NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

PORTSMOUTH, SUNDAY.—The Stromboli steam-sloop,
Commander Lord Amelius Beauclerk, arrived on Friday
evening from Gibraltar. Having been ordered to sail
home instead of steaming, her news has been forestalled
by the packets. The following officers have come home
passengers in her:—Captain Coape, of the 67th Regi-
ment, late Aide-de-Camp to his Excellency Sir R. 'Wil-
son, ex-Governor of Gibraltar; Captain Adair, Royal
Artillery; Mr. Sainsbury, midshipman, from the St.
Vincent, to join the Centaur steam-frigate on the coast
of Africa; Mr. Eden (nephew of the late Earl of Auck-
land), midshipman, from the St. Vincent, to join the
flag ship Victory, at Portsmouth; also invalid soldiers
from the 67th and 34th Regiments, and two convicts be-
longing to the former. She sailed yesterday for Sheer-
ness to be paid off. She has not been eighteen months
in commission, but is in most serviceable and warlike
order, fit for any duty a steamer is calculated to perform.
T. pay her off then, under such circumstances, is en-
tailing an expense upon the country, which ought to ori-
ginate some ether feeling than surprise in the economi-
cal camp. To refit this vessel will cost a large sum.
She is capable of serving three or four years longer be-
fore refit.

The Rifleman, steam-schooner, Lieutenant-Comman-
der Crofton, arrived to-day from Tangier direct. She
left on the 22d ult. Her news has therefore been fore-
stalled. She was ordered to sail home in pursuance of
the new economic regulations, and has made an excel-
lent passage of seventee❑ days. She is ordered to refit
forthwith for foreign service.

FOREIGN WOOLS.—" At the recent Wool
Sales, the whole of certain qualities of Foreign Wools, after
some competition, were nurchased for Messrs. Nicoll, the extensive
Woollen Drapers and Clothiers of Regent-street and Cornhill. They
are all marked for Gloucestershire, as in that county the mills are
situated wherein the raw material will be converted into the beau-
tiful fabric known as the Nicollian Cloth, a species of manufacture
introduced by the firm from whom it derives its name."—The Sun.
WOOLLEN BUYERS and CONSUMERS are reminded that
Messrs. NICOLL were the first, and continue to be the only, house
in the United Kingdom that ever offered to the buyer and consumer,
for cash payments, the saving of all the several profits of the in-
termediate grades that continue to exist li,tween the wool growers
and themselves. As will be shown by the abeve extract from one of the
public journals, the wool used in the manufacture of the Nicollian Cloth
does not leave Messrs. N.'s po•sessien until it Is produced in the piece
ready for sale, either by their Agents, or themselves at the Whole-
sale Warehouse, 120, REGENT-STREET, and afterwards when
made up into the fashionable and Patented garments known as the
NICOLL, the REGISTERED I'ALETOT, and NICOLL'S
MORNING COAT, all of which can be purchased singly of the
several recognised Agents, as also of the Patentees.

A NEW DISCOVERY.
NT R. HOWARD, Surgeon Dentist, 52, Fleet-
street, has introduced an ENTIRELY NEW DESCRIP-
TION of ArairmAL TEETH, fixed without springs, wires, or
ligatures. They so perfectly resemble the natural teeth as not to be
distinguished from the originals by the closest observer; they will
never change colmr or decay, and will be found very superior to any
teeth ever before used. This method does not require the extraction
of roots, or any painful operation, and will support and preserve
teeth that arc loose, and is guaranteed to restore articulation and
mastication.
Decayed teeth rendered sound and useful in mastication.

