*very preparation to go
to Odessa, and that he will•only wait for a last dis-
patth from M. de Tatistheff. Two of the Grand
Dukes will, have commands in the hrtny..- Vitgue and
evasive answers will no longer be attended to. It is
said in public, that M. de Tatischeff has orders im-
mediately to quit Vienna, and to break off all the
negotiations, in case the-answer of the Porte to a
new Note remitted by the Austrian Internuncio, M.
de Lutzow, should not be entirely satisfactory. It is
even added, that in this case M. de Tatischeff will
proceed immediately to the head-quarters of the Rus-
sian army, and deliver to the General-in-Chief sealed
orders, of which he is the bearer.
64 It is also said, that the Cabinets of Vienna and
St. James's had proposed to our Court, in case the
Porte should not accept all the terms prescribed by
Russia, to submit the difference to a tribunal formed
of the Plenipotentiaries of the great Powers, in other
words, to a new European Congress ; but it seems
that our Court has not acceded to the proposal.
The first of the conditions, sine qua non, dictated
by Russia, is the entire evacuation of Moldavia' and
Wallachia, and the nomination of new Christian Elos-
podars. The repair and rebuilding of :he Christian
Churches are also required. But well-informed per-
sons assert that the most difficult article to regulate,
is that of the indemnity in money which Russia re-
quires to make good the expense of the armaments
and marching of the troops, expenses so enormous,
that Moldavia and Wallachia themselves would be
an insufficient compensation.
" Another piece of news, not relative to Turkey,
but which excites some interest in our political circles.
is that of the marriage projected between the King
of England and a Danish Princess, a project which
also gives umbrage to the Court of Stockholm. The
Danish party is still acting in Norway;and Russia
cannot see with indifference the English Cabinet ac-
quire a preponderance in the Councils of the King of
Denmark. The English fleets might then some time
attempt to dominate in the Baltic, and to dispose at
pleasure of the passage of the Sound."

BOXERS:

There seems to be a dispute with respect 'to the Champion-
ship. Cribb, some months back, resigned the title in favour of
Spri»gi but it is contendeil by Nunes friends, that as Spring
has not conquered him, he (Mate) is, of course, the Champion.
May it not more reasonably be argued, that as Nettle has not
thought proper to challenge Spring, the lattei has for the present
an undoubted right to the inheritance of the title, and that Nrate
cannot fairly claim it until he shalt have vanquished Spring in
the geld of battle? The Gas,contest. throws no light whatever
upon the Object.

SALE OF BREAD.

Mr. CHARLES CALVERT called the attention
of the Hotise to a subject on which he bad given no-
tike—the regulation of the sale of Bread in the Me-
t:opolis. There were two measures which might be
re .orted to as remedies for the evils of the present
system. The one by selling bread by the pound
weight ; the other, by a fixed price cn each loaf. To
the former there were some objections; the weight
would be considerably increased by an adulteration
(.1 flour. In that case, the changes in price could
not be given in fractions, or made less than one
permy each loaf, which amounted to 6s. 8.1. in the
.sack of flour. What lie meant by a fixed price was,
• that bread should be sold in loaves at 6d. Is. and
Is. 6d. each. Independent of an alteration in the
/node then in practice, there was an actual necessity
for the attention of the House, as the present Act
would expire on the 21-11 of June next. The plan
be proposed to adopt wac, with the permission of the
liouse, to bring in a Bill on that evening, to have it
read a first time, to have it printed, and then re-
ferred to a Committee up stairs. Ile Was convince&
that the subject would receive the fullest deliberation
in that Committee, and some measure of effectual
relief be determined on. The Hon. Member con-
cluded by moving for leave to bring in a Bill to re.
duce into one Act all the regulations respecting
Bikers, and for further enactments to regulate the
side of bread in the Metropolis.
Si: WILLIAM DE CRESPIGNY supported the
motion.—Leave was given to bring in a Bill.

SCOTLAN U.

