QUEEN-SQUARE.

Yesterday a stout elderly Personage* named Sarah
Smith, of No. 2, Vine-s.reet, Hatton-garden, Whs
brought before Mr. WHITE, by inspector Tyrrell
Smith, of the G division, on the following charge :
•

The Rev. Dr. Ackland, of Stamford-street, Black-
friars, and several of the most respectable inhabitants,
attended before the Magistrates,, and it appeared
from their statements that latterly several robberies
had been committed in the areas of the street, and
plate and various articles had been stolen ; but no
person could be detected in the theft. It was at last
discovered that the prisoner was in the habit of call-
ing on the servant-maids in the street, to whom she
told the most flattering fortunes at a very low price;
and such a favourite had she become in Stamford-
street, that there was not a servant•rnaid in the
street whose fortune she had told but was in a very
short time to be richer and happier than her master
.or mistress. On account of the petty thefts which
were continually committed, some inquiry was set on
foot, and the servants confessed that the cunning
woman was a visiter at the different houses, when an
application was made to Mr. Smith, the Inspector,
and the prisoner'was apprehended.
Rebecca Luiely, savant to Mr. Hodgkinson, of
No. 48, Stamford-street,, from whose house a silver
spoOn'had lately been missed; Jane Marshall, servant
to the Rev. Dr. Ackland; and Ann Brown, servant to
Mr: Heitch, were here desired by their masters to
stand forward, which they did with a most reluctant
grate, and hung down their heads.
With some difficulty it was elicited that they had
paid Gd. each, when they were all promised rich
husbands in a few months, to have a large
and die haPpy ; but that for 2s. Gd. the prisouerpro-
mised to cast their nativities by the moon and stars,
which was sure to prove true, and they had agreed
to have their nativities cast for that sum.

Mr. Smith here produced a paper found on the
old impostor, purporting to be the future fate of Jane
Marshal!. It was as follows :—" You were born
under a conjunction of Ceres and Jupiter ; you are
therefore destined to be very fortunate, for Ceres,
presiding planet, being considered the Goddess of
Plenty by the ancient Mythologists,. and Jupiter the
distributor of wealth, you cannot, under such aus-
pices, fail to be happy and prosperous.
For know when bounteous stars to you decree
Health, wealth, long life, and great felicity.
In eight months and fourteen days from this time it
man of fair complexion will lead you to ihe Hymc•
neal altar as his bride—in his name you will find the
letters J. W. N. 0. He will be a most affectionate
husband, and very successful through life, and will
come into the possession of considerable property
agout seven years after your marriage. You will
be the parent of five sons and four daughters, all of
whom will be successful and prosperous; when they
attain a proper age they will marry greatly to their•
advantage. You will live to ace a numerous train
of grandchildren."
Rebecca Lusely's future fate was in the same
strain, only that she hal the happiness to be born
under the planet Juno, which was described as a
most noble planet, but she was not to be quite so
prolific as Jane Marshall, as she was only to be
blessed with four sons and two daughters.
The above details excited roars of laughter, to

the mo:tification of the poor girls, who had been so
grossly imposed upon, and who appeared to be
very reluctant to doubt the truth of the half-crown
prophecy.
The impostor, in her defence, said that she did
not think there was any harm in telling fortunes, and
hoped that the Magistrate would consider her case.
It appeared, however, that she was not able to
tell her own fortune, for Mr. WHITE said, that be
had considered the case, and committed her for
three months to the House of Correction.

CHOLERA N'loßßus.—We regret to hear
that, by the last accounts received, more than 40 vessels
had pa.sed the Sound with the green flag, which means an
unsound bill of health. _

