The Agram Gazette states that the Croat and
other border regiments now in Lombardy are to be
recalled in the course of a few weeks, and will be
sent home. This is an unostentatious way of in-
creasing Austria's already powerful military force on
the Turkish frontier.

The Vienna Gazette of the 13th contains a patent
in which the Emperor prescribes the rate and nature
of the taxes to be paid in the course of the next
twelve months.

The new tribunal lately constituted in Prussia, to
take cognisance of the crime of high treason, heard its
first case on the llth, when a journeyman tailor

about a year ago. fhe prisoner was found guilty,
and seatenced to three years' imprisonment in the

MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT AT See—Font LIVES
Losr.—Yesterday week four men, named Richard Pah rs,
Nicholas Haswell, William He.kin, and Thomas Lang-
ford, (our fishermen of Cornwall, took a covered barge or
lighter, and railed to Ncwquay after pilchards, intending
to return the following day; instead of which the barge was
found on the rocks under l'entire cliff, a total wreck ; the
fish were floating among the breakers. Hoskins' cap was
picked up, hut no account could be obtained of the poor
fellows, and there cannot be a doubt that they met a watery
grave. As there was a heavy ground sea that night it is
supposed that in coming round Stepper l'oint a sea broke
over them, carried away the mast and bulwarks, and washed
them overboard, and that the barge drifted to where she
wee found. Two of the men Imo left wires end families.

The royal mail steamship Arabia, Commander
hulking, with advices from New York to the 7th
inst., arrived in the Mersey to-night.
The Washington correspondent of the New York
Herald of the oth states that the administration has
accepted the resignation of the Hon. R. J. Walker
as commissioner to China, and that his successor will
probably be appointed before the close of the week.
It is also thought that the mission to France will be
filled in a few days. Secretary Davis haviug re-
turned from the Blue Mountains, the cabinet is again
full, and we shall doubtless soon ascertain whether
we are to be represented by a hard or a soft shell, or
either, at the court of Napoleon 111.
Deaths at New Orleans are over 100 daily. Still,
though the pestilence appears to be on the decrease,
most probably on account of the decreased number
of unacelimated persons in the city, of whom there
were only supposed at last account to be about 6,000
to 7,000, at Mobile the fever was increasing;
deaths nearly thirty daily.
Two slaves who suddenly disappeared from Ports-
mouth, Va., were found secreted on board the
British ship Samuel, which was overhauled in Hamp-
ton roads. A young marine, who had deserted from
the United States ship Pennsylvania, was also ar-
rested on board the Samuel. The fugitives, together
with Captain Morris, of the Samuel, who is believed
to have taken no part in aiding the negroes to escape,
were taken back to Portsmouth. The captain was
committed for examination.

A letter from Boston, dated the 3rd, says: The
barque Cuba, Captain Howe, from Palermo, arrived
at this port yesterday afternoon, having on board, in
irons, John Dudley, one of the crew of the ship
France, Capt. Teal, charged, with three others, with
making a murderous attack upon Capt Teal, on the
20th July last, on board said ship. The France be-
longs to Philadelphia, and is now on her trip from
Pernambuco, bound for New York, with three of her
crew in irons, jointly charged with Dudley. During
the melee Capt. Teal was struck with an axe, and
severely wounded. The second mate, James Knights,
was shot with a pistol, the ball lodging in his shoul-
der, from whenco it was subsequently extracted, and
at last accounts Knights was doing well. Dudley
has been committed to gaol for examination.

The yellow fever still rages in Jamaica, Porto
Rico, Demerata, and some of the other islands. It
appears to have left St. Thomua, and found its way
to HOMO of the islands that have hitherto escaped. At
Montserrat it had broken out, carrying off Captain
and Mrs. Booth, the Governor, the only medical
man in the island, and several others. At Trinidad
it was also raging. The ships generally are healthy,
a few cases occurring occasionally. The purser of
the Dement died on the 20th ult. Her Majesty's
steamer Buzzard arrived at Port Royal, from the
Caymano, on the 20th of August, and sent 23 men
