OATEN]: BRANDY VERSUS COGNAC. it —lf any evidence were wanting, that the old prejudices in favour of French Brandy over the English Spirit are fast wear ing away, and that the public are discriatinating and judging for themselves as to the respective merits of the two articles, such evidence will be found in the simple fact that, whilst BETT'S PAT ENT BRANDY has experienced a sale, within the present year, exceeding, by nearly 50 per cent., that of any corre sponding preceding period, there has been a considerable falling.. off in the consumption of Foreign Brindy. If the comparison be made with the Brandy establishments of this Country, it will be found that, after all their lofty pre tensions to public support, they have dwindled into comparative insignificance ; the entire trade of the largest and most pow erful of these establishments not having amounted to the mere I increase in J. T. Betts and Co.'s sales within the same space of time ; a necessary consequence of their total inability to produce an article with the slightest pretensions to approach it in quality.

TIMES.—It has been mentioned to-day in the city, 'that certain wealthy individuals interested in the " United State? Bank," are about to despatch a con fidential agent to Philadelphia to make inquiries on the spot into the actual state of its effairs. There can be no doubt of the prudence of this step, on which the smaller creditors will have great reason to congratulate them selves, as affording them a degree of protection • in the liquidation of their claims which they could hardly hope to attain in any other manner, for it is greatly to be feared that as soon as the matter is ascertained to be tiesperae, there will be a general scramble for the wreck of the property,,in which the English holders, unless they adopt a very strong end decisive course of action, must expect to fare the uor6t. There is •unfortunately sonic c ollision of interests in the -case( rat; those. who have lent money to the bank, represented by post-notes, bonds, or hills of •exchange, will expect to be paid before the .shareholders, who represent to the extent of their shares the bank itself. Theirs is the capital of the bank, for which they are liable to the creditors generally, and perhaps it may turn out fortunate for them in the end that such is the extent of their liability. , With respect to the floating claims at present mixed up in the London circulation, there are very good opinions to be met with. in the City as to their ulti mate safety, and there. can be no doubt that a very strong and united effort will be made to secure them: For ourselves, we.have no very sanguine expectation in this matter. The settlement of the ACeount in the English Stock Market took place to-day. The speculators for tiles rise during the Aecount now ended .took considerable quantities of Stock, and it turned out therefore what. is called a " " Account. Money was in consi derable demand, and froth 6 to 6i per cent. was paid for it upon . Consols ; otherwise the settlement was not marked by any particular feature; . for the fluc tuations since the last settlement on the 15th of Ode her have not been of much moment. On . the close of the last account Consols stood at 90i to for money, and 904 buyers for account. This morning they opened at precisely the same quotations, with at the close this evening, a slight improvement, in the money prices to 90i to 4, the prices for account being 913 to The variations during the account - have ranged between 90, which was about the lowest money price, and 90k, the highest. The rate of continuation on the former set et l a i s n e g s - d a a s y n u n i p c o hn as Consols per c w e a n s t w l - a l s o g p iv e e r n T t . 1 , 1 e a n r a d t e in t to-clay for the January account now opened—that is, for about .50 days—is equal to 4 per cent. Exchequer Bills, which form another criterion Of the state of the Money Market, have declined rather c'onsiderably. since the October settlement ; they were then 2s. discount at par, but left off this evening no better than 7s. to ss. dis count. Bank Stock was 178 to 9 ; India Stock, 251 to 2. POST.—A demand for money at the Stock Ex change has caused great depres-ion in the value of almost every kind - of public security, this being the account-day for the English Market. Consols left off at 90} to 1 for Money, and 91/ for the 16th of Ja nuary. Exchequer Bills were done at 7s. to ss. dis., India Bonds at Bs. to 6s. dis., and Bank Stock at 178 to The Spanish Active Bonds were done during the day as low as 23k, the news from Madrid being such as to excite in the minds of the bona fide holders the greatest apprehensions lest foul play should be again going on in the financial department of the Queen's Government ; and whether or not they are justified in entertaining such an apprehension is to be determined, not alone by the facts that have come to light on former occasions, but by the intelligence which has been only this day re ceived from different quarters. SUN.—The official announcement of the Hop duty for the present year has much disa ppointed the speculators ; it is much less than was an tici p ated. The old duty is only e e d w la l t s el l y to reach 210,000/. ,0191. 3 s . ld.

