-A

meeting was held in the Town-ball, Buckingham, on
Friday night, to hear an address from Mr. Hubbard, the
conservative member for the borough. Mr. Hubbard
commenced by reviewing the business of parliament
during the pest session, commenting as he proceeded on
the home end foreign policy of =deters, and strongly
approving of the course pursued by the government
respecting the insult offered to the British flag by Captain
Wilkes. The hon. member dwelt at some length on his
=dime for equalisiog the income tax, and, expressing
strongly against the manner in which that tax
was levied, said that he would again draw the sheathe
of the House of Commons to the subiect in the forth-
coming session. Adverting to the civil war in Amities,
Mr. Hubbard expressed his couviotioo that from the very
cessation of hard money—gold and silver—the war would
soon be brought to • dose by the simple proems of ex-
henstion, as be felt confided that the soldiers would Dot
receive • depressed currency, ear meld the deeded of
military stores pert with them is ezdange fat ineuevertible
documenu. His conviction wee that the ideas* of
civilisation and humanity were bound upp in the formation
of two independent stud on the northern coot/Dent oft
America. At the conclusion of the hon. member's address
• vote of confidence wan carried.

Lows COINS IN OZIMANY.--Quite lately a great
sedation baa been produced in some German tones by the
app ears's* of a novel coin, struck from the purest silver, and
betraying the master's hand in every line of its ad-
mirable design and workmanship. On the one aide are
represented the ems of the city of Frankfort, and 1
on the other, which chiefly concern, us, the likeness
of a beautiful woman. I shall not enter into • detailed
=of the charms of the fair one, as they are
by the daily Fees. Suffice it to say that
the descr!ptions show her to be the most divine among
women, ' ravishing and havoc with the senses.
The bead is gracefully -
set, and the bust only needs the
continuation that is denied by the limits of the frame to
compare with that of the incomparable Venus of Hilo.
"Soft locks." falling upon "thermion shoulders," cm.

There was but one resource to suggest itself to the

three miles, and the smoke of burning townships and cot-

has not altogether abated ; all who could had tied away,
and by the last accounts the place was almost deserted.

The business that required the presence of Mr. Harry

the same freedom from reolestatioa in carrying on trade

ENGLISH WORXWIN ay EMIL—We have just had
• melancholy woof of the fatal restate which may be ex-
pected from the recent laxity of the Roman government in
punishing the aawasin who attempted the life of Mr. Bu-
chanan, at Velletri, two or three months ago. It may be
recollected that Mr. Buchanan was employed in superin-
tending the railway bridge and works near that town, and
that on of his worhmen, dismissed for mi.condnct, stabbed
him with him a poignard. The police authorities considered
the •11111111411 to have base in • mate of justifiable irritation
when he committed the deed, and they therefore dismissed
him with • mere reprimand. The lazy and lawless set of
peasants and disbanded brigands at work on the line have
consequently ermaidered themselves tally authorised to mur-
der Englieltessineers and foremen whenever a subject of dis-
pute may anas,which is not= impossible contingency between
men of different habits, languages, and modes of labouring-
Last night a telegram was sent from Velletri by Mr. York
to Dr. Gerard Small, requesting him to set out without
delay for Velletri, where the English foreman on the
viaduct had just been mortally wounded. But it is not so
easily dose as said to drive forth from the Eternal
City at eight ; and before the necessary per-
Wallow wuM be obtained from the French mili-
tary authorities and the Roman pollee, • mooed
te4e ram from Mr. York informed Dr. Small that his at-
tesdaoos be superfluous. The amounts received this
morning from Velletri state that the foreman, a fine young
fellow, aamed Smith, active red intelligent, paid his work-
men ea usual yesterday evening in • tavern in the town.
On going out, at a few paces distance, an assassin, who had
been waiting for bias with • pistol, shot him in the breast.
The murderer was doubtless some dissatisfied scamp of •
workman under Smith's orders, upwards of 200 men. inclu-
ding 28 English riveters, having been lately employed upon
the viaduct.—Letter from Rome, Jan. 18.

A SAftc.terric Tim.—On the !light of thel4th of
this month Mr. William Wood, of Stanningley, near Brad-
ford, left Leeds in a third-okes carriage ea the Leeds,
Bradford, and Halifax Junction Railway. He had with
hints .niall box, oontaining 24 watches, valued altogether
at about 601. The box wee tied up in a red handkerchief.
Mr. Wood got out of the train at the Staoningley station,
but his box of watches bad either vanished before he
arrived those or was left in the carriage. Some days after-
wards a printed handbill was circulated in which a reward of
U. was offered for the restoration of the miming property,
which was slated to have been left in a third-class carriage
of the train by which the owner travelled. A woman hav-
ing given inform:Aims that she sew a man of indifferent
character, living at Padsey, earning the lost box away
from the statioona,, his house was visited and searched by the
police, but wilhoet finding nay trees of the watches,
mid nothing was heard of the property until Friday
morningi last, when the box and red handkerchief,
asaa
in brown paper, were found in one of the
waiting-rooms at the Greet Northern Railway Station,
Bradford. The parcel had upon it the direction, " Hr.
Wood, watch dealer, StanningleY, going to Leeds." On
the box being opened only thing found inside wu a slip
of white paper, with writing upon it, of which the following
is a verbatim d fiteratini copy :—" i have sent box beck and
