The Gazette du &oaf of St. Petersburg publishes
ths convention concluded at Berlin, and ratified by the Czar.
relative to the union of the railway between Berlin and
Ecenigsherg with that which is being constructed between
Bt. Petersburg and Warsaw.
We learn from the St. Petersburg journals that
As necessary arrangements have just been effected for taking
Whew cenans of the whole of the Russian empire.
STORM AT IRE Care.—At Table Bay six veeaels
went on shore on Sunday, the 7th of June ; one with • ge-
nera cargo struck at her anchors, and had six feet of water
la her at sunset. The amount of property on the beach was
20,0001. No hoes were lost. Eleven of the Cape boats were
lost, and 6001. was refused to take off an anchor. The Barra-
couta's boat nearly foundered in making the attempt.
Tax JEWS IN PRI:tibIA.—A letter from Berlin,
in the Costatitutionsol, says A recent ordinance of the
Minister of Justice, which is equivalent, as regards the Jews,
to an interdiction against their adopting the low as a profes-
sion, has produced a considerable sensation. It may be re-
membered that the minister some time since warned younre
men that the students of law were increasing too rapidly, and
advised them to fellow some other career. This increase io
more particularly injurious to the Jews, as the only judicial
function they can fill is that of advocate. As there am at
present a great number waiting for a veraney to occur in that
body, the minister has given nutlet) that from Easter, 18.511,
the Jews will no longer be admitted to pass examinations.
This measure falls very hardly on those who have been
studying for one or two years, and whom labours ere there-
fore lost, es three years studies were required Ware an exa-
mination could be passed."
HESSE-CABSELL.—The rulers of this State art-
now' eight years after the event, commencing the preemie
tion of a large number of persons, said to have been partici-
=in the insurrection which took place in the Grand
of Baden in the year 1849.
PROMOTION BY NIERIT,AND:%IILITARY EDUCATION
ix Ressaa.—A St. Petersburg letter says The nomi-
nation to certain places has hitherto depended on the rank
which persons occupy by seniority, and this his fre-
quently prevented the best men from being chosen for certain
'unctions. The Emperor Nicholas c intemplated making a
reform in the system, but various circumstances preventoi
him. I now learn from a good source that the Grand Duke
Constantine, in virtue of the powers confided to him by the Emperor, his ordered an ordinance to be prepared to prevent
in the fleet the inconveniences of the prevailing spume, and
it is hoped that this salutary reform will bo extended to all
branches of the service. Another reform is also contem-
plated :—lt is proposed to take measures to raise the charac-
ter and ernelienite the position of the inferior effacers in the
army, to make them in fact something better than the mar
machines which they are at present. On the conclusion of
the recent manieutree of the detached corps of the guird,
General Plant ine know:inert the projected reform to the in-
ferior officers ; and he ordered that, as A commencement of
it, r -re shall henceforth treat their inferiors with greater

reggsa:Cral German papers affirm that the states in-
cluded in the Zollverein have, through the Prussian govern-
ment, presented to the British government a claim of com-
pensation fur the damage and losses occasioned to German
yby the bombardment of Canton. The Aurndl des
PiDelt reminds them that, in the cm* of the damages sus-
tained by English mercluats at Greytown, Lord Palmer.
stun very lately declared that no claim could be made against
the United States; and this cane seems to involve the saute
principle.
A BISHOP PREACHING IN THE OPEN Atn.—The
Bishop of Lincoln preached on the 23rd Met., from a tem-
porary pulpit erected in the churchyard of North Haney,
Lineulnahire, on the occasion of the era* of new &hoots
in that parish. The congregation was so bugs that the
church, which bas lately been restored, could not contain it.
RAILWAYS AND TIIE SMOKE OCEslTON.—Yester-
_

day, the Manchester, tied Lincoln*Lire Railway
Company were summoned before the magistrates, at Shef-
field, under the Railway Clauses Consolidation Act, fur
using an engine not so constructed as to con-
mune its own smoke.—Mr. Cubist, the inepector, elated
that the company had, as a matter of economy, need coals
instead of coke, for engines attached to both passengers and
=ts rains. The annoyance to the passengers was coati-
and in consequence of frequent complaints which
had reached the health committee et the Sheffield town
council, the town-clerk, by their instractions, wrote to the
company two months ego, calling their attention to the
nuisance. As this had led to no abytenient, the present
information was laid. Evidence wee then given that on the
13th of July the engine Brutus was employed fur en hour
shunting waggons at the Sheffield goods station, and during
that time emitted black eniokc for twenty-five minutes. Mr.
Guy, solicitor to the company, said that immediately on
receipt of the letter from the town-clerk, the directors gav,,
inatrucr ions for every practicable means to be adopted by their
servants to remedy the evil complained of. It was ime
ssible
however, for a locomotive to consume its own meek. white
standing. As the information did nut state the name of the
engine complained of, he had not had sufficient opportunity
of inquiring ea to the correctness of the charge, end there-
fore asked for on adjournment.— After some conveveation,
in the course of which it appeared that the magistrates could
not convict in a less penalty than SI. per day, the infor-
mation was withdrawn, on Mr. G
uyra payi g n the costs, and
undertaking that the companywold lake steps to abets the
nuisar.ze.
