LONDON.
SATURDAY EVENING, JULY 19, 1828.

The French Papers of Wednesday, and the
Qazette de France of Thursday, have been re-
ceived, but they contain no news of an authentic
character from the seat of war in the East of
turope.
An article from Odessa says that the Russian
army is in full march for the capital of the Otto-
man Empire, all which we knew before, but we
cannot help observing that their progress is unex-
Pectedly slow. The Turks, according to this
article, are to place their main hope upon
the position of Schumla, towards which they,
arc moving all their disposable forces.—
"the Russians, on the other hand, are to act
IT" a plan entirely different from any hitherto
°userved in wars with the PORTE, so that the
Turks must alter their plan of defence if they
hope effectually to resist the invaders. But all
this is mere speculation. NICHOLAS will adopt
the, best plans he can, and the Turks will no
goat exert themselves to the utmost in making
L4desperate resistance. The command of the
ek Sea gives the Russians great and unusual
ants es, if they know how to avail them-
Selvesof such a superiority.
It is said in a French Journal that the SUL-
TAN now accepts the mediation of France and
dngland. We question the fact, but have no
'calk that it must come to this at last.

Lisbon Gazettes to the 11th inst. inclusive
cave been received this morning ; but, as their
contents are dictated by the minions of the
Usurper MIGUEL, we are spared the trouble of
aying them any other attention than merely
honouring them with a place in our columns, for
t,
curiosity- of our readers. To reason upon
such articles would be perfectly idle :
opoRTO, JULY 5.
We stated yesterday that the faithful inhabitants of the
113,roinees had taken up arms against the rebels, making
the most active war upon them, led by their respective
oeoerals the most excellent Gabriel Antonio Gaspar
Texeira D'Alvero da Costa, and Agostinha Luiz, and by

Colonel Raymundo, Governor of Viana. All these illue-
trioue persons, and others who took part in their heroic
deeds, deserve the higlies4 praise, since by remaining firm
in these districts they did great service to his Majesty Don
Miguel 1., and to the country in general, by encouraging
the people by their presence, and commanding some troops
of the line and militia, whom they collected, to put down
the revolutionists.

We also stated that many soldiers of the rebel army have
presented themselves in this city and other places to the
faithful army of his Majesty, to enjoy the pardon promised
them ; some officers have done the same. The number of
men of different corps who have presented themselves
amounts to SOO.

The division of the Royal army, commanded by Vis-
count de Peequiera, began to enter this city on the 3d,
and continued to arrive on the 4th, amidst the same de-
monstrations of joy with which the vanguard of the divi-
sion was received. The trows of the division immediately
marched towards Minho, with others who have already
advanced, in order to clear the country at once, and remove
those of the rebels who are dispersed.

On the entrance of the division, General Pesquiera ad-
dressed an Order of the Day to his troops, commending
the strict discipline they had observed hitherto, and re-
marking that their duty was a continuance of subordina-
tion and discipline, love to their Prince, and valour in the
field—and that the punishment of the wicked belonged to
the Magistrates, with the application of the laws.
Many Royalist families have returned to this city, with
various individuals who went in arms, again to enjoy the
pease and tranquillity which they could not find under
such extraordinary circumstances and illegal proceedings
of self-constituted authorities. The Governor of these
provinces, Sen. G. A. T. de Castro, and the Bishop of
the diocese, have returned ; and we expect the legitimate
authorities, who have retired, as we before stated.
LISBON, JULY 8.

If in a country enjoying tranquillity, as Portugal now
happily does, some foreigners animated by a revolutionary
spirit, and leagued with the irreconcileable enemies of the
throne and of the nation in which they reside, fearing to
be punished according to the laws of the country whose
hospitality they have returned with hdstility, seeing the ill
success of their insolent machinations, should require the
protection of their Government under captious pretences,
and concealing the true reason of their fears, for the laws
are clear and may visit them with its just punishment; and
if the Commander of a ship of their nation should invite
such persons to repair on board it, to carry them to their
own country, and save them from the just punishment
which they merit; who would judge such invitation
to be a declaration, or preliminary to a declaration of
war by the Sovereign of those individuals against
,the
Sovereign of the country in which such revolutionists en-
deavoured to assist factious and rebellious subjects ?
Nobody. Yet there are a few persons who
draw this inference from a notice posted up in
the square in the English language, to invite those who,
under such circumstances, might wish to make use of an
English ship at anchor in this port. Who can reckon the
number of fools, since Scripture itself says that it is in-
finite ?