The anode of proceeding with regard to the
steam-vessels, in connexion with the quarantine regula
lions for the prevention of cholera, is understood to be tai'-
that those arriving in the river front the Elbe will not be
subject to detention, provided they have a c'ean bill of
health f; otn Hamburg, and do not bring objectionable car-
goes. A medical man will go on board on their arrival at
Gravesend, when the qu trantine officers, and, the pas-
sengers having satisfactorily answered the questions which
will be put to them, the vessel will be allowed to proceed
immediately to London.
' A few days ago, as a boat from Appleeross,
Ross-shire, was returning home with a load of sea ware,
the crew, not knowing properly how to manage the
boat, suffered the sails to fly about in the wind, when the
boom struck a young woman on board, named ANN
MAcnoNALD, and killed her on the spot. Such was the
violence of the stroke, that the head of the unfortunate
girl was severed in two.—Edinburgh Advertiser.
A private letter from Paris says—The " Re-
public" is quite a standing joke here. There is a carica-
ture of a female on the top of the Column Vendome, and
another at the foot, crying out in the Blutbeard style—
" Ann, sister Ann, do you are the Republic coming ?"
" I see nothing but a cloud of dust, and a tri,coloured flag
waving in the midst."—" Oh ! for God's sake come down,
sister Ann, for depend upon it that's the Republic."
SUICIDE BY A FEMALE.—An inquest was
held at the Wheat-sheaf, Pratt-place, Camden-town, be-
fore Mr. STIRLING, the Coroner, on the body of Mrs.
MARY DALZIELL, aged between sixty and seventy years,
many years a resident at No. 10, Pratt-place, Camden-
town, who, on Tuesday morning, (luring the temporary
absence of her servant girl, cut her throat with a carving-
knife, and died immediately. She was in good circum-
stances, but had latterly been very much depressed in her
mind by some law-suit, and she fancied she should soon
become so poor as to be obliged to take shelter in a work-
house. Verdict—lnsanity.

FRANCE.

TO TII4 .;EDITOR OF THE MORNING

CHRONICLE.

Paris, June 15, 1831.

called your attention yesterday to the
" Mission of the Emperor Nicholas." I pointed out
to you the menacing article which appeared in the
journal Politique et Litteraire of St. Petersburgh,
of the 28th of May. I did so not merely because
it was direct evidence of the intentions of the Coutt
of St. Petersburgh, and because it was a candid
statement of the system of absolutism, but I did so
because I knew it had attracted the attent;on of the
French Government, and because even M. Perier
had been known to declare that " such menace could
not be tolerated." You will remember that the
Russian Government was stated to have charged
itself with the task of reducing everything to
order," to " legitimate Government," and to what
is called " true liberty !" in Europe; and Frante
was so evidently pointed at by the Russian despot,
that even M. Casimir Perier felt d flush of indig-
nation as he read the insolent Manifesto. It was
quite evident even to a just milieu Administraticn,
that the Russian Government meant first to attack
Poland, then Belgium, and finally France. After
two discussions in the Council of Ministers, it was
resolved to demand the most full and prompt ex-
planations from the Russian Government; and the
Moniteur of this morning contains the following
official notification of this most important and inte-
resting fact :

" An article was published in the Journal Paitiittd
et Litteraire of St. Petersburgh, of the 28th ef May.—
It is of a nature to render necessiry explanations the most
prompt, frank, and complete. These explanations have
been demanded."

This is laconic enough, to be sure ; but the fact
remains. The Russian Government has been re-
quired by the Government of Louis Philip to state
what it thinks of the revolution of July—what are
its feelings towards it—what the Russian Govern-
ment thinks to be its duty and mission with respect
to it—and, finally, whether it has any intention, in
any event, of attacking it ? It is added, that this
demand will be at length accompanied by a protest
in favour of the Poles, and by the expression of a
desire on the part of Louis Philip, that the hos-
tilities may cease, and that the independence of
Poland may be recognised by the Court of St.
Petersburgh. It is a lamentable circumstance that
a similar demand, and a similar protest were not
made some months since. They would have pre-
vented the massacre of the Poles—would have led
to a clear understanding of the position of our Re-
volution with reference both to Russia, Prussia, and
Austria, and would have rendered unnecessary the
late exhibition of popular feeling and national opinion
at Metz.

