FRENCH PAPERS.
(From the Gazette de France, dated June 23.)
PARIS, JUNE 22.—The Austrian Observer gives
the news from Constantinople, which are in sub-
stance the same as those which we have taken from
the Augsburgh Gazette. The Russian vessel taken
by the Capitan Pacha is a frigate of forty-five guns,
with a crew of 400 men, who have been sent to the
Baguio. Though the Pore has published nothing
official respecting the affair of Pravadi, it was sati.,fied
with the result, for it had bestowed caftans of honour
on the couriers who brought the news. Redsehid
Pacha stands so high in the confidence of the
Sultan, that the most extensive powers have been
given him for the management of the war.
The considerable supplies of corn which had
lately arrived within the capital, as well as the
favourable appearance of the harvest in the Asiatic
provinces, had caused the price of provisions to fall.
Two Mihmandars, Arni Effendi and Namick
Effendi, having-the rank of Capidgi Bachis, had been
appointed, the first to attend upon Mr. Gordon, the
second to go and meet Count Guilleminot.

AWFUL EFFECTS OF A THUNDER

STORM.

About half-past five o'clock in the afternoon of
Thursday last, Ongar and its vicinity was visited by
a dreadful storm of thunder, accompanied by light-
ning, from the effects of which a windmill, the pro-
perty of Mr. Rayner, situated at Toot-hill, in the
parish of Stanford Rivers, was nearly destroyed, and
the miller was so shockingly mutilated that his re-
covery is considered doubtful. A very heavy cloud
‘vas observed to descend over the mill, which stands
kiln% an eminence, and at the same instant a hissing
noise was succeeded by an explosion resembling the
discharge of artillery. The wife of the unfortunate
miller, hearing the report, opened 'the door of her
cottage, and was first to observe the unthought-of
calamity : she was nearly suffocated by the sulphu-
'Tow vapour which impregnated the air, and quickly
filled the house. She had scarcely viewed the
appalling demolition of the mill, when the heart-
rending shrieks of her husband, calling fur assist-
ance, met her ear. In a state of distraction she
alarmed Mr. Randal, a neighbour, who, with se-
veral others, soon assembled ; but the awful spec-
tacle so tivetted them to the spot, that some
time elapsed before sufficient courage enabled them to
ascend the stairs. A young man, (nephew to Mr.
Rayner,) as soon as he was aware of the circum-
un.inte, without hesitation led the way, and, follow-
ed by others, immediately went to the assistance
of the unfortunate sufferer. The scene which pre-
sented itself on reaching the second floor baffles all
description. The poor man was discovered lying
upon a sack, his head most shockingly and inde-
scribably lacerated—his right leg hung over the
ladder communicating with the fist floor, and was
connected with his body by a small portion of
flesh only—the bone protruding through the stock-
ing. His right eye was so/injured that its powers
of vision are, it is supposed, for ever destroyed,
and his right hand was mangled in a frightful man-
ner. Apparently insensible of pain, and regard-
less of the injuries he had sustained, his first in-
quiry was as to the state of the mill and corn.
When the spectators had recovered from the
alarm excited by the mutilated appearance of the
sufferer, they conveyed him to a house, and the
assistance of a surgeon was speedily obtained.
Upon further examination, large splinters of
wood, and even grains of wheat from the hopper,
were found driven into various parts of his
body. The hair of his head was much sing-
ed. In short, the unfortunate man presented
a horrible spectacle. The most singular pene-
tration of the fluid was observable in the partial de-
struction of a pad in the neckcloth which be wore
at the time. His hairy cap was found lying by his
side, torn into innumerable pieces, and the floor was
coverei with blood. Mr. Potter, surgeon, of Ongar.
assisted by several other professional gentlemen, re-
moved the leg. Owing to the splintered state of
the bone, the use of the saw became necessary, but
from the skilful metier in which this operation was
performed, the poor man suffered comparatively but
little. To describe the state of the mill is a task
more difficult, but less painful. The lightning, it
would appear, first struck the middlings end, a term
given to some iron braces which afford support to
the sails, and proceeded in the track of a number of
bolts, removing some and slightly touching others,
until it reached the neck, when it took the parcels,
and then commenced its work of destruction in

