RUSSIA.

On the subject of the late disturbances in the
Universities of st. Petersburg and Moscow the
Moniteur snakes the following remarks :
The public journals seem to attach too much importance
to the movements which have been made by the youths in
those two universities. Everywhere, from time to time,
establishoseuta of this nature have been the theatres of
troubles, for the repression of which the legal authorities
have been compelled reluctantly to interfere. A
large body of students necessarily contain in
their reeks a certain number of hot-headed youths
who are enemies to all discipline, who never
reesou, and are always ready to transgress the limits
of established rules. The ardour of youth is considered as
a sufficient excuse for such licentious conduct, and it is
only at the last extremity, when ascents have was too
far, that the superiors have found themselves obliged to
resort to coercive measures. Therefore we may confidently
affirm that, however determined may have been the resist-
ance of the youths of the universities above mentioned to
the injunctions of the local police, their conduct was wholly
free from political feeling; the disturhanoes which took place
were foolish rather than seditious, and there can be no
`seater mi■take than to attach to them the smallest political

co:;zirmitcy AOAINST THE KING OF

GREECE.

We understand that a few days since the Ring
of Greece, who has just returned from Bavaria to
his kingdom, was to have entered Athens from
the Pirieus, with a large escort, amidst • general
demonstration, with displays of fireworks. His
Majesty, however, after disembarking at the
Pineus, received a telegraphic message, in conse-
quence of which, instead of waiting to make his
entry iu the evening with the display announced in
the official programme,he started off at once,acoom-
, panted only by a very small escort, and reached
Athens a good hour before nightfall. The fire-
works were lost, the demonstration ruined, and the
King aad Queen entered the capital almost without
recognition. It is now ascertained that the tele-
gram which his Majesty received warned him of
the discovery of a conspiracy on the part of three
officers, who had won over a portion of his escort
to their plans. These wretches intended, in the
confusion of the evening, when people should be
shouting and fireworks going off, to fall upon the
royal personages under their charge, and then and
there to massacre them.—Pest.

The Kiug and Queen of Prussia, in their journey
in Silesia, are accompanied by the Prince Royal and Prince
Charles. The Princess Royal. by the advice of her physi.
bans, has givea up the ides of forming one of the party.
The Giorriafr di Roma mentions the discovery in
the garden of • bowie in the Rue de Is Cateus, de Necklets,
ofof a liessenshevo„ representing a young man warm a
vest and kind sandal, and having the head crowned
with seven rays. His right band leans on a rani, on which
is engraved a rants, entwined by a serpent, and his left
holds a key. A Caduceus is seen close to him. The
mysterious emblems of this idol lead to the idea that it
repreeeete the Sun under the figure of Meroury. Different
fragments of °remnants and a small pillar in marble have
been also foetid in the same spot.
The Court of Assizes of the Dromo bas just tried
a young man named Julien for attempting to murder his
father, a farmer residing at St. Donat. In the night of
the 15th June last, M. Julien was awakened Ly bearing a
noise in his court-yard, and went out to ascertain the
cause. He had scarcely creased the threshold, when be
are a man about eight or ten paces distant, who fired
a pistol at hint and hit him in the face. The ban
broke his upper jaw and then glanced along the
cheek-bone. As soon as he had a little recovered
from the shock be went to a neighbours house, where me-
dical aid WY at once procured, and, though his life was for
some time considered in danger, Le ultimately recovered.
Suspicion immediately fell upon his son (the prisoner), a
young mau of 22, who had recently quarrelled with his father
on the subject of a marriage which he (the son) war anxious
to contract. Young Julien was in consequence arrested,
and 11000 confessed his crime. The jury found the winner
guilty, with extenuating circumstances, and tiondemeed
klin to lard lale!ur for life. _
