A sum far more than equal to the value of the Policies is in vested in the public securities, in the names of the Trustees, so as to be at all times available. . . . At the last quinquennial meeting there was added a bonus to the Life Policies equal to twenty-five per cent. on the sums paid, and a bonus of five per cent. was added to the Shares in addition to the payment of the annual interest. he quinquennial meeting being only just past, a favourable orportunity now offers for the commencement of new Insu rances; parties now joining will be allowed to participate in the profits at the next division, as if they had been insured for the whole period. For the convenience of parties wishing to assure for a spe• eifie sum, without a prospective bonus, a new table, at lower rates, has been cab ulated, on which, as well as on the partici pating scale, ONE-HALF THE PRENHUM MAY RE MAIN ON INTEREST AT FIVE PER CENT.

ASSIZE INTELLIciENCE. OXFORD CIRCUIT —Gloucoter, April 5. HERON V. F ftrrwzr..r.. _ This case was a very singular one: Ali. Samuel Heron, the plaintiff, is a most respectable silk-throwster, at Chipping 23 Air. Franklin was the bro• the premises of a Mr. away. T I h B i resides at Cheltenham. Fretwell had fallen latterly into in (Ciiagmenptdcein„,mad m n sia A l l ie r t .. s Thomas ,and hadßbuelkeeniein the practice of receiving y Fretwell, the def ndant, pecuniary support from M r s. Bowhay, an aged lady of large pr( p rty, residing at Blockley, a n d a re l at i on o f the plaintiff, A Franklin, since dec eased, had been broken into, and consider ablel p n property carriedn they of Mrs. Bowhay. A reward of 103. was cffered for the discovery of the depr edato r , but without success. It was ge• nerally supposed that a person of the name of Smith, who soon after the robbery went to America,' was the offender ; but the Heron. transaction alter a time fell into oblivion. Mrs. Bowhay having, for some reason or other, withdrawn her contributions from Mr. Fretwell, that person became restive, and resorted to means calculated, as he thought, to bring her into a re nen al of her acts of generosity. lie threatened to inform against a person in whom this lady was supposed to take an interest, and, finding the attempt to obtain money fruitless, on the 28'h of Pecember last he swore an information of burglary against Mr. Heron, before Mr. Thomas Beale Cooper, one of the Justices of the Peace for Worcester. Oa the following day Mr. Heron was apprehended, and only released on finding sureties. After undergoing two examinations he was discharged. Air. GREAVES said, the jury were now called upon under the w. i• of inquiry, to assess the damages due to the plaintiff for the grievous injury he had sustained. Sergeant Lunnow followed, and the witnesses were about to be called, when Mr. Godson rose. Mr. Gonsox said—This is certainly a melancholy case. at once admit all the fat's stated by my Learned Friends. I a 'mit that the letters which have been read were written by the unfort' nate defendant, and therefore I will not trouble my Learned Friends to call any witnesses to prove what I so readily admit. The Learned Counsel then read that part i f the declare ion which recounted the injury which the plain • tiff hail sustained by the malicious and unfounded charge preferred against him by the defendant, and stated that the defendant, having admitted the truth of it by allowing judgment to go by default, he (Mr. Godson) now, in the presence of the Court, admitted that it was true, and that there was not the slightest ground fur the prosecution to which the plaintiff had been Subjected. He (Mr. God. son) was sire the Jury would be glad to hear one statement more, and ic was that the defendant was upwa'rds of 70 year, of age, and that he (.%lr. Godson) agreed with his Learned Friend (Sergeant Lunlow) in thinking that the only way of accounting fi r his extraordina-y conduct was on the g,ound of insanity, or perhaps, more properly speaking, of delusion. As to damages, a large sum should be given. - Such a sum as must convince the plaintiff that the Jury regarded his character as untainted, unsullied, perfectly good, moral, and just. ile (11r. Godson) was prepared to consent, and the arrangement had been sanctioned by his Learned Friends on the opposite side, that the verdict should be for 2001. A verdict of 2001. damages was then recorded for the plaintiff. NORFOLK ClRCUlT.—Norwich, April 6. CIVIL SlDE.