senfirmation, and which, until disallowed, shall be in full force. 27. If any suit or action shall be commenced against any special justice, in respect of any act, matter, or thing by him done by ♦irtue and in pursuance thereof, and if the Court shill give judgment for the defendant, the plaintiff shall, by such judgment, be condemned to pay treble costs of suit. 28. If in any such suit or action, such justice shall, at any time before final judgment, tender to the plaintiff sufficient amends for the wrong or injury in respect of which the same may be brought, and submit to pay the costs of suit up to that time incurred ; and if the plaintiff shall refuse to accept such amends and costs of suit, then upon proof made to the Court at the trial of such suit, that such amends have been so tendered, and were suffi cient, judgment shall be given for the plaintiff, in the amount of the sum so tendered ; subject, nevertheless, to the reduction therefrom, of the costs of suit of the de fendant. 29. No suit or action shall be brought against any such justice in respect of any matter or thing by him done under or in pursuance hereof, unless the same shall be commenced within six months after the cause of action occurred. CAP. 111. ON THE DIVISION OF APPRENTICED LABOURERS INTO THEIR RESPECTIVE CLASSES. The fourth section of the Act require■ the division of the apprenticed labourers into the three classes of prsedial attached, prsedial unattached, and non-prwdial ; and this distribution is supposed or assumed in all the subsequent clauses. The question to be solved is, how it shall be ascertained in reference to each individual to which of the three classes he belongs. The following suggestions for that purpose are framed not without a constant reference to the single rule laid down by Parliament respecting it, that no person above the age of 12 shall be included in the class of prsedial apprentices, unless for 12 months before the date of the Act he had been habitually employed in prxdial labour. 1. By a day to be appoited for that purpose, the regis trar of slaves shall deliver to every owner of slaves a list of the slaves appearing in the registry to belong to him ; for which a fee of 2s. only shall be charged. 2. By a time to be fixed for the purpose, every such owner of slaves shall return such list to the registrar, dis tinguishing in reference to each slave therein_mentioned to which of the three classes he belongs. 3. To every such return shall be annexed an affidavit to the effect that the distinctions therein made correspond with the occupations usually pursued for 12 months next preceding the date of the Act by each of the slaves to whom such returns may refer. 4. If in any case the registrar shall see cause to doubt the accuracy of the return, he shall appoint a time and place at which the owner shall attend him to substantiate the accuracy of such return. 5. At the time and place so to be appointed the person to whom such notice shall be addressed shall attend such registrar, and, if required, shall bring with him any slave respecting whom any such doubt may have arisen. 6. The registrar shall then proceed to examine the person making such return, and the slave respecting whom such doubt has arisen, and any witnesses who may be adduced respecting the truth of such return ; and may, if necessary, adjourn such examination from time to time. 7. The registrar shall then either confirm or correct any such return as he may see fit, giving notice to the party making such return, and to the slaves respectively, of such his decision. 8. If either the party making such return, or the slave to whom it may refer, shall be dissatisfied with the decision of the registrar, such party may on his own behalf, and the registrar may on behalf of such slave, apply to the chief or any other judge of the superior court in such colony by petition, setting forth the nature of such decision and the objections thereto. 9. The judge to whom any petition may be preferred shall proceed in a summary wry to hear and to decide upon the same, and his decision shall be final and con clusive. 10. The judges of the said court shall make all neces sary rules for regulating the proceedings upon every such petition in the manner which may be most conducive to method, punctuality, and despatch. 11. When such proceedings as aforesaid shall have taken place, there shall be affixed to the entry of the name of each prandial attached slave in the registry the letters P A ; of each prandial unattached slave the letters P U ; and of each non-prmdial slave the letters N P. 12. During the continuance of the apprenticeship the slave registry, so corrected as aforesaid, shalt be deposited amongst the records of the superior courts of the colony ; and when any question shall arise respecting the class to which any apprenticed labourer belongs, such corrected registry, or a certified extract thereof, shall be taken as conclusive evidence of the fact. 13. Any person neglecting or omitting to make the return or the affidavit before-mentioned, or to attend the registrar when summoned by him for that purpose, shall incur a penalty of not more than 101. nor less than 20s. ; and in the event of the wilful absence of any such person, it shall he lawful for the registrar to proceed and to decide any such question as though such party had attended. CAP. IV. ON VIE MAINTENANCE OP THE APPRENTICED