Paper.
An Englishman has lately arrived at I,Vurzburg, (in
Bavaria) with the intention of purchasing 1,500 live foxes, to
convey them to England. He is said to have received this
commission from some lovers of the chase in his country.
The Earl of Sheffield, Lord Alvanley, Lord and
Lady Newark and Family, Count Shevaloff, Col. Gibbs, Capt.
Morton, and other persons of distinction, took their departure
for Antwerp yesterday in the General Steam Navigation Cora-
pativ'a Steam Ship Soho.
ItOYAL SPORTS.—Louis the Eleventh ordered the
Abbot of Baigne, a wan of great wit, and who had a knack at
inventing new musical instruments, to get him a concert of
swiees' voices, thinking it impossible. The Abbot accordingly
mustered up a number of hogs of several ages, and placed them
under a pavilion covered with velvet (before which he had a
sound-board, painted, with a certain number of keys), thus
making an organ ; and as he played on the keys with little
spikes which pricked the hogs, he made them cry in such tune
aad concert as highly delighted the King and his Court.
The crops in Caithness of all kinds, never looked
better than they do this year, and the price of cattle is very
high, in consequence of so many being sent so the London
market, partly by steamers, and partly by vessels carrying flag-
stones for pavement, which has become a great and prosperous
trade of late.
Mr. Shaman Crawford, in his letter to Mr. O'Con-
nell, complains that the interests of the humblest class of his
countrymen have been neglected—that having the power Mr.
O'Connell has neglected to employ means for improving their
condition. In another part of his letter he says—" I com-
plain, Sir, that the interests of the poor man—l mean the
mass of the community—have been hitherto totally and un-
justly disregarded ; that the poor have been made use of for
the purposes of promoting the objects of the higher classes—
of creating political power for their superiors—and that no
return has been made to them in any shape or form. . . .
I do not blame the Government ; I respectfully state you have
the power. If you do not make the demands which ought to
be made on her part—if you do not insist upon these demands
—if you agree to compromises of her claims—on you, Sir, the
responsibility rests, and not upon the Government. The peo-
ple are willing to back you ; they are willing to endure any
sufferings at your bidding. The endurance would be short,
the victory would be certain—the victory, not by violence, but
by constitutional means. You have brought your country to
the threshhold of British freedom and British rights ; nothing
but the retreat of her leader can prevent Ireland mounting
her banner alongside of the standard of England."
THIEVES AT THE COLOSSEUM. Several rob-
beries have recently, in spite of every precaution which could
be thought of, taken place at the Colosseum, and on Friday
information was forwarded to the various police-offices, setting
forth that a few days ago a handsome bronze medallion, the
face of the Duke of Wellington, in a small black frame, and
glazed, was stolen from the saloon of arts at the above-named
place. A reward has been offered for its recovery.
On Tuesday afternoon, about three o'clock, much
alarm and uneasiness was excited in the New-road, near the
Regent's-park, by a gentleman who was seen seated in a
handsome gig with a young lady by his side ; the former,
evidently in a state of intoxication, was driving along at a
reckless rate, notwithstanding the shrieks of the young lady,
who appeared much terrified. After many persons had nar-
rowly escaped being run over, the gig at length was over-
turned by coming in violent contact with a cart. Both the
lady and gentleman were precipitated into the road, the for-
mer under the cart wheel, which passed partly over her,
bruising her person in a most serious manner, but the latter,
through whose culpability the accident occurred, fortunately
escaped with a few bruises. The young lady was lifted from
the ground, and carried in a state of insensibility to the near-
est house, where surgical assistance was procured, when it was
found that some of her ribs were fractured, and it was feared
that she had received serious, if not fatal, internal injuries.
The gentleman was questioned as to who he was, when he
replied that he lived at St. John's-wood, that the young lady
was his niece, but he refused to give his name. He was, to-
gether with the horse and chaise, ultimately consigned into the
bands of two policemen of the S division.

MADRID.

JULY 19.—The ministry reckon the returns of seventeen
provinces in their favour at present. Among these are
Segovia, Cuencla, Guadaluara, Valladolid, Palencia, Avila,
Valencia, Leon, Cordova, Almeria, Seville. As the elec-
toral law here, in imitation of the French, requires that a
candidate shall be returned by an absolute majority of the
electors, that is more than half their number, it will happen
in many parts that second elections will become necessary
with reference to those candidates who are not supported
by more than half. This re-election applies only to the
particular candidates so circumstar.ced.
The military news is by no means satisfactory. Cordova
returned to Vittoria on the 13th. Private letters from
that quarter state that the inhabitants are quite tired of
having to support so many troops. In Madrid we have
not the slightest intimation of the plans of the commander-
in-chief. His blockade system seems to have turned out
an utter failure, and as yet he has not had time to organise
another. His best friends are getting impatient at his in-

action.
The rebel force under Don Basilio, who entered Soria
lately, have left that province, taking the direction of Alma-
zan ; from which place to San Ildefonso, where the Court
is now located, there is a chain of mountains.
At San Ildefonso there are 1,200 troops belonging to the
Royal Guards, the best corps in the service. As Don
Basilio has at least 1,000 infantry and 200 horse with him,
it has not been thought advisable to leave the Court with so
small a force ; and yesterday a column of 1,500 1,000 of
whom belong to the Queen's own regiment of rifles, left
Madrid, taking the (Election of Siguenza and Medinaceli.
From Galicia there is no recent intelligence. From
Valencia it appears that Cabrera was threatening Murvie-
dro, a place of great force, commanding the whole plain in
which the city of Valencia is situated. Banos has been
again visited by the rebels : and Cuenca, it appears, has
also been the scene of the atrocities of a numerous force of
the Carlist .banditti. It is said that the Queen's General,
Lopez, has been surprised by this party ; but this wants
confirmation.
Mr. Villiers will leave Madrid for La Granja on Friday
next. All persons not compelled by their occupations or
other ties to remain here, take their departure for the more
temperate atmosphere of San Ildefonso at this time of the
year. The thermometer this day at five o'clock p.m. was
at 108 Fahrenheit in the shade ; at twelve o'clock it was at
98 ; and at seven in the morning 84.
The Nacional of this evening, states that the courier
which left Gerona for Figueras, in Catalonia, lately, al-
though escorted by sixty National Guards, was attacked in
the neighbourhood of the latter place, by 400 Carlists.
The Nationals retreated to a house, in which they defended
themselves with the utmost intrepidity for some time, but
the miscreants who besieged them having set fire to the
building, the) were obliged to sally out, when they 'were all
taken, and presently put to death by having their throats
cut. This mode of inflicting death is becoming a favourite
practice with the barbarians. It has been remarked that
the Governor of Figueras, who has a strong garrison- in the
impregnable fortress which he commands, did not move, as
he might have done, to the relief of the attacked party.
The Government has announced through the Gazette
that the Post-office courier who left the capital for Anda-
lusia on the 15th was stopped on the 17th by the rebel
Pallitos, at the head of 25 men, who broke open his mail
bags, setting fire to the whole correspondence, with the
exception of that directed to Cadiz and Seville, which
they carried away with them. The couriers from Sanzan-
der and Bilboa have been frequently stopped of late, and
travelling generally upon the roads of Spain is becoming
more dangerous every day.
At Burgos, on the 13th, was shot Domingo Dominiquez,
a robber of the first order, who had kept the inhabitants
in so much terror by his frequent assassinations and rob-
beries that they scarcely dared to go the distance of a
stone's throw from the gates of the town, excepting in nu-
merous parties, well armed. He commanded a party of
freebooters in the name of Charles the Fifth.
