Vab irb Mbition. FRANCE. Private letters from Brest, dated the 27th, men tion that much activity is observable in the dockyards of that town. The Girafe transport, 550 tons, is under orders for sea by the Ist of October. Her destination is said to be Toulon, to which port she c onveys 200 marines and a quantity of timber for masts. She is likewise to take on board 15,000 rations. The frigate Africaine, and the transport ships the Caravanes, Allier, and Proserpine, of 800 tons, are to be commissioned on the Ist. These vessels are, it is said, to convey troops to the colonies, to relieve those at present stationed there. The Souffleur and the steam corvette Laborieux had arrived, and been taken into dock. Letters from the Belgian frontier state that the miners of Mons had manifested intentions of commit ting depredations in France. Orders are stated to have been given to the military commandants of the frontier towns to repel any such should they be at tempted. The same letters add that the garrison of Lille was yesterday kept in its barrcks, with the view of acting if necessary. The Messager de Gand states that a ll th e h ea ds of the linen factories in that neighbourhood have just held a meeting, to take into cons id erat i on t h e present critical situation of their business, in consequ ence of the commercial differences between Belgium and France. The meeting even t ua ll y decided to send i n impress on memorial to the B e l g i an G ove rnment, to on it the necessity of immediately resuming the ne gotiations. The Moniteur publishes the official returns of the price of wheat in the various markets of France, from which it appe ars th a t the highest price i s 23 francs 10 centim es the hectolitre at Marseilles, and the lowest pri ce i s 15 francs 34 centimes the hectolitre at Toulouse. GERMANY. The following passage from the memoirs of the late G ene ral Von Muffling, written by hi mse lf, un d er the title of " Ans meinem Leben," will perhaps at this moment be read with some interest. Muffling w as the agent of all communications between the head-quarters of Blucher and the Duke of Welling ton during the march of the allies on Paris, after the return of Napoleon from Elba : "During the march (after the battle of Waterloo) Blucher had once a chance of taking Napoleon prisoner, which he was very anxious to do; from the French Commissioners who were sent to him to propose an armistice, he demanded the delivery of Napoleon to him as the first condition of the negotiations. I was charged by Marshal Blucher to represent to the Duke of Wel lington that the Congress of Vienna had declared Napo leon outlawed, and that he was determined to have him shot the moment he fell into his hands. Yet he wished to know from the Duke what he thought of the matter; for if he (the Duke) had the same intentions, the Mar shal was willing to act with him in carrying them into effect. "The Duke looked at me rather astonished, and began to dispute the correctness of the Marshal's interpreta tion of the proclamation of Vienna, which was not at all intended to authorize or incite to the murder of Napoleon; he believed, therefore, that no right to shoot him in case be should be made prisoner of war could be founded on this document, and he thought the position both of himself and the Marshal towards Na poleon, since the victory had been won, was too high to permit such an act to be committed. I had felt all the force of the Duke's arguments before I delivered the message I had very unwillingly undertaken, and was, therefore, not inclined to oppose them. I therefore,' continued the Duke, wish my friend and colleague to see this matter in the light I do; such an act would give our names to history stained by a crime, and posterity would say of us, they were not worthy to be his con querors; the more so, as such a deed is useless, and can have no object.' Of these expressions I only used enough to dissuade Blucher from his intention." There are three dispatches given by Miffing in the appendix to his memoirs, in which the execution of Napoleon is urged on the Duke of Wellington by Blucher ; they are signed by Gneisenau, and leave no doubt of the determination to revenge the bloodshed of the war on the cause of it, bad he fallen into hands of the Prussian Commander. Blucher's fixed idea was that the Emperor should be executed on the very spot where the Duo d'Enghien was put to death. The last dispatch yields an unwilling assent to the Duke of Wellington's remonstrances, and calls his inter ference "dramatic magnanimity," which the Prussian head-quarters did not at all comprehend. Probably but few Frenchmen are aware of the existence of this correspondence, or that it is an historical fact Napo leon's life was saved by his rival, whom it eost no small exertion to save it. TUNIS. A letter from Tunis announces, that on the 13th ult., at two A.M., a fortress within a short distance of the town had exploded. The houses within the gate Beb-Sadoun, together with the Turkish mosque, were thrown down by the shock. A cannot fell from the top of a tower on the Corn-market. All the magnificent mirrors in the Seraglio and in the Barde have, been broken to pieces ; a windmill alone is left standing. Letteis from Tunis also announce that the state of the Bay's health is alarming. One arm and one leg have become entirely paralysed, and the Bey has not been able to take the baths which he usually uses every year. MINING INTELLIGENCE. (From the Mining Journal of this day.) The transactions in shares during the week have been to a limited eittent only, and that chiefly in the best dividend mines, and those nearly arriving at making profits or paying costs. South Caradon have advanced to 1501; West Caradon, 1801 to 1851; West Providence, 501 ; and Tremayne, 281.

