and, as it were, interlocutory, fan& The equity judges
in general would be fully competent to do their own
work in this as in other departments, if they were
allowed the use of the necessary machinery. But
although not precluded, like their common-law col-
leagues, from deciding questions of fact, they have
no power of hearing ow roe, evidence in open court,
nor, except in certain cases provided for by a recent
statute, and subject, we believe, to the consent of
Pardee, can they impanel juries to assist them. We
by no means suppose that the aid of lanes would be
necessary, or even useful, to them in itself; but as
custom has made a jury necessary to the full and fair
trial of an issue of fact, even when it comes in ques-
tion in a suit of equity, it seems that it might as well
perform its duties under the presidency of the judge
who demands assistance from it.
There are few propositions better established than
that the hearing tad confronting of witnesses in
open court, with the power on either side of
cross-examining those . who appear in opposition,
is the most efficient process for ascertaining the
truth. We have, in a former article, stated
oar reasons for thinking • that a jury is not essen-
tial to this species of trial ; but with or without
a jury,. we have no doubt that it is infinitely more
conducive to the discovery of truth than any system
of written interrogatories and depositions. With this
additional resource placed at its command, we have
little doubt that courts of chancery would display even
snore abundantly than at present their great supe-
riority to the common-law tribunals, in freedom from
pedantic technicalities, and in attention to the sub-
stantial merits of the rases which fall under their
jurisdiction. At present, they are confined to written
evidence in the answers and depositions; nor
is even that portion of the evidence which ie
taken before the master an exception to the general
rule, as it can only be returned to the court
above in a written form. If either party is dissatisfied
with the master's report, his application to the court
for redress must be exclusively considered with re-
ference to these written documents. The judge who
has to decide the point in question has no means of
hearing the witnesses or of forming an opinion of
their respective weight and credibility. Nor is the
examination of witnesses in the masters offices con-
ducted in the searching and satisfactory manner which
is customary in trials at Nisi Prsass. Counsel, in
general, are not present, nor is there the publicity
which in all oases is the best security for the due ad-
ministration of. justice. In matters of account end
inquiries of various kinds, where the object is rather to
obtain additional information than to decide between
conflicting allegations, a supplementary tribanal like
that of the masters in chancery is no doubt indispen-
sable as an auxiliary to the equity courts.
For deciding the class of questions, however, which
are now sent to be tried at Nisi Prism, there appears
to be no good reason why the courts of equity should
not obtain all requisite power. If a jury is still held
to be indispensable nothing would be easier than to
confer upon them the power of summoning them. For
the more rational proceeding of hearing evidence tiro
cote, instead of causing it to be given before aft alien
tribunal, perhaps the authority of the chancellor
would bb sufficient. It is by no means probable
that the burden than imposed on the judges in
chancery would offer any serious impediment to
their disposing of their general business. By fixing
spatial days for the trial of ileums or of actions ana-
hey to writs in equity, each judge would probably
be able to dispose of all the business which he now
*ends to courts of law without inconvenience to him-
self or to the suitors. At present, the principal impe-
dinient to the adoption of so easy a change probably
consists in the supposed belief of the necessity of
juries, a legal presumption which, like many others,
is not entertained by lawyers. We do not, however,
understand why it should be delayed to the possibly
distant period when private opinion as to trial by
jury shall assume the more efficient shape of public
opinion, and proceed to realise its convictions.

" A moiern—a little month." On the 12th of July
we called attention to the reprehensible system pre-
valent in most London hospiWs, of neglecting to have
an officer constantly present, competent and authorised
to perform all ordinary surgical operations. Our text
on that occasion was the death of a poor child in St.
Thomas's Hospital, occasioned less by the presence of
a pea in its windpipe,. than by the want of proper
surgical assistance, owing to the absence of the
so-called house-surgeon of that establishment. It
is possibly accidental—but it is very unfortunate that
a second illustration of the danger of this neglect,
which however has not as yet at least, been attended
with the like fatal result, occurred at St. Thomas's
Hospital on the 14th of August.
On the 27th of last month, Mr. SAMUEL SOLLT,
senior assistsiteergeon in that institution was exa-
mined at the Hiseelon-house in the Case of the at-
tempted alessehestion of Mr. CRAWLEY. It appears
from his weblense that Mr. CitAwtev was carried to
St. Thomas's Hospital immediately after he had been
shot. This was immediately after four o'clock in the
afternoon, but Mr. BOLLT did not see him till half-
past ten at night. Mr. Sous's first visit to the pa-
tient was made six hours and a half after he had beta
taken to the hospital. Yet the case appears, frees
Mr. SoLLY's statement at the Mansion-house, to have
been a very serious one. "I found," he said, " • wound
at the outward angle of the nose on the right side.
The wound communicated with the cavity in the
upper jaw, called the antrum. Upon probing this
wound, I discovered the ball. I then made an in-
cision from the corner of the nese to the angle of the
mouth, to avoid the appearance of a scar. I enlarged
the opening at the bone, and extracted the knee
Again: " The nature of the wound, as it wee. am
dangerous to life." We have thus Mr. Sones evi-
dence that the wound was dangerous to life, and that
an operation was required. We believe it is the
practice of the best surgeons, where peculiar elesnme
'Lances do not forbid, and none such existed be the
present case, to extract foreign bodies from womb as
speeddp as possible. It appears from the evidasse et'
the policeman that this was done at Guy's Hospital in
the case of the prisoner. We donot hazard the elision
that the life of Mr. CRAWLEY was endangered by the
delay in performing the operation—that his life was
dependent on the imufediate removal of the ball ; but,
at least, his sufferings were increased, and the risk in-
curred of a fatal termination of them by superinduced
inflammation or fever. The light of the day, too, was
lost, and this is a matter of no trivialmoment in
delicate surgical operations.
Our object is not to inculpate individuals or parti-
cular institutions. Mr. SOLLY may not have been
sent for, or he may have been wrongly informed that
the case was not urgent. It was probably acci-
dental that while a competent surgeon was not on
the spot at first in St. Thomas's Hospital, there was
some one at Guy's Hospital able to perform the
necessary operation. We seek to awaken the public
to a right sense of the mischievous consequence of the
system which prevails in almost all the London hoe-
pitale—the accepting of gratuitous services from me-
dical men, who are ambitious of being nominally con-
nected with such institutions, and over whom the
governors have no control.
Judging from the interval which elapsed between
the pea m the windpipe case, and the bullet in
the upper jaw case, a similar instance of neglect is
now " due" at St. Thomas's Hoepital—to borrow a plus,*
used by gunpowder manufacturer. when the average
period which intervenes between the blowing rip of
their mills hes elapsed without an accident occurring.
And who can say how many unreported cases of neglect
may have occurred during these two months in the
other hospitals? It is now for the public to decide
whether our metropolitan hospitals shall be habitually
left without the attendance of medical officers who
Can afford relief in the most dangerous cases. The
pressure of public opinion brought to bear on the go-
vernors and committees of our hospitals can make
them feel that they are held responsible, as long aa the
'stele prevails., for the lives of all persons
within 'surgical e-

