TURIN, Oct. 13.—8 y a notification, signed by Cavalie e de Winderkhern, Commandant of the Modenese Dragoons, and dated Carrara, Oct. 6, 1857, Martial law has been once more proclaimed in the city and commune of Carrara, of the cause of which the Messaggiere di Modena of the 9th instant gives the following account. According to that journal, the Duke of Mode na had raised the state of siege in the Carrara district last December because he thought that Vie punish. ment inflicted on not a few disturbers of public order had been sufficient to repress the auda city of those wicked people who infest the city and commune of Carrara, but the con fidence, cherished by this most clement Prince had been far from realised, for after a fe v m,onths asiaults wounds, and mur iers were lint on'y reiom menced, but h a d b een so f requen tly perpetrated as to give good cause for alarm to the peaceable inha bitants and to induce the Government, however unwillingly, to provide anew, by exceptional mea sures, against this rising evil. Things had arrived at this state on the occasion of the departure of a great part of the garrison of Carrara for the aut umna l manoeuvres at Reggio, when some evil-disp o p ersons summoned courage enough to insult som e so ldi ers i n th e theatre on the evening of the 27th o f th e l as t mon th, and at the same time to expr ess th e i r contemp t f o r the whole honourable class o f w hi c h th ey f or med a part. These provocations excited a confusion, in which a soldier and several c i v ili ans were s li g htly w mimed, but the fact was not devoid of an appearance of pre meditation, since one of those arrested threw away a dagger with which he was armed when taken prisoner by thepolice. The moderation of the troops in this instance was probably mistaken for weakness, for in the afternoon of the next day (the 28th) a fresh deed of extraord•nary atrocity was committed. Three individuals belonging to the reserve of the army, that is to say—Serjeant Ribolini and privates Zeni and Rocchi—were on the high road of Grag nani, near Carrara, and not far from their own houses, quiet and unarmed, when they were sud denly attacked with stones and daggers by seven young men known to belong to the city or neigh bourhood. The two first named were killed out right, but Rocchi survived two days, and identi fied one of the assaFsins, wh had been arrested by the police. Five others of the gang have since been captured by the Sardinian police, and their extradition demanded by the Modenese Govern ment, in virtue of existing conventions, and the 1 seventh, although well known, is still at large. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. —(This Day.) WESTMINSTER. GROSS OUTRAGE IN TOTHILL FIELDS PRISON,,Emma Turner, a girl about 20 years old, was brought up on a warrant from Tothill-fields Prison, Westminster, in which she bad been t•offering a term of imprisonment for disorderly conduct, charged with the following gross out rage : Mr. Joseph Samuel Levies, a member of the College of Surgeon., stated that he was the medical officer at preeent, doing duty for the gentleman who now holds that appointment at the Prison. It was his duty t o s as informed wer e t ha inspect th e whole of the prisoners and to a tt en d t o a ll u was unwell, h e wen t to the prisoner's cell, and itroired how sh e was, when she flew a t him, 'tru c k hi m a vio lent blow on the side of the head, t ore hi s can with her nails, and kicked him. On th o 24 the o prisoner t the 21st of S e ptd in b er , on being h of October she again struck him on the face, and a day or two afterwards she emptied the filthy cont en t of a cell-vest/A over the lower part of his dress. Compl a inant appealed to the visiting justices of the prison, but they refused to interfere, cn tt,e ground that h e was no t th e regularly appointed and paid medical ()facer of the prison. Prisoner's conduct during the last week had been very g ,, od, and as she really appeared to be extremely sorry for her conduct, he did not wish to press th 5 charge with severity, but he had felt it an iniperseive duty to seek the protection of the law. Mr. Paynter remarked at some length upon the extra ordinary and unprovoked character of the case, the num ber of cutragea which bad recently taken place in this prison, and the evident want of proper discipline.

