FIVE MONTHS roe. SEDUCTION —On Saturday, in the
Insolvent Debtors' Court, Richard Sennett, who is in the
employ of his brother, a fur manufacturer, in Southwark,
was opposed by William Weaver, on the ground that he
had not paid the damages and costs which had been

awarded upon an action brought af.,,,inst him for seducing
a girl named Elizabeth Pymer. The damages and costs
exceeded £lOO. Since the trial £2O had been offered, rnd
4i. a week for two years, which offer was refused. Mr.
Commissioner Phillips said his decision must be regulated
by the amount of damages, and the judgment he should
give would be for five months from the vesting order on
January 31st.

The Paris correspondent of the Times quotes a letter from
Stockholm, which states that the Russians were sending
troops in considerable quantities to Finland ; concentrating
a large force round St. Pet( rsburg ; strengthening the
harriers near Crrnstadt, so as completely to close up the
entrance. The question is asked—how is it that the Czar,
if so desirous olpeace. continues to snead millions in these
warlike preparations ? The Russians are prohibiting the
exportation of fresh and salt meat from Finland to Sweden.
They are very severe in stopping the export of corn and
grain. The Swedish population on the opposite shore have,
from time immemorial. been its the habit of drawing their
supplies of food from Finland.

as to the applications not completed under the act. From
this paper, we find that four companies, previously in
existence, have obtained certificates of corcpb to registration
with limited liability, the most important of which is
Price's Patent Candle Company. Two other companies,
whose formation was In.gun, but not completed, before the
passing of the act, also obtained certificates. Six new

The Morning Advertiser not only gives publicity to a
variety of unauthenticated tumours respecting the Paris
Conferences but adopts them, and in a leading article quotes
the following, which must be taken with much reserve ;
they are chiefly of interest, ES specimens of the rumours
which on Friday seriously affect( d the funds :—A very grave
hitch in the conferences has already occurred. Though the
fifth point is the last of all, it had been agreed to take it
first. It was, accordingly, on the second meeting of the
conference, submitted for the consideration of the plenipo •
tentiaris s. No sooner had it been formally laid on the
table tha❑ Count Orloff and Baron Brunow took obit ctions
to it being taken into consideration with a view to its being
decided by the conference. They proposed that it should
be referred to a congress of the representatives of all the
crowned heads in Europe; if so referred they pledged them-
selves in the name of the Czar to abide by whatever Cecision
that congress might come to. This new and unexpected
phase in the Erstern question produced great consterna-
tion in Paris, and caused a further fall on the French funds.
It also no less surarised and alarmed our own Govern-
ment. We were informed on Friday, that Lord Cowley was
expected to arrive in London on SAutday, to take the in-
structions of his government on the subject. It is deemed
not improbable, that this new move of the artful diplomatists
of Russia may be the immediate breaking up of the Con-
ferences.