—(Before Lord Chief Justice TINDAL.) THE QUEEN V. UTTIN6 AND ANNE BUNN. This was an indictment which charged that the two defen dants conspired together knowingly to accuse falsely one Dani I b sh o e u r r i i ff fig m an , res idi ng near'3 o ffi cer i n N or f o lk , and the Durrant with having committee a lat ely - capital assault upon the female defendant, Anne Bunn . Mr. Andrews and Mr 13yies conducted the p rosecu ti on; M r . Preneergast and Mr. Palmer the defe nce. The emale female was defendant, the Utti ng,wif e f a is l a a Yarmouth ; the former alone has pleaded to the indictment, and he, therefore, alone was i d tr_e . At the lait assizes one Daniel Durrant was indicted for having on tan several occa- i sions committed a rape on Anne Bunn, and, after an investi gation of many hours, he was acquitted upon one indict ment and found guilty upon the second. There were many circumstances which at the time rendered the story of tl.e prosecutrix very doubtful, but she persisted in A. : w:t,. 1., i great cunning and consistency, and it having been in some degree confirmed by other evidence, especially by that of Utting, the prosecution was but too successful, and the unfortunate man was sentenced to be transported for life, anti he is now at the hulks. At the trial she swore that the prisoner was the first and only nan who had been intimate with her, and she hid the scene at a period then very recent. Soon after the trial, however, she was observed to be enceinte, and it then becamee apparent that the story of her being intact at the time of her alleged intercourse with Durrant was false. Inquiries were immediately set on foot by the friends of the then prisoner, who had heretofore borne an irreproachable character, whic , ended in the preferring the present indictment, which vta , found a true bill, and removed into the Queen's Bench. The evidence taken yesterday and to-day was most volumi nous, and as it consisted almost entirely of conveisations with, and statements made by the two defendants, it i, impossible to give an account which would be intelligible without extending it to an into erablo and unpardonable length. The defendant, at the conclusi at of a very protracted in quiry, was found Guilty. Sentence will be passed in the Court of Q ueen ' s B enc h . CROWN COURT. —( Before Mr. Serjearit ArcriERLEY.) William Youalls, aged 17, was indicted for setting tire to a barn full of corn, the property of Daniel Watson, on the 29,,h of December. ... Air. O'Malley stated the case ; Mr. Gunning, at the reque.t of the Learned Judge, undertook the defence. The prosecutor is a farmer at East Harling, and on the night of the 29th of January he had a barn full of wheat and peas near his dwelling-house. He was at his brother's at eight o'clock in the evening of that day, and was calle I in a great hurry to go-!0 his premises, which he did, when he found the barn on fire. The prisoner was a poor boy living in the same place, and it appeared that in the morn. in of the same day he met one Ward in the street, and asked him how he liked Norwich Castle? to which Ward said not at all. Norwich Castle is the Norfolk county gaol, and Ward had been recently confined there. Upcn Ward's giving this answer, the prisoner replied" l'h be there soon; set somebody's place on fire before to-morrow night." The fire was first observed about eight o'clock in the evening, and five minutes before that time the prisoner was seen within a few yards of the barn. He was apprehended two hours after the tire, and stated to the policeman who had him in custody that he had gone to the barn between four and five in the afternoon; that he had then tone home and supped, and taken a box of lueifers, with which he and another boy had set fire to the straw in the barn. He made the like confession to the Magis trate,. before whom he was taken, to whom he also admitted having confessed to the policeman. The prisoner was one of the most active persons at the fire, endeavouring to extinguish it. The Jury found the prisoner Guilty.—Sentence was deferred. George Barber, aged 10, was indicted for murdering John Smith, a lad of eight years aid, by throwing him into the river Waveney on the 6th of last November. The stripling prisoner not being tall enough to be seen above the front of the dock, the door was opened and the boy placed outside the bar. He at first pleaded " Guilty," but at the suggestion of the Learned Judge he withdrew his plea, and consented to take his trial. It appearing that the only evidence against the prisoner were certain supposed confessions of his own, and that they were rendered inadmissible by reason of having been extorted after a threat to run him through the body with a red-hot iron unless he confessed, 'I he Learned JUDGE stopped the case in limine, and the pri soner was Acquitted. NORTH WALES ClRCUlT.