workhouse in Mount-street, with a request that she might Le admitted. The policeman returned, and said it was not customary to receive persons without an order from a Magistrate. The policeman was immediately furnished with an order. UNION-HALL. Yesterday a Woman named Buller was charged with un lawfully disposing of several books and manuscripts, the property of a literary gentleman named Chapman. The complainant stated that be was the author of a work on imprisonment for debt, the manuscript of which, together with several books and documents of importance, he left in a trunk in the care of the prisoner, at whose house he lodged. Owing, however, to peeuniary embarrassments he was com pelled to leave his lodging in arrears of rent, not exceeding lOs., and the trunk and its contents were deposited in the prisoner'S care until the debt was paid. A few days ago the money was tendered to the prisoner, upon which occa sion she said that she had sold the books and papers for a few shillings, adding that she was so pressed for money that she was compelled to do so. The complainant added that, amongst the papers, there was a manuscript of a work which he had written on " Imprisonment for Debt," and upon which he had bestowed great pains in preparing it for the press, and this was made away with as well as the rest of the things. Mr. TRAILS. asked the prisoner what she had done with the manuscript and the books belonging to her lodger ? Prisoner—l sold them to Mr. Bays, the cheesemonger, in Vaekfriars-road, for waste paper, as Mr. Chapman did not pay me the rent he owed me. Mr. TB Amt.—What did you get for the books and papers ? Prisoner—l only got half a crown for the lot. The complainant, in reply to the Magistrate, said that he had been offered 10/. for the copyright of his work on " Imprisonment for Debt" by a publisher in Paternoster row ; that it contained upwards of 600 pages ; and that he would have derived a further profit on the sale of every thousand copies. The prisoner said that bad she been aware that she had such a valuable document in her possession she would not have let it go at so low a price. The complainant said that upon being apprised by the accused that she had sold his books and manuscript at a butter shop for waste paper he went to Mr. Bays, who de nied that she sold him any work of such a nature ; that the butterman during the interview described that he was curious in old books - and manuscripts, and that if such a work as that of " Imprisonment fur Debt" had been sold to him he should not have used it for waste paper, but have endeavoured to find the author, to give . him back the result of his labours. The magistrate decided the ease by inflicting a fine of 20g. on the defendant for unlawfully di:po3ing of the manuscript and books, and a further sum of 403. as compensation to the cninplainant 'Or his loss. In default of payment she was committed for six weeks to gaol. REGISTRATION OF VOTERS. MAR YLEBONE. Yesterday the Revising Barristers for this borough re sumed their sittings at the Court house, for the revision a the lists. (Before Mr. COVENTRY.) The list of the parish of Marylehone was ca'•led on, and the claims having been disposed of, the objected list of 176 names was proceeded with. • REMISSION OF POOR'S.RATES, Mr. Adey objected to IferryAus7en, on the ground that there had been a remission of ponr's-rates to him by the vestry upon a former occasion, even though his rates were paid for tha present year. Mr. COVENTRY considered that under the `_'7th section of the: Reform Act, if a party paid A the rates during his occupation, whether they were paid by himself or another was not material. There was in that case a staciint pay ment within ti e meaning of the Act. But then thew cam.? a::uther question, under the fi6tit section, that no person should be entitled to register who had received parochial relief within twelve months. The question was, was the r, mission of taxes a reception of parochial relief? The Act of .54th George 111. authorised Magistrates, in the pre sence of Overseers, to remit rates. The next question then was, c,hether that remission was according to the Act o Parliament—if it uerc, it was a legal remission. If it were not in the presence of the Magistrates, and there was a charge en the rate-books, awl payment made on his part, yet, in his opinion, there was not the recep rion of parochial relief. In support of this view, he re ferred to Pi chwell's Reports, p. 107. • Mr. Forster (the . .)verscer) observed that in those cases the re mission was mule by the vestry, and not by Magistrates. Mr. COVE ITlll' remark , d that such a remission did not come within the meaning of the Act of Parliament. Mr. 