SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS.

Rumours of various import, but no authentic
intelligence, have been circulated within these
two days, professing to be from the seat of war
in Bulgaria. It is said on one side, that Sliumla
has been taken—on the other, that the Russian;
were severely beaten in the attempt. In the ab-
sence of positive knowledge, which must arrive
before much more time elapses, there is nothing
su idle as gratuitous guess-work. The wise thing

British t
Turkey is accomplished, and Russia superadding,
as undoubtedly she will do, if not prevented, a
great maritime dominion to her already enormous
power. We are far from desiring that under
the name of a precautionary or conservative
policy, any random enterprise should be got up by
England, or recommended by these who, in re-
lation to Russia, are the natural friends of Ene-
land. It would be ruinous to do any thing hint
prepare for events, until we shall have matured
those alliances, and combined those plans, by
the steady maintenance and pursuit of which
only we can expect a fair issue to our efforts
for the independence and repose of Europe.
But neither do we concur with those coun-
sellors, who bid Great Britain fall asleep, and
leave it to other nations to rouse her, on
Pretence that the transfer of the whole Turkish
territory to the giant hand of Russia, is " a
matter which more concerns" then: than it
does the interests of this commercial empire. In
the first place, we conceive the assumption, thus
quietly made as the basis and justification of a
system of indifference on the part of England,
to be, of all others, the most untenable. If the
aggrandisement of Russia concerns Austria, and
France, and Prussia, and Holland, more than
this country, the meaning of the proposition
must be, that the conquest of Turkey would
menace these states with some injury more se-
rious than any that England need apprehend.--
Now that is the precise allegation which we en-
tirely dissent from, We are of opinion that the
danger to Great Britain would be more imme-
diate and more extensive than any that France,
or even Austria herself, could incur from the
march of Russia to the Hellespont. Countries
with which foreign commerce is but a secondary
interest have little to fear from a state like
Russia, but invasion. Can she invade France ?
No ; or inflict upon her commerce any mischief
essentially enfeebling to the sources of French
greatness and prosperity ?—Unquestionably not.
Russia may cover the Levant and INtediterraneari
with squadrons equipped in the dock-yard of
Constantinople,—she may Interdict the approach
of French merchantmen to the shores of Asia
Minor, of Greece., or Egypt,—but unless she
can embark 30:,:1,000 men to effect an inva-
sion of the southern provinces of France, or to
make e, lastin-
g conquest of Italy, the general
safe-4 and welfare of the French nation would
he but slightly affected by the maritime prowess
of Russia. So, again, if the high or low con-
dition of her commercial interest be to France,
as compared with England, of little moment, to
such a state as A ustria it would be not worth
half so much. The Austrian empire would
have no ground of alarm, and could be alive to
no sense of evil, but from military invasion on a
most unwieldy scale. But is it so with Great
Britain, whose life blood is commerce, whose
prosperity is more vulnerable by a dozen custom-
house officers than that of France or Austria by
50,000 seamen ? Why, the free navigation
and commerce of the Mediterranean, the Archi-
pelago, the Adriatic, and the Euxine, are worth
millions every year to Great Britain. With the
exception of the northern extremity of the
Euxine, these seas are all now inaccessible to
Russian tariffs, little familiar with the flag of
Russia, and with her products only through the
flags of other Powers, principally of England
herself. If Malta and the lonian Isles lee con,
.sidered indispensable securities to our trao,e with
the East of Europe, is England less iraerested
than states which have inferior commerce, or
which have possessions less dependent for sub-
sistence or supplies by sea, has England, we say,
an interest inferior to that of countries which can
dread nothing but invasion only, in maintaining
the freedom of the east of Europe and of its
watees? If Great Britain, therefore, be in the
front of the peril, so ought she in the measures
of defence. The question is not whether she
ought or ought not "to entice" the continental
nations to join in a common system of self-
defence against a common danger, but, seeing
that those nations, we particularize France and
Austria, are more ready to act than we are to
" entice" them, whether, by an appearance of
stolid apathy, or utter heedlessness about the
course of 'Russian conquest, we discourage
neighbouring States from seeking our alliance,
and suffer the ill-judging but credulous world—
abroad, and, what is worse, at home, to charge
ne with' impotence and degeneracy. If the tone
of public spirit amongst ourselves be lowei ed, it
is a positive calamity to the nation. Unless it
be a matter of necessity, that is, a necessity
arising from considerations of safety and of
. honour, let the Government not think of war.
If, on the other hand, the necessity exist, it is
wretched weakness to shrink from the conse-
'
' queld exertion, because of its supposed mafeni-
tude and difficulties.—Times.

