HALF-PAST ONE.
The following is an extract of a letter received this morn-
ing from an officer at Vittoria in Col. Evans's own Regiment :
" Vittoria, Feb 29—It is a month since I wrote to my
father, and to-day received his welcome letter of the Bth ult. ;
this will go by post—the best conveyance.
" Our troops have been quartered in villages on the road to
Logrono since the Ist inst. : in the meantime the Carlists
have taken the garrisons of Balmasado and Meradillo ; but
General Evans is now Commander-in-Chief of the whole
army of the left, and has now the materiel wherewith to put
an end to the Carlists. By the end of March his army will con-
sist of at least 30,000 effective men, with the Portuguese and
English divisions, the Spaniards, and the new levies. We were
to have marched to-morrow for the North, but the weather is so
bad that we shall not be able to move. We have had nothing but
snow, rain, wet, and thaws for the last three months, a thing
unheard-of in this country, and which has been the cause of
the typhus fever, which has been playing the devil with us ;
but lam happy to say it has also attacked the enemy. We
have lost a fine set of officers, among whom Mr. Lewis, and a
great many of our doctors, have been carried off. As for my
part, I was never so well in my life. I have been employed
in the command of the sth, the Colonel having been ill for the
last month. I am now appointed to the 10th, Evans's own
regiment, the best in the service • they arc all a fine see of
strapping Irish boys, used all their life to tramping, and
very different from the half-starved puny set of Scotch weavers
and tailors who call themselves Highlanders. O'Connell
commands us—you will not like the name, but he is a gen-
tleman, and the best officer in the service."

Consols continue at 911 for the Account, and 911 for
Money—little doing ; Exchequer Bills, 19 21 ; India Bonds,
4 6 ; Foreign Securities—Spanish Active, 44—improved since
the morning ; Portuguese, 77i 781 ; Three per cents, 481 i;

A` strong report prevails in the city of the intervention of
France with Spain, which has caused an improvement in the
Spanish Bonds, which are quoted at 44.

RAPE.—A case of rape, of a most diabolical cha-
racter, was perpetrated at Yate and Pickup Bank, on the Ist
of March, on the person of Ann Houghton, 21 years of age,
wife of John Houghton, weaver, resident in that township.
The circumstances of the case are these :—Abont seven o'clock
on the morning in question, Houghton got up to kindle the
fire, leaving his wife in bed, she having been delivered of a
child only three weeks before. He went to a neighbour's
house for a light, and immediately after his departure George
Leach, who lives about half a mite off, went in and shut the
door after him. He then went to the bed where the woman
and her child lay, and she being in a weak state, he succeeded
in effecting his purpose. The husband shortly after came in,
and found the prisoner sitting upon the bed, and his wife cry-
ing by the fire. She immediately told him what had taken
place, and after Leach left the house he had him taken into
custody. He was brought before John Lister, Esq. on the
following day, and committed for an assault with intent to
commit a rape.
The Presbytery of Paisley have got a question of
heterodoxy before them. The exact grounds of charge are
not stated, but if Dr. Burns' estimate is correct, they are of a
very grave character. At this stage of the business, we shall
merely remark that Dr. Fleming of Neilston, the person ac-
cused, is by no means likely to lapse into error through inad-
vertency, or to be led away by doctrinal eccentricities under
any circumstances.--Greenock Advertiser,

GERMAN PAPERS.
The occupation of Cracow, by the Northern POlVelly aro,
pears, under the present circumstances, to be an event )1
great importance. It is evident that the threatening atfr
tulle of England has made the Cabinet of St. Petersburgn
in its
so sensible of the danger of a focus of insurrection
immediate neighbourhood, that a prompt and decisive inter-
immediate
inter-
ference certainly appears to he justified in the politicrac
al sw
tion of Russia. It will be remembered, too, that C.o
has been for some time an object of the particular attentio.n
of the British Government, and this may serve to espial°
why the three powers lost no time in acting in their cap%
city of protectors of the city republic of Cracow,. caring
lit"
for subsequent remonstrances. ic ations
BERLIN, MARCH s.—lt is said that neg,
have been commenced on the part of Russia vri6 *le
Belgian COMthissioners preparatory to the accession of 13e17
gium to the Gernattu Commercial Union. This might pref.,.
of very great importance to Belgium, Germany, and
land. The first would find a market for its productions,
which France would not give it ; the second would have a
communication with the sea ; and the third would doubt-
less be rendered more inclined to make the concessions
which, in spite of all remonstrances, it has constantlyian r
fused ever since 1815. A matter in which such imPr
interests are involved cannot be settled in a short time-
The accession of Frankfort is likewise considered as ail,
event which will prove very advantageous to the trade 0'
Germany.
