This person and his son were immediately taken to the Lazaretto, and the Junta of Health, wee summoned to assemble within 24 hours." During the worst times of the Revolution, France was exempt from this severe visitaihm ; and if u n happily the Yellow Fever should again break out in Spain, the troops composing the army of the Cordon Soisitaire, may hesitate 'ere they encounter a foe more formidable than eithet bayonet or can non. Of other foreign news the French papers contain not a single paragraph. ST. PETURSIBURGH, JUNE 28.--The circular note to the Allied Courts, issued by the Russian cabinet in the month of May, before the second mission of M. de Tatischeff, is founded partly on the official Turkish note of the 18th of April, and partly on subsequent verbal promises made to Lord Strang ford by the Reis Effendi. It did not seem that the Emperor could be satisfied with the assurance given in the note, that the Porte would fulfil its obliga tions when tranquillity would be restored. Some days later, however, the Turkish minister informed the British ambassador that all preparations were made, and orders given to fulfil as sodn'as possible the two main points in dispute, viz. the evacuation of the .principalities by the troops stationed in them, and the appointment of Christian Hospodars. In such circumstances, the only qnestion can be, whe ther the Porte will really keep his promises? The Russian circular says expressly that the Emperor has nothing more at heart than the maintenance of peace with the Porte, and no one will be more disposed 1 than himself to contribute his efforts to restore the ancient relations with that power. But at the same time it is signified in the note, that Russia depends on the further good offices of the Allied Powers, that the Emperor may not be compelled in the contrary case to take measures for the maintenance of solemn treaties, which the dignity of his crown would re quire. It appears, therefinv, that, notwithstanding the personal inclination of the Emperor to peace, the question of the future relation of Russia and the Porte is not yet decided with certainty, but that this decision will depend on the farther negociations at Constantinople, or the conduct of the Turkish Go vernment. The Imperial Guards, it is true, return to St. Petersburg'', but the corps remain ready to take the field, though orders hive been given (since the immediste breaking out of the war is in no case to be apprehended) to withdraw it to a greater dis tance from the Turkish frontiers, and place it in more extended cantonments.' It is to be observed, besides, that the Guards have never taken the field in a Turkish war; and, on this occasion, also, if hostilities had commenced with the Turks, would have remained in the Polish provinces, as a reserve and corps of observation. Glattaursa...-The Gibraltar Chronicle of the Bth ult. contains the following ...PROCLAMATION. His Excellency the Governor deems it nexssary to set on foot those precautionary measures for scenting die public health. of which the efficacy has been proved by the experience of the last seven years ; it is therefore most strongly recommended, that those inhabitants who have not passed the epidemic fever, and are in consequence liable to its attacks, do make arrangements so as to be able to retire, for the night, to the huts in the neutral ground, on or before the 25th inst. .• Camp equipage will be issued to the poorer classes of inhabitants, who in like manner have not passed the period of the fever, under the same regulations as in die years above men tioned. " Given at Gibraltar this Gth day of July. 1822. *. CHATHANI, Governor. (By command) "S. H. CHAPMAN. Civil Secretary." Extract of a letter from a Spanish house at the Havanna'', dated May 28.—" NVe have recom mended to Mr. in case of his chartering a vessel, to choose one armed with fuur guns at least, having from 16 to 20 men, with a sufficient number of muskets sad ammunition to defend her against the pirates with which our coast is swarming. A great number of American vessels have been plun dered, and their crews most cruelly treated, which has induced the Government of the United Suites to send u light squadron of brigs and schooners to their seas. One of them, the Grampus, retook the British brig Cherub, Capt. Winder, from Buenos Ayres, bound to this port, which was in possession of four open boats tilled with pirates: one was sunk by the Grampus, one sent in here, and the two others escaped. Wu would wish to see two or three of your fine frigates here, and some brigs and schooners, to protect the trade against these depredators. They must be sunk without mercy, and not be brought into Ws port, where they all find padrinos, or protectors, who, to4ether with the dilatory proceedings of our courts of law, ensure their perfect impunity. The Lords of the Treasury have sent an order to Mr. Thacker, the keeper of Whitecross-street prison, to discharge Mr. Butt, after having sutliactl cap tit ity just seven years. BANKRUPTS. T. Atwood.

