It was an inte resting scene, and shows how powerfully public opinion r emt " on an absolute Sovereign in a country where intel altige,nee has advanced. Indeed every hour shows me more e snore how paternal the Government of Austria in its ginan provi nces i s —l l eav e Italy out of the question , and /ri Engl and it i n th e same ca t ego ry with Ireland, as far as n g i and is connected—and how affectionate the intercourse betw eenp_ the S overe i gn an d the people is.

" The French Cabinet is afraid that Portugal will fol low the example of Spain, and organise provincial juntas, and is endeavouring, on that account, to prevent the entry of the Portuguese army into Spain. Those fears, it would appear, are not without foundation ; for despatches received on Sunday evening announce that the Constitution of 1820 will be forthwith proclaimed in Lisbon and Oporto. What is most curious in all this," adds the Temps, "is that the English Ministry does not seem to have the least uneasiness on that head, and that it is perfectly indifferent as to the form of Government Portugal thinks proper to adopt, pro vided it be not the Sovereignty of Don Miguel." Much is said of a recent audience, at which General Sebastiani, it seems, insisted on obtaining as a compensa tion for the London Embassy, not only the Grand Chan cery of the Legion of Honour, but also the rank and emoluments of Marshal of France. M. de Rigny is likely to be the successful candidate for that Embassy." (From the Courrier Francais.) " The great movement observed of late in the dominions of the King of Sardinia may be accounted for by the ap pearance of two Spanish or Portuguese armed vessels cruis ing off Cape Corsica. They are thought to be the same which remained during the summer on the Genoese coast, and effected several landings in Sardinia. The Sardinian navy appears to be solely occupied in protectinr , suspicious armaments, and even, perhaps, taking part in them. There are now in the harbour of Genoa two or three vessels, fitting out with extraordinary care, whose destination is a mystery. A number of men, having no ostensible duty to perform, are stationed at Savona and Villefranche, and a crowd of un known individuals are constantly going to and fro, in spite of the sanitary regulations. All sorts of extravagance must be expected from a court which publishes daily in its jour nals that Don Carlos is constantly gaining new victories, and that the insurrections in the provinces are all in his favour." ased Secretor,' similar co" Prince George of Cambridge, accompanied by his tutor, the Reverend J.

The narrow ness of the street at this corner has long been a serious in convenience, more especially in the evening, when the mails and mail-carts are leaving the*Post-office for so many dif ferent parts of the town and country. To make the im provements complete, however, one thing is wanted, and that is the removal of several houses on the south side of Paternoster-row, which would afford a magnificent view of St. Paul's, and render this one of the handsomest parts of London. This is not to be done just yet, but will, no doubt, be accomplished with as little delay as possible. A neat stone pillar, surmounted by a large handsome lamp, has been erected at the end of Agar and King William streets, in the Strand, opposite the Charing Cross Hos pital. The chief object of the pillar is to afford protection to the pedestrians in crossing the road there, which was before a very dangerous point. It also gives a handsome finish to the opening.

