promised further esplaisatious and vouchers, which will, in lir
opinion, reduce it still Further ; so that until the whole accounts

other side that, instead of thirty-two, there were thirty-three
sacks in the waggon, Which made up the full quantity. After
some discussion, the Magistrate exit-eased his determination tq
fine the accused in 2s. per sack.
Mr. Hanna, for the defendant, gave notice of an appeal, nbt
to the Quarter Sessions, but to a higher tribunal.
At the eiening sitting of the Magistrate, however, the defets:.

and paid the fine.
Ha:roil-GA atiest.—A report having been circulated that a most
pestilential small pox was raging in the neighbourhood of Saffron.
hill, considerable alarm was excited, and application having been
"made to this Office, inquiries were made, from which It appeared
that the small-pox was prevalent in that street (owing to parent,
neglecting to have their children vaccinated), but that the deaths
were not more than ordinary, and that there was no danger t 6
be apprehended from passing through the street.
7. Welsh, T. Saunders, T. Clerk, and G. Ilrytan,were remanded,
charged with breaking open the shop of Mr. Beaumont, linen-
draper in St. John's-street, and 'stealing therefrom silk, lace,
velvet, &c. to the amount of X3OO.
MA Rutoßounn-STREar. Yesterday, Mr. Xing, a chorus singer
at Covent-garden Theatre, was charged with assaulting Mr.
Hare, of Bedford-street, Bedford-square. The prosecutor statedt
that on Sunday evening he was walking with a Lady in Ruisell-
street, when thealefendant impeded their progress, and, on being
remonstrated with, threatened to keteck out his brains with a
stick, Which he brandished in his hand. Ili. Hare forced It
from him, when he twice attempted to kick him, and on its
being returned, he struck a valuable little spaniel dog so violentli
as to kill it ou the spbt. The prisoner said, be did not strike
the dog till it had first Sawn at him. The Magistrate said .it
was a wanton and cruel act, and bound him in his owti ricogni;-
einem' to appear at the Sessions.
Umoa-Ilatx..-,-Yesterday, Mr. John Butler, jetn, undertaker,
was charged with assaulting the Rev. Mr. Abdy.
Mr. Abdy.—On Sunday afternoon lust I performed the du-
ties of the day at Saint John's church, Tooley-street, for my
father, and I bad also to perform my father's duties at Bow
Church, Cheap:hiei at half-past sir on the tune evening. When
there are any funerals, it is usual for the clergyman and the tufa
deriaters to arrange at what hour they shall take place; and al
diet* were three bodies to bg buried at St. John's Church on that
afternoon, a quarter before five was the time appointed for their
interment; there were also two bodies to be buried at the old
church-yard, at five o'clock. As blr. Butler did not arrive iii
time with the funeral under his care, I went to the old church,.
yard and attended to the funerals that were then waiting. Thi
finishing the service, it was is quarter after five. Not having
taken any refreshment since the morning, I said to the sexton,
" I will go and take some refreshment, and return again at five
minutesjaefore six." On entering the church-yard I heatd Mr.
Butler say, " Now, you are come, what are you like ?" Mr.
Butler having before behaved improperly towards my father, I
determined to take na notice of him, but went on to the bettor.
The grave where the cbikl was to be deposited was within 1.1
yards of the church gate ; the reading of the service naught'
commences there. I cannot say whether when I began daises-
vice the whole company had arrived—l believe they had pot;
but if I had waited till all the mourners and attendants were
ready to proceed, the space between the gates and the &d'art
would not have been sufficient for them, therefore, when
the child on the sexton's shoulder, I commenced reading the
service. Seeing the slow rate at which Mr. Butler was moving,
I desired the sexton to move on, when :Mr. Butler turned round
and said, " Don't mind that fellow, lam your master." I got
to the grave before the others bad arrived, and fearing that
something unpleasant might weer, I began the service before
the mourners had reached it. The. undertaker came up, and
placed himself before me, with his hat on. I desired him to
take it off. The irregularity was now so treat that I told the
mourners it was impossible to proceed rid order was restored,
land a proper apology made for such misconduct. As I was
leaving the church-yard, I was followed by the undertaker, who
ased the most indecent language, and said," What do yott nieao k'
Outside the gate he struck me a severe Mow in the fate, lifter

Mr. Cuauseas.—Did you strike Mr. Butler first?
Mr. Abdy.—Most certainly I did not.