LABOURERS. Tinder the 11th clause of the Act the rules of law at present regulating the maintenance of slaves, are to apply to the case of apprenticed labourers. In colonies where such rules exist, nothing remains to be done on this sub ject, except to denounce penalties for disobedience to, or neglect of, the law. ' But in those colonies where slaves are maintained, not by the supply of provisions, but by the allotment of ground, it will be necessary to regulate the quantity and the situation of such ground, and to determine what portion of time is to be deducted for that purpose, from the forty-five hours of weekly labour to which the employer is entitled. In the Crown colonies these matters have been regulated partly by the Order ;n Council of November, 1831, and partly by certain supplementary regulations, which the Governors were authorized to establish. It is proposed, therefore, to transcribe, in form of a quotation or preamble, the law of Guiana respecting the supplies and provisio❑ grounds as modified by the late Governor, and to declare all such rules applicable to the case of apprenticed la bourers; transferring only to the special justice the powers at present exercised by the protector, for insuring obedi ence to such laws. CAP. V. ON THE DUTIES TO BE PERFORMED BY THE APPRENTICED • LABOURERS, AND THE PENALTIES FOR THEIR NON- PERFORMANCE. The principal dangers to be apprehended are-Ist, indo lence ; 2d, neglect of work; 3d, the improper perform ance of work ; 4th, injury to the employer's property ; I sth, insubordination and disobedience to the lawful corn mends of the employer. It is against these dangers, there fore, that the penalties of the law must be directed. The rules established by Parliament under this head are merely negatives. They are-Ist, that the punishment must not be inflicted by the authority of the employer himself ; 2d, that in the case of females the punishment of whipping must not be employed ; 3d, that the offences of apprenticed labourers against their employers must be inquired of only by magistrates holding special commissions; 4th, that the prolongation or renewal of the apprenticeship must not be included in the list of punishments ; to which rule, how ever, a qualification has been added, to the effect, that in the event of labourers absenting themselves from their em ployer's service, they may be compelled to make satisfac tion to the employer for the time so abstracted, during any period not exceeding seven years from the termination of the apprenticeship ; sth, that no extra labour shall be imposed as a punishment for more than 15 hours in a week; 6th, that no apprenticed labourer shall be required to work on a Sunday, except in certain excepted cases. It is therefore proposed to enact as follows 1. For every hour in which any labourer shall absent himself from his employer's service without reasonable gauss he shall be compelled to serve two extra hours, pro vided that such extra hours shall not exceed 15 in the whole in any one week. 2, Any apprenticed labourer absenting himself without reasonable cause for more than seven and a-half hours in any one week shall be adjudged a deserter. 3- Any apprenticed labourer absenting himself without reasonable cause for two days during one week shall be adjudged a vagabond. 4. Any apprenticed labourer absenting himself without reasonable cause for more than six days in a n y one week shall be adjudged a runaway. 5. The reasonableness of the cause of absence shall, in each case, be decided by the special justice. 6. Apprenticed labourers adjudged deserters shall b e confined to hard labour for any time not exceeding one week ; those adjudged vagabonds, to hard labour for any time not exceeding two weeks, and to any number of stripes not exceeding 15 ; those adjudged runaways, to barfl.labour for any time not exceeding one month, and to au3i rigmbi46f stripes not exceeding 30. - 7 An aticed labourer convicted of performing his work Indoleßaly, carelessly, or negligently, shall, for the &et offenee,be adjudged to labour in his e mployer's service for any ,iii not exceeding 15 hours in the whole ~/ (in any one week) ; for the second offence to confinement, with hard labour, for any time not exceeding one week ; for the third, or any subsequent offence, to confinement with hard labour, for any time not exceeding one fort night, with whipping not exceeding 20 stripes. 8. Any labourer who, by the careless use of fire, shall wilfully endanger the property of his employer, or any other person, or who shall wantonly injure the property of his employer intrusted to his care, or who shall ill use the cattle or other live stock of his employer, or who shall by wilful negligence expose his employer's property to any damage or injury, shall for such offence be adjudged, i❑ the discretion of the justice, either to extra labour in his employer's service for any time not exceeding 15 hours in the whole in any one week, or to confinement to hard labour for any time not exceeding one month, or to any number of stripes ❑ot exceeding 30 lashes, or to any two or more of such punishments. Provided that this enact ment shall not exempt any such labourer• from his or her liability to such actions or prosecutions as other persons of flee condition may be subject and liable to, in respect of any such acts by him or her done or omitted, although no such labourer shall be liable to be sued or prosecuted, both under this order and under such general law as aforesaid. 9. Any apprenticed labourer who shall contumaciously disobey the lawful commands of his employer shall be liable to any one or more of the punishments last aforesaid. 10. Any three or more apprenticed labourers who shall agree together to make any resistance to the lawful corn mantis of their employers shall be deemed guilty of an unlawful conspiracy, and shall be adjudged to confinement and to hard labour for any period not exceeding six months, with whipping not exceeding 39 stripes. 11. Any three or more labourers who shall be engaged in a combined and open resistance to the lawful commands of their employer, shall, on conviction, be adjudged to the punishments last aforesaid, or any one of them. 12. Any apprenticed labourer who shall be in a state of drunkenness, or who shall be found fighting, or who shall conduct himself in an insolent and insubordinate manner towards his employer or any person in the imme diate superintenderce of his labour, shall, for every such offence, be liable on conviction to imprisonment with hard labour for any time not exceeding one week, or to whip ping not exceeding 15 stripes. 13. Provided always that no woman shall be subject to be punished by whipping for any offence by her com• mitted ; but that i❑ all cases aforesaid in which that punishment is authorized it shall be understood as applying to the case of males only, and that all the offences in re spect of which such punishment may be inflicted on any such male offender shall, when committed by females, be punished by confinement in the stocks, or by distinguish ing marks or dresses. The stocks to be employed for that purpose shall all be according to one general model, to be sanctioned by the Governor, and no female shall for any offence by her committed be confined in the stocks after sunset or before sunrise, or for more than eight hours in the whole for any one day, or for more than two days consecutively, or for more than six days in the whole for any one offence. 14. All the offences aforesaid shall be inquired of by the magistrates having special commissions, and not by any other justice of the peace ; but any such special magis trate may, if he shall see occasion, refer any such case for trial to the superior court of the colony. CAP. VI. ON THE DUTIES TO BE PERFORMED BY THE EMPLOY• YRS TOWARDS THEIR APPRENTICED LABOURERS, AND THE PEN•LTIES FOR TIIEIR NON-PERFORMANCE. 1. If the employer of any prmdial apprenticed labourer shall, by force or fraud, protract the weekly services of such labourer beyond the period by law allowed for that purpose, be shall forfeit for the benefit of such labourer, the sum of one shilling. 2. It shall be the duty of every such employer to in timate to the labourers in his employment the commence ment and the close of the legal hours of labour; for which purpose, a signal shall be given in such manner as shall, in reference to each plantation, have been previously approved by the special justice of the district; which signal shall always be of such a nature as to be distinctly visible or audible to the several prsedial ap prenticed labourers in the service of any such person. 3. No apprenticed labourer shall be bound to undertake any task work, except with his own free assent to the same, save as hereinafter is excepted. 4. Every contract between the employer and the prw dial apprenticed labourer, for the performance of any specific work as a task, and in lieu of the prescribed daily labour, or for the performance of any labour in extra hours, shall by such employer be reduced into writing and entered in a book to be kept for that purpose on the plantation ; which book it shall be the duty of the special justice to inspect, as often as he shall in manner aforesaid repair to the several plantations within his district. 5. No contract between the employer and the prandial apprenticed labourer for the performance of any such specific er task work, or for the performance of any labour in extra hours, shall endure or continue in force, or he binding upon the parties entering into the same or either of them, after the expiration of 11 days from the making thereof, unless the same shall have been made and entered into by such parties in the presence and with the approba tion of such special justice of the peace, or unless, having been entered into in his absence, the same shall be con firmed and approved by him before the expiration of such 14 days. And every such approbation of any such contract shall, by such special justice, be attested under his hand in the book so to be kept as aforesaid. 6. It shall be the duty of the special magistrate, before approving any such contract, to ascertain that the terms thereof are distinctly understood by the apprenticed labourers entering into the same; and that such labourers have entered into such contract freely and voluntarily, and that the same is not unreasonable or unjust. 7. In every such contract of task-work, or for extra service extending beyond the period of one fortnight, the nature and amount of the extra labour to be performed, and the amount of the consideration to be given for the same, and the time and manner of paying such considera tion, shall be distinctly expressed. 8. No contract for such extra service as aforesaid shall continue in' force for more than one year from the day of the date thereof. 9. Upon proof being made, to the satisfaction of such special justice, of the non-payment of the consideration stipulated for in any such contract as aforesaid, whether for task work or for extra services, it shall be competent to such justice, and he is hereby authorized to award execution against such employer for the amount of such consideration ; and if the same shall not be paid within one week next after such award, to issue a❑ attachment against the produce, utensils, and other chattels upon such plantation, which execution and award shall be respectively in the forms annexed, marked N and 0. 10. Such execution and attachment as aforesaid shall be executed by the sergeant of the police of the district,who shall thereunder seize and sell so much of the produce, utensils and other chattels, as may be found upon such plantation, as may be necessary for the payment of such debt, delivering over the surplus, if any, to such employer. 11. Any apprenticed labourer violating the terms of such contract as aforesaid fur task work or for extra service, shall be liable to the same pains and penalties as are before provided in respect of the violation by any such labourer, of the duties to be by him performed in the discharge of the services owing by him by law to such his employer. 12. Every married woman, notwithstanding her cover ture, and every child of the age of twelve years and up wards, notwithstanding his infancy, shall be competent to enter into such contracts as aforesaid for task work or for extra service. 13. If any employer of any apprenticed labourer shall whip, beat, imprison, confine in the stocks, or otherwise maltreat any such apprenticed labourer, or shall, by way of punishment, commit any assault upon his person, such employer shall incur a penalty, to be imposed by such special justice as aforesaid, not exceeding 51., with impri sonment for any time not exceeding one month, in default of the payment of such fine. 14. In any such case as last aforesaid, it shall be compe tent to any such apprenticed labourer, instead of preferring his complaint to such special justice, to maintain any civil suit or action, as in the case of any other free person, for damages for such assault ; and it shall also be competent to such special justice, if he shall see occasion, to ab stain from imposing such penalty, and to commit the offender to take his trial for such offence before any court having jurisdiction iu the premises. If any such em ployer shall be convicted before any court of competent jurisdiction iof any cruelty towards his apprenticed la bourer, or f any such employer shall be twice convicted of inflicting any corporeal punishment, or of making any assault upon the person of any such labourer, then the labourer shall be discharged from his apprenticeship by order of the court before which such conviction shall be had. CAP. VII. ON OFFENCES WHICH MAY BE COMMITTED BY THE APPRENTICED LABOURERS AGAINST THE STATE, AND THE PUNISHMENT OF SUCH OFFENCES. The peace and good order of society will be endangered by the apprenticed labourers, considered as a distinct class, i❑ one or other of the five following modes:--Ist, by riot; 2d, by maronnage ; 3d, by the desertion of helpless children ; 4th, by settling upon lands without any legal title; sth, by the desertion of the colonies to which they belong. The following proposed enactments are intended to counteract these various dangers :- 1. If any three or more apprenticed labourers shall unite together in any riot or tumultuous assemblage, any justice of the peace who shall be present at the same; shall cause a flag or some other conspicuous signal to be exhibited as a warning to all persons there present to se parate and disperse quietly. 2. All persons who, at the expiration of 10 minutes from the exhibition of such flag or signal, shall continue present at any such riotous assemblage, shall, on conviction, be liable to imprisonment with hard labour for any time cot exceeding twelve months. 3. No labourer shall reside beyond the limits of the district in which he may be resident on the Ist of August next, unless either by the authority of his employer, or with the consent is writing of the special justice of such district. 4. Every labourer found beyond the limits of the dis trict to which he belongs, except in his way to and from market, or to or from some place of public worship, and not having with him a written pass for that purpose from his employer, or from the special justice of the district, shall be liable to be apprehended and detained, and shall, on conviction, be adjudged a vagabond and punished ac cordingly. 5. Any apprenticed labourer who shall for seven days or upwards absent himself from his employer's service without reasonable cause, to be allowed by the special justice of the district to which he may helong, shall by such special justice be adjudged a runaway, and shall be sentenced to three months' imprisonment and hard labour, or, if a male, to whipping not exceeding 39 stripes. 6. If it shall be made to appear to the satisfaction of any special jeatice that any apprenticed labourers have, without lawful authority, established themselves in any part of the colony as a distinct community, habitually abandoning and neglecting to perform the duties imposed upon them by law, such justice of the peace shall cause any Isuch community to be dislodged, and, if necessary, shall also cause their habitations to be taken down and removed. 