FRENCH PAPERS.

( From the Etoik of Thur. 'day, Sept. 11)
CORFU, :lUa. 16 —We learn mat the occupation of Tripo-
bus by the Greeks has been but momentary. That town hav-
ing been nearly destroyed by the Greeks themselves, when they
abandoned it, affords no security to those who occupy it. •
It seems that Prince Ypsilanti has contented himself with
taking possession of every thing that could he of use to his
troops, after putting to the sword the Turks who were there, to
the number of two thousand, about two hundred of whom were
sick and wounded.
At Zante sixty-four Greek armed vessels, and• some smaller.
ones, supposed tO be fire-ships, were seen to pass by in a few•
days, steering towards the Gulf, which perfectly agrees with
the accounts received from Hydra, that the fleet destined' tere.
lieve Missolonghi, and to destroy the Turkish fleet, was to be
composed of seventy-two well-armed vessels and fifteen -fire-
ships, with two transports laden with piovisions and ammuni-
tion, all under the command of %liauli, with Sachtury as se-
cond in command.

All the inhabitants of Zante, even the poorer t, procured' te-
lescopes to watch the motions of their fleets; and paised, in do-
ing this, all the day and part of the night. On the 6th-the C t*.
toman fleet was seen to repass the channel, to the number of
sail, and bearing the Admiral's flag, steering to the South-un-
der a poress'of sail.
A division of thirteen vessels approached it within half a
cannon shot, without the Turks venturing to attack it. At
length a Greek brig of this division approached a Turkt‘h irk
gate; and firetta broadside at her; but the Turks di I not'dare

near Tripol,zza, had retreated to Acladocambo; a larke village'
on the road to Napoli di Romania; where he had' succeeded'
in collecting'a new corps of 16,000 men ; that he had 'returifitt
to attack the Paella, and had completely defeated him; killing'
great numbers of his troops, but that he• had ‘entirely given-up

DUTCH PAPERS.-SEPT. 14.

MARSEILLES, AUG. 30.

After a long interruption we have again receiv-
ed more accounts from Greece, which, indeed, do
not confirm the reports given in the Paris Jour-
nals, of the Greeks having recovered Tripolizza,
and surrounded Ibrahim Pacha, but still it ap-
pears from them, that notwithstanding various ad-
vantages which the Egyptian General has obtain-
ed in the Morea, he does not possess a sufficient
force to reduce the whole Peloponnesus again
under the Turkish Power, unless he 'shortly _re-
ceives powerful reinforcements.--According to
these accounts Ibrahim Pacha had remained
for a time on the defensive, till he was joined by
the corps that landed at Navarin. Several uncon-
nected, not very serious, attacks of the Greeks
had been repulsed by him. After the arrival of
the expected reinforcements, he resolved to ad-
vance to meet the Turkish corps coming from the
north of Greece to the Morea. The assistance
of this corps had been already promised .him.; it
NS- as a part of the plan of the campaign, and both
the Seraskier Redschid Pacha, and the Captain
Pacha, had strict orders to accelerate, as much
as possible. the advance of that corps into the
Peloponnesus. Ibrahim Pacha, therefore, acted
in strict conformity with the spirit of the
plan of operations, in endeavouring to operate in.
the direction of the- Gulf of I,epatito, and
to reach its shores.: BO( he did not succeed in
-this tiny 'More• than the North Army had succeeds
'ed in entering the Peleponnesus. The Greek
Government had considerably reinforced Goura,
in the vicinity of Athens, who was thus enabled
to defend the entrances to the isthmus of Corinth,
and at the same time so to engage the division of
Redschid. Paella's • army, which had advanced
to Salona, that it was unable to cross the gulf at
Lepanto or Galixidi, as it seemed to intend.—
Nevertheless Ibrahim advanced as far as Phonia
and Calavrita ; but as he heard ,nothing of the
arrival of the Turkish army from the North, he
returned to the interior of the Morea, to re-es-
tahlish his communications with Navarin.—
There was a report of a now engagement near
Telphonsa, which was said to have been un-
favourable to Ibrahim, but nothing certain was
known respecting it. A great advantage for the
Greeks is the raising of the blockade of Misso-
longhi by the appearance of a Greek squadron at
Cape Papas, and the retreat of the Captain
Pacha, who has returned to Juda to avoid any
engagement with
,the - Greeks. Missolonghi has
been saved by the courage of its brave garrison.
The Roman Nolhie del GiOrllo contains the
foi!owing from Zante, Aug. 18 :
" According to accounts just received Ypsi-
lanti's corps has re-occuped Tripolizza and "Na-
yarit' : the latter place is said to have been vo-
luntarily abandoned, on the approach of the
Greeks, by the Turkish garrison, which retired
Modon. 'lbrahim Pacha is said to be sur-
rounded at Tripotamia, the ancient Psophis, in
the centre of the Peloponnesus. The Turkish
.:11,,et has lost some ships in an engagement with the
Greeks, near Missolonghi."
'FRANKFORT, SEPT. 9.—The latest accounts
-from Alexandria are of the 10th Juin they say
-that the Viceroy had not returned to Alexandria
where he had been long expected, that he had
-quarrelled with the French officers who had under-
-taken to organize his troops, and that the -plague
still raged at Alexandria.—[The Viceroy is now
`having two frigates built for him at Marseilles,
_and has hitherto amply supplied his agents with

