But I could not long remain here, and my steps we e soon turned towards the ...elven: of St. Bernard. 'She narrow and reeky Or, thruugh which lay the read, and rolled the impetuous Draw, was tnickiy hatred with lire and pines. Some, eedero l le e d by • and menacing a speed: fall, bent their !dark :end p ) :ausidic heads over the tashin4 wales of th.. river ; others rose in lalWerittl majesty amongst the reeks. seertsin7 to dispute the pre-essiltietwe in altitsmt.

At rt. Branrhicr I emerged from t'sas romantic pass, and eteced the valley of l'hiessra. There, changing in a moment, the scenery beanie as smiling as it had previously be•-n gloomy. The moon tilos retired on each side, threw oil the severe forms by wr:iels they were before characterised, because sprinkled with huts, meadows, and cern fields, a n d, g en t ly s l o p_ In, lost thiusselves in the plain thtteigh which the brans:• still punnet its users'. These striking con tracts, and sudden transitions from the terrific to the Lerely, are among - the most• lively enjoyments that await the Alpine traveller. At St. Branchier I staid to lireakfast. A lc 0:1 old winners, who resembled Bau: - ix, but without her Philemon, received use in her I•eueble ahode. She could only uffer a morsel of coarse briad aesi milk, but these she effered with a good ile:4 it, and they were her ail. At the villsge of Lis Ides.abont a league from St. Braachier, ti.e ;alley atain begins to contract, and reassumes its sonsbm ue. Hence to St. Pierre Hy country is rensaskable ter the deep glens, and rocky nay ems into At Lich the Braise throws itself.

By the time 1 rose to depart, the day was fast declining, thick clouds heel overspread the. atinesphere, the wind occa sionally rose in loud gusts, :t ' 'l every thing be tokened the probability of a -.norm, which in these mountainous nietrirts is indeed a terrible visitation. Hoping, howev..r, far the best, I without detly set out towards the convent, in the expeetarion of reaching it before the close of slay. The environs of St. Pierre are wild and austere, and sersibly mark the approach t.l the abode of eternal desolation At first the road skirted deep forests of pines, bet sows, rising beyond the region of trees, pe-sesi user }ferrets rocks and sandy plains, whilst di.ectly in front tewered the snow curvetted sumntit of Mont Velan, de-nettled from mor tal approach by its dase,eretti trier. A poor pea sant, Fusels, the same wild road as here joined .oe, an I our conversatian n^.titrally 'striae! tars the hoer. rs of the surronteliag scenery. 1t ith all the loquacity of bee class, she told me inau eerabie stories t " bloody ninritere," " dreadful accidents," and • hair-lire adth esciper,' whi h had occurred on the various rpots that we. were reeling, with so tem+ fume:: and energy,' that, apt doubting the authenticity of her narrative, t MK berm iwaimeipac some per sonal adventure ere I could reach the wished-for haven. A sentiment of Madam ab Steel's happening., h•sw over, to strike me. whilst li-tenim; to these wild taler, 2.y ai,prehensions were at once changed into a smite.

(To be iGistilated.) From a peculiar source of int:rine:ion, we are ena -I.led to state, that her Majesty I.ar expressed her in tention of ceertaimly arriving in London in the first week in May.— -(Kentish Gazette.) Saturday Prince Leopold left town for Claremont. The French parrs contain an article Gum Yrun, Iluteil the 211th ult. stating, on the authority of insect iers who had arrived from Panipetuna, that appreher.- sions w.•re entertained of a commotion in Navarre. It is said that the enthwsiasm of the Navarrois for Mina ha I diminished, and that they appeared inclined to oppose a projet of his fox wising a corps of 3,000 volunteers, and sending away the troops of the line. It is added, that on the 16th, to provide against in expected disturbance, all 'the patrols were doubled. The article goes oh to state, that at Saragossa and Tarragona, notbing'but anarchy prevailed, in et'lnie 'locum of its sot being 'knows what anthority was tut be obeyed. tr. tit Y OUT:M4,7 OLDII.IX. tr:t tr TAR Onittl VIA Or SATUUDAV.I • 'I ke town of Oldham has, during the pretwast a -ilk, been th , own be', 4 :fart: of alarm and ronfu-i ex-; ceening any Cming ever remembered by the oldest in- 1 issiiitant. him Monday, the day appn'ated for the eeleheation of th.: King's iOnhday, the first synsptows olf ::.•ri.feetst.: themselves, I.y the violent cuts sta..! wt a party of sol.iiers, at the.

For some time pa.st, there ha• been a military petiole: after dusk through the streets of Oldham. It has often been complained of, and objected to, but the " authori ties" deem it necessary ; therefore, how , vie 'disliked by the inhabitants, it is confirmed, and perhaps for that very reason alone.. At eight o'clock, according to custom, this patrols. was sent forth. 'these " guar dian. of socia: order" immediately began to break the windows and insult the people, who were assembled in groups about the town. It is impossible to conjec ture what atrocities would have crowned the night, had the outrage re-commenced, as the inhabitants were now prepared to resent and punish any aggres /cisme on their person.. The commanding Officer, who bad been reveling at Manchester, arrived, very fortunately for all parties, in time to prevent any fresh disturbance. We never witnessed such agi tation as was produced by this shocking instance of the. feraeity cf a drunken and unlicensed soldiery. b This scene of horror has sunk deeply into the inha bitants of Oldham.