LISBON, JULY 9.

The notice which we mentioned yesterday, as having
been posted up in the name of the Captain of the Pyramus,
English frigate, was taken down in the course of the day,
the impropriety of the measure having been perceived.
The Captain stated, that the Consul-General bad called a
meeting of the British merchants, to consider of the best
means, for those who desired it, to leave the country with
all their property, either in the ships of his Britannic Ma-
jesty, or some other manners announcing that he had
orders from his Government to assist the British subjects
as much as possible to this end.

In fact the English merchants having met, their answer
to this invitation was such as was to be expected from the
honour and probity by which they all are animated, who do
not belong to the small number of the agents of radicalism ;
they replied that they had no reason whatever to abandon
the country where, every apprehension haring vanished
that the civil war excited by the rebels would produce a
new explosion, tranquillity prevailed, peaceable foreigners
were protected with the usual hospitality, and where nei-
ther the British merchants nor any others had ever been
threatened with danger; it is therefore evident with what
impudence false accounts of the state of our nation were
sent to England by half a dozen detestable men, among
whom is an Esculapius, sent hither by the Jacobin or ra-
dical club at London; men paid to co-operate in disorder,
and to write the most absurd stories of the situation of our
country, thus misleading many who, too lightly believing
such impostures, have fallen into their snares.

The private accounts received from Lisbo
by the Echo steamer, after giving details of the
disposition of the Oporto Constitutional force,
represent them as disbanding, and the superior
officers endeavouring to effect their escape into
Spain. The former are coming over in num-
bers to take the oath of allegiance to I)on
MiGuEr., who has appointed seven persons each
from the Three Estates, who are directed to draw
up a Manifesto, addressed to the European
Powers, in which he undertakes to vouch for his
proving to his people his legitimate right to
the throne of Portugal. In the mean time, it is
mentioned, he intends to acknowledge the do.
mestic as well as foreign debt ; and at the period
of the promulgation of the above-mentioned do-
cument, it is understood he means to make known
the measures he has taken for the payments of the
interest due thereon, preparations for which he
is making, and is in treaty with individuals at
the present moment ; it is further added, it is
not unlikely lie may be successful in this import-
ant point. Don MIGUEL has issued, as King
of PORTUGAL, a document which may be con-
sidered as a partial amnesty to his 'opponents,
and seems to be desirous to conciliate the opi-
nions of the people.

American Papers to the 25th ult. have been
received at the North and South American
Coffee-house, but their contents are of no public
importance. In a New York Paper of the 24th
June there is evidently a mistake of one month in
the date of the departure of the Atlas from Rio Ja-
neiro, which is said to have taken place on the
Ist June. Now, as the vessel was 53 days on her
passage, it must have been the Ist May. Besides,
what further corroborates this is, that the Protest
of the Captain before the American Consul is
dated the 12th April. We are thus particular,
because the Atlas reports not only the cessation
of hostilities between Brazil and Buenos Ayres,
but says that a Brazilian Minister had actually
proceeded to sign the treaty of peace, or some-
thing to that effect. Our last accounts from
Rio come down to the 21st May, at which time
me
the hope o peace was as distant as ever.
f'

We again recommend to the perusal of the
public one of the newest pamphlets of the day,
" Legislation Gone Astray." It is on the subject
of the withdrawing of the One Pound Notes
from circulation, which the author, in a strain of
the happiest irony, contends will produce very
little good, but will greatly embarrass the Landed
and Commercial Interests of the country. The

subject is one upon which:there is so much dif-
ference of opinion, that it is hardly to be expected
the present work will convince the public that
it has been " led astray ;" but we venture to say,
that whatever people's opinions may be on this
controversial subject, it is impossible to read the
above pamphlet without being highly delighted
with the point, and humour, and irony of the
author. His seems to be the only pen that has
been wielded in defence of a most insulted class
of men—the Country Bankers ; and it has been
used with very great success.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER last
night moved the usual Sessional Addresses.—
The House of Commons will on Monday
adjourn over to Friday, on which day, or
Saturday, Parliament will be prorogued.