A Royal salute was fired from the guns at the Castle on their arrival, where they were received with every mark of respect due to their exalted rank. Every avenue to the Castle was crowded to excess, and the roads lined in all directions leading thither as far as the eye could discern, to have a view of the Royal visiters. Refresh ments were prepared on a most splendid scale for the Illus trious guests, to which were invited the Officers of the Army and Navy, and the most distinguished gentry of the neighbourhood ; and about four p.m. the Royal party de parted for Ramsgate under a Royal salute again from the Castle guns, the assembled multitude, which had increased to thousands, cheering them as they passed. Flags were seen floating in all directions, both far and near, and every thing around the beautiful neighbourhood presented a most pleasing aspect. them in future. So rapid has been the progress of vegetation since the late rains, that in some places the farmers are actually hoeing turnips which were not sown a month ago. From the numerous medical and surgical lectures announced for delivery in this metropolis, it must be the fault of the present race of students if they do not become the most accomplished, practitioners ever known. The Feuille de Douai states that on Sunday last, at Boulogne, a man playing at dominoes in a cabarat was suddenly struck with apopleocy in the midst of his game. His adversary, who was very silent on the game, became impatient at his not moving, and begged him several times to play. On looking up at last he discovered that his antagonist was dead I An insignia of a G.C.B. has fallen vacant by the demise of Admiral Sir Charles Tyler, so nominated Jan. 29, 1833. The Government of Fort Charles, Jamaica, held by General Lord Bloomfield, has been ordered to be discon tinued after the life tenure of that Nobleman ; and no suc cessor will be appointed to the office of Governor and Vice- Admiral of Gibraltar, held by the late Earl of Chatham. A whale of a small species was cast on shore last week, at Sangate, near Calais, which was sold by the Ma gistrates for 37 0 francs. The whole of Calais flocked to see this monster of the deep. BRUSSELS AND GERMAN PAPERS, (RECEIVED THIS MORNING.) BRUSSELS. OCT. 4.—The Moniteur Beige contains two Royal Ordinances, by which, as a testimony of his Ma jesty's personal satisfaction, and of the national gratitude, M.

PESTH, SEPT. 20.—According to accounts that may be depended upon, the Diet will probably not sit longer than till the middle of February, 1836, if it be not dissolved be fore that time ; for if the Estates should not comply with the invitation in the last Royal rescript to end their labours as speedily as possible, a final term (terminus coneluszts) will be fixed by the King's authority, which will not exceed the above limit, and so an end be made of all idle and fruitless discussions. Meantime the debates on the freedom of speech (what in England and France is understood by free dom of debate, by which no Member can be prosecuted for the opinions he has expressed, a subject which was first brought into notice here, on account of the proceeding against Vesseling), and another title of the King (whether Ferdinand I. or Ferdinand V.) continues without the two Chambers being able to come to an understanding. The Chamber of Magnates is here too on the side of the Go vernment. But in whatever way these two questions may be decided, it is certain that the real welfare of the coun try cannot be affected. What good is attached to the number that a King affixes to his name ? As for the free dom of speech, it exists among us, and is respected by the Government, so long as it does not degenerate into open excitement to disobedience. Besides, it is here of advantage to none but the privileged classes. The Hungarian Diet, as is well known, represents almost exclusively the Nobility ; the peasantry (or agricultural class), the immense majority of the population, send no de puties ; and those of the Royal free towns (the citizens) make a very poor figure in the Diet, as they are never ad mitted to what are called the Circular Sittings ; and even in the discussions of the Diet, are allowed to vote or not as it may be thought proper. On this account, fifty Royal free towns have lately addressed to King Ferdinand a peti tion or remonstrance of great length, in the Latin language, full of the bitterest complaints, from which we extract the following passage as a specimen :—" Yes, most gracious Sovereign ! that man must have thrown aside all feelings of humanity, who could refrain from lamenting when he sees that all the citizens of fifty Royal free towns, which are so many jurisdictions, and which, by their population, their in dustry, and by bearing the public