ROBBERY OP JEWELLERY.—Yesterday informa tion was given to the Commissioners of City police of a rublery committed during the previous night on the premises of Mr. Samuel Harris, an importer of foreign goods, situated in Houndsditch, and a reward of 1001. has since been offered fur information leading to the appre hension and conviction of the thieves. It seems that, in spite of the lesson taught by the great robbery at the shop of Mr. Walker, the watchmaker and jeweller in Conant!, there are still persons in the City who, not residing on premises they occupy for purposes of business, are accustomed to leave them during the night without the protection which would be afforded by some one sleeping there. The result of such an arrange ment has often been in other cases that thieves have managed to secrete themselves in places of business before they are closed for the night, and then, having been shut in and left in sole possession of the premises deserted by the legitimate occupiers, to watch for opportunities of committing a robbery. In this case the thieves are supposed to have concealed themselves in a stable yard adjoining the shop of Mr. Harris, and separated from it by a low wall. This they scaled during the night, and entering the premises by a window proceeded to operate upon an iron safe, containing jewellery of various kinds. kor that purpose they appear to have been armed with suitable implements, for after they had broken open and ransacked the safe they left some of their tools, and these of a formidable kind, behind them. They took with them 150 gold guard chains of various patterns, 100 silver watches, 50 gold watches, 150 pairs of gold ear-rings, *lO gold lockets, 500 gold signet, wedding, keeper, and gem rings, 100 pairs of gold snaps, several dozens of gold split rings, shirt studs, collar studs, spring-back hooks and swivels. The matter is now in the hands of the police, but up to last evening the thieves, who got clear away with all this booty, had not been apprehended. ROBBERY IN THE LEEDS CORN MARKET.—Yes terday forenoon, during the market hours in the Leeds Corn Exchange, a serious robbery was committed. Mr. C. Kelsey, • highly respectable corn merchant from Hull, who has • stand and desk in the Exchange, lost the large sum of 1,17aW., which was in notes and gold. The money was in a canvas bag, and was placed on the stand, from which, when Mr. Kelsey bad for a moment or two turned his face to speak to some gentleman in the market, the beg and its valuable contents were boldly and adroitly at. stracted. As soon as the robbery was discovered the doors of the exchange were closed, and a search was made for the thief, but without effect. A TRAIN SNOWED UP FOR TWEIVII Hot - its.— The sudden thaw on Saturday evening caused the mow accumulated on the sides of the cuttings between Andover and Salisbury to give way, and the line, in consequence, became blocked up. The 5.10 p.m. train from London to Salisbury ran into • drift of about 7ft. of snow between Grately and Porton, and was unable to proceed further. A telegram announcing the fact was forwanled to Mr. Davis, the district superintendent at Salisbury, who also ascertained that the 7.57 p.m. train from Salisbury bad been stopped at Porton. Mr. Davis got • staff of men together, and with • powerful goods engine immediately proceeded up the line to render whatever assistance might be in his power. A heavy storm of hail prevailed at the time, and the snow was forced down the sidings in such quantities that the engine got " drifted up" about two miles and a half from Porton. With great difficulty Mr. Davis forced hie way on to that station on foot. and at once made arrangements for dig gm' g out the down train. As soon as possible men were brought to the opposite end of the cutting, but notwith standing that both parties worked most energetically during the night, it was nearly 8 o'clock on Sunday morn ing before the snow was cleared away from the engine and carriages. The train had been at a standstill for nearly twelve hours. MARRIED BY MISTAKE —Last evening Edward Thayer awl Miss Melcn P. Jellman, attended by Mr. Austin Humphrey and Annie E. Crause, went to St. Paul's Church, the former couple to get married, and the latter to act as groomsman and bridesmaid. They all stood up before the altar, and the officiating clergyman, the Rev. Mr. Dunn, supposing that both couples were to be married, requested the gentlemen to join hands with their respec tive ladies, which was done, and in a very short space of time the four were made two. The situation being fully realised by the latter couple, they concluded to accept what they could not eery well help, and all adjourned to their boarding-house quite well pleased with the result of the preacher's mistake.