The &mend, however, has been so limited during the
past week, that first class local bills have been sold at

posed of at Is. 11d. Buyers look for this latter rate fur
first-class credits on the arrival of the China steamer,

CLIRKENWELL.

Yesterday, Captain Il eery Bonham Shepherd, a mili-
tary officer in the East Italia Company's service, was
brought up in the custody of John Hardy, 2u5 5, on a
warrant, and placed before Mr. Combe, charged on the
oath of Mrs. Helen Muir, wife of Captain John M.
Winter Muir, a naval officer in the same company'
service, h,r that, in c.-ns, (pence of a letter written and
signed by the said Henry coahatn Shepherd to her Said
husband, with intent to incite him to fight a duel with
him ; ard further, that in consozpn nee of a meeting in
a street i❑ Islington between her husband and the said
nry Bonham Shepherd, at w►bich she was present, and
wherein the latter made reference to the said leter,
which was pre%i usly kept by her from the knowiFdge
of h,r husband, and also he then cilled her husband a
b!ackguarit and coward, she was apprehensive that a.
duel would tike place between their, and she gave the
information to prevent such bryach of the peace.
The dispute which gave rise to this unpleasant affair,
originated from a priv•-te family matter, the particulars
of which did not transpire in court.
Captain Shepherd, it appears, is brother-in-law of
Captain bZ sir.
Mr. COMBE ordered that warrants for the immediate
apprehension of the parties should be made out; and,
being placed in the hands of Hardy, the officer, early in
the marring he brought up Captain Moir from his resi
dence, No. '26, Ric, mond row, Islington, when be was
ordered to find bail, himself in 2001. and two sureties in
1001. etch, which he instantly procured, and was
liberated.

Captain Shepherd, however, was not at his residence,
No. 31, Shepp, rton-cottager, Islington, but the officer
captured him in the course of the day at the Jerusalem
Coffee-house, City, and brought him to the Court, when
he was ordered to put i❑ bail to the same amount. Be
was detained until nearly the hour of closing the Court,
when two ladies entered and became Ins bail, and he
was liberated.

DENM tRK.

COPENHAGEN, JUNE 21.—The Berlinger Zeitung
publishes the regulations of the Minister of Finance
relative to the precautionary measures and quarantine
regulations which are to be observed on the arrival
of the Russian fleet. Not only must all passengers
coming by the various steamers from Germany per-
form quarantine at Klampenberg, but all quarantine
commissioners are charged by the Minister of Fi-
nance to exert the utmost vigilance that no commu-
nication whatever takes place between the Russian
ships of the line and the inhabitants on shore until
the commander shall have made a declaration, in
a given form, that his vessel and crew have had
no communication whatever, for five days,
with any town or locality infested by the
cholera. Vessels and craft of every kind are forbidden
to have any communication with the Russian fleet
without carrying on board with them an authorised
person, who shall take care that no Russian ship be
approached before the commander of the same shall
have made the requirsd declaration respecting the
health of his ship's company.
The Prussian steamer the Oder, which brought the
dispatches of the Chamberlain RUDTZ from Berlin,
via Stralsund, has gone off again, probably with the
return dispatches. The state of things was still the
same at Aarhuus on the 17th. This i* all that is
known respecting the relations between Prussia and
Denmark.

