CORO N ERS' INQUESTS.

Yesterday afternoon nit Inquest was held at.
the sign of the King's Arms, Milbank, before T. Ilit3Gs,
Esq., Deputy Coroner for Westminster, on view of the body of
James Freeman, a young gentleman, aged 17 years, who was'
drowned in the River Thames, under the following melancholy
circumstance :—Mr. William Philp, a young gentleman re-
siding at No. 112, Jermyn-street, St. James's, deposed that
the deceased anti himself went on Sunday morning last •to
Mr. Sawyer's, boat-builder, at Milbank, and hired a boat for
the purpose of bathing; witness took the sculls, and rowed the
boat partly across the river, and when near the floating gravel
machine they saw some boys bathing; deceased requests d wit-
ness to pull between the boat belonging to the parties bathing.
and a barge that lay alongside the gravel machine. ne,Pi't
so ; but the current drove the boat shine-side the barge. l'in't
deceased then stood upon the thwart of the boat, with a view of
pushing her off' when she sheered off, leaving deceased hanging
upon the gunwale-of the barge; witness told him to bang on
and he would pull towards him, but instead of doing this, he
said he would drop into the. water and swim e.the moment be
got into the water be sunk ; witness

Extracts from the Morning Pe:per:lJuly 16

EItOIINTNG POST.?
The Foreigh Journals which reached our
Office last night state, on the authority of letters
from Augsburg!), that the conferences of the
Ministerial Congress at Johannisberg continued
to attract more and more attention from the ar-
rival of fresh Plenipotentiaries, although nothing
transpired respecting their object. The absence
of an English Representative at this assembly
gave rise to many conjectures, but tended upon
the whole to increase the popularity of England,
as it was believed that she refused to participate
in the discussions, because she knew that they
were fiostile to the rights mid independence of
nations. It was affirmed that Sir Henry Wel-
lesley, the British Minister at Vienna, haul been
invited, like the other Foreign Ambassadors, to
attend, but that he had immediately declined.—
Of this no doubt can be entertained after the
public assurances given both by Mr. Secretary
Canning and the Earl of Liverpool, at the close
of the last Session, that England had again rejected
the proposal made to her to become party to a
Congress. The only result of the present con-
ferences yet known is said to be, that the Wir-
temberg Minister for Foreign Affairs had suc.
ceeded in obtaining the restoration of diplomatic
relations between the Cabinets of Vienna and
Berlin and that of his Master.

[muTisu enEss.ll
By the Flanders mail which arrived last night,
we learn that the Porte still continues, at every
risk, to delay the evacuation of Moldavia and
Wallachia. The English and Austrian Ambas-
sadors had beets pressing the Divan very ur-
gently, in consequence of dispatches from
Count Nesse!rode, the Russian Minister. The
Reis Effendi had had recourse to every pal-
try artifice to waste time, but the patience of the
diplomatic body is nearly exhausted, and all the
expedients of the Divan must give way to the
obligations of treaties and the force of circum-
stances. From Constantinople we hear that much
murmuring has taken place against the conduct of
the Captain Paella, whose landings on the Greek
shores have in every instance been repulsed. The
mysterious conferences at Johannisberg are con-
tinued. It is said that Sir Henry Wellesley was
invited to attend them, but declined.

[MORNING HERALD.]
Two of our contemporaries have been several
days amusing their readers with a censure and
defence of Ministers for not having sent their
carriages to follow Lord Byron's remains out of
town. We know of no one who can be interest-
ed in such mummery, except the undertakers.
Funeral ceremonies, beyond those of religion,
are questionable at the best ; and have generally
been deprecated by wise men ; but when it comes,
as it now does, to thu downright folly of a man
sending his carriage and servants to the obsequies
of his friend, instead of attending larnself, it may
be fairly inferred that humbug has arrived at the
climax of absurdity.

[NEW TUSIES.]

