tison had 'set fire to the suburbs, and endeavoured to
maintain itielf on the rains. Two Russian battalions
were ordered to drive the Turks out of them; they
penetrated into the streets, which were chnaked up with
rubbi►h, with their muskets unloaded, and charged
the Turks at the point of the bayonet, while the
fortress fired at them. with mortars. The Turks
who could not reach the fortress were killed, or
taken prisoners. The number of the latter is said
to be 160 men. Another party of Turks, which was
endeavouring to collect provisions, was also taken by
the Russians. It is reported, we know not on what
authority, that some Cossacks had been brought prison-
ers into Brailow, and by the Pacha's orders hanged on
the walls of the fortress in sight of the Russian army ;
that this cruelty had so incensed the Russian soldiers,
that they all demanded to be led to the assault to re-
venge the death of their brethren, and they were with
difficulty restrained. The bombardment of the fortress
was immediately began. It was feared that the taking
of Brailow would be attended with a dreadful massa-
cre, and that the cruelty shown to defenceless prisoners
would be punished with extreme severity.—ifigemeirre

DOVER, APRIL 24.

- -
• Arrived at one o'clock, P.M. in the Crusader packet,
Captain HAIIILLOIC. from Calais, Ms Excellency Le Marquis de
llssamas, Minister from the Court of Vienna, to the Emperor of
the Beams, accompanied by his Secretary Le Chevalier ALUM/.
They took refreshments at Wright's Hotel, and then set off in
haste for London, it being the Marquis's intentions to embark for
the Brazils without loss of time, in fulfilment of bit mission.
The Crusader left Dover withl passengers this morning, at seven
o'clock, a as. for Calais, and returned to Dover with Le Marquis
de RSV:MM. and Le Chevalier ALMEIDA, at one o'clock, performing
both passages In six hours—a celerity which, W years ago, would
have been deemed impossible and incredible.
ANOTHER LETTER OF THE FAME DATE.
A considerable bens,tion was created this day in tee
minds of the good people of Dover, by the unexpected return of
the steam-packet Crusader, which left here only this morning at
seven o'clock, with a freight of carriages, horses. &c. for Calais,
where she landed then; ; and, after taking on hoard his Excellency
the Marquis If et taut (Ambassador from the Brazils), Le Chevalier
A Lamina (on his way to London from Vienna), &c. arrived iu the
offing at one o'clock—a short space of sit hours only to perform
this double voyage.
After landing his Excellency and suite, who went to Wright's
Hotel and Skip Inn, the Crusader immediately returned to Calais,
whence, with the grease-t possible ease, she could make her fourth
v:.yage,an.‘ reach here by six o'clock. From no other point of the
coast could these c%prclitinu• trips be made, and hence the great
at:ti natur.d prt-teretice ever given to this port.
Our bay wore an uousu.dly appearance—no less than four
.tram-p-ckes were arriving from, and starting for, the opposite
coast. The beach was crowded by must of the rank, beauty, and
eJsbion now in the town; and well may we be proud of the num-
.,e.rs tioW those delightful situations the Marine Par ,de,
Chr, nee and Guildletd ahem elegant residences have, in
the 1.." space of three yr.irs, taken the places of bshing houses,
which letter have mudevly retired. and now abundantly coats'.
bum to the wants and luxutie, of all cl.wes.
As his Excellency started immediately tor town, It will have
taken him ilo more than eh yen hours to perform the voyage and
journey front Calais to London.

GRAND ROWING MATCH FOR Imo SOV&
' The admirers of aquatic sports were yesterday fully gratified. A
match bad been made between sight Gentlemen of London and
eight Gentlemen of Otford. to row in two eight.eared matters,
from Westminster Bridge to Putney Bridge. The aevelty of such
a match could not fall to be highly attractive; besides, the celebrity
of the tandidetes put all idea of any thing but an out and out treat in
the back grouod. The London amateurs were picked out of the
crack Aquatic Clubs. The celebrity of the Oxford Scholars has
ever been proverbial hem their great practice and peculiar skilL•
Bets to the amount of thousands derided upon the issue of the
match. At half-past one both boars appeared at the starting ,place.
Both parties seemed in high spirits, and confident of success.—;
Betting was S to 4 on the Londoners.
On the signal being given, the boats started off with the greatest
rapidky. The Loodoners bad the lead slightly at starting; but in
coming to Chelsea Reach the admirable steerage of Mitchel gave
his party a decided advantage, and they continued gaining slightly
upon their opponents at livery stroke. The Oxford crew Oiled
both nicotine and strong, but could not get the lead. The steerage
of the Gentleman belonging to their party was also excellent. and
relined a thorough knowledge of the river. The match was finally
woo by the Londoner& in fine style, they beating their opponents by
fifty Yards or more.