'Wilson observed that it was of great importance ; that the effect of it would be to disfranchise some hun dreds of persons. Mr. Adey said if rant - party had paid the rates it was good, but such was not the case here. This was, however, a remission by the vestry, who transacted business as they p!eased. Mr. Wilson differed entirely from Mr. Arley. He could assure him that the vestry did its business legally. lie considered that the person here bad paid his taxes so as to entitle him to be registered. Mr. COVENTRY observed, if the remission was made by the vestry, it was not final and complete. Mr. Adey said there was not a legal discharge of the rate, and therefore it was no payment as required by the Act. If the other party contended that there was a legal discharge, then this Court was to treat the individual as hay ing. received parochial relief. Mr. Wilson observed that there were a great number of poor persons in Mar3lebone, and the Vestry was con stantly called upon for a remission of taxes. The Magis trates referred such persons to the Vestry. A Gentleman here came forward, and said he belonged to the Vestry, and that the course of proceeding was not for the Vestry to remit the taxes, but to let them stand ot er, Mr. COVENTRY observed that this was merely an excuse, and not a payment of rates. There was not an actual and legal remission. Mr. Wilson wished the case to be reserved, as the effect of the decision would be most importrnt. Mr. COI ENTRY having reserved the case, determined at the conclusion of the day's proceedings, that the s ote must be rejected. (Before Mr. TAMLYN.) The revision of the list of St. Pancras was resumed at the sitting of the Court. Mr. Turner, on the part of the Conservatives, objected to Mr. John Borley, on the ground that he kept a receiving box for the Twopenny Post-office. Mr. Murphy contended, that though the claimant's ap pointment under the Post-office did disqualify him from voting at the election, it did not exclude him from being re.; istered. Mr. Turner submitted, that as the Reform Act prohi bited the registration of all persons legally disqualified from voting at an election, and as a post-offiee keeper was so disqualified, this person's name must he expunged. Mr. TAMLYN said he should consider the point, and for this purpose reserved his decision. Adjourned to this day. Poot.E.--The revision of the lists for this borough was completed on Saturday last, and it is gratifying to find, in a town where the Tories have made such desperate and continued struggles, and have resorted to the meanest arti fices to obtain a majority on the register, that the Re formers have again obta►ned considerable advantage over them.—Sherborne Journal. WAREHANt.—The Revising Barristers' Court for this borough closed on the 7th inst. The result of the revisal clearly shows that Mr. Calcraft will be in a minority at the next election.—Sherborne Journal. SHAFTESBURY.—The registration for this borough took place on Monday last, before Messrs. Graves and Hayward, and the following is the result :—The Reformers gained 32 and lost 8 ; the Tories gained 10 and list 14 ; conse quently the actual net gain of the Reformers over the To ries on the present, as compared with the last year's regis tration, is 28.—Sherborne Journal. NORTHAMPTONSHIRE (NORTII).--The registration for the northern division of the county of Northampton finished last week at Kettering, when the Liberals accomplished a decided victory in striking off 25 voters from Rowell who bad been on the list since the passing of the Reform Bill, and were termed '6 bedesmen," living in almshouses. The registration for the whole division will give the Liberals nearly one hundred improvement from last year ; and, con oquently, reduce the Tory majority from 400 to 200 ; and, in the event of another contest, Lord Milton will be (arly in the field, and carry his election triumphantly.— Meteltry. LlNcot,N.—The result of the city registration gives an ad.!ition d number of 15 ; this will swell the m ticrity to nearly 90, in a constituency of 5 00.—Lincoln 212.rturq. --- The Russian Ambassador will not leave Paris for London until the 6th or 7th of November. B ER LIN, OCT. 13.—From the 12th to the 13th there were three new cases of cholera and th7ee deaths. The Magictrates at Safford had lately two gentle men sportsmen, Mr. Critchley and Mr. Lister, brought he fare them, charged with shooting and stealing a numb er o f fcewls, the property of a farmer, namL , d Eceleshall, over whose lan& they were shooting. It appeared that the sportsmen had bagged three of the fowls, and twelve other fowls were subs:lglu...Ay found killed under the straw of the fold yard. The s:mrtsini.n denied stoutly any intention of felony, hut the :r mistake of fowls for plievants was not explained. MagistrWes refuse l to in;erfere io the matter. GERMAN PAPERS. BERLIN, OCT. 10.