-All the Captains of ships that arrive at Trieste

FISHING EXTSLAOILDINAItY ON THE THAMES.—
The River above bridge presented on Thursday a curious scene
of motley groups engaged in fish-taking, by divers expedients
net contemplated by the statute for that purpose made and
• provided. The late heavy rains caused the river to be much
swollen, in some parts overflowing its banks, and threatening
the adjacent level with a visit similar to that experienced two
or three years back, so much to the discomfiture of the live
. and dead stock of every description upon -the neighbouring
premises. At the turn of the tide the heavy,swell, acting in
- conjunction, as is supposed, with the thunder-storm of the
preceding day, produced a strange effect upon.the.fish. They
rose in shoals to the surface of the water, and, .although they
did not go the length which -fowls and turkies are represented
to do in some countries, erbibiting themselves -reedy cooked.,
-crying " come eat me," they allowed themselves-to be taken in
;great numbers by anyinind.that deemed them worth the trou-
.ble of capture. In this manner many pails-full were caught.;
.and so attractive was.the sport, that every hamlet -and mann-
• factory on the banks of the aiver .above Lambeth, 4V34 de-
serted, and every boat manned for the purpose. Business
was entirely at a stand ; the turn out was general, and the
most unsportsmanlike, and. in sonic instances, diverting
schemes were practised to profit by the favourable opportu-
nity. Pails, sieves, soup ladles, and other descriptions of
domestic implements. were variously employed by the women
and children on the banks. A boat load of men, each armed
with a sieve, was very successful, and made a good haul. In
one part, where the bank was made higher than its natural
elevation by a brick-wall, some men were seen angling with
one of their own number, whom they lowered by the heels to
the great peril of his head.• In the centre of the river, well ap-
pointed cutters, manned by six or eight oars, suspended the
progress of their journey for a season allowing themselves to
be carried down with the stream, actively engaged on both
sides in taking the inviting pray. Flounders and eels formed
the majority of the fish secured by these means. Barbie, dace,
and ether varieties, were, however, similarly affected.

PARIS, TUESDAY MORNlNG.—Considerable sen-
-sation,has been excited here by the suicide of an
English officer (Captain G--,ee), who blew
ont his brains this morning at the Hotel de Cas-
tile, where he had been residing. No satisfactory
tory cause has been assigned for this act, but
ruraour is of course busy. It is said that the
Captain had been a loser at play, but I cannot
trace this to any authentic source.—(Morning
Paper)

OLD BAILEY.—(Trus DAY.)

TRIAL OF SULLIVAN FOR MURDER.