Smith, Elder, and Co. The days of Queen Elizabeth have always offered a tempting epoch to poets and romancists. The love tragedy of the great Earl of Leicester has been immortalised by the pen of Sir Walter Scott, and • authors of every degree have found, in the excitement of public events or the stirring , lives of the great men of the time, a most attrac tive combination of the authenticity of history, and the startling contrasts of romance. The rulers of that day were of no common order. Elizabeth herself, Henry of Navarre, and William of Orange were characters that could not fail to leave an im press on their times, and their subordinates, whether civil or military, numbered many of the most eminent names is the records of camps and cabinets. And great as is the cele brity of the statesmen and the warriors, it is ec!ipsed by the stars of another sphere; and Burleigb, Leicester, and Sully, Make, Don John of Austria, and Philip Sydney, do not fill the first rank in the age of Kepler and Tycho Brahe, of Raleigh and Cervantes, of Bacon and Shakspeare. To this age, to all its warfare of nations and opi nions, to all its busy strife and plottinge, to the society of its worthies and notabilities of every degree, to the streets of its quiet London and the company of its uncertain post carriers, even to its quaint phraseology and typography, the reader is transported by the chronicle before us, under the guidance of Thomas of Swarraton. He has taken for his hero one whose brilliant talents and suc cesses, whose high favour at court, and with the people, whose early death within the walls of the fatal Tower, especially fit him for the hero of a romance. The Earl of Essex, the last of Q ueen Elizabeth's favourites is " the Noble Traytour" of these volumes, and his memory finds ate in g e n i ous and devoted defender in their author. He repre sents him, as indeed most historians have done, as brave, impetuous, and ambitious to a peri!ous de gree, and from the frankness and openness of his nature, as well as from his haughty and imperious temper, quite unable to compete with t'e cold and crafty policy of a court. Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth, however, receives some severe censures and is represented as having, by her inconsistency and harshness, mainly contributed to her favourite's downfal. Two of the notabilities of the day, Francis Bacon and Walter Raleigh, are not shown in very favourable colours ; the latter chiefly appears as the rival and enemy of Essex. The story opens at Cambridge, with a game of tennis, anti leads the victor of the tennis court through the "paths of glory," which his ambition foretold, to the grave, which he could scarcely have anticipated, at the close of his career. Philip Sidney, the Bayard of Eiglish chivalry, is introduced in the first volume, an 1 his death at Zutphen recorded at its close. His youthful widow subsequently became Countess of Essex, and lost her seeone husband on the scaffold. The great drama tist himself forms pat t of the motley company : we meet him dining with Lord Southampten and his friends at the " Groat Harry ;" again at the Globe Theatre, where the presence of the Queen herself cannot make him forget his part of counterfeit royalty ; and lastly at the trial of the two Earls he is represented as watching " the death struggle be tween the all-powerful law of offended England and the gently youth who was his e irliest friend." A good part of the story is occupied with the fertunee of the family of Sir Thornes Chen , y, a country knight of old decent, well versed in the science of heraldry. He is a favourable specimen of the Eogl'sh country gentleman of three centuries ago, and his wife, Lady Erz ibeth, is a fitting comp 'llion picture. Their only son William is the schoolfellow and especial friend of the Earl of Essex, and in the troubles that befal his father, he joins Sir Francis Drake's expedition t tee West Indies, in the hope of increasing his fortune. He afterwards joins Essex in his disistrols visit to Ireland. The author eagerly shows how sickness and mortification, combined i•h rho malice of his opponents, overthrew the Earl's judgment in h's mad attempt to excite the populace and seize the palace. He represents the Queen as stern and implacable ; but it is somewhat callous he should have ornitt , -(1 the romantic story of the ring, which has been sufficiently well established to find a place in the pages of history. The min-ir clyttacters