7. Any labourer convicted of having been a member of any such community shall be liable to imprisonment with bard labour for any term not exceeding six months, and, if a male, to whipping by any number of stripes not exceeding 39. 8. All officers and privates of the colonial militia shall be aiding in carrying into effect any directions which may be issued by any such special magistrate as aforesaid for dislodging any community as aforesaid. 9. If any apprenticed labourer, being in good health and able to work, and being the father of a child under the age of twelve years, shall not make adequate pro vision for the subsistence of such child, it shall be lawful for any special magistrate to adjudge any such labourer to hard labour, and to apply the earnings of such labourer towards the support and maintenance of any such child. 10. For the purpose last aforesaid, such special justice may hire out of the labour of any such father to any person who may be willing to agree for the same, or to labour on any public works, on the best terms which can be procured. 11. Such compulsory labour as aforesaid shall not be continued longer than may be necessary to provide for the maintenance of the child of such labourer for one month in advance. 12. Ira case any such child, so unprovided for as aforesaid, shall have no father living, then the regulations aforesaid shall apply to the mother of such child, if alive, and competent by her labour to provide for the mainte nance of such child. 13. All the penalties before denounced in case of in dolence, neglect of work, or otherwise, in respect of labour performed by the apprenticed labourers in the service of their employ ere, shall apply to the case of labour undertaken for the maintenance of such child as aforesaid, by virtue of any such order as aforesaid. 14. If any such labourer shall, without lawful autho rity, enter into possession of any land belonging to his Majesty, or to any other person, it shall be lawful for any special justice to dispossess such labourer from such land, and from any buildings thereon erected, and to cause the same, with all crops growing thereupon, to he de livered up to the owner of such land ; or in case such owner shall not, within one month after such seizure appear and prefer his claim to such land, then the special justice shall order the crops, cattle, and other goods seized thereupon to be sold, and the proceeds of such sales to be paid over to the public treasurer of the colony. 15. The summary process aforesaid shall not be taken in any case where any such apprenticed labourer may have been for two yeats in the undisturbed possession of any such land. 16. The special justice may further adjudge any ap prenticed labourer, unlawfully taking possession of such land, to imprisonment with hard labour for any time not exceeding three months, if it should be made to appear to his satisfaction that such possession was taken fraudulently and with knowledge that the party had no lawful claim to such possession. 17. No apprenticed labourer shall quit the colony except without a passport from the governor, which passport shall not he granted except with the written consent of the em ployer. 18. Any labourer quitting, or attempting to quit the colony without such passport, shall be liable to imprison. ment with hard labour for any term not exceeding six months. 19. All persons whose ordinary occupation is on the sea, or on any navigable stream, as fishermen or mariners, shall be registered as such at the office of the special justice of the district; and any apprenticed labourer engaging in such occupation, without being first so registered, shall be liable to imprisonment with hard labour for any time not exceeding three months. 20. All vessels and boats not registered under the Na vigation Acts shall be registered at the office of the special justice of the district, with whom shall be entered the description of the vessel or boat, the name of the owner, and the place at which the same is usually moored. 21. No person shall keep a ♦essel or boat so registered except by a license from the governor. 22. All licensed owners of such boats or vessels shall be bound to moor them, when not actually afloat, at the place or places mentioned in such license. 23. All unlicensed vessels and boats shall be liable to seizure and confiscation ; and all other vessels and boats moored at any place not mentioned in the license, shall be liable to detention until the owner thereof shall have paid a fine of not less than 205., nor more than 51. 