STOCK ENCILINUK, P2I,I:I*EN O'CLOCK.

This being- Settling day, most of the brokers are oc-
cnpied in making op their Acronnts. A banker, sre
understand, transfered yesterday, into the name of his
brother, 7mm:cm Consols to be delivered this day.—
Consols opened this morning 75:i. W i►see not
heard as yet of any failures having. taken place.—
Money is ►•ery scarce, and tt per Cent. has been given
fur it at the Steek-Esehance.

The letter from Mr. Sheriff Warrnstax to Lord
Itavitut:sv, which will be found in another part of
onr paper, on the conduct of the s-,ltlirry at Knights-
bridge barrack•, on Sumiay last, v.ill he read with
the highest interest. It is au unadorned but striking
narrative of facts of which be himself had been a
witness, and of outrages to *Melt he hail been per-
sonally exposed and nearly been a victim, white man-
fully, nobly and constitutionally tEseliarging the most
important offices of thief Ilagistrate of the County.
For the answer this letter will obtain front the Se-
cretary of State the public are anxiously l.tokinl,• :
for the redress the eompl tints require, the politic shout I
not lose a moment in making the roost itr,.!ent

The grievances affect nut the security of individuals
only, not merely the lives of private and peace-
able subjects, but the existence of the Consti-
tution itself and the laws that have been handed
down from the remotest ages for the ; rotretion
of whatever is dear to Englishmen. Sheriff iVaursts
MAX dese:ibes the treatment I.e experienced 'l' as a
violent outrage on the public peace, and an attempt at
assassination upon himself per.onally, while in the
exercise of his duty as Sheriff of Middlesex, at the
head of the civil power of the country." Is this to be
submitted to without a nun' war? Is no reparation
to be made fur the teener ? Are the military wills
impunity to offer violence to the Chief Magistrate, and
set the laws of their country at defiance ? We are
well aware that there may be some among ns who
would wish to sec the spirit of the people broken down ;
but such a state of abjectness as connivance at this
outrage would imply, can never be countenanced by
an English 3linistry who have the least regard for
the rights for which their ancestco, struggled, or
who have any adequate knowledge of the spirit
whirb Englishmen retain. To talk of the snob and
the rabble, as if what they call the mob and the
rabble never read and thought : to deem them mere
animal usavlsines, instead of thinking beings; and en-
deavour to drive them with whips and scourges, when
they can be impelled, without refractoriness, by wisdom
and reason alone, is not the mode in which English-
men ran now submit to be governed. To treat them
as the slaves of the prostrate Continent, or as an
ig-
norant multitude of a former age, is inconsistent with
the knowledge and spirit tibia the present age has
gained. We perceive and see with pain and indigna-
tion, the artieers employed by the advocates of Minis-
ters to keep them in ignorance of the character of the pen-
. ple, and of the itansactions in which they are cone,rrned.
We are especially indignant at the misrepresentations

tnaile in the ministerial prints of the proceedings 11141

occurred at the scene now under review. In utter
contempt of the understandings of the public, they
have the audacity to describe the diszraceful affray as
" the outrage of a mob upon the unarmed and peace-
able soldiery ;" but such artifices can delude only the
employers of the rr►iters; on the people they are inef-
fectual, except so provoke resentment or disdain.

We have had no fresh arrivals from Dublin to-day,
no papers having been due. The next week, it ap-
pears, will he the last of his Majesty's visit to Ireland,
and then the good people of Dublin pill begin to re-
cover their senses, or rather let their senses take their
former turn. It is with much difficulty. as mast be
observed on reading the accounts of the lined Civic
Dinner, that our warm-hearted brethren of the sister
kingdom can keep the lateral or habitual impulses of
their minds under any artificial restraint. The parties
accustomed to oppose each other With virulent. bad

