Intelligence from Valenciennes, of the 15th of
March, records a frightful crime which has just been com-
mitted in the Commune d'Errin, near Valenciennes. An in-
habitant of that village, a superintendent of farm-labourers, on
the night between Friday and Saturday, suddenly rushed upon
his wife and strangled her, partly by the compression of his
fingers on her throat, and partly by plunging her head into a
ditch of water till she was dead. Remorse immediately after-
wards seized the murderer, who inflicted several desperate
wounds with a razor on his throat; lie was found without
scnie, and thought at first to be dead, but the carotid artery
not having been cut, the murderer, under the care of a skilful
surgeon, survived the perpetration of his double crime, and is
now sufficiently recovered to undergo his trial for the murder.
lirt and his wife are both old people, one being 60, the other
62. They have been married thirty years ; and it is an extra-
ordinary feature of this frightful transaction that jealousy is
stated to have been the prompting cause which urged the hus-
band to commit the murderous outrage upon his wife. The
Proem cur du Roi, and a neighbouring magistrate, imme-
diately transferred themselves to the spot in order to take the
n 'eessary depositions and preliminaries. for the judicial inves-
tigatim of this d:cadful affair.—Constautionnel.

HIGHWAY ROBBERY.—At Wandsworth Petty
Sessions on Tuesday, John Wood, who described himself as
a plumber, and who appeared in a very wretched state,
was charged with a highway robbery upon the person of Mrs.
Chevalier, the wife of a respectable tradesman living in
Yardley-street, Wilmington-square, Clerkenw ell. It ap-
peared from the evidence cf the prosecutrix, that on Mon-
day last she left home by a stage-coach, on a visit to a
friend in the neighbourhood of Wimbledon. On her return,
being too late for the coach, she was compelled to proceed
on foot to Fulham, across the common ; it was then about six
o'clock. After she had proceeded a short distance the pri-
soner sprang upon her and demanded her money; at the same
moment he presented a pistol to her head, and threatened that
he would at once blow her brains out if she did not deliver up
to him what money she had about her ; adding, that he was
reduced to the last extremity—that he had a wife and family at
home in a starving state, and he did not care what became of
him. She then, under the fear of his threat, gave hint what
money she had, which amounted to about 31., which consisted
of nine half-crowns, a half-sovereign, and the remainder in
ver and copper. After the prisoner had robbed her ho put tl;e
pistol in his pocket. She then remarked to him that she had
to go to London, and as he had taken from her all the money
she had, perhaps he would let her have 2s. to pay for the omm•
bus to London, and a halfpenny to go over the bridge. Ile gave
her what she required. She then remarked to him that she
would be obliged to him if he would accompany her within a
short distance of Fulham, to protect her, as, being alone, she
might ho again stopped, and if she were stopped,
the person
would not believe but that she bad money about her. Taeprisoner agreed, and they walked together some distance-
They passed two or three men, who were walking singly.
The prosecutrix, however, did not think it prudent to alarm
them ; but on coming up to a policeman, she instantly ac-
quainted him, and at the same time seized the prisoner, who,
having used great exertions, extricated himself from her grasp
and ran away, lie was pursued by the police-officer, who
speedily apprehended him. The prisoner did not deny the
charge, but stated that he had a wife and five children at home,
who were in a state of the most deplorable destitution. lie
was committed for trial. The bench highly praised the conduct
of the prosecutrix, who had displayed such coolness and intre-
pidity upon the trying ocea;irn in which she was placed.
LONG DRAINS.—The Ainslie prizes, given at
Kirkaldy on Friday last, were restricted to the greatest length
of drains on the Deanston plan, begun and completed between
Candlemas 1837 and 1838. The successful competitor was
Mr. Hutchison, for having executed on Fosterton, a farm of
311 acres, no less than 1,330 chains of drains, 80 chains to
the taiile that is, nearly 17 miles. These were from 2 feet to
2 feet 2 in depth, and 6 ieches wide at bottom and 16 at tar,
at a cost of from Is. 2d. to ls. 4d. per chain. Mr. Hutchi-
son, we understand, had the pt evions year completed a similar
amount of drains, that is, 34 miles in two sears ! These por-
tentous lengths, from the conversation amongst the
gentlemen
themselves, seemed scarcely even to afford a sample of the
ma.mificence of these r P. rations on the south cast of Fife.
On Tucsday evening the body of the Rev. Mr.
Bo; rodaile, whose melancholy death was stated in the News"
popers a few we ks ago, was picked up on the river near West •
minster-bridge, by the Thames police, who carefully removed
it ashore, and gave information to the Coroner of the circum-
stance.

