A communication from Peeth, in the Oaf Deutsche
Punt, says that Oount Forgach ha addressed a cir-
cular to the chiefs; of the Comitats, of which the
following in the tenor :
Having bees informed that in some countries of the king-
dom individuals have been brought to justice or imprisoned
for not having paid the local taxes, arbitratily coUected by
the Comitats, I request you to have the kindness, to eon-
mine with the greatest attention the list of the prisoners
who have been condemned in your Comitat, or who are now
the subject of judicial inquiries, and in the event of such
individuals being in the prisons of your Comitet, I beg you
to sand me the documents connected wit► the proceedings
against them.

The American steamer Canada, it seems, appre-
headedas attack like that made on the Treat. oa her home-
ward voyage. The Cork Examiner says :—" Considerable
nassaisess was felt on beard the Canada, which arrived
here on Saturday night, lest they might be overhauled by
an American war ship aad hare to undergo a repetition of
the affsir of the Trent. Two days before they started from
Boston a rumour was afloat that Mr. Brscheuridge, the
Southern sen►tor expelled from Congress, was to premed to
Europe upon a special mission, such as that of Means.
Mason and Slidell. As it was believed, though untruly,
that be would leave in the Canada, sad as it was said •
Federal steamer had, therefore, been despatched in pursuit,
there was • pretty strong expectation that somewhere in
the Irish Channel the mail host would be stopped. This
eircuinstaace created a disposal.° among some of the Fag-
liah passengers to avail themselves of the severity afforded
by getting out at Queenstown. One certainly acted upon
the apprehension."

A letter front Rome of the 17th nays :—"The
Homan medical moo are interested iii the descriptions of
Prince Albert's fatal roulade, because that form of gastric
fever, originating in sold, is one of the commonest diseases
here, and is generally detected at its outset and combated
enremsfully, the favourable crisis usually taking place at
the seventh; fourteenth, or twenty-first day."
A petition, and virtually a complaint, from the
students of the University of Kt. Petersburg, as a body,
has been given in at the Winter Palace. Three students
bed volunteered to be the bearers of the document in qua.-
tine to St. Petersburg. One went by the lint chi" OS9
by the second, and me by the thirst. All were more or less
disguised, and each, on arriving at the end of the journey,
went to a different hotel. Thanks to these precautions,
they were enabled to meet the neat morning in frost of
the Winter Palace without the police, either of Moscow or
Si, Petersburg, knowing anything about their movements.
They asked for the sidede-camp on duty, sod, after a little
parleying, were referred to Prince I)olgorouki, the chief of
the gendarmes, and proceeded to bin official residence.
The princequestioned theni as to the object of their visit,
which was simple and intelligible enough, and ultimately
the petition was forwarded to the Emperor. The answer
transmitted to the three deputies was to the following
effect, and almost in the following words: —" Your repre-
settatione are false, and your conduct illegal, but you are
forgiven is consideration of your youth."
