,F 'R (From the Pikte of Tuesday.l It is remarkable that none of the J ournals have mentioned RH event which happened near Paris, and the Consequences of m hich have been serious. Vie following are the particulars :—On Thurs 41ay last the English workmen, to the number of 50, at the iron foundry of Mr. Wilson, at Charen fton, armed themselves with sticks, and ranging through the commune of Carriers, attacked and , d all the peaceable inhah,itants. It is said that a boatman, who was returning home tran quilly, was attacked by one of these madmen, and received a severe wound in his breast from a knife. The.inhabitants, forced to repel force by force, then threw themselves upon the English, and several were wounded ; one inhabitant had his arm broken, and we are assured that even women and children were so ill treated as to have their lives endangered. They have been :admitted to the hospital of Charenton. The Authorities of Paris instantly sent a corps of ge'nd'armerie to Charenton, whoM the inhabitants were compelled to lodge. BAYONNE, APRIL 13.—1 t will be recollected that an Englishman, Aide•de-Canlp ,to vas made :prisoner with his General, and con ducted -to the prisons at Madrid. The British Cabinet - having claimed hint, he has been releas ed, and-passed through this place yesterday,hav in : with hiin a pigeon which took refuge in his prison. - - We hear from Madrid that the King has-ar rived at Toledo.

( From the Calcutta Monthly Journal, Oct. 23.) EXPEDITION TO - NAAF RIVER. We stated a few days ago, that the communi cation bervieen Colonel Chapland's and Brigadier Popham's detachments was. interrupted, and that fears were entertained for the safety of was., these small parties. In this we were in some degree mistaken it appears ; the communication between theie officers indeed is stopped, as the Burmha forces have got between these two posts; but there is no cause for any alann as to their being cut off, since Colonel Chapland was at Chitta gong, and Brigadier Popham is at Dacca ; and if attacke d could retreat further into the Company's territories. The Burmhas hiving conqUered the Assamese. and talten their ca pital, have got, as stated already, partially bet Ween the two places, Chittagong and Dacca; and apprehensions are enter tained of their taking Islamabad, which is very near the former. If they succeed in this, and there is little hope of their failure, (as there are only fire companies of the 13th N. I. to . protect all that district,) they will then effectually stop communica tion by land with the detachment at Chittagong, and place it in great peril. We understand that Colonel McCreagh, of the 13th King's, is to be sent in command of the expedition to the Naaf river.— This able and experienced officer highly distinguished himself in Europe, and is understood, as a natural consequence of his skill and gallantry, to have stood high in the favour of the Noble Duke under whom he served. All these preparations evince a determination to repress at once, and effectually, the encroachment of the Burruhas, and to convince them by a les son of experience they can never forget, of the folly and dan ger of provoking a power that can at any time overwhelm them. It was reported yesterday, that another ship was taken up for the expedition to carry an augmentation of the force already under order to sail, of 300 men ; but we Imirn that instead of this, the fact is, that a ship and a brig are taken tip - to proceed direct to Rangoon, for the purpose of rescuing the European in habitants there, from the anticipated vengeance of the Burm has, as suggested by us a few days ago. A rumour was in deed prevalent, that the monsters had actually beheaded them already ; but we merely state it, in order t. express our convic tion that it is utterly unfound( d. The only recent arrival from Rangoon, is that of two boats by the inland navigation, and whatever intelligence the people on these boats may otherwise have brought, it is certain they have communicated nothing of so dreadful a character; and it is equally certain, that if such a shocking event had occurred, they must have known it. We have been informed, however, that troops have been ordered from Barrackpore, to the scene of intended ° l t e r a tions by the inland routes, and that the Steam-boat was dispatched on Monday, by the outside passage, we believe, and not by tt+e Sunderbunds, as was rumoured yesterday. Captain Cheape of the Engineers, and the Master-Attendant of Chittagong, arc the only passengers by her. In the mean time it is to be arA, that before the reinforcement can reach its destination, Our widely extended south-eastern frontier, reaching, from Chitta gong in the south, to Assam in the north, will be devastated by the numerous though undisciplined army of the Burrnhas, al ready in considerable force there ; and which led on by the hope of plunder, and confiding in the security afforded by the weakness of our detachments, is doubtless augmenting every day. A DESPERATE CIiARACTEIt.