but the .tny get ired I remain your's, Sec. J. L. Louisa has issued a decree, by which she deliversl to the rigour of the laws all those who have taken any part in the insurrection. She forgets that she i s the widow of Napoleon. Report speaks loudly in praise of the person of the Ex-Empress of Brazil, and the memory of her father appears to render her an object of touching interest to the French, while the Emperor is a butt for satire. I enclose the Journals, and will inform you to-morrow whe ther we continue in a land of peace. The Government directs at this moment upon Paris a great number of regiments, and particu larly those which it believes contains officers the most devoted to the doctrines of the just medium. These regiments will be found assembled here to wards the beginning of July ; they will augment to 26,000 men the garrison of the capital. Thus,, there is confidence full and entire in the protesta tions between sweet and sour of the kings of the holy alliance ; confidence in Austria, confidence in Prussia, confidence even in Talleyrand ; but mis treat of the patriots to whom they owe all. What a system I—La Revolution. News of great importance has just arrived from Warsaw. The Ukraine has risen entirely ; Mo hilow and several other cities have revolted against the Emperor. The following are the motives to which are attributed that revolution : the Court of Russia, informed that the nobles of the Ukraine were plot ting a conspiracy to render themselves independent, gave secretly orders to the Greek priests to insi nuate to the peasantry to shake off their lords. Those who had entered into the plot, immediately gave liberty to their peasants, and assigned them land and property. The enthusiasm has become general. Both thel ords and the peaaantry,have sworn to perish for independence. Gen. Chlapowsky has already united around him 36,000 insurgents. It is not known what Diebitsch has done. Some think that he is in pursuit of Gielgud; others say that he was wounded at the affair of Ostrolenka.— That which is certain is, that the peasants have reported, that after the battle they perceived a litter, escorted by several squadrons and generals, who had their heads bare. It was also supposed that it might be the Grand Duke Michael.—The insurrection of the Ukraine will have great results. No province is more fertile in corn, nor abounds more in horses; and it reaches nearly to Wallachia and Moldavia , where exists all the germs of revo lution."—La National. This moment we have received the news that Colonel Sierakowaki, supported by the patriots, has had, near Marianpol, with a numerous corps of Russians, a battle, as bloody as that of Ostrolen ka, with this difference, that it has been more favourable to us. It is said that that city was , taken twice by our troops, and twice retaken by the Russians : at last, in a third attack, the Poles seized Marianpol, and remained masters of it.— Gazette Polonaise. Extract from the letter of a German physician, dated Warsaw, May 30th :—" These last days, I have been called to Prep, the corps of the army of the Generalissimo having prompt need of medi cal succour. I have seen the formidable entrench ments of Praga. Without the sacrifice of an en tire army, the Russians cannot get possession of it; and what a spot fer repose and refreshment is of fered in that place to the fatigued soldiers ! There they will find all which they reqnire, whilst the Russian troops are obliged to encamp in de stroyed villages, and threatened with being de prived of necessary provisions. In the camp before Warsaw, there are nearly six thousand sick and wounded ; but it is not the cholera which occupies us the most—that engages us but little, in comparison with nervous fevers and inflammation of the intestines. Many of the physicians have fallen sick. However, here every body is arranged as if the enemy were already before the gates. All Warsaw is mined, and they can blow up each street one after another. In every barricade, there are placed cannon, and the arsenal is filled with grenades, grape shot and bombs. There neither fails ammunition nor money. I have seen, near Praga, several sol diers fourteen years of age, and decorated. In all the villages which we have traversed, the old and the young are exercising themselves in arms, and never will any Russian army sur prise them ; for near each village, upon all the elevated points, there are large piles of straw, which will be set fire to at the approach of the enemy. The inhabitants will retreat, until they find themselves sufficiently strong to resist ; and they will voluntarily abandon their cottages, where there is not much to be lost. General Chlapowski has already taken the Russian city of Bilsk, and effected his junction with the Lithuanian in surgents. Gie/gud has cut off the corps of Sacken from the grand Russian army, and he will be now near Raigrod. Thus, that General operates on the left, and Chlapowski on the right, in order to spread the insurrection as much as possible. VI EN NA, JUNE 9.