Cornelius Sullivan, aged 33, was indicted upon
the Coroner's Inquisition for the Wilful Murder
of Jane Earl, with whom he cohabited on the '2d
August last.
Mr. ADOLPHUS stated the case for the prosecu-
tion, and called

Mary Miltis, who stated that the prisoner at the has lived in
White Horse-court, nano-lin-street, Clerkenwell. On the
evening of the 2d Augu►t the witness saw the deceased, and the
prisoner came up and knocked her down and kicked her seve-
ral times on the bed ; on the deceased recovering herself
she went into a chandler's • shop at the corner of the
court ; the prisoner dragged her out by the hair of her
head, again knocked her down, and jumped upon her twice;
j•the deceased had, done nothing to provoke his anger. Witness
Raid,'" Pray, Corn., don't kill her."
Nothing material was elicited in her -cross-examination.
•Charlotte Denis, a single woman, living near Turnmill-street,
.gave the same account as the last witness.

- Cross-examined.—llas known the Prist;ner for above one year,
' and the deceased a much longer -time. The deceased was not
drunk. She did not fall down the steps, neither did the pri-
aoner stumble. The witness bad not drank any thing that day.
Susan WCich, a.wile of a chimney sweeper stated, that she
saw the prisoner run into a chandler's shop and pull the deceased
out by the hair of her head, he then kicked her, enkindled bet
down, by the hair o: her bead, sorne4teps, and then dashed her
within the doors of their residence like a dog. lie shut the
door and broke a chair beating her, he gave .her many
blows, as many as nine; it was a light chair. While
he was beating her she was on the ground quite senseless; she
was in that state when he dragged her down the steps; witness
ran after him and advised ilitn to govern his passion,.but he
threatened to serve her the same. Witness was looking through
the key-hole when he was beating the deceased ; he also at-
tempted to strangle her with a handkerchief.
Stephen Hound, a respectable looking man,.proved that he
kept the chandler's shop, in Turnmill-street, alluded to. About
hall7past eight o'clock, on the evening of the 2d sluguit, the
deceased rushed into the shop in an agitated state, as if anxious
to conceal herself; immediately after the prisoner followed and
pulled her nut; haring a scuffle outside, the witness went out
to protect his window, when he saw the deceased stretched on
the ground, and the prisoner stamping on her body. The pri-
soner then took the deceased up in his arms, and went down
the steps.

Cross-examined by Mr. BARRY.—The deceased .appeared
agitated; when witness saw her the aeecnd time she was in-
sensible.
Robert Smith also saw the deceased kicked and ill-treated by
the prisoner.
.111 r. Cooper, surgeon, of Cow Cross-street, attended the de-
ceased on the 3d August. lie found her in a miserable condi-
tion, she was insensible. He applied a poultice to the head,
as there appeared a compression of the brain ; she lingered until
Thursday. The witness examined the head and found dread-
ful bruises, such as could not be inflicted by the band, but by
falls; there were at least 4 ounces of extravasated blood upon
the left hemisphere of the brain, which was the immediate
cause of her death ; the extravasation was caused by the violence
she received on the head ; the entire region of tile head was
bruised. The witness described the extensive bruises, kc. on
the body.
Cross-examined.—The prisoner agreed to pay for my attend-
ance, and seemed anxious that every thing should be done for
the deceased, and he expressed extreme sorrow on hearingshe
could not survive.

This was the case for the prosecution. The prisoner in his
defence said, he would leave it to his Counsel.

Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE summed up the evidence, and
explained the law regarding the distinction as defined by, the
highest authorities in cases of murder and manslaughter.
The Jury, after a short consultation, found him Guilty of
illunslaughter.

The ItlcoltDE IL immediately sentenced him to tranvotaliDE
fur life.

[PROCEEDINGS OF YESTERDAY.]

TRIAL FOR MURDER.

I The following is the conclusion of the Trial of Patrick
Welch and Ellen Lyons, for the wilful murder of 31ary Welch
(wife of the prisoner Patrick), in the parish of kit. Giles, on
the 26th of. June last, by striking her on the head with a
hatchet. There was another count, in which the prisoners
were charged with causing the death of deceased by .throwing
her down a flight of stairs.]
Antoinette rinario--I am, the niece of Mr. Stewart, who keeps
the Ship .wine.vatths, in Little .Turnstile. .I went to see the
deceased. the day before her death. She.was very ill, and told
me she was very poorly.; she did not say she had fallen down
stairs. I always took her to be prisoner's (Welch's) sister. Be
told me so. On the Thursday evening I asked him whether
the woman up stairs was his wite or his' sister ? he said his sis-
ter, that his wife was in Ireland. When I was upstairs I saw
no blood in the room.

