TOPLITZ, OCT. 1. (From a Morning Paper.) This is the fifth day since the meet ng of the Sovereigns ; You choose cahsntnhsen tCnocnagirleists,, willonferesace, or by whatever name tme that a decided o The d rrminate in ten days more, it is results. Pi):A'ion should be pronounced as to its formation c".fity of getting at correct diplomatic in- L ane d . any w here is very great ; but it is particularly en erteae la .a 'country like this, where so much reserve is ex putii,co 'the part of the several persons employed in the offices, and where the Government has a wholesome tertor of the English Press ; but still I think I am on sure ground, and if on any former occasion I have procured you .ecurate intelligence, I have reason now to believe that I 4t141" got withi n the temple and seen the mystery, or rather ie absenc e of all mystery, disclosed. What the original 3atention of a meeting of Sovereigns at Kalisch might have been cannot be so easily ascertained, and the profound by eeerisY of Russia gives us dlways reason to . believe that a alPact against the West of Europe wssuld have been urged by h er s ; but now that the rans t feror of Austria has : c aned to appear there, and that 'che re-union here has be ':_ourno.e obligatory on his part, from the courtesy due to his :Ihis allies, and tbe nec-sssity of renewing personally, on s is s s a .ceession to the tbrone, the good understanding which 8 11: Subsi sted between Ills predecessor and the Emperor of Rus plea•nd King of Prussia, the case has taken another com mentn' and we may yi e ld t o th e conv i c ti on th a t no agree ire h as been entere d i nto openly or secretly, which can , Th intilsrage to eith er E ng l an d or F rance. • ~i q The Emperor Ferdinand has come to the throne deter to follo w the policy of his father to the letter, and all ;`". we have heard of his intentions to modify the system „ad to discard the Councillors with whom the Emperor tai r l a i n s eis So long acted are untrue. The same contradiction 4 i uPPIy to the stories which have been circulated of his therdered body and imbecility of mind, as, though the one e i, a L lr, his health - has been but occasionally deranged, and the Fier is quite on a level with ordinary intellects ; and. sess inperor, if he boast not of very brilliant qualities, pos e! a plain straightforward good sense, which teaches him ae'llght road, and a good heart, which makes him also all has for the happiness of his people. His great desire t ee ,Peen to communicate to his brother Sovereigns his in „ibelen to avoid war, and the occasion of war, and that his ras p e r r es ,° ll re'ss would be employed to the interior improve and t h' t h e empire, without interfering with other nations, P- has been so well supported in these views . by the Ath , rl of Prussia that the Emperor Nicholas, if he had apjd Other designs, has been compelled to abandon them ti oas ' ° join, o r pre t en d to j o i n, i n the pac i f i c declara and- ( 1 his allies. I can say t h at A ustr i a enterta i ns, a nd entertain, a well-grounded jealousy of Russia, sho u ld" ever the moment arrives when that Power it s p" throw off the mask and seek the ex t ens i on o f C o '°Pean f ron ti ers , an d a b ove a ll t h e occupat i on of ,neestantinopl e , t h at moment Austr i a i s i ts most bitter a04 413? ' and P rance an d E ng l an d may ca l cu l ate on a sincere plo,i w arril friend. But as long as Russia is pacific and 4 i de A fensive, and heartily unites in preservi ng E uro p e ;tAustria can have no other desire than to be bound the tlie sam e soun d an d pru d ent course. It is not in tah.Prtsent day th a t A us t r i a h as gone over to t h e R uss i an th"'D ; but it is Russia which has come to her professing 4 1 .,„ 84 : me Principles, filled w ith th e same p ac ifi c sp i r i t , an d ofi; e lig to th e b as i s o f C onservat i on, w hi ch i s the sole aim of t he fore Cabi ne t s o f A ustr i a an d B er li n, b ut espec i ally rorm er , no l°d eed, common sense points out that Austria can have o f e r aim—her possessions are as extensive a s the map to „rope can afford ; and the utm os t v i g il ance is required ,e'llaintain their union and entirety, and that no enemy L, n 4 b.e so fearful to her as the extension of the Russian trP,ire, and the preponderance which the possession of /t 1 : 1 11 .eY would give it. Austria well knows that to-day ' s . l a is comparatively weak ; and that so far as instruc t: is above ignorance, discipline