burdens, essentially con tribute to the maintenance and preservation of the State, that these citizens send deputies to the Diet, who indeed at tend it, but are treated with scornful mockery—that a share in the legislation indeed belongs to them, but that they dare not exercise it ; that they have the law in their favour, but dare not claim its application and execution ; that they have the rights of an esfate without enjoying their benefits ; that they and their representatives resemble mem bers cut off from the body, and are but phantoms of a free constitution, who, instead of the protection of the law, have nothing left but to obey, or at the most, to execute the ordinances. The expense which the sending of the depu ties causes is immense, and must be the more felt in the present hard times, for it can only be defrayed by the hard labour of our fellow citizens. And what have we to offer them in return for this vain expense ? Only to announce to them with sorrow the suppression of their rights," &c. The King's answer is not yet received, and will probably not be speedy.—Frankfort Paper, Oct. 1. VIENNA.—It is affirmed on our Exchange that the ar rival of M. Solomon Rothschild is for the purpose of carry ing into effect, in conjunction with the houses of Geymuller, Sina and Arnstein, and Eskeles, the reduction of the Five per Cent. Stock, which was contemplated, but could not be accomplished, six years ago. As the Four per Cent. Stock is now but little below the Five per Cent., it is thought that the plan may succeed, as the payments to dis sentients would probably be small. VIENNA, SEPT. 26.-5 per Cent. Metalliques, 1023; 4 per Cents., 99a ; Bank Shares, I,333.—Allgemeine Zeitung, Oct. 1. yvV Accounts from Macon state that the vintage has begun this week throughout the whole extent of the Macon district. Notwithstanding the heavy rains of the month of August and the beginning oY September, the last week's sun appears to have repaired in a. great degree the effects of their disastrous influence, and the grape has now attained perfect maturity. The vintage is therefore expected to be to the full as good as that of 1834. PORTENTS OF COMETS,--In 1005 the appearance of the comet was attended by u great famine ; in 1080, by an earthquake ; in 1155 , by a. cold winter and a failure of crops ; in 1230, by rains and inundations (part of Friesland was overwhelmed, with 100,000 inhabitants) ; 1304, by great drought, and intense cold in the following winter, succeeded by a pestilence. In 1380, by a still more destructive con tagion. In 1456, by wet weaCher, inundations, and earth quakes ; again, 1.531, by great foods ; in 1607, by extreme drought, followed by a most, severe winter. In 1682, by floods and earthquakes. In 1759, by some wet, and slight earthquakes. Those of 179.5, 1807, and 1811, by extreme hot and unhealthy weather, as the present portentous one, foretold by Dr. Edmund I:galley, hence called " Halley's Comet." DRURY-LANE THEATRE.--1 11 the comedy of The Road to Ruin, which was acted last night, Mrs. Yates, who has been too long absent from the principal theatres, ap peared in the part of Sophia. We congratulate the fre quenters of this theatre upon the acquisition which has been made, in the engagement of this lady, of one of the most skilful and pleasing of modern actresses. Her per formance of this part—a trifling one, and almost below her powers, but that she has the talent of making characters in themselves insignificant agreeable—was remarkably suc cessful. The other parts were filled as usual, and the co medy was, in general, very ably acted. The Beggar's Opera followed, in which Miss Fanny Healey appeared here for the first time as Polly. She was very favourably received, and without allowing for the consideration to which a debut is entitled, deserved all the applause she met with. Her voice is remarkably clear and powerful. Mr. Anderson appeared as Captain Macheath. His voice is somewhat of the smallest, and his acting rather stiff ; a good acting Macheath, however, is a thing we have given over expecting. The opera has been cruelly curtailed, but all that modern refinement has left of it was extremely well acted, and, as it seemed, to the entire satisfaction of a full audience. The English Opera House closes this evening, when Mr. John Rhodes, the box book-keeper, takes his be nefit. The performances are " Guy Mannering," the first scene of the 2d act of the " Mountain Sylph," (the part of Hela by Mr. Rhodes.) The Farewell Address on the close of the season will be spoken by Mr. Serle. Madame Cord Paltoni, Mrs. Geesin, and Signor Paltoni, will sing in some of the most popular pieces from the operas of " I Puritani," " Marino Faliero," and "La Conerentola." We anticipate, as Mr.• Rhodes deserves, an overflowing house.