Yesterday morning, the Wheatsheaf Brewery, in
Daley-street, Rosemary-lane, was wholly destroyed by
fire, owing to the burstiog of a boiler: The accident
happened about half-past eight o'clock, and. the brewery
burnt with the utmost rapidity, until . nothing but the
walls temained:stseding. .The supply of , stater was
short, owing to the turncork sot being in the way. The
firemen then played upon the building with small beer,
but the Loses could not be got under until the wood.
west had. been destroyed. The stock of ale and beer
oa the, wishes was not very large, but nearly the
whole knifes destroyed. . . . •

FRENCH PAPERS.

t : ~.

FROM THE MESSAGER DRS CHAMBRES, JUNE 18.
PARIS, Juu is.

The Ordinances respecting the Ecclesiastical Schools,
which we published yesterday, have excited, we will not
say the opposition, which is a regular and Parliamentary
thing, but the rage of the Gatele de France and the
Quotidienne. The King's Government will not reply
to such attacks, which are beneath it. We intend only
to demonstrate in a series of articles, that the Ordi-
nances which have provoked those two Journals to ar-
guments which are rendered ridiculous by'their violence,
are conformable to the public law of the kingdom, to
the maxims of the Church of France, and that the
Prelate, one of his Majesty's Ministers, who signed the
Ordinances, has more betrayed the duties of the
Episcopacy (we use the very pious, temperate, and de..
corous language of the biotic erne) than the Keeper
I, of the Seals has viohiptche Jaw of the kingdom, the
rexectnienutcrhich tg confided to himliy his Majesty.
June 19.—The Emperor of Russia, on the 27th ult.

Before he departed he receive&the news of an advan.
tap gained by..the Russian fleet before Anapa, where
a Turkish flotilla with provisions, ammunition, and'
troops, was taken. Twelve hundred prisoners and six
standards were captured. Anapa has been bombarded
for thirteen days, and the suburbs were already de-
stroyed. In the meantime, General Paskewitch is march-

postcTipt:
" An official dispatch from Brigadier Sebastian Jose
de Mora, Governor of the fortress of Almeida, dated
the 28th ultimo, has just arrived, by which the Provi-
sional Junta has received the important news of the
garrison of that place having taken the noble and loyal
resolution, of uniting their efforts to those of the brave
troops who determined to maintain the rights and in-
stitutions of the magnanimous Peter IV. On the 28th
there were repeated salutes of artillery, and a grand pa-
rade of the numerous and brilliant garrison, whose
bands of music immediately commenced plAying the

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.

At the Bristol Assizes, Ann Harris, alias Grace, alias
Moss, about 65 years of age, was indictei fnr bigamy.
The prisoner was married to her first husband in 1788,
but she shortly after separated from him. In 1799 she
was married to her second husband, who died in 1806,
and in 1812 she was married to Moss, her third hus-
band, the relations of whom had instituted the proceed-
ing against the old woman, in consequence of . having
met with some obstruction in proving under the hos-
band's will.—The prisoner was found Guilty.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, Aran. 12.

Mr. Lloyd, a retail brewer, of Stingo-lane,la*
bonne, appealed against . the conviction of Edmund
Griffiths, Esq. a Magistrate of Mary-la-bonne Office.
Mr. ADOLPHUS, who was retained by the appellant,
stated that his client retailed beer of his own brewing,
but was not allowed by law to suffer it to be drunk on
his own premises. He was prepared to show to the
Court and Jury, that the fine imposed by the Magis-
trates (201) was obtained by the trickery of the infor-
mers, and that facility was afforded to such individuals
to extract the hard earnings from the pockets of indus-
trious persons.
Atkinson, Johnson's assistant, stated, that on the even-
ng of the Sd March he drank a pint of beer on the pre•
miles of the appellant, who received the money for it.
Mr. ADOLPHus questioned the witness, who prevatj,-
toted so much, that a strong feeling of indignation was
expressed generally throughout the Court. It appeared
from his answers, that he went in for the purpose of
laying an information; and while the attention of Mr.
Lloyd was occupied another say, he took the oppor-
tunity of drinking off the beer, which would not have
been suffered by Mr. Lloyd if be had not been thus in-
veigled into the grasp of the law.
Mr. Conn. expressed his indignation, and, addressing
the Jury, said that it was plain that the informer had
exercised a degree of low cunning to attain his object.
The conviction was quashed.
Mr. ALLEY, who was retained for the informer., re-
marked, that he knew Mr. Atkinson was an excellent
sharp-shooter, and he' as not astonished at the ee:ision
Of the Court.

lIAMBURGEI, Aran. 7.

It was affirmed at Vienna on the Slst of March, that
news bad been received there that the Turkish batteries
at Navarin had sunk the English ship of the line sta-
tioned before that harbour, upon which three Turkish
ships of the line and five transports had entered the bay.
Hatalmorgh Papers, April 8.