—" The King of the French has written with his own hand to the Emperor of Austria, to demand pardon for General Zucchi. The Emperor of Austria has replied with his own hand to the King of the French, that justice will follow its ordinary course. General Zucchi was condemned to death, and if his punishment has been commuted, it is not out of respect to the re commendation of the King of the French. For a long time the Emperor of Austria has not allowed the execution cf those condemned for political of fences ; he is content by allowing them to remain in the dungeons of Spielberg, where they suffer the long agony of rigorous imprisonment. PIEDMONT.—TURIN, JUNE 10.—The King has, it is said, announced that he will imitate the example of the King of Naples, on the 4th of No vember, the day of his fete, that is to say, give an amnesty to the men who have yet five months to suffer. Our illusions, relative to the sympathy which the new King appeared to nourish for France, begins to evaporate ; those who visit at Court, as sure us that Charles-Albert is even more than his predecessor attached to the Austrian Cabinet. It is certain that all the avowed partisans of Austria are in great favour at Court. BOASSELI3, JUNE 15..•-.(PRIVATE COREES PON DENCE).—The news of the revolution of Am sterdam is not confirmed. During the suspension of the Sitting of the Congress, there was circulated letter, addressed from London, to M. Vallez, Se- cretary-General of Marine, by M. Vandeweyer, in which be said that we must not put faith in all the journals said upon the refusal of Prince Leopold, and upon the occupation of Belgium by the Pow rr+• M. Vandeweyer says that the Commissioners have set the greatest hope in the acceptance of the Prince, and in the arrangement of the affairs of Belgium, to the general satisfaction. To-morrow the Ministry will publish a Journal, which will be entitled the Belgian Moniteur. The project of placing Prince Leopold upon the throne of Belgium is found to be a work of so much difficulty, that it may be looked upon as nearly abandoned by the five great Powers. Never theless, the Conference of London, and principally the representatives of France and England at that Conference, feel that it becomes urgent to termi nate the affair of Belgium, in order that they may at last occupy themselves with Poland, of which the re-establiabment concerns them, not only as ' an act of high justice, but as the most powerful gua rantee, and the most solid, that can be obtained in order to maintain the peace of Europe. It ap pears that the impossibility of finding another prac ticable combination has a little reconciled England and Prussia with the idea of the union of Belgium and France. However, they would still put in execution of that project avaricious conditions ; amongst others, that the fortresses should be de molished, they would declare Antwerp a free port and city. We believe that the Conference of Lon don will take, before the end of the month, a defi nitive resolution, on the subject of that combination for the arrangement of the affairs of Belgium."— Le National. THE EVENING STAR. LONDON. _.....__ MONDAY. JUNE 20. It is now said to be ascertained, in the best in formed political circles, that no amendment will be moved to the Address in the House of Lords ; and that no opposition will be made to the Reform Bill, till after the measure shall be introduced into the House of Peers. Despatches from Warsaw have been received this day at the Foreign Office, dated the 4th inst. at which time the Russian and Polish armies re mained in statu quS ; but an important battle was hourly expected. We present to-day to the readers of the STAR, a selection of extracts from the Papers we have received from our Correspondent in Paris, in which will be observed some articles of import ant intelligence, to which we think it our duty to direct the special attention of our readers, as we feel persuaded they are not to be found in the columns of any of our evening cotemporaries. The most interesting among the paragraphs to which we refer are, Ist. an extract from Le Na tional, giving an account of an insurrection in the Ukraine ; 2nd. an extract from La Gazette Polonnaise, stating that a victory had been ob tained by the Polish Officer, SIEDAICODULI, at Mariampol ; and 3d. an interesting