Yesterday evening, the third centenary of the trans lation of the Holy Scriptures, was celebrated by the South wark Bible Society, Mr. Briscoe, the late Member for East Surrey, in the Chair ; who, havinc , opened the pro ceedings by an appropriate speech, called on the Rev. Mr. Clayton to move the first resolution ; that Gentleman la boured with much zeal and success to impress upon the minds of his hearers the great truth, so well expressed by Chillingworth, that " the Bible, and the Bible alone, is the religion of the Protestant." He was followed by Mr. San derson Robins, who concluded a forcible speech by observ ing, that the time had come for the believers in the Gospel not to inquire whether they were Churchmen or Dissenters, but for them to unite in disseminating the sacred truths of Christianity, by the circulation of the Scriptures, for the purpose of keeping by the truth. Dr. Kenny, the next speaker, expressed an earnest hope that so important an event would in future be honoured with an annual celebra tion. The Rev. Messrs. Rose, Curling, and Binning, seve rally addressed the meeting, which was very numerously and respectably attended, all present evincing the pro foundest interest in the sacred object which brought them together, and the sanctity of that bond by which they were united as Christians, as Protestants, and as Englishmen. LONDON IMPROVENIENTS.—Amongst the metro politan improvements that are about to be carried into execution, that in the immediate vicinity of the General Post-office may be considered one of the greatest that Itas been effected for some time.

A fine t. ad Brue , gt , >1), fr°lll MEMOIRS OF LIEUTENANT-GENERAL SIR THOMAS PICTotIN, G.C.8.--" Few chieftains, either in an cient or modern: times, have gone through a more active and glorious career than General Picton.

He lirecl. long' enough to rendor his country the most vital services in her protracted struggle against the ambition of Napol eon, and closed his gallant existence in that memorable battle._ which gave peace to Europe. Ge neral Picton's life is a military romance. This work will be treasured in the archives of England, for it delineates the achievements of one of hcr most heroic sons, and describes with a graphic strength rillich occasionally electrifies the reader, those deadly engarrealents which led to the downfall of Napoleon."—Naval and A filitary Gitzette. BATTLE OF WATERL 00.---In some accounts of the battle it is said that the Duke frequently looked at his watch, and then anxiously in the direction of his left wing, in expectation of seeing the Prussians. No wonder, in deed, for having on the previous morning apprised Blucher of his intention to give battle at Waterloo, he had every reason to expect them early in the day. Not 'so Napoleon, who, whatever he may have .pretended, could not possibly expect Grouchy on the field, as I have already explained, I think, to the satisfaction of all persons. Durinc , the crisis of the b a ttl e , w h en our men were falling in numbers, I have been told that a General Officer of some eminence, who was at the Duke's elbow, kept saying it was impossible we could hold our ground for half an hour longer ; till at length the Duke, losing all patience, turned sharply round and said, " Do you thillk it Kill taw only half an hour to kill • Africa. 0; Ler" .ll . t er, Clogs 13c d ' Ar cb from - from ) bart, ,burg' I 10 ...... /o '4 .......... /111' .......... ......... pr,f, ....... 16 P .,. ....... p!Z i ....... .21 1 ' ........ 05 4 , ..... ......... er cent* 6134 ........ cu ... .....

I cannot answer for the fact ; but it is characteristic, and I believe it. It showed the firm resolve of a brave and determined soul ; and it showed the just confidence he had in the stamina of his troops.—From Captain Blakiston's "Twenty Years of Retirement." The friends of Lord John Russell throughout the county have expressed much solicitude to have the honour of entertaining his Lordship, but we have learned that, on the present occasion, - his Lordship is reluctantly compelled to decline the high gratification of meeting his kind friends at public dinners.—Western Times. There seems every reasonable prospect of the diffi culties which have presented themselves in the application of steam navigation to the Danube being speedily over. come.

