CHINA.

From the Overland Frierul of China of March :10,
we learn that the rebellious outbreaks in the pro-
vines. of the Celestial Empire still continue. The
course of events would seem to indicate an approach-
ing revolution, and overthrow of the present dynasty.
In a letter from Hong Kong, it ts stated that in
the beginning of March, her Majesty's ship Lily had
a trash with some pirates, the particulars of which
have only recently come to hand. Captain San-
derson, it appears, being at Amoy, with the
sloop under his command, was, somehow or
other, informed that some piratical vessels were

at anchor in Le-100 Bay, a short distance from
cluem, v . and so proceeded thither on or about
the 10li ;of February "on desperate deed intent."
When at the entrance of the anchorage he lowered
end manned his boats with intention of boarding 1
three large junks espied ; bat without waiting for
the visit, being, we presume, perfectly advised of 1
Captain Sanderson's motive for a call at Le-100, the 1
three junks at a given signal opened the on the i
Illy, with such effective aim that six shots were I
toilked in the foremast alone, besides other small da-
silage about the bows, two men also being severely
wounded at the same time. Signals were immedi-
ately thrown out recalling the boats, and not a abet j
was returned until tlu:lr crews were on board, whim
the guns being trained for effective broadsides, the
Lily-sunk one—two—in equal turns, every soul of
their crews going to eternity instanter. The third
junk ran in shore and was subsequently destroyed.
A trial of much interest to mercantile men took
',lave on March 27 at the Hong-Kong Supreme
Court. The ease was that of Tronson, Master of the
Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Com-
pany's steam ship Erin, at suit of Dent and Co. This
sewn was brought to recover 10,494 dole., tho all
valuk of 22 chests of Patna opium, shipped at Cal.
cutta on board the Erin in July last, consigned to
the plaintiffs for trans-shipment to Shaw, Bland,
end Shanghae, but to which the plaintiffs
pleaded a beneticial interest entitling them to sue.
This opium, never delivered to the plaintiffs,
formed part of the large quantity of ilitt chests,
taken from the Erin at Singapore, after that vessel
had been in coutect with the Pacha in the Straits of
'..tlalucea; and sold by the superintendent of the
l'ininsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company,
siting under the advice of certain agents of insurance
offices, and others, members of the -Singapore Cham-
ber of Commerce. The trial occupied about sever
hours, and resulted in • verdict for plaintiffs—
damages 10,241 dollars—and interest for one month,
after the rate of nine per cent. per annum (six
months interest was used for, and also twelve ier
cent. alleged difference in exchange; but the latter
claim was disallowed altogether).

CANNIBALISM IN MARTINIQUE.-A Martinique
journal states that a negro and a nrgreas of Macouba, near
St. Pierre, have been arrested for cannibalism. Four years
ago a woodcutter, named Benoit, surprised three negrocs
and a negress in a hut devouring a child that they had
murdered. The cannibals resolved at first to murder Benoit
to ensure secresy, hut at length they consented to spare his
life on condition of his joining in their horrible repast, and
I taking so oath never to reveal what he had seen. The man
kept his oath until by a quarrel between two of the mini-
bale (the other two had died since the event in question),
the (act transpired, and they were arrested. Benoit then
came forward, and revealed the details.

ployers.

BELGIUM.

The Independonee Beige of yesterday says :
We are assured that, atter the resolution taken by the
members of the cabinet to tender their resignations to the
King, orders were sent to the Belgian plenipotentiaries at
Paris to suspend the negotiations entered into for the re-
newal of the convention of December 13, 1845, and to ask
for a prologattoa for some months of that convention whose
effi:cts expire, we believe, on the 18th August next.

SOUTH SHROPSHIRE.

