ADMIRALTY SESSIONS-.THIS DAY.

These Sessiois commenced this morning at Justice Hall, In lb*
Old Bailey, befdre•Lord STOWILL, and the Civilians, Drs. Patu.s.
arose, Piccass, and HAGGARD, for the trial of offences committed
en the high seas, within the jurisdiction of the Admiralty Court.
After the Grand Jury had herb sworn,
Lord Sorown.t. rose, and said, the. regular course of proceeding
was for him, first, to address the Grand Jury on the charge reposed
on them. The Calendar, said his Lordship, contained six trials, two
of which were of a most serious description—that of murder. One
for selling slaves, another for ill treatment towards a madder, and
two others for minor offences. His Lordship had no doubt they
would pay the strictest attention to those witnesses who wcwild be
brought before them, and .confine themselves to that prima facia
evidence, if be might so call It, before they returned a true biii.
With there observations he begged their immediate attention, and
the Grand Jury then retired to find the bills.

TRIESTE, Orroats IL

A Captain of a ship who arrived yesterday from
Tschesme, relates that on the 11th September there was
a pretty :hails action between Carambourun and Mity-
lene, between the Turkish and Greek fleets, from which
the former retreated, with great damage, to Mitylene.
The Greeks had set fire to the stern of the Admiral's
ship, but the Turks succeeded in extinguishing the
flames. The Greeks lost four of their fire ships on this
occasion. The same Captain learnt it Tschesme, that
the Perseverance steam-boat, had arrived at Napoli di
Romania to be fitted out and sent to join the fleet
with all possible dispatch. Off Cerigo he met a Greek
ship of war, the Captain of which told him that Ibra-
him *as reported to have set fire to Tripolizza, and to
have retreated with his troops to Modon. Other Cap-
tains, who have arrived to day from Calamata and
Zante, give the same account, with various additions.
Ibrahim is said to have been induced to retreat, partly
by the great losses which he suffered in his fruitless
attacks of the Mainotes, partly by the harassing attacks
of the Greeks under Nicetos, Colocotroni, &c. who hover
about; and lastly, by want of provisions. These Cap•
tams also repeat the news which has so often been given,
but is yet unconfirmed, of the raising of the siege of
Athens; and of a revolt said to have broken out in
Upper Egypt. It is hardly necessary to add, that all
these statements are much in need of confirmation.

American Papers have been received at the North
and South American Coffee-house, but their contents
are of little interest. One of them, dated the 25th of
September, says, aWe have perused several letters
from Norfolk, dated on Thursday last, the 21st instant,
all of which concur in the belief that the yellow fever
now exists in that Borough to a considerable extent ;
and all express their opinion that the Board of Health
has not acted in such a manner as to secure the confi-
dence of the citizens."

RUSSIA.

FROM via lITOILit, DATED MONDIY, MARCIE 6.
Sr. Papzasivaoie, Fes. 14.—The following trait
gives a striking proof of the presence of mind with
which the Emperor Nicholas is endowed :
" In the fatal day of the 26th December, a body of
rebel soldiers of the regiment of Grenadiers of the
Guard, was marching towards the Winter Palace, the
residence of the Imperial Family, doubtless with the
intention of executing the wicked designs formed by the
conspirators. On a sudden, the Emperor, accompanied
by a few attendants, met them, and wished them a good
day. The mutineers, after a moment's hesitation, re-
turned his salutation, and cried, The Emperor Con-
stantine for ever!'—' You are, doubtless, rebels, also,'
replied the Emperor, with rare sang froid—' but you
have misted' your way—the rebels are assembling in
Isalc's-square—direct your steps that way.—March I"
These words, spoken with the dignity which charac-
terizes our young Monarch, made such an impression
on these rebels, that merely obeying his orders, they
turned back, and proceeded to Isaac's-square; where,
a few hours afterwards, they shared the well-merited
fate of the other rebels.
. " How many similar scenes, which are not generally
known, may have occurred on that eventful day ? But
if the calmness and. resolution of the Emperor have
been the object of general admiration, the tranquillity
and pious resignation of the Empress Alexandrine,
equally charmed all those who were about her on the
26th December, when the most distinguished ladies of
city were assembled in her apartments. An affecting
circumstance deserves to be particularly mentioned.
" At the moment when her Majesty received from her
august Consort the melancholy message that it was
necessary to fire the cannon against the rebels, the
Princest melting into tears, fell on her knees, and con-
tinued in prayer till she was informed that the revolt
aas happily superessed. .-
"Tbus this criminal insurrection of 26. h December,
instea;d IA attaining its object,;produced 'a directly con-
trary drat, by giving a new impulse to the sentiments
of_ love and attastotelt which the people ante. Lain for
I*i*. pedalte' ties."