dinner. The grounds of this invitation were as
becoming to its authors, as
.were to Mr. Tennv-
sou those on which he declined the public dis-
tinction proposed to him. This gentleman had,
as is well known throughout the country, exerted
himself during the last session of Parliament,
Ilri igh highly 'Tennysonr esec
with exemplary spirit,. perseverance, and ability,
to obtain for the enlightened and
opulent town
of Birmingham the right of
representation in
th© nouse of Commons, on the expected and
well-merited disfranchisement
of a notorious bo-
rough. Although the attempt failed, the citi-
zens of Birmingham were not the less sensible
of the value of the prize which had almost fallen
to them, orofobligations .
the which they ha',l
incurred to their
advocate. The objection, we
remember, used to be, when the transfer of a
forfeited franchise was suggested in favour of
an Iy
Aarge portion of the population, that the
Parties so favoured had no ambition to enjoy it.
That can no !anger, in the case of Birming-
ham, or Manchester, or Leeds, or Sheffield, or
any other great seat of manufacturing skill
and capital, be affirmed. .I he business of
these places has
become so extensive and so
complicated—their connexion with the general
interests of the Bluish Empire, and of com-
merce in every quarter of the world, has become
so close, requires such vigilant attention, and
has given rise to questions of such delicacy

A pamphlet printed in Edinburgh on the
subject of the Catholic Securities, is well de-
serving of attention at the present moment. Its
title is " A Letter to his Grace the Duke of
Wellington respecting the Securities necessary
owards Emancipation, by a Scotch Catholic."
We are of the number of those who think the
only effectual securities from the Catholics are to
be found in the attachment which all inen must
have to the state under which they enjoy security
of person and property, and equality of rights.,
Any other security is a chimera. The writer of
this pamphlet very justly observes, " the truth
seems to be, that although securities are wished,
your Grace knows not what to demand. Your
Grace is not singular in that respect ; for all who
have been connected with Government, as well
friends as foes of the measure, since the agita-
tion of the question, have invariably desired se-
curities, but knew not what to ask ; whilst in the
meantime the Catholic body have, after every de-
eat, assumed still higher ground. This inde-
cision has created the very danger wished to be •
gearded against. The Catholic body has waxed
powerful—the increase of its population is great
—and the extension of the Catholic faith is
equally remarkable. If, as I suspect, these were
and are the objects which securities are meant
to provide against, I may observe, that they will
never be realised. Proscription has already been
tried without effect. Proselytising Societies have
also failed. Nay, more, these very measures have
produced a re-action no less singular than ad-
vantageous to the Irish Catholics. They have
in consequence acquired the co-operation of all
that is patriotic in Ireland, Episcopalians as well
as Dissenters. Nay, the discontented have also
joined their ranks; whilst the dissemination is
proceeding in the same proportion." , Accord-
ing to this Scotch Catholic, the influence of the ►
Pope in Ireland amounts to nothing, whilst in
England and Scotland it is very considerable.
People are not generally aware of the progress of
Catholicism of late years in this island.
" Here," he says, " the Pope individually pos-
sesses that influence which, in Ireland, is exelit,
sively vested in the Hierarchy; and when it is con-
sidered that Papal influence is silently but uncle-
extending itself in Great
_Britain, it is
viatingly
obvious that you must either attack his Holi-
ness, or restrict his power. The first, I doubt,
is an impossible. measure ; and therefore I call
upon your Grace, as the director of his Majesty's
Councils, to arrest that systematic accumulation
of foreign power which at present is not only in-
jurious to Roman Catholics, but which may tit_
timately be equally so to Protestants. The his-
tory of Scotch Catholicism is sufficiently instruc-
tive .on this point. At the completion of the
Reformation,it is believed that there were not
more than three or at most four Catholic Cler-
gymen in Scotland, utterly
.destitute and house-
less amid the wre.cles of their Church splendour,
and dragging out a precarious and persecuted
existence among the mansions of the few mem-
hers of the Aristocracy who adhered to the reli-
gion of their ancestors. At present there are
nearly a hundred Catholic Priests in Scotland.
After the dissolution of the ancient hierarchy,
not a chapel was left for the administration of our
religion. Within the last thirty years, a new Ca-
tholic Chapel has been almost annually erected,
in addition to those previously existing. And in-
stead of the dependence of our Clergy for a resi-
dence in the household of the wealthier Catholics,
appropriate dwellings have been erected for them.
The state of our population at the end of Ow
16th century cannot now,be ascertained. Thirty
years ago, it is understood not to have exceeded
40,000 ; but at this moment it is certain that the
Catholic population of Scotland is upward? of
120,00 D, notwithstanding very extensive . emi-
grations of the Highlanders to Canada." At the
Revolution King William hesitated long whether
Episcopacy or Presbytery should be established.
Though it was contended by many Episcopal
Writers, that, except in the West of Scotland,
the Episcopalians were more numerous than the
Presbyterians, there can be little doubt that the
Presbyterians were the majority. But the Epis-
copalians were numerous ; and to thiS day three-
fourths of the land belong to Episcopalians.
yet the whole number does not exceed