Sur—l beg leave to call your attention to a grievance lately
inflicted upon us by our Law Reformers. By the old Courts
o' Request Acts no costs were given to the pl lintiff in any action
brought in any Superior Court. in which the sum recovered
did not amount to 3/. But by the new County Courts Act
the old Acts are repealed. and although jurisdiction in
matters where the sum in dispute amounts to 51., and no
more, is given to the new Courts, yet the plaintiff is not
obliged to have recourse to these Courts, only save when
the sum in dispute does not exceed 40s.—thus leaving
the law attorney at liberty to sue out writs in the Su-
perior Courts, and run up long bills of colts on de-
mands of the most trifling description. Now this is surely
wrong—either the New Courts arc competent to decide upon
questions in which 51. is the amount in dispute, or they arc
not. If they are give them, the sole jurisdiction—if not, why
give it to them at all ? lam induced to offer these remarks
by a fact which has come under my personal observation. A
writ of summons was taken out against a person for 21. 25.,
and by law expenses the sum paid by the defendant, although
no opposition was made, amounted to 121.—the costs being
" five times" the ori:,inal debt. lam very much inclined to
think that the alteration was made through inadvertency; and
should this catch the eye of any influential person, I hope that.
he may be induced to exert himself to alter the law, and be
may be assured that in so doing he will save many a poor
wretch from a prison and its miseries.

LONDON :
THURSDAY EVENING, MARCH 22, 1838.

Our curiosity as to the Standard's defence has not been
gratified. Our Contemporary supplicates for a few days'
grace, and a few days' grace the public will give it. In
the mean time some events of infinite importance compared
to the character of the Standard will arise, and this
pecadillo, like other pecadillos, will be forgotten by all, ex-
cept the select few, who may have felt themselves insulted
by being dragged before the public with the Standard's
hook in their nostrils, or who may for the moment have
trembled lest the charm of delusion should have been
broken. In the mean time, too, the great ingenuity of the
Standard, which nobody doubts, will be exercised, and as
good a case made out as an accomplished advocate can
frame. We shall do our Contemporary the justice to in-
sert his vindication, and charitably draw his attention to
some points, which he will have to establish. The Stan-
dard says :

We have elsewhere inserted a correspondence between the
Earl of Winchilsea and Mr. O'Connell, on the subject of a
supposed extract from the evidence of the latter before one of
the Committees of 18.33, in which correspondence the cha-
racter of the Standard is involved.
The Earl of Winchilsea states correctly that the extract in
question appeared in our Journal of February 5, 1833, and
that it is not borne out by the officially published reports.
We may be forgiven if we cannot at the moment lay our
bands upon the authority from which we quoted a passage more
than five years ago ; but knowing that we have ever been inca-
pable of fabrication, and that we always exercise a conscien-
tious care in considering our authority, before making a
quotation, we are perfectly confident that we shall be able to
justify our conduct in giving the extract in question. This is
not the first occasisn upon which we have had to request the
patience of our readers in such a matter ; but we have some
pride in saying, that if we fail to justify ourselves in this affair,
it will be the first instanee of such a failure on onr part.
In the present position of the question it would be unbecom-
ing in us to say one word as to the probable authenticity or
probable spuriousness of the extract. We may be, however, per-
mitted to remark, that as the quotation imputes no opinion to
Atr. O'Connell, of which, in the abstract, any man need be
ashamed, the date of its appearance in the Standard ( Feb. 5,
1833), when Mr. 0' Oonnell had not yet either spoken or
voted otherwise than in strict conformity with all the opinions
imputed to him—no Church question having thge, been raised
in Parliament—demonstrates that no hostility to Mr. O'Con-
nell, or unworthy motive of any kind, can be fairly surmised
as nrompting us to deviate from the good faith which it has
been our anxious desire to observe.

