FRET CH PAPERS.
(From the Gazetk't de France, Aug. 11.)
CONSTANTINOPLE, JUI".I 17.—The most vigor-
ous measures are taken het se to repulse the enemy;
but the people are discour. ged, and consider the
cause of the Sultan as despera.t,e-
The negotiations relative ro ,the Greek question
have formally lrgun, after the audience of Mr. Go r-
don. This Ambassador has alre.stly been able -to
convince himself that his mission is unavailing 3n
this respect, and that his efforts will have no none
success than those of his predecessors.
The Reis Effendi positively declared on the 14th,
that the protocol of the 22d of :March, and tbat of
the IRth of April, would never obtain the assent of
the Porte; and that no power on earth will be able
to make it recognize those stipulations. In a vvord,
it rejects, as it did before, the mediation of the
'Powers on this affair, and will not hear of the i ode-
pendence of Greece. It remains now to be :seen
what the Powers will do. It is thought they will
recognize Greece if the Porte persists in its refusal.
The Sultan would then be obliged to con-
sent, and it would probably make no objec-
tion to such a declaration if the new State were
limited to the Morea and the Cyclades. Urgent
orders have been sent to all the Pachas to hasten a
levy en masse, and to send the militia to the army
without delay. It is thought that the Sultan is
going to join the army. The greatest uneasiness
prevails.—Augsburg Gazelle.
BUCHAREST, JULY 19.—Evil-minded persons
spread a report that the plague rages in the army.
The great operations which are undertaken at this
moment sufficiently show the contrary. The sana-
tory state of the country, both on the right and left
bank of the Danube, is improved, and the official
lists prove that latterly only 16 patients have died
out of 400.

Most of the great people in this country send
their children for education to Paris. At this mo-
ment the foundation of a high school in this city is
in contemplation, and it seems that the plan has
been concerted with some French literati. If it be
carried into execution, it will be principally owing to
the lively interest which is taken in it by an august
personage.
General Geismar is drawing his forces together,
and will soon strike some great blow. The reserves,
under the command of Gen. Tolstoy, have reached
the banks of the Danube.—Gazelle & Augsburg.
PARIS, AUG. 10.—Several journals have an-
nounced that M. Rainneville was appointed Prefect
of the Police; this news was entirely destitute of
foundation.

M. Fryas.sinous, Bishop of ITermopolis, Chief
Almoner to the King, will have the presentation of
Ecclesiastics to the Archbishoprics,Bi•hoprics,&c.
M. Bourdeau is appointed First President of the
Royal Court of Limoges, in the room of M. Go-
gaugal, who sureeeds the late M. de C'ardonnel in
the Court of Cessation.

A Cabinet Council was held at the Foreign

The Emperor and Empre.ssa. AtmgiA arrived
at St. Petersburgh on the 28th July, aithp4;L:ll it
was reported by some Parisian correspondents
that the Emperor had been taken ciddenly ill at
a village in Bessarabia about the same period
An ticle,
dated Scullin, says that a division
Ar
of Turkisli cavalry had received orders to march
from Bel-rade towards Silistria, and that the

Turks are arming with all speed, though it is at the
same time admitted that the Russians must succeed.
There must Le some mistake in the report, that
the Turkish cavalry are going to Silistria, now that
it is in possession of the Russians. Widdin is
a more likely destination :

ST. PETERSBURCH, JULY 29.—The inhabitants of this
city were yesterday rejoiced by the happy arrival of their
Majesties the Emperor and Empress. Though the weather
was not very fine, the whole city was in motion ; all the
streets leading to the Kasan cathedral were filled with bril-
liant equipages, and the square before the cathedral tv:is
crowded with spectators, who greeted their Majesties as
soon as they were in sight with Vie loudest acclamations.
Their Majesties were received at the door of the cathedral
by the Metropolitan and all the Clergy, and after prayers
a salute of artillery, and the ringing of all the bells,
announced the thanksgivings fur the glorious and im-
port int victory gained by Count Paskewitsch over the Se-
raskier of Erzeroum on the 2d July. After Divine • Ser-
vice their Majesties went to their country seat in the
island of Yelajin.
The trophies, consisting of 91 standards, taken from the
enemy, were paraded through the streets yesterday with the
usual ceremony, and the city was illuminated in the evening.
ODESSA, JULY 22.—The English brig Helen has ar-
rived in this port in 16 days from Constantinople, n ith a
cargo of suzar, coffee, aneother goods.
_ _ .

