THE CASE near HENLEY-ON-THAMES TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SIR,—An article having gone the round of the public Journals, in which my name is so mentioned as to compro. mist the honour of a gentleman, I must request that you will insert this letter in your next publication, for the pur pose of denying that I had any part in the transactions be tween Mr. Allen, of Oxford, and the Baron De Behr, further than this—that if there is any one duped it is my self, having a short time previous purchased from Do Behr a considerable number of Shares at 501. each, for which I have the receipts; and in possessing them, I must say, I con fees myself much to blame for having invested so much pro perty in a concern which I neither knew nor even now know anything about, but from the representations of De Behr, whose word I had not the slightest reason to doubt. Hovvever, to the point. I ask you, Sir, is it at all reason able for any party to commence an indictment for conspiracy against me—to bring forward my no-me so very disgrace fully before the public—and to cause me to suffer so'many other annoyances, merely because one party meets another at my lonise, and there makes a contract without my know ledge, as will appear from the sequel ? I say, No. The fact of the matter is simply this :—I was indebted to Mr. Allen in a considerable sum of money, advanced by him during the time I had a Chancery suit pending, by which I eventually received a large sum. The Baron De Behr happened to be on a short visit at my house at Bell hatch, and on my saying one morning, at breakfast (but not to hint), that I must drive down to Oxford, and make an appointment with Mr. Allen to come and receive his money, De Behr said, " Take the carriage, and I will pay for the horses." This was agreed to ; and after having seen Mr. Allen and his superior clerk, in Mr. Wickens's office, they after dinner came to us at the Star Hotel ; when the Baron, finding that Mr. Wright had not the best feeling towards his employer (Mr. Wickens), and that he spoke the Spanish and other Continental languages well, he had as ides of giving him a birth at the Cachoeira Mines in the Brazils That led to much more conversation between De Behr and Wright, who seemed much pleased with his chance of the appointment. While this was going on I was in conversa tion with Mr. Allen, and fixed the day for his coming to my house for the purpose of receiving his money. Allen and Wright (his fellow-clerk in Wickens's office at Oxford) accordingly came on the Saturday, and during the time we were at dinner we were joined by Mr.Wickens, of Sackville-street (Mr. Allen's lawyer and master), who said that hearinc , I was about to settle with Mr. Allen, he had come down from town to protect my interests, having before acted as professional man for both parties. Previous, however, to dinner, I was speaking with my gardener on the lawn, when Mr. Allen came to me, and asked if I thought those mining shares that De Behr and Wright were speaking of were a good thing, when I replied, " I hope so, for I have bought a great many, and purposed giving some to my children." With this Mr. Allen went back ; and on the bell ringing I went in to dinner, when, for the first time, I heard that Mr. Allen had made any bargain with De Behr. Sunday being the next day, Dc Behr and Allen settled on Monday morning, in the pre sence of Irri d hl, and all the deeds were afterwards can celled by Wickens upon Allen's authority, except an old warrant Qf attorney, which he promised to (j ive up on his return to town; however, he did not do so, but has now entered an action on that document against me. But to re turn to the settlement. Arr. Allen then gave to Dc Behr a receipt in full of all demands, made out to Ine. This re ceipt and all the Papers given up were retained by De Behr at my wish, until about nine days since, when they were given up to my Solicitor. Allen had agreed to take 2,5001. worth of Shares, and as that was more than I owed him, he desired me to pay the whole sum to De Behr, and he would remit the difference to me the next week, which he did not, nor have I ever asked for the money. I merely mention these facts to show that an ex parte statement will not always do. Neither is any Gentleman's character to be left entirely to the judgment, will, or caprice of those who only look to one side of a question, and conse quently take that for fact. In conclusion, I must beg of the public to suspend their judgment until the matter shall appear before them in its proper shape, and not in the garbled and partial state in which it has already appeared. I will not add more than most positively, firmly, and manfully deny any participation in this matter, or any attempt at fraud or dishonourable conduct in any aftir. I must, however, take this occasion of cautioning the unwary by advising them, in all money transactions, or balancing of accounts, that they will find it best in the long run that the actual cash should pass be tween principal and principal ; there will then be no in ducement for other parties to forswear themselves, either at ,heir own discretion, or on the advice of their lawyers. I am, Sir, your obedient servant, VINCENT VAUGHAN. SPAIN. IMPORTANT FROM SPAIN DEFEAT OF GEN. BUERENS BY THE CARLISTS. (From the Correspondent of the Chronicle ) CARINENA (ARRAGON), AUG. 25, 10 P.M.