Mr. Butler.--I admit that I struck him; but—a-a

Mr. Butler.—No, Sir; I was struck brit by Mr. Abdy ovet

The French Papers of Sunday bring an account of
the execution of the Rochelle conspirators on the pre-
ceding day. At five o'clock in the morning Boniest
Pomier, Goubin, and Raoulk, were removed from
the Bicetre, and conveyed to the Conciergerie. About
nine o'clock M. MONTMERQUE, President of the Court
of Assizes, attended them to receive any declarations
they might feel disposed to make. The ATTORN6Y-
GENERAL also visited them, and it is pretended that
they made some disclosures. The execution took
place at a cparter past five o'clock in the afternoon,
in the Place de Greve.

Numei ous troops were stationed on the bridges and
the quays, from the Palace of Justice to the Place de
Greve. At a few minutes after five, the four con-
demned prisoners left the Conciergerie. They were
placed on two cat riages. Each had a Clergyman with
him. The courage and firmness which they had
shewn during the trial did not abandon them for a
moment.• With countenances calm and resigned,
they traversed the silent multitude ranged along the
way through which they passed. They saluted the
persons they recognized, and who made farewell
signs to them. On arriving at the place of execution,
they displayed the same coolness ; and to each of
them may be applied the expression of M. de CHA•
TEA ÜBRIAND" He died with the firmness of a sol-
dier, and the gentleness of a youth."
One of the French papers says that they were very
attentive to the Ministers of Religion, and all kissed
the crucifix at the foot of the scaffold. Another jour-
nal states, that on their passage from the Conciergerie
to the Place de Greve, they almost the whole time
affected to turn their heads from the side where the
Priests were. When Goubin arrived at the scaffold,
he cried out, " Vivc la Liberte!"

The intelligence from Madrid in the French Papers
is to the 11th instant. The new Spanish Ministers
continue to act with great candour and firmness.
Aware of the difficult situation in which they are
placed, they do not hesitate to conceal it, but rely on
their own integrity and the good sense of the Spanish
Nation for support. A Royal Decree has been issued
for convoking the Extraordinary Cortes, which is to
meet on the 7th of October. The first preparatory
meeting will take place on the Ist. This document
is interesting, as frankly declaring the state of the
country, and the measures necessary to restore it to
tranquillity. It is as follows :

" His Majesty, in consequence of the great evils which weigh
heavily on Constitutional Spain, being persuaded that the Na-
tion, represented by the Cortes, can alone supply the resources
indispensable for a prompt and effectual cure, has thought it fit
that they should assemble, and has ordered the same to be made
known to the Permanent Deputation of the Cortes. The said
Extraordinary Cortes shall direct their attention—

" lit. To furnish the Government with resources in men and
money sufficient to meet the wants of the State, and to deliver
the nation without delay from the factious bands which infest
the frontier provinces.

_ .
2. To the arrangement of affairs of high importance with
some Foreign Powers.
" 3. To give the Spanish Army a new organization, according
to the Military Ordinances, the discussion of which was suspended
in the last Legislature, and the placing of which in harmony with
the existing institutions is most important.
" 4. To the code of legal process so necessary for the prompt
and impartial administration of justice.
" The objects above indicated are those which his Majesty
wishes in the first instance to submit to the deliberation of the
Extraordinary Cortes, reserving to himself the right of address-
ing to them some other subjects which may require a speedy
decision. Finally, his Majesty orders it to be made known to
the Permanent Deputation, that it will afford him much satis-
faction to find that the installation of the Extraordinary Cones
shall experience as little delay as possible."

