AFFAIR IN HIGH LIFE.—An event, neither
very novel nor very unprecedented in a certain class of so-
ciety, but mo't extraordinary and most unlooked for,
when we consider the present public and private condition
of the parties, has formed the chief subject of conversation
the List two days, among the fashionable circles at the
West End of the town. That which had been hinted at,
or vaguely insinuated for a day or two, assumed a shape
tangible enough for relation,, and it was pretty broadly
stated that an Illustrious Personage, whose attentions for
some time excited suspicion, had been detected in a most
unequivocal situation in the dressing-room of the lady of
a Nobleman holding a situation in the Royal Household.
The lady alluded to is the sister of a distinguished Peer,
and the mother of eight or nine children. We give the
story as we received it, without attempting further to de-
signate the individuals alluded to. We may, however,
add, that the wife of the principal offender is excited to
an unusual degree of violence ; and that one of his rela-
tives, iu whom the nation is much intereste4, has becii
more agitated by the discovery of this criminal indulgence
than might have been expected.—Morning PePer•

LONDON.
MONDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 1, 1830.

St. Petersburgh Journals to the 6th January
have been received. They announce the impor-
tant fact, that the EMPEROR has issued a mani-
festo for reducing the interest on money one per
cent. This corroborates the opinion we stated
some time ago, that there is an understanding
between the great Powers of Europe for reducing
the rate of interest :

ET. rETERSBURCII, JAN. I,

An Imperial manifesto, published this morning, an-
nounces the important measure of a reduction of the in-
terests of sums borrowed from the b inks of the empire, or
placed in those establishments. The interest on both is
reduced one per cent. so that the debtors of these banks
will pay to them henceforth only five par cent. instead of
six, and the bank will have to pay only four per cent.
instead of five on the stuns deposited in them. Of course
the proprietors of the latter will be at full liberty to with-
draw them whenever they please. The repayment of these
sums will not experience any delay whatever.
The Journal of St. Peteraburgh of the 2d of Jan.
gives two columns of observations on this measure, and
that of the 4th, the imperial manifesto, and the first
three chapters of the regulations in twenty-nine sections,
which fill four columns of the Journal, the sequel to be
given in the following numbers.

TIFLIS, DEC. 17.

Professor Parrott, and fellow travellers, have arrived
here from Mount Ararat, and set out on the 15th for line-
retia and the coasts of the Black Sea, to continue their
researches. They will then return to Tiflis, and travel
through the Mussulman provinces to the coast of the Cas-
pian Sea.

The following are extracts from the Hamburg
Reporter of the 26th of January. It appears
that the Elector of Hesie is determined to put
down the practice of duelling if possible. The
war estate of the Duchy of Brunswick is only
4,105 men, and yet the Duke would quarrel with
Hanover !

HAMBURG, JAN. 26.

The Elector of Hesse has published a severe ordonnaace
against duelling. No officer in his army is to he allowed
to send or accept a challenge, but when insulted must
submit his complaint to a military tribunal of honour.
Whoever sends a challenge is liable to imprisonment in a
fortress for not less than three, nor mere than six years ;
and whoever accepts a challenge is to be liable to imprison-
ment fer not more than three nor less than one yt ar. If a
duel is really fought, and one of the parties killed, the sur-
vivor is to be punished as guilty of murder ; if neither is
killed, both are to be expelled the service, to be deprived of
their letters of nobility, and to be imprisoned in .i fortress
for not less than ten years. A variety of other
regulations follow, of the severity of which an opinion
may be formed from the preceding. The great fault
of all laws hitherto vsed against duelling is the
too great degree of punishment annexed to their vio-
lation. The consequence is an excitement of universal
sympathy in favour of the offending party, which frequently
acts as an inducement even with the Judges called upon to
put the laws in force, to connive at every expedient that
may favour the escape of the delinquent. A severe law
will never have the effect of suppressing duelling, because a
severer punishment, contempt, is inflicted on those who
violate the laws of society.
Ti!. C. Niedmann, the Editor of the Mitternaclits Blatt,
published in Brunswick, was arrested a few days ago at
the Theatre in that city, in consequence of a sentence pro-
nounced against him by the tribunal of Wolfenbuttle.
Acording to the laws of the land, M. Niedmann was en-
titled to an appeal before the sentence could be executed ;
his arrest therefore has excited a very strong sensation.
It was also thought surprising that he should not have
been permitted to give bail till three days after his arrest.
