THE SUN.

SOLSN QUIS DIOEUL F4LSUM AUDLAT

LONDON,
TUESDAY, AUGUST 17,.1821.

We have given, under the usual head, extracts
from the Paris Papers of Saturday and the Maile
of Sunday. The only article of their contents
which possesses any interest, is that from Con-
stantinople, by way of Odessa, alleging that the
fleet of the CAPTAIN VACUA was attacked by a
Hydriot and Spezziot squadron of 25 sail, imme-
diately after the landing of the Turkish troops
upon the island of Ipsara, and that the result of
the naval conflict which ensued, was almost the
entire destruction of the Turkish fleet. If this
important news should be confirmed, we shall
say that the immolated Ipsariots have been
nobly avenged, and that the injury inflicted
on the cause of Greece by their ruin, has been
ten times redeemed by the signal and decisive
blow which has annihilated the Ottoman Power
at sea. There is nothing in the previous accounts
of the fall of Ipsara that necessarily discredits
the alleged destruction of. the CAPTAIN PACIIA'S
fleet. None of the details of the, capture of the
island have hitherto come down to a later date
than the reduction of the forts and the destruc-
tion of the town by fire'. The French brig of
war which witnessed the conflict on the
land, sailed for Smyrna with the intelligence
of its calamitous result, whilst the Greek
flag was still flying on the last fort or mo-
nastery into which the remnant of the brave
but ill-fated Ipsariots had thrown themselves.
It is therefore probable enough that the Greek
squadron may have fallen upon the enemy's
naval armament in the course of the day,
and during the confusion and relaxation of
discipline which always pervade a Turkish
force, after it has been flushed by a triumph.
Goo grant that it may be confirmed that
the calamitous day of the fall of Ipsara
was gloriously terminated by an event which
overwhelmed the crescent, with the avenging
waves of Christian heroism, and for ever gave to
the Cross of Greece the ascendancy on the ocean.
We'dare not rely on the authenticity of the Intel-
, ligence which has as yet reached us.
accounts will be looked for, by the friends of

THE- THEATRE.

tIAYMARKET.—As the indisposition of Miss
PATON unhappily continues, Miss Ilimmes, who
was her substitute for Polly. in The Beggar's
Opera, on Saturday last, resumed' that character
yesterday evening. Considering that, as is as»
serted in a respectable Morning Paper, this was
actually her second appearance on any stage, she
would be entitled to indulgence, even with less
merit than she really displays. It is only by
practice that what is technically styled the busi-
ness of the stage can be acquired. She sings
with taste, and appears to act with feeling. She
was, as before, encored in " But he so teazed
me," and, last night, in 46 Cease your funning,”
and altogether acquitted herself to the satisfac-
tion of a very numerous audience. We cannot
help again protesting against the ludicrous ab-
surdity of allotting to Madame VESTRIS the com-
mand of a band of desperadoes, ripe for robbery
and murder. She might alternately be tried in
Poi/3, and a snale representative be found for
Machcath. FARaes and WILLIAMS, in Peachuni
and Locket, were diverting without extravagance,
and M rs. C. J oNts was excellent in Lucy. W. NV EsT
sacrifices too much to the taste of the galleries.

He possesses merit tktt deserves public encou-
ragetnent, but his humour is rather too,broad fur
a regular Theatre.

MOST ALARMING FIRE.

This`. morning, about two o'clock, a iitit! br
the. most disastrous nature broke out iii .Abe
saw-mills of Messis. • Tuitivxtt and Company,
in Gravel-lane, lloundsditch, whOse preriuses
extend' to a neighbouring court backwards,
towards Cutler-street,' in the close' vicinity of ono
of the East India Company's 'warehouses.. 'the
alarm spread throughout the neighbourhood, and
at such an hour, may be easier conceived than ex-
pressed. From the nature of the property where
the fire commenced—the very close buildings--H-
-the hour of the night—and the complete want of
water, the devouring element'gaini.d such ground,
that at one time it was fearer? that the fire wcitil4
find its way to Petticoat-lane,"whtett the destruc-
tion would' have been most dreadful. Coufieed
as the fire was kept, not less than seven or eight
houses were, in the course of two hours, reduced
to ruins. l t was not possible to -ascertain,the
names and numbers of all 'the houses destroyed,
but we saw the Box-tree public-house, f(qA. by
Mr. Swaine, completely burnt down ;and the other
number of dwellings above mentioned in such
state of conflagration, before their filling; thei
several other houses were severely ilatnaged.--1
Cock-and-Hoop-court, adjoining to t'Where. the
fire broke out, had wine of the housis daMaged,
and at one thne the fear was that Aldizate work-
house, situate in that place, would, kayee Aufilexeii
the fato of Messrs. Turner's premislai. It •was
distressing to see the individuals, whoili property
was wholly destroyed, escaping from Ouger, and
those who saved a little of their furnittire, lodged
it in the front of the work-house in Cock-and-.
Hoop-court. Mr. Cope, the City-marshal, Led-
better, and the officers of the city, were at their
posts, and, in addition to their meritorious exer-
tions in preventing thieving, and taking -a,ll doubt-
ful characters into custody, they preserved that
peace and order that, under such circumstances,
are always desirable. It is but
,justice to say
that fire-engines in abundance were pkOmpty
the spot, and that the men, as usual;! exerted
themselves, but the scarcity of water, for a
time, thwarted their exertions. Had there Bern
water sufficient at the commencement 4f this dis.
nitrous fire, the parish-engine, the fist on the
spot, would have quelled it. It is consolatory to
have to state, that, under such circumstances, no
lives have been lost.