—By yester day's post I sent you two letters, the latter containing in postscript, a confirmation of what I had previously state. as to the positions of the Carlists and of Gen. Bucrens' d - vision, viz., that the Curlist army was at Herrera about hours march from this on the road to Belchite, and at Vii lar de los Navarros, a place. nearly opposite to it on the road to Hijar, the Pretender. Also that General Buerens had marched on the evening before (the 23d) from Bel. chite, halting for the night at Azarr, on the road to Her rera, which is situated on that from Belchite to Damen. From the different circumstances mentioned in the latest dated letter, it appearel to me as being not unlikely that the Carlist army, being so much stronger than Buerens' divi sion, might probably be waitins to see if the General would attack. Up to half-past nine last night no tidings of the division of General Buerens, or of the Carlists, had reached Can't. nena. Shortly after that hour the town-crier gave notice to all the inhabitants to illuminate their houses, as troops were about to enter. This is usual ; and I thought that General Buerens having advanced upon the factious, they had, as usual, retired, and that the division was about to re-enter Carinena. But soon the bells of the fortified Church began to sound a kind of tocsin, and two lights were displayed on the tower ; so that it appeared there was something passing out of the usual course of things. I had left the Governor's house only half an hour previous, and on my way thither again, in order to ascertain what was going for►vard, I found the cavalry and some infantry of General Buerens' division entering one by one, jaded and dejected. Upon inquiry I found that the division had had a hot and bloody action with the whole of the Carlist army, double their number. t appears that General Buerens, having learned that the factious, with the Pretender, were in Herrera and Viliar de los Navarros, and conceiving that their object was to pass to the Pinares (or the Pine-woods) of Soria, in order unite with the expeditions lately arrived there from the northern provinces, marched early yesterday morning from Azuara with his division, with a view, if possible, of pre- _ . preventing a junction which might prove extremely advan tageous to the enemy. The day was excessively hot, and the troops could not obtain a drop of water on their march, or during the action. At about one r.m. the advanced posts of the two armies came within sight of each other, near Herrera, from which place the Carlists retired after exchanging a few shots, and went to Villar de los Navarros, where the Pretender was. The whole faction was assembled in that vicinity. Their rorce, from all accounts, consisted of P.,000 infantry, 1,200 cavalry, a piece of the largest class of mountain artil lery, say between 12 and 13,000 men. They were advan tageously posted, partly on a plain, where cavalry could act. and on broken and hilly ground, close by, extremely well calculated for infantry manoeuvres. The Pretender's troops, too, were fresh from their quarters, where they had been well nourished by the rations forced from Cie inhabitants. General Buerens had barely 6,000 men, including 450 cavalry only, and four pieces of small mountain artillery ; and his men were fatigued by a long and painful march. Tae Carlists were not only more than double the strength of General Buerens' division, but their great numerical su periority in point of cavalry was infinitely in their favour, looking at the field on which the action was fought. The General cautiously reconnoitered the ground and the enemy's force, which, notwithstanding the disadvantages above described, he resolved on attacking, feeling as he did that it was of the utmost importance to prevent the junc tion of the Pretender, accompanied by this large. force, with the other Carlist troops in Soria. Accordingly he made his dispositions, which, from all I can learn, were most judicious. General Buerens did not intend that the attack 'should commence until he should have posted his divisions on the spots he considered to be most advantageous ; but a small body of Cacadores, or light troops, who were in advance, opened a fire before the time appointed ; a message was sent to the officer commanding them to desist, especially from firing on the Carlist troops stationed amongst some trees, and who were evidently endeavouring to draw them en ; but the cavalry officer who conveyed the order had not got back to the General before the Cacadores—more brave than prudent—recommenced a very sharp fire, the conse quence of which was, that the Carlist cavalry fell upon them, and threw them into confusion. The comparatively small number of the Queen's cavalry made several brilliant charges ; but, as was almost inevitable, they were repulsed by the superior number of the enemy, with loss. From this first mistake must be dated the unfortunate result which lam extremely sorry to say occurred. All the persons with whom I have spoken agree in declaring that the infantry, generally speaking, behaved remarkably well, especially the small battalion of the Royal Guard (the second regiment), those of Cordoba and Almatlza. The Guard particularly distinguished itself. These and the other infantry regiments sustained and repulsed several hold charges of the Carlist cavalry ; and they several times attacked with great vigour heavy masses of the Cellists, who, in turn, trusting to their numerical superiority, rushed upon the Christinos and destroyed great numbers of them. The provincial rtiment of Avila, which joined General Bueren's division here only a fe..v days ago, was disper se d early in the action, and has not since rejoined, 1 believ e . At last the exhausted and fatigued troops of the Queen gave way, after five hours' hard fighting (the action corn tbeaced at two r.M.), under every disadvantage. Night was coming on, and notwithstanding every effort on the part of General Buerens, his staff, and other superior officers, indeed of officers of all ranks as far as I can learn, the retreat, or rather flight, became general. It is but justice, however, to record that the 2d battalion of the Royal eiruard, already spoken of, covered the retreat in a masterly manner, keeping their formation (although a very weak battalion—not 500 men), and checking the Carina cavalry, who were bent on harassing their former opponents. General Buerens did not arrive here until two this morn ing. He remained near Herrera, endeavouring to form the man and check the dispersion, but this was impossible. The General received a slight contusion in the chest -from a spent ball ; and, with one of his aides-de-camp (his son-in. law, a very fine youth), was nearly taken prisoner, when endeavouring to rally the men. It is impossible to speak with ashy degree of certainty as o the loss. Until the division shall be got together no ra _.