BO W-ST REET.

A masculine-looking woman applied for the Magistrate's as-
sistance to release from Willis', madhouse a young man, who was
violently in love with her, and had been.eonfined by hi:friends,
who were averse' to hii becoming her husband. If be was
deranged, it was entirely on her account, and she should no doubt be
able to restore him; and she conceived she bad some right to the
custody of him, because he had promised her marriage.—Mr.
Mum= smiled, and said, a mad husband would be no desirable
1 acquisition, and she had better let him remain at all events he had
no authority in tbe case. ➢ut, said the la.ty, upon a note from you,
I I dare say the Doctor will let him out, and if you make any chirge

Mr. MINSHULL again said he had no authority, and the applicant
retired.---The applicant afterwatds presented herself bef re the
Magistrates at Mary• la-BonneOffice, and met with similar reception.
A lunatic then presented himself to claim protection from
a gang, who had defrauded him of a tenth of a certain property,
and who haunted him constantly, sometimes half frightening hint
to death with noises, and trying to smother him while in bed. Hp
was also sent eff with an assurance that the Magistrate had no powers

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

Jirw BmtaAtss.--Isrsei Helyard, a Jew hawker of silks, and other
tawdry articles that the women are so fond of bargaining for, was
brought up for defrauding a Mrs. Ward, of Barret's•court, Oxford-

street, of A 5 10s. and a chest of drawers, in exchange for six yztds
of silk, worth, perhaps, 3s. 6d. per yard, and two cotton shawls.
Israel had exchanged what she believed to be twelve yards of silk,
which be assured her was worth 12s. per yard, and two shawls, for
the chest of drawers, leaving a balance of 31. 10s. which she paid
him. He reasoned with her in such a fair way, that she did not
think of measuring the silk tin he was gone, and then discov,red
that there were but six yards. She applied at the Me, to know
what she should do, and was told, when she saw him again, to gibe
him into custody. She did so; and yesterday Israel answered the
charge by saying that he gave bet twelve yards; bat on unfoldin
the silk there appeared a fag at both ends, ososequendy none could
have been cut off.
Sir G. FARIUNT recommended a settlement; which Israel ac-
ceded to, by giving her six yards more silk for ilia. which Mn.
Ward walked away with—" of a bad bargain to make the best.'

EXTRACT OF A LETTER, DATED BOGOTA, JUNI 18.

We are all here in a state of great excitement and
anxiety. Last night was the most artful one I ever
passed. We were sitting at whist as the clocks chimed
a quarter to eleven ; at that moment we were all st•usi.
ble of the shock of an earthquake, not however violent
enough to make any extraordinary impression, and we
pursued our game. About two minutes elapsed, when
we experienced a most awful repetition. The walls
of the house were dreadfully agitated, our candles
were overturned, chairs and tables thrown from one
side of the room to the other—we could scarcely
maintain our erect position, and were so perfectly pa-
ralysed that me never thought cf getting out of the
11,use; indeed, my own belief was, that the house must
fall before we could possibly get out of it, and that it
was therefore useless to move. The ceiling was coming
down upon us in large flakes, and the fall of a large
mirror at the moment, which we took to be part of the
house, added to the alarm. It was, indeed, appalling;
never, never, shall I forget it. It passed, having lasted
40 seconds. We then went into the street, where
ci owds were on their knees, praying most fervently. A
general rush was made for the square in which the Pa-
lace is. There weiound thousands collecting and col-
lected—women and men just as they bad jumped out
of bed, with the addition of a blanket thrown around
them—mothers in the agony of grief and apprehension,
clasping their children to their bosoms—lathers and
brothers endeavouring to provide them with covering—
groupes of females in every direction calling each other's 1,
names to be assured that all was safe. Dismay and
despair were general. No one would return home, and
thousands passed the whole night in the square.
!tree o'Clock, pav —I have just returned from
making a round of the town, to observe the t xtent of
damage; several houses are thrown entirely down;
many are rent asunder from top to bottom. The
Ca-
thedral, a splendid edifice, has one of its wings rent
from the base to the tower. Scarcely a house in the
city is without injury mine has every one of its prin-
cipal walls split in several places; dining-room in
rums; the par trios) of my bed•room has fallen in; and
had I been in bed, I should have been at least severely
bruited. A severe shock has not been felt here until
now, since the year 1805. About six years ago, it is
said, there was a slight one, but no injury aas done.—
It appears miraculous that only three lives have been
lost. Many who are here, and were at Caraccas during
the great earthquake there, say that this shock was
much more severe ; but the houses being better built
here, the injury has been less.
- Waif past Pm easek.—l have been taking another survey, and
was surprised to find that hundreds of families are sending bads
and bedding into the plain, and erecting booth, there for the night.
AU fear another shock.

