being asked if be believed in the Old Testament,
he answered, " I do not." He said, however, he
believed iii GPd, and in a future state of rewards
and punishments under the dispensation of God ;
he also answered, " I believe in a just God, as
the Governor of the Universe, and in his im-
partial distribution of justice consequent upon

you -believe that God will punish you, if you
state that which is false ?" he answered, " I do."
The inclination of Commissioner Law seemed
to be to receive his oath, but the case was ordered
to stand over till this day. The oaths of foreign
Infidels, Brahinins and Chinese, it was ad-
mitted, were received in our Courts of Justice,
but the difficulty. was with. respect to a British
Infidel. 1 he doctrine of the 'Courts. of Law
respecting the reception of oaths; involves an
inquiry into the theology of every nation from
the individuals of which oaths are exacted before
our tribunals. The principle by.-which they are
guided as to the acceptance or rejection of the
oath, would seem to be the belief of the individual
offering himself to be sworn in the existence of a
future state of rewards and punishments, and that
falsehood on oath will be punished hereafter.
But, then, how are we to ascertain whether the
individual offering himself to be sworn really en-
tertains such a belief? Here our Courts are in
a state of the utmost helplessness. A Brahmin's
oath, for instance, is taken, but how do they
know that a Brahmin really believes that perjury
will be 'punished hereafter ? It appears that
there are a number of cases in which a Brahmin
is expressly allowed, and even enjoined to perjure
himself. According to Halhed (Code of
Gentoo Laws), " Whenever' a true evidence
would deprive a man of his life, its that case;
if a false testimonywould be the preservation of his
life, it is allowable to give such false testimony ;
and for ablution of the ;guilt of false witnesses,
he shall perform the Poojeeh Sereshtee but to
him who has murdered a Brahmin or slain a cow,
or who, being 'of the Brahmin tribe, has drun-
ken wine,. or has committed any of these particu-
larly flagrant offences, it is not allowed to give false
witness in preservation of his life.
If a marriage for any person may be obtained by
false witness, such falsehood'may be told upon
the day of celebrating the marriage; if on that
day the marriage is liable to be incomplete for
avant of giving certain articles at that'time, if
three or four falsehoods be asserted, it does not
signify ; or if, on the day of marriage, a man
promises to give his daughter Many ornaments,
and is not able to give them, such falsehoods as
these, if told to promote a marriage,. are al-
lowable: If a man by the impulse offust tells
lies to a woman, or if his own life would other-
wise be lost, or all the goods of his house
spoiled, or if it is for the benefit of a Brahmin,
in such affairs falsehood is allowable." So
much -for Hindoos. Some of the' religions
which enjoin the belief in a future state of re-
wards and punishments, vary with respect to the
duration of future punishment, and with respect
to the objects. It is necessary to be acquainted
with religions in all their details, therefore to un-
derstand. the value dais oath in each. In those
religions, for instance, in which men are suppo-
sed to have souls and women none, the oath of
the woman would be of no value. What the
doctrine of the Jews may be respecting oaths,
we know not ; but if, as is laid down by some of'
the Rabbis, a Jew is bound to do as much mis-
chief as possible to those who are not of his re-
ligion, it becomes a question how far he may do
it through the. instrumentality of an oath. For
instance—L." From the stranger thou mayest take,
usury (Dent. '23, v. 22)." Respecting these
words R. Leviben Gerson writes thus :—" This.
command, that we shall take usury. from stran-
geras ii.-One of the 248 commands bwhich God
requires•to be kept by us, and that in such a
mustier that we should not only lend money to
strangers on usury, but we should also do them
as much issjury as we possibly can; for it is not
in our option to take or not take usury, but it is
a command of' God, and for this reason, because
they serve strange gods."—Ralbag, fol. 234.
Christ. Gerson in 1 halmude Judceorum, c. 23.
And the said Rabbi &lye, it is no sin to steal
from a Christian or Heathen.—Ralbag, fol. 89,
-Time security then which is derived from swearing
a foreigner according to his religion, is a very
loose sort of security . indeed. The English
Judge can never know, with any thing like
certainty, whether the very perjury to guard against
which he is anxious may not be a meritorious
instead of a blameable act, according to the
religion of the person sworn. With respect to
Englishmen, what is the security'? -The Courts
say that, to be entitled to swear, he must avow
his belief in a future state of rewards and punish-
ments. But the Courts have no means of ascer- I
seining whether a person really believes in a
future state of rewards and punishments ; and,
therefore, the only security they have for such
belief is the asseveration of the party about to be
sworn. If' a person, therefdre, who does not be-
lieve in a state of rewards and punishments says,
notwithstanding, that be does believe in such a
state, his oath must be taken. But the very de-
mand of the belief as a test involves the greatest
absurdity. The object is to ascertain, from the..
belief, whether the party swearing is likely to
swear what is true ; and the evidence as to the
belief itself, is the very party respecting the truth
.of whose statement the belief is to be the test.
If a man states that he believes in such or such
a creed, his oath will be taken ; it' he states that
he does not believe in it, his oath will not be
taken • though they have no more certainty that
an that he does not
believe believes in the creed t
believe in it, the
whole resting on his assevera-
tion. It is absurd in the extreme to ask a man
what he believes or' disbelieves, when the object
is to ascertain from his answer whether, if he
were sworn, he is likely to speak the truth; for
if the answer he gives is to be conclusive as to
his not swearing the truth, it is equally conclu-
sive against his not answering the truth. A man
wlsose oath affords no security that he 'will not
tell a falsehood; will, of course, have no hesita-
tion ' •
in_givi ng also a false statement as to his be-
lief. The test, therefore, is uselessin the per-
son who sessuld swear falsely ; for if he would
swear falsely, tie deuce is in it, if he would not
also state a falsehood in order to be sworn. The
test can only, therefore pfficacions in the case of'
men who have.a regard for truth, and who will
not give a false account of their belief. A-mene
dacious witness can be excluded by no contriv-
ance. Witi
I respect to those who Will. false-
hoods, the punishment for perjury is, the only
consideration likely to weigh with them. Mr.
Pollock observe, he le could measure the length
of that man's urns •
ence, who would swear by
an oath that lie had uo respect for." It can be

