PERSIA.

The Journal de Constantinople of the 14th has a
letter from Trebisond, containing the latest intelli-
gence from Persia. The Salar (one of the insurgent
chiefs) was still blockaded in Meched, and dangerously
ill. His brother-in-law, JafferKooli Khan,who headed
the Coords and Turcomans, had made hie submission,
and had gone to Teheran,where the Persian Government
had received him with high honours. The surrender
of Meched was daily expected. Sultan Moorad
Mirza, uncle to the Schah, had assumed the command-
in-chief of the Persian army ; he had carried by
storm, after a siege of 55 days, the fortress of
Sebsewar, where the sons of the Salar Emir Islam
Khan and Ilajji Mehemet Khan had retired. The
former had succeeded in making his escape. Some
chiefs of Fars had risen against the governor of that
province, Nizam Eddoolet Hussein Khan, to avoid
the payment of 800,000 tomaums of taxes (forty
millions of francs), in arrear for the last 18 months,
and also to declare the independence of Fars.
liajji Kawane, Beghibeg of Shiraz, and the Ilbeghi
of the wandering tribes of Fars, were at the head of

Shiraz, a building which scarcely deserves that
name, as it is open almost on every side and com-
mar ded by the houses around. Its garrison consisted
of 500 able men only, who however contrived, by
prodigies of valour, to hold out for 118 days, and
but istely surrendered, in consequence of the want
of provisions."

DEATH FROM DROWNING.—A fatal accident oc-
curred on Wednesday morning to a young man who
was in the employ of Alcssis. Simpkiu and Algrshull,
booksellers, named William Taylor, who was highly
respected by all who knew him. He was bathing just
off Battersea iced-houtre, when it is supposed the cramp
seized him, and he was drowned. Two young men who
were with him tried to rescue him, and nearly lost their
lives in the attempt.

REVIEW AT SVOOLIVICH.-It is statcd on good

STAMP AND TAX-OFFICE ASSURANCE SOCIETY.—
On Thursday, the 28th inst., the dir;ctors of the above
institution gave their annual excursion on board the
G 033. Captain Hoskins, in aid of the funds, and visited
the Wellington, Captain Gordon, lying off Sheerness,
where they were kindly welcomed by the lady of the
Commander, the officers, and their wives (sickness
alone preventing the Gallant Captain receiving the
company himself), and allowed to dance on the
quarter-deck of their splendid ship. The directors
know no compliment equal to express the great gratifi •
cation all felt at the indulgence allowed them but by
publicly acknowledging it, after a day spent to the de-
light of at least 500 persons. The Gem returned to
Loudon-bridge about 10 o'clock, landing the whole of
her company in safety.