JULY 24.—A division of Turkish cavalry has
received orders to march ft om Belgrade' towards Silistria.
Six thousand men are on their march from Bosnia, to re-
inforce the army of the Grand Viz;er. The militia are
assembling in all quarters, and it seems as if the war were
just going to begin in earnest. It is not doubted that the
Russians will prevail, but their victory will not be easily
bought, for fanaticism and national hatred enhance the
activity of all the Mussuhnen. It is said, however, that
great uneasiness prevails in the capital, and it is feared
that the Sultan may be exposed to personal danger if the
enemy should approach the city. In the provinces every
thing is tranquil ; and what has been reported in the
public journals of tumults, attended with bloodshed and
executions, in Servia, is to be ranked with the fables that
are daily circulated respecting the affairs of the East. ,

At a late hour this afternoon, we received the
following details of the battle gained by General
PASKEWITSCII over the Turks in Asia. If
the General may be believed, the loss to the
Turks must prove very disastrous i❑ its future

consequences
BERLIN, Auc. B.—The Prussian State Gazette of
this date is almost wholly filled by the report sent by Ge-
neral Paskewitsch to the Emperor of Russia, with the
details of the victory over the Seraskier of Erzeroum, who
hid 30,000 men under his command, and over Haggi
Pacha, who had 20,000 men. This latter corps, whose
commander is celebrated throughout Asiatic Turkey, was
totally defeated and dispersed.
The General having convinced himself that it was im-
po,sible to attack with any prospect of success the camp
of Ilaggi Pacha, either in front or on the reft wing, where
it was protected by steep mountains covered with snow,
and a deep ravine overgrown with thick wood, resolved to
turn the camp, notwithstanding the numerous difficulties
and the danger to which he would be exposed with a train
of 3,000 wageons, as he would be cut off with his commu-
nication with Kars, having the Turkish camp only eight
wersts from his line of operations, from which he was
obliged to go thirty wersts ; besides, he had a march
of fifty wersts to make through the worst roads, and to
pass two steep ranges of mountains covered with snow
and ieteieceted with deep ravines, and all this in the pre-
senee of an enemy, threatening both the flank and rear; but
the absolute necessity of undertaking something against
the enemy, left him, as he says, no choice. From the
details given by the General, it appears that he had taken
every possible precaution which the superior numbers of
the enemy rendered necessary. The Turks, he says,
fought with incredible boldness.' Their sharpshooters
penetrated every moment into the Russian ranks, who
were pbliged to repulse them with the bayonet. Nay,
they even advanced as far as the battalions drawn up in
squares, and only a well-directed fire could oblige them to
retreat. By a successful manomvre the Russian General
divided the enemy's force, and drove-part to the steep
mountains and defiles on the left, and the others to the right.
This was on the left win of the Turks, On the right wing
the Russians encountered even greater resistance. The
General being informed that the Serasker had brought
30,000 men to the assistance of Haggi paella, whose
troops were now retiring to the camps, resolved iimne-
diately to attack the Seraskier, and prevent the junction of
the two corps. In this operation he was completely suc-
cessful. The enemy fled in the greatest disorder, and was
pursued 30 wersts, till nine p'elpek in the evening. The
whole camp of the Seraskier, all his artillery, ammuni-
tion, and provisions, fell into the hands of the Russians.
Thie attack on the Seraskier was indispensable to future
stfccess ; for, if that day bad been suffered to pass over, he
would liz,ve joined Flaggi Pacha, and the Russians would
have been exposed to the attacks of an poetry ef $O,OOO
men on three sides—namely, in the front, rear, and flank.
The Seraskier being totally defeated, it was found pos-
sible to attack Haggi Pacha with some prospect of suc-
cess, ae the Russian army had occupied a -.valley
in the 'enemy's -rear. Still a %marl! of fifteen wersts
through a Most difficult country was tp be effected before
they could reach the Turkish camp ;,-,-howeyer the Gene-
ral set out at day-britak v, ith all his troops and artillery,
and at nine in the morning occupied the eminences in the
rear of llaggi's camp, where the General drew up his men
in order of battle, at a distance of three wersts. His posi-
, tioa wes extremely advantageous, being covered on both
sides by impenetrable 441!...5. The Turks leaving all their
tents in the camp, to the number of 2,0 p, drew up in or-
der of battle in an equal advantageous position. A pri-
soner, taken by the Cossacks; having informed the Rus-
sian General that the defeat of the Seraskier was not known
in Haggi's camp, set him at liberty, and sent him back to
inform the Pacha,
" The movement by which ! had so rapidly got
into the enemy's rear, the sight of our victo-
rious troops, who had cut off the communication
between the Turkish camp and Etzeroum, and the news
of the Seraskier's defeat dept iced Haggi niche of every
hope, and he sent back the same prisoner to say he was
ready to sorreoder with his whole army, I returned for
answer, that I should expect his troops to lay down their
arms, and come to meet me ; but before nay answer
reached him, the Turks had renewed their fire, and I
perceived a great confusion on their left wing; on which
I led your Majesty's troops, in five columns, against the
enemy. The first column rushed upon the enemy's camp,
when the enemy, seized with terror, took flight, princi-
pally towaids the mountains and forests, where our ca-
valry and infantry could not penetrate. The second co-
lumn it was that took Haggi Pacha, with all his officers
and suite."
In summing up the result of these battles, General
Pasketvitsch states that the loss of the enemy in killed
is at least e,pop. The whole of the remainder of the two

