LONDON,
FRIDAY EVENING, JULY 14, 18.26.

The Paris Papers of Tuesday, with the Etoi/e OT
Wednesday morning, reached us by express lost night.
They contain many further particulars of the insurree'
Lion of the Janissaries in Constantinople, which sr
pears to have been of • the most alarming description'
and likely to be productive of important consequent.*
'The. city had far some days presented a scene of cO
fusion and alarm, and on the 13th June several Orl°
of the Janissaries sallied from the barracks, and con'
menced the most horrid excesses, utteringiMprecattold
against the Sultan. The tumult' increasing, the•Statn!

their quarters, which were set on fire, and all di
who had taken refuge in them were burnt to death, v"

In another column will be found the extract of a

private letter from Bmyrita, which takes a very

vourable view of the Greekeause. A Smyrna Paper
states, that M. ROGER, Aide-de-Camp to the French
Ambassador at Constantinople, had recently arrived
in Smyrna, and immediately embarked in a French
brig of war in quest of Admiral DE RIG NY, with a
view, as report stated, of giving him orders to join
the Austrian division, in order to put an end to the
piracies committed under the Greek flag.

Frankfort Papers of the 7th inst. have likewise
reached us this forenoon. They contain nothing but
what has been given in another column from Smyrna,
through other channels. It is added, however, that
France at length, weary of the daily insults offered to its
nag, has ordered her Admiral in the Levant to pursue
all Greek ships without exception, since they are
ahnost, without exception, all pirates.
Colonel FABvIER, who has been sent to Athens
to assist GOURA, has been bnperiously ordered by
that Chief to leave, the city, " which," says he, " is in
no danger so long as my arm can wield a sword."

Letters were received in town yesterday from Riga
to the 30th June, by which we learn, that in conse-
quence of the excessively dry weather, which had con-
tinued for a great length of time there, the new crop
of flax was likely to prove a short one. The crops
generally had been injured by the same cause.
Hemp was, however, steady in price, but linseed
rather higher. Wheat more freely sold than at the
date of the preceding letters.--Exchange, 9j to 9 7-16.

We have rectived this morning !Lisbon Gazettes to
the Ist inst, inclusive, from which the following,.are
extracts. The health of the, Princess Regent has
already benefitted by the waters of Caldas da Rainha.
No mention is made of the arrival of Sir CHARLES
STUA RT, as stated in tne rrencn' Papers, nor do they
contain any intelligence of interest relative to the affairs
of Brazil, or the resolution of the Emperor.

LISBON, JUNE 30..

The Gazette of thil date contains three bulletins of the
health of the Princess Regent, dated Caldas da Rainha,
the latest of alto 27th June. Her Royal Highneis, with
her two sisters, the Infuntati Donna Maria D'Assumpcao
sand Donna Anna de Jesus, arrived at that place on the
22d, in the evening. She had begun to drink the waters
on the 23d, and had already derived great benefit from
them; her appetite was improved, and she was daily
gaining strength.
Ala 1.--The Gazette contains an advertisement from
the war-office addressed to the Commissioners appointed
to distribute the prize-money due to the troops engaged
in the peninsular war. The Commissioners are directed
nottO receive any elaims after the 10th August next, as it
it not just that the distribution of the prize-money should
be longer delayed.

this morning. A. British► Cabi►iet .Messenger passed
through here this Morning, on his way from St. Peters-
burgh to London, with despatches. The Crown Prince

examination before the .High Court at Utrecht, will be
biought before a Court of Assize in these provinces. It
said that the accusation extends to 20 persons.

Some Accounts relative to the SitinpiNG of this
Country have just been published, in pursuance of the
orders of the late House of Commons: by one of
these, viz : " An Account of the Number of Ships,

that the General Trade of the Port of London, had
increased in an extraordinary degree in the last two
years. The foll Owing Abstract may enable our
Readers to form a correct kidgment of the extent of
the Trade of the Pott of London, without our going
into detail :--

ber of Vessels, with the amount of their Tonnage, that
were built and registered in His Majesty's dominions,
(exclusive of Ireland), from the years 1814 to 1825,

building since 1822. The following is an Abstract

His Majesty's ship Galatea has arrived at Spit-
head, bringing despatches from Mr. COCKBURN, our
Minister to Colombia, who landed at the Havannah.
The Galatea left the Havannah on the 20th June,
but brings nothing new.