I have thus given a fair, and I hope correct, state-
ment of the real intentions of the French Govern-
ment—of M. Casimir Perier and his friends—and I
trust that, when we know a little more about the
negociations now going on, France will be surprised
and delighted to find that I have stated no more
than the truth. I say surprised, because, whilst I,
thus give a favourable, though, I believe honest,
version of this article in the Moniteur, there are
others who are ordinarily well informed—who know
well the system of our President of the Council—
and who, like myself, have some insight into what
is going on behind the scenes—who assure me that '
this article in the Alloniteur means nothing—that it
is only so many words—that Pozzo di Borgo will
assure Horace Sebastiani, that although the article
in question was of course seen by the Censor in
St. Petersburgh, it was not a Government Mani-
festo ; that whilst it is true that it spoke of the
events of the last ten months as sad and horrible,
it only meant to apply itself to the state of affairs in
Belgium and Poland, and that the circumstance of
hits remaining at Paris shows the friendly disposition
of the Emperor his master. And then it is said
that M. Sebastiani is to be satisfied, and that the
public is to be assured that the French Govern-
ment has received the most satisfactory explanations
front the Court of St. Petersburgh. Should these
predictions be realized, you will hear what France
will say.

I regret to he obliged again to call your attention
to the memorable events which have recently tran-
spired at Metz. Since I wrote yesterday other
facts have arrived, and to them it is necessary to
refer. The address of the National Guards, which
was not received by, the King, was adopted with
unanimity. This is most important. It prayed
for the abolition of the Hereditary Peerage, and the
establishment of free institutions ; and then it went
on to say, " Two people, imitating the noble
example we set them in July, have since Sire, pro-
claimed their independence. The good sense of
the public in France has rightly judged that their
cause is ours, and that our dearest interests com-
mand us to contribute, in an efficacions manner, to
assure to them their rights." The address then
complimented the hero of Jemappes and Valmy,
and stated that the Citizen King could not do other-
wise than feel that 1:o him were entrusted the na-
tional honour and glory. It appears that a copy of
this Address had been previously communicated to
Louis Philip, and that he had protested to the
Mayor against its reception. The Moniteztr of yes-
terday endeavoured to make it appear that
the officer who presented the Address did
not do so in his official character. This was
a subterfuge. The Commandant was a Ger-
man, and not speaking the French language with
sufficient fluency, he had requested the officer in
question to be his representative. He consented,
the National Guards of Metz appeared to be heard
—and Louis Philip was counselled to refuse the ad-
dress, and dismiss the brave men from his presence.
This was indeed intemperate, ill-advised, and even
unconstitutional. If we have gained any one thing
by our revolution more clearly than another, it is the
right of being heard ; and if, after the events of
July, the National Guards of the kingdom are to be
told that they ace only to obey like paid soldiers, and
not to deliberate or discuss, why then the (lay will
come when Louis Philip will appeal in vain, and he
will ask where are the Guards ? and echo will
answer where are the Guards ? What Was the
consequence of this reply ? Why, the officers of
the National Guards met—discussed the propriety
of presenting another address ; and then, by a ma-
jority of eighty-six to forty, resolved that no altera-
tion whatever should be made. lam assured in a
letter from Metz, that the King, after this decision
of the officers, felt the awkwardness of his position
—the danger of leaving so important a place with
no National Guards to defend his Throne, and
having no friends among the people—and that he
intimated his desire to receive the address as origi-
nally prepared. But lam also told that this wish
was expressed too late—that the Guards declined
the presentation—and that Louis Philip was ex-
pected to proceed on his route, without a cheer or
en adieu from those who have adopted the revolu-
tion,but with it all its consequences, both at home
and abroad.
At the memorable review of the National Guards
of Paris by the Ex-King of France, Charles X.,
after which he dis3olved the Institution by Royal
Ordinance, when the Guards at the review presented
him addresses expressive of their political wants and
sentiments, he was fool;s.h enough to say, " Je suis
venu lei
,pour recevoir des hommages, et non
pas des
lemons Poor old man, when he afterwards
would
have been glad to have had the lessons as well as
the support of the National Guards, they were nots
there to assist him, and his cortege advanced from
Paris w Cherbourg ! I will not say more ! I hope
Louis Philip will at length open his eyes. lie must
march with the revolution, or, if not, there are
other routes out of France than by Cherbourg, and
perhaps the National Guard of Metz might be
charged to conduct him in safety to the frontiers of
Prussia. Yes, believe me or not, I tell you gravely
that France will not permit herself to be cajoled
out of the revolution of 1830.
Your obedient servant,

FRENCM PAPERS.