The evidence in his case tends to show strongly how much the wretched men were duped and deluded by their leaders. If the witnesses in the subjoined evidence may be credited (and they nearly all agree in this par tieular), there was scarcely one of them who was aware of the purpose for which they were to assemble until the were brought, as it were, to the very verge of de struction. They were told—both men and women— that they (th e l ea d ers ) wou ld prov id e victuals for the wives and families till the men - returned to their homes—that gentlemen bad subscribed to find " soup" for the poor. They were told, too that if they did not take out cards, they would be injured ; and Williams appears to have obtained a con siderable sum by this artful trick. The case against Williams appears to be a strong one. Amongst other things sworn to is the fact of his em ploying himself in the manufacturing. of cartridges, and a large canvas bag of 'them was produced which was taken from the dead body nf.une of the Chartists. Some of them were rolled up in portions of the Western Vin dicator, a portion of an address to the " Men and Wo men of the ;West of England and South Wales," In reading the subjoined evidence, it must be borne in mind that nearly every witness had been a Chartist, and it was very evident they were much more willing to favour the prisoner than to inculpate him. I have stated, at the commencement and at the close of my report of the examination, the appearance the prisoner presented, and it will be observed that some of the witnesses could scarcely recognise him, so much was he altered in appearance. The mental torture he has endured must have been dreadful. He sat at the bar with his head bent nearly to his knees, and every now and then breathing a deep sigh, or murmuring forth a suppressed groan. The following notice has just been issued by the Magistrates ; and other precautionary mea,ures have been taken to-day, to prevent all risk of another out break ! " NOTICE.— All publicans, spirit-dealers, and beer sellers are to close their houses this evening at eight o'clock, and to continue to do so until further notice. " By order of the Magistrates. " Newport, Nov. 26, 1839." THE EXAMINATIONS. TUESDAY, Nov. 29.—The Court opened at eleven o'clock. Magistrates prescnt.—Thomas Hawkins, Esq., Mayor ; Rev. James Coles, Octavius Morgan, William Brewer, Thomas Fothergill, George Hall, Esqrs. ; Col. Lewis, and Sir Charles Morgan. Professional Gentlemen :—Mr. Phelps, Mr. T. J. Phillips ; and for the prisoner, Zephaniah Williams, Mr. Geach. Zephaniah Williams was again placed at the bar. He presented nearly the same deplorable appearance that I yesterday described, except that, of course, each day he appears more and more wretched. The examinations on the part of the prosecution were conducted by Mr. Phelps. William Howell sworn—l am a labourer at Blaina Iron-works. I do not know Zephaniah Williams. I have seen him about three times. I first saw him on the Tuesday before the riots. I saw him in his own house. He lives between Garnfach and Blaine, near the Colebrook-vale works. He keeps the Royal Oak. I was there about half an hour. The prisoner was in the room and a great many others. I heard the prisoner say the Charter was a good cause. I never gave my name for the Charter. I saw him the second time, either the Friday or the Saturday after, in his own house. Thomas Guttery was there. I stayed about a quarter of an hour. I saw him again on the Sunday evening. They did rise. There were a great many there. I heard the prisoner say there was to be a large meeting on the mountain, and it would be best for every one to have something to defend himself, for fear the meeting should be interrupted. They were all to go to London, and there was to be no shedding of blood ; and that a great many gentlemen did give their money to support the poor, and their wives and families, till they returned again every one to his home peaceably. He did not tell us how we were to go to London, nor when we were to start. He toll us every one was to be on the mountain just at dark. This was a little after three. I did not stop three minutes. I went out with my wife about o'clock. That is the time Igo to chapel. I am obliged to pass by the prisoner's door to go to chapel. I met just opposite his house three men with pikes. I saw a great many others without pikes. I know the lodge-room at the prisoner's. The room would hold 200 or SOO. - The persons I met turned down by the end Of the prisoner's house. - game of them came back with pikes very shortly. The lodge-room is up stairs.. The men, went down in twos or threes with ou t arms , to t h e room under'the lodge-room, and I saw• some out, hut I am'net certain they were the same men that came out armed, the people were so thick. I don't know any of those who went in without a pike and returned with one. About four came out with pikes, and about twenty with out. I did not go to chapel ; they drove me up the mountain with the pikes, They first began to drive me with the pikes by the prisoner's door. It was after six when I got to the mountain. I saw a man there that they said was 'Zephaniah. Williams... The witness was re , 'Attested to look at the prisoner, and say if that was the person he saw on the