19th, Twelve o'Clock. Koo&—This night has pancd quietly, and
the alarm is subsading.

HATTON GARDEN.

Joh* Smith was committed, charged with entering a room in Rose-
alley, Brook's Market, early in the morning, and stealing an arm-,
full of wearing apparel, gathered up from a boa and a bed, value
W. lOs. The owner of the property, however, awoke at the critical
moment when the fellow was leaving the room, and pursued him
into the street, though covered only with his shirt, until a lamp-
lighter secured the culprit.

Careline FiMallen underwent another examination, charged with
robbing her master, Mr. Brooks, of Berton Crescent.
From the evidence now produced, it appeared that the prisoner
gave the 501. note she had Rolm from bey master to Mrs. Stanley,
her landlady, to get it changed for her. Mrs. Stanley passed it to
the landlord of the Golden Lion, Spitallields Market; but, a few
days afterwards, Mrs. Stanley applied to hint to have it back again.
and left IW. and a Mr. Isaacs brought the remaining 511. and went
away with the note.—The prisoner was again remanded.

FRENCH PAPERS.

'ROM THE CONSTITUTIONNEL:
Notwithstanding the assertions of the Ministerial
Journals, it is dzfficult to believe that the Foreign
Ministers who are assembled at Johannisberg, went
there merely on a complimentary visit to M. de Metter-
nich. Reflecting persons cannot fail to h..ve remarked
that there is a representative from almost every Euro.
pean Power, with the exception of England. It will
be remembered that the death of Lord Castlereagh was
the signal fur the official renunciation of the principles
o: the Holy Alliance by the Court of Sc. James's, and
caused the almost total extinct ioa of this unpopular con-
federacy ; it has received a still more important check
in the death of its chief, the Emperor Alexander..._
Time, and the events which it was the object of the
Holy Alliance to at rest and retard, have nearly added
the finishing str. ke to its ee,truccion, and that unholy
fraternity, so dear to M. de Metternich, is now, in fact,
completely annihilated.
Has M. Metternich conceived some nevi plan with a
view to resuscitate an alliance, which, after an existence
of :en )ears only, fell into a premature old age? Can
E gland have a similar design, and is this the reason
that she alone, among all the great Powers, has declined
sending an-Ambass3dor to Johannisberg P
Every day produces some event which gives the
m rgistracy a fresh claim to the confidenceof the people.
Tne Royal Court of Amiens last year refused to be
present when the Missionaries preached ; but by a 4.
cep tion worthy of the disciples of Escobar, advantage
is taken of a ceremony at which the Courts have the
right to be present, to set in.r.giles on foot, which the
authors dare not openly sanction: The Magistrates,
however, though they will not unnecessarily bring these
things to the notice of the public, will not suffer them-
wives to be deceived, and they know how to maintain
their dignity and independence. Oa their return into
Court, they entered into an energetic protest against the
miserable subterfuge by which it was sought to cite the
refusal in question as a precedent, and to construe their
conduct into a retractation of the principles promul-
gated a year since

ANECDOTE OF HIS PRESENT MAJESTY.