of the day, as a class, have been familiarieed to the reader by many a gifted pen, and V.e present 1 writer is not unskilful in drawing ti:em. Here is a description of the Queen iu her earlier days. There wag a maidenly bashfulness in her gait: there was a prudence in her conduct : there was an evidence of lam ruing and thoughtfulness in her talk : wisdom for self, counsel for others : with an offset of genial kindness in the gesture of hat early life, which at once secured for her the hearts of her people. She was (=b they said) a fre,h Spring after the stormy Winter of her Sister's reign. And the promise of her youth : has she yet betrayed it? In her counsels she has engaged the most worthy or the most zealous. Her severity, is it not just? Her clemency, are there not few who need it? Yon will admit that, amidst the general comtnotions of Europe, so wild and fearful at this epoch, her realm rests profoundly. Neither the subtlety of the serpent Mother-Queen of Fr.m.-”, Cathe rine of Medicis, her the Barabbas policy of her whilorn brother-ha-law, remorseless Philip of Spain, shall affect her while she rules in—and not over—the consciences of her people ! The fo'lowing is a picture of her Majesty at Court : The trumpets sound ! The doors of the Privy chamber open. Ushers are seen pacing backwards clouds of muslin and lace float about; a strong odour of Civet is perceived. Gold stick and silver stick bend to the ground. The seven Gentlemen, the Lord Chamberlain, yea, the Old Hi g h Treasurer himself , fell on their very knees. The rest bow low, very low, and repeatedly. Silence is audible in the tread of Majesty. erect heal and firm stop, the Virgin Queen of England walks towards her Throne. The Ladies of the Court prepare to arrange themselves around. " H a ! we had forgotten," quoth Elizeboth ; and, turn ing to the kneeling gentlemen, draws out the rapier of the nearest, placing it suocessively on the shoulders of each. " Rise up, Sir Walter Ralegh !" " An the tide float him he'll rise, and high enough," saith one. " Sir Francis Vere." " Sir Horace Vere." " Vera 7 De Vero, verily ! Amen ! amen !" " Sir Christopher Hatton." " Hat on ! eh ? and i' the presence ! Fio ! fie ! Sir Kit !" " Sir Lamprey Ledger." " And he'll enter that pon'orth in 's book new, and write ' knight' on each page ! 'Twill be hard now but he'd tit up till that mark of royal f a v o u r come to a noble at least.' " Sir Toby Fiegis." "Marry, the Queen bath figged Sir Toby !" " Sir Jasper Plum." " An her Grace would fish for red herrings now ! Surely these carpet knights 'll make sorry champions should a war break out." " Silence !" " By my troth and holidame, Master Cecil, thon'rt out witted. Her Grace hath dubbed the Gentles before the Grocers, maugre thy gross policy." " Hush !" " Mum 1 An the vixen Queen double not after the old fox Treasurer, my name's no longer Richard Tarleton." She passes on, glancing at her old Chancellor. Strange woman ! His confusion is her triumph ! " May it please you Highness," says Sir Francis Vere, " my former suit remembered—" " God's body, Knight ! is't not honour enough for one day to be dubbed—and by our own hand, too, oh? An thou'lt be a Lord, sirrah l E'en wait our pleasure ! Whom have we here?" " 'Tis the worshipful company of Merchant Tailors, may it please you Grace." And here the worshipful com pany crawled humbly ou their knees, presenting their petition. It was a wordy document, tedious and selfish as you would expect, yet fairly engrossed withal ; and setting forth how that the woolstaplers, drapers, lacemakers, and such kindred crafts, their charges being groat and grievous, loft them (her Highness's petitioners and most bounden bedesmen) little Profit and still less content. " God gi' ye good e'en, gentlemen, both I" saith the Queen. " An they lack two o' the score there b just nine to the man I By Mary ! the woman bath fitted the Tailor ! Grace hath no need of the natural wit ! Bess shall wear Dick's cap and bells! The fool's sceptre and the Queen's bauble : Handy-dandy, both's so like neither, you can' t toll t'other from which !" The following extract relates a well*.nown quarrel between the Queen and the Earl of Essex : And there was talk that day of Ireland ; how a discreet Governour should presently be sent, for it bath ever been a difficulty to our Statesmen how to rule that disorderly realm. And the Lords spake their minds : one praising Sir William Knollys, another vaunting Sir George Carew. And her Highness was for Sir William, but my Lord for Sir George. At d this fanned up the smoking flax of Essex's wrath ! for the Queen chafed him, harshly char B ing that he would thrust Carew on that desperate business to the end he might rid himself of an enemy ; whereas he ought to have honoured his uncle Knollys with so excellent a dignity ! And the Earl, who hal contained himself to the utter most, could hold no more, his indignation was poured out! 