PARIS, Jinx so.

Letters from BetEa, of the 19th, say that it is at the desire, and
at the instance of the Cabinet of 3taiut Petersburg's, that that of
Berlin has mot General Misfiling to Constantinle on a special
mission ; and many persons suspected a. mach. The Emperor de-
sires to prove, at the moment when the chance, of war are the most
favourable to him, that he is free from all views of ambition and

conquest, which ate assented to him, in the midst of a nation,
which, for its part, hat not always piqued itself, in the East, on
moderation and' disinterestedness, though its dearest interests are
not threatened, and it has not been, like Russia, offended in its
dignity. The proposals which are to be made to the Ottoman
I Porte are, as they were from the beginning—the inviolability of
the Treaty of Akerman, and the free navigation of the Rack Sea
without insisting on the demolition of the Castles of the Duda'.
wiles. Nevertheless, the Emperor seems flrudy resolved not to
restore the fortresses conquered by his arms in AAA, which saved
as a defence and refuge for robbers of every description, and
especially for the sale of Russian Subjects into slavery.
With respect to Greece, the magnanimous policy of the /Co-
pes will not vary ; be will insist upon its obtaining that extent of
territory without which it would have 00 independence; that is to
say, a frontier line from Veto to Arta ; so that it may include not
only Athens, but a good pan of Sicily.

MEDICO BOTANICAL SOCIETY.

. -
Last night a meeting of this S iciety was held in
Sac kvillritreet, for the election of new members. &c.;
the Bishop of BATH and Witu.s in the Chair. in the
absence of the Noble Chairman from indisposition.
The Vice•Cbancellors, Drs. Adolphus, Biggs, and
Lemony', were unanimously elected members; but
'violent symptoms of discontent manifested themselves
on the proposition of one whose name it may be as well
' not to mention, and were only silenced by the direct its.
imposition of the meeting in a general call to the Chair.
Mr. FROST said a few mord% condemning the recent
practice of resorting to discussion, n inch was contrary
to the statutes, and reduced this Society to the level of
a were debating society. •
Order having been restored, the reading of a paper
on the virtues of a plant in certain diseases of worm• n
was proceeded with ; and followed by a description and
surprising efficacy of the prunses cucvmelitz in malaria,
communicated from Italy. But the most interesting
business of the evening was the itfoimation that an
eminent' Arabian traveller had sent a valuable paper
to the Society, giving it the preference over any other
learned body in Europe, on the discovery of the real
plant from which was obtained the myrrh of Scripture;
but as the arrangement was not yet complete. nor the
specimens arrived, the Society must rest satasfi d with
the high honour reserved to them until the details were
furnished, which there was no doubt would prove of
the most satisfactory description.
The Reverend Prelate left the Chair about half-past
nine. and the.bleeting adjourned to the 20th instant.

so as to remove all possible obstacles on which their

TH KING V. TEIg COUPOSATION Of IXILTIN.

Sir JAMES Scnitterr had obtained a rule calling on
the Corporation to show cause shy a mandamus should
not issue, commanding them to open a c .nal which runs
from the river Eze to Elver. The motion WAS mule
on the ground that the public right of navigation in
that river had been obstructed.

The &MOVIE GENERAL and Mr. COLERIDGE this
day opposed the ruse, and contended that the Co: pnra
tion were entitled to take tolls upon the canal, and that
it was an improvement of the navigation.
The Cover held that the Corporation had proved
their right to the canal. and that they could not grata
a writ of mandamws.—The rule was discharged.

man in the street, and proposed to hire him to drive his
malt cart and three horses. The young man looked at him
for a moment, and then said he would accept his offer.—
The primmer told him to accompany him home at once,
but on his way he recollected that he wanted some
change, and asked the young man to lend him half-
a-crown. The young man replied` by seizing him
by the collar, and desiring that he would forth-
with return him his 100.; for it was his former dupe,
Jones, to whom he had unwittingly addressed his favou-
rite proposal. At first the prisoner denied that he was
the person, but finding Jones positive and resolute, he
pulled out a half-sovereign and gave it to him in pay-
ment. Jones, looking at the half-sovereign, said it was
bad, and returned it to him. The prisoner then offered
Jones his coat, which the latter declined to take. The
prisoner again gave him the half-sovereign, and Jones
showed it to two or three persons who were standing by.
Whilst they were examining it the prisoner attempted to
snatch it, but Jones prevented him, and calling a con-
stable, gave both prisoner and half-sovereign into his
custody. This, as well as the other half-sovereign,
turned out to be counterfeit, both being from the same
die. _ _

The prisoner was found Guilty, and sentence of Death
_ .

recorded against him.
Lord TENTERDEN informed him he would recommend
his life to be spared, but he must never expect an oppor-
tunity of passing bad money in this country again.
The Assizes terminated at a late hour this evening.

OUR NAVY.

It appears that our Navy in the Levant has at last put
itself into motion, in order to be in at the death bt the Turk.—
Having been happy to "so it, oak Ned," at the expense of the
Batson, it would be but condemn with modern political locos''s-
testy to 6nd it gaisaz it again at the expense of the Csoo. This
is being (in favourite language) every body's customer ; for hav-
ing taken the Turk by the beard, is it not fair it should
now catch the Tartar ? Only, in this expedition to the
Famine, let it bear in mind who are coasting it on both sides
—rapidly approaching to a happy meeting on the &nits of Con-
stantinople. Jos Mitten recounts of a Gascoon (doubtless serving
Russia in her Cossack wars), that patroling a wood beyond his
lines, be vociferated to his Aces from a distance—" Captain, I
have caught a Tartar." " Bring him along, then," quoth his chief.
" But he will not come," rejoined the Gammon. " Then come
yourself." replied. the Captain—" Ay! but he will not let me."
roared the captor :—the moral of which choice story is, that
heroes must not seek glory in a trap.

