WORKMEN'S SOCIETIES IN HANOVER.—The French
Government lately invited the presidents of the peo-
ple's banks and workmen's societies of Hanover to repair to
Paris for the purpose of being consulted by the French
Government. Those presidents, who are working men,
accepted the invitation, and left for Paris, accompanied by
Professor Ruhlman, honorary member of the societies.
French hospitality commenced on their arrival at Stras-
burg, where all their expenses were paid to Paris. The
attention of the King of Hanover having been directed to
these operative societies formed in his country, his Majes-
ty, the evening before their departure, invited a deputa-
tion to the palace, where he had the organisation of these
societies explained to him, and listened to the details with
much interest.

tried two Arabs named Bel Gacem and Tahar-ben-
el-Houas, on a charge of having, on Feb. 8, 1863, murdered
a Frenchman named Nielli, a common carter, by
shooting
him as he passed along the road. As no robbery was corn_
mitted, there was every reason to regard this crime as an
act of vengeance, -
and an investigation which was instituted
left
no doubt of the fact. In February, 1862, a Frenchman
had been assassinated by an Arab named Mohamed, the
son of Said Chyli, who was executed Tor the
crime ; but before his death ho sent a letter to his
father, in which he suggested that his death ought to be
avenged on the French. This letter was read to many
members of the tribe, among
whom were the prisoner%
and there can be little doubt that their sole object of
com-
mitting the crime was to take vengeance for their kins-
man's death on any Frenchman they could find, as the
murdered man was a total stranger to them. The fact

the murder having been clearly proved against the pri_
soners, they were found guilty, and condemned to death.
The execution is to take place at Constantine.

A murder has just taken place at Annonay. Two
cousins named Roche and Rouchen had met at a
funeral, and during the repast which followed Roche, when
under the influence of liquor, made some offensive obser-
vations to the other. Nothing further occurred at the
moment, but while on their way home, in company with a.
third person, Rouchen drew a knife and stabbed Roche to
the heart. The murderer shortly after was arrested and
confessed his crime.—Galignani.
The Gazette du Midi mentions that a murder at-
