The seizure of Mr. Bowring at Calais, and his imprisonment at Boulogne are the only topics of interest at present on the political lapis. Some of the newspapers rail loudly on the subject, because the usage adopted towards Mr. Bowring is not ac cordant to English custom—just as well might the British Government be charged with murder, when it sentences a Lascar to be hanged under Lord Ellenborough's Act—because in his own country stabbing and cutting are as common as pugilistic rencuutres are here—the fact is, that when any man enters a foreign country he must become amenable to its laws—if those laws are strained or misapplied vabassador at Paris will doubtles appeal effec against such injustice—but while we know foreigner here is punished for a bread' of our severely as though he were an Englishman, ly cannot join in the violent condemnation of rencli Government, until we have reason to :hat there exists some ground of complaint on of illegal violence or uncalled for severity. order for Sir Robert Wilson's quitting Paris is ground of complaint against the French Intent—we would ask whether the English aers, armed as they are with that disgrace to Legislature, the Alien Act, would allow any remain in London after be had on , :e placed successfully between a person condemned execution of his sentence—we say no, t why should we blame the police of Paris, \ving given Sir Robert Wilson his Cone de nits have been received from Greece of the.: istlictory nature. On the 24th September tic of Corinth surrendered to the Christians, ihis achievement the Morea has been again . from the Barbarians. This event will be isidered important in history, because it has been by the most brilliant successes on the part ;reeks. The Turkish garrison of Corinth, 16th of Seumber, made a great effort to, ie siege, but they were opposed by the most lin ed galluntry,and driven into the town with great loss. One thousand of them remained in •hl, and three thousand woundal returned, and the difficulties of the garrison.

The situation of the barbarians was highly critical, fur they were hourly exposed to an attack, and their destruction Was extremely proba ble, for the Greeks, recollecting the bloody scenes at Scio and Cyprus, were filled with the most deter wined purpose of revenge,particularly the islanders. SAN SEBASTIAN, Ocr 14.—The evening before last a disturbance took place, caused by an artillery man and a corporal. A patrol of volunteers, going the rounds, came about ten o'clock, to La Brecha, where they found an artilleryman, who was not a sentinel, with his musket. He gave the usual litary challenge—" Who goes there? " To which the volunteer answered—" The patrol !" The ar tilleryman replied—" Patrol, or pot patr.:l," levell ed his piece at the volunter, crying—" Mucra la Cons/due/on ! "—but fortunately it missed lire, for, otherwise, us he was so close upon them, it is pro bable that some of them would have been killed.— The 'volunteers, seeing the flash, and hearing the seditious cry fired, and the artilleryman fell wound ed in the left hand, which .vas amputated yester day. This was followed by a commotion tunong.the volunteers. Light persons the most noted for dis affection, some of whom are friars, and one a curate, have been arrested and, sent to the castle. it is proposed to send them to Santeinta or Corunna.— The Ayuntamicnto have admonished several other persons to regulate their conduct in conformity with the constitutional system, and five strangers, three of whom are lawyers, have been ordered to leave the town within 48 hours. An article from Vienna, dated October 13, says —" Mr. Irving, the banker, and Mr. Ward, un Officer under Government, arrived here from Lon don a few days ago. They set out flyr Verona the day after to-morrow, for the purpose, it is said, of obtaining the repayment of the sums lent to Austria in the years 1796 and 1797." The complaints of' the Bri tish.merchant respecting the piracies committed upon our commerce in the West Indies, proceed chiefly from the Underwriters, • who are always the greatest suffirers. and were answered by assurances in. the usual style of official • perspicuity. At lust, about a fortnight since, four vessels of war were dispatched to increase the squad run under Admiral Rowley, and which was in due course, most pompously announced-in the ministerial prints. In the mean time the correspondence has 1 . been goinc , on between the " Constituted A uthori ties." as the French have it ; and this has ended most abruptly, and left both parties in mutual dis gust. The Sgeretary of' the Treasury, it appears, had desired that two of the committee should wait upon him at the Admiralty. This mandate gave' great offence to the City magnates : they demurred. ut *hut they conceived to be derrogutoey fn.m their dignity ; And they, not in Of politeness, " de clined," but in very plain refused to comply, alleging that in all interviews heretofore they (the commit tee) had invariably the honour of an interview with their Lordships, and nut their servant. The result was an order from their Lordships to the Hight lion. • Secretary, directing him to signify to the merchants in the City that all correspondence fix the future • must cease. Sir Robert Wilson landed at Dover, on NVednes day, from France, and arrived in town on Friday, with Laly Wilson. The statement in an Ultra Government paper, is totally unfounded, that he wrote a letter to Mr. Bowring, who is still in close confinement, and not even sutkred to have any com munication with his legal adviser, though tic has received notice of trial. lit consegosnec of the assault committed on Wed nesday on Sir Hudson Lowe, by the son of Baron Las Casas, the General, it is said, with the advice of his friends intends to appeal to the laws on the subject. _ _ .