A short time ago, the widow of the late celebrated
CHARLES Fox, happening to be in the neighbouthood
of Windsor, was anxious to suhey the Royal Residence
there.; and with this View she addressed a note to V'e
Steward, or some other Offioer of the Royal Household,
begging to know if strangers were admitted at that
seas( nto inspect the Cistle. To this note, which bore
the nanie and address of the writer. an answer was in-
stantly returned, intimating that the intended •isit of
Mrs. Fox would be most agreeable at the Castle. The
Lady accordinglcr set oat, and on her arrival was re-
caved with the inmost courtesy by the household
servants, who 'conducted her through the various apart-
ments of the Royal Residence, and omitted nothing
which could gratify the cariosity or excite the interest
of the visitor. Having finished her inspection, Mrs.
Fox was about to take her departure, when she was re-
quested by the attendant to step aside into one of the.
private vooms for a few moments. After waiting a
short time, the KING entered, and walking up to Mrs.
Fox, with an air of the most condescending affability,
took her by the hand, and expressed the high satisfac-
tion he felt in having this opportunity of paying hie
respects to the widow of a late intimate and highly
valued friend. Mrs. Fox was overcome at the Mo-
MARCH'S condescension ; but the frank and easy manner
of his LAttairsrx quickly restored her to her wonted
composure. He inquired minutely into her present
situation and circumstances, and though informed by
Mrs. Fox that she had not been left altogether destitute
by her late husband, his MAJMY kindly pressed upon
her the acceptance of an annuity from his private purse
ofsool.per annum,vihich we believe the Lady now enjoys.,

MA RY- LA.BONN R.

-
Yesterday, Mr. Fronds Cam&ll was brought before the Magi..
Crates, by Miles Jones, a Mary.la-bonne watchman, for whistling in
the New Road, near the house of Dr. Brookes.
The charge entered in the book was, for being drunk and di.:
orderly, but that was not supported by Miles Jones, as will appear.
Miles Jones being sworn, stated, that he observedi the prisoner
(for so he called Mr. CundeU) coming up the New Road, between
the Stings and Mary-la-bonne Church, and he was whistling. So
Miles Junes went up to him and said," I have orders from the Bost d
to take anybody to the watchhouse what makes a noise." Mr,
Cundell said, he was making no noise, but Miles Jones declared he
did make a noise, for he was whistling, and said to him, .‘ If you
did not whistle, I did." After this, Mr. Cundell marched backwardsand forwards on Miles Jones's beat, like a soldier on parade, Which
aggravated 31iles Jones, and he took him to the watchhouse.
Whitt, for whistling in the road?" said Mr. Gasmen.
No, for being drunk and disorderly," said Mile.: Jones,
" Drunk," said Mr. Calmest, " you have not said a word about
that before; was he drunk r

4* Oh, yes, your Worship," replied Miles Jones, *he was id a
misehierul line ofdrunkenneu."

Another watchman, who had obeyed the summons of Miles
Jones's rattle, swore that the prisoner was drunk, and foamed at
the mouth.

In answer to the accusation, Mr. Cundell brought forward a
stranger, who accidentally witnessed the occurrence, and be swore
that the charge was groundless, and that be considered the conduct
of the watchman very improper. A friend of Mr. Cundell's also
swore that he was perfectly sober. Four friends had supped toge-
ther: they had taken neither wine nor spirits, but bad prtaken of
two pots of porter, and when Mr. Cundell left the party, it was for
the purpose of conducting a young I ady to her home. Theca's:yr
of the night also swore that when Mr. Conde!l was brought to the
watchhouse he was perfectly sober. 'rite tables being thus turned
upon Miles Jones, he said he had received special orders from the
Court not to let people whistle, nor do anything else, before
Brookes's house in the New-road.

" Dr. Brookes!" said Mr. Gamma; " don't tell me of Dr.
Brookes, nor Doctor anybody else. I can tell you if you bring such
another charge bele, I will discharge you."
Mr. Cundell was then set at Shen,.
A young urchin, but an old offender, known 'by the name of
China Bub, was placed bar, at the charged with stealing a watch
from a lad, on the banks of the canal, in the Regents Park. China
Bob took the lad's cap by way of a lark, and offered to return it if
he would tell him what it was o'clock. NVhen the lad took the
watch from his fob, the young thief gave him his cap, snatched his
watch front his hand, and ran away with it in real earnest. Although
well known, he eluded the vigilance of the officers for more than a
month, and was apprehended on Saturday. In his defence,be said
the charge was all false; but Mr. GRIFFITH (unfortunately tor him)
believed it, and he was sent to Newgate.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