West Wheal Dar lington have risen from 451 to 921 per share—having discovered a rich bunch of silver ore. In most other shares the number of sellers preponderate at present, and the business doing is not to any considerable amount.

THE LA PLATA STEAMER. This magnificent vessel made her first signal of arrival from the West Indies in Southampton 'Water, at 9, P.M., on Wednesday. At 10, P.M., boats with persons from Southampton were alongside. On stepping aboard they found the saloon brilliantly lighted up, and a band of musicians playing sprightly airs to beguile the time of the passengers. At 11, P.m., the mails were landed, and the Admiralty agent and captain of the ship were ashore. The La Plata left St. Thomas on the 16th September. Her consump tion of coal on her homeward voyage averaged 93 tons per day, and her average steaming was about 280 miles daily. On her outward voyage her consump• tion of coals was ninety-four tons per day, and her speed was about 290 miles daily. The slight supe riority of her outward voyage, as compared with her homeward one, was owing to the very favourable winds she experienced going out. No long time can elapse before Australia must be reached by the shortest route and by the quickest means. That route is undoubtedly the western one, viii Panama, and those .means are paddle-box steamers. The long sea space of 4,488 miles, between Pa nama and Tahiti, has hitherto been considered the great obstacle to a rapid voyage to Australia, because of the difficulty which was believed to exist of paddle box steamers carrying fuel sufficient to go such a distance. The performances of the La Plata enable us to judge of the practicability of a paddle-box steamer traversing this sea-space. It is now proved that that steamer can carry 1,400 tons of coals, and travels 290 miles daily, at an expense of 94 tons. She could thus carry fuel sufficient for 15 days' consumption, and she could traverse during that period about 4,300 miles, which is within 200 miles of the sea-space between Panama and Tahiti. There is not the slightest doubt that she could be made to carry sufficient for a voyage of 4,500 miles, and to travel nearly 300 miles daily. The great difficulty in reaching Australia by the quickest possible means is, there fore overcome, and it will be no longer considered that the voyage to our Australian colonies can only be reached by sailing-vessels or screw steamers. We are now independent o f th e w i n d in reaching the antipodes. The performance of the La Plata will mark an epoch in the history of ocean navigation. Sh e Can go hundreds of miles farther with one sup ply of fuel and at a greater speed than any vessel ever built. One such vessel placed at Southampton, another at Panama, and another at Tahiti, fully coaled and ready to stert at a moment's notice, and a communication could be made from Southampton to Sydney in about seven weeks. It is now, therefore, practicable to literally traverse a straight line on two oceans, which measure together 12,000 miles in length, or over one-half the circumference of the globe, by water in less than two months. Of all the triumphs of the intellect of man, this is one of the greatest, and will turn out the most useful. RACING FIXT OCTO] RES FOR 1852.

COMMITTAL of a NOTORIOUS BURGLAR. A notorious burglar, named Moggs, one of a gang of desperate ruffians who have long infested the neighbour hood of Frome, and who, after eluding justice for a long period, was recently captured through the activity of Newport, one of the Frome constables, has been fully committed for trial by the Frome magistrates on two distinct charges. On the premises of the prisoner being searched there were found on them no less than seven bags of skeleton keys, containing 130 altogether. They were concealed in a floor under the loft, and lying by ti. , em was a pair of knitted socks, such as housebreakers wei:Nr over their shoe 3 to prevent noise; they were wet, and Ow fresh grass upon them clearly showed that they had been recently worn. The occurrence created con siderable excitement in the town of Frome, and the streets we're lined with people, in the same manner as when the prisoner with his companions Hurd and Spar row were in custody on suspicion of being the mur derers of the girl Watts at Key ford. The prisoner ap peared much dejected, The evidence given against him was similar to t hat upon wbioh Sparrow and Hurd have already been transported. In the case of the robbery of Mr. Plaister's wa rehouse it was proved that a man named White, who was watching his garden to prevent depredations on the night of the 12th of June last, saw the prisoner and Sparrow get over a wall and go to the door of the wurehouse. White ran and got the assistance of three other men, and on returning caught the prisoner Maggs and Sparrow coming out laden with a bag con taining cheese; a struggle ensued, but though the goods were captured the thieves succeeded in getting away. Two caps belonging to the prisoner and Sparrow were also found; they were so mada as to form a disguise for the face. The prisoner was folly committed for trial, and this formidable gang is now broken up. MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

Floating car goes and duty paid parcels are wanted at last week's rates. For a cargo of brown Bahia 178 per cwt refused. MOLASSES.-Beveral purchases have been again made in West India, but without producing any ad vance, Barbadocs and Antigua selling at 14s to 15s, and other kinds 12s 6d to 13s.