—The stagnation both in public and private business, caused by the cholera, is increased by the absence of all the members of the Royal family, ex cept his Majesty the King himself, who has just left his summer residence at Charlotteburg, and returned to his palace in this city. The Crown Prince is at Te gernsee, Princes William, Charles, and Frederick at Luduzsludt and Schwerin ; Prince Albert is gone to the Hague. Prince William, the King's brother, is at Mayence, and likewise Prince Waldemar ; Princes Adal bert and Augustus are now probably at Constantinople. COPENHAGEN, OCT. 13.—We learn from Christiana that thirty gun-boats will be built according to the plan of Captain Louis ; they are to have each two mortars (60- pounders) and several howitzers. FRONTIERS.OP POLAND, OCT. 30.—8 y a Russian Ukase lately issued, the estates of the Polish emigrants, which have been under sequestration, are to be disposed of, for the benefit of Russian civil officers and others in narrow circum stances, and in this partition regard will be had not so much to the services of the individuals as to their civil or military rank. Thus Russia will create in Poland itself a Russian aristo cracy, by means of which not only that country may be kept in check, but which in case of need would form a counter poise to the old Russian nobility. Lithuania finds it difficult to recover from the evils which war and persecution have brought upon it, and bands of robbers now infest that fine country. With respect to Cracow, there has been an idea of incorporating it with the kingdom, but it would be a thousand times better, as well for the city and the general good, that Cracow should be assigned to Austria, and become the capital of Austrian Poland. Whatever may happen, the status quo can not possibly be maintained ; the city, which sees its trade de cline, and poverty increasing , would suffer too much by it. The state of Austrian P o l an d is more favourable. ROME, OCT. 6.—During the last five years a revisal of the codes has been repeatedly began, but no essential im provement in the administration of justice has yet been effected. A new Commission is now appointed to examine both the penal and the civil code, in order to put an end to the complaints which are more and more vehement. Four Cardinals, Falzacappa, Gamberini, Alherghi, and Tiberi, are appointed members of this Commission, with Men signore Bontadosi as secretary. The lawyers who are to take part in this important work are not yet known. Let us hope that the matter will be t a k en u p i n earnes t. Monsignore Capaccini, Under Secretary of State, has re turned from his tour in Germany, and expresses himself as much satisfied with his stay in the capitals which he visited. The Savings Bank here, where preparations had been made to pay out large sums, was not called upon during the prevalence of the cholera, to pay in all more than 15,000 scudi, which shows the great confidence ce the public in that useful establishment. The last Ordinance respecting the cholera displeases the common people,. who no longer believe that the disorder is contagious, while the physicians stilly maintain their old opinions, either not to retract what they have once said, or not to argue with the foreign physicians. In one o f th e most populous parts of the city, a house, in which - a ease of cholera occurred, was ordered to be isolated; but the neighbours interposed, and the measure could not be executed. Diplomatic interven tion has succeeded in gettir ' e the system of block a d e g i ven up ; the frontier is again free for • travellers, and our Government has therefore given orders to remove the sana tory cordon en the line between Terracina and Frasinone, a nd nit to stop travellers coming by that road. D. Dietz, from Vienna, has received a very kind letter from the Duchess of Perrna, acknowledging, in the most Lttering terms, his exertions during the cholera. lie, as we'l as the other German physicians now here, have acquired the esteem and gratitude of the right-minded Rant ans in the highest degree ; but they are not without those who envy them, among their Italian colleagues. d A .1131i1IG BORSEN HALLE, Cc - r. 17, - Lillis, Money An;:tria,, Me!pl'Auir s . .' per cent.

TtIE RAI LwAY—During the four days of the races last week the number of passengers on the railway was 19,494—0 n the Leith Branch, 2,244. It is renrul.- able that, notwithstanding the great numbers of passengers conveyed on this railway, it being in that respect only the third or fourth-rate in the kingdom, only one passenger has ever met with a serious accident, and that was a woman who took a panic at the horse stumbling before a coach, jumped out and broke ber arm.—Edinburgh Evening Courant.