—Ddroit Union. LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, JANUARY 9, 1867. TELEGRAPHIC INTELLIGENCE. (ILIUM'S Tirsaiumn.) THE NORTH GERMAN PARLIAMENT. BERLIN, JAN. 8. A semi-official denial is given to the news pub lished by some journals of Rhenish-Prussia to the effect that the government had given secret in structions that as many public functionaries as possible should become candidates for seats in the North German parliament. THE BAVARIAN CHAMBERS. MUNICH, JAN 8. The Chambers were opened to-day. Prince Hohenlohe, the now Minister for Foreign Affairs, was present. The government introduced bills for granting indemnities to the provinces which suffered by the war, for re-organizing the communes, removing restrictions upon the exercise of certain trades, and authorising an extraordinary credit for the re-or ganization of the army. THE E3CHELDT QUESTION. BERLIN, JAN. 8. It is stated that Prussia has declared her inten tion to join England and France in sending a awl,' commissioner to inquire into the affair of the Scheldt. AUSTRIA. VIENNA, JAL 8. The Emperor and Empress received to-day • numerous deputation sent by the Hungarian Diet to congratulate their Majesties on the opening of the new year. The Emperor, in reply to an address from the spokesman of the deputation, expressed hopes that the new year would afford, by the bless ings of peace, some compensation for the losses which had befallen the country, and that in Hun gary the sure bases of public welfare and constitu tional development might, by the display of mutual confidence, be the more speedily and lastingly strengthened. HUNGARY. PESTH, JAN. S. The leaders of all parties in the Hungarian Diet have resolved to bring forward an address express ing disapproval of the Imperial patent recently issued, sanctioning a new system for recruiting the army. The proposed address will declare that the urgency which exists for the re-organization of the army is in itself a proof of the necessity for re establishing the constitution. ITALY. FLORENCE, JAN. 8. It is stated that the negotiations with the Papal court on the question of appointing bishops to the vacant sees have terminated. The bishops will be appointed by the Pope in concert with the Italian government, and it will thus be possible to omit the formality of the erequatur. The question of the reduction of the number of dioceses has not yet been discussed. RUSSIA. ST. PETERSBURG, JAN. 8.

Acet DENT TO THE QUEEN OP HOLLAND.—A letter from the Hague, dated the sth inst., and published in the Avenir National of yesterday, says :—" The Queen met with an accident to-day. While walking from her own palace to that of her eon, the Prince of Orange, she slipped upon the snow, and fell with such violence that she became insensible. A soldier who was on the spot raised the Queen, and one of the King's aides-de-camp having hastened from the palace, they carried her into the royal apartmenta. It is hoped that this fall will not lead to serious consequences." THE QUEEN OP SPAIN AND THE MUNICIPALITY or MADRID.—In reply to a loyal address recently pre sented to her by the municipality of Madrid, the Queen of Spain said :—"I acccept with genuine satisfaction the demonstration of attachment which you have expressed towards me in the name of the City of Madrid. I feel as you do, that the first conditicn necessary for the pros perity of the municipal interests is the preservation of public order. I thank you for the assurances of loyalty which you proffer to me, the King, my dear husband, and the Prince of the Asturias, and the Infanta., my beloved children. May God graciously fulfil your desires and the wishes you express for the prosperity of this heroic city, in which I was born and educated, which has been the f ,vourits residence of my court during so many years, and to which my familyis indebted for sacrifices that will never be effaced from my memory." LETTER FROM THE EMPEROR DiAXIMILIAN. The France publishes the following letter from the Em peror of Mexico to M. bins, President of the Council of Ministers :—" My dear Sir,—The gravity of the present condition of our country has led us to call to our aid the councillors of the crown, in order that, by their clear and prudent judgment, we may arrive by legal means at a solution of the existing difficulties. A weighty duty is now imposed upon us, but we have a thorough conviction that the welfare of the country demands its accomplish ment. After reflection, free from all party prejudice and passion, after a long and conscientious examination of the position, we have arrived at the conclusion that it might be our duty to restore to the Mexican nation', the power which it bad confided in us. The fol lowing are the reason, which confirm us in this opinion. First, the civil war still continues, with grief we state the fact ; it stains the devastated territories with the blood of thousands of our country men, and is every day assuming vaster proportions : second' , the hostility of the United States towards the monarchial principle is daily becoming more marked ; thirdly, our allies have declared it impossible for them, from political reasons, to continue their support, and it has even lately come