When a duel takes place upon a challenge, and is followed by
the death of one of the parties, this, according to the law of
Scotland, is murder on the survivor, how fair and equal louver
the manner of conducting the combat. But the better to repress
such irregularities, to which the fervent temper of the Scots so
strongly disposed them, the Legislature, by the Statute 1600, c. 12,
raised the bare act of engaging in a duel to the same rank of a
capital crime, as the actual slaughter,without distinguishing whe-
ther any of the parties dii or did not stiffer any wound or mate-
rial harm on the occasion. To complete the restraint, it was by Sta-
tute 1696, c. 35, made punishable with banishment and escheat of
moveables, to be concerned in the giving, sending, or accepting of a
eballenge,even though no combat should ensue.-I luine,v.2. p. 281.
It is a singular coincidence that Sir Alexander Boswell should
have first proposed the repeal of these Acu.—On the 31st March,
1819. on his moving- " that leave he given to bring in a Bill to re-
' peal certain Acts of the Parliament of Scotland regarding
" after some observations on the Scots Acts in general. andstating that they might be divided into four classes, one of which
was that of " Statutes held to he in force of an olfjectionable na-
ture," he added, " he wished to confine himself at present to
moving the repeal of one Statute of an exceptionable nature—a
Statute with respect to Duels, on which an iudividual hid Lady
been tried. lly this Statute, a person sending or bearing a chal-
lenge to fight a duel, forfeited all his moveable property, and
suffered banishment, whether the duel took place or not."
The Bill passed into a law, and thus the punishment applicable
to all those concerned in the affair in which he fell, is, through
his instrumentality, very different from what it otherwise would
have been.

NORWICH v. COUNTY FIRE OFFICE.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE STAR.
IR—An Advertisement, signed CocxEn, issued
" by the Secretary to the New Norwich Insurance Com-
pany, impugns the truth of an Extract published last summer,
stewing the increase of Duty paid by the County Fire Office
for the preceding year. Ile performs this notable feat by quot-
ing the amount paid for the following year, viz. for 1821, and
upon the necessary difference of the exhibit he attempts to be
witty. If, however, your F.eae.ers will consult any authentic
source, they will find that the Eatrazt was right to a fraction ;
lad if they extend the inquiry to two, three, four, or five years
back, they will still find that the increns e of Duty paid by the
County Fire Office has exceeded that of any other Office in the
Kingdom. In return fur the politeness shewn in answering this
very trifling question, Mr. ILINOLD wiil perhaps condescend to
answer two or three questions of " some pith and moment."
Ist. If it be true, that the Norwich Union Society increased
so wonderfully last year, as is pretended—that it returned pro-
fits to the large amount stated—that it had is hand the hundreds
of thousands avertised—what, in the name of wonder ! was the
consideration that induced Mr. Bicssotn to break up such a So-
c'ety, unknown to the Trustecs and to the Members generally,
and silently to turn them ail over to a Norwich Joint Stock
Company?
sd. If it be false—will not the Public tire of such tricks?
Zcl. Whether true or false—why ars the advantages of the
dissolved mutual Assurance Society quoted for many years back,
z"d advertised, as benefits conferred by the Norwick Joint Stock
Company, which has not been seven months in existence•—un-
kss to deceive the Pubilc?—l am, Sir, your's, &c.

DISSENTERS MARRIAGES.

3!r. W. SMITH presented a Petition from certain Protest-
ant l)ksenters in the County of Kent, who objected to the doc-
trine of the Trinity. The Petitioners complained thiethei were
by the existing laws subjected to much hsrdship and inconveni-
ence with respect to the Marriage Ceremony, and prayed for
relief. The same lion. Member also presented Petitions of a
simil it nature from the following places :—Tavistock, in the
e it:my of Devon ; Chichester, Dover, Hackney, and Lambeth.
Mr. W. SM IT e 1 then observed, that he had gives notice that
be woad en the 17:h of April move fur leave to bring in a Bill
to remove the evil of which the Petitioners complained. The
measure which he intended to propose for their relief appeared
to be simple and practicable, but it was unimportant in what
manner the rebel should be afforded, so that it was administered
effectually. -