GUILDHALL

For several days past the sitting Aldermen have bad to attend to
the complaints of Mr. Carpenter, a pastry cook, in Fleet-street, /cc.
of Mrs. Carpenter, of Miss Carpenter, Mr. Pitt, or some of their
friends, for assaults, abuse, family jars, or differences, all wising
from Mr. and Mr.. Carpenter's matrimonial differences.—Yester-
day morning, Mr. Beresiord, who is a near neighbour of Mr. Car-
penter, made application for a warrant against the latter, for having
on Sunday, as he termed it, in a pugilistic phrase, '• pitched into his
wife." From Mr. Beresford's account, it appeared, that Mrs.
Beresford and Mr. Carpenter had had some words respecting the
family quarrel, and that Mr. Carpenter struck Mrs. Beresford for
taking the part of his wife, though it appeared Mr. ileresford had
taken his own revenge, by " veil yapping" Mr. Carpenter.
Sir P. LACRIF granted the complainant a summons. One of the
Common Council of the Ward was present, and intimated that if
the nuisance continued, the officers of the parish would feel it their
duty to prosecute all the belligerents.

LAW REPORT.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Guttouatt., Ocv. O.
PLUNKIM V. BUCHANAN AND ANOTHIER.
The LORD Curer Joanna, on taking his seat, ob-
served that from the pleadings he perceived that this
was an action against the husband of a Lady to recover
from him a considerable sum of money expended for
her maintenance, and he (the Lord Chief Justice) wished
to suggest whether it would not be better settled out of
Court, without being made thesubject of public dis-
cussion.
Mr. Bsouosaw, who appeared far the plaintiff, said he was per-
fectly willing to submit to a reference.
11r. SCA HIATT, for the defendant, stated that he
could not accede to a reference, being perfectly satisfied
that the plaintiff never could succeed in obtaining that
which she :mein to recover.
The LORD Com JUSTICI was ready to try the cause,
if they could not agree ; it was only for the interest of
the parties that he threw out the suggestion.
Mr. SCABLETT would say this much, that his client
was exceedingly unwilling that this case should be pub-.
licly gone into, but he would submit to that sooner than
comply with the present demands. His client was
wailing to make a handsome allowance to a woman,
sot half his age. for her life, and who, if he was to die
just now, would never get a farthing.
Mr. BROUGHAM did not understand this offer as a
tender of compensation to the plaintiff, but he was wil-
ling to attend to his Lordship's suggestion if his Learned
Friend was so disposed.
After some further consultation, it was agreed to refer the matter
In differenice to Mr. Taunton.
One other cause was disposed of by reference, and no other of any
public interest occurred.

THE KING:

11
A Correspondent of The Scotsman, who was near the
KING on his visit to Drury-lane the week before lass,
says—" Considerable anxiety had been excited with
respect to tie state of his (the Kitgo'a) health, in con.'
sequence of the representations made of his apprirrat
debility, rind the evident niaoks of indisposition betrayed
by him in the Honse of Lords, on periing the New
Parliament. A more complete refutation could rot
have been gisrmi, than by his apraranceorf Et iday, and
the evening befOre. lie seemed net only to be in pet,
fect health, but in excellent spirits, anti durii,g the I.ti.
lot mance of Rule Britannia, in particular, joinedt zs
is his usual custom, in the chorus, with a ti•naness
te
tone very little chdractetistic of the lungs of an inv,d,o:
It is impossible to conceive a more favoJrab;e reception
than he received, and it evidently produced a strung
impression upon his feelings. It is now generally silo.
that it was not only at the advice, but at the persol;.,l
re.it,est, and that, too, a strongly urged one, of the
Duke of Yorix, that his MaJaart took this oppattin;-,
of appearing in public. His Royal Highness, in cal,
mon with many others, knows well that the ptyalin',
of his Royal Brother was never higher than at this
moment among all classes of his subjectsiand is naturally
anxious that he should enjoy its effects. It is, morrove,,
unquestionably a matter of state policy that he shook
occasionally thus descend, as it were, from his e:.
alted itation, to mix in a degree with the amusements
of his people, and identify himself thus, as it vs e e,
with their feelings, were it only'to prevent, by oci.
lar demonstration, the bad effects of reports cir:us
listed either by ignorance or malevolence. S:e ng
believing,' says a homely, but true adage; and J,,:to
Bull, in particular, is very fond of submitting every
thing that concerns him to the test of his own eyes._.
Many reasons may be conceived why his MAJESTY
should be averse to these public exhibitions at his time
of life. With much that mnst be personallygraiiiying
to him must also be mixed that which is repugnant to
his feelings and to his habits : it is, however, one at the
many taxes which Royalty must pay, and the dignity
of his station must naturally involve a considerable
sacrifice of personal convenience. I understand that
the chief objection of his MAJESTY to going in public
in this way is the state of his legs, which are too weak
to bear much standing upon."
WINDSOR, DECEMBER 10.