;or Judges to infringe upon the province of
Juries ; but a still greater evil has of late years
sprung up, in the Bar doing the same thing. It
is bad enough to see Learned Gentlemen, after
pocketing their fees, throwing up their briefs, and
declaring they have no case. Sometimes in cri-
minal cases we find the Counsel for the prose-
cution declining " to trouble the Court or Jury,"
because be does not find from his brief that he
will be able to procure a - conviction ; and for
this he is sometimes complimented on the score
of his good judgment and discretion, though it
be manifestly in the teeth of the finding, of a
Grand Jury, who have said the reverse. In
some cases Counsel take upon themselves to fix
the amount of damages, though that the Jury,
in the very next case, perhaps, are told is their
peculiar province. And if so, how can it be the
province of Counsel ? A case illustratinc, this
new piactice occurred the other day on one of the
Circuits. A young woman fell into a common
sewer, carelessly left open by some person
whose duty it was to have prevented it. She
brings her action for the injury, and griev-
ous injury she appeared to have sustained ;
and after the case is gone into, and every proof
offered on both sides, up starts the defendant's
Counsel, and says he will consent to a verdict
of 201. " With all my heart," responds the
Learned Gentlemen on the other side ; while
the Jury, who are thus made ciphers of, and
who were the sworn and proper judges of what
sum ought to he awarded to her, wonder by
what species of legal sophistry their oaths and
consiences can be so easy handed over to the
mere ipse dixit of others. They, too, are not
aware, though the Learned Gentlemen on both
sides probably are, that of this 201. not one
farthing would, in most cases, find its way into
.the pocket of the party to whom it is avowedly
awarded, but would most probably all be ab-
sorbea in what are called extra costs—so that
in such cases the only person served is the
attorney. Is there, we would ask, any thing
like justice in this ? Is it not, on the
contrary, a farce to swear Juries to give
a true verdict according to the evidence,
and tell them gravely that the amount of da-
mages is their peculiar province, if that pro-
vince is thus to be usurped by persons who are
doubly interested in the course they are thus
permitted to adopt ? It is, we are sorry to say,
part of a system of treating Juries lightly and ca-
valierly, which Juries themselves cannot too
warmly resist. The rights and liberties of every
one are involved in their freedom and indepen•
dence ; and Juries themselves ought to know
and feel that, in succumbing to a dictation of
this kind, they are, in fact, compromising their
oaths and the most valuable part of their duties.
At any rate, if such a
practice
i is to be alloys
to prevail, it is a reason
-ed
ra
c .
to law-suits ; for, if two persons are, after
all, to assess the damages, instead of twelve,
there seems no
reason why the expence of bring-
ing the twelve together need have been incurred.