His Excellency the Dutch Ambassador (Baron
ben) and suite, arrived here about eight o'clock
yesterday evening, and alighted at Wittones Ship
Inn. About three o'clock this afternoon his Excel-
lency was conveyed on board his Majesty's steam-
packet Dasher, then lying in the Roads, under a sa-
lute from the guns of the Citadel. The wind being
fair, his Excellency had, no doubt, a short and de-
lightful passage to Calais.

An advertisement appeared in our last paper,
signed a " Prudent Man, and directed against the
Norwich Union Insurance Society, for which we take
the earliest*opportunity of expressing our unfeigned
regret. •NN e have always held it to be a sacred prin-
ciple, in the management of our paper, in no case to
insert anything that can either wound the feelings
or hurt the interest of any individual, and it has been
accordingly a standing rule, often and anxiously en-
forced, that all advertisements, which contained mat-
ter in the least degree doubtfnl in its tendency,
'should be submitted to the Editor; as it is impossible
that he can read over all the matter previous to its
appearance in the Paper. By some unaccountable
neglect this rule was not, in the present instance,
complied with, and the Advertisement in question
having got insertion unawares, was not observed until
itovas too late to remedy the evil. We can only re-
peat, that this mistake has occasioned the most un-
speakable vexation, and that we are anxious to make
any reparation that may still be in our power.—Ca-
ledonian Mercury, March 28, 1822.
It is not true, as stated in some of the Newspapers, that no
fatal duel has taken place in Scotland since Sir George Ramsay's
in 1790. Mr. Livingston shot Mr. Booth in the neighbourhood
of Aberdeen, about 1604. In 1810, Surgeon Cahill, 25th Foot,
shot Captain Rutherford, at Iladdington; and was afterwards
tried for murder before the High Court of Justiciary, when th.:
Jury, by a plurality of voices, found Mr. Cahill " Not Guilty."

JOHN FULLER, ESQ. V. RANDALL.

This was an action of trespass, for breaking and
entering the plaintiff's preserves, and destroying his
game after notice.
The plaintiff is a Gentleman of some celebrity, and
formerly had the honour of representing this County
in Parliament ; and the defendant is a Gentleman
farmer, residing in the plaintiff's neighbourhood, in
the parish of Dallington. Notice had been served
upoa the defendant in December, 1820, not to tres-
pass upon the plaintiff's preserves; in consequence of
imputed acts of aggression on previous occasions.
Three distinct acts of trespass were now proved to
' have taken place after the notice, namely, in Octo-
ber, November, and December last year. On one
I occasion the defendant had pursued a hare from his
own land into that of the plaintiff, and there bagged
his game; on another he sent his dogs into the plain-
I tiff's preserves, and killed a rabbit on a private road
of his own, which traversed the plaintiff's soil; and
on the third he was with his dogs on the plaintiff's
land, but no game was killed.
Mr. GURNEY, for the defendant, contended, that
the plaintiff was entitled merely to nominal damages.
The defendant, in the keenness of sport, had acci-
dentally trespassed on the plaintiff's land, which ad-
joined his own, and certainly never meant to insult
the plaintiff by a wanton trespass, as was very fre-
quently the practice on such occasions. There was,
therefore, no ground for anything more than nomi-
nal damages.
Mr. Justice PARRS charged the Jury, that they
must certainly find their verdict for the plaintiff, but
told them that it was only a case for nominal damages.
The Jury retired for about three quarters of an
hour, and found their verdict for the plaintiff—Da-
mages ; costs 40s.

TRIESTE, JULY so.'