Anne Waldie-,1 am a servant to Mr. Thomas. I remember
the Monday before deceased's death. I saw the prisoner
Welch. .11e said he was going to Mr. Thomas to ask.leave.to
go home for the day, as his sister (the deceased) was very ill;
that she was taken. very ill after breakfzist, with one of her fits
—that in one of her fits she had scratched her face, and bit
herself. .On the next morning, lie said to me that he had
had the parish doctor to her ; but he said it was too late—that
she was now dying, and it could be of. no, use. On the .Fri-
day, before.l2 o'clock, he came to me and asked me to give him
a little flour to stop the bleeding of the scratches. lie had. told
me before, that one of the scratches was on her cheek, and the
other on the temple.. I gave bins a small quantity, about a
spoonful, and lie said that would be enough. On any of those
occasions he never mentioned her having. received any wound in
the hack of. the head.

John Williams.—l am a painter and glazier, in the employ
of Mr. Thomas. Prisoner often spoke to me of his wife. At
one time he told me she was at Reading, at another, he said she
was gone to Ireland. The two women who lived with him, I
understood from him, to be his sister and cousin. On Friday,
the Ist of July, he came to me where I was at work at South-
ampton-row. He appeared very agitated. I asked him a ques-
tion. He said, " Oh, •say nothing to me, I am maddened,
maddened, distracted, and mad." I asked him what was the
matter, and lie said, " She's gone." I said, " What your
-sister ? Ile said, " Yes, it was his sister ;" but seemed in a
most agitated state. I asked him whether he had got a coffin
for her. He replied, "My master is very good to me, and he
will see to that." He said he was frightened at the manner
of her death, that she had sprung up, in the bed and looked at
_him with such a look, that hecouldynot bear to think of it. lie
afterwards said that he would have her screwed down in her
coffin as soon as possible, and buried on the Sunday, for, pour
creature, she would not keep, and would not be fit to be seen
by any body. On that morning prisoner wore a •clean grey
coat, .which I had never seen before. This, as near as I recol-
lect, was about nine or ten o'clock in the .morning. I have no
doubt it was before 11 o'clock.

Cross examined.—Prisoner seemed very much agitated. He
appeared to feel a great deal, and had been crying.
:Ur. Thomas.-1 am a master-builder. Prisoner
lived in my employ, as carpenter's labourer. When prisoner
first came into my employ, in July, 1824, lie then told me
that his wife was living wth him. In3lay after he told me,
that in consequence of an accident that had happened to two
of .his children, one of whom had been scalded to death, his
wife was subject to fits, and that he wished to send her to Ire-
'land, and I advanced him some money for that purpose. He
told me afterwards that she had gone. I gave hint leave to live
in a house of-mine that 'was under repair, in order to save him
,the expence of rent ; for up to this time he was extremely well
conducted. lie went to live there with a woman who he told
me was his sister (but who I now know was his wife), and an-
other young woman, his cousin. He always spoke of this
woman as his sister until the day he was taken into custody,
when he confessed that she was his wife. Witness then went
on to describe the account given by the prisoner as to the acci-
dent that had happened to his wife (sister, as he called her,)
which was the same in subs,anee as that detailed by the other
witnesses. lie added, that on Friday, prisoner came to • him,
and said, that his sister (wife) was gone at last, and " that she
would have gone half an hour sooner, but that she waited to
see him before she went." These were his words. Witness
added, on the next tiny, he came and asked me what be should
do with the bedstead I had got for him. I told hint to lie on it,
to be sure, as usual. He said he would nut sleep on it, or in
that room, for 501. •
Cross-examined.—This answer did not surprise me, as 1
knew the prisoner to be a timid man.
Thomas Chandler.—l am a baker in Little Turnstile, Hol-
born. The woman at the bar came to my shop on Saturday,
the ‘2d July, and asked for a little flour to put to a woman's
head that was cut, to stop the bleeding. I did not give it, but
told her to go to the baker she dealt with, and that he would
give it to her. I am certain it was Saturday. it was the Sa-
turday before the inquest.
Thus. Kennedy.—l am landlord of the Black Horse public-
house, St. Giles's, and brother to Mrs. Donovan (the first wit-
ness.) In consequence of what I heard, I went to see the body
of deceased on die day on which her husband was going to have
her buried. I,put thelid of the coffin on one side, and put my
hand to the back of the head, and it weir into a large cut, and
my band was quite bloody. I then said to .the husband that