AWFUL DEATH. OF GENERAL STEWART'S DAUGH-
TER.—On Friday, Mr. G. C. Greenway, coroner, held
an inquest at the King's Arms, Kenilworth, near Lea-
mington, Warwickshire, on the body of Miss Ann
Stewart, aged 16, a daughter of General Stewart. It
appeared from the evidence of John Pugh, coachman to
the General, that on Thursday afternoon, about three
o'clock, he heard one of his master's horses making a
strange noise in the stable, and on going to the spot he
found Miss Stewart under the horse. The animal was
standing close by the side of the stall, and the deceased
was doubled up under it. The blood was issuing from
deceased's head, and there was a large pool of blood in
the stable. The deceased used to caress and feed the
horse occasionally, and it was remarkably quiet, and
seemed sensible of her at ten' ion. In the opinion of the
witness, the deceased was feeding the horse, when he, in
play, knocked her oonnet off, and it fell on the ground;
that he then became frightened, and knocking her down,
kicked her on the head, as he found the bonnet on the
floor of the stable, and the off hind heel of the horse
was covered with blood. When he extricated deceased
life was quite exiinct. The jury returned a verdict of
"Accidental Death." The young lady was highly re-
spected by the whole neighbourhood, and the melancholy
event hag thrown a gloom over the district.

THE COUNTRY MARKETS.

Livrearoot, MARCH 10.—The trade generally has con-
tinued inactive during the week. There was a small attendance
of the trade at yesterday's matket, and the business done in
wheat and flour was quite in retail, at a reduction, in some in-
stances, of Id per bushel and 6d per barrel. Oats were id per
bushel cheaper, and oatmeal 3d to 6d per load also. There
was scarcely any demand for barley, beans, or peas. The best
yellow Indian corn, being scarce, brought Tuesday's rates,
namely, 2Vs 6d to 30s for fat and round corn, but the secon.
dary qualities of white and mixed were 6d per quarter cheaper
than on Tuesday. Fine yellow Indian meal sells at 14s to 14s
6d per barrel. Nothing of interest in the trade to-day, and
the sales made are quite in retail, and the prices for every
article of the trade remain unchanged
.since yesterday.
MA NCH ESTER,lll.tacn 10.—During the present week a life-
less feeling has prevailed in the trade generally, and all articles
have met a slow sale at prices in favour of buyers. Coastwise
and from Ireland the arrivals at Liverpool and Runcorn are
only to a moderate amount; whilst from abroad the imports
comprise 3,424 quarters of wheat, 2,400 quarters of beans, 4,192
quarters of Indian corn, and 24,924 barrels of flour. Our
market this morning was of an exceedingly inanimate charac-
ter, and on wheat we quote a reduction of Id to 2d per 701 b.
For flour the demand was very limited, and in the little busi-
ness effected it was necessary to submit to a decline of fully 6d
per sack on any but the choicest qualities. Oats receded in value
Id par 451 b, and oatmeal, the consumption of which appears to
be much interfered with by the low prices of other articles of
food, moved off tardily on rather lower terms.
WINCHESTER, MARCH 10.—Corn—Although the Exchange
was crowsled by farmers, millers, and corn dealers. ti ere ap..
p.ared but little doing—speculation none ; the only purchases
being in wheat, just sufficient for immediate use. The samples
shown were numerous, not only of home grown, but of very
superioi continental ditto. Several merchants from South-
ampton endeavoured to press sales, yet they did not succeed to
any extent. Generally speaking, finest Dantzic, Stettin,
Odessa, and St. Petersburgh wheats exceeded the English
grown, both as to weight and quality, some weighing 621bs up
to 641bs per bushel, while much of our own was not more than
from 591bs to 601bs ditto. Finest samples cannot be quoted
much lower than on this day week ; all other descriptions
might have been had at almost any reasonable price offered.
We observed some indifferent red which sold at 6/ 103 per
load; much offered at Si to 91 ditto; top prices from 12/ to
13/ ditto. Finest English flour sold at 38s per sack of
280Ibs ; for seconds, 34s to 35s 4d ditto ; thirds, 32s
to 33s ditto ; Sweet American, from 26s to 28s per barrel ;
Canadian, 25, to 27s ditto; Silesia, 24, to 26s ditto; Indian
corn, white, 30s to 32s per qr ; ditto, yellow, 31s to 34s ditto ;
ditto, meal, per barrel, of 196 lin, 17s to 175 6d. Barley—

