a grand dinner to the Prince Royal of Denmark and
his Princess. Several members of the Diplomatique
Corps were present.
Pierre Jean Moithe, formerly a Lieutenant in the
9th regiment of cuirassiers, and lately a horse-guard
in the Crown Forests, stationed in the wood de
Boulogne, was yesterday tried before the tribunal
de police correctionelle, on the charge of endeavour-
ing, by a fraudulent contrivance, to impress the
police with a belief that an execrable attempt had
been made to assassinate the young Duke of Bour-
deauxsin the wood of Boulogne. The defendant was
liable, by the penal code, to suffer for the offence
one year's imprisonment, and pay a fine of from 100
to 500 francs:llle facts of this plan have been detailed.
The defmdant, on the llth of October, was taking
his round in the wood of Boulogne, in the avenue
of Longchatnps, When he met titur Gendarmes. He
esked the news, and they told him the Duke of
Botirdeaux was expected. Moithe went away, and
returned to few minutes afterwards in apparent
terror, holding in his hand a gun, with two balls,
nearly new. He made signs to the Gendarmes to
gourd that part of the wood from which he came,
:old made a detailed report of a horrid plot, of which
lie himself had nearly been the victim. A person
behind a bush fired suddenly a pistol close to his
horse's ear. The person then ran off, leaving his
gun and round hat, turned up in the English fashion.
He did not find the pistol,but pretended to have seen
behind the hedge an enclosure or ambuscade, where
the assassin had concealed himself.
hi the course of the investigation, it appeared that
the very hat had been purchased of one Cardin, a
dealer in old clothes, by Moithe himself
The tribunal, after the guilt of the prisoner had
teen clearly established, sentencid him to " two
years imprisonment, and to pay a line of 500 francs."

A letter from M. Bailly, from Barcelona, dated
the 15th of November, contains the most satisfactory
details respecting the health of that estimable phy-
sician, and states, that the contagion continues to
diminish at Barcelona, where the innuber of dead
are reduced to fifty per day. A young phy,ician
from Perpignan, named Jouarry, who came to Bar-

up to the moment of his illness a zeal and devotion
above all praise, M. Bailly states in his letter, that
he has saved and restored to his country this young
and interesting citizen.