above rude masses, she t ar . c onsider a bl y t h e advantage, i n contrast with the Bar s 144 of th e N ort h . S he has no reason to dread the t - il e o stilt of a contest, - should occasion force into one ; but, ti t : 6 she has no fear, she is persuaded, at the same that not hi ng is to be gained by a state of war, and sam e te aks only t o t h e bi n di ng d own her ne i ghbour to the a ote e confine s w hi c h s h e now possesses, and to the spirit of oth e r which i s a necess i ty f or one an d a b ene fi t for the W4 O Austria i s so li c it ous t o ma i n t a i n a str i ct alliance boa coniinced that it is essential for the mutual ' and the general repose of Europe ; and she is also t eent to prove to the Czar that the general tranquillity te e be the joint object of both, and I believe that on h e occasion, aceasion, an explanation to that effect has taken place of then the Monarchs, as well as through the diplomacy ic t ‘ ne countries ; and vhatever may be the secret designs ;u se t lasia for the present, I can undertake to say they are Dier ee ded—and England may rest at ease and without sus roil". I believe that the condition of Turkey engages as the Re the attention of Austria as it does of us, only that while Nbwere indifferent whether it continued in the hands of the toe""en Mahmoud or was transferred to that savage Alebe aeli, t h e Emperor felt the necessity of preserving the Iserient sovereignty of the - Porte, and of giving it, if it o h ; e Possible, increased stability. She was so alive to this .kAet, and the Sultan knew so well the favourable views of I.4lls,tria towards him, that when he sent, in 1832, Namik e na to London to pray for our interference against the gYPti tr e „ ao army, he ordered him first to Vienna, and en fore'‘e,d that his request to us should be backed and en hZ the Emperor. our here Ii pressed th e ma tt er i n t h e warmes t niannero , n al tnister s , b ut we were deaf and blind at the time. w , e I,e'sr°e for ewarned that., in case we r e fused, Russia should he gss, 4 ; ed to, and we were entreated to take care how we Ail, ht the Pretext of finding the road to Constantinople. ali*,, -° , we vel', was in vain, the Reform Bill engrossed our aiat t l D .e " and Namik Pacha left us in despair, and the Rus tlio 'agle was displayed at Scutari.

I have put this letter very clumsily together, because I have had but a few minutes given me before the closing of the post, and the access to the papers I have alluded to, but I. could not put off, even for a day, conveying to you the assurance that the meeting of Sovereigns at Toplitz would end harmlessly for the interests of England, and without danger to the general tranquillity. The Congress will end on Sunday by the Emperor of Austria going to Prague— the capital of his kingdom of Bohemia, where he will stay a few days to receive the congratulations of the people, and at a public audience hear their complaints ; and by the Emperor of Russia going on Monday to Carlsbad, and thence to Prague, where he will spend three days in an other visit with his august brother of Austria. The King of Prussia will remain three weeks longer, for the benefit of the waters, and all the other princes will break up on Tues day or Wednesday. The Emperor of Russia has expressed a desire to see the fortress of Theresenstad in this neigh bourhood, and he will visit it to-morrow ; but I have heard several persons express displeasure that the force of the province should be intimately examined by their dangerous and inquisitive neighbour. I will give you the movements of the Court by the morrow's post. THE ALDERMAN'S DREAM ; AND HOW IT ENDED. " Mr. C. Pearson said, he knew perfectly well why the interrup tion to the public business at the last Court of Common Council took place. Half -past four o'clock, Sir Chapman Marshall's hour for dining had arrived, and he happened to know also that Sir Chapman Marshall was under sail at the moment to dine with the Navigation Committee."