LON DON, SUNDAY AUGUST 4. In another column will be found the report of a Coroner's Inquest held at York, upon a poor fellow of the Second Regiment'of Fout, who was flogged to death for having in his possession a silver spoon which belonged to the Mess of the Regiment !—We thought that the humane interference of Sir Francis Burdett had caused such brutalities as once dis graced our country to be done away with—we thought that flogging a soldier was now no longer legal—we thought that a Commanding Officer no longer erjuyed the power of lacerating his fellow countrymen, shrouded under the sentence of a pliant Court-martial; but it appears we must have been mistaken, for if it had been, as we supposed, the more brief verdict of " Wilful Mulder" must have been returned —We most sincerely hope, that the WM. 111CIICelfiellt of the next session will be consecrated by passing an Act of Parliament, forbidding such a de w-Nautical of Englishmen—and then, should a con viction take place fur a disregard of so proper, so humane an enactment, we doubt not but the law would be allowed to tako its curse, for we are sure that the Minister of the Crown, who in such a case should advise the interposition of the Royal de nicncy, would richly deserve not only the gallows, but to be gibbetted as an cxanp!e to his si;cc,..ssors. r IMPORTANT TO MARINERS. The following particularly. claims the notice of those engaged in the Quebec trade and its vicinity : —Extract of a letter from a Captain of the Royal Navy, dated Island of Cape Breton, 20th of May, It frequently happens, that a ship hound from England to Quebec, strikes soundings on the hanks of Newfoundland, and shapes her course thence to pass between Cape North on this island, and Cape Ley on Newfoundland, into the Gulf M St. Lawrence, without seeing the land, which is hid in fog, SIM, unable to make a proper allowance for a current that sometimes runs at the rate of four miles an hour, is swept awAy to the westward, and runs with a leading wind on our iron-bound shores, when her commander fancies he is steering directly into the golf--a misfortune that is too often announced by the bodies of the unhappy mariners, and the fragments of their vessels, with which our shores are strewed. It should be made known that there is a settlement in Aspry Bay, to the south ward and westward of Cape North ; as, fur want of this infor. formation, twiny an unfortunate seitinautan has peiiidied from cold and hunger, after shipwreck i and that ves►els of any draught of water may safely anchor all round the island, as wind and weather may require. The soundings at half to three quarters of a mile are 7toS to fathoms. On time south-east as well u on the north-west side of the island, is a cove where boats may land and water be procured." Extract of a letter front Quebec. dated the Ist of June, 1822: - - - " From twenty-seven years' experience this trade, no vessel ought to sail from Great Britain or Ireland after the 10th of September for the river St. Lawrence if they intend to return before the close of the navigation." ASCENT FROM CHLLTLNIIAM.—Oo Tuesday afternoon, at half-past three o'clock, Mr. Green s the ■ronant, with a gent!. - man named Griffith, of the Cheltenham Chronicle, made an ascent with!a large and very beautiful balloon, from a yard at the back of the London hotel, in this town, amidst a more nunteroue as semblage of nobility, gentry, and fashionablre, than was ever witnessed in this place on any former occasiou. The towu was filled with carriages and vehicles of every description, and numbers of persons from Bath, Bristol, Gloucester, Tewkes bury, Worcester, and all the neighbouring counties thronged at an early hour towards the object of attraction. At one o'clock the spacious yard was nearly tilled with ladies and gentlemen, and the balloon was slung up to a rope near 5o feet high in the centre, when the inflation commenced under the direction of Mr. Spinney, the superiuteudant oldie gas works, to whom Mr. Green expressed his thanks, before liu took his flight, for the able manner in which lie had conducted the tilling. 