But these and other otectionst which'
doobtieas appear strong to men absorbed in cowl-
,' &rations •of personal interest, or emmeshed in pro-
limionel etiquette, are utterly worthless When
weighed against the life of a single human being. If
the present surgeons and ardstant-surgeons are above
their Waimea, there are plenty of others to
be had, quite as competent, who for salaries which
the hospitals can amply and to pay will undertake
to be permanent resedente, and discharge all the
duties of hospital surgeons. Oar hospital must be
made what the private residence of a surgeon cannot
be, a place Where effective surgical aid may be pro-
cured at any hour et the day or night This was one
of the for which they were founded, and
endow with princely revenues; and the private in-
terests or vanity of medical officers ought not to be
allowed for one moment to frustrate the design of
these noble institutions.

We have already referred to the subject of legal
edocatien in this journal. Thera never was a period
in the history of our law when the training of its
professors was more important.
In the first place, the dykes of form rani technicality
around the level expanse of law are no longer so
strong as they have been. A disposition to Improve-
ment has shown itself, and that among lawyers.. It
is a matter of vital moment that all changes in a
system which is entwined with the whole life, pro-
perty, and business of the nation, should be cautiously
and wisely carried out. The innovators ought to
know not only how to cut the new channels for these
long stagnant waters, but in what direction these
channels ought to run to dispense the greatest pos-
sible amount of benefit. Reforming times should,
above all others, be educated times and thoughtful
times. This holds tree of all things, but of none so
deeply and essentially as of law. There is another
reason which gives peculiar importance to the subject
of legal education at this moment.
No member of the profession can tiff to perceive
that great changes are impending in the legal admi-
nistration of the country. The jurisdiction of the
superior courts is already extensively impaired and
seems likely to be even mare narrowed. Already the
county courts are drawing towards them the eyes of
the bar as the possible scene of future labours. There
are already tolerable pickings for barristers to be
found in the district bankruptcy courts. Hitherto,
barristers have only paid flying visits to the provinces
periodically : the time may not be far dittant when
at least such important towns as Birmingham,
Manchester, and Liverpool may be graced with
their permanent residence. Local connexion
will become important in proportion as busi-
ness becomes localised, and many are likely to
adopt the profession of advocate who are at present
otherwise disposed of. To keep up the character of
the bar under such circumstances all the elevating
influences of a compulsory and higher education will
be needed. Such an education, moreover, would be
• barrier in the way of ignorant and uneducated men,
who have no business in a calling which requires the
highest attainable elevation of self-respect to secure its
followers from certain dangerous Winnow, almost
inseparable from the practice. edit.
With these reasons for thinking that the barrister
of this day should be better educated than his fore-
runners, it is gratifying to reflect that the machinery
of education, at least, is at hand..
In our inns of court we possess the hall of a legal
university—we might rather say, whips, the dead
body of such a university—once in 10 activity,and into
which life may be again infused, without any danger
to the FRANKENSTEINS who should set about it.
It must be remembered that we are now speaking
exclusively of the barrister. The education of the
solicitor is a matter of at least equal importance, had
deserves to be separately nested. Many witnesses
examined before the committee appointed lad session
to inquire into legal education, expressed a straw
sense of the desirableness of enlarging the scope of the
law faculty in our universities. There are many men
not destined to the legal profession, :to whom a
general knowledge of the common law, and its
administration, would be of great value- Such a
knowledge would do something to increase the effi-
ciency of an unpaid magistracy. We should have
leas nonsense talked at quarter sessions, less money
' wasted in appeals, lees stupidity and tyranny in the
justioe-room. The peer in embryo would not be the
worse for knowing something of that law in the ad-
ministration of which the theory of the constitution
constitutes him a judge of last instance, an authority
from which there is no appeal. And, above all,
members of the House of Commons would be ren-
dered better qualified for their legislative functions
by being taught even a smattering of the law they
take upon them to alter and amend. But however de-
sirable as elementary legal education at the university
might be, there is little ground for hope that each a
project could ever be realised.
While the standard of honours continues to be what
it is at present, reading men will find ample occupa-
tion of their time in strivintio attain it. Non-
reading men will be non-read men. If they do
study, it is for a whim, and eir industry takes
whimsical directions. There are lectures enough, and
most useful ones, open to them at both Oxford and
Cambridge, of which they show no disposition to
avail themselves. Unless law was made a subject of
examination for ordinary degrees, we cannot suppose,
for a moment, that any sense of the future utility of
such knowledge would draw them to the law lecturer.
Without, however, looking for any real elementary
law study at the universities, there would be no diffi-
culty in combining the inns of court into a law uni-
versity in London, of which the separate inns should
be the colleges. Lincoln's-inn might furnish its staff
of teachers for equity and real propert law; the
Inner and Middle lemple and Gray's-inn for the other
branches. The student, at entrance, should have to sub-
mit to a preparatory examination of the same character,
but more searching, than that now established at the
Inner Temple. Attendance at lectures should be
registered. Examination in the lectured subjects
should be the condition of admittance to the bar ; and
the name barrister should again take its original
eignifloance, marking the lowest grade in the faculty
of law, as bachelor in that of arts. There might be
hewer examinations, and those who took distinguished
places in the lists might be preferred for poets, for
which a certain number of years standing is now the
only and unsatisfactory condition. All these arrange-
ments are suggested in the report of the committee.
They have the unusual advantage of being easily
practicable, as wellundoubted recommenda-
tion of being very much wanted now, with the
prospect of becoming inevitable very shortly.