Once again, we submit that we arc tntiticd to a few days'
delay to account for a quotation made more than five years
ago.

Perhaps some Correspondent will assist our research, by
pointing out the version of the Parliamentary evidence from
which the extract (annexed to the correspondence) has been
taken.

Of this vindication the Chronicle remarks :
With all deference to our Contemporary, the authority from
which he quoted was the evi fence of Mr. O' Connell itself,
and as the evidence does not bear out the quotation, the
conscientious care exercised in this case is not very intelligible.
Supposing he succeed in tracing the extract, purporting to be
Mr. O'Connell's evidence, to some Orange journal of Ireland,
this, though it would dispose of the fabrication, would not con-
stitute a proof of conscientious care, when the reports of the
evidence themselves were the obvious source to which he
ought to have resorted. Under such circumstances our con-
temporary must admit that his defence is hardly satisfactory.
This directs the attention of the Standard to one im-
portant matter. It will have to produce that evidence
given by Mr. O'CossteLL, which bears out, contrary to
what the Earl of WINCHILSEA asserts, the opinions attri-
buted to Mr. O'CONNELL by the Standard. The Noble
Earl says
" I have discovered that the extracts of the evidence, re-
ported to have been given ly you (Mr. O'Connell) before the
Parliamentary Committee in 1825 were inserted in the
Standard newspaper, of the sth of February, 1833, accom-
panying the leading article of that. day."
The Standard then must produce those portions of Mr.
O'CONNELL'S evidence, given before the Parliamentary
Committee in 1825, which it inserted as an extract in its own
leader, and nothing else will suffice to prove its innocence.
Mr. O'CONNELL denies the words attributed to him.
Lord WLNCHILSEA says the evidence given by Mr.
O'CostteeLL before either Committee bears no such cor_
struction ; and the Standard must produce that particular
and express edition of the reports of the Committees
which it quoted. It will not do, as the Chronicle ingeni-
ously suggests, to bring forward—if it can be found—some
Orange journal of Ireland as a scape-goat for the evidence
inserted in the Standard leader, which Lord WINCIIILSEA
quoted on the authority of his own ultra-pious and ultra-
Protestant journal, and upon no other. If the extracts
quoted from the evidence were taken by the Standard
from another paper, it is plain that it led its poor dupes
to believe that they rested on its own authority.
In the article we have above quoted from the Standard,
our Contemporary says that. the " extract imputes no
opinions to Mr. O'CONNELL of which in the abstract any
man need be as'lamed." Now Mr. O'CONNELL is a
Catholic, and he had been before 1833 labouring a number
of years to procure Catholic Emancipation. The extract,
however, says that he recommended the absolute aboli-
tion of the 40s. freeholders, for the purpose of securing the
Established religion in Ireland ; and that no concession
should be made to the Catholics unless the Establishment
in Ireland be rendered inviolable. Lord WINCHIGSZA has
quoted these recommendations of Mr, O'CONNELL on dif-
ferent necasigns in the House of Peers ; they have fre-
quently gone the round of the Press, and have justified the
Tory Journals in denouncing Mr. O'CoNN ELL as a wilful,
designing, docxiving, perjured man. Yet the Standard
says that the opinions on which such a charge is founded
Are nothing to be ashamed of. The object of Mr.
O'CoNtittes life has been to throw off that bond-
age or the Established Church, which the -Standard
represents him as recommending should be continued,
awl that even the 40s. freeholders should be dis-
franchised to secure it, and yet, in that, there is nothing
for Mr. O'CONNELL to be ashamed of. If the Standard's
opinions of what is true resemble its opinions of what is
shameful, the ingenuity of its defence may be anticipated.
We give our Contemporary the grace ha demands before
expressing. our final opinion, and look with some impatience
for the ingenious article which Orange Journals and useful
Correspondents will enable our Contemporary to write.