SEA SICKNESS.—Who has not suffered from sea sickness ? that remorseless fiend, who, sparing neither age nor sex, intelligence nor respectability, makes a point of setting at defiance all the decorums of etiquette, all the grace of attitude, all the cUins of humanity. I have seen dignified statesmen, lovely women, poets of the most ro mantic, and divines of the most spiritual cast of counte nance, all huddled together at a ship's side with confusion truly humiliating ; yellow as daffodils, and moaning as dis mally as a north wind whistling through the key-hole of a back attic. Sea sickness! The very word is an emetic, and I heave while I write it.—Black wood's .Magazine. Among the distinguished personages lately arrived at Baden we observe the names of the Marquis of Sligo, from Ireland ; M. J. Zea Bermudez, the late Spanish Mi nister ; M. de Ribcaupierre, from Berlin ; Generals Phipps and Egerton, of the British service ; Miss Von Hegn, the Ellen Tree of the German stage ; Professor Gans, from Berlin ; Lord and Lady Lyndhurst, &c. The cashier of MM. Mallet, Br.thers, and Co., the Paris bankers, has just destroyed himself at Paris, having defrauded them of a sum of 250,000 francs. The Medical Gazette states that Mr. Bacot and Mr. Ridout, two members of the Court of Examiners at Apothecaries' Hall, have been compelled by the Court of Assistants to resign, in consequence of having accepted appointments at the London University College, which are considered to be incompatible with their duties as exa tional conjecture can be formed. I believe it is much exaggerated, though many gallant officers and men have perished. The loss of the Carlists must also be great. No doubt great numbers of the Queen's troops retiredqo Da roca, and the places in that direction. A good deal of baggage has, I fear, fallen into the enemy's hands. The Carlists did not pursue the Christinos beyond Herrera ; this is by some attributed to the former having been occupied in getting possession of the booty. General Buerens is universally praised for his gallant belrav4ur. At the beginning of the action the promise of success was in favour of the Queen's troops ; but the pre mature though brave firing of the Cacadores gave the enemy an opportunity of acting before the General's plan of battle could be put in execution ; therefore the division had every disadvantage to encounter—double numbers, fresh troops against exhausted ones, good positions, and frustra tion of the General's plan to meet and conquer these dis advantages—a frustration occasioned by over-eagerness on the part of the light troops to fight. The men continue to enter this town. I hope to-mor row we shall find that considerable numbers have gone into the neighbouring towns and villages. Let not the friends of the Liberal cause in Spain be dis couraged by this event, of which the Carlists and their friends the Tories will, of course, make the most. The at tempt to check the progress to Soria was highly creditable and honourable to General Buerens. His conduct in the field war. equally so—that of his troops brave and enduring every disadvantage. Oraa, Nogueras, Iriarte, and though last, not least, Buerens, with the troops under their re spective commands, are within a short distance of each other ; and I think it very likely that in a few days I shall have the happiness of telling you that the Carlists have had a very short lived triumph. The General's staff behaved admirably. Being short of Aides-de-Camps (two accompanied Espartero to Castile) several regimental officers were by his order attached to him yesterday in those capacities. They all conducted them selves gallantly. Some have fallen ; but all his regular staff are safe, though constantly exposed to the hottest fire in every part of the field. I conclude in great haste, being anxious to send this off immediately,, by express to Saragossa, in order that it may reach you rapidly. miners. A letter of the 21st ult., from Berlin, says—" The reviews will shortly commence. Nearly the whole of the third division of the army has assembled. The camp at Tallow will contain 20,000 men, and the Kings of Hanover and Wurtemburg are expected to be present. An addi tional number of superior officers have been placed on the retired list. On Saturday a severe storm of thunder and light ning visited llereford. At Bromyard and neighbourhood the storm was very severe , accompanied with tremendous rain ; the electric fluid shattered several trees near Brock hampton, Linton, and other places.