The Algemeine Zeitung to the Bth inst. has also been
received. An article from Odessa mentions the arrival
there of vessels from Constantinople, with limited fir-
mans for passing the Bosphorus. Great exertions were
making by the Russian Government for the opening of
the campaign. The following are extracts

FROM—THE POLISH FRONTIERS, 111 Amen 21.

A German paper gives under this head the follow.
ing article :
"The approaching passage of thePtuth by theßnssian
army must probably be considered merely as military
demonstration, rather than the first act of a new war.
It is reported that the Cab'net of St. Petersburgh, in its
circular note on this subject, has assured the other Powers
that it will, for the present, confine itself to the military
occupation of the Panciplities, it being the intention of
Russia td give the.. Porte a certain time, within which
it must carry into effect the stipulations of the Treaty of
Ackermann, which are not yet executed. The Danube
will not be passed till the Poste shows that it means
to persist in its faithless and inimical conduct towards
Russia." Another Journal observes, that the Guards,
which were to leave in April. could not reach the
Proth before the middle of July.

ODESSA, MARCH 21

We have news from Constantinople to the 15th of
this month, from which it appears that no change had
taken place there. The ships that have arrived here
from the: city have limited firmans for passing the
Bosphorus. The ships that have been hired here by the
Government have sailed, partly to Sebastopol and partly
to the Danube, to carry ammunition and provisions.
The commencement of hostilities seems to be at hand.
No goods have arrived here from the interior of the
Empire for this week past, the Government having put
all the draught horses in requisition for the conveyance
of military stores.

TH E KING.

WiXDSOR, ANIIL IS. —This morning Divine Service
was performed by the Revo4lr. SEYMOUR, at the Royal
Lodge, before his MAJZaTY,. his distinguished Guests,
and the Royal Houteholci. It is expected that the
Dicke of Doan? and Sir HERBERT TAYLOR will leave
the Royal Lodge this evening, as it is definitively ar•
ranged that hos Meiturry will take an early dinner at
the Lodge to-mortow, and then leave for St. James's
Palace, every preparation being complete for that
purpose. On ri Way morning Sir HERZERT TAYLOR
arrived at the Itnal Lodge on a visit to his MAJESTY.
In tie evening the KING give a grand dinner party, at
which were present—.
The Duke of Dorset, Earl Dudley, Earl and Countess Harcourt,
Lord and Lady Maryborough, the Lord Steward, the Hon. Miss
Bagot, Sir Herbert Taylor, Sir Andrew Barnard, and the remainder
of his Majesty's distinguished Suite.

Yesterday forenoon Earl DUDLRY left the Royal
Locke, having previously hid a private audience of
his MAJESTY. At two o'clock the pony phaetons being
in attendance, the KIND, accompanied 14 the Duke of
DORSET, the Lord Steward, Sir Heasawe tivima, and
Sir ANDREW BARNARD, proceeded through the Great
Park, the plantation attached to Frogmore Lodge, and
the Little Park, to Windsor Castle, alighting at the
south-east entrance from the quadrangle. They were
here received by Mr. WYATVILLS, who, conducting
them up the grand staircase, accompanied them
through the principal suite of apartments. These
pr incely rooms had for this occasion been decorated with
the magnificent furniture recently arrived, and in one of
them a model of a marble statue of the present KING
was temporarily erected. This chef d'cruvre of modern
art is consigned to the talented Mr. CHANTREY, and
'will represent our beloved SOVEREIGN habited in the
fall robes of a Mon Arch, wearing the insignia of the
Gayer, and other principal Orders. The next grand
sitfiaction was the new Music Room, which was tem-
porarily fitted up for his MAJESTY and his visitors, in
order that experiments might be made to prove how
fir its construction harmonized with the principles
q( sound. On the preceding day his MAJESTY'S
private band had assembled in the same room for
a Ovate rehearsal, and the almost overpowering
sensations excited by their commencing the full chorus
of the national anthem, will not soon be forgotten by
their delighted auditors. This apartment is situated in
the angle between Brunswick Tower and the principal
dining and drawing rooms, the approaches being so
constructed, that whichever apartment is selected as the
immediate spot for Royal festivity, the aid of harmony
is equally applicable. The band were yesterday in lull
attendance, and, by the personal direction of his MA-
JESTY, performed several airs, which were designedly
varied, to fur ni sh• a correct idea of the capabilities of the
apartment for its destined purpose. The Knee, accom•
panied by his guests and suite, next visited St. George's
Hall, and the new Bail-zoom (the ci-devant Guard-
chamber)—and, after a stay of some hours, returned to
the Royal Lodge by the Long Walk.
