EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

A t a late hour this forenoon, we have received
Thy Express the Moniteur of Monday ; hut as it
contains nothing of importance, and we are anxi-
oni to give as much us possible of onr space to
the accounts from Hertford, we omit taking any
extracts from the Moniteur•.

We have received the Moniteur and other
Paris Journals of Sunday, but their contents are
Unimportant. A letter from Mentz states, that
-the Members of the German Confederation hive
resolved to continue the Central Committee ap-
pointed to inquire into revolutionary intrigues
in Germany. The annuity granted to the late
r..oyal Family of Sweden has been purchased by
the present Governtnent for a million and a half
of dollars, in consequence of which all further
payments to the exiles will cease. A letter from
'Constantinople, in the Jou? nal des I)6bats,
states, that an English ship having, without
any authority granted by the English Em-
tassy, passed the Bosphorus in defiance
of the Turkish guard-ships stationed there.
;the RE I*, EFFENDI has arranged with Lord
Srp.ANGFOIID that vigorous measures should
henceforth be adopted against all persons who
do not conform to this formality. From Venice,
under date the 20th December, it is said that the
Ci•reek armament sent to the relief of Misso-
longhi, after defeating and dispersing the Turkish
squadron left before that place, landed a consi-
derable corps of troops from the Morea, and stir-
prised several divisions of Albanians which ex-
pected no visit from an enemy.

Crrr, Twelve o'Clock.—Consols opein this
morning at 874, and went up to at which price
they remain steady. This day being the first
Transfer for Consols., a great deal of business
has been doing. The Bankers sign to-day, and
the public will receive the dividends on Thurs-
,day. The Expresses from Paris bring the .I.,':•ench
tientes at W. 40c., and Spanish Bonds at 252
to 27.

FOREIGN MARKET.—Spanish Bonds opened
this morning at 25-H, went down to '25, and got
up again to ‘25“, at which price they continue
up to this hour.—Austrian Bonds maintain their
price.—Colombian Bonds also remain steady.—
In all other Foreign Securities there is very
little doing.

We this day continue to give a copious and
faithful report of the deeply interesti►►g proceed-
ings at Hertford, on the trial of Thurtell and
Hunt for the murder of Mr. WcArtE. We are of
course restrained from offering a single observa-
tion on the case, until the Jury shall have given
their verdict.

MARSH V. HORN.

The plaintiff', a silk merchant, at Bath, brought this
against the proprietor of a coach, called the " Night Regula-
tor," to recover the value of a parcel, alleged to hare been lost
or stolen out of the said coach, in consequence of the negligence
of the defendant's servants.

It appeared that Mr. Marsh had purchased silk of a manu-
facturer in Spital-fields, which on the 23d of January last was
taken in two parcels to the Cross Keys, Wood-street, for con-
veyance to the plaintiff at Bath. When the coach reached
Newbury, it appeared that one of the parcels had been stolen,
and as the defendant would not be answerable, the present ac-
tion was brought.
The defence was, that the parcel had not been paid for, as
being above the value of 51., and consequently that the defend-
ant, acting upon a notice in his coach-office, was not liable.
The Jury, in answer to questions left for their consideration
by the Judge, said they were of opinion the defendant hal
made himself liable for the loss, and that the risk was not more.
than a common risk.

They were then directed to find a verdict for the plaintiff.
The verdict was accordingly given for the plaintiff. Damages
1341. 18s.—Costs, 40s.

SPARIUNG.