It was impossible that be could offer anything to the royal ear in extenuation of the crime, and, therefore, he was the more earnest in expressing his hope that his Majesty would save him and his family from the infamy the execution of the sentence would bring upon them. " So, Mr. Justice," said the King, " what you propose to me is, that I should transfer the infamy from you and your family to me and my family ; but I shall do no such thing." —Motion refused.

BAYONNE, Auu. 29.—1 n my last letter I gave, as far as was possible, from the meagre information transmitted to the Spanish authorities here, an outline of the late in surrectionary proceedings at Vittoria and Mirandel del Ebro, and I have now, I regret to say, to continue .the narrative, by detailin g the events of Saturday last (the 26th inst.) at Patnplona. I should mention that the number of persons massacred at Vittoria and Miranda dal Ebro, was 23, among them being, as I have already stated, General Escalera, the Governor of Vittoria ; the chief of his staff, a member of the provincial junta, and the editor of the Bulletin d' Alava Newspaper. The Governor flew for a refuge to the house of the man (Martin Zurbana) who was peore o v 3 t, tl ) p bottom of the plot, and while asking pro taetinn was basely roir(lOrPl4 by big serv4Ptg• 4t Mirand4 dal Ebro it was the National Guard who principally acted, but at Vittoria it was the military —two companies of the Altnanza Regiment being the first to revolt, and taking upon thamselvos the principal part of the horrors that en- THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 1837. tied. The alleged cause of the insurrection was the want tf pay, but I ant inclined to think it sprung from more :angerous sources. The mutineers at Vittoria chose a pro v;sionll junta, by whom a man named Ech.duce has been avointod Governor. At Miranda the old authorities, ,tving given in their adhesion to the views of the rioters, -ere—Under strict surveillance—allowed to continue in office. At Pamplona the revolt has been much more serious in its consequences, as well as in the sphit manifested by the soldiery. Of it General Saartfield at d Colonel Mendevil lave been the principal victims, the nvnabar of which, how ,ever, amounted to 18. The following particulars may be .elied upon. They are derived from zn eve-witness whom 1 chanced to know, and whose letter, addressed to one of the principal authorities of this place, I have seen. It is dated— " Pamplona, August 26, Five Evening. " This morning, between nine and ten o'clock, the Ist and '2d battalions of the Tirallicurs of Isabella IL, and a Squadron of horse, forming in all seven or eight hundred nen, quitted their cantonments at Zizu Mayor and Zizu Menor, under the orders of the Colonel Don Leon Iriarte, anti in the greatest order advanced up to one of the gates of this town. Reaching it, they in a moment seized upon and disarmed the guard ; and after secur ing one after another the several posts, took military possession of the town --the principal body of the troops marching into the Plaza, in which is situated the Town-hall. Here the authorities immediately assembled ; ,ml, as a first step, summoned before them, to account for the position in which the town was placed, Leon Iriarte, the superior officers of the Tirailleurs, and also those late in command of the garrison. In reply to their questions, Iriarte, and the two officers in command of the revolted battalions, answered, This morning the subalterns of the battalions, after the inspection, announced to us all that we were to consider ourselves under arrest, but that they were Killing to restore to us the command on condition that we would march them into Pamplona, to be paid their arrears of pay and allo.vances. In this state of things, and with a view of avoidint , greater disorders, we resumed the com mand, and conducted the battalions to Pamplona. If you desire further explanations you must address yourselves to the subalterns, who no doubt will give theta to you as de tailed as possible.' " Upon this the authorities directed to be called before them a deputation from the subalterns. They, however, refused sending a deputation, and presented themselves at the Town-hall in a body, assuming an air of the most inconceivable arrogance. Questioned, they replied unani mously, that the movement was occasioned by the state oh distress in which they and their brother soldiers were placed by the want of pay, but that if of the three months' arrears then due to them one only was paid, they would preserv e order in the town. To this proposal the autho rities, after a short consultation, consented, and the sub- alterns.were ordered to present themselves in an hour to receive the amount claimed. To this they agreed and retired. After consulting, however, fo: a few minutes with their comrades, and also a few of the inhabitants of the town, who easily declared themselves favourable to the revolt, they returned to the Town-hall, and told the authorities Out they had no confidence in their pro