(From the Messager des Chambres of Thursday.)

(EXTAUT Oi • A Pais,Atit LETTER.)
Patst, itni:z9..--;-the btanA corvette has arrived
at tirest. This vesset hatihdil sent to Omoa, to notify
to the GoveihMent 4:4 the Republic Of Central America
that the King of the French, recognizing in principle the
independence of that state, wes inclined to conclude with
it a treaty of amity, commerce, and navigation. This
proposal wa..t acceded to with great willingness. It is
imrostible to describe the enthusiasm which the events of
1830 have caused in Guatemala. At the flrst news that
was received of them in that country a salute of 101
guns was fired ; for three days were ordered ;
the thee_tre3 *ere. opened gratis;. it was resolved that a
dtpUtation should be sent to Paris to complirkirt the
King of the French. A great numlAr of citizens put on
French cockades, and the ladies still wear on holvdays a
tri-coloured ertli.e. On the news of the arrival of the
Dirmt) salutes were fired for three days successively.
The French flag has every where been te&ived in the most
flattering manner. The offiv_•ere of the corvette were par-
ticularly satisfied with their intercourse with the autho-
rities and the inhabitants of Truxillo and Omoa. On her
rettn n to France, the Diana put into the roads of Hamp-
ton, in the United States. She was the trst man-of-war
that has appeared on that oat since our glorious revolu-
tion. The French oitcers were warmly received, and
loaded with attention and politeness.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _

It would be difficult to relate all that the Americans did
to prove their sympatht ; etet.y thing showed that there,
as in central Americtj tne wish of the people is in favour
of France fret and powerful, These people see in this a
security tor themselves instead of a cause of fear, and take
pleasure in manifesting their sentiments.
(From the Naffonal of Wednesday.)

Touter, MIKE 9.---The battalion of the 17th Regi-
ment or the line, which was sent to this town to be em-
barked on board the squadron, had returned to its canton-
ments ; but yesterday it was again marched hither, and
embarked on board the ships of the line and the frigates)
as well as a detachment of the 21st, which is going to
complete the battalions of that regiment bow in garrison
at Modena! and Navarin; th► 3. squadron is composed of
five ships of the line) the Diana and Pallas frigates,
and the Perts corvette. The Resolue and Ipliigenij
frigates will join them in a few days ; they will have on
board the depot of the 21st, and twO battalions, which
are to arrive here on the Itth inst. These circumstances
taken together leave no doubt of the destination of the
squadron it may now be affirmed that it is going to the
LeVant. It is announced that it will join the English
squadron at Malta, which is composed of fifteen sail. On
the other hand, it iv said that the fleet which has sailed
from the Dardanelles is Turkish and Rumian, and that
there lb a treaty between the Emperor Nicholas and the
:Sultan, by which Greece is to be replaced under the do-
minion of the latter despot. The honour both of France
and England is deeply interested in this affair. It is to
be desired that these interventions may he favourable to
the Greeks. The squadron will sail to-day if the weather
permits.
It is affirmed that the English Admiral will command
the combined squadrons of France and England.
As I am concluding my letter, (half-past six,) the squa-
dron is still in the roads, and does not seem likely to get
out to-day : the wind continues to be very violent.