_ _ ....... _
The attractions at the }'ivcs Court yesterday drew together
most of the potninent amateurs of the fancy, for the benefit of
Marry Holt, Aid-de-Camp to the Commissary-General. The
four men who fought the day before showed, and bore the marks
of strong warfare. The worst head exhibited was that of Spen.
cer, who had to contend in the second battle with youth and
activity. The head of O'Neil looks worse than Baldwin's, the
punishment of the latter being chiefly confined to the left side
of the head from severe right handed hitting.
The sparring was better got up than usual ; and after Jemmy
Lennox and Uadsee had opened the day's play, the following
were among the best sets-to :
The Sailor Youth (Jones) had the best of Goodman in a
fine resolute bout.
Oliver and Ab Ilelasco shook each other's heads in turn, but
they did it pleasantly, and drew forth much applause.
Jem Xl'ard and Acton.—The artist Ward had the best of a
very scientific set-to, although Acton did as much as any other
professor could do. There were flushes of science on the part
of Ward which astonished and delighted the spectators, and
the Court was drowned in applause.
Reid and Deaf Davis worked well, but Reid had the best
of it.

street. His actions with Holt were grand ; at the move of a
muscle something was meant, and with all the science of llolt
he had not length to cope with him. It was another most ex-
cellent set-to, and the whole went off with eclat.

BALLOON.—Mr. GRAHAM was unable to make
his ascent yesterday from the grounds of the Windsor Castle,
at Hammersmith, from the want of a sufficiency of gas to inflate
his balloon. The fact was announced early, to prevent disap.
pointment, in the following bill :—" Mr. Graham mast respect-
fully acquaints the Nobility, Gentry, and Inhabitants of Ham-
mersmith, that the sole cause of his not ascending was in con-
sequence of his not having a proper supply of gas; but every
thing being in a proper state of readiness, he is ready to ascend
the moment he can be supplied with gas. He begs to assure
them that nothing shall be wanting on his part to complete the
ascent as early as possible."

The long talked of marriage between a branch of a Noble
Family and an accomplished Vocal Performer at one of the
Winter Theatres, is reported to us by a Correspondent, to have
been solemnized in a room in the Inn, at one of our great Semi-
naries of Learning, by a regular Priest, without a License.—

[MORNING CHRONICLE.]

We were glad to see that George Hale, the
distributor of religious tracts against war among
the soldiers, was not brought to trial ; indeed,
the man ought never to have been committed.—
In a country in which Christianity is part and
parcel of the law, it would be the height of in-
consistency to punish a man for promulgating, on
the authority of texts of Scripture, doctrines
which, whether true or false, he evidently be-
lieves to be Christian. In a country in which
the Catkolic religion is alone recognized, Spain
for instance, Mr. Hale's principles differing from
those of the Church, might lay him open to a
prosecution for heresy; but in England, where
the utmost latitude of interpretation of Scrip-
tures is tolerated, and where a departure from
the principles of the Established Church does
not authorise prosecution, the Courts of Law can
no longer have any knowledge of Heresy. We
are therefore utterly at a loss to see how there
could be any ground for the commitment of this
religious enthusiast. Is not this then a precious'
state of
_things, that a man may be thrown into
prison for months, for what, in the opinion
of the prosecutors, so little warrants such a
step, that they do not even lay a bill be-
fore a Grand Jury,—and yet obtain no re-
dress ; for we question very much whether an
individual in the situation of Mr. Hale can, by
the laws of this country, obtain any indemnifica-
tion ? It was the height of imbecility in the
Magistrates of Woolwich Dock-yard to meddle
with this enthusiast, and, as we have already
observed, it gives us satisfaction to see that their
act appears in the same light in which it appears
to us, to the authorities of the country:

FRENCH ;PAPERS.