POLICE INTELLIGENC BOW-STREET. Arthur Kendall, aged 26, the cashier of Me.isrs. Gray and Woodcock, solicitors, of 20, Lincoln's Inn fields, wrs charged before Mr. Jardine with embez zling 101/. 165., and other large sums of money, re ceived on account of his employers. Mr. Grey, barrister, conducted the prosecution. He regretted to state that the present was only one of numerous charges which would be preferred against the prisoner hereafter, and for the proper in vestigation of which a remand would be necessary. Mr. David Gray, the senior partner of the firm, who gave his evidence with painful emotion, stated that the prisoner had been their confidential clerk and cashier for about ten years. It was his duty to receive payments on their behalf, and when they amounted to 1001. and upwards, to place the money in the bank. On Wednesday last some irregularities having been discovered in his accounts, he was requested to ex plain them to witness. Toe day-book contained entries of several sums, amounting in the aggregate to 101/. 165., which he had received on behalf of the firm ; but there was no corresponding entry in the bank-book showing the payment of that amount to the bankers. Instead of attempting an explanation of the circumstance, the prisoner exclaimed " I am a great scoundrel, sir, and have been robbing you for some time past. I am an ungrateful fellow." He then pointed out another discrepancy in the accounts, exhibiting defalcations to the amount of 3021. 7s. 10d. Witness said, "Why, you must have robbed us of 1,500/., or more." He replied, "I do not think it is more than 1,000/." He then told witness that he had become involved to a serious extent in horseracing and gambling transactions, which had ruined him. The prisoner, who merely said "I am guilty, and throw myself on the mercy of Mr. Gray," was re manded for a week. LAMBETH. Elizabeth Heath, alias Randall, a notorious begging letter impostor, was placcd at the bar on a charge of stealing eight valuable diamond and other rings, a bracelet, and other property, belonging to a lady named Oiseau, 95 years of age. Miss Lucy Shaw deposed that she had been the companion of Mrs. Oiseau for fifteen years, and lived with her at her residence, 8, Terrace, Walworth. Some weeks ago the prisoner called on her mistress with a petition, when she represented herself as the widow of Captain Allen, who had been lost at sea, and Mrs. Oiseau, b3lieving her representations, gave her a sovereign. On Tuesday evening last the pri soner called again, end upon being told by the ser ant that her mistress wes at dinner she said she would wait to see her, end went into the drawing room. The set vent informed her mistress that the prisoner wes up st-.'ra ; she came out of the dining room for the purpose of going to and telling the pi isoner that there r$ as no use in her stopping, but on going into the hv't she saw the prisoner in the act of leaving the house by the feont door. On seeing her the pi :goner said she should colt again, bat witness told her that it wes of no use, end she went away. Soon after eight rings, a bracelet, and other articles, which her mistress had placed in a basket on the drawing-room table just before dinner, were missed, and suspicion immediately fell on the prisoner. The two rings and produced were a portion of the property stolen. Elizabeth Field, the servant of the prosecutrix, de posed b having admitted the prisoner into the house, and showing her to the drawing room, where the rings were. This witness swore positively that no person but the prisoner had ent3red the drawing room from the time the rings were plued there until they were 10-4. The searcher at Greenwich station-house said, that while searching the prisoner at the station the bracelet produced fell irom her bosom to the ground, and she subsequently picked it up steel thily and was about to put it into one of the pockets she had searched, when the witness took it from her. On her person she found a number of duplicates relating to various pro p3rty, and in her gloves, which she was very anxious to retain, she also for Id a duplicate for two rings. A shopman from Mr. Martin's, a pawnbroker in Tooley-street, produced two rings (sworn to by Miss Shaw), which he said bad been pledged by the pri soner on Wednesday last. The prisoner, in reply to the charge, said the wit nelses were quite mistaken in her person, and that she had neter been to the house of the prosecutrix at all. She could not, she said, deny having pledged the rings, but they had been given to her by another p3rson. Horsford, the Mendicity-officer, was here sworn, and raid that be had known the prisoner for many years as a notoriou s begging impostor. Her real name was Randall, and both she an d h er husband had convicted for fr au d s on the benevolent. been frequently The prisoner was remanded un til T hursday next, and the constable who has the case was desired to look closely to the property to which the other duplicates found on the prisoner related, as it was strongly sus pected that it had been stolen in th e same way as the rings. FIRE AT LEITH. DESTRiiC2 IIIIE On Tuesday morning about three o ' c l ock it was dis covered that a house in the fifth story o f a l arge tene ment, known by the na me of the Barr ac k s , and situated in Lawrie' s Cl os e, pr i n cipally occupied by I r i s h labourers, was on fire. Th e flames spread rapidly f rom room to room, and the whole roof soon became one sheet of flame, which for nearly two hours illuminated the town. The house in which the fire originated was tenanted by a family who were about to emigrate to Australia, and the father and mothsr had, it appears, been attending a wedding in a neighbour's house on the preceding evening, and had left their children in the house alone. About three o'clock the watehman observed large quantities of smoke issuing from ote of the windows, and he of course immediately gave the alarm. On obtaining as entrance into the house the smoke and flame burst forth with great fury, and it was with the g re a t est difficulty that the eli;ldren were ii.aved from the flame d . Th e fire spread rapidly, and in a short time most of the inm a t es of the other houses were rushing from the b u ildi ng in a partial state of nudity, while others wore throwing their furniture and clothing out of the windows; but mo s t o f them had, however, to escape for their lives with out saving much of their effects. Two of the fire-enei nes , under the direction of Treasurer Millar, and Mr. Gra n t, superintendent of police, were soon on the spot, and while a body of firemen, with one of them, was stationed to prevent the fire from communicating with the pouring ad joining buildings, the other was a constant supply of water on the devouring element. The fire engine item Leith Fort we, • also iii, attendance soon aft er the outbreak of the fire, but it was found unnecessary to use it. For a ' onsiderable time it was feared that the whole building woul I be burned to the ground, but, tbrough the well-directed effors of the firemen, th e fi re was confined to t'se two uppr stories; and about six o'clock it was completely subdued. The inmates of the home in which the fire originated have lost the whole of their furnishings for Austrelia, and also a bank cheque for 20/., which was in the house at the time. We t lieve that about twenty families have been left house less, and have been compelled to seek a temporary shelter in the poor-house, while others have had more or less of their effects destroyed. The cause of the fi re has not been properly ascertained, but it is supposed to have bee the result of a lighted candle falling among some clothes. We understand that none of the property is insured, and the loss will therefore fall very heavy on the parties Op have suffered, many of whom have lost their all.—ecoicnan, Dispatches were received yesterday at the Colo nial 'office from the Governors of Van Diemen's Land, Natal, and the Gambia.