Mr. John West, grocer, of Tottenham-court-road,
was crossing the road towards the Angel, when he
saw the deceased, who was in the act of ascending
the steps behind the coach, when it moved on a
short distance, and she fell as already described; he
then looked for the coachman, whom he found stand-
ing near the near-wheel horse, and not on the box;
he asked if any one was at the horses' heads when
the accident occurred ? and a gentlemen present in-
formed him there was not ; the coachman then said
he was at the horses' heads; witness observed, that
none of the porters assisted the unhappy young
female after she was hurt; he considered their con-
duct brutal, and in the highest degree censurable.
Thomas Crowder was on the spot, and saw the
ladder placed, and two or three passengers get on
the roof; saw the coachman dismount, and throw
the reins on the horses' backs; he was quite possi-
tive he did not give them to any one to hold; when
the accident happened he was gathering up the
reins, and was not on the box, as stated by the
porter; witness saw the deceased fall, and assisted
her, in cenjunction with others, to a surgeon.
Charles Robinson, the coachman, having been
cautioned by the Coroner not to say any thing that
might tend to criminate himself, was sworn, and
deposed that be was on the box, and had the reins
in his hands when the horses started, and that the
wheels could not have gone more than half round.
There being no further evidence, the Jury con-
sulted about half an hour, and then returned a verdict
of—" Accidental Death," with a deodand of 51. on
the coach and horses.

RYDE.—Arrivals still continue to be very nu-
merous, and although the weather is unsettled, this delight-
ful place presents a scene of gaiety unequalled by any
watering place round the coast. The Regatta will take
place on Thursday next, the subscriptions fOr which are
very liberal, and much interesting competition is anticipated.
—Hants Chronicle.

EXECUTION.—Another of those shocking
exhibitions, which however necessary in the way of exam-
ple, to the honour of this County but rarely happens within
it, took place on Thursday last at Bodmin. On the morn-
ing of that day, Tiromxs PRING, a young man of very
dissolute habits and character, aged only 21 years, who was
convicted at the late Assizes of no less than three burgla-
ries, paid the forfeit of his life to the offended laws of his
country. The history of this guilty man, as communi-
cated by himself to the Chaplain of the gaol, is a disgusting
recitation of crime from the commencement of his appren-
ticeship till hie aerival at maturity. He ascended the
scaffold about half-past ten, and'after remaining in prayer
with the Chaplain for a short time, the drop fell, and in a
few minutes the world closed on him for ever.— Cornwall
Gazette.

Mr. ROGER ENTWISTLE, who was very well
known to the inhabitants of Manchester as clerk of the
race course, had been recently confined to his room by in-
disposition, at a tavern in this town, where he lodged. life
had been attended by a nurse, who, in going up to her bed-
room about noon, on Saturday last, found his room deserted,
and the floor streaming with blood. The people of the
house, summoned by her cries, rushed up stairs, and in an-
other room found the unfortunate gentleman suspended
from the door by a handkerchief, and with his throat se-
vered by a frightful gash. The Coroner's Inquest, which
sat on Monday, has returned a verdict of insanity, which
seems to have been fully established by the evidence. The
cause of the derangement of the deceased is variously ac-
counted for ; being attributed by some to pecuniary diffi-
culties in which he is said to have been involved ; and by
others to the violence of the indisposition under which he
was labouring. The desperate determination of purpose
with which he accomplished his fatal object is very re-
markable ; for it appears that the wound iu his throat was
quite sufficient to have produced death ; but after that and
other frightful wounds had been inflicted, the deceased
walked out of the bedroom, tied the handkerchief round
his neck, and having knotted the ends of it together, and
having thrown them over the corner of the door of another
room, thus contrived to suspend himself. —Manchester
Gazette.