charged with wilfully and corruptly giving false
evidence in an examination before a Commissioner of
Bankrupts.
It appeared that a fiat and proceedings in the Court
of Bankruptcy bad been instituted on the 28th of
April, 1849, against Hugh Swan, of 57, High-street,
Camden-town, and of 15, Hanway-street, Tottenham-
court-road, in the county of Middlesex, draper and
chapman. Mr. Swan surrendered himself under the
fiat on the 16th of May. On the 15th of June the
prisoner, who was described as Charles Bishop, of
Mortlake, in the county of Surrey, was examined as
to his connexion with the bankrupt, when, amongst
other statements, he swore that " he never put money
in the savings' bank or in the Bank of England." It,
however, was shown th at a person who was believed
to be the prisoner, had, in company with a man named
John Hopkins, called on a Mr. Thomas William Duff,
a clerk in the Bank of England, and after a represen-
tation being made that the prisoner had received 25/.
from a sweepstake, and wished to invest it in the
Three-and-a-Quarter per Cent. Annuities, it was
accordingly so invested in the name and description
of " Charles Bishop, of Walham-green, Fulham,
gentleman ;" and the transfer of 251. 15s. sd. was
from " Mr. Stanton Mitchell, of the Stock Exchange,
to Charles Bishop." The signature to the prisoner's
depositions was also sworn to.
Mr. Jones prayed for a further remand, as he
thought he had brought forward sufficient evidence to
justify the Alderman in doing so.
Mr. Price contended there was not, as no identity
had been proved.
Alderman KELLY said, he thought there was suffi-
cient evidence before him ; and, therefore, he stood
remanded until Thursday next.
Mr. Price said, that perhaps the Alderman would
accept bail.
Mr. Alderman KELLY said he would, the prisoner
in 801. and two sureties in 401. each, with 24 hours'
notice.

The prisoner was conveyed to the Compter.
MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

John Hedge Wickham, picture dealer, was brought
before Mr. Bingham for final examination, charged
with a series of frauds on picture dealers, and also
with having unlawfully obtained and disposed of 31
pictures, some of considerable value, the property of
Alfred Bartington, !picture dealer, 48, Grosvenor-
street.

A great many pawnbrokers came forward and pro-
duced pictures pledged by order of the prisoner.
After a vast quantity of evidence spreading over
three separate examinations had been gone through,
Mr. BINGHAM decided upon convicting the prisoner
on three cases, inflicting a fine of 51. in addition to
the value of the property in each case, or two months'
imprisonment—making in all six months' imprison-
ment.

AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY
cii.ANGE OF MINISTRY.
A letter from Vienna, dated OCt. Ist, says—,
" The dissensions which have long prevailed in the
Cabinet have at length reached a crisis. Schwar7.en-
burg and Bach are said to have declared their intention
of resigning. The questions which have set Ministers
at odds are the Hungarian and German questions. The
portion of the Cabinet expected to go out is the most
liberal, and represents the principles of the March
constitution. A courier started to-day for London with
dispatches to Colloredo, who is invited to accept the
ministry of foreign affairslin the new Cabinet. Schmerling
is talked of as president. The new policy will be to
sink the constitution of March 4, and to assume a very
decided attitude on the German question."
The Swabian Mercury says the concentration of
great masses of troops in Bohemia and Moravia has
created great apprehensions at Vienna, as indicative
of a Prussian war. This corps of observation has
been formed at the request of Archduke JouN, Vicar-
General of Germany. It is asserted that Prince
SCHWAETZENBURG has received a very strong note
from the Prussian Government, protesting against
' the presence of so great a force in Bohemia, and
threatening that unless it is reduced, they will send
forces to double the amount to the frontier.
The Breslau Gazette states that the Emperor of
AUSTRIA has ratified all the conditions of capitulation
granted by General HAYNAU to the garrison of
Comorn.
The Grand Duke of TUSCANY has quitted Vienna
on his return to his dominions.
The Lloyd says that it has received the following
particulars relative to the Hungarian refugees in
Turkey from unquestionable authority :—" The nar-
rator was at Widdin on the 23d of September, where
he saw the camp of Hungarian prisoners, to the
number of about 5,000, lodged on a vast plain"
Among the prisoners he observed a great number of
hussars. The entire camp was surrounded by Ot-
toman troops. The Pacha was at Kalafat, with 1,500
men. The troops who have guarded the frontier
throughout the Hungarian war were to return to
Braila. The Pacha announced to the narrator that
KOSSUT LI, BEM, the two PERCZELS, MESSAROS,
D EMEIN SILT, and the other Magyar chiefs, were
lodged in a fortress."
The Wiener Zeitung of the 30th contains the
following official announcement :
" The treaty of surrender, on the part of the Comorn
garrison, was signed on the 27th, instant. On the 28th
Field-Marshal-Lieut. Nobili, accompanied by officers of
the artillery and engineer corps, and the army commis-
saries, proceeded to Comorn, to make the necessary
preparations for a regular occupation, and possession
will be taken on Monday, Oct. 1."