'Twas as ranniog sulphur whereon a live coal falls. With a fierce and contemptuous countenance, flushed and glar ing on her, he turned o' th' heel to leave the closet. " Go, and be hanged !" screamed her Grace, striking my Lord on the ear with an ontstretche 1 palm. " Go !" Verily, there is no tempest comparable to the passionate indignation of a Prince : nor yet at any time is it so un seasonable as when it lighteth upon those who might ex pect a harvest of their careful and painful labour The Earl of Nottingham was a Nobleman born. He was an honourable rival of Essex in glory. He was a kind man, moreover, and ono (though not a courtier, sir), wise and wary enough. "Go to, my Lord !" quoth he, endeavouring to hurry the flaming Earl from the presence. " Go to, my dear Lord 1 For the sake of"--- "My Lord !" stammered out Essex, his hand yet on his sword-hilt. "Hush ! Go to !" said the valorous old pallor, gently removing the treasonable hand from its dangerous place. " My Lord ! Such an act !- from het"-- " Good, my Lord ! no more !" " Had her boisterous fire"-- " Dear Lord ! your pardon !" continued Nottingham, now at the door. " Have a care !" And the hangings were closed by those solemn Ushers ; they bowing to the Noblemen as unmoved as ever. A short silence within. A dead hum as of voices whis pering. Elizabeth was eho shocked at her violent aul self-degra4ing act 2—at that intolerable wrong she had done both to herself and to the Earl. Anon she withdraws into her privy closet. There, alone, did she reflect at all ? Essex was very pale when my Lord Southampton, hearing from Rale i gh somewhat of all this, met him in the ante- TOM. " How is't, nun?" said he, grasping the Earl's right hand, p'ncing his left on my Lord's shoulder. Trembling with excitement, Essex could scarcely, and but in curt speech tell his tale. "Not only broken all laws of affection"- " Fear not:" " False, inConstant, beguiling pleasures"- " Go to !" "I was never proud till she sought to make me too base." " Patience, dear Essex Patience ! Her Grace" " Nay, nay ! She which governs this world is weary of me, and I of the world !" The author, in his quaint and characteristic pre face, apologises for the darns and patches in his tapestry, but they must be severe critics who take exception to parts, when the general effect i,s so good. The author has completely identified' himself with the age and epoch of which he writes, Ms very mottoes being invari ably selected from plays whose very names are almost extinct, and the labour of spelling in' such an antediluvian manner cannot have been trifling to a writer of modern habits. The imita tion is well kept up, and the writer never descends from his stilts, even the title page being in accord ance with the quaintness of the style. As a his torical romince the narrative is highly interesting, but as a picture of life, three centuries ago, it is of a higher value, and the authbr, besides the dramatic interest of his tragedy, has undertaken the labours of another department, and may claim credit for the brilliancy and variety of his stags aceemories, and the fidelity and success of his scene painting. Naval and Military *lnteWgence. Her Majesty's ship Ganges, 84, sailing two-decker, Captain Fulford, flag of Rear-Admiral R. L. Baynes, 0.8., is under orders to leave Spithead this morning for'the Pacific station, on which the Admiral has been appointed Commander-in-Chief. Rear-Admiral Bruce awaits his relief in the Mo narch, 84, at Callao. The Dennis Brundit47, from Caldera, arrived. at Liverpool, spoke the Champion of the Seas, Black Ball clipper, Captain M'Kirdy, having on board the 97th Regim.nt for India, on the morning of the Bth of September, in lat. 9.6 S., long. 31.15 W., and received some provisions from her. Cap tain 11/Pliirdy writes that " there has not been the slightest sicluidss, and the officers and troops are quite like a happy family." Two days previously the Dennis Brundiit saw a very large clipper in lat. 13.27 W., steering to the east