USTI'S Visit, to suite, with all their hearts and
throats, in the lousiest strains of loyalty, and to fore-
swear all animosity against each other, at least,
during Ills Slints rv's stay with them ; in the same
manner as their fellow-countrymen of the lower order
sometimes, from a consciousness of the injury it
would do them, taia an oath against whiskey for a
month. But a month, a little month, is a long time
for an Irish constitution to exercise self-denial ; and
weighty as is the influence that restrains for a while
the impulses of contending parties, the elasticity of
their spirits will stew itself ready to burst forth. The
artificial order in which they have been arranged pro-1
wises soon to give way to accustomed eccentricities :
and we should not he surprised that the adulation
which the contending parties have been vieinz with
each other to lavish on th:• King, may, as soon as his
back is turns d upon tbenwrelees, serve for an occasion of
amuse and reproach of each other, " honey,

The intf lligence subjoined respecting Constantino-
ple is the last we hare reasou to expect till we receive
that which is decisive of the points at issue. The accounts
which have come to hand from that city come down to
the Stith ult., within one day of the exiiration of the
term within which the Porte was called upon to Morn
his answer to the proposition made by the Em-
peror of Russia. The articles which hare been recently
given as the substance of that proposition should be re-
ceived with doubt. They appear to be framed from an
observation of the •,-olicy pursned by Russia rather
than actual knowledge of the state of affairs. The
passage of the Dardanelles had bern perilously par-
tially obtained by her after much bloodshed an,l nego-
tiation, and would soggest the idea of a complete
free navigation through ;he Straits as one of the
demands on the present occasion. Another is the
cession of Moldavia and Wallachia to Russia.—
Russia is supposed to have long had her eve upon the
acquisition of the former province—as Austria had
bar's uponWallaeltia ; and this partition of the Turkish
provinces was meatioaed son' sime since in the fo-
reign papers as the basis of co-operation between
those two powers. The indemnification of the Greeks,
the re-building of their churches, the re-establishment
of their religious worship, and a guarantee for their
future security, were among the articles formerly
stated, and are anion?, those which the Turkish Go-
vernment, were it so disrosed, would find it very dif-
ficult to comply. The great obstacle would be the
animosity and fanaticism of such a populace as the
'Turks, civil and military. The f 'reign accounts say
the Porte will reject the-e c• nations; and that the
Emperor will, in person; head the army, hoist the
sacred standard, is produced only in extreme
emergencies, and invoke time Genius of 3lahomedanism.
A letter front Constaatinople.Oatell 2.lth July, 1`42'1,