IF a correspondent, who is in a position to be well
informed, and whom we have generally found well
informed, has not been misled, the real 'Zia of Loofa
PHILIPPE in his oonspiracy against the Prince Pontiff
of Rome, so faintly denied by the Journal des Debra.,
are quite worthy of the author of the Spanish mar-
riages. It would seem there is reason to suspect
that a plot to violate the principle of hereditary mo-
narchy, not in behalf of the people, but of an ambi-
tious individual, is the real object, which is sought
to be concealed under a preten desire to sappoit
an obstructive policy in Italy, just as it has been in
Spain. The statement of the correspondent alluded
to is as follows :
" If any court has reason at present to be caution.
of drawing attention to its weakness, it is that of
Austria. We proclaim unwillingly the secret foibles
even of public characters when no public aim is to be
forwarded by lifting the veil of secrecy. But when
the better feelings of Europe are outraged by con-
temptuous treatment towards a potentate who com-
mands the respect of the virtuous, and the admiration
of the bold—when a sovereign is threatened with
violence because he ventures without the consent of
perfidious allies to call the hearts of his people the
true foundation of his throne—then it is a dereliction
of duty to keep silence ; and to appear ignorant of
pasting court intrigues is toshare the cnmes of courtiers.
Why, the empire which thus throws down the gauntlet
to civilised Europe is a disjointed mosaic which the
first petty state that is resolute enough may break up!
The emperor totters on a throne by sufferance that is
already undermined by his mates of the palace. The
only uaoertainty has long been what asylum told
be least disreputable for him and for them. Th mi-
nister whose trembling hand can but just sign the
into

of Memo hope to hasten a catastrophe by
into so widespread a broil as a trial of
between Vienna and Horne would prove P Has the
heir-presumptive ambulated the forces en both aides P
Because Rome was powerless as long as its councils
ran counter to the torrent of feeling in Europe, is
she to be powerless when she rides upon the
stream P How can even a Bavarian princess
expect that she will rule the tide which her
brother's hand was not powerful enough to stem P
It is true that to strengthen the popular cause, is to
call the people to judgment, and a new standard of
right and wrong must then be acknowledged by
courts. But no man of ripe age can doubt that, how-
ever it may be possible to keep a people in ignorance
of its might, and to cajole it into suission, sheer
madams alone would throw a firebrand to a nation
jut roused to feel its strength, especially when such
inflammable elements as those constituting the
Austrian court were within its reach. Such a torch
is Ferrara likely to prove."

