From /4 4adrid, we learn by these Papers, that the Por-
tuguese Government had formally demanded that the
Regime ants which had deserted into Spain, and the
arms w hich had been taken from them, should be re-
turned ; the latter part of the demand had been com-
plied frith by the Spanish Government. The de-
parture of Mr. LANIn, the British Minister, for the.
Royal residence at Ildefonso, appears to have excited
many c tonjectures in Madrid.

The } dote contains an article from Augsburgh,
under . date of August 20, which describes Constan-
.
ttrioph as having been the scene of fresh scenes of
anarch .y and bloodshed The religious prejudices of
the people are said to have been offended by some of
the ne mw measures of the SULTAN, to such an extent,
as, to lead them to' use seditious cries, and to repulse
the m; ilitary sent to seize the most 'outrageous ; a second
sally of the soldiers overpowered the mob, and
hund reds of the factious paid the penalty of their
rashness by death. Extracts will be found in another
colur an.

Me effects of the recent measure of His MA-
JE STY'S Government, were still further manifested
ye, tterday. The prices of oats, beans, and peas,
de dined most materially, and wheat and barley found
buyers at the prices of the preceding market day.
NI /bile this effect has been produced in our market,
t! is Order in Council has of course produced a con-
trary one in the markets of foreign countries. An
e normous rise in the price of all descriptions of grain,
F' las already taken place in those ports to which
t he knowledge of the measure had reached, and of
;ourse, similar consequences will be felt in most of the
4 Corn Markets of Europe. The stimulus which this
oust necessarily give to trade, will be very great—and
ihe effect of it will be immediately felt throughout
1 ;he whole of this Kingdom.

The grower of corn in a foreign country, who
)btais more than the average and calculated price of
his commodity, will expend a part of that profit in
procuring additional comforts, and the majority of
. the articles necessary for this purpose, either directly
'or indirectly, will come from, or be furnished by this
country. The very expectation of this effect, has
already revived the trade of many of the manufacturing
towns. Letters from all the districts in which bum-
wins was most dull, announce that a life and cheerful-
ness has been inspired by the hopes which have been
:revived, and by the actual orders which have been
received, since this first abandonment of the Corn
Restrictive Regulations.
If this proceeding should be followed up, as we
h ill) no doubt it will be, by the new Parliament on its
a isernbling, with, the general and permanent opening of
the Ports for the importation of grain, on payment of a
duty of fair and moderate amount, the manufacturing
posperity of Great Britain will revive, and we shall
ht..er no further cries of distress in our streets, nor
complaints of the decline of our commerce, revenue,
or liational enterprise.

`The Mexican paper El Sol, from 25th June to
Judy 2, inclusive, reached us yesterday, but•they con-
tain no news whatever. They are filled with domestic
affairs, such as the Education of the People, Vaccina-
tion, and local occurrences.

'We received last night, the Allgenicine Zeitung to

the Ist instant, and Dutch Papers to the 4th. Their
contents are unimportant, with the exception of all
*retitle which we subjoin from Trieste, dated August
'43, by which we are led to believe that the Greek
flees had obtained some advantages ever the Turkish
fleet when it was divided. The statement of Is KARIM%
defelt and retreat to Calamata is also repeated in this
article :

TairsTE, AUG. 23.—Letters from Syra, of 28th and
29th July say, that the Turkiih fleet had separated into
two divisions, miss went to Suda, the other took in troops
at Mitylene and Selo, and attacked Samos. Rut the
Greek fleet of forty sail under Sachtury soon arrived.
About the 27th July, there was an action in which a
Greek fire ship burnt a large Turkish vessel. The next
day the battle continued, but the result was not known at
_§yra. Ibrahim, who had advanced with 4,000 men against
Maina having been defeated in three engagements with
the Greeks, hastily retreated to Calamata. His whole
ray in Greece at that time was estimated at 7,000 or
;,00 teen, so that the Greeks had resolved to act on the
,°:lensime, for which purpose 4,000 Rurneliots were to join
'lle other troops in the field. Athens defends itself bravely
against the enemy encamped under its walls. The city is
well firnished with provisions and brave soldiers.

