THE SEAT OF WAR. The following description of Bucharest, the centre of military operations in Wallachia, cannot fail to be interesting to our readers at the present crisis : " Bucharest is situated on a vast marshy plain, on the river Domboritza, about 400 'miles N.N.W. of Constantinople. It is the capital of Wallachia, and the residence of the Waivode, or Hospodar, and the see of. a Greek archbishop ; •is partly fortified, and shows, at a distance many gaily painted cupolas and pointed - spires, with a vast extent of buildings interspersed amidst luxuriant gardens; but when closely approached is found to consist of merely a collection of villages, without plan or regularity. In 1836 there were estimated to be 10,674 houses, which are, in general, very small, and in numerous instances not larger than huts, the best of them being built of stone and covered with wooden tiles. Almost every house possesses a wide garden, enclosed with entire trunks of oak set closely together, and the streets Eiro paved with planks of wood about 30 feet long, giving to the streets the app earance o f continued bridges throughout the whole extent of the town. It is said to contain 26 monasteries and 90 Greek churches, the principal of which is the patriarchal cathedral adjoining the palace of the archbishop. This edifice stands on an eminence, and commands a pleasant view of the whole capital. The hall of the Wallachian chamber of representatives is in a building connected with the magnificent church of St. George. The palace of the Hospo dar presents but a mean appearance, being of con siderable antiquity ; but the hotels of the Austrian and Russian ambassadors, and several of the mansions, of the boyards, or nobles, are modern and very handsome. In the centre of the town, are the bazaars or shops, protected from/the sun by roofs of timber frame-work. During the months or January and Fobruawy frnQf eryntinnes without cessation, and the thermometer often falls eight degrees below zero. In March, April, and May, the temperature is moderate ; but in June, July, and August, the maximum heat is 85 degrees. Its principal exports consist of wine, provisions, skins, and wool to Constantinople ; salt and salted provisions to Russia, and of cattle and hogs to Germany. The population is var i ous l y estimated; in 1837 it was supposed to be from 70,000 to 83,000, of whom 27,000 are boyards ; 236 secular priests ; 137 monks ; 2,583 Jews; 1795 foreigners, and the remainder are chiefly Christians, though in their manners and customs, they resemble 'much their Turkish. masters. Two newspapers are published ; there are three printing offices, a public and 22 private schools. Bucharest has been suc cessively subject to the Russians, Austrians, and the Turks ; but was delivered up to the nominal government of the latter power at the peace of Sistova, in 1791, and to the Turkish treasury it pays an annual tribute of about £26,000. LONDON AND NORTH-WESTERN AND MIDLAND RAILWAY. —lt appears that these companies intend to apply to par liament in the ensuing session for power to amalgamate the two undertakings upon such terms and conditions as may be agreed upon; also for power to fix the amount of the capital stock, and to regulate the different classes of shares, and to make working arrangements respecting the traffic. VERY SMALL BEER.—On a recent visit to Winchester, I tried the St. Crosse tap, which is open to any wayfarer, as all the world knows. Ido not know whether the liquid given as " beer" to the traveller has passed through the ordeal of the _Lancet analysation, but this I do know, that I would go all the way to Winchester to see Lord Guildford drink a pint of it. My only fear would be that I might run the risk of being tried as " accessory before the fact," in case it killed him. It reminded me of the celebrated small beer case, when the landlady gave her evidence, "that no man had ever got drunk off it, but two had burst."—The Times Correspondent. TYNEMOUTII BRIBERY COMMISSION.