there must be something wrong, and that I would forbid the
.funeral. The husband said that it was no affair of mine—that
his wife had slipped down the bottom of the stairs and had hurt
herself'. The next day I examined the stairs most carefully,
and saw no trace of blood on any of then]. I examined the
sacking under the bed, and found it stained with blood, and
flour over it. There was a great deal of blood on the bolster
and on the cap. There was flour over the blood on the bed,
but none on that on the bolster. SomC of the clothes of the de-
ceased were found stained with blood. There was also blood
on the floor.

The beadle Who examined the place along with last witness,
and who took the prisoner Welch into custody, corroborated his
statement as to there being no blood on the stairs, but there
being strong marks of blood on the floor and bed. He added,
that it appeared to him that the floor had been washed, and flour
laid on it. Between the sacking and bolster a jacket was found
stained with blood, and two woman's caps covered with blood.
In a cupboard covered with shavings I found an old cloth,
which appeared to have been,used as an apron ; it was stained
with blood. In the same place, and under the shtsvings, I
found an iron hammer, and in. the cellar below a hatchet.—
There was no mark of blood en either. The sacking, the
jacket, and caps were now produced. They were allmarked
with blood.

Mr. Blair, a surgeon, residing in King-street, Bloomsbury,
stated, that he never attended the wife of the prisoner in
Turnstile. - (Prisoner had stated that he had Mr. Blair to at-
tend her.) _ _ _

Mr. Andrew Tweddale.—l am Assistant-surgeon at the St.
Giles's workhouse. On the 3d July I examined the body of
the deceased. There was a wound at the back of the head
about two inches long. I examined it more particularly the
same day, anti opened- it. There was an extensive fracture at
the back of the skull, beginning at the left ear, .and extending
across the head and terminating at the base of the head on•the
opposite side. Thin was in addition to the wound 1 have men-
tioned. The wound was an incised wound as if cut with a
sharp instrument. I put my finger to it and examined it.—
The axe now produced would have inflicted such a wound.
—lt was not a wound that would have been inflicted lay a fall
down three or four stairs. Such a wound, if given with force,
would be likely to have produced such a fracture as I have
described. I found an artery of the brain cut by a part of the
bone of the skull being driven in. There had been an effu-
sion of about four ounces of blood between the skull and the
Aura muter. From the appearance of the wound, I do not
think it could have been inflicted more than 24,hours before
death had ensued. i dissected the head. The injury I have
described was the cause of death. I opened the body, and
found no organic disease. There was some slight disorder in
the bowels, but nothing to have caused death. From the
nature of the incised wound, blood must have immediately
flowed at the time it was received.

By Mr. Baron GRAIIAM.—A fall down a flight of stairs
might have produced a similar wound, if she had fallen on
any thing sharp. A common tile would not have produced such
a cut.

Nothing of importance was elicited by-the cross-examination
of this witness.