To those of our readers who may have visited
the romantic scenery of the Highlands of Scot-
land, we particularly request their attention
to an Advertisement in our front page,
suggesting the propriety of an improvement
in the Island Ness. A considerable sum has
already been subscribed, and little more is want-
ing to complete an undertaking which shall com-
bine ornament with utility in a very eminent de-
gree. To natives of the North resident in Lon-
don, we need not appeal, as a recollection of the
sweet scenes of' their youth will be the 'best
prompter to liberality. Subscriptions for this
Laudable. object will be received at the Sun
Office, and transmitted to the Local Committee.
Any description of the proposed improve-
ment and the romantic scenery would be super-
fluous, after the spirited account given in the Inver-
ness Courier. It is at once eloquent and just.
The undertaking entirely merits our approba-
tion and best wishes for its success.

THE FUNDS-(THIS DAY).

CITY, TwsLys o'CLocr.

Business in the English Funds continues limited
to-day, and the brokers seem almost solely employed
in making up accounts against Tuesday's settlement!
The general appearance of the market may be consi-
dered heavy, and prices have not been sustained
since the opening of the house. The first price of
Consols for Accaunt was 88,-1, but this remained for
a very short time, and they successively receded to
88* b and 881 sellers. At present the latter is the
price, and 88* for next account, rather sellers. An ex-
tensive sale has taken place in 31,per Cent. Re-
duced, at 954; New 4 per Cents. are likewise heavy.
The premium on India Bonds remains 105 6; and,
on Exchequer Bills, 72 3.
The arrival of a packet from Mexico, which sailed
from Vera Cruz the 31st May, has brought nothing
that is satisfactory to the Bond-holders, no dollars,
nor even preparation for sending any, appears to be
taking place. The dividends seem, therefore, to be
put off for an indefinite period, and the Bonds in this
predicament have fallen to 40i from 40-I, the first price.
Buenos Ayres Stock has receded a little to 431 41.
Colombian, 231 4. In Portuguese or Brazilian
Bonds there is nothing doing. Brazilian Mining
Shares are lower, 47 49 prem. Anglo Mexican,
65 2} discount.
In the City there are rumours of the ill-health of
the first character in the country, and this is the
reason given for the sudden return of the Lord High
Admiral to town.

We would refer our readers to the speeches of Mr.
Huskisson and Mr. Peel last night on the subject of
the American Tariff. There are some wholesome
truths stated, which it might be well for the Legis-
lators of the United States to take into their serious
and early consideration, for when once the stream of
our supplies of the coarse materials for our manufac-
tures is turned into another direction, it may be
difficult to bring the trade back—the observations
made on the subject are interesting.

TWO O'CLOCK.

This day has been observed as a holiday at the
Bank, being the anniversary of his Majesty's Co-
ronation. Consols have been alternately buyers and
sellers at 881 for Account : at present they are the
former, with little business; scarcely anything is
doing in the Foreign Funds. We regret to say we
cannot add any information relative to the Belfast
steamer.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.)

COURT OF CHANCERY.
IN RE BAXTER.

Mr. BARBER applied on behalf of a witness in
this matter, committed for not satisfactorily answer-
ing the Commissioners, for a writ of Habeas Corpus
to bring him up to be heard on his discharge.
His LORDSHIP ordered the writ to issue for
Thursday.
BEAUFORT V. DUCHESS OF ST. ALBAN'S.

