His arrival has led to a mis understanding between quad Effendi and the French Ambassador, who wished to present the il lustrious exile to the Sultan. The Turkish Govern ment replied that there was no example of a Mus sulman's having been presented to the Grand Seignior by a European. M. de Lavalette was pleased to look on the above-mentioned communi cation as a personal insult. A contract has been concluded between the Porte on the one side, and Missiani, Stefavonitz, Ralli, Maurojanini, and Za rili on the other, for the liquidation of the affairs of the Bank. " The business of. the Bank," says the Triester Zeitung, " may be considered." M. d'Ozeroff has been nominated an Imperial Russian Counsellor of State, and his protest against the fir nan concerning the Holy Sepulchre has met with he approval of the Russian Cabinet. longer." Then the chief appeared to see the extent of the wrong done to his soldiers, for those who heard him said the words of exhortation came hoarsely from his throat. Yet even he, on whom the hopes of England and India were centred, had no power to relieve them. Bound hand and foot by strict interdictory laws, his office was a mockery. Four years now have passed since then, and another British regiment has duly pined its time upon that weary rock. They now return to India, stalking shadows of whilom stalwart soldiers, the living proofs of silent mi sery and neglect. If any man doubts my story, let him move that the commanding officer of the regiment now about to be re lieved be called on for a statistical report of the march of his corps to Poonah ; and if one-half of those who lately garrisoned Aden preserve their ranks for 10 miles, I will denounce myself and all I have written.

Munster denied that the operations in which M. Beaucousin had been engaged ere of a gambling character. The Advocate -General considered, on the contrary, that they were of that nature, and that consequently the plaintiff was not entitled in law to re cover. He, however, spoke in rather severe terms of M. Beaucousin for refusing payment of gambling debts, which are always considered debts of honour. The Tribunal, after declaring that the Tribunal of Com merce was without jurisdiction in the case, as there had been no commercial transactions, decided that, as M. Munster knew well that for two years M. Beaucousin had been engaged in gambling speculations, he could not recover, and it accordingly dismissed the appeal. ARRIVAL OP A HUGE BOA CONSTICTOR AND ITS YOUNG ONES.—On Sunday last there arrived at this port, in the Ship Arrow, Captain Wyatt, from Para, a huge serpent of the boa genus, respecting which we have re ceived some interesting particulars. The reptile is at least 18 feet in length, and was caught by some of the natives on the banks of the "mighty Amazon." Before it came into the possession of Captain Wyatt, it had satisfied its appetite by swallowing a full-grown goat. On the day the vessel left Para, the captain and crew were surprised to find that the serpent had given birth to 36 young ones. The "snakelets" were about two feet each in length, and in six weeks they have only grown about an inch in length. The report of this uneohydoim:saftpreMe.drbra' an agent de change.

During the first cruise, before the Phaeton and Are thusa joined the squadron, the Leander took her place before the Thetis and Indefatigable. In a breeze which gave the Leander a speed of 10 knots, she gained on the Thetis 167 fathoms an hour. On this occasion the Thetis gained on the Indefatigable 577 fathoms an hour. In breezes which gave the Phaeton a speed of from 4 to 7 and 84 knots, she gained on the Arethusa 500 fathoms an hour. The Arethusa, under similar circumstances, gained on the Leander about 300 fathoms •an hour. When the squadron was in order of sailing, with the wind on the port beam, in force 7 (that is, a m o d era t e gale, in which the same ship could just carry close hauled double reefs, jib, &c.), with squalls, the Leander, under treble-reefed fore and mizen topsails, double-reefed main topsail, main topgallant sail, and courses, was going 10. knots.