The most perfect tranquillity prevails in Madrid,
and the people manifest the fullest confidence in the
measures adopted by the Ministry for re-establishing
the peace of the interior.
The battalion of the volunteers of Catalonia, and
the Itlaiaga regiment of provincial militia, amounting
to 1%000 men, embarked on the Ist at Malaga, for
Barcelona, where the insurgents still excite tumults.
An article from that. city, dated the 11th inst. states,
that numerous arrests have taken place among per-
sons supposed to be unfriendly to the new system.—
Sixty of these persons have been embarked. The place
of their destination is dot known. The country is
covered with Royalist bands, and new ones are
formed drily.—A list is then given of the persons
arrested and embarked, chiefly priests, monks, mili-
tary officers, and persons in public employments. •
A corps of 10,000 men is now assembled between

Navarre and Biscay. On the arrival of these- troops,
the banditti which had desolated BliesHy dispersed.
Notwithstanding -all that has been asserted of
Turkish victories and the annihilation of the Greeks,
'every day proves their falsehood, and that on the'
-contrary, the success has been on the side of the
Greeks. Two letters from Coif% dated the 7th andi
19th of August, confirm the previous teports gene-
rally, and assert positively that CHOULICHID PACHA,
the Generalissimo of the Turkish Armies, was forced
to return to Larissa with only 3,000 out of all the
force lay had collected together, amounting as was
said to 40,000 men. These letters farther state, that
so far from the Greeks having been defeated in
Epirus, they had been victorious in every quarter,
and that the Suliots in particular had greatly distin-
guished themselves by their bravery. The writer re-
marks that the Greeks ought not to boast of their
successes, for they have to fight with a contemptible
population. One of the Chiefs of Upper Albania (in
that part of which the inhabitants are neither Greeks
nor Turks) had completely destroyed" the Ottoman
army in that quarter.
But the letters in question give another piece of
very important intelligence which had reached Corfu,
namely, that the Greek and Turkish fleets met off'
Zante—that an engagement took place, in which the
Greeks were completely victorious, and succeeded in
taking six or seven small frigates and corvettes (no
line:of-battle ships are mentioned),and in sinking some
others—that six Turkish ships took shelter in Marto,
a port facing Corfu (and as this port is in sight of the
town, 'we presume the vessels were seen going in
there)—that the rest sought shelter in Zante—that
the Public Authorities there protested against their
remaining, but the Ticks refused to go away, and
General ADAM having received an account of this
from Cephalonia, proceeded direct to Zante.
So far the account with respect to this battle ; bet
it is proper to add, that the writer says he does not
pledge himself for its truth. However, one should
suppose that all these details—the refusal of the fleet
to idve Zante, the departure of General ADAM in
consequence to Zante, and the arrival of the six
Turkish ships in Murto, a port opposite to Corfu, and
which consequently must have been seen—could hardly
have been mere inventions.

The Gazette of Augsburg has recovered from its
despondency as to the affairs of Greece, and states
that the Tut ks were beaten several days successively
by CoLocoraoNt. Indeed, there seems little doubt
that the incursion of CHOURSCHID PACHA into the
Morea had completely failed ; he is said to have
evacuated Corinth, and retired towards Trecala
and Larissa.

An article from Ancona, dated September 3, says :
Important news is expected from the sea in the
neighbourhood of the Morea. The Greek fleet of 90
sail has arrived there with fire-vessels constructed in
America. The Turkish troops have set fire to Foskan,
an important town of Wallachia. Some Greeks have
been assassinated at Bucharest. The Hospodars who
have returned to that tows, have written to their emi-
grant friends, counselling them not yet to return."

This forenoon we received Bayonne Papers to the
18th. Sir WILLIAM A'Cowir, our Minister to Spain,
arrived at Bayonne on the lith inst. float Paris, on
his way to Madrid. There is no certain news of
Quraana since the affair of the 7th, but the return
to France of the Apostolic Junta of Navarre, as well
as of several other individuals, seems to shew that
General ESPINOSA has dislodged the Defenders of
the Faith from the mountains of Navarre, with the
exception of Ir ati, which he reconnoitred on the 13th
inst. with 1,500 men. It is even asserted that he has
sent to Pomp. eluna for two heavy cannon to bombard
this fort, and that he has employed workmen to
make a road for the more easy conveyance of these
pieces.—The following are extracts:
