TURKEY AND THE CONGRESS.

The Lenard Herald of Wtdnecilay, Nov. 25, con-
tains the following :
On Friday last a special audience was given by the Sultan
at the Palace of Dolma-Baktchi•, to the Marquis de Mous!
tiers, the French ambassador; the Grand Vizier, and the
Minister of Foreign Affairs, with a number of high Palace
functionaries, taking part in the proceeding.. The object of
the audience, fixed by previous arrangement, was to receive
from the handset the ambassador an autograph letter of
the Emperor of the French, inviting the Sultan to attend
the Congress of European Sovereigns proposed to be held Is
Paris. His Majesty gave the ambassador ea very cor-
dial reception, and stated that he would willingly
accept the Emperor's invitation, if the other Sovereigns
of Europe also accepted it, and the Congress actually
assembled ; and added that personally be would
be glad of such an opportunity of making the acquaintance
of the Emperor of the French and of other European poten-
tates. AL de lifoustiers at once telegraphed to the
Tuileries the result of his mission ; and we have ream to
believe that to-morrow's mail will couvey to Mehemet
Djemil Puha, the ambassador of the Porte at Paris, the
Sultan's autograph letter accepting the Emperor's invita-
tion to the Congress in the sense indicated by his Majesty's
verbal expressions to the representative of France. His
Majesty further expressly stipulates, as ► condition of his
acceptance, that the subjects which it is inteoded to moot
at the Congress shell be in the first instance submitted to
his koowledge ; and he concludes his letter with the re-
mark that his presence at the Congress will be a striking
evidence and illudration of the engagements entered into
by the great Powers for the maintenance of the integrity
of the Ottoman Empire.

(Before the Common Serjeant.)

Catherine O'Brien, 20, was indicted for feloniously
wounding Edward Thompson Downes, with intent to do him
some grievous bodily barn.
Mr. Lilley prosecuted ; the prisoner was undefended.
This assault arose out of one of those cases which so fre-
quently come before the court. It appears that the prose-
cutor was a seaman, and was in the locality of SL George's-
is-the-Fast on the night of the 19th November, when he
fell in with the prisoner. Being a stranger to the place, be
askedher in his innocent simplicity whether she could show
him to a lodging. Of course she knew of plenty, and in a
few minutes he found himself wifely ensconced to a house in
• place called Palmer's Folly. After being there a short
time the prosecutor seemed to have discovered that the
abode to which he had been led was not so respectable as he
could have wished, sod immediately upon making this dia-
-1 revery be appears to have attempted to leave the place. He
asked the prisoner for his jacket, but indeed of giving it to
him she handed it over to the landlady. A struggle then
took place, and the seaman wee about to run out of the
place when he received a violent blow on the back of the
neck with some sharp instrument, from the effects of which
he lost a great deal of blood. and fainted upon arriving at
the station. The medical gentleman who attended him pre
it as his opinion that if the instrument, whatever it was, bad
gene a hair's breadth Dearer the jugular vein the man would
meet probably have lost his life.
In defence the prisoner stated that the man had Do
money when be went home with her, and be had therefore
agreed to give her his jacket, hut when he went away he
wanted to take has jacket with him, and then, in a struggle
which took place, she certainly did strike him, but it was
with the milk-jug.
The policeman who took her into custody, stated that he
bac! found • large quantity of blood in the room. He had
likewise picked up the pieces of the milk jug, which were
smeared with blood.

The medical gentleman stated th►t the wound might
have been inflicted with a jug, although it appeared to him
that a knife bad been used.

The jury found Lie prisoner Guilty of unlawfully wound-
ing, and the Common Serjeant sentenced her to 18 months'
imprisonment with hard labour.
In our report of Mordant'', cue yesterday, we inadver-
tently stated that Mr. Chambers prosecuted. It should
have bean " Mr. Montagu" Williams.
The business of the court having closed, the court wu
adjourned to Monday, the 14th inst.

PRINCE NAPOLEON AND THE POLES.

In the Opinion Nationale M. Gueroult, who
represents the opinions of Prince Napoloon,
strongly urges war with Russia without loss of
time. He argues that delay is abandonment of
the cause, and that the war should be undertaken
while the Polish bands are yet in arms and ready
to do the greater part of the rough work. He
seta forth grounds for reckoning upon the neutrality
of England and Austria, the assistance of Sweden
against Russia, and the assistance of Denmark, if
a war with Prussia should be necessary. Under
these circumstances he thinks France might safely
commence a campaign alone for the reconstitution
of Poland, and begin by sending 50,000 men and
100,000 muskets from Cherbourg to Stockholm.
A little scene took place during the course of the
late debate, which the people of Paris seem to have
heartily enjoyed. To appreciate it one must bear in
mind that until he was offered office M. Billault was
a rabid republican, who used to denounce Louis
Philippe's government for " oppressing the press,"
&c. In the course of his speech he said (we quote
the Moniteur) :
It has been stated that to vote the order of the day
would be contrary to the spirit which placed Napoleon 111.
on the throne. What wsa that spirit? Why, France was
weary of revolutionary convulsions and revolutionary impo-
heaps. She felt the dangers growing up around her, threat.
ening her greatness, bar glory, her priaperity, her religion.
(Cries of "That's so," "Very good, very good r)
Prince Napoleon—That is probably the reason why you
Billault) voted assent Napoleon. (Uproar.) Yea, you
know you voted for General Cavaignac. (Renewed uproar.)

_ . .
Billault, an eye-witness states, was fairly
taken aback at this, and remained for a minute or
so as if he had been struck down. He soon re-
covered, however, and said it was true he bad voted
against the Prince President, but that since he had
seen him at work, "he had served him for ten
years with honour and fidelity "—not barren honour
by any means.

THE RUSSIAN TREATMENT OF PRI-
SONERS.

We read in the Chas of Cracow

All the chiefs of the insurrection who have fallen into the
hands of the Russians have been shot. Thus, at Radom M.
Jaeinski was shot without trial ; at Sic:oleo, MM. Olszewaki
and Moritz ; and at Lublin, M. Cueinier Bogdanowich, one
of the moat intrepid leaders of the national movement.
When the latter was brought to the place at which
be was to be executed, the military governor of Lublin
said to him, " You are very young. Sue for pardon."
" Yes, general," he replied, " I am young, but the cause
I defended is very old." "You have your mother?' "My
mother would blush if I begged the Russians to pardon
ma But I pray you do not trifle with me at such ► mo-
ment. Yon were to shoot me at 6 o'clock, and it is already
ten minutes past 6." Some momenta afterwards the ►able
young man was no more.
London, England, 1863-03-23

THE ESCAPE OF LANGIEWICZ.

The Debate of to-day, explaining the circum-
stances of Langiewicz's escape, says that that ge-
neral felt keenly even before the fatal day at
Busk that his little army could not carry on
regular war and fight in battle array against
the Russian masses. He found it also every
day more and more difficult to get provisions for
his men while they composed but one corps in the
palatinates of Cracow and Sandomir, which were
exhausted from two months' ravages. This is why he
resolved to scatter his force over several points,
and to go himself with his officers into another
palatinate, where troops quite fresh were expected.
"If we are well informed," says the Debuts, " he
counted upon reaching this palatinate, the name of
which the reader will not be surprised if we decline
to mention, by crossing the Austrian territory in
secret. Unfortunately, this plan failed through the
zeal of the Austrian agent who committed the
gratuitous fault of recognising him. Langiewicz
having, however, been recognised, the only course
left open to the cabinet of Vienna, which is at
peace with Russia, was to detain him. We doubt
if the agent who made this important capture will
be warmly congratulated by M. de Rechberg ; but
he will probably obtain congratulations more easily
than promotion to the superior ranks of his pro-
fession. M. de Rechberg has never admired more
sincerely than now the appositeness of the famous
saying of M. de Talleyrand, 'Above all no zeaL' "
The Morning Post says :—" We understand that
the cabinet of Vienna have resolved to place Lan-
giewicz on parole, and to assign some Austrian
town as his place of residence."
London, England, 1863-03-23

THE POLICE COURTS.