HADERSLEBEN, JUNE 22.—We have at length re-
ceived intelligence of the advance of the troops of the
empire in Jutland. The right wing, composed of
Prussians, commenced their march a few days since;
the left wing, consisting of Bavarians, broke up from
Scanderborg, and will go round by the west of
Aarhuus to Randers. A subsequent notice states,
that the Bavarians have taken possession of Aarhuus,
and that the Prussians are in Renders. Report says
that the Danes have landed in Jutland (at Verde)
and intend taking the direction of Kolding. In
Fredericia everything is in activity, and it is (evident
the German troops will very readily forego their re-
solve of taking that fortress.
FLENSBURG, JUNE 22.—Twenty Russian ships are
reported to have been seen at the mouth of the har-
bour this morning, and several of the crews (how
many is not stated) were either landed or attempted
to land at Angela. Later in the day about forty
ships were seen from the Dupplen batteries steering
northwards. This apparition caused a lively commo-
tion among the men in the batteries. The Borsenhalle
affirms that they cannot have formed a part
of the Russian fl*.t, since it appears from the
steam-boat report that on the 15th and 16th it was
still at Dagoe, and below Jutland, and the stiff west
winds which have prevailed for some days would
make their appearance in the waters of Schleswig
very problematical, and supposes they may be the live
sail and two steamers vs hick preceded the fleet, and
which reached Copenhagen some days since. A.
❑otice from Apearade of the 221, states that in conse-
quence of the report of the appearance of 30 war
ships at Alsen, several expresses have been sent off to
the commanders of the Germ,in tro,,ps.

DUBLIN, WEDNESDAY.—AIIuding to the trials at the
quarter sessions of Caittebar, which terminated onSatur-
thy last, the Mayo Coast,talon observes—
" Boys—little creatures who were only tall enough to
see over the rail of the dock—were tried for petty
larcenies of food to which they had been driven by
the pangs of hunger. They almost all pleaded
guilty,' and in the first instance prayed and en,
treated of the Court to transport them, as they had
no means of existence, and shoull starve before the
poor-law would aid them; and when they frequently
fuund that the humane assistant-barrister hesitated as to
what amount of punishment he should inflict after
they had already undergone a sufficiently long impri-
sonment for the offence, they endeavoured to coerce the
Court to pass a sentence of transportation, by stating
tbat if sent back to prison they would commit some
great crime which would insure their being expatriated.
During one of these trials a policeman proved that he
had found several of the parties eating seaweed."
THE IRISH REPRESENTATIVE PEERAGE —Lord Kil-
maine has teen chosen by a majority of votes to be the
Peer to sit in the House of Lords in the Muni of the
late Earl of Gosfurd.

COMMUNICATION WITH ENGLAND.—The ever-chang-
ing Post-office authorities are about to make another
alteration in the dispatch of the mails from Kingstown
to Holyhead. It is arranged that, on arid atter the
sth of July the morning packet will leave Kingston at
half-past twelve, instead of five midutes after at eleven
as at present; and the evening boat will be dispatched at
half-past seven instead of half-past six. By the time the
public are familiarised with these arrangements it is more
than probable than the whole system of tranmission of
letters and correspondtnce will undergo another change,
and, if possible, for the less convenience of the parties
most interesied.

the ground like a hunted deer, and coming in at the
close almost as fresh as when he started. Thomas Black,
who won the first heat, also ran very well.
'To -the foot-race succeeded archery at eighty yards,
and alter that came" putting the stone," w hich was con-
ducted in precisely the same manner as throwing the
hammer—the competitors being divided into two par-
ties, and the two best of each party being appointed to
contend for the prizes to-day. The names of the suc-
cessful men, and the distances to which they put the
stone, which weighed 201 b., are as follows:—
feet. inches.
Alexander M'Hardy 32 5
Thomas Menzies ~. 32 2
Peter Haggitt „. 31 4
John Fraser ... . 30 6
The two first named are admirable putters of the stone,
and the struggle between them to day will be a close and
interesting one. The game is exceedingly popular in
Scotland, each village having its putting-stone, to prac-
tise at which the young men turn out in the long sum-
mer evenings, while to fail in acquiring a certain
amount of efficiency in its use is a serious disgrace.
This part of the proceedings was also varied by the
playing of pibrochs, and the dancing of the reel of Tul
loch—performances which in their turn drew down loud
applause.
The practice of archery at 60 yards' distance succeeded,
followed up by broad sword play and stick practice.
These last were very interesting exhibitions, and created
the greatest interest. They took
place on the platform
which the dancers had quitted a short time previously,
and a variety of circumstances contributed to impart to
them a peculiar character. Of these the principal was,
that the prizes had drawn together an unusual number of
competitors, remarkable for their great skill in the use of
their weapons. The Household troops contributed, as might
have been expected, a largo proportion of those who
came forward. The Royal Artillery also furnished some
excellent fencers. There was a good deal of amnsenaent
created by the playful way in which several of the men
handled their weapons, and by the mock gravity with
which one of them in particular shook his antagonist
by the hand Lefore commencing, as if he intended
to kill him the next moment. Corporal Tuchy, of
the Royal Artillery, Corporal Sutton, of the Ist
Life Guards, and others, greatly distinguished
themselves in this division of the games exhibited. At
the close, Corporal-Major Lambert, of the Ist Life
Guards, showed an amount of dexterity and skill in
broadsword play which astonished and delighted all who
witnessed it,
At six o'cleck the proceedings terminated. The pro-
gramme will be proceeded with to-day at the point
where the amusements were suspended, and it is confi-
dently expected that her Majesty will honour the games
with her presence.