—The commissioners appointed by the crown to inquire into the corrupt prac tices in the parliamentary elections at Tynemouth, opened their court in the Town•hall, Saville, on Wednesday. The names of the gentlemen are Henry Davison, Esq., (chief commissioner,) John Harrell, Esq., and James Vaughan, Esq . . The chief commissioner opened the proceedings by setting forth the nature of the inquiry they were about to institute, which would depend on the nature of the evidence they received, whether it should be extended to preceding elections. A great number of summonses have been issued, and Mr. Granville Somerset, the secretary, has been down n Nr6 KeltingLpi the evidence. an advertisement from EieriCßil t iFos &Wan contain for tenders for mail contracts to California, Oregon, Utah, and New Mexico. The contracts are nearly 100 in number, and some of the mail routes are 1,000 miles long. The distance of the whole of the mail routes is nearly 10,000 miles. Mail bags are to be taken up and dropped at about 300 places. The postal communication between great numbers of the towns is to be daily. The longest routes are to have a mail service once a month. Every kind of mail conveyance will be adopted suitable to the districts in which they will travel—viz, steamboats, four-horse coaches, carts, wagons, and saddl,s-hones. The contracts are to commence in 18J4, and to last until 1858. DIPERFECTIONS OF A LOCAL MAGISTRACY. Many in stances of local interest are constantly arising, in which pre-arrangement of the judicial decision may be readily conceived. One instance would be in the strikes and combinations among manufacturers and workmen en gaged in undertakings which involve large partnerships and connections, and where there are other manufactories and works of the same description affected by . such strikes, and where the result to one magistrate being an employer, would affect others in the sam e predicament. low could there, in such a case as that, be the firm and implicit reliance on the part of the public that ought to rest on the magistrate appointed by the state to do impartial and undeviating justice between man and man ? Obviously, there could be none. Another instance might arise out of the system of licensing where partiality has been in some cases so clearly shown as to call forth strollg and indignant remonstrances. A third might be connected with the supervision of prisons, and other local institutions ; and upon that latter point there has already been so much before the public, that further allusion to the subject seems here wholly unnecessary.—" Sigma," in the Chronicle. OUR NEIGHBOURHOOD.—South-east and south-west of the metropolis lies a vast exp:inse of low land, reeking with stagnant water,—like the fens of Cambridgeshire and Lin colnshire in the 17th century, or the banks of the Lower Danube at the present hour. Its fetid mists rise up under the nostrils of nearly 3,000,000 of persons not generally supposed to be careless of their personal comforts, and help to poison the atmosphere breathed by the rulers of the world. 3,000,000 of men, with boundless wealth, and a marvellous scientific apparatus at hand, rise up in the morn ing to breathe the miasma, inhale it all day long, and lie down with it in their bedrooms at night, content and help less. Truly we are a strange people as regards our social logic. Men who would avoid a Venetian lagune in August, and would hurry from Rome at the fall, lest some lurking poison in the Italian air should creep into their lungs, will sit down easily on the banks of the Thames, and smile ap provingly at lobe Isle of Dogs.—Athencetem. THE LORD RECTORSHIP OF GLASGOW UNIVERSITY. The election of lord rector, took place on Tuesday, the candidates being the Earl of Eglinton and Mr. Alfred Ten nyson, the poet laureate. The result of the voting was as follows : Lord Eglinton. Tennyson. Glottiana B9 ... Loudoniana Transforthiana . . 27 .. . ,Rothesiana 222 179 it will be seen that the votes are equal in the Loudoniana nations, but as the procurator gave his casting vote in favour of Lord Eglinton, his lordship was placed on an equality as In the number of " nations" with Mr. Tenny son. The vice -rector, Dr. Itainny, then gave his casting vote for his loraghip, giving him a majority of ono nation. Lord Eglinton waz accordingly re-elected. WHAT MIGHT BE DONE TO AVERT THE PESTILENCE. —I have a profound conviction that nothing of a remedial nature can be attempted (when whitewash and shovel have done their present work) without a dispersion of the con gested life with which we have to deal, and with this a con sequent lowering of an unnatural value attained by certain house property. I look upon this dispersion as the only chance of safety for more than 50,000 fellow-creatures, the only chance of avoiding a huge wreck of life. Look to Newcastle. This dispersion must be effected, with the law, if possible, but effected a n d a t once . I thi n k it may be done thus :—Let houses of refuge on a large scale be immediately formed at convenient localities, on existing lines of railway, within ten or fifteen miles of London. Let passage within this distance, by