•
Another and another of these eternal meetings of
wranitling companies took place yesterday and the day
hefori yesterday, and will take place to-morrow and the
day after ; but they are all bankrupt in hope, if not in
reality, for the golden dreaming shareholders are now
but too sadly assured- that they can never realize " the
gay to-morrow of the mind," which they were led to
anticipate from the illusory rcpre.sentatiOns of the
worthy projectors, and right worthy Directors or these
moonshine speculations. No sooner was one Villainous
scheme concocted, than' another more seductive burst
into existence, succeeded by others still more "
till the wonder was, where would all this end ?---.EVe4
body thought, that if the world did not get much
Wiser„ it got all at once richer than imagination coulil
conceive ; for peoPle could hardly count the immensity
of fortune they were to amass by so many speculations,
and alll so simple too I—it was marvellous they never
.fliought of them before ! Provident fathers began to
Pottle n off their daughters at a high price, and beheld
with smothered glee the. coronets dancing on theft.
Jude .g,
Tandsons' heads ! It was really a sight worth
4eeingl—but the good man did not long dream in
Peace--4he hubble 'hUrst, and he' was awoke by tI4
"Oosion. The wonder-Working schemes. embraced
heaven and earth in the mighty grasp of their .opers7

nothing too large which they could not magnify

rto be pressed into the service,' and the bubble was to
be kept, boiling hot by the genuine steam, home-brewed
by the Imperial Distillery Company. It was a jubilee
of wealth and glory—a patent joint-stock concern.,
The. Anglo-Mexicans were to conjure up' gold
for a thousand generations, and the mining divers
of Cornwall were to outdo all the .diamonds ol• Gol-
conda, and the precious stones of Potosi, by the help
of Mr. WlLKs's charming wand, so potent in .turning
cockle-shells into platina, and copper ore into bur-
nished gold, and all for the benefit of the believers,
all whose riches

Cams like shadows, so depart."

SHAFTESBURY .BOROUGH' SESSIONS.

At these Sessions on Saturday, the Magistrates Mani-
fested a very different spirit from that which Mr. Bankes
and other Justices are reported to have done at Winborne
on Friday. On the entrance of the Reporter into the
Justice-roma, before the other Magistrates had arrived, he
was recognized by Charles Bowles, Esq., the worthy Re-
corder, who said, " Mr. Reporter, I am very glad to see
you here. And you may depend upon it, that at these
Sessions you will never find hindrances, but the utmost
accommodation that it is in our power to afford you."
The only case of the slightest importance tried here,
show the slight regard which many persons pay to the ob-
ligations of oaths. A labourer of the name of Brickill, of
Motcomb, was brought up in custody, on suspicion of
having stolen some cart harness from a Mr. Bennett, of
Shaftesbury, and selling it to' his master. He declared
that he had found it, and that he bad a witness to prove it.
The witness, on being called, turned out to be his mother.
The RECORDER said, that he had great objection to this
woman's swearing, considering her near relationship to the
prisoner. She appeared, however, most anxious to do so,
and on being asked if she knew what would become of her
if she took a false oath, she instantly said, " I shall be
d--d to hell for ever." The Recorder still objected to
her being sworn, when one of the Magistrates suggested
the propriety of examining the prisoner and his mother
separately, and the latter was ordered to withdraw. Upon
their separate examinations, it turned out that the son had
picked up, as he said, the harness in. one plane, and the
witness would have sworn, if she had been permitted, that
she saw him pick it up at a point widely different.
The man is committed for trial at the Quarter Sessions.
The penalty incurred by Mr. flutter, for printing with-
out putting his name at the foot of a circular-letter, as re-
ported a fortnight ago, hai been reduced to 51. by the Ma-
gistrates, and it is understood that all the other informa-
tions will be withdrawn.

SALISBURY PETTY SESSIONS, SEPT. 5.

A number of informations were presented here to-day
against women, and children, for entering the woods
ofthe men,
Eail of Pembroke, at Gravely, for the- puriposte of
gathering nuts, notwithstanding boards had been
forbidding the practice. The general plea of the paurtitelps
was, that they were distressed for want of work, and did
not know of the notice; but they all acknowledged them-
selves guilty of the offence. One was a person who
brought testimonials to the excellence of his character as a
servant, but being out of place, he thought no harm in
gathering nuts for sale. Another was a poor woman who
had done so, she said,all her life time, and " her forefathers
was our of employ, and his
for a hundred years back before her." A third was a

for his industry. The Magistrates said, that considering
the people were out of work, they could not severely visit
the offence, though they were bound in law to convict
the parties. They would, however, exercise the utmost
lenience, and therefore fine the parties only sixpence
"eh. Thee great • difficulty, howevef, arose from the
el, Pence of the information, which was in each case
moe Shillings.. The parties expressed , their inability
to Pity this sum : it was ordered that if the amount should
