PRUSSIAN AND HAMBURGH PAPERS.

ODESSA, MAY B.—The latest accounts from the
neighbourhood of Varna speak, indeed, of attacks
made by the Turks on 13Aldchik Jod Kcivarna, but
do not confirm the reports that have been circulated
of an action there, to the disadvantage of the
Russians.

At Varna and Sizeboli every thing is in the best
condition. The Russian garrison has fortified the
latter place very strongly, and placed batteries, rising
above each other on all the neighbouring heights.
Several ships have arrived here from Sizeboli, with
several hundred Bulgarians on board, who bad fled
to that place, because the whole surrounding country,
as far as Adrianople, is laid waste, arid there was
nothing left for their subsistence. The Russian fleet
is said to be in the Gulf of Sizeboli.

WARSAW, MAY 19.---His Majesty the Emperor
issued a decree on the 16th, at Jablonna, in which
he is pleased to order, that " to prevent any detri-
ment to the public service from a temporary inter-
ruption in the administration of the affairs of Poland,
the authority given by him to the Governors and to
the Administrative Council shall be executed by
them during his Majesty's stay in the kingdom."
Among the late arrivals are Count Nesselrode,
Prince Wolkonski, Adjutant-General Adlerberg;
Messrs. Sambrueski and Von Muller, Councillors of
State; and Dr. Crichton, Princesses Alexandria
Wolkonski and Unesow, and Countess Orlow and
Modena.

WARSAW, MAY 20.—The Emperor leaves this
city on the 2d in the evening, and the Empress on
the same day in the forenoon, and meet on the 4th
in the evening, at Sybellenert, ►whence they will re-
move the sth or Gth cf June. Their Majesties and
Imperial Highnesses are in good health.
It seems that the Diet will be assembled in
October this year.

Prince Phillip, of Hesse Hornburgh, has just ar-
rived.

ST. PETERSBURGH, MAY l6.—The Journals con-
tain the particulars of the journey of his Majesty to
Warsaw.

A letter from Gallacz, of 28th April, confirms
the arrival of the head-quarters in the town ; and
adds, " All the troops that have wintered on the
left bank of the Danube, are in motion to the points
where they are to be assembled; the roads are now
in pretty good order, but the overflowing of the
rivers still impedes the march of the columns."

The same letter contains an account of the land-
ing of the Turks in Little Wallachia, and their re-
pulse by the Russians, as ..ve have already related;
and gives an account of an attempt Made some days
later by the united flotillas of Silistria and Ruda.
clink, to bring over the detachment of General
Schilder, at the mouth of the Bota.

The Turks were repulsed, and the Russians had
only two men wounded.
To-day (16th May) the Emperor Peter 1., of
110 guns, was launched from the Admiralty Docks.

CONSTANTINOPLE, APRIL 25.—Above thirty
Austrian and Sardinian ships, with cargoes, are
here, waiting for firmans, which, as hostilities have
re-commenced, they will hardly obtain. An action,
of which no particulars are known, is said to have
taken place in the, Gulf of Bourgas. About 100
Russian prisoners arrived here yesterday, though
the Russian blockading squadron has been rein-
forced. Small vessels arrive 'daily with provisions,
so that there is no scarcity. On the Ilth, at five
and seven o'clock, we had two smart shocks of an
earthquake, by which Cavals and Xeres suffered
much. Lagos, Afano, and Adrianople, are said to