-ars We are extremely sorry to say, that elver be-
tween this country and Itu.sia appears inevitable. A
few days ago, the Itusiian Actiba!saclor gave in a note
of the demand• of his Government, ►which if the Porte
Flo not aeceed to, a war will follow. Ile allowed eight
days to consider it; they expired on the 26th. It is
genet ally considered that the demands are such a* the
Porte canuot arse to. Should a war take place we
have determined to quit this capital. This city has
enjoyed perfect tranquillity since the 3cl of this
and every thing has been going nu in a regular way "
Extract of another Letter received from Constanti-
nople by the bait arrivals :
CONST.I7IIINOPLE, Jrt.v 23.—New rumours are
again current which give rise to apprehensions of a
war with Russia. The demand of the latter are of
such a nature that hostilities we think almost
inevitable. An assembly of all the Turkish
Ministers took place yesterday, and the two pre•
ceding days. A private conference between
them and all the Foreign Mittinisters com•
sciences to-day on this .uhjert. Lord Strangford
possesses considerably more influence than the rest;
and it appears that ►he Porte has taken the greatest
pains to ascertain the sentiment, of Great Britain, and
the other Powers, towards her ; and whether, it: the
event of war wit!► Russia, they will support the
Turks. A period of eight days (which expires to-
morrow) is fixed by Russia fir a tieeisiy; reply to
her demands: and, it is said, if negatived, nothing
ran prevent a war. I have hall the opinion of several
diplomatic characters, who think Turkey will accede
to them. On tlse other hand, persons I:ol(ling.olficiAl
situations hare declared, that a war is inevitable.
Most of the Turks also think o ; but it surely cannot
be the policy, or favourable fur the Turks, to come to
such a decision. They will find it very difficult to
suppress the Greeks, but time alone can clear up this
point.
We still continue to enjoy tranquillity here. The
estecuaisen of Greeks has heed less frequent lately.—
Twenty-tlsree of them were bronght from the northern
provinces, tell were beheaded, and the rest seat te,
the g►allies.
The British Consul, Mr. James, has been very
roughly handled by the Greeks at Tagandortf, who
left him for dead. Ile has received many severe
bruises, but is now recovering.
We look forward to to-morrow with great anxiety,
when it will be decided whether a a•ar is, or is not, to
take place. No preparations hare been made by any
of the merchants here, and I think this is a good sign,
as they must consider the result will be favourable.
I do not suppose the English will be compelled t►► quit
this country. Lord Strangfartrs influence with the
Porte will procure them protection, but 1 fancy we
shall be locked up in our houses for sense days, and
perhaps months.
I have letters of the 19th instant front Smyrna,
which say, that the Turkish fleet, consisting of 60
sail, have taken Samoa, and that many troops have
left Smyrna far that island.
A letter from Dresden dated the 13th of August,
states, that a report is general in that capital, that the
Russian Cabinet had declared war with the Ottotuau
Porte, and theta Manifesto of the Emperor Alexander,
addressed to all the Governments of Europe, will he
immediately published. The Russian army, 200,000
strong, which is on its march to the Ottoman territory,
it is added, has receivedinto its ranks several Urea
corps, and has directed its march upon Constantlnopk
ii two different points at once. It has been also

aid that Servia and 831114 were in a state of inter-
rection.
In opposition to all accounts of this completion
which appears to he the prevailing colour of the
rate letters which had been received, intelligence is
stated to have arrived yesterday by an express from
Vienna, that Baron Strogonoff hail, before the de.
partnre of the courier, actually reached Odessa ; add,
ing, that his journey thither was in obedience to en
dens from his Court, which bad recalled him. As
much of time question of peace or warmost
depend upon the spirit by which that removal of
Russian Ambassador was dictated, it would be'
erect to Plemlge ourselves on that part of the
but it is our duty to say that we have weived a suns=

as to the real demands of Russia, is it not a oat,
ter of perfect certainty to what extent the se.
several versions of her tiltinette:tta are authentic;
whether tit* stltiosaPria itself may deserve that
strictly as to have been delivered with an tinderstand-
ing that it would admit no shadow of qualification.._
It is now confidently stated th.lt Austria has under-
taken the office of ntaliaton and is to determine how
far Russia and Turkey may end), with honour, is.
duke their separate pretensions. As for the etwolak
tion of Austria, it snot be confessed that if Lord
Strang ford acts in quality of adviser to the Sublime
I Porte, his Government could not with any &insigne,
i solicit or accept the mediatorial ditty. Of the pat*
dispositions of the Porte, if guided by the Wools
Nlinistet, there can be less danbt than of the rapatati
cf the Turkish ti,mvernment to communicate its lita
prudence or moderation to the soldiers, who are kneel
be infected with a rage for war, and who hate efts*,
in the history of their nultappy country, compelled
the Government to rush headlong into a cadict, which
it could neither maintain with successi moor terminate
without a taeritice both of dignity and power.
la corroboration of the above we have to state that
the letters received this morning front St. Peterstnergio
are very pacific.

A Paris paper has a report that the King of Great
Britain will visit Paris in the course of next mold,
and that his 3lajesty intends to travel unlit/ the title
of the Count de lunebourg.
The King proposed to honour the University el
Dublin on Tuesday. with his presence at dinner. The
Installation, add his visit to the Omagh, are the two
principal remaining parts of the arrangements that
will occupy his Alkiesty's attention during his stilts
Ireland, from whence it is expected that he will take
his departure between the Ist and 6th of next aloath.
