The Mani!ear contains a decree, stating th-.t some
of the young soldiers called into active service in
pursuance of
-the law of 1818 for the recruiting of
the army, have voluntarily mutilated themselves to
avoid military service. It enacts, therctbre, that all
such persons so miscenducting themselves shall be
enmlled in one of the companies of pioneers. In
Naples the government are on the alert to resist any
foreign attempt that may be made against the inde-
pendence of the country. An army has been
already assembled, consisting of troops of the line
and militia to the amount of two hit:tared thousand
men. M. Coulana D'Ornano, a judge of the civil
tribunal of Ajaccis, in Corsica, was assassinated
when returning from Bastia, where he had been in•
quiring into a case of double assassination. He was
at the time escorted by four Bens d'armes, and ac •
compunied by two officers of his court. He was
struck by two balls, and died in half r.n hour. He
is the third magistrate that has been assassinated at
Ajaccio; his assassins are not taken. The Hanover
Gazelle has undertaken the defence of the late
Baron Ompteda. It has not, however, yet attempted
th defence cf Majocci, Sacchi, and their friends in
Cotton Garden.—According to letters from Paris,
the French Government have it in contemplation to
send an expedition to Madagascar, to found a colony
in that island. Two sons of one of the Madagascar
chiefs, who have been educated in France, are to
return with the expedition.

The extreme length cf the proceedings against
the Queen obliges us to omit almost every other
article—but the following extracts deelare so de-
cidedly the opinion entertained on the Continent
upon the subject, that we cannot resist the pleasure
of giving them :
[From the Government Gaze!te of Liilion.]
" After these two great events (the great niers-
lutions in Spain and Naples), another (it:err:A,
which certainly was not to be expected in civilized
times, if civilization went hand-in-hand with mora-
lity. We mean the trial actually commenced against
the Queen of England, accused of the crime of
adultery in the face of the nation, and of the world,
before the British Parliament, by her oven husband,
fur the purpose of (draining a divorce. The decency
which characterizes the Portuguese nation theoids
us to stain our pages and pollute the ears el our
readers with the scandalous charges accumelatcd
egaimt the Queen in this accusation. No English-
man of el:wooer has seen without shame and indig-
nation the disgrace which this trial ha:: east upon
British Government, the result of which, whatever
it may be, can produce no benefit to the nation, and
cannot fail to impress a brat.d of immortal 11,iinny
on the history of our times. We shall then:litre
continue to say little on this trial, mid shall wait
for its issue to deliver our sentiments, Be the last
at counts from Leaden, which reach to Augurt f.;oth,
we find that witnesses were under eNamination on
the part of the prweentor, and that their depositions
were taken in open Parliameot, to which the
Queen went daily. It is fully anticipated that her
Majesty will reline all the charge,:, and justify the
testimonies of love and regard which she has ret civet]
from the nation.