" Malvolio " has been admirably engraved by Staines;
aul Webster's capital painting of the " Truant," by

to these embellishments, the Art Journal for October
contains a charming sketch of Marshall's very exquisite
statue of Sabrina, a production which has recently
been copied in porcelain statuettes of singular ele-
gance by Alderman Copeland. The recent exhibi-
tion of art and manufactures at Birmingham is de-
scribed in the present number of this periodical with
a prodigal profusion of very excellent wood-cuts.
Beyond which, the publication is replete with inte-
resting information appertaining to art and artists.

The Giornale di Roma of the 25th ult. publishes a

Bologna by Count Thurm, Governor of ' Parma.
Seventeen Tuscans, who had formed part of Gari-
baldi's band, were removed from Bologna on the 26th
to the Tuscan frontier. Eight other executions had
taken place at Bologna.
The Venice Gazette of the 28th ult. announces
that the cholera had completely disappeared in that
city. Six vessels, with Neapolitan refugees on board,
having been denied admission at Ancona and Pescara,
and being in want of provisions, had returned to
Venice. The Austrian Governor would not allow
them to land, but supplied them with provisions and
passports, to enable them to navigate freely in the
Mediterranean.

Military Governor of Venice, dated the 26th ult.,

PRUSSIA.

The following is the proposition of the King ol
PRUSSIA, for the formation of a German central

power :
PRUSSIAN PROPOSITION FOR THE FORMA-
TION OF A CENTRAL POWER.
"I. Austria and Prussia agree to an interim, and lay
it before the other States, whereby the central power
for the German Cenfecreration is entrusted to the five
mentioned Powers until 26th May, 1850; that is, should
a definitive power not be constituted before that period.
" 11. The object of the interim is the maintenance of
the German Confederation, as a lawful national union
for the protection of the independence and inviolability
of all States belonging to the Confederation, and for
the maintenance of the internal and external security
of Germany. (Final Acts, Congress of Vienna, Art. 1.)
"111. During the interim the question of the German
Constitution, and more especially the formation of a more
intimate Federal State, shall be left to the free acepto.-
don of the States. The same belongs to the questions to be
decided in plenum, according to the 6th article of the
Acts of the Confederation.
" IV. If at the expiration of the interim, the question
of a Constitution, and especially- that of a more intimate
union, shll not be settled, then Gern Governments
will co ©a to an accord as to the further existence of the
present union.
" V. The affairs hitherto entrusted to the Provisional
Central Power, in so far as they come within the com-
petency of the more intimate union, according to the
principles laid down in the laws of the Confederation,
shall, during the existence of the interim, be entrusted
to a State Committee, to which Austria and Prussia will
each furnish two members, and which will have its seat
equality
the Govern-
tytween of votes, the deci-
sion Mayence.
" VI. This State Commission will conduct the affairs
independently, under responsibility to those according
lancec absye o4e
ruda
meats of Austria and Prussia, which, in case of need,
it fnul willl
powers.take p l
will issue a decree of arbitration. The affairs now
conducted by the State Ministry (Frankfort) will be
made over to distinct departments, of which the superior
management will be divided between the members of the
commission.
" VII. So soon as the assent of the Governments
(Austria and Prussia) has been obtained to this plan,
his Imperial Highness the Archduke John will re-
sign his rights and duties, which he was instructed
to hold as national property, into the hands of their
Majesties the Emperor of Austria and King of Prussia.
The First Chamber, on the 2d October, resumed
the debate upon the 11th article of the Constitution,
touching liberty of conscience, freedom of religious
practices and observances, &c., &c. After a long
debate, in which Professor of Theology WALTER, of

WESTMINSTER.