the interior of the mill by shivering a great part of
the nearly new oaken shaft. The fluid continued its
course in nearly the centre by the sack-chain, and on
reaching the second floor came in contact with the
beam and scales, forcing two half-hundred weights
through the side of the mill. lii its progress thus far,
it completely cut off two of the sails, which it split
into innumerable pieces, and hurled to an incredible
distance. Some of these fragments were found
sticking in the earth so firmly as to require great
strength to effect their removal. The roof of the
mill was struck off in a similar manner, and the sides
were nearly stripped of their boarding. The ceiling
of the mill was divided and thrown on either side
upon the grass. The machinery was thus completely
exposed to the view, enclosed in the skeleton build-
try. The two other sails remain in their places, but
will need much repair to make them again fit for use.
The whole of the machinery was deranged, and the
cloths, where nailed, were much burnt. The electric
fluid having availed itself of nearly all the iron in the
mill, forced its way out by tearing up the flooring, and
cutting a piece of the sheer-tree away, thus escaping
on to the iron sheeting which covered the round
house. Part of this it raised, and concluded its
destructive course by passing down the back of the
stairs, which were iron braced, and forcing out a
number of very strong iron-nutted screws, finally
disappeared in the earth, making a cavity to a con-
siderable extent. Even a pen in the inkstand did
not escape, it being singed, as were also the brooms
and brushes.—Essex Herald.

We understand that Mr. Secretary PEEL has
purchased the elegant estate at Wallington Hall, near Lynn,
and that he intends it as the resort of his rural excursions.

Mr. SHARPE, the well known publisher, will
commence a new periodical work on the first of the next
mouth, under the title of TIIE THREE CHAPTERS ; it con-
tains, besides essays, criticism, biography, and a picture of
manners and society, a portion of the " AsiNivEasAß.V,"
together with one of the plates, beautifully engraved, for
the forthcoming volume of that popular Annual, which is
to he given in twelve parts, in monthly numbers, so as to
form the work complete at the end of a year, as a 'Mid-
summer Annual ; this constitutes one of the Chapters.
The second and third, in a similar manner, will form two
separate volumes at the same period ; and the novelty of
the design which unites the Annual with the Magazine,
the beauty of the embellishments, the talent of the literary
contributions, and its moderate price, will, we have no
doubt, render it highly popular.

LONDON,
THURSDAY EVENING, JUNE 25, 1829.

The Session of Parliament which terminated
yesterday, has been remarkable for two things ;
first, the general distrust and excitement under
the influence of which it commenced its labours ;

secondly, the halcyon calm and flattering appear,

ances that ushered in its dose. At the open

ing of the political campaign, England was
manifestly drifting down the torrent of anarchy
and confusion ; already she was within hearing
of the falls, when Government, like the soldiers
of Attila, promptly and opportunely diverted the
course of the channel, let off the tumultuous
waters, and brought the Constitution in safety
to her moorings. This great object once effect-

ed, the chief interest of the Session was clearly
at an end. No fluffier paramount importance
could attach to it. Men's minds exhausted
with the previous excitement required relaxation ;
they either could not or would not attend to
business, and by such display of inactivity gave
a tone to the conduct of Government, and ne-
cessarily imparted to its proceedings an air of
doubt, hesitation, and timidity. If Houses
cannot be made up, Ministers it is clear cannot
legislate.

For one thing, however, the Administration is

itself wholly responsible—we allude to the ex.
elusion of Mr. O'CONNELL. This very impo.

litic act, which has tended in some degree to
renew the agitation of Ireland, and neutralize
the courteous spirit of the Emancipation Bill,
has already been attended with most mischievous
effects. It has shown Government the futi-

lity of its opposition, and O'CONNELL the
amount of his influence. It has compelled
the former to submit, and enabled the latter to
triumph. In spite of every attempt to the con-
trary, the Liberator will next year take his seat

in the House of Commons, after having but too
successfully, and with some show of justice, pre-

judiccd the minds of a vast tnass of the Irish
whom the Catholic Relief Bill was meant ex-

nressly to conciliate.
Why, how, or under what circumstances, this
great political oversight was made, it is impos-
sible for us to conjecture. As the act of an Ad-
ministration which took credit to itself for the