means of a general rate, be made easy. Let all condemnable dwellings be forthwith compulsorily closed. Let residence in all localities upon a certain low level be discouraged, and the formation of business premises in their place be by all means enforced. Let the extension of the metropolitan railways to convenient central termini be no longer delayed. Let new suburban lines, if possible, be commenced. Let small markets be erected at frequent intervals, in which costermongers should be compelled to store and sell :their gods. Let poor -rates be equally spread over the entire metropolitan area; and, finally, let the Queen be petitioned to cause a royal commission to issue for the attainment of that grand object, a life-possible home for the Poor. lam supposing we are prepared to sanction a large outlay for these purposes ; it might possibly be cheaper to let us die; but the money-cost of even 50,000 lives (and the cost of 50,000 deaths), supposing us worth no more than the fifth of an American nigger, would be something more than a million sterling. Look at Newcastle. And again I say, what is done must be done at once, for the night is at hand. —The Builder. LIVERPOOL DISTRICT COURT OF BAIYERUPTCIS YESTERDAY. , (BEFORE MA. COMMISSIONER STEVENSON.) ; IN RE BENJAMIN DAvia, draper, Holywell. Mr. EVANs said that he had been instructed by Messrs. Sale, Worthington, and Shipman, of Manchester, attorneys for the assignees, to mention a circumstance in connection with this case, which had given rise to considerable annoy ' ante. The petition was filed on the 3rd, and adjudication took place on the sth of May last, and the 20th of May . last and the 16th of June, were appointed the days for Bur.; render. The bankrupt did not surrender, and he had there= fore by the 251st section of the act, committed a felony and rendered hiniself liable to imprisonment or transportation ; but in order to prove that he had committed the felony, it was necessary, first, to show that notice had been given in the Gazette, and, secondly, that a summons in writing had been served upon him personally, or left at the last knori place of his abode. The bankrupt did not surrender on the appointed day, and the creditors were put to considerable expense in endeavouring to trace out some property which had been removed from place to place. But it being eveo tually discovered that the bankrupt was living in Manches ter, an application was made to his Honor to direct that a prosecution be instituted against him at the expense of the Chief Re,gistrar's funds The application was granted on the 3rd of this month, and the magistrates immediately granted a warrant on the proceedings in the Court of Bankruptcy being produced to them. The bankrupt was arrested, ankl on being brought before the magistrates, applied for a re mand in order to obtain legal assistance. The remand was accordingly granted, and he was again brought up at the police-office on last Friday. Mr. Evans here detailed all that occurred on that occasion ; but it is unnecessary for us to do so, as a report of the case was given in our ensuing publication on Saturday. The proceed ings in the Court of Bankruptcy were regularly proved, but it appearing by the evidence of a Mr. Bell, auctioneer, Holf well, to whom the summons for surrender had been sent for service, that he had posted the summons inside tbe shop ! then locked the door and took the key with him, the magistrate held that this was not a proper service, and dis charged the bankrupt. The consequence was, Mr. Evans proceeded to say, that the bankrupt went away ; no prose.. (nion uuultl therefore Laic -race, awl 1,1.. c v.,,a14,...,, w 0,,,, laughed at for their trouble in the matter. The service pf the summons was entrusted to the proper officer of the court, the messenger, and it was his duty to see that it was served in such a way that the act of parliament would haye been complied with. The solicitor having charge of the case had nothing whatever to do with it. It was altogether in the messenger's hands, and if he could not have attended at the place himself, he should have taken care to have ell ployed a proper person to serve the summons, If the me - senger had gone to the plac e hi mse lf, an d h a d k nown t o circumstances, and that the bankrupt co u ld no t h ave acce s to the shop, he would most certainly h ave t a k en a different course from that adopted. Or if a solicitor had been em ployed, he would have taken care that the service was pro perly done. But here an improper person was employepl, and the consequence was that the