DISSOLUTION OF THE GERMAN PARLIA

AIENT.

Accounts from Stuttgard of the 16th state that the
German Parliament was on that day dissolved by
force.

BADEN AND THE PALATINATE.
The insurgents of Baden have distributed among
the French troops on the frontier numerous copies of
a proclamation running thus :

" The People of the Palatinate to the National Guard
and Army of France.

" The Croats and Cossalks are attacking the Palati-
nate and the Puchy of Baden. From the Baltic Sea
to the foot of the Alps a formidable army is marching
against the French Republic. It would be an eternal
shame to the people and army of France if they
should any longer suffer political liberticide, the most
perfidious that has ever been seen the policy
of their Government, which, faithless to the constitu-
tion, conspires openly a ith our tyrants. May the real
French people soon drive out these wretched cowards;
and may the army, whose only guide is honour, place it-
self forward to cause the constitution to be respected.
You—Boichot, Rattier, and Commissaire—worthy re-
presentatives of the French army in the Legislative As-
sembly, do you not hear the cry of alarm raised by the
German democracy, which calls to you for aid against
the eternal enemies of liberty? Generous representa-
tives, protest resolutely against the unheard-of insult of
those who are betraying you! Brave soldiers, prctest
its
liberty a Government which tears from Europe
liberty! To arms, citizens!—the Cossacks are at your
doors!"

AUSTRIA.

The Constitutionellesßiatt aus Bohmen says that
of the 68,000 Russians encamped in the circle of
Wadowice, those lying at Jorclanow have left, via
Neumarkt, for Hungary, and have already their
outposts in Kubin. The other portion, 26,000 men,
encamped at Mystenice, and extending over a tract
reaching to Bothnia, are expecting reinforcements of
16,000 men, infantry and artillery. General SASS is
on Hungarian ground, according to the above paper.
The Hungarians have defeated the Austrians on
the right bank of the Danube, and have taken the
Austrian General Wrss prisoner.

EXETER HALL.

A performance of Mendelssohn's oratorio, ElUcsh,
took place last night, under the direction of Mr. Hullab.
The principal vocalists were Misses Lucombe and Dea-
kin, Mrs. Noble, Messrs. Lockey, Benson, Seguin, Herr
Pischek, and Mrs. Alfred Shaw, her first appearance for
three years. Mr. Willy led the orchestra, which was
complete and efficient. The chorus consisted of the
members of Mr. 13allith's upper singing school. The
general performance of Mendelssohn's celebrated work
was very correct and effective. Mr. Hullah had evi-
dently well studied the score, and allowed no point o!
importance to escape. The chorus " Thanks be to God,"
was admirably snug, and received an encore, a compli-
ment which was also bestowed on the quartet, " Cast
thy burden Upon the Lord,". and the unaccompanied
trio, " Lift thine eyes to the Mountain." The reap-
pearance of Mrs. Alfred Shaw, who was warmly
welcomed, was an event of considerable interest.
In the important quality of musical declamation,
which so few singers possess in perfection, this
esteemed artist has lost none of her excellence, but the
uncertainty of her intonation frequently mars her best
efforts, and this was observable in several of the recita-
tives and airs, which, as far as expression went, were ad-
mirable, but failed of effect for the reason assigned. Herr
Pischek sang the musio of Elijah for the first time on
this occasion, and the impression he created was highly
favourable, more especially in the pathetic air, " It is
enough, U Lord," which he sang with the truest ex-
pression. The other noticeable features of the solo vocal
performances were the air, " Hear ye, Israel," given with
great spirit and energy by Miss Lucombe; the two tenor
songs of Mr. Lockey, in which he has so often been de-
servedly praised; the air, " For the mountains," admi-
rably sung by Herr Yischek, the oboe obligato part being
cleverly played by Mr. Nicholson, whose tone blended
happily with the voice of the singer, and the two choruses,
" Baal, we ery to thee," and " He, watching over Israel,"
in the last of which the gradations of light and shade
were ably and effectively managed. Miss Deakin, an
improving singer, was very serviceable in some of the
quartets and concerted pieces. The performance on the
whole gave the utmost satisfaction.