Letters from Paris state, that 27 young Officers were
on the eve of leaving that capital, to join the Greeks,
and at Marseilles would be joined by 50 more ; but
they experienced great difficulty in procuring passports
from the French Government.

Letters from Toulon, of the 2.1 July, state that the
sloop Truite had sailed for the Levant with the
Greek Deputies on board, going to Smyrna to treat
with the Greek Government on a subject of the
highest importance.

Letters from the frontiers of Spain state that a corps
of observation, composed of 20 regiments, are to as-
semble on the banks of the Adour.

A Cabinet Council will be held on Tuesday next,
at which it is expected that' all his Majesty's Ministers
will be present. Mr. CANNING comes from Brighton
on Monday, and Lord MELVILLE is expected in
town on the same day from Scotland.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.
COURT OF CHANCERY--(Tuis DAY.)

PRACTICE IN LUNACY.

At the sitting of the Court, a- gentleman behind the
bar rose to mention a matter in lunacy, but as soon as his
:Lordship heard the word lunacy, be expressed, himself in
the following terms : -" I shall hear no matter in lunacy.
I hive no objection to this—with respect-to any petition
in lunacy; that any gentleman feels a necessity for having a
speedy determination upon ; 1 shall, in every such ease
take the petition with me to read, and then say what I
,think of it; but I never shall again confirm a master's re-
port in lunacy, without having read both the petition and
the report, merely upon what may be stated to me at the
bar,"

Mr. Lynch. soon after this statement, made, his
appearance in Court, whose presence occasioned what
follows. On the day before yesterday, he presented
a petition in the matter of Webb and Lord Shaftes-
bury, praying the confirmation of the Master's re-
port. His Lordship refused .to confirm it, till he had
read the papers; and being asked to see them, his opi-
nion will be collected from these words :—" Now, Mr.
Lynch, you will allow me to mention also, that I am not
satisfied with the report in lunacy, respecting the buildings
at Peckham ; and that is another instance proving that it
is a mere farce to confirm a report in lunacy, without see-
ing what it is. I have mentioned this to the Master, as
being my mind of the thing. The question here is, whe-
ther I ought to confirm a report, granting a lease of land
for 99 years, to build four houses upon, each of which is to
cost .500/. in building, as being
beneficial to the luna-
tic's estate ? Now, I feel a great difficulty in lay-
ing an onuson a lunatic's estate, in compliment to
these houses, that are only to cost .500/. each. I must
have an affidavit distinctly stating, that it will be for the
benefit of the lunatic's estate that such a report should be
confirmed."

Mr. Lynch.—But your Lordship will observe, the rent
is to be an increasing rent, from 20 to 1001. a-year.
His. Lordship.—Never mind that.. You will give me
leave to say, that the houses are
.only to cost 4500/. each,
and what sort of things must they be ? I desire to have
an affidavit on the subject. But the thing I, am ex-
tremely anxious to impress is this—there have always
been days set apart for hearing lunacies—it has
been supposed that a great deal of time is not given
to lunacies ; now I take leave to contradict that, for I
take it to be the duty of the Chancellor to read all the
petitions and the reports. But if, day after day, gentle-
men are instructed to come here and ask that a Master's
report may be confirmed, when it is utterly impossible the
Chancellor can know any thing of it, that is nothing more
than what just amounts to a farce! It is not that I wish to
delay a decision, and therefore what I now offer to the
Bar is, that if any gentleman wishes to mention a lunatic
petition which he considers pressing, if he will give me the
papers, for instance, to-day, I shall read them to-night, and
be prepared to hear the application to-morrow morning.
But to ask to have reports confirmed which ought not to be
confirmed, is nothing more than a pure waste of time and
expellees. It is attended besides with a great degree of in-
convenience and expense, occasioned in this way; that the
secretary of lunatics' not being here, he does not know
what passes, but it gives the Registrar a duty which does
not belong to him, and which creates confusion, expense,
and delay, though it was, intended to be otherwise.