The et,etion for the members of the southern divi-
sion of Shropshire took place at Church Stretton yester-
day. The Hon. R. 11. Clive and the Viscount Newport
were returned without opposition. The former member
declared himself as a supporter of L>rd Derby's govern-
ment, because he thought it was the only one which would
be beneficial to the country. He would support it gene-
rally and cordially. He was in favour of the Militia Bill,
the Chancery Reform Bill, the New Zealand Bill, and of
religious education. Viscount Newport, as a member of
the administration, assured the electors that every attention
would be paid to the agricultural interest, and the interests
of the country eneraliy. No doubt, if the country thought
proper, remedial measures would be introduced. He
should give the government a hearty support, feeling
assured that the measures they would introduce would be
of the greatest benefit to all classes. The Maynooth
inquiry should hays his support, and all measures calcu-
lated to promote the protestant interests of the country.

but immediately made his way to Gainaborough, thence

should have used against any person who overtook him on
the road.
Sentence deferred.

ATTEMPT TO rOIiON.

Mary Ann Blackburn, wife of Thomas Blackburn, land-
lord of the Red Lion Inn in thisotity, was indicted for at-
tempting to poison her husband with laudanum on the 23rd
of March. . • . .

Mr. Flowers conducted the prosocu.ion, and Mr. O'Brien
the defence. . .

Tim evidence for the proem:dims was that the prosecutor
ordered a beetitesk fur hi. supper, which was prepared by a
servant and placed on the bar table, and that in the course
of eating it be complained there was laudanum in it. The
wife, who bail been asked to partake of the fund, refused;
and the husband, finding himself ill, went into the taproom
and said be was poisoned, and then went and lay down, and
fell into a comotose state. It was proved that the prisoner
had sent for laudanum. _

After the evidence for the prosecution had concluded, and
Mr. O'Brien was addressing the jury for the prisoner,
The judge stopped him, and said that in the absence of
proof, motive, or that the woman had actually put laudanum
on the steak, it was unsafe to convict on such a serious
charge.
Verdict, Not Gritty.

WHOLERALE PLUNDER FROM BOOKORILERB._

Jahn White, 40, and Elisabeth IVhite, 02, were indicted
—the farmer for stealing, and the latter for feloniously
receiving, six printed books, value 4!., the property of
James Murray and others.
The male prisoner, who is the son of the other prisoner,
went into the shop of the prosecutors, Messrs. J. Murray
and Co., booksellers, Berners-street, and, having some sus-
picion, Mr. Murray watched and saw him pocket several
books from the ecunter. He gave him into custody. In-
' quirks were made by the police, and the result was that
the other prisoner was taken into custody, it having been
found that she had been pawning other books which had
been stolen from the prosecutors.
The jury found the prisoners Guilty.
The male prisoner bad been twice tried previously for
robberies of the same kind ; on one occasion he was con-
victed and on the other acquitted. Some idea of the extent
to which he and his mother carried on this system of
plunder may be formed when it is stated that the polies
found at a coffee-shop, where it was left with some books
by the male prisoner, a complete list, in the shape of a
foolscap diary, of many hundreds of volumes, in which it
was denoted by figures what the wholesale and retail prier.'
of each work were, and what had been realised by the dis-
posal of them by sale or pawning. Dates were given,
with the name and numbers of volumes purloined by the
male prisoner on each day. and the list comprised almost
every standard work in the English language, besides many
foreign ones. The names of the booksellers from whom
they were stolen were not given, but there were four in-
dictmentsagainst the prisoners. They were, however, tried
only on one, the facts being the same in each.
14c Assistant Judge sentenced them each to eighteen
months' hard labour.

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.

HOME CIRCUIT.-HERTFOUD, JULY 12.

The commisaien for the county of Herts was opened on
Saturday. The calendar and the cause list are both very
light, which is usually the ease in tho summer, and the
general election also tends to prevent the entry of civil
cues._ . . .

Both courts proceeded to business this morning, but no
wes of any importance were disposed of.

OXFORD CIRCUIT.-ABINGDON, JULY 12.

