The following accounts have been received at
Lloyd's, this morning, of his MAJESTY :
" MILFORD, SEPTEMBER 11.

" The Royal squadron, with the KING, sailed this
morning, about six o'clock, and was clear of St. Ann's
Head about eight, A. At. The wind being about west,
we do not think it possible to get round the land,
therefore they may run up the Bristol Channel."
Another letter, same date, says—" At five A.rt. left
this road, his MAJESTY the KING, with his squadron,
cottsisting of sixteen sail of ships, brigs, and cutters,
wind at W.N.W. moderate breeze. Eleven A.M. wind
at west, and every appearance of a southerly wind.—
'No P. M. wind S.W." _ _

" BRISTOL, SEPTEMBER 12.

" The Wellington packet arrived in this port this
morning from Dublin, and saw the Royal squadron
yesterday morning, at ten o'clock, about eight or ten
miles from the mouth of Milford Haven, standing
across the Channel, with the wind at W.S.W."

The Jury appointed to inquire into the circum-
stances attending the death of Richard How'', have,
after fourteen days arduous investigation, returned
an unanimous verdict of MANSLAUGHTER against all
the Officers and privates of the Life Guards who were
on duty on the day of the melancholy occurrence, be-
tween Tybut n-turnpike and Park-lane. It remains, of
course, with the Regiment of Guards themselves, or
rather with his Royal Highness the COMUANDER-IN-

CHIEF, to determine whether the men so implicated
shall surrender themselves to abide the consequences
of the verdict which has been thus solemnly recorded.
in no other way, that we are aware of, can ultimate
satisfaction be done to public justice; and from the
opinion which we entertain of the good sense and
constitutional feeling which actuate his Royal High-

tress the Duke of YORK, we cannot allow ourselves
to doubt that such will be the course pursued. To
let the matter rest where it does, merely because the
Jut y, from ignorance of the numes of the men ac-
tually on duty, were unable to find a verdict against
them individually, would be taking a sort of advan-
tage, foreign to the manly and high-spirited charac-
ter of the British soldier; while the voluntary sur-
render of those concerned, to take their trial for the
offence with which they stand charged, will shew a
reject for the laws, which it is peculiarly becoming
in them, as part of the military force of a free people,
to entertain.

We are happy at the same time to remark, that
this call of justice is on all sides perfectly unmixed
with any vindictive feeling towards the individuals
who are implicated by the verdict. Every one seems
abundantly sensible of the cruel situation in which
the troops were placed, on the occasion which led to
the catastrophe—of the good-tempered resolution
and manly forbearance which they displayed, till
provoked by assaults beyond all ordinary power of
endurance, to employ the deadly weapons with which
they were entrusted; and we are sure the Public in
general will view with regret whatever perscnal suf-
fering or inconvenience may be brought upon any of
them for crusequences, the moral guilt of which lies
not with them, but on the heads of those who em-
ployed them, and whose strong headed folly seemed
prepared for events even a hundred times more dis-
astrous than those which actually occurred.
We refer our Readers to the extracts which we
have given in another part, for the opinions expressed
by some of our leading 'contemporaries on this pain-
ful subject.
The Paris Papers of Monday arrived this forenoon.
They bring intelligence which, if it may be relied
upon, is of the utmost importance. A private letter
from Augsburg, of the sth of September, is quoted,
which says, A courier from Vienna has arrived to-
day with the important news that the two Russian
armies, comma►tded by Generals SACKEN-OsTEN,
ar.d Wit IGEN sTEIN, are in full movement since the
arrival of an extraordinary courier dispatched
from Saint Petersburgh. Baron STROGONOFF will
remain personally at Odessa. Ile will wait there
for new orders from the Russian Government.—
The Aulic Council of War dispatched, on the 30th of
August last, several Estafettes to the Generals in
command of the Austrian troops cantoned in Tran-
sylvania and in the Bannat of Temeswar." A Frank-
fort article, of the -Ith Sepember, adds, that the Em-
peror ALEXANDER is immediately expected at Odessa,
whence he will repair to the head-quarters of Gene-
ral WITTGENSTEIN ; and that a Deputation, com-
posed of the most distinguished Greeks, is on its way
to Odessa, in order to supplicate the EMPEROR to ac-
cept the Protectorate of Greece.

Letters from Constantinople of the 10th August,
and from Smyrna of the 2d Augusta received this
mo:ning, mention, that all the shops are open, and
that business is carried on as usual. The corn ships
are permitted to sail without interruption.
The report of the destruction of the Turkish fleet
by the Greeks is stated to be without foundation.