corp,, is dispersed in varigus directions.
The enemy did not save a single cannon, all his ammu-
nition and provisions fell into the hands of the conquorcrs.
In Midsehingerd above 1,200 chetwerts of corn, and a
large quantity of powder, were found.
These memorable battles have completely decided the
fate of the Tgrkk); army. Within 24 hours, and after a
march of 55 wersts, your Majesty's troops have defeated
two numerous armies, commanded by oii;cers of the highest
rank, one of whom was made prisoner, taken two camps,
one of which was entrenched, the whole artillery, consist-
ing ,q 1 cannon, all their ammunition and provisions, and
19 stant;oll_, 4F47.!!0ve 1,500 prisoners. The loss on our
side is not yet atwi:rai.eiy -i.sceT:tained, because the troops
are dispersed in different diredionS ; 44: z,:-;y r?..te? howeyn
it does not exued 100 men in killed and ivoundEd..'?
The report concludes with a warm enlogium on the
Mussul:nen regiments under his command.

Advices from Toulon, of the 2d august, an-
Pounce th,e, arriyal of the brirof-war Stork,
bearing despatches feom the, Trench squadron
blockading Algiers. It was reported that the
DEY demanded an indemnity of 6,000,000
francs, buy th:!t 3,000,0(k) had been offered by
the French Commander and refused. If it be
really true that the nench have submitted to
offer an indemnity at all, we think the Dey of
ALGIERS is mire right in treating them with

indignity. The majesty of France ought surely
to be above such disgraceful humiliation, for the
French may depend on it, that while they tolerate
the arrogance of the DEY, he will be sure to
exercise it.

Sincapore Papers, of the 'l2th March, an-
nounce the arrival on the 11th of the Governor-
General of India, Lord W. BENTINCK, in the
Enterprize steamer. His Lordship's health was
entirely re-established.

If we may credit the news from Constantino-
ple the Turks are as obstinate as ever, being re-
solved to concede nothing either to friend or foe.
But the SULTAN Will find that endurance has
its limits as well as pride.

Letters from Saragossa of the Ist inst. state
that numerous arrests had taken place there, at
the command of ihe Count D'ESPAGNE. Col.
VILLA, one of the ex-deputies of the Cortes, a
man much respected, was among the number.
Several executions had taken place at Barcelona.