mises, and that they were determined to appoint other olicers in their place. With this view, divesting each functionary of all his badges of cffice, they provisionally tdsc•d the town under the charge of Lapirgna, the Colonel of artillery. " During these consultations chosen patrols of the Ti railleurs proceeded to the houses of the principal inhabit ants of the town, and arrested their inmates. Among these vras General Saarsfield. At the intercession, how ever, of the new Governor, Lapirgna, and on his promise that the pay required by the subalterns should be in stantly forthcoming, they were (unfortunately, as the event !roved) let at liberty. This step, it would seem, gave offence to some of the soldiers, most of whom had their blood heated from drink, and following eighteen of then► to their houses, they brutally massacred them, mostly on their own thresholds. General Saarsfield and Colonel Men- evil were among the number. The former they seized ast as hq was entering his house, and shot bim in the street. dendevil wa , , killed in his bedroom. " This horrid serne would appear to have given the council of subalterns confidence, for on learning it they again, a third time, proceeded to the Town-hall, and in formed the new authorities that they would not be content with the conditions already stipulated, and that they had appointed 3 Comrpi.tee to consider the basis of a new Go vernment. Upon this the disorder became general, and the authorities, frightened out of their senses, lied to their homes, and left the town to the mercy of the revolted. In this position it now is." I am sure you will at once agree with me in thinking that there is more in this revolt than It mere demand for pay. My own impression is that it is at least a part of the Este tatist machinations organized by Espartero and his traitor zing, and that we have not yet done with these scenes. One thing is positive—there is nothing of Carlism in all that has taken place. The murder of S tarsficld at Pamplona is strongly against the supposition that Carlism had to do uith the insurrection. Saarstield has lately been more than well thought of by the factious chiefs, and assuredly would not be the choice victim of a Carlist insurrection. No, no ! It is on Espartero and the heads of his party must lie the heavy weight of these di-asters. Their maxim i.. that to bring about the regeneration of Spain blood must be spilled. They have commenced the horrid trial, but let them have a care how they sot the example of blood- It may prove contagious in quarters they least desire it, and their own may flow in expiation of that they have shed. Letters from Bilboa state that Castor with three batta lions.has gained possession, and is fortifying the valley of C4ranzi. Castnneda, the Military Commandant of Bilboa, proposes, however, to dislodge them. The Christino column hitherto occupying the Ribera, composed of two battalions of the Saragossa Regiment, two battalions of Castile, and about 150 horse, has taken the direction of Vittoria, through Logrono, in consequence of the troubles which have jusi broken out there. It is said by the Carlists that their General, Uranga, me ditates besieging Penacerrada ; but he would require five times his present force to succeed. The idea is ridiculous. Ste O'CLocK.—Just as I was closing this letter intelli. gence reached us of the garrisons of Irun and Fontarabia Being in a state of revolt. The soldiers drove from those towns all the officers who in rain sought to pass into France, acting under orders received from the French Government two days back by telegraph, that in the event of any revo lutionary movement occurring in the vicinity of the frontier, all communication should be cut off. The bridge of Beho bia, and all the territory adjoining is declared closed, and troops are being sent down to line the French territory. Especially all communication between the troops of the two countries is interdicted. Some firing was beard at Irun, but the result was not known. PORTUGUESE INSURRECTION. The following is the latest official intelligence received by he last Lisbon mail. It was published on the morning of he 21st ult. : TELEGRAPHIC BULLETIN FROM THE CASTLE. " AUG. ]9.—Saldanha and the whole of his rebel force left Callas at one o'clock in the morning. The direction of their march is not known, but it is reported to be towards Lisbon. The enemy's force consists exactly of 300 horse and 320 infantry. They continue to seize upon all the horses and mules they fall in with. Yesterday evening 40 cavalry marched, as was said, for Obidos. A. good rein forcement of cavalry has just arrived from Abrantes. Every thing here is in the best order, and the greatest enthusiasm prevails. This point is secure, and tranquillity reigns throughout all the district. "TItANCISCO TELLES DE SAMPAYO. " TELEGRAPHIC BULLETIN FROM THE CASTLE. " Auc. 20, Foua P.M.