DEATH OF THE DUKE OF NORFOLK.

We have to record the sudden death of the Duke
of Norfolk. His grace bad been residing at his seat in
Sussex, and wu ut riding on Saturday ; on Ms return to
Arundel Castle he was seised with illness, at the same time
Melon the faculty of speech, which he never recovered. He
died at 3 iielack yesterday turning. The deceased Duke
of Norfolk, Henry Charles Howard, was eon of the 12th
duke, and bore in 1791. In 1814 be married the eldest
daughter of the Duke of Sutherland. He sat in the House
of C0M1113115 fir a time as mernter for Horsham,
and subsequently fir the western divi•iun of the
county of [WWI until June, 1841, when be was sum-
moned to the House of Lerida as Heron Maltravers, one of
the 'Ales of his father. His public life, to , belongs
less to polities than to the history of the court, with which
he was officially connected for nearly the whole of the last
twenty parr. The dignities of the house of Norfolk are
very ancient. The earldom of A rutted dates from the
twelfth and the earldom of Norfolk from the fifteenth ter.-
tory. Their tenant is Hereditary Earl Marshal, Premier
Doke and Esrl of England. The Howard' of Oreystoke,
the Earls of Suffolk and Coheir, the Howsrds of Ca rhy,
the Earl of Effingham, and Lord Howerd de Walden, ere
ri 'receive branches of this family. The late psi r le suer
netted by but son, Hoary Granville Fitz-Aran HowarJ,
Earl of Arundel and Surrey. His lady, now Duehess of
Norfolk, Is the yoencest daughter of Admiral Sir Edmund
Lyons.

PIEDMONT.

SPEECH OF GENERAL LA MARMORA.
At the banquet given a few days since to General
La Marmon by the senators and deputies of the
Sardinian chambers, the General replied as follows
to the toast in honour of the Sardinian army :
" Gentlemen,—l thank you in the name of the
brave army which I have the honour to command,
and which may call itself brave, although it has not
been given it to register numerous victories. The
bravery of the Piedmontese army contributed power.
fully to the success of the battle of t he Tchern aya—that
last desperate effort of the em my to save the great
fortress upon which Russia expended so much labour,
and for which it has made such prodigious sacrifices.
" Many a time, gentlemen, when our soldier' ran
to arms with the almost perfect certainty of meeting
the enemy hand to band, I have gone through the
ranks looking in the faces of those brave men, and I
can assure you that in their eyes and in the expres-
sion of their features, I read an ardent desire and im-
patience to be measured against the foe. Chagrin and
regret were only seen on their countenances when
they returned to pile their arms.

11 I cannot, gentlemen, resist citing to you
here the dying words of the brave General
Montevecchio. ' Tell the King,' said he, 'that
I was not unworthy to command a brigade.
Tell my regiment that I carried its uniform when
mortally wounded in fighting. Bring me to the
affectionate remembrance of my friends, by telling
them that since Almighty God has called me to
himself, I thank him for granting me a death which
crowns my life, and fulfils all tho military aspirations
of my long career.'

"1 am, certain, gentlemen, that if peace is made,
in spite of the pleasure whizh oar io:diers will hare
to see their country once more, and to embrace their
parents and their friends, they will regret abindoning
the scene of so many glorious contests without hating
reaped more laurels."

EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

(FROM OCR OWN CORKEbPONDENT.)

PARIS, dMo'n•r ETENINO.

Count Buol was presented to the Emperor at the
Tuileries at one o'clock to-day, with the same cere-
monies that were used yesterday at the presentation
of Lord Carendon. The Count was ushered into the
Emperor's presence by the Duke de Carobaceri:s,
Grand Master of the Ceremonies, and was presented
to his Majesty by M. de Hubner, thu Auutrian Minis-
ter. Immediately afterwards Count de Cavour was
presented by the Marquis de Per Villomarina, the
Sardinian Ambassador.

It is to be remarked that Baron Brunow has not
yet been presented. The InWpiridance of yesterday
said that he was to have teen presented to-day. But
I can assure you that the presentation has not yet
taken place. Count Orloff, we learn by a telegraphic
despatch, arrived at Brussels at ten o'clock last even-
ing. He was to be received by King Leopold to-
day, and it was thought that he would leave for
Paris this evening.
The 23rd is still the day on which the Conferences
are expected to open. In the evening of the opening
day there will be a grand concert at the Ministry for
Foreign Affairs. All the plenipotentiaries now in
Paris are invited to a soiree at Count Waleski'a this
evening.