24. All persons removing or assisting to remove any apprenticed labourer from the colony, in any boat or vessel, without a passport from the governor, shall be liable to a penalty of 501., or to imprisonment for any time not exceeding one month. CAP. VIII. ON THE DISSOLUTION OF THE APPRENTICESHIP BY CON. TRACT OR APPRAISRMIENT. The subject of the purchase by slaves of their freedom, whether with or against the assent of the owner, has for many years past occupied much time, and given occasion to a protracted correspondence with the colonies. The law on this head was consolidated by the Order of Novem ber, 1831. It is proposed to transfer this law to the case of a discharge from apprenticeships. The abridgment of labour, and the saving of time, are not the only recom mendations of this method. It will also have the conve ❑ience of following a precedent which was maturely con sidered, and which has long been subjected to the test of experience. It does not appear that anything more is necessary than to recite this part of the law respecting the manumission of slaves, and to provide that it should apply, mutatis ,nutandie, to the present case—the special justice being to perform the part at present borne in such proceedings by the protector. CAP. IX. ON THE REMOVAL OP PRIEDIAL APPRENTICED LABOURERS TROIII ONE PLANTATION TO ANOTHER. The 9th section of the Act of Parliament requires that the supplementary laws shall determine the terms and the manner in which the consent of the justice to every trans, fer of labourers, from one plantation to another, shall be given, attested, and recorded. Under this head, therefore, it does not appear that any thing further is requisite than consents, and to declare that a bookto annex shall a f b o e r m k e p fo u kept by b ys each c h special justice, in which he shall record every such consent as may be given by himself. CAP. X. ON THE APPRENTICESHIP OF CHILDREN. The 13th section contains the rules respecting the apprenticeship of young children ; and the 16th requires that the supplementary laws shall determine the manner and form in which such indentures shall be made, regis. tered, and preserved. Under this head all that seems wanting is a proper form, with a chrection that the inden tures, when executed, shall be registered and preserved by the special justice. CAP. XI. ON TIIE ALIENATION RY SALE, INHERITANCE, OR WILL, OF THE SERVICES OF APPRENTICED LABOURERS. This is the subject of the 10th clause of the Act, which requires the enactment of supplementary laws regulating the alienation and descent of this new species of property. The questions to which it gives rise are such as to make it extremely difficult to lay down rules exempt from many strange legal anomalies. That which has hitherto been dealt with as a permanent inheritance has passed into a tenure for five or seven years. It is no longer a real but a chattel interest, and should therefore apparently pass by the same modes of conveyance, will, and descent, as other chattels. But such an innovation would disturb all existing titles, and disappoint all present expectations. It appears therefore that the single regulation that can be made is, that the ancient rules of law shall continue in force as far as the abridged duration of the property itself will allow. CAP. XII. ON THE RELATION IN WHICH THE APPRENTICED LABOUR- ERS WILL STAND TOWARDS THE STATE. These terms refer to the subject noticed in the 22d sec tion of the Act, namely, the exemption or disqualification of the apprenticed labourers from holding civil and military offices. The enactments will accordingly be very few and simple. It should be provided that no apprenticed la bourer should serve in the militia, or be compelled or competent to hold any office in his Majesty's service. To this general rule two qualifications should be annexed; the first, that it should not absolve the labourers from the duty of serving in any military oucivil capacity to which they might be called by the govhor, in case of invasion, rebellion, or any other great public exigency ; the second, that the rule should not be extended by construction to offices held in theitiservice of any corporation or body politic, or in any church or ecclesiastical society. There can be no reason why, in common with all other members of the state, the apprenticed labourers should not contribute, on great emergencies, to tl4epublic defence, nor why a labourer should be disqualified from any of those employments, sometimes called offices, which carry with them no po. litical character or franchise, such as the situations of beadles, parish clerks, and so on.

VIENNA, DEC. 17. —The sittings of the Congress will he held at the Chancellor's office. M. Schoehter, Secretary to the Hessian Embassy, here is appointed Charge d'Af faires at Paris. The Turkish mail of the 25th ult. did not arrive till yesterday, the roads being in a bad state owing to the late rains. CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. 25.—Riza Effendi was ap pointed on the 21st Director of the Ottoman Mint, and Nafi Effendi, who has hitherto filled that post, is named Steward of the Grand Seignor's land. M. Nathaniel Rothschild, son of the Austrian Consul in London, has ar rived here within a few days. The rate of Turkish money continues to improve. We hope for the continuance of peace, and this hope is encouraged by the return of the Turkish fleet to the arsenal. The Sultan has taken up kis winter residence in Tschirazan. The American Commo dore Patterson, and the North American Minister, Com modore Porter, had audience of the Sultan on the 20th ; he has now returned to the Archipelago. A loan is spoken of on account of M. Rothschild's visit. SERVIAN FRONTIERS, DEC. 6.