The friend of her childhood was Maria Fedorowna, wife of Paul 1., Emperor of Russia, and she was in the suite of that princess when Paul visited France, Holland, and Germany. Consequently she saw much of the courts and courtiers of those several countries, and her memoirs are filled with a variety of anecdotes, not alone of lords and ladies, but of emperors and empresses, kings and queens, and reigning princes and princesses. As a picture of society anterior to the French revolution, the book is the latest and most perfect production of its kind extvit, and as such, besides its minor value as a book of amusement, it possesses a major value as a work of information, which, in the interest of historical truth, is, without exaggeration, almost incalculable. — Observer. NAVAL INTELLEGENCE PROMOTIONS. The following clerks have bee❑ promoted to the rank of paymaster : William Holmes Turner (1841), second in se niority on the list, in charge of the Minden store ship, Hong-Kong ; Francis G. Pearce (1844), Bth on the list, late in charge of the Athol store-ship, Coast of Africa; Henri Charles Pool (1844), 9th, of the Saturn, flag-ship, Pembroke; Thomas Alexander Telfer (1844), 10th, numbered as belonging to the Hercules, but not found in the list of officers of that ship ; J. E. Stiles (1844), 11th, in charge of the Trident steam-vessel, en route to the Pacific ; James William Murray Ashby (1844), 12th ; James Charles Pinhorn (1844), 14th, late in charge of the Janus steam-vessel (the fourth clerk promoted from that ship) ; William Henry Mugford (1844), 15th, not employed for some time, accu:ding to Navy List ; and Richard Curgenven (1844), 16th, of the Edin burgh screw gunnery-ship. We perceive that Mr. E. J. H. Helpman (1842), the fourth senior on the list, remains a clerk still. That he is clerk in charge of the missing Arctic ship Terror (one of Franklin's ex -edition), and may never be heard of any more, can he no excuse for passing this officer over ; for mates, lieutenants, and com manders of the missing ships have been promoted, and the chief has had the good service pension conferred upon him. The poor clerk, however, has been always passed over. The above promotions are made, we presume, as a preliminary to the new regulations for the paymasters and clerks. Herald. APPOINTMENTS. Commander —Frederick A. Egerton (1852), to study at the Royal Naval College, Portsmouth. Lieutenants —Charles Nolloth (1 845), to the Albion, 90, Mediterranean ; Hugh Pearson and Edward Lacy (just promoted), to the Excellent, gunnery ship ; Charles J.