mountain. The witness, after looking at him, said he could not swear that that was the man, but he was very much like him. Alter we came from the mountain we went to Mr. Harford's works. I heard the man they called Zephaniah Wil liams say that there was one of those engines and trains to take the people down to Newport. A great many of the men .upon the mountain were armed. The pri soner now looks more pale and more poorly than the Zephaniah Williams I saw at the Royal Oak ; that is the difference I see. Thomas Guttery spoke at one of the meetings I was at. Zephaniah Williams was pre sent there. He said it was a good cause, and he men tioned some five articles. He-said the Charter was a good cause, if it could be got. Every poor man was to give his name, and stick true together, and " it should be got in spite of all hell." When we went from the mountain we went to Penycairn works, and from there to the Welsh Oak. All the throng were together there. I came on so far as to the entrance to the town, to Stow-hill ; then I ran off. One of the five articles Guttery spoke of was, to have the duty and taxes off. Another thing was, to have the poor-houses down. The o , her was, to have the poor as well as the rich to give their votes for Members of Parliament. These are all the articles I remember. I have heard this on other occasions. Zephaniah Williams was present. I hare heard him say the same. I never saw Zephaniah Wil liams after I left the mountain till this, if that is the . man. I can't swear to him. The witness was again pressed repeatedly to say whether the prisoner was the same man that he saw on the mountains, and to look again at him ; but he still persisted in his former state ment, that he was very much like the person, only that his face was much paler. Examined by Mr. Getteh-,-I saw about a dozen, fifteen, or twenty persons near Zephaniah Williams' house. There is no court or garden around the house. It is built on a common, without any wall or fence around. Rachael Howell (wife of the last witness) sworn— I saw Zephaniah Williams twice lam sure. I saw him the last, time the Saturday before the Chartist rise. I don't know where it was I saw him before. It .Pas in his own house on the Saturday: I. asked him what would we do for victuals when they took the men away ? He told me not to mind that, for he would take care of the women and children. I asked him to let me know. He said they would find shops for the women until the men came back. He did not say where the men were going to. The first time was at his own door ; it was a good bit before that time. He made a motion I did not understand. I thought he called me, and I went in. He asked me if I wanted a card, as far as I can remember. I said I wanted to know what was about the Chartists. I told him I would give my hus band's name in, if there was no harm in it. He told me there was no harm, and I gave my husband's name. Then he asked me if I would have a card ? I said" Yes ;" and he gave me one. He said the card would keep us without danger. I gave the card to my husband the Tuesday before they did rise, and he burnt it. I did not let my husband know I had taken the card. I saw Zephaniah Williams write my husband' s name on the card. I do not remember what else was on the card. I went on the way to go to chapel on the evening of Sunday, the 3d of November, about six o'clock. [The witness in other respects confirmed the testimony of the preceding witness as to th e i r h av i ng been stopped by the crowd near the prisoner's house, and her husband's being forced to go with them, and continued] : I then went home. I did not see my hus band again till the Tuesday evening. [The witness was requested to look at the prisoner at the bar, and sec if be was Zephaniah Williams.] I believe be-is the man, but there is a great deal of alteratio n in him. Cross-examined by Mr. Geach—The crowd was much greater on the other side of the turnpike-road than near the prisoner's house, and that was the reason I went on the side next the prisoner's house. Richard Hawkins sworn—l live at Blaine. lam a m i ne r. I have been in the Marines. I was a private a long time, and a corporal a long time. I know Ze el,iri,ll of the Rovql Oak. I re- I , tw t r l ib l d e agt p eis s l i e s ; o wt e ha e ssyk 's dnw h oottinv o ,trev n . se between six and seven in the even- I ing with my. brother-in-law, Isaac Deist. I went to see what was going on, and to pay 2s. I. owed when I was there last, two or three months before. There were , a good many people in the house. I saw Zephaniah Wil hams there. - He was talking to different people now and then. —I saw - hies go up stairs. He came down agail-i in a few minutes, and he, had chat:zed his dress. He had better clothds on when be went up than when he came down. Then he went to another little room by himself. I followed him in, in a few minutes. He told me go on. He was standing at the table, and I saw about twenty or thirty cartridges. I am not sure m. I as them up in ball i ap o e r not. I ( v i have tu take e used tmanyhat notice o a thousand d t h c e a m r doing were wi r madeli a et t ht rather eteolr:te.l papers than ctsul ci i t wn h pk o ow s iwitedbel l vr have nrp.da ballel u kV s i e nit d ; but am The Is haddon cartridges'tb before now.