One of the great boasts of the Tories is that their politi-
cal conduct is all resolution and energy, while that of the
Whigs is all vacillation and feebleness. The Tories, if we
believe them, are all men of a strong will and comprehen-
sive mind, who impress, at least when in office, their own
genius on the age. They never deviate into weakness, or
1.:1,. fell short of the mark. They do not follow society, but
_lbie'l'l kikat it along, whithersoever they will, at their
fAii iiictint chariot-wheels. BONAPARTE was content to

PARTE, and men and 'things must submit to their iron rule.
The Corn Laws, pressing us down to. hunger, area pure
Specimen of Toryism. Though sovise Nitblo Voted for

resolut3en -..,f 'the landed gentlemen legally to plunder

of it—their fierce resolution ti--.) resist every change
in the Corn Laws-i.-ther pitiless disregard of starviug
multitudes, FO long as their law be upheld—are all
Ertnuinc Toryism. The Corn Laws are in fact the veryl
essence of that Tory scheme of Governmatt, which is
comer;-sed in one maxim. " 'Tit' people arc created for their'
rulers, and must rerish to promote the smallest conve-
niency of their masters." The Tories have in practice cs
, rayed to realise even a worse idolatry than that of the poe _
for his mistress, and have required that nations should withe
and die for their paltriest advantage. On Tuesday nigh
ilthe system was again exhibited in its true colours, an
Lord Cllasmos, who stands wholly excused of Whig re-
lenting, or Whig vacillation, on the subject of the Corn-
laws, with other landed gentlemen, stoutly opposed a poor
measure for allowing foreign grown corn to be even manu-
factured in England under the lock of the Customs, so that
all the flour or bread made from it might be re-exported.
The motion for a Committee was carried, and our millers
may possibly be indulged, though it is not yet certain, with
the privilege of grinding foreign wheat, but the people must
not eat it. One of the landed gentlemen, Sir E. KNATCIIBULL,
while he denied the chat ge of selfishness, justly made against
his whole tribe, expressly admitted that he thought no harm
could en,ue if none of this corn were eaten by the people.
He voted, however, against the motion. The Scripture
says, " Thou shalt not muzzle the ox when he treadeth
out the corn ;" but our landowners, treating their coun-
trymen worse than the Israelites treated their oxen,
expressly enact that the millers shall be muzzled, and
shall not eat one atom of that corn which they prepare for
food. On the condition alone, that the law be so jealously
guarded, that such vigilant and expensive watchfulness be
established, at the public expense, that none of this corn
shall be consumed by the people, some of the landlords
hint that they may relent. This is called upright, honour-
able legislation in this Christian country, and thus to muzzle
the people by a Custom-house lock is called by the land-
owners the public welfare. Reason as they may, argue as
they will, mystify as they can, they never will persuade one
generation that it is for their advantage to be half starved,
that another generation may perhaps be abundantly fed on
corn wholly and exclusively grown on the ground monopo-
lized by CHANDOS, KNATCHBULL, and the rest of the land-
owning law-makers.

We have received a Report of a Select Committee of
the Legislative Council of Upper Canada, dated the 18th
ult., on the state of that Province ; and embracing an his-
torical epitome of the origin, progress, extent, and ex-
tinction of the late rebellion. It is one of those official
documents, more remarkable for great length and extreme
wordiness, than for the trust-worthiness of alleged facts,
and the sound statesmanship of recommendatory sugges-
tions. As we are morally certain that it would not find a
reader among a thousand of our subscribers, we shall de-
vote our columns to something more useful than an attempt
to give currency to a mass of silly, contradictory, imperti-
nent rubbish.