to our knowledge that there have been negotiations between the French and United States governments with the object of corning to an agreement as to the means of putting an end to the civil war which has so long been ravaging our country. Considering the opinion of the great majority of the American people, it would not be possible, they Sar, to attain that end, except by founding, by the aid of those two powers, a new government of • republican form. Although it has pleased Providence to destroy the happiness of our domestic hearth, and although our courage and strength have consequently been unduly tried, we should not for a moment hesitate to make any sacrifices for the welfare of the nation, if we had not well-founded reasons for believing that our person would prove an obstacle to the pacification of the country. These are the motives for calling round us the counsels of the ministers —who have already given us so many proofs of their ad hesion and fidelity—with the object of finding a solution for existing difficulties.—Miwithuit." EXPRESS FROM PARIS. SECRET SOCIETIES IN FRANCE. (nom OUR OWN 001WINSPONDINT.) PARIS. TOMAS Evwio. There was never a more frivolous cam of a pro secution for belonging to a secret society than that which culminated yesterday in the by no means nominal sentences of the various terms of imprison, meat against twenty-two citizens, which I have already mentioned.. What is a secret society is by no means a simple question to answer. The opponents of the law against secret societies asked in vain for a definition when it was passed, and no definition has ever been given since. In the present case the whole thing proved against the accused was that they were, with twenty-two other people not prose cuted, in a public billiard-room in the large Cafd Matthieu on the Boulevard St. Michel, where a political pamphlet was read on the night of their arrest, and that several of them had attended the "civil" burial of persons belonging to the society of Solidaires, founded by a student named Aria• tides Rey, who pledge themselves to each other to di* ,without receiving the sacrament, and to do their utmost to be buried without religious cere monies. Some of the defendants attended the Liitge Congress, where doctrines were enunciated which led to the expulsion of several students who uttered or approved them from the Paris University. The pamphlet read at the meeting at the calif was one published in London by M. Felix Pyat, which I, an old advocate of liberty for France, do not hesitate to characterise as most wicked and abominable. It was an undisguised exhortation to the students of France to assassinate the Emperor. It called for a second Orsini, and cited the assassination of President Lincoln by a political friend of slavery as an example which should a fortiori stimulate generous French youth to murder the Emperor. The Advocate- General, M. Lepelletier, read the whole of this incendiary pamphlet to the court in order to excite a prejudice, and it is all printed in the Droit and Gazette des Tribunatm. But he admitted that it was irrelevant to the question at lame. He quoted it to show the principles of at least some of the people who listened to it, but confessed that it wan no proof of the secret society. In like manner he quoted, not as evidence, but merely by way of illustration, the statutes of the Society of Solidairva, a society to which some of the accused belong. These statutes, which, but for the publicity given to them by this trial, would be as little known in France as they probably are in England, are thus worded : STATUTES or THE SOCIETY " ACT AS YOU THINK." 1. Whereas he only is an honest man whose acts are always conformable to his convictions, and such a man cannot in his heart despise and condemn certain cere monies and yet practise them. 2. Whereas conscience repudiates all religions, since they all seek to govern man by the vilest consideration — his interests and his lean ; and whereas our more en lightened intelligence rejects the various beliefs of primi tive people now transformed into religious dogmas ; and whereas reason gives us knowledge and truth, and the good which is inseparable from the true cannot possibly coexist with the lying doctrines of any sect whatsoever. . 3. 