The prisoner keeps a public-house, and sells beer and spirits. The sign is the Royal Oak. The prisoner is Zephaniah Williams. CI oss-examined by Mr. Geach.—The cartridges I saw at the prisoner's were not so long as those I had been in the habit of using. If they had contained ball they would have been longer. John Nichol Hawkins sworn.—l am a surgeon re siding in Newport. I was called in professionally on Monday, the 4th instant to Michaelstonevedoo, about eight o'clock, I know Pie-corner, that is near Sir Charles Morgan's park. I met near 100 men there, near the park gate. They were coming from Risca to Newport. They were on tha tram road. They were armed with pikes, and sticks, and clubs, and some tops of scythes fastened on sticks, and one sword. I did not see any guns. I know Zephaniah Williams. That is the prisoner at the bar. He was among those I saw at Pie-corner. He was the only person I saw there that I knew. I spoke to the prisoner first. I told him that they had better not go on—that there were three picquets of soldiers just above at my left, and begged them to return. The prisoner said, " Damn the soldiers," and for them to come on, and they would show what the colliers would do in Newport. In con sequence of this, I gave information to a Magistrate. I saw no more of the prisoner after. Henry Smith sworn.—l live with James Samuel at Llanelleth. A tram-road runs right by his door. My master keeps a beer-house. I remember Sunday, the 3d of November. I went to bed that night betwixt nine and ten. I was called'up again that night by James Samuel, my master. This was between twelve and one. I saw a great many people there. They were armed. I saw a person sitting near the fire-place. I heard my master talk to that person. He called him Mr. Williams, and he did answer. My master told meto go to the stable and put the tackle on the horse, and bring him to the train for Mr. Williams. Williams was present when he said so. I got the tram before the door, and then I went into the house and told my master I had got the train ready. Williams was in the room then. My master said " Come on, now," to the men that were in the house. Williams went out, and did go in the tram with three or four others. Williams told me to go on, and I did so. I stopped down at Crumlyn, at the bridge. That is about two miles from my master's house. We stopped to pull up the bridge to go on. Then we went down so far as Tynnycwm. Williams got out of the train where there is a beer-house kept by Henry Charles. There were a great many people. They were armed. I did not see Williams go out of the tram ; but I saw him walk ing about there. He stopped there an hour or two. It was light when I started. I know a place called Tyndee, about three and a half miles from Newport. I saw . Williams there ; he was hurrying the men along. He told them to walk alobg two and two upon the full tram-road ; that is the left-hand side coming down, and the men did as they were Ordered. They were armed then. I heard them fire at Tynnycwm. They halted in Sir Charles Morgan's park. I am not sure I saw Williams there. I went with the tram as far as the Waterloo machine. That is the nearest machitse to here. Mr. Morgan keeps that machine. I came this side of the machine : but I was forced to leave the train. I brought the horse down here to the Salutation. I did not put the horse up there, but at the stable above. I stopped looking about, and saw Williams turning back on the turnpiCe-roads coming away from the town to wards the machine. I am quite sure it was Mr. Wil liams that I saw in my master's house ;.that came down with me in the tram. The prisoner at the bar is that 'person. There is a difference in his looks. He looks a good deal worse now than he did then. I did hear firing in Newport while I was there; that was before I saw Mr. Williams come back, arid a great many more. I should think more than 100 ; they were armed. -It was not long after I heard the tiring that I saw them coming back. I hare been about three or four weeks in my master's employ. He usually entrusts me with his horses to drive. Cross-examined by Mr. Geach as to his knowledge of the nature of an oath. The witness gave the same answer as when he was examined by Mr. Phelps. James James sworn.