—Couriers continue to pass to and from St. Petersburgh. If it is still owing to the remonstrance of England and France, it is h too late; when Ibrahim Pacha was before Constantinople nothing was done ; it is now thought singular that the Sultan should form an alliance with the Power that saved him. Mary not Russia equally remonstrate at the alliance of England and France? In the occupation of Algiers there would be more valid and just subject of complaint than in the Russian treaty, in which no third party is concerned. These political intermezzos are injurious to trade; if not so much as war itself, they have not the advantage of speculation which war brings with it : they only awaken mistrust, without attaining the point hoped for in Paris and London. The alliance between Russia and the Porte will be strengthened in proportion to the op- position shown to it, as it is only from Russia the Porte can hope for aid. The Porte, as also the Russian Minister, now see that it is no longer a question of an interest purely material that is to be consulted as those which guided the policy of Catherine, but there is a moral influencenow to ha pTer cised, like that of France in Belgium, or of England i❑ Portugal. The British merchants in the Levant, as well as the entire commerce of France and England, must suffer by the continued opposition of their two Govern ments. Admiral Roussin can already confirm this, by the change which has already taken place. Nor is this difficult to be explained. The principal commercial affairs are transacted for and by the Government. Can the Porte show any favour to France when it was the merchants of that country who enabled Mehemet Ali to rise in c'a•in g insurrection agaiQst his sovereign, and who laboured to make the vice still more powerful ? and here it is now the French Government that is urging on the British Cabinet to deprive the Porte of the only support it has at this moment. This cannot succeed. What equivalent can be offered for the loss of Russian aid ? Where is it to be found ? Commerce sees the impracticability of this, and dreads the moment when this dissension may issue in an open rupture. CONSTANTINOPLE.—+MOUNT LEBANON, SETT. 15. We have had the honour of a visit frcm Baron Boisle Comte Plenipotentiary, of the King of France, who has stopped some days with us. He came from Egypt, and would not leave Syria without seeing the lofty cedars on the summit of our mountain, which have defied the storms of so many ages, and the monuments of an tiquity, in which this country is so rich. He took up his abode in the residence of the Prince, and all the ecclesiastical and civil authorities of the Marmite nation eagerly went to meet bim in the midst of the population, which was rejoiced at having this opportu nity of giving to France this mark of gratitude for the protection which this country has always been honoured with by that Power. The Baron expressed his lively satisfaction at seeing such respect paid to the nation which he represented in such remote countries, and gave us the flattering assurance of the continuance of that protection in all cases of difficulty. CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. 25.—Edhem Effendi, who was sent by the Porte to Alexandria to regulate the payments of the tribute by Mehemet Ali, has returned to Constan tinople, and.announced to the Sulta❑ the satisfactory result of his negotiations, which at one time threatened to lead to misunderstandings. He has also brought a part of the tribute, viz., the sum of five millions of piastres (a piastre is at present worth the tenth part of a florin, or six Kreutzres convention money). The more general know ledge of this result, which was confirmed by the entrance of the Turkish fleet into the arsenal, where a great many of the ships are already dismantled, has greatly revived the hopes of a durable peace, and carried great joy especially among the merchants. The whole contents of the agree ment between Mehemet Ali and EThem Effendi, are not however positively known ; only so much is certain, that the five millions paid are on account of the arrears. VIENNA, DEC. 17.—Five per Cent. Metalliques, 941; Four per Cent. 844 ; Bank Shares, 1,226 4.—Allgemeine Zeitung, Dec. 22. NUREMBURA, DEC. 19.—Caspar Hauser (as we have said) died of his wound on the 17th. It seems that sus picion is entertained of a merchant of Bohemia, who arrived at Anspacb, and left it in his own carriager. TRANKrORT, Dec. 21.—The official papers of Dr den, Darmstadt, &c., contain the modification necessary in the commercial legislation of the respective countries, as pre paring to carrying into effect the commercial treaties, and the new tariff of customs, which will be carried into effect on the Ist January, Ml.—Frankfort Papers, Dec. 22. THE BABES OF THE WOOD.-TliiS nurse's story was nearly realized in the case of two young children, of about three or four years old, who left their home on Saturday afternoon, and not having been heard of for a few hours, the town drummer was employed to go his rounds ; but for that night no notice of them was received. Next morning they were discovered in the churchyard, lying aMleep in each other's arms, on a grave, their eyes showing that the poor babes had cried themselves to slumber ! —Aberdeen Journal. The chamelion, one of the lacertaspecies,abounds in this country. I had one which lived for three months. Of all the irascible little animals in the world, there are none so choleric as the chamelion. I trained two large ones to fight, and could, at any time, by bringing their tails in contact, insure a combat; during which their change of colour was most conspicuous. This change is only effected by paroxysms of rage, when the dark green gall of the animal is transmitted into the blood, and is visible enough under its pellucid skin. The gall, as it enters and leaves the circulation, affords the three various shades of green which are observable in its colour. The story of the chamelion mourning whatever colour is near it, is, like that of its living upon air, a fable. It is ex tremely voracious. I bad one so tame that I could place it on a piece of stick, opposite a window, and in the course of ten minutes, I have seen it devour half a dozen flies. Its mode of catching them is very singular ; the tongue is a thin, cartillaginous dart, anchor shaped ; this it thrusts forth with great velocity, and never fails to catch its prey. —Madden's Travels in Turkey, Egypt, Nubia, to. THE GERMAN STUDENT.