SANDYS V. SANDYS.

The SOLICITOR-GENERAL, a few days since, obtained
an order directing the Governor and Company of the
Bank of England to transfer the sum of 4001. Four per
Cent. Stock into the name of the petitioner, Mr. Sandy...
The short facts of the case are as follow : Mr.. Sandy.
married a lady of the name of Long, who, at the time of
her itarriage, had 4001. stock, which had been be-'
quedthed to her by her father, and after her death to hor
children. Mr. Sandy. obtained the consent of his wire,
that this fund should be transferred into his name ; and,
upon application to this Court, they granted an order to
flint effect. When this order was served in the usual
way; the Bank refused to comply with the order, and de-
nied the jurisdiction of the Court to make such an order.
The Solicitor-General, on a subsequent day, gave notice
of a modal to commit the Governor and Company of the
Bank of England to the Fleet Prison for contempt.'
Mr. Hot then said be was instructed to appear 'for
tl:e Bank, and state the grounds of their refusing to
comply with the order of the Court. It was not con-
tempt for its authority, but in this case it was clear his
Honour had no jurisdiction. The stock was standing in
the name of the Lady a*d her children. The children
were infants, and therefore could not , consent to the
winder; and the Court were bound to protect their in•
tellies; In fret; it was clearly en order wade contrary to

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

The accounts from Manchester yesterday morning,
relative to the failure of one of the oldest and most respectable
manufacturing houses Is Lancashire, have created a good deal of
gloom in the City. It is feared that the thing will not stop here,
and we apprehend that there is too much reason for such fear.
The rain yesterday morning produced no effect upon
the Corn Market. Scarcely any thing was done • but, if offers
bad been made for line Wheats at a lower rate,, there is no doubt
they would have been accepted.
The harvest in our neighbourhood has, for some days
past, boob going on well, and much wheat, of excellent quality,
has been carried. But yesterday It met with a serious intetrupttou,

The crops between Stafford and Shrewsbury, and
throughout Shropshire, are most abundant. A considerable quan-
tity of wheat is already cut, and fine weather for another week
will be sufkleast to secure it. The barley in this part looks better
than In Oxfoedshire and Worcester hire, but is not so forward.—
The crops of turnips are everywhere remarkably fine, and after-
math never more luxuriant.

The accounts from the North Highlands, we rejoice to
state, describe Ross-shire, Sutherland, and Caithness, as having
escaped the violence of the recent storm. It is consolatory, too,
to Imo, that the west coast was entirely exempted front this di'-
estrous visitation.

THE SPITALFIELDS SILK WEAVERS.

The following is a copy of the letter written by the Duke of
%Youngman, in reply to the Petitiuo of the Journeymen Silk
Weavers : " London, Feb. 18, 1829.
" &a—l have received the Petition of the Journeymen Stik
%even. My attention has long been given to a consideration of
their case, with others of his Maimed servants.
" It appears that their distress is to be attributed to smuggling,
rather than to the state of the law affecting the manufacture in
which they,are voyaged.
" It is quite obvions, then, that the remedy cannot be found in
the prohibition of the importation of silk manufactures from
foreign countries.
• " I think it proper to say so much in answer to this Petition,
assuring lb... Petitioners that I will 'continue to attend to their case.
in hopes of discovering some mode by which permanent rebel can
be afforded to them.

" In the meantime. I have received his Majesty's commands to
subscribe, in his Majesty's name, for their temporary relief trona
the distresses under whkb they are labouring.
" I have the homier to be. Sir.

DRURY-LA NE.

Saturday evening a new Mmical Drams, entitled
Pete► the (:rent ; or the Battle of Follow was pro.
du.ed at this Theatre. It is composed of a quantity
of incidents, some historical and some invented—re.
lating.to that battle which ridded Peter of his most
dangerous enemy.
The actors exerted themselves with great ability.
Mr. Toys° added a song to his usual claims to appro.
bation, and acquitted himself with the greatest felicity.
The air was old, but extremely pleasing, and the *cods
were suitable. Mr. Yews* sang with an accuracy. es•
preuion, spirit. and effect. which would have dose weal
credit to most of our professed vocalists. Mr. Lima
too played in a very happy and humourous sprit; aad
Mr. FAlllttl was an able representative or the bluff
Salads. Mr. COOPER, as Charles AIL did the little he
bad to do efficiently. and the subordinate stale charm.
ters were respectably sustained. Mi►s E. Taxa played
radios with grace and feeling ; and Mi,s Love and
Mrs. C. Joan were fully equal to Lilo and Bliska. On
the whole Peter the Great contains much to excite both
interest and laughter, and if judiciously but consider-
ably pruned, may have a run.
The new play of Peter the Great was repeated last
night, and the only objectionable passages being omit-
ted, established its claims to the success it has ob.
tained, and was received throughout with the warmest
applause.

Yesterday evening a Meeting of the inhabitants of
this town was held in the large Catch Club Room of
the Guildhall Tavern, to agree to Petitions to both
Houses of Parliament against granting the contemplated
concessions to the Catholics. Although the intended
Meeting was only announced by bills published in the