4 0.0 wheeem;o3;ununioa of ideas between man and woman can alone found a family ; whereas a rational edu cation is necessary for a child, and to impose upon him beliefs in opposition to all that his growing reason reveals to him is to bias his judgment, blind his intellect, and pervert his conscience ; and, whereas oar weakness in re gard to the defenders of the past to whom we abandon our women, is the main cause of the sufferings of our modern society. The undersigned, therefore, promise and engage with each other never to receive any sacrament of any church ; they desire to have no religious ceremonies whatsoever, either for births, marriages, or deaths. They do not form a secret society ; they have no other positive bond of union than the inscription of their names on the present re gister, and can never assemble together except for the purpose of paying the last duties to one of the confra ternity. The counsel for the defence urged in vain that the fact of attending funerals of Solidaires, with whom the accused had no personal acquaintance, was no more than thu fact of their listening in a cafe to Felix Pyat's pamphlet a proof that they belonged to a secret society. There might possibly have been a pretext for indicting them for attend ing without permission a meeting of more than twenty persons, but that count had been aban doned by the prosecution as untenable. Counsel also insisted very pertinently upon this, that if there really was a secret society in the billiard room of the cafe all the forty-two persona arrested must have been members of it, whereas only twenty-two were selected for prosecution. No ex planation was vouchsafed by the crown counsel of this difficulty. Foaziow-orrice, JAN. B.—The Secretary of State fur Foreign Affairs has received from her Majesty's Charge-d'Affaires at Vienna an order, issued by the Aus trian government, dated 28th December, 1866, respecting the customs' treatment of British, Italian, and French productions, which was to come into operation on the Ist of January, 1867, and to take effect in all the countries of the general Austrian customs jurisdiction. A translation of the document will be found in the Gazette of yesterday evening. FOREION-orrice, JAN. 4.—The Queen has been pleased to approve of Don Victor Shakery as consul at Liverpool for the Republic of Costa Rica.— • . Earl Fitzwilliam, in acknowledging a vote of thanks on Thursday for presiding over a large meeting of the subscribers to the Oaks Colliery Relief Fund, held at Manchester, said the conduct of two young men in going down the pit after the explosions and rescuing a man at the risk of their own lives, was worthy of much admiration that he had considered it his duty, in his official capacity, to communicate with her Majesty on the subject. lie had received a most gratifying and grac ious answer, in which her Majesty expressed her "un bounded gratification and admiration of the heroic conduct displayed by Mr. Merriman and Mr. Buibleton jun., on the occision." On the motion of Mr. Stanhope, it was agreed that some fitting memorial should be placed in some public part of the town in commemoration of the event. Lord Milton seconded the motion, which was agreed to. DEATH IN THE SNOW.—PiewszT TEESDAY.— This quiet Wiltshire village has been thrown into a most painful state of excitement by the death, in the snow, of Mr. Pople, parish clerk of Pewsey church, who was tho roughly esteemed : by all classes throughout this district. Mr. l'ople, in addition to his duties at the church, carried on the business of fishmonger, and on Thursday he started from home, and visited the villages of Burbage and Collingbourne. In the afternoon he commenced his return journey, and on passing through the Barbee., turnpike the keeper requested him to have • cup of tea, but be declined the offer, and continued his walk home wards, having several miles to go. Ile walked about a mile further, and it appears that be must then have lost his way, or intended to have taken a short route across the fields, as he was found by a labourer on the follow ing day lying a short distance from the road, quite 'Th dead. e body of the unfortunate man was removed to a neighbouring public-house, where an inquest has since been held. The evidence given left little doubt but that be died from apoplexy, induced by exposure to the intense cold. •••••••:- ABOLITION OP THE BESHEL MKASURE.—The Chicago Board of Trade have voted an approval of the "oeutal " as the standard of measurement for grain, seeds, &a, instead of the " bushel," as at present, the new system to take effect ma the Ist of January inst.— provided the leading Boards of Trade in the country agree to adopt it. Action has also been taken by the Boards of Trade of Albany, Buffalo, Cleveland, and Detroit, with the view of substituting the rental for the present cumbrous and unequal system of measuring by the bushel. [STAMPED, Id. ADDITIONAL.] CIWOPENCE PARIS IN THE SNOW. shrieks of the people crowding round would have done credit to a menagerie. Neither man clenched his fist nor stood upright, but, in hall-wrestling fashion, scrambled and kicked until they fell, the younger undermost, with his opponent's knee upon his face and chest, kneading him with the action of a pestle in a mortar. Then the crowd knelt down too, some aiding the victor on all fours, others pulling him off the man he continued to punish, and all clawing and shrieking in a strangely feminine way. Finally, the carman was driven off by a friend, bleeding at nose and mouth, and fol lowed by the snow-balls of his unsatisfied assail ants. This scene took place within fifty yards of a police-station, in broad daylight, and with as little interference from