(From the Mails of Tuesday.)
PARIS, OCT. 18.—Some disorders have taken
place to-day, on the occasion .of the interment of
the actor' Philip. His body was brought to the
church of St. Lawrence, the cure of which re-
fused to. receive it. A few persons wished to
take occasion of it to excite a tumult. After
having got possession of the body, they bore it,
about the city. On representations being made
to them, they transported it peaceably to the
cemetery of Pdre Lai Chaise.
MADIt7D, OCT. 7.--13etween four and ,five
o'clock, a sentinel belonging to the Spanish ca-
valry placi:d himself by the fountain of Cibele,
at the entrance of the Prado, to maintain order
in the fair which is held in Rue d'Alcala, and
extends to the promenade. A French soldier,
coming ont of a neightnuring cabaret, half
drunk, approached the sentinel, who wished to
make him withdraw. The soldier resisted, and
even made an attempt to seize the 'reins of 'the
sentinel's horse. 'The sentinel then struck the
French soldier -with his sabre, and gave him a
slight wound an the head. He was afterwards
urrested by the other Spanish soldiers who were
on dirty. While they were conducting the
French soldier to the Rue d'Alcala, a gendarme,
who saw him, wished to rescue the soldier from
'the Spaniards who had 'him in custody, as one
belonging to the French army. The Spanish
soldiers refused to give up 'their prisoner. The
gendarme and some of his comrades who assem-
.hled on the spot, insisted on the liberation of the
'French. soldier. They were' likely to come to
blows ; sabres- were already drawn ; the alarm
was given in the ;Rue d'Alcala; the people fled
ou allxides, and ill-disposed persons raised a re-
port that the French • and the Spaniards were

INDIA.

We 'have -received a regular file of Singapore
Chronicles, from the first publication of the
Journal in April last, to the end of May. From
the Paper dated May,l3, we make the,Gollowing
Extracts:—

" The ship Surabaya arrived from -Batavia on the 6th inst.,i
with a cargo of Banco tin, japan, copper, coffee, and a few
spices. By this ship we learn, thati the Pirates are again in
force on the coast of Java, and that they have 'succeeded in cap-
turing another vessel under 'Dutch colours. We are'sincerely
sorry to learn that the most serious apprehensions are entertain-
ed for the personal safety of Mr. THORN TON, who it is feared,
has fallen a victim to the cruelty of the pirates. .The Chief-of
these rovers is a native of Lingen, and for four years has been
constantlyoccupiad in his piratical expeditions.
" MANILLA.—We have hitherto had no direct intercourse'
between this port and the Phillipine Islands ; but we have the
satisfaction to announce that such intercourse has 'commenced
under very favourable auspices. Satisfactory accounts of the
state of the Manila market having been received at this settle-
ment, an investment, consisting chiefly of British manufactures,
was immediately shipped off, and on the 2Sth -ult. we received
a valuable cargo of the productions of the Phillipines, consigned
to one of the principal houses of agency here. The whole 'of
these were sold at public auction, at most advantageous -prices.
" Our accounts from Canton state that the price or opium
had fallen considerably, and a still greater reduction was ex-
pected. A number of small European vessels under Spanish
anti Portuguese colours have, in the course of the season, pene-
trated with cargoes of opium as far north as the Straits of For-
mosa, and they have in general made advantageous voyages.—
This smuggling trade goes on not only at these ports, but also
at, Canton, most extensively, and all this in open defiance,and
contempt of the Chinese Authorities, which as well from their
own weakness as the corruption of their Officers, are unable to
offer any resistance.
" Another Cochin-China -junk came on the' Ilth, and her
arrival. is interesting, so far as it announces a connection with
anew port. She clears out from Tao Tem about the middle
of Cochin-China, and we believe the name of this place is new
to European.geography.

THE KING.

'WINDSOR, OCT. 20.—This afternoon his MAJESTY took
an airing in his pony phreton through the principal rides ad.
joining the Royal Lodge.—General Sir Samuel Ilulse took
leave of his Majesty this morning, and departed from the
Royal Lodge.—After the official business had been transacted
yesterday at the Castle, his Majesty, attended by Mr. Wyat-
villa, inspected the progress tkat had been made in the im-
provements.—A rumour is in general circulation that the state
apartments are to be immediately fitted up for the winter resi-
dence of his Majesty, and that the Lower Lodge is to be pre-
pared fur the reception of his Majesty's suite. For the truth
of this report we will not pledge ourselves, but it has been
mentioned to us from so many quarters, as to warrant the be-
lief that it is not wholly without foundation.