—The rebels left Caldas on Fri day morning, and marched on Peniche, whence they were repulsed by the garrison. They retired to the Serra d'El Itey, where they passed the night between Friday and Saturday. It is to-day ascertained that they have marched on Torres Vedras." (Signed as above.) CAMP AT COMPIEGNE. COMPIEGN E , AUG. 30.—The two camps embrace at this moment upwards of 2,000 tents, being each 1,500 metres, or about an English mile in extent. Commodiousness, neat ness, order, arc their distinguishing eharacteri , tics. Every thing is in its pl ace , an d th ere i s a p l ace f o r everything— that is to say, f or everyt hi ng requ i s it e . N o women are per mitted to enter the camp with the exception of the canti zzie each of whom has her husband in the regiment to which she is attached ; and no female, unless of approved morality, is• permitted to fill this situation. The dress of these women to an English eye presents a spectacle which is not a little amusing. They weir sky•blue capotes, with rows of military buttons, short skirts, and trousers of red cloth ; and their heads are adorned with round hats co vered with oi!skin, and tricked out with white riband. As the Colonels have usually the cood taste to make choice of pretty girls for their cantinieres, their bizarre cos tume gives them a coquettish, and pleasant enough aspect. Etch cavalry regiment, as it entered the town, pre seated to the admiring eyes of its inhabitants the outlandish 'spectacle of its ca , itLirre•Si Muunted on horseback at the • pxtremay of th e reg i men t, w i t h legs crossed en cavalier, feet firmly pl ante d i n t h e st i rrups, and posture as erect as i f these pret ty_ioaki„g Amazons had passed their entire lives in the ridi ng - sc h oo l. Wi t hi n a s h ort di stance o f ettlir car`; there are pensions, where the officers are suppliod with their board under wooden houses by cantiniel es especially re tained for that service. The perfect smoothness and regularity of th!. ground upon which the camps extend is not a little astu.l,lling, when it is considered that only a few days since every inc.!, of ground occupied by them was covered with a harvest into which a single sickle had not then entered. Within eight days more than 2,000 tents have bzen raised, as if by enchantment ; and not a stone is to be met upon the green sward, which is occupied by upwards of 20,000 men. The ground upon which the tents are pitched, and also that upon which the manwuvres take place, is all, I under- stand, the property of the Crown. It is p 'railed out in small lots to the different inhabitants of the town and neigh bourhood, who grow vines, hemp, corn, and flax, on their respective portions, as it pleases their fancy, without the formality of dividing their respective tenures by hedges or ditches. There is consequently no work to be performed by the pioneers in the way of removing obstructions. The various holdings arc bounded by small fosses, which are easily filled up, and commissioners subsequently measure and re-allot the ground, and estimate whatever Injury the tenants receive in consequence of the military movements, according to which estimate they are reimbursed from the Royal Treasury. Thus all parties are satisfied. SWITZERLAND. LUCERNI, AUG. 30.—The Helvetic Diet resolved itself yesterday into a Secret Committee to consider of the com mercial relations of Switzerland with those of the states of Southern Germany that have adhered to the Prussian cus toms system. It appeared from the report of the Com mittee appointed to examine that subject, that none of the negotiations entered into for the last year had been attended with satisfactory results for the Confederation, and that although the German states bordering on Switzerland are disposed to grant certain facilities to Swiss trade, yet the duties, after this reduction would be still so high, that they would amount to a prohibition for certain articles of Swiss produce. The Committee was of opinion that it was not the inte rest of Switzerland to conclude a definitive treaty or to ac cede to the terms required by Wurtemburg, in the different notes which that Government had exchanged with the Vorort. It then proposed-Ist, That the latter should be called upon to return to the Wurtemburg Government a reply to that effect; 2d, That the Vorort should again be empowered to re-open negotiations n ith the Southern states of the German Union, for the purpose of entering into some commercial arrangements with them ; 3d, That in case of failure, the Vorort should immediately appoint a Committee to draw up a memorial on the subject, and recommend to etch of the cantons the adoption of suitable measures, in order that, under those circumstances, Swiss trade should be sufficiently and amply protected. Eighteen and a half States agreed to the two first pro positions, and fourteen and a half to the third. St. Gall, Argau, and 13 isle Country were of opinion that all further negociations should be broken off, and reprisals resorted so. Their proposition, however, was not admitted, because of its being contrary to the principles of free trade. A Zurich Journal publishes the annexed statement of le fortune left by M.

