ON SATURDAY, the 13th instant, pursuant to public Notice, a Meeting was held at the Guildhall, Norwich, CHARLES TURNER, Esq., Mayor, in the Chair, For the purpose of considering the expediency of CONNECT ING NORWICH and YARMOUTH with LONDON, via CAMBRIDGE and BISHOP'S STORTFORD, as a branch of that important undertaking. At the time appointed a great body of the opulent and respectable inhabitants of this city and county being assembled, the Mayor, Charles Turner, Esq., was called to the Chair. R. Kerrison, Esq., commenced the proceedings by reading the requisition, when the Mayor rose, and distinctly stated the object of the Meeting, and requested N. W. Cundy, Esq., the engineer and projector of this great design, to explain the measure. This gentleman proceeded to address the Meeting on the practicability, utility, and beneficial consequences that would result from the pro posed Railroad. He stated that within the districts comprising the extent of Railroad' proposed to be occupied and connected there existed a population of 3,552,500 people, which was amply sufficient to prove the extent of employment, by goods and passengers, that would necessarily result from such a plan of transit. He gave an ample and clear detail of the various Railways already constructed, and of the progressive increase of traffic thereon affording very pro-. fitable returns to the Shareholders. He spoke of the Midland, the Southern, the Eastern, and Western Railroads, and of the disposi tion of all classes on those lines to adopt such mode of transit, and forcibly urged on the Meeting the necessity of purluing an inclina tion so generally manifested. As the formation of Railways in other parts of the ceuntry, in regard to the rapid transit of their produce and manufactures, would give them such a decided advan tage, that, without an equal mode of conveyance, no efforts could secure a fair share of trade and benefit. He fully proved the im portance of the plan to the counties of Norfolk, Suffolk, &c., and the superiority of transporting cattle by vehicles over the present method of driving, which occasioned a great reduction in their value, and gave an interesting account of the vast number of oxen, sheep, &c.. that weekly arrive in the metropolis from those coun ties. He informed the Meeting that in consequence of some im portant information relative to the trade of Yarmouth, that it would be highly advantageous to extend the communication to that port, which would complete the line with the German Ocean. He had been supplied with correct data, which enabled him to demonstrate that this determination would not only be important to the Com pany in a pecuniary way, but that it would be a great benefit to the population of Yarmouth, and furnish an immense supply of the finest fish to the London market, and through the country. It would connect that town with the northern districts, and with the north of Europe in particular; and probably the Post-office packets would convey the mails to Hamburg, Gottenburg, &c., from that port. Mr. Cundy concluded his extended and forcible address, amidst the applause of the audience. Colonel Harvey immediately rose and commented on the intelli gent address of Mr. Cundy, and eulogised the exposition. He ad mitted that when he came to the meeting he was prejudiced and opposed to the plan; but he avowed his conviction, and would exert himself to promote its success; that it was calculated to be nefit the landholders and cultivators, and to increase the demand for manual labour, and give very beneficial circulation to that wealth that was now locked up and unemployed. Colonel Harvey then moved the following resolution : Resolved,—" That the explanation given to the Meeting by Mr. Cundy, the engineer, of the practicability and utility of the plan submitted by him, for the formation of the proposed Railway, and of the great advantages it would afford, is very satisfactory, and highly deserves public support." James Bennet, Esq. (after proposing some questions to Mr. Cundy, which were most satisfactorily answered), seconded the resolution. Carried unanimously. Samuel Bignold, Esq., Deputy Mayor, moved the second reso lution. . ' Resolved,—" That a local and open Committee be appointed to examine into, and report to a future general meeting their opinion on the most eligible plan that should be adopted for the establish ment of a Railroad, the propriety of giving by such means an im petus to the commerce and manufactures of the City of Norwich being obvious." A. A. H. Beckwith, Esq., Chamberlain, seconded the resolu tion, and with great energy urged the support of the undertaking, which the Learned Gentleman contended would not only benefit _ _ the shareholders, but was in a high degree calculated to - increase the interest of all parties in the vicinity of the line, engaged in trade or commerce. The good of the city, said the Learned Gen tleman, ought to influence our conduct and incite us to exertion to promote its welfare. The City of Norwich had hitherto been in an inert state, but he rejoiced to perceive a reviving spirit, which he hoped to see manifested on this occasion. He concluded by expressing his satisfaction at the statement submitted to the meet ing by Mr. Cundy. Carried unanimously. The Committee was appointed immediately of the following wealthy and respectable gentlemen of the city : Charles Turner, Esq., Mayor J. Thompson, Esq. Samuel Bignold, Esq., Deputy Mayor I. Wright, Esq. Alderman Marshall, Sheriff Elect I'. Steward, Esq. A. A. H. Beckwith, Esq., Chamber- H. Martineau, Esq. lain NV. Freeman, Esq. John Skipper, Esq., Speaker of the Robert Wortley, Esq. City il. Chamberlain, Esq. Colonel Harvey J. At hew, Esq., and E. T. Booth, Esq. P. Barnes, Esq., High Constable, J. W. Robberts, Esq. with power to add to their number H. Willett, Esq. It was finally resolved,—" That the thanks of this Meeting be given to N. W. Cundy, Esq., for the very able manner in which he has introduced the subject, and for his full and clear explanation of the benefits likely to accrue to the public at large." Moved, seconded, and carried unanimously, as also the thanks of the Meeting to the Mayor for his urbanity, impartiality, and judi cious conduct in the Chair. We have attended many public Meetings, but never witnessed more order, decorum, unanimity, nor a greater desire evinced to promote the object. A general opinion prevailed that the Railway was calculated to promote the interest of the city, adjacent towns, and the public at large. We confide in the respectability, influence, and talent of the above Committee, who have so spiritedly offered their co-ope ration and powerful assistance in support of a plan that must secure to Norwich a return to her former importance as a manufacturing city. Norwich, Sept. 13 Women are far less apt to get bald than men, neither does their hair become so soon grey. I defy any physiologist to give a rational explanation of these facts.—Book of Apho risnzs. On Tuesday evening a report was spread in the vil lage of Heeley, that a person of the name of Allott had mur dered Martha Hardwicke, with whom he lived as farming-man. It appeared from the evidence taken before the inquest on Wednesday evening, that Allott, and a milk-boy in deceased's employ, had gone to Sheffield in the morning to take out a warrant against his sister for stealing a sovereign. The boy, Wolstenholme, remained with Allott till three o'clock in the wa i r t d r s ess l afternoon at which time the latter was tipsy, when he ret urned to Heel e y, f or th e purpose of taking the milk to Sheffield, which gen era lly t oo k him about two hours. He left home mistres s 20 past 5, and returned soon after 7. He found his played s well a n d h ear ty ; t oo k th e co ws to the field ; after with some companions, and when he went home, about L 8, found no one i n th e house. On looking into the parlour t adjoining th e h ouse , h e saw Allott lifting Mrs. Hardwick e almost r dead on to th e b e d. When he came first into the hou se , he observed a good d e al of blood on the floor wiped up. The squab o fire-place, s-place, which appeared to be partly of i , b w e -as also covered with blood, on which lay a broken comb. had all been thrown about. Th e e hairs and things in the house ionck were, on the head ?" To which re first words Allott said to Wolstenholme T et o our rwh mistressen he camebe kn " What hast thou been doing o let Wolstenholme replied, he had left her well and h he tookthe cows to the field. Allott's gaiters, breeches,earty when waist coat, and hat, were al l covered wit h blood. The :oy. darednot ask Allott why his clo thes were all blood. Allott after wards said it was done in , handling her. She was dreadfully mutilated, having her left arm broken, three ribs broken, both her eyes bruised and much swollen, several stabs in the breast ; altogether presenting one of the most appalling spectacles ever beheld. About 8 o'clock cries were heard as coming from Hardwicke's house, " He is murdering me, help me 1" but as this was no uncommon circumstance, the parties being known to quarrel, the neighbours took no notice of it. The inquest was adjourned till Thursday. • FOREIGN OFFICE, SEPT. 16, 1834. The Marquis de Miraflores, Envoy Extraordinary and Mi n i s t er Plenipotentiary of her Majesty the Q ueen of Spain at this C our t, has communicated to Viscount Palmerston, his Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, a Decree of her Majesty the Queen Regent of Spain, in the name of her Catholic M a j es t y Donna Isabella 11., of which the following is a translation:— ROYAL DECREE. Considering that the secur and tranquillity of these kingdoms require that vigorous measures should be taken to prevent the spirit of party or sordid interest from affording nourishment to the civil war which unhappily desolates certain provinces ; being desirous to prevent any attempts to land arms, military assistance, or stores, in the ports or on the coasts of the north of Spain, for the use of Spaniards in rebellion ; and, with a view to self-defence, looking rather to the prevention of evil than to its subsequent remedy ; have ordained as follows, in the name of my august Daughter, Donna Isabella 11., and with the advice of my Council of Ministers: 1. Besides the general prohibition directed by the laws and re gulations of the Custom-house against the introduction and land ing of arms, ammunition, or warlike stores, another more special and rigorous prohibition shall be enforced for that portion of the coast included between Cape Finisterre and the Mouth of the Bi dassoa. 2. The ships of the royal navy, the guarda costas, and other Spanish vessels, as likewise the fortified places, forts, and land bat teries, shall oppose by force the landing of the said articles, as be ing designed for keeping up the civil war in these kingdoms. 3. Every vessel that shall be found laden with arms, warlike stores, ammunition, or other articles contraband of war, provided that such vessel shall approach the said coast within six miles, mani festing, by that act alone, her intention and design to 'disembark the above-mentioned articles, shall be considered to be suspected of the said hostile intention, and shall be detained, and the arms, and warlike stores which she carries shall be embargoed until a further decision shall be adopted, according to the importance and the cir cumstances of the case. 4. My Secretary of State shall forthwith communicate this Decree to the Ambassadors, Ministers, and Diplomatic and Con sular Agents of my august Daughter in foreign countries, in order that sufficient publicity being given to these regulations, those who may infringe them may not be able to plead ignorance. b. The other Secretaries of State in their several Departments shall issue the most precise orders and adopt the proper measures, in order that this my Royal Decree may have immediate and full effect. This you shall understand, and you shall take the necessary steps for its accomplishment. (S;gned by the Royal Hand.) St. Ildefonso, Aug. 21, 1834.

BOULOGNE-SUR-MER, SEPT. 12.—A shocking event occurred near the Column on Sunday, in the assassina tion of an unfortunate Custom-house officer, na med Trudin, who was on duty near the Column of Boulogne, when he saw two persons carrying large bundles, which afterwards proved to be smuggled tobacco. Trudin insisted on knowing what the parcels contained in the name of the law, when one of the villains instantly discharged a pistol, and shot the ill-fated douanier through the body. The poor fellow only survived his wound three hours. In consequence of information com municated by Trudin, a man named Chocon was arrested. In his possession were found two pistols, one of which had been recently discharged.—Between four and five o'clock on Wed nesday afternoon, the governess of the children of a gentle man named Grieve took her agves their accustomed walk on the cliffs beyond the Bains. The children were two boys and three girls, from fourteen to five years of age. They descended the cliffs, and were proceeding - a l ong th e b eac h, the young ladies being rather en avant with th e e ld est b oy , the " gover nante" following with the youn ges t b oy , holding him by t he hand, when instantaneously immense piece of rock fell from the hill and struck the ill-fated i n f an t, b ur yi n g him under the stones, and which also s t ruc k t h e governess, w h o , how ever, sustained no further injury th an h av i ng h er toes seriously bruised. The three girls received very severe contusions by the falling stones, and the eldest boy was struck a dreadful blow on the head. The shrieks of the children attracted the attention of several persons, and the unfortunate infant was with difficulty taken from beneath the mass of rock, and con veyed to the house of the Humane Society; but the medical assistance, which was instantly rendered, was of no avail , the child was dead ; the rock had crushed it s chest, and dislocated one arm and leg. Mr. Grieve, informed of the sad catastro phe, hastened to the spot, and his lady made a fruitless effort to follow, but her strength failed, and she was compelled to remain at home in a dreadful state of agitation. Mr. Grieve, who had been absent some weeks in London, arrived only the same morning from England. He crossed from Dover in an open boat with some friends, congratulating himself on causing his family an agreeable surprise, as he was not expected. The accident has created a very general feeling of commiseration i for the family. Lord Holland is indisposed at Holland-house, Kensington. 'The Lord Chancellor is expected to arrive at Brougham hall, Westmoreland, this day from Edinburgh. The Earl of Mulgrave has arrived at the residence of the Duke of Devonshire, Chatworth, Derbyshire, on a visit to his Grace. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. DONCASTER, MONDAY ErENINa. Since our last communication the town has been kept in a constant bustle by the arrival of visitors of all ranks, and from all quarters. Lodgings have let well, the weather is beauti ful, and everything indicates a good meeting. A great num ber of horses were out at exercise this morning, and more than a thousand persons were on the ground to see them gallop ; Plenipo wont beautifully, and obtained general admiration ; General Chasse deservedly attracted a good deal of notice ; with the exception of the favourite he was the smartest-look ing horse on the course, goes well, is of a good size, and if not overpaced, will certainly be in the front rank, all his races having proved him to be both stout and honest. The new betting rooms are opened in the same splendid stile as formerly ; several hundred subscribers have already entered their names, and it is continually crowded, not for the purpose of betting on it but of talking about the St. Leger, which is looked upon as so great a certainty that speculators wish it was over, that they may begin on the Derby. The arrangements on the course, and in the town, for the protection and convenience of the visitors, are liberal, judi cious, and complete ; a new town police has been organised on the same plan as the metropolitan—it is a very useful and conspicuous corps, with an uniform of so original a character, that we cannot avoid describing it only to furnish a pattern— to be avoided :—The coat is of dark blue, with red cuffs, and a stand-up collar fancifully divided into compartments of red and blue, on the blue squares being represented in white a desperate-looking lion rampant, with a flag in his dexter paw, which same device is, in some favoured instances, depicted on the coat sleeve in flaming red ; the trowsers are white, and the hat low-crowned, broad-brimmed, and glazed with a broad white band round it—here, too, we have the " Lion of Don caster" staring us in the face " flag in hand." The dress is precisely that of a horse-marine, and may do very well to keep the thieves in awe, but will place the wearers in no small jeopardy on the sth of November. We have no fault to find with any thing beyond the dress, for the men have been admi rably drilled by Messrs. Timbs and Leadbitter, and are very serviceable. , The company on the course to-day was fashionable and nu merous ; the weather extremely beautiful ; and the sport excel lent. Time will not permit of our giving a list of the arrivals, but it shall be furnished in our next. We subjoin an account of the running : The Fitzwilliam Stakes of 10 sovs. each, and 20 sovs. added by the Corporation ; three yrs. 7st. 51b. ; 4 yrs., Bst. 51b. ; 5 yrs. Bst. 121 b. ; 6 yrs. and aged, 9st. Mile and a half. Mr. Orde's Tomboy, by Jerry, 5 yrs Mr. Ridsda:le's Marcellina, by Lottery 2 Mr. S.

Tomboy made running, followed by Goldbeater to the Red house, where Marcellina took the second place : beyond this she could not get, as the horse kept his lead to the end, and won very easy by about two lengths ; ridden by Johnson, the filly by Nicholson, and Goldbeater by Lye. The Champagne Stal - es of 50 sovs. each, h. ft. ; for two yrs. old colts, Bst. 51b. ; and fillies, Bst. 31b. The winner to give six dozen of Champagne to the Racing Club. Red House in. 29 subs.

Hectic, by Sultan—Flush ; Mr. Skipsey's br. f. Violante, by Waverley—Castrellina. Besides, Mr. Powlett's c. by Langar—Giovanni's dam, came to the post, and turned round with the intentioo of starting, but, through the rider misunderstanding the directions of the starter, did not get off till the others were eighty or a hundred yards away, when he prudently abstained from any attempt to overtake them. We believe he will be considered as having started.—The betting was 3 to 1 agst. The Magnate (taken), 3 to 1 agst. Coriolanus (takers), 6 to 1 agst. Curtius, 7 to 1 agst. Cyrus, and Bto 1 agst. Gin. Without a single false start, they got off pretty well together, Coriolanus lying inside, with a lead of about a neck ; Gin next him ; then Mr. Houlds worth's two, and Nymphalin; the others well up. There was no change of importance till they reached the grand stand, where Coriolanus came two lengths in advance of the lot. Nymphalin here took the second place, but could not near reach the colt, who won very easy by at least a length and half. In the run from the stand, Curtius was enabled to get within half a length of the second, there being about the same between him and the Gin colt. Behind him were The Mag nate, Hectic, and Flush. Cyrus was e i g hth, Mi ss B e ll n i nt h, and Calista tenth. Vialante struck the heels of Curtius near the distance, and fell, but hurt neither herself or her jockey. The winner was purchased from the King's stud, and is a racing like colt, with very powerful limbs. He is of a running sort, his dam being out of Cressida, the dam of Priam. On being told how the horse was christened, a yokel inquired why he was called Coriolanus. Th e answer was, " B ecause h e ' s a rum -un" (Roman). Mr. Ridsdale has a formidable lot for the next Derby, viz. Luck's-All, winner of the Two-year-old Stakes at the York spring Meeting ; Marches e co l t , w h o ran Pil gr i m to a h ea d at the August Meeting; Coriolanu s , and another.

Spume, and 5 to 1 agst. any other. Omnibus made running, followed by Isabella to the turn, where Miss Wilfred went in front ; at the distance Revelry was second, but at the stand was in difficulty, and it seemed impos sible that she could get up. However, Conolly persevered, and his mare, seconding his efforts, made a dying effort in the last two strides; and finished it a dead heat. In the second heat she had it all her own way, and won in a canter.—Betting even, and 6 to 5 on the loser. Pour-Year-01d Stakes of 100 sous. each, h. ft. 4 miles.

On Monday last a public dinner was given to the members for the borough of Birmingham, Thomas Attwood, Esq., and Joshua Scholefield, Esq., in Beardsworth's Repository. Pre parations, on the most extensive scale, were made for this en tertainment, and the day was looked forward to with great interest. The tickets, which were issued at a moderate price, were eagerly purchased, and by Saturday last about 3,000 were sold. After the Chairman, Mr. G. EDMONDS, had proposed " The King and the People," he introduced, with an appropriate speech, " The health of the Members." Mr. SCHOLEFIELD, in returning thanks, took an opportunity of alluding to the vote which he had given with respect to the Poor Law Bill, in these terms :—To his dying hour it would be a satisfaction to him to know that he had opposed it— ( Loud applause)—and would also be a satisfaction to his chil dren after his death to know, that the name of their father could not be pointed out in the majorities which carried that Bill.—( Applause.) It was impossible to look at that law without abhorrence. It was a law which went to deprive the poor of their most sacred and inalienable rights.—( Cheers.) As to the clause relating to bastardy, he should say but little. It was an un-English clause. The mind of Englishmen re volted at it, and justly so ; for base, indeed, would be the man who would wish to throw the whole of the burden upon the woman. It had been said by many that the law of Elizabeth had given the poor greater claims than those possessed by the poor of any other country. He admitted it, and in place of viewing it as an argument against the law, he always viewed the privileges which it extended as being in favour of it, and calculated to reflect the greatest credit upon the country. It was clear why they did not interfere with the pension list. Their own families were living upon it, and hence it could not be touched. Why, he would ask, did they not put on a pro perty tax ?—( Applause.) Why not make the rich pay for the support of the poor ? Was it not better that the rich should pay, who could afford to pay, rather than the poor should famish ? Mr. T. ATTSA'OOD, in returning thanks, entered at great length into his Parliamentary conduct. In the course of his address he said, " I will not congratulate you too much on the Bill of Reform thus obtained, because I know it has disappointed your expectations and mine.--( Loud cheers.) It has given us a House of Commons but little better, lam sorry to acknow ledge, than the old concern. Some few good men, it is most true, there are in Parliament, but it is with deep and bitter regret that I acknowledge that the majorities have generally been as servile and selfish as in former Houses. ( Hear, hear. ) When I entered Parliament I expected to meet bands of patriots animated with the same interests as the people, feel ing for theit wrongs and oppressions, and determined to re dress and relieve them. I almost regretted that I had had a hand in the Reform, when I saw troops of sycophants and time-servers who seemed only anxious to regard their own selfish interests, and to destroy the very system of liberty and Reform from which they themselves had drawn their existence. ( Shame, shame). These gentlemen, you may well believe, were not very partial to me ; they looked upon me in some light as a cow looks upon another cow's calf—as a stranger out of my place—a mere Birmingham tradesman, very dis agreeable in their eyes. The Hon. Gentleman then went on to speak of the Poor Law Bill, which be designated to be " an atrocious measure ;" and, after noticing other proceed ings in Parliament, he alluded to the change made in the Cabinet in these terms :—" The Cabinet has been lately much improved ; such men as Mr. Ellice, Mr. Spring Rice, Sir John Hobhouse, Lord Duncannon, and Mr. Abercromby, are very different men from Stanley and Graham. They have never forfeited any pledges to the people—they understand the situation of the people—they have every interest and every inducement to excite them to do justice to the people. I enterta'n, therefore, great hopes that a better day is about to dawn upon our country."—( Cheers. ) An address of a flattering description from the Friendly So cieties of Birmingham was afterwards presented to the two Hon. Gentlemen. In the course of the evening the following toast was given : " Unfortunate and heroic Poland—May the day be not dis tant when the honour and interest of England will be vindi cated in the complete restoration of Polish liberty and inde pendence." General UMINSKI replied with great energy to this toast in the French language, of a portion of which the following is a translation :—" Permit me, although a stranger to the Eng lish language, to yield to the desires of my heart, and express to you the happiness that I feel in assisting at this truly na tional banquet, where so many citizens are assembled to show their gratitude to two men who, by their private virtues as well as by their public lives, have merited their esteem. At the same time that I express to you my thanks for the honnur you have done me in allowing me to assist at your meeting, permit me to add my gratitude for the sympathy you have expressed for our misfortunes in presenting a petition in our favour. Gentlemen, raise once more your voices in a cause which is that of humanity, and your Government cannot longer remain the tranquil witness of those barbarities which are the disgrace of the century." Several other toasts were given, and the company did not separate until a late hour. FURTHER PARTICULARS OF STEINBERG, AND THE LATE MURDERS. It appears that about twelve years ago Mr. Lefevre, the father of the murdered woman, was in respectable circum stances, carrying on the trade of a bookseller in Soho square, but occupying a suit of apartments at the house of Mr. Mace, Carriage and Carriage-wheel Depot, No. 1, York-square, New-road. Having met with various disap pointments, he addicted himself to excessive drinking, and he became desponding, in which state he committed suicide, and was found hanging in a thick grove near Primrose-hill, quite dead. His family became exceedingly embarrassed, and were greatly assisted by Mr. Mace, who allowed them to live in his house. They had been on veryintimate terms with Mr. and Mrs. Steinberg, the latter of whom commiserating the situation of Mrs. Lefevre and her family, proposed receiving Ellen Lefevre into her hotise, not as a servant, but to live with them in a friendly manner. Steinburg consented to this, and the girl, who was only fifteen years of age at the time, accepted the offer and entered the house, where she was treated with the utmost attention and kindness. The son of Steinberg went to a boarding-school at Hampstead, and whenever Steinberg went to visit him he was invariably ac companied by Ellen Lefevre, at the suggestion of his wife, and on one of those journeys he was supposed to have se duced her. Many circumstances occurred to excite a sus picion in the mind of Mrs. Steinberg that there was some thing wrong between them. .He was in the constant habit of making her presents of valuable trinkets, necklaces, shawls, &c., and treating her with far more attention than his wife, and on more than one occasion he treated Mrs. S. abruptly, and took out Lefevre to walk with him in pre ference to her, and kept her out till late hours at night. On this intimacy being discovered Mrs. Steinberg ordered her to quit the house, when she went to reside with her mother, in Eitzroy-place, Fitzroy-square, where she was was prevented seeing Steinberg some time, and was kept locked up in her apartment. She, however, declared that she loved Steinberg dearly in consequence of his kindness and attention towards her, and that she could not live without him. Steinberg at length sought an opportunity, when he watched Mrs. Lefevre from home, on which he burst open the door and released her from her confinement, and took her to the house of Mr. Marshal, ironmonger, of the Hampstead-road, where she cohabited with him and became enciente, and eventually she became the mother of two children, which were weaned by Lefevre's mother, who afterwards forgave her. In consequence, however, of a quarrel Steinberg forbad Mrs. Lefevre visiting her daughter, and she afterwards heard or saw nothing of her until about four months ago, when she heard that he had gone to Ger meny with Steinberg and her family, and that they were murdered by him on their return to England. Mrs. Steinberg, who resides in Leigh-street, Burton crescent, is an Englishwoman, and appears to be in respect able circumstances. She speaks in high terms of the mild ness of the disposition of her deceased husband when with her. He was in the habit of allowing her 2/. 10s. per quar ter. He went to Germany about a law-suit, and prior to quitting England, he intended to have gone by himself, and leave Lefevre and the children at the house in Southamp ton-street, Pentonville. Lefevre, however, could not bear the idea of being left by him, and begged of him to take her and the children with him. He at length consented to take her and the children with him. Mrs. Steinberg expresses an opinion that Lefevre agreed with Steinberg to commit suicide and murder the children, as she was aware that she had been the cause of his ruin. She says that she is sure such was the case. THE RAVAGES OF WAR.--AS illustrative of this subject, we find in Le Sauveur a Greek and French journal published at Nauplia (and for which we return thanks to a kind though unknown friend), the melancholy statement, that whereas the district of Argolis and Corinth contained more than 600,000 inhabitants, its population is now reduced to 89,130. The district of Nauplia, says the writer, contains one principal town, one market•town, 24 villages, and 2,551 fami lies ; Corinthia, 13 market-towns, 83 villages, and 5,553 fami lies ; the province of Trezene, one principal town, one market town, 19 villages, and 21 families ; Hydra, one principal town, one hamlet, and 2,663 families ; and lastly, the province of Hermione, two principal towns, two market-towns, two villages, in all 17,826 families, which, calculating each at five indivi duals, gives the above-mentioned number.—Athemzurn. The following persons are mention. - as likely to form part of the New Spanish Ministry :-1, Count Toreno, who will remain at the head of the Finance Department, with the un derstanding that he will modify his plan, and propose a system of resources for the redemption of the foreign debt, which ho did wrong not to present at once. 2, M. de Florida Blanca, or Aghostino Arguelles, at the head of the Foreign Depart ment. 3, General Valdez at the head of the War Department. 4, M.

Calatrava to be Minister of Justice. No one is men tioned for the Navy, but this department is scarcely of any im portance in Spain. According to this arrangement the coun try would lose the services of two very honorable men—M. Martinez de la Rosa and M. Garelli. But sooner or later they will reappear on the political stage. The last mentioned. individual, who has in no way compromised himself, and whose conduct has always been decidedly progressive, would seem to be destined to a longer ministerial career. We learn from Lyons that M. Arguelles, who left Paris on Monday, the Bth inst., stayed 24 hours in the first-mentioned city, accompanied. by his friend M. Martin de los Heros. They afterwards re sumed their journey to Perpignan, Barcelona, and Madrid, where M. Arguelles goes to take his seat in the Chamber of Procuradores, unless his known political opinions and acknow ledged talents do not at ohce cause him to assume ,a more ele vated position. (From the Sentinelle des Pyrenees.) We are informed by a letter from Aldudes-, dated Septem ber 7, that 700 to 800 peasants are incessantly employed at Elisondo in raising fortifications mind the immense building of the Misericordia. Two houses and a hermitage which stood too near the intrenchments have been demolished. The chateau of Patria-Jaureguia, belon g i ng to M art i n Luis Etche varria, formerly Alcade Mayor of Bastan, and member of the insurrectionary junta of Navarre, was yesterday burnt likewise, though situated beyond the reach of shot. A battalion, com manded by Lieutenant-Colonel Zugarramurdi, will keep the garrison of the Misericordia. (Prom Galignani's Messenger.) The Sentinelk des Pyrenees of Bayonne of the 12th insc. says—" A great many Spaniards have arrived here from Pam peluna and Elisondo, driven away by the cholera. They have all been sent into the interior, except the widow of Santos Ladron who came with a regular passport. General Rodil has levied upwards of 20,000 ducats upon the suspected in habitants of Elisondo, amongst whom are four priests. The highest assessment made upon any individual was 6,000 ducats- Zugarramurdi was there." The France Meridionale of Toulouse of the 11th inst. has the following :—" M. Gaillard, of Bayonne, who came here, it is said, for the purpose of purchasing arms, has just been arrested, as having been connected with the seizure of arms made at the mouth of the river at Bordeaux. He was in pos session of a very considerable sum of money, and armed with a seven-barrelled gun fully charged." The Augsburg Gazette of the 11th inst. quotes the Funds at Vienna on the 6th, 5 per Cent. Metallics, 99 11-16 ; 4 per Cent. ditto, 83 13-16 ; Bank Actions, 1,300. The Suabian Mercury gives the following from Bruns wick under date of the 2d inst. :—" A general subject of conversation here is a memorial, which Duke Ch arles has published in the French language, in justification of his con duct, and more particularly with the view to repel accusations laid against him by an adversary, in a writing also published. in Paris. The memorial is written in the spirit of a man who is a friend to the people, and an enemy to the aristocracy. The Duke, at the same time, admits that he entertained the inten tion of landing 2,000 men in the north of Germany, in order to regain his Duchy. The plan of this adventurous expedi tion was formed by a Polish General. Men were inrolled and arms purchased, and the Duke candidly avows that he has not abandoned his views, and declares that he only waits for a more favourable opportunity, from a change in German politics, to carry them into execution. Nothing in this production shows the slightest disposition on the part of Duke Charles to come to any understanding with his brother, Duke William, for a formal resignation of his legitimate rights." According to accounts from Switzerland of the 6th instant the disasters occasioned by the late violent storms in the Valais are being repaired. The Inspector -General of Bridges and Roads has announced that the road over the Simplon would be passable for light carriages on the 12th instant, and those of the Valais, as well as those within the Sardinian terri tory, will shortly be rendered practicable for carriages of every description. The mountain might be already passed on horse back, and the diligence ran