The funds were: yesterday again slightly de.
pressed from the effect of the account to be set-
tled this day. Consols opened at 94th and in
the afternoon were at 944 a•, at which price they
closed. The prevailing opinion appears to be
that the prices will recover so soon as the ac-
count is adjusted ; money continuing so abund-
ant, and likely to receive so important an addi.
tion by .the amount of dividends payable to
the Public. The settlement of the Account in
Foreign Securities which took place yesterday,
Was attended by' an event of into rather un-
COMMOIar—DO less than four failures were an-
nounced, two of them to a considerable extent,
and their losses are said to have been occasioned
principally by the very material changes In
the 'able of South American Securities. A re-
port was circulated of an- attachment having
issued agabist the proceeds in the hands of the
contractors of the last loan to Colombia, by a
creditor of the Government; but there appears
some doubt as to the legality of such a proceed-
ing ; it had however the effect of lowering the
Scrip to 51 discount, but it finally closed at 41.
It was said the Peruvian Scrip had been sold at
the large discount Of 30 per cent. The instal-
ment upon the last Mexican Loan having been
paid up, the Bonds have been brought out and
closed at 531. Portuguese Bonds 88. In the
other securities there was no alteration deserving
notice.

[MORNING CHRONICLE.]
PAR/E, JULY 13, 1824.—Whatever the Mini-
sterial Journals may say, the sending of nano-
verian troops to Portugal occupies the attention
of the Cabinet of the Tuileries. This event,
which M. de Villele was far from expecting,
brings a number of delicate matters under dis-
cussion which were thought to, be already decided.
—it has been proposed in the Council to cause
Portugal to be occupied by 25,000 French troops,
and M. Pozso di forgo is the Author of this plan.
This [salt European question, and puts all the Am-
bassadors of the Holy Alliance at Paris in motion.
Even the Austrian Ambassador has shaken off the
gravity and reserve of the German character, and
has mingled officially in this matter. Sir Charles
'Stewart has already exchanged several notes
with M. de Wide, and the result is, that Prince
Paul 'Esterhazy set out yesterday for Londen.
It is said, that the result of his mission is to
persuade the Cabinet of St. James to leave things
statu quo, and provide for the interior tran-
quillity of Portugal by other means. The Holy
Alliance dreads a rupture, and, notwithstanding
its exaggerated pretensions, will make many
sacriftces, rather than disturb the general peace!
'Fite arrival of the Haitian Commissioner' fins
been already mentioned. lie is come to nego-
date a treaty with Prance, the bases of which are
to be the same as were proposed in 1814 by,M..
iiftWonLoreysse, the igen t of Louis X VI I T., and
whet tra3 after disgracefully disavowed. The rage
far tegitirmt7 1; la etrongt that it has'passed :from

Europe to America ; and the Negroes also ore
determined, at any price, to have a legitimate
government. However this may be, the prelimi-
naries settled are a treaty of Commerce, entirely
in favour of France, a pecuniary indemnity grant-
ed to the ancient Colonists or their Representa-
tives ; and?on the other hand, the recognition
of the Republic. It is supposed, apparently with
justice, that the whole of this pretended negocia-
tion has no other object than to sound opinion,and
to provide the means of immediately bringing back
St.llorningo under the dominion of France. A cor-
rect calculation published some time ago, shewed
that the black population was gradually diminish-
ing. Fre nce,therefore,isgradually attaininga power
which will enable her to accomplish this by force.
As to the affair of the Quolidienne, with respect
to the Circular of the Archbishop of Toulouse, it
is a true German quarrel. In the requisition of
the public prosecutor we recognize the secret
vengeance of M. de Villele. Not being able to
oust M. Michaud from the property, the object
is to condemn him, and annihilate the Quoli-
dienne, which they could not buy. The whole
of this miserable intrigue is only a contest be-
tween the persons in power and those out of
office, and if M. de Chateaubriand was to enter
the Ministry to-morrow, he would the next day
find a good reason for praising those he now at-
tacks with so much animation.