The Praia affair dill continued, on faraday, to
occupy a large portion of the Paris journals. The
Debate gave 12 columns to it. We give elsewhere
selections from these documents.
The report of the assassination of a female by the
Prince of Eckmahl (which we mentioned yesterday),
was contradicted, front authority, in the ministerial
. .
eeennig journal, but the public and the prem are
not sated about it. The following more definite
amount of the matter is given in the Gazette des
2Wlnsisaus :
About a month back Prince d'H--, who, for the mo-
ment, was Living In an apartment in a furnished hotel in
the Rue Bt. Honord, kept by the son-in law of one of the
huisalers of the Tribunal of the Seine, wca suddenly seised
with a fit of nuaknees, just as be was ascending one night to
his bedroom, preceded by his valet-tie-oho/able, who held
a light. Without soy apparent motive, be threw himself on
the servant, struck him repeatedly, and after hewing forced
him down pu the stairs, trampled him under 2 ot. " But
do you notlmow me, Monseigneur I" cried the man: " it is
I, your servant !—you want to kill me I" *l• I know tnerfectly
well who ',mare!" replied the Prince, redoubling his blows;
" but I must absolutely kill you, and I will let you go only
when dead!" The cries of the valet roused up the other oc-
cupants of the hotel, end they rescued the unfortunate man
from his master's bands ; the prince, however, in place of
entering his own room, slipped out of the hotel and escaped.
It would seem that it was at this moment, whilst still under
the empire of his fit of madness, that he proceeded to the re-
@ideate of a woman, with whom he had previously been on
the most intimate term', and who had even accompanied him
in a voyage of circumnavigation which he made four or five
years ago. He gave way on seeing her on the night in ques-
tion, it is said, to great violence, and even gave her a stab of
a knife in the breast, yet without doing her any great injury.
However that may be, the prince's mother came the next
day in her carriage, accompanied by a physician, who de-
clared the prince's mind to be considerably affected. She
carried him off, it is said, to her property in Berry, and
shortly after he was taken to Aix, in Savoy, for medical
treatment. No declaration was made to the authorities of
his conduct, and no complaint was preferred. These circum-
stances were, in fact, a month old, when public report seized
on them and gave them to the world with versions both in-
exact and contradictory."

Advice' from Berne to the 29th have been received.
The vorort, in pursuance of the resolutions of the
diet, had made official communications to the cantons
of the So nderbund to discontinue the measures con-
demned by the diet, and to cease importing arms and
warlike supplies, and erecting fortifications and en-
trenchments. The answer of the cantonal govern-
ment of Lucerne to these had been received, and was
laid by the executive government of the confederacy
before the diet on the 28th. The council of state of
Lucerne has declared formally that it does not ac-
knowledge the validity of the resolutions of the diet
of the 20th, 23rd, and 31st July, notwithstanding
that these bad been adopted by a large
majority in the diet, and that the cantonal
government of Lucerne would resist the execution
of these resolutions by every means at its disposal. It
was considered as certain that the other cantons of
the league would return the same answer to the
•
vorort. •
Convoys of gunpowder, and munitions of war,
coming from Germany and passing through the can-
ton of Zurich to that of Zug, had been seized, and'
sequestrated by the cantonal authorities of Zurich,
m accordance with the late resolution of the diet,
after a like seizure in Tessin. The vorort
gapee signified its entire approbation of this measure to
the Council of State of Zurich, and recommended the
greatest vigilaaoe to the cantons bordering on those
of the league, to intercept such supplies.

The intrigues which produced the royal marriages'
of October, 1846, at Madrid. are again in high
activity, and, as before, the leaders and their agents
are divided between Paris and Madrid. Couriers
run daily between the capitals, and the wires of the
telegraph are kept in constant motion. On Wednes-
day the Rue de Conrcelles was the theatre of action.
The Dukes de Montpensier and d'Aumale came there
from St. Cloud, where they met MM. Duchatel and
Montebello' and had a long private conference whit
the Queen Dowager Christina. A special courier had
arrived from Madrid in the morning, and the tele-
graph had been at work during the afternoon. M.
Martinez de la Rosa, the agent and confidant of the
Queen Dowager at Madrid, had, it was reported,
sent important despatches. La Pattie says that the
report is, that Queen Isabella demands that her sister
and the Duke of Montpensier shall return to Madrid,
otherwise she will quit that capital; and it is further
reported that the moderado party, led by Martinez
de la Rosa, or, what is the same, inspired by Queen
Christina, demands that General Serrano be imme-
diately exiled.
The Madrid journal, and correspondence of the
28th ult., say that Narvaez was received in the most
gracious manner by the Queen, at 7 o'clock in the even-
ing of the 27th, and had an audience of the King-
Consort at the Pardo the next day. His hotel was
besieged by visitors, among whom was observed
General Serrano. Of coarse nothing certain was
known as to the communications of the Duke of
Valencia with her Majesty, but it was assumed that
he was ordered to furm a cabinet; and lists of the ,
possible or probable ministry were circulated, among
which the following wee among the most accredited.
Narvaez, premier and foreign affairs ; Cordova, war ;
Orlando, finances; Sartorius or Seim Lozano, inte-
rior; Arrazola, or Gonzales Moron, justice; Olivan,
marine.
Mr. Bidwer had a long conference with the Queen
on the evening of the 26th.