We have now received from Hydra and Spezzia
official accounts of the 6th of July, published by the
Greek Admiralty, which state the following particu-
lars respecting the great Turkish fleet :

Blown urn-The Admiral's ship, of 130 guns, called the
Standard of Victory.
SET ow Fias—Three ships of the line, which afterwards went
to the bottom, because terror and confusion paralyzed all the en-
deavours of the Turks to extinguish the flames.
flux Aosoutro, near Tchesme, seven frigates, of which the
greater part of the crews were drowned.
Of the third expedition, which sailed from Con-
stantinople on the 4th of June, 16 ships are taken by
the Greeks, and the rest blockaded near Tchesnie,
and measures are preparing to destroy them. 'l'hus
concurring accounts from the ArchiFelago announce
the successive destruction of parts of the great ar-
mada which was to subdue Greece. The conse-
quences of this great event may be incalculable. A
panic terror has seized the Turks in Selo : they hasten
in crowds to Asia, and the confusion is said to be
infinite. In the Greek Islands an expedition is pte•
paring against Candia.

THE AMERICAN NAVY.

The Government of the United States is paying
the strictest attention to everything which relates''
either directly or indirectly to their navy. By the
last Papers we learn, that a frigate of the largest
class, to be called the Susquehannah, is neatly ready
to be launched at Philadelphia. The keel of a ship
that stay carry 140 glans, it is said, is also about to
be laid down there. The former is covered with a
roof, similar to the mode adopted of late years in
this country, as will be the latter. " Neither of them
(it is added) will Le speedily launched, unless the re-
lations of oar country should be materially changed."
From the following extract it would aka appear,
that they are equally alert to the preservation of their
future resources for the supply of materials for an
extensive navy, as if they feared their own immense
forests proving insufficient, they may resort to their
newly-acquired territory of Florida :

PARSONS' HOOPING COUGH lOWDERS.

FEW Diseases have been found more perplexing
than the Hooping Cough, and the Medicines usually ad-
r.liolstered for this alarming Complaint having proved totally
ineffectual, Mr. PARSONS is induced, after several years tape-
rielce of its efficacy, to offer his Medicine to the Public as a
safe and certain Remedy.
The Patient will soon be relieved from that convulsive affec-
tion termed Ifooping ; and by persevering strictly according to
the Directions, two or three Packets have almost invariably
been found sufficient to effect a certain Cure. It may be ad.
'ministered with perfect safety to Children of the moat tender

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, NOV.II.

MURRAY O. TRU SOL OP STAIR.
This was an action on a bond given by Lord Stair,
when Mr. Dalrymple, to the party of whom the pre-
sent plaintiff is administrator, conditioned for the
payment of two thousand pounds, at the expiration of
six months after the death of his uncle. At the trial
before the Lord Chief Justice, two grounds of defence
were set up ; first, that the bond was given ?h substi-
tution for bills, arising out of a gambling transaction,
and fraudulently endorsed by a person who received
thew• for a special purpose ; and second, that the
bond was not delivered absolutely, but as an escrow,
being deposited with Mr. Saunders, the solicitor of
Mr. Dalrymple, on condition that it should not be
given to Murray, till the death of Lord Stair. The
first ground of defence failed entirely : and on the
second it was proved that the bond was executed with
no qualtying expressions, though it was understood
that it was to be held by Saunders until the death of
the uncle. It was afterwards agreed between Saun-
ders and Murray, that the former should also retain it
as an indemnity against any loss which might arise
from his own situation as security for Mrs. Mur-
ray ; but subsequently, and before the deitth of Lord
Stair, Saunders yielded to Murray's entreaties, and
gave the instrument into his hands. The Lord Chief
Justice held, that as the deed was absolutely de-
livered, no mere understanding could be suffered to
prevail so as to make it an escrow, and directed a
verdict for the plaintiff.
Mr. SCARLETT now moved for a, Rule to shew
cause why this verdict should not be set aside and a
nonsuit entered, on the ground that no precise form
of words was necessary to the delivery of a deed as
an escrow, but that if it was previously understood
to be given only on condition, its effect would be li-
mited by the intention of the parties. In the case of
Johnson v. Baker, 4 llarnewall and Alderson, 440, it
was holden that where, before the execution of a com-
position deed, it was agreed in the presence of the
surety for the payment of the composition, that it
should be void unless all the creditors executed it,
and where the surety, at the same interview, after-
wards executed the deed in the ordinary mode, after
which it was delivered to one of the creditors, in
order that he might get it executed by the lest, this
was to be regarded as a delivery of the deed as an
escrow, and as all the creditors did not execute it,
the surety was not bound. This case, the Learned
Counsel contended, was in principle exactly similar
to the present.
The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE said, that on this case
Mr. Scat lett might take a Rule to shew cause.