EXETER RACES, FIRST DAY, WEDNESDAY.

So great was the sensation excited towards the Races at
Exeter this season, that early in the morning of Wednesday
the city began to assume an animated appearance, by the vari-
ous preparations making to convey company to the spot on
Haldon. Almost every beast of burden, from the humble
donkey to the high mettled steed ; and vehicles of all descrip-
tions, from the lowly cart to the splendid curricle or barouche,
were put in requisition for the occasion. The weather also
being uncommonly fine, the number of persons on the Course
was unprecedentedly large, and a variety of elegant equipages
filled with beauty and fashion, augmented the gaiety of the
scene. The running was of the first order.
The Devonshire Stakes of 25gs each (23 subscribers), to which
501. will be added. Once round the Course.

It was a very severe race. Prosody was then drawn, and Black
and all Black ran against Ambrosine.
London, England, 1824-02-26

POOR LAWS

Mr. NOLAN obtained leave to bring in a Bill to Reform
and Amend the Poor Laws.

Mr. CURTEIS recommended that it should be put to the
option of paupers applying for relief to enter the Army or
Navy.

• WEIGHTS AND MEASURES.
Sir GEORGE CLERK moved for leave to bring, in a Bill
for ascertaining and establishing uniformity in Weights and
Measures.

Mr. D. GILBERT said that the .COmmittee,. following the
directions'of a Royal Commission which had been appointed,
had done their utmost to arrive at some common standard to be
found in nature, which might be introduced with the least in-
convenience to existing habits.—Leave granted.

SCOTCH JURIES.
Mr. KENNEDY obtained leave to bring in a Bill to alter
the mode in which Juries are chosen to serve in the Adminis-
tration of the Criminal Law of Scotland.

ENGLISH AND IRISH INTERCOURSE.
Sir H. PARNELL moved for copies of all orders issued by
the Treasury, in conformity with the Act 4 George IV., for
consolidating the Boards of Customs and Excise in the tyro
countries ; also various other Papers relating to thoir Commer.
cial intercourse..--Ordered.
Mr. HUME complained of the use made occasionally, both
in this and the Upper House, of returns made to chew the rate
of consumption of various articles charged with Excise or Cus-
tom Duties, or both, which returns were by far too partial for
the interests of truth and accuracy. He moved for returns of
all articles charged with Excise Duties for the last ten years,
ending Jan. 5, 1824, distinguishing the amount of the articles
consumed, the different rates of duties levied, together with the
dates and amounts of any increase or decrease. The same
motion with regard to articles charged with customs only,
where the total duty did not rise to 50,0001. in the course of any
one pear.—Ordered.
London, England, 1824-02-26

MARRIED.

On Thursday, the 19th inst., Captain Elrington, of the 3d
Guards, to Charlotte, the only daughter of H. H. Townsend,
Esq., of Upper Seymour-street, and Burbridge, Surrey.
On the 24th inst., at Crayford, Henry Hayne, Esq., his
Majesty's Commissary Judge in Brazil, to Mary, the youngest
daughter of the late Thomas Slack, Esq., of Bloomsbury—
square, and of Braywich Lodge, Berks.
London, England, 1824-02-26

AUSTRIAN LOANS.

Mr. HUME moved for accounts of alrsums paid int* the
Treasury in liquidation of the Austrian Loan, agreeably to the
convention signed at Vienna in 1823. Also of the total debt
now due; together with the annual charge for the same paid out
of the Treasury since 1796.—Ordered.
Mr. HUME then moved for copies of the proposals pre-
sented at the Treasury by the Contractors for the new Aus-
trian Loan.