GRECIAN VISITORS.
Considerable attention has been =acted in the City to se-
veral Greek youths, who within the last day or two have been
visiting the public institutions of the metropolis. These are.
we understand, the sons of some of the most distinguished
Greek Chiefs, and have been brought to England by Mr.
Btaquiere, for the purpose of being educated under the auspices
of the Greek Committee. On Tuesday two of them visited the
stock Exchange, and were received with loud cheers by all
present. The costume in which they are attired is of a very
costly description, and excited much admiration.

BRIGHTON, OCT. 19.—Lady Bentinek, after a few days
sojourn, left the Royal York Hotel this morning, to return to
Holbrook, near Horsham, the seat of Admiral Sir J. H. and
Lady Whitshed.—Colonel French is arrived at the above

tiotel.—Earl Whitworth and the Duchess of Dorset took a
carriage airing yesterday.— Sir R. Keates and Sir George
Prescott arc returned to this place. Sir W. Fletcher has
left us.

EDINBURGH, OCT. 18.—(Grand Musical Festival.)—To
gratify the public curiosity to see the preparations for the per-
formances, we understand that the Parliament-house will be
open from 12 till 4 o'clock on Wednesday and subsequent days
of this week. —Their Graces the Duke and Duchess of Argyll
set out yesterday from the Waterloo Hotel, (Oman's) for their
seat at lnverary.—On Saturday last his Grace the Duke, and
her Grace the Duchess of Bedford and family, left Gibb's Hotel
for London.

ing Pamphlet on the state of Greece. We regret that we have
at present only room for the following extract :
" The state of Greece is not easily conveyed to the mind of a
foreigner. The society is formed —lst of the Primates, who
lean to oligarchy, or-Turkish principle of Government; 2dly,
of the Captains, who profess democr itical naions, but who
are, in reality, for power and . plund r ; and lastly, of the
people, who are irreproachable in chafacter, and of course de-
sire to have a proper weight in the Constitution. The people of
the Peloponnesus are much under the influence of the civil
and military oligarchies. Those of Eastern and of Western
• Greece are chiefly under the Captains. Of these Odysseus
is the most influential : his father never bowed to the Turkish
yoke; he was a freeman and a robber. Odysseus himself was
hmusht up by the famous tyrant Ali Pacha. lie is shrewd anti
ambitious, and has played the tyrant, but is now persuaded
that the road to fame and wealth is by pursuing good govern-
men t. He therefore follows this course, and supports the people
and the republic. Negris, who once signed his sentence of
death, is now his Minister. Of the islands, hydra and Spezzia
are under the influence of some rich oligarchs, supported by
the rabble; and Ipsara is purely democratic.
" The parties may be said to be three—l st, There is Mavro-
cordato, the oligarchs of the islands, and some of those of the
Peloponnesus, and the legislative body. These are for order
and a mild despotism, either under a foreign king, or other-
wise. This faction stood high, but must now change its prin-
ciples or lose its power ; 2dly, There is Colocotroni, and some
of the captains, and some of the oligarchs of the Mores, who
are for power and plunder. This party is going down hill at a
gallop. Anti 3dly, There is Ipsilanti, Odysseus, Negris, and
the mass who are now beginning to embrace republican notions,
finding that they cannot otherwise maintain their power."

FESTIVITIES AT CAMPSALL PARK.

Sir Joseph anti Lady Radcliffe entertained a large party on
Wednesday last, consisting of the most distinguished
shionnbles in the neighbourhood, on the occasion of the
birth of a son and heir. A splendid dinner was succeeded by a
ball and supper ; the former was opened by Lady Radcliffe
and Lord • Macdonald. At the latter every delicacy of the
season, and the choicest wines were displayed. The Rand of the
Inniskillen' Dragoons, in their full dress uniforms, attended and
played a selection of airs during the dinner, and assisted by
Harman's quadrille Band, enlivened the evening's amuse-
ments till a hue hour. On the following morning a sumptuous
drjenne succeeded, and the Badsworth fox-hounds awaited the
heroes of the chase on the lawn. The whole concluded by a
magnificent display of fireworks In the evening.--Among the
number of fashlonables present were—Lord and Lady Macdo-
nald, Lord and Lady Staffbrd, the lion, Misses Macdonald, the