Mr. WARD brings on a motion to-night in the House of
Commons, in which the interests of the British residents in
India are deeply involved. The object of the motion is
the appointment of a Select Committee to enquire into the
grounds of a petition from the inhabitants of Calcutta and
others, against an Act of the Legislative Council passed
in 1836, by which they consider themselves greatly
aggrieved. This Act took away the right of appeal
to the Supreme Civil Court at the different Presi-
dencies, and also the right of exemption by reason of
descent which Europeans enjoyed from the jurisdiction of
the native Courts, the judges of which are often very cor-
rupt, as well as ignorant of law. The hardship imposed on
the European inhabitants by being subjected to such tribu-
nals may be easily conceived to be severe, and in many
cases so intolerable as to drive them from India. No reason-
able person can object to their complaints being at least taken
into consideration by the Legislature. We therefore antici-
pate that Mr. WARD'S motion will meet with no opposifol.

The sacred mantle of Sir ANDREW AGNEW appears to
have descended on the shoulders of his successor, Mr.
PLUMPTRE, who last night moved the second reading of
his Sunday-starvation Bill, on the whimsical plea that it
was a measure for the prevention of the unrighteous dese-
cration of the Sabbath. The Hon. Gentleman observed
that he was quite aware that he should be made a martyr
of, for venturing to legislate upon such a theme ; but not
even the recollection of St. LAWRENCE and his gridiron,
or, to quote his own words, " No taunts nor sneers should
deter him from pursuing the course on this subject which he
should think right." Mr. PLU3IPTRE'S courage is more to be
commended than his discretion, or he would not hare ven-
tured on the perilous task of standing godfather to a Bill which
is. nearly, if not quite, as stringent as its predecessors, and
cann .t fail to cover its sponsor with ridicule. Sir AN-
DREW'S Sabbath restriction Acts, were chiefly remarkable
for the svre2ping anathemas which they hurled against old
women and their apple-stalls, whom they knocked down
with as little ceremony as if they had been nine-pins ; the
present Bill directs the thunder of its eloquence chiefly
against " bakers, and the keepers of ale-houses and beer-
shops." These are the infidels, quoth Mr. PLUMPTRE, who are
"the chief violators of the Sabbath." The hotal and club-house
keepers at the West-end, are quite innocent in this respect.
They never violate the grave propriety of the Lord's Day!
Their establishments are always rigidly kept shut. No
aristocratic carriages are ever seen standing at their doors ;
no cooks working in a state of professional perspiration in
their kitchens ; ask for the landlord, he is at church ; for
the waiter, he is following the same righteous example ;
for the chambermaid, she is on her knees at the
New Jerusalem. Never were such pious, well-
conducted establishments It is perfect madness
to legislate against paragons of sanctity like these ;
no, no ; it, is against the athiestical bakers and ale-house
keepers that we must legislate. These are the real Sab-
bath violators—wretches who, in spite of law and Gospel
that decree, or ought to decree otherwise, think it no sin
to bake the poor man's leg of mutton, or supply
him with a draught of cool ale, when he may be
fatigued with a hot and dusty walk along the
high-roads on a Sunday. Coerce all such profane,
uncivilized heathens, quoth Mr. PLUMPTRE ; and
accordingly it is seriously proposed, in a Reformed House
of Commcns, by a majority of seventy-one, to consider the
question of their coercion ! Now we beg to enter our
most earnest protest against absurd, partial legislation like
this. Why shut the door of the baker's oven, and leave
the door of the club-house kitchen open ? Why punish the
poor ale-house keeper, and permit the rich landlord of the
west-end hotel to do what he will with impunity ?
Let not the vengeance of the law fall only on Lazaitus's
mug of beer, and baked leg of mutton ; but let it visit also
DIVES'S sparkling champagne and steaming calipash.
We have no patience with these crude, crazy, partial Sab-
bath Bills. They engender a world of cant, under the pre-
tence of furthering the interests of devotion. We shall not
lose sight of this subject.