—The scene brought to mind the instance of the German student, who, having pined with desire during many years to see the " eternal city," and hardly saved a slender sum from his poor resources, at last sets out with an enraptured heart. He had calculated that, with rigid economy, there was enough to bear the expenses of the way, as well as a abort residence in Rome. He travelled on foot, and was occa sionally indebted by the way to the hospitality of the pas tors of the villages, who gladly gave lihn welcome beneath their roof. But this resource failed when the distance be tween Heidelberg and the north of Italy was passed, and he found himself in a foreig n land. Like the shipwrecked man who guards with a lynx-like suspicion and care the little store he had saved, the enduring student grudged himself almost every meal he afe, and for which he must surely pay. Yet, amidst privations and fatigues, the y night; bef o e nergy of the mind lived on; every day—for not one was given to rest—brought him nearer to the goal of all his hopes. Rome filled hi s th oug hts by day and his dreams b re iti hi a m th i o n u t s h an e d de s s p e l r e t u p d l i a d in a , nd bu fa t n a t l a i s w tic er f e . oi forms she stood glorious and indelible. In spite of every care, and daily, even hourly self-denial, when he arrived at l3accano his finances were brought low, very low, for the way had been long and weary. The day was breaking; he could not afford to rest at the desolate inn , but he hastened forward to the summit of the hill that bounds the little plain, and sat down, and looked long and with indescribable emotion. From this spot the dome of St. Peter's is distinctly seen far in the distance, and the rising sun now fell redly on it. He watched its glory as if it had been that of another and brighter world ; ail which he had yearned fur so many years, which his heart had bled to behold, was there ! And now to turn back again, after all his toils, and never —never enter Rome, was almost more than man could bear ! lie counted once more the scanty sum that re mained, and saw that, if he entered Rome he must solicit the charities of his countrymen either for his support there or his return home, and he scorned to be thus degraded. Even with the most rigid economy, there was scarcely a sufficiency for his journey back. He cast a farewell look towards the city, and, rising from the earth with an al. most broken heart, lie bent his way over the plain.— Carne's .Lettors. • - *lin,Y.) . •••,.

The election of President and Vice-Presidents of the French Chamber of Deputies, took place on Thursday last, when M. DUPIN, the late President, was returned by a large majority, having obtained 220 votes out of 229, which was the L e total A r n A u y.s mb T er T . E, 1 There eacho39 erewerefrM. L votes fo r A General FITTE and M. ODILLON BARROT, and 7 for M. DUPONT DE L'EURE. The Deputies elected to the Vice-Presidency were M. SCHO' NEN, M. DELESSERT, and M. ETIENNE. The Paris Ministerial Papers assume front these elections that the Ministry are stronger in the Chamber of Deputies than they were in the last session, and one of our own Morning Con' temporaries has drawn a similar conclusion , We are by no means disposed to make the same inference. If the election of President had been a mere trial of party strengths M. LAFITTE, who had only 11 votes, would certainly have had at least 50, for his party it the Chamber certainly amounts to that number ; and M. ODILLON BARROT could not have had less than 30, for the Paris Ministerial Journals allow that there are at least 30 avowed republicans in the Chamber. LAFAYETTE, too, would cer' tainly have stood higher on the list if it had been resolved that the election to the Presidency should be considered the index of party strength for the remainder of the session. It would be much more reasonable to infer that the Deputies, well satisfied from experience as to the firmness and general integrity of M. DUPIN, we re determined to re-elect him, because h e po9° sesses the qualifications requisite in a Pre' sident, and not because he belongs to a poll' tical party. If the strength of a party in a House of Representatives were to be judged of from the political character of the President, would not our own House of Commons have the re' putation of being essentially know that although Mr. Tory ; and yet w e SUTTON 0 Speaker, the Tories do not amount to one' fourth of the number of Members. .M Mr. MANNERS SUTTON was re-elected for his eminent qualifications as Speaker, so bavq c PRICES OF FOREIGN FUNDS Austrian Bonds 97 Belgian Bonds 96 4 1 /i Ditto Account 96 Brazilian Bonds 67% Ditto Account 67% Buenos Ayres Bonds — Ditto Account 21% Chilian Bonds Ditto Account % Columbian Bonds 19% THIS DAT AT ONE 0 CLOCK.