Sir RICHARD—What do you say? Ward—l never sold
him any thing in my life.
Scoultop—Yes, I bought them all of you. [Ward be-
came exceedingly pale and agitated.]
Sir Riciwto—Have you nothing more to say, Scoul-
top? Scoultop--Nothing; I bought them of Wurd, be-
lieving they were his property.
Ward—No, don't say so, I never sold them to you
[sighing deeply.]
Sir R. BIRNIE Scoultop)—You are the receiver of
these stolen goods from a receiver, which is as criminal as
receiving them from the thief. The evidence taken on
Thursday last against the prisoners was read over, and the
prisoners were ordered to be committed to Newgate.
Fryatt and Downes for stealing, and Ward and Scoultop,
alias Coulthorpe, for receiving the same, knowing, &c.
Sir IL BIRNIE said, that as only only one article, a tea-
pot, had been traced to the possession of Downes, he would,
under a recent Act of Parliament, accept of bail for his ap-
pearance to take his trial.
Scoultop—And cannot I be admitted to bail, Sir Richard?
Sir R. B:RNIE-If I take bail, I must have notice of it,
to enable me to inquire into its respectability.
Scoultop—Very well, Sir, I will give you notice of good
and respectable hail.
The prisoners were then removed from the bar.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.—Yesterday shortly be-
fore the closing of this office, two gentlemen entered it in
breathless haste, and applies! to Mr. ROE, the sitting Ma-
gistrate, for the assistance of some police officers, at the
house of the Dowager Lady Gresley, No. 54, Conduit-
street, Bond-street, where the whole of the male servants
belonging to her Ladyship's establishment were described
to be in a state of mutiny against her Ladyship's authority,
and that they not only held her Ladyship and all the other
female inmates of the house in durance, but they shut up
and barricadoed the whole place, so as to prevent the
egress of her Ladyship, or the access of any person from
without to her Ladyship's assistance ; and the applicants
added that they much feared the lives of the female inmates
were in danger, as the mutineers were seen armed with
pokers, &c., going from one part of the house to the other,
threatening destruction to all who should come in their way.
Her Ladyship, the applicants said, had sent for smiths and
other persons to break open the street-door and liberate
her, or admit her friends ; but the mutineers threatened
from within the lives of any persons who attempted to
force the door.

THAMES-OFFlCE.—Yesterday this office was much
crowded by persona engaged in the shipping interest and
steam navigation of the river Thames, in consequence of
an information being exhibited against Messrs Barnes and
Co., very opulent ship-owners, for plying a steam-ship,
the Sophia Jane, upon the Thames for passengers, the
masters end owners not being free of the Worshipful Com-
pany of Watermen.
The case was one of peculiar importance, because it in-
volves two points, namely—has this company the power
by their Act of destroying the property of individuals who
are licensed in the Custom-house, and not with then'; or
have they a right to demand that no person shall steer, or
cause to be steered, a steam-boat, who happens not to be
a freeman of their company.
Mr. Hyland, the barrister, attended as counsel for Mr.
Barnes; and Mr. James Thompsee, an attorney, appeared
to support the information, which was laid under the 37th
sect. of the Watermen's Act, at the instance of Peter Rule,
master of the Swiftsure, Gravesend steam-vessel, in oppo-
sition to which it would seem the Sophia Jane has, it is
considered, been started. The information charged, that
on the 19th inst., the defendant, Mr. Thomas Barnes, be-
ing owner and commander, did ply between London awl
Gravesend for passengers, without being duly licensed.
Mr. BRODERIP, at the outset of the proceeding-, asked
the defendant's counsel whether he would admit the fact of
not being licensed with the Watermen's Company?
Mr. Ryland said, in such a case he would admit nothing.
Mr. John Jonas, clerk to the master, wardens, and rulers
of the Watermen's Company, deposed, that the defendant
was not a freeman of that company. Being questioned as
to the possibility of the omission of the defendant's name in
the company's book, lie said an omission might by possibi-
lity occur, but it was not likely.
Mr. Ityland objected to this evidence as being conclusive
proof of the defendant's not being a freeman of the com-
pany. Mr. Shelton and other persons had access to the
entries, and ought to be called.
Mr. 13110DERIP said he would note the objection.
Mr. Ryland considered the objection in one degree final,
and called upon the Magistrate to decide at once.
Mr. BRODERIP replied, he would take a note of the ob-
jection for the present.
John Wright, a person in the employ of Captain Rule,
proved the offence laid in the information, having paid 2s.
6d. for his fare from London to Gravesend on the 20th inst.

Mr. Ryland asked the witness where be paid the money ?
He replied at Purfleet, which is in the county of Essex.
Mr. Baonsan. o,id it was within his jurisdiction, being
a Magistrate for the four counties of Essex, Kent, Surrey,
and Middlesex.