extract from the letter of a German Physician at Warsaw, giving a curious and highly satisfactory account of the present state of that Capital. In our City article there is a report mentioned of the death of General Diebitsch ; and although that report may not be true to the letter, it is ob servable that the serious indisposition of that Gene ral is mentioned in one of the paragraphs we have above referred to; and in likewise our extracts from the Foreign Papers, which have reached us by the German Mails of this morning. From the extract of a Brussels letter, published in Le National, it will be seen that the acceptance of Prince LEOPOLD is not yet despaired of in that , city ; and, in the political cbales of London, we have occasion to halve. that it is ossistntood that Prince LEOPOLD will accept the Belgic °rank on certain conditions :—viz. that his of the sovereignty shall be sanctioned by the five great Powers, and that the boundary line shall be forthwith established. In thus giving a kind of index raironnie of our exclusive intelligence, we must not omit to call the attention of our Readets to the private letter of our correspondent, describing the unfortunately precarious tranquillity of the French Capital. Disturbances, and popular excitement, distin guish Paris at this moment just as in the periods of the Revolution, and in July last year; and those who have watched the history of France since 1789 consider them as forerunners of changes, which will bring the Revolution of 1830 within the true object of its own principles. The Ministers in the mean time, are not inactive, and their Journals give different colours to the causes of disturbance; but that discontent must be very general which leads thousands to assemble, what a waishmaker beats a ballad-singer, or when some men bad collected who wanted work. Proclamations of the Ministers flatter and CORE the National Guard, but LAFATETTS has undone the effect of these by a little, charging the BIN° with bad faith ; and the Government seem to have passed the Rubicon in searching the house of Gen. Dusouao, a man very popular with the army, and a personal con nection of LAFAYETTE. Many arrests, too, have taken place, and among them some of public cha racters. How much more trouble is often taken to persevere in wrong, than at once to do right ! We observe that Lord GRANVILLE has come home ; and that on his arrival, be had an immediate interview with the Secretary for Foreign Affairs. A grand political dilater given yesterday, by the Marquis of Loa DONDLEIRT, may be considered as the rallying of the Boronglimongers, and as proof that the victory of the people will not be achieved without a struggle. The Journals have been coax ing, flattering, and threatening ; but the party is, it seems, not to be diverted from its object, and 01 the late Elections ere, we suppose, only to be re garded u skirmishes, before the great Legislative Contest. There were present at this rendezvous, the Dukes of CUMBERLAND, GLOUCYJITSR, Goa DON, NEWCASTLE, and BEAUFORT ; the MU guinea of SALISBURY, AYLESBURY, CHANDOS, EXETER, and HERTFORD ; the Earls of MAYO, CA RN ARVON, WESTMORELAND, FALMOUTH, ELDON, DE LA WARR, LIMERICK, VERULAM, LONSDA LE, WILTON, ABERDEEN. JERSEY, MANSFIELD, CHESTERFIELD, KINNOUL, and BROW NLOW ; Viscounts STRANOFORD and STOR MOUNT ; Lords WHARTICLIFFE, LYNDHURST, MA RTBOROUOH, BERESFORD, COMEERMERE, FORRESTER, and BRUDENELL ; Sirs, ROBERT PEEL, CHARLES WETHERELL, H. HARDING!, ROGER GRESLY, and J. BECKETT ; Messrs. SA DLER, WATSON TAYLOR, HERRIES, W. PEEL, DAWSON, BARING, ARBUTHNOT, and TREVOR. This looks warlike and portentous, and the large assemblage of Peers proves that their Lordships will run all hazards to maintain their ac quired ascendancy. But hoWever firm they may be, they will find MILLIONS as firm as themselves, and that as the people know their rights, they will assert and maintain them. They are fortunate, too, in an alliance with patriotism in their SOVE REIGN ; and it will be at once hard and strange, if KING and people are beaten by a few wrong headed Peers. While this was passing in Park-lane, fourteen of the Cabinet held a three-hours sitting at the Foreign Office, when we may presume the Kiwo's Speech was finally prepared, and measures adapted to conduct the Parliamentary campaign with suc cess. In all respects yesterday, though Sunday, was a day of very active political agitation ; and the town never was fuller of anxious politicians of all parties, most of whom were in full activity. To-day " the conscript-fathers of the land" begin their labours, and all eyes are upon them. What are to be their measures is the universal question—while some