Many and important as have been the changes in Spain
since the commencement of the Carlist rebellion, they have
in no way affected the policy which it was the duty of
England and France to have adopted, the instant it was
ascertained that the QUEEN'S Government was not in a
condition, unaided, to crush the insurrection in the Basques.
The intervention proclaimed by M. TRIERS, three years
ago, as necessary to the pacification of the Peninsula, is
only more imperatively called for by the events that have
since taken place. Neither the proclamation of the Con-
stitution, nor the banishment and recal of the framers and
champions of the Estatato Real, has had that in-
fluence upon the principle involved in the question
of intervention as to affect, in the slightest degree, the
engagements entered into by the Powers who signed
the Quadruple Treaty. The war in Spain is still a deadly
struggle in which we see usurpation, despotism, and super-
stition arrayed against liberty civil and religious, social
order, and the solemnly recorded judgment of the Cortes of
the kingdom. Without throwing aside all regard for the
faith of treaties, it is morally impossible that we should
longer continue indolent and uninterested spectators of a
strife which threatens to become interminable, unless we

lnnzer aeitlons of the Spanish Liberals.
.They
evidently cannot de more than keep iheir. ground against
the Carlists, supported indic-ectly; as the
til•'el by Fhb gold of the Great Northern Powers.
%kith a weak and tottering Cabinet, an exhausted
Treasury, incompetent Generals, and an unpaid and tits-
coot cntsd army, Spain cannot, unaided, of :et her own de-
liverancO:

As our rOlitical ilelations witli Spain are likely to form,
pursuant to notice, the subject of a debate in the House
of Commons on Tuesday next, we beg to direct the atten-
tion of such as desire to see this question fairly stated in
all its bearings, to the S:quel of the Policy (!f Eligknd to-
wards Spain, published by the Messrs. IttuGwaY, and
which has just reached a second edition. The author of
this pamphlet, after a careful examination of all the facts
stated by every party with regard to Spain—alter a minute
review of all the incidents that have taken place in the
Peninsula, since the death of FERDINAND V I 1.--arrives at

the conclusion which M. TILLERS did three years ago—
namely, that without foreign intervention the pacification
of the Peninsula is hopeless. We are, and have always
been, of the same opinion. The Sun was the first
Journal in London, as the Debuts was the first in
Paris, to intreat the Governments of France and
England to send a force into Spain powerful enough
to put an end to the civil war in the course of a single
campaign. Our suggestion was assailed as preposterous by
superficial politicians of all parties. The answers of such
persons were—" Oh ! the Spaniards are jealous, and will
not accept co-operation"—" The Queen's Government only
requires a little time to apply the resources at its disposal,
and the insurgents will be scattered like chaff before the
wind"—" We have nothing to do with other people's quar-
rels"—" Look at the expense"—and other observations
equally sage, and as little to the purpose. Well, what has
happened ? Are we gainers by our neutral policy? Are
we likely to gain by it, in the event of the Spanish quarrel
becoming an European contest, in which we may be called
upon to figure as principals ? For a trifling expense we
might have given repose to the Peninsula—put an end to
the useless effusion of rivers of innocent blood—and at the
same time secured to our merchants commercial advan-
tages more than adequate to remunerate us for such a sa-
crifice. Perhaps it may not be yet too late to retrieve our

errors. Lord ELIOT'S motion will afford the Government
an opportunity of reconsidering the evils of which the
Spanish non-intervention system of England and France
has been so fertile a source, which we trust will not be
thrown away upon the Noble Foreign Secretary.