Italy is at present the theatre on which the struggle
between the constitutional and the absolutist prin-
ciples is exhibited, and the eyes of Europe are
directed to it. Every courier from its frontiers is the
bearer of intelligence of the crafty intrigue or brutal
violence of the diplomatic or military agents of
Austria on the one hand, and the excitement and
enthusiasm of the Italian population, repressed and
regulated, however, by the prudent counsels of the
Sovereign Poatiff, whom they regard as the apostle of
regeneration, on the other. A reproduction of the
Roman conspiracy lately rendered abortive has taken
place at Leghorn, happily with a similar result. The
Nourellisk, a Marseilles paper, gives the following
particulars, which, it says, may be regarded as offi-
cial :—The Austrian consul at Leghorn suborned
agents to produce before his office a mock entente, and
to induce the lowest of the populace to join in palling
down the arms of Austria from the gate, break-
ing them in pieces, and trampling them under
foot, dragging the flag through the mud, and burning
it, and finally setting fire to the house. The people
at Leghorn, as at Rome, assumed the office of the
police, stopped the contemplated outrage, and ten-
dered the pilot abortive. " Yon will judge," says the
correspondent of La Nourellisee, "of the cruel vicis-
situdes in the midst of which we live, beholding a
barbarous nation, which has long oppressed Italy,
use these most infamous means to attain its end—a
pretext for invasion."
The Austrian troops continue to augment on both
banks of the Po. A strong advanced guard of Tyro-
lese chasseurs bad passed the bridge of Lasorcuro
two thousand men were at Rovigo, and twelve batta-
lions quartered at &meth" were ready to peas the
river. Meanwhile, two reports have arrived, which
remaintobe confirmed. The first, that Cardinal Ferretti
has summoned Austria, through her ambassador at
Rome, to withdraw from the pontifical territory under
menace of withdrawing the nuncio from Vienna, and
delivering passports to the ambassadors at Rome : the
second, that Prince Metternich has replied that this

It became known that the Minister of Sardinia had
been received by his Holiness when the adhesion of
the cabinet of Turin to the liberal cause was an-
nommed, and the aid of the army and navy of that
stab tendered. Immediately a movement was
manifested, the object of which was to give
smitression to the popular enthusiasm under the
windows of the hotel of the Sardinian embassy.
The injunctions of the Pope to avoid every demon-
stration in reference to the corps diplamatique, how-
ever, checked this movement.
Signor Medici Spada, pro-Minister of War, has
been dismissed, and is replaced by General Gabrielli.
This has been a subject of great popular rejoicing,
the dismissed functionary having been in fact a crea•
tare of the Austrian embasey.
The Augsburg Gazette' under the date of Rome
the 21st ult., says that a detachment of Swiss guards,
which was garrisoned at Forli, had occupied the forts
of Urbino and Malabergo, on the road from Ravenna
to Ferrara, in consequence of the Austrians having
advanced twenty-five miles from Ferrara, and also',
having made a sortie from the fortress of Comacchio.
The same journal says that the Austrians have also
established a port before Porte Reno, in the direction
of Bologna, and send patroles through the country to
a distance of several miles round. It is added that
the King of Sardinia had sent troops to the Tuscan
frontier, and that everything presented the aspect of
war.
The Alba, a Florence journal, under the date of
Rome, 21st ult., says that in a council of state com-
posed of twelve cardinals, the question has been dis-
cussed to excommunicate Austria. Cardinal Ferretti
being told that the order for 8,000 muskets would dis-
please Austria, replied that ho had ordered 12,000 ! All
the pontifical regular troops have marched from Rome
for Forli. The city is left exclusively to the national
guard. The Pope was excited to the highest pitch of
indignation on being informed that Count D'Auesperg,
who commands the garrison of Ferrara, is the same
who had so atrocious a share in the massacres of
Tarnow.
It is stated in the Italian journals that Minardi, the
spy, has been surrendered by the Tuscan government
to the pontifical authorities. The Turin Gazette says that
Cardinal Ciacchi had published& proclamation, inviting
the whole population of Ferrara to evacuate the town
and withdraw with himself and the pontifical authori-
ties to a small place in its neighbourhood, leaving to
the Austrians nothing but the stones and mortar of the
place they have seized in contempt of all national
rights. This announcement excited extraordinary
enthusiasm in Turin.
Some journals have announced that the squadron
of Admiral Parker was to proceed to the coasts of
Italy.
Sardinia, which has offered its co-operation to the
Pve, has a population of above five millions and a
MU, an army on the war footing of 100,000, and a
navy of 28 ships, five of which are 60 gun frigates.
Le Constitutionnel gives the following :
We have received news from Naples to the 22nd ult. The
intelligence from the Calabria was uncertain, the govern-
ment intercepting letters. General Statella hs:d, it is said,
demanded reinforcements. There was also great agitation
in the Abruzzi', and 2,000 soldiers had been sent there. It
was said that nothing bur prompt concessions could prevent
en outbreak. The recent diminution of taws was accord. d
by. the King, contrary, it was stated, to the advice of hi.
ministers. His Majesty had also changed some officers of the
police, and had caused the arrests which were being made
in the capital to be suspended. la Sicily great severity was
manifested by the officials. Letters were isteroepted ; ar-
rests made, and the liberals persecuted in every way. Five
sub-offleers of the garrison of Palermo had been arrested, as
had also two brothers, named Gallo. Thee. last were con-
veyed to the dungeons of Castello in handcuffs. The people
were agitated, and the garrison was I. a state of great alarm.
Discontent reigned throughout the whole island.
According to the following extract from the Ton-
lonnais of the 29th ult., matters would appear to have
even gone farther :
The Neapolitan frigate Stromboli has just arrived here