lofty temper of its liberality, it is, to say the least
of it, unaccountable. It forms neither part nor
parcel of its declared principles, but stands singly
out in the foreground, a disjointed object, an
artificial limb clumsily grafted on a healthy body.
Had it not been for this act, our admiration of
the Government would have been perfect ; as it
is, the " web is of a mingled yarn."
Passing from this ungracious topic—which,
however, leads us to suspect the existence of
some strange secret influence, greater than, and
partially opposed to, the Administration—we
come to the present state of parties. These,
just now, are of the most unsettled, desultory,
and undecided character. They have neither
form, consistency, nor stamina ; but are the
mere shadowings forth of two leading political
sects, into which, probably by next Session,
either House of Parliament will be divided. At
present the Whigs and moderate Tories are Minis-
terial ; the Ultras are sulky and in opposition;
and the CANNINGITES-a small but sturdy and
influential band, formidable by their talents, and
still more so by their fixed habits of busiuess—
are resting on their oars, looking apparently

neither to the right nor left, but still keeping au
attentive and interested eye on the movements of

either party.
In this unsettled state of the political atmos-
phere, when nothing positive can be adduced, we
have every reason to hope that those who now
guide the helm will, by the accession of the mo-
derate men of all classes, become consolidated
into one dominant party, under the denomination
Cif it must have a name) of Liberal Tories. The
Ultras are clearly at their last gasp —requiescant
in pace !—the Whigs have few or no pretences
for holding off, (the Portuguese Question will,
we doubt not, be arranged to their satisfaction ;)
and the CANNINGITES cannot be dispensed with.
Under these circumstances, a union of the Go-
vernment party with that of Mr. BROUGHAM'S
awl Mr. HusxissoN's, is manifestly the only
thing %laming to ensure to the country the
services of the most powerful, accomplished, and
efficient Ministry it has ever yet known.

The French Papers contain nothing worthy o

comment.

The following are extracts from Prussian and
German Papers, received this morning. It will
be seen that the Russians have had sharp work
of it in a desperate sally made by the Turks from.
Silistria. If the Turks carry on in this manner,
the troops of his Imperial and moderate Ylit
JESTY have little chance
:
BUCHAREST, JUNE 2.—According to accounts from
Kalarasch of 31st May, the Pacha of Silistria was said
to have made a vigorous sally from the fortress, and to
have destroyed several of the works thrown up by the Rus-
sians, till after a sanguinary action he was driven back
into the fortress. Eight hundred wounded have been
brought over the Danube to Czulesti. General Malinof-
sky is said to be among the slain, who distinguished him-
self at the taking of Tourn9ul; and a General of Artillery,
Kutshuk Achim(' Pacha, is said to have been continually
at the head of his troops during the sally, and to have en-
couragel them by his impetuous courage. The loss of the
Turks is also said to have been very great. Persons ac-
quainted with the Pacha of Silistria agree that he is.justly
considered as one of the most inveterate enemies to the
Christians, and especially to the Russians, in all the East.
This hatred is the ground of his cruelty to the wounded
and prisoners.

AUGSBURG'', JUNE 18.—A letter from Constantinople
of the 26th May repeats the account of the Capitals Paella's
expedition to the Black Sea, and the capture of a frigate.
With respect to the affair at Pravadi, it is stated that the
object of the Turks was to cut off the communication be-
tween Varna and Kovarna, and that Alisch Paella, with
his cavalry, attacked and dispersed a Russian corps, and
would doubtless have succeeded in his object in reaching
Kovarna had not General Roth, on the first news of the
appearance of the Turks near Pravadi, detached a strong
column of infantry, which arrived just in time to cover the
road to Kovarna, and rally the dispersed troops. Alisch
retreated unmolested to the Grand Vizier's corps. The
loss of the Russians in these actions is stated here at 5,000
men ; that of the Turks at 1,500.

BERLIN, JUNE 18.—His Majesty the Emperor of
Russia arrived at Sybillenort on the 14th, and on the
following day proceeded on his journey to Kalisch, accom-
panied by his own Aide-de-Camp and Major-General
Nozlilz.

The Prussian State Gazette contains no news from

the army.
BRUSSELS, JUNE 23.—His Majesty the King arrived
yesterday at Liege. Prince and Princess Frederick and
suite arived here yesterday morning from Berlin. There
is a report that the King of Prussia will come to Brussels
in August, to be present at the marriage of one of his sons
to the Princess Marianne.