DRURY LANE THEATRE.--Mr. SAPIO, who
made so favourable an hnpression on the public
in The Seraskier, on Saturday last assumed the
part of Orlando, in the Comic Opera of The
Cabinet, with equal success. Several of the
diurnal Critics have intimated that he copies
the style of Mr. BRAIIASI. We do not
think so ; he has a style of his own, and
though it at times may appear too ornamental,
yet it seems to be so more in compliance with
the taste of the times, than in gratification of his
own. He pleased the audience so much on Satur-
day that he was obliged to repeat one air thrice.
We have not room to give sufficient notice of Miss
STEPHENS, Miss POVEY and HARLEY, who all
eminently contributed to render the piece pe-
culiarly successful on this OCCIISIOII. The new
farce of My Uncle Gabriel followed, and its
success was. fully ratified by the universal ap-
plause of a very numerous audience.
Time LATE MR. KEMBLE.—The KING'S express
and most gracious permission, to dedicate to His
MAJESTY the Life of Mr. KEMBLII, was on Sa-
turday communicated to Mr. BoAnstx by Mr.
PEEL, the Secretary of State for the Borne
Department.

We learn that the little Theatre in Catherine-
street, Strand, is taken by Gentlemen of talent,
rank, fortune, and education, in order to eats.
blish a National Theatre for the improvement of
the rising generation, in which Elocution, Singing,
Dancing, Fencing, the Languages, and all ac.
quirements which adorn accomplished society,
are to be taught by Professors of the first emi-
nence. Such an Institution holds forth strong
pre
tensions to public protection, and will doubt-
less be successful.
A gentleman who had neither voice nor skill,
' once attempting to sing in company, when he had
come to a conclusion, Bannister said, 44 Your
song, Sir, is like the small-pox."--" how' is
that ?" said the company—" explain, explain.' •••''•
44 Why," rejoined the Wit, " a devilish good
thing when it is over."
The late JONG, riding over Richmond-hill, in-
quired to whom belonged a stone fronted house
of peculiarly handsome appearance, then fitting
up. Being told that it was the property of Mr.
his Majesty's card-maker, he said,
t,B, L
is,uhacta Amn man's
t cards must have turned up all
rumps."

' ALARMING FIRE
AT TRINITY COLLEGE, CAMBRIDGE.

A fire broke out last Friday morning in the
south-east corner of that magnificent pile of
buildings, the new quadrangle of Trinity Col-
lege,Cumbridge. The first alarm was given about
ten o'clock in the morning, and in about a quar-
ter of an hour an engine was brought to bear
upon the building. Few persons only having
collected in the first instance, the fire had gained
some head by half-past ten, and flames burst
out from every window ; by this time, how-
ever, a very large number had assembled, and
two more engines were brought in, which played
with great success; at a little after eleven, several
men having reached the top of the
building, took
off the slates, and two pipes being conveyed there,
and a large supply of %ater procured, they
poured it downwa ids in torrents. This expe-
dient proved, highly effectual, and happily by
twelve o'clock the fire was completely extin-
guished. It broke out in the ground floor, where
a number of doors and planks had been placed
to dry, and the damage consists principally in
the large quantity of timber which has been
destroyed. The outside is very little injured,
but the floors and ceilings are nearly demo-
' lisped. The Master and Fellows of Trinity
College were indefatigable in their exertions and
giving the necessary orders in every direction,
while the Members of the University in general
laubably flocked from every College to assist in
bringing pails of water to supply the engines.—
Four double rows were formed with the- greatest
regularity to the river, and had it not been for
the immense numbers, and the promptitude and
regularity with which they assisted, the fire would
inevitably have been attended with the most se-
rious results. No lives were in danger, us the
south and west sides of the quadrangle are not
yet inhabited.