—(This witness appeared to be very ill, and was accommodated with a ehhir,)—l live at. the Colebrook-vale. I am a miner. I know Ze phaniah Williams et the Royal Oelk, near Colebrooke vale works. I was at the Royal Oak on Sunday the 3d of November, between ten and eleven in the morn ing. I saw Zephaniah Williams in the room ; there were many other persons there. I was not in the room more: than ten minutes or a quarter of an hour. I went to the Royal Oak again at past three o'clock that day. I saw the prisoner there. There was a man speaking there then, he was a stranger to me. The prisoner waf in the room when he was speaking. Tile man said we must meet on the mountain at six o'clock in the evening. Zephaniah Williams said in Welsh the same thing.; He said we were to bring bread and cheese ►with us, because we should want some victuals before we came back. Ile said we should hear when we were going to the mountain what it was, we were to go for. He told us to bring something in our hands, but he did not tell what. He did not say what we were to bring the things for. I went to the mountain in consequence of ►hat lie said. The man that was there speak ing said that we must go, or we should be in danger. It was dark, and rained shocking there. Some of the men I saw there were armed. It was very dark there. I did not see Zephaniah Williams there. I staid on the mountain from an hour and a half to two hours. I went from the mountain down to the road and down to the tramroad. I saw Zephaniah Williams when I walked down a bit. When we got down by the new works (" Victoria") we stopped by the gate there. A man was talking .to Zephaniah 'Williams. He asked Williams what were we going down for. He said there was no danger in going down. The man answered, " No, I do hope that there is no danger that we do go down to be killed." The men were then stopped bach—a great many of them. We stopped there a few minutes. The men were all coming down then driving us and trying to go on. I did not go into any beer-house. There were hundreds of people there when I came up. I and two persons returned back to a little public-house there, about a mile ; it was the Newport side of Risca. That public-house was full of men. Some of those men were armed. I staid there two hours or more. There were many came in and drove me out ; they said " come on," " come out." We went out, and went on till we caught the rest in the park. Many hundreds of them came after us. I came on down below Stow church. When I came there the people were running back again, and I turned back and went home. I heard the firing, and I don't think it was half a minute before the people were running back, I was a member of the Chartist lodge which was held in Zephaniah Williams's house. I had a card given me. Williams gave me the card. 1 have got that card at home, I think. I kept it for safety. I have paid money. I did throw it into the plate on the table. Williams was present then. I never heard him say what the card was for. I have heard him say the money was to pay the delegates that were going about speaking about the country. I never heard what the delegates were to do. I know Mr. Davis. I re member going to Williams's house with eleven cards the boys gave me. I saw Williams there. I told him I had brought the cards in. I did not give the cards to Williams ; he was busy. He told me to go to his son Llewellin. I went to his son, he was in the kitchen, and we went into the long room. The son is about fifteen; or something like that. He (the son) took the cards, and pulled the names from them and put them on this paper. I saw him write what is upon this paper. Mr. Geach here objected to the course of examina tion, and quoted Phillips on Evidence in support of his view that the Counsel for the prosecution should not be allowed to put leading questions to hisownwitness, as they were supposed to have a previous bias against into the G m e u a u c t h h ) uf t contended u‘vt. the prisoner. In thispeuatsteingheint( that Mr. Phelps was ness the very words he wished him to give in evidence, and that too in a matter which did not legally affect the prisoner, inasmuch as it referred to conversations which took place between the witness and the prisoner's son, who was above the age of fifteen, and therefore crimi nally liable for his own acts, and not under the control of his father. Mr. Phelps, in reply, said he was somewhat surprised ; at the objection taken by Mr. Geach, as h e had it in ! e vidence that what the son did w as unde r th e di rect i on of the father—with his privity ; and therefore, though the son was responsible for his own acts, he (Mr. Phelps) had shown that they were both particeps criminis ; and if the offence could 'be brought home to r1.,(1 it 17: - To trriq.m•Me. m i 1) , ,r11 he in. J ,n.Davi, Jonathan, do. _lO. . kins, haulier ; 2;17. Abraham Thomas, collier ; 312. Thomas grown, do, ; 416. Iglus Davis, do. ; 482. John Davis, do. ; 484. William Davis.) All on that list were then workieg together but one—John Davis. I had attondod meetings at Williams's