111 r. HERRIES said, that by the motion it would seem as
if the Hon. Member thought that Government had any thing to
do with the selection of the Contractors. The fact was' that
they came before the Treasury as the representatives of the Au-
strian Government, and Ministers had nothing to do but receive
their proposals.
The SOLICITOR-GENERAL thought that this motion
ought not to pass in the absence of those respectable gentlemen
who were chiefly interested.
Mr. HUME gave notice of the same motion for to-morrow.
On the bringing up of the Austrian Loan Agreement
Report,
Mr. HUME again complained of the terms in which the
agreement with Messrs. Reid, Irving, and Co. had been eon.
eluded, and contended, thot if instead of a close contract, the
30 millions of Austrian stock had been brought into the open
market, instead of paying 5 per cent. the money could have
been got at 3a or 4 per cent.
Mr. BERRIES said, that the Hon. Gentleman's objections
were founded on his persisting in aot choosing to understand
that the agreement as to the mode of payment preceded the
Convention with Austria.

Mr. HUME explained.
The Report was then agreed to, and the Bill ordered to be
brought in. _ _

The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and the
louse adjourned.

The Parish Officers of St. Mary-le-Strand have
changed the name of Swan-yard to New Church-
court, that all recollection of the bad state of
that place, as well as the characters who inha.
bited it, may be obliterated from the public
mind, the principal part of the old houses having
been pulled down, and respectable houses erected
in their room, and the general appearance of the
place completely changed.
During the trials at the Dublin Commission on
Friday, a Gentleman in Court, whilst standing
beside the Sheriff's box, was deprived of a gold
watch, chain, and seals.
London, England, 1824-02-26

DIED.

Esq., of Wimbledon. _ _

On Sunday last, at Blakeney, in the 73d year of his age.

folk, in the former of which he had resided upwards of forty-
three years.

of 110 years, Peter Grant, alias Dubrank, long distinguished
by the appellation of the Culloden Hero, having fought in that
memorable and decisive action. His funeral, which took place
on Saturday last, was attended by upwards of SOO people; who
came from all quarters of the surrounding country to the ex-
ttent of many miles, to pay their last tribute of respect to the
departed hero. In the true Highland style, three pipers were
stationed at the head of the coffin, playing the favourite tune
of the period of Culloden " Wha wad'na fight for Charlie's
right," while the company present were not unmindful of their
Wonted portion of mountain dew, finishing upwards of an anker
of whiskey before proceeding to the place of interment.--

[MORNING POST.]

There is one point of view in which the con-
sequences of the Loans of the Bank of England
to landed proprietors has. not yet been contem-
plated, namely, the influence they may have on
both houses of Parliament, in the event of the
restriction on cash payments being renewed, and
the arrival of a convenient period for repealing
that restriction. Suppose the Bank. to have lent
on mortgage large sums to Peers, to Borough
Proprietors, and to Gentlemen who usually sit
in Parliament ; suppose a war to take place,
with the restriction on cash payments ; then
peace and prosperity, and the question of re-
suming cash payments started—the Bank Di-
rectors may then say, as they did five years ago'
to the Committee on Mr. Peel's Bill, " We
are ready to resume cash payments to-
morrow ; we are anxious, eager, to resume
them, but the general r •n that will fall on in-
dividuals will be tremendous ! Credit and com-
merce, trade and manufactures, will be shaken
to their foundations ; a general bankruptcy must
s u e ! Among other things, you Noblemen and
Members of Parliament must instantly pay oft'
your mortgages to the last farthing." Such a
menace would make many a Member of Parliament
shudder and shrink, and vote for the continu-
ance of the paper system. Let the evidence of
the Bank Directors before the Parliamentary
Committee on Mr. Peel's . Bill, given only
five years ago, be read. What horrors of
bankruptcies and ruin did they predict, if the
paper system were taken from them ? Yet ever
since the country has been gradually increas-
ing in ease, till now it has arrived at a state of

unexampled prosperity. Mr. Baring on Mon.
day night expatiated on the ruin which the re-
sumption of cash payments had occasioned to in•
dividuals. This might be designed to justify
the testimony of the Bank Directors against
Mr. Peel's Bill: But Mr. Baring was not correct.
The chief ruin took place in 1816, and Mr.
Peel's Bill was not meditated till February,
1819, when the Parliamentary Committee of En-
quiry into the question was agreed to. If the
Bank get the Landed Aristocracy into its clutches,
it will controul the Parliament as it did controul
the Ministry. The chief utility of the Bank
consists in commercial discounts. It should be
altogether prohibited from lending money upon
land, a course inconsistent with its modern prin-
ciples and practice, notwithstanding antiquated
laws of permission; a course very incompatible
with its security, and with the public safety in
times of distress. Short dates and quick returns
have been the security of the Bank. Mortgages
have been the ruin of many a private banking
concern, though actually solvent. The Bank
would not venture to lend on mortgage, did it
not speculate on a Restriction Act in the hour of
difficulty ; and for the public security it should
be restrained from so dangerous a course, how-
ever profitable to it a return to the paper system
would prove.