—Chcater, April 6. CIVIL SlDE.—(Before 111 r. Justice COLTSIAN.) HICKSON V. WOOD. This was an action to recover compensation,in damages for defamat on of character. The plaintiff is a commercial travellei rasiding in Manchett;• ter, and the defendant is a grocer residing in Stockport, in this county: The facts of the case were briefly these : About the beginning of the present year the plaintiff, who was in the employ of a wholesale-tea dealer in Manchester, called upon the defendant to receive a small account, and to solicit orders; the defendant took up a bag containing a quantity of silver, and a purse containing gold, from which he paid the account to the plaintiff, and the latter left the 514. Shortly afterwards the purse was mi , sing, and the defendant pursued the plaintiff and charged him with stealing it. This he denied, on whicb he was searched, but the purse was not ff.und. Subsequently it was discovered on the counter in the place where the defen dant had placed it. The latter was afterwards applied to to retract the charge of felony which he had made, but he refused. . The Jury found for the plaintiff—Damages 401. CRIMINAL COURT, YESTERDAY. OLD COURT. George Coley, aged 38, was indicted for assaulting and wounding Richard Pratley, with intent to do him some grievous bodily harm. It appeared that the prosecutor had been playing at skittles, drinking at the house of the prisoner, who keeps tke sign of the Hoops at Kensington Gravel-pits. At the proper time the prisoner desired the prosecutor and his companions to leave the ground, and at the same time extinguished the lights, in order to compel them to leave off playing. Upon being pressed, however, he consented to allow them to finish' their game, and then again requested them to leave the house. The prosecutor refused to go, and some opprobrious language passed between them. The prisoner said he would fetch a policeman, and put the prosecutor where he was before ; he went out, but shortly returned, armed with a stick. He again desired the prosecutor to go away, and instantly struck him such a violent blow on the head as to knock him down, and stun him for some time, inflicting a wound two inches in length. It was admitted by the prosecutor, upon cross-exami nation, that he had been several times in prison for drunken ness and disorderly conduct, and also for assaults up n the police; he also admitted that he was a prize—fighter, and had been frequently mixed up in quarrels. Mr. Justice COLERIDGE having summed up, a •erdict of Guilty of an assault was returned. The Learned JUDGE sentenced the prisoner to six months' hard labour in the House of Correction. NETT' COURT. The cases to-day were uninteresting ; but, as a specimen of life in London, we may state that a policeman, in alluding to a gentleman who keeps a cab, added that be believed the gentle man's mother at the same time keeps a brothel, but then it is one of the highest. respectability. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. Yesterday afternoon, just at the close of this Court, Mr, Barnard Gregory, the proprietor and editor of the Satiris weekly newspaper, was brought up in custody of Gibbett, one of the police-constables, appointed to serve the processes of the Court, on a warrant that had been issued on an indictment found against him this morning at the Central Criminal Court, " fur unlawfully, wickedly, maliciously, and designed:y print ing, and publishing, and causing, and procuring to be printed and published, a certain wicked, scandalous, malicious, and obscene libel, against the peace, &c." An order of Court was i .vested in the warrant, requiring 48 hours' notice of bail to be given to the pro!ecuter, Mr. Lane, of No. 29, Argyle-street, Regent-street, s.ilicitor. Mr. Frederick William Fisher, clerk to Mr. Lane, identified the defendant as being the party named in the wai rant, and Mr. Gregory admitted that he believed, that he was the person named. After some delay Mr. Lane, who was in attendance, ex pressed him-elf satisfied with two gentlemen who offered them selves as bail for Mr. Gregory, viz.., Mr. Charles Shangster, of No. 307, Oxbrd street, poulterer, and Mr. Thomas Hughes, of No. 53. Great Coram street, Russell square, soliei - or, and waived the forty-eight