(Copy-) " April 29, 1829.
" DEAR DUKE OF LEINSTER,—I had the honour
to receive, on the 26th, a printed letter from Mr.
P. Mahoney, inviting me to join a Committee that
had been formed to carry into effect the objects of a
meeting held on the 16th, at which your Grace pre-
sided, and enclosing a copy of the Resolutions agreed
to at that meeting.
" I thought it necessary to decline the honour
thus proposed to me; and I think it but respectful
to your Grace, and to the other members of that
Committee, and due to myself, to explain briefly
she reasons for which I have refused to associate
myself on this occasion with so many distinguished
persons, with whom I have frequently had the gra-
tifieation and pride to find myself acting in union.
" If I rightly understand the second of the reso-
ltition3 above-mentioned, it expresses an opinion
that the Catholics are indebted to the Duke of Wel-
lington for the act of grace which they received in
703, and that their gratitude is due to his Grace,
in a greater degree than to any other individual, for
that final removal of their disabilities which they
have lately obtained. To that opinion I cannot
subscribe; and although it is always odious to op-
pose a tribute to the services of a distinguished in-
dividual—and to do so in this instance, and at this
moment, is peculiarly distasteful to me—l think it
right to state shortly to your Grace the grounds on
which I venture to dissent from it.

" That the Act of 1793 owed its origin, or its
adoption either in the Councils of the King or in
the Irish Parliament, to the Duke of Wellington, is
a proposition so new and to unsupported, that I
steed not labour to refute it; but that it should be
brought forward, for the first time, thus immediately
after his Grace has not only withdrawn from the
Roman Catholics the benefits of that Act, but also
deprived the Protestants of Ireland of a blessing
which he seems to have justly estimated in 1793,
seems so extraordinary as almost to excite a doubt
,whether a serious compliment is intended.
" The Duke of 'Wellington may have been the
indivithtal to bring in the Bill in question, and there-
fore may he said to have begun the work of Reli-
“iout peace;' but I know of no evidence that he
foresaw that the privileges then granted would lay
the ground work of Emancipation. Whether he did,
or did not, his Grace has, through his whole political
life, up to last January, endeavoured to resist or re-
tard that consequence.
" Although, perhaps, not apparently an active,
th Duke of Wellington has been no undistinguished
:neftieient opponent of the Catholic Question:
e %eight of his name (deservedly so great) mate-

Hy assisted to delay the concessions which have
length been yielded.
-6' In 1827 the Duke of Wellington alleged, as his
4oti for declining a seat in the Cabinet, -the dif-

enee of opinion between Mr. Canning and himself
she Catholic Question. He said it was not possible
for him to go into the Cabinet, when he knew that
the necessary result of his (Mr. Canning's) system
must be to bring the Government to that state
which he thou& (and his Majesty was supposed to
hink) one of peril.
" Had his Grace then been of the same opinion
with Mr. Canning, the difficulty of a divided Cabi•
net would unquestionably have been removed.
" I need not remind your Grace that the Duke of
Wellington's conduct remained unchanged during the
last Session, and (at least apparently) up to the
date of his letter .to Dr. Curtis: uor can I forget
that be withheld his acquiescence in this measure at
the rick of a civil war. He gave it not until the
country was on the verge of that calamity ; and
until concession had become as conducive to his
glory, and as necessary to the continuance of his
power, as it had long been to the welfare of the
country.

The rumour daily gains ground that the
Russians have sustained a very serious defeat.
A letter from Jassy, of the Bth May, says that
for two days previous, reports prevailed in that
quarter of some great disaster having befallen
the second corps of the Russian army, at
Tschenowady, where several general officers and
some thousand men were lost, besides the military
chest and eighteen pieces of artillery. The loss
of the Turks was also said to be immense. They
were commanded by ACEIMET PACHA. The
above is all report, but it serves to corroborate
the other accounts in circulation respecting the
defeat of the Russians.

The following are extracts from Frankfort ar,d
German Papers received this morning. It is
again stated that an engagement has taken place
in Little Wallachia, in which the Russians made

" It is always ungracious, and sometimes unwise,
to scrutinize severely the motives of public men,
when their actions are indisputably good. But I
must think, that an attempt like the present, to
award the only prize in the grand struggle for the
equalization of civil rights to one who joined not in
it, but as a foe, until the victory was all but won, is
a gross injustice to the other older, and after all,
truly successful Champion of the cause.
" Believe me, dear Duke of Leinster,