Re-examined—From the appearance of the wound,-it was
impossible it could have been inflicted on the. Sunday. A person
having received such an injury on the Sunday ,could not have
sat up and conversed as the witness Pinario had described the
deceased to have done, on the Thursday. The injury of which
the deceased hnd died must have been inflicted after that day.
Another surgeon, .who had examined the ,deeeased along
with the last witness , expressed his .concurrence in the opinion
given by him, except in two points. The first was, bethought
that a person who had received such an injury on the Sunday
Might have sat up and conversed on the Thursday. it
would depend on whether the effusion of blood ,on the
brain was slow or quick. In the second point, he thought
that the incised wound, and the fracture could not have been
inflicted at the same time, or by the same blow. It must
have been by another injury or fall. From the appear-
ance of the incised -wound, it could not have been inflicted on
the Sunday before.: the :fracture might. The .fracture would
have caused death : the incised wound, unless followed by in-
flammation, would not.
The witness Hodge was recalled, and said, that the tiles on
which the prisoner said his wife fell, were common -flat hearth

Elisabeth Butler, one of the searchers who saw the body,
said, that the prisoner Lyons told her that the name of deceased
was Mary Connor, and that she had died of a brain fever.
The witness made her report accordingly. This was the case
for the prosecution.
Welch was now asked what he had to say. Ile, in a very
firth and collected tone, repeated the story about his wife hay.
ins fallen down stairs, and received the hurt in that way. -
The female, prisoner, declared to God that she was wholly in-
nocent of the crime laid to her charge.
Some witnesses were now called, who gave the prisoner
Welch a good character for humanity. •
At four o'clock Mr. Baron Guatrix began to sum up the
evidence, the reading of which occupied his Lordship nearly
two hours. .having gone through the whole, he called the at-
tention of the jury .in particular to the circumstances of 'the
prisoner Welch not having called in any medical assistance to
his wife,• if his story about her fall were true. lie also re-
marked on-the nature of the wounds, which the deceased had
received, and theutter impossibility of her having received them
in a fall on the Sunday before, and having conversed with the
witness Pinatio on the Thursday, without saying a word to
her on the subject. The case was, he must confess, a strong
one against the male prisoner, but he did not mean to say that
it was impossible to believe that the accident mentioned by
the husband might not have caused the wounds. That was
pot isnpossibie, but undoubtedly it was extremely improbable.
The case was not at all the same with respect to the woman.
However .criminal she might be in concealing the cause of
the death, still there was no evidence to show that she was
aiding and assisting in procuring it. The jury would take
the whole of the circumstances into their most serious consi-
deration, and if they hail any reasonable doubt, they would
give the prisoner the benefit of it.
His Lordship concluded his charge about ten minutes to six.
The jury retired for a few minutes; and-at their return, the
prisoners, who had bern removed in the interval, were again
placed at.the bar to hear the verdict. The manner of the male
prisoner was unaltered ; but the appearance of the woman,
who was exhausted and almost senseless, hacl undergone a
fearful change.

The Jury returned a ve,dict of Guilty against Patrick Welch,
and found Ellen Lyons, the female prisoner, Not Guilty. •
The usual. proclamation having been made in Court,
The RECORDER proceeded to pass sentence on Welch in a
manner the most solemn and impressive. Ile animadverted
on the peculiar enormity of the prisoner's offence under the
circumstances of his case—on the reasonable expectation that
his wife might have formed of finding in him who had proved
to be her destroyer, her protection and her support in the hour
of danger—and on the shortness of the period which must
elapse between the passing of this sentence and the ignominious
death by which the law required that he should expiate his
crime. After seriously and earnestly exhorting the prisoner to
employ the remainder of his existence in prayer, the RE-
conDEr pronounced sentence of Death, and ordered him for
execution on Monday next.
The conduct of the prisoner during the trial was perfectly
cool and collected. Indeed, on the part of the man it had the
appearance of an almost indifference to what was going on._
The woman seemed extremely attentive to the proceedings,
though she did not appear to be at all affected by any of the de-
tails respecting the death of her unfortunate relation. In the
early part of the trial, her manner had something in it ap-
proaching to levity.; but as the case proceeded she became more
serious, and towards die conclusion evinced a considerable de-
gree oeanxiety.
While the Jury Were out of Court, the prisoners were allowed
to retire. On their return, the woman was quite changed._
She was obliged to be held up by two men. There was a de-
gree of wildness in her look, and she appeared to be labouring
under that kind of temporary delirium which often succeeds a
fainting fit.