'l•he weather was very favourable, and by three o'clock it was filled ; and displayed a most delightful transparent globe, quartered iu al tern .le coloore of blue, red, and yellow, in size beyond any thing every before seen in England. At half past three o'clock the gentlemen entered the car (which was ol• Inuit costly and elegaat structure, a gift to the aeronaut by Colonel Redden et this place) apparently in high spirits ; they both displayed the utmost coolness and intrepidity ; and having attached the cords, they bade adieu to their friends. when at the moment the car was removed to the huller end of the ground to windward, it was discovered that some most wicked person bad cut une of the cords that suspended it from the net work. Mr. Green, with the greatest promptitude, ordered every Iverson to leave the ear, and when urged to have the curd reptured, lie replied, " I'll not bawd lite cutting of auotiier cord—l do not depend upon one line only, unloose the ropes." The wards were loosened immediately, and the balloon ascended in the most majestic manner, amidst the plaudits of tbouaitods. The voyagers re mained in sight upwards of twenty minutes, and the greatest delight and ►atisfaction were expressed by every beholder.— Bets, amounting to many thousand pounds, were depending on the asceut. Lord Shelbourne was on the ground, with several uobletutn. Within little more than a mile and a half of Sal perton, they determined to descend—the car beiug at that time only upheld by one side of the balloon ; their grappling iron came in contact with a wall, into which it was fastened by some country people near the spot, but it was speedily torn ■way, and they were dragged fur the distance of four fields, knocked from hedge to hedge, till at length the balloon carry ing them over a large grove up in the air, the car got entangled in a tree, and the inhuman means taken for their destruction proved, under the goodness and mercy of Heave..., the cause of their preservation ; the ropes which had been partly cut, gave way. Freed Iron all coutroul, the balloon ascended, and they were long in Nutgrove-lield, from a tremendous hei g ht to the ground ; Mr. Green insensible and nearly lifeless, with his companion, lay for some time apparently senseless. Yhey were promptly let blood by Mr. Linsley, surgeon, from North • leach. who had crossed the country to watch the progress o: the balloon. Mr. Morley, of this town, speedily hastened to Turk Dean, accompanied by Mr. Demean, and did every thing that humanity and skill could effect. On 3Vedoesday the billow ing bulletin was issued We have examined Mr. Green and the gentleman who ascended with him. in consequence of their accident from the descent of the balloon, and Gild thou butte very seriously injured ; Mr. Green has a severe cuntusiou uti the left side of the chest, but unattended with fracture of the ribs. The other gentleman has received a severe injury of the spine, but unutteuded with paralysis of the limbs. '• C. LAMLEY, Surgeon, Northleach. " S. H. MURLEY, Surgeon, Cheltenham." CAUTION TO CHIEF CONSTABLES.—On the chief couittablee attending at the Assizes at Lincoln on Monday, to make oath that nothing presentable bad come to their knowledge, it was suggested to his lordship by the clerk of assize, that in Lis and some neighbouring counties the chief rotatable* were in the habit of attending. but that they considered ►he bring celled on for presentments was a were matter of form. Mr. Justice. Iluiroyd thercnpon addressed the chief coustables. and told them that they were not to rest satisfied with sweating that nothing presentable had come to their knowledge, but it was their duty to wake diligent inquiry, and ascertain whether there was any thing to be presented—if they neglected to do this, they were liable to he indictrd for a gross neglect of duty.— Ilia lordship did not mean to insinuate that there had been any neglect on their parts, but it might be useful to rewind them that they were bound by their oaths of office to make full in vestigation. CHELTENIIAM, AUGUST I.—A subscription has been opened for Mr. Green and family, and the list of subscribers is nut only numerous, but its amount is considerable. A report leis just been erceived that the balloon has been taken up at Wood s.ock, and that it is very little injured. Mr. Green's wife and son are here, and their distress is beyond description. A re port was brought this morning into town by a feistier, that Mr. Green was dead ; but within the Net hour, the suigeun, 311. Marty, has arrived with intelligence of both of the gentlemen beiubeng in better.