The care of JOHN HALL, which was given a
few days since at length in our Police Office
Report, came on yesterday for a rehearing, at
the Mansion-house, before the LORD MAYOR.
The case, as our readers cannot fail to have al-
teady perceived, is one of considerable hardship,
and to which no adequate remedy can be applied,
till an alteration, searching and extensive in its
character, be made in the Act for Estreating
Recognizances, which, as a Morning Contem-
porary observes, is an Act for the Collection
of Fees, and not for the benefit of the
public. In the course of discussion on this
question, Mr. RICHARDSON observed, that he
had enquired, as the LORD MAYOR had di-
rected him, into the cause of the charge of the
two shillings discount which HALL had to pay
to a person upon receiving an order for the pay-
ment of the expenses of prosecuting, and learned
that a person named HOARE had received this
discount money, a thing not sanctioned at all by
the regulations of the Court, and that the She-
riff's yeomen were the introducers of prosecutors
and witnesses to the discounters, with whom
they (the yeomen) shared in the profits. These
yeomen, instead of attending to their business at
times of trial, were usually acting as " touters"
to the discounters, and as on some days as many
as fifty trials took place, the poundage became
considerable. The LORD MAYOR'S reply to
this was, " he trusted that a very important re-
form would take place in his Mayoralty," and,
from the proofs we have already had of his
Lordship's good sense, firmness, and sagacity,
we have not the slightest doubt that such will be
the case.

By the Corn Report this morning, it appears
there is a farther advance in the duty on Foreign
Wheat, which is now fixed at 20s. Bd. per qr.
above last week's. Barley is also of a higher
duty, being now 153. 6d. per qr.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.)

• COURT OF CHANCERY.
IN Tun MATTER OF JODDRELL, A LUNATIC.

The LORD CHANCELLOR had ordered this to
stand in the paper to-day. He had seen the Master,
and had had a conversation with him upon it. He
had informed his Lordship that the inquiry in the
matter before him had proceeded to a certain point,
nothing was done formally before him, nor had he
been pressed for his report; he had not, therefore,
made his report, but was ready at any time to do so
to the extent to which the proceedings had gone.
According to the investigation he had made, his
impression was, that it was a fit subject for thorough
inquiry; what the result of that would be it was
impossible to say. The proper course under these
circumstances now to be adopted in the opinion of
the Court was, that Master Eaden should proceed
with the inquiry, to ascertain whether the money
alleged to have been expended, had been beneficially
laid out for the lunatic; the investigation to be
conducted in the most liberal manner, which would
be as well for the comfort of the lunatic as
for the credit and honour of the family.

EX-PARTE ROMAN, IN THE MATTER OF RAINES, A

BANKRUPT.

Three or four Counsel on each side were arrayed
to proceed with their arguments in this matter,
which it was expected would occupy the greater
part of the day ; but after
Mr. ROSE, for the petitioners, had Li part opened
the petition,
The LORD CHANcELLoainterrupted him to say,

that he found this matter had been not only heard as
an appeal, at great length, before Lord Eldon, but
that it had then been disposed of by having, on the
19th of August, 1822, been directed to stand over,
that the petitioners might have the opportunity of
electing whether they 'would take an issue, try an ac-
tion, or proceed to a reference. Since that period
nothing whatever had been done, until now, when
the matter was attempted to be forced on as if it
bad been an appeal regularly in the paper.
Mr. RosE 'endeavoured to persuade the Court
to believe that his clients had been ignorant that
such an order had been made.
Mr. IlottNE contra declared that • the gentlemen
had intentionally lain by ever since 1822, for the
purpose of taking the chance of the death of some
of the witnesses. Two of them had died, and their
evidence therefore on a trial could not now be had.
It was the duty of the petitioners to have got the
order drawn, and acted upon long ago. The Court
could only now dismiss the petition with costs.
The LORD CHANCELLOR concurred in the last
observation, and dismissed the petition accordingly
with costs.