—On Monday night last (12th inst.) Mr. PoNsbrinY, Chief Constable, with a par.v of his police, succeeded in apprehending that notorious rufFa Lynch, nicknamed Cahy, who some time since desper:th ',- wounded one of the police with a large knife, upon his app: ,' - bending him at Carrigbeg. When taken he ' had in his po' sion the carbine of which he then robbed the policeman, wiliela was primed and loaded, and in his pocket a quantity of cart ridges made up ready for use. Behind where he was sitting was also a case of pistols, primed and loaded. In the house a fellow named Paddy Lynch, of whpm the police had got a de scription as being a companion of Cahy, was also appre hended • in his pocket was a quantity of gunpowder and wine very good flints. Upon searching them more closely the police discovered two handkerchiefs and some money, .which led to a suspicion that a robbery had been recently conimited by diem. Upon inquiry on Tuesday morning, it was ascertained that a young woman in the service of the Marquis of Waterford ha I been robbed on Monday afternoon, on her way to Curraghmore. Upon being sent for she immediately identified both the pri soners, from among several people, as the two who robbed far, Cahy holding the carbine, and the other, Paddy Lynch, the two pistols over her. They were yesterday conveyed to oyr c aunty gaol, under a strong escort of Mr. Ponsonby's police. The ap prehension of these two desperate characters is most fortunate for the country, and reflects great credit on Mr. PonsoabY , whose activity and decision upon the occasion were highly praise worthy.—( IVaterford Chronicle. ) LEAD-Moi4F.Y.—Yesterday was brought up to Worship-street Office, John Hayden, alias Harris, alias Hall, who kept a cheesemonger's sh op in W heeler-street, Spitallields, and who was some days past committed for feloniously passing upon Mr. Tipping, a respectable wholesale cheesernonger in High-street, Borough, eighteen cartridges of lead money for five shillings each as penny-pie<es. Mr. Twyferd wished to ascertain whether, any other charge of a similar nature was to be preferred againit him or not. Mr. Harmer attended fee the prisoner; and no other person appearing against him, be WO recommitted upon the charge of .Mr. Tipping. , TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. STR.----Finding that the sanction of the Legis lature to the demolition of the Precinct and Church of St. Katherine, near the Tower, is sought, I take leave to send you a few extracts from Ducarell's nistory, which I have no doubt wiU be interestinz to your Readers, and remain your very obedient servant, AN ANTIQUARIAN. " Tile present Hospital, and its Collegiate Church, or Free Chapel, are situated on the cast side of the Tower of London; and upon the north bank of the River Thames, within the County of Middlesex. " It appears to have existed ever since the year 1273, and may therefore be considered as the oldest it community in this kingdom, the three following Colleges only excepted : viz. Peter House, College, Cambridge, 1257 ; Merton College, Oxford, 1261; and Baliol College, Oxford, 1268 : but if the original Hospital, founded by Queen Matilda in 1148, had not been dissolved, to make room for the present one, it would have been more ancient than either of them. " This Collegiate Church or Free Chapel, highly deserves the attention of the curious ; but, being situated in an obscure corner, had been much overlooked until the year 1778, when almost every thing within it was made entirely new, not only at a very large expence, but in a judicious and admirable Gothic style. " On entering into the church, the spectator is immediately astonished at the full sight of the large east window, which (by being free from the gloomy incumbrance of heavy stone-work) throws such a flood of light upon every part of this venerable structure, as necessarily and at once gives the eye a delightful exhibition of perhaps as much genuine Gothic simplicity as is anywhere to be met with,—indeed an uniform simplicity is the superlative excellence which prevails through this whole church, and prevents the eye, in a peculiar manner, from being offend ed at any one part of it. " This Hospital consists at present, as it originally did, of a Master,' three Brothers, (priests) and three Sisters, (single women), besides ten poor Betleswomen, usually nominated by the Master, 'and some other Officers. " The Queens Consorts of England are by law the perpetual Patronesses, this Hospital being considered as part of their dowry." a Sir Herbert Taylor at present fills the office.