Buenos Ayres Papers have been received to
,he 25th April, and private letters to the 29th
nclusive. Aflltirs seem to be in a bad way
in that quarter, as will be seen by the follow-

BUENOS AYRES, Mutt:lr 21.—The Government has
issued a decree, commanding the organization of a Batta-
lion of the Friends of Order, in which foreigners not ex-
empted from service are immediately to be enrolled.
MARCH 28.—The garrison of Elmonte, about 100 men,
has been attacked and nearly destroyed by a body of
plunderers, five times their number. Colonel Estombe,
who commanded there, arrived here on the 19th, in a
state of mental derangement.
APRIL 4.—A despatch from General Lavallc gives an
account of his march to attack Gen. Lopez, but he bad not
fallen in with him. A letter from Colonel Frederick
Ranch gives an account of his march in pursuit of the
enemy. The whole country, he says, is a desert, and the
bringing the Indians to join in the war may have the
most fatal consequences.
Some of Colonel Ranch's soldiers have since arrived,
from whom we learn that his corps had been defeated, and
the Colonel killed. The news of his defeat caused a great
sensation in this city. It is said, that General Lavalle with
the cavalry, is about to return, leaving a corps of observa-
tion in the province of Santa Fe.
Aran 21.—M. Mendeville, the French Consul-General,
has issued a Concordat, protesting against the enrolment
of Frenchmen among " The Friends of Order." Many
letters have been published in answer to it. After several
days' anxiety and alarm, arising from the approach of a
party of the Monteneros (not Mountainers) to the city,
General Lavelle arrived on Saturday, and immediately left
town to take the command of the troops. There was a
skirmish, after which the enemy retreated to the south.

The following letter has been received from
the Agent to the North and South American
Coffee-house, dated Buenos Ayres, April 29,
1829 :

" I am still unable to give you any favourable news
from this country; on the contrary, affairs look much
worse. My last informed you that General Lavalle had
set out with a strong division of troops to act against the
province of Santa Fe ; he was not able, however, to pene-
trate to that town, and was obliged to retrace his steps, in
order to attack the Montoneros, or Federals of the South,
who had penetrated to within a few miles of Buenos
Ayres, causing great consternation : and the Government
forced the greater part of the male population, except the
British and North Americans, to be under arms night and
day ; this harassing duty, attended with military drillings,
continued for ten days and nights, at the end of which time
Lavalle and his troops arrived, and proceeded against the
opposing party, who then retreated, to join their force
with that of Lopez, the Governor of Smta Fe. The lat-
ter, at the head of about 700 men of Santa Fe, and
300 Indians, was a few days since at Lujan, and
had been joined by the Federals, or Montoneros of
Rosas, making nearly 3,000 men. They ore, how-
ever, badly armed, and from such a motley group dis-
cipline can hardly be expected. Lavalle's troops, on the
contrary, are well disciplined, clothed, and paid, he having
the Bank, Custom-house, and all the revenue at his dis-
posal ; besides which, he and his officers can expect no
mercy if the latter party succeed. The Federals swear to
have vengeance for the blood of the murdered Dorrego.
" The Unitarians of Buenos Ayres call their opponents
the Federals every opprobious epithet that language affords,
such as montoneros, banditti, assassins, &c. and the press

teems with abuse of thent ; but in this respect they fish
very cowardly, for they will allow no opposition ; there-
fore to retort or deny any thing they assert would cause
the writer serious injury—it is indeed the reign of terror.
The Editors of the Unitarian Gazettes are violent par-

tisans, and they write with no common ability, sufficient
to mislead cleverer men than many of their aristocratic sup-
porters, including the host of shopkeepers and their as-
sistants, who formed the most prominent part ; the least
idea that the party outside is not banditti, but a regular
Federal party, would cause immediate imprisonment of
any one who had the hardihood to assert it publicly. The
Montoneros, as they are called, consist of the Paimas,
countrymen, and Gauchos or herdsmen, collected together
through the it.fluence of Don Juan Manuel Roans, who is
their leader, and the richest landholder in this country ;
he was the friend of the late unfortunate Governor Dorrego.
They have no doubt committed outrages in their different
marches and attack, and so have the enemies in Europe,
who boast of discipline, and what they have done has been
magnified one thousand-fold by their inveterate enemies
here.

