One evening last week, as a Gentleman was passing
through Holborn, between seven and eight o'clock, a

same manner, and supposed by the saute fellow It is
dangerous after nightfall to expose their waich•chains its

MURDER AND HIGHWAY ROPRERY.-The neigh-

which lay in a stiel: at an undertaker's, and presented a

great length its explanation of the dreadful affair, but
nothing to throw light on the subject transpired; and
the Court, id the absence of other witnesses, adjmuned
to a Mime day, when, a is hoped, some material evi-
dence will be adduced, and lead to the discovery of the
murderers. TM: Police of the district are very active
on the OCCJSDM ; and it is most singular, that 11<u the
slightest alarm appears to have beets heard when the
murder was perpetrated, from which it must be con-
cluded that the deceased was stunned by the very fins

LONDON. MONDAY, APRIL 1.

Three o'clock, p.m.
The Paris Papers of Thursday last huvc arrived:
They furnish us with scanty intelligence from the
interior of France, nor do they cast any additional
light on the Rocl:clle plot, though it is suspected
that it has rand:rations. The French Funds have
buPc nly fallen near two per cent. and various rea-
sons arc aKigned for their depression. It is probable
that the late conspiracies have, in same degree,
thaken public confidence, as very numeroas and ex-
tensive sales have been made by English holders of
French Steck. On Thursday one house alone sold
near half a million of reales in consequence of crdcrs
from this country. The Paris Journals do not ven-
ture to account for the alarn► which evidently exists,
but private individuals are probably in possession of
intelligence that warrants their su picions. Ever
since the Ultra iloydist Ministers came into power,
the Buonapartists have been at work, and the Libe-
rals are anxious fur a change in administration. It
is believed, in the best informed political circles, that
it is the state of France alone that has occasioned
the depression of the Funds, and net any apptehen.
sion of it rupture between Russia and the Porte.
The negociations at Vienna, between the Cabi-
nets of Austria, England, and St. Petersburg'', are
drawing to a close, and it is believed the issue will
be peace.

Letters from Trieste, of the 15th Wt. mention,
that an engagement has taken place between
_the
- Greeks and Turkish fleets, in which the former had
the advantage, and succeeded in capturing 25 trans•
ports? ' The Greeks, it is mi.!, had 75 sail, and the
Turks GO—the latter had no ships of tvar of the first
class. The information was brought to Trieste IT
the commander of a Greek vessel, - who was an eye-
v:itnessof the engagement, which, occurred all
trass on the 3d of last month. When the result is
known at Constantinople, it is very likely that it
will occasion a commotion.