bankrupt escaped, aid the labours of the creditors went for nothing. In conclu sion, Mr. Evans said, that he had been requested to mention this matter thus publicly to his Honor, in order to prevent a recurrence of such cases, and then read the letter which he had received from Messrs. Sale, Worthington, and Shipman, in which they represe n t e d the annoyance their clients, Messrs. Samuel and James Watts, who were credi tors against the estate for £lOO, experienced at the turn matters had taken ; and stating that as the case should be begun de MVO, they would cease all further proceedings. ' Mr. GASKILL, the messenger, was then sent for, and on being made aware of Mr. Evans's statement, he observed that what that gentleman had stated was true. When this file was originally opened by Mr. Evans, it was stated that there was a very large stock of drapery goods at the bank rupt's place in Holywell. Upon this he (Mr. Gaskill) sent over one of his messengers, and immediately followed him himself, but found nothing there but an empty shop. Hear ing, then, that the goods had been removed, he told the mes senger that he would be better employed in looking after the property than in keeping watch over bare walls ; and as soon as the man had done so, he communicated with Mr. Evans, and was directed to withdraw, and to give up the keys to the auctioneer. If the man had not been withdrawn lie would have remained in the house, and no question as to the proper service of the summons would have arisen ; but even as the matter stood, he (Mr. Gaskill) contended that he had complied with the Act of Parliament, by leaving the sum mons at the bankrupt's last known place of abode. Itis wife, moreover, lived within a few doors of the premises, and knew full well that Mr. Bell had the keys of the house, and that they could be had if at any moment the bankrupt re turned and wished to enter the house. The man could not help locking up the premises when he was told to withdraw. As to the service of the summons by deputy, (he Mr. Gaskill) could not do it personally, because he would not be allowed his personal expenses for going there ; he was there fore obliged to do it by an agent, and he contended that in this instance the auctioneer was a proper agent, inasmuch as he had been a solicitor's clerk in Manchester and Liverpool for sionai ageliti - liaugreliras i WatirceNnfiteud t1kaae...21191:. nearly six hundred miles, nor could he attend in all places himself, because he would not be allowed his personal ex penses for doing so. At the same time he should still contend that in this case the act of parliament had been complied with. The summons had been left at the bankrupt's last known place of abode—it could not bo loft at the public house, or at tho nost door, and he was still to learn that the ',shutter or the door was " the last known placa of abode" of the bankrupt. ___. The 003 L -MISSIONER : Have you never on any occasion posted the summons outside ? - Mr. GASKILE : Never. The COMMISSIONER : Then, I suppose, the doors were open. Mr. GASKILL : Not always; we have had similar cases to this, and it was never disputed that we had complied with the act of parliament. Tne act says nothing of posting on shutters or doors, but of leaving the summons at the bank rupt's " last known place of abode." Mr. EVANS : But here is the wife living within a few doors of the house, and she has not been informed—at least it does not appear so upon the evidence—of this service. Mr. GA.sxua, : I beg your pardon. The wife knew that Bell had the keys, and if the bankrupt had returned at any time he could have had admission. The COMMISSIONER : Is it clear that the service outside the house would be thoroughly right ? I would not, nor am I called upon, to give an opinion on that point now; but is it clear that the service outside the house is r i g ht ? If it is not, then the act is made a dead letter. If thb messenger had employed a solicitor, would he be allowed the usual charge of a professional man in such a case ? Mr. GAsKILL : Certainly not ; and if he should employ a solicitor he would have charged me just double what I am allowed. I would have had to pay him 13s. 4d., and lam allowed only 6s. Bd. The COMMISSIONER asked if in that case it would not be a hardship on the messenger to requiro him to employ a soli citor ? Mr. EVANS did not think that the messenger was so badly paid in the matter, and cited one or two of the fees. Mr. GASKILL said that that was not the question. Besides, the Messenger was paid not by salary but by fees. Mr. AYRES, Mr. Gaskill's