FRANKFORT, Dec. U.

Letters from Vienna received today, confirm the
departure of the Ambassadors from -Constantinople,
though the Austrian Observer does not mention k; thef
also confirm the burning of the Greek flev,. and add
that Lord Cochrane was brooght on board the French,
Admiral's Alp, but was released after baying pledged
his Word of honour not to undertake anything against
the Turks.

It is singular that the Observer of Trieste of the 18th,
does nut mention this news, which gives good reason to
desk its authenticity.

FRANKFORT. Doc. 28.

- We have received to-day; by express, the Austria's
pisserver of the 24th. -To refute the reports spread by
the French and English Jo(zrnals, the Observer pub-

Porte, by Same Ottinfels„ to induce it to accept the
proposals of the Allied. Powers.

CJIIMMICIAL INFkI..LIGENL`E-THIS DAY

The Suosa Market has been In a state of considerabli activity
during lite whole
Qf the week. In the afternoon of Tunis, last
the sales amounted to 1,000 casks, and on Wednesday and yester-
day thy porch tses were to the same effect ; so that more than 5,000
cask, have been disposed of since the commencement-of the week.
The deliveries continue extremely small ; the prices have only
slightly edvauced. Phis morning very little businesa has been done:
The market is well attended, and before the day closes business is
expt tied to be btbk.

Othei ankles of Colonial produce have also attracted more at-
tention this week than of late. Coffee finds purchasers at the for-
mer quotation : but the business done in this article is not exten-
sive. The stock of Coffee in the London Docks at the end of the
year rather exceeded 7,000 bags. The present prices are from
Its. to 12s. under those obtained at this period last year.
Rex.—The stock of Rum in the West India Docks at the end
of the last year was very nearly the same as at the close of 1824,
but under that in 1825 by about 9,000 puncheons and hogsheads.
The present prices are higher than at the end of 1826. Business
during the week has slightly revived. Prices are a shade better.
In Sete= there is no material alteration. Pimento maintains Its
price, the stock being much smaller than at the end of 1826. The
exports of Cinnamon and Cloves are pretty large.
There has been a good demand for Irmo for exportation, at
prices from 3d. to 4d. higher than given at the last sale at the East
India House. The deliveries from the Warehouse have been un-
usually large lately. In the week ending last night they have
amounted to 55,134 hits. The sale at the East India House on the
Lid inst. is looked for With much interest.
Satmestaz has attracted rather more attendee tlpie week, owing
to the tenor of the late news kom the East of Europe —but specu-
lation in it has not revived. The prices may be quoted about. 255.
The deliveries la the last week have been 1,437 Cwt. The'East
India Company have declared 500 tons fee sale.

IntWoot. there is a good deal doing at present, but not at any
material advance to price. The imports from Hambro' have much
encreased lately, having in the last seven days amounted to upwards
of 265.000 lbs. The deliveries in the same space of time have been
about 290,000 lbs.

In the Sax Trade since the coMmencement of the present year
there has been a considerable degree of activity, and as advance in
some descriptions has amounted to from is. to U. 6d. per lb.—
Italian Raw, is in great demand, the Manufacturers being eager
purchasers for the Spring trade. The mkt. of Raw Silks on hand,
although not large, is not nearly so great as at this period last year.
This observation applies more forcibly to East India Raw Silks.—
The Sale at the India House in February is therefore expected to
go off at even higher prices than tbe September Sale. The impor-
tation of French manufactures is very limited at present.
Russian produce remains much the same. Tallow at from
375. 9d. to 38s. Flax has been imported freely last weak. Hemp
on demand, but thistles (of which the-delivery this week has been
32,195 lbs.; are heavy. The stock of Tallow about 38,000 casks,