This afternoon the commission for the assizes for Beck-
shire was opened by Mr. Justice Creswell and Mr. Justice
Williams, at the Bndewell Hall, in this town. Their lord-
ships afterwards attended divine service at the parish church
of St. Helen's, and they will proceed to business to-morrow
morning. The most important cause in the Nisi Vrius
Court is that of " Thoyte v. Hobbs," which is an action of
assumpsit by the essignees of a Francis Goddard, en insol-
vent, to recover the value of property amounting to nearly
1,0001., stated to have passed to Hobbs just prior to God-
dard's insolvency. This cause was tried at the Lent &mins,
at Reading, and a verdict given for the plaintiff fur 404 f.
It was subsequently, however, set aside by the Court of
Exchequer on the ground of misdirection on certain points
by Mr. Justice Wightman before it was tried. The criminal
business appears to be heavier than for many years put at a
slimmer anise. The calendar contains the names of 21 pri-
soners for trial, of whom 1 is for infanticide, 4 for man-
slaughter ; arson, 1 ; highway robbery and assault, 3 ;
burglary, 1; Bring a plantation, 1 ; and the remainder are
for petty offences.

BRAZILS.

RIO DE JANEIRO, May 20.
Business of all kinds has remained entirely
paralysedand will, probably, continue so until later
advices from Europe or the States aro 'recited.
Our stock of coffee is rapidly accumulating, the
late high prices having induced growers to
forward their remaining stocks to market ; it has,
however, arrived late, and though dealers are willing
to submit to a reduction of '2OO rein, there seems
to be no likelihood of their meeting with purchasers.
I regret to state that the fever still continues, and
has assumed a more malignant form; those attacked
'by it now rarely escape, and it is a sad fact that
all new comers fall victims to it. Unfortunately,
we are badly off for medical advice: doctors we
have in plenty—clever men, too, no doubt, some
of them; but this disease is new to them, and
they do not know how to treat it; scarcely two,
in fact, agree in this respect—experiments are
tried at hap-hazard, and the miserable patient dies.
The mortality amongst the crews of English mer-
chant vessels has been really awful. Instances there
are of ships losing every soul on board from captain
to cabin boy, and no less than 17 masters of vessels
have been interred in the British cemetery this sea-
son. A melancholy case occurred on board the Eng-
lish barque Queen—the wife and child of the captain
died on Sunday last, he himself was attacked on the
day following and the stricken man now lies
almost without a hope of recovery. Many such cases
occur here and do not shock us so much as formerly,
for we are, unhappily, too familiar with them ; but if
this state of things were known at home, it would,
perhaps, prevent the sacrifice of many lives.
It is a matter of great satisfaction to every well
wisher to Brazil that a large number of German
colonists have within the last few days arrived from
Hamburg. Upwards of 700 of those healthy and
hardworking people were forwarded immediately
upon their arrival into the interior, and many more
aro expected very shortly—a good exchange, the
free and industrious yeoman for the lazy and de-
graded slave.

CAT I'LE,itc.-13VCRINOHAM CALLUS AND WOOL FADL,
July 10.—The supply of all kinds and breeds of store
beasts was extensive. For the prime sorts the demand was
good, and last week's prices were bully sustained; but mid-
dling and inferior beasts experienced a slow sale, prices

tendance. With Sheep we were fairly supplied; the de-

an upward tendency, and all were sold at an early hour.

The horse trade was inactive, but few sales having taken

fur beef to-day; prices a good deal lower, and a p►rt left
unsold. The demand for sheep was fair. We have no
alteration to note in prices, and all sold. Lambs were rather
lower, owing to more being in the market.

MIDDLESEX ELECTION.

The protectionist party have at length deter-
mined that there shall be a contest for Middlesex. Their
final scheme is to bring forward only one candidate,
namely, the Marquis of Blandford, in the hope, no doubt,
that aristocratic influence will prevail against Mr. Bernal
Osborne. A meeting of tories was held yesterday morning
to determine what course should be pursued, and it was
resolved that the efforts of the opposition should be directed
to the return of only one protectionist. Fifteen hundred
pounds is said to have been subscribed on the spot towards
the expenses of the election. The liberals must be firm
and united. To lose the metropolitan county would be
very wrong, and Mr. Bernal Osborne deserves all the
support reformers can give him.