hours' notice of bail. The a nount of bail received was. the defendant in 80/. and his sureties in' 401. each, for his appearance at the present sittings of the Court, either to tale his trial or traverse, and the required recognizances being entered into, Mr. Gregory, who had been arrested at his residence, No. 15, North Audler. street, Grosvenor-square, was set at liberty, and drove from the office in his carriage, accompanied by. several of his friends. It was stated that the indictment in question has been at the instance solely of Mr. Lane, who has taken up the matter on public grounds. The subject of the libel relates to her Majesty and Prince Albert, and appeared in the Satirist of the 30th of January last. WORSHIP-STREET. DISORDERLY PA U PERS. Sarah C,amplin, Amelia Jones, and Maiy Seamlin, three plump and imptidtnt looking young women, were charged with disorderly conduct in the Hackney Union workhouse, and with having violently assaulted William Hunter, one of the beadles. It appeared that in consequence of a long continued course of misconduct on the part of the prisoners, they were tak,n on tl.e preceding day before the Board of Guardians, and on bring admonished by the Chairman upon the impropriety of their behaviour, they began to abuse him and the other members of the Board in the most obscene and disgusting language, and positively refused to withdraw when ordered to do so. Hunter, the beadle, was desired to remove them, but the prisoners fell upon him, and struck him several severe blows ; and they also assailed some other officers, who went to his assistance, in a similar manner. Ali.. Pulley, the Vestry Clerk said he was instructed by the board to request that the Magistrate would make a severe ex ample of th,.. prisoners. In their defence the prisoners said their fare for two days had been nothing but bread ar.d potatoes, and having been threatened with a contit.uanca of the same meagre diet for two days longer, they felt exasperated at being subjected to such treatment. Mr. Pulley said that the prisoners had been placed on short allowance, in consequence of a complaint from the Chaplain that they had grossly misconducted themselves in chapel. Mr. BirgarrAst said it was evident, from the robust and healthy appearance of the prisoners, that they were much better fed and treated than many of the poor hard-working rate-payers who contributed towards their support, and theleast they could eo was to conduct themselves s ith decency and civility whilst they were maintained at the public expense. He should make an example of the'prisoners, in compliance with the wish of the Board; and, instead of dealing with them under the Act of Parliament applicable to ordinary cases of misconduct in the workhouse, he should fine them 40s. each, and in default of payment, commit them for two calendar months to the House of Correction. The prisoners, on hearing the decision, launched forth a volley of abuse against the Magistrate and the parish autho rities, which they kept up until they Were removed out of hear ing by the gaoler.

William Brownrigg, the master of the barque Premier, from Calcutta, now lying in the St. Katherine Docks, ap peared before Mr. Ballantyne, to answer a claim for wages, made by Bandoin Zule, a French seaman, for his services on the homeward voyage. Mr. Price, a solicitor, stated the seaman's ease. The com plainant signed articles at Calcutta, as able teaman, at 21. 11`,.5. per month, and there was a balance of 111. 4s due to him. During the voyage, the seaman was at the wbeel.in very rough weather, and was struck by the tiller on the shoulder and kn-cked down. The blow was a very severe one. The man was completely disabled, and was obliged to lay np for three oays. He afterwards did as much duty as he was able, but continued in much pain until he reached the Downs, when he was called aft by the Captain and asked if he could do his duty. The Frenchman replied that he was afraid he could not, on acc ,unt of the serious injury he received at the wheel, and, at the same time, said he had no objection to pay for a substitute to assist in taking the ship up to London. The Premier arrived here on the 27th of March, and upon the following day he went on board the Dreadnought hospital-ship, from which place he was dis charged convalescent five days a ft erwards. The wages in dis pute had been deducted for the loss of time and the hire of a substitute after the complainant had met with the injury. Mr. Price contended that the accident having occurred in the ser vice of the ship, and while the man was properly attending to h's duty, he was not bJund to pay for nny loss of time or the hire of a substitute, and cited many authorities to that effect. Captain Brownrigg said, all he had sought to deduct was -IL, which the Frenchman had agt eed to pay, or he should not have stopped any portion of his wages. Air. BA LLA N TIN E-1 cannot stop this man's wages fur an acci _ dent that occurred in the service of the ship at sea. He is entitled to his full wages, according to the agreement before me. The claim was ordered to be paid; with costs, which the Captain immediately complied with. INQUEST DEFERRED.