The Lords of the Admiralty have chartered the ship Asia for the conveyance of 290 male convicts to Van Diemen's Land. IRoN.—A further advance of 10s. per ton in the price of bar iron took place on the 30th of September both in Wales and Staffordshire. This, in addition to the ad vance on the 10th of that month, makes the price of iron the same as before the late temporary depression ; and such is the general briskness of trade, that there is every reason to believe the present price will be fully maintained. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, OCTOBER 5. Our Market to-day has been rather dull, there having been only 2,000 bags sold at last week's prices. In the night of Sunday the stable of Shear man, Esq., at Kingston, was broken open, and the harness and other articles were stolen therefrom ; and in the same night the premises belonging to Mr. Russell, the proprietor of the George Inn, on Kingston-hill, were forced open, and a large quantity of valuable harness was carried away. It is supposed that these robberies have been effected by the same gang that plundered the stable and harness-room of Mr. Roots the week before in the same neighbourhood. On Friday night also, the whole stock of poultry belonging to Mr. Towns, at Kingston, was carried off. On Monday night, the Appeal Registration Court for Stirlingshire closed its proceedings. The decisions, we hear, have generally given satisfaction ; but it w,as held that a farmer who sub-let grass enclosures for the summer, was not entitled to include his rent in the amount necessary for registration.—Glasgow Herald. LIVERPOOL.--The revising barristers, Messrs. Greenwood, Heywood, Abrahall, and Blanshard, held a Court on Thursday, at the Sessions Room, Chapel-street, for the purpose of completing the revision of the list of voters for this district of the southern division of the county —a task which they accomplished about two o'clock. During the day 61 cases of disputed votes were decided, of which 41 were struck off, namely, 22 Reformers, and 19 Tories, ten of each party being retained on the list. The following is the general result of the registration in this township compared with the last : Numbr of voters regis t - .Ted in 1834, 1,022 ; Number of voters registered in 1835, I,44l—lncrease, 419. STIRLINGSHIRE.—AItogether, the present year's registration has been a most harrassing business for the libe rals of Stirlingshire. The immense purse of Mr. Forbes, of Callander, with the Carlton Club at his back, seems to have been brought into operation against the reform inte rest of that unfortunate but not devoted county ; it gives us sincere pleasure, however, to say, that a total majority of 62 additional voters has now been added to the liberal ranks, and it will be recollected by our readers that the county was lost at the last election by a narrow majority of 22. It is understood that the Tory party have ex-' pended 5,0001. in the Stirlingshire registrations this year, and from the host of lawyers and agents which we saw, and which we understand they keep constantly in their employ, we would not be surprised if their expenditure exceeded that sum.—Glasgow Chronicle.—[We rejoice at this result. The numbers at the last election were—Mr. Forbes, 551 ; Admiral Fleming (a stanch Reformer) 529.) THE WILL OF LATE WM. COBBETT.—After some controversy in the Ecclesiastical Court, the will of the late Wm. Cobbett has at length been proved in the Prerogative Court of Canterbury, and the effects of the deceased sworn to be under 1,500/. In the first instance a citation had been issued at the suit of a creditor, to call upon William Cobbett, the son and sole executor, either to accept or refuse probate of the will of his father, and he has agreed to administer to the effects, which are to the amount above stated. There are no specific legacies, but the testator bequeathes the copyright of his works, and all other property, to his eldest son, William Cobbett, and de sires to be buried near his father and mother in the church yard of Farnham, Surrey. The will is dated the 14th De cember, 1833. BEAUTY OF ENGLISH WOMEN.—Certainly our fair countrywomen do bear away the palm of beauty. Much of this depends on our climate ; something on our simple diet ; but more, I think, on our language, which re quires less movement of the muscles of the face than that of any other European nation. The French, in particular, from the pronunciation of their language, have, after a certain age, the lines about the mouth very strongly de fined, which certainly does not add to their beauty. The gesticulations of the English is also much less than that of foreigners ; but whether this arises from the copiousness of our language, which needs no accessories to convey the meaning of the speaker, or from the phlegmatic character of the people, is more than I can pretend to say. This, however, I have observed, that after having been long ac customed to the faces of Englishwomen, the features of the French appear hard ; and, vice versa, when in the habit of seeing French countenances, those of my countrywomen appear insipid.