GOLD AT HANKERS.

A gentleman who has carried checks to bankers, tells me,
that they give him Bank of England notes and refuse to give
him gold, in exchange for the check ; and he asks me whether
it be legal for them' to refuse to give gold. In exchange for
checks they may refuse ; but they cannot refuse in exchange
for Bank of England notes. At any rate, you may get the
notes from them, and then go to the flank and get the gold.

FRAGMENT.
• •
-.I went to look
On livitoN'e awful manes —'twas a bight
Which all my spirit to its centre shook—
Grand; glorious, passion-moving, still.—the blight
Of Death was there ; but 'wbo•could bear or brook
Such a Sun, clouded in so dark a night ?
Not I—l gazed upon his fearful sleep,
And tried to weep ; but 0 ! I could not weep !
' Yet; he was pale and ghastly !—nought was left
But that high intellectual forehead, crown'd
'With a few dark grey hairs—his lips bereft
Of all their bitter scorns !—his eyelids bound
In mists, and all his glories chill'd and cleft—
For solitude and gloom were gatherV round—
• ' save that poorTageantry, and vain parade,
Which the dull gloominess far gloomier made.
I turned away—my heart was sick—even now
His shade pursues me in my dreams !—T know
That he-had evil in him—but to bow
To tyrants—but to fawn upon the foe
Of Freedom—but to proffer up a vow,
For aught, but man's most sacred interests—No I
This BYnow never did. Ye slanderers, tell
If ye have served the cause of man ao well !
I watched him when his light was like the gleaming
Of a gay tremulous meteor o'er the sea—
I watched him when his noontide rays were streaming
In all their lustre from Therniopylx.
I could have then adored him—almost deeming
He was a re-awalten'd Deity,
Out of the sacred tombs that Greece has reared
To names—whose shadows now have re.appeared.
'Twas there he died—fit grave !---and there him form
Shall oft' walk forth, when o'er Parnassus' head
There gathers from the clouds some awful storm,
He shall be seen, in wititerob'd garb to tread !
And breathing eloquent sounds to wake and warm
The heroic Greek ; and for the patriot dead
Shall ehaunt a hymn of liberty I—as when
His tire-touch'd harp was heard by mortal men !

MATCH TO TROT IN HARNESS.
Mr. Cottrel, the dealer, undertook yesterday, over a piece of
ground of three miles, near Epping, to trot his LancaShire
horse, Ranter, seven miles end a half in 30 minutes, for a bet
of 200 sovereigns; The horse was driven in a lofty light vehicle,
and performed the 'first three miles in ten seconds under twelve
minutes; the next three miles occupied twelve minutes and
four seconds, when -the horse began to slacken his pace, anti
was seven minutes within ten seconds doing the remaining mile
and a half, losing the match by 44 seconds:

CRICKET MATCH.
Yesterday a grand match at Cricket was played on. Kenning-
ton Common, for a wager of 80 sovereigns, by the members
composing the Albion Club, against an equal nuniber of the
Union. The wickets were pitched at ten. o'clock, and when the
ground hail been marked out, the respective competitors appears 4i
in 'playing costume, and each party seemed confident of success.
The odds, however, at the onset was in favour of 'the latter
Club. The Albion Gentlemen took, the first innings, and
obtained eighty-four runs. The Union then commenced
their undertaking, and to the astonishment of their oppo-
nents, before the whole had been caught or stumped nut,
they obtained upwaids of 190 runs, thus beating their antago-
nists above '2 to 1, and were declared by the markers the suc-
cessful candidates. A number of sporting Gentlemen were on
the ground during the match, and many bets were won and lost
on the occasion.

THE FOUR HUNDRED MILES MATelL—This is most
decidedly the greatest undertaking ever tried by any pedestrian,
and it excites much sportingintcrest, particularly at York races.
in which county Alacgowal, the pedestrian, is well known. It
has been stated, that on Tuesday morning, at nine o'clock, h,
was going, on from four to five miles an hour having travvll-i
nearly 130 miles. He halted a short time anti took refreshment
at Ilawtry, and reached within two miles of , NVetherhy, 191
miles, at ten o'clock on Tuesday night. He proposed doing halt
the distance, to the 200th mile stone, in 54 hours. Ile is luck-
ed at York races to win. His time, as before stated, is live days
and twelve hours.