Viscount Montmorency,whose departure for France
had been announced, will not set off till the com-
mencement of next month.
The Count Zatouc and the Count Pralormo, Mi-

Sovereign. Orders have been given for the reception
of these august travellers. The King of Naples will
not come till the first week of November. Prince
Nletternich has received dispatches by a courier from

Lord Portsmouth, and was, at present, unable to act
for him, through ,the medium of certain Trustees,.
nominated and appointed in a certain Power of At-
torney executed by his Lordship, although certain
of the creditors of that Nobleman are suing him for
debt ; so that until this question upon the lunacy
shall have been disposed of, his Lordship must re-
main unprotected by his professional agents.
The LORD CHANCELLOR said, the object.he had in
view, when he gave his intimation of the allowance
of access of medical men to Lord Portsmouth, had
been frustrated and defeated. But no person was to
have access to that Nobleman between this and
Monday next.
Mr. Holm wished to know, whether any of the
Physicians should be allowed to see the Noble Earl
in that time?

The LORD CHANCELLOR." Physicians only who
have read all the affidavits, and shall have seen me,
too, first."

Mr. Holm said, certainly, nothing else would be
asked. The professional men here engaged were all
respectable.
The LORD CHANCELLOR.--" It is comfortable to
reflect that, in this case, all the professional men are
perfectly respectable."

BOXING.

Yesterday a fight for a belly-full and what could be made took
place at Soutirdea Common, Portsmouth, between a chair batte,.
mender of the name of Crippr, a known good little one, and a
marine of the name of Ziton, who was supposed by theScorlets
win an out-sod-outer.

The weight of the men was equal (about 10 stone), and It
was a pretty stand-up fight, without anything like bugging, and
lasted an hour and five minutes.

To-go through the whole of the rounds would be tiresome s
chi chair bottom mender, took the lead, and kept it for the whole,
Of the 40 rounds.

The marine was evidently anxious to prove himself a Brits's,
and several times endeavoured to illustrate the good old English
song of " Britons strike home," especially in the 21st round,
when he came dancing up to the scratch and said " (inks to
mend ;" " Bellows to mend !" replied Chairey, and doubled
him up in a heap by a victualler.
As it was, Chairey had his work to do before he could take
the fight out of his adversary ; and when it was over, a know-
ing one said —" there was nothing the matter ; that they were
both geseerpippins, but that Chairey was not to be had."

ROME, OCTOBER 26.

The King of the Two Sicilies arrived here in good
health on the evening of the 23d, at Albano ; the
Marquis Fuscaldo, his Minister at ltome,went to pay
his Majesty homage. His Majesty was received on
the part of the Holy See by the Chamberlain cf hi;
Holiness. The arrival of his Majesty was announced
by a salute from 100 pieces of cannon. A troop of
civic hussars escorted the Monarch as far as the Fla-
minian gate, the entrance to the city, where he was
again saluted by artillery posted at the Pincio. As
the Holy Father was slightly indisposed, his Majesty,
not wishing to disturb him, after informing himself
of his health, immediately pursued his journey to
Verona, with the intention of reaching Narni the
same evening.