' It is unfortunate that the Indians are employed in

this ;;;fat:Dorrego's plan was rather to conciaitt; them
than root them out by sword and lance, and before the
present revolution the whole of them were quietly work-

hag in the fields.
" Every foreigner resident in Buenos Ayres, except the
British, are to take up arms. The French, who are very
numerous, have formed themselves into a corps, called the
Friends of Order. The British, by treaty, were exempted
from all military service, and the North Americans refused
to serve. This called forth g-eat complaints from M. Man-
deville, the French Consul, who stated that the service, in-
stead of being exclusively to preserve the public peace, bad be-
come entirely military. The Government, to pacify h im, had
absolutely sent an order to be printed, that the British and
Americans should likewise be called out, but it was withd fawn
in consequence of a strong remonstrance from the British
Minister. • The French Consul then advised his country-
men to deposit their arms, but numbers of them refused
not only to lay down their muskets, but attacked the
French Consul in person.
" Of course:you:may well believe.that the Englishmen are
not favourites with the foreigners in powers, from their
sledded refusal to take arms, and holding out the least idea
that Rosas's party can be any thing else but banditti. The
newspapers have vented their rage in consequence upon the
English name and nation, which has been echoed by their
adherents.
Since writing the above, I have to inform you, that a
battle between the opposing parties took place on the 26th
inst. It was a drawn battle, or rather Lavelle got the
worst of it. He lost his spare horses, and retreated to
San Jose de Floris, eight miles from this city, where be is
now repairing damage. Lopez is doing the same at
Leijune, a town 40 miles from this. Business is com-
pletely suspended here. Exchange upon England 101 d.
to 11 d. per dollar. Doubloons 69 Paper Dollars each.
The following vessels have arrived at Buenos Ayres :
The British brig Caraboo, from the West Indies.—Brig
June, from Liverpool—Pacific, ditto.— George Can-
ning, ditto.—Malvina, from London.
Exchange on England 10i- to 11 pence per dollar; 69
paper dollars each.

Extract from the Agent to Lloyd's at Smyrna,
dated May 19:

" There are reports in circulation, resting on the autho-
rity of some masters of vessels, that the Russian Admiral at
the Dardanelles had verbally informed them of his inten-
tion to establish a general blockade of that passage, but on
inquiry we find that he had given no notice of the kind to
the Dutch Consul. The latter has received intimation
from him of the blockade against the conveyance of provi-
sions being extended to all the coast from the Gulf of
Contessa to Cape Baba ; and some vessels have been ac-
tually turned off from the entrance of the port of Enos and
the Gulf of Adramiti.

Consols have continued the whole of the morning
at 881 s for the account, with little doing; it is

In the Foreign market the only business was in
Brazil and Buenos Ayres stocks; the latter has
fallen five per cent. in consequence of the unfavour-
able accounts from that quarter, and the former is
not so good as yesterday.
We have received further accounts from Buenos
Ayres, by letters dated the 30th of April, twelve
o'clock, stating that after the battle of the 26th,
General Lavalle broke up on the 29th, in pursuit of
Lopez, who had lost 1,500 men, and accounts were
expected of his being surrounded. In the mean
time General Paez bad entered Cordova.
The Mail from Constantinople is arrived, but
does not bring so late accounts by two days, as pre-
viously received by the foreign papers.
, The capital was abundantly supplied with pro-
visions, and great tranquillity prevailed; the great
persons about the Grand Vizier were for peace with
Russia. The last letters from Constantinople o
the 17th May, sta►e that several battles had taken
place in the environs of Varna, and the Turks had
penetrated to the walls of the above place. The
Turkish account says, the Russians lost several
thousands of men; Pravddi was taken and retaken
several times; at present it is a heap of ruins.
Letters from Tangiers of the Ist June say, that
no arrangement has yet taken place with Austria,
although a Jew merchant of Gibraltar is doing all

By a vessel from Alexandria, left on the 6th May,
and arrived at Corfu in 17 days, accounts have been
received, that the marching of troops to Asia has
been suspended. One sail of the line, four frigates

An improvement may be mentioned in the
general state of business at the Broomielaw, especially in
the Liverpool trade. That with Ireland is still considered
in a depressed condition, and five of the Liverpool vessels
are still lying for sale on the south side of the river. Several
traders and steam-boats are undergoing repairs. Wherries
continue to arrive from the Highlands with potatoes, which
are offered for sale at 10d. per peck.—Glasgow Chronicle
GAME.—From the inquiries we made, when
among the bills last week, we think it probable that there
will be a good crop of grouse, although some mischief was
done by the frosts that occurred when the birds began to
sit. On the high dry moors the rain fell at the most cri-
tical moment, and relieved many a brood that would have
otherwise perished for want of water. The partridges'

FIELD DAY.—This morning, at half-past
seven o'clock, the Ist Battalion of the 3d Regiment of
Foot Guards, stationed in Knightsbridge Barracks,
marched i:Jo Hyde Park, under the command of Colonel
KEATE, where they bad a field-day. The troops were
put through a great variety of fine evolutions, all of which
were executed with the utmost celerity and precision ;
the skirmishing movements of the light infantry were all
of the first order, ten rounds were fired by the battalion
and twenty by the light company. The troops returned
to the barracks between ten and eleven o'clock.

BUSlNESS.—Business, says a celebrated
writer, is the salt of life; which not only gives a grate-
ful smack to it, but dries up those crudities that would
offend, preserves from putrefaction, and drives off all
those blowing flies that would corrupt it. Let a man be
sure to drive his business, rather than let it drive him.
When a man is but once brought to be driven, he be-
comes a vassal to his affairs. Reason acd right give the
quickest despatch. All the ent inglements that we meet
with arise from the irrationality of ourselves or others.
With a wise and honest man a business is soon ended ;
but with a fool and knave there is no conclusion, and sel-
dom even a beginning.

Died on Tuesday last, at his house, Nine
Elms, after a long and painful illness, Mr. Woons, who
for 20 years filled the situation of second clerk at the
Public-office, Bow-street. During the period of his ser-
vice his conduct was such as to gain the entire confidence
of those under whom lie acted, and he was esteemed by
his friends as a young man of strictly honourable and up-
right

During a storm of thunder and lightning on
Wednesday last, Mr. and Mrs. JONES, of Ragland, and
Mr. YOUNG. of Cwm Carvan, took shelter in the New
Inn, on the road to Ragland, about four miles from Mon-
mouth, and seated themselves in the kitchen. On a sud-
den two long and violent peals of thunder, that seemed to
shake the building to its foundation, were heard, and im-
mediately afterwards a globular mass of electric fluid,
about the size of a cricket-ball, and of a glaring crimson
red, more lurid than common fire, entet ed the house at an
open hack door, passed through the kitchen, from thence
along a passage, and went out again at the front door,—
Happily neither the house nor any of its inmates were
injured.—Monmouthshire Merlin.
THE LEIGHAM ESTATE.—The sale of this
property has made a considerable sensation—it arises
mainly out of the beauty Of the situation—it approxi-
mates. so entirely upon the Earl of MonLEv's Domain at
Saltram, that it appears an essential appendage to it.
The following is Mr. GEORGE ROBINS'S description of
this interesting property : —This property is in the parish
of Egg Buckland, within four miles and on the not th side
of Plymouth, and a turnpike road approaches to within a
short distance of the lodge entrance. Of the situation of
this delightful property it would indeed he difficult to say
too much ; in fact, praise has nearly exhausted itself by
c natant repetition. The River Plym, famed for its fine
salmon peel, winds round in an irregular form, and con-
stitutes a boundary, the only one that separates it from
the Eirl of MORLEY'S splendid demesne of Saltram.
This estate is indebted very much, and participates in an
eminent degree, of the majestic woods of the respected
Earl, which so entirely approximate upon Leigham as to
appear a portion of the estate. The park and grounds
possess such a delightful irregularity, such an infinite
variety of bill and dale, and wood and water, that they
must be seen with a view to a thorough appreciation ; it
probably may suffice to add, that for variety and pic-
turesque beauty, it will not yield to the meat favoured in
this highly esteemed county, which is almost superfluous to
sty has long been characterised as the Garden of England.
The mansion house is very agreeably placed, sheltered
Corn the north by the rising grounds, and immediately
en face the luxuriant woods of Saltram ; it is environed
by the extensive pleasure grounds, plantations, and shrub-
bery walks, disposed in good taste, and terminated by the
Wilderness. The interior of this envied abode, without
being of a pretending character, is full of comfort ; and
the following outline will demonstrate its capability to ac-
commodate a very respectable family. At a little distance
and on a fine commanding spot is the Observatory. It
has become a little dilapitated, but in contemplating the
wild and majestic Amphitheatre that surrounds it, ren-
dered infinitely more beautiful by the luxuriant and far-
famed woods of the Noble Earl of MORLEY ; the little
outlay of money necessary to complete it, could not
be withheld for a single moment; it is indeed indis-
pensable with a view to its " friendly rivalry" with the
Observatory in the opposite direction. The Borough and
town of Plympton, and its ancient castle, forms a pleasing
object in the distant part of the valley, the river at high
water completes the picture, and it may be safely affirmed,
without colouring it too highly, that (looking at the
property from this interesting spot), it really " beggars all
description." The Estate is equally eligible for the purpose
of a residence, or as an investment—in the latter case it
will not fail to lie observed, that its approximation upon
the towns ofiPlymouth and Devonport, where the mai kets
are in such high repute, will insure in all times, a ready
vent for the produce, and the fundholder will do well to
give to this property his serious consideration, for it can-
not be doubtful that the present exceedingly high price is
likely ere long to suffer from a re-action ; and in the event
of a war, a certain loss of one-fifth of his capital must
ensue, while this very cause (and sooner or later it must
occur), will necessarily enhance in the exact same pto-
' portion the value of property so closely allied with the
best maritime port in England.

