Her piety, benevolence, and kind nts, to the poor, and affectinn fur her friends, obi. lained her universal 1:A?e .ind respect.

Theis'ana fornital divisions are not consistent with the bwful feelings of respect with which we are all accustomed to view the bodies of our departed friends and rela tives: There is something retching 'in the idea of exposing the lifeless form to be maugled•by the sar geon's knife.

The Mail which arrived this day, brings a variety of intelligence from different quarters. The Students who occasioned some disturbance in the Theatre of Berlin, on the evening of the celebra tion of the Festival of the Reformation, 31st October, as stated in the STAR of the 11th instant, have been liberated, but the business still undergoes some in vestigation. It is somewhat remarkable, that on that occasion most of them wore red Cape. In some parts of Lapland, where corn was sown on the 31st of May, it was ready for reaping on the 28th of July—that is in 58 days ! Letter from Bayonne announce, that the Spanish Government has given permission to export 5f.10.000 tanegas of corn. upon payment of a duty of four reels per fanega. At Hamburgh the report is revived that a dimi nution of the Army of Occupation in France will take place. At least one of Me contingent:, will, it is there confidently believed, return to its own country ! It is reported that the house of ROTHICHILD is at gociating, under the mediation and guarantee of a great Power, a loan of thirty millions of florins, for Spain. One of the partners of that house has lately gone to Madrid for this purpose. At Berlin various changes are going on, but not of that kind which we would hail in England as'evi deuces- ef retrenchment : this, however, may be owing to our want of better information. On the face of them they seem to be acts for extending the influence 'of patronage, but perhaps they abolish more places than they create. The Paris Papers of Tuesday and Wednesday have arrived since our last. The sympathy expressed. in . evezy one of them, for the irreparable loss this conutty has sustained, in the death of its beloved Noce.% is. truly gratifying. Many of them have translatid at great 'length, the articles on this melancholy eventy in the London Papers, and one of them, the Joints! la iNhatr i has added a paragraph of its own, which, as'an accept. able tribute to the feelings of our Readers, we have given at length in a preceding column.

From the subjoined article from Madrid, our . Readers will see that the Spanish Government has at lasi got trews of its forlorn hope—General Mootito and that these news are perfectly confirmatory of all that we have already learned, through other channels, of his discomfiture and disgrace: “ MADRID.