—Yesterday* forenoon at nine o'clock an inquiry was opened before Mr. Wakley, and a jury, at the St. Marylebone workhouse, on the body of James Robin son, formerly a linendraper in an extensive way of business, residing at Pentonville, who was brought to the Marylebt na Infirmary on Sunday last in a speechless and dying state, under very extraordinary circumstances. The Coroner, considering that circumstances had arisen involving the conduct of the pol.ee, and raising a question as to the deceased's confinement i I the station-house for sixteen or seventeen hours without me rical aid being called in to ascertain whether deceased was really intoxicated when taken, er labouring under some de rangement of the brain, determined not to proceed with the inquiry until a post mortem examination of the body could be made, to ascertain the precise cause of death. The inquiry was therefore adjourned. FRENCH PLAYS, ST. JAMES'S THEATRE. Third Appearance. of Madlle. PLESSY, THIS EVENING, APRIL 8, The Performances will commence with LES FEES DE PARIS.

Sun Office, 112, Strand, April 8, 1842. tit g .S UM LONDON? FRIDAY MORNING. APRIL 8, 1842. The debate on Mr. T. DUNCO3IIIE'S motion last night I to discontinue the Standing Order, which precludes the people from petitioning against any tax proposed for the service of the year, demonstrates unequivocally that the country is to be tyrannized over by the strong govern- ment of the Tories. Sir ROBERT PEEL, it appears, had a full knowledge of the existence of the regulation, which other parties, because there had been no occasion to refer to it for many years, had forgotten. His atten tion was called to it by Mr. C. BULLER, after he had proposed his measure, when he signified his inten tion to enforce it, and refused to wait a reasonable time before he urged the House to agree to his resolutions. It was not his fault that they were not adopted before Easter. Secretly, therefore, did he propose his plans, aware of the rule of the House, which would allow of no petition against his tax after he had proposed it; and thus has he undeavoured, without allowing the people a chance of appealing, to fix on theni an in come tax, not only for this year, but for three years, for five years, or even for ever. Last night he resolutely maintained the Standing Order. It is a convenient instrument for tyranny. It was framed, as Mr. MACAULAY and Sir J. HANmEn, a Tory, observed, in troublesome times, and for a temporary purpose. Few of the people have ever heard oCit. Its very existence is a trap, in which any oppressor may catch the people. The general ignorance of its exist ence shows that it conies seldom into use. It is plainly obsolete, and ought to be expunged. This rule was originally framed to insure the supplies being voted, at a period immediately subsequent to the Revolution. half the nation was then opposed to the existing Government, and determined to embarrass it. Though Sir R. PEEL had little to say in favour of the rule, except that it is a Standing Order, and has long been a Standing Order, he would not allow it to be re pealed. Ilis majority stood by him, and he carried his point by 167 to 136, the minority being sufficiently large to ensure the repeal of the Standing,' Order at no distant day. To Mr. DUNCOMBE all the speakers on his side gave great and just praise. We know no Member who has more uniformly distinguished himself in the cause of the people. He is bold, honest, straightforward, and Judi , cious. Though his motion was lost, it has served even more than the income tax itself to exhibit the Tories in their true light of the determined opponents of public liberty. Now that the exposure is complete, it gives us great satisfaction to reflect that we have throughout opposed Sir ROBERT PEEL'S prOCe&iings as oppressive and // ~C dt'spotic. We have not—like many individuals like some