MADRID, Ave. 29.
I. bad but jot time to announce the arrival of
Narvsea yesterday. It happened in this wise :--he entered
the city at 9in the morning, sitting in a post-chaise with
Roe de Olano, and accompanied by a considerable military
escort. Many of his friends—that is, men mien lablas a
lively sense of gratitude for favours to come—Went Mg to Oda
to the dust of the triumphal entry under the arch of the
I'uerta de Fuencarral. No sooner had the general, who
has been jolted, as Horace Walpole said, like a pea upon a
drum," during the last week, from Paris, taken a few hours'
repose, than his hoteled the Calle de Maria Christina (which,
by the way, has been just bought by the government for two
millions of reale) was beset by crowds of meadicants for
office, more eager for the woe= their services than

his downfall in the spring of last year. While a new alliance

FRANCE.—A max RavoLunox.—On Monday
and Tiesday the rue St. Honed wee the scene of tumults
which caused some alarm. The cause of them, however,
was very trivial. A muter shoemaker, living opposite the
°retain had given come work to a workman, for which he
eras to ;wive 3f. ; but, when the man took it home, the
muter refused to pay more than 21. 60c., on the ground that
the work was WI done. The workman then went and
assembled some of his companions, who examined the work,
and declared that it wee well executed. But the master
still refused to pay, whereupon the workmen loudly ex-
pressed their diseatisfection. This caused a crowd to assemble,
consisting chiefly of workmen, and it iiteressed rapidly every
moment. Threats were uttered spinet the muter, and at '
length stones were thrown, which smsehed the windows of
the shop. An attempt was also made to break in the shop
front. An omnibus was seized, and the people were about
to upset it, when detachments of soldiers and municipal
guards dispersed them. At about eight o'clock last evening,
a crowd again mumbled before the shop, which wu pro-
tected by soldiers. The mob did not interrupt the traffic of

contrary to the law, allowed three new locomotives to run on
the line without having been previously examined and
Mated; and for having permitted two others to be used
without being furnished with a ateamgettge. These gentle-

clared that a mistake had occurred respecting the day when
they were ordered to attend. The court, paying no atten-
tion to this representation, condemned each of the persons to
I.ooofr. fine, for each of these two contraventions, and
ordered the Northern Railway Company to be conjointly re-
sponsible for the cost.
FATAL DUEL.—On Monday • fatal duel with
swords was fought near Enghien, between two pupils
of the Military School of St. Cyr. One of them fell, and
was earried to the house of the physician at Enghien,
where he expired a few minutes after he was brought in.
They were attended to the ground by two other pupils. The
deceased is said to be the son of a colonel, and his adversary
is only twenty years old.

her Grace the Duchess of Praslin, named Sarah Parseval,
from 60 to 65 years of age, residing in the Passage de
Tivoli, and living on en income of 1,500 f. granted her by
her former pupil, was so shocked on being suddenly in-

GERMANY. AusrittA.—The following
prank, dated dated Vienna, Aug. 27, appears in the Bretlauer
Zeigursg ;—" The conduct of Count Auersperg, at Ferrara,
has received the approbation of government ; perhaps, how-
ever,
some means may be attained by negotiation to rub
down the sharp edges of existing relations.
VIENNA, Auo. 25.—An imperial rescript ordains
that the Hungarian language shall henceforth be employed
in all transactions of public business in the Grand Duchy
of Transylvania. The Saxon immigrants domiciled in the
country are alone exempted from obedience to this law. In
conformity to the 31st article of the Constitution they ere
allowed to continue to use the Saxon language. The com-
mission appointed at Vienna. to inspect books is about
to be organised anew. The Aulic Councillor, Von
Martinez, is to be appointed director of the censorship, with
two assistanta, Mmers.:llblel and Krankhoffer ; and a court
of appeal, called the College of the Censorship, is to be esta-
blished to reverse their decisions when complained of.
Disturbances are said to have broken out in Carin-
thia. The following hae been sent to the Journal Allemand
de Franefort Aug. 18.—About two miles from K logen-
forth are situated some villages, which have for a length of
time paid tithes to the Benedictines of Ebendorf. News being
spread that tithing was abolished, the peasantry refused
paying it to the convent. The effort* of the authorities, and
even the interference of the military from li.lagenfurth, were
unable to conquer the resistance of the peasants. Armed
with scythes and clubs the country people seemed deter-
mined to resist to their utmost, and even disposed to raise
up the neighbouring villageeby the means of signals on the
mountains. It is, however, hoped, that a second detachment
of troops and the exhortations of the chief of the circle will
put a stop to these disturbances."
PRUSSIA.—It is stated in Galignani that the
title of High Chnuoelleir of the kingdom, which hos been in
abeyance since the death of the Prince de Hardenberg, will
be bestowed on M. de Bodreschwing. It is said that Count
d'Arnita is about to enter the cabinet, hut it is not yet known
what department will be confided to him.
The burning of forests is increasing in a
frightful manner in Prussia. The last intelligence an-
nounces that in the province of Westphalia alone bee large
forests were is full conflagration. It would appear that the
extreme dryness of the summer has been the cause of this
unfortunate occurrence.