Only fifteen workmen are at present employed on the works at Pompeii. An Englishman lately obtained permission to lodge for fifteen days in one of the old Roman houses lately opened here. He had the house completely repaired in the true classical style, and he and his family all assumed the Roman costume. During his fortnight he read none but the old Latin authors, and his table was served in the fashion of a genuine citizen of the Roman republic. There has been a meeting of great families upon the projected separation in high life ; and, although great difficulties at first presented themselves, a compromise has taken place. Yesterday afternoon an inquest was held at the sign of the Fox, Keaton, near Bromley, Kent, before Mr. C. J. Carttar, on view of the body of Edward German, aged 24 years. It appeared in evidence that as the deceased, who was a carter in the employ of Mr. Butcher, farmer, of Keston, was going down Fox-hill (at Keston) on Tuesday morning last, with a load of sand, he was knocked clown by the horse, and the wheel passing over his body killed him on the spot, several of his ribs and left wrist being broken. Verdict—" Accidental death." The unfortunate younr , man was to have been married yesterday. Yesterday afternoon, about three o'clock. Mr. Mer cier, builder, of Primrose-place, Kentish -town, on his re turn home to dinner, felt himself taken suddenly ill. He had hardly time to express a wish to see a doctor, when be fell back in his chair and almost instantly expired. Sur gical assistance was immediately procured, but life was ex tinct. Ile was a most abstemious man, and for the last five-and-twenty years was never the least afflicted, bearing a great antipathy to medicines. He has left a large family to deplore his loss.

Prince Metternich was long against this plan, but has lately consented to it, partly to diminish the intro duction of papers published in France, and partly with a view to oppose the Russian tendency of the Journal de Fran(foil. The dinner to be given at Guildhall by the Lord Mayor Ocet and the Sheriffs, will take place on Thursday, the 16th of November. The 15th of November was first named, but in -consequence of that day being appointed for the meeting of Parliament, and the election of the Speaker of the House of Commons. the dinner has been postponed to the following day, when there will be a great abundance of the Iwzories of life.

One of those animated and imposing gatherings which are so congenial to tl►e Highland spirit, took place at Inverness on Thursday se'n►►ight. The principal gentry residing in the capital of the High lands and in the neighbouring counties, to the number of several hundreds, assembled for the purpose of tes tifying their respect to RODERICK M`LEOD, Esq., younger of Cadboll, the Representative of tl►e Inverness district of boroughs, by entertaining that gentleman at a public dinner. The Northern Meeting Rooms were fitted up for the occasion with an elegance that called forth uni versal praise. We have perused the speeches de livered at this great meeting with great pleasure. They are given at considerable length by our able and respected Contemporary, the Inverness Courier, and we regret that it is not in our power to-day to transfer them to our columns. Sure we are that they can be read by no one without admiration of the talent dis played—by no sincere Reformer without a cordial concurrence in the sentiments uttered, and the prin ciples advocated by the speakers. The speech of the Rev. Mr. STARK is particularly deserving of public attention. It is one of the best that have been delivered at any of the Reform meet ings held since the dissolution of Parliament, and we shall certainly make room for it on Monday. The Chairman, Captain FRASER of Balmain, who was unexpectedly called upon to preside over the meeting in consequence of the absence, from illness, of the gentleman who was to have taken the chair, discharged the duties of his office with a promptitude of address, an eloquence, and a tact, such as would have done honour to any one, however much in the habit of presiding at public assemblies. The Honourable Gentleman, in honour of whom the entertainment was given, entered at length into the great questions of Irish policy, with which he showed himself familiarly acquainted. He described the condition of Ireland since the Union, and showed that that condition was any th►ng but what was intended by the incorporation of the kingdoms. Mr. MACLEOD then explained the reasons of this failure, and pointed out the course of policy by which the union could be made productive of beneficial effects to both countries. We direct the attention of our readers to Lord CLONCURRY'S answer to Mr. O'CONNELL'S letter, proposing a meeting of the Irish Members of the two Houses of Parliament in Dublin, before the opening of the Imperial Legislature in November, which will be found in our columns of this day. We have no doubt that the meeting will he well attended, and just as little that it will be followed by the most important results, provided the object in view be solely the plac ing of Ireland on a politic:al (quality with