Wanted in the Danish capital, we are to judge
a letter from Copenhagen, which we find giv'e-n-iyn
G. alignani. It gays, " Tne police of this city pub.
hales every year an account of the number of per•
sons found drunk in the streets. In the year 1851
the number of men taken up drunk was 691, and
of women 150, a total which gives an increase of 73
over 1850, and oc 92 over 1849."

ITALY.
The Roman Carnival commenced on Saturday, the
14th. No masks, the Corso lined with French troops,
and every square in the vicinity filled by a
battalion
of the redoubted Chasseurs de Vincennes, rendered it
but the ghost of the old Carnival. The principal
Roman families kept aloof.

A private letter from Naples, of the 14th instant,
states that the King of Naples, notwithstanding the
supplications of the members of his own family, as
well as of the Duke d'Aumale, has refused to enter
any formal protest against the decrees by which
the family of Orleans is despoiled of its property.
The excuse given is that Naples is on such bad
terms with England that she cannot run the
risk of quarrelling with France. The King has con-
iequently fully approved of the conduct of his repre-
sentative in Paris, who, since the publication of the
decrees, has declined any sort of communication er
conference with the testamentary executors of Louis
Philippe. It appears, however, that the new Neapo.
litan Ministry is endeavouring to make itself more
popular in the country, and at the same time more
agreeable to England. It has already set a great
er of political prisoners at liberty, and others
have been removed from the prisons of the capital to
those of the interior, with view o their bein
treated with less severity. a t g

Do INDIANS SWL&R P
—We have been favoured by
the Reverend R. M. Loughbridge, missionary to the Creek
Indians, with the followit,g answer to the question, "Do the
heathen swear ? ' The remark that the do not
swear in their language is, I believe, correct.heathen Certain I am
that the Creek Indians never attempt it. To call another
by some vulgar name, as "old dog," or something of the
klnd, is the nearest approximation they can make. On a

to God which any could offer.° The same is also tho CU,

THE BANBURY MURDER.
The only link in the chain of evidence which was ap-
parently
wanting to bring home the charge of the mur-
der of his uncle to the prisoner Kalabergo has just
been supplied. The pistol with which it is believed the
murder was committed has been found. Great search
had been ineffectually made. The canal had been emptied,
the river searched, the millers having let down the water
for the purpose, and the ground near the spot where
the murder was committed traversed over and over
again, but all in vain. On Monday last two young
men, sons of Mr. D. Newton, a constable of Neithrop,
determined to make another effort. In a ditch, about
400 yards from the spot, and. which had in it but little
water, they found what appeared to be a coat. They
dragged it out with some difficulty, as a portion of it
was fast in the mud at the bottom of the ditch.
This they took to a cottage and cleaned, and on
examining it found a pair of nearly new woollen gloves
in one of the pockets. They then borrowed dung-
forks and went back to the ditch. Sticking the
forks into the mud at a distance of about six yards from
where the coat was found, one of them felt that his
fork struck against something which appeared to be
metal; he then groped in the mud and found under the
mud, and pressed into the clay, a double-barrelled
pocket pistol. Before the Rev. W. Lloyd, one of the
county magistrates, on Tuesday last, the coat. and pistol
were produced. Mr. Watkins, who sold a pistol to the
prisocer about a month before the murder was com-
mitted, identified the pistol as the one he sold to him;
and Mr. Holland, with whom the prisoner wished to
exchange a pistol, identified it as the one the prisoner
wished him to take. Four witnesses identified the
great-coat as having belonged to the late Mr.
Kalabergo, some of them deposing, that when
the uncle and nephew left home the day before the
murder was committed, they had with them in the cart
a drab great-coat and a dark brown one. The deceased
priss opnreorbaibalyto worn
take had on a drab great-coat when his body was found, and

MONEY MARKET.—The quotation of gold at Pane
is about par (according to the new tariff), which,
at the English Mint price of 31. 17s. 10Id. per ounce for
standard gold, gives an exchange of 25.17; and the ex-
change at Paris on London at short being 25.30, it follows
that gold is about 0.51 per cent. dearer in London than
in Paris. By advises from flamburgh the price of gold
is 429 per mark, which, at the English Mint price of
31. 17s. 100. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange
of 13.7 ; and the exchange at Hamburgh on London at
short being 13.84, it follows that gold is 0.81 per cent.
dearer in London than in Ham burgh. The course of ex-
change at New York on London for bills at 60 days' eight is
llei per cent., and the par of exchange between En
and America being 109 23-40 per cent., it follows that the
exchange is nominally 0.67 per cent. in favour of England;
it with
and, after making allowance for difference of interest and
charges of transport, the present rate leaves a trifling profit