The prisoner Welch returned to Court with his former com-
posure. When the verdict was pronounced, a person in the
dock told the woman that she had been acquitted. She did not
seem to he conscious of the alteration which that fact made in
her condition. She was taken out of court in a man's arms.— •
She is a small and rather pretty woman, and looks much
younger than the age given in the calendar, 26.
W ,looked very earnestly at his fellow-prisoner on hear-
ing the verdict of guilty against him, and a kind-of flush passed
for a moment over his countenance, but it was only for a mo-
ment. lie immediately te,gained his previous composure, which
never left him during the address of the Recorder, or the passing
of the awful sentence. On leaving the court, he said in a mild
but firm tone, " indeed I am innocent." He is a genteel-
looking Young man, apparently not more than, 20, though en-
tered on the calendar as 24 years of age.
The trial, particularly towards the close, appeared to excite
a considerable degree of interest, and the Court was most in-
conveniently crowded during the day.

Btfore the RECOaDER and .a London Jury. )
At half-past si,x o'clock the following case came on to be
tried before the Recorder and a London Jury:--Henry Wil-
liams, Frederick Williams, and Michael Williams. all of,
them men of reniarkably decent appearance, were indicted
for stealing, in the dwelling-house of .John Howell, a chest
of tea, value 201. The first of the prisoners was described as,
a labourer ; the second, a watchmaker;, and the third,,: shoe-
maker.—Mr. ALLEY stated the case for the prosecution.—
The case possessed no sort of interest as to the facts charged
against the prisoners ; but the principal witness for the pro-,
sccution was a Mrs. LKitley, a female servant out of place,

At a late hour this morning the _Mode of
yeqerday arrived here express from 'Paris.
It contains some intelligence from Spain
and Greece, but neither of much moment.—
The King of SPAIN was still at St.lldefonso. An
address bad been presented to him by six mili-
tary officers in Madrid, expressive of their
horror of the late conspiracies, and their de-
votion to the King and his prerogatives. It
concludes by a tender of their service in any
enterprise his MAJESTY may please to assign
'thorn. The Captain General of Arragon had
issued a Proclamation to the Arragonese, an-
nouncing the arrest and execution of I3EssrEazs,
' and calling upon them to persevere in their
praiseworthy loyalty, and to take warning from
the fate of IlusszEttEs.

The news from Greece is of a lamentable de-
scription, and much opposed to the tenor of the
intelligence which has lately reached us through
the medium of these Journals as to events there.
We subjoin a short extract of letter represented
as perfectly authentic, given in the Etoile, dated
Oursac, 18th August, and referring in angry
terms to the alleged piracies of the Greek marine,
and its di-organised state, and the disunion of
the Greeks in general :

" General complaints are made against the piracies com-
mitted by the Grecian corsairs, and no satisfaction or re-
stitution can be obtained from their Government. The
world is in a great illusion upon this subject. The Members
which compose this Government exist but from day to
day, and it has fallen into the most complete impotency.
Their authority is gone, and their respectability still more
so, and it is morally and physically impossible in the
present situation of Greece to form a combination of the smallest
power. Theban is represented as the cause of this mischief,
for it is pillaged and devoured on its way ; and has thus demo-
ralised the Greeks, and caused such bitter; hatred amongst them
that if Ibrahim ..was compelled to evacuate the Mores, civil war
would rage with more fury than ever."

The EiGiie also contains an article, alleging
the existence of Jesuits in Ireland, in answer to a
counter allegation of the Dr(Teau Blanc.

The French Papers of Wednesday are filled
with news from Greece, and refer to advantages
saidgained by the Grecian forces
o
obeeflnuaautm in the Morea. These
stvaetret:the;:e have
statements are, however, slightly at variance
with one another, and also with the information
brought us by the Dutch mail. All accounts,
ho-wever, agree in representing the armies under
COLOCOTLIONI and YPSILANTI as in a very effi-
cient state. Extracts from both files of Papers
will be found elsewhere.
The Quolidienne revives the rumour that the
Paris bankers have negociated a loan with the
Spanish KING, of 20 millions sterling, and says in
addition, that Monsieur TASSIX has left Paris for
Madrid, with the final conditions ou which the

Parisian Bankers will make the advance'