contemporary journals, and like some Members of Parliament been seduced, by the promised advantages of the tariff, to accept as a boon, his whole financial scheme. From the very first we stigmatised his conduct as arbitrary and tricky. We have said over and over again that were his tariff' much better than it is, the mode of bring ing it forward; coupled with the income tax, consulting none of the great interests it meddles with, and forcing it through by a threat. of resignation, is so oppressive and unconstitutional, that it ought to be rejected. We have now the satisfaction of knowing that a great num ber of Members of the House of Commons are of. the same Opinion, as the speeches and votes of last night testify, and we hope from that House a conviction will spread through the country that Sir llonrarr PEEL is a plausible, but dishonest politician, who is undeserving Of public confidence. We have the satisfaction also of knowing that such all Opinion is fast gaining ground. The agriculturists of Ayr, as well as those of Lincolnshire have con demned his tariff and his income tax. In fact, his scheme pleases no class, and is supported by his own followers as a pis aller. It is a mere emanation of his own self will, in accordance with no public Opinion, and therefore as unfit as the crotchets of Mr. OWEN, or the (Feta of Mr. FEARGUS O'CONNOR, to become the law of the land. He has, however, a largo majority to support him, corotituting what is called a strong Government ; and he is able, greatly to the satisfaction of some of our friends, who are enamoured of such a Govern meat, to laugh to scorn all rest ect for public opinion, and plant his foot firmly on the neck, while his hand dives deep into the pocket, of the nation. His conduct in maintaining an absurd Standing Order, be cause it serves a tyrannical purpose, showing, as Mr. C. 13ULLER remarked, less respect for the public than 'was slymn l y Lord CASTLEREAGH, reveals at once his odious design.. He is resolved to make the strong Go vernment the master and tyrant of the nation. TRANSMISSION OF LETTERS.

Miss Adelaide Kemble gained another triumph last night in her performance of Amina in Bellini's opera of La Sonnam. b la, which was, for the first time, brought out in an English dress. Mr. Leffler appeared as Count Rudolph's, and Harrison as Elvin° ; in addition to whom, as singers, ware Miss Grant. Mrs. 11. Hughes, Mr. W. Harrison, Mr. G. Horncastle, and Mr. Wigan. No drama better than that of Sonnambula could have been chosen for the display of Miss Kemble's versatile • and commanding powers. It abounds wi+lll oppor unities Ix the tout eal expression of fear, hope, despair, and kiy, o n the part of the love-stricken Arnim, a character for which Mali bran and Grisi, on the Italian stage, have crea'ed a lasting po • pularity, to beat length equalled, we hope, by that which Miss Kemble will undoubtedly obtain for it on the English boards. A primary difficulty in the representation of Amina, is the ne cessity which exists for distinctly, yet delicately, marking the difference between her waking and sleeping singing. 'this necessity can be observed only by those who have a high fed ing for art, and when the observation has been justly and properly made, it does not follow as a matter of course that there is a corre-ponding ability to realise its de mands. Mi.s Kemble realises those demands She has made herself great in Norma and Elena (Thera, but she is still greater in La Sonnambula. The most difficult piece of execution in the play, which depends upon the mo ment that marks the difference between her waking and sleeping singing, was that which was represented with the greatest tact. Mr. Leffier's singing and acting were both excellent in their way, and Miss Grant accomplished her task, which was arduous, in a very satisfactory an 4 delightful manner. At the termination of the opera, Miss Kemble was called before the curtain to receive the congratulations of the audience, and her reception on this occasion, as well as throughout the opera, was enthusiastic. The house was com pletely filled with a delighted company. The opera is to be re. peated on Monday next, for the benefit of Alias Kemble. 't-~' e ee ' ~~~ ~~i~A-e SAT) STATE OF SYRIA. BETROUT, Ala aril 16.