qualify it by a wha t can, and others by a what will ? Will they throw off political economy—are we still to be the dupes •nd victims of equivoques and conundrums, worthy only of Thomas Aquinas or Dun Scotus s the age of absurdity only to change its subjects and phrases ? Are we, for a thousand years. to be cheated by sophistry, till logic is hated like law or physic? Are we to be told of surplus popula tion as an excuse for having put the people out of the means of subsistence ? Are we to be told of the delusive character of paper currency, while we have to pay the debts of a paper system ? Are we to be told that it would be a political sin to relieve a portion of the starving population, lest charity should be • bad example ? Are we to be told thatpuniaissasnt ought to precede redress of grievances, lest the people should be insolent, and make unreasonable demands? Are we to be told that the unbearable extortions of the truck-system are to continue, that em ployers may buy labour on terms which best suit themselves ? Are we to be told that the' Sturgess-Bourne system is to be maintained because liberality to the poor only encourages idleness ? Are we to be told that no system for regulating wages in branches of trade ought to be resorted to, because it would interfere with the free dom of Masters and work people to quarrel as often as they please ? Are we to be told, that for the sake of unrestrained trade, we ought to admit freely the manufac tures of Foreigners, while they admit none of oes! Age we to close the markets against our manufactures in corn-growing countries, because we calculate on some remote advantage by pro hibiting duties on corn ? Are we to con tinue to collect taxes from capital and in dustry, instead of the profits of trade, and the usufruct of land ? Are Exchequer bills and Government securities to be kept afloat in competition for employment of capital, against the securities of trade and private enterprise ? Is the Lim of Arrest to be continued, es a harvest to -4 416 of the law? Are the Bankrupt Laws to be opposed to the facilities of mutual arrangements between debtors and a majority of their creditors ? Are Close Corporations to be allowed to confer authority and influence on servility, in exclusion of independence and intelligence? Are taxes and fees on law proceedings to be continued, in ob struction of right and justice ? Is Britain, with its halo of assumed glory and unquestionable power, to look passively at the oppressions of nations by the Holy Alliance ? The answers to these questions in the progressive decisions of Parliament will decide the people in regard to their success in Abe late elections, in which they displayed public virtues which ought not to be baffled, and which we trust will have their reward. - ROYAL EXCHANGE, ONE O'CI.OOK.

The Magnet has arrived here to-day from Lisbon, being. ing letters up to the 12th. They do not contain any thing new of importance: the required satisfaction at that date, had not been given to the French. Don Miguel was in the city, deliberating with his Ministry relative to their claims, but had come to no successful conclusion. A force was fitting out in the Tagus, consisting clone line of battle ship, three frigates, three brigs, and two corvettes. It was supposed they were destined to act against Terceira. the French squadron were off the Rock of Lisbon ' and still active in making reprisals, having altogether taken nineteen Portuguese ships, which had been sent to France. CHOLERA MORRO& [We have received the following letter from a Physician, who bat long made the varieties of the atmosphere, his peculiar study •] TO THE EDITOR OF THE STAR. Star, June 10, 1831. During the present alarm about cholera morbus. a few remarks, founded on many years observation and experience, may not be either useless nor uninteresting to the public. conveyed through the medium of your widely-circulated and able paper. After having examined a great deal of evidence on both sides the question, I am induced to say, that cholera Nor bus is, like other popular or epidemic diseases, the product of a peculiar state of the atmosphere, and depends, for its varieties, on some hitherto undiscove red quality of the air in those districts where It prevails. In all cases of epide. mica, we most ermaider two circumstances as necessary to their production. 1. The mosbifie stimulant, which I believe to ruble be the air, and, Idly, the predisponent causes whisk lie hid, in the particular constitutions of the individual Slams. If we did not take this proposed cause into consideration, it would be difficulty to account for the fact that same wholly escape ha attacks; others suffer but little, send a taw are carried off by a seven and irremediable visitation of the complaint. These peallembig causes are weelliess, and keWhi■epd Medfield,* system, and some oat poodles drairosso at amstitatioe, which have as yet bawl the ramanie dphydsime. 