as far as the village of the Simplon. Letters from Alexandria of the 19th ult. give the following details respecting the late events in Syria :—" Towards the end of May an insurrection broke out in the mountains of Naplous, Jerusalem, and Djebel-Kahlil, including all Pales tine and Galilee. The ostensible cause was a levy of soldiers ordered by Ibrahim Pasha, but the real cause was the prohi bition made to the chiefs of the mountains to receive the tribute they were in the habit of exacting from all the pilgrims, whether Catholic, Armenian, Greek, Cop tic, or Jews, who went to visit the holy places. To this may be added the treatment inflicted by Ibrahim upon the famous Abou-Ghos, Chief of the Jerusalem moun tains, whom he had sent to the gallies of St. Jean d'Acre for having transgressed this prohibition. The number of insur gents from that part of Syria is estimated at 25,000. Com motions had also broken out among the Anezes Arabs, to the east of Jordan, and among the Ansaries, in the moun tains of Tripoli. A regiment of cavalry, which, for want of disposable infantry, Ibrahim had sent against the Naplusians, had been attacked in a defile, and was compelled to retreat, leaving in the power of the enemy its baggage and a hundred killed, among whom were the Colonel and two Captains. This first check was followed by another still more disastrous. The 19th Infantry Regiment, that Ibrahim had sent for to Da mascus made an ill-directed attack upon the rebels, and was repulsed with great loss. The Colonel and Lieutenant- Colonel were killed at the commencement of the action. On other points, however, where Ibrahim was in i person, the insur gents were cut to pieces. In his letters to his father he an nounced the prospect of a speedy termination of the contest, but Mehemet Alli was not so confident of success; H o entertained no doubt that emissaries had been, sent into Syria, and that intrigues were going on for the purpose of effecting a general insurrection. His resolution was promptly formed. Conceiving that not a moment was to be lost, he embarked for Jaffa on the 24th of June with a corps of about 8,000 picked men. His presence, and the arrival of this rein forcement, produced a rapid and decisive effect. The insur gent chiefs, struck with terror, or yielding to the influence of means employed to disunite them, remained nearly inactive, while Ibrahim continued to crush the insurrection by force of arms. The fortified village of Zeitta, at seven or eight hours' march from Naplous, was carried at the point of the bayo net ; two hours afterwards the mountaineers were vanquished in a second encounter, and lost 400 of their men. After this defeat all the villages submitted, and the Egyptian troops entered Naplous without firing a shot. The population which had taken part in the revolt were disarmed, and three chiefs, who were caught in the very act of treason, were be headed by order of Mehemet Ali, who, on the other hand, pardoned Abou-Ghos, and thereby attached to himself a man of great influence among his countrymen. As to the Emir Bichir, whose sentiments towards Mehemet were erro neously represented as equivocal, his master has had no rea son but to be satisfied with his zeal and fidelity. The Emir, on learning the arrival of the Pasha in Syria, hastened to send one of his sons to him. He himself undertook to punish the Turks of Saphet, who had massacred a great number of Jewish inhabitants of that town. 2,000 mountaineers of Libanus, under the command of his second son, have since con curred in repressing the movements which had again broken out among the Ansaries after the departure of Mehemet Ali for Egypt. This was the last attempt at revolt, and at the commencement of August the authority of the Pasha was per fectly restored at all points of Syria. Mehemet Alli on the 2Jth of July had returned to Alezandria." The Miniiteur Algerein of the sth instant, contains an order of the day, in which General Voirol congratulates himself oft the state in which he found the works of the camp at Douera. This camp, he remarks, created by the hands of our soldiery, will become one of our finest military establishments. It has already had considerable influence in promoting the submission of the Arabs in the plain and will lead to the occupation of Belida without firing a gun.