BUCKLNOHAM.

The Marquis of Chandos, one of the Lords of the
Treasury, and Co:onel Hall, of tho Life Huard., were yes-
terday rc•rlected without opposition for this borough. Phi-
lip Box, Etel., Mayar,
The Rev. J. COKER proposed the IML:rquis of Chandos
Mahn MACDONALD seconded the nomination.

11. HUMPUREVI2I, Esq., nominated Colonel Hall. G.
KINO, Esq., seconded.
The candidates were declared duly elected, and they
stood forward to addrms the electors.
Lord CHANDOS said that on the last occasion he had the
honour of standing before them not lung ago he hail been
sent up to parliament as • supporter and a member of Lord
Derbj s ailminbtration ; and he boned he might say that his
conduct and his votes since then had been much to their
satisfactb.n. (" No, and " hear.") He had represented that
borough for a period of six rears, and he hoped so as not to
disturb those good wishes which they entertained towards
hint. Ho had joined Lord Derby's government, believing
that it was adapted to the good of the nation, to the highest
benefit of the people at large. Tho measures which the go-
vernment hat, passed had not belied their professions; and
whether the new erections gave the government a majority
of supporters or not, that point of their history which would
have to be recorded during their reign would be found to
be not the least useful or unimportant. (Hear.)
Colonel HALL urged that the Derby administration was
worthy of his support, and he specified the various mea-
sures which had been passed. With respect to Maynooth,
he said this certainly was a most delicate question. Ile was
determined to support the highest amount of religious free-
dom, for every man should worship God as be thought
proper ; but the Pope had daringly arrogated power in this
lurid, and the parliament were bound to mod. him.
Tho members were then chaired round the town.

ALGERIA.

The latest news from Algiers is important. The
long talked of expedition into Kabylia--some time
time since abandoned as unnecessary, on account of
the submission of certain chiefs—has now been un-
dertaken. On the 9th of May, General Macmahon
left Constantine with a body of 9,500 men for
Kabylia. It marched on Milah, and from that
point into the tribe of the Djcbels, which is in
the centre of the country. From that place he
was to penetrate as far as Collo, and to leave troops
in occupation.

TURKEY.

A letter from Constantinople of the 6th inst., in
the Coast/ft/fumed, says :
A very great agitation has for some days past prevailed
at the Porte on the subject of farming out the customs du-
ties. The person who now has them, M. Dgdzaerli, on the
pretence of having suffered considerable losses, had de-
manded a diminution of seven millions of piastres in the
sum which he had to pay each year or the cancelling of his
contract. The matter having been submitted to the coun-
cil, the reduction had some chance of being granted,
when a new company composed of six of the richest
Armenian bankers of the Turkish capital, and having
at its head Monate!' Noun Pasha, the old favourite
of the Sultan klahmend, cams' forward, offering not
only to continue the present contract, but to give
six millions more. This proposition, which is the
more advantageous for the treasury from the new company
offering every guarantee of security, has nevertheless met ,
with a violent opposition in the council, and what is more
astonishing the Minister of Finance has joined in opposing
it. As to the Grand Vizir, who takes much interest in M.
Diaraerli, he has declared that he could not support his
demands from tho moment that other
_propositions, more
advantageous to the state, were made. The affair is not
yet decided, but it is expected that notwithstanding the
opposition of the Minister of Finance, it will be settled in
favour of the new company. Since the visit of Admiral
Romain-Desfossh to Constantinople it had been almost
settled that the French embassy should order the Charle-
magne, French line-of-battle ship screw steamer, to come
up to Constantinople to allow the Turkish officers and
engineers to examine its build and accommodation, when
suddenly the Sultan, yielding to the remonstrances of Sir
Stratford Canning, changed his mind, and declared that he
could not, without infringing existing treaties, authorise
the vessel to par the Dardanelles. The French Chargé
d'Affaires abstained from entering into any discussion on the
subject, and confined himself to demanding an official com-
munication of the decision come to, in order that he might
transmit it to his government. Things were in this state
when the captain of the Charlemagne sent a lieutenant to
Constantinople for orders as to what be was to do. The
arrival of this officer appeared to have produced some im-
pression on the Porte, and the French Chargé d'Affaires
was informed that a fresh application would be made to the
Sultan on the subject. The probability is that the Cherie-
magne after all will not go up to Constantinople.