The Middlesex Sages, BEAUMONT, HANSLER, HALS
WELL, StarrsoN, ai. Co., agreed, yesterday, so says the
report in the Advertiser, to the last seven of the resolutions
touching sellers and drinkers of Beer, and are to discuss
them on a future day. It has generally bean thought that
legislating by proxy—that is giving a vote before hand,
and deputing somebody else to hear the arguments—is not
a rem irkably natural method of transacting business; but the
Magistrates surpass the Peers as they ought in absurdity,
lest their Lordships should have no foil, and adopt
resolutions before discussing them. We live, however, in
an age of improvement, and no doubt the gentlemen who
meet at Clerkenwell have discovered some steam-engine
method of law-making, which will enable them to beat
LYCURGUS, SOLON, and Mos Es. The first resolution—
that keeping open public-houses for the sale ofintoxicating
liquors encouragos drunkenness, was properly carried—as
if more were sold probably less would be drunk—but
the second resolution, declaring that the public re-
quires houses of refreshment, was lost. The Ma-
gistrates appear to say that the public may get
drunk, but must not have refreshment. The third
resolution, declaring that the publicans require protection
Against swindlers, was rejected; for why should those whose
sale of intoxicating liquors encourages drunkenness be pro-
tected? Worthless men ! wise Magistrates ! may you reign
fur ever over the beer-sellers and beer•drinkers of the me-
tropolis ; so shall there be drunkenness and no refreshment
—swindling and no punishment.

The French Journals of Monday, which we did not re-
ceive yesterday, and those of Tuesday, have reached us
this morning. Their contents arc unimportant. The
struggle of parties has terminated for the present in the
Chambers, and out of doors the Ministers are rather popular
than otherwise. Nothing is now talked of but the making and
expense of railways, which begin to intersect France in every
direction. We have advices from Madrid to the Etth inst.
which represent the capital as comparatively tranquil.
ORAA had given orders for the trial of the Carlist Chief,
TALLADA, by a court-marti,d, for the wilful murder of his
prisoners. The guilt of the accused was so notorious, that
his condemnation may be considered as certain. The follow-
ing is the only news received from the Spanish frontier
A letter from Logrono, of the 13th, says :—" A courier
from Lodosa informs us, that the Carlists taking advantage
of the absence of Leon el Conde, have passed the Ebro with
20 battalions and 19 squadrons. The two divisions of Lo-
grono and Haro march this moment in the direction of Ter-
hollia ( Castille), to anticipate the Carlists, and prevent their
penetrating into the mountains of Forca, and the province of
Burgos. Espartera will take the command of these two divi-
sions. Lest Don Carlos should profit by this movement to
ewer the Asturias, General Latre has received orders to
manceuvre towards Villarcayo. The Carlists have been driven
to this operation by despair; the provinces cannot afford them
subsistence, and they will probably leave but a small garrison
at Estella. Unhappily our Generals do not profit by the ar
dour of our troops, who wish to fight, but weary them with
useless marches and countermarches; but lately they were
made to march nineteen leagues in twenty four hours, without
any results. It is said that Villareal is in favour again.._

Brussels and German Papers of the latest dates have
been received this morning. The latter contain no news.
From the former we copy the following important para-
graph :

BRUSSELS, MARen 19.—The Procureur gives the following
extract of a letter from the Hague, dated March 16 :—" It is
affirmed that his Majesty, King William, has at length deter-
mined to sign the twenty-four articles; that M. Dedel has re-
ceived-orders to that effect ; that a communication has been
made to the Chamber on the subject, in a secret sitting ; and
that some of the Foreign Ministers, the most interested in the
question, have been informed by the Minister for Foreign
Affairs.

This important news will doubtless soon become public—it
is already spread in the well-informed circles ; all proves that
it is not an idle rumour, and that the separation of Belgium is
going to be at length recognised."

Napoleon used to say that often the fate of battles,
and even of empires themselves, depends d'un rien. Such is
certainly true. He himself might have lived and died a
sub-lieutenant, which he was for six years, if fate had not willed
it otherwise. One happy event, or one fortunate discovery,
may cause the world to resound with the name of a private
iniividual. We have at present a man WllO3O reputation within
a few months has started up, and has burst forth into an asto-
nishing degree of popularity; he has already, we are told, re-
fused ten thousand pounds for his name and his secret. We
allude to Holloway, of Universal Family Ointment celebrity.
We give his address to our readers-13, Broad-street Build-
ings, City, as those who are afflicted with external diseases,
as ulcerated cancer, bad legs, ulcers, wounds, tumours, burns,
scalds, or indolent skin diseases, will no doubt find great re-
lief from his remedy. Most Chemists keep it throughout the
kingdom.