MANSION-HOII&L

On Saturday, Sir Robert Carden said that he had received
several letters in the course of the morning from
different ladies who had received a letter from the
man who called himself Robertson, after having answered
an advertisement in the Times for a governess. The letter
iteelf was in almost every instance inclosed, and it wee
exactly similar to the one produced the other day b► Mr.
Beard. In one or two instances the letter was, however,
in French, and held forth promises of " high salary with
ver► little labour." In one can the young lady lud in-
closed the sum of tee shillings to Robertson, as part of
the first advance, but had never since heard any more from
him. Another letter stated that Robertson was the
notorious Flynn, who was convicted some time ago
for seducing young governesses, and the writer signed her-
self "One of his Victims." Sir Robert remarked that the
letters proved that the system of defrauding unsuspecting
female' had no doubt been carried on to a great extent by
thi Robertson, and he hoped the publicity which bad been
given would put others on their guard. Amongst the let-
ters was one from Paris, addressed to Mr. Pollsky, in
soswer to an inquiry he bad caused to be made in Paris,
stating that Robertson's character was bad, and that his
offices were a garrets and that he had lately decamped
without paying the very low rent, and also without wait-
ing for the completion of some circulars which be ordered
to be printed. The circulars were similar in words to the
letters which have been sent hitherto.
GUILDHALL.
- -

David Parker, a Isaipmaker, wassummoned for neglect-
ing to maintain his wile, whereby she had become charge-
able to the parish of St. Andrew. Holborn.
The defence met up was that the wife had been guilty of
adultery with a carpenter, and evidence was produced to
show that they bad been repeatedly seen in company to-
gether at variant public places of amusement and in private,
and more particularly in an empty house where the latter
was employed.
There wes no diatinct evidence, however, of improper
conduct, and the magistrate therefore ordered the defendant
to meintain his wife, but he acceded to the request of the
defendant's attorney to adjourn the OLIO for the production
of further evidence.

WESTAIINSTZIL

A very respectable-looking woman, with three young
children, applied to Mr. Arnold for assistance.
She stated that her husband, who had been formerly
coachman to Lord Spencer, had gone one to New South
Wales two years ago with an English gentleman, who bad
settled there, and had from time to time transmitted his
wages for her maintenance. He moistly paid to the Emi-
ration Society the required sum for Weill and family to
Jain him, and she was mat by the Commissioners on the
14th ult. to Plymouth, is order to.go eat with the Ida,
emigrant ship, which left that port on Sunday morning.
la consequence of her youngest child being afflicted with the
hooping-cough, the medical officer informed her that it was
not in a fit state to be admitted oe board the reesel, and
the matron at the depot told her that she must return to
London. She would have bsen permitted to remain
had there been any prospect of a ship leaving
for Sydney at an early period, and her mummy by
rail to Lwdon basis( be.. paid by the eommisaioriers, she
came to town late on Tuesday night. At the time she had
neared directions to join her husband, she had broken up
her little home, sod disposed of everything she bad, and
was now cast on the world perfectly penniless. Neither she
I nor the children had a mouthful a food on their way up
' from Plymouth save some serape of bread and huller which
were kindly given to her by a peer feilowiremeerar. TM
Emigration Commissioners were quite wining to send her
out so soon as her child should be recovered of It. present
malady, but until then she had so house to go to, so MOM
whatever of supporting herself, and having applied at the
Emigration.oeloe in Park-street that morning, and stated
the distressing position in which she was unhappily
they had recommended her to make her ems known ta ett
magistrate.
Mr. Arnold directed that she should be relieved out of the

himself as a warehouseman, stated that he sew tbs*:

and he went to the lady and asked her if she had Mori

TheLordMayor said there were two or three persons who

In the Canadian Assembly a vote of 10,0C3 dole.
for et survey of the line of the projected Inter-

Messrs. Forsyth, Bell, and Co. give the following
report of the Quebec timber trade :
The shipment of white pine is upwards of 50 per cent.
in excess of last season, and in consequence our market has
been well sustained, showing but little Wow' even ►t this
inactive portion of the year, except for inferior lots. Rid
pine has bees shipped in much the same proportion of
excess as white. Large averages are dear, but everything
under 45 feet it sold with difficulty. Oak continues scarce.
Staves remain pretty much as they have been all the
season. Deals are very scarce, bright pine and floated, but
both are saleable, and epruee is in fair request. Freights
have been firm, and 38i. to Liverpool has been paid ; but
to-day there seems a disinclination to operate, and the
general impression is that a decline will be felt.