clerk, observed that that gentle man had gone over to Holywell, in the first instance, not to serve the summons, but to look after property to a large amount which was said to have been removed. He had his man there to perform the other duty. The COMMISSIONER inquired if Bell had done anything before for the court ? Mr. GASKILL replied that he had, and that Holywell was so small a place, that the receipt of the summons there would have been known in a moment. The COMMISSIONER: But the complaint is that the case fell to the ground for want of proper service. Mr. GASKILL : The summons was left at the bankrupt's " last known place of abode," and there has been, I contend, a proper service. The COMMISSIONER observed that the magistrates deci ded that the summons should have been posted outside. Mr. GASKILL : The magistrates have decided that the shutters were the bankrupt's last place of abode, and that I deny. And Mr. EVANS, when before them, contended for what I do now. The COMMISSIONER said, that the question for his con sideration was whether or not the failure in the case had arisen from the messenger not having properly fulfilled ihis duty—either in not having been at the place himself, or in not baying employed a competent person to act for him. He thought, under the circumstances, that it could hardly be expected that the messenger, not being allowed his personal travelling expences, should have gone down to the place himself. He was required, certainly, to employ a person that was likely to do the duty properly that was ,en trusted to him ; but here it could not positively be alleged that such a person had not been employed. Various opinions were entertained as to what constituted a proper service in such a case ; but if it were necessary, as it was not, for him to express an opinion, he (the Commissioner) should say that he was inclined to think that the summons should have been posted outside. Mr. EVANS observed, that they were in this difficulty : if they posted the summons inside the house, and left the door open, it might be said that any person could have gone in and torn it down ; and if they posted it inside, and locked the door, then the present objection would again arise. The COMMISSIONER said that to avoid all mistakes it would be well to paste it inside and outside, and thereby comply with the spirit of the act. In this matter it was to be very much regretted that such a point had arisen, as it was very desirable, from the nature of the case, that it should have come before the court and be made an example of. He could quite understand why the creditors should have been so much annoyed, but he thought it would be a very harsh view to take of the matter to say that the case had failed through neglect on the part of the messenger. Mr. Gaskill himself said that he considered the posting, under the circumstance, a proper service, and that he him self would have done precisely as Bell did, and therefore he (the Commissioner) did not think that any charge could be laid against him. In conclusion, his Honor said that in future, if application were made to him, he would at once THE NORTHERN DAILY TIMES direct that the necessary expense should be paid out of the estate to insure the proper service. Mr. AYRES begged perthission to ask Mr. Evans if he did not consider Bell a prelim: person to serve the summons: Mr. EVANS : I should say that Bell ought to have known how to act in the matter. He is one of those persons who profess to know everything. (Laughter.) The court then adjourned. It is stated that a proposal has recently been discussed at the Bank of France for making all their payments, as far as possible, in gold, and refusing to issue five franc pieces, so as to check the continued exportation of silver: MANCHESTER ATIEE/EUM. —The Manchester Atlienceum had a narrow escape from destruction by fire on Wednesday afternoon.

REFORMATION or YOUNG CRIMINALS.—A conference on the subject of " the legislative amendments imperatively called for in the national treatment of morally destitute and criminal children," has been convened at Birmingham, by Lords Calthorpe, Lyttleton, Denbigh, Leigh, and Harrowby ; Mr. Gladstone, Sir John Pakington, Mr. Adderley, Mr. M. D. Hill, Mr. Muntz, Mr. M. Mines, Sir R. Peel, the Lord Mayor, the Mayor of Birmingham, and a long list of other influential names. The conference is to take place at Dee's hotel, on the Ist of December. DEATH OF REAR ADMIRAL JOHN PASCO.