The Milan Government bad set at liberty young Zenon Bernasconi, who was lately arrested on the Swiss territory in violation of the right of nations, and handed over to the Courts the two individuals guilty of that act of piracy. A number of Catholic Clergymen of the Canton of St. Gall had asked the Pope to suppress the fast on Saturdays, but his Holiness declined granting them that dispensation, although it has heen for many years enjoyed by the Ca tholics of Austria and Ireland. --Titres. ITALY. ROME, AUG. 9.2.—The cholera has now spread to every part of the city, and all classes of the population supply it with victims. Tranquillity however prevails ; there is no more suspicion of poison. The theatres and other public amusements are not prohibited, and m•my persons having overcome their first fears, they are very well attended. . . . . The new loan has been concluded with the house of Tor- lonia on the same advantageous terms as the last ; and the Government has thereby three millions of scudi at com mand, the whole or only part of which it may have in in stalments. The news of the entrance of the Austrians into the provinces was spread by speculators, and has been speedily proved to be f.►lse. FRONTIERS OF ITALY, AUG. 23.—Several Spaniards of • distinction, known as partisans of Don Carlos, have lately passed this frontier, on their way to Vienna. It is said that they have diplomatic missions to Vienna, Berlin, St. Petersburg'', &c., which there is the less reason to doubt, as Messrs. Monasterio, Villa Franca, and others, who are Already known as Carlist azeuts, aro said - to be of the number. NAPLES, AtTG. 17.—The artillery just announces the arrival of the Quern's bro!hcr, the eldest son of the Arch duke Charles, nu hoard an Austrian frigate, who, on land. i g. immediately went to Casteila-Mare, where their Ma jesties reside on account of the heats. Our journal now contains an article in 10 columns, relative to the revol.iig and tragical events in Sicily and the Albruzzi, an.l at the same time adds the agreeable intelligence that all is now tranquil. 'II ,re seems to have been no politival object but a riot of the mob against legal order, or else en esullition of private enmity, which, free from, all restraints, manifested itself openly in the most de testable and cruel manner, every one hoping more or less to promote his own interests. The Gvertiment, however, proceeds with all the rigour of martial law, and they j•lstly meet with their due punishment. The number of deaths by cholera is, on the whole, decreasing ; from the 13th to the 14th there were 10.; 14th to 15th, 4 ; 13th to 16th 9 deaths. NAPLES, AUGUST 1 5.—Letters from Messina arrived yesterday, which state that the troops under Lieut.-Gen. del Caretto have entered Catanea. The people did not, indeed, give them a good reception, for the first that ap peared had their arms taken from them, which, however, were soon delivered up, so that no further affray took place. The sanatory state of Messina is still very good. But though the disorder does not appear in the city itself, the communication with Naples and Calabria is not re-estab lished, by which the trade both of Messina and Calabria suffers great injury, and, as has happened in all Italy, the public distress will be carried to the utmost, till the dreaded visitation at length enters by invisible and unguarded ways, and surprises the poor people in the midst of the greatest misery and privations, as his Holiness at Rome may now see from his sacred chair, for it is now officially known that the evil so long feared has reached the ancient mistress of the world, in spite of the double and triple sanatory cordons. It is to be hoped that travellers will no longer be hin dered from going to Rome, though much will not be gained by this, because if they travel further than Rome they must halt on the frontiers of TuscAny, and perform some weeks' quarantine. We have stilt ten or twelve deaths daily, and five or six new cases, which are chiefly of children from six or eight years old, and generally prove fatal in a short time : few grown-up persons are now at tacked. It is calculated that since the commencement of this disorder—that is, since October, IS3 6 —the number of victims to this disorder has been 34,000. Great as this number is, the loss is not perceived in the streets of our populous city, which, as well as the public walks, have for for some time past been as full of activity as formerly. The festival of the annunciation was celebrated to-day in all the early churches with particular solemnity, and the people are generally persuaded that the cholera will cease from this day, which is very desirable, but not very probable. For some days past we have had a truly Neapolitan heat, the thermometer being constantly between 20 and .28 degrees Reaumur (90 and 93 Fahrenheit). The vineyards promise an abundant crop an.l low prices of wine. ROME, AUG. 19.-0 a the day before yesterday till the evening there were numerous cases of cholera, and it is said that there were 200, and that the halt proved fatal. Yes terday and to-day there have bean few cases, so that people take courage, and are inclined to believe that the disorder will soon leave us again. Travellers who were going to Naples have returned to-day from Guizano, as no person coming from Rome is suffered to pass through that town or through Velletri. Report speaks or the entrance of Austrian reinforcements into the provinces. We cannot say whether there is any foundation for these reports or not.—All j emeine Zeitang, Aug. 29.