W ORSHIP. STREET.

Joseph Johnson Coload, alias Smith, and William Hall
CUM, alias Clarke, alias hilt, who stood charged with
having obtained goods by means of fraudulent repre-
sentations, to the amount of 1561. 13a., from Mr. Henry
Dymond, whdesale gut!a percha boot and shoe manu-
facturer, in Re,..;ent-street, City-road; and also with hav-
ing uttered two forged bills of exchange, for 211. 7s. and
221. Bs., in part payment of the same, were placed at the
bar, before Mr. Arnold, for further examination.

In cunstqtr-rice of the publicity which had been given
to the fe,et of their epprehenidon, a large number of
tradesmen and other persons, who had had dealings with
tho prisoners, were in attendance to prefer charges
against them.

—Further evidence having been given,
Sergeant Dutois said that, since the last examination
he had received a letter f.om Mr. Hodge, deputy con-
stable of Wolverhampton, apprising him that he held a
warrant for the apprehension of the prisoner Brown, who
had absconded from that place about two years since,
after defrauding tradesmen to the extent of nearly 300/ ;
and he was also in communication with various other
firms in town who bad promised to attend on a future
dly and substantiate other charges, embracing both fraud
and forgery, against both prisoners.
The prisoners, who were advised by Mr. Vann and
another solicitor who appeared on their behalf to reserve
their defence, were accordingly remanded for a week.

EAST INDIA HOUSE.

A Quarterly General Court of Proprietors was held
yesterday; Sir Alexander Gelloway in the chair.
The minutes of former meetings having been read and
confirmed,
The CHAIRMAN stated that the payment of the half-
yearly dividend upon the Company's stock would be
made upon the 6th of July.
Mr. TWINING, the chairman of the by-laws committee,
brought up the usual report, and the committee were
then re-elected.
Mr. P. GORDON suggested that it would be desirable
to revert to the old custom of electing the members of
the by-laws committee by ballot.

the ground like a bunted deer, and coming in at the'
close almost as fresh as when he started. Thomas Black,
who won the first heat, also ran very well.
To the foot-rade succeeded archery at eighty yards,
and alter that came " putting the stone," which was con-
ducted in precisely the same manner as throwing the
hammer—the competitors being divided into two par-
ties, and the two best of each party being appointed to
contend for the prizes to-day. The names of the suc-
cessful men, and the distances to which they put the
stone, which weighed 201 b., are as follows:—
feet. inches.