—Rear Admiral Pasco died at his residence, Dumford-street, Stonehouse, Plymouth, on Tuesday morning, after an attack of English him off in three days. Admiral Pasco was in his eightieth year. He was senior lieutenant of the Beaulieu, and served on shore at the taking of St. Lucia in 1796. He was also the senior and flag lieutenant of the Victory at Trafalgar, where he was wounded; and commander of the Tartarus during the operations on the coast of America in 1815. A TOWN or PATER.—The paper village, when made was temporarily set up in the grounds of the fact ►ry. It con sisted of 10 houses. It is not the simple papier-mache, as ordinarily used, but contains an admixture of rags not re duced to pulp, which enables it to solidify as hard as a board. The walls ate double, to insure ventilation, and partitions have a strength and durability which will put to shame the lath and plaster mockeries of too many of the Loudon houses that Jack built. It was found on trial that one of the smaller houses could be pulled down and built up again in four hours. —Dickens's Household Words. FOREIGN CORN.—Application having been made to the customs' authorities for the privilege attaching to importers of foreign corn of making a deposit with the receiver of fines at the custom-house, and of having corn delivered to them to the extent of 20 quarters beyond the quantity on which the duties have been previously paid, and without waiting for a post or second entry to be passed, to be ex tended to licensed customs' agents, on the same terms and under similar regulations and conditions, they have declined to accede to the request generally, as being inexpedient and unnecessary ; but have consented for the privilege to be ex tended to them in cases where they hold the bill of lading for the grain on behalf of the importers. GRIEF FOR THE Loss OF A WIFE.—Mr. William Swal- low, aged 74, a master shoemaker, of Boston-street, Dorset square, committed suicide. It appeared that lately the w ife of the deceased, whose age was 72, and to whom he had been married 46 years, was buried, having died after a short illness. Since that event the deceased had been in consolable for his loss, and had frequently exclaimed that he never should survive it, for, having lived with her so long, he could not live without her. On Friday morning last, not making his appearance as usual, a lodger in the house entered his bed-room, when he discovered him stiff and cold, hanging to a nail in the wall. SECRET DESPATCHES.—The Olympic Academy of Vi cenza, having carefully examined the discovery made by their fellow-citizen Tremeschini of electric telegraph by secret transmission, has publicly declared it to be a most successful invention. The results of the inquiry show :- Ist. That the apparatus of Tremeschini may he applied to Morse's telegraph ; 2dly. That when the despatch is sent secretly, it can only be received so, any fraud in that re spect being subject to immediate detection; 3dly. That secrecy may be suspended or applied at pleasure. The re port of the commission is highly eulogistic of the inven tion. TRADE WITH RUSSIA.

The hosiery, lace, &c., to Turkey were of the value of £17,625, and to Russia, £18,589, while the cot ton twist and yarn to Turkey were valued at £314,952 and to Russia, £176,271. _ _ The cholera in Scotland wears a virulent aspect. The Scotsman says, " since our last, four cases of cholera have occurred in this city. One was that of a woman, who after travelling from Glasgow, had obtained lodgings in the night asylum, where she was seized with the disease. In another case the patient had come from Fife, and having got himself wet, had dried his clothes at a furnace the night previous to his attack. This case proved fatal. In the third case, the patient was removed from Burnett's-cl ose , Hi g h- s treet, to the cholera hospital, where she died yesterday morning. The fourth case was also removed to the hospital on Monday or early yesterday. One case is also reported from Leith, and one from] Kirkaldy. The disease is now raging with violence in Forfar, near the railway station. There have already been eight or nine deaths, and several more people are lying . ill. Not one of the parties who have been seized has survived." THE WESLEYAN CONTROVERSY.--The only powers vested in the conference by that deed are-Ist. To meet once a year, and sit not less than five days, and not longer than three weeks, and after the first year to fix the time and place of meeting. 2. The appointment of the preachers to the various circuits. 3. The admission into and expulsion from the conference of its own members and other associated travelling preachers. 