BEIaIN, AUG. 22.—We learn &OM 'Warsaw that did typhus, which sumo Polish phyolelans took for the plaguP, his spread, and it istlitlrerbre doubtful whether the E. trot Yeho:as will visit the Polish capital ; later accounts e informed us that he will not. It is hoped that the south of Russia, to which the Emperor is going, will be found more healthy than Poland, and than some of the coasts of the Black Sea. In Circassia especially the sum mer season is said to have a fatal effect on the health and lives of the Russian troops, for whom the climate of the Circassian: is said to be as severe an ordeal as that of Sierra Leone for the English. This may partly account for the success with which. the Circassian mountain tribes contend with the superior power of Russia. Those who escape the sword of the bold partisans who always choose the right mement to sally from their safe mountain fortresses, generally fall as victims to the climate, which threatens the native& of the north with a sickness either in the first or third year of their residence. In the fourth year, therefore, there is seldom more than a fourth part surviving of the Russian troops who have come to the Caucasus. Young officers in St. Petersburgh, Moscow, and other provinces, who are desirous of obtaining promotion and orders of knighthood, arc continually soliciting the honour of being sent to the Caucasus, the theatre of incessant wars, and we are constantly hearing that these adventurous youths have paid with their lives the distinction they sought. Thus, in t'e rzteat combats, again several distinguished noblemen, for instance, theloung Prince Apraxin, Gagarin,"and others, have fallen in the field of honour. The fate of Bestucheff, the poet, is especially lamented ; he was sent to Siberia on account of his participation in the events of 1826, par (laced by the Emperor some time ago, and sent to the army in the Caucasus. There he was lately killed by a musket shot, net far from Iskaterinoslay, where he was in garrison. Bestuehrff's name is known to the German public for the beautiful poem of Adalbert Chatnisso, on the fate of Woina rowski and B..stucheff in Siberia. In the same manner most of the officers in the Circassian mountain fortresses meet their Lath ; they are the chief aim of the Circassian muskets ; ind it is said that in Anapa, which is surrounded by moun taing, it has not seldom happened that officers and soldiers as bile exercising in the parade have been reached by the enemy's balls. A. division of Russian troops, which marched, lately along the coast of the Black Sea from Anapa to Su kum- Kale, lost no fewer than 400 men in this march, with out a single engagement, merely by •the skilful ambushes of the Circassians. who, in this respect, resemble the mounted hordes of Abd-el-Kader ; but the petty warfare in Algiers is said to be by no means so difficult to put down, and so fatal to Europeans, as that in the Caucasus. The honour of Russia is, however, as much concerned in the one case as that of France in the other, and therefore the abandon ing of Circassia is as much out of the question as that of Algiers, though it may be long before European tactics w ill triumph either in Africa or La.—Al/genuine Zeitung. PRINCE NAPOLEON LOUIS. (From L' Helvetic of 25th August.) We are happy to see that the French Government has abandoned the project it had formed, in a moinent of appre hension, of preventing the stay of Prince Napoleon Louis in Switzerland. If the French Ambassador had openly de manded of the Diet the expulsion of the Prince, there is no doubt it would have been refused ; for the very possibility of such a proceeding was no sooner suspected than all opinions and parties •in Germany and Switzerland joined to blame such an unreasonable request. The Au,gaburg and Basle Gazettes immediately protested with. equal energy as the liberal newspapers, against the cruelty and injustice of draLL ging from a mother's dying bed an individual who had re ceived in his exile the must precious gift a free people has to bestow—the right of citizenship. But we will put aside the question of legal right and humanity, to show how ungrateful it would have been on our part to have sent the Prince out of the country. Ever since he set his foot. in our territory, he has done all he could to make himself useful ; and, while he was amongst us, he most unostentatiously took a part both in our sports and pastimes, and in our military operations. Ile never e itered into the feuds or prejudices of party, hut contented himself, on occasion, %%WI expressing his noble and gene rous sentiments, without giving offence to any. For this reason he has friends amongst all parties, and the same I,o;pitality was a.hown at his seat at Arenenberg to the nobleman of Berne, as to the democratic Thurgovian. It is becatise he is t xposed to so many attacks for Irav log failed in a rash undeaaking, that we are more parJeu lady called upon to enumerate the many ohltgatior.., we owe to him. In 1833, ‘thilst we were occupied in rev;..ing our federal convention, he published a pamphlet, in which he expressed hims,lf so ably both on political and ~ nilitary &objects, that his opinions were considered worthy of the attention of the Diet. As soon as it was thought necessary to furnish the Canton of Ti urgovia with artillery, the Prince, of his own accord, to save expense to the Canton, made it a present of two pieces of cannon, perf.ctly equipped. In the pillage of Salecstein he has founded a school, where inure than one hundred children are gratuitously educated at :,is expense. He contributed 1,000 florins towards the formaion of a preparatory Fehool in the town of Steekborn ; and gene roisly contributed to tine of Gottheben as well as others. L st year he formed a Cantonal Society for the exercise of artillery, and published a Manual of Artillery for the in struction of the officers of the Confederation ; a a ork which, we are informed, is full of scientific information, and cost him the assiduous labour of many years to complete. It is nithi❑ the recollection of evely one, that Lst summer he saved the life of a lady and her infant child, just as their affrighted horses wore on the point of precipitating them over a frightful precipice. Indeed, he has ever been amongst the Foremost to succour the unfoiltinate, or to encourage useful undertakings. We shall abstain here from all mention of the generous behaviour of his mother to the necessitous around her during the last twenty years, our intention being to confine our selves solely to the personal conduct of the Prince, and to show how impracticable it would he to drive from amongst us a person who has never ceased being useful to the coun try by his talents or his fortune, and for whom the Swisa entertain a wall-merited and high esteem.
