d, makes
it laid down in England about 461. 10s. per ton. During the
season 529 British ships had arrived there up to the last.date,
and 425 had been dispatched. There remained, therefore, 104
ships to bring home the purchases; and no apprehensions
were entertained of getting the whole away before the win-
ter set in. Here a speculative demand has advanced the
value of Tallow to 475., and there is every prospect of a
farther improvement, for the parties engaged in this ex-
traordinary mercantile operation are powerful in the needful, and..
their spirits are fully equal to the occasion. The trade pur-
cases very sparingly for the town consumption ; and as it is ge-
nerally allowed that the home growth has been uncommonly
large, the demand from country is unusually small._ These
high prices at St. Petersburgh will encourage large and early
supplies from the interior of Russia next season. .
This day clean Hemp -onthe.spot- is worth 401., and Rhine
about 441., 12 head Flax 48/., and PTR 521. to 531. per ton,
with a very limited demaind.l tOf Hemp, on the 24th Sept. there
remained at St.. Peterslnggh 400,000 ponds in the warehouses;
Mn
and the total- -exportat- of 'The season up to that period
amounted to 2,000,000 ponds, of which-there were cleared—

131,000 poods, of 9 head 12,000 poods.; and of 12 head 220,000
poods, and of 9 head 55,000 poods were bracked this season,
making the whole supply up to the 24th September amount to—
of 12 head 351,000 poods, and of 9 head 67,000 poods. The ship-
ments made had only amounted to 110,000 poods of 12 head, and
17,000 poods of 9 head Flax, and 41,000 poods of 12 head,
and 25,000 of 9 head, had been purchased, but not then ship-
ped. There therefore remained for sale, on the 24th Septem-
ber, at St. Petersburgh, 200,000 poods of 12 head, and 25,000
pods of 9 head Flax, being an unusually large stock at the
time of the year. ,
Very little business was-done this day in the English Funds,
and there is not the -slightest variation in the value of any de-
scription from the quotations of yesterday. Consols for the
November account opened at 82i g, and this also was. their
closing value.—Notwithstanding a current rumour that Ba-
ron D'Eroles, the leader of the fanatical brigands, had been
obliged to take refuge in France, in consequence of a defeat re.
ceived by him' from General Mina, the New Spanish-Bonds are
very little inquired after,_ and are somewhat lower, and so also
is the premium on Sir. HALDEMAND'S last loan. Both the
Chilian and. Peruvian are also nearly one per cent. lower, and
the bargains done in the Poyais Loan for its coming out are at
83. There is a heavy settlement on the 31st current, of the
time accounts in every kind of Foreign Stock, which sufficiently
accounts for the general depression of this day;

We are concerned to state, on information that
leaves no doubt as to the fact, that the branch of the Commer-
cial Bank at Dunkeld was forcibly entered into on the morning
of Sunday last (13th inst.) and notes to the amount of 1800/.
besides other property in bills, carried off.—(Stirling Journal.)
In recording, in our last, the downfal of the
greatest portion of Ethelbert's Tower of the once magnificent
Monastery of St. Augustine, we expressed a hope that its re-
maining portion (the eastern side) might yet, after having so
long resisted the rude hand of time, defy that of the destroyer,
and still be permitted to stand the monument of its former
grandeur ; for it is evident, that had it been firmly joined to its
connecting flanks, their weight would have involved it in one
cornYaon ntin. It would seem, therefore, that this flank of the
tower has remained nearly in its present state for many years,
rather giving support to, than receiving it from, its lately con..
necting 'angle ; and hence the failure of those efforts which as
yet have been used to.destroy it. After having been frustrated
in the attempt at a partial demolition•by ropes and other futile
means, it is now contemplated to batter it down by a piece of
timber shod with iron, but in the event of the failure,. then to
relinquish all farther prosecution of the object—and it is de-
voutly to be wished that such may be the result..—(Kentish
Gazette, Oct. 22.)
On Friday last, as Mr. J. SIMS, of Steeple
Ashton Common, was driving a boar to its stye, the animal
turned round and attacked him. In attempting to beat it ow
Sims fell, and the boar becoming more cnraged,tore his breeches
and lacerated his thigh in so dreadful a manner, that it is ex-
pected he will be lame the remainder of his life ; and, but for
the cries of his child, which brought some' neighbours to the
spot, he must have been killed.