ward supposed to be the James Baines, another of the Black Rill line, and having on board the 20th Regiment for India. Both ships passed th Needles at 6 p.m. of i the Bth of August, and the tug boats left them on the lltb. Captain M'Kirdy's letter conclu les, "God be praised for all His mercies. These ships look like 70 to 75 days only if the Bay of Bengal doesn't bother us." The Hannibal, 91, screw two-decker, is ordered to be undockcd at Por' smouth and dismantled. She is to be brought forward as an advanced ship in the steam reserve. The Mars, 80, screw, was yesterday towel higher up She'srness harbour. She will go on trial as soon as she ra ‘n ba got ready—no doubt towards the lat ter end of next week. The Persian, 12, sailing sloop Of war, Com mander °bads, will this day, Saturday, hoist Ler two lower ma-ts iu. Carpenters and caulkers are actively engaged in giving her a thorough caulking, &c. She will, however, have to go into a dry dock at She:rneFs ' if it is only to clean the barnacles otr, accumulate l through having been, some time in ordinary (River Medway.) The Bacchante, 51, screw, now building unct3r Shannon's shed, is getting well forward, and by April, 1858, will be ready for launching. She is sister ship to Shannon, of 2,640 tns, with the same armament and machinery. The Diadem, 32, screw, Captain (steel!) Moorsom. The new balance valve has been sent down to Ports mouth from the engineering establi,hrnent of Mes-rs. Mauds'ay, Field, and C.t., and by Tueldoty next the Diadem will be enabled to 'amine her trial at the meamrel mile at Stokes Bay. Her heavy shot have been shifted aft, to bring her as much as possible by the stern, which, looking at her fulness forward, will be considerably in her favour. The screw will be well immersed, and the bluff of her bows be 4 .ter lifted. The Renown, 91, in charg) of Mr. Robert Nicoll, chief engineer, is ordered t h-tul out of Sheerness Basin on Monday next, and go ou trial again about Wednesday, the Admiralty not can si lering, on her last trial, that she had been kept long enough on full steam to ascertain her real speed. Th 3 Sprightly, tender, Master Commander George Allen, has beenplaced at the service of Rear Admiral Baynes, whose flag flies at the mizrn of the Ganges, 84, Captain John Fulford, at Ports momh. She sails to-day for the South Pacific, and has been fitted with spare sets of pennants belong ing to Clifford's patent boat-lowerin4 apparatus. The Well'ng on, 72, Captain John Moore, was yesterday taking in more ballast, to bring her wing pumps un , ler water. She will be reported Toady for ,ea on the 25th inst., and sail from Sheerness about the Ist prArium. She is still short of her com plement.

The Caradoc brought the Bombay ma 1, which was forwarded on the afternoon of the 9th to Marseilles by the French steampacket Meandro. A summary of the intelligence was despatched froni Malta to Cagliari at 6 a.m. on the Bth by Her Majesty's steamgun-vessel Coquette ' fortelegraphic communication to London. Up to noon on the 9th of October neither the Calcutta nor the Aus tralian mail had reached Suez. The outward mail for Australia left that place on the 27th of Sept. in the Colombian.

The Princess went on to Alexandria the same afternoon in the Cephise, French postal steamer, which conveyed likewise James Brant, Esq. (and family), recently promoted from Erzeroom to be British Consul at Damascus, and Prince Bahadour of Oude and suite. The Hon. Victor Houlton, Chief Secretary to the Govern ment of Malta, returned by the Cephise. The screw-steamers, with general cargoes, which touched at Malta between the 2d and the 9th of October, were—the Alps, from Liverpool and Gibraltar, for Syra, Constantinople and Smyrna the Damascus, from C o nstantinople, Smyrna, and Alexandria, for Tunis, Gibraltar, and Liverpool ; the Flora, from Odessa, Constantinople, and Smyrna for Gibraltar and London ; the Waniebeck from Newcastle and Gibraltar, bound to Smyrna: with damage to machinery. The Araxes steamer arrived at Malta from Alex dria on the Bth, having onboard Captain Alexander and the crew of the Persian screw steamer, lately purchased by the Pasha of Egypt for the purposes of a yacht. She left Malta the same night for Tunis, Gibraltar, and Liverpool. The Aleppo steamer, from London for Constanti nople, vrrived ou the 9th. Our Malta correspondent states, also, that in pqr sua,nce of instructions received from Lieutenant Colonel Harness, R.E., was to proceed to India by .