The committee nominated to consider the best method of converting Mr. Lang's three-decker Royal Albert into a screw-ship, composed of Mr. Laire, master shipwright, of Chatham ; Mr. Abethell, of Portsmouth ; Mr. Rice, of sheerness ; Mr. Ather ton, chief engineer at Woolwich; and Mr. Murray, chief engineer at Portsmouth, are engaged in their task. We presume Mr. Lang, the veteran architect, is the chairman of this committee, although his name has not been mentioned. We cannot help thinking that these committees are getting too numerous. Everything now a days requires a committee's re port. The office of Surveyor of the Navy almost seems to be superseded. It would be much better if the Somerset-house departments of the navy were permanently increased, and the dockyard officers kept at their respective establishments.—Herald. Rear-Admiral Superintendent Henry Prescott, C.B.,_struck his flag on Th urs d a y even i ng on b oar d the Neptune, 120 ; and at nine o'clock yesterday morning the flag of Rear-Admiral Arthur Panshawe, C. 8., was hoisted in its place.

THE CLOTHING MANUFACTURES. FOREIGN WOOL, LEEDS, OCT. I.—Transactions in foreign wools have been very moderate in extent this week, and chiefly for the supply of present requirements. There has been no apparent variation in prices. ENGLISH WOOL, LEEDS, OCT. I.—There has been a moderate amount of business done this week, and prices are firm with an upward tendency. LIVERPOOL WOOL, SEPT. 30.—More doing in wool, and prices firm. Mogadore, Turkey, &c., are wanted for the United States. Imports the past week consist of —416 Buenos Ayres, 3,000 Alpaca, 180 Peruvian, 1,420 Oporto and Lisbon, 161 East India, 660 Mogadore, and 25 Trieste and Alexandria. TRADE OF LLEDS.—There was not so good a market on Saturday as we have had during several preceding weeks, for although there was a good attendance of merchants in the Cloth Halls, they bought very care fully. On Tuesday also there was a falling off, and only a very moderate business was done. Mixture cloths, both single and double milled, constituted the principal demand. The stock of cloth in the Halls is exceedingly low, and of very poor choice; probably this may in some measure account for the state of the market. There is a fair country trade in heavy goods, suitable for winter, doing in the warehouses. The ship ping houses are mostly quiet. Wo believe there has been a good general trade done, quite an average during the month that has just closed. We do not remember that the staple trade of this town was over in a more healthful state than it is at present; a larger business may have been done, but not a sounder legitimate trade. BRADFORD, SEPT. 30.—The trade of this district is characterised by light stocks, a full demand for goods, and such high prices in the raw materials, wool and cot ton, with an upward tendency, as to render the employ ment of capital comparatively unremunerative. TRADE OF MANCHESTER:SEPT. 30.—Yarns of almost all counts and qualities continue in good demand, and prices have been farther strengthened by advice. brought to hand from the United States yesterday, to th• effect that cotton had still an upward tendency. Cop yarns are a good deal sought after by manufacturers, as also are 40's to 60's mule twist suitable to the India markets. In cloths there is little change to report. Printers are not so much inquired for, but they go off still in large quantities, and at full prices. For 36-inch and 40 to 45-inch shirtings there is also a good deal of business'. For light domestics, T, and long cloths, there is but it moderate business. The market generally is firm and healthy. TRADE OF LEICESTER.—There is no material falling off in the demand except the glove branch. The home trade is steady, and the emigration to Australia has caused an influx of orders, particularly for shirts and drawers. Worsted spinners still complain of the inade quate price yarns realize in proportion to the rise of woo ls. There is no giving way by the -woolstapler, who holds firmly, and the prices of sorts remain stationary, noils and brokes being most in demand. COAL 111ARKET.—YxszEnDAY.

To this price the buyer demur red, but proposed tto give 3d. a pound, the ewes to be weighed after having been driven a distance of ten miles without food,. This was agreed to, and by the scales, the average at the rate fixed made the price 255. 6d. The ewes had lost 71b. by their: walk and fast. BIRTHS. OF A SON.