The Pays suggests that it may perhaps not be
thought essential to require from ltussia such an ex•
treme measure as the destruction of Nicolaieff, aad
that it would suffice to interdict Russia from building in
the arsenal of Nicolaitff, any ship, frigate, or vessel
of war of any kind. The Pays also hints that the
payment to Turkey of the expenses of the war may
be compounded for by a "rectification" of the
Asiatic frontier.

There are certain Russian ladies now in Paris,
with regard to whose movements the telegraph has
been silent, bat who, it is right you should know,
are as actively preparing for the coming diplomatic
campaign as any of the recognised plenipotentiaries
whose arrival on the scene of action the
press has been so careful to chronicle. In-
deed, I believe I may say that at the present
moment the intrigues of these ladies occupy no
inconsiderable share of the attention of the French
government. First on the list comes the notorious
Princess Lieven. Next in importanoe is the Baroness
de Seebecb, a daughter of Count Nesaelrode. This
lady has for a political correspondent at St. Peters-
burg Madame Zografos (whose maiden designation
was Princess Sou,z3), the wife of the Greek ambas-
sador. The Princess and Baroness have under their
immediate orders the following highly efficient and
very experienced staff of feminine intriguers, viz.
Madame Kalergi, a niece of Neaselrode ; Madame
Maraeli, a Russian lady, of Greek origin, rei-
ssuing large property at Odessa; Madame
Meyendorf, the wife of the Russian envoy at
Berlin ; the Princess Ypsilante, a Greek fanariot,
under Russian protection, and two ladles of
the Obreskof family—one of whom is married to a
French Count, and the other of whom is the wife of
Prince Jean Soutzo, a Greek attechi: at St. Peters-
burg. However high-sounding the above names may
appear, I can assure you that some of them have long
been on the police list of Russian spies in Paris. The
present business of these ladies is to compare notes of
all the information they can pick in the many politi-
cal salons to which they have aoce,s, and to cadets,
vonr to ascertain how far the Emperor Napoleon
really means to stand fast by the conditions which it
is presumed England will insist upon, and what ob-
jections Brunow and Orloff may veuture to make in
the Conferences, without the risk of breaking off the
negotiations, sa far at least as France is concerned.

The Champs ElyELe were very crowded yester-
day, it being expected that the plenipotentiaries
would be seen. Lord Clarendon, Count Buol, sad, I
have no doubt, Boma others made their appearance
on the promenade.

I hear that the aecouchement of the Empress is
now looked for very early in March.
The speculators for the rise in the ltente were
somewhat shaken in their confidence to•day by an
article in a London daily journal of Friday, which
although talked of on Saturday, was not generally
known to the public till it appeared translated in the
French papers of yesterday (Sunday) morning.
Misgiving. as to the result of the Conferences were
to-day expressed by many persons who have hitherto
been among the most sanguine. The Rate fell 10e.
Ifor cash, and 23:. for account, cicsiog at
73fr. 20c. and 73ft. 70e. Almost ell other secu-
rities were, however, very buoyant. Credit Mobilier
rose 10fr., and Credit Foecier 12tr. 3')e. A large busi-
ness was done in French railways. The "carry-
ings over" for Saturday having been rendered so un-
expectedly easy by the aid of the Credit Mobilier,
people were encouraged to buy. Northern rose
221 r. 50e.; Orleaus,lslr. ; Eastern, 20fr. ; Southern,
20fr. ; Weyer°, 25fr.; Gnat d Central, It/fr.; St.
Kimbell and Grenoble, 12tr. 50e. Many of the lines
in favour to-day have long been neglected. The
event of the Bourse was the great improvement in
the Sardinian railways, which rose 40tr.
Almost all the returns trom the tutu markets re-
ceived yesterday report au adosuce in prices. The
rise is generally ehe•ut Hr. the hectolitre, and there
are very few instances of any fall.

fendant.

The plaintiff was a shipowner sad ship-builder at Rains -

Oa the 22ad of September, 1854, the parties masted into a
Muter party, in which it wee stated that the Esizabeth

on the Ist April, but the defendant did not provide a cargo,
and the muter, in couequenee, want to Wiles and got a
cargo of coals for London, and the plaintiff claimed about