She had on board the Q and J batteries of artillery, and Lieut.-Colonel Turner troop of Horse Artillery, the whole under the corn. mand of Lieut.-Calonel Riddel. Both officers and men were in the best health and spirits, and anxious to arrive at their destination. The were deriving great benefit from the light fatigue clothing and straw hats provided for the voyage. The Mauritius steamer arrived at the Mauritius on the 29th August from the Portsmouth and tha Cape with 34 officers and 700 rank and file, 93d. Highlanders, and proceeded to India. The Eng land steamship arrived at the Mauritius on the same day from East, London, Cape of Good Hope, with 28 officers and 517 men of her Majesty's 89th Regiment. The Madras steamer conveyed 400 of th 3 13th Light Infantry from the Cape of Gool Hope to India. The steamship Bahiana put into Lisbon on the 11th Oct , ber with loss of boats, &c.

Dyneley's battery company for Calcutta, has completed her arrangements for the voyage and is to commence shipping the siege train to-day. Owing to the damage done to the Austria in the 1 to gele, which compelled her to put back in a crip pled state to Portsmouth, it is thought that the steam clipper Princess Charlotte, which has been daily expected in Cork, will be employed to take her troops to India, and that the Jura will remain in Queenstown to take the remainder of the 18th Royal Irish, which were to have sailed by the Princess Charlotte. . The following appointments were made yesterday at the Admiralty : Li-mtenanta—T. N. Chapman, to the Henn ; and A. A. Smith, to the Persian.

THE BELFAST TEA FRA.UDS. Acconts from 13elfxst, dated yesterday evening, supply the following proceedinga in connexion with Vie recent frauds on the Customs. The two pri i-oners, Messrs. Henley and Harbison, have, it will be seen, been committed for trial, Henley, how ever, being admitted to bail, but Harbison still remaining in custody : " Few matters connected with the commerce of this town have excited more widespread interest than the recent tea frauds of John Jatnes Moore. Cowing as it (Lei cl3se on the heels of the comwis sion of inquiry into the Belfast street riots of July and September, which have done so much to lower the repty ation of the town, it is felt as doubly to be regretted. The , eis nothing that the merchants and mantlActurers of the town are so sensitive on as their comwercial probity, and anything that even lightly trenches upon their high character for rec titude in their dealings gives them especial pain ; but it should be remembered tha Moor, the prin cipal delinquent in these tea frauds, was only for three or four years e-inneeted with Belfast. Ho travelled some years ago for some of the most emi nent houses in the tea trade in Liverpool, London, and Glisgow, a4d, attracted by the prosperity of Belfast, he settled down here, became a junior partner in the house of M'Donneli and Co., and, on the retiring of the senior member of the fi. m, mouths ago, he was left in sole possession of the business. No irie , tilarity was suspected to have taken place in . the anded store in connexion with his premises till the Ist October, when a search was instituted, and it was then discovered that no fewer thin 786 cheats were what are technically called dummies that is, the chests containing the teas had been toskel away and others had been substituted, the contents of which were brickbats, turf, straws and sawdust, while the exterior cover ings were branded with the Custom-house masks, and made in every ref pect similar to the real chests. The duty on the missing chests is 4,4001. Moore disappeared from town on the evening of the search, and, notwithstanaing the exertions of the police, he has riot since been heard of. Two other persons wore arrested, ono a yonng man named. ' Henley, who filled a situation as clerk in a respect able insunfacturing firm in town, and the other a man named Harbison, who was employed till within three months ago by Moore. The charge against both these is for aiding and assisting in illegally removing goods from a 'bonded warehouse to evade the Customs' duties, contrary to the pro visions of the Customs Consolidation. Act of 18532 There have been several private investigations, and to-day the first public examination was held in the Town-hall. A very large number of the merchants and business people of the town attended in the Coupe 1-chamber to hear the proceezlings." There were but two witnesses examined—Mr. W. W. Godfrey, landing surveyor of the port, and John Robb, a porter in the employment of Moore —but their evidence elicited no new facts. The prisoners were then committed for trial at the spring assizes, and a rule of bail was fixed of each prisoner in 5001., and two sureties of 250/. each. STATE OF TRADE.—MANORESTER, Oct. 16.—The de pression in this market which was so perceptible at the commencement of the week continues to prevail, and btviness may at present be said to be altogether at a standstill.