William Seabright, a well known thief, was
charged with stealing a valuable table timepiece from
the residence of Lady Louisa Emily Seaford, 60,
Eaton- square.
Between eight and nine o'clock yesterday morning
James Thomas, a plasterer at work near her Lady-
ship's house, observed the prisoner and two other
fellows lurking about the place, and shortly after•
wards missed the prisoner for two or three minutes,
and then saw him join his companions with something
concealed under his coat. The plasterer, whose
suspicions were excited, immediately followed them,
accompanied by a man named Holder, when the
prisoner, having suddenly turned round and observed
them, threw a timepiece into the enclosca. s.rac.D in
Eaton-square and took to his heels, but was pursued
and captured by a policeman. It was shortly after-
wads discovered that the timepiece had been stolen
from the residence of Lady Seaford, in the front

it into the enclosure. He had entered her Ladyship's
house by the front parlour window, which was found
open upon the timepiece being missed.

FRANCE.
A report having been mentioned in some of the
journals that the cholera had broken out at Nice,
the British Consul in that city, Mr. Lacroix, has
written to contradict the: report, and enclosed
certificates to the same effect from the two English
resident physicians, Doctors Travis and Gurney. The
Consul, after declaring that there was not the
slightest foundation for the report that the cholera
had appeared at Nice, adds, "It is the opinion of
the medical board that never was the sanitary state
of this place more satisfactory than it is at present.
It may also be mentioned as a striking fact that,
in the former outbreak of the cholera in this country,
whilst other places on the same line of coast were
severely visited by :the malady, the average annual
mortality of Nice was only increased by about twenty
deaths."

AUSTRIA.
Letters from Pesth of the 29th of September
i (pub-
lished in Lloyd), state that it was understood n that
city that the concessions to the garrison of Comorn
would include the granting of passports to foreign
countries to all those compromised in the rebellion,
it being obligatory upon the insurgents to leave Hun-
gary within 48 hours. There was also a report afloat
that 600,000 florins would be granted to the inhabitants
of Comorn for " the raising of that city from its
ruins ;" and it was even believed that some arrange-
ment would be made for the redemption of the paper
money in actual circulation.
The Ost-Deutsche Post, on the other hand, states
that the troops in the garrison were to receive eight
days' pay, and that the compromised leaders were to
be allowed to depart. The same paper adds that the
capitulation had been already confirmed by the Em-
peror. According to the Breslau Zeitung there were
7,000 regular troops and 18,000 honveds in Comorn.

TURKEY.

A large fleet of steamers has been collected in the
waters of the Bosphorus and in the harbour of the
Golden Horn ; and between the entrance to the Black
Sea and the Propontis, or sea of Marmora, there are
twelve ships of the line at anchor, fully equipped and
plentifully supplied with arms and provisions.
It is allowed on all sides that no nation in Europe
can exhibit a finer fleet at this moment, and compe-
rent authorities affirm that both officers and seamen
perfectly understand their duty.
In the army of 100,000 soldiers assembled round
the Turkish capital, drilling and reviewing are going
on from daylight till dusk, and the Seraskier, and the
Pachas under his command, are constantly moving
about to inspect the troops.

The Consular business of Russia and Austria is
transacted by the Prussian Legation. That friend of
order and legitimacy the Emperor of Austria is en-
deavouring to foment an insurrection among the
Greek subjects of the Porte. Like his brother of
Naples, he chooses thieves and murderers as his
especial pets and allies.