He was backed by an immediate wager of 101., but in addition to this many small and large sums were bet upon the matter. He had to go from Halifax to Sowerby-bridge and back, in the space of an hour and a half, bearing a load of beef weighing nine stones, or 144 pounds. The distance there and back is about five miles, but what would ren der the la bour more difficult is the steepness of the road back for a considerable distance. However, the man won the wager, and with apparent ease, being back at the start ing point in one hour and twenty minutes from his set ting out.—Leeds Mercury. EDUCATION OF THE JEWS 40 YEARS AGO.---Who ever among us is enabled to carry his memory back some thirty or forty years, must remember the system adopted—if such a mode of instruction as then prevailed could be dignified with the title of system—in imparting what was then called education to the children of the poorer classes. In a second-floor back room, or more frequently in a back attic, sat an aged man, past labour, who, having a beard, was dignified with the high-sound ing title of Rabbi. Around this aged teacher, in such foetid chamber, with the thing called a bed in the corner, sat, or rather squatted, a number of ill-clad and, with but few exceptions, dirty children, who were being taught Hebrew, and to translate some portions of the Pentateuch and prayer-book, in a jargon composed of various portions of the languages of the countries which the said Rabbi might have visited during his migration from the land of his birth— (Poland. —Jewish Chronicle. SHOCKING MURDER IN OUPAR.—It is our duty to re cord an instance of this awful crime which has occurred in our community. The victim in this case is a boy of five or six years of age, and the perpetrator of the horrid deed is his own mother. It appears that Janet Keddie or Johnstone had been drinking hard for some days pre viously, and on Tuesday evening, in a drunken frenzy (irritated, it is supposed, by the refusal of the child to go for more whisky), she seized and maltreated him till the poor child died under her treatment, as ha was found in bed evidently strangled. The wretched mother is in the hands of the authorities, and in due course will be tried for the murder. At present she is still suffering from delirium tremens. Her husband and the father of the boy is a book distributor, and was from home at the time of the murder. We understand that the woman Keddie has oftener than once already, when under the influence of liqueur, attempted to take away her own life. Fife Herald. MRS.

The celebrated cantatrice, who is at present residing at Dres den, has promised to visit Stockholm in the Holy Week, to take part in two religious concerts, which are to be given in the cathedral for the benefit of the poor. In these concerts Mendelssohn's oratorio of St. Paul, and Hamden oratorio of Messiah, with the instrumentation of Mozart, are to be performed. They have never yet been executed in piiblic in Stockholm. ST.

OF A soN. eOyenesttheer, Es q. in Wilton- crescent, tho wife of S. f' L AN IMPUDENT SCOUNDREL —The Tribunal of Correc tional Police has tried a man, named Verault, for a very impudent piece of swindling. He, on New Years'-clay, went round to all the customere-of a manufacturer, named Poubirau, and, pretending to be his porter, and wishing him all the compliments .f the season, obtained presents of money from them. When the real Simon Pure arrived, he was told, to his great mortification, that nothing could be given to him. In his defence, the accused maintained he had done nothing wrong. "I had the trouble," said he, "to go to the customers, wearing out my boots and a . pair of Berlin gloves ; I had the trouble to wish them many happy returns of the day, and that they might go to Paradise at the end of their lives : and yet it is pretended that I was not to ac cept the money they offered ! Why, I had clearly earned it—and you know, M. President, that we should give to Caesar what belongs to Ceesar !" Unmoved by this reasoning„ the Tribunal condemned the man to three months' imprisonment. GOOD PROFITS ON A CONSIGNMENT.--In the month of May last, Mr. John Wilson, an extensive boot and shoe manufacturer in Bishopwearmouth, sent out 3201. w or th of boots and shoes to Australia, and last week Mr. Wil son was gratified by the receipt of a cheque upon the Australian bank for the handsome sum of 9251. The boots and shoes had sold readily, and realized the above enormous profit. Mr. Wilson has sent out a still larger stock for the same market. OF A DAUGHTER.

LONDON : P r i nted and Published by MURDO YOUNG it 2, of No. 112 , Strand, Printer, at The Sun Office, N 0.,...." 0 1 Strand, in the Precinct of the Savoy, in th e counw Middlesex, Tuesday, January 25,1863. MONTENEGRO. The .number of men to be employed against Montenegro is given at 34,000. Omer Pasha is at Scutari, at the head of 17,000 men, of whom 5,000. are Arnauts (irregular troops). Omer Pasha has purchased 60 pair of silver-mounted pistols to distribute among the chiefs who do not take up arms against him. Everythin g has been done to rouse the fanaticism of the Bosnian Mussulmans against the Montenegrines. It is rumoured here that Austria has counselled the Porte to give up its designs on Montenegro. The Triester Zeitung, of the 19th, learns from Ca ttaro that the Turks have already assumed the offensive against Montenegro. Six hours' march from the frontiers is a Turkish military post called Veleme, in the Banjaner district, in the south of the Herzegovoina, and there eir-ht battalions of BosniaclA.assulmans have pitched their tents, and are waiting until the - other troops come up. The Triester Zeitung further informs us that the Imperial Adjutant-General Kellner has had the Austrian frontier-post of Dragal, "on the Montenegrin frontier,fortitied." Now Dragal, which is in the north of Austrian Albania, close to the Herzegovina, and at a . considerable distance from Montenegro, was fortified some time since. Gene ral Kellner is on his way back to Vienna. The political-juridical ordinances for Hungary have appeared in the Oest Correspondenz ; but they must be studied before any opinion can be given on their merits. After a superficial perusal, it strikes us that unusual influence and power have been given to the Statdholders.