LORD CECIL.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SIR,—In your Paper arrived this evening, I found the
correspondence DE COMBAT, ENTRE MI LORD CECIL and
Mr. Tennyson. This correspondence brings to my recol-
lection an anecdote of the year of the " RADICAL Wax."
My Lord Cecil was then, I think, a subaltern, or inferior
officer, in the Hussars, just arrived in the city, and aged,
I think, about 17 years. On the first arrival of the Hus-
sars the LORD PROVOST, then the Hon. Henry Monteath,
of Carstairs, waited, as customary, upon the regiment to
pay his respects, in the name of the citizens of Glasgow,
and was received as their chief Magistrate, by the whole
of the officers, standing, with the exception of my Lord
Cecil. After the interview, the LORD PROVOST inquired
who the sitting officer might be, and being informed, ex-
claimed, " 0, I thought it must be some young sprig of
Nobility!"
But, mark, how my young Lord of Cecil was after-
wards humbled. Wishing to enjoy the sports of the field,
and retire a while from Glasgow wearers, the Salt-mar-
ket, and Gallowgate, in which he found no comfort, he
intimated to the same Lord Provost, whom he had so much
insulted, his wish to spend a week or two upon the est ate
of the Lord Chief Justice Clerk, his Grace the Duke of
Montrose, Lord Chancellor of the Glasgow College, &c.
&c. ; hut my Lord Provost very properly refused to
allow him to leave, saying, " in such times it behoved
every one serving his Majesty, and receiving his pay, to he
at his post of duty."
What a pugnacious roan YOUNG CECIL must be.—
Verily, he beats O'Gorman Mahon ! ! I wonder it Lord
Exeter set him on. Your's truly and admiringly,

Every one here admires the conduct of Colonel Mo-
berly. He is esteemed as " a friend indeed."

DINNER TO LORD THOMAS CECIL AND

COLONEL CHAPLIN.

Lord Thomas Cecil and Col. Chaplin were invited
by their friends in this borough to a public dinner,
at Standwell's Hotel, on Tuesday last.
About eighty gentlemen of Stamford sat down to
table; Mr. Alderman Simpson acted as President,
and Mr. Alderman Gilchrist as Vice-President, upon
the occasion.

After the cloth had been removed, and the usual
toasts drunk, the Chairman proposed the health of
" Lord Thomas Cecil," which was received with the
warmest demonstrations of enthusiasm.
Lord THOMAS CECIL then rose and addressed the
company :—Gentlemen, when I observe a company,
combining so much of talent, wealth, and influence,
I cannot feel any great degree of envy for the boasted
triumph of our opponents.—(Loud cheers.) (Lord
Cecil then alluded to the published correspondence
which had taken place between him and Mr. Ten-
nyson, 'after which the Noble Lord minutely reca.
pitulated all the circumstances that led to that cor-
respondence.) Lord Cecil then concluded as fol-
lows :—I will not trouble you with further details—
suffice it to say, that the result was, that Mr. Ten-
nyson refused either to apologize for the expres-
sions he had used, or to giant me the only other
alternative. I have been in the habit, gentlemen,
of associating with honourable men, and I can assure
you that in all quarters in which I have mentioned
the nature of Mr. Tennyson's conduct, surprise equal
to what I myself experienced, has been mani-
fested.—(Great applause and cheers.) All parties.
arrived at one conclusion, the nature of which I leave
to you to conjecture ; but, knowing as you do the
whole circumstances of the case, I am sure that con-
jecture will be one of no difficulty.—(Long con-
tinued applause.) To those unacquainted with the
interests and recent history of this borough, it may
appear surprising that I should have taken up this
matter with so much earnestness ; but, gentlemen,
if we reflect for a moment, that ever since Mr.
Tennyson came into this town, a system of hostility
to my family, expressed for the most part in terms
of the grossest nature, has been carried on, and made
the principal instrument of his recent, but as I be-
lieve, temporary success, I am sure that none of you
could have felt surprissd at my conduct.—(Loud
cheers.) I do not wish to indulge in any personal
animosity towards any one, and especially towards
one with whom I may be politically associated ; but
when Mr. Tennyson ma assure his constituents that
my family " have invaded the rights of the people,"
he cannot feel surprised if I take the insult as offered
to myself ; and I need scarcely add, until he has
afforded me some recompence for the insults he has
offered, all intercourse between me and Mr. Tenny-
son is at an end.—(Loud applause.) I ought to
apologize for having trespassed so long upon your
time, on a subject which is chiefly of a personal na-
ture ; but I thought it right to embrace this oppor-
i runity of assuring you that I will not tamely submit
e
CO calumny or insult—(Applause)—least of all,
gentlemen, to that calumny and insult which affects
you as weltrytshe
elfr toast..—(.Contwineureed
