TRAVELS TO THE SEAT OF WAR IN THE
EAsT.—Tlic perpetual change of scene opened to the view
of the reader in Captain ALTIANDXIOI volumes, and the
freshness and rapidity of the sketches, impart that charm
to the wok which all the critical journals love united in
proclaiming. When once the testier enters on the present
t►aveller's narrative, there is no escaping from the spell by
which his mind is hurried on through the Netherlands,
Part of Germany, up the Baltic, Finland, Russia, the
Crimea, and Turkey, every individual place being stamped
on his memory by details arising from ant! remark and
youthful vivacity of expression. The description of the
;Russian campaign in Turkey is of the utmost interest.

'lt is a curious fact, that the Ramona steam-
packet, which brought the news of the appointment of
Colonel VAX HaLts as Military Governor of limed.,
was named after the virtuous and intrepid female by whose
assisaance Colonel VAN lIALEN escaped from the prison of
the, Inquiiition at Madrid.
PAYMASTER-GENERA r. OF lIIELANDe
To our great surprise we hear that the Earl O'Netta, is
no longer at the head of the Post-office. The circum-
vent:re which have led to his Lordship's retirement have
not transpired, though report ascribes them to a personal
difference between the Noble Premier and his Lordship,—
The residuary interest in the Post-office patent, we hear,
devolves on the Earl of Rosse; indeed, it could not be
iterwite ; for, even Willi:line& which we do not think pos-
sible, this Duke of Wat,taNcrrom would scarcely commit
suell an act of injustiec as to deprive of an appointment a
Nobleman who, for many years past, has contributed his
gratuitous services as joint Paymaster-General, without
any reward but the mere patronage of the department;
'and the more so, as this last surviving branch of official
Aistinetion in Ireland is to he soon extinguished under that
system of retrenchment recommended by the Parliamen-
tary Commissioners, and which the Government of Great
Britain have determined to adopt as soon as the assem-
bling of Parliament can permit. We also hear that, even
during the short interval that is to take place before the
tetel abolition of the office, the little patronage which is
left does not continua with the Noble Eal.—Morninp
Register.

We regret to hear that u serious disturbance
leek place at Stamford op Wednesday last (the day before
yesterday). The Marquis of Exrrett having entered the
'High-street on horseback, solely accompanied by his groom,
a mob of between 200 and 800 persons, a great part of
whom were boys, teaselled his Lordship with cries of " True
:,Blues for ever !" " True Blues for ever !" At length the
mob so increased in numbers, and their violence became so
'great, that his Lordship 'wee obliged to seek refuge in a
;hotel. The alarm became general, and a number of special
constables were immediately sworn in, under the direction
`of Mr. Acocv. The populace showed every indication ot
the most violent intentions. Scitortzt.n, one of the Marl-
borough-street officers, happened to be stopping for a few
moments at an inn in High-street, on his way to Horn-
'castle, on privete business, and, seeing the Imminent den.
gee in which the Marquis of EXECKII. Was personally placed,
he, in company with Mr. ACOCK, and other special con•
stables Of the district, escorted his Lordship a considerable
distance out of town, until, from the speed of his Lerdehip's
horse, no danger from the violence of the mob could be ex-
pected. A very turbulent spirit prevaila in the town. Two
nee/ newspapers are about to start, one to be called the
" Bee," the other the ." Wasp," from whence it may be
safely concluded that they are of diametrically opposite
political principles. The above facts we have learned from
a gentleman who left StaMford yesterday morning.
ESCAPEOF A CONVICTIIIOrit
A strong sensation was excited on Thursday in the above
gaol, by the discovery that one of the convicts, named
I)ellWrfit under sentence of transportation, had effected
his escape, under circumstances at present the most mys-
terious. It; is yanal for the prisoners at this gaol to as-
aeruhle in the Chapel every morning. Yesterday, as usual,
they wetimustered, and the' convict was then with them.
Shortly after the return of the prisoners to their wards,
one of the werdsmen called a turnkey, and informed hint
that Putwes was missing. At this time vieiters were
about to be admitted, and an Immediate search was com-
menced, and continued throughout the vireo, but with-
out effect. It is clear that the convict must have effected
his escape before this, as every one of the gaolers was in-
stantly apprised of what bad occurred, and the utmost
minuteness was observed with every one that left the gaol.
Two of the must active turnkeys were at the door at the
time, and: the person of Putti,tes being- well known to
them, he could not have passed through the felon's door.
'The only idea that can be funned as to how he escaped is,
that on the return of the prisoners from' chapel, he bad
shmk back, and concealed himself for the instant, When an
opportunity must have been afforded him to escape. To
effect this he must have been mote than ordinarily daring,
AS lie had to pass through two long peselgee, a shorter
one, in which some of the turnkeys are always placed,
by the bread-room, in which one or other of the
gaolers is in constant attendance, and along another pas-
Niger before ..he could reach the lobby, in which two of the
turnkeys are plaeed.. Plittlays is an old offender, though
yonng in years, and was tried and convicted at the \Vett-
inlmter Session%) where he received sentence of transporta-
tion, end was removed to the above gaol preparatory to his
lasing" Stilt on boatd the hulk*.