house before this list was made out. We had been told about making the lists before, at the meetings at Williams's. The eleventh was to go to the other ten, to get their sub scription in every month. John Davis was the only one in that list that did not work on the same level. (Pri • soner was requested to state why the line was drawn be tween the other names and William Davis.) He was the one that was to tro round to collect our subscriptions. I have heard that eleven names were given on the list that one might go round, as the others could not go round to bring their- subscriptions themselv e s. I did not hear captains Vie over ten. or any one el se , sa y aoy Tne men on thi s li s t this William Davis. Abraham Thomas, one of the men en this list, is dead. Cross-examined by Mr- Geach—l cannot read. But I kriew the number was 89, because I have often heard my number called over when I paid my subscription. I can swear to my name by the two J's. I had the paper in my pocket last night. I have not always car ried it about me since it was first written, because Mr. Jenkins had it, and gave it to John Davis. I saw another paper with my name at the top, and had all the same marks. I should not know the difference. I I have known the prisoner nearly nice months. So far as I know he has always been a peaceable man and a good neighbour. John Parsons sworn—l am a butcher. I live at. Pillgwently. I remember Monday, the 4th of No vember. I was in Newport that morning. I was on Stow-hill at about nine o'clock that morning. I saw a great many men coming down the hill ; they were armed with weapons of various descriptions. I have known the prisoner, Zephaniah Williams seven or eight years. I saw him that morning coming behind the crowd, about opposite the turnpike gate. There were four or five thousand men before him, and but very few behind him—not twenty I think. Those behind were not armed. I am certain the prisoner is the man I saw that morning. I saw him nearly as far to the Six Bells. I had heard firing th"at morning. It was after I saw him. Cross examined by Mr. Geach—The prisoner was not armed. • Mr. Phe;ps (addressing the magistrates) said he had en more witnesses ready to be examined, but submitted that he had already sufficient evidence to justify the mcgistratcs in committing the prisoner on the charge of sedition and treason. On being asked if there were any witnesses to be called for the defence, Mr. Geach replied that he had no witnesses to call. He 01r. Geach) thought that Mr. Pholps bad suffi cientty proved his case. The Chairman, addressing Williams, told him that this Was the time for him to say anything why he should not be committed. The prisoner, scarcely lifting his head, in a low agi ,ated tone, said " I have nothing to say ;" but he spoke in so low a tone that the Court did not catch his reply, and the Chairman repeated his words, when the pri soner again said, tremulously, " 1 dO not wish to say anything." The witness, Richard Hawkins, was then recalled and re-examined : I said before that a cartridge could be fired without a lock or flint, with a match. The cer tridges I saw did not appear to have a ball ; they were too short ; they might have had a hall, but I did not see it.—(Cartridges shown to the . witness.) Those cartridges are like what I saw ; they were not tied. The Chairman then addressed the prisoner nearly as follows :—" Zephaniah Williams, the Court, as you must be aware, as well as every one else, has given your case a most attentive consideration for eighteen hours. I have known you many years, and I should be very sorry to say anything to add to the distress under which I see you now suffer : but it is my duty to tell you that the Magistrates We of opinion that there has been suf ficient evidence adduced against you to justify them in committing you to take your trial for the crime of high treason and sedition." Mr. Geach made application on the part of the pri soner that lie m;ght be allowed to sleep without being handcuffed to another person, as from his appearance, and his representations to him (Mr. Gcach), he would not promise to go through the ordeal which he had to endure unless he could get some rest. The Chairman said, " Mr- Geach, your application is a very proper one ; but this is hardly the proper quarter in which to make it. The Superintendent of Pate, Mr. Hopkins, has the charge of the prisoners, and his instructions are to take every necessary precaution for the security of the prisoners, and that every attention that humanity could suggest should be allowed them, consistent with their safe custody. The prisoner shall be removed to Monmouth Gaol at the earliest possible moment." The prisoner was allowed to speak with his legal ad •viscr, Mr. Geach. Be was then takk.n away in custody, scarcely able to walk out of the room. The wretched man refused again to take any refreshniant during the ear. The Court adjourned at seven o'clock. EMBELLISHMENTS OF PARIS.