—0 n the 10th inst. 12zet Pasha re ceived a deputation from the inhabitants of Nlelak-at- el- Da mour, a large village of 250 houses, every one of which was burnt. They complained that Sheikh Nassif Abon Neked kept forcible possession of their land, that they had nothing to eat, and that if the mulberry trees were not cultivated, they could have no means of subsistence. Izzet Pacha replied, that he expected Omar Pacha to come from Dair-el-Kammer in a few days. and he would consult him on the subject. The people are fairly wearied out—the humbler classes from the actual pinch of poverty, and those who are in easier circumstances from want of confidence. They talk of nothing but the return of Ibrahim Pacha, or of the old Emir Beahir. On mature reflection I think the latter less probable, for the restoration of the former Emir Beshir would be a great step towards the restoration of order and the necessity fur calling in Mehemet Ali would be weakened. The greater the anarchy the stronger. is Mehemet Ali's case, and if his influence be as great in Constantinople as it is nos in Syria, he will guard against the return of the Emir Jloshir, except under his oan auspices. And what is to r inter Meier met Ali from being powerful at Constantinople? Never was he better off in money matters, and never was Turkey more poor, corrupt, and de graded. But can England allow him to return if he be under-• s ood with the Porte and Russia? " Ay, here's the rub." At all events the mere re-con.,uest of Syria, if the Frank Powers d , not prevent it, would be a dejeuner a /a fourchette for Ibra him Pacha. He could make a triumphal march from Gaza to the Taurus without ever firing a shot. On tl e I Ith the 1 hmnix steam-frigate arrived in 'our rays aid a halt from Constantinople, with despatches from Sir Strat fo - el Canning to Colonel Rose. The official trustee on the estate of the late eccentric Lady Hester Stanhope has terminated his labours. Her debts amounts to 600,000 piaste , s ; her assets to 240.000. The estate will thus pay about Bs. per pound sterling. Her affairs will be wound up by an English and a French merchant of Beyrout. Nedjib Pacha was by the last accounts at Mezareib with Shibly-el-Drian. Muste,pha Pacha remained a week at Na plouse to arrange the disputes of the Abd-el-Iledy family with the Naplousans. It is reported that the people of Tersous have risen against the Mohussil, and killed him in consequence of his having im posed the Ferdeh. 'I he p'ague has broken out at Zahle in consequence of the action of the spring weather on the numerous dead bodies which were imperfectly buried there after theDruee attack. By the last accounts front Palestine, the Bishop had gone down to Jaffa with Mr. Nicolayson, to look after his furniture and effects. A most melancholy accident had occurred there. 'Che t innate of the Hecate steam-frigate lost, on the Bth in stant., some water casks, which were washed ashore. On the following day some marines were sent in a boat to guard the casks, but the well-known treacherous surf of the Jaffa reef uptet the boat, and first lieutenant, the pilo', three marines, and two sailors, in all seven persons, were drowned. Turning from the south to the north of Syria, we find that the Turcomans of the plains between Aleppo aud the Bay of Scanderoon have revolted against the Government, and re fused to pay taxes. Assad Pacha had sent the irregular troops against them without effect, the Turcomans having tetind into the mountains. The agents of the French societies for the revolutionising the Christians of the East are actively at work, and various po pulations on the coat between this and Tripoli have been sup. ',lied with powder purchased at Cyprus. the greatest agita tion reigns at Tripoli, where the Christians talk of refusing to pay taxes, and the Mussulmans OA of massacring the Chris tians. The latter do not rely on their own force, but on their brethren in the valley of the Kadiha, and in the neighbourhood of Gibbet 13esherrai. If a religious war break ont, to which the Niuss.almans are direct parties, we may look for a bloody spring. The timely arrival of the former Emir Beshir, or his son Ameen, may avert all. The Government, aware of the gravity of the crisis, is about to draw a sanatory and political cordon around Peyrout, so as to cut of all communication between the mountain and the town. A suit, long pending between Sheik Hussein Suleyman and Hamid-el-Brgh, regarding the local Government of the Mo tualy district, between Sidon and Acre, which goes by the name of Belled I3vshara, has been decided bylzzet Pacha in favour of the firmer. It is also said that the Government in tends to strengthen itself against the embittered Christians by arming all the Motualies. S :ETS. Wheat. Barley.