—Front Captain Blakiston's " Twenty Years of Retirement." DURHAM AND SUNDERLAND RAILWAY..--A general meeting of the proprietors of this important under taking took place on Tuesday last. From the statements elicited in the course of the meeting, there is every prospect of this great public work being brought to a speedy and satisfactory termination. One half of the work has already been completed, at an outlay some thousands within one half of the instalments ; and if no unforeseen difficulty should be encountered in its further prosecution, the whole will be completed, at an amount considerably within the original estimate.—Sunderland Herald. Extract of a letter of the 24th ult. from Florence : —" There neither is nor has been any case of cholera whatever in Florence. It is true that about the com mencement of this month, a very few suspected cases oc curred in the Lunatic Asylum, but which have long since totally disappeared. The entrance into Tuscany is free on every side, save from Piedmont, which is owing to a cordon sanitaire being formed by the Lucca Government on the little slip of their territory which runs between the Tuscan and Piedmontese States." QUEEN ELIZABETH'S LEARNING.—Roger As chain, who was her tutor, after extolling the docility and ap titude of her disposition, thus describes the classical attain ments of the Virgin Queen :—" She never yet took Greek or Latin Grammar in hand, after the first declining of a noun or verb ; but only by double translating of Demos thenes and Isocrates daily, without missing every pronoun, and likewise some part of Tully every afternoon, for the space of a year or two, bath attained to such perfect under standing in both the tongues, and to such a ready utterance in the Latin, and that with such a judgment as they be few in number in both Universities, or elsewhere in England, that be in both tongues comparable to her Majesty." FIESCHI, THE ASSA SSIN.—The physicians and surgeons appointed to attend Fieschi, though they for a long time apprehended fatal consequences from his wounds, have at length pronounced him to be perfectly cured. He was on Friday and Saturday confronted with Nina Lassave, and after the examination on Friday he gave her 10 francs to buy a gown. " He," says the Journal du Commerce, "believes that he has not killed any one, and that be will escape with transportation ; and this idea is designedly kept up, by his being supplied with a false edi tion of the Journal de Paris printed on purpose. Nina Lassave was on the point of undeceiving him, when she was stopped by the Magistrates present. We are told that he amuses his leisure hours by dictating his memoirs to the Sergeant de Ville appointed to watch over him, and has even written several sheets with his own hand, of which the above officer hoped to make a considerable profit by publishing hereafter fac-similes, but 'M. Gisquet has taken possession of them all. The woman Petit was set at liberty on Saturday. When the order for her release was communicated to her she fainted." FALMOUTH, OCT.4.—The Earl of Roden steamer, Wilson, CoMmander, arrived here this morning from San tander, whence she sailed on Wednesday last, after disem barking on the 21st ult. the major part of the , 10th regiment, under the command of Colonel O'Connell, from Cork. Sub sequently she took on board 450 English auxiliaries, urfder the command of Major Ross, at, Santander, awl them at Portugalete, from whence the hundred Sr,anish troops were embarked, with which the Earl of Roden again returned to Santander. There was one paanger by the steamer, who states that about the 20th, ult. Colonel Tupper, at the head of his regiment, (the (-qh) 700 strong, Ailed out of Bilboa, and succeeded in tali tng a whole Car list battalion, in number six hundred, wither at losing a single private or officer. Some few Carlists well , killed—the re mainder were made prisoners, after surrendering their arms, and marched into Bilboa. The force nol,v at Bilboa and Portugalete, under the command of Gerwrals Evans and Alava, are computed at 5,000. The two latter officers, with 5,000 of that force, were expected speedily to march for Vittoria, when it was thought they wq,uhihave occasion to give battle to the Carlists, whose main, bOdv are''Sai'd-to be congregating in that direction. It was. fully intenden3k-r--% the auxiliaries to make Vittoria thhic., -heacl4l4o. throughout the winter, should nothing in tit elusive nature be brought about in the in and Portugalete will remain well