4. The delegation of its own powers to one or more of its own members for particular cases. The persons appointed are described as " gentlemen, being preachers and expounders of God's Holy Word." The term minister or pastor is not used. The conference now claims, as a divine right, and acts upon it, the power to admit into and exclude members from the Methodist Church, not only without the sanction of the laity, but in direct opposition to their recorded verdicts. This claim is disputed, herein is the kernel of the whole affair. The opponents of the con ference appeal to the New Testament—the conference re fuses to meet them; hence the agitation.— Times. WHAT THE PRICE OF THE LOAF SHOULD M.—Supposing the quarter of wheat to sell for 50s, and to weigh 62 to 63 lbs. per bushel, or say 500 lbs. per quarter, and that the miller and baker's profits and expenses be allowed to be 40 per cent. on this cost of the wheat, and that the quarter of wheat turns out no more than its weight in bread—it has been calculated to turn out trom 10 to 12 per cent. more— and the price of the loaf will be-1 quarter (500 lbs.), at 50s, with 40 per cent. expenses mid profits, equal to 70s, and the 41b. loaf will cost nearly 61d. 1 quarter (500 lbs.), at 70s, and 40 per cent. profit on 50s, or 20s, equal to 90s, and the 4 lb. loaf of best bread can be sold for something over Bd, instead of 12211, as I see stated by the papers-70s being, I believe, about the average price of wheat at present. The milling and baking expenses are no more upon a quarter of wheat that costs 100 s than upon a quarter that costs 40s.—Correspondent of the Morning Post. THE PEOPLE OF TURKEY.—From a late book of travels we compile the following summary of the population of European Turkey : —Wallachia and. Moldavia are inha bited by Wallachs, or Daco-Romans, calling themselves, in their own language, Romouni, and all of the Eastern, or Greek Church. A few villages in Epirus a re i n h a bit e d by Wallachs, some of whom are also found scattered through out most parts of Turkey, chiefly as shepherds and carriers. Bosnia, Turkish Croatia, Herzegovina, Montenegro, are inhabited by Christian Slavonians of the Greek and Latin Churches, and Mahommedan Slavonians. Servia is en tirely inhabited by Christian Slavonians of the Greek Church, with the exception of Belgrade and a few other gar risons of Ottoman troops. Bulgaria has Christian Sla vonians and Mahommedan Ottomans. (The Christian Slavonians in Thrace and Macedonia also speak -the Bul garian dialect of Slavonic, and are usually called Bulga rians.) Thrace and Constantinople have Christian Slavo nians, Greeks, Ottomans, Armenians, Jews. Macedonia has Christian Slavonians Greeks, Mahommedan Otto mans, ditto Slavonians, Jews. Albania is inhabited by Christian and Mahommedan Albanians. Epirus (1. e., Al bania south of the Anocevannian Promontory) is inhabited chiefly by Greeks, partly also by Mahommedan Albanians, and by Mahommedan Greeks (i. e., the descendants of rene gades of Greek race), Thessaly has Greeks, Ottomans, and Jews. Crete is inhabited entirely by a race of Greek de scent, but of which aportion has apostatised to Mahommed anism. The total population in round numbers is about 8,500,000. According to this calculation there are in the European provinces of the Ottoman Empire-1. Christians, in all, 6,650,000. 2. Mahommedans, in all, 1,750,000, and Jews, in all, 100,000. We must add to the total a few thousand Zingaris, or Gipsies. The Frank residents in the European Turkey do not exceed 100,000. By this term are meant the subjects of the various European Powers ; lonians, who are considered as British subjects ; and such Greeks as are subjects of the kingdom of Greece. There is great uncertainty about the question, but some good autho rities rate the Turks in Europe as high as twelve millions, .POLWE - V COURT. -__ESTERDAY. LIVERPOOL. Three miserable Iookino• boys were charged by a person named William Roberts, who stated that he had a brick-kiln near the Sandon dock, with causing him annoyance and in jury by pulling down the bricks to Make temporary huts for the purpose of sleeping in at night. The complainant stated that about a score of persons slept there every night, and he was apprehensive that some accident might occur, and that some of them would be smothered among the bricks. Mr. Mansfield : I see no way of keeping them away ex cept having a watchman always there. Unfortunately in a large town like this, there are always a great many persons who have not the means df paying for a night's lodging. I can only send them to the workhouse.