A,LEXANDERS and Co. desire to acknowledge
the cordial support which they have experienced from
their Friends and the I'ublic generally, in furtherance of the de-
cisive measures to which they deemed it expedient to resort in
consequence of the robbery of the Ipswich Mail ; and at the
same time they respectfully solicit that the co-operation of the
Public, to which they feel indebted for the speedy restoration
of a large proportion of the stolen property, may be extended, to
prevent the circulation of those Notes which still remain in the
hands of the robbers. This will be best effected by continuing
to refuse all the old circulation or black lettered Notes (the new
being printed in Red Ink), under the firm of Alexander, and
Co. Ipswich, Woodbridge, Fladleigh, and Alanningtree, and in
every instance to refer the holden of them to Gee of the above
Banks for payment.

NOVEMBER 5.

This day, at one o'clock, a grand conference was
held at the house of Prince Metternich, where all the
hi. 7,11 functionaries attended in full assembly. Various
periods al e assigned for the duration of the Congress,
but the prevailing opinion is, that it %%ill not last be-
yond the middle of December, and that within fifteen
days from the present time, the several Ministers will
decide upon the final result. It is certain that the
manly firmness of the Duke of Wellington, in oppos-
ing propositions which he considers to be at variance
with the interests of his country, is thought one of the
greatest obstacles to an early conclusion. he Noble
Duke, however, is resolved to maintain his ground to
the last, and will not, in any instance, suffer himself
to be betrayed into a temporising policy.

NOVEMBER 1.

It was yesterday morning announced by public
rotification from the Office (f the Municipality, that
t!e Sardinian King would enter the town in state,
::bout three o'clock, and the inhabitants were conse-
fluently requited to make the usual public prepara-
tiors fur his M kty's reception. Accordingly, the
walls of the dtiferent hou-es soon began to display
draiery of all descriptions ; and wherever satin or
6m:a ,e did not arrest the eye, ragged muslin, dirty
linen. laded calico, and ccarse canvas, were exhibited.
About a quarter before three o'clock, the Emperor of
A11.57.!1!, attended by his Grand Chamberlain, Count
Chuchera, drove out through the Milan gate, in an
open ca:ria:!;e, drawn by six grey hones, and proceeded
on at a rapid pace to receive his Sardinian Majesty.
It was alinoit four before the Emperor's state car-
riage reac% el the gate, and when it came up, the
King an.! (treeu of Sardinia were discovered seated
together c:i the same side, and his Imperial Majesty
directly or polite. Both the Sovereign, were dressed
the Au :than uniform, and the Queen wore a light
travei:ing-dress, with a blue satin hat turned up in
front. Charles. Felix has by no means a prepossess-
ing con:ten:ince; his teeth are prominent, his mouth
extremely large, and his nose, w hich is crooked and
med, -cans as if it were wrenched from its natu-
ral position in the face. The beauty of the Queen, if
she ever Lai any, has long been on the wane. The
Royal Parr appeared to be in excellent spirits, for they
laugl;ed heat ; but the Emperor was not observed
to Aix one instant from the dignified gravity which
he i. always known to maintain. The cart iage was
iarne that had brought the Emperor of Russia
Lao town on the day of his public entry; and equipped
precisely in the same manner, there being six bay
ith rich brass harness, and a rigs aiber of Im•
rrial Pages in splendid liveries of scarlet and gold.
—As soon as their Majesties came opposite the Palace
of the Emperor of Russia, which stood directly in the
line of the procession, they stopped for an instant
merely to bow in expressive acknowledgment for the
/ery courtly inclination of the head which that
august Personage made from his window as they
passed along. The cavalcade then proceeded straight
forward through the town till it reached the other
side of the Adige, where the carriages separated in
eifferent directions, and his Sardinian Majesty, on
..lighting at his Palace, received visits almost at the
same moment from the Emperor of Russia, the King
ti Prussia, the Grand Duke of Tuscany, the Viceroy,
the Archduchess Maria Louisa, the Duke of Modena,
tLe Ciown Prince of Sweden, Prince Leopold of
Sicily, and from the principal Ministers of the seve-
ral Missions.