FIGHT BETWEEN HARRY GIDGEON AND JACK
LOCKE, FOR TEN POUNDS, YESTERDAY.
-41.--

Jack Locke is a Bristolian youth, about twenty years
of age, and having fought a few bye battles, he con-.
crived the notion of trying his fortune in the London
ring. His weight must be nearly nine stone, and in
height he stands over Harry at least two inches. Gid-
geon, the Hebrew, is A well known light weight, or
perhaps rather a feather weight man, who has fought
many hard battles, and rarely has entered the ring much
exceeding Bst.; but his little frame is as of a Hercules
in miniature, and in his best days it was not merely ap-
pearance, for he actually possessed powers far beyond
many of his weight and stature. It is ROW nearly five
years since he last peeled in public ; and, when it is
considered that he is on the borders of forty years of
age, it %ay seasonably be expected that his day is rather
'gone by; yet he it was that the Bristol Youth found. as
a customer for his debut in the London Fancy, and Old
Oak Common was selected for the scene of action. The
toads leading to the battle-field, and particularly the
favourite short cuts, were a: bad as any Macadamized
street in London, and the ditches rivalled in magnitude
the neighbouring canal. Even the kindly turf of the
old Common had changed its quality, and had more;
the appearance of a marsh, so that it was rather difficult
to find a spot at all tolerable for the scratch, but in
defiince of all unfavourable circumstances, at about
ten minutes to one o'clock the men shook hands and
made a beginning.—Locke was waited upon by Young
Josh. and Bill Blake; Ikey Nathan and Barney Aaron
went in with Gidgeon.
THE FIGHT.
On setting-to £6 to £4 was betting ott Gidgeen. He assumed*
serious mien, but Locke tried to be merry ever the matter, sod
grinned a laugh. Gidgem, on the attack, and Locke indecirdee
Harry hit for the body and kept out, but Jack not taken widish,
nvitation, made no bustle the more for it. Harry then rushes/to a
close, and the sristollan's in fighting told but lamely; Gidgeess bad
all the best of the play, and both were down.
The second round commenced with long sparring, and Hury
bad again to had on. Locke was out of distance repeatedly, and in
one or two returns which Gidgeon made, he stewed himself the
master judge of length. Jack at last made a rush and pinked the
Asia day-light of Gidgeon, that brought first claret.
. In the third round Gidgeon had the best of a rally, and drew
Jack's cork in an ampe torrent.
Ia She fourth, the only fighting was in a rally, in which Old-
germ's right hand did much mischief to the frontispiece of chair's-
what), who felt in the bustle; but be started immediately co hit-pins
again, and when Harry supposed the round was concluded, Locke
was at his work brisker than ever, but the Gidgeon downed him:
In the sth round, Locke stewed much punishment abut the
face ; he chiefly attempted a rush and close, to ease himself of Harry's
'jobbing propensities. but the little one had all the best of the in-
fighting. Locke's marks accumulated—his eyes puffed and black-
ened, and he appeared to have little fight about him.
In the 13th round, Gidgeon was the favourite, and the tgte 4.
the battle booked as certain. Jack, af the 14th. kept out, and they
had a stand up slashing tally; but there again Gidgeon had a shade
the best, and Locke was picked up at the trel incased in medopi,
his one ear comeletely stuffed.
•:.ht •
The 15th was tre:en mere of a slashing description than the peel
ceding; and then, for the first time, age sad staleness began so
skew in Gidgeon : he caught sever
skew (rain Locke, amil bed
his nose touched a little.
In the 16th, Locke improved In prospects still more, and Vlatry,
in proportion, fell off. The fight here underwent a complete change.
Locke practised his 'dashing freely afterwards, as he bad les, to fear
from Gidgeon's returns, although Harry stilt added a little more
now and data to the new features in the Bristol face; but the youth
stewed subsume, that Harry at length sat down upon his luck,
sad gays in, after fighting Dearly an hour, consisting of 53 rounds.

Acconnts from the Cape of Good Hope to the fith of
November, state that the Caffres had retired from the
English Se.tlements. The Lieutenant Governor still

We are requested to contradict an article that appeared
in the STAR, copied from a Morning Paper of Wed=
nesday, relative to a being killed at Drury Lane
Theatre. The boy is by no means seriously hurt, and
was yesterday attending his duties in his master's shop.
In order to bring down to the Lake of Lucerne the
wood from a large pine forest, on the skirts of Minant
Pilatus, 90004 were expended in erecting a slide of sin-
gular construction. Its length is Amu 44,000 English
feet, and the difference of its level at its two extremities
is about 2,600 feet. It is a wooden trough, *five feet
broad, and lour . deep. The large pines, with their
branches cut off, are placed one at a time in the slips,
and, descending by their own gravity, they acquire such
an impetus in their progress through the first, part 01
the slide, that they perform their jour nay of e ght mi e •
and a quarter in six minutes, and in wet weather in
three menu es. A trough ot a similar description is
e.ecred on an estate on the north side of the Danish
West India Island of Santa Crisz.-aud is used for the
purpose of transporting the sugar canes from the upper
part of the estate (which lays very high) to the valley,
and from its appearar:ce (torn the sea, although not of
equal length to the preceding, itA descent is still more
rapid ; it forms a very prrin:ncritobject in sailing past
the island.