MUNICH, MAY 17.—The letters which are received
here from various parts of Greece continue to represent
the state of public affairs in that country as very satis-
factory. The Greeks saved from their almost desperate
situation, made easy with respect to their existence as a
nation, had Latterly displayed an energy of which they
were supposed to be no longer capable. The garrison of
the Acropolis consists of about 4,000 regular Turkish
troops from Asia Minor, who are more disposed to capi-
tulate than to fight, and to endure famine, with which
they are threatened. Many have been made pri-
soners, in small parties, by Greek Palicari, who
have landed from Salamis and Egina, to carry
off their flocks, and many have deserted to Egiva
and Napoli di Romania, where tl•ey live unmolested
among the Greeks, subsisting chiefly by their own labour.
GI erce looks almost like another country within these few
months,—new plantations are now where but lately there
was only ruins and desolation. Maize in particular is cul-
tivated, anti it may be said that this invaluable plant has
saved the Greeks front famine.

FRONTIERS Or WALLACHIA, MAY s.—There has been
an engagement in Little Wallachia, in which the Russians
have taken many prisoners, amongst whom is the notorious
Georgi or Gizza, who last year surprised in the night and
murdered the Bayard Poriennian and other officers. We
are in hourly expectation of the official bulletin of this
affair. We learn from Bucharest that by the advice of
the medical men there it has been resolved to move all the
hospitals out of the city, as it is apprehended that during
the summer epidemic diseases may arise.
FRANKFORT, MAY 24.—The Courier de Smyrne of

The Fifteenth Anniversary Festival of the
Artists' General Benevolent Institution was held
on Saturday last, when Lord GODERICH, the
Chairman, put forth some pertinent remarks on
the qualities of mind requisite to make the ac-
complished painter. He also stated that the
funds of the Society were in a highly prosper-
ous condition, and that the Fine Arts generally
were fast attaining their fitting level in society.
This last observation is no doubt the lite-
ral fact, but to a much greater extent would
sculpture, and more especially painting, flourish ;
a much higher intellectual elevation would
they attain, were there less fashion, less
exclusiveness, in the judgment of their pa-
trons. A painter, to climb to eminence in
the present day, must have some sprig of fashion—
some connoisseur who knows, or is supposed to
know, something about the matter, to back him.
Unassisted merit will achieve little or nothing.
It may make people stare, or even go the length
of making them hesitate ; but will neither make
them purchase, nor recommend. Few great
patrons have hardihood enough to speak well of
an unfriended artist. They have character to
lose, consistency to preserve, the dogmas of the
day to side with. These are points not
to be too readily given up. In fact, any
thing like independence in a painter is, under
the present l eginze, an inconvenient, not
to say, a dangerous faculty. He must either
believe in the doctrines of the Royal Academy,
or dissent from them ; if he dissent, ho suffers
the usual fate of all Dissenters ; if he be-
lieve, he must then wait the dropping off of some
Academican whom he has selected as his model,
when in due time, and on the orthodox principle
of succession, he may be allowed to drop into
his place. With literature the case is dif-
ferent. All the world reads now, and the
majority can judge for themselves. An
author, therefore, wants nothing more than a
clear stage and no favour, to enable him to fight
his way to fame. But the Fine Arts, we repeat,
are in the hands of an interested few, and it is
not fit that genius should be bound like a slave
to their triumphant chariot wheels.

The Hamburgh Steamer has just arrived, by

porter of Friday last, from which ‘w extract the

Following :

"We still contirue without any official inf,,rmation re-
specting the Turkish war ; and this silence necessarily con-
firms the reports lately in circulation. The following is
the most current version of the affair :—Count Diebeth
had sent a strong detachment over the Danube, with a view
to their advancing to the right bank of the Danube against
Silistria. Hulsheith Pacha, the Commander of Silistria,
being informed of this movement, determined on attacking
the enemy, the two corps met at Tehermova, where a san-
guinary action ensued, in which the Turks proved com-
pletely victorious, pursuing the Russians to the walls of
Hersova, taking a numher of prisoners. Many of the
Russians were drowned in the Danube."