administration or authorities as if neither were in existence. It formed a striking contrast to a London street row throughout, both from the clawing action and open hands of the fighters, their frantic ejaculations, kicks, scratch ing., and pinching., and the childish delight of the bystanders, who ran off to the police-station directly the carman was seen off, " to tell of him " as it were, like so many boys at school, before re commencing their snowballing with cries and imi tations of what took place. Within the railed-in enclosure of the Palais Royal a long slide was formed on the frozen snow, upon which boys and men went merrily up and down all day, and until a late hour at night, shocking some English bystanders by their indiffer ence to the grain of the ice, and the impunity with which they allowed each other to run upon and throw snow over it. These episodes, however, are merely indicative of the " permission to play" given by the administration at this time, and do not affect the broad fact that Paris rose superior to the wintry attack under which London seems to have succumbed. After the first three days of the snow, and when a hard frost set in, an even more striking instance of administrative promptitude occurred. On Sun day morning last a heavy rain came down and froze directly it fell. This did not begin till after 1 a.m., and was at its worst between 2 and 3, making the streets as slippery as glass. Walking was most difficult, and riding impossible. The writer's umbrella was so completely frozen in an half-hour's walk, or rather hobble, from the Rue de la Paix, that it could not be closed ; and he saw the shafts of three vellums broken in as many minutes, through their horses falling back ; the masquers both at the Opera-house and the Valen tino had to slide and tumble home, and the streets were literally impassable. This was at 3 a.m., yet before 8 all was remedied, the whole broad thoroughfare bestrewn with yellow sand, and car riages and pedestrians traversing it as usual. a New Paris like frame • ookaasisamoassx. Year's -d ay d London, ayw hi beganch bad its in t dirs hree an da d yf wet, A ie and was keenly cold and brightly frosty at midnight, came a heavy fall, and the city woke the following morning to find itself enveloped in a thick white blanket, with too the snowy flakes Descending, and with norrer-oeudna lapse Softly alighting upon all below. Nothing could have been more sudden or unex pected. It had been even mild in the early part of the previous day, while at night the stars shone brightly and the air had the crisp sharpness which so often foreruns • long and bitter frost. It seemed far too cold for snow. Yet the emergency had been fully provided for before the day's business began, and concurrently with the discovery of the fall the looker-on saw the process of its removal. At no time was traffic suspended. The eoitures and maims plied as usual, the omnibuses passed from stopping-place to stopping-place, and the holders of "correspondence" tickets were never, so far as I saw, disappointed. It is true the pace became wretchedly slow, and the demand both for cabs and omnibus places was so enormously in excess of sup ply that walking was imperative in many instances. But the visiting and card-leaving of the season was as much responsible for this as the weather, and it is • simple face that the organisation of the city pre vented both riders and pedestrians from suffering severely from what seems to have stopped the busi ness of London for many consecutive hours. But, it may be urged, the fan of snowy in Paris must have been trivial to that in England, and there was, perhaps, small merit in dealing with it successfully. The supposition is correct as to fact, but utterly fallacious in inference. In places which had not been dealt with by the authorities the snow was several inches deep, and in the higher portions of the suburbs huge drifts testified in the early part of the day to what the condition of the boulevards and streets would have been if left to right themselves. My business carried me to the outskirts of the city, and the bye-roads near the hospital for aged female paupers, Salpetriere, some of the long wharves on the more distant banks of the Seine, the suburbs stretching towards Ivry, were all heavily clogged with snow. This was before noon. Later, after spending some hours in the hospice, we found a marked improvement, and the road cleaners and restorers were then busily at work. Every vehicle we saw was engaged, and there was nothing for it but to walk back. All along the Seine, past the Morgue, round by Notre Dame, by place and street to the very centre of the city, and on every side, were men at work or evi dences of work performed. The traffic on the main Boulevards was far greater than usual, the shops Yesterday a very numerous m deputation connected were full of customers, the cafeSs in the full swing with the Ke tins the better local gove unu tt l of the metropolis for pm"' of business.