England and Scotland. The Noble Lord's letter will repay tl:e trouble of a careful and attentive perusal. Our Contemporary the Post is continually falling into some blunder or other on the subject of the war in :;pain. In this theie is less to be wondered at, than in his anxiety to uphold the Pretender as a mirror of clenv-utcy. Has our Contemporary any intLvidual cause for harping so constantly on a s'ring which sounds so d:scordantly in. the public ear ? To laud the wherry l at carries one safely over the ferry is nat ura l, but if the boat look crazy and worm-eaten, it Wouid be as well to account for the praise by explailin g the service which calls it forth. So at least thought Mr. WAL- ToN, for in dwelling upon the urbanity of Don CAR LOs, he was careful to inform his readers that his Royal Highness, when a fugitive in England, had en tertained his panegyrist with more than an hour's social chatat Gloucester-lodge. Has our Contemporary, then, or any of his personal friends, experienced the exercise of that clemency which the world has yet to' learn is peculiarly characteristic of the Durango butcher ? The Post, we must presume, has some motive for holding up the Pretender as a pattern of clemency, in open defiance of hundreds of proofs of the savage blood thirstiness of his nature, and to obtain credit for such a statement, the motive, whatever it is, ought to be stated. Thus, in commenting this morning on the liberation of the three English gentlemen seized by the Carlists on their way to Madrid, the Post coolly observes : " Don Carlos, in this case, has acted with the generosity which is a distinguished trait of his character. He knows that Colonel Wylde, who was hospitably received by him at Segura, as a representative of the British Cabinet, has subsequently laid aside his neutral character, and placed himself at the head of the army of the Queen. He knows that the failure before Bilbao was altogether owing to the active suggestions of Colonel Wylde, and he is also aware that Colonel Lacey and his companions were destined to fulfil similar missions with the different divisions of the enemy's force. There could be no doubt that these officers were as much prisoners of war as the Lieutenant of Marines I lately taken near Hernani ; and we feel that Den Carlos I has really exceeded the bounds of prudence in giving way to his good nature, and not taking advantage of this opportu nity to let Lord Palmerston know that he is in a situation not to be trigkd with." GOD forbid that we should attribute to our Contem porary criminal motives ; but has he reflected on the Carlist interpretation •of this rather mysterious con cludina sentence? Would he have Don CARLOS shoot the three unarmed officers whom he seized, clothed with the sanctity of British Commissioners to the-Cabinet of Madrid ? In this sense, will every follower of the Pretender interpret the language of the Post ; and we shall be surprised indeed, if a paragraph penned in v er y th oug h t l essness o f th e dread ! ful lesson so clearly inculcated, lead not to the imino, lation of the next English prisoners seized by the brutal butchers of the captive Legionaries. The Post, we must in charity suppose, meant no more than that Don CARLOS ought to have kept the Commissioners close prisoners ; but the passage will bear, with strict regard to grammatical accuracy, a worse construction. Besides, the object of the article altogether is to show that Don CARLOS suffers from his excessive lenity, and as his murders of the English prisoners is not once alluded to, his partizans can only infer that the Post approves of such executions, and tacitly regrets that re course was not had to them on the occasion referred to. Our Contemporary would do well in future, to avoid a liability to such dangerous misconstructions, by stating plainly and honestly his opinioi.s in detail of the con duct of the Spanish Pretender—particularly as re gards the murder of the English prisoners. When the lives of our fellow-subjects are at stake, there ought to be no mystery in the language employed by public Journalists on subjects likely to affect their duration. If our Contemporary only intended to express regret that Doh CARLOS did not keep the Commissioners close prisoners, we cordially unite with him in that sen timent. Such conduct would have brought his Peeten dership in direct collision with-the Government of this country —•a position which would have given us most unfei,ned pleasure. Lord PALMERSTON, culpably indifferent as he really is to the settlement of the Spanish question, could not tamely put up with a violation of the sanctity of the ambassadorial character, in the persons of the Commissioners. The nation would not suffer him so to sacrifice the dignity of • the British Crown. ThiS Don CARLOS well knew, and therefore he avoided the shoals upon which the Post would recommend the stranding of his rebellious hopes. The King of SARDINIA, as all the world knows, i 3 the most faithful ally of Don CA Rrms—the agent through whom the Holy Alliance makes its monthly remittances in support of the rebellion in Spain. In fact his Majesty of SARDINIA