fortified ie Carlists. At St. Sebastian the troops had all left and ar rived at Bilboa. Provisions were in sufficiency amongst the army, but rather dear—a circumstance chiefli ar:sing from supplies rendered from the neighbourhood to the Carlists, who generally proved themselves good paymasters with plenty of money. His Majesty's brig Arauti/us arrived this afternoon from Lisbon—she sailed thence on the 28th ult., but brings no particular news. On the 24th the anniversary of the death of Don Pedro was com memorated in a very ,imposing and solemn manner. Her Majesty was well, and the city generally tranquil. Two men who were arrested last week at Lyons fcr having committed trespasses on private property, and for uttering seditious expressions against the King, being on their way to prison, one of them. finding himself in a crowd, exclaimed—" I am a friend of Fieschi ; you surely will not leave me in the hands of these brigands ;" and then at- • t2mpted to seize the weapons of one of the gendarmes, but the people remained passive, and a further force coming up, they were incarcerated.—French Paper. MARCH OF INTELLECT.—A very singular seen was witnessed in Carrier-street, St. Giles's, yesterday morn ing. An Irish labourer, named Fagan, residing in the above street, having a child lying dangerously ill with the hooping cough, was persuaded by some of his superstitious country men to adopt the following expedient for the purpose of curing it :—He borrowed a donkey of a costermonger in the neighbourhood and brought it to his own door. He then brought the child out of bed down stairs, and his wife stood on one side of the donkey and he on the other, and passed the child from one to the other, over the back and under the belly of the animal three times, and each time the animal was presented with a piece of new bread. The child was then made to kiss the nose of the animal three separate times, and the father, after muttering some indis tinct words in the Irish language, conveyed the child again to its bed. This took place amidst the most deafening yells of upwards of 200 of the lower order of Irish. To a ques tion put to the father after the conclusion of the ceremony, he said that he felt confident that the disorder would leave the child and affect the animal in the course of 24 hours. The following extracts are made from a newspaper published in 1633, called 21fereicrins Democritus :—" A Kentish grazier, living near Rumney Marsh, a place very subject to agues, in six years hath inriched himself by mar rying seven wives, which he bath buryed, and lately mar ried the eighth, which soon after died ; yet he being very healthy, intends to marry as many more, it being the speediest way to get him a great estate."—" A citizen being invited last Sunday to an offering at a wedding, coming to the bason, and not giving anything, the Churchwarden opened his mouth and said, Sir, you have given Walling: No, Sir, neither will I,' replied the citizen, ' for I was not invited to a giving, but to an offering,' and so he went away." " A perfect mermaid was by the last great winde driven ashore neere Greenwich, with her combe in one hande, and her lookinge glasse in the other. She seemed to be of the countenance of a most faire and beautiful wo man, with her armes crossed, weeping out many pearly drops of salt tears, and afterwards, she gently turning her self upon her back again, swamme away without being seen any more."—" Two fishwomen were lately committed to Billingsate for crying sick oysters." " A red headed, carret bearded chimney sweeper the other night being sweeping a chimney in Holburne, thrust out his head at the top of a chimney to cry chimney sweep, was in that posture espyed by a countrywoman riding home, who as soon as she saw him cried out Fire, fire,' making hundreds of cittizens rust with pails of water to quench the same." The Frankfort German Journal of the Ist inst., has the following from Berlin of the 25th ult. :—" Accounts which have reached us from Kalisch are calculated to as suage the regret of persons who were denied the satisfaction of being present at the reviews. It seems that the malver sation in the victualling of the Russian army was so great, that several hundreds of men deserted to Prussia, where, however, they found no asylum. The peasants and gen darmes went in pursuit of them, and conducted them back to the Russian territory. The discovery of the peculation in the Commissariat Department by the Emperor Nicholas was thus made :—Walking in front of the Guards, he saw an old soldier with whom he was acquainted, and asked him how he fared. Quite well,' answered the man. Are your provisions abundant, and of good quality ?' The ve teran at first demurred, but said, with evident embarrass ment, Yes, yOtir Majesty: The Emperor, remarking this hesitation, said, What do they give you in the morning?' Bread,' was the reply. What do they give you for dinner?' Bread.' What at night ?" Bread. That cannot be,' said the Emperor in anger ; nevertheless, he caused inquiries to be made, which confirmed the fad." THE ELM TREE AT THE CORNER OE ST. PAUL'S.