The two first named are admirable putters of the stone,
and the struggle between them to day will be a close and
interesting one. The game is exceedingly popular in
Scotland, each village having its putting-stone, to prac-
tise at which the young men turn out in the long sum-
mer evenings, while to fail in acquiring a certain
amount of efficiency in its use is a serious disgrace.
This part of the proceedings was also varied by the
playing of pibrochs, and the dancing of the reel of Tul
loch—performance s which in their turn drew down loud
applause.
The practice of archery at 60 yards' distance succeeded,
followed up by broad sword play and stiek practice.
These last were very interesting exhibitions, and created
the greatest interest. They took place on the platform
which the dancers had quitted a short time previously,
and a variety of circumstances contributed to impart to
them a peculiar character. Of these the principal was,
that the prizes had drawn together an unusual number of
competitors, remarkable for their great skill in the use of
their weapons. The Household troops contributed, as might
have been expected, a large proportion of those who
came forward. The Royal Artillery also furnished some
excellent fencers. There was a good deal of amusement
created by the playful way in which several of the men
handled their weapons, and by the mock gravity with
which one of them in particular shook his antagonist
by the hand before commencing, as if he intended
to kill him the next moment. Corporal Tuchy, of
the Royal Artillery, Corporal Sutton, of the Ist
Life Guards, and others, greatly distinguished
themselves in this division of the games exhibited. At
the close, Corporal-Major Lambert, of the Ist Life
Guards, showed an amount of dexterity and skill in
broadsword play which astonished and delighted all who
witnesaed it,

At six o'clock the proceedings terminated. The pro-
gramme will be proceeded with today at the point
where the amusements were suspended, and it is confi-
dently expected that hor Majesty will honour the games
with her presence.

DISSOLUTION OF T4E GERMAN PARMA.

MENT.

Accounts from Stuttgard of the 16th state that the
German Parliament was on that day dissolved by
force.

BADEN AND THE PALATINATE.
The insurgents of Baden have distributed among
the French troops on the frontier numerous copies of
a proclamation running thus :

" The People of the Palatinate to the National Guard
and Army of France.
" The Croats and Cossacks are attacking the Palati-
nate and the Duchy of Baden. From the Baltic Sea
to the foot of the Alps a formidable army is marching
against the French Republic. It would be an eternal
shame to the people and army of France if they
should any longer suffer political liberticide, the most
perfidious that has ever been seen the policy
of their Government, which, faithless to the constitu-
tion, conspires openly with our tyrants. May the real
French people soon drive out these wretched cowards;
and may the army, whose only guide is honour, place it-
self forward to cause the constitution to be respected.
You—Boichot, Rattier, and Commissaire—worthy re.
presentatives of the French army in the Legislative As-
sembly, do you not hear the cry of alarm raised by the
German democracy, which calls to you for aid against
the eternal enemies of liberty? Generous representa-
tives, protest resolutely against the unheard-of insult of
those who are betraying you! Brave soldiers, protect
against a Government which tears from Europe its
liberty! To arms, citizens!—the Cossacks are at your
doors!"

THE SUN, LON 00N, THUR

EXETER HALL.

_
A performance of Mendelssohn's oratorio, Elijah,
took place last night, undsr the direction of Mr. Hullah.
The principal vocali.ts were Misses Lucombe and Dea-
kin, Mrs. Noble, Messrs. Lockey, Benson, Seguin, Herr
Pischek, and Mrs. Alfred Shaw, her first appearance for
three years. Mr. Willy led the orchestra, which was
complete and efficient. The chorus consisted of the
members of Mr. Hullab's upper singing school. The
general performance of Mendelssohn's celebrated work
was very correct and effective. Mr. Hullah had evi-
dently well studied the score, and allowed no point o!
importance to escape. The chorus " Thanks be to God,"
was admirably suu, and received an encore, a compli-
ment which was also bestowed on the quartet, " Cast
thy burden upon the Lord,". and the unaccompanied
trio, " Lift thine eyes to the Mountain." The reap-
pearance of Mrs. Alfred Shaw, who was warmly
welcomed, was an event of considerable interest.
In the important quality of musical declamation,
which so tew singers possess in perfection, this
esteemed artist has lost none of her excellence, but the
uncertainty of her intonation frequently mars her best
efforts, and this was observable in several of the recita-
tives and airs, which, as far as expression went, were ad-
mirable, but failed of effect for the reason assigned. Herr
Pisehek sang the music of Elijah for the first time os.
this occasion, and the impression he created was highly
favourable, more especially in the pathetic air, " It is
enough, 0 Lord," which Mt sang with the truest ox-
i press:on. The other noticeable features of the solo vocal
performances were the air, " Hear ye, Israel," given with
great spirit and energy by Miss Lucombe; the two tenor
songs of Mr. Lockey, in which he has so often been de-
servedly praised; the air, " For the mountains," admi-
rably sung by Herr Pischelt, the oboe obligate part being
cleverly played by Mr. Nicholson, whose tone blended
happily with the voice of the singer, and the two choruses,
" Baal, we cry to thee," and " lie, watching over Israel,"
in the last of which the gradations of light and shade
were ably and effectively managed. Miss Deakin, an
improving singer, was very serviceable in some of the
quartets and concerted pieces. The performance on the
whole gave the utmost satisfaction.