Mr. Ryland next required the limitations of the Com-
pany's Act.

The MAGISTRATE really did not well know how he
could interfere in such a matter ; the most he could advise
was to have a couple of police-officers in attendance to
preset the peace, and see that no violence or obstruction
was offered to smiths or any other person acting under the
authority of Lady Gresley, who certainly had a right to
have her own street-door broken open if her Ladyship
pleased.

Clements and Ballard were accordingly despatched to
the house of her Ladyship, where they found in front of it
about five hundred persons, as a mob, collected in the
street. Lady Gresley, and two young ladies on a visit
with her, were to be seen, in great alarm, at a windaw
of one of the upper rooms, while the drawing-room and
parlour-windows were entirely closed, and at the window
of the hall-passage appeared four fellows of furious aspect,
evidently in a state of intoxication, armed with pokers
and other offensive weapons, swearing destruction to any
one who should attempt to enter. Several smiths, by the
orders of Lady Gresley from the window, had been sent
for, and were now ready, sledges in hand, to demolish the
door, but for the threats of the armed mutineers. The
officers took their station on the steps of the street door, to
protect the smiths in the execution of Lady Cresley's or-
ders, and showing their staffs of office to those within,
warned them at their peril not to offer resistance. The
smiths now began their work of demolition, and ham-
mered away most lustily with their sledges, but so tho-
roUghly secured with iron bars was the door inside, that
it for a long time resisted every attempt to dislodge the
frame-work, until at length one huge fellow dealt a Val-

THE WEATHER AND THE CROPS. —'l,
have been at a loss to account for the extraordinary diu,eb-
ence in the state of the corn-markets in London and the
north of England. In Mark-lane, on Monday last, ilioehi
was an advance of full 6s. a quarter, and the prices af4
wheat are quoted at from 60s. to 82s. ; but at Wa'On'ely
en Friday, and at Leeds on Tuesday, there was scar,ce,,/
any advance, the prices being quoted as on the preet4l';
market-days, at from 545. to 68s. This contrast, We P°lo
find, arises from the difference in the harvest weather.
ep
the south and south-west of England the rain has be:
heavy and long-continued, while in the north, though, '.of,
have bad a good deal of gloom and rain, the idtervOi„
favourable weather have been for the last fortnight su
viently long to admit of the corn being reaped and beg--p
thered without much injury, and every day almost has bei-3,
a harvest day. We have before observed, that the or
markets are at present " weather-markets," and the fa l
we have now stated sufficiently prove that they are gretr'
influenced by local circumstances. After the harvest, 101,,ce,,t
will soon become equalized, and the probability ins
they will be higher, thuugh we hope not materially sot vif
tween the harvest of 1828 and 1829, than they were
all
tween the harvest of 1827 and 1828. There was A irnt
advance in the Wakefield market yesterday, but it dia:.;
exceed 2s. per quarter, and that only upon prime qualities
of wheat.—Leeds Mercury.

This was the case in support of the information.
Mr. Ryland argued at ►great length that this vessel was
not of that description contemplated as coming within the
meaning of any of the clauses of this Act. The Act of
Parliament, he contended, did not contemplate steam.
vessels ; and, consequently, this information must fail.
Mr. BALLANTINE said, the description of vessels named
increased in their denomination from a wherry to a lighter,
or other craft.

Mr. Ryland said the description ought to be given of the
" other craft." The description could never be construed
as extending to vessels of the character of the Sophia Jane.
Mr. 'I hompson said, the Lord Mayor had given his opi-
nion that the steam-vessels were included within the mean-
ing of this act.
Mr. Ryland—A very pretty opinion truly.—(Laughter.)
Mr. 13RODERIP said he had a very high respect for the
Lord Mayor, but he would not adopt any opinion of his
Lordship's delivered elsewhere : he would decide the case
on his own opinion open its legal points. The case he con-
sidered of immense importance, and he would reserve his
opinion for one week, in order to give time for the produc-
tion of the evidence as to the entry of freemen required by
the defendant's counsel ; but he would ask how came it
that this question was now first raised ?
Mr. Jonas said, some 15 years since the question had
been raised in the ease of the Margery steam-vessel.
The ease was then ordered to stand over for a week.