SPAIN.

The Madrid journals of tile 13th have not arrived,
neither have the Stock Exchange lists. A letter
of the 13th inst. states that all the mi-
nisters had left foe Aranjuez, and were to hold a
cabinet council, under the presidency of the Queen,
for the choice of a new minister of marine, the per-
son appointed having declined acceptance. M. Mar-
tinez was considered likely to be chosen. The go-
vernment had concluded a negotiation with the
Bank of San Fernando for the advance of the funds
required for the payment of the next half-year's divi-
idends. The conditions obtained by the government
I are considered very favourable, and the interest it is
to pay is 6 per cent.

ITALY.

PIEDMONT.

The Ritorgimento of Turin, of the 15th, announces
that the Marquis d'Azeglio, president of the Council
of Ministers, 1. Galvagno, Minister of the Interior,
and M. Forests, Minister of Justice, have given in
their resignations, in consequence of the election of
M. Ratazzi to the presidency of the Chamber of
Deputies. The same paper adds, however, in a sub-
sequent article, that Count Cavour, Minister of
Finance, has offered his resignation, declaring his
approval of the election of M. Ratazzi, thus offering
himself as a holocaust for that act, in o der to induce
his colleagues to remain in office. The last rumours
current at Turin on the subject were, that the port-
, folio of foreign affairs was to be offered to Count Col-
legno, legno, now Sardinian minister at Parts; M. ltatazzi
was to take the interior, and Count Cavour was to
remain in office as minister of finance, with the pre-
sidency of the council.
The Piednionlese Gazette of the 15th publishes a
royal decree authorising the execution of tho con-
vention between the state and the company for the
construction of the Turin and Savigliano railway.

FAcra FOR ELF.crons.Nlr. H. B. Faruall, one of tho
poor-law inspectors, made the following important state-
ment, at a special meeting of the Preston board of guardians,
relative to the decrease of pauperism in the district of which
he has the supervision, namely, Lancashire and the West
Riding of Yorkshire. It strikingly illustrates the operation of
our present eommeicial policy in this busy hive of industry,
and is well worthy of consideration on the eve of a general
election:—" I find (said Mr. Parnell) that the last census
gives us • population of 3,111,370. Having given you the
number of the population, I now wish to show you how that
population is burdened with pauperism. And lam very
happy to tell you that in the whole of that very large popula-
tion there are at this present moment only 3 7.10 of the
people receiving parochial relief, including men,women, and
children; not heads of families alone, but the whole of
families are included in the list when I tell you that the
pauperism of the district is only 3 7-10 per cent. The de-
crease of pauperism in this dist nct has been most wonderful;
it has been gradually going down ever since 1848. I hold
in my hand a return of the numbers of paupers on the
books of each union in the district in a given month for the
last seven years ; and I find that between 1818 and the pre-
sent day pauperism has been neereued at no less a rate
than forty per cent. la other words, during that period
there have been struck off the books of the various unions
in the district no fewer than 79,388 "dupers, at an annual
cost of upwards of 237,0001. It islmpossible that we should
have supposed in imagined in 1848 or 1849 that in 1852 I
should be able to make such a statement as I have now the
pleasure of submitting to you." Referring more parties.
arty to Preston union, Mr. Parnell stated that here the
decrease of pauperism had been as follows:
In 1848 there were 11,638 paupers on the books.
