TEE LONDON JOURNALS.

DAILY EXTRACTS FROM THE MORNING PAPEIti.

July 26.

[MORNING POST.]
Private advices from Vienna assert, that the
Turkish troops had entered Jassy on the 2211 of
Jdne, after annihilating- every thing which op-
posed their progress. Other accounts from the
same quarter announce that executions had re-
commenced at Constantinople, and that the
Greeks and other Christians, particularly the
Armenians, were assassinated nig;it and day.
'uch impatience was manifested for the de-
cision of the Cabinet of St. Petersburg!' to pit an
end to those atrocities. Prince Ypsilanti is re-
presented as having retired within the AuFtrian ter-
riterics, in consequence of the serious reverse which
he had experienced. He had been followed by
many Greeks, and the local authoCties had been
instructed by the Austrian Govermnel:t to give a
most hospitable reception to the fugitives. The
intelligence from France itself is, as.usual, of less
importance. So much anxiety seems to have
been -Celt at Paris respecting the results of his
1111jesty's Coronation, that it -was deemed neces-
sary to use the: Telegraph to inform the Parisians
how it had passed.

[-MORNING lIERALII.]
It appears: that Smyrna has been totally or
nearly destroyed by the Turks. The Christians,
however, were enabled to escape on board the
different Vessels, lint with the sacrifice of their
fortunes. A private letter from Vienna, in the
Gazette de France, says the Turks occupied
Jassy on the 22d ultimo. The Austrian Ob,
server gave the same statement ten days sooner,
and fixed the occupation of the town on the
13th. The latter was 'certainly a falsehood. Of
the former we have yet no means of judging.
There Continues much doubt and darkness hang-
ing round the contest betwcen the Greeks and
Turks. The Augsburg Gazette of the 1 6th says,
that Ypsilanti, in his forlorn condition, had
taken refuge within the Austrian frontier; and
was received with the utmost hospitality and
kindness. It is not many days since we learned;
'from the Austrian Observer, that the strictest
orders were given to the Austrian cordon, that
no Greek should be allowed to pass the frontier.
,The difficulty in getting any thing near the truth
in this cause is, that the accounts pass through
media, by which they are exaggerated or per..
verted, as it suits the views of the parties.

[NEW TI Al

We yesterday abstained fro-m
any remark on
the case of Mary Arti Carlile, prOsecUted by the
Constitutional Association for the publication of
a work desCribed by the Learned JUdge who
presided as " a libel of the Most dangerous de-
scription ;" 'but the result of that trial, so far as
it has yet gone, demands some particular obser-
vation." It appears that of the Special jurymen
who ought to have attended, there was not a
stacient number present to try the cause. This
neglect of a most serious public duty has become
so fre'quent, that we fear what we can say of it
will avail but little. Still it is our duty to ap-
peal, in the most forcible way that we can, to
the consciences of the defaulters: No doubt
they wish to preserve their own property, the
morals of their children; and yet by a most cri-
minal and foolish abandonment of their duty,
they put to hazard those important interests;
and leave it to chance, or rather to the active
zeal of the radical incendiaries, to defeat the pur-
poses of justice. Blind and fatal as this conduct
is, ivelear there is but one effectual remedy for
it. Let a heavy fine be imposed on every Spe-
cial Juryman absenting himself without leave of
the Court :..and let that leave never be granted,
but on grounds of the most stringent necessity.
In consequence of the want of a sufficient num-
ber of Special Jurors, some Talestnen. were
named ; and among them one, who, as it after-
wards turned out, stood alone in defending Mary
Anne Carlile from punishment. We Shall not
say what we have heard of this indhid sal's con-
nexion with the radical faction/1 but the fact was,
that from four o'clock in the afternoon of Tues-
day till near one o'clock in the afternoon of
Wednesday, this man stood alone against the
majority, and finally against the whole of the
other's. After so lotig a period, it became a
matter of common humanity to relieve the Jury
froth further attendance, and the defendant's
Counsel having first signified his consent to the
dismissal of the Jury, a similar consent was given
by tire Counsel for the prosecution. Several
Papers have represented this as equivalent to a
verdict of acquittal. It had. no such effect.. It
simply Placed the culprit in the state in which she
stood before the Jury was impanelled; and it
will therefore remain for the Association to de-
teimirre whether, or under what circumstances the
proceedings are to be renewed.

{MORNING CHRONICLE.]
We confidently anticipated the result of the.
deliberation of the juryinjhe cage of the Consti-
tutional Association v. Mary Anne -Carlile. The
Liberty of the PIeSS has obtained a signal triumph
over the Bridge-street Association. We knew that
an unpacked English .TUry would never lend
themselves to the unworthy purposes of this body.'
We knew that every Englishman worthy of
the name, would indignantly repel an attempt
to fasten upOn him the odium of abetting an
Institution, of which it is eiflicult to say
whether' the object or the means resorted to
foi 'effecting it are most reprehensible, and which
would revive among us the inquisition; with all
its spies, familiars, &c. After the Jury had been
incloSred upwardS of nineteen hours, without hav-
ing come to an agreement, the counsel for the
proiecution applied to the counsel for the de-
fendant, for his consent to have it discharged,
and Mr. Cooper, "-thin-king it would be. Cruelty
to keep them- longer conlined;' gave his consent
accordingly. It was understOod -on Tuesday
evening that the number in favour of an acquittal
vas:then four. Yesterday forenoon it had in-
creased to live. This conversion • to sound prin-
ciples was, no doubt, the result of the warm de-

bates in whil.ll it is understood the Jury were
engaged, from the time of their being first in-
closed. Men may lend for a time a deaf ear to
reason, but in the long run it will prevail. We
have no doubt, that if Mr. Cooper had not con-
sewed to their discharge, every additional hour
would have added fo the number in favour of
acquittal, and that an unanimous verdict _would
soon have been obtained.--The best, thanks
of their country is due to the manly
and independent Englishmen who have made
this noble stand against this inroad on our liber-
ties, and trampled the Bridge-street Association
in the dust. It will be vain for it, after this de-
struction of what is deemed its strongest case,
to produce spies and informers in any Court of
Justice. They will be scouted wherever they
appear. No honest English Juryman will lend
an ear for a moment to the wretches, who, for
the sake of a miserable subsistence, may allow
themselves to become its instruments in this de-
grading work.