they burnt with great fury, and fears were entertained
that they would communicate to the adjoining house, an
oil shop; but the prompt arrival of the engines, aided by
a plentiful supply of water, enabled the firemen to confine
the fire to Mr. CHRISTIE'S, whose house was entirely con-

Application was made on Saturday to admit the
defendant to bail, on the ground of insanity.
It will be recollected by our readers that APDon-
nel, was committed to prison from Mars lebone Police
Office for a violent attempt on the life of Lorenzo
Parodi, a dancing master, who was residing in his
neighbourhood, in the Regent's Park. It appeared
that the defendant sent a message by the prosecutor's
daughter that he wished to see the prosecutor, who
went to him. M'Donnel called him a rascal, and
snapped a pistol at him, but Parodi escaped. When
H. Stowell, the police-officer, went to take WPDon-
nel, the latter drew a pistol from his pocket and pre-
sented it, but the officer seized it by the muzzle and
cock and wrenched it from the defendant, the pistol
snapping upon his finger in the struggle. With the
assistance of snottier officer he secured him, and
M'Dormel produced two other pistols, saying that
he had intended one for each of them.

Deponents believed that this conduct on the part
of M'Donnel arose from insanity.
The case was adjourned for the production of a
medical certificate.

TILE KING V. THE COMMISSIONERS OF SEWERS OF
TILE TOWER. HAMLETS.

Lord TENTERDEN gave judgment in this case
this morning. An application had been made on
the part of the inhabitants of the Hackney district
of the Tower Hamlet, for a writ of certiorari, to
take off a rate for the repair of Sk wets, which rate
had been issued by the Commissioners. It was
stated that the Hackney district being in the imme-
diate vicinity of the river Lea, had been hitherto
drained at a very small expence. Other districts,
however, which were near the river Thames,
and covered with houses, were drained, at a very
heavy expence, and the inhabitants of Hackney con-
tended that the Commissioners were not authorised
in laying a rate on those persons to keep in repair, at
a great expence, sewers, from which they could not
derive the slightest advantage. For the Commis-
sioners, it was argued that they could not, by law,
impose a rate upon any particular district, but were
obliged to lay the same rate upon all districts within
their Commissionership, wherever a rate was neces-
sary for any part of it.
Ihe COURT decided, upon the principle which
had always been acted upon, that no person should
be called upon to contribute to a rate of expences
from which he had received no benefit, that the rule
for a certiorari must be made absolute. The exact
question had never before been decided, and the
Court thought it necessary to take time for consider-
ing it. After that conference it was their opinion
that it was competent for the Commissioners to
make divisions in their whole district in order to tax
any particular district to support a sewer, from
which that district alone received benefit.--Rule
made absolute.

" There is no longer any question respecting the re-
turn of Donna Maria, the young Queen of Portugal. to the
protection of her imperial sire, the Emperor of Brazil.
Orders were received here by last Smithy's post im-
mediately to prepare, for the reception of her Majisty
and suite, the Brazilian frigate the Imperatriz, in
which ship her Marsty arrived in this country, for
the purpose of conveying her Majesty to Rio de Ja-
neiro. It is at present proposed that her Majesty
and suite shall leave London on the 10th of June,
awl, travelling by easy stages, reach this place on
the 14th, immediately embark, and proceed to sea for the
place of destination. In compliance with the orders re-
ceived, all is bustle on board the Imperatriz, iu fitting up
a number of extra cabins for the accommodation of her
Majesty's retinue, to make room for which 16 of her guns
have been removed on board the Isabel, which ship is or-
dered to accompany the Imperatriz. As to the nature of the
measures intended to be pursued towards Portugal and the
tender-hearted Miguel, not the least intimation has been
suffered to escape, for the best of all possible reasons, we
believe—because it is not known. We could venture
upon sundry speculations in the absence of all informa-
tion; but as the Leader is equally capable with ourselves,
of doing this, we will leave him to the indulgence of his
own surmises, and occupy our space with a relation of oc-
currences that have taken place."