FRANKFOTZT, NOV. 7.

The news from Greece is still contradictory.
Earlier accounts froth Thev,aly stated, that Jussuf
Aga had arrived at Larissa, with the Turkish garri-
son of the citadel of Corinth, and added, that the
Turks, and Chourschid Paella himself, were greatly
surprised at the scrupulous fidelity with which the
Greeks had observed the terms of the Capitulation ;
but there are new accounts from Larissa, of the 13th
of October, which make no mention whatever of the
arrival of Jussuf Aga and the garrison of Corinth,
and it is therefore apprehended that the news of the
surrender of that fortress, which would be so im-
portant to the Greeks, was premature. If, however,
It is true, as reported from Belgradeithat Chourschid
had left Larissa, and retied to Bitoglie, the Turks
who may still be in the citadel of Corinth, can hardly
hope to be relieved.

Yesterday the general gaze was fixed on the vene-
rable King of Naples, while he entered the town with
precisely the same ceremonial and the same display
as his Royal brother of the North of Italy. The
troops were led out at ten o'clock; but it was nearly
one bei'ore a discharge of artillery announced to the
Veronese that his Neapolitan Majesty had arrived at
the gate of the Corso, through which he was to enter.
The streets in the meantime were crowded with spec-
tators: The King, as being the guest of the Emperor,
sat in the State carriage on the right of his Imperial
)Majesty, and Prince Leopold took his place on the
opposite ►ide. The whale three were dressed in blue
•nifiirm, and wore several Orders. The King is a
benevolent and placid-looking old man, whose hoary
In cks proclaim his lengthened years," and the linea-
ments of his countenance are as truly Bourbon as any
t` at ever characterised me of the family. In their
Prestress aloug the Corso they rr ere greeted by his

• • •
Prussian ktjesty, who, with the tivo youag Princes,'
' his sons, stood on the balcony, dressed ih full uniform.
The Duke of Wellington has taken up as strong a
position in the field of diplomacy, as he ever took in
the field of battle:. and he defies all the generalship'
of the ablest tacticians to dislodge him. His Grace
has been recently heard to say, in allusion to the dif-
ficulties of conquering Spain and Portugal-4:Those
countries have already teazed one of the greatest
masters in the art of war, wirh seven hundred thou-
sand man at his command, and they would now teaze
another, with double the number." I understand
that France is the,only one of the four Gieat Powers
that is deaf to all arguments for the abolition of the
Slave Trade. The Duke of... Wellington is doing
everything in his power to bring the French Cabinet
to an understanding more in consonance with justice
and humanity upon the subject; but there is too
much reason to fear that his efforts will not be at-
tended with the desired success. With respect to thd
Austrian Loan, however, the prospect is more favour-
able ; and it is thought that something in the way of
liquidation will he effected. The King of France has
been invited to attend the Congress, but nobody ever
expects to see his Most Christian Majesty in Verona.

NOVEMBER 4.

Saturday passed sway without any public affiir.
—The Duke of Wellington was out at an early Ipuir
in the morning, and walked through different parts
of the town, apparently in excellent health and spirits.
About one o'clock his Grace attended a Council of
Ministers, at the house of Prince Metternich, and it
is supposed that the topics discussed had reference
to the grand sitting, which is to take place to-
morrow, on the subject of the present political state
of Italy.
The Russians, after all their thenaces and parade,
and all the blustering cf Count Strogonoff, have made •
but a sorry business of their quarrel with the Turks.,
Time is no doubt whatever but they would have re-
sorted to hostilities in spite of all the remonstrances ,
of the mediating Powers, if they had not found that
the Mussulman army was much better prepared to
take the field than their own. They are now in their
chagrin, holding back to see whether they will be
invited to send an Ambassador to Constantinople
once more ; but, like the peasant on the bank, they
may wait till ail the water in the river flows down—
they may wait to eternity, before the Sublime Porte
will deign to sue for anything from the Cabinet of
St. Petcrsburgh.