SlR.—Attracted by an advertisement in the morning papers; • Mrs. 0., a widow lady front India, attended a sale by auction 1111 • Lime -street, on Wednesday last. When she entered the room, • she was politely asked to a beat, and upon evincing bOone apps. rent ignurance of such proceedings, a person who represented himalf WI a broker recently commenced in business, made a tender of his services to purchase any article the might fancy ; or if she preferred it, ithesleieW be at liberty to select from his pur chases any furniture that would suit her, and he was siding to depend for compensation upon her generosity. Matters proceeded in this way mail the fall of the hammer upon the last lot declared the sale was terminated, when Mrs. 0., • much to her surprise, was called upon fur a deposit upon the purchases, and upon her declaring she had none, the gentleman who lied so politely tendered his service. iiithmied her that the lots lie had bought were upon her account,. and it was customary to 'alike a deposit. Mrs. 0. hesitated complying with this de- - team', until trout the peremptory conduct of the auctioneer and hie attetichims, she became alarmed, and having no money in her pocket, premised to go to her agent and procure it ; to this no objection was made. provided her sister, who had nozmnpanied her, remained as a hostage until her due return ; this also, under the alarm which had been excited. was agreed to, and Mrs. 0. proceeded to her agents in Devonshire-square, procmeel a draft of 501. upon a banker,which he paid into the ',rands of the auctioneer, and thus obtained the emancipation of her kinswoman. No sooner had Mre. O. and her sister escaped from their impri sonment, for such was literally their situation, but they proceeded to take advice as to their future proceedings, and, sunitipenied by a friend a professional gentleman, called' at the Alaniion'llome„ • when they were told by the clerk, Mr. nobler, by Mr Newman,' the City Solicitor, and by the Lord Mayor, that nothing could be done but to ende.svour to frighten the parties into a compromise, either by a return of the money, or by permitting Mrs. 0. to call in an appraiser, and to receive at his valuation a full equivalent fir her deposit of 54. In this stage of the business, I was waited upon by the frien.l of Mrs. 0., to request I would accompany him to carry the last proposition into effect, if no better terms could be made. To this request I readily acceded, but solely with an intention of urging the parties to telsgal investigation of the transaction, which ap peared to me nothing short of fraudulent extortion of inteney,and ViiiiCil I believe is daily practised by a party of twindlerif who are constantlpimpo.ing upon the pubic by mock aucti sob. When, however, I arrived at the house, instead of being con- . suites! upon the business, Mr. Cope, the City Marshal, cline oue of an apartment where the parties were assembled, and congratu lated the gentleman who had introduced me upon the turn the business had taken, and that lie had no doubt the whole of the money would be obsained back. I expressed my surprise at such a mode °feeding the businceee • and declared Wit was their intention to compromise such a ras cally transaction, 1 would hale nothing more to do with it, adding that I would myself contribute tool, towards a proseution, and give up gratuitously both time and trouble in promoting so desirable an object. The lady declared she had been so imulted that she was ready to spend 50101. in legal proceedings and wile ling to undertake any trouble that might be occasioned her..+ llowever, after much whispering between the Marshal, the sub-_ ordinate officer, the professional gentleman whom name I am not acquainted with, the matter temiinated by Mrs 0. receiving her money and complying with the demand made by the odleer fot a pecuniary &Paccar • the amount of this Ido not knww, bu. the • least 001$1 I pert:eas:din her hand was a sovereign.