Mr. PEMBERTON applied for leave to have a day
appointed for concluding the hearing of this part-
heard case, before the vacation.
His LORDSHIP could make no appointment to-
day, but would take care that it should be heard be-
fore the sittings broke up.
DOWN V. BURNS.

This was a motion to restrain proceedings upon an
action at law, which occupied the morning.

VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT.
The Court was occupied during the day with
a bankrupt petition.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH.
BOUCHER. V. KEEtik.

This, was an action for an assault and false im-
prisonment. The plaintiff was an old woman, and
sued in forma pauperis.
The defendant is a publican, living at Bartholo-
mew-close, and he stated that the plaintiff having
been noisy and riotous in the house, he gave her in
charge to a constable, who took her to the Compter.
The Constable said that the plaintiff walked to
the Compter withoutassistance, and that no violence
had been used.

Lord TENTERDEN, after hearing so much of the
case, recommended that a Juror should be with•
drawn, as it was impossible that the Jury could give
more than One Shilling damages.
.& Juror was accordingly withdrawn.
DALQLIESH V. LAWRINCR.

This was an action on a bill of exchange for 3471.
The bill was accepted by the defendant, and the de-
fence was, that there was a suit pending in Chan-
cery relative to the matter for which the bill was
drawn.

Lord TENTnRDEN thought there was no force in
the objection, and returned a verdict for the plaintiff.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, JULY IS.
CLARE V. BRENT, &C.

Mr. PLATT opened the pleadings. The declara-
tion stated that on the 12th July, 1826, the de-
fendants, as directors of the East Kent and Canter-
bury Economic Fire Assurance Association, effected
a policy of insurance upon a house and property be-
lonoing to the plaintiff; that that assurance was
subject to several conditions—among others, that all
persons sustaining loss by fire should render to the
Association as quickly as possible, as particular an ac-
count of the value of the property destroyed as the
nature of the case would admit. And again, that if
any person should render a false account of the property
destroyed, with a view to defraud the Association,
he should forfeit all claim to any remuneration
from it. The plaintiff then alleged that he had per-
formed these conditions, but that the defendants
had not. The defendants, in addition to the plea of
the general issue, pleaded several special pleas of
justification, the most material of which were—that
the plaintiff had not rendered so good an account as
the nature of the case admitted, and that the ac-
count he had given was false and erroneous. Upon
these pleas issue was joined.
Mr. Sergeant TAnDY, who was also assisted by
Mr. Sergeant WILDE, stated, that the plaintiff was
a respectable linen-draper, who in 1823 had esta-
blished himself in business at Sheerness. At that
time he insured his property at one of the fire as-
surance
offices in London; but as the company of
which defendants were the directors, and which was
only recently established, offered terms more fa-
vourable in point of premium to most others, the
plaintiff was induced to transfer his assurance from
the London office to that of the defendants.—
Some time after he had done so, on the 31st
of July, 1827, his house, furniture, and stock, were
entirely destroyed by fire, when, in pursuance of the
condition contained in his policy of insurance, the
plaintiff forwarded to the defendants as quickly as
possible, an estimate of his loss, which amounted in
the whole to 3,060/. In order to ascertain the cor-
rectness or incorrectness of this claim, the commis-
sioners appointed by the East Kent, &c. Association,
subjected the plaintiff to several examinations of
great length, and also had possession of all his books
which had been preserved from the fire, which they
had every opportunity of investigating. From these
they must have been satisfied that the plaintiff's
claim was a correct one; but when applied to by
him to remunerate him for his loss, they refused to
do so upon the ground that he had tendered a frau-
dulent account, and that he claimed for the value of
more property than had been actually destroyed ;
and that, upon the strength of the condition con-
tained in the policy, they insisted, was sufficient
to exempt them from making any remuneration
what e ver.

The conditions of the policy were then read, and
several witnesses were called, who stated that from
what they had seen of the stock and household fur-
niture in the plaintiff's house immediately before the
fire, they should conceive that it could not be worth
less than 3,0001. After evidence had been given of
these facts, and Mr. S. Cross had been heard in de-
fence, the Court was adjourned till to-morrow.