—( Sun of Saturday. ) At the Common Council, in civic state, The great Sir Chapman Marshall sate, Listening, with grave and goose-like port, To the public business before the Court ; And striving hard to discover sense In Alderman Birch's eloquence, 'Till, sudden o'ercome by the vain attempt To find out sense, where sense was not, Sleep fell upon him, and he dreamt— Regardless of the sacred spot— A dream so odd, so outré quite, That the thought on't gives me an appetite. He dream't, this sad, bewildered cit, he Saw the Navigation Committee, With whom, but a day or two before, He had promised to dine, at half.past four, Sit down, without him, to serious eating, At the City of London Tavern Meeting. All—all were on vast achievements bent, For all were in their element ; One, havoc wrought on the venison hash, One, embowelled the callipash ; And one, as fierce as fierce could be, Committed a rape on the callipee, Crying the while, with liquorish phiz, " Oh Lord I what a fine blow out this is I" In vain, the hapless sleeper, he Strove to join the Company ; In vain roared out with angry brow, " For God's sake, stop, 'tis my turn now ;" In vain pressed ravenous on, I ween, To snatch his share of the rich tureen, And claim, as befitted his station high, A Dividend on the pigeon pie ; The more he struggled, the more, slack I A goblin Radical pulled him back ; And he saw each savoury viand dear To his soul, grow less and disappear; Saw others eat, ill-fated elf Without being able to eat, himself (A state of things, 'twixt you and me, Most harrowing to humanity) And heard the guests with anxious stare, Cry, " Where's Sir Chapman Marshall, where ? He said he'd be here by half-past four, And 'tis now full six o'clock and more, So, take away, for 'tis time that vie Should have Non Nobis Domine." Take away I That awful cry Dispelled Sir Chapman's reverie, And starting up, to the Court's dismay, He looked at his watch and broke away, Shouting, as swift he trod the floor, Swifter than man e'er trod before, " Horror of horrors, 'tis half-past four l" Vainly the Court conjured his stay, His only answer was " take away ;" Vainly burst out in angry roar, . His reply to all was, " half-past four"— A reply he felt was both just and wise, And the best of all public apologies. Oh rare pretext Oh brilliant plan I To enable a hungry Alderman To postpone his public duties, in right Of his own more pressing appetite ; Whenever henceforth I hear or see A Whig or a Tory Ministry, • Count out the House, and hurry away, On this or that pretext, by way Of evading some awkward motion, or vote Of Hume, of Roebuck, or of Grote, I'll think of Sir Chapman Marshall's snore, And his very convenient—half-past four COURT CIRCULAR. Their Majesties went yesterday to the Royal Military Asylum, and the Royal Hospital at Chelsea, accompanied by the Duchess and young Prince of Saxe Weimar, Prince Ernest of Phillippsthal, Prince George of Cambridge (at tended by Sir James Reynett), and accompanied by the Marquis of Conyngham, Earls Denbigh and Howe, Coun tess of Mayo, Lords James and O'Bryen and Elphinstone, Hon.

The Royal party left St. James's at half-past eleven o'clock, in six carriages, escorted by a party of the Life Guard. Their Majesties and suite returned to St. James's at two o'clock. Yesterday, at three o'clock, the King held a Privy Coun cil on Colonial matters, having reference to Barbadoes and other islands. The Council was attended by the First Lord of the Treasury, the Secretaries of State for the Foreign and Colonial Departmen6, the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, the Lord Chamberlain, the Master o the Horse to the Queen, and Sir Alexander Johnston. The Hon. William Bathurst was the Clerk of the Coun. cil in waiting. His Majesty gave audiences to the Marquis Conyngham, Viscount Melbourne, Viscount Palmerston, Lord Glenelg, Lord Holland, and Sir William Gomm, Field Officer in waiting. Lord James O'Bryen and the Hon. Captain Campbell were the Lord and Groom in waiting. The Queen, accompanied by the Duchess and Prince of Saxe Weimar, visited the New Palace, in St. James's Park, yesterday afternoon. Her Majesty honoured Drury-lane Theatre with her pre sence last evening. The Queen was accompanied by Prince George of Cambridge, the Duchess and young Prince of Saxe Weimar, Prince Ernest of Philippsthal, and was at tended by the Countess of Mayo, Earls Howe and Den bigh, and the Rev. Mr. Wood. Her Majesty and suite left St. James's shortly before seven o'clock, in three of the Royal carriages. The King had a dinner party last evening at St. James's. The dinner was served in Queen Anne's rooms Amongst the company were—the Landgravine of Hesse Homberg, the Prussian Minister and Baroness Bulow, the Hano verian Minister and Baroness d'Ompteda, the Bishop of London, the Marquis and Marchioness of Conyngham, Marchioness of Wellesley, Earls Mayo and Errol, Countess of Errol, Lords Fitzroy Somerset, James O'Bryen, A.