LAW INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAY.)

COURT OF CHANCERY.

The LORD CHANCELLOR sat at Westminster, to-
day, at eleven o'clock.

LEONARD V. ASHLEY.
Mr. WAKEFIELD applied for the re-committal of
Mr. Chambers, in this case for not putting in his
answer, which the LORD CHANCELLOR ordered.

COVENT-GARDEN THEATRE.—CONST V. HARRIS.
Mr. HORNE was instructed to request his Lord-
ship to appoint an early day for giving his judgment
in this case ; the reason of his doing so was, a third
party, not before the Court, no less a personage
than his Grace the Duke of Bedford, was proceeo-
ing in another place with certain legal proceeding'
called ejectments, which were in so forward a State
that it was more than probable he would obtain
possession of the theatre before the end of the pre-
sent term, unless some means were adopted to con-
trovert it. The judgment of the Court in Coot
and Hauls would probably set aside the difficulty,
and put the parties in a situation to liquidate the
Duke's demands.
Mr. PEPYS concurred in the application of his
Learned Friend. The Duke of Bedford would cer-
tainly get in possession of the theatre very sliortlY,
unless the parties were put in a condition to pay the,
rent. The Court would recollect a petition luau
been presented to have the money out of Court, the
hearing of which had been postponed till the judg"
merit of the Court was pronounced. limier these
circumstances the Learned Counsel trusted his
Lordship would appoint an early day for the hearing
of the petition, and giving his judgment,
His LORDSHIP appointed Thursday next.
INJUNCTION.—LEE V. CHOPPING.

The SOLICITOR-GENERAL applied for an injunr‘
tion to restrain the defendant, Mr. Chopping, a per-
son of the name of Slater, and another named Good"
man, from removing the hay and crops of a farm let
by the plaintiff to Mr. Chopping. It appeared from
the statements of the Solicitor-General, that, oil
agreement was entered into on the I7th of April 9
1826, between the plaintiff and defendant, whereby
the plaintiff undertook to let to the defendant
house and farm at West Grinstead, in the county 01
Essex. By the agreement the defendant undertook
not to sell off any hay or straw without the consent
of the landlord. The defendant entered into posses-
sion, and afterwards underlet the property to a per-
son of the name of Slater without the concurrence
of the plaintiff. An ejectment was brought, Slater
having agreed to sell the standing crops of hay, &c.
to Mr. Goodman, who had proceeded to cut down

the crops and carry part of them away.
The LORD CHANCELLOR thought the affidavit in
support of the bill was not sufficient, but granted
the injunction, restraining the parties from removing
contrary to the agreement, the Solicitor-General
undertaking to correct the affidavit.
