SWITZERLAND.

The Bale Gazette says:—
" The Bund announces that a refugee in Switzerland
had sought to revolutionise Alsace by orders of Mazzini,
and it is pretended that letters of a compromising cha-
racter had been found among his papers. We will ob-
serve that the person in question is not a refugee, and
that he did not reside in Switzerland. He resided in
the Duchy of Baden, near Bale. He was employed in a
commercial house at Bale, and no ono was aware that he
was at all connected with politics. His papers were
seiz9d at Bale, and at his residence. He was arrested,
expelled, and has since gone to America. One single
refugee was compromised with him, and he also has been
expelledcby the Federal Council."
By a law of the canton of Ticino all the pupils of
the seminaries and public schools of the State are
drilled and instructed in the military exercise. The
authorities of the canton having lately attempted to
enforce this law at the seminary of Polleggio, which
belongs to the diocese of Milan, the rector of the semi •
nary, Don Cesare Bertoglio, refused to comply, upon
which he was put under arrest. This called forth a
severe remonstrance on the part of the Archbishop of
Milan, who ordered the seminary to be closed,
and sent a deputation to the President and Council of
the canton to demand the release of the rector. The
Gazetta Ticinese of the Bth now publishes a letter
from the Archbishop, from which we learn that Don
Cesare Bertoglio has been released, in compliance
with the request of the deputation, but that the
Council has refused to yield on the point of teaching
the manual exercise in the seminary of Polleggio, in
consequence of which the Archbishop still continues
to keep the seminary closed.

EXTRAORDINARY MURDER.
On Wednesday, the sth of November last, a man
named John Anderson, foreman to Me. Hut-
chinson, proprietor of the chemical works at
Widness, was murdered on the way from the
works to his own house in Dob-lane. Imme-
diately afterwards an application was made at
the Liverpool police-office for an officer to institute
ingyaries, with a view to the discovery of the
mr.rderer. With this object John Connolly, police..
vinstable No. 460, was sent over to the works, and
'with the view of eliciting information he disguised
himself as a workman, and made application for em-
ployment. He remained there as a labourer for six
weeks, during which time he gained such information
as led to the discovery of a person supposed to be
guilty, and others implicated in the murder.
A communication was then made to Mr. Allen,
the bead constable of the district, and through his
exertions three men were captured. Their names are
John Shay, Thomas Nolan, and Darby Nolan, his
father. The prisoners were brought before the ma-
gistrates at Prescot, and committed for trial at the
next assizes. The Liverpool police-officer was known
by the disguised name of "Jack Callaghan," and the COWES.—We hear that the celebrated builder, Mr.
friends of the accused were rather surprised wh€2 Joseph White, has received an order from the Emperor of
Russia to build him another yacht of large dimensions. This
they saw him in court, and giving evidence nearly fill up his building yard, as.there are no lea than