—Persons who have frequented the rooms which are set apart for the use of mercantile and commercial tra ' yellers, in every inn in the kingdom, must be familiar with the " Saturday night's toast," a sentiment expressed perhaps because at that time, more than any other in the week, the comfort of the domestic circle is brought to their minds, and they are led to acknowledge that " There is no place like home." The toast to which allusion is made is as follows : —" To our wives and sweethearts, not forgetting the trunk maker and elm tree at the corner of St. Paul's." Most per sons who have passed through the yard of the cathedral must have observed near the north-cast corner a venerable elm tree, of considerable altitude, which is said to have been planted about the time of the Revolution of 1688. To the root of this venerable tree the axe has lately been laid, and it now lies prostrate. The downfall of the tree in itself considered may justly be deemed an important affair, but there is an historical recollection associated with this which may render it worthy of record. On the spot where it was planted formerly stood Paul's Cross, near to which was a stone pulpit, from whence prelates and divines, both Papal and Protestant, used to fulminate their anathemas, and alter nately preach the Gospel to the multitude. The celebrated Wesley is said to have often adverted to this circumstance. as a justifiable precedent for open air or field preaching. There is also another, though less important fact connected with the spot where the defunct tree lately stood, and which it is presumed is not generally known. Under its shade were deposited the mortal remains of Colonel Edward Marcus Despard, who, with six of his associates, were beheaded for high treason at Horsemonger-lane gaol, in the year 1801.

Mr. Thomas Appleby, builder, of Duke-street, Chel sea, about 9' o'clock on the evening of the previous day was an outside passenger on a Chelsea omnibus, on his way to Battersea ; on the arrival of the, omnibus at the bridge from Beaufort-row, witness observed a chaise-cart with persons in it at the brow of the bridge, coming to wards them ; when within about eight or ten yards of the omnibus, several voices called out, and at the same moment the driver of the cart pulled in upon the near side, in doing which the near wheel struck against the curb-stone, and the shaft went between the iron rails of the bridge.

A correspondent has sent us the following state ment, which, however, will, we suspect, turn out to be an exaggeration ; he is, we know, incapable of a wilful mis representation, but he must have been misinformed as to some part of the account :—" On Wednesday last at two o'clock in the afternoon, a drunken man was beinppassisted through St. James's-park by two women, and a few persons followed the party until they arrived at the post of the sen try stationed opposite the State Paper-office, who desired them very abruptly to move on., At this moment John Stalker. a lad about eleven years of age, came up, prompted by curiosity, when Thmas Cottam of the Scots Fusileer Guards, the sentry and hiAsayone4.., 'on duty, brought his firelock to the charge penetrated the small of the back of the poor lad, `-:no wa s conveyed to the station - house of the A division in Gardener's - lane , in order that some cog nizan- might be taken of the affair. It is under that upon application being made at the Horse Guards, it was stated that the sentry had only acted in the execution of his duty, although it has always been the practice, when a sentry has been disturbed at his pest, to confine the offender in his box until the sergeant of the guard relieves him, when the prisoner is taken away. From personal observation and inquiry, it has been ascer tained that the lad, although not yet twelve years of age, has been for two years in the office of Mr. Francis Turner, barrister of Lncoln's-Inn-square, and is a very intelligent but delicate boy; he is recovering from the wound inflicted by the bayonet, which if it had been a quar ter of an inch deeper must have p roved fatal. It is but justice to the offi cers of the regime nt to sa y that they have taken the into consideration , and forwarded some money to the mot ier ciest , ase an industrious woman , livin g at No. 22, York-street, W minster, and that the offender, who was marched from his post immediately after the occurrence took place, will uu , dergo the ordeal of a military court-martial." ••• -••- ~.. =EMI -s~~~ I ; . - I