that fleet is opposed to those of the Turks and
Egyptians, instead of being looked on as inade-
quate, it will, to those who know any thing of
the composition of the latter, rather appear dis-
proportionably. large. Perhaps of all the nations
in Europe the Turks have the least pretensions
to seamanship. De Tott, in his gossipping me-
moirs, mentions one fact which, on such a ques-
tion, may stand for a thousand. When he was
in Turkey he visited one of their seventy-four's,
and found, to his surprise, that the vessel had no•
wheel, but was steered by hand by a tiller on the
lower deck ! So much for Turkish seamanship.
At that period they were ignorant that such
things as fire-ships were in existence ; and De
Tott describes, very humourously, their indigna-
tion—when the Russian Admiral despatched
two against their fleet—at the impudence of the
heretics, who, in two such paltry vessels, dared
to brave the fury of the true believers ; nor did
they awake from this fancy till their ships were
burning about their ears. As to the cock-boats
of the Egyptian Paella, one English man-of-war,
should they venture to withstand her in a double
reefed topsail breeze, would give a pretty account
of them. By sea, indeed, where hitherto the
miserably appointed fleets of the Greeks have
braved them, it would be worse than ridiculous
to look for any thing short of their annihilation,
should they attempt to stand the shock of an
encounter with the Allies. An article from
Trieste, which we give in our 'extracts, and which
may be supposed to speak the sentiments of the
Austrian Authorities, insinuates the necessity of
acting by land as -Well as sea. " If the Allies,"
says the writer, " would engage with any hope
of success, the Russian army must pass the
Pruth." We cannot see the necessity of such a
step, • in order to fulfil the conditions of the
treaty under which the Allies are acting. On
the contrary, such a step might not unjustly be
construed- into a violation of that article (the

signed to carry a reinforcement of troops to Ibra-

private information received by Smith and Forrester, two

by Morris, an officer of this establishment. The cloth, for
which the search-warrant was granted, was not found, but
the prisoner being a well-known receiver of stolen goods,
the officers felt justitied in seizing the various articles found
in his possession, and the result has proved that their sus-

The above design of transporting a fresh body
of troops to the Morea, sufficiently accounts for
the Ambassadors having, in the exercise of those
discretionary powers with which they are vested
by the treaty of the 6th of July, shortened the
time within which the answer of the Porte to
their Ultimatuin of the 16th ult. was to be re-
turned, to fifteen instead of thirty days. It is
•
evidently of importance,in giving fulfilment
to the articles of the Treaty, that no greater
impediments than those—which the present
situation of the parties creates, should, if pos-
sible., be allowed to interpose ; and there can
be no doubt that, a large additional body