Viscount Melbourne and Sir Frederick Lamb arrived in town yesterday from Panshanger. Yesterday Colonel Macleod had an interview with Lord Glenelg at the Colonial-office. Actions, we hear, are threatened against more than one of the Railway Companies .for enterini , upon lands before they had paid for them, or even agreed upon a price, THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1835, FASHIONABLE INTELLIGENCE. ARRIVALS. The Earl and Countess of Morley, at their scat, Boringdon House, Saltram, Devonshire, from Bath; Lord Elphinstone, at Fenton's Hotel, St. James's-street, from Windsor Castle; Sir John Wells, Bart., at ditto, from his seat in Sussex ; Captain Hope, at ditto, from a tour ; J. Hoffman, Esq., at the British Hotel, Jermyn-street, from the Continent ; Mr. and Mrs. Fellowes, in Regent-street, from Cheltenham ; Prince Jamh O'Deen, of Mysore, at the Hanover Hotel, Hanover-square, from Dublin ; Countess Louisa Malas chowsky, and family, at ditto, from Brighton. THEATRES. DR UR Y-LANE. The announcement of the visit of her Most Gracious Majesty to the above establishment drew last night one of the most crowded audiences ever assembled within its walls. The Queen, with her accustomed punctuality, arrived at seven o'clock, accompanied' by Prince George of Cam bridge, and Duchess of Saxe Weimar, and the young Prince her son, Prince Ernest of Philipsthal, and attended by the Countess Mayo, Earls Howe and Denbigh, and the Rev. Mr. Wood. The Queen acknowledged with much grace the hearty greeting bestowed by her loyal subjects. Her Majesty was attired in a splendid white satin dress, with bonnet and feathers to correspond, and looked ex tremely well. The tragedy of Macbeth, the last act of the ballet of The Revolt of the Harem, and the melo drama of The Brigand constituted the entertainments, and all the performers exerted themselves 'in a meritorious manner, to deserve the approbation of the Royal visitors. It may be questioned whether Macbeth was ever got up with more care than on the present occasion. The taste for the legitimate drama, as it is called, must revive if such exertions continue to be made, for the selection of perfor mers in the entire cast, and for general attention to the nose en scene. The chorusses, including all the vocal strength, were admirable. DEPARTURES. Mr. and Mrs. Dore, and family, from the Hanover Hotel, Hanover-square, for Northampton ; Lord Farnborough, for his seat, Bromley-hill, Kent ; Lord Farnham, from Portland place, for his seat in Ireland ; Mr. and Mrs. White, from Warren's Hotel, Regent -street, for Cheltenham ; Mrs. Knipe, from ditto, for her seat near Epsom; Sir Thomas and Lady Hislop, from the Brighton Hotel, Jermyn-street, for the Con tinent ; General Hall, from ditto, for his seat near Exeter ; R.

The Queen certainly visits the University of Oxford next week. It is supposed that her Majesty will arrive there on Monday evening, and spend the following day in viewing the University, and witnessing some academical celebration in the theatre. It is expected at St. James's Palace that the King and Queen will leave for Brighton Pavilion on Monday, the 2d of next month. The Duchess of Saxe Weimar and Prince Ernest of Phillipsthall are expected to take leave of their Majesties, on their return to the Continent, in a few days. Part of the Queen's household will accompany their Royal Highnesses to Rotterdam. A Government steam vessel is in a state of readiness for their conveyance Their MajestieS the King and Queen of the Bel gians had an uncommonly quick passage of two hours and fifteen minutes. The King and- Queen, after leaving Dessin's Hotel, proceeded to Cassel, where • they slept, on their way to Brussels. M. Van de Weyer, the Belgian Minister is, it is understood, charged with the superior resi dence of Claremont, to which place he proceeded after taking leave of his Sovereign at Dover. The Duke of Devonshire continues at his favourite seat, Chatsworth, and has, during the past week, received the following guests :—Lord and Lady Rivers, Lady Hardy and daughters, Lord Paget, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Ark wright, Mr. Barker, Earl Newburgh, Lord and Lady Wharncliffe, Lord Cowper, Sir William and Lady Boothby and family, &c. The Duke, it is stated, will leave Chats worth in ten days or a fortnight, and after visiting Brighton, will proceed on a Continental tour. His Grace has been very little in town since his resignation of office. The Duke and Duchess of Sutherland are expected to leave for Brighton in a few days, where a house is en gaged for their reception. The Dowager Marchioness of Salisbury had a se lect converzatione on Sunday evening, at her house in Ar lington-street. • The Marquis and Marchioness of Londonderry are entertaining a distinguished party of the Tory Nobility at Wynyard. The Marquis and Marchioness of Salisbury and a select party of the Nobility, are expected at Walmer Cas tle this week, on a visit to his Grace the Duke of 'Wel lington. The Right Hon. the Speaker of the House of Commons and Mrs. Abercromby left Stubbing Court on Wednesday last for Edinburgh. The Right Hon. H. La bouchere, M.P., and J. Hume, Esq., M.P., visited Mr. Abercromby during the past week at his residence. Th e Duke and Duchess of St. Albans, and suite, arrived in town on Wednesday night. The Duchess, though greatly changed since she was on the stage in Glasgow, is still a handsome woman. She was attended by two of Sir Francis Burdett's daughters, two tall good-looking ladies. Her two physicians were likewise of the party. When visiting the Exchange in their carriage, the Duke, who sat on the dicky, passed unnoticed as the coachman.-Glasgow Courier. The Marquis and Marchioness of Lansdowne pass a few days with their noble friends, the Earl and Countess of Mulgrave, at the Viceregal Lodge, previous to their re turn to Bowood Park. The Prussian Embassy is about to be removed to Bryanston-square, his Excellency Baron Bulow having taken the house formerly occupied by Baron Feick, the late Dutch Minister.

