half-past ,nine this morning, and abstracting front a shelf three
remnants of superfine clod►, with which he was making t)II, when
he was pursued by Milli Steele, who witnessed the transaction.
She overtook hint a few yards' from the 'door, and resolutely col-
lared him. While; endeaVouring to loose l►imself from her hold
(he having previously dropped the ninth), one of the Bow-street
patrol passed, and he was secured.
The prisoner said that he was a hawker of braces, &se. and had
been driven by distress to the commission ►f the crime..

(From the Etbile.)
CORM, Sai"r. 6.—They write from Prevesa, under
date of the 26th and 296 of last month, that Veli,Bey,
GoVernor of Arta, has disarmed all the Greeks of the
mountains of that province, leaving only arms to the two
small troops of Captains Gogo and Cutulida, appointed to
maintain peace in the interior. This same Veli-Bey had
received letters from his brother, dated from the Ottoman
camp at Athens, stating that a serious mortality had pre-
veiled in the troops of the Semskier since the battle which
took Ogee in that city; that two Greek Captains had en-
tered into the Citadel ; but that it appeared that their
troops were not numerous. After the reiterated and fruit-
less attempts which Karaiskaki made for penetrating into
that place and reinforcing the garrison. Two Tartars
have Just arrived from Constantinople with two finnan*,
one of which decrees that all Mussulniono shall hereafter
bear neither gold nor silver upon his arms or clothing.
The other finnan is relative to the proceedings of Month
Balm, who is now residing at Missolonghi, and who is
appointed Volissi Tractile. There are strong reasons
for believing that the Seraskier has received orders to quit
Attica, and go to Janina, to reorganize the regular troops;
and they calculated on being able to assemble fifty thou-
sand men in that province. '[here have arrived at these
islands, within the last six weeks, about 160 women and
children belonging to the slaves of the Turks, who were
brought here by the inhabitants of Prevesa, and a merchant.
from Corfu, named. Jerostothi, a correspondent of the
Greek Committee at Paris and Berlin. The slaves were
purchased from the Turks at the price of from 3QO to 3000
l'uritish piastres a-head. A Committee has been formed
under the auspices of the Government, for the purpose of
supporting them. Young Marina, who had been taken
and made "a !Ave in the Murea, after the death of his fa-
ther,.who was killed at the siege of Missolonghi, was ran-
somed at IVlodou European officer, by paying 5,000
piastres.

of coals without delivering the meter's ticket, and the second wail
for carting the above coals from the wharf without having rum-

the defendant subjected himself to a penalty of 10/. for each offence.

LORDON,
FRIDAY. EVENING, DECEMBER 8, 1826.

Having been enabled in our Paper of yesterday to
give the French news to Wednesday morning, we have
not received any subsequent accounts from Paris.

We received last night Hamburgh Papers to the
2d instant, and Brussels Papers to the Gth ; they con-
tain intelligence from St. Petersburgh to the 20th
November, but it is of no importance. The EM-
PEROR seems determined to re-equip a navy. . On the
16th his IMPERIAL MAJESTY, accompanied by the
Prince of HESSE HOMBURGII, the Austrian Ambas-
sador, visited the Admiralty ; his MAJESTY remained
along time in the dock-yard, where three ships of the
line are on the stocks, which are to be ready in the
spring ; and in order to accelerate their completion, he
ordered 1000 additional carpenters to be employed
upon them.
It was reported that the Grand Duke MICHAEL
would take the chief command'of the whole corps of
the Guards, and that General WOINOCO, their pre-
sent commander, would be named a Member of the
Couhcil of the Empire.
The celebrated Astronomer, Professor BODE, lately
died at Berlin, at the age of eighty years. He had
filled the chair of Royal Professor of Astronomy
for nearly fifty-four years, and continued his researches
to the last moment of his existence, having been found
dead while sitting at his desk.

and Mr. WILNIOT Hon Tow gave notice of his inten-
tion to move, on the 15th February, for the appoint-

THE FUNDS.

•
CITY, (Triis DAY), Twelve o' Cock.
Consols have been steady all this morning at 844 4, without
any particular business. In the Foreign Funds a sudden decline
has taken place since the opening of business ; Mexican Bonds
were 714 1, but have fallen to 704 4; Colombian, from 414,
have fallen to 391 ; a good deal of business has been transacted,
but this decline is attributed to the state of the account rather
than to any fresh intelligenee received, Extensive interest has
lately been exhibited among speculators in Schemes, and the
stimulus seems to be continued in Anglo Mexican, the discount
having fallen to 15 ~ United Mexican to 4i 34, and they were
done at 2 dm. after hours of business yesterday ; Potosi, 75 7 per

The Arigna Committee of Inquiry met yester-
day, and in the evening obtained leave to meet to pursue their
inquiries, notwithstanding any adjournment of the House. It is
.to be hoped that this Committee will spare neither time nor
labour in probing this Thing to the bottom ; and we hope that
it is merely a prelude to probing other things of a still more ini-
quitous nature than' this. .

subject of suffering newspapers to pass postage-free to the Colo-
oieso when there were so many and such obvious advantages in
promoting, by this best of all means, the closest intercourse be-
tween the Colonies and the mother-country ; it' was surprising
that a paltry profit (not more than 1,0001,47)4iir, altogether)
should be suffered to interpose itself as a bar to 'so reasonable an
arrangement. He hoped the subject would not escape the notice
of the Colonial Secretary.
Mr. LUSHINGTON said his Hon. Friend (Mr.