FRANCE.

The funeral service to the memory of the late
Marshal Bugeaud was celebrated with great pomp at
10 o'clock on Tuesday morning in the Church of St.
Louis of the Invalides. A grand labarum, ornamented
with silver, was placed behind the altar. The Mar-
shal's escutcheon was represented at the four cor-
ners. It was of light blue, with a sword crossed
on a cannon. The grand catafalque was placed in
the centre of the church, beneath a magnificent
canopy. On a level with the foreign flags which
decorate the church were placed shields, on which
were inscribed, to the right, "Isly, Oran, Moustier,
Llobregat, Burgos, Yelat, Tortoso, Lerida ;" and on
the left, " Tariffa, Tarragona, Castille, \Vilna, Tafna,
Moustier, Tlemeen, Isly."
The President of the Republic, the Ministers,
the Members of the Legislative Assembly, the Mar-
shals of France, the Generals commanding in Paris,
with the officers of their staff, and the corporate
bodies, were present at the ceremony. The
troops under arms around the building, and
in its vicinity, could not haves been less than
forty thousi.nd men The Archbishop of Paris
pronounced the absolution. The body of the Marshal
had been placed previous to the ceremony, in a
chapelle ardente, prepared for the purpose in the
lower part of the church to the right. From the
moment the service began until it was ter-
minated, the Invalides and the Ecole
continued to fire minute guns. Military bands also
played outside the building. The façade of the In-
valides was covered with black cloth, and also dis-
played the escutcheon of the deceased Marshal. The
troops stood with their arms reversed in sign of
mourning; the drums of the foremost ranks were
muffled ; the hilts of the officers' swords were covered
with crape, as also the colours of the regiments. The
officers of those corps that had served under the com-
mand of the Marshal in Africa wore crape on the
arm ; and an expression of profound grief was observ-
able on the countenances that bore the strong impress
of an African sun.

A great number of officers of the National Guards
were present ; and the concourse was great of pri-
vate citinens along the quay and the neighbour-
hood of the Invalides. The ceremony was over at
half past eleven o'clock, and the troops were on the
way to their quarters before 12 o'clock. No incident
of importance occurred during the ceremony.
M. Kalkbrenner, the musical composer, died a few
days ago at Encehein (near Paris) from cholera.

a third, and joking with a fourth, he would in one night
write the outline of eight or tea charming melodies, in
some instances even scoring them, and this surrounded
by all the noise which rarely fails to bo attendant on the
conviviality of a few "choice spirits" collected together.

AUSTRIA.

The Constitutionalles Blatt aus Bolivian says that
of the 68,000 Russians encamped in the circle of
Wadowice, those lying at Jordanow have left, via
Neumarkt, for Hungary, and have already their
outposts in Kubin. The other portion, 26,000 men,
encamped at Alystenice, and extending over a tract
reaching to Bochnia, are expecting reinforcements of
16,000 men, infantry and artillery. General SASS is
on Hungarian ground, according to the above paper.
The Hungarians have defeated the Austrians on
the right bank of the Danube, and have taken the
Austrian General Wrss prisoner.