His MAJESTY this morning attended Divine Service at the new
Private Chapel. He was accompanied by his Suite, and the greater
portion of the Royal Household attended. The Rev. Dr. Pr.aa-
SON officiated.

his Maiassvfrom enjoying his usual airings since Thursdry last.

'to Dasthaviat. The enemy fled in such conrusiob, that
they left behind untouched the• magazines of provisions
found in the villageiof lAcki and Nuwaga. Accounts
[ from Persia say, that the Scheh on his interview with
Abbas Miiza at Agar, bitterly reproached him, and
threatened to declare him deprived of his right of silo-
cession to the throne, and to have his eyes put out ; hut that
yielding to the intreaties and assurances of his son, lie had
consented to give him fresh troops. Having received these
reinforcements, Abbas Mirza has pitched his camp near
a place called Maksizlou (Makrisla), a few wersts from
the Bridge of Khudaperim, and spread a report that
he was going to repass the Al axes. Should he do this,
be will meet with the corps of General Paskewitsch,
which is between the Arazes and the Akh-Uglan, on the
little river Tscheraken.

The St. Petersburgh Gazette says, that Count Nesiel-
rode, on his return to the capital, has, by his Majesty's
command, resumed the direction of ail the branches of
his department.

We have also received Dutch Papers to the 9th,
from which we quote as follows :

HAARLEM, Dicinunta 6.

Accounts from Zivolle, of the 4th inst. state, that the
sickness had abated in the province of Overyssel in
the course of last week, and the number of deaths
had decreased.

Bth.—The report of the Board of Health, appointed
by the Minister of the Interior to investigate the origin
and nature of the disease, declares the opinion of the
Committee to be, that the disorder is not contagious,
that it is not communicated from the sick to the healthy,
but that it arose from general causes, among the prin-
cipal of which they reckon the inundations, followed
by the great heat ; the exhalations arising from the
►tagnant waters, the burying of the dead in the churches
and towns, poverty, kc.

Accounts from Madrid state, that a great number of
arrests had taken place in that capital, and that the
Clergy are becoming military men, they enlist recruits,
and are purchasing gunpowder.
Dispatches have been received at the Foreign Office,
and the Admiralty, from Lisbon, from Sir WILLIAM A'Covar and
Vice-Admiral Lord Auaraus BiALIGLISE, brought by his Majesty's
brig Lyra, which sailed from the Tagus at day-light on the 27th
ult. Their contents have not transpired, but their arrival has been
followed by various reports. Among others, it is said, that the
Marquis Ds Cwaves had invaded Portugal with 3,000 rebels, who
had advanced twenty miles into the country, and expected to be
joined by other deserters. Another report says, that a disposition
to favour Don Mauer., begina to exhibit itself in Lisbon, and a
third asserts, that our Government has taken up tr..nsports to
convey troops to Portugal. These should, however, be received
as unauthenticated rumours.

THE ITALIAN OPERA.

La Vestals was repeated on Saturday night, and with a marked
improvement in its effect. Comm was in better voice, and Ma-
dame BIAGIOLI being recovered from her illness, displayed talents
which must prove extremely useful to the establishment. Madame
CARABORI again sang and acted very charmingly.
In the-procession the horses did not appear, and their parts were
quite as well acted by certain biped performers. The Opera un-
doubtedly produced a better effect than upon its first presentation.
and will, we have no doubt, improve as long as it is played. The
House was full.