THE PRASLIN MURDER.
We give from the proces co bat the dcpoeitious of
more of the witneoes
EMIL Manousatin BOTTIBET LE CLAIRE, aged 30,
femme de ehambre in toe service of the Duchess de raslin,
residing in Paris, rue de Faubourg St. Honore (examined on
the 19th of Aug., 1847, by M. Browse* jugc d'instruction
of the Tribunal of the Seine, in presence of the procure=
du roi) : For seven months I here belonged to the household
of the Duke de Feudist, especially attached as femme de 1
cliambre to the service of the duchess. As soon as I entered
the service, I perceived that this lady was goodness itself,
but, on the contrary, that she suffered the most cruel annoy.
antes. Mdlle. Luui, the governess of her children, bad
alienated from her the heart of her husband, as well IS
the hearts of her children. The duchess never comcialia
but I have often found her by surprise s
tears on her table. About six weeks ago the
sions between the duke and duchess became more serious,
and Mdlle. de Lussi quitted the house ; and during the
familyin days pros preceded this departure Ues
of the duke eeded no longer, as they boil
been accustomed to do, to take their meals with Mamba
Sebestiani, on the first floor of the hotel. The duke and
his children took their meals in the dining-room at the back
of the bongo ; the duchess, on her part, was served with her
breakfast and dinner in her own boudoir. About the same
period Mdlle. Bertha de Praslia, the second of the young
ladies, was attacked with scarlatina. To be nearer to her
daughter, whom they did not permit her to see, the duchess
passed several nights in the chamber of Josephine, the
femme de chanstrre to the young ladies. This circumstance
at the end came to the knowledge of the Duke de Pradin,
who, in consequence, was strongly excited against Josephine
who was dismissed by the duke nimselt on the 14th of this
month. lie refused to let her remain tome days in the
house. She is, however, here at this moment waiting
to return to Vaudreuil, her native place. At the
commencement of July_ last all the family went to re-
side at Praalin. As Mdlle. de Loam remained at Faris
the duchess again took her meals with her husband
and her children. During this period the duke went several
times to Paris; but madame did not quit the Chateau
Vane Poulin. Oa Tuesday, the 17th, about half-put four
*Wok the duke, the duchess, and all the household re-
amed in Paris. We quitted Praslin about half-put (oar in
dm 'Mermen. The duchess went in her coach directly to
Onebellle, with her children, Mdlle. Marie and M. Raynald
do Praslin. The duke went in another coach to Melun,
.where the servants also went in an open carriage, a diligence
conducting us from that town to the railroad station at Cor-
i halite, from whence we returned to Paris by the seven
o'clock Vein. I am not aware whether the duchess was in
the lame compartment of the train with the duke. On
arrival at Pane I had to look after the baggage, but the duke
ordered me to proceed at one; to the betel, which I
did in • )lame. I had to prepare the apartment for the
duchess. Immediately on my arrival I did so. I
took in the coach with use the we de ,suit. The
duchess arrived at the hotel at half or three-
quarters of an hour after me—that is to may, be-
tween half-past nine and ten o'clock. On arriving she was
hungry, and had a tray brought to her, and for want of wisp
she had some bread with milt, and some or-gent. Wine was
in the decanter on the table. I placed all three things up=
a small table near the sofa. The duchess then proceeded to
eat at about a quarter-put ten, after which I assisted her Is
=dressing, and then retired to my own chamber to take
something. About eleven o'clock 1 entered for the last ties
into her chamber. The duchess was in bed and reading.
There was a wax candle anon the night table, and another
in a different part of the chamber, near the door of the boa-'
doir. Madame said she had lighted that candle because
she believed that 1 would not return. I said to her that if
I
I put out that candle, which would burn all night, would,
if she pleased, replace it by en old lamp in yellow
planed --- which 1 did, and aouLthe lamp in the fire-

emotion that she hertslf mitred the bar of iron when ft
woe neglected to be foamed. Madame, when I quitted her,
sleeked me to be with her on the morrow morning at six, as
, hed many things to do during the only day that she
would imee at Pans, for it was inteeded that we should
• -me the day after for the baths at Dieppe. I observed
,ring my absence Madame had eaten the remainder
, breed, and the tray and half the bottle of syrup
on the feeble of which I have spoken, and she had
zed the bottle of !niter upon her night-table. In going
em the toilet of =dome I met the duke in the ante-
chamber' going towards bis apartment with something
under his arm. I did not speak to hint. I then fastened
the second door of the antechamber, which is near the
fountain, but the other will not shut at all, and I placed
the key in a spot at the side of the chamber, where a
stranger would not be able to seeit. The fastening of this
door was the only fastening to the bedchamber of the
duchess, for the door of her toilet, and the two doers coup
municating with the ante-room, were never fastened. The
second door of this chamber miht certainly be fastened with
' the aid of a key on the iaside, but the duchi es was not in
' the habit of doing so at night. She might do so during the