TEUI HAGUE, JUNE 19.--AN NIVEBIAUY OF THE BAT-
TLE or WATERLoo.—The Grand Parade which was
held yesterday on the Maliebaan, in celebration of the
glorious victory, was a splendid sight. The day was
uncommonly fine, and there was a large concourse of
spectators, among whom were many strangers. The
bearing of the troops, and the precision
with which they performed their various military,
manceavres was admirable ; the rapidity of the artil-
lery and cavalry excited universal applause.
In the afternoon an entertainment was given to
the soldiers in the square in front of the barracks.
The place was tastefully decorated with flags, and the
bands of the Grenadiers and Jagers, which played
throughout the day, added much to the animation of
the scene.

The Staff and other officers of rank were present
at the entertainment, and a very numerous assembly
of spectators manifested their satisfaction at the pro-
ceedings. The 18th of June will long be remem-
bered with heartfelt gratitude.
In the sitting of the Second Chamber a Royal
resolution was read, honourably dismissing Mr. G.
L. Band from his functions as Colonial Minister, and
appointing in his room Rear-Admiral Von den Boscb.
—Staats Courant, June 20.

According to intelligence from Leyden, his Ma-
jesty has been graciously pleased to issue an order
for the release of a number of prisoners, both military
and burghers, now in various parts of the kingdom,
from the further term of their imprisonment.
The agricultural reports from the various provinces
are most satisfactory. The hay is good and abun-
dant., and vegetables and summer fruits. The pros-
pect of the harvest is most encouraging.
Tun CHOLERA.—In Rotterdam, where the cholera
had lately greatly increased, it has for some days past
been so decidedly on the decline that the medical
officers have pronounced that it is now going off.
At the Cholera lloipital at Dordrecht, the total
number admitted have been 147, of whom 91 died,
26 recovered, and 30 remain under treatment.

TEE HAGUE.-According to intelligence received
here from Constantinople, the Turkish Government
having been informed that for some time past pirates
had
.been seen in the Archipelago, and especially in
the waters of Samos, Me&lino, Stanchio, and Scio,
had adopted measure& for putting a stop to these
pirates. A frigate and three men of war are to sail
immediately from the h rbour of Constantinople.—

FREEMASONS" QUARTERLY REVIEW.
We regret to learn from the address to the Alaso-
nic craft, with which the present number opens, that
Brother Robert Thomas Crucefix is about to retire
from public duty in Masonry. His assistance, which
could at all times be but ill spared, is now of more
importance to the well-being of the craft than ever,
and we hope that he will be induced to reconsider his
determination, and at all events to postpone for the
present his contemplated retirement from public duty
in Masonry. In addition to a full and ample chronicle
of .Masonic intelligence, the present number contains
many papers of great interest to the general reader,
such, for instance,' as the account of Freemasonry in
Turkey, Persia, and Japan. The circumstance of
masonry existing in the latter country would seem to
point out the propriety of employing none but mem-
bers of the craft in any expedition which it may be
deemed expedient to send to the " tiled lodge" of the
world. If they cannot " work their way," no one
can. This is an excellent number of the Freemasons'
Quarterly.

THE BRITISH, POLITICAL, COMMER-
CIAL, ECCLESIASTICAL, and HISTO-
RICAL GAZETTEER; Travellingßoadßook,
and County Atlas.
The fourth part of this national publication has
just reached us, and fully sustains the high promise
of the preceding parts. It contains a well-executed
map of the county of Dorset, and is embellished with
a beautifully finished engraving of the Conway
Tubular Bridge on the Chester and Holyhead Rail-
way. The execution and accuracy of this engraving
could not be excelled ; indeed, as a mere picture, or
specimen of artistic excellence, it is worth more than
the enterprising proprietors receive for the whole part.
We rejoice to see they intend extending their labours
to Ireland and Scotland ; and we have no doubt these
portions of the British empire will contribute a
generous support to so useful and comprehensive an
undertaking. We cannot too earnestly bespeak
public support for this Gazetteer, more comprehen-
sive in design and more minute in detail than any
ever yet attempted, and which when completed will
form one of the most accurate, useful, and beautiful
histories of the United Kingdom hitherto published.