is, in the opinion of the leading Tories of this country, a pattern of royalty and religion ; and it has been boldly ad vanced that Don CARLOS, on ascending the Throne of Spain, would adopt the enlightened policy of the mighty monarch of Sardinia. We never doubted this—nay, we were the first to maintain that nothing could be more likely. We asserted, that were Don CARLOS elevated to the throne of Spain, the quisition would be restored in full vigour —that the Supreme. Judges of the land would,be men clothed in the white habit of St. DOMINIC. How far this would be at variance with the religious toleration of the SOVEREIGN of Sardinia, we leave our readers to infer from the following extract from the German papers received yesterday. but which want of space prevented us from publishing in yesterday's Sun ; TURIN, OCT. 2.—Whoever considers the sincere efforts of our present King to improve the state of the country, by the establishment of manufactures, the extension of commerce, the erection of public buildings, making new roads, &c., and also remembers his humane and intrepid conduct at Genoa during the prevalence of the cholera, cannot comprehend how it was possible for his Government lately to issue a circular, which prohibits all notaries from drawing up deeds in favour of Protestants, even deeds of purchase and sale in which Protestants are parties. Nay, more, henceforth Protestants are not to be called as wit nesses in the kingdom of Sardinia. This spirit of intole rance, which would throw the people back to the beginning of the 17th century, when our country, as is well known, was one of the least enlightened, is in perfect unison with the lately published scheme of a new civil code, on which the most eminent lawyers of the country and the Univer sity have been engaged for these seven years, and from which much was expected, - especially as our civil legislation is still so much behindhand, and recalls to mind times that are long past. In this project the Protestants are treated in civil contracts worse than the Jews. At all events this is not the way to make the inhabitants of Piedmont and Savoy forget the code of Napoleon. The whole of the Paris Journals of Thursday have been received. A telegraphic communication had been made to tl , e Government from Spain, announcing that on the 14th, IRIARTE had conducted the Foreign Legion from Pampeluna to Urro on its way to Jaca. The posts of the Valcarlos line are about to be suc cessively attacked by seven battalions and several pieces of artillery, under . the joint command of GUERQUE and GONY. These troops have concen trated themselves at Engui, and will commence ope rations by a general assault on Zubiri. On the 10th, ESPA RTERO marched from Salas in quest of the Pre tender, who was reported to have posted himself on the road to Aranda. The French Government received the following des patches from Africa : " GENERAL DAMREMONT TO THE MINISTER OF WAR. •‘ TOULON, 17TH OCTOBER.—BONA, 12TIL—By his letter of the 10th, written on the plateau of Manshoura, Ge neral Peregaux announces that the army arrived before Constantine on the Gth. It rained a great deal for two days, which very much impeded the operations of the siege ; but the weather had become fine again, and it was expected that the breaching batteries would begin to play on the 1 1 Lb. The Duke do Nemours was in good health. Col. Bernelie, who is at the camp, will join the army on the 13th with three battalions, 200 cannoneers, 250 horse art twery, and two 12 pounders. These troops will take under their escort the Prince de Joinville, who arrived a- Medjez-el-Hamar on the 9th. .‘ GENERAL DAMEEMONT TO THE MINISTER OF WAR. " Toe LON, OCT. 17, HALF -EAST EIGHT, P.M.—SAMIIA, OCT. 5.-1 have arrived here with the two first brigades and the besieging . artillery ; the r es t o f th e army, and the convoy which joined this morning, are about to follow. We are within sight of Constantin e. E veryt hi ng t h ere appears ~be eitl et. We cannot perceive any new works. Au incon.iderable camp is on our left, and several groups of Arabs are going to it. We shall bivouac to-night near the town. The, weather is fine, and the army perfectly healthy." In addition to the above, the Commerce announces the death of the BEY of Tunis, on the 10th inst., in the 52d year of his age. We quote the paragraph _ • " The Acheron, ust arrived at Toulon, has brought intel ligence that the Bey, Sidi Muatapha, died on the 10th inst., in consequence of an aneurism of long existence ; and that his son, Sidi Achmet, has been proclaimed his successor without any opposition. The new Bey is about 30 years of age, full of energy, end of a fz od nalornl un derstanding, ;.