ing, and their indisposition to treat would be
confirmed. In all our observations on the pro-
bable issues of the negotiations with Turkey, we
have carefully guarded against any misconception
of our conclusions, by admitting, that with re-
spect to the line of policy which the Sultan
might ultimately adopt, no positive argument
could be drawn from his. weakness or his wants,
because the conduct of a more civilized Court
would, under the given circumstances, supply no
rule applicable to the caprices and ignorance of
a barbarous despotism. As, however, the prin-
ciple of self-interest is generally as powerful with
the barbarian as . with the Greek, we did con-
clude that the Sultan—conscious of his inability
tocompete with Russia from without, and of the
smothered dissatisfaction, in consequence of his
late reforms, that prevails within his European
dominions—would, however disagreeable it
might be, make a virtue .of necessity, and give
up that with a good grace which could no longer
be retained in the face of such opposition as
England, France, and Russia, presented. We,
hOwever, miscalculated in attributing so . much
common sense to the Sublime Porte. From
the French Papers, which we received last night,
we learn • that the Turks have determined not
to assent, unless compelled, to any acknow-
ledgment of the ' Greeks, nor to recognise the
right of the Allies to interfere in any way to-
wards the settlement of their differences. On
the 30th of August, according to the Gazette
de Fiance of Sunday, the Dragomans of the
three Ambassadors waited on the Reis Effendi,
in order to receive from "him the required an-
swer to the note of the 16th, when they were
told, in very peremptory terms, that no answer
bilt that which had been given by the Porte in
it Manifesto would be returned. The Mani-
fsto, our readers are aware, denied in the most
ptpinted • terms the right of the Allies to inter-
fere in the treatment adopted by the Porte to-
wlards its rebellious subjects. - Such an answer,
therefore, Or rather such a denial of an answer,
nay be looked on as tantamount to daring the
bl'Hies to do their worst, The Ambassadors, the
a count adds, immediately met, in order to lay
fore the Divan the measures which, in the
elent of its persisting, the Allies would be
cempelled to adopt. As the communica-

little female,enceinte, Was charged with assaulting Richard
Paul Joddrell, Esq., by throwing her arms round his neck,
and kissing him, on Saturday, in Portland-place.
It is well known, that in consequence of age and infir-
mity, the person and property of this gentleman are placed
by the Court of Chancery under the care of a committee.
Mr. Robert Gower Smith is directed by Sir George Tur-
ton constantly to attend him.
Mr. Gower Smith stated, that on Saturday, when Mr.
Joddrell alighted from his carriage, at his. own -door, the
defendant took him by the hand, put her arms round his
neck, said, " How do you do, my dear Mr. Joddrell," and
kissed him, which conduct he considered likely to keep up
excitement in his mind, and increase his disorder.

sth), which expressly declares that 'the
Allies will not seek any augmentation of ter-
ritory, any exclusive influence, any commercial
advantage—an article which seems franied pre-
cisely to prevent that step which the Austrian
politician discovers to be inevitable. We do not
mean to deny that in the event of a prolonged
contest, contingencies may not arise, calling for
other measures than those which the Treaty of
the 6th of August prescribes, but such contin-,
gencies it is not necessary now to discuss, as
they must be the subject of specific arrange 7
meats. It seems more than probable, that the
Pacha of Egypt, if he do not throw off his alle-
giance
to the Porte altogether, will take advan-
tage of the dispute with the Allies, to withdraw
under the shelter of neutrality. It is impossible
that he ever should have conceived the possibility
of adding Greece to his present possessions, and
he has no: interest iu continuing the struggle
between her and then' common master. When '
the forces of the Pacha are withdrawn, the right
arm of the Turks will be cut off. Had it not
been for his co-operation, there is every
reason to believe that the Greeks 'would long
ere now have asserted their liberty ; and when
left alone with the Turks, they will even now,
in all probability, find themselves equal to the
task. We maintained, when the treaty between
the Allied Powers was first published, that the
proposal to keep up the appearance of submis-
sion, by the payment of a small tribute, while it
imposed no real hardship on the Greeks, might
very much contribute to smooth the way to ac-
commodation with the Turks. It ought to be
observed, however, that the resolutions of the'
latter have placed the Allies in a position,
wherein it may very fairly be the subject for de-
how far any such tribute should be
insisted so that the Greeks may really gain

the Porte. A maritime war with Turkey must
be carried on in the narrow •seas that wash her
capital. The people of this country have very
exaggerated notions of the defences of the pass
into the sea of Marmora, derived from the ex-
perience of Admiral Duckworth in 1806. But
his is by no means a case in point. The castle

He answered, formerly she had been there; and now
frequently passes and kisses her hand to Mr. Joddrell,
which produces irritation.
Sarah Spitz, a servant in the family, saw the defendant
pass the house twice on Saturday, in her master's absence,
and when he returned, she saw her catch him in her arms,
and kiss him.
`The defendant acknowledged that she took Mr. Joddrell
by the hand, and did not deny that she saluted him ; "and
he in return," said the defendant, ,4 exclaimed, God bless
you, my dear Mrs. Mills—l am obliged to you ;' but most
certainly I did' not put my arms round his neck."
Mr. RAwrixson told her it was not only an assault, but
a contempt of the Court of Chancery ; for which, if com-
plaint was made, the Lord Chancellor would commit her.
She knew well that her conduct tended to excite the feelings
of Mr. Joddrell, and increase his disorder. Being a single
woman, she could herself give security ; and therefore he
held her in the sum of 100/., not to molest Mr. Joddrell in
future, and to answer any charge that may be preferred
against her at the sessions.