Detective officer Sullivan said that he visited the prisoner's house in Brooks street, who denied having any money. On searching, he found concealed under his bed-post, 4 sovereigns, a .half sovereign, a "Californian" sovereign, and one shilling in silver. Prosecutor deposed that on Thursday evening he was in Mr. Ford's public-house in Old Hall-street ; prisoner was there, a game of bagatelle was proposed, in which he joined. He had upon him 4 sovereigns and a five pound note, money with which he was going to pay the rent and taxes of his boarding-house, 5 Fulton-street. Upon some question of wanting finances arising, prosecutor was foolish enough to show the money. He shortly afterwards left the house and prisoner followed and joined him in the street, when he induced him to go into another public-house, kept by Mrs. Jackson, where they had a glass each for which prisoner paid, on leaving this house prisoner bid him good bye, and in doing so, Green fancied that he came much closer to him than was at all necessary on so short an acquaintance, and the moment prisoner was gone he missed the money. Mrs. Jackson, of Great Howard-street, publican, proved that Green and prisoner were together in her house at the time stated. Green was a little under the influence of drink, but not so much so as that he could not take care of himself. She saw him take out a sovereign from a paper which appeared to be a bank note, and lay it on the counter when paying for the drink. She told him to put it up, which he did, into the paper again, and returned all to his pocket. He then went out, prisoner following him. Mr. Campbell defended prisoner, and stated that he was a respectable man who had been many years in business. The magistrates said that the case was one which they would prefer leaving to a jury, and it should go to the sessions.

Fortunately for the lad, his Genet Genius prevailed, and he informed his em ployers of the entire circumstance. Detective officers Scott and Sullivan were put on the scent, and they athie€4 that the boy should appear to comply, and appoint a time for giving the old rogue some plunder. Accordingly, on Thurs day, a parcel of tea (51bs., the value of 17s. 6d.) was made up and placed in readiness. On his way to the Albert dock, Fitzpatrick encountered prisoner, and the appointment was made. On the same morning Purcell came up the ware house stairs, and was handed the parcel of tea, for which he munificently paid his intended victim two shillings, nnd on coming out was arrested by the officers, The magistrates said this was a very bad case, and a vile attempt to seduce and corrupt thisyoung lad. They should sentence prisoner to two months' imprisonment, SHOP-LIFTIN O.—Mary Parker and Emma Thompson, two well-looking and neatly-dressed young women, were charged with stealing a piece of 6 silk pocket handkerchiefs, value Is. 6d. each, from the shop of Mr. Rogers, St. James's street.

ALARMING ACCIDENT ON THE GREAT NORTHERN RAlL we:sr.—An. accident of a very • alarming and somewhat serious character occi..eed on Wednesday morning, on th Great Northern P.,iovay, about five miles south of Don caster, the night fast good-strain, from York and Leeds, consisting of seven trucks, an engine and tender, and break van, left Doncaster station between twelve and one o'clock, being only a few minutes behind time, and had proceeded as far as Rossington station, when one of the axletrees of the fifth truck, which was laden with girders and coupling irons, suddenly snapped in two, and threw the truck across the down line of rails. At the same instant, and before any alarm could possibly be raised, the night express, which leaves London at 9. 15 p.m., came up (punctually to its time) and dashed into the dislocated train at full speed, or at the rate of about forty miles an hour. The engine of the express was capsized in a moment, the break-van next it was partially smashed, and three of the passenger-carriages were thrown off the line. The greatest alarm and excite ment prevailed amongst the passengers, but fortunately the injuries sustained were not so serious as those generally re sulting from such frightful accidents, or as might have been expected on this occasion. A guard in the passenger train, named Joseph Amobelina (not on duty, but proceeding to the north), received an extensive lacerated wound on the forehead, and he is now lying at lodgings at Doncaster. The engine-driver of the express had his top lip cut and his knee bruisqa ; three of the passengers were rather severely bruised also, and were unable to proceed on their journey until the middle of the day. The stoker of the express had an ex tremely narrow escape. He is a man of small stature, and at the moment the collision took place his h cad passed un der a bar projecting from the prostrated goods waggon; had he been three inches taller his head would have been knocked off.

A MIGHTY ORGAN.—Some interesting experiments have recently been made at the Crystal Palace, Sydenham, with respect to the power required by an organ to fill the building, anil a report has been presented to the directors on the sub ject. As the central transept alone covers a larger area than is occupied by the cathedral at York, some idea of the vast size and power of an instrument which should be heard in all parts of the building may be formed. The committee report that the area required for the instrument would not be less than 5,400 feet, the depth of the organ 50 feet, and its altitude from the ground 140 feet. The cost would not be less than a period 25,000 and its construction would extend over three years.—Globe. LIVERPOOL 111ARKETS.—Yr-sTr it n i .