'no previous, either akiessleme or momplemt,blhile at the pedant, contribute, no daubs, to Nth* or wgparatedie a/Ift of the disorder t and et a time when he elelentles is mmethendell hem itsbeing pee. Yakut in the usliklemdisak 1 amid rimmemed the mesh frequent simple demo ot sprig and etemashie meadow, Vale diet, rvPhr Men, ding and the purer air of the sasesleg, s cath e lllprellif in me the only preparative awes of modest drat could bo on all pretended spoils medisines, appear to me be tale dis order to be of nab avail, Wave she actual attack of the disorder. It is a fact, which I hese ascertained, that many awn the /i2l i ititp to be o be infecte ate olio d s contagion l e s, °r, in ' eot her words, le is increased by pro tt tty to or cordon with an infected person. And this fact will explain the contradictory evi dence produced by those who do, and those who do not maintain the doctrine of contagion. In fact. both are to a certain degree right ; because both causes, namely, epidemia and contagio, are In joint eperstlca at once. This is as agreeable to reason and seed phlhophy, as it is to positive experience; for the very acme infection of the atmosphere, which primarily excites the disease, would appear capable of being increased in power by the pestiferous effluvia arising from any to number of homed persons. Ina which I published some years ago, " Cht the Atanspherisil 12/rigin of ilpietentiee, . 1 clearly established this fact, as applicable to pestilential disorders in general ; and I repeat it now, in order that the indubitable proofs which we have obtained, of the atmospherical origin of such diseases, should not induce us to forego any of those ex aliens measures of precaution, which prudence has hitherto suggested to the medical councils of Europe. In further• ince atheist views, 1 have to offer the following observations founded on experience and reflection s 1. Persons who live high should take aperient medicines periodically ; and those whose bowels arc costive, or who are liable to disorders of the digestive organs. sh ould take care to rectify the same by some gentle alterative, when any epidemic is abroad. The best medicines for this purpose are, pius composed of a grain of calomel. three :twine of the extract of aloes, and one eighth part of a grain of Safaris:eel antimony ; taken twice or thrice a week; with light diet, and cooling. Indeed those who are heal th y, would feel great benefit from such an alterative course, par ticularly in summer. 2. The periodical fasts and abidance', which originated with our ancestors, and are founded on the wisest physiolo gical maxims, have • great tendency to keep the body in health; and it must be owing to this cause, that Catholic countries are less violently scourged by many pestilential epidemics than countries in which perpetual repletion has exhausted the vital energies of the rich and luxurious inha bitants: while perpetual poverty and want has enfeebled the constitutions of the poor. The salutary interchanges of fasting ani feasting are a powerful preservation against die. ease, front their alterative characters, and their breaking in upon the morbid tendencies of the constitution. 3. ventilation is a great preservative, and is terribly neglected in Europe, while in Asia it is always resorted to. All apartments should be ventilated at the top, anti the 3y-wheels, called ventilation, are a very useful invention ; in time of sickness in particular. 4. Smoking is highly useful ; and I have constantly no ticed, during the prevalence of fevers of any kind, partial. lady typhus, that those poor families are comparatieely free from disorder, whose cottages are always scented by the fumes of their smoking inmates. It has been, therefore. my constant practise to recommend to the pool labourer the salutary consolation of his pipe and tobacco ; but by no means to suffer it to beguile him into the baneful custom of excessive drinking. However, I am convinced that a little good wine now and then, indents brandy, is leis inj urious to the constitution, and does lees pernaltent mischief, than the lean excess in eating. There are swap old drunkards i but Mere are few aged ;Meow ! —sod a surplus of animal food is found, by examination of history std of facts, to predispose to epidemics, and to shown life itself, in a much greaterd than aceasioual inebriety t though both an cortainly e r 1 obeerved that the