Several distinguished personages passed through Calais last week, principally Ambassadors, viz. —Count Sebagtiani, French Ambassador in London ; Count Matus zewic, Russian Ambassador at Naples ; Count de Lavradio, Portuguese Ambassador at Madrid ; M. SevMne, Russian Charge d'Affaires in Switzerland ; General Baudrand and several Secretaries of the Embassy, all coming from England. A new tragedy in rehearsal at Drury-lane is from the pen of Barry Cornwall, and bears the title, we believe, of the " Provost of Bruges." Macready and Vandenhoff are to sustain the principal characters. EARL OF MULGRAVE AND THE MAYOR OF DERRY.-It was well known at the time of his Excel lency's visit, that Gillespie, the Mayor of Derry, and all the clique to which he pertains, had entered into a ca bal, to prevent as many as they could influence from at tending the dinner got up in honour of his Excellency. His Lordship took up his domicile with the Bishop at Boom-hall, and was fully aware of the set about to, be made against him. Still, as being the representative of Royalty, his Worship felt himself constrained by etiquette, to pay him the formality of a merely morning call, and ac cordingly, early on Thursday, he rode out to Boom-hall, with his chain of office around his neck, and sent in his card or a message, I forget which. Whether he himself was al lowed to remain in the vestibule, or shown into a different apartment, my memory does not enable me, with certainty, to say : the former, I rather think, was the case. His Ex cellency, after considerable delay at length came forth. After a few stiff bowings had been exchanged, his Excel lency requested to know whether he was to consider Mr. Gillespie's visit as that of a private gentleman, or made in his official character as Mayor of Derry. The answer was, " Oh, certainly, as Mayor of Derry." " Well, Sir," said Lord Mulgrave," having now received you in that capacity, I have to add that I shall require your attendance as the barrack-master of Derry, whilst I inspect the establishment under your superintendence, and some other public institu tions in the city ;" and his Worship was obliged to mount lis horse, and follow in the train of his Excellency, whilst he went to the barracks, from that to the gaol, from that to the infirmary, the lunatic asylum, &c. I saw the cavalcade, and I assure you that if one could judge from the rueful countenance of the civic dignitary, he would have been well contented to be elsewhere.—Northern IVhig. Advises from St. Petersburgh to the 30th ult., via France, announce that the Russian Government had re solved to enforce quarantine upon English and French ves sels, but no reason is assigned for this step. The vessels which had arrived in the roads of Cronstadt had in conse quence been placed i❑ a very embarrassing situation, not having known any thing of these measures at Elsineur. The English Consul had complained to the Government ;- but, when the accounts left, little success had attended 'his efforts. INSTITUTION AT STAINES, MIDDLESEX.—The new building erected at the foot of Staines Bridge is in tended for a scientific and literary institution. It is now nearly roofed in, and will be completed by next Christmas. It consists of a spacious theatre for lectures, and two smaller rooms. The institution will open on the Ist of January, 1836, the anniversary of the establishment of the Society. These are the pursuits best adapted to supply the craving popular mind with gale and wholesome pabulum; and with draw it from the embittering and perilous, excitement of politics. NEWSPAPER STAMPS.--A return of the number of Stamps issued for all the London Newspapers, by order of the House of Commons, on the motion of Mr. Charles Buller, was printed last week, in which official document, Mr. Clement, the proprietor of the Observer, had used in one year (the 30th of June, 1834, to the 30th of June, 1835) for his two Weekly Journals only, nearly one million of Stamps, namely, 071,125, averaging 18,675 each Sun day.—From the Observer of Sunday, Oct. 11. On Friday evening, while Mr. Adams, the eques trian, was going through his performance in the circle at Astley's, the audience were very much alarmed at pereeiv , ing . a quantity of blood issue from his mouth. He was im meaiately assisted from his horse, and carried out of the ring, and a surgeon was sent for, when it was discovered that he had broken a blood vessel. He was subsequently removed to his own residence, where he still lies in a dan gerous state. The accident caused considerable sensation among the audience. It was attributed to over-exertion in his performance. VICTORIA. Last night, after the historical drama of Marie Antoi nette, a novelty was brought out by the spirited manager of this theatre, under the title of The Smuggler's Haunt : or, A Fire-side Story. Giles Darrell, a smuggler and poacher, landlord of the Owlet public-house, has a son (Richard), who is in love with Miss Letitia Felton, the daughter of a 'Squire. The lady is betrothed to her cou sin, young Rushton, a lawyer. In order to prevent the match, and secure the lady for young Darrell, the old smuggler murders the'Squire. The wadding of the musket with which the old gentleman was shot, had been torn from a book called " God's Revenge , against Murder." After the deed the wadding is picked up, and it leads to the detection of the murderer. The smuggler, Giles Dar rell, was well played by Gann ; the heroine was Mrs. Selby. The piece, upon the whole, was well received, and given out for repetition amidst applause. Q UgEN' S. The comedy of Simpson and Co. was revived at this heuse last evening, with a strong and effective cast of cha racters—Mrs. Nesbitt as Mrs. Simpson, Mrs. Honey as • Mrs. Bromley, Miss Murray as Madame 7a Trappe, and Mr. Williams (from the English Opera-house) as Mr. Simpson. Mr. Wrench re-appeared here in his favourite characters of Nat, in Family Peculiarities, and Valentine Quill, in The Station-House, both of which are peculiarly adapted to display his comic talent, and elicited the warm est plaudits from a crowded and fashionable audience, amongst whom we noticed Lord Lyndhurst, Lord Ex mouth, Lord Anson, Lord Brudenell, Lady Paget, Hon. L. Stanhope, Captain Gordon, Major Hall, Sir L. Glynn, &c. Co L OSSEum.—This most elegant of our metropolitan entertainments re-opened for the winter season last night. The whole of the fittings-up are of the most splendid and gor geous nature, and the place altogether presents the most elegant. and attractive lounge in London. The principal entertainment, " Raphael's Dream," is merely a medium through which to present to the audience Ducrow's exqui site " Living Pictures." These are beautifully chaste and classic, ,particularly the Hermes, Sampson, and the Dying Gladiator. The " Courses," and the " Peacook Chariot," which, we understand, were a good deal calculated on .by the* proprietors, are extremely dull and stupid, but where there is so much else to admire we can overlook this. The stage is exceedingly pretty, and the scenery and machinery equal to those of any other theatre in London. Although a " first night," the whole went off with great smoothness, and, judging from the satisfaction which the entire per formance appeared to give to a pretty numerous audience, we should think the proprietors will find it a profitable spe culation. E. S. CAYLEY, Esq., M.P.—Last week, the Scar borough Reform Association presented an address to E. S. Cayley, Esq., in acknowledgement of the very efficient ser vices rendered by him to the cause of Reform, and to the Reformers of Scarborough in particulai, during the past session of Parliament. The address was signed by all the members of the Association, and was presented in the Old Globe Lodge Room. Mr. Cayley made a long and eloquent speech in reply, which elicited the warmest approbation of his auditors. THE MANDRILL.—When in 1831 death made such an hiatus in the brute world by selecting the only type of his race the , well known " Happy Jerry" as a mem ber of his antic court, the writer of his reminiscences pro phecyed that we " ne'er should look upon his like again ;" so thought not Mr. Cross, considering the revolutions that take place in the affairs both of men and baboons. A pair of these curious denizens of the Gold Coast, no doubt driven from their native wilds for some political offence, have been secured at Cape Lopez, in the Gulf of Guinea, and transmitted by an agent, J. Polito, to the Surrey Zoological Gardens, where they arrived on Tuesday last, and will give the crowning charm to this collection, as two such splendid animals have never been seen in this country. They have arrived in the finest condition ; the bright scarlet of the nose, and the furrowed mazarine blue of the cheek bones, which are distended to an immense size, contrasting strongly with the beautiful olive of the fur; and the orange coloured, pointed beard. They stand five feet in height, are of a most powerful and robust make, and exceedingly malicious and mischievous. They have not yet been in dulged with spirituous liquors, but have their pot of porter daily. They are called by the natives Choras, live in large bands, and are more than a match for all the other inha bitants of the forest. This is the Pupio Mainion of Geoffrey, and Cynocephalus Mainzon of Desmarest. REGISTRATION.—The Cheltenham Free Press, in calling attention to some proceedings connected with the local registration, says further reform is necessary to give the people a fair representation of their feelings and interests in the House of Commons. The party who were a few months ago so earnestly endeavouring to impress upon the public mind their anxiety to carry out the Reform Bill " in the spirit in which it was conceived," were then actually purchasing votes in the most barefaced manner, in order to create an undue influence in the representation. We need only point to two cases of manufactured votes, by the deci sion of Messrs. Peake and Whitmore fifteen persons are qualified to vote as freeholders of the county for a property producing 401. a-year, and which was purchased in January last from the Conservative fund, to whom the rent is paid by the pretended owners as their subscriptions; the hum bug is too apparent to need comment. One of the first duties of the people in the next Session will be to petition for a Reform of the Reform Bill. Mr. Francis William Grant, younger of Grant, hav ing attained his majority on Monday last, the tenantry and friends of the noble family of Grant celebrated the event in a manner worthy of the occasion. Numerous and re spectable parties of gentlemen dined at Elgin, Forres, Keith, Portsoy, Grantown, Rothes, and other places. Bon fires blazed on all the hills over the wide domains of Sea field and Grant, the mountain dew flowed in copious streams, and the ancient slogan-of the clan—" Stand fast, Craig , ellachie," was raised in a hundred straths.—Aberdeen Observer. Government have at length finally determined to garrison the Island of St. Helena with troops of the line. The non-commissioned officers and privates of the St. He lena corps, which compose its present garrison, will be ab sorbed into the regiments of infantry, the officers of these corps being placed on half-pay, from whence such indivi duals of them as may wish it will be brought on full pay into the regiments of infantry. By this arrangement, which does great credit to the Horse Guards, a great public saving of expense will be made in the reduction of the St. Helena corps. Captain Bridge, Royal Artillery, with the officers and non-commissioned officers of his company, pro ceed forthwith to St. Helena, where Isis company will be completed with gunners from the St. Helena corps of artillery. VIENNA, SEPT. 30.—The account of the elevation of Prince Metternich and Count Kollourat to higher titles, is not confirmed. I can, however, affirm that it came from a creditable source, and was in general circulation here. As it is also well known that the Emperor Francis had a siinilar plan several years ago, I thought 1 might mention it as a report without waiting for the official confirmation of it. Lieutenants Field Marshal the Prince of Saxe Coburg, and the Prince of Warsaw, set out a few days ago for Toplitz. It is probable that the plan for a new loan will not he carried into effect till the end of the year. Accounts from Constantinople of tho 16th, state that Lord Durham had sailed on the 14th for Odessa, on board the Pluto steam boat. M. de St. Cricq, the son of a Peer of France of the same name, has for a long time become a constant disturber of the frequenters of the Cafe Anglais, on the Italian Bou levard in Paris, by the violence of his conduct and the inde cency of his behaviour. He carried this obnoxious system so far as not to permit the house to be closed during the night, and on Thursday last, between three and four o'clock in the morning, not finding the doors open, he caused them to be forced, and imperiously ordered the waiters to get him some dinner. The proprietor of the Cafe at length lost his patience, and preferred a complaint to the Prefect de Police, who accordingly, at half-past eleven on the fol lowing morning, sent a file of soldiers, with a Commissary of Police, to apprehend this turbulent sprig of Nobility, whom they found, according to custom, established in one of the saloons on the ground floor of the Cafe.

Captain Hart Davies, in twenty years' service, does not recollect three cases of crime in the army not ori ginating in drunkenness, which certainly gives rise to ninety nine out of every hundred punishments. Nine out of ten of the American vessels frequenting the port of Liverpool, sail without ardent spirits on board, and the crews are per fectly satisfied with the change. CALAMITOUS FIRE AT ST. JOHN'S, NEWFOUNDLAND. The following is a letter received at Lloyd's from their agent at St. John's, Newfoundland, dated Sept. 22 :-- " On the night of Sunday the 20th inst. this tow.*l was again visited by fire, which destroyed about fifty tenement's in two hours. It was happily confined between the north side of Water-street and south side of Duckworth-street, and thcreb v prevented reaching any of the mercantile es t ablishments. The *Scene of devastation was in the western division of the town : with few exceptions the buildings consumed were unimportant. It is confidently stated to have been caused wholly by accident. " To W. Dobson, Esq., Secretary of Lloyd's." FURTHER PARTICULARS. (From the Newfoundland , Royal Gazette.) This devoted town has been visited with another calami tous fire. On Sunday evening last, between the hours of seven and eight o'clock, flames were observed bursting from the roof of a house oceupied by a person of the name of Crane, a cooper, rosiding .:early opposite the premises of Messrs. Rennie, Stuart, and Co. In a few minutes the de stroying element had extended to tn' adjoining houses, and soon afterwards the whole stack of bOdings fronting oil Water-street, and occupied by Mr. Matthew Pope, Mr. J. Cullen, Mr. Patrick Doyle, of the Globe Tavern, and others, with two houses on both sides of Waldegrave-street, were enveloped in flames. Happily, there was no wind, and by great exertions, and with much difficulty, the fire was pre vented from extending, in Water-street, to the houses occu pied by Egan and Kenny, Mr. Palk, and the houses of Mr. Fun chen, at the head of Waldegrave- street. The premises of Messrs. Rennie, Stuart, and Co., being built of stone, fortunately prevented the flames extending to the south-side of Water street. Such, however, was the great heat from the burning pile opposite, that the wooden ;voter-spouts on the premises were burnt away, and some of the lead on the roof melted. We cannot too highly praise the indefatigable endeavours made by the military, the fire companies, and inhabitants ge nerally, to arrest the progress of the flames, which, about ten o'clock, was accomplished, but not before sixty tenements were reduced to ashes ; and it is stated, at a rough calcula tion, from seventy to eighty families (mostly very poor people) thrown houseless, and many of them entirely destitute, on the charity of the world. One or two distressing accidents, we are sorry to say, occurred. A soldier, belonging to the Royal Veteran Companies, fell from the roof of a• house, and was so much injured, that he almost immediately expired. Also, another man, of the name of Norris, was run over by one of the fire engines, and very severely in jured. But for the early hour at which the fire broke out, it would doubtless have been far more extensive and calamitous in its effects. We understand that it originated from the accidental igniting by some children of a bed of shavings in the attic of Crane's house. We have not yet heard of any estimate of the loss of property sustained ; it must, however, be very considerable. We shall probably give further parti culars in our next. In the meantime we would urge the ne cessity of setting on foot a subscription for the relief of the sufferers, many of whom we learn are in the most deplorable situation, and with scarce an article of food or raiment left. GERMAN PAPERS. DRESDEN, OCT. 2.—Never did the beginning of a Leip sig fair excite such hopes as the present. Leipsig is full of buyers and sellers, and at the latter end of last month no more lodgers could be accommodated in the hotels of the first and second class. Many merchants from the East are in the town, several of them from parts from which it is long since any have come to the fair. These are from several eminent houses at Tiflis. Large quantities of woollen cloths and silks have already been sold. In addition to the blessings of peace, to' the continuance of which the appearance of many purchasers from distant countries may be attributed, Leipsig is evidently much indebted to our accession to the Prussian Tariff, which has removed impediments of -many kinds to our intercourse with the neighbouring countries. COPENHAGEN, OCT. is well known that the Ordinance relative to the assembling of the States does not expressly authorise or prohibit the publicity of the debates : yet it was generally taken for granted, and seemed to be deduceable from some of the clauses, that the doors of the Assembly would be shut to the public. It was however thought, that• our Journals would contain detailed accounts of the sittings, and thus afford a substitute for the publicity of the debates. But a Royal Rescript has just been published, in which all communication of the debates is forbidden. We are, therefore, limited for the present to the accounts which the Journal of the Assembly (das Stan desblatt) will give ; but as the composition of that Journal is confided to such men as Scow, Bang, and Ussing, the permission to publish the transactions of the Assembly is probably to be understood in its *widest sense. It is said that the Journal of the Estates will be Published every day. The address was voted yesterday, and as we hear, will be presented to the King to-morrow. . BERLIN, OCT. s.—His Imperial Highness, the Grand Duke Constantine, arrived on the 26th Sept., in the morn ing, at Dantzig, and immediately proceeded to Menfahrwas ser, where the Imperial fleet which is to_ take the Russian Guards on board has been lying at Austria since the 21st ult. On arriving there, his Imperial Highness went on board the Hercules steam-boat to return to Petersburgh. MUNICH, OCT. I.—The King will arrive here to-morrow Our October fetes begin on the 4th. We never had such a concourse of strangers here as at this moment ; there are 10,000 English, French and Italians ; visitors are flocking in from the other German States, and from our own pro vinces, so that by the commencement of the fetes we may reckon that there will be 40,000 guests here. Our Ma gistrates spare no expense to enhance the .splendour of the fete. STOCKHOLM, OCT. 2.—Official accounts say that their Majesties, on their return from Norway, will take the shortest road through Weemland. Count Adlersparre, one of the principal authors of the revolution in 1809, died lately. COPENHAGEN, OCT. s.—The journal called Dagen, gives to-day, out of tile first and second numbers of the Journal of the Estates, the report of the opening of the Assembly, aed the address of thanks which the Royal Commissioner had the honour to present to the King yesterday. VIENNA, SEPT, 30.—A private letter from Parma men tions a report that the Duke of Lucca, before he set out for Germany, again made proposals to the Duchess of Parma, to take on him the Government of the Duchy, se curing to her Majesty an anneal ipcome equal to the present revenue of the Duchy.—Hamburgh Papers, Oct. 9. BRUSSELS, OCT. 9.—Their Majesties returned yesterday evening at six o'clock from their visit to England. Twenty pictures belonging to the King's Collection have arrived from Claremont. The re-organization of the Universities of Ghent and Liege will be so reg - ulated that the lectures may open at the end of November, The Mercury of Ghent says that it will be decided in the Assembly of the Bishops now at Malines whether the Catholic University shall be fixed entirely or in part at Louvain. The Post-office at Antwerp has given f l Otice that in con sequence of the change in the regular passage of the steam boats between Antwerp and London, there will only one departure weekly for each port, viz., from Antv,:erP on Sunday at nine o'clock in the morning, and from Loi:don on Thursday at nine in the morning.