as I went down stairs. I met Auguste when I went
down. I arrived at the same time as Auguste at the door of
the ante-Chamber at the bottom of the stairs; for he also had
heard the noise of the bell and the cries. Auguste took the
key to open the door ; but when he endeavoured to do so it
' resisted his attempts, and he then perceived that it was fes.
tened by a lock on the inside. Auguste and myself then
went round by the grand hall, and on arriving together at
the door communicating with the bedchamber, we found it
fastened by an interior key, and we found it impossible to
open it, notwithstanding we made every effort to force it.
The cries had then ceased, and there was the silence of death.
We then went into the garden by the descent from the grand
hall. Auguste tried the bleeds of the bedchamber and of
the boudoir, but they were fastened. We then proceeded
through the garden to the extremity of the boudoir, and
from thence we perceived the door leading into the place
called the wooden staircase open ; this leads to the ante-
chamber separating the apartment of the duke and duchess.
We proceeded by this way to the dressing-room, of
which we found the dour perfectly open. Augusta then
proceeded to the entry of the bedchamber of mauame' but
' he withdrew instantly, snyiog, " Some misfortune has hap.
primed, I perceive a smell of gunpowder." These words very
MOM frightened me, and I completely lost my messes. We
demi not eater into the chamber, and we withdrew through
the Nelda and the grand saloon to procure amistance. It
was vary dark in the dressing-room, of which the shutters
were hermetically fastened, though it was daylight outside,
I did not me any person in the garden, and I went to Ma.
dame Merville, the laundress of madame, who had been in
the service of her family for forty years. M. Merville went
with Charpentier, but I remained in the courtyard
with Madame Merville. They introduced themselves
by the ante-chamber of the dressing-room into the cham-
ber of the duchess, where they found her same.
sated. They returned to us to inform us of this
frightful circumstance. I ran to the porter to tell
him to go and seek a surgeon. I believe that they then re-
turned to the chamber of madame, but I am ignorant of
what passed as I remained in the court-yard. I did not go
into the chainber of the duchess until after the body had
been covered with a sheet, and when the cornmisseire de
police had arrived. Every night they took care to fasten the
window. at the inside, and the doors at the beck of the
house, with the aid of bare of iron, and to each shutter a bell
was !emceed. The valet de cherishes attached to the per-
sonal service of the duchess was very careful to place the
bona iron and the bells in their proper positions. He re-
mained on that occasion at Vieux Preslin, as he was not to
go to Dieppe ; but I am certain that on the night of the 17th
the iron bars and the bell were placed in tue window of
the bedchamber of the duchess. I uid not go that night
into the boudoir. It was the duke himself who said
to the valet de chembre, Melanie, that he did not in.
lead to take him with him to the baths et Dieppe,
as the attention of a sick domestic would not be
gedielent for the service of a family. He was to have
Nees to Paris in a few days, where he was to have stopped
emu time, and then he was to have returned to Prune.
Idatdme generally slept in Paris in the dinner hall before
the little green saloon. In the day time they took away the
mattress on which he slept, hut at night they placed it be-
tween the two doors. From thence he could perfectly hear
the sound of the bell of madame, which was under the vesti-
bule. The bell made a groat noise, and could be beard
nearly all over the house. It was this noise that Charpentier
begird, and which made him go to the chamber of the duchess,
and I was awakened at the same time by it. During the
night of the 17th and 18th the porter, Jacques, ley in the
dining-hall, upon the mattress of Maximo, but, by some fats-
lity or another, be went out that morning at 4 o'clock instead
of his ordinary hour, 5 o'clock. I am not aware if this cir-
cumstance, of which I was not informed at the time, was
known to other persons in the house.
Axasraee ANGELIQCs Barnmite, aged 36, servant at
the hotel of the Duo de Pradin, examined on the '2oth of
Almost, by M. Brousseis ; For six years my husband and
=
have
been servants at the hotel, which belongs to
Sebastiani. Ho placed us there, end pays us our
wages. We were received at the recommendation of M.
, secretary to the Chamber of Deputies, who presented
netts Duke de Pradin, by whom we were engaged fur
the service of his father-in-law. Whoa our masters Dom-
pied the house we seldom went there ; but when, on the eon-
teary, they were in the country, we took care of the place. I
speak more particularly of the Duke de Prindic, Madams
Champagne having the care of the apartments of the mar-
shit. I have often heard speak of the bed understanding
which existed between the duke and duchess, although I
have never sought to make the domestics talk on the subjeet.
I said to them, on the contrary, " Let me be quiet. I do
not wish to hear anything." I have, however, not been ig-
sorest that they attributed this misunderstanding to the
fatal influence which was exercised over the duke by
Mdlle. de Luzzi, governess of his children, with whom it was
said he carried on an adulterous connexion. I have not seen
anything myself winch would be able to establish this cul-
pable relation. All that I know is, that she was a bad
woman, towards whom I have always entertained feeling! of
repulsion. One day, when I was in her chamber, attending
her because she had come alone from Praslin, she said to me,
as if it was a matter of reproach to the duchess, that the
latter hed not shed one tear on the departure of her eldest
daughter for Italy, where she had gone with her husband.
I remarked that those who did not weep sometimes suffered
mom than those who really did so. During the last absence
of the slake and duchess at their sojourn at Preslin, we
exereked oar ordinary surveillance. lam certain that no
male/ester iatrodneed himself through the coach gate, and it
would be necessary that any such should escalade the walla
end lofty iron gates to get into the garden from the Champ
Elysesa. Since the departure for Praslin I never opened the
door of the ante-chamber between tho apartments of the
duke and duchess, leading to the wooden staircase descend-
ing to the garden. The key of that doer had been lost,
and we fastened it with some difficulty. We had placed the
bar of iron across it, which was intende# to fasten it up, and
that bar was yet in its place on the Tuesday when I went
with Mme. Merville to complete the arrangement of the
apartment. This was about two o'clock. My husband
came alone that night to the hotel, on the arrival of the
duchess ; that might be about half-past nine at night, the
duke arrived about ten o'clock. On the morrow morning,
about ilve o'clock, I was in bed with my husband, when
M. Le Claire struck strongly at the windows of our
spartemat. My husband instantly jumped out of bed and
weed the door. Madame entered in a great fright, and
"Quick, quick, get up. the duchess has twice pulled
her ball very rapidly, and with great violence. I have gone