vegetable latesioa, as gentian, ban, and ethers, have a testeeative quail not Ws, se lee little htteetied to. bt these days of " wad tembsey sad thee the medicine aim*, pshisi sot le eve by eeent, le ash teejrzell4z i lmw, wigs the dens m ate it itoryeleles. ad yawn Indy, T. F. CALEDONIAN ASYLUM. On Friday evening the Anniversary Festival of . th is r t a . ritable laiWtutlon was held at the FfeelMetlelle Tavc-• , . Oust Queen-street, and in the absence of the Duke of $ • • - sex, who is the patron of the Society, Lurd James Stu et presided. The object of this institution, which is closely efiliesetist with the Highland Society, is to afford education end so• - Mance to the orphans of such Scotehmen as bass Illub .1 their country as soldiers or sailors, and the appearance of Cie children in the room fully evinced that great care was tak of their comfort and wel lbeing. The cause of the Society was ably advocated by the Ch man and other gentkmen in the course of the evening, and the subscriptions that were announced, though riot numerous. showed that the Institution had sonic staunch friends am.•ng the Scotch residents in London. The healthy and refreshing sight of the children appeared to afford general satisfaction to all present ; and the evening was spent in general hilarity, to which the professional ab h. ties of Messrs. Broadhurst, Chapman, Fitzwilihtin, and Jolly, not a little contributed. THE TURK BEN /IMAM. The Observer gives the followiog as an authorised state ment of this strange case : Sophia Chapman, a fair and well-looking young woman, about 20 years of age, was placed at the bar, said a tall, dat e. but well-dressed young man, apparently about 25 years of age, entered the witness box. The latter ow asked by Sir. Phillips, the clerk, his name, end what hit charge a it *phut the prisoner ? He replied, in bnken Rrt %iisl,,' Day acme, Sere, is Ben Hyam, and I was rub of half to- Kr. /dxnuorr—.What are you, Sir, and how did ,he rub ion ? Ben Hde am a Turk, Sare; and I do travel with goods in de country to sell; and l met de woman tie last ; I go home with her; I did show her de half-sove which I bad in • paper, and I put in my littel pocket where I put de watch. la the atoning when I got up, Igo to little pocket, and no paper and no half-sovereign ; but I led de paper in my breeches pock, t, and de money gone. After de policeman came, de prisoner and landlady of de Muse say they will give me lir. if I go away, as the girl aught to have lie ; but de policeman say, " No ; give hint nothing; it must go to justke." The prisoner, being asked what she had to say, saki site never saw the half-sovereign. Ben Hyam.—Oh yes you did, and you ask me to take Bs. and go. Mr. MARIUOT.—YOU must prosecute this woman fur die robbery. Beta Hyam...—Me no war.t to prosecute. Sue ; me shall lose my business in de country ; It was not de half-sovereign I did care for so much ; no, Sare, me no wish to prosecute, 'bough she did rob me very bad. Mr. Alauniker.—Oh, you don't wish to prosecute ? Then I shall compel you; for if you do not find sureties to prose. cute, 1 will send you to gaol with her. Ben Hyam--No, Sare, you send de thief, and not man who was robbed, to de prison. Pray, Sam, let me go; I do not care for de half-sovereign. Mr. MAIIItIOTT—You know your immoral conduct has been such that you will not be allowed your expenses un the trial. so you do not wish to prosecute. Ben Hyam--1 do not know what you say, Sare, about do immoral; but I wish to go to my business, if you pleas., Sare, in de country. Mr. 11Lannicre—Have you got bail to be answerable tor your appearaoce ? Ben liyam—Me have no friends except in de country. The policeman confirmed the Turk's Marmara, and the latter having signed bia deposition was locked up, and after wards was handcuffed and taken by the gaoler, with the fe male. to Kingston, the latter committed tot the fehlny, and the former for want of sureties to appear to give evidetot: against her at the next madam THB BOROUGH OF Si'. MICHAEL. The following family compact, in relation to this Cornish borough, has just been published by Mr. John Hawkins, sen. father of the ex-Member, in the course of a controversy which has taken place between him and Lord Falmouth. From the state ment of Mr. Hawkins, it appears that, at the law election, this compact was violated by Lord Fal mouth, who declared his intention of opposing the late Member at St. Michael's, on account of the speech made by that gentleman in favor of the Re form Bill, shortly before the dissolution of Parlia ment. We lay the document before our readers, as an interesting specimen of " the system which has so long worked well :" “ AGREEMENT.