— This seems to be the golden age for artists in Paris. The mo hutment% of all sorts, in course of construction or em behishment, find them ample occupation ; and palaces And temples are alike enriched with their productions. Amongst the various labours of the kind in progress, is one which is attracting peculiar notice. An Italian, named Regneri, is engaged in painting in jic:xo the hemicycle of Saint Nicolas du Chardonnet. Admis- sion is given to all artists to view his labours, as to a school ; and this Italian style of painting is expected to come into extensive practice in the decoration of churches. The Place do la - Concorde trill soon be OGC of the most richly embellished, as it has long been one of the finest sites, in the trorld. Statues and fountains are springing up on every hand. The huge pedestals which encumbered the Pont do la Concorde are in course of demolition ; and will be replaced by others better harmonising with the graceful architecture of the bridge, and supporting candelabra for gas-lights, in such manner us to connect the Palace of the Legis lative 'Body with the general system of decoration, having for its extreme points the Tuileries and the ch of the Etoile -in one direction, and on the other Mag , lttlen and the facade of the Palais Bourbon. The fine fountain on the Place de l'Opera is likewise .com pletad ; and the play of its waters, which gush at once from four springs, representing the Seine, the Saone, the Garonne, and the Loire, has been tried in presence of the Prefet of the Seine. Near to this fountain will be ere:l2d the monument to Moliere, towards which the Minister of the Interior hasgiven a sum of twenty thou sand francs, and marble. to the value of ten thousand more. We may also add, that the Civil List has given commissions to the artists of Paris for copies of pictures by the great masters, to be sent to the churches and museums of the departments. It must be manifest, after this, that if the arts are not progressing in France, it is not for want of the encouragement of pstronage.— Allienceum. THE FAGGING SYSTEM.—" What boy is more to be pitied than a junior boy? The Feign: system described in Oliver Twist is nothing compared to that adopted in public schools. People may say what they will of the beneficial effect which it produces on the minds of those who are subjected to it—we contend that to breed a gentleman's son up like a tiger is the readiest way to make a beast of him.—Comic Latin Grammar. On Tuesday morning a carpenter, named Thos. Sharpe, in crossing from Trafalgar-square to Spring. gardens, was knocked down by a cab, and, the off wheel passing over his left wrist, severed it completely through, with the exception of a slight strip of skin. The unfor tunate man was removed to Charing-cross Hospital. A most brutal act was on Monday last com mitted on board the Revenge, 78, Hon. Captain Walde grave, lying at Spithead. The waterman of a shore. boat, who had been observed handing some article on board the Revenge, contrary to the regulations of the ship, was brought up and reported to Captain Hope by the sentry at the gangway, and immediately ordered out of the ship. The sentry accordingly led him away, m and w n ,i he t n h e close most to malicious the s t a r b a o n a d r d premeditated gan w a y 'themwananteerr: pushed him headlong over the ship's side, a distance of more than 18 feet. The poor fellow fell with frightful violence into the boat below, seriously injured. The Waterman was instantly secured, and handed over to the civil authorities at Portsmouth, and will doubtless re ceive the full punishment that his cowardly conduct deserves.—llamp shire Chronicle. TILE SOWING SEASON.—In the Weald and Mid Kent several places are so much inundated, that the wheat season has been lost, and the land left for Lent corn ; but in other places, where there has not been a superabundance of water, the wheat has come up and looks very healthy. The present mild weather, it is supposed, will bring it sufficiently forward to enable it to stand the frost without danger. In East Kent most of the wheat is in, and that which is up looks thriving and well, In this neighbourhood, where h o p s are so much cultivated, the farmers are seldom so for.. ward in the solving season as in sonic others, and the land is now in a bad condition, being quite saturated with water.—Maidstone Gazette.