- T - it is added, a . p.irtialny an: the French. The late Bey was in his 52d year, and had always conducted the affairs of his Government with pru dence and judgment. The Acheron left at Tunis the Jena, bearing Admiral Lalande's flag, with the Sufren and Al gesiras under his command. The Sufren had by an acci dent unshipped her rudder ; as soon as this was refitted the Admiral was to proceed with his squadron to Bona, to bring back to France the sick and the troops, after the. capture of Constantine. It appears that Admiral Gallois and his ships will remain for some time at Tunis, as the Diligente was about to be sent to him from Toulon with supplies." There is no domestic news of the least general inte rest in the French papers. The Opposition prints complain, and with some show of justice, of the at tempts of the Court to revive the etiquette of the old regime, on such occasions as the marriages of the younger branches of the Royal family. The Bank of France has established a branch bank at St. Quentin, which is considered only a preliminary step to the establishment of such branch banks in all the large commercial towns of the kingdom. The elections are proceeding in favour of the Court candidates, but nothing definite is known as to what line of policy the KING will adopt at the opening of the Chambers. The following are extracts : (Extract from a letter from Bayonne of the 13th inst.) The immediate topic of the day is the following :—Cap tain Chadwick, late of the 3d Westminster Grenadiers, not being in good health, was sojourning at a cottage on the right bank of the river, between Terrara and Passages, with only his servant, a mere boy. On the morning about four o'clock, he was awoke by two armed men entering his room, who told him he was a prisoner of his Majesty Charles the Fifth. Chadwick remonstrated, assured them he was not an officer, nor then connected with the Legion. Their only reply was that he must at once leave. Having forced him out of bed, and compelled him to dress, they then packed up all his things, during which time he unperceived slipped a case of pistols into his pockets. His horse having been saddled, and he mounted, they all proceeded along, ono hold ing the bridle, while the other followed in the rear with the servant as prisoner. The morning was beautifully fine, and the men continued in the direction of Alza ; when, passing near a grove at the foot of the hill which leads to Renteria, Chadwick pulled out of the pistols and fired at the man leading the horse, who immediately fell wounded: His companion, who was panic-stricken, let go the ser vant, who ran towards the river, flung himself in, and swani safe to the opposite shore, while Chadwick rode with the greatest haste to Alza, and, having alarmed the guard stationed there, they proceeded to the place. No trace could be found, with the exception of some blood on the earth, sufficient time being given to carry away the wounded •man. Chadwick saw him fall, having, as he says, hit him thioligh the head. What renders this hold attack the more remarkable, is that a company of the Royal Irish were sta tioned in a house on the bank of the river, not fifty yards from Chadwick's residence. We have seen the news from Madrid of the 10th. The letters of the 9th say positively that M. Mendizabal departs for London. He is resolved to quit the ungrateful country, in which not one Electoral College has chosen him to sit in the next assembly of the Cortes. It is said that the action of Retuerta leaves the two parties in state quo. Some persons expect a great battle before the winter closes ; others imagine that the Carlist Generals only think of repassing the Ebro, before the rains set in. Besides this, theie is a story which represents Don Carlos as being in a very precarious state of health, and so accounts for the inactivity of his Generals. Among the letters brought by the Crocodile, is the fol lowing, dated " Store, Bth October. All the reports re ceived to-day from the South say that the French were encamped before Constantine the evening before yesterday. A crowd of Arabs, who had not yet stirred, are setting out from all quarters in hopes of some good opportunity to plunder. " Others have been stationed for above a week on the ridge of the mountains of Achsa, in order to be at hand to join the party of the conquerors. " Those of Collo do not believe that the Bey of Con stantine will wait to see the effect of the French cannon. They say that he had made all his arrangements to retreat to the south with his principal troops, and that he will not fights " The inhabitants of the beylick would in fact prefer the government of the French to that of the Bey ; persons of influence do not hesitate to express this opinion ; they are constantly asking for news."—Le Commerce.

Miss Beaumont, formerly of Covent-garden Thea tre, and well remembered as a favourite singer, of great attraction and unblemished name, has, since her return to the stage as Mrs. Owen, acquired great provincial fame, not as an operatic performer, but as the representative of the leading characters both in tragedy and comedy.

The 14 beautiful bays, belonging to the Count, who is a Hungarian nobleman of great wealth, whose attachment to the sports of the field induces him to reside in England, are to come to the hammer. Yesterday afternoon, about four o'clock, as Mr. John Kent, a gentleman residing at No. 1, Chapel-street, Oxford -street, was proceeding in his gig along the Ux bridge-road